After Lucus went with one last growl directed to me, I thought about my situation.
I am trapped. I am in the worst situation now. If I want to escape from this hell hole I've got to act quickly because as far as I know my beast of a mate will do as he said.
So, I dressed quickly with a white maxi gown. Then I hurried down the hall. The soldier I met was doing his patrols with another soldier.
He saw me and I saw something flicker in his eyes like recognition. But he was confused.
"Hey, you two come here."
"Yes, your Grace. Do you need anything?"
“Yes. I want to send a message to your king. So, you can go and take another guard with you while I take this one to send the message."
“Very well My Queen. As you wish."
With that the other guard went away leaving me with my soldier.
"I know you your Grace. What should I do for my crime.? I was foolish and I was in heat. I didn't expect you to be the queen. There are no words for my actions. And I know the king will soon kill me!"
"Hmm...so you fucked me without knowing who I am? Interesting. I can imagine your situation when the king finds out. It will be bloody, and you will suffer a lot. Actually, he is looking for you now.
But...
There is one escape for you!"
“What is it my queen...Please tell me I will do anything.!”
"It's really simple. You see I am looking for someone to help me to escape from this hell. So, you can help me, and we can escape together. I was forced to come here. So, you can either die or live. The choice is yours.”
He was thinking and I knew he was debating it with his wolf. His wolf as expected should be against this because of the utter loyalty to his king wolf. But the human side was more rational and weighing the options. Finally, he decided.
“I will agree to her majesties plan with one condition. May I live with you until you tier of me?"
"Of course. You can. Do we have a deal?"
"Yes, Your Grace."
"Good. Now hurry up and mask your scent because the King is searching for my secret lover. Unless you wish to die you better hide your scent."
"I will your Grace. Thanks for your kindness."
And with that the stupid soldier went away. How stupid. He is helping me while I use him. But he has the potentiality to become a good lover. Who knows? Maybe I will consider him.
With that finished. I returned to my chambers and barricaded the doors informing that no one is to disturb me. Then I went into my walking closet and began to prepare a small package with some clothes and essentials.
After arranging everything I went for a relaxing bath. I adjusted the temperature and added some sea salt bathing bombs to the water. Then I removed my dress and submerged myself.
I was relaxing and didn't hear the loud bang on my bed chambers or the demands to open the door. Neither the breaking of the door or the breaking of the bathroom door.
I was reluctantly ripped away from my deep slumber when suddenly the bathroom mirror was smashed with a loud shattering sound.
I opened my eyes and saw Lucus in his bloodiest self. His knuckles and the whole front area were covered with blood. It was someone else because Lucus was fine and well. His face was contorted into a snarl, and he was breathing hard while growling.
He paid me no attention and went straight to the shower. Then he washed away all the blood and removed his clothes. I watched him closely when he passed me without any word and out of the bathroom.
I quickly finished my bath and dried myself with a towel. Then I wrapped another towel and entered the room. Lucus was relaxing on the bed reading a scroll without any clothe and I was glued to the spot with the glorious view.
His muscular body was on full display and the evening light was doing wonders to his body.
I dropped my towel and then only Lucus looked at me raising a perfectly arched dark eyebrow.
***
Lucus’ POV.
I was furious. Utterly furious with my whore of a mate. She should know better to betray me. I knew when I felt the pain that she is having sex with another male. How dare she?!?
She is my mate. How can she do this to me. I will kill the bastard who dared to touch her. Darios was equally furious. He wanted to kill every male who had the slightest scent of her. But Darios knows that will do no good for us.
I had to kill 20 rogues to calm both myself and Darios. Still, I can feel the bitter taste of betrayal on my tongue. Amelia is smarter than I thought. She used bleaching to cover the bastard’s smell.
After I finished with the rogues, I returned to my bed chambers only to find it barricaded by my mate. With the rage filled haze I broke the doors.
She was having a bath without a care in the world, and I was furious with her. I gave her no attention and finished my shower. She was looking at me like a hawk and I felt it.
Needless to say, I missed a whole lot of work with this sudden incident, and I thought to check out a scroll that needs my attention.
That's when my so-called mate strolled into the room and dropped her towel exposing her lovely body.
Although I was furious, I can't stop the rumble that escaped from me. We always lose every other sense when we see our mate on her full naked glory.
It is hard to ignore her. She let her towel to pool around her feet and came to me swaying her hips. Then she climbs on top of me and place gentle kisses along my jawline to the corner of my mouth. Her dangling breasts touches my own while rubbing her crotch with mine.
The seduction was too much for me and my wolf took the complete control of my body.
I dig my claws to her hips, and she hisses with pain.
She looks into my eyes and is terrified when she sees my golden orbs.
