The Shadows of Royalty

Her Puppet

Chapter 30

3rd Person Point of View

She glanced both ways before opening the door. The man walked in, briefly shutting the door.

He looked at the women before him. It was the same female he was with yesterday. Except, yesterday, they were behind the columns of Eve.

"Your Majesty," he bowed down. She smiled as she glanced at her maid of honor, who was cleaning.

The maid shyly glanced at the man, and blushed when he threw her a wink.

The maid walks out the room, giving them privacy.

Her highness rushes to lock the door as the man wraps his arms around her and pecks her lips.

"Not in here, Jack." He rolls his eyes as he settles onto the luxurious couch.

The woman slowly approached the man as she sat on his lap.

"What news do you bring me?" She murmured.

He grunts as he cups her face with his rough hands.

"Everything is going as planned. Fear nothing." He replies, stoking the side of her face.

She looks up to him and smiles, her green eyes taunting him to touch her.

"Good job, what do you wish for repayment?"

The man pondered. "What can you offer me, after your exceeding generosity?"

She giggles as she wraps her arms around his neck. "The usual and of course anything for you-"

She reaches into her grand dress and pulls out a small bag. She shook it.

"You are going to accept this gift from me. 5,000 gold coins."

The man arched his brow as he frowned. "That is too much. You already shower me with jewels and estates. I have more than enough, your majesty."

Her majesty pumps her lips. "For your family then."

The man's face saddened a bit. His only family left was his 7 year old sister. He had his his sister in an estate with a nanny. He longed to hear her giggles and warm tiny hugs. He had truly missed his sister. Never less, it's been a long time since he had visited.

Her majesty continued. "Buy her dresses and whatever she desires."

The queen's sympathetic eyes, tugged the small pouch into his messenger bag. He nodded as she places her slender finger into her moist lips.

"Enlighten me with the report in the morning. The king has left, so it's time for my gift to you. He smiled at her suggestion and knew he could never refuse.

And he didn't.

He woke up to her hand that caressed his chest. She had a grin playing on her lips, as she pulled over the bed sheets over her body.

"Your Majesty?" The man asked, starring off into a distance.

"Yes?"

He faked a smile as he turned towards her. "What do you wish for me to do for you today?"

She purses her lips as she gets up, wrapping the satin sheets around her. The man put his hands behind his neck, watching her intently.

"Well, I need you to go and find more information. The evidence you have found is inefficient."
