Royally Screwed (COMPLETED)

16. WALK OF SHAME

16. WALK OF SHAME

Elijah's POV

I woke up the next morning with a massive headache. I tried to remember what happened yesterday and it came back to me bit by bit.
Shopping. Makeover. Dinner. Club and...
I blushed remembering all that happened between me and Marcus last night.
After our little freaky time, we cleaned up and got dressed before heading back to join the others.
They gave us a knowing looks but I pretended as if nothing happened.
After that we had more and more drinks and the rest of the night was a blur.

I tried to move but that's when I realized there was a hand around my waist. Not only that but I realized my pillow was actually a rock-hard chest which was oddly comfortable.
I forced my eyes open as I came face to face with a sleeping Marcus.
He looked so handsome and peaceful. I couldn't help but admire him.
I turned my head and took in my surroundings. It was an unfamiliar room which I assumed was his.
I turned back to face prince charming when we locked eyes. He smiled.

"Good morning" he greeted in his deep sexy morning voice.
"Good morning," I responded with a smile. "Last night was crazy"
"Yes, it was. So much that I want a repeat," he said before kissing me.
"Slow down, cowboy," I said as I pushed him back.
"As much as I like that idea, I'm still sore from last night," I said.
"Fine," he said and kissed me again.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and we both jumped in shock.
I silently screamed, as the pain in my lower back got worse because of the sudden movement.
"Marcus, honey. Are you decent? We need to talk," I heard an unfamiliar voice outside.
"Shit. It's my mom," Marcus said as he panicked.
"As in the queen," I whisper shouted and he nodded vigorously.
I need to hide. I don't think his parents would appreciate me shacking up in his room when I have been here for less than a week.

I stood up but I lost balance because my legs were still weak. Luckily Marcus caught me because of his quick reflexes.
That's when I realized we were both butt naked and I knew my face had turned bright red in embarrassment.
I know we had sex more than once, but it was still kind of awkward to be naked together the morning after.

"Marcus?" He called out again.
"Just give me a moment. I'm just dressing up," he said back before carrying me into the bathroom.
"Just give me a moment," he said as he walked out but a few seconds later he came back and kissed me. When he was done, he smiled at me before leaving and closing the door.
I stood by the door curious about what they wanted to talk about.

Marcus's POV

I put on black shorts and a grey t-shirt before opening my bedroom door.
My other father whom I addressed as mother (I didn't mention this before but there are male carriers in this story. So, the queen actually gave birth to Marcus. If you are not into that I'm sorry but we can't have a half blood prince) came into my room.

"Morning, Mom," I greeted before he hugged me and kissed me on the cheek, "What brings you here this early in the morning? I was going to come and check up on you as soon as I got ready. Should you be out and about in your condition?"
"Don't worry about me. I'm feeling so much better now. And to answer your first question, I came here to talk to you before your father and I left for an early appointment," he said as we both took a seat on the couch in my room.

"Okay. Is there a problem?" I asked.
"No problem. Well, I hope there isn't a problem," he said.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"I know you are not happy about this whole marriage arrangement but it's tradition. One we can't break. Your father chose me the same way and look at how happy we are. Take time. Get to know each and everyone of the women and men who are here for you. I'm sorry we had to force you to do this Marc," he said as he ran his fingers through my hair.
"It's okay mom. I'm not mad. Well, at first I was, even if I didn't say anything but after meeting them I realized that maybe this isn't such a bad idea," I responded with a smile.

"Is there someone you like so far?" He asked with a smirk. I blushed and he smiled.
"Looks like everything is going well," he laughed.
"Tell me all about him or her when we get back. I need to go before your father sends his guards after me," he said standing up.
"It wouldn't be the first time," I said and we both laughed.

Elijah's POV

As soon as the coast was clear, Marcus snuck me back to my room.
That was a really close call but at least no one saw us together. It was obviously going to cause problems if people started talking.
After a long hot bath my muscles relaxed and I felt a whole lot better. My tummy growled and I knew it was time for breakfast.
By the time I got to the dining room everyone, including Marcus, were already eating breakfast.
No matter how hard I tried I couldn't help but limp to my seat. Damn Marcus and his huge ass dixk. He needs to be more gently but the other problem was I also liked it rough.
Curse my dirty mind and newly discovered kinks.

"Good morning, Eli," Ethanael greeted and soon after more greetings were passed from around the table.
"Are you okay? Why are you limping?" I hoped no one would ask but then innocent Alyssa had to pop the question.
Marcus coughed as he choked on his food obviously shocked at the question.
"I'm okay honey. I just slipped and hit my knee against the tub," I said with a smile.
"OH MY GOSH. Do you need to go see the doctor?" Alyssa asked and I noticed a few concerned faces.
"Don't worry, I will be fine. I rubbed some ointment and took some pain killers. I should be fine by end of day."

They all relaxed and I was relieved there were no further questions.
I looked up and locked eyes with Marcus and we gave each other a knowing look.
It was his fault I had to experience this walk of shame but I did not regret what we did. I was even willing to do it again. I couldn't wait.

Crazy couple. Do you agree?
