The Tyrant's Pet

The next day...

"Ahh..." Aries arched her back, holding the headboard of the bed on either side of Abel. She bounced up and down, mouth open, moaning at the tension in her nether region while he slurped her nipple and fondled the other.

"Ahh... Abel... uh!"

She flinched and her voice sounded distant in her ringing ear. She felt lightheaded as she panted, clenching around his girth. Aries shuddered when he bit her nipple, keeping it in between his teeth, raising his eyes up at her.

"Feels good," she breathed out and hunched in, planting a peck on him. "Did you like it?"

He grinned against her lips, kissing her back slowly. "Very much."

"Haha... you enjoyed being defiled, huh?" she teased, biting his lips back to fight for dominance. With the chaos going on in the imperial palace after Roman's disappearance, the two of them didn't show the slightest care about the outside world other than the two of them.

"Well, you caught me off guard." He chuckled, squeezing her rear, and massaged them. "With how you cried last night, begging me to take a break only to sleep, I didn't expect to be woken up with your sucking."

"I was trying to make up with you for that."

"You're quick." He bats his eyes, watching Aries draw her head back. As soon as she created a space between them, his eyes fell on her breast, and licked his lips. He raised his hand, cupping her breasts, which were perfect for the size of his hand. The body paint on her skin had faded, but one could still see the design across her body and the twirls reaching down to her hips and legs.

When Abel raised his eyes up at her, he smirked in amusement. "You shouldn't let them fade completely."

"Huh?" Aries gazed down, only to see the fading paint on her body. "Right..."

She touched her hips, fingers flicked, feeling her body, and eyes at him. "You mentioned this is some sort of witchcraft."

"It is, darling. But if you touch yourself like that, even witchcraft will not protect you from me." His eyes darkened, watching how her hands reached for his that were cupping her breast. "Sexy."

"Is there a time you're not hard?" she giggled, feeling his erection, which was still inside her while she was saddling him, poking her insides.

"Whenever you're not around, yes." He rocked his head. "You haven't seen yourself in my eyes, darling."

"Oh?" she arched a brow, intrigued as she leaned over. "What am I in your eyes, Your Majesty?"

"Naked." His answer was quick, pulling her waist with his arm. "There wasn't a time you stood in front of me wearing something."

Aries frowned as she settled over him. "That sounds..."

"Perverted? Surprise, surprise, your lover is the biggest pervert you'll ever get to meet in your life." Contrary to his claims, the smile he flashed was pure. His arms settled around her waist, stilling her, just in case she would stand up. He didn't plan to pull out; he preferred to connect to her, literally.

"I don't mind, so long as that lust is for me." She shrugged before touching her upper breast and the markings and hickeys he left. "Back to the main topic. What are these for?"

"Protection."

She snapped her eyes at him. "From?"

"Harm?"

"Abel..." Aries sighed, knowing he was aware those weren't the answer she was seeking. "Will you keep me in the dark again? And hold back information? Am I in danger? I need to know that."

"Darling, I'm not holding back any piece of information, and yes, you are in danger." His expression was innocent, making it hard for her to believe if he was serious. "The second you lasted a day with me in Haimirich, people had already set their eyes on you."

He then raised his other hand to caress the fading paint on the side of her breast. "Therefore, I need to make sure you are protected at all times. Or at least, until I get to where you are."

"Those people... are...?"

"Vampires, Witches, Wolves..." Abel shrugged as he listed the first on his list that had been attempting to take his life. "Or what sort of scheme you could've fallen? Especially from the work of witches."

Aries furrowed her brows as she lowered her eyes. She didn't catch the glint that flickered across his eyes upon stressing the word' witches.

"So that's what they were..." she mumbled, nodding, still fascinated with all this unworldly information. "So witches and vampires are the same?"

"No, darling."

"How come you know witchcraft?"

His lips stretched. "Because I am Abel."

"Right..."

"I'm cursed," he added, watching her raise her brows. "Our blood is. Therefore, our family had been inclined to undo this curse for millennia. We learned things on the way, but never how to undo this curse."

"And what is this curse?"

"I don't know." He shrugged.

"How come you don't know?"

"Because no one knew, darling," he returned with the same tone. "But what I and everyone know is... whatever it is, it's not something to exist. Time can only tell, and we'll all figure it out, eventually."

Aries frowned, studying his eyes that were telling her it was the truth. Her brows, however, furrowed when he continued.

"Why don't you tell me, darling?" he asked out of plain curiosity. "What is the curse that is running deep in me?"

"How would I know that?" her frown deepened as the lines on her forehead grew apparent. "Who can know those things when the cursed one doesn't even know what sort of curse befell his shoulder?"

He smiled and fluttered his eyes coquettishly. "You," he leaned forward, planting a kiss on her curved lips. "You can know those things."

Abel showered her with short and soft kisses until she was not frowning anymore. Drawing his head back, he flashed her a subtle smile. He cocked his head to the side while she stared back at him in silence.

"Bothered by the curse?" he asked, and she nodded without a second hesitation.

"But that's not what I am thinking right now," she explained, knowing he wouldn't be this relaxed if this curse was that urgent. "Before I can get into that matter, there were matters I must handle in the present."

Aries drew a breath, looking at him straight in the eye. "I need your help, Abel. I don't think I can drag the crown prince down without you."

He rocked his head before the corner of his lips curled up wickedly. "I'll be happy to help, darling. Anything for you."

Her eyes glinted as she smiled, holding his dangerous gaze, and soon malice dominated her eyes.
