“Would you like to contest this in an open court with a jury, or would you rather leave this room with your punishment, and no one knows what happened here?” Kael asks.

“Fine. The cage, I guess,” he says.

“I was hoping you’d pick that,” he laughs and reaches into the bag they brought with them. He pulls out the cage and hands it to Morwen. “Put it on.”

“Now?” he asks.

“Or I can let Leli do it,” Kael shrugs.

Morwen is seething but does as he’s been told. The ring is secured around his testicles while the cage is attached, securing his penis and locked into place. When he pulls his pants back up, I laugh.

“I’m sorry,” I say through my laughter, which triggers Leli to start laughing.

“I can’t breathe,” she wheezes.

“Keep going,” I say when I get myself to stop laughing. “I’m sorry. I just can’t believe how well thought out this was.”

“You like that?” Daemon asks with a smirk.

“That’s hilarious,” I say.

“Now… Janitor,” Callum says with a conniving smile. “Go clean up after your queen.”

“Excuse me? That’s…”

“An order from a superior,” I say. “I’d advise you to do as you are told. There’s no telling what they’ll pull out of that bag next.”

“How do…”

“Get on your hands and knees and go clean up the mess,” Kael says.

“You can’t possibly mean…”

“With your mouth,” Kael continues. “Now. I don’t like repeating myself.”

When his shoulders slump in defeat and he walks toward his desk, I slap my hand over my mouth to keep from laughing out loud. We stand around and watch the once esteemed Mayor, Brion Morwen, lick our come off the tile floor. Leli looks happy as can be at the sight of our rapist on the ground cleaning up after me.

When he has lapped up all the fluids, Daemon breaks the silence. “Now get your shit and get the fuck out of my building,” he says. “If I get one more complaint, past or future, I’ll have you hanged on the steps of City Hall.”

Morwen doesn’t say another word or make eye contact as he grabs his personal items and goes to the door. He hesitates for a moment, as if wanting to say something, but continues out of the door.

“Thank you,” I say.

“It was our pleasure to give you both some sort of justice,” Kael says as he kisses me. “Although, ripping his head off would have been more fun.”

“I think this way was pretty fun,” Daemon says with a smile before kissing me.

“Ready to introduce our new queen?” Callum says. “Press should be waiting.”

“So they’re going to see Morwen walk out?” I ask.

“They sure are,” Callum says with a grin.

“Let’s do this,” I say happily.

We all go outside, and the steps leading to City Hall are swarming with members of the press. I hear chatter of people talking about the new queen and wondering who I am. Everyone is looking at me, and they look happy to see that I am with Daemon, Callum, and Kael.

“Ready?” Kael asks me.
