Sienna looked around the big room."Our new bedroom?" she lifted her head toward Marco and looked into his cold blue eyes. She felt her heart in her neck. It was exciting and scary at the same time."You are the one who saved me?" she look at him in a daze."Marco nodded." I could not keep you that time, the eagles in the army could not keep females, and here the king will surely have you killed. That is why I had to leave you with Voltoire.To give you chance to find a mate in the city. Then I planned to find you again and try to become your mate. But because you became the queen, I had to wait. I was watching you from afar." Marco said coldly.
Sienna smiled at him."So you were always near me." she smiled.
Marco nodded."But I think I got you here into trouble as well." he said darkly, "That was never my intention. I mentioned you to the late Sea Eagle Prince and he must go to search for you in Crystal City. He wanted to take you for himself."
" Is he still in prison?"Sienna asked.
" No he is dead." said Marco and study her face..."Did you like him?"
"No, "said Sienna, "I do not like cowards." she shook her head." I just don't like when people are dying," she said quietly.
Marco was satisfied with her answer and held her arms with his hands dominantly." Sienna, you need to become my queen now, it is the only way how can I protect you, apart from killing out the entire Sea Eagle tribe," he looked at her with a stoic face.
" I understand, "said Sienna quietly.
" I do not like to rush you, but I need to show the bracelet is part of your arm at tonight's banquet." he sighed and looked at her with a longing gaze.
Sienna looked into his deep blue cold eyes." You always watched over me. Do you like me then?"
"More than my life. "he said with his serious and cold face.
"Thank you, I like you too."Sienna's heart warmed up to him and smiled. She was pleased with his answer," Probably he is just used to being serious and stern, and he is hiding his feelings well." she thought and touched his shoulder gently.
Marco bend down to her and planted another cold kiss on her lips, then he picked her up and placed her on the bed. Sienna lay on her back and looked at him curiously. He removed his top armour and revealed a lightly tanned muscular strong body. He come next to her on the bed, put his hand over her eyes and kissed her neck a bit carefully.
Sienna trembled at his touch and took a deep breath. She felt his closeness and it made her a bit dazed. "How did this happen? Getting another mate in a day." she thought and stared at him. Marco was strong, handsome and smelled like pine trees. He looked at her and turned her on her belly gently. "Your gaze makes me burn hot." he said, "I want to be gentle with you," he rasped."Tell me if I'm rough. This is my first time," he said with a tone like he is about to eat lunch or talk about the weather.
"Ok," Sienna whispered and burrowed her head into soft pillows.
Marco was swift and efficient, he played with her body for a while, then he touched her between her thighs with his hand and went straight in. Sienna gasped and straighten her body. He thrust slowly and hold himself back.
"Is ok, "Sienna said, "You can do harder."
Marco took her word and adjusted the pace. Sienna was gasping for breath, his fingers were locked up with her fingers next to her head. She felt the waves of pleasure mixed with slight pain, he was a bit stern after all. Sienna felt like her mind just slipped away and her body was surrendered completely under Marco's strong body. Sienna felt like she was part of him. She felt like she is flying in ecstasy, and then his movements stopped. He lay on her body supporting himself halfway and kissed her neck again. Sienna opened her eyes and she saw the golden eagle bracelet sink into her skin. Sienna smiled tiredly. Marco lay next to her and she put her head on his strong shoulder and rested.
Sienna and Marco lay in an embrace. She kissed his strong muscular shoulder and smiled at him. He looked deep into her eyes." I'm so happy to finally have you, Sienna," he said seriously.
Sienna giggled and kissed his lips." He is kind of ok," she thought.
"Let's get ready," said Marco and stood up from the bed. Sienna stood up as well. It was a deep night already. They got ready for the banquet, Sienna wore a beautiful sleeveless blue robe with a silver belt and Marco grey and silver light armour. "Eagles are too soldiers-like."Sienna sighted in her mind.
