Chapter 118 Thirty-seven

• Zara inwardly thanked the stars that his lower body was submerged in water inside a huge golden bath basin. Though that didn't stop her anxiety from growing. Until now, king Luther hadn't touched her sexually or made any attempt to do so. However now that they were married she knew laying with him was inevitable.
• "Come, bath me,"the king ordered, picking up the wash cloth beside him and handing it to Zara who reluctantly accepted it, crouching down beside him to bathe him.
• Zara knew the king did not trust her. He couldn't possibly trust her so easily but then it had been the same when she first married Carl. They hated each other, yet grew to love each other so deeply. No one could ever take the place of Carl in her heart however, she was going to act like a dutiful wife and win the heart of this monster. It was a difficult task but certainly not impossible.
