“I shall take my leave, your Majesty,” I said with a slight bow and turned to leave, praying desperately that he would not suspect my intention for standing in front of the map.
However, as I turned, he grabbed my hand and pulled me into his embrace. He bent down to kiss my lips and his earthy musk scent filled my nose and intoxicated my senses. He began to plant kisses on my body all the way in between my legs.
I gasped embarrassingly loudly as his tongue kissed my folds rather passionately. He did not stop until my entire body quaked for a release.

Alpha Dagen had to be doing this deliberately. If it was not deliberate then there was no explanation for why my brain had turned to mush and I could not remember a single thing from the map I had studied last night.
“My lady, what are you trying to draw?” Diane asked bizarrely as I threw away the fifteenth paper I had attempted to recreate the map.
“This won't do, I need a more solid plan,” I said out loud and Diane's face brightened as though she had an idea.
“I have an idea for the meet,” she said in a cheerful tone.
“The Meet?” I quipped rather confused.
“It is next week, my lady and it will be the first time you will be meeting your people,” she said with a bright smile.
“My people?” I quipped. I was struggling to understand what she meant by any of this.
“Meet, my lady. A celebration was thrown in honor of the average omega to thank them for their contribution to the Kingdom. You will be introduced as Luna. What shall you give your people, my lady?” asked Diane and it came to my memory that the Elders had brought it up during dinner the other day.
“Oh, that! Well, how was it done in previous years?” I asked Diane, uninterested in the subject.
“Lady Nydia took care of things by providing rice and sometimes wine. When the Queen Dowager had been alive she used to give the women fabric too and the children quilts,” said Diane.
“We'll do everything then. Prepare rice and sesame oil. They should have some spices too. There should be wine as it is a celebration and then of course fabric for the women and quilts for the children,” I said rather lazily.
“That is a lot, my lady. We had better start preparing now if we are to have anything ready by next week,” returned Diane.
“Start preparing now? Why me? I've given the order...”
“It doesn't work that way, my lady. You must personally see to it that things are in order. Your first meeting is very important. It sets the tone for the people's reaction towards you,” she explained but in my mind, it did not matter. If Alpha Dagen kept on with his feverish lovemaking I would be pregnant soon and would have to run away to save my head and my baby.
Nevertheless, I started preparations at once and by the time I was done for the day I was exhausted. This was even more stressful than allowing Alpha Dagen to ravish me.
“Doesn't it turn you on? To think that your killer is a good lover?” Raven teased.
“Shut it.”
“But you are expecting him tonight, aren't you? To make wild passionate love to you again,” she taunted me and I hated that she was right. Even as I lay down exhausted in my bed, my mind conjured our last session together when he had taken my left breast whole in my mouth and sucked on it as though his life depended on it. I could understand Lady Nydia’s hatred for me now. Surely, if she were enjoying that much I did not blame her for not wanting to share.
“Won't you miss him when you run away?” Raven asked me.
“Missing him will not matter when I'm dead,” I said and she kept quiet.

In the middle of the night, I woke up and could not fall asleep. I felt rather restless and decided to take a walk outside. When I stepped outside I inhaled the fresh night breeze and decided that I pay a visit to the garden. I had never been there myself but I had passed by the garden several times in the past. It was a beautiful place even under the twinkling night. The flowers seemed to give the garden a natural light and the garden seemed to moan in….
Someone was here.
Was it Alpha Dagen? Perhaps he had brought a woman to spend the night and they had gotten bored of the bed? It did not take long for me to spot the lovers and I was sincerely shocked to see Lord Ervin and my very own maid, Diane, in a corner butt naked while their bodies were entwined.
They did not take any notice of me or of the world. Before they could come to their senses, I hid behind a shrub so they would not see me.
“I thought I heard someone just now,” I heard Diane's voice.
“You worry for nothing. No one is here, my love?” came Lord Edvin's noble voice.
“How can you be so sure? What if the Alpha…”
From the unintelligent noise Diane made afterwards I could only picture what Edvin was doing to her.
