The door to Isolde's room was busted open.
She stood up to look at the intruder who dared to disturb her while she was trying to sleep in irritation. But when she saw the culprit, the lines on her forehead smoothened and a smirk found its way to her lips.
Removing her quilt, she got out of her bed and stood beside it on her silk nightgown.
"Coming inside an unmarried woman's room in the middle of the night, what should I take it as, Prince?"
Looking at the panting person, the smirk on her face deepened. She walked towards Maximus.
"Should I think that you changed your mind for tonight and left Ado-"
She couldn't speak anymore.
Isolde forgot to read the atmosphere of her Master and now she was at his mercy.
He was choking her with all the force he had.
"Dream on. How could the likes of you light even a candle to my Adonis?"
"Hah….ple….ase…...let….g…..o"
She tapped on his hands in full panic.
Only then did he let go of her neck.
Isolde panted like crazy, holding her neck.
But as soon as her breath stabilised she stood all serious and obedient in front of him.
"What is the matter, sir? Please let this servant know how she can be of help."
Maximus went near her bed.
Isolde, having served him for more than three years, already knew how to handle his temper. She stood in her place without making even a bit of sound.
"He-he touched him. He fucking touched him."
Maximus flared up and went kicking around, throwing everything here and there, in her room.
"HOW DARE HE? HOW DARE HE FUCKING TOUCH WHAT BELONGS TO ME? HOW DARE HE TOUCH ADONIS BEFORE I DID? AHHHHH."
The maid and servants in Isolde's mansion had also long been acquainted with these types of shouting at night. They just turned around and closed their eyes
Isolde just sat in her place.
After a while Maximus calmed down and sat at the end of her bed. She sat on the floor beside his leg.
"I want him. I can't wait anymore. I want him as soon as possible. I don't wish to show him to anyone anymore. I don't want him to become dirty with any man's touch."
He stood up again.
Isolde got behind him and started massaging his shoulders.
"He is already yours and soon he'll be where you want him to be."
"Don't give me that, Isolde. If you know how to do it, then that is what you should be fucking saying."
Isolde gently turned him around and said,"Have I ever disappointed you, Master? You should go to bed now. It has become quite late and your body needs rest. I have a way, we'll go with that in the morning."
Seeing Maximus relax, she led him to the bed and made him sit.
"Should I prepare some people to come and relieve the Master's stress?"
Maximus looked at her from head to toe and shook his head.
"No need. Tonight, you'll do. Wear it."
Isolde, on her all fours, clenched the sheets tightly.
No matter how many times they had done it, she could never get used to it.
Maximus was mercyless with his thrust at her back.
Why was it always her ass?
Ha, she wanted to laugh at the question like a maniac.
"Hah, Adonis. Ado...nis. You…... you're..mine. All mine."
He smacked her.
"Ahhhh."
Because she was merely someone used by Maximus to pose as her cousin. He used her to vent his desire; he wanted to vent on Adonis.
For that reason, Maximus never looked at her from front during their deed. He did her from behind, calling out for Adonis and imagining him.
Isolde couldn't get used to it but still couldn't live without it.
For this reason, this man always came back to her no matter how many people he had been with earlier.
Because only she could support the real him happily, with her mind, heart and body.
As Maximus started stimulating her with his fingers in the front, she couldn't think straight anymore.
"Ahhh. Prince…..Ng...Ahhhhhh."
"Say it."
"Faster…..Please, Pri….ncee…Harder…...Ahhh…Prince."
An evil glint appeared in Maximus's eyes. He became more excited because in his mind it was Adonis writhing under him, begging him for more, begging him to go harder, begging him to go faster, moaning with so much pleasure.
That unleashed the beast inside him to its full potential.
He smacked her non stop till her ass looked like it would start dripping blood any second and Isolde moaned nonstop.
Pathetic, Isolde thought.
So what? As long as she could have what she wanted.
The power, money and man.
She's going to do anything to become the Queen.
She had a triumphant smile on her face.
For now, she had it all. And she'll make sure she'll keep on having it always.
"How will the Young Master react?"
"I don't know, we've never talked about that. But I don't think he'll like-"
Adonis woke up due to the sound of low chattering. He stirred in his bed.
That caught Rosie's attention and she came rushing towards him.
"Young Master. How are you feeling? Does it hurt anywhere? Just give me some minutes, I'll call the doctor."
Adonis held her wrist and said,"No need, Rosie. I'm good. Just ask someone to prepare my bath."
"Please eat first Young Master."
"Let me take a bath first. I feel too heavy."
"Understood."
After a while some maid came and prepared his bath. Rosie took him inside.
"You all may go out now."
"Let someone accompany you today, Young Master."
"I can't be comfortable Rosie. Please try and understand."
Rosie thought for a while and said, "Then I'll say at the door. If you need anything please call me."
Adonis gave her a small smile with a nod.
After Adonis took the bath, he was taken downstairs to have breakfast by Rosie.
The table without Isolde was lit up with chattering. Today even Drusilla was there.
They seemed to be talking about something really interesting.
".....queen?
"No, Silla. Since male cannot give birth they aren't made into the Queen. Queens are those whose son or daughter is the Crown Prince or Princess. Males can be made into Male Empress whose position is the same as the Queen during their husband's rule. But when the Crowned Child succeeds the throne, they'll be second in status after the Queen."
Drusilla oh-ed at Juno's explanation.
She gave her a kiss on her cheeks and said,"Sister Juno is so intelligent and beautiful and kind."
Then her eyes landed on Mila and said,"Sister Mila too."
Lucia cleared her throat.
She turned towards her and said,"Of course, Sister Lucia too."
All of them smiled at her and caressed her.
They finally noticed the Adonis who was smiling watching them.
Juno stood up and walked towards him.
"Ado, are you okay? Why did you come down, you should rest. Have breakfast in your room."
All of them surrounded him with a worried expression like Juno's.
"I wanted to walk and have breakfast here, with you all. I'm good, really."
Mila said,"Says the guy who was knocked out for three days. You should rest."
Adonis widened his eyes in shock.
"Three day?"
All of them nodded.
Juno spoke,"Okay, sit down for now. Let's have breakfast first. You haven't had much for three days."
All of them went to their seats.
"Let me serve you."
"It's okay, sister. I'll do it myself. I've missed our breakfast for a long time."
All of them nodded.
Adonis was serving himself food when Druailla happily said,"Brother is going to be an Empress."
"Which brother?"
"You, brother."
Adonis didn't think much about it and asked,"How?"
"Brother is going to marry the future King."
"Ummm. The future King of our Country, Maximus."
As soon as that name entered Adonis's ears, the plate on his hands slipped, and fell on the floor, shattering into numerous pieces.
