Two guards followed behind the fuming Queen as she walked down the long corridors leading to the chambers. Her eyes immediately caught sight of her son's best friend Lenal who left his friend's room and Bowed down to his knees at the sight of the Queen's steaming nature. He didn't even say anything as he kept his head down towards his torn leather shoe. She stood watching him for a few seconds until she brought her fingers down to motion him up.
He did so while squeezing his hat in his hands. "My Queen..." he licked his lips and let his eyes apologize for him. She often wondered how in the world Lenal turned into such a stand-up respectful man. She never had problems with him because her son was always leading him into trouble, Lenal was always bailing them out. She still could see the child in him, swimming in the powerful river by the waterfall to get her son who had jumped off of the cliff and was unable to swim against the currents.
"Have you anything to drink?"
He shook his head and she had no reason not to believe him. He stood still and his eyes were not that of a drunken fool.
"Leave us."
He bowed once more before hastily turning on his heels and running down the halls. The Queen took a few seconds to gather her thoughts before she looked at her guards. They already knew what was expected of them. She let her lingering eyes glance up at the candles before she opened her son's door and walked in to see him lying on his bed still dressed in his hunting attire. She bent down calmly to be level with his face and started waking him softly.
It was like he had forgotten the day he had, the day of killing, drinking, and fucking whores. "Hello, mother. Did I sleep past sunrise?"
She patted his face trying to hold all her emotions inside. "No, my son. I only awake you to show a surprise waiting down by the garden." She stood up watching him crawl off of the bed and stretch. Her eyes watching...wondering...waiting. The girl she had brought for him to marry was a natural princess, a girl worth going to war for and the perfect match to bear children with. Antonella looked more like pure blood than he did yet he spat on what his mother gifted him.
Disrespected not only his service to the kingdom but to the woman who left her family to change her whole identity for him. "Are you ready Nikolai?" She smiled not letting him see what was really swirling around in her head and connected her arms with his. This made the boy happy like he was proud of how well he was doing at his new responsibilities.
"Did you see what we caught from the mountains Mother? It was I who pulled back the bow and provided us with a full-grown boar."
"A natural." She held onto his arm tighter. "With little direction from Imil, I imagine?"
"Of course." His smirk went all over her but she stayed silent. "They have become pests in the countryside so my kill does nothing but provide better lands for grazing."
The cooler night sky caught them both off guard so she used her left hand to cover her hair with her silk scarf, it was dark and matched the starry night as they went to the ledge. Queen Alura looked straight down at what she was expecting but stayed quiet to let him see his present for himself. It took him a while, he examined the lights from carriages across the city and then the men walked down the roads. "What is you wanted to show-" his voice caught in his throat as his blonde curls swept back from another brisk wind.
Down by the courtyard he saw the famous red hair and stumbled back not believing his eyes. Collete, the brothel's best girl hung by her neck in her work attire. Her skin was almost blue from asphyxiation and the ropes tied around her were darker than her eyes. Nikolai couldn't even form words as a slap came from his mother pushing him to his knees. She was only a woman but her hits always hurt worse than any man he ever fought.
"You disobedient pissing hole!" She grabbed his color and pulled him up. "Look what you did to that whore."
His foggy eyes stared at the woman he was with only a few hours ago. There was no way he could even reason with his own brain as the sting on his cheek refused to subside and the sight of her dead body still stayed in view even as his eyelids blocked the scene.
"I give you royalty and you couldn't keep it put away long enough give her something worth her efforts!" The Queen let his collar go and grabbed his face inside. Her nails squeezed his cheeks as she forced him to look at her, "You didn't just let me down this time boy." Pushing him back as she let go she stood straight and put her hands together like the professional Queen she was. "You disgust me."
He wiped away his tears knowing there were probably guards watching them but stayed holding onto the rail as the woman walked away and out of sight leaving him alone. Her mind was at ease now and she greeted any workers who passed by her with a true smile. As sickened as she was by her son's behavior she decided it was no use to try and fix whatever was wrong inside his head she only wished to go apologize to the Marquees.
Apologize for bringing her so far to give her a life that would only be full of pain and obedience. Her hands reached for the door that led to Antonella's room, when she walked in she was greeted with steam and warmth. Nible poured another boiling bucket of water into the tub and the girl she thought about so frequently stood at the end looking down at the water. Her body was bare but the Queen didn't want to make her feel self-conscious so she stayed quiet for a moment longer, taking in the view of the young girl with perky breasts and a flat stomach. She didn't expect all women to look like her, she herself looked nothing like that but How could Nikolai take for granted something so...beautiful?
