He pat my back and I sniff in deeply.
"I told you to not touch her... "
"She hurt you" he whispers sternly and tilts my head so I can stare into his eyes.
"And I touch people who touch my Queen"
I smile faintly at him and he takes my hand in his gently. He twists his fingers with mine and play with the bottom curls of my hair. I stare at him all the while.
His eyes surveying my hair gently. I know he isn't staring at me.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" he asks and I feel my face turn hot and red in embarrassment.
"I... Um... What do you mean? I wasn't staring at you, I was just... "
The stubborn and charming smile that appears on his face and the way he looks at me like a glare, makes me to stop talking.
"You can't lie. You know that right?" I feel embarrassed for even trying to.
I stare at his feet and bit my lip and then I look up again.
"Who's staring now?" I ask and it's his time to feel his cheeks grow red.
"You are" he say and poke my stomach with his finger. I laugh out loud and stop when he smiles a tired and sad smile.
"Pack all you need, My love. We will be heading to the battle field by tomorrow morning" he says
Finally! He's changed his mind about me staying back here!
"I will, love" I say and he lays his lips on the back of my hand softly.
"Gather the hands maid you know will accompany you and serve you to your pleasure. If you need anything, let Von know so that he gets to me. I'll see you at night, my love"
I nod and walk away from him leaving a peck on his cheek.
I feel close to him now. His arms and presence makes me feel alive and well brought up.
I look back to see him still staring at me and I blush as I face my front.
Hot Prince.
This thought makes me smile.
Magnus went back to the throne room to see his mother still sitting on the floor, with maids surrounding her.
"Leave" he said once and all the maids scurried off. Some shooting attractive looks at him with their long lashes and beautiful eyes and face.
Too bad. One woman has caught my heart already, Magnus thought.
"Magnus please... "
"So you have the guts to make my wife bleed and get her all dirty, huh?"
Anastasia is visibly shaking now. The cold eyes of Magnus is making her shiver in a cold that isn't even in the atmosphere.
"No... N-no... That's not... "
"The next time I see you with my wife again, I'm gonna make sure your throat is given to the dogs... " Anastasia gulps, not minding the closeness between she and her son.
"She is your daughter in law. More likely my wife... " he leans forward so that his mother can hear him.
"Treat her with respect" he said, calmly and silently so that she won't hear him well.
The woman didn't hear anything, if she is to be honest, but she sure heard "Respect", so she guessed the whole thing.
"I bet your own mother in law didn't treat you like that... Why treat your own daughter in law like that?"
He stands up and stare at his mother briefly.
"If you want to die, do it again. You have my word that you will to go to your mother in time from then... " he says and turn away from her.
Walking to the door, he says "Death is at the door. But know that it is My wife that will keep you alive" And that's it.
He leaves her there. On the floor in astonishment.
What had Lyla done to her son, that even she don't know about?
Isn't Magnus a sweet little thing.
I felt those fluffy things today once again and I can't help but let myself just get into it with him. He makes me feel weird but at the same time loved.
I have a quick bath, changed my clothes and now I'm on my bed.
I wonder how Madeline is enjoying her marriage and her time with Kahn. They match so well with each other. I don't know why but it's the truth.
My mother one told me that a day will come that I will give birth for someone. I can't wait to have my own son.
To raise him in strength, power and transparency. He will be the only jewel I will have apart from Magnus.
And he even smiled at me. Widely at that.
I love when he smiles. Everything about him is what I do like.
I hope you love me Magnus. Cause I do love you.
I love you too, Magnus thought as he read the thoughts of Lyla again. Without her permission.
It is so good yet a bit stressing to be a King. He sighs when he thinks of this and then his thoughts diverted back to Lyla.
He don't care about the time it will take for her to be ready, he will always wait.
And the time she says she is ready I will treat her harshly that day, Magnus says. Another completely different feeling erupting up in him. His eyes turn blue as his wolf self is dying to feed on someone sentimentally.
"Your Majesty, you really are captivated by the Queen" Von says and that's when he realize that he have not been listening to what Von has been saying but have been thinking of Lyla.
"Oh! You were saying?"
Von laughed at this reaction and Magnus just smiles nervously. Blushing in his inner mind.
"Don't be ridiculous, your majesty. It's okay to feel love everytime"
Magnus looks at him and smiles.
"You're gonna be a great father" he say
Von nods and with a deep bow "Thank you your Majesty"
