Chapter 18

Chapter 18 Imperial Consort Ling, the dear king is already at the gate of the green hill palace, you need to hurry and let me fix you for a while." Pim's promise made me confused. I think it's all of a sudden. If so, rest that first. You will stay here in my palace until you recover before you continue for whatever reason you have to come here. " I just turned to Lady Lawana and stood up. Thank you very much Imperial Consort Ling." He just smiled promise. I also smiled at him and left. I immediately went to my room to change my clothes because it was dirty and there was blood from Lady Lawana's face when she hugged me earlier. I also had to fix my hair because that wasn't very neat due to circumstances. As an Imperial Consort, I shouldn't show up to the King messy because that would be considered blasphemy. Even before I finished the repairs a palace guard arrived to deliver a message from the king. It is said that the dear king will not continue because they still have to meet the vice premier and the imperial general Ri at his palace. Instead he summoned me to go to his palace. "Then I will follow." I just told the palace guard and when he left, Pim suddenly screamed so I looked at him. "Oh no! Oops! This is it! The king has just returned and you are the one summoned to his palace not the queen! You are the winner, good for him! " He exclaimed before laughing. "You really are Pim, what should I call the queen now? That's fine with me. " I spoke but he just shook his head. "Oh, that's not good, the attention of the dear king must not go to others for this empire. You are always the winner." She protested so I laughed a little but I was also serious about telling her something. "He's Pim, first of all, is the thing I asked physician Chakru for in the palace?" "Ah yes ma'am, but s-are you sure you're really going to do this?" There was concern in the voice he promised."Pim, I have your loyalty, don't I?" "Of course, dear consort." "Then just trust me and don't ask too many questions." I promised. "You're the ones to follow my dear consort, just a moment and I'll get you that thing." He sighed before smiling.Just hurry and we will go to the king's palace." I promise. "I'm not sure yet my true condition here in the palace so I have to do it." I whispered to myself. When we arrived at the king's palace, the king still had a meeting so I would have waited but I was allowed to enter the hall where Argus and his brother were meeting who both turned to me while walking so I was a little stunned. My Imperial Noble Consort, there it is. Come to me. " Argus called me happily so I automatically looked at Marro. He's just staring at me so I swallowed and walked closer to Argus. Marro still doesn't look away so I don't look at him anymore. Uhmm, m-dear king, are you calling me to join you tonight?" A few but elegant and smiling I promised Argus. "She is the real Imperial Consort Ling because I miss my beautiful wife." He happily promised and even held my waist tightly. "But you still have a meeting, dear king." I promised before I glanced quickly at Marro that he could no longer paint his face while his brother was looking at us.Attendant Pim, first accompany your boss to my room and I will just end my conversation with my dear brother." He smiled at Pim before he let go of me and turned back to Marro. I was about to leave when Marro suddenly grabbed my arm. He said- "He couldn't continue what he wanted to say when he seemed conscious because Argus was just looking at us and his eyes were fixed on my arm that Marro was holding. He slowly let go of it before smiling hard. Ah a-I mean, my sister said you're beautiful and it's really true." He nodded before laughing a little. I know that something's going on on Argus mind about what he witnessed but he also smiled hard. "Thank you so much for the compliment Prince Ri. My dear king, I will continue. " I just promised before turning to Argus. I no longer looked at Marro who I knew was still looking at me and I hurriedly walked towards the huge king's room where there was food prepared on a large round table. I sat there first and immediately sipped the wine that was on the table. A few more minutes passed and I also ran out of a bottle of wine that was there but Argus was still gone and I still had in my mind what happened earlier. Marro what do you think you are doing? Sorry but we can't get everything back to normal. This is our life now Marro- " "M-Marro?" It was Argus' voice that woke me up so my eyes widened and I immediately turned to where he was. He closed the gigantic door before turning to me again. "Hmm? Did you say something? " I promise I might get through. Ah, w-nothing, forget it. By the way, you seem tipsy, did you drink the wine I prepared? " he asked lightly. "Ah y-is that so, I'm sorry you've been so long ah … I'm sorry dear king, I shouldn't have said that." I said in a tipsy voice. He just smiled before approaching me. "Hey, you're already an Imperial Consort, you shouldn't drink like that. When the people in the palace find out this it will no longer be respectable they will think of you. T-you're right, I'm sorry, I won't do it again, Your Majesty."it's another form of informality when you speak and move, you should also practice speaking correctly and in order even if you're still