Chereads / Queen Conquering Prince / Chapter 42 - Taste in women

Chapter 42 - Taste in women

Arjun leaned forward slightly, his curiosity piqued as he regarded Rajesh with a playful glint in his eyes.

"What type of woman do you like, General?" he asked, his tone light but genuine.

The question caught Rajesh off guard, and for a moment, he paused, considering how to respond. He glanced around at the commanders, who watched intently, their expressions a mixture of amusement and intrigue.

Arjun's interest seemed sincere, inviting a candid conversation that felt almost refreshing amid the chaos of war. 

Rajesh cleared his throat, his cheeks flushing slightly.

"I suppose I enjoy the company of those who are more... submissive, my lord," he replied.

"And, if I may be so bold, I find myself quite fond of a woman with, well, ample... assets."

He gestured vaguely in the air, as if outlining the shape of a voluptuous figure. The room fell quiet, and several of the men shifted uncomfortably in their seats, unsure of how to respond to the sudden shift in conversation.

The commanders around them exchanged glances, some trying to suppress their laughter while others feigned shock at the unexpected candidness of the conversation.

Arjun burst into laughter, appreciating the general's straightforwardness.

"Ah, so a man of simple tastes," he replied, amusement evident in his voice.

"Perhaps we can find you one after the war, General." The lighthearted exchange helped to ease the tension in the air, bringing a moment of levity amidst the aftermath of battle.

Rajesh raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Arjun's response.

"What about you, Prince?" he asked, leaning in with a playful grin.

Arjun thought for a moment, recalling the allure of the queen and his stepmothers.

"I like the ones who are hard to get," he replied with a sly smile. "Very hard." 

The commanders exchanged knowing glances, sensing the deeper implications behind Arjun's words. Rajesh laughed heartily, appreciating the challenge in Arjun's preference.

"Ah, a true prince indeed! It's the chase that makes it all the more exciting," he said, nodding in agreement.

The camaraderie between them deepened as they shared this moment, each acknowledging the thrill of the hunt in their own way.

Arjun leaned back slightly, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

"If I have to say," he began, teasingly, "I would prefer someone with big breasts and big ass" 

Rajesh burst into laughter, clearly enjoying the boldness of Arjun's confession.

"Ah, now that's a man who knows what he wants!" he exclaimed, clapping his hand on Arjun's shoulder.

The commanders, still around them, couldn't help but chuckle at the lighthearted banter, a brief respite from the intensity of battle and the weight of leadership.

Rajan, the strategist, joined the conversation with a sly grin.

"Your highness," he said, his tone serious, "I must say, the focus on curves is all well and good, but let's not forget—ass is overrated." 

Arjun chuckled, raising an eyebrow in amusement. "Oh? And what do you suggest we focus on instead, Rajan?" 

With a dramatic flair, Rajan replied, "It's all about the mind, my prince! A clever woman can conquer kingdoms with her wit, far beyond what any physical attribute can offer." 

The laughter continued, the camaraderie in the tent growing stronger as they exchanged banter, the weight of the war momentarily forgotten.

Arjun burst into laughter, shaking his head.

"You deserve to be hanged for that statement, Rajan! What were you thinking?" 

Rajan shrugged playfully, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.

"I admit it, my lord! But let's be real—boobs are better than asses any day!" 

The tent erupted with laughter, the tension of the battlefield momentarily forgotten as the commanders reveled in the lighthearted banter.

Arjun leaned back, a satisfied smile on his face, enjoying the moment of camaraderie amidst the chaos.
