Exactly the way Dexter had commanded, the results for the investigation came rolling in. Geoffrey stood before the king very early in the next morning, a scroll in his hands. Dexter had his chin on his hands, his expression grim. "Bring it here." He ordered, his voice cool as ice. Geoffrey nodded, briskly walking over to the king and passing over the scroll. "These are the list of the names of the people behind the in queen's set up." Geoffrey said as he handed it over. Dexter barely him spared him a glance as he rolled the scroll open, briefly running over the names. " Are you sure about this?" He finally asked after moments of silence. "Definitely, your majesty." Geoffrey replied, unnerved by the king's unnatural calmness. The king nodded, placing the scroll on the table. "What about the search?" "We are closing in on the knight, your majesty. He seems to be here in Madonia." Geoffrey replied. The king's eyes narrowed. " Well, find him." He gra
Hoisting her up, Maya wrapped his legs around his waist. He deepened the kiss, stealing the breath right out of her chest. Her body ignited Immediately, pleasure spreading through her veins, pooling between her thighs. He immediately undressed her and soon she was naked before him. Trailing kisses down her neck, he settled on her right breast and began sucking ardently. Maya writhed against him, her fingers buried in his hair, pushing his head against her. Moans escaped her lips as he suckled her and it only seemed to invigorate Dexter more. He released her nipple with a pop, placing her on the bed before he removed his clothes. Then he resumed kissing her, his fiery passion matching hers. Maya's hands roamed all over him, caressing and scratching. He pulled away, gazing into her eyes, his shining with lust. "Not today..." He murmured when Maya tried to reach up for another kiss, his gaze smoldering. He kissed the valley between her breasts, his lips venturing low
Time slowly drifted by, the weather grew colder and fall seemed to have finally arrived. The incident now behind them, Maya devoted herself to her new duty and found out it was not as strenuous as it first appeared to be. The new workers Dexter hired for her turned out to be super helpful and she soon saw vast improvements in the quality of her work. Glad with the results, she was much happier and the tense air that seemed to have settled around her gradually lifted. Thanks to the punishment meted out to the nobles by the king, the atmosphere in the castle seemed to be stilted. Everyone seemed to be walking on eggshells around the king, afraid he would lash out on them but ran to seek favor from the Queen. Maya found it the whole situation amusing. Their relationship still remained the same. Unfortunately Maya was yet to tell him about the knight who had visited her a while back and it was beginning to weigh on her mind. Dexter too seemed to have something on his min
The very next morning, Nicholas had been apprehended by the search team ordered by the King. Maya found it out from her handmaids as Dexter had refused to speak with her since the night before. Although she was sad that they weren't on talking terms, she was also angry at the fact that Dexter had been taking all of these decisions without her behind her back. Thanks to her request, he was yet to do anything to him. After hours of deliberating if she should go see him or not, Maya finally mustered enough courage to. Having her handmaids dress her in a deep blue dress that screamed regality, she wore her hair down, adorning with jewels. She didn't want to drag this out for so long. She went straight to his study, her handmaids and guards not too far behind. The guards at the entrance watched her warily, inclining their heads slightly as she neared them. "I want to see the king." She stated calmly. They nodded promptly and opened the door for her. She walked in. Dext
A few days later, Nicholas knelt before the royalty, his gaze on the ground as the queen spoke. The king was with her, and the air was riddled with tension that made it impossible for him to breathe. "I'll help Gegoria in any way I can but you have to promise not to do anything stupid." Maya was saying, her voice calm and controlled. He gritted his teeth, his vision blurring with rage. "Yes, your highness." He forced out, the words leaving a bitter aftertaste in his mouth. "It's Your Majesty." A low voice corrected and his felt his blood run cold. He clenched his fists. "I apologise, your majesties." He answered. He heard the queen clear her throat and she continued. " We would be letting you go back now but don't forget we would be watching. If you decide to pose as a threat to Madonia, we would not hesitate to attack. This will be your final warning." "Yes, your majesty." He replied. Only then was he allowed to raise his head. They were sitting
