It was myopic to think that the Fae were the only supernatural creatures around, but to think that Maximus was a horse shifter never crossed his mind. No, it was shocking, and it was at this point that everything began to connect and make sense to him.
The reason why the horse Maximus was not able to coexist in a herd and would attack the others without reasoning, she was just not like them. She was far more rare, superior, and powerful.
It was no wonder she ford a telepathic link with Prince Adric and was able to take on his magic, she was no ordinary horse. Maximus was made from the sa mold as the cruel prince, she had dark Fae blood.
Issac was so gripped with shock that he stood still like a statue and one would have thought she had broken him. And that brought him to the question of Maximus' gender, was 'he' a she, or she is a 'he'? It was all confusing. There wasn't much information on horse shifters because they were very, very rare and a myth now.
No, if the king finds out that Prince Aldric's famously fearso horse was a shifter, it was very much going to land him in trouble. Not to ntion that she had dark Fae blood. The only reason Adric was still alive as a dark Fae was because he was a royal but the sa wouldn't be said for Maximus if his or her secret is out. Oh, damn it already.
Issac shifted on his feet uncomfortably knowing that he could not kill Maximus, Part dark Fae or not. He knew how much the cruel prince loved the horse shifter.... wait a minute. Issac was wide-eyed as a thought crossed his mind. Does Prince Aldric know the horse shifter is also a girl? Could it be that the both of them were .....
Issac swallowed numbly and could not finish the rest of his thoughts. His mind flashback to the scene of Aldric petting her back when they were still in the Fae realm. Did Aldric by chance love Maximus the horse like a woman?!
Perhaps Maximus must have been bored from the lack of response from Isaac because she shifted to her half Fae form. And she was naked.
"Gods! No!" Issac wailed, turning the other way and bringing his hand up to his face after a glimpse of what he shouldn't have seen. Would Prince Aldric kill him for mistakenly seeing his woman naked? Issac knew at that mont that he was an endangered man.
"What are you doing?" Maximus asked, seemingly comfortable in her skin.
"Please, be decent," Issac begged her, daring not to look again.
She pursed her lips, "Decent? Ahh, I forget to tell you that any clothes on gets shredded whenever I shift and that was the last clothes I stole from a kind villager miles away. But don't worry, I walk naked all the ti in my horse form, hence it's second nature to ."
Sobody should just kill him at this point, Issac cried out inwardly. This was too much information, neither did he sign up for this amount of stress. Everything about Prince Aldric was trouble and his death was imminent.
"Or wait! I have an idea." Maximus said and moved to pluck two leaves from a tree by her side. She then used one of the leaves to cover her pubic region and the other to cover one of her breasts, leaving the other exposed. And she frowned having seen the flaw in her plan.
"Sadly, I have two hands and can not cover my other nipple." She announced to him without an ounce of sha.
By the gods, Issac pressed a hand to his temple where he could feel a throbbing headache. How did his life turn out like this? Sure, the Fae were notoriously open about sex, but this was Prince Aldric's woman and he didn't want to die yet.
Without a word, Issac made his sword vanish then he hoisted his tunic over his head and took it off, holding it out to her without looking at her naked body.
"Wear it." He told her.
Without any form of refusal, Maximus accepted the tunic from him and wore it.
"You can turn now, shy Fae, I'm decent." There was a hint of amusent in her tone.
Expelling a long breath, Issac hesitantly turned around. He peered at her with one eye first and confird she was no more naked before turning to her fully.
Thankfully, Maximus in her female form was smaller and his tunic fell to her midthigh like a short dress and was much bigger on her fra. However, the tunic was see-through and he could make out the pebbled form of her nipple and it sent a jolt of desire through him.
Issac slapped his cheek ntally, he can't think that. Prince Aldric would kill him if he looks at his woman the wrong way. Hence, he composed himself and with the illusion of calmness, asked her, "What the hell is going on here?"
Maximus shrugged, "It's just as you see it. You passed the test and you get to live."
"W-what?" He choked out. His eyes widened, "Earlier, you -!"
"You resisted my charm and survived. Other people in the past failed and now you get to hang out with ." She declared casually as if she didn't just ntion killing people in the past.
Issac swallowed, "You killed others...?" No, this was too much.
"Of course! I had to protect my secret and they were not worthy enough. Although one did last a week only to betray in the end and tried to sell ..." She flashed her wicked-looking teeth at him, "It was nice chewing his bones."
Oh god, no.
"Where is the prince? Take to the prince. I have to find him now!" He had to find the prince and return to the Fae realm after the errand was over. He couldn't be around these people. They were crazy and twisted from the inside and Issac feared he would be the sa in ti if he hung around them.
"Oh, the master is busy at the mont and hasn't summoned yet. That ans we have a lot of ti to get to know each other, Issac. " She grinned hungrily at him.
Issac's soul left his body.
