"Sleep."
Zerrin murmurs, running his hand through my hair. I fall asleep on my Lord's chest, a smile curling onto my lips.
The ache in between my legs is what I awoke to the next morning. After I fell asleep with Zerrin, I woke up and we fucked many more times after that.
A groan left my lips, pulling the pillow over my head. I'm not getting out of this bed until my family decides to come for a visit.
The grumbling of my stomach forced me out of the bed however, a glance around the room and I knew that I was home.
A heavy sigh left my lips, I don't remember how I got back here. Lord Zerrin most likely sent me back when I fell asleep.
I need to bathe before I eat. A frustrated groan left my lips. I didn't want to, but I couldn't go down there looking like I awoke from the dead.
I'm wearing the dress that I did not put on, and the bruises and bite marks on my skin are still there, and very visible.
I throw the doors to my Chambers open with a flick of my wrist and make sure I close them before making my way to the bathing chambers.
The palace is rather quiet today, probably hungover from the party everyone enjoyed without me. I couldn't complain though, a night with the beast of beasts was very enjoyable.
A smirk curls onto my lips, and a blush creeps up my neck. Very enjoyable.
I'm practically limping to the bathing chambers, between my legs aching painfully. I need to make some tea with healing properties after my bath, I'm sure I can deal with the pain for now.
Steam hit me in the face as I enter the bathing chambers, a smile curling onto my lips.
The water would have been cold if it weren't for the magic that keeps it hot. Slipping off my dress, I leave it on the ground and slip into the hot water.
The hot water soothed my aches and pains, a relieved sigh leaving my mouth. After my bath, I flick my hand, the water dripping from my body and hair vaporizing, instantly drying myself.
I'm too hungry to not be lazy about it after spending hours upon hours with Zerrin.
I slip on a floor-length red dress that trailed the floor as I walked with a slit up the left. The neck went just below my breasts, showing off plenty of cleavages.
Dark red laced flowers are scattered around it. I left my feet bare, in between my legs were too sore to handle walking in heels for today.
Making my way to the kitchen, I pick up a few magical healing herbs on the way. Boiling some water by muttering a simple spell under my breath, I mixed the herbs in the boiling water with a spoon before making my way to the dining room.
I take my place at the head of the table as usual. Bringing my cup of tea up to my lips, I take a sip, before placing it down.
"Hello, cousin, finally you are back," Jumaine said. "It's been three days since the birthday ceremony, I was very worried you were dead."
His voice startles me slightly, my eyes widening in shock.
"Three days!" I exclaim, turning to Jumaine's grinning face. "I was away for three days!"
That explains why I feel so hungry! It did not feel like three days while I was there. 'You were amazing in bed, Zerrin,' I thought internally.
You just didn't think to feed me within those three days I was willingly fucking you.
"Well, I am certain the fifth beast is in favor of you." Is
Jumaine slipped into the chair. "Now, tell me all about your time with him, and don't miss out on any details for my sake!"
I arch a brow at him, crossing my arms over my chest. "And why would I ever tell you what went on for three days straight?" I ask, tilting my head to the side.
"Well, for starters I am your one and only cousin, not to mention your best friend." Jumaine gives me a grin, pulling my cup of tea over towards him.
"You are not my friend, Jumaine," I slap his hands away from my cup and bring it back towards myself before taking a sip. "If you weren't my cousin I wouldn't even acknowledge your existence."
"You, my dear cousin have become a bitch," he uttered. "Under the beast's influence I presume," he said.
"At least she isn't like her mother." My uncle strolls into the room, a scowl on his face.
I lowered my eyes and continued eating. My mother had sold me off to the beasts of the flying palace. I can never forget that nor can I ever learn to forgive her.
After breakfast, and with a full stomach, I make my way back to my Chambers. In between my legs weren't sore anymore, thanks to the tea I drank before breakfast.
Slowing to a stop as I near my room, the door is slightly ajar. I did not leave it open, I made sure I closed it on the way out as usual.
Materializing a dagger made out of the red mist of my magic, I cautiously walk towards my Chambers. If that's my cousin snooping around my chambers, I will kill him.
Opening the door slightly, so it was wide enough for me to fit through. I enter the room. The curtains were closed, making it harder for me to see.
I wave my free wrist lazily, lightning the lanterns and candles scattered around my room. It was still a struggle to see, the shadows seemed to be purging the light.
A warmth washed over my back, and the door shut loudly. Spinning around I held the blade to his throat, piercing the skin enough to draw a little blood.
"Little one, I assure you, attempting to kill me will not be a wise choice," Zerrin's demonic voice echoed around me.
A gasp left my lips, yanking my arm down, and backing up, staring up at, my Lord and master.
"Oh! My Lord!" I shouted in fear and shock at seeing him. "I am so sorry! I thought you were my idiot cousin," I defended.
The dagger fell from my hands, exploding into red misty magic as it touched the ground.
Panic coursed through me as I watched blood slowly drip from the small wound I inflicted on his neck.
Ripping off a piece of my dress, I held it up to his throat, trying to wipe away the blood from his neck gently.
"No need to panic, Little one. You thought I was your idiot cousin after all." Zerrin chuckles, wrapping his hands around my wrists and moving them down. "A simple case of mistaken identity!"
I deserve to be punished for what I have done.
