Oliver was lowering his head gritting his teeth forcing himself to not say anything offensive to the king. If he gave his son to his highness, his son's life will be ruined and if he didn't, his son would be killed. He was not willing to take a risk at all.
"You know I have good reason to kill both you and your son, right. I can make your this little house both of your gravestones." Suddenly king Raleigh's threatening voice echoed in the silent room.
"No, No, No. This can't be happening. My son doesn't deserve the punishment for our crime. Why is God doing this to me and my son?"
Oliver panicked thinking such thoughts. His son deserved to live a long and happy life. His wife had sacrificed her life to bring his dear son to this world. How can such a cruel man end his son's precious life? If a person is dead, they are gone forever. But if they are alive, maybe fate can ch
Oliver sighed in defeat after hearing Ives's answer. He could clearly tell how determined Ives was and how much Ives trusted and loved king Raleigh. And on the other side, he wasn't even sure if king Raleigh really loved his son and was it all just attraction, a mere moment of confusion. Clearly, his highness already had a fiance and he had also heard how much they loved each other and now his son was going to be the third person in their relationship. The rules never forbade the royals, aristocrats, and nobles to have more than one partner but the rule was there would only be one official partner, and others remaining would be their mistresses. And he knew his son was going to be the male mistress in the royal palace. Oliver would never know what sweet-talks his highness made with his son or how they fell in love but one thing was sure that his highness was threatening Ives's life to make him a force to decide on sending Ives a
King Raleigh and Ives returned home late that day. After spending the whole day on a lake with each other playing and doing... intimate things, both of them were tired. Oliver was busy in his room or lab doing medical stuff while king Raleigh and Ives were having dinner together. "Petal, you go and sleep. I have some important things to talk about with your father." King Raleigh said after they finished their dinner. "About what?" Ives asked whining like a baby. Well, he was king Raleigh's baby. "It will be a surprise, petal." King Raleigh said stroking Ives's cheek. "Now I am really curious," Ives said pouting. King Raleigh chuckled and pecked Ives's lips. "Well. it won't be a surprise if I tell you now." He then kissed Ives's forehead a
Ives was finally about to leave the place he had been staying since his childhood. He absolutely loved this place but he knew he couldn't be stuck here forever. He had to see the world beyond these mountains after all he was going to be an adult and had to take care of him and his father and he had also promised his father that he would return and give him a good life. He was happy that he was going to be with both his lover and for his career too. He smiled thinking about his bright future. Ives and king Raleigh were walking an empty path by the small road. Everywhere was white with some trees and as it was afternoon, the weather was warm and pleasant for a walk. They both were walking towards the place where king Raleigh had set up a camp before leaving for the mountain. Ives had said he knew the way, so they had a destination and were walking there holding hands. There was not a chance of ge
Commander Wesley couldn't believe what he heard for a moment. Lover?! What was king Raleigh saying? King Raleigh falling in love?! Was that even possible? He had been with his highest for the longest time but he had never thought he would be able to hear the word 'lover' from his highness's mouth one day. His highness only used to see people in two ways; useful and useless and treated them accordingly. And now suddenly his highness was declaring this stranger as his lover. He was shocked. Was Ives really deserving of his highness? Was Ives that useful for his highness? What qualities did Ives possess to be declared as his highness's lover? Most importantly, what will his highness gain from Ives? The atmosphere was awkwardly silent. Ives was now again panicking because he could feel commander Wesley's silent judgment. It was like he was looking for what Ives was worth. And Ives really didn't like it. He tightly hel
Ives and King Raleigh were on the bed cuddling with each other back in the tent, ignoring the grief outside. Ives was deeply nuzzled in king Raleigh's chest while King Raleigh was hugging Ives's waist tightly. It was already evening and most of the maids outside were starting to prepare dinner and today's dinner was going to be quite lascivious after all their king was present. Most of them were waiting for commander Jean's team to arrive too. The incident before was kept secret as Lilith was sent back to the capital with one of the soldiers. "Raleigh, why can't I talk with others?" Ives asked raising his head looking at king Raleigh's eyes directly, pouting like a child. King Raleigh smiled slightly and pecked on those lips. "It's because you are too precious. Take your time to make friends in the palace, okay." "Really?" Ives asked not so con
This journey was going to be a long one for all of them especially Ives who had left his house without knowing what destiny had stored for him. Was it a good or bad decision? Will he regret it or not? But one thing was sure, Ives's wish of going to capital was going to fulfill. All of them stopped in the small woods in the afternoon for some rest. There was a small forest and large pasture land. They sat in the small meadow by the woods and the horses were left for grazing. The maids had already started to prepare lunch. All of the soldiers were taking rest and sitting far away from the king. Only commander Jean and commander Wesley were sitting alongside his highness. His highness had just drunk a glass of water and looked in Ives's direction. Ives was running around in the meadow chasing the butterflies smiling like a child. He was so lost in the moment that he didn't notice everyone staring
To say he was beautiful would be too pale. There were no words to describe his beauty. He was different; a different kind of beauty. The dark midnight couldn't hide his beauty instead it was highlighted more by the rays of the full moon. The white moonlight gently contrasted his pale features especially those doe eyes. Those Caribbean eyes now glowed with golden sparkles around the pupil. They couldn't take their eyes off him. It was like they were hypnotized and forever wanted to get lost in those eyes. And those long brunette hair which was gently moving with the breeze like a flowing river made his face more exposed. His plump pink lips with pearly white teeth made his smile more pleasing and beautiful. Anyone would be glad to possess this beauty and yes, this was the beauty worth dying for. While some were lost in Ives's beauty, a certain person was gritting their teeth in hatred and jealousy. Of course
The bathroom didn't look like a bathroom at all. Can we even call it a bathroom if the bathroom looked like a natural hot spring. Instead of a bathing tune, there was a small pond made up of granites and stones. It was further decorated with small plants and flowers. Hot steam was blowing making the bathroom look full of mist. Ives was really amazed to see that such a bathroom also existed. "Do you like it?" King Raleigh asked Ives, snaking his arm around Ives's waist. "It's so beautiful. How did you construct this?" Ives asked. "Ah, this pond was naturally here. I just made my palace around this area." "You are a genius." Ives said laughing softly. King Raleigh then started to put his hands inside Ives's shirt, feeling every area of Ives's body. Ives moaned softly as he was very much sensitive and the surrounding was also not helping at all. The whole ba