"My lady, would you like someone to fill your bath as well?" Nible had caught her staring so she only shook her head. "May I-"
"Leave us."
The handmaiden put down the empty bucket and looked over at Antonella's worried eyes before bowing and leaving the room.
Queen Alura used the quietness of the room to speak for her as she walked closer to the girl still naked and shocked. She went behind her and let her aquamarine eyes search the back of her body, She realized the girl shook but she couldn't tell if it was from nervousness or from being chilled. In the Queen's mind, she felt herself talking but her mouth wouldn't let her do so, she only let her smooth hands rest on the girl's shoulders before running down her curves and resting at her hips.
"Your Majesty," Elysia whispered, her face finally moving to look down at the hands on her body.
Queen Alura closed her eyes and leaned her body on the girl's back, her soft black hair pushing into her chest as her left hand rose slowly and rested on the girl's neck, She didn't squeeze or try to make her uncomfortable she only left it there to feel how nervous Antonella was. Her throat was caught and she shook at not knowing what to expect. She couldn't blame the girl, she didn't know what to expect either. "Is the water too hot little bird?"
She shook her head quickly and lifted her leg as the Queen helped her over the side. Her waist and everything down below now submerged in the water. Elysia sat down in the middle of the tub and gulped at the sight of the Queen circling the water like a lion awaiting a gazelle to become distracted. The girl felt it was only right to give the lion what it wanted by looking down at her hands beneath the water and becoming absorbed in the way her body distorted from the surface.
It was enough time to hear fabric crinkle and a thud as the Queen's dress fell to the ground. Elysia's eyes widened but stayed put as ripples at the other end of the tub reached her. A warm body met her back once again but this time it was bare and wet. The Queen pulled Alura to her and rested her lips by her ear. "Do I make you afraid little bird?"
It was probably best to lie but she nodded instead listening to droplets run off the Queen's hand and onto her hair. She felt the smile that was so calming and used it to her advantage as the Queen turned her to face her. Elysia tried breathing normally and not looking down but it was almost impossible as she let her dark brown eyes see the bareness of a Queen. "I am to be married to your son."
"Then the only person you have to fear is that who is above a Prince." Alura pulled the girl towards her so that her legs wrapped around her waist and their breasts were rubbing together. "That person happens to be me, little bird." She pushed her lips into the girl's soft pink ones, The girl was fumbly and still clearly nervous but the Queen held her in place like a pro to get what she wanted.
"Two women can not lay together for the gods write that-"
"I am a god Antonella."
Elysia couldn't think of anything else to say so she closed her mouth and let her body speak for her, Her middle ached like it never did before but she didn't blame herself. The Queen was astounding and she had chosen her to lay with for a night. She served the Queen, no matter her title or her job she was a resident in the kingdom of Pentad and Pentad was run by the woman who held her like she was precious riches.
"I read often of fairytales little bird." Queen Alura whispered holding the back of the girl's neck and pulling her down to the water, her face was the only thing that was left out as her nails cleaned the girl's hair. "The girls depicted in the make-believe stories look just like you or you look like them rather. You sound like a song from the best musicians and you behave like a true princess." Her other hand sneaked to the front of the girl where she felt around her body before finding her private area and rubbing softly.
Elysia gasped feeling a finger go inside of her, water fell into her mouth and she coughed roughly feeling her body being lifted back into a sitting position on the woman's lap. As she laid her forehead on the woman's shoulders to catch her breath Queen Alura let another finger slip into her and penetrate the tightness that she had worked so hard to keep when she was a child among rapists and thieves. She never let any of them touch her like she let The blonde older woman.
The Queen watched a red color surround them and she smiled holding onto her tighter and pleasing her faster. "An innocent virgin angel you were." She petted her hair as the girl moaned into her neck. Her body stiffing and holding onto the Queen for dear life as a pleasure like nothing else in the world took over her body. "Be my princess Antonella." She said through the girl's shakes and squeezes. Her fingers finally relaxed inside of her as she gasped for air like she was under the water. "Be mine." Queen Alura whispered in her ear.
A simple nod came from the girl so she kissed her forehead before standing and leaving her alone in the tub. Elysia didn't know how long she stayed in the middle, trying to catch her breath as the Queen dressed herself and left the room but she heard Nible clicking her tongue and starting the fire once again as she entered to see the scene. "I'll get you another bath ran to get the blood off my lady."
