The Royal Revenge
Chapter 204: How Dare You!

Her canines dug so deep into his skin that she even tasted his blood in her mouth. It tasted strange, and it vaguely reminded her of the scent of the undead. The texture was thicker than human blood, sticking to her throat and making her gag all the more.

In short, it was a horrid thing to have in one’s mouth.

"Ow!" Aleksander yowled as he yanked his hand out of her mouth. "What was that for?"

Blood dripped from his wounded fingers. He brought them to his mouth and licked them, immediately healing. It wasn’t that deep anyways.

"Get your hands off of my mouth, husband," Elys hissed at him. "Fuck me, do what you like, but I will not have your hands inside my mouth. It is far too demeaning!"

A lopsided grin lifted the corner of Aleksander’s mouth. He chuckled a bit and his golden eyes turned dangerously cold.

"If not my hand, then would you have my dick inside your mouth?" he asked her.

He had suddenly stopped moving his waist, his entire length still buried deep inside Elys.

She huffed as she heard his question, and saw the challenging look he gave her.

"Well? Would you do that instead, wife?" he asked.

Elys didn’t know what came into her. Remembering she had the strength to, she broke the ribbon Aleksander tied haphazardly around her wrists. Aleksander was taken aback, as somehow she suddenly twisted her body so she’d have her back on the table.

Elys hooked her legs around his waist, her hands shooting for Aleksander’s collar. She pulled him towards her, her lips crashing into him with much force. Her husband’s eyes widened, struck with awe and surprise with her agility and flexibility.

How did she even do all of those without him completely pulling out his hard erection from inside her?

Was she some kind of circus performer in her past life? The swift motion that she had executed made his groin tingle with the exquisite sensation of her flesh tightening around his shaft. It was erotic, and quite exhilirating too.

If they weren’t even in the middle of making love then he would have probably clapped and whistled with her incredible feat.

Elys deepened their kiss, her tongue bravely shooting inside his mouth. He retaliated just as intensely, his tongue dancing with hers, saliva mixing with every wet and wild kiss.

After what felt like eternity, their kiss broke off with Elys’ hands still gripping his collar, almost choking him even.

"I love... your rough ways, my queen," he said, his voice out of breath.

"Don’t look at me like I am someone you can demean," she scowled at the vampire king.

Aleksander’s eyes shook with the words his wife said to him.

"Wife, I would never demean you," he said.

He felt his heart constrict with how she had perceived his look on her. He never intended for her to see him that way. At this very moment in his life, Aleksander might as well have forgotten his own goals as he set his mind to fulfill Elys’ wishes.

He reached out a hand to cup his wife’s face. His eyes glistened as he felt himself turn soft for her.

"You are what I think of day and night. I have thrown away my pride for you, given you what you asked, change my ways just so you would stay by my side," he told her.

"Aleksander..." she muttered under his voice.

She was literally blown away by what he told her. Why did he have to say those words with much conviction?

His eyes were all serious, his gaze piercing to her soul. She had not thought them to come to this kind of conversation.

Why was he so emotional? She didn’t want emotions to overcome her choices. Of course, the pleasures of the flesh has taken away a bit of her reasons, but sex for pleasure wasn’t the same with sex because of love.

"Don’t speak like that, husband," she spoke as she steered her eyes away from him.

She knew she couldn’t reciprocate his feelings if what he said was true to the heart. She knew that she would not.

That she should not.

Aleksander was looking at her with love in his eyes. Elys should have been thinking to jump into the chance, but this time around was unnerving to her.

All their other experiences before had always been thoughtless, if not at all full of hatred when they first started.

The young king noticed Elys’ eyes still wouldn’t look into his face. He touched her chin and gently guided her to face towards him.

"You are the bane of my existence, Elys," Aleksander said. "Don’t you even think that I would look at you as anyone lower than me. You are my equal, but I would not hesitate to worship you, my one and only queen."

Aleksander hugged her and the sex had been forgotten as Elys stiffened at her husband’s heartfelt confession.

They have forgotten everything else and were only too focused on themselves that they couldn’t even hear the knocks that came from Aleksander’s doors.

On the other side, Cordelia had rushed over as soon as she heard of what happened to Elys at her office.

She had been calling out Elys’ name several times already, but there had been no answer. She could hear muffled sounds on the other side, but she couldn’t tell what they were talking about or what was happening inside.

"Open this," Cordelia turned to the knight guarding Aleksander’s office.

"We can’t do that, lady," the knight sternly said. "The King and Queen are inside and haven’t called us yet. It is their privacy that you will intrude should you insist."

"There must have been wrong inside. Why are they not answering to my calls?" Cordelia argued.

The knights didn’t pay her heed to open the door to Aleksander’s office.

They turned their face away from her and disregarded the maidservant even existed in their presence at all.

Cordelia clicked her tongue.

They were not taking her seriously just because she was a maidservant. More so because she was a human maidservant.

Her eyes turned to the door and her skin crawled. She had a bad feeling with what was happening inside. Usually they wouldn’t lock the doors if they were only discussing political issues within the kingdom.

But a locked door and an obvious enchantment to make the room sound proof had her heart racing with tension.

She had never trusted Aleksander from the very beginning. A vampire was never someone the old woman would ever let her guard down with. With that in mind, Cordelia needed to see Elys was safe.

Especially if she considered what happened earlier with her exploding door.

The old woman must have gone crazy. She turned towards the knight who wasn’t looking at her. Her hands swiftly moved towards his belt, her target being the sword hanging beside him.

Unsheathing the sword, Cordelia raised the blade and without skipping a beat, hit the doorknob.

It goes to say that with her strength as a warrior from the Northern Kingdom, Cordelia easily broke the door. Even without magic, the fallen noble woman was formidable.

"Hey!" the knights shouted in unison.

They were shocked to have seen the human maidservant be so bold to try and steal a weapon from them. But all the more was the fact that she was bold enough to even break in the King and Queen’s privacy.

The knights tried to grab her but Cordelia was too fast for them. She dashed inside and the knights themselves tried to chase and drag her back outside.

"Woman, stop where you are going!" one of the knights shouted at her.

Elys and Aleksander heard the commotion, and the young king scrambled to shield Elys from the intruders. He hugged her close to him, making sure that all her private parts were covered by him. He didn’t mind if his pants were dropped down, exposing his bottoms to the others. He had pride and he knew it was embarrassing, but his Queen was more important.

’I must protect Elys!’ Aleksander thought to himself.

The vampire king wrapped Elys in his arms and he turned his head until his eyes saw the people that disturbed the moment he and his wife shared.

"Who dared to enter without permission?!" the vampire king glared at them, his golden eyes blazing with fury.

He swore to himself that he would immediately have them executed no matter who it was.

May it be a noble or even his trusted secretary who had previously entered without permission as well.

Aleksander laid his eyes on the first person he saw, and the vampire’s fangs bared at Cordelia.

"How dare you!" he hissed at her.
