Pharaoh's First Love

63

“I will speak with a bit later. Would… you mind doing me a favor? There’s something special I would like made for supper tonight. Do you think you can get to the market and get it for me?”

Amarie’s curious eyes laid upon Shelyn once more and again the girl’s thighs tensed together. Shelyn seemed like such a sweet girl. She was truly happy the pharaoh had found such a nice person that was worthy enough to potentially marry. After all, Amarie knew with her background and family status she never would have been considered even if she had ended up pregnant.
“Just be careful. She is our pharaoh’s oldest friend and oldest lover. She holds more sway over him than you think, at least for now, but...” She began brushing out Shelyn’s hair. “I hope you don’t think too poorly of me, but I had heard you two this morning as I was going to ask what you would like for breakfast. I did turn around and leave, just so you know, but it sounds as if… again, sorry if this sounds rude, the pharaoh usually doesn’t make noise like that. You must have been upon his mind for some time. Anyway, of course, what could I get for you?” she asked curiously, still out the girl’s luxurious blonde hair

She felt her cheeks burn as her fingers grasped the front of her dress, embarrassed. “He said I had been in thoughts...often...” she admitted. How embarrassing to of been heard, her and Calion. So much for not telling anyone. Of course, her status was never an issue. Even Calion made it a point to embed it in her mind that she was beyond worthy of him. Yet it seemed Mirien was the only one who would get between. And if Calion didn’t love her there be little she could do to keep her from ruining things. Even if Calion had plans to marry her eventually, she clearly needed a child in order to secure anything.

“I suppose I will just have to make Calion fall in love with me to the point he has no choice but to send her away so we can live happily ever after.” She smiled innocently.

Amarie giggled behind Shelyn. “He has a good heart. Even to the concubines he’s been with he’d always treated all of them very nicely. That being said you’re going to have to prove to him you’re equal. He likes being in control, after all he is pharaoh, but I think the whole reason why Mirien had been placed so high above all the others was due to the fact she was older than him, more experienced and shown him quite a few things. In a sense she dominated him in bed, I imagine. Not that you need to go that far, but I’m sure there are a few things you could introduce to keep him on his toes.”
Amare bit her cheek and her cheeks began to burn as she leaned in against Shelyn and wrapped her arms around to hug the girl from behind. “He prefers his concubines to be very clean. Hairless and perfectly presentable, but what really excites him at times is stuff like...” She gulped, hoping Shelyn would understand this was just an example and wouldn’t think too poorly of the concubine.
“On second thought...you might think a bit too poorly of me.” She said as she nearly confessed some rather lewd imagery.

“You’re probably right… I might. I might think that that’s all you know how to do...” she admitted. “But then again you are probably right. I probably just need to teach him something that Mirien can’t do. Aside from my youth.”

She didn’t think much on the act of the concubine, it was just a hug after all, but now her mind thought. What could she do better? A goddess of beauty and music. Perhaps she would steal his heart by seducing him with a natural talent? “Hmm… well I will just need to learn the things he did with you... and try to make them things I do for him. Maybe I can entice him by song.”

She was always clean and hairless. Of course, now that she thought on it was probably time, she returned for her waxing anyway.

“Of course, … I could just give him a baby and use that as a reason to be rid of her.” she giggled. It felt nice to know someone actually knew what she did about that woman. Even though Calion didn’t believe it. “Let’s find Calion? I want to ask him before I forget.”

“I don’t mind telling you the things he has done, or the things he personally enjoys but won’t ask for. You have to understand that sex is between the two people and there shouldn’t be judgement or fear that secrets will get out. Personally I’d only share this with you because for starters you’re the first non-concubine which has a shot at freeing us from Mirien, secondly because I don’t mind sharing with you these things and thirdly I don’t mind sharing what Calion likes because ultimately it’ll make him happy and he does deserve to be happy after all.” She said, backing away slight at the light in her eyes dimmed ever so slightly in sadness. After all she had very much loved the pharaoh, he was her first and only, but she understood her position well and knew it was unlikely she’d ever be called upon again, especially if Shelyn ended up with child.

She only smiled at the comment of having a child with Calion. After all she believed the pharaoh wasn’t capable of having children. She didn’t know that the herbs she received during the period of time she slept with the pharaoh caused her to be unable to have a child during that time.
“As you wish m’lady.” Amarie said sweetly, waiting for Shelyn to lead the way. “I’ve always wanted to say that.” Again, she giggled lightly.

Shelyn smiled and lead the way. Despite today being the day, she would bury her family she had something to smile about. She made a single friend aside from Prince Jin and Calion.

She left the room. Down the stairs that led to the bedroom. She wandered the hall a bit. Thinking on where Calion might have run off to and started to make her way to the medical wing.

“I think after we should go get my brother those roses he liked so much. I wonder if Calion would allow me to leave for a bit today...” she thought out loud to herself.

Calion’s skin was nearly glowing despite what was to take place this day. Being the virile man, he was, and his proclamation of being a god, he always felt and stronger and more energetic, as if he had a greater and warmer life force after bedding. So much so it was nearly addictive which perhaps lent itself as to why he had such a large harem. His hair was braided back, the dark color had a healthier sheen than normal, his skin was smooth and without blemish. If anything, he seemed more beautiful than ever as he was making arrangement would be made to be certain Helm was set ablaze without fault. Additionally, a closed casket for her father as he was quite burned and therefore not suitable to be seen openly, but he too would go with his son.

He had wanted this to go without a hitch, to keep Shelyn pleased and happy as he was quite enthralled by the bodily pleasure she had to offer and he much preferred her decent spirits considering the fact he hardly doubted he’d be able to keep himself off her for too long.
