UNEXPECTED CIRCUMSTANCES by Shay Savage

Book 5: The Concubine

  51V0gBqgDPL
SYNOPSIS:
Royalty requires sacrifice.
As King Camden’s health declines, the need for an heir becomes crucial, impossible to ignore. With no other viable choice, Alexandra must stand stoically by when Hadley comes to the court of Silverhelm as Branford’s concubine. The queen’s edict of duty echoes through Alexandra’s mind as she accepts the loathsome conditions for the sake of the kingdom. The only person more devastated by the circumstances is Branford himself. As Branford spurns Alexandra’s affections and King Edgar continues to press his post-war advantage, all seems lost to the young couple. Treachery still lies deep within the castle of Silverhelm, and the revelation of the traitor will come from the least likely of sources.

Excerpt:

“I am a coward,” he whispered. “Branford…no.” I took a step toward him. “I am,” he said. “I’m a coward and an idiot. Alexandra, please…hear me out.” I closed my eyes for a moment and nodded. “I have hurt you,” he stated. “It was not my intent, yet it happened anyway. “You barely spoke to me,” I replied as I turned my head and closed my eyes tightly. “You would not have wanted me here,” he said quietly. “I have been…” He stopped and sighed heavily, approached me, and dropped back to his knees. I looked down to see him once again and reached out to touch his rough cheek. “I wanted you here,” I said. He shook his head. “I am…” Branford paused, and when my fingers brushed his face, I could feel his jaw clenched tightly. “I am afraid. Afraid for you. I brought you into my world to insult King Edgar, and insult him I have, but he does not intend to take the insult out on me and my army. He plans to take it out on you. I have put you in terrible danger out of arrogance and lust for revenge.” He grasped his thighs as he looked up into my eyes. “I never should have brought you here,” he whispered vehemently. “You are in peril, and it is my fault! I am to blame! How can you look at me, knowing I did this to you? Now that you know what he will do if I do not have an heir soon or if I refuse Whitney next month—he will not just…just kill you.” He stopped speaking abruptly, and I could sense the pounding of his heart in his chest and see the panic in his eyes. “I did not want you to hear him speak such things,” he said. “He has said worse,” I said, presuming. “He has.” I saw and felt his anger blaze in his eyes. “I will not allow you to be touched, my wife. I would…I would sacrifice my kingdom before I would allow that to happen.” “Branford, you cannot—” “I can!” His eyes blazed. “I would sacrifice all of them before I would let him touch you!” UC5 teaser 3
