rylin wanted to protest but I did not give her the ti to. I moved to the washing alone before taking my clothes off and just as I was left in my chemise the ladies in waiting entered.
Once I was ready to go out I moved to wear the cabinet for the jewellry were. There was the Crown that was presented to by Chiara.
"Place this in a box very carefully," I told Dorothy.
"But this was given to you!" rilyn objected. "If you give this back then this would convey that you do not like the person especially when you are going to be the future queen."
I knew that. I also knew what I was doing but this was important because this was the only thing I could use as leverage.
Dorothy placed it in a box and I supervised. "Give it to ," I said once she played the cover of the box, caging the crown in.
Taking it from her I want to wear I rember his chambers were. It was obvious that the king was not going to go to the Grand court room so soon. The proceedings would start after breakfast and breakfast had a lot of ti yet. Not only that but since King Darius was here amongst us the breakfast was going to be a grand event.
Solomon and Bert glanced at the box in question but did not vocalise it as this started to walk behind . Turning around the corner I could see his doors before Solomon walked past and knocked on them. "Her Highness, Lady Genevieve is here." She murmured when the door opened and Nokul bowed in front of .
His eyes again remained on the floor as he held the door wide enough for to enter with the crown in my hands.
"His Highness will be out in a few monts. I have just finished." He bowed and walked inside what I assud to be a bathing area.
Next when he ca out directly outside the chambers, Tristan followed him only to stop at the threshold of the waiting area and stare at .
I raised the box and my hand before pulling the lid to show him the contents inside to him.
"You do not like it?"
"No, I find it to be very nice," I said as I placed it on the table in the sitting area. "But I do not think I am worthy of such a title and Crown." I clasped my hands in front of .
He narrowed his eyes. "So you bring it back?"
I nodded in confirmation.
"Take it back Genevieve," he sighed and rubbed his head, "I have a few troubles that I need to look into. Please take the crown back."
He looked stressed.
"Did I arouse you in the morning?" I blurted out and his head snapped up so quickly. His eye twitched slightly and before I knew it he stood in front of letting take a surprised step back.
"Wh-what was that?" I stamred and pointed to the place where he stood before. "You were there and I saw that!"
"I know and please do not yell, it hurts." He said with a small wince. "Also, Vampires and wolves are quicker."
I gathered that. I nodded quickly.
"Who told you about that?" He asked with his hands behind his back.
"rylin did." I told him honestly. "I firmly believe that you should have told about this."
He sighed and folded his hands in front of his chest. Lowering his head for a mont or two he raised it back, " I should have. In fact I would have if the word for not appeared in the hallway."
"About that," I rembered, "what happened?" I just wanted to know if he would tell or not.
He stared at for what seed to be the longest of ti. Sothing flashed his eyes and it was gone quickly, not giving enough ti to recognise it.
"We do not know here but Darius will look into it." He answered. "It is his citizen that is in question, so he decides."
That took by surprise. He was going to tell everything? "And what happened in the morning when I touched the mark?"
"Exactly what Marilyn told you. Since I knew where you were, you called for mating." He tilted his head as he watched panic.
A mating call?! Now I realise that rilyn had actually sugar coated her words.
"I. . . H-how could I do that?" I gulped. "Did it just happen for to touch the mark?"
He started to nod but stopped. "Co sit," he pointed to the sofa and just as I started to lower myself I heard, "on my lap."
I stopped. "Excuse ?"
He nodded with a smirk and he was already sitting. "If I rember this correctly you agreed to give us a chance which ans-"
"Sitting on your lap was not that." I interrupted him quickly.
He chuckled. "You are not giving the chance to just any king, my love. You are giving the chance to a vampire king."
The words alone sent a shiver up my spine. " Tristan. . ." I pleaded.
"It is you who wants to know," he raised a finger and pointed to and then at himself, "and it is who is providing the information." What he wanted to say was that I had to agree to his whims.
"Would you—"
"No," he answered right away and patted his thigh.
I licked my upper left before plopping myself over his lap and getting it over with. Of course he was going to use this situation to his benefit. I should have seen this coming.
"I love how close we are," he murmured in my ear and I glared at him. We were really close even though I was sitting on his knees and on the verge of falling.
"Stop it," I tell him with sharply, "now tell , what is that I felt in the morning, especially the pressure on my neck."
