Smiling at her he said in a voice light and gentle.
"Those men will become your escorts if you wish to go out however they also have orders not to let you go to certain places where it could be too dangerous and they would not be able to protect you. Also, would they fail their life will end! Either killed by enemies or by my own blade!"
While his words where sounding unthreatening toward her, he was saying if she made a move to leave and disappeared from her guards because of an accident he would not spare them at all. Therefore if she ran away those four men would pay with their life.
However, she had long dismissed the thoughts of escaping him after all she knew well that the substance she had been drugged with on their first night made it awkward for her to run away, on top of that, ever since she had accepted him as her husband he always had treated her well.
She made a soft rea.s.suring smile to him as she leaned against his chest.
"You do not need to make it hard on them I will not do something that could lead to making troubles for you or them."
She smiled and paused a moment before continuing.
"After all that night you gave me a choice and I chose to follow you, becoming your one and only wife. In this life as long as you do not betray are oath I will not betray it as well. And for better or worse will stand by you."
She held his hand as she gazed at his deep blood red eyes.
His hair fell a bit to the front slightly unkempt from all his running around and little time he had to get groomed properly.
Hearing her say those words some of his worries were instantly alleviated. Flipping his hand so he held her instead, as he pulled her up in close to him by that hand.
The motion making the silk white hood that covered her fire hair fall her hair and clothes swaying the set of action creating an immortal faery with a demon G.o.d dancing illusion, as he kissed her deeply while he held her close with his free arm.
He savoured the deep kiss even had to restrain himself not to flip her up and take her back inside to take her at the door once it had been closed.
He had to use a lot of self-control and struggle with his inner demons as soon as this little fey was concerned.
He would never get enough of the two round softness mounds or her back plum little roundness even that blooming honey flower that crowned her secret garden all of it made it hard for him to not pa.s.s his days snuggled into them.
That l.u.s.tful gaze did not escape her eyes. Now she recognized it easily at glance and it made her blush deeply as she lowered her head not to meet his gaze she was being far to shy!
Knowing his inner thoughts she felt like melting.
Knowing and having a good grasp of what that man was thinking of, but she was wis.h.i.+ng to go out to play! Plus her entire body was still sore from the tumble he had given her last night!
Looking at her reddening ears tips, he made a smirk that very soon turned into a broad smile.
"Well now let's go before you lock me in the room with all those dirty thoughts of yours."
He purposely teased her by giving her sides a good tickling having her squirm forward breaking into laughter before she tried to escape that :death: like grip of tickles.
At the same time, Dravick exited his quarters and caught the actions of Arkalat as he played around with his wife.
He spotted the new acquisitions that the general had made the night prior.
His face momentarily grew very dark. He never expected him to buy guards for her.
That girl life, it seemed it had to weigh more than he first thought.
Lucky, the girl seemed uninvolved with the any of the rulers including ongoing world power struggles or she would have to be taken care of.
But it would be a precarious mission the one safeguarding her was not to be taken lightly essentially he would not be a mear first rank general if he had wished…
Still, if she was as naive as she let them see then that was also good at least she would be no threat to their plans.
Speranza, however, had no clue that she was seen as a menace to their plan by the prince or she would have given him a glorious index finger with a huge eye roll…
They ran in the hallway as she ran for the exit giggling like silver bells chimes.
While he could easily catch her in moments but he enjoyed the diversion of tag play letting her escape a few times before capturing her again.
Once she was in his grasps, he would then give her a penalty of being ruthlessly tickled in sudden attacks before letting her squirm free and start the chase all over again.
Until they reached the door where an out of breath Speranza was ambushed by him.
He took her into his arms lifting her up off the ground looking to each other's eyes, he held her firmly hugged between his strong arms before he deeply kissed her once more placing her gently down on her tiptoes.
Wrapping her arms around his neck she answered this deep kiss only when she felt out of breath and dizzy did he recede the kiss.
Leaving her gasping for air and dizzy.
Nestling to his side as he placed an arm around her slender waist they finally left the inn to walk around the more well-kept part of this h.e.l.l hole swamp town.
Of course, both the prince and his maid had seen the scene and were both quite shocked general grim reaper knew how to play tag without killing the prey?
Seeing their incredulous look in each other eyes they mutually coughed and acted as if seen nothing know nothing.
Arkalat lead Speranza to the docks where there was an animal merchant. He had heard girls liked cute animals from one of the slaves he had brought.
Deciding to see if his lady would like some animal to have some companies when had to be kept inside and unable to go out.
While the boats would be large enough to place up to four large mounts to use in port towns…
Speranza let him lead her she quietly walked she could feel eyes on her making her shrink over holding her cloak with her hands at the front keeping it shut as she cursed the too revealing outfit.
Catching her struggles by his eye corner he took off his jacket made of black leather which had multiple sharp metal studs on the collar and shoulders, placing the coat on her small slender shoulders, it was three times too wide for her dos making her look so daringly adorable and cutesy.
He then placed his arm around her waist again as she walked cuddled up by her mightiest loving stronghold.
