Princess Subservient

[IsabellaRose]

Your breath shudders as you stare up at him, your pulse hammering against the place where his thumb lingers at your throat. Every instinct tells you to resist, to fight, to never kneel, but instinct won't save you now. Defiance is death. Your fingers curl into fists at your sides, but you force yourself to still them. You force yourself to breathe. The weight of his words settles over you, thick and suffocating. The world you knew is gone, your father, your home, your people, all burning in the wake of this conquest. If you fall here, there will be nothing left. No one to remember House Valoryn.

But if you live, if you survive no matter the cost, then maybe, just maybe, you'll have a chance to take something back. The thought is a whisper in your mind, dangerous and tempting. Slowly, you lower your gaze. You drop to one knee.

"I surrender," you say, forcing the words past the bitterness in your throat. They taste like ash. Like betrayal.

The knight exhales a pleased chuckle. His hand moves, fingers trailing through your hair as if you were already some tame little thing, his to command. It takes everything in you not to flinch away.

"A wise choice, Princess." His voice is rich with satisfaction, dark with promise. "You'll find that service to our king has its rewards. And serving me?" His fingers tighten in your hair, tilting your chin up so your eyes meet his. His smirk is sharp, predatory. Owning. "That has its own... privileges. Perhaps you'd like to start that service now."

Your stomach knots, but you hold his gaze as he tugs you close, your cheek pressing against the front of his armor, toward his crotch. He's testing you. Seeing how far you’ll bend, if you'll break.
