Lynda hum merrily while waiting for her sister to arrive, tapping her painted fingernails lightly on the table, enjoying varitties of sweets prepared by her maids in the palace's garden. The second Princess of Estia relish the fine relaxing weather, her mood brightening even more. She lift her cup of tea carefully and placed it on her rosey thin lips to drink. "Princess, Her highness Princess Olivia is here."Her lady-in-waiting announced. Making her lips curved into a delightful smile. Her eyes sparkled tauntingly at the sight of Olivia's wry expression painted all over her beautiful face as she close the distance between them. She knew Olivia hated to interact with her as much as she do. Scrutinizing her gaze meticulously on Olivia's apperance her smile slowly turned into a frown.She wore a lilac bodycon dress in butterfly sleeves that hugs her curve delicately just above her ankles showing not too much of her skin but her flawless swanlike neck. Her long dark s
"How does that sound Olivia?" Claude repeated after a moment of silence. It seems to him his sister have had a hard time processing his question thus looking at him with openly brewilderedment painted all over her attractive face. "Are you sure your High--Claude? aren't you busy?" after a couple of beats Olivia managed to find her voice and gradually regained her composure. Almost getting herself corrected again for using formalities over the Crown Prince's, it will take a while before she will eventually get use to it."It's fine, I also needed to relax once in a while since I took over your duty the past two nights you we're asleep." He sounded rather pleased for a someone who stayed all night to take care of her duties and that surprised Claude himself. He hated to sit in a room full of paperworks and trivial matters to resolve, it bores him. But for her, he doesn't mind one bit."That's right I'm sorry about that, you can hand them over to me now......Thank you for covering up fo
"Will you really be fine your Highness?"Susan's eyes are filled with so much concern and panic for her Princess. Olivia decided to go and find out more about her abduction three nights ago, she instructed her close maid to keep this confidential."Of course, I came back safely the last time didn't I?"She tried to coax her maid into submission but Susan's worried look didn't falter one bit. "But you're Highness.....do you really want to go? we can leave this matter to the royal guard's captain, you don't have to do this yourself""And that's the very reason why I have to do this on my own Susan, I have not recieved any news about the perpetors and it's been two days! it feels like.....they entirely closed the case without proper closure."Susan's brows furrowed in response as realization hit her. "Now that you mentioned it Princess....you're right, I've never heard any updates regarding your abductors indeed!""It appears as if they were hiding something.....to turn a blind eye just
Olivia wandered about the capital for some time now. She kept asking random strangers about the boy named Luis. It's too bad she never had the chance to see his face clearly as it will help her locate him faster knowing there are hundreds of men named Luis in the entire kingdom. Sighing in defeat, Olivia loosen her black satin cloak but not completely taking it off, even with the help of magical stone that blurs her features, she still needs to cover her face and conceal her identity in the public lest she will cause a ruckus.Olivia decided to take a break in the wooden bench under the shade of the tree near the park and decided to return to the palace immediately before anyone would take notice of her absence. Although she used the servant's passageway to reach the capital, she had learned that all the doors will be closed once the clock strikes 7 in the evening. Olivia can't risk entering in the main gate of the palace too."Pretty miss" Olivia was bought back from a daze as her ey
Amon watched her long lashes flutters as she stared at him. Her small body quivering under his touch and he somehow manage to resist the urge to embrace her then and there. He needs to be patient in order not to scare the lady, he had been patient for the past few days and now that she's right in front of him he can barely control his beast. 'Just a little longer, just a little longer' he chanted repeatedly in his mind.His gaze traveled to her small pointy nose down to her red plump lips. Amon groaned inwardly to maintain his resolution still and forget about everything and just savor her to his content. 'Fck me!' those deliciously tempting lips.....he can hear Olivia's heart thumping loudly, her complexion gradually turning red as he moved his thumb to caress her lower lip."It seems to me I am the only one who longs for us to meet?" He asks tilting his head after a long pause of silence. Olivia gulped her last remaining saliva, feeling her throat drying. She was unable to think rat
"You don't undertsand Claude, if we fail to give what they wanted, this means war! and we all know we cannot withstand against them. So stop this nonsense! I will not change my mind.""No. What you don't understand is the capability of our kingdom. There's no need to fret over unleashed wild dogs."The King scoffed at Claude's remarks. There is no way he will ever understand the man's reasoning. Clearly, Estel will fall into oblivion once the Matras get their hands on the slight possibility to annihilate them. Obviously, the King of beasts never wanted the Princess in the first place, sure she was pretty but never useful. All he wanted is to conquer another wealthy kingdom into his own."You best be prepared Claude, the King and his men will arrive in two days. If the Matra wants her, then so be it. End of discussion."He quickly turned his back to the Crown Prince as to avoid another fruitless conversation, but the crashing of furnitures inside the Crown Prince's office reached his h
"Your Majesty" Serina urge the King to maintain his composure in front of the butler. Marco's troubled expression alerted her, after all, it is rare for the King to concern himself with such trivial matters. What might be the content of the letter as to caused him to react this way? Marco's face turned dark and bothered the moment he opened the letter Earl handed. "Serina, my queen." He called her in a subdued manner without taking his eyes off the paper. "What is it? What's wrong?" Serina approached him without delay and nodded to the servant to leave. Marco lifted his face to look at his beloved, with trembling hands, he reached for her cheek. "They will reach the palace by dawn." ~~~ Olivia immediately excused herself after Claude's abrupt confession. Leaving him soak in remorse and for the first time in his life, Claude felt disappointed to himself, afraid that Olivia might distance herself from him. Seeing her disturbed reaction, Claude can tell his declara
