Chapter 7 - My Queen

Nyx stared at the lady in front of her and definitely she wasn't human. Because her nails had just grown on their own and her eyes had glowed a bright yellow.

"Hurt me? But I didn't do anything wrong. I merely asked you to leave because you know you don't belong here" Nyx said but was caught off card when Nora appeared in front of her. "Care to say that again?' She asked as Nyx glared at her, as she opened her mouth to speak, she was lifted off the floor as if she weighed nothing.

Millie knew if this matter escalated, that the poor human would be gone in seconds. She ran away quickly to get the king.

"Put me down bitch" Nyx said as she kicked her legs frantically in the air. Nora wrapped her hand around Nyx's neck as she squeezed on it cutting her oxygen in take.

"I'd kill you, I don't care who the fuck you are but Lucien belongs to me and me alone" Nora said as nyx looked at Nora. She saw a strong emotion of possession and she couldn't help but get jealous.

The man she was about to marry was already having something with a mere maid. A maid she once was. She laughed at herself silently.

"What's funny?" the cold voice of Nora snapped Nyx out of her thoughts. Nyx couldn't breathe well as she tapped on Nora's hand but the maid didn't budge.

"What in Lucifer's name is going on here?" Lucien's cold and authoritative voice snapped Nora out of whatever she was thinking. As she turned with an unconscious nyx in her hand. She felt like disappearing but she knew no matter what she did, she wouldn't get away with this.

"M-my king, it is not what you think. I was teaching the human a light lesson, I didn't mean to hurt her" Nora said as Lucien walked towards her in slow strides, his face was devoid of any emotion and he looked extremely upset.

"You ungrateful bitch" he slapped Nora across the face hard as she went flying into the wall. Dropping Nyx who was in her clutches, Lucien was quick to catch her as Nora fell to the floor.

"I have nothing to say to you as of now, but let's pray that my wife, wakes up. If not, I'd kill you and feed your carcass to the crows. Get lost!" Lucien yelled as Nora scrambled to her feets with great difficulty before running off. Millie bowed to Lucien before she went after her dear friend.

Lucien placed nyx in bed as he pulled the bedsheet to cover her. They had just gotten back after she had passed out and yet again he had put her at harm's way. He tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as he nuzzled his face in her neck.

Her unique scent had always put him at ease since the first time they met. She smelt of lavender and cinnamon, he could swear that if she should get injured. He would run mad.

He trailed his tongue from her ear lobe to her chest as he lingered there for a while. He sat up straight, muttering few words as he closed his eyes, opening them as he blew on her.

Nyx felt as if a bucked of cold water had been splashed on her as she sat up. She looked around and saw a pair of silver eyes staring a her, seeing it was Lucien. She relaxed, she didn't want him to feel like she hated him and go to another woman.

Just the thought of it made her uncomfortable. "Are you okay?" Lucien asked her as she stared into space. She took a deep breath as she looked at him.

"When I heard I was getting married, I thought it was to some fat, sweaty and bald man, but you sure are different from what i imagined you know" Nyx said as she laughed at herself. Lucien decided not to talk but listen to her pour out her mind.

"When I was bron, my mother was a queen. She was strong and powerful, I was a princess living a life of peace and wealth. Suddenly everything changed when she was suddenly killed. My father married her best friend, my step mother who felt nothing for me and hated me despite doing nothing wrong.

She never seemed to like me in any way, soon the whole war with your kingdom showed up. I was already suffering over there then when I found myself with you I almost get killed. I expected my wedding day to be full of happiness and pleasure. But with you...I don't know what to feel, Lucien" Nyx looked up at him to meet those silver eyes. Lucien stared at her, his eyes filled with emotions that disappeared as soon as they appeared.

"I won't say this would be an easy road nyx. You're about to rule a whole land filled with monsters and this is just your first trial. Maun would come along the way but I believe that with me by your side, you would be able to rule with an iron fist and by my side in peace and harmony" Lucien said to Nyx. His words made her blush as she looked away.

Lucien pinched her chin with his finger nails as he turned her towards him. He brought his face closer with a smirk.

"I love it when you blush, my queen" Lucien said to Nyx. This had been their first day together, yet the sparks were flying around like bees or should she call it flies?

It might be love at first sight but she might be the only one thinking of it that way. Seeing that Nyx wasn't listening to him, he moved closer to her as he slammed his lips on hers.

Nyx's eyes widened as he tried to pull back but by the moment lost herself in his embrace.
