Chapter 11: Meeting The King
Venus remained inside the carriage even though she felt everyone was ready to greet the king. She could hear men dismounting their horses, and the maid was also outside. When she presents herself to the king, she must be fresh and beautiful. Lilet sprayed her favorite Bulgari perfume from her world to freshen her up.
Lilet even changed her shoes into designer's beaded silver heels. The door swung open, just like in the movies. For added suspense, the woman displayed her shoes first before exiting the car. The Lord of South East doubted the maid because she dressed extravagantly just to greet them, and she believes the king will be pleased to see her.
She can see that all eyes were on her as she tried to move gracefully in her purple gown. But before she could make her vow to the king, she was yanked from where she was and dragged to someone's body.
That someone was, of course, the king, whose furious eyes slanted. He growled and looked at the men who were supposed to be greeted warmly by the host, but instead he howled at them. The piercing sound made her flinch.
The Lord of the South East and his brother were among the men who knelt. The maid knelt behind her, trembling.
He kissed her in front of them, much to her surprise. And it was as if the floodgates of her desire had opened. She'd never been kissed like this before, in fact, she'd never been kissed at all. His mouth became hot, hungry, and demanding, his tongue thrusting with a feral possessiveness to reassert territory. She desired more. When he growled to look at her, she cradled his face in her hands and pulled him down, kissing him as passionately as her satiated body would allow.
She couldn't believe how quickly he'd piqued her interest, and how easily he seemed to do it again. It appeared that her proximity to him was all she needed to ignite. She found herself hot, bothered, and turning toward him once more. She considered herself to be cold. Perhaps she was so surrounded by androids that she forgot about her sensuality.
"You're such a good kisser, my king," she laughed. "I forgot about myself," she admitted.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked, his brow furrowed.
"Yes, I heard about you yesterday," she said, avoiding his gaze." He looked at her for a few moments before turning to the men and motioning them to rise.
"I hope my favorite honored you by welcoming you all," he said, his face grave, seem like if one of them gave the wrong answer, their life would be lost.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Her Highness provided fun entertainment for me and my men with the company of lady wanderers, fine drinks, and food," the Lord of South East responded.
The king frowned and turned to face the Lord's brother, who bowed and smiled. "I am grateful that the queen sent Her Highness to greet His Lordship and me. Her Highness lavished us with her generosity, giving us the warmest welcome we'd ever received."
In silence, the king addressed the queen's personal maid. The maid nodded, her lips trembling. "Let's go to the palace now," he said, his face solemn. Venus was attempting to read his face but was unable to do so.
Was he upset?
The king nodded to Luke, who also bowed. Seeing Luke with her seemed to calm him down. Instead of returning to her carriage, the king observed the absence of royal insignia. She addressed the maid and warned her.
"If I ever see my favorite riding this garbage again, I will have your head chopped off." The maid nodded shakily, thinking that it would be harsh for such a minor offense. She rode in front of him on his horse. She senses the king kissing her nape.
"Your scent is driving me insane," he whispered. She smiled, Lilet was great at getting her ready for anything, even this.
Then he lowered his mouth to hers, and she stopped thinking about perfume. She couldn't stop thinking about his kiss, how his tongue slowly outlined her lips, his hand cupping her cheek, and his thumb stroking near the corner of her mouth until it became part of the kiss. He slipped his tongue between her parted lips as she sighed, eagerly exploring her mouth with bold sweeps that dared to leave no part untouched.
Her tongue returned the favor, darting and teasing, getting to know the shape, texture, and taste of his mouth. "You tasted of sweet, some wine, and raspberry," she said, referring to the wine she'd had for lunch and the chocolate cake she'd had for dessert. Even the warriors were not familiar with this type of dessert and they adored it. And she found herself laughing at how sweet it was.
"Just what a man wants to hear when he's trying to seduce a woman," he grumbled. "Laughter."
She wrapped her arm around his shoulder and pressed her hand to the back of his head before he could flee. "I adore chocolate, I want you to eat it too so I could taste it on your mouth. During lunch, the men enjoyed it as well..."
"Don't mention them, and don't share chocolates with them," he growled. I should be the first person to taste it. "Is it a northern dish?" he wondered aloud. She simply nodded; how could she explain that the dish came from her world? He smiled, a lovely self-satisfied grin. He leaned in and kissed the corner of her mouth.
Smiling, she twisted her head to meet his mouth squarely, kissing him as passionately as he had her only moments before. They had no idea they were now in front of the palace. The queen swallowed and smiled sweetly at them, as if she hadn't sent her outside the maid gate without protection.
The king was enraged, and all he did was nod at her. The queen's jealousy towards her is palpable. Was she surprised to find herself alive and, worse, with the king?
The king assisted her in dismounting from his horse. She took his hand and clasped it tightly as she absentmindedly looked at the queen. The king pressed her small hand inside his, as if he understood her predicament.
"Bring my visitor to the hall and show them their guest chambers," he said to the palace headmaster. The man bowed and walked over to the visitors, directing them to the hallway.
The queen together with her maids were waiting for the king's attention.
"His Majesty's in-heat period is approaching, I will prepare your concubines and bring them to your chambers," the queen says, her voice tinged with excitement. Was she hoping the king would ask her to accompany him?
In-heat period? She remembered that wolves go through a phase where they have an insatiable desire to mate for days on end. However, in her world, most she-wolves go through this phase. She weighed it against adding another burden to the female population. She didn't have this kind of experience because she was altered. She ca explore on her sensuality but she refused.
"No, I only need my favorite with me. Her maid will prepare her for me tonight. I don't need anyone else and see to it that we will not be disturbed for seven days," he said.
Seven days? My goodness! She looked at the king with horror as the queen was also in shock by his decision. Lilet prepared for this kind if intimacy with man. She even suggested many times to use Luke to pacify her curiosity and explore her sensuality.
"You know I don't have experience on this," she leaned against the king. "I am is NBSB, and I believe you are looking for someone with experience to satisfy your ravenous need to mate, it's definitely not me," she said in lowered voice.
"What exactly is NBSB?" He frowned and whispered back.
"No boyfriend since birth... it means..." she responded awkwardly, unsure how to proceed. The king laughed merrily, much to her and the queen's surprise, and even looked up and threw his shoulder up laughing. As the queen heard them, she looked down and stared at him intently. "I will teach you my goddess," he said softly.
Wolves have more acute senses and she intentionally did it. She'll start the bitching game now
