Chapter 9 - knowing Irene ll

After having lunch in the garden with Irene, she showed me the rest of the castle, the training ground, King's court room as well as the Queen's court room, maids quarters, stables, the king large private bathtub, public library which is used by the royal family or royal guests.We walked back to King's chamber after the tour

" Ah I've never in my life seen a castle this big" I said laying on the bed breathing heavily

" Now I wish I was an immortal like you"

"You're perfect honey, I wish I was like you" Irene said sitting on the couch, I looked at her and I could tell she meant it

"Irony of life, you wish to be like me?" I touched myself

" Immortals like you always remind us that we are beneath them, fragile , dumb, stupid and weak, I have never believed them till today i couldn't even walk the entire castle without taking a break and you wish to be me?"

"Yes I do , I know human are weak but"

"Humans are weak not me" I said

"What's the difference?" She asked

"There is a lot, I'm Shara not human "

"You said it yourself Shara that you couldn't walk the entire castle so you are weak "

"I'm not, in my defense I haven't eaten well for days you don't expect me to be perfectly fine it's like telling a vampire not to take blood " I said

"Fine let's say it's because you haven't eaten, I will let this slide" Irene said giggling

"Why did you want to be like a human?"

"Wish Shara, I don't want to be human seeing you it really does sucks" she said pretending to throw up

"But you just said "

" Yeah yeah yeah, the thing is I don't make friends with humans because you watch your friends die while you get to live plus that food you ate looks delicious if I should eat that it will taste bland"

" Oh I never thought of that, if it taste bland then what do you eat?"

I asked because I know she's not a vampire neither is she a normal fairy like the people in green valley, they eat food like humans at same time eats edible and non edible plants

" Now that's enough let's go have our bath" she said

"Right here?"

"Oh gosh, stop acting like a novice Shara, I'm a girl also, there's nothing to be shy about "

" Bathing with you is not a problem, this is the King's room " I said

" And the king is my ??" She asked

"Brother " I answered

"Good this isn't the first time I've had my bath here, I bath here sometimes when he is not around"

" And he is fine with it?"

" Of course I'm his sister, the reason my brother hates women aside his past, is when they push themselves or try to seduce him "

So what she's trying to say is that he hates women that throw themselves at men

Ah that explains why he almost strangled me to death, that is exactly what I should do perhaps he will let me go.

"So let's go bath" she said trying to take off her dress

"No " I shouted

" No you can't bath here , if you bath here before that was then, now I and Dragan bath together in that washroom, it's our matrimonial washroom "

"Wow I need to get myself a man, still I'm going to bath here, you just came here yesterday how then did you both start bathing together?"

" If I remember correctly we arrived yesterday but it wasn't yesterday we met

Dragan has seen all of me and I've seen all of him also"

" I've seen what"

I heard a manly voice behind me and I turned to him ignoring my racing heart

"Oh hi darling I was just telling Irene not to make use of our matrimonial washroom " game on king Dragan I said inwardly

DRAGAN (POV)

"Oh hi darling I was just telling Irene not to make use of our matrimonial washroom "

I stared at the lady dumbfounded to make sure I wasn't day dreaming I squeezed Dan's hands

Earlier we had just finished checking the borders when I decided to retire to my room and Dan followed me to take Irene

Reaching for the door knob all I heard before entering the room was 'Dragan has seen all of me and I've seen all of him also'

And now ' matrimonial washroom?'

"Don't tell me you are in support brother" Irene said

" Do what you want Irene, I need to rest I'm tired"

"Is that all you have to say? Why do I have this feeling that you both are hiding something from me? My brother I know can't suddenly be this lovely"

"There's one thing that is constant in life Irene" bluebell said

" And what's that "

"Change, hi grandpa" she said waving at Dan

In all my lifetime there's only one trouble in the world and that's me but now it's double trouble

"Come let's go Irene, I don't need another trouble today, I've had enough"

"Okay sugar plum, good night Shara oh I mean do a good job tonight Shara" she said winking before leaving

Do a good job tonight? What does she mean

" Should I tell the maids to prepare your bath?"

" No" I answered

"Oh, then I should help unbottun your shirt?"

" No I will be fine" I said trying to figure out what she's up to, I watched her as she went to the bed with her clothes on at same covering herself with blanket

" It get hot at night during this season, you should take off those clothes and wear something light " saying that I went to the washroom to bath even though I had done that in my private washroom, right now I need to keep my beast calm because for the past years now he has been asleep and suddenly woke up yesterday and for some reason i can't seem to tame it
