"I want you gone by morning. Your son can stay as long as he likes, but take that brat of a daughter and her husband with you."
Elric's formal order made even me want to cringe. The man had a way of commanding the attention of everyone in the room with a simple look, a single word. Dear gods, I wonder what it would be like if he used that tone on me when-
"Syn. Eliza will be staying here from now on, I've had a room prepared for her near yours. Although, I have no intention of keeping you in a separate bedroom from me for much longer."
My mother and father sat across from us, Elric's gargantuan dark wood desk between us. Father had a scowl on his face and a glare in my direction.
"Syndra-" he began.
"You will address her as my queen, your highness, or ma'am. I also suggest you wipe that glare off your face before I do it for you, swine."
Everyone in the room was silent after that, even Elric as he glared at my father.
"As I said before. I want you gone by morning. I will have my mother and father pay a visit to your village and choose the new council members. I don't want to see your faces again, or hear your names. Now, get out."
I had no clue Elric could hold so much anger at bay. Once they had left the room his desk was flipped upside down, cracking in two. Papers littered the floor, ink stains scattered here and there.
"I'm sorry mouse. I didn't mean to frighten you."
As I glanced at him, his eyes burned an intense red and the muscles in his arms stood out even more. As he released the breath he'd been holding, a dark plume of smoke escaped his lips and I felt myself grow wet at the sight. How strange, everything he did made me want him even more.
Elric's head snapped towards me as his nostrils flared.
"By the gods, woman. You're perfect." Eric's deep growl made me shiver.
I stood, sliding the dress sleeves down before releasing the clasp and letting it pool at my feet. He had never seen me completely naked before, and I admit as another first, I was worried about what he'd think. If the very prominent, very large bulge in his pants was any indication, he liked what he saw.
"Mmm. I could feast on you all day."
I strode towards his chair and sat before spreading my legs over the arms. I could feel his eyes on me as he followed behind.
"Kneel." I ordered.
"You play a dangerous game, mouse." Elric growled as he knelt on the ground. He ended up having to lean forward even more so his face could rest at the junction between my legs. I felt his hot breath, heard his groan, and then I felt his tongue caress my delicate flower and I damn near exploded upon first contact.
