Conquering the Emperor - Chapter 108

“No…” I replied softly. Frankly, I wasn’t that interested either.

“Practically, it’s a very effective way to show that you belong to him. However, it is also a way to show you his commitment to take care of you as a man would take care of his wife…” Auntie said, stressing on every word to make sure that I understood what she was saying.

It wasn’t like I didn’t want to believe her, but Ren’s cold attitude did not match with what this dress was supposed to symbolize at all. What is he really thinking? Why would he want me to wear this when I appear in court later today?

A feeling of uneasiness filled me up inside and I couldn’t explain why.

…

**Days Before **

It was a moonless night with thick clouds in the sky, making the night darker than most nights. The inner court was silent because everyone had headed to bed. Jeely sat in front of her vanity mirror combing her lush long hair as she admired her own facial features in the mirror. The thin light blue silk robe of her nightgown did nothing to hide the beautiful curves of her body.

Jeely had been in a bad mood lately and it was all because of the girl she was tasked to teach and train. She sighed loudly as her thoughts returned to the day when she made up her mind that something had to be done about this matter. It was the day that the crown prince had turned up along with Rin to observe her lessons.

After the crown prince ordered for her to leave the room so that he could spend time in private with Rin, Jeely let out a huge sigh that she has been suppressing once she had slid the door closed behind her. She couldn’t believe that she had been in the same room as the crown prince and that he actually spoke to her. It was rare that the crown prince would enter the inner court, so she never expected to see him here.

However, the worst part was that the crown prince wasn’t here to see her. Without noticing it at first, Jeely’s fists were balled tightly as she felt her anger take over. Why was the crown prince so obsessed with the new concubine, she just couldn’t understand.

Rin’s manners were horrible. Her looks and body were standard and there was nothing outstanding about her skills in the art. She was uneducated about history and literature. Overall, there was nothing impressive about her…and yet, Rin has clearly captured the crown prince’s interest and attention. Something that Jeely had failed to do in her 15 years of living in the crown prince’s inner court.

“Lady Jeely, you are back quite early today,” one of the maids greeted Jeely when she arrived back to her living quarters.

“Leave!” Jeely spat, her face grim.

The maid’s eyes widened in shock at Jeely’s furious expression. She has never seen Lady Jeely this way before. Jeely was always smiley and polite to everyone, even the maids. She was the image of perfect and everyone looked up to her.

“Yes, My Lady,” the maid said before bowing respectfully and then she was gone.

Jeely sat down at the round table as her mood continued to darken. Her brain began thinking non-stop about how to rectify the situation. Getting rid of Rin and removing her from the crown prince’s favor needed to happen and fast.

Suddenly, there was a loud crashing sound. Jeely had pushed the teapot and teacup off the table in her rage and frustration. The teapot and the teacup fell on the floor and broke into countless pieces. From that day, she had been formulating her plan carefully and have put it swiftly into motion.

A sound of a few taps on her door brought Jeely back from her memories of that day and back to the present. When Jeely heard the tapping sound against her door, her lips immediately curved into a small, knowing smile. As if expecting a visitor, she immediately made her way to the door of her room. The secret tapping sequence made her certain of the identity of her visitor.

Jeely opened the door to allow her visitor inside of her bedroom without hesitation. Silently and as discreetly as possible, her visitor slipped inside of her room before Jeely looked around to ensure that no one was watching. Then she closed and bolted the door firmly behind her.

She turned around to greet her visitor who had seated himself on one of wooden sofa, making himself feel at home. Her visitor smiled at her and she smiled back.

“You’re one shameless man, Prince Kin, sneaking into your brother’s inner court like this…” Jeely purred seductively.

Her body swayed temptingly as she walked towards where Prince Kin was seated. Her eyes meeting his and holding them.

“They say shameless men belong with shameless women; wouldn’t you agree?” Prince Kin replied with a cunning smile.

Prince Kin’s hands slowly slid in between the opening of Jeely’s night gown, tracing the smooth and bare skin of the side of her hips.

“Always so impatient…” Jeely teased.

“Sit down,” Prince Kin instructed as he pulled Jeely firmly onto his lap.

Jeely moaned a little as Prince Kin positioned her body on top of his lap with her back against his chest. A soft moan escaped her perfectly shaped lips as she leaned back and ached for neck to the side, urging Prince Kin to kiss and suck on her sensitive skin.

“You smell wonderful…” Prince Kin commented, clearly pleased.

Jeely smiled in response before letting out a satisfied sigh when Prince Kin’s hands began cupping and fondling her shapely breasts. The thin silk fabric of her nightgown did nothing to hide the swell of her chest and the outlines of her hardened nipples.

“Prince Kin…” Jeely called his name seductively.

Arching her back, she began thrusting her womanly assets invitingly into his hands. His hands stroked and massaged her tits harder and faster, making her cry out at the pleasurable sensation.
