They spent time walking around the garden and Leon showed her a few special plants that had bloomed when the curse was made. "I think this is the best day of my life," Lillith said as she brushed her fingers over red tulips as she walked across the gardens. "Are they grown by people or it just started growing?" "Still effects from the curse," Leon said as he came to stand behind her. "Wow. It looks really organized. You would think it was intricately planted by farmers," She said. She felt like she was standing in a maze of a red flower garden. She looked around her and closed her eyes as she inhaled deeply. She took in the scent of the flowers, combined into a beautiful essence that wafted into her nose. When she finally opened her eyes she caught Leon staring at her with a smile. She had always seen him stare at her like she was the most precious thing in this world but this one had been unexpected and she couldn't even look him in the eyes. A blush crept up
"I wanted to tell you something but I forgot entirely." Leon said as they walked slowly into the palace. They were holding hands and the guards and maids were surprised to see them both. No one believed he was ever going to soften towards Lillith. "And what's that?" Lillith asked as she swung his arm back and forth. "There will be a ritual held tomorrow before the coronation in two days," He said. They stopped at the base of the ornate steps. "You're to be by my side so we can both be cleansed before the coronation." Sometimes, Lillith couldn't believe she was actually going to be Queen soon. It had been a long ride for the whole year and things were going the way she hadn't expected it to go. "This feels like a dream," She said with a laugh. He smiled and brushed her hair behind her ear. It was something he loved to do. "Of course, it does feel like a dream. But it's your place and no one is going to take it from you. I want you to know that." She smiled a
Candles. Bright lights. Lights hitting glass and metal and causing a beautiful amber beam to fill the area. A large table she hadn't seen here before was stationed in the middle of the large space and the table was covered in candle lights. A flower vase was situated in the middle of the table right beside a metal bucket. A wine bottle poked out of the bucket. She sighed and brought her hand to her chest when she saw how the table was filled with so much food. A card lay at the middle of the table. The guard smiled at her before shutting the door behind her. She took the steps down and looked around. "This is absolutely beautiful. How long did it take to set this place up?" "Just an hour and two hours of cooking." She turned to see Leon standing at the other side of the clearing. He was dressed in a robe and breeches and shirtless underneath. His hair fell in tufts on his forehead and a side sad slicked back. He held a bouquet of roses in his hand. She took
Lillith stood naked before him. He had locked the door after instructing a guard that no one was to come close to the door. He came back to where she stood naked as she waited for him and pushed the plates aside to make space for him to lay her across the table. As soon as he was done, he walked back to her and lifted her off the table. He placed her on the table so her breasts were facing the air. She turned on her side and watched as he pulled out a seat in front of her. She smiled and touched his face when he finally settled down before her. "You really are smitten, Leon. I thought you were going to turn my idea down and request that we had normal dinner." He laughed and leaned over to pick up a plate of olives. His arm brushed her thigh in the process and she sucked in a sharp breath. He finally settled down. "You call this abnormal then? This style of dinner we are having?" She laughed and shook her head. "Not at all. I think this is an unconventional way to ha
Gods, she loved when he became so dominating and controlling. She loved to see that look creep into his eyes. Her hands were planted behind her on the table as she stared up at him. His fingers were still wrapped around her neck and his other was on her hip, pulling her away from the table. She placed her hands on his hip to hold herself in place as he lowered his head to kiss her. He kissed her with everything he had in him, not stopping even when she tried to catch her breath. He wanted her. All of her. He lifted her off the floor again and walked over to the other side of the clearing. It was a wall demarcating the palace from the woods behind it and her back pressed against the cold walls. "Tell me your fantasies. What have you thought of me doing to you because I have thought about it a lot." She bit her lower lip and he groaned as he groin himself against her. She arched her hips towards him and splayed her fingers behind his back. "I've thought of you fucking me
Lillith lay flat on the table. She was spent from being constantly rammed into and yet, she throbbed more for him. Her hand reached out towards his cock and she began to stroke softly. She maintained eye contact with him, not minding if he was finding it hard to actually sit properly. "Lillith, I am sleepy and you have drained out my soul. What do you want from me again?" "Your soul in particular. Since it is useless, why don't I make it complete?" He threw his head back and laughed. "You're becoming witty as the day goes by. Where do you learn all of these from?" She shrugged. "Instinct?" He raised a brow in askance. His eyes narrowed like he didn't believe her. "I doubt that." She sat up on one elbow and looked at him. "So what do you think then, Alpha Leon?" "That you're lying to me. That's the only tangible explanation." "And what is your definition of the truth?" "You have met other men and they have corrupted you." Lillith began to lau
Lillith took the small purse from Cali's hand. "Make sure you look after him, okay?" "This is like telling his mother not to leave him hanging," Cali said and folded her arms as she rolled her eyes to the back. "Hurry along, he'll be fine." She left the room and walked down the corridor, noticing that it was quite empty. She guessed it was because of the ritual. She was taken by surprise when she got to the gallery. There was a line from the door to the last step and Leon was standing there. They were all dressed in white clothing, save for Delilah who has a crimson dress on. Lillith began to take slow steps down till she finally got to the base of the steps and before she took Leon's hand in hers, a shaman stepped forward and rubbed a sticky substance on her forehead. She gave Leon a look but he was mute. He finally took her hands and the procession began. Now, they were the last to leave the door. "Is something drastic going to happen?" She asked
Leon stopped in his tracks. He didn't miss the word Lucien used when he saw Melissa. He raised his hand and stopped the guards from moving before he turned to Lucien. "What did you just say?" Melissa, whose head dangled below her neck, looked up to see Lucien staring at her intently. She had never been looked at like that and this was her first time seeing this man. He was really good looking, a few inches shorter than Leon with fairer hair. He didn't have that dark aura that Leon had. She felt a zing of pleasure shoot up through her as she stared into his eyes and that was when he knew that she was mated to him. "She is my mate," Lucien replied. Leon cocked his head to the side. "And how do I believe that you are telling the truth?" "What do you mean?" Lucien asked with a frown. "Melissa has always been a cunning woman. This might be to rescue her from being executed. Nobody knows if this was planned so how do I believe you both are really mated to ea
So it was settled. Lucien had found his mate and Melissa's life had been saved by chance. Lucien had dropped every grudge he had against Leon and both of them became friends again. It was a beautiful sight for Lillith because she never knew there was ever going to be a time where they both decided to reconcile. As for Melissa, she was yet to forgive her. After what she had done, it had been traumatizing so they stood at the side as both men hugged and when Melissa tried to talk to Lillith, she was immediately told that she wasn't ready for her apology. They both left and things went back to normal. The war ended and people spent their time cleaning up the Palace and getting ready for the Coronation. Liliith had gone up to her room when Leon was called upon to attend to an urgent matter. She didn't want to look like she was desperate for his presence. But those words he had said to her before they were interrupted lingered. He loved her? She laughed at herse
