The Sea Eagle King

The Sea Eagle Prince descended into the Throne Room and dropped Sienna from his talons on the hard marble floor, "Where is my father?" he demanded. He took his human form, lifted Sienna up and he held her by her waist.

Sienna's hands were aching behind her back..she was so pale. The Sea Eagle King came inside the Throne Room because he noticed the commotion. Sienna stared at him worriedly. He was bigger built than the prince, a muscular, slightly older man around sixty with grey hair, a short beard and a cold expression. He glanced at his son and went to sit on his throne. He watched Damien for a moment, he noticed he was pushing Sienna hard. She was gasping in pain and her expensive dress was stained with blood.

"Speak my son, "he said in a hard booming voice. It made Sienna shiver.

"Greetings father!"Damien bowed lightly. "I wish to take the Snake, Tiger and Scorpion Queen as my mate," he said to the king.

"Then why did you tie her up so tight my son?" the king wondered.

"Because she punched my face." said the prince and touched his nose."I bled."

"Did it hurt a lot?" the king asked and Sienna could not believe her ears. "How can he ask that a grown man? He must be satiric." she thought.

The prince nodded. "Yes, she attacked me, and that is why I claim her as my prisoner. She is mine. I will teach her how to treat me nice!"He held Sienna tight and push her a bit forward smiling victoriously.

"Are you fighting the females now, son?" asked the king with a crazy look in his eyes.

"She refused to be my mate!"The prince shrugged his shoulder.

"She had to. Only a king can mate a queen and you are still a prince...or do you want to challenge me for the throne?" the king said coldly.

"No, father, I respect you, I will never challenge you...I just want to keep this female," he said.

"Aaa, what a fool!"Sienna sighted in her mind, "He just admitted he is not worthy to be the king ever!" she thought. "This will end up bad for both of us! Where is the bloody Voltoire!"

King looked at Sienna, she stood there watching quietly. Her face was pale and she looked like a frightened deer. Her golden hair were falling down her waist and her golden dress was stained by red droplets of blood. Still, she was very beautiful.

"You are my son? You are a coward! Are you afraid to challenge me? Do you think you can take my crown? I'm ashamed of you!" the king said coldly."Take him to the prison and execute him tomorrow."He said coldly to his guards.

Sienna looked in horror when the guard took the prince.

The prince just bow down his head and did not say anything, the guard made him release Sienna's waist and they took him out of the room. Sienna stood there in shock."Was he really his father? Why the prince did not fight, was he really a coward?"

Sienna looked at the king and his throne. The throne was made from carved wood and it depicted a huge silver eagle with spread wings for armrests. The king sat nonchalantly at it holding his beard lightly. Next to him stood his generals, one of them stared at Sienna coldly. She felt his eyes pierce into her being. She looked into his deep blue cold eyes and felt her heart move from the intensity of his stare. He was wearing armour with a dragon fighting an eagle.

The king came down to Sienna. He lifted her chin and looked into her eyes."Pretty face, tiger eyes..hahaha" he laughed, then he touched her arm." Snake, tiger, "he walked to her back and took out a small dagger. He freed Sienna's hands.

Sienna rubbed her aching wrist. The king ripped her dress at the back and stared at the Sarcos's mark. He touched it gently." Scorpion....3 formidable kings...What are you even doing here?" he shook his head. Sienna felt like some kind of a new toy he is inspecting. Then he came in front of her and looked into her blue eyes. She was puzzled and did not know what to think.

"What would one king do with one queen?" he asked.

Sienna opened her mouth to reply but she noticed the cold general who still stared at her put his index finger in front of his mouth and shook his head, signing her not to talk.

"Maybe the king is crazy, better stay quiet and not anger him," she thought and took the hint.

"What does one want from a queen," the king repeated and hold Sienna's hips with his big palms.

" I think, I need a new heir, "said the king with a tilted head.

Sienna froze, but said nothing..."You will give me a strong heir, Snake Queen, better than the one before. After the boy is born, I have no need of you, so you be thrown down from the rocks."

Sienna stared in shock at his words.But he continued."As my mating gift to you, you can choose your own executioner," he said. He will watch you from now on. Choose wisely because he will also have the right to mate with you once, a day before your execution as his reward." he said coldly.

"He is sick, he is sick!"Sienna's alarm bell rang in her head. The king came to her and took her hand...his hand was hot and hard. It felt like a stone in a sun. Sienna just followed him like a lifeless doll.

The generals stood before the king and Sienna..."Choose!" the king said coldly. Sienna look at them with panic in her eyes. They were all tall, lightly tanned, muscular, blond, cold and motionless. Their blue eyes stared at her with no emotion at all. She tried to look like she is choosing and then she pointed at the one who show her to be quiet.

"General Marco, you will be the queen's guard from now on."Said the king." Take her to the guest room." he said.

Marco bow to a king lightly and led Sienna away. She followed him with tears in her eyes.

Marco took Sienna to a big room, and he pointed at the bath with water."Get ready." he said, "King will come before dawn."

Sienna looked at him pleadingly, "Please, help me, Marco, if you can."

Marco was quiet, he sat in the chair and watched Sienna. She had to take off her dress in front of him and get into a bath with cold water. She took a deep breath and jumped right in, her body started to shiver. She held her nose and dived under the water. Marco stood up and checked on her. He started to think she want to drown, so he pick her up from the water. Sienna was shaking, she felt a hot sensation as the air was warmer, and the icy water made her feel more alive.

Marco wrapped her in a big cotton towel. Sienna looked at him and pressed his strong hands on her belly. She glanced into his cold blue eyes..."Marco, help me if you can, please."

He squeezed her hands and let go of her. He took a hairbrush, then led Sienna to a big mirror and start brushing her wet long hair. Sienna studied his reflection in the mirror. He was stern and cold, but he brushed her hair gently with precise movements, she shivered at his touch, but he felt kind of nice. He brushed her hair and touched her back accidentally, Sienna felt a slight tingle. He felt it too because he retracted his hand as it got burned. Sienna gazed at his reflection in the mirror.

His face come close to her ears as he brushed her hair carefully, he looked at her thru the mirror and she heard him say..."I'm with you always." His face was cold, with no emotion. Sienna blinked, "Was it for real? Did he really say it?"

Marco pressed her shoulder lightly, her hair were almost dry. He pick up a black chiffon dress and started to put it on her. Sienna let the towel fall down at his touch, she felt half dead already. Marco helped her into a dress. She felt his warmth near his body and was drawn to it, so she did not resist him at all and let him get her ready.

Marco picked up the necklace she got from Scorpion King carefully and help her to fasten it on her neck. It matched the black dress perfectly. She looked like a beautiful black sad statute with her pale skin and golden hair. The black dress was showing her paleness even more.

Marco looked into the mirror and nodded. He gave her a few pieces of apple for quick energy and a few grapes. Sienna eat them as she was starving from the morning. Then she went to look out from the window, Marco stand next to her and held her arm. She will be not even able to jump even if she wanted, but she has to keep alive to wait for her mates. She glanced at Marco...she somehow felt safer with him holding her.
