Burning desire

Chapter 15

Rhydian

I had drank a lot, I was already feeling slightly tipsy. I rarely drank, but Kael insisted I drank a little, being that it was a rare and special occasion. I was already feeling dizzy at this point.

I headed to my chambers, wanting to take a bath to calm my nerves. The male servants were already waiting when I entered. They washed and bathed me, did a thorough clean up that left me spotless .

I would have told them not to bother because I didn't plan on doing anything tonight anyway, but at the same time, I didn't want rumors spreading that I wasn't interested in my wife, or that I refused to bed her for certain reasons.

After they were done with everything, I was dressed in a night robe, fully ready to take my bride. I wasn't really pleased with this union, I didn't like the idea of being bound by marriage to anyone, especially not someone who might decide to kill me at anytime.

I headed for the queens quarters, yes, she was now my queen after all. Once I got there, I found that the maids lined up outside her door.

"Welcome your majesty," they chorused, than gave way for me to pass.

"You can all leave, I would like some privacy," I said firmly, I knew the elders would have placed some spies to eavesdrop just to comfirm if I bedded her tonight or not. They had even told me to make an heir as soon as possible, those old devils were as nosy as hell.

I opened the door quietly and walked inside before closing the door behind me. As soon as I entered, I could hear her nervous heartbeat from where I stood, a smirk curled on my lips, maybe i could tease her a little.

The room was dimly lit, She sat on the bed, but I couldn't see her clearly because of the net over the bed. I slowly approached her, and when I finally got to where she sat, my eyes widened from the sight before me.

Her skin shone brightly, her silver hair Cascaded down her slender shoulder, her neckline, collar bone, everything was so breathtaking. The white gown she wore had a slit on the side, exposing her slender silky legs.

I could clearly see her curves, her nipples poking through, the dress was very transparent, I could see everything without even trying. Blood rushed straight to my length, I was already hard, just by laying eyes on her. This was bad, I said I wouldn't touch her, if I didn't control myself tonight, I couldn't accidentally awaken my inner beast.

My jaw clenched, her eyes met mine, they were full of defiance, she wasn't ready, she wasn't willing. I walked even closer, then leaned forward till my face was only inches away from her's, my hands rested on the bed on both sides beside her.

"Are you scared?" I asked with a teasing grin. I just wanted her to back out herself, I needed her to show more defiance, that would help in quenching my hunger right now.

But instead, her hand reached for my cheeks, and her warm palm held my face, her purple eyes glowed faintly. And then, she smiled, "I'm more than happy to serve you your majesty," she said softly, my brows furrowed, she was putting on an act, trying to act delicate and seductive, I needed to show her, what she gets for adding salt to my wound.

I gripped her waist and lay her on the bed abruptly, she gulped, her nerves tensing. I leaned lower, inhaling her scent, my body pressed firmly against her's, and my hardened length pressed hard against her thigh.

"Do you know what you're asking for, purple?" I growled softly, my hand tracing her waist upward, I was slowly loosing it, I wanted her so badly, what was this, I was never someone to get so lost in lust.

"You want my body don't you? You can have it," she replied firmly, taunting me. I couldn't help but wonder what she was planning, I knew for a fact that she despised me, so why wasn't she resisting. Was she willing to sacrifice anything just to kill me? Even her body?

I hissed, my fangs growing out, I was angry and craving her at the same time. Why did she have so much effect on my emotions, it was just impossible to understand.

"Do you hate me so much?" I asked quietly, my hand around her waist becoming firmer. She placed her hands over my chest, then smirked, "why would I hate you? You haven't harmed me in anyway," her words made me even more angry, she was lying to my face with a smile, that look in her eyes was all i needed to know that everything she just said were lies, and yet, my hunger for her didn't waver one bit.

These rosy lips of her's that were only inches away from mine, if I gave in and kissed her, it would be over, I wouldn't be able to hold back anymore. And the fact that she wasn't willing even made me more determined not to do anything to her.

I pulled away abruptly, leaving her panting softly as she lay on the bed.

"Change into something that'll cover you properly and go to sleep, I'll sleep on the floor tonight," i said quietly, and without waiting for her reply,i walked away from were she sat and headed to the bathroom. If I hadn't pulled away just now, I might have actually lost it.

I stood inside the bathroom, my back resting on the Polished cold walls, my chest heaving. I was achingly hard and needed some sort of relief, anything at all.

A cold bath might help, the bathing pool was already filled up with clean water, meaning the maids had prepared it for us to use after everything was over. I removed my clothes and entered the pool, I exhaled deeply as I relaxed my back and elbows on the edge.

Who would have thought it would ever come to this point, where I would crave something so badly, something served to me on a silver platter, but I can't lay my hands on it.
