The sun shined and the bird chirped outside the chamber. Aella woke up due to the lights that land on her face. Persi the cat jumped up the bed and walk on the pillow to his owner's face and nudged her with his nose while purring and meowing. She put a hand on her cat and sat up, looking outside before noticing something different.
Aella was in a new clean nightgown and she doesn't feel sticky at all which confuses her, even the bed sheet looks new.
"good morning my little wife you're finally awake! oh if you're wondering about the clothes, I had clean you up and change you earlier. I even change the bed sheet to make you sleep comfortably, aren't I nice? " The king informed her as he walk into the room carrying several files in his hands.
Aella just glared at him in anger and frustration for what happen last night when she notices a certain scented candle that she fails to spot last night, half-hidden next to a vase on the table beside the door.
King Rafael notices her distracted and look to the direction where she was looking. Snmirking as he saw it "Ah... I see you found the scented candle, It's a good stimulant for us last night isn't it?"
Aella's eyes widened as she heard it, "Stimulant....? You! "
Her words was cut off as he appears in front of her in just a second "now now my little wife... it's not like you didn't enjoy the sex last night... I remember you begging me to move harder and faster~ and you still need to watch your tongue my love...I'm still your king". He was playing with her breasts as he said this, causing her to bit her lip from moaning. Although by the fierce stare she gives him, if look could kill, the perverted king (which what she decides to call him now) would definitely be dead.
The king just smirked at her then kiss her hungrily, only releasing her when she seems to be out of breath then walked into a third door in the room "I'll be in my office love... if you need me you know where to find me".
As soon as he enters his office a thump sound came from behind the close door, sounding like a pillow was just thrown. He only chuckles and went to his table to read the files that he just got from his advisor.
Aella was heaving up and down in anger after she throw the pillow at the office door while Persi stare at his owner worriedly. Tears had started to accumulate on her eyes and she immediately wipe it away with a determined look. She got out of the bed and take her cat to the bathroom with her.
as soon as she went in, she locked the door and cast an undetected silencing spell in the bathroom. 'I better hide my magics everytime I use it... by the way that perverted king moves fast just now and last night, he must have some form of magic... and the sly fox Symon might also have magic, noone in this kingdom had such a bright yellow eyes like him... not to mention I can sense his magical aura. A strong one at that, it seems I have to be careful with both the king and Marquis...'.
"Persi... warn me if you smell someone in the bedroom okay" she told her as she look around at every nook and cranny to see if there's anything suspicious or magic imbedded stuff that might record her voice or her every movement. 'who knows what on his mind' she thought bitterly. when she was sure that there was nothing that could expose her, she went to the bathroom mirror and recite a spell.
"Καλώ τη μαγεία της κυρίας hekate να καλεί στον καθρέφτη της αντανάκλασης, στον καθρέφτη της ψυχής...FireFist"
The mirror seem to sparkle and the reflections in the mirror blurred until a red hair woman can be seen in it.
"Ailorous! my dear... is it okay for you to call me.. you're in the king's chamber aren't you? "
Aella chuckled at that "bathroom specifically but yes it's safe... that perverted bastard is busy with his paperwork and I layered the bathroom with an untraceable silencing spell, Persi is keeping a eye-er well nose-at the door and would warn me if anyone had went into the bedroom... ".
FireFist sweatdropped at that "perverted bastard?... well I guess that's mean you're no longer a virgin. how...was your night? enjoyable? "
Aella's eyes twitched at the question "that... that bastard put a scented candles that act as an aphrodisiac to make me weak!".
FireFist gasped at that "oh... Aella... "
"Meow.. "
Aella turn at the sound and face the mirror again "I need to go now someone's outside" and she quickly canceled all of the spells that she casted and quickly washed her face with face soap.
"Love, are you here?" the king asked as he went in the bathroom, almost tripping on Persi making him scratched the stupid king.
Aella watched the scene in amusement from the mirror and turn to the king while wiping her face, frowning.
"what do you want" she scowled at the king as he approached her and put his hands on either side of her making her trap between him and the sink.
