"You have ten minutes, no more." Melech told Azalia as they walked to the infirmary where Emet had apparently woken up. "I don't have any time to waste on such things." He declared, his words harsh and final. "Emet is important to me." Azalia frowned at Melech. "I'll spend as much time as I want with him, whether you like it or not." She wasn't one to take orders from anyone, not even from the Adom King. She wouldn't spend so little time with Emet just because Melech had said so. "He should have been dead for challenging me." He seethed at Azalia's defiance. "I know." She was aware of this. "And I can't thank you enough for sparing his life." Melech would have been in his right if he had killed Emet, because the Lavan knight had been the one to defy him. Azalia was grateful he had let him live, really. "I'll make sure he never defies you again." She would have a serious conversation with Emet as soon as she saw him. Still, Melech wasn't happy. "I don't like him." It was clear the r
"Wait, Melech!" Azalia didn't even have time to blink that Melech had already roughly pushed Emet away from her."You bastard!" The King furiously shouted right before his fist collided with Emet's jaw. "I shouldn't have let you live!" The strength of his punch brutally sent Emet to the ground, the Lavan knight letting out a pained grunt at the impact.Azalia's eyes widened in horror at the sight. Emet was still injured from their duel and therefore couldn't defend himself. Melech was going to reopen his wound and make him bleed to death if he kept going. "Melech! Stop!" She exclaimed as she tried to hold Melech back, but Melech wasn't listening and was too strong for her to do anything."I'm going to kill you!" He growled as he lifted Emet back up from the ground, feeling ready to punch him again. Anger was completely filling him up. He couldn't believe Emet had dared to kiss Azalia, his future wife.Azalia was his. Only he was allowed to touch her, no one else. Emet shouldn't have t
They stumbled into Melech's quarters, Azalia gasping when Melech wasted no time carrying her to his bed. She was laid down on top of the black silky sheets, their lips never parting as Melech followed her."You're so gorgeous." He murmured against her skin. "So perfect for me." His large body was hovering over Azalia's, his calloused hands slipping beneath Azalia's dress and caressing her vulva through her panties. It made Azalia quiver with want and arousal."Melech." She let out a soft sigh of pleasure when Melech began to kiss down her neck."What do you want?" The Adom King asked her. He was looking up at her, a smirk on his lips as he continued to rub her most intimate part with his thumb. "Should I eat you out again?" He could feel her panties getting wet at his words. "Or would you prefer if I fingered you?""No." Azalia surprisingly shook her head. "Neither.""Neither?" It took Melech aback, the Adom King stopping to touch her when she pushed him away. He frowned in confusion,
Azalia woke up from sweet kisses being pressed onto the back of her neck. She let out a soft hum, her blue eyes staying closed a little longer as she cuddled closer to the warm body behind her.Melech had one arm wrapped around her waist and used it to pull her flush against him. He continued to press loving kisses on her nape, his lips progressively moving to her shoulder while his hand gently caressed her hip, almost lovingly."Morning, little princess." He murmured.Azalia hummed in response, her hand finding Melech's arm. Melech was being so affectionate with her this early in the morning and she absolutely loved it. It was making her heart melt inside her chest. "Morning." She softly answered, her body shuddering with delight as Melech kept kissing her delicate skin.Right now, in the comfort of Melech's arms, yesterday somehow felt like weeks ago. It had been quite eventful, to say the least, but Azalia was grateful that everything had worked out in the end. Her relationship wit
Azalia could tell that Melech was still tense at the end of the day. He obviously kept thinking about his parents' former advisor, the man who had betrayed the crown and whom he wanted to kill. His blood lust was almost palpable in the air. It wasn't healthy, and so Azalia decided to take the matter into her own hands. "Come on." She gently nudged Melech. They had returned to the Adom King's private quarters after dinner, although Azalia rarely ever returned to her own quarters anymore. She liked staying with Melech, something Melech wasn't complaining about either. "We're taking a bath together." She told him. "Now?" He raised an eyebrow at her. "Yes, now. It will help relax you." She said but Melech refused to acknowledge just how tense he was. "I'm perfectly relaxed." "You're not." Azalia rolled her eyes at him. "I can feel it, you know?" She just had to touch Melech to sense what he felt: the Adom King was filled with wrath, anger and blood-lust. It reminded Azalia of the firs
"We're leaving soon." Melech said. He fastened his double-headed axe at his side before turning around to face Azalia. "Are you ready to go?" A few days had passed since Melech had sent a letter to the Kesed Kingdom, and a positive answer had arrived yesterday. It meant that the Kesef King and Queen had agreed to the Adom King visiting their kingdom. Things had moved fast from this point on. The preparation for their travel to the Kesef Kingdom only took one day. Azalia nodded at Melech's question. Except for getting dressed for the day, the Lavan princess hadn't needed to do anything since her attendants had packed her belongings for her. She was ready to leave with Melech but, before that, she still had something to do... "I need to go see Emet." She said, her voice slightly hesitant but her words firm. She was apprehending how Melech was going to react but she really needed to talk to Emet before leaving. She had already been pushing back the moment for too long. "Why the fuck d
