Chapter 197 Just Kissing
The Queen’s dark face morphed into sothing darker, uglier. "See? This is what I an! That woman... that woman is really making angry! It should be Gavril! This should be his goal all along! Gavril must have staged the assassination! He did it to spite ! He knew I would die with Lucinia living her!" Slowly, tears started pooling in the Queen’s eyes. How could she stand this? How could she let Lucinia stay in this place?
"Mother! Calm down... can we calm down for a bit?" Prince Kuzma imdiately started comforting his mother before he started to talk about ways of getting rid of Lucinia. Of course, everything was useless as the next day, Lucinia visited the Queen.
This was sothing that they already expected. However, the look on Lucinia’s face almost made the Queen explode in anger. The worst part of this is the fact that she needed to maintain the smile on her face while inwardly thinking about ways to kill her while Lucinia was sleeping.
"You an��� he left?" the Queen didn’t hide the surprise in her eyes when she heard that Duke Mo actually left Lucinia in the palace so he could go to the west. Who would have thought that the Duke would leave his wife alone in the tiger’s lair? She wondered if this was really true.
"Yes, your majesty. The Duke needed to attend to so important things. So he left for a while." Lucinia uttered and faked a sad face. Then she drunk the once again poisoned tea that the Queen gave her. The Queen had been giving her two poisoned teas twice now therefore, the effects don’t work on her.
"I— I never thought that you would actually agree to stay here without him."
"I don’t have a choice," Lucinia uttered, she lowered her head. "I guess so things are more important than ." Lucina’s voice was low before she let out a sigh.
"Oh, dear... I am so sorry to hear that. I completely understand your sentints. Do you miss him that much? If you want... I can send my servants to cheer you up. A hot bath would always help relax. And perhaps... would you like to send Zach to accompany you for the night? After all, you needed soone to guard you, no?" the Queen’s voice was full of concern as she reached out and held Lucinia’s hand.
"Zach?" She pursed her lips. On the outside, Lucinia looked really sad and confused. While inwardly, she was only rolling her eyes. She had to force Mo Li to hide just so she could get close to the Queen. When Mo Li agreed to help her, she rembered smiling so sweetly. However, the man actually said that he needed paynt.
And what better paynt than her body?
Mo Li once again used the excuse that vampires don’t need rest to be able to have his paynts! The shalessness of that man really made her speechless. Lucinia tried to reason out, telling him that she was different, but Mo Li only laughed at her and said that it was the only way that he would agree to hide in the anti.
Mo Li specifically told her that he would never let anyone hurt her again. While Lucinia didn’t understand why the Duke included the word ’again’, she chose to nod and agree with his terms just so she could avoid any more argunts.
To be honest, Lucinia doesn’t really like arguing with Mo Li. She felt that the man’s eyes were too sincere, and it scared her. Especially now that it was already established that Mo Li knew her from the previous world. "I don’t think that it needed your majesty. I can defend myself. I don’t need Zach to protect ."
"Oh... my dearest. I know you were sad about Zach, but I think the man had regretted enough. He must have realized that losing you was quite hard. " Smiling, the Queen said. Inwardly, the Queen was indeed very happy. Of course, this was because Mo Li left but because Lucinia was actually useless without the man! The last ti that she saw Lucinia, she rembered her being really nasty and demanding.
At first, she thought it was because of the accident. However, this eting made her realized that Lucinia was only showing her fangs because of Mo Li! Without Mo Li, Lucinia had been respectful, soft, and kind! This was the previous Lucinia!
"Please your highness... you are speaking as if you have experienced a broken heart before." Lucinia sighed. "Having a broken heart is not easy. For so reason, the feeling is different and suffocating. I must say, this is sothing worse than all the pain that I felt before."
The Queen’s eyes widened. Did Lucinia just say that she still had a broken heart? Does this an that... she actually liked Zach? The Queen turned excited. "Well... let be honest with you. Before His Highness, The King ca into my life... I have broken my heart once."
"Really?" Lucinia lifted an eyebrow. "But her majesty is really beautiful and kind. Who would dare broke the majesty heart?"
"Stop saying stuff like that..." The Queen faked a burst of soft laughter, her eyes sparkled. Since she was really happy, she started to share a little bit of her past with the naive Princess. "Back then... I was just like you. I love to throw tantrums and don’t really follow the rules. I also liked to rebel a lot! I hated banquets and dances and eting other nobles. I believe they were too...." She pursed her lips, trying to find the right words to say.
"Pretentious?"
"Yes! That is the right word." The Queen nodded and sent a gaze full of sympathy towards Lucinia. "Pretentious. I always think that most vampires were hypocrites back then. Then... I t a man."
"A man... like a human?" Lucinia uttered, interest shining in her eyes. She knew that the Queen won’t easily tell her about her secret, but she was hoping for a little slip up from the woman. Maybe sothing that would give her so clue about this secret that the system wanted.
"Yes, a human, and he was the most handso man that I saw... or at least before I t the King."
"And? Did he liked you too?"
"Of course! I was really beautiful back then and...." Slowly, the Queen started talking about stuff that happened in the past. In the end, Lucinia realized that all these stories were either too exaggerated or were all lies. Seeing that the conversation was getting nowhere, Lucinia bid the Queen her goodbye and told her that she would co back the next day to talk. Then she imdiately went to her quarters and made sure that everything was locked before she called out.
"You can show yourself now..." she said softly as she stood in front of the bed. This quarter was actually really huge. It was even bigger than the room that they had on the mansion in Mo Li’s place. However, Lucinia doesn’t seem to like the extravagant decoration inside these quarters.
"How was your conversation with the Queen?"
Lucinia flinched when he felt Mo Li hugged her. The fact that she still couldn’t see him made her a little scared. "Show yourself!" She couldn’t stop the goosebumps in her body. She knew the man hugging her was Mo Li but the fact that he was still invisible was really disturbing her.
"Oh? Is my wife scared of ?"
"Stop teasing !" she hissed. "I am not scared I just... I want to kiss you."
Of course, Mo Li imdiately showed himself and turned her around so he could kiss her. He pressed his lips into hers as she rolled her eyes inwardly. She had discovered that the only way to make this man stop is to either talk about doing sothing naughty or... making him jealous. Of course, Lucinia decided to use this against the Duke.
When the Duke lifted her up and threw her small fra towards the bed, Lucinia didn’t complain. After all, she really nodded so mind boggling orgasm after pretending to be sad in front of the Queen. She gave a soft squeal. She laughed when he covered her body with his and started kissing her neck. A moan instantly escaped Lucinia’s lips, her hand lifted and touched his white hair.
"I am not going to take off your clothes, right?" he asked. The deal was simple, he would disappear during the day and would only get his paynt at night. Since it was still dayti, Mo Li was wondering if she would let him.
"Yes... we are just kissing." But she wanted more. However, she chose not to show it and honor the deal instead.
He bead. "Alright... I am not going to remove your clothes this ti." His words sohow made her laugh. But the undeniable knot on her core made her anticipate the things that were about to happen.
Of course, not all good things last.
This blissful atmosphere was interrupted when a servant knocked on her door and announced Zacharia’s arrival.
