Chapter The Alpha’s Temptation – Scene 334
The guards let Princess Eri go. Eri walked through the corridors of the east wing, admiring the beauty of the garden and the grandeur of the palace. As soon as she reached the bedchamber of the king and queen, the guards stopped her all over again. She rolled her eyes and said, “I am Princess Eri of Eridanus.”
“We will let the king know that you are here. Please wait, princess,” said one of the guards.
“No, you won’t do that. The king asked himself to come to his chamber and you are interrupting his orders. Do you want me to tell the king what you are up to?” she threatened.
The guards looked at each other then removed their spears to allow her to go in. Eri entered the foyer, chuckling on the inside that the guards fell victim to her lies. She patted herself for being so confident about it. She hadn’t crossed the foyer when someone opened the doors of the main bedroom and peeked outside.
Flora stepped out, giving Eri a look with a question on her face. She left the door open.
“Oh, where are your manners?” Eri said, scanning the room behind her. “Being a maid to the queen, you have some very bad manners.”
Flora jerked her head back. She bowed to the Princess and said, “I am sorry m’lady, but what can I do for you?”
“I have come to meet King Eltanin. He asked me to come to his chamber.” Another confident lie. And who the hell was the maid who would stop her?
“I see,” Flora replied. “But he isn’t here.”
“How dare you speak a lie!” Eri snapped. “I know that he is here. What do you think you are? Don’t you go all fae on me!”
Flora’s mouth opened slightly. She felt like snapping at the girl in front of her, but that was of no use. “Why will I lie to a princess of your stature?” she said. “I am not a fool to do so, especially when the lie will be caught easily. At the same time, you said that the king had called you. Why would I go against the orders of my king? If you want, you can go into the bedchamber and see for yourself.”
That was the opportunity Eri was looking for. She walked inside the bedroom and what she saw there made her blush heavily. Undergarments and laces and towels were littered everywhere. But there was no sign of the king. Her glance went to the balcony, but the king wasn’t there either.
Flora came in after her. When she looked at Eri as to how awkward she was feeling, she apologized. “I am so sorry for the mess you have to see,” she said as she gathered the clothes from the bed. “You see these two are humping like little bunnies!” Flora chuckled. She picked up more clothes. “After all they have just married and our king can’t have enough of her.” She gathered all the undergarments from the bed and placed them on a couch. “Oh! I missed that one,” Flora said and hurried to pick a lace that was tied to the bedpost. She opened it as she glanced at Princess Eri. “The king has crazy fetishes,” she laughed.
Princess Eri was… shocked. “Wh– where is the king?” she asked in a squeaky voice, feeling so awkward that she wanted to turn and go away. The little fae had been keeping the king very busy. Who knew that the little girl would turn into such a s*x addict?
“The king was supposed to be meeting the prince and the kings, but he decided to go to the orchards along with Queen Lusitania,” Flora replied, untying the lace from the bed and keeping it on the pile of the rest of the undergarments.
Eri’s mouth fell to the floor. “But he said, he won’t go!” she replied in an incredulous voice.
“Oh, is it so?” Flora said, putting her fingers on her chin and musing. “I don’t know that, Princess Eri,” she shrugged. “They are kings. Who knows what they keep thinking?” She sighed and then started to do her work. “If you have anything to convey to His Highness, please let me know and I will convey.”
Eri shook her head vehemently. She had dressed up beautifully and seductively for him, but now her plans went down the drain.
“Then in my opinion, you must go to the orchards. The guards can take you there on the horse. You shouldn’t walk. You are wearing such a beautiful gown. It will get muddy and dirty,” Flora suggested.
Eri nodded and then turned to leave quickly. She was gritting her teeth. Now she had to go to the orchards otherwise it would look absolutely ridiculous that she had come to meet him in the bedchambers but won’t meet him in the orchards. So she almost started running through the corridors. Her two guards met her on the way. One of them said, “Princess Petra is getting ready. It seems that the king has called her.”
Eri pursed her lips. She thought that it would be good that the bitch come to the king’s chambers and not meet him. Why should she only look like a fool? “Get the horse ready for me. I have to go to the orchards.”
When Eri was coming to the king’s bedchamber, Flora had picked up her voice from the corridor. She knew what these princesses were all about. She had rushed to the wardrobe of the king and queen and took out their clothes. She littered them all over the bed and also tied Tania’s lace on the bedpost. After that what happened was absolutely hilarious. She was folding the clothes and about to keep them in the closet when she heard another female voice. She sighed and littered all the undergarments on the bed all over again. She had to warn her lady about these girls. The door opened and Princess Petra walked in, all dolled up.
Flora smiled at her.