"you know... you're really cute when you're angry, just like a little kitty~ my little kitty~" He was saying this while sniffing and niping her neck and ear. He got really into it and started to suck at her sweet spot and got delighted when he hears a small moan.
"let...ah...go of...me-ah" She struggled to push him off while trying to keep from moaning. This only annoys the king and he pins her hands to her back.
"now my queen, my love, my kitty... don't struggle too much...I'm tired of handling those paperworks so I need a fun activity before I continue it.. " but as he was about to continue what he's doing, a knock had came from the door.
"who is it?!" the king growled.
A familiar voice answered, "It's me, Ren your majesties" the Marquis Symon had use his first name.
The king mumbled his displeasure before giving a last and hard suck on Aella's neck before going out from the bathroom with a satisfied look.
Aella look frazzled after what the king did and look at her refection at the mirror, spotting a red mark on her neck. She turns on the water and tried to make it disappear in vain.
A knock sounded again and she grumpily went and open the door "who is it?!"
The maid that had knocked on the door jumped back in surprised and scared "G-good m-morning Y-your majesty... I'm here t-to prepare y-you for your f-first day as o-our queen". she was trembling as she talk which makes Aella softened her expression.
"Oh... I'm sorry if I scare you, my mood is not that good my dear... and of course you can help me, I see you have choosen a dress for me... "she said as she notices a navy blue dress hanged on the changing screen.
"I-I hope it is to your liking your majesty? "the maid asked.
Aella smiled gently and nodded "It's beautiful my dear now come in and prepared my bath as I'm going to just...uh... brush my teeth and all". Stepping aside and went back to the sink.
Persi the cat was sitting at the sink counter, grooming while sitting. The maid cooed quietly at the cat before getting to work.
Aella stares at her reflection and gives up in wiping the mark with cold water, she settle on brushing her teeth innstead just like she said to the maid.
3 minutes later the maid piped out "your bath's ready your majesty"
Aella walked to the bathtub and sweatdropped 'this is a pool not a tub' was her thought. She just sighed in defeat and take off her nightgown before carefully entering the pool with the help of the maid as a certain area in the south of her body is still sore. 'If that sly fox did not come earlier, that bastard would continue further and... I might not have any strength to stand up' she thought bitterly.
The maid helps her to wash her hair, massaging her scalps expertly making Aella feels relaxed , "did you learn this massage somewhere... it's feels nice... how about you help me every bathtime. Well unless you're unavailable due to sickness or holiday".
The maid brightened up at that and aswers excitedly "I'll be honoured to aid you every bathtime your majesty! "
After a relaxing and refreshing bathtime, Aella change to the dress that was choosen and apply light makeup and accessories.
The maid, who introduces herself as Emmaline blushes and cooed as she stared at her "your majesty... you are really really beautiful... I'm not even sure that the title queen could fit better, you look like a goddess!"
Aella laughed at that "thank you Emma... you're also cute, may I ask how old are you?"
"I'm 18 years old your majesty.. " she answered timidly.
Aella nodded and then remembered something "well... since we're ready, how about you tell me my schedules".
"well you're first schedule is looking over and confirming the documents about the treasury and food storage then-" Emma was cut off by Aella.
"wait? I thought that's the bast-I mean my husbands' job?" calling the king her husband really left a bad taste in her mouth.
Emma pretend that she did not hear Aella slips on calling their king a bastard and explains "it is... but it is an old permanent rule that had been set by the fifth king of Aurelia...it is to make sure that the king did not miss anything and did not misuse the treasury and food rations. Our previous treasury and food storage report was only handled by his majesty because well... he haven't married yet but since you're her wife and our queen hence the rule comes alive again..."
Aella nodded while glancing outside the window, "I see... " her expression seems serious and understanding but in her mind she was doing a "villain laugh"
'HUEHUEHUEHAHAHAHAHA... now you can't use the people's money and food as long as I'm around to object and keep you from being greedy little shit-oops I accidentally cursed.. what a bad manner for a queen~'
[A/N : Imagine an anime chibi of Aella grew a devil horn(and tail) and laugh evilly while rubbing her hand together like a scheming villain and then cutely closes her mouth with one hand when she realizes she just curses]
She snaps back from her scheming when she heard Emma continued to talk.
