That Prince Is A Girl: The Vicious King’s Slave Mate Novel

Chapter 6: Aekeira's voice was gentle, soothing, giving Emeriel no choice but to follow its sound.

Aekeira continued rubbing his back. "Good girl. That's my girl."

Two Urekai came in and forced them to take an unknown pill.

Surely, they hadn't paid all that money just to kill them before they even became slaves, right? Emeriel thought as he swallowed it. Minutes later, they both dropped unconscious on the floor.

Much later, Emeriel woke to the bumping ride of the carriage. His head woozy, his senses disoriented as he blinked several times to adjust his vision.

They had been forced to take a pill.

Rising, Emeriel walked to the carriage's wooden window and pushed it open. A gasp escaped him.

They were in Urekai land. Emeriel could see dozens of them.

But what left his jaw on the floor were the humans. There were plenty in sight, with many females nearly matching the number of males.

Everyone knew the Urekai had acquired and held numerous humans captive after the war, but the sheer number he could see surpassed his expectations.

And they were all slaves.

Some were working in the fields, their weary bodies bent under the weight of their labor. Some were hauling heavy loads, their muscles straining with each step, under the watchful eyes of the Urekai.

Some Urekai held whips, while others held swords. The sight turned Emeriel's stomach, making him sick.

Is this to be our life now?

Aekeira's groan of wakefulness echoed behind him, and Emeriel quickly turned to his sister, concern etched on his face.

"Are you alright, Kiera?" he asked, his voice hushed.

Aekeira nodded, rubbing her eyes. "Where are we?" she asked, her eyes scanning their surroundings.

"Their kingdom, Urai," Emeriel whispered, keeping his voice down so the carriage master wouldn't overhear. Together, they took in the huge fortress ahead of them.

The carriage was headed straight for it.

"This place looks highly luxurious," Aekeira remarked.

Emeriel nodded. As royalty, they were well-acquainted with luxury, but this was on an entirely different scale.

Which begged the question…

Who exactly were the males who had purchased them? And if they weren't his and his sister's masters, then who was…?

They were brought into an empty room after passing numerous chambers and passages.

"This shall be your quarters for now," a soldier announced.

The room was surprisingly spacious and tastefully decorated.

Not long after the soldiers left, the sound of approaching footsteps reached their ears, growing closer with each passing moment.

The door swung open, and an older human woman marched in, accompanied by a younger human woman and three Urekai males.

The older woman's gaze landed on Emeriel, and she did a double take. "You are one remarkably handsome male. I have seen a lot of pretty males in my time, but even I can hardly think of one who is half as pretty as you."
