色めく花々が咲き誇る庭園。そこは一見して綺羅びやかな……しかしその実、ドロドロとした愛憎渦巻く女の園。年若き王の伴侶、妃の候補となる女性が集められた後宮の一画である。 そんな場所には似つかわしくない快活なかけ声が、広々とした庭園に響いていた。 「はっ!ふっ!!せぇいっ!!」 声の主……背中まである鮮やかな赤い髪を無造作に首の後ろで纏め、動きやすさ重視の簡素な服を着た少女は、掛け声を発しながら一心不乱に手にした木剣を振るっている。その格好はおよそ後宮住まいの女性とは思えないものだが、彼女は世話役の女官などではなく歴とした妃候補の一人である。 服装に惑わされず、よくよく見てみれば……やや幼さが残るものの、透き通るような碧い瞳が彩る凛とした美貌は、なるほど、妃候補と言うのも頷けるかもしれない。 そんな彼女に近付く数人の人影が。剣を振る少女の様子に眉を顰め、苦言を呈するべくやって来た他の妃候補たちだ。皆、少女よりも年上らしき妙齢の女性ばかり。 その中の一人が代表して声をかける。 「ちょっと、よろしいかしら?」 「はぁっ!!やぁっ!!」 「……もし?」 「つぇいっ!!てりゃあっ!!」 「っ!無視をするんじゃありません!!!」 声をかけた妃候補は、少女がこちらに全く気が付かない事に腹を立て、手にした扇を畳んで彼女に投げつける! 「っ!?ていっ!!」 カンッ! 自分に向かってきた扇を察知した少女は、木剣でそれを弾き返した。それは投げた主のもとに、投げた時よりも倍するほどのスピードで一直線に向かい…… 「痛っ!!?」 投じた手元に当たって庭園の芝生に落ちた。 「…………あれ?どうしたんですか?皆さんお揃いで」 流石に剣を振るうのを止めた少女は、集まっていた妃候補達に向き直って不思議そうに聞く。 「いつつ……どうした、じゃありません!!何で声をかけてるのに無視するのですか!!」 「あ、レジーナさん、すみません。私、剣の稽古で集中すると周りが見えなくなっちゃって……あ、殺気とか攻撃されれば、バッチリ気が付きますから大丈夫です!」 「誰もそんな事は心配してません!……いいですか、エステルさん。ここは後宮です。将来の妃や側室に相応しい女性となるべく、互いに研鑽を重ね高め合うところ。気品、礼節、教養……そういったものが求められる場所なのですよ。それなのに、あなたときたら……」 レジーナが、こんこんとエステルを諭す。しかし、当のエステルはあっけらかんと言い放った。 「はい!だから、毎日の稽古は欠かせませんよね!」 ……ぶちぃっ! 「キェーーッッ!!!」 どうにも話が通じないエステルに業を煮やしたレジーナは、頭を掻きむしりながら奇声を上げる! 「れ、レジーナ様!!お気を確かに!!」 「ご乱心!!レジーナ様ご乱心!!」 ……とても、気品がある女性たちのやり取りには見えなかった。 ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ 「……取り乱してしまい申し訳ありません」 「いえ~、お気になさらず」 「(イラッ……!)……ふぅ。まぁ、良いです。それにしても、何であなたみたいな人が選ばれたのか……不思議でなりません」 妃候補として後宮に入る事が出来るのは、厳選な審査のもと選ばれた女性だけ。容姿はもちろん、家柄、教養、人脈、人柄……様々な素養が最高レベルで求められるのである。 「あなた……どの家の出だったのかしら?」 「家?え~と……辺境のシモン村の……父さんは村の自警団団長をやりながら、母さんと一緒に畑仕事してますね。弟と妹が一人づつの3人きょうだいです!」 「……つまり、平民でいらっしゃる……と。その時点でありえないことなのですけど」 そもそも妃候補ともなれば、それは貴族家の女性から選ばれるのが普通だ。 歴代の王の中には平民から正妃を娶った者もいたらしいが……それはあくまでも例外中の例外。実際に、この後宮に入るための選抜試験のようなものがあるのだが、それは貴族家に対してのみ募集が通達されている。 そうなると、エステルがこの場にいるのは有りえないことになるのだが…… 「いや~、私も良く分からないんですよね。騎士の登用試験を受けに来たはずなのに。どういうわけか気が付いたらここにいたんですよ。あはは~」 「あはは~、じゃありません!!何でそんなにのんびりしてるんですか。……どうやら手違いがあったみたいですね。今からでも事情を話して……」 と、そこで側に控えていた年配の女官が話に加わる。 「失礼します。僭越ながら……エステル様は確かに手違いがあったようですが、それは選考者も認識されてるとの事です。その上で、エステル様が現在後宮に入られているのは正式に認められているのです」 「……何故、そんな事を?」 「それは私めには分かりかねますが……世の中には、ミスを認めたくない方が一定数いらっしゃるものと存じます」 ともすれば、暗に貴族批判をしてるようにも受け取れる。 どうやらこの女官は、方向性は異なるがエステル並みに神経が太いようだ。 「……随分とハッキリ言いますわね。まぁ、そう言うのは嫌いではありませんけど。ですが……エステルさんはそれで良いのですか?」 「いや~……どうせ私が選ばれる事なんてあり得ませんし。選ばれなくても、後宮を出る時にはお金をもらえるらしいですし。そしたら、また騎士登用試験を受ければ良いですし。まぁ、それまではのんびりしようかな~……って」 「……逞しいですね。平民の方というのは、皆さんエステルさんみたいな方なんですかね?」 「そうですよ~」 「いえ、エステル様はかなり特殊かと。とても神経が図太くていらっしゃいます」 躊躇いなく返事をするエステルに、歯に衣着せぬ物言いでツッコミを入れる女官。 「そうですか、安心しました」 「あはは~、レジーナさん辛辣ですね~」 ……何だかんだで、彼女たちは打ち解けているようにも見えた。 ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ 「…………ふっ、やはり面白い娘だな」 女たちの姦しいやりとりの様子を、じっと眺める男がいる。金の長髪を後で束ねた貴公子。エステルより少し年上だろうか。 彼の青い瞳は、興味深そうにじっ……と彼女を見つめていた。男子禁制の後宮の中あって、誰からも見咎められる事がないその男とは、即ち…… 「剣聖の娘……か。表向きは『手違い』と言ってるが……私のもとに来た以上、そう簡単に手放しはしない」 太陽のように眩しい笑顔を振りまく少女を眺めながら……彼は怪しい笑みを、その美しい相貌に浮かべるのだった。* Chelsey *As soon as I was left alone in the bedroom I started to think of the things that I must do to avoid the thoughts of him lingering inside my head. I dressed up in my usual uniform and did not go downstairs since Josefa had not called out to me in the mind link. I wonder what Richard told her about me that she let me off the hook today. Even if I wanted to go down and speak with the others, I had a feeling that my mouth would betray me.I started by cleaning my room and removing the sheets. It is evidenced by what we did last night, the blood represents the loss of my innocence. But I have no regret, I would have given him myself a million times if I had to do it over again. I let out a heavy sigh and decided to bring everything to wash in the laundry room downstairs. Having put everything in the big laundry basket including the clothes that he left. My cheeks burn from the embarrassment as again the things reminded me of every moment that we shared last night."Chelsey! Are
