Keial was back, and by the look on his face, we were not at war with the woodland elves.

I was standing next to all the other servants, and watching as he came through the doors, and as I stood there alongside the others, I couldn't help but feel a deep hatred for how I felt about Keial.

I liked him, and seeing him just now, after a week of being apart, I hated myself for it.

I had gotten too attached to the very person I should stay away from, and I swore to myself when I agreed to his crazy scheme that once this was over, I would go and live my life as quietly as possible.

I noticed Zeri and Gregor walk over to him, but to my surprise, Keial only paid attention to Greogr and Zeri kept her head down, which was hard to look at, given now that I know they are family.

What a strange family, but a family nonetheless.

"Beauty, huh?" Ash whispered next to me, as I noticed he was also looking at Zeri.

"To think that Commander Gregor landed a woman such as her, how he did it will always escape me."

I nodded my head, completely agreeing with him, Zeri was a good woman, so good that she wanted to be friends with someone as lowly as me.

"Eyes forward!" Ash quickly whispered as I noticed Keial come our way from the corner of my eye.

I knew he was coming over to me, and that I should be used to this by now, but we were in front of everyone I worked alongside, and even though they knew we were.... together, it still embarrassed me to no end when he showed affection in public.

"Felix." Keial looked down at me, not paying any attention to anyone else near me, or in the room.

His golden, beautiful yet intimidating eyes told me to follow him, as he turned around and walked away, the same direction Zeri, and Gregor were heading, down a long wide stretched hall where I knew the tea room was.

I felt all eyes on me as I followed behind Keial like I was his puppy, not his 'lover', and as humiliated as I felt, despite being happy to see him, I couldn't help but play those words he said over in my head.

This was going to be over soon, and soon enough, I won't be able to see him again.

Keial will get married, and have tiny princes and princesses, I won't lower my self-worth to be his 'mistress' just so he can have both worlds, I won't go that far.

I'm already-

"Felix?" His deep voice tickled my ear, making me snap out of my thoughts and at Keial.

His face was inches from mine as he slowly stood up straight, his studious eyes watching me, trying to figure me out as he stared at me.

"Do I not get a welcome-back kiss?" He then said with a playful frown, as I blinked and stared back at him shocked.

Was he being serious, or was he messing with me again?

"I, uh, I don't know?" I stuttered, watching as Keial's mouth slowly shifted into a smile.

"I'm joking, Felix." He said, before turning to the door where Gregor, and his sister had entered before us.

"I hope everything went smoothly while I was gone?" He asked, his deep voice softening as his eyes bore into mine, making my heart skip a beat.

Get a hold of yourself, Felix!

"Yeah... uh, things were good, nothing happened." Why was he asking that, he had never asked that before.

"Um, how was... your thing?" I asked, regretting it the moment it left my mouth.

It was none of my business, but then why did I always have to open my mouth and make it my business? Stupid, stupid!

"It went as well as you could imagine such things to go." He subtly said, as his large rough hand reached out to touch mine, before closing the distance between us, his lips hovering above my ear.

"I thought of nothing but you the entire time, it became unbearable, look for yourself." He whispered huskily, as he moved my hand over his bulge.

"S-Stop!" I looked around nervously, to see if anyone could see us.

What was he doing? 

Had he finally lost his mind? 

"H-How can you say that without being-" I stopped myself, and groaned as I felt my face grow hot.

"I wanted you to meet someone, but seeing you now, I only want you on my bed, with your legs spread and your ass in my face." Keial licked my ear, setting my whole body on fire as I closed my eyes.

Keial was acting different with me today, I didn't know why, but I didn't hate it.

it felt... nice, almost like he did miss me, if he didn't then why would he be this hard and flirtatious in front of me?

"What do you say, Felix?" His voice made me lose my mind as he pressed himself into my hand, and made me grab his large length over his trousers.

"Did you miss me too?"

Why did it have to be like this... Keial didn't know, but he was making it harder and harder for me to leave him without being in pieces.

Yet right now... I could only think about one thing, and one thing only.

*****

His hot breath mixed with mine as our naked bodies glued to each other on his wide and spacious bed, my need for him the only thing keeping my mind sharp.

"Fuck." He hissed, as he pushed his cock deeper inside of me, making my toes curl.

If there was a goddess, she might see me soon as I might actually die from pleasure, the same pleasure only Keial could give me, the very pleasure I was getting addicted to.

He was the size of my wrist, and the biggest I had seen on a man, yet the pain was nothing compared to what I felt in my heart when I looked at him, through tear-soaked eyes.

I wanted to tell him right there how I felt, that I did miss him and that I wished I had never met him, but instead, I wrapped my arms around his neck and held him close, as his hips kept a steady pace.

"You feel that?" Keial's husky deep voice tickled my ear, as he pushed his length to a deep spot inside of me that made me moan out in pleasure every time.

"No one will ever give you this but me, only I can touch you here." 

Keial was possessive, and dominating, and licking me everywhere his mouth could reach without breaking the pace of his hips roughly thrusting inside of me, ruining me.

I was sure no other man could satisfy me after Keial, and he knew that there was no way I'd be able to replace this feeling with someone else.

Despite how incredible I felt, I also couldn't ignore how I felt, which was now crashing down on me in waves, as I looked at Keial once he moved his face away from my neck, to look down at me.

His handsome face... damn it, why did I have to fall for him?

"Why are you crying?"

I blinked and saw that he was right, I was crying, which only made me feel more lame for crying in front of him like this, during sex.

"S-Sorry." I go to wipe my eyes, but Keial stops moving his hips and then grabs hold of my arms to pin above my head.

"What are you thinking about?" He asked me, his eyes now intimidatingly looking into mine.

"Did I hurt you?" He asked, which only made the tears come out of my eyes more.

Why was this happening?

"Felix..."

"I... I just need a moment." I turned my face, and clenched my eyes shut as I heard Keial sigh, then slowly remove his length from inside of me.

I couldn't do this anymore, this whole week I had been a mess, and while trying desperately to put an end to how I felt about this man, this dangerous man, I only sank lower into despair that one day, this would be all over.

"I have good news." Keial started to say, as I opened my eyes slowly to see that he had gotten off the bed, and had grabbed a robe to put over him.

Good... news?

He wasn't facing me, but I could feel the sudden shift in the room, and whatever this news was, wasn't good news to him, Keial looked almost distant as he slowly turned around to look at me.

"This arrangement is over, your name is cleared and you no longer bear the title traitor and rogue, you are free to leave this place if that is what you wish."