"What?" Azalia couldn't believe her ears. Surely, she hadn't heard Melech right. "A dragony?" She repeated in a puzzled voice. "Nobody in their right mind would ride such a dangerous creature."Dragonies were small dragon-like creatures belonging to the Adom Kingdom. They were a dark orange colour, their wings and bodies covered with red scales strong enough to stop a blade. They were gorgeous but could breathe fire and had extremely sharp fangs and claws that could kill a man on the spot. Azalia would never dare approach one of those too close."You're right, princess." Yaakov joined their conversation, the general Onan at his side. He greeted both her and Melech with a bow of the head before continuing to speak: "Nobody in their right mind would ride such a dangerous creature." He had an amused smile on his lips, his words pulling a snort out of Melech."What is it?" Azalia was left apprehensive. She hoped with all of her heart it didn't mean what she thought it meant."It's a good
"Onan." Melech called his general. "Let's spar."They had been travelling to the Kesef Kingdom for three days now and were only starting to approach the limit between the Adom Kingdom and the Kesef Kingdom. It was particularly noticeable with the change of landscapes around them:The Adom Kingdom was quite arid, with little vegetation and a lot of dry earth. Azalia had even seen a few volcanoes during their trip, none of them being in the middle of an eruption, thankfully. But the temperatures were high and the sun relentless. Azalia would do anything for some coolness.That's why the apparition of more greenery the closer they got to the Kesef Kingdom was a relief. The Kesef Kingdom was known for its mountains. Words said it could be extremely cold during the winter, with white snow covering everything, but it was late spring and so the perfect season to visit.Azalia was actually excited about arriving. She had heard that the Kesef palace was situated on top of the biggest mountain
Azalia woke up in the comfort of her bed with silky sheets surrounding her. She could feel the warmth of a body behind her, what had to be Melech's arms wrapped around her waist. They had gone to bed late last night. The banquet after her coronation had lasted a long time, but Azalia had had a lot of fun talking with different guests and gossiping with Esther. She had enjoyed watching Esther playing hard to get with the Yarok prince, unlike Yael, who had tried seducing Nehorai the whole evening... without any success. Azalia didn't know how things had ended but she was pretty sure that she had seen Esther and Nehorai disappear together at some point. Esther would have to tell her all the details of what had happened between them the next time they saw each other. Knowing Esther, she already had the Yarok prince wrapped around her finger. Her thoughts were interrupted by sultry kisses being pressed onto her nape and shoulders. She hummed in contentment, the Adom Queen baring her neck
"Azalia!" Someone calling out her name made Azalia turn around, her face instantly breaking into a smile as her eyes landed on her friend. "Esther." She hugged the Kesef princess. "I'm so glad you came." She was the person she had been looking forward to seeing again the most among all the guests, after her mother, of course. "Me, too." Esther held her tight before letting her go so that they could look at each other. "I missed you." She smiled at Azalia. She looked gorgeous in a silver dress that hugged her body just right. It made her eyes stand out even more. "Writing letters is not the same as seeing each other." "I agree." Azalia sighed. Writing to each other was better than nothing, but it didn't allow them to talk about private things and paled compared to a real conversation face to face. That's why Azalia was overjoyed that Esther had come for her coronation. They were at the banquet hall right now. All the people who held a high status in the Adom Kingdom were mingling wi
Amos led Azalia throughout the Adom castle until they arrived in a spacious room, linked to the largest balcony Azalia had ever seen. There stood Melech, the members of the High Council next to him.They were all dressed in gorgeous outfits that looked extremely expensive. They were representing the Adom Kingdom and so had to make a good impression. Yael's dress, especially, was impressive. It was black with golden accents, and almost rivalled Azalia's red dress...But Azalia was more beautiful and everyone knew it, that's why she didn't blame Yael for trying to look her best. It also helped that Yael had gifted her a dragony egg for her marriage with Melech. The egg hadn't hatched yet, but Azalia couldn't wait to meet the baby dragony growing inside it. She already knew that she would care for it dearly.Her mother, Queen Astera, was there as well. One of her counsellors was accompanying her. As the Lavan Queen and, more importantly, as Azalia's mother, she was allowed to stand with t
