Chapter 174: Stop Looking At Me [Bonus Chapter]

Arabella’s stomach growled again so she decided to head to the dining hall. She was sure some food was prepared in case she woke up.

She took a step back when she arrived at Ferdinand and Raymond eating dinner while discussing something about work.

She thought of silently going back to her room and having some food sent to her room instead but the two spotted her. Their ears were too sharp.

"Arabella!" Ferdinand instantly rose.

"Your Majesty," Raymond also rose and greeted her.

"Are you alright?!" Ferdinand checked her from head to foot. The tip of his ears turned slightly red at seeing the hickeys he had left on her neck.

[They both have hickeys. They really did something in Estrella and yet, His Majesty still lied about it.] Raymond internally sighed.

[I knew he wouldn’t be able to hold back. They are newlyweds, after all. I shouldn’t have prohibited His Majesty from visiting her chambers. He still went and found a loophole to not go back on his words. What he promised was not to visit her chambers at night. And he truly didn’t. Instead, he brought Her Majesty to Estrella and consummated with her there. His Majesty is resourceful when he wants something. It seems they did it a lot too since he returned with Her Majesty sound asleep.]

Raymond misunderstood and Arabella couldn’t correct it at all.

But even if she did, who would believe they didn’t consummate when they were all alone in the hot spring? They had indeed done all sorts of stuff too and even left kiss marks on each other.

’If I knew they were here, I would have worn a scarf.’

Arabella covered her hickey with her hair and Ferdinand frowned.

[She truly doesn’t want it to be seen.]

Ferdinand was proudly showing off his and wore clothes in light colors that would allow the hickey on his neck to be even more noticeable.

"I’m sorry I overdid it. I would be more gentle next time. I -"

Arabella covered his mouth and glared at him.

"Stop talking about it in front of other people. And we are in the dining hall," she scolded in a whisper and Ferdinand shrank like a little puppy that got scolded by its owner.

"Right. I’m sorry."

She said she would have her meal in her room instead or in another hall so they could continue what they were speaking about but they asked her to join them instead.

Thus, she ended up having to dine with them.

Arabella thought she would just focus on eating since she was starving but Ferdinand and Raymond’s thoughts distracted her.

[She looked so erotic and adorable as her body spasmed in pleasure due to all the things I was doing to her body. I got too into it and was probably too rough which was why she passed out shortly after.] Ferdinand was worried he overdid it.

She learned from his thoughts that he panicked when she passed out and apparently almost called on Alwin to check on her. But he recalled they were in Estrella. He could check her himself. Moreover, he couldn’t possibly show her to Alwin in her state.

When he examined her, she passed out due to exhaustion and was merely sleeping. They had indeed stayed too long in the hot spring. It was the main cause.

Of course, doing naughty stuff for a while also contributed. She still lacked sleep after all since she only slept at dawn and woke up several hours before lunch.

Arabella pretended to be focused on her food even as Ferdinand kept staring at her.

[Those small gentle hands touched me so erotically earlier.] Ferdinand thought and Arabella flinched.

’Why is he thinking about it here in the dining hall?! Stop staring at me with such thoughts! I’m eating here.’

She suddenly wanted to hide her hands behind her back. Still, she did her best to lift a forkful to her mouth.

[It felt really good. And she used that lovely little tongue to lick my cum on her fingers and swallowed it.]

Arabella almost choked on her food. Thankfully she had swallowed first.

’What the hell is his problem?! How can I eat when he’s staring at me like this while thinking of perverted thoughts?’

She was beginning to regret touching him earlier.

’Was it too early? Should I have not done all those things with him? But we are husband and wife. He would be even more frustrated and jealous of everyone if we do not get intimate in some way.’

[Those lips moaned my name so beautifully as I pleasured her. She liked it, right? She doesn’t seem to be angry at me even after everything we did. Can I do all of those with her again? I want to. I want to kiss her again and hold her in my arms right now.]

"Your Majesty, is there anything you want to tell me?" Arabella gave a polite smile to distract where his thoughts were going.

"Oh, nothing. Please eat your meal. You must have been exhausted and hungry after everything," Ferdinand said as if it was nothing and she wanted to throw a plate at him.

[Look at him making his lies obvious. His statements just now confirmed they did consummate in Estrella. He is forgetting I’m still here and had just been staring at Her Majesty the whole time.] Raymond sighed.

"Then please eat your meal too. It would be a waste if the food got cold," Arabella glanced at his plate which had been untouched since she joined them.

"Right," Ferdinand began to eat his meal again. Then he seemed to realize something.

[Why do I have a hard-on?!] Ferdinand glanced at his crotch. His ears turned red in embarrassment and internally scolded himself for letting his mind wander.

[When did I become this undisciplined?!]

Arabella, sitting on his left, and Raymond, sitting on his right, who were both watching Ferdinand ended up following his gaze. He indeed had one.

[He had a boner just from watching Her Majesty eat?] Raymond blinked repeatedly.

Arabella was wide-eyed and stared at food instead when she realized how truly observant Raymond was.

[Oh, Her Majesty turned red. If they are both acting this shy because of it, they must have done something new. He was looking at Her Majesty’s hands and lips earlier... Huh? Did Her Majesty pleasure him with her mouth and hands?!!]
