Myths and Legends

Chapter Three

I loved that I could wear whatever I wanted. Not having to wear that same old maids dress that the masters all choose for the maids to wear. The long black and white dresses that made it hard to clean anything without it getting caught on corners or whatnot. I got tired of them and they were so uncomfortable. But this shirt and leggings were to my liking. The leggings fit perfectly while the shirt was a little big but I didn't care about that.

Making my way down to the kitchen once more I saw Meivris still in the kitchen but he was talking to someone about dinner plans he had with his girlfriend. The other guy was giving him pointers on what not to do or something. I picked up that his girlfriend was a witch. I just smiled to myself walking back down to the basement.

I knocked on the door. It opened immediately to show King Azaix standing there with no shirt on and only boxers on. It took everything not to look down but he smiled waving me to come in. I walked in as he made his way over to the bed that had his clothes for the day. They were all black. Why wasn't I surprised to see that our attire was the same.

''I can wear something else so we aren't matching.''

I smiled. ''No it's fine. I don't mind at all.'' Huh I keep forgetting. But oh well I guess.

Right at that moment I felt an arm wrap around my waist. My breath caught and I blushed. For someone that had a mate and didn't want to tell me. I could only guess.

''My king.'' My voice trembled at the thought of his arm around me. I didn't want that women to come and see me in his arms. She was already upset and pissed at me. She made it very clear that he was her's.

''I don't belong to her,'' he whispered to me. His warm breath hitting the back of my neck sending a shiver down my body.

Please..... Please don't let him just being playing with me. If this what I think is happening.... Please let be real. I want real love and not fake love. Just thinking about it made a tear rolled down my face. King Azaix stepped around me. His eyes widen as he looked at my reaction but before me could saying someone was at the door.

''WHAT DO YOU WANT!'' He snapped. The new comer jumped a little before recovering.

''I'm so sorry Azaix. But there's been an attack.''

King Azaix turned to face him. Clearly it wasn't good to hear that someone had attacked the camp. They rushed out leaving me to stand in the middle of the room. I wanted to go but I looked over at the bed and just felt drained again. It was like the bed was calling my name. So I didn't refuse to lay down and sleep.

Again the nightmare plagued my dreams. I was screaming and kicking in my dream as Master Garrett was attacking me. Biting me. The venom hurt so badly that I couldn't hold back the pain I felt.

I woke screaming. But I woke to King Azaix over me, shaking me. I was covered in sweat and my whole body was shaking.

''I'm here.'' King Azaix pulled me into his arms. I cried into his chest and he just rubbed circles on my back trying to comfort me. ''I'm here for you.'' That helped a lot. I cried a little more but after I calmed down King Azaix pulled back to look down at me. ''Are you okay now?'' He asked. 

Wiping my eyes. ''Yeah I'm good now. Thank you.'' I was grateful he was willing to comfort me.

''I'd do anything anything for you.''

I locked eyes with his. Did he really mean that? My heart fluttered. My breathing became shallow. Sitting on my knees, I was about to take a chance. This would either end well or it would be the end of what little relationship I had with King Azaix.

Slowly I placed my hands on the side of his face and kissed him. Yes I really kissed King Azaix. I was so nervous that he would push me away. That he'd reject me. Something I feared the most. After seeing..... Seeing it first hand at the castle. I didn't want that for me.