Marco held Sienna's hand as they went into the Throne Room, there were tables with raw food and a lot of soldiers. They saluted the king and the new queen.
The banquet was extremely boring, due absolute lack of females, there was Sienna only and Marco held her hand tight at all times, most eagles dispersed quickly after eating some food, which was like plates of raw meat on the table. After a while, Marco also took Sienna back to the bedroom. Sienna sighed and looked at him. Marco gave her a plate of fruit and a few bread buns." Eat my queen, you must be starving after today." he said kind of gently.
" Thank you."Sienna smiled, she sat on the bed and started to eat. Marco took off his clothes apart from his trousers and watched her eat. Sienna glanced at him with a full mouth." Do you want to sit next to me?"She asked gently. She still looked at him with wide eyes, trying to get used to her new mate.
He sat her on the bed and watched her eat. She finished the fruit and he reached to touch her hand. Sienna smiled, so he kissed her neck. Sienna kissed him back and looked at him with a soft smile. Marco locked his eyes with hers." I need to keep you here for three days now, "he said..."Then you can go back home." he said a bit unsure.
Sienna looked into his cold blue eyes, "You can get me every fourth week for 5 days." she said."If you like." she blushed.
"I do."Marco nodded.
"But feel free to visit me anytime you desire." she smiled sweetly at him..."I'm yours as well after all."
Marco nodded and squeezed her hand. She was like a beautiful mirage to him. He was getting used to having her so close.
"So what are we going to do now?" Sienna asked.
"We mate," said Marco and kissed her.
Sienna kissed him back."Do you think we can sleep a bit first? I'm really tired, is almost early morning." she looked at him pleadingly.
Marco nodded and tucked her into bed. "Sleep, my queen." he put his hands on her eyes. Sienna relaxed under his hand and fell asleep. Marco watched her for a bit and stood up. He went to the big window and watch the raising sun. It was a beautiful sight as the sun rise over the mountains and pine forests, but Marco watched seriously. His new life as a king started. His mission was simple. Protect his queen and make his tribe great!
Sienna slept till lunchtime. She was very tired. When she woke up, she saw Marco sitting on the floor next to the bed and reading some parchments.
"Good morning." she smiled a bit unsure. Marco kissed her hand. "Come eat some lunch." he got ready for her mix of fruits, berries and some plain rice.
Sienna looked at him. "Can I go to the bathroom first?" she still felt so unsure around him, because he always looked so cold. He was really an iceblock of a man.
Marco nodded."Go."
Sienna got ready and come back to eat. She ate the food and watched Marco reading thru the parchments. He was having ink and feather next to him and he was crossing some writings resolutely.
Sienna looked at him. "Do you think we can go walk outside for a bit?" She asked curiously. Marco shook his head still reading."This city is full of males. There are no females here. It will be not right for me to show you off outside."
"So where are your tribe females?" Sienna asked.
"They live in cities we guard. We ask for one male eagle baby, which grows with the mother and her mates and comes here when it is able to change into the eagle as a man. We live like an army here. If the males want to mate they have to sneak out to their mates. But if they are caught sneaking, they will be punished." he said coldly.
"That doesn't seem right."Sienna shook her head. "But don't your eagles miss having females in their lives?"
"They got kind of used to it. "Marco nodded."The previous king went crazy and wanted to kill off all females after the first child, so we took them away and hid them in cities around. We had no other choice."
"But why did you not fight the king?"Sienna looked at him with big eyes.
"I got no reason to fight him, I helped my mates to hide their females and I was stationed in Crystal City anyway." he shook his shoulder coldly.
Sienna nodded and her face went serious. "But now, you can change that. You can make a space for females here too and your people will have a choice where to live."
Marco nodded and lifted the parchments."First I need to change the laws."
Sienna smiled."I will be happy to help with anything you need and my other mates too." She noted.
Marco nodded his head. He knew Sienna's mates." Can we please let them know, that I'm here?" Sienna bit her lips.
