Chapter 55: She cared for him.

Her apology took Ahmar by surprise but then his gaze softened several degrees as he looked at her lowering her head and looking anywhere but him. When Xander told him that Bree was feeling guilty towards him, he thought that his aide was looking too much into it but now that he was looking at Bree’s expressive face which was different from the cold, blank and expressionless one —- he came to a sudden realisation that Bree was indeed guilty towards him.

"What was that your majesty?" Though he heard it clear the last time, he still asked Bree to repeat it causing the latter to glare at him but nonetheless, she still sucked in a breath and said, " I shouldn’t have punished you by sending you to the dark tower, I —- I never intended to hurt you, just scare you a little so that you will not be as ribald as you were in the afternoon. That wasn’t acceptable to me."

" But your majesty used to like it before—-"

"Before was before but now it’s different!" said Bree as she clenched her fingers, she wasn’t the dragon Queen who was cold and raunchy as a hooligan, she was Brianna Cage, a woman of the twenties who didn’t like coarse attitude and flamboyant actions as such. "I do not wish to be disrespected like that anymore, I might have been used to it..might have liked it but now I... I am changed, I have grown up and have walked past those stupid and childish actions of mine."

It was the most pathetic excuse in the history of all excuses but Bree had no other choice. She couldn’t just say, ’ oh that was the old Bree, now her soul went poof and I am the one who replaced her,’ can she? If she so much as let these men find out her identity they will burn her on a stake and then send her soul crashing back into hell or heaven whichever place she belonged to and honestly, Bree didn’t want to die young as she did in the past life.

With that, she puffed out her chest and started to talk even more confidently than ever, so what if she was telling a lie..her mother used to say that as long as you speak the lie confidently, even a lie would become the truth. And it wasn’t as if she was lying to harm someone was she? She was lying to save her life, so there was no way anyone can blame her, right? Right!

" Anyway, what I was saying was that you cannot touch me in public, hug me, hold me and most importantly..you cannot... you can..cannot talk about doing that ..thing with me." She said with a flushed face, only god knows how those words tormented her for an entire day. She should have been disgusted by the very thought but instead, she wasn’t—- those words seemed to both horrify and excite her and honestly, that was just as scary as her getting disgusted by it.

Ahmar raised a brow as he carefully pondered over what Bree said and finally came to a realisation as to what his wife was actually getting embarrassed about—- " You mean to say the line where I said I will f*ck you in front of—-"

" Shh, Shh, Shhh, Shhhhh!" Bree jumped on her spot as she looked left and right worried that he would be heard by Xander or someone else, as she flailed her hands and stopped him from speaking any further. " What are you doing, what if someone hears you? What will they think?"

" What will they think your majesty?" asked Ahmar enjoying this new Bree who had so many expressions to show.

Bree hesitated and then with her hands twitching slightly and with a nervous expression whispered, " They will think that we have some sort of fetish of being watched while doing t.. that. So, don’t speak such words, what if they hear you?"

Xander who was standing outside heard everything and then coughed lightly as he walked away, now he understood why the Queen punished his master. He walked calmly for a while until he reached the end of the corridor and once he reached the end of the corridor, he jumped up and started banging his fists on the wall.

Godddd! For others, an axe, unfortunately, falls on their feet but his master, that idiotic master —- he actually rushes ahead and kicks his feet on a fallen axe! How can he say such words to the Queen of all people? Even Third consort that flirtatious pervert wouldn’t dare say such words to the Queen!

No wonder he was thrown in the prison! Idiot! Why did he have such a master who has as much survival instinct as a squirrel drunk on wine?

Ahmar didn’t know that his survival instinct was being questioned by his aide instead he burst out laughing upon hearing Bree’s words. God, she was so adorable, so f*cking adorable—- now he didn’t want to share this Bree with anyone, even more, she was like the sweetest thing that he wanted to keep next to him and never let anyone see her ever again.

While laughing, he pulled one of his wounds but this time he didn’t stifle the gasp of pain like he used to instead he let out a soft, " Oww."

Bree’s brows jumped as she sat down on the bed and carefully turned Ahmar around and frowned when she saw the blood oozing out of his wound and staining his bandage. " Why are you moving around so much? Stay put."

" Do you feel sorry for me, your majesty?" asked Ahmar as he looked at Bree with an expectant gaze, as if her answer meant the world to him.

Her gaze flickered as she lowered her eyes and said, " Don’t move, I will change your bandage."

Though Ahmar was greatly disappointed, his disappointment didn’t last long when he noticed how careful Bree was with his wounds as she changed his bandages. Not once did she try to be harsh with him, and every time he made even the softest groan, her fingers will pause and then she will start applying ointment on his wounds but softer than before.

And that was how he found out that Bree didn’t feel sorry about him but she cared about him.
