I became the king's obsession 26: Magic word.
"Athena sure is taking a lot of time," says the queen while waiting in the library. "Madam, may I come in?" says the maid who came in perfect time."Have you brought me the lilac candle?""Here, madam.""Thank you. Hmm... If I happen to leave this world, you'll be one of the people I will be missing," says Aileen, who thought she should properly bid goodbye to her maid if her ritual later met success."Madam, what are you trying to say?" says the maid. Athena embraced the queen and soon apologized for her actions before the law of the land."Nothing. I just have this feeling that I'll leave this world sooner than I expected.""Madam, I'll be back. I'll bring you something to ease your loneliness."Athena ran off the library and headed to the royal kitchen. She asked the royal cook to bake a box of chocolate for the queen. Meanwhile, Aileen started her ritual according to the instructions stated in the book she had read. She lit the three lilac candles that surrounded her. Then, the
I became the king's obsession 27: Uncontrollable variable.
King Viishaun could not focus at all. He stood up and almost threw all the papers he just finished before his secretary came in. "Any news worth hearing?" He asked, cleaning his sword in front of his secretary. "His excellency, the news about you and the queen at the gala had spread around the kingdom, and I doubt it would stop circulating among social circles. There is no reason to worry because nothing strange is going on. They are looking forward to seeing the queen, my lord." "Any news about the imperial palace and shadow government?" "They are all about the upcoming wedding of the first prince, and I heard the emperor will finally proclaim him as the crown prince." "Keep an eye on factions. I'm sure they will try to use that event to cause a rift in politics." "Yes, your excellency." The secretary left after that conversation. Viishaun sat back in his royal chair and let out a breath that almost sounded 'Phew' "Acting a little weird and mushy at the gala is something I'm n

"You d*mn drunk woman. Stop provoking me. I’m not Shaun.” Viishaun was holding back from turning on because he might not stop himself from his manly calling. He managed to open the door to their bed-chamber. The king tossed her to the bed and watched her body bounce on top of the bed. He didn't see her arms coming, reaching his neck. "Achkk---- Are you trying to kill me?" he said, arching his arms in the bed to support his weight. His chest is almost close to touching her boobs as she keeps pulling him. "Get your hands off me! Go to sleep!" He uttered in desperation because he was close to exploding as the queen's cleavage greeted him. "Get out! You're not Shaun. I only want to see Shaun. Go away and bring me my Shaun," says the queen, still looking messy drunk. He placed his palm on her eyes and told her, "I said sleep. Why won't you listen to me... the king?" "You like that woman, don't you? I get that 'Viishaun' must bear feelings for the princess. But I hate it if 'Shaun'

"We should make that bastard Viishaun off our empire. What if he's planning to ruin the proclamation day? I heard he stationed assassin marquises to serve as his eyes. Moreover, he has the backing most from parliament. We can't sit still and watch him gather underlings to control the monarch.""You're right, mother. He probably wants to get the crown. He is aiming for the throne I should inherit. He had always been competing to get our father's attention. We can't fall at ease, not until I became the emperor. Good thing we have the backing of other Nobles and Aristocrats. Moreover, we have the orthodox backing, the church's influence will come in handy for us." Vincreste Argus Allandis XVI replied.Vincreste Argus Allandis XVI was the first son of Emperor Argus to his political married wife— empress Viniah. On the other hand, King Viishaun Argus Allandis XVII was the second son and last offspring of the emperor to his royal concubine—Margauxxe Zepheus."His Royal highness had always
I became the king's obsession 30: First prince's wedding
"Madam, you look beautiful. I bet the king will fall head over heels with you again," says Athena while clapping her hands and adoring the queen. Aileen blinked her eyes and stared at the figure of a woman wearing a pink gown, accompanied by a white-pink slashed cap sequined with white and pink crystals. The queen smiled and replied, "It depends." 'It depends... if he's Shaun. Then he'll surely love the way I look right now. However, if he's in his usual self, he'll simply shrug his shoulders. That guy doesn't have a sense of appreciation,' says the voice inside Aileen's head. "What do you mean, madam?" Aileen failed to answer the maid when an interruption occurred. "What's taking you lo—" The king barged in unannounced but almost dropped his jaw. He used to see his wife with average attire, still beautiful, but today she looks like an expensive statue. "Shaun? Do I look weird?" Aileen asked, caressing the crown in her head. She felt awkward wearing the heavy crown made of pur
I became the king's obsession 31:Queen’s duty.
"Your excellency, the queen had received a pile of invitations. What should we do about the envelopes?" the secretary asked."Burn them all and tell them the queen is busy with the kingdom's financial affair."He was busy checking the tax and security reports in his jurisdiction, but he lost focus after the secretary brought up the queen. He slapped the desk and stood up, which made the secretary jump in surprise."Y-Your excellency, is something bothering you?""Uhm... the queen, where is she right now?"Viishaun left his office and did not wait for the reply of his secretary. He bumped into the maid who was always with his wife. So he asked, "Where's your madam?"The maid bowed her head and replied, "Your excellency, the madam has been in the library since this morning."The king headed to the library and stood next to the threshold. He crossed his arms and uttered no word, but his head was stuffed with thoughts... 'What's keeping her busy all day? Moreover, Why am I here? What's
I became the king's obsession 32: Nuisance
"What's with that shabby clothes again? You're the queen of this kingdom, so you should start acting like one. Spend at least 500 gold coins every month." "Pardon?!" Aileen asked. "What's so shocking about spending your monthly allowance?" The king crossed his arms and stood impatiently. "Should I be spending other people's taxes? This is way worse than the corruption in my world," Aileen asked, hesitating to obey the King's order. It does not feel right for her to spend other people's hard-earned money. "This is how this world works. We, royal families, have privilege, and responsibilities go hand in hand. And if such privilege can't be trusted with you. Then, you have no right to such responsibilities," Viishaun replied. "I don't understand why spending money is a responsibility." Aileen scratched her jaw and tried to make sense. "You have dignity and image to impose. Are you telling me to let the queen of this kingdom wear shabby clothes and poor accessories? Do you want th
I became the king's obsession 33: Full moon and love.
The queen stared at the garden as she passed and stood on the vanguard tower. Then, Aileen had remembered the leaf on her hair. She sighed and muttered to herself, "I shouldn't have listened to that book." The rationale why she went to the garden that day was to get a butterfly as part of the preparation for casting a spell. According to the book, she has to burn red petals of rose and Butterfly's antennae. At first, it's too cruel to do that to an insect, but despite her conscience bugging her not to waste the creature's antennae, she still proceeded, following the book's mandates. 'If it wasn't for that leaf. I wouldn't have mistaken Viishaun from Shaun,' is what her mind jogging circles as she makes her way to her office. "Madam, are you going to start working now?" says Athena, who Aileen had bumped into. "Yes. I will start reading what I should do in my office." "Don't worry, madam. The king will bring in a lady-in-waiting/finance adviser to work as your alter ego, so you do