"-and then there is a couple of lessons after that, like etiquette class-ah! don't get me wrong your majesty but every new queen will be taught how to act like a proper queen for 2 months, noble lady manners and a queen manners is actually quite different-there is also a history class-an in depth history of the kingdom and royal family along with other kingdoms and royal families-, after the two class is your free time. your free time usually lasted an hour but you could use your authority as a queen if you still want to rest more, after that will be the daily excursion with the king- its our king's decision- ,you also have options to either learn sword fighting or archery after that although your majesty need to tell me now which one you want to learn so I can prepare it. Pick ONLY one your majesty. Ah yes! breakfast, lunch and dinner will be joined by his majesty though since you're overslept due to tiredness from, ahem, you kind of miss it but his majesty already ordered someone to bring you your late breakfast as soon as you're working on the reports later..oh! the king did not want to prepare your own office so you will be sharing office with his majesty."
Aella sweatdropped as Emma explain all her schedules, a little overwhelmed.
'I should learn sword fighting instead since I'm already good with archery but... ' she looked at Emma questioningly "the king let me learn sword and archery? and did you just said that I will share an office with him? why?"
Emma tilted her head, thinking "well... his majesty are worried for your safety... he fears that many bad people that hate him will go after you especially the so-called Guardians and he fears that if they get to you before the knights and guards can then you can atleast protect yourself... and.. about sharing office, I heard his majesty said that he wanted to always see you everytime he works on paperwork your majesty, to relieve stress and pressure he said"
Aella deadpanned at the answers 'well...funny that I am a part of The Guardian...and...can he get any more perverted than this?!'.
"I see... well...I guess let's go to... our... new office then" she sighed and glared at the door to the office.
Emma nodded her head with a "yes your majesty" and went to the office door to open it only to be puzzled when she notices the pillow infront of the door. "What's the pillow doing here" she ponders aloud while picking it up and dusting it with her hand gently to get rid of dust then opening the door
"must have flown off while I'm asleep" Aella awkwardly laughed then enters the office and close it herself with a frown.
The office was quite big with a big window facing a garden and a big table filled with papers, seals and inkwell and feather and a grand chair infront of the window. Connected to the table was another table that is situated vertically making an L shape which had a comfy cushioned chair and a tray of english breakfast served on the table along with a cup of tea. There was also a new inkwell and feather along with an organized new set of seals, letter opener, a scented candle, blank papers, a vase with Lily of the Valley, and a neat stack of documents that must have contains the reports that she needs to signed, the organized and clean state is completely different from the messy state of the king's table. The most unpleasant view for Aella would be the pervert king who was smilling stupidly as he stand next to his chair facing her, looking like a puppy who seek praise from its owner (arf! arf!)
"what do you think love?" he asked proudly.
"Repulsive... your majesty" Aella answers without mercy. "I will accept the food but the table need a rearrangement" she went straight to her table and sat down to eat, immediately ignoring him.
King Rafael seems to lost her smiles and was sulking in the corner of the room muttering in a low voice : "my wife dislikes it...she want to change table... dislikes...repulsive.. "
[A/N : now imagined an anime King Rafael sulking in a corner looking all dark and depressed with mushrooms growing around and on top of his head]
bonus:
Chibi Aella notices the unlit scented candles at her table. She glares at it then flick it off the table with her hand.
Chibi king came out of the emo corner and panicked "my-my love! my kitty! don't throw it away that's just a regular lavender scented candles to calm your nerves!"
Chibi Aella responds "I hate scented candles now".
*translation of the spell : I call forth the magic of lady hekate to summon in the mirror of reflection, mirror of the soul... Firefist..
(a/n : I forgot to give the translation of the summoning spell, for info the spell is done in Greek. I use google translate to change it to greek so i dont know if its accurate. I thought it would be appropriate to use it since I use Lady Hekate as the goddess for the story. Other greek gods and goddesses might be use but i dont know yet)