talking to me. Maybe later someone will hear you talk informally to the king and call you blasphemous. " He calmly promised before he led me to sit on the side of the bed. I was just silent as I leaned over him because I didn't know how to talk to him. He might ask me or admit to something, I don't know yet what to do. One more thing, Emperial Consort income, your life will be affiliated with mine, if you want or need to let me know, it's better to just tell than to keep it a secret from me. Most of all you know me and hate what makes me stupid. I hate the deceiver. " This is his firm promise. "I-I'll remember that, dear king." My only answer to what he said. I want to confess but I don't know how. Maybe I'll just tell him everything when I'm ready. "You should be okay. I've heard a lot of negatives about your words and actions. You need to fix those." He promised so I frowned a little. "Fine, fine … But why are you suddenly scolding me right now … eh I'm trying. But of course, my usual speech and movements are still different. Yes, we have Maria Clara in the Philippines but it's the 80's, eh, I don't think that will be my future. Another reason is that even when you are in front of me, you prevent me from acting this way, eh, every time you talk to me, I am comfortable and free because of the whole empire, only in front of you can I prove myself. who I really am. " I was acting so he smiled before he put his arm around me and gave me a kiss on the head because I was still leaning on him But wait, aren't we going to eat first? The food is ready …" I said after I pulled my lips back a little. "I think I like you more-- you know …" He mischievously promised before he pulled me to his waist again causing our bodies to stick together. "What do you think hmm?" He stubbornly promised before kissing me on the cheek again as he caressed them with the back of his palm and looked straight into my eyes. I just catched those stares before I raised my hand to caress him on his shoulder gently down to his chest. He just watched my hands as I just stared at what I was doing. I started to unbutton his royal suit and stripped it from his body. I still haven't taken my attention away from her now and bare chest. My hands caressed his chest as if I was inspecting it before I lifted my face to him. He also caressed my face and touched my chin. "You're such a beauty …" Her tongues were sticky at the suggestion and she slowly bent down to kiss me. I reciprocated with a kiss after I hugged him before I left his lips and dropped a kiss on his neck. I kissed him as gentle as I could but as intimate as it could be. I even lowered a kiss to his chest and touched that with a small kiss before I returned to his lips while still caressing his shoulder. We once again shared a long and sticky kiss that even created a strange sound that filled the entire room. He then started to remove my emperial robe revealing me on my tube emperial emerald dress. "Turn around …" After a while he whispered stickily to me before he turned me back to him. He removed my head-dress and hair accessories letting my long black hair down before he pulled it in front of me. After he pulled my hair down to my chest I felt the touch of his wet lips on my nape as his hand was busy untying the strap of my dress from the back until it gradually fell to the floor. revealing my br*asts since I am not using b*a. Actually, women here in the palace doesn't wear b*a, our clothes or dresses have foams already. After he undressed me, he hugged me from behind and started caressing my shoulders, my nape, and my back with his t*ngue. After a few moments, I disclosed his arms around my waist before I faced him and then put my arms around him before I kissed him. We kissed intensely that we push our lips against each other as our t*ngues making twist and turns. After that he came down with a kiss to cover my whole body. "Uhmmm …" I muttered in response to what he's doing before he lifted me up. My back felt the soft mattress as he laid me down. My bed is soft but his is softer. He undressed himself before he climbed to the surface slowly while kissing my feet up to my pitying lips steady inhaling the air because of the tickle I feel. After a while, I was able to jump again and open my mouth while twisting my own body and neck when we were completely alone.I moaned again as he moved his hips in a pressful and forceful way to fully get inside me.I moaned again in a stronger way the moment I felt him reached my core. "D*mn! T !!!" I uttered when he moved faster. This is it. This is my weakness part of every intercourse we have, when he goes wild and faster, I am losing my mind because of the painful yet intoxicating sensation he's giving me. "U*h …" I heard him groan before he grabbed me on my hips and lifted me up so that I could sit on him so I pushed him so that he could lie down. My turn …" I uttered flirtily* before I went hard on him. Well I just copied everything he does to me. Guessed, I'm a fast learner on that part. That's right Sab, that's right …" He muttered before he let out a smirk and held me by the waist to help me do what I'm doing. A few minutes passed, he got up before he hugged me while kissing me hard. He bent down to kiss my chest even more as I just looked up with my eyes closed but with my mouth