Come To My Room
“Lord Alexander why don’t you come to my room after I get done working. Since you have been searching all over for me.” Smiling at Alexander she asked with her hands on her hips.
“Yes, I would like that, I have something to ask you also. See you later Greta. “bye” she said.
After work Greta went to her room, grabbed a clean outfit and went to take a shower. She borrowed some perfumed soap and shampoo from Minty. Minty always kept scented shampoos and soaps. Greta took the ones that smelled like Lilacs. Her favorite flower was the Lilac, the palace would have lilacs all over the front lawns.
“I need to step it up If I’m going to get Alexander to fall for me. I don’t have a nice dress but as least I can smell like a woman.” She was talking to herself as she hurriedly went into the shower room. There was at least an hour before Alexander should show up. “If I’m lucky he will stay the night in my bed or better he I will get invited to his room. His bed is larger, I don’t think both of us would fit in mine.”
After the shower she cleaned up her room, making her bed look a little more comfortable, she brought back some wine and two wine glasses from the storeroom just in case she decided to offer him some. “I think he’s accepting me, well, I know he is. I could tell from the other day the way he was looking at me.” She talked to herself as she was dusting her furniture and the floor.
Later that evening Alexander arrived at Greta’s room. She let him in, and they both sat down on her bed. She had no chairs in the room, just a small twin bed and a small dresser.
Leaning back on his hands Alexander asked her if her pale complexion was due to the previous night’s events when she was in his room. He reached up and brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear. Blushing slightly, she didn’t realize she looked pale, but it didn’t have anything to do with Simon and the other night.
Greta was surprised, When Simon kissed her hard and passionately, He had clearly stated that Alexander would not remember his actions. Simon wanted her to relax with him and he wanted so much to touch her everywhere, but he held back. He knew that Alexander would be extremely upset with him if he did more anyway, he didn’t have enough time and it took a lot of energy to block Simon from knowing what he was doing to Greta. She did enjoy it, and if the opportunity arose then Simon would take advantage of it and go further than just a kiss and she would like it. He would make sure of that.
If Alexander Knew Simon bent down to tie my shoes, what would he do? I hope Simon is right that he won’t remember. I kissed Alexander but he would never have bent to tie my shoes. Giving Alexander a fake smile she asked him if he wanted a glass of wine.
“No thank you, I had ale earlier and the wine wouldn’t mix well but thank you.” He said politely to her. “If you want to drink some then go right ahead and do so.”
Alexander seemed to be aware of Simon’s emergence, but whether he knew more of what they did, Greta was uncertain. “Simon tends to push his boundaries and keep me in the dark. So, I wanted to ask you if that was why you were avoiding me?”
She replied, “I’m fine, my lord. I’m sure you had your reasons for worrying and no, I wasn’t avoiding you. I just had stuff I needed to do, and it was just a coincidence that I wasn’t standing in the kitchen when you came. I did leave for a minute to get some ingredients. Maybe that was when you where there earlier.” She kept smiling at him while she talked. Sounding very sweet and twirling her hair in her fingers.
Alexander looked at Greta with trusting eyes and a restrained smile, which seemed to her to be a gesture of forgiveness out of respect and trust. Yes, he is starting to trust me, this is exactly what I wanted. She was thinking to herself while smiling at Alexander.
Alexander might be skilled in military matters, but when it came to manipulating hearts and strategies, he was no match for Greta. She had too much practice in her past life manipulating and strategizing how to get people hurt, especially the ones that hurt her. She became a pro at it. Even manipulating hearts, Ragner was the hardest one, but she was able to get him to care for her. He was still cruel and hurt her physically during sex, but she played the game. Did what she needed to do, and she will do it with Alexander. She would push anyone in her way to the side or overboard if she had to.
“I’m going to apologize anyway for Simon’s actions. If he was in any way out of line to you, then I want to say I’m sorry. Sometimes I can’t control him, and he is stronger than me so if he can push me to the back and take over he will. Especially when he see’s a beautiful woman like yourself.” He sat up with his elbows on his knees. Watching her to see if she will accept his apology.
When she didn’t say anything, he took it that maybe there was something Simon did do. So, he asked “how can I make amends for his wrongdoing?” Simon leaned closer to her, placing a hand on her knee.
Smiling, her cheeks turned red at him touching her knee. This is just too easy she thought to herself.
Shaking her head, “Tiana asked if she could touch his tail.”