" What?'" The word flew out her mouth before she had a chance stop to it, her back breaking into a cold sweat. Maya blanched at his words as she stared at him, fear immediately filling her." B-but who would do that? He was on his way to Gegoria!? What's going to happen now?" She asked, confused." I have to find out who's responsible for this and him as well." Dexter replied calmly but his eyes had grown several shades darker. He clicked his tongue, obviously displeased. "It was hard enough to catch him the first time and this happens again." Maya gazed down at her hands, an intense feeling of guilt and fear washing over her. Dexter saw her changed expression and immediately reached for her. Tilting her face up so she could look at him, he spoke calmly. "You don't need to look so disheartened, I'll find him I promise." Then he glowered. "This time, I'll take care of him myself." " But... I can't help but be worried. " She muttered, gazing at him. "What if something bad happen
The palace broke into a frenzy afterwards, with maids and guards rushing in and out of the king's chambers. With a terrified heart, Maya barked out orders but she still couldn't wait for the doctor to arrive before Dexter received treatment. Having had her own share of poisoning attempts, she knew how dangerous this things could be. "What time is the doctor arriving?" She asked, as she paced around the room, her voice strained. By now the king was already in bed, shielded from sight. " He should be here soon, Your Majesty." Rosa replied, equally worried. Maya glanced at Dexter who was already losing color. She can't wait till the doctor arrives. He might have been dead by then. Banishing the thought, she turned to Rosa, a frantic look in her eyes. "Get me all of the herbs that are available in the palace, mortar and pestle, a pot and a jar of water. Hurry!" She rushed back to his side, tears slipping out of her eyes. "Please, Dexter. Stay with me. You'll be fine and
It was already late by the time Maya finished with her duties and headed back to the chambers, exhausted. Rubbing her stiff neck, she trudged to the bed where she checked on Dexter who was still unconscious. She swallowed the lump growing in her throat, placing the back of her hands on his forehead. His body was still burning hot, sweat covering his body. His face contorted in pain which in no doubt he probably is in. At her instructions, Rosa had already left a bowl of cold water and a fresh towel after cleaning up the place. Using the basin the of water by the side of the bed, she began to clean up the sweat that had formed on his body. While she cleaned, he stiffened, his body tensing all over. She would stop before carefully continuing. This reminded her of the time in the villa where they had first met, she thought smiling sadly to herself. She'd taken care of him like this too. After patting everywhere visible with the cold towel, she dropped it, heaving a sigh. She

Months had flown by, the passage of time evident in Maya's enlarged belly as her due date approached. The Queen's once graceful movements were now hindered by the weight she carried, causing her a great deal of anxiety. Excitement and nervousness intertwined in the hearts of the Royal couple as they anticipated the imminent arrival of their child.Devon rarely strayed from Maya's side, his devotion evident in his tireless efforts to care for her and ensure her comfort. Despite the challenges they faced, he personally attended to her every need, a pillar of strength and support. Maya cherished his presence, grateful to have such a compassionate and attentive man by her side.One morning, as Maya walked around the king's chambers, her growing belly making each step a bit more cumbersome, she confided in Dexter. "The doctor said I'll be due any minute now. I feel so heavy," she moaned, her voice tinged with both exhaustion and anticipation. Rising from the bed, Dexter joined her, his han
King Dexter noticed the subtle changes in his beloved Queen, Maya before she did. Her radiant smile seemed to hold an extra sparkle, and a certain glow enveloped her complexion. Deep down, Devon suspected what this meant, but he decided to wait for the right moment before confirming his suspicions.One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of crimson and gold, Maya began to feel an unusual sick. Concern etched itself onto Devon's face as he watched her pale slightly. Without wasting another moment, he called for the royal doctor, his voice laced with urgency.Within minutes, the royal physician arrived at their private chambers, carrying an air of calm expertise. His eyes, filled with wisdom and compassion, quickly assessed the Queen's condition. After a thorough examination, he nodded with certainty, his voice gentle yet brimming with joy as he delivered the long-awaited news."Your Majesty, congratulations are in order," the doctor announced, a warm
Maya woke up the next morning, feeling a sense of emptiness without Dexter by her side. As she slowly opened her drowsy eyes, she scanned the chambers and spotted Dexter already dressing up for his duties. Catching sight of her stirring, he paused his preparations and walked over to her, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead."Good morning," he muttered, a soft smile gracing his face."Good morning," she whispered, reaching out to touch his cheeks. He caught her hand and kissed it tenderly."How do you feel?" he asked, releasing her hand. Maya instinctively touched her body, then beamed up at him."Great.""I'm glad to hear that. I'm already leaving for my duties. The maids will come in soon to prepare you for the day. I've already instructed them. I'll see you in the evening.""Why evening?" Maya inquired, looking at him curiously. He pursed his lips for a moment."I want us to go for a walk in the gardens today," he revealed. Maya nodded, her heart racing with excitement and antici