wide open letting out the unbearable sensation circulating in me. Just like that, another tiring, painful, yet wonderfully intoxicating moment happened again. Covered with blanket, I just hugged him with my head resting on his chest. He leaned slightly on the headboard of the bed while one of his hands wrapped around me and gently caressed my arm. Emperial Noble Consort Ling …" He didn't say anything so I opened my eyes but I didn't look up to look at him.Hmmm?" my weak response. There is a tendency that I will make Lady Xiao as my Consort, she will be third in rank if that happens. But I'm still thinking about it. " ummm, well … What else I could possibly say on that matter?" I just answered calmly because I didn't really know what to say. I'm obviously breaking my promise to you …" He slowly said still touching my arms. well … I personally don't like the idea of you having another wife but I can't say no either. First of all, this is just one of the consequences of choosing you and coming to the palace as your bed chamber. I have to deal with it. Second, you are not asking for my permission, you're just deciding with me but either way, it is you who will make the decision not just for yourself but for the entire empire that you are responsible for. Just like the queen, I'm not opposing you to have that woman be your consort if that means safety for the entire empire. " I slowly promised before I lifted my face to look at him. Well, what's making me hesitant of making her my consort is not really what you've said." I was a little taken aback by what he said. and what is it?" I asked confusedly before resting my head on his chest again. He himself."Hmm?" I was confused by the response. "Lady Xiao is not like you or the queen who is just quiet and just waiting for what I will reveal or bestow. Lady Xiao is a different breed. She is a strong willed woman with stern personality, bold attitude, and high level of arrogance being the daughter of the head of war ministry of the Grand Empire. Although she's also such a beauty, smart, sweet and delicate at some degree enough for every man to fancy her but … she'll be hard to handle. " I was stunned for a long time by what he said. I'm getting his point.That's why I'm still thinking about it although his father is bombarding me with so much offerings for me to make his daughter one of my consorts." one of your consorts?" I'm confused to promise again because I'm his consort. Yes, one of my consorts. I'm afraid, you and the queen have to bare more. " He sighed so I frowned.What do you mean? Are you trying to say that you'll have more consorts aside from me and that woman if ever? "I raised my eyebrows. "Well kinda …"Kinda ? Imperial Consort Ling, you know that aside from the queen, I can have four more concubines right?" He said. yeah I know that. But are you planning to complete all five wives? "I sarcastically promised. No, of course I don't, but my father and my officials do."What do you mean?" "The king's marriage is not only based on his choices, it can be based on the opinion of the people who are with him governing the entire empire." He sighed.So what are you trying to say?" I didn't know that my father is planning to send me a gift today. Actually, she should be here right today for me to meet her but- " Wait? A gift but a woman? " Yes. A woman can be a gift in a world like this. My father said that he wanted to help the family of his former ministry of war head who served him and the empire selflessly for how many decades and during his retirement, my father made a promise that on the 21st birthday of her daughter, he would enter here in the palace to be the wife of his son who would later become king. Obviously, I'm his son who becomes the King so it's me who will take responsibility. " I was stunned by what he said. Not because he was going to have a fourth wife but because of the girl he mentioned who was the daughter of the former head of the war ministry. Is he talking about Lady Lawana? Eyy are you okay?" he commented to me when he noticed my anxiety and shock. the woman you're saying you know the name?" I stuttered the question."Yes, if I remembered it right I think she's Lady Lawana." Oh my g !!!" I suddenly ejaculated causing him to be surprised and look at me. Why? N-did you see him here in the palace or something? Because she should be here today but she didn't show up so my father thought something might have happened to her so she couldn't go. He also sent a message to the seams of the empire but Lady Lawana allegedly left there this morning. My father is still looking for him to this day. " He had a long promise but I didn't know what to say. When I say Lady Lawana is in the green hill and recovering, she will know the real cruelty of Lady Xiao here. I know that I'm not in good terms with Lady Xiao and have somehow gotten close to Lady Lawana but I don't want to be an attribute and be a villain. I just let go of her hug and lay on my back with her. I felt him adjust to lie down from leaning on the headboard and lie down in front of me. Imperial Consort Ling …" He called me with a weak sigh but I didn't say a word. After a while I felt him come closer to me before he hugged me from behind and buried his face in my neck because I could feel his hot and heavy breathing. TO BE CONTINUED…
