A pair of arms wrapped themselves around him pulling him against her cushy chest.
"Master, are you alright?" whispered a familiar voice soothingly.
Zenyph relaxed as soon as his nostrils registered Lynette's scent. It was comforting knowing she was beside him supporting him physically and mentally. He buried his head in her shoulder, and closed his eyelids, trying to block out reality. Zenyph couldn't see it but Lynette had the brightest smile on her face.
"Lynette did you really kill her for me?" asked Zenyph suddenly after minutes passed in silence.
Lynette caressed his hair gently humming an unfamiliar melody. She nodded in affirmation, confirming that yes indeed she indeed killed the human woman for him.
"Are you upset? Disappointed?" added the obsidian-haired maiden sounding slightly concerned.
The silver haired prince pondered her question carefully choosing his next words carefully. He didn't want to offend his favorite maid. He valued her opinion greatly despite their different views on certain issues such as killing innocent girls like Alice.
"Not really, I cared about Alice and I think we could have had a wonderful future together but I love you more than her. I wouldn't have done what you did though. Alice deserved better, I wanted to give her the world but now that chance is gone." admitted Zenyph solemnly.
Lynette nuzzled her face into the crook of Zenyph's neck affectionately rubbing herself against him. She loved the scent emanating off the dragon prince. It was intoxicating and made her weak in the knees whenever they cuddled up close together. She would've happily stayed like that forever if time permitted. However, she knew Zenyph needed to grieve properly and she couldn't just monopolize her master's affections forever.
"But Lynette," said Zenyph after he lifted his head staring deep into her eyes.
"Yes, master?" answered Lynette obediently.
Zenyph leaned forward capturing her plump lips with his own initiating a passionate kiss. Their tongues battled each other fiercely for dominance with neither side giving way. They fought for supremacy until both parties were left exhausted. Zenyph broke away first gasping for oxygen greedily gulping huge amounts of air.
Lynette licked her lips satisfied with the results and pecked his cheeks lovingly.
"Don't you ever kill someone I care about again. Got it? This is the only time I am allowing this. The only time." ordered the dragon prince with a hint of killing intent.
He stared intently into the ruby eyes belonging to his beloved companion watching for any signs that she was lying or deceiving him. Luckily, her reaction told him she was sincere and not just playing games with his heartstrings. He hugged the maid tighter, refusing to release her until she promised to obey his orders faithfully.
"You will be punished if you touch Asura, Norena, or Hina." emphasized Zenyph sternly.
"Asura is already bonded, I can't lay a hand on her. Norena is your sister and Hina is your mother. I would never hurt them." replied Lynette as if stating the obvious facts about the three women.
Zenyph smirked slightly relieved hearing the obsidian haired angel's reply.
"Zenyph why did you kill Audrey though? Wouldn't it simply have been better to immobilize her?" asked the half vampire as she stared at the pair of headless corpses.
"Simple, she hurt you and no one harms you while I live." declared Zenyph adamantly.
"Is my safety more important than a potential political crisis from killing nobility? You do realize elves hold grudges for a long time" Lynette pointed out worriedly.
"Fuck them." replied Zenyph carelessly shrugging off her concerns.
"No, I am serious master. You could start a war with the elves, are you prepared for such a drastic action?" Lynette continued pressuring Zenyph to reconsider his rashness.
Zenyph snorted and ignored her warnings completely. His pride wouldn't allow him to admit that she was right, so instead he chose to remain stubborn, insisting that everything would work itself out in time.
"You're really a bad influence Lynette, '' teased Zenyph fondly.
Lynette laughed at Zenyph's ridiculous claims.
"Me? A bad influence? Whatever do you mean? I'm simply telling you how things will play out." retorted Lynette pretending to be oblivious.
Zenyph chuckled softly, as he enjoyed their banter immensely. He tightened his hold around her waist bringing their bodies together. He sighed contently, every second spent in her presence is bliss.
"You know, I think killing Alice made me love you more." murmured Zenyph honestly as he brushed away stray strands of her jet-black hair, tucking them neatly behind her ears.
"Really? Does that mean you won't punish me?" questioned the obsidian haired woman hopefully.
Zenyph tapped his finger thoughtfully as he contemplated what he should do to the beautiful servant currently pressed against him. Then it hit him. A brilliant idea popped into his mind making him chuckle mischievously.
"I have a better idea... What if I…? Will you enjoy that?" purred Zenyph seductively as he placed gentle kisses along her neck and slowly trailing lower.
Lynette gasped softly, her heart raced as excitement coursed through her veins.
"Oh~ my prince, take me please. Take me." begged the obsidian-haired maid eagerly.
"It'll be my pleasure, my princess." breathed Zenyph huskily.
With that, he scooped his personal maid off the floor and carried her bridal style to his bedroom.
