Chapter 22


    Beautiful women d in silk flowed into the room and began to move in rhythm with the music. Lucian


    watched as the curvy women in front of him swayed with their hips seductively to get the males''


    attention. Rasmus who was sitting next to him seemed to enjoy the view while sipping his wine.


    "I like that red-haired one. Which one catches your attention?" Rasmus asked.


    Lucian''s eyes swept over the women twirling around each other wearing almost nothing. Yes, they


    were beautiful, exotic, but none of them enticed him.


    "Hard to decide? You can take two if you want." Rasmus said in amusement when Lucian didn''t reply.

    Maybe he should. It has been a long time since he took a woman to bed, and that might be the reason


    his demon was out of control. Taking a woman might calm his demon down a bit so that he could finally


    be with Hazel.


    "I''ll take the blonde" Lucian finally decided. Rasmus gave him a knowing smile.

    Looking out the window, I watched as the clear blue summer sky transformed into a sea of ckness.


    The sun got swallowed by the rapidly falling night and the sky got freckled by shimmering stars. It was


    a beautiful sight.


    "My Lady, dinner is served downstairs."A maid informed who had just walked in. Finally, I could meet


    Lucian after not having seen him for the whole day. As I made my way to the dining room, my heart


    pounded in my chest with anticipation. Images of our kiss fromst night reyed in my head and I had


    a feeling that more would happen tonight, but to my disappointment the room was empty as I entered.


    There was no sign of Lucian.


    "Mydy?" Looking over my shoulder, one of Lucian''s guards was standing there.


    "His Highness told me to inform you he cannot join you for dinner tonight," he said.


    "Why? did something happen?" I asked, concerned. These days I always felt anxious, waiting for


    something bad to happen.


    "No, My Lady. He is attending a party the king threw for men only?"


    "Oh.." was the only thing I managed to say. Party for men only didn''t sound good. The king of Gatrish is


    known for his parties that include exotic women, sex and liquor. And knowing that Lucian was there


    made me feel uneasy.


    I sat at therge table and tried to enjoy the food and not think about anything else when Astrid and


    ra strode into the room.


    "We heard that you are dining alone, so we came to apany you, if that''s all right?." Astrid inquired.


    "Of course" I smiled.


    Once they sat down the maids served them dinner as well.


    "I hope you are enjoying your stay here even though a lot is going on in your kingdom," Astrid said.


    "I am, thank you." I lied. I was hardly enjoying myself, especially with her sister having an interest in my


    husband. "I heard the king is throwing a party. What is the special asion?" I asked, trying to get


    some information.


    "Nothing actually. My brother just enjoys his parties and women."


    "Yeah, if there is one thing a man can''t resist is, it''s the body of a beautiful woman," ra spoke for the


    first time since she came here.


    I had a feeling she was telling me something. It didn''t matter. Lucian wouldn''t take another woman,


    would he? If he had done it before he certainly would now.


    My stomach churned, and I lost my appetite.


    "Thank you for keeping mepany. Have a good night." I said standing up from my seat once they


    were done eating.


    As I headed back to my room, my thoughts drifted back to Lucian. I was both anxious and curious to


    what he was doing. I knew I wouldn''t be able to fall asleep, so I decided to take a walk around the


    castle when I heard giggling soundsing from around the corner.


    Looking around the corner, I found a group of maids standing on stools looking through a window. They


    were so upied that they didn''t even notice me approaching them. Curious to what made them so


    engrossed, I stood on an empty stool beside them and peeked through the small window.


    The first thing I noticed was the women dancing around each other in circles wearing clothes that cover


    nothing but their private parts. They were swaying with their hips and twisting seductively with their


    bodies to some music that I couldn''t hear.


    "Oh... they are so beautiful." A maid spoke while never taking her eyes off the dancing women.


    My eyes traveled to the back of the room where a group of men were sitting watching the dancers. I


    recognized the King, who was sitting in the middle with a ss of wine in his hand. He had a smirk on


    his face and was speaking to someone sitting next to him. Lucian!


    Lucian nodded and watched the dancers intently. His gaze was dark and held an emotion I couldn''t


    identify. Now some men were leading a few dancers out of the room.


    "Wow.. did you see the woman general Richard chose?" A maid gasped.


    "I wonder which one the King will choose," another one said.


    "And who is the handsome man sitting next to the King?"


    The King stood up from his seat and led a red-haired dancer out of the room, which made a few maid''s


    gasp.


    "Oh... he is the prince of Decresh, it is said he is the son of the devil," an old maid said sounding


    disgusted.


    "The devil must be extremely handsome then."


    Yeah, Lucian looked extremely handsome sitting there staring at the dancer. I didn''t like the way he


    was looking at them. I didn''t like that he was looking at them at all, but that wasn''t the worst that could


    happen, because he was now leading a blonde dancer out of the room.
