Prince Seamus IV (1)

The three figures walked for some minutes before they reached the Spring Pavilion. The pots and plots were flowers should be present are empty. As Deni looked around, the surroundings showed desolation where traces of vines on the walls are beginning to disappear.

"Her Highness has arrived!" One of the servants waiting outside declared.

Deni Righs walked inside and what met her eyes is certainly a handsome man with broad shoulders. In his arms is a seductive lady dressed as a maidservant. They are kissing hungrily while the hands of the man was groping inside the maidservant's clothes.

The servants inside the pavilion are looking anywhere but the happening inside, like what's occurring is nothing but normal. The only evidence that they are aware of it is the blush on their necks, cheeks, and tips of their ears.

Prince Seamus IV doesn't have any wife nor concubines but he has many maids who serve him in the bed. The maid in his arms is just one of them.

Deni continued walking inside like there is nothing wrong, with her head bowed.

She sat at the table two steps away from the pair. Her sight did not even stray from the table. All she could hear are the noises from kissing as well as the seductive moans of the maid. Her face and neck was pale-white, with no hint of bashfulness.

Deni Righs thoughts wandered from the noises to the memory she once had in the lab. The noises were vague but familiar. Every Sunday afternoon, Mother would bring a guy younger than her. Inside the separate room, Deni would always hear the same noise. Once, she asked Mother what they are doing inside, and Mother answered dismissively that they are having a sexual intercourse.

Due to curiosity, Deni checked it through the internet. It said that  sexual intercourse gives sensual pleasure to both partners but eventhough how hard she looked through the available articles and videos present in the internet, she will never understand. Deni lacked human contact and all her knowledge came from the internet. When Mother found out what she has been doing, she did not get angry and she even explained it. Mother said that Deni should only asked her. It's not appropriate if she asked other people.

As her thoughts wandered, someone pinched her chin upwards. Her eyes met with eyes that was looking at her with curiosity. The eyes that he thought would be dull were looking back at him with serenity.

"Rumors said that you're a fool." He glides the back of his palm on her left cheek down to her soft neck. She shivered at the touch.

"You are not." Her doe eyes blinked at him.

Prince Seamus IV looked at her eyes intently before going back to his place and ordered the servants to bring the dishes. When the servants finished serving, he dismissed them. He looked at his silent princess. "You, come here."

Deni looked at him and do as he says.

"Closer."

She neared at him one step away. As much as possible, she did not want to be near him, she always felt that he is dangerous. The farther she is from him, the better.

He looked at her darkly. Impatience was written all over his face. "Closer."

Deni moved again, closer.

Pursing his lips as he looked at her figure half a step away from him, his patience finally broke its limit. He angrily shouted: "Servants!"

Deni flinched in fear.

The two maidservants who helped her dressed awhile ago walked inside.

"Bring her back to her courtyard. She is not allowed to go outside for one week." He spoke with anger burning in his eyes.

"Yes, your Highness." They spoke respectfully and brought the silent Deni Righs outside the pavilion.

Prince Seamus IV looked at the slender back of Deni with dark eyes. With a huffed, he looked at the dishes on the table and slowly, he ate.

...

Deni was locked inside her couryard with an empty stomach. She doesn't know the reason why he got angry all of a sudden. Maybe he wanted her to be so close to him so that she could serve him with dishes or... Maybe he wanted her to sit on his lap like what the maid had done. She didn't know. She doesn't want to.

Deep inside, she was afraid of him.