Azalia couldn't believe that today was the day she would be crowned Queen of the Adom Kingdom. She had always known she would become Queen one day, but she had thought she would be the Queen of the Lavan Kingdom, not of the Adom Kingdom. Not that she minded, on the contrary. The Adom Kingdom was the most powerful in the land, and she knew she would always hold an important status in the Lavan Kingdom no matter what happened. With Melech by her side as the Adom King, she had everything she could ever ask for. "How do you feel, princess?" Temira asked her while brushing her hair. "Are you excited?" She was making sure Azalia would look her best for her coronation. It was important since people coming from all over the land would be there to see her. "I'm a little nervous but mostly excited, yes," She answered her friend and attendant. It was only natural she would feel some stress before such a big event. She couldn't afford to mess anything up. "I'm sure everything will go well," T
Azalia felt her heart race inside her chest as she looked at the Lavan escort approaching the Adom castle. It was constituted of several soldiers and a few servants, the Lavan Queen herself as well as two of her advisors leading the way. Azalia could also recognize the Lavan general Barak following them, but she didn't pay him any mind as all of her attention was fully focused on Queen Astera. "Mother!" She ran to her as soon as the Lavan Queen got off her horse. "Azalia." They exchanged a hug in front of everyone, neither of them caring about proper manners at the moment. They hadn't seen each other in so long. "My treasure." Queen Astera's voice slightly wavered as she held her daughter close to her. "I missed you. It's so good to see you." "Me, too." Azalia was close to tears. Only years of training prevented her from crying in front of so many people, but being back in her mother's arms was making her feel too emotional for words. She wasn't a little girl anymore, but her mother
"Congratulations on your marriage, princess," Yaakov told Azalia as they walked into the council room together. It had been hard to convince Azalia to leave her bed with Melech, but she had relented in the end. She couldn't in good conscience miss one of the meetings of the High Council, especially not when the main subject would be her coronation. Still, she wished she and Melech had had a little more time alone... "Thank you, Yaakov." She smiled at the Adom counsellor. "Your gift was amazing." She didn't forget to thank him for the unicorn's tears he had gifted her and Melech for their union during their sacred ceremony. "I can't believe you didn't keep them for yourself." It was a priceless gift, one that Azalia would have never let go of. "Nonsense." Yaakov shook his head. "Those tears were meant for someone as important as you and the King." He was smirking as he said that, and so Azalia fondly rolled her eyes in response. "Such pretty lies." He was obviously trying to flatter
Melech helped Azalia wash after their sexy time in the bathtub. He started with washing her face and then her hair, making sure to use the right products to not damage her natural waves. He then washed the rest of her body, from her arms to her legs, and even went as far as to rub her feet with some special lotions. Azalia loved it. Temira and Shai were usually the ones to take care of her when she took a bath, but having her husband do it instead felt amazing. The amount of care Melech was using when touching her body was heart-warming. It made her feel special and loved, affection for Melech swelling inside her chest. "My turn." She said once Melech had finished washing her. She wanted to take care of him, too. And she also didn't want to miss an occasion of putting her hands all over Melech's body. It was too sexy for words. "Turn around. I'll start with your back." She said and Melech obeyed without any complaints. Azalia spent several minutes applying soap to his nape, shoulde
"Come here, little princess." Melech cautiously pulled Azalia into the bath with him, placing her against his strong chest. Azalia settled between Melech's legs and let out a content sigh at the sensation of the warm water surrounding her body. She felt a little sore after their first time having sex last night, and felt grateful for the warm bath. It relaxed her aching muscles and helped with her soreness, even if just a little. It was late morning. Melech had woken her up with loving kisses all over her face and body, before carrying her to their bathroom. Azalia loved how gentle he was with her. Their first time had been amazing, both passionate and intimate at the same time, although quite intense, too. Not that Azalia was complaining about it, on the contrary. "How are you feeling?" Melech asked her. He was gently rubbing her hips with his hands, trying to soothe any aches she could feel. The soft gesture made Azalia relax even further, her blue eyes closing in pure bliss. She
Melech claimed Azalia's lips with his own as soon as they were back in their private quarters. "Melech." The Lavan princess moaned as Melech kissed her passionately. They had hurried back to their quarters as soon as the sacred ceremony had finished. They had barely heard the members of the High Council congratulate them on their union, the two lovers way too impatient to pay them any mind. Finally, after months of torturous wait, they could go all the way together. "Are you already wet?" Melech smirked as he touched Azalia's intimate parts through her clothes. The question made her blush a little, a small gasp leaving her lips when Melech rubbed her vulva from on top of the fabric. "Yes." She had no other choice but to admit. She was already wet just from a simple kiss. Her whole body was burning up with desire for her husband. Melech felt a smirk tug at his lips as pride swelled inside him. He leaned in, letting his hot breath brush against Azalia's skin as he murmured right into
