King's Maker [+18]

Chapter Twenty-eight

"It doesn't matter, anyways.. After this, he may just discard my body like garbage."

"Oh please, he should have done that when he knew that you kissed King Hiero." she laughed and somehow her words started to get in my brain.

"Stella, we should not give his actions any meaning, we may just get disappointed later on."

"Nah~" she fanned her hand in the air like it's nothing.

I strolled further to the grounds where markets are always such a ruckus. I didn't carry any money in me as I just planned to let my feet take me anywhere.

I placed my arms behind me as I looked around. Jewelries, perfumes, shoes, clothes..

Every seller I pass by calls for me to have a look.

I saw the park and my feet were taking me there. Many children are running around. Hmm, oh! There's an empty swing.

I walked to it and sat. I swung myself and my inner child felt so delighted.

"Hey, you are already big." a little boy frowned at me. "Oh I'm sorry, here-" I was halfway standing when a voice stopped me. "No, please sit, I'm sorry, why are you so rude, Marcus?"

A man taller than me carried the boy. Must be his s- "sorry, he's my little brother." he laughed awkwardly. "Oh no, it's fine." I chuckled to let him know it's completely fine. Brother huh, so that's why they resemble so much.

"But she's old." The little boy crossed his arms. I laughed at his attitude. I stood up and stood beside them to clearly see Marcus. "I'm sorry Marcus, I was just fascinated." I smiled at him. "Marcus, say sorry."

The man shakes the little boy in his arms a little. "Sorry." He said with a complete attitude. "I'm really sorry." the man scratched his head. "It's okay, he's a kid," I shrugged. Wow, he's really tall as I stand in front of him.

"Can I know your name-"

"Miss, you are ordered to get back." My eyes bulged when a royal guard just popped beside me.

"O-Okay." I bowed to the two and followed the royal guard quickly. What could he ask this time?

-

"Your Highness." The royal guard bowed then left after escorting me. Leaving us alone in his chamber.

What could the royal guard have whispered?

I took a quick glance at him and he's staring at me again. What now?

It's been minutes and I'm still standing and he's not talking.

Should I talk? No, I might just get myself in trouble.

Minutes passed again. I just fiddle with my fingers, not glancing one bit. "Dismissed." He said and I looked, which I shouldn't have, because his gaze looks angry. What's with him? Seriously.

I bowed and turned around. Just as I opened the door, Stella was on the other side also holding the door. "Oh, hey Y/n!" She cheered, then she whispered, "is he there?" I nodded my head, suspicious of her actions. All of a sudden, she raised her voice saying the words, "we should go meet the guy you talked to the other day-"

"Get back here!" Oh shit. I grabbed her collar and she was laughing with complete silence. "Stella!" I growled at her. "One!" He started counting, and I hurriedly closed the door on her.

I went back and he's standing this time, eyes flickering with rage. I couldn't bear to stare back, I looked down. "You like men that much?" He sarcastically spoke.

"N-No, Your Highness, she made that up to tease me-"

I watched him bend, lips near my ear. "Is your pussy in need of a scratch that bad?" I took a step back but he pulled the collar of my shirt. How could he say that to me? "Answer."

This is what I hate about men, their stupid mouth. I kept on pulling my shirt back from him but it just tore. I could care less.

I can't help my forehead from creasing because of anger. He yanked my arm. "What? Pissed that I said the truth?" He smirked.

I frowned at his dumb assumption. "I'll excuse myself, Your Highness." I turned around. "Walk out of this room and see where it gets you."

I kept walking. I opened the door and a maid was walking by, she looked my way then she bowed?

Why would she bow-

He pulled my hair, slammed the door and pushed me on the wall. He grabbed my face and lifted it to look at him.

"Is this another way of asking me to fuck you out?" His smug, curled mouth irritated me. "You're not the only man here, Your Highness." I looked him dead in the eye.

"Do they have what I have?" He arrogantly said. "No." He scoffed, smirking, but I added, "which is a good thing."

"You don't have to taunt me, I can screw you just as good without rage."

I scoffed, disbelieved. "You seem to be the one itchy, Your Highness." I smiled and I was expecting that smug smirk to falter, but it just got wider.

He saw me gulp and chuckled. "You really like to dig your own grave, don't you?" He smirked.

I stayed still, I can't retort anymore or he'll do something.

He looked down and the big tear on my shirt could expose my cleavage. I stopped breathing and stood still when he bent down and went near my collarbone.

"I told you, wear my perfume." I don't stink, why do I have to? I'll just buy myself a perfume soon.

"Your Highness, are you there?" It's the King's advisor. "Hmm."

"Would you be able to have a conversation with me about tomorrow's festival?" He stood tall and looked at me with a smirk. He opened the door and went out.

I caught my breath as I forgot to breathe. Oh God, I thought he was going to do something mischievous again.

I went to my closet and something that's silky and shiny caught my eyes. A bright pink cloth?

I took it out and it's a.. I cleared my throat.