* Chelsey *The first time was not that hard, and the second time was better but the third time made us both tired and I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes in the morning I heard Josefa calling to me on the mind link. "Chelsey! Where are you, did you oversleep? You are lucky that Mister Bannister is not yet awake."My eyes went wider as I looked beside me and found his handsome sleeping face, his naked body lying on my bed and his left arm under my neck. I gulp down a lump in my throat before I manage to answer Josefa in the mind link. "I'm sorry Josefa, I am about to go down now."The sun is already shining from the outside window although my curtains are covering the lights. I can see through them that it is about seven in the morning, I am already an hour late for the morning routine and Josefa only noticed it now. Well since I stayed in the guestroom, she trusted me to even work harder and do my chores better. Slowly I remove the covers only to find my body so sore from what we di
* Chelsey *I have turned down the idea of seducing Mister Bannister, and I thought that it would be impossible to let him fall for me. After a few weeks of staying in the Alpha house, I focused on my job which was to serve him and clean the upper floors. I had not expected the day when he offered me the guest bedroom upstairs and to gain his trust even made me happier than I ever was. I thought that finally, he noticed me, but it was not enough to think positively about my future with him. I am still just a maid in the Alpha house and that will not change even if I stay in the guestroom near him.But I couldn't believe my luck right now as I felt his lips roaming on all parts of my body. I bit my lips to suppress the loud moan that eventually escaped from my mouth. His lips and his tongue played with my navel and his other hand held my hip steady as I started to sway and feel the rippling pleasure surging from the pit of my stomach. His mouth did not stop there and instead he trailed
* Richard *It was almost dawn when I finally arrived at the Alpha house, after dropping off Randy I headed straight to the house and parked my truck in the garage. Everyone must be asleep except for the warrior guard in charge of watching the gates. The big house seemed empty and quiet however the presence of a she-wolf upstairs had already alerted my senses and made the temperature on my body even higher. I was feeling a bit light because of the drinks we had at the bar but it did not make me drunk as I already have high tolerance just like the rest of the wolves."Damn it!"Cursing to myself as I felt the stirring of my loins as soon as I smelled her scent and felt her in the hallway. How is she still awake at this hour? Or did she wake up because she felt me coming up from the stairs? Maybe it was a big mistake that I had let her stay in the guest room just near to mine. My legs got heavy and as I walked towards my bedroom I couldn't help but turn around and let my eyes roam towar
* Richard *The music was loud and the lights glimmer all in different colors. From the entrance, I could already smell the stink of cigarettes both cheap and premium kinds. The clink of glasses as people inside a five-star bar toast and drink. The audience inside enjoys the slow rock music and I cou
* Chelsey *The sun shone brightly in the sky as I was helping the in charge of the garden in watering the plants and flowers that we just started to grow the other day. I am not sure what the real reason was when Josefa asked me to swap with Hannan and let the older lady take care of the Alpha house
* Richard *A few knocks on the door of the library disrupted the moment of silence as each of us contemplated the matter and my disbelief rendered me more speechless than anyone inside the room. Mister Vernice smiled and uttered the word "open" to the help who was bringing the cups of coffee for the
*Alpha Charles *My heart was beating loudly against my chest and it almost had me choked out in anger when I came exactly to the place where I saw Isabella bloody and her life hanging by a thread against two wolves that bit her. It was a mistake not following her directly when she left I waited for
