I approached the long table where she was, but I still kept the distance we had. I can respect the space she needs so she should respect me the same way.
"You must forgive me for what I have said, Sultana". I said. I said it calmly.
"How dare you to tell me what I should do? Those words came from you Mr. Ferderico. Don't say that you are taking back what you said?". She said. Her voice is full of sarcasm. I want to approach her and make her feel all the annoyance I have but we are in reality.
I knew I would break her law.
"I have no intention of taking back what I have already said Sultana. All I want to say is that you must forgive me". I replied. I don’t know why the way we talked became chaotic. I knew she was mad at me because I raised my voice and that was my mistake.
"And why should I forgive you if what you did is unacceptable? If the officer only saw what you did Mr. Caio Ferderico I am sure you will receive a punishment.". She said.
She stood up and approached the counter on the right side of the library.
"You're lucky because I'm kind and I'm not the type of leader who will shoot you in the head right away. The word Respect came from you, I'll respect you. I won't hang you, I won't punish you either. But hopefully next time Mr. Ferderico, learn to place yourself and don't show me that kind of behavior ". She said. It was so nice to hear her voice even if she was scolding me.
I had nothing to say, all I could do was stare at her and watch her every move. She opened a cabinet and the cabinet was filled with a variety of wine, brandy, liquor and more.
"Would you like to sip some wine first before we start learning?". She asked me. The softness of her voice and the way she offered me wine seemed to attract me.
"I won't refuse your offer, but I'm telling you Sultana, we can't start if you're wearing such an elegant dress". I said.
She took out two wine glasses and she herself put the liquid in the two glasses. Only the sound of liquid could be heard and my breathing. She can take my breath away the way she deals with me.
"What do you want me to wear Mr. Ferderico?". She asked me, her voice had a hint of flirtation so I swallowed secretly.
If she continues to tease me like this I will not be able to move properly.
"Clothes that are appropriate for what we will do later, what you should wear is clothes that will not hinder the activity, Sultana.". I replied.
She handed me the wine glass and lifted it to share the glass with me.
“What are we going to do? why do I need to change clothes?”. She asked me.
I scratched my neck because of her questions that had obvious answers. Why did she have to ask what we were going to do? she already knew what to do in our art lesson and now she was going to ask what we were going to do?
"Art lesson. I don't want the paints to ruin your very elegant dress Sultana. Just wear something comfortable". I replied.
"It's okay. I can buy more elegant clothes. I can buy everything and I have no problem if my clothes get damaged". She said. She was conceited and stubborn.
"Sometimes we also need to be humble because people have different opinions". She looked at me, I can't even see her eyes but I can feel her stare at me.
"I don't care about other people's opinion especially your opinion Mr. Ferderico. I'll say what I want to say and you can't do anything". I just smiled at what she said and I crossed my arms.
"You don't care about my opinion?". I asked her, I was smiling but behind these smiles I was really annoyed with the behavior she was showing.
Everyone says she is a good and kind Sultana, but where did she become kind? To underestimate people?
"Yes. You know it's your fault why I'm like this to you, so just consider that this is your punishment for answering me earlier". She said. I raised both my hands to surrender.
"I don't deserve this kind of treatment Sultana.". I softly said.
She was still staring at me and I couldn't tell what kind of stare she was throwing at me.
"Believe me, you deserve your punishment Mr. Ferderico. I hope you don't talk to me like that again." She said to me.
"Don't tell me again what I should do and don't control my stay here in your kingdom Sultana. I am an independent man and I do not want to be dictated". I replied.
"It still depends on the situation Mr. Ferderico. You are in my territory for five days and I am responsible for your stay here. I need to make sure that you are in good condition and you should not waste the time I have given for yourself-
And what you did yesterday, you studied and spent your time looking at the art pad that I didn't order you to do. ". She stated. Her eyes are still fixed on me and I don't think she has any intention of taking her eyes off me.
I can't see her eyes directly because of the see-through with the hijab but I can still feel her intense stare.
"For me, I did well from yesterday and last night. What do you expect me to do inside your huge palace Sultana? It seems that five days is not enough for me to go around the palace. But I decided to just take a look at your art works rather than wandering around and wasting time. I didn't waste my day and time, but I'm sure I used that time for something important. ". My statement.
"Don't worry, Sultana. I did that to make our study easier. What I did was part of our study. I enjoyed looking at each of your artworks and I am happy because I learned things about you using just the art pad you lend ”. I approached her until she was only a meter away from me.
From here I can smell the fragrant scent of the Sultana, She is like a flower that spreads a fragrant scent around.
I noticed that she backed away a little so I smiled. I want to pin her to the wall and I really want to undress her right now. The sex appeal she has pulls me closer to her but my mind stops me.
"I learned a lot about you because of your art pad. Now, I know your problem. But there is still something left in your art works, and there I will prove if my theory about you is correct Sultana Aleziana". I said slowly. I took the bottle of wine and put a small amount of liquid in my glass.
"I know you don't want to waste time My dear Sultana. Go and change your clothes, wear something that fits what we're going to do. Wear something that will make you comfortable.". I said to her.
I turned my back on her and she turned her back on me. We were a meter away from each other and the smell she had gradually attracted me. So while I was still in control, I wanted her to come out of the library and disappear from my sight for a while.
"You're going to show me now how good you are at painting realistic". I told her.
She started to walk out, my eyes just followed her. I can't take my eyes off her. Her back details is so gorgeous, she's unique and I want to know more about that woman.
