Chapter 188: The Rawest Side Of You [Part 1]
Three months passed like the wind. Everything was back to normal. The construction of the new hall for the inner court was done, and I did my regular attendance there. More ladies of the court joined, and so far, it had been nothing but success.
I was currently attending court in the throne room with Drevon. This was my first time making an official appearance with him on court aside from my coronation.
I must say Drevon was completely different when he attended to ruling matters. There was a lethal air around him that I couldn’t explain, and his body language was an arousing sight, with his immense attention, focus, and the way he spoke with authority.
I had always seen the side of his sweet, loving ways, but this? Was something else entirely, and dare I say I find it way more appealing? I ponder having intimacy with this side of him. I do love how he cherishes me, but the craving for something that had to do with the rawest part of him, the one he shielded from me. I want to see it.
"The days of rain have ruined some of the regions, but with proper construction of bridges, we should be able to handle this in accordance. Working channels from the lowest levels will help too."
Gosh! The sound of that deep, masculine voice. The way he spoke so effortlessly was too much to handle. I should be focused on the meeting, but I can’t seem to take my eyes off him.
He spoke plenty, but all those words were silenced as I focused on the movement of his lips, the occasional running of his hand through his hair, and his habit of tilting his head whenever he was asked a question. I can’t get over his pose either.
I’m in trouble.
It was a long meeting, and during that period of time, many things were discussed. I realized how consuming it must be for Drevon, dealing with millions of people. I had to deal with just the noble ladies, but it doesn’t amount to this workload.
After a few hours, we were done. I had a feeling Drevon finished on time because of me.
"How was your first day in the official ruling?" he asked, kissing my ring.
"I didn’t do much. You did all the work."
"It still counts, you were by my side the entire time."
I giggled when he leaned to kiss my cheek. "Careful now, my liege, we’re still in court."
"There’s no one here. You don’t expect me to ignore you after you have had your eyes on me all day."
My cheeks got hot. Of course, he noticed! I’m suspecting he had a third eye or something because he was heavily focused on the meetings yet knew about my ogling.
"True, but what if someone—"
I couldn’t finish because Drevon picked me up like I weighed nothing and saddled me on his lap.
"Drevon!"
"I miss you," he murmured, burying his face in my neck and raining kisses.
"I—" I shuddered, unable to ignore his hot lips on my skin.
"Let me have you, my love."
Here? The thought of someone walking through that door made my pulse race.
I could feel Drevon’s lips stretch against my skin like he could guess what I was thinking. He nibbled against his mark, and I yelped, almost pushing off him, but his grip was like iron on my waist.
"It hurts!"
"Does it?" he countered, using his tongue to lick the sore spot, and I melted. "I can smell your arousal."
My chest heaved as it got difficult to breathe, a cold feeling chilled my insides, and before I could comprehend my actions, I pushed him back on the throne.
Drevon pinned me with a ravenous look that seemed like it would peel my skin away. I loved the glow in them, too.
I pulled his collar open so I could get a good view of his muscular neck. I forced apart the buttons to view his chest.
"I’m all yours, my love."
I sank my fangs into his neck, moaning at the taste of spice. I pulled away, sinking my fangs into another spot until his entire neck was covered in twin holes.
I was mesmerized by how little blood ran down his chest. I took it as my mission to lick every taint with my tongue without missing a spot. Drevon’s soft groans softened every part of me, staying still for me to have my way.
I ran my tongue to his chin before I locked my lips against his in a burning kiss. I dug my fingers into his hair and forced my tongue into his mouth, and Drevon did the same. We pant as we devoured each other.
There were sparks, many, and the heat between us only increased to the point I felt like my skin would melt off. I felt his hands on my bodice. I thought he’d have trouble with it, but I had no idea what kind of speed he was capable of until I felt him cupping my breasts.
I took my head backward as pleasure drowned through me, and he squeezed gently, groping them wonderfully. When his lips sealed against the soft flesh, my moans pitched, and I suddenly didn’t care who walked in on us.
"Mmm... haa... Drevon!" I pushed his head closer to my breasts, and Drevon happily sucked against them.
I initiated rolling my hips, feeling his bulge getting bigger; it was a continuous process, and I suddenly hated the clothes getting in the way. I wanted to feel him inside me.
As if sensing what I desire, Drevon freed my nipples, using one hand to raise my gown and the other to hold my neck in a tight hold.
Having my airways shut down momentarily should have scared me, but the trust and love I had for Drevon made me overcome that fear, and instead, I was more aroused than I have ever been.
