Mated To The Dark Lord - 30 30. The Vision

One more day.

I was getting antsy, and she was starting to realize it.

We were lying in bed ready to end the day. I was spooning her, trying to keep my feelings under control.

“Arkael?”

“I’m good Shani, it’s just that we’ve been here too long already. And I can’t wait to get back up.” I started kissing her neck, and pulling her close to me.

What if everything goes wrong tomorrow? I don’t want her to shed a tear for me. I don’t ever want her to be sad.

“No something is wrong, I could feel it.” She said looking into my eyes.

“Just the war, it’s alerted to me and with Ranulf still in recuperation I’m doubting myself. Look…why don’t…you…take my mind off of it?” I started kissing her with each pause, and kiss her deeper at the end of my explanation.

It wasn’t a total lie, there was going to be a war tomorrow. But it was all taken care of there would be nothing to worry about, maven said so. Ranulf had train the warriors up to his highest standard.

Maven said that I would get hurt, but I need to take the hit and Shani would later heal me. And the kingdom would still be saved.

And that was the first lie that I had ever given her, I know it’ll end badly if she finds out but I need to listen to Maven. I couldn’t let her find out.

“Are you sure that’s it? I’m…feeling… that there’s… something more…Arkael…” she knows that I was lying, but I kept on kissing her naked back until she finally moaned my name.

She was under me, naked in seconds. I didn’t take long for me to be in her warmth, she was looking in to my eyes. Such beautiful face, such beautiful soul. I couldn’t believe that I have her as my mate. She was also going to be my saviour.

I was kissing her while thrusting deep inside, she was sighing and moaning at the same time. My arms wrapped her body possesively, not wanting to let her go. Not even when we were both so close to our climax. She was closing her eyes telling me to go faster and deeper, until we both reached our high and sated moments later.

I was holding on to her, whispering my loving words and giving her my small feathery kisses. Until she relaxed and finally drifted off to sleep.

Next day came too soon. There were no mornings in hell, the aura just felt different when the day changes. Shani was grumbling about the clothes, which Sabina provided her.

“Shani, it has been days. You should get used to the clothes by now. I don’t hear you complaining about my clothes.”

“That’s because I like seeing you in it, and you look good bare chested. While I’m still struggling with these napkins they pass on for clothes.” she grumbled again, while I chuckled hearing her words.

“My queen…you would look beautiful in a sack, and these napkins made me fantasize about you all day until I can ravish you all night. You are sexy in these, you do know I had been banning the lower rank incubus and even succubus from the royal court right?” I said trailing my thumb to her freckles.

“You are too perfect, too beautiful my lovely queen…” I said placing my lips to her, gently.

She was opening her mouth lightly and finally let me nibble on her sexy lips, and slip my tongue inside hers and tasted her. I was feeling her desire, until there was a knock on my door and we parted our kiss breathlessly.

“Come in…” I said, still having her hand in mine.

“My king, the warriors are ready I am to prepare you for battle. My queen, Sabina will escort you to King Ranulf’s chamber. Master Rain is asking for you.” Maven came into the room carrying his potions and my armor. He had Muriel assisting him with my swords and shield.

Maven looked at me nodding his head knowing that Rain’s request for her, would keep Shani occupied for the rest of the morning. At least until I finish the battle.

Maven said that I would be wounded in the battle and I need to let it happen.

She said her goodbyes and were looking happy that she was about to see Rain. Then I was lost in my preparation for battle. The war was about to commence, our demons were ready at the gates.

I was on my way to the main hall to greet one of Ranulf’s general, when Savaric came up to me. I haven’t seen him in days, but he was looking like himself. He didn’t seem to be bothered by the hellish life.

The succubus must’ve been entertaining him.

“I see that Basilea had been treating you well. Any news you would like to give me?” I asked smirking at him. He was a bit taken back from my obviously correct accusations. But then he cleared his throat and started speaking calmly.

“Can I join the battle? Look…aside from my handsome face, I used to ranked in my kingdom, I’m also a warrior.”

Now he look really bored.

“Emphasizing on the used to…look it’ll be all man for himself here. It’s not like any battle on earth. Look, if you’re bored you can join the provision fyes. But I’m not letting you into battle, without the approval from Ranulf’s general.”

He sighed but follow me anyway. Muriel was still by my side when I instructed her to usher Savaric to the fyes who were handling the provisions.

I had been in the demon battles many times already, and was prepared for the upcoming obstacles. I know their strategies, and I know how the demon warriors do their battles.

But I was obviously not prepared seeing Savaric slipping his way through couple of hours into the battle.

What the…goddamn it! That Cupid is going to get himself killed!

Shit! Was this the time when I was about to get hit? But Maven said clearly that a demon elf was the one that was going to going hurt me.

But then the awaited hit came, it was hard on my back. Godfuckingdamnit!

I could hear my back crack as the elf trash his war hammer onto the shield that cover my back. I was slumped immediately and I was truly thought that I was going to die.

Flashes of her image runs through my mind. And I could already imagined her great sadness. I was ready to get up again when Savaric surprisingly came to my rescue. He took my sword and gracefully jab the elf’s abdomen until he staggered back, then slit his throat and let him fall to the ground.

“Shit! Come on…I got you. Let the other handle this. I’ll get back later, we need to get you back inside now.”

There were no hesitation in his words. He was carying me on his back. His breathing was shallow when he finally reached the court.

“What the FUCK! Arkael!”

I could hear Shani’s voice screamed from the far corner of the court.

“Oh boy. You are in trouble my King.” Savaric retorted when he heard my beautiful queen scream out my name. I was about to say something back but blackness suddenly came to me, and I was engulfed in it.

I’m so sorry my queen.