It's early morning, the gentle spring breeze is blowing yet, no one had the luxury of enjoying the pleasant weather, everyone not just the commoners, but also the Kingdom's upper class, kept their hands and feet occupied when they heard the Matras were one beat away from the Palace. They had already arrived in the capital and will reach the third gate of the Palace soon.Words on the street and social circle are; regardless of the marital partnership, war will break out, some claim that the barbaric ruler of the beasts wants to use the Princess for political gain. Young girls strongly believe that they were brought together by fate and love. Truth be told, they pay no attention to that race before nor seen the King of Matra in flesh, having only heard of him through hearsay, he can only be described a heartless beast bearing no conscience, capable of killing without hesitation, tearing, breaking, and slicing without remorse, he is feared to be cold-blooded. His sharp intuitions and phy
A few days have already gone and Olivia received numerous invitations from different occassions. One that poked her attention was from the house of Marquis Sembre, it was the first invitation she had recieved from Sophia herself. The lady only sent letters to Claude since the beginning, thus the gesture surprised Olivia."What do you think, Princess? will you send a reply to decline her invitation?" Susan asks seeing her fumbling the paper. 'Though what a shame, I really want the Princess to have some fun outside the sun too'"No, actually, I'd like to go out" Olivia answered with resolution after a long pause. Causing her attendant to gasps in surprise."That's wonderful!" Susan clapped her hands while grinning from ear to ear. "I will pick a dress that suits your highness' taste and ready your bath immediately!"Susan was overjoyed to hear Olivia's response, it has been a while for the Princess to go out and spend time with noble ladies. She feared Olivia might be having a hard time
"I'm telling you Mors, we have to do something about his Majesty's behavior. He had gone too far this time! and where the h*ll is he?"Mors eyebrow shoot up as he watched Kalim pace back and forth. The man was restless since their meeting with the King and insisted for his and Thana's cooperation."And what do you propose we should do?" he asks while wiping his eye glasses half interested in Kalim's concern. "I'm betting my virginity on the table he's with the Princess right now" Kalim murmured "We talk to him?" his tone uncertain. Thana scoffed hearing his suggestion.She poke Kalim's forehead "And for that suggestion I deemed you a fool. What made you think he will listen to us?" Thana grab an apple and took a bite "Stop talking nonsense Kalim we all know you're not a virgin" Her lips twist into an amused smirk."It's cute how they think a childish stunt can harm us, pathetic" she reckoned examining the fruit."Leave them be, we'll let them think they've had us dancing in their pa
"You wait here, a mere servant like yourself is not qualified to enter my chamber" Lynda eyed Kalim, she then instructed her maids to give her and Amon a privacy.The Matra scoffed but nevertheless stood outside the Princess' room and wondered, what could have gotten to his king for accepting the Princess' invitation? surely it was a trap to seduce Amon. Kalim felt a slight thrill for what was about to happen."Please have some tea, your Majesty""I refuse" Amon turned her down bluntly, she sat across him face to face and it excites Lynda seeing how he actually followed her here, she knew it! no man can resist her seductive charms! Even her oh so perfect sister Olivia cannot tame a beast if a goddess like herself were to appear."Is that so? then please tell me what you--""Cut to the chase, what do you want?"Lynda let out a chuckle, he sure is sharp, so d*mn sexy! "Well your Majesty, I want you" crossing her legs, Lynda purposely lifted her legs higher to expose her skin. she leaned
Olivia approached the garden wryly, Amon's attendant Thana came bearing a news that her King wants to meet in the garden. That was the second time she met the Matra lady up close, the first time was when Amon ordered her to accompany Olivia back in her palace on his behalf, Thana was silent and neutral, Olivia barely saw her smiling."You're here" Amon approached, gentlemaningly pulled the chair for her. She wondered what had happened to him last night that he failed to come to her but she quickly dismissed the thought."Yes, what is it you wish to tell me?" He never failed to take her breath away, though he was dressed modestly his drool worthy build made it appear as though he was a greek god, such strong features basked under the sun is truly a sight to be hold! "I know you are eager to learn about your abduction" Amon's gaze drop from her eyes to her heavy breast tracing it's way up to Olivia's collarbone."Very, is that the reason why you called for me?" Olivia felt uneasy under
Dumbfounded, Claude graze the railing for support as he felt his knees started to jelly, Amon watched his complexion gradually turned pale, his calm vibrations suddenly turned cold "You may have sucessfully fooled the entire kingdom but not me young Prince" his voice was deep emphasizing the word 'Prince', gone now the gentle and warm tone he used around Olivia."What do you really want?" Claude ask still shaken. He couldn't believe this day would come sooner than anticipated, how could this happen? this is ridiculous!"Not much, just your cooperation" Amon shrug his beefy shoulders as his taunting eyes bore an impression of domination to the Prince. Diyan's voice echoed in his ears, it was just like he said, they were no match from him, he truly is beyond their league."Concerning?" By degrees, Claude's power of speech returned. Amon leveled his body to Claude's, eyes piercing with venom. "I want my marriage with Olivia to go smoothly and for that to happen--" He paused displaying a w
Lynda couldn't keep her eyes to herself either. That man! that man is my sister's husband? How could this be? they are supposed to look hideous! Matras are half beast, they should atleast possess large fury tails, long sharp nails and scales! How come....how come Olivia always gets the best? this is so unfair!How can there be a man exude such sexiness and grace at the same time just by drinking a glass of wine? she watched his every moves, the way his red lips chewed meat, sips wine, greets nobles, he's so perfect in everything that he does! there's no way he is a human! He even fits in instantly!With that unreal look and charisma he's definitely someone who's being cursed by countless cuckold lovers and husbands and worshipped by too many women! Goodness! definitely a dangerous creature!"I noticed you staring at your sister's potential husband for a long time now" Claude's voice was cold as usual but there was a hint of mischief in it.Lynda's cheeks flushed as she fixed the invisi