"Turn around, get on all fours, and have your behind facing upwards," Dexter commanded, his voice stern.Maya complied, turning around and doing as she was told. Her backside raised high in the air, she waited for Devon, her heart pounding. She felt him caress her butt and she bit back a moan, already shivering in anticipation. Dexter leaned down to suck on her earlobes, his body pressing her down into the bed. "How do you want it?" He asked, his hands still drawing lazy circles on her behind. "Fast and hard, or very slow?" He asked, his voice dangerously calm. Maya swallowed, thinking about her options."H-how about both?" Maya muttered back, sucking in her lower lips. She felt Dexter hit her backside and she squirmed, her insides clenching at the surge of pain that coursed through her body."Now, you're just being greedy." He muttered, his voice harsh. Biting and sucking in her skin, Dexter continued to tease her, rubbing his hardened length on her wet folds. Maya whimpered, pushing
"Touch yourself again." Devon repeated and Maya's heart skipped a beat. She gulped, blinking rapidly. Why would he want her to do that? Still, she couldn't deny it felt almost exciting to try that in front of him. His gaze not leaving hers, Maya did as she was told. Very slowly, her hands inched between her thighs, her face burning even as she tried to appear unaffected."Spread your legs further." He commanded and Maya stiffened, her eyes flying open. Devon didn't move, no expression on his face as she spoke it. But she knew he meant it. Biting her lips, she spread her legs further, settling her fingers in between them, her blush growing down her body. Still reeling from her first orgasm, she started to touch herself, gasping at the sensation coursing through her body. With Dexter watching her, the act was even more erotic. It was almost too much to handle.The atmosphere was filled with sexual tension and no matter how hard Maya tried to minimize the pleasure she got from the act,
As evening fell, Dexter and Maya made their way back to the palace. Dexter hurried off to attend his duties, leaving Maya alone in the king's chambers. She couldn't contain her joy, her smile radiant as the maids readied a bath for her. Among them was Rosa, who eagerly awaited her chance to speak with the queen. Finally, the maids departed, and Rosa approached Maya with a gentle smile, drawing closer to her."How was your day, my queen?" Rosa asked, her gentle hands pouring warm water over Maya's body, cleansing it with care.Maya's face lit up, her joy evident as she clapped her hands. "It was splendid! The best I have had in a while," she beamed, her happiness radiating from within.A warm smile adorned Rosa's face as she continued to wash the queen, attentively tending to her. When they were halfway through, Rosa couldn't resist asking her question."Should I prepare the tea for you, my queen?" she inquired, her voice filled with sincerity, while Maya, lost in her thoughts, simply
Two days had passed since Maya's discussion with Rosa, and finally, all the necessary preparations were in place. After adorning herself for the day, Rosa lingered behind once the other maids had departed, eager to share some news with the queen. Maya sat patiently, awaiting Rosa's words."My Queen, I have some news," Rosa announced, her head respectfully bowed."Please, go ahead," Maya encouraged."I scoured the surroundings in search of suitable herbs for your condition, and this is what was recommended to me," Rosa explained, reaching into her pouch and producing a bundle of dried leaves. She placed them carefully before the queen. "According to the doctors, they advised me to brew a tea with these leaves. It is believed to prepare the body for pregnancy," Rosa concluded.Maya gazed at the herbs before her, taking them into her hands to examine them closely. Satisfied that they were genuine and potent, she nodded, her eyes turning to meet Rosa's."Well then, I have heard what you h
Note: This is a side story. it is not taking anything away from the main story since that is completed. But rather a continuation. if you want to spend more time with the characters, read this. That being said, enjoy!!!!It was the height of summer, the sweet fragrances of flowers floated through the sunlit corridors, seeping into the grand chambers of the king. Maya, dressed in her finest garments, settled in front of her vanity, the warm sunlight casting a gentle glow upon her reflection. Her handmaids bustled around her, carefully selecting beautiful jewelry to complement her dress, and a soft smile adorned her face. The past few months had been a glorious time for the royal family. The war that once wreaked havoc upon their kingdom was now a faded memory, defeated by their unwavering determination and success. In its wake, peace embraced the land, offering solace to its inhabitants. Maya's heart overflowed with happiness, her only wish being the perpetuation of this blissful exist
