Bobbing his head, Desmond tilted his head to the side and clicked his tongue. “So... what’s going to happen once we win?”
Ryu stared down at the map. “What do you mean?”
“Say we fight the Plumus and save the day. What happens then? Do we go back to hiding? Does the princess get to go home? Or do we all just pretend like none of this ever happened?”
The more questions Desmond asked, the more Ryu’s chest tightened, a low growl building up in it.
The very thought of sending the princess away. Of pretending like none of this happened. Ryu couldn’t even process it. The only thing for certain Ryu knew was that he wanted the princess. In his bed, beneath him, on top of him, against the wall, in the bath... wherever he could get her. He had not had his fill of her yet and until that was done he would not let her go.
“Ryu?” Desmond prodded, his gaze on him.
“We will figure it out when the time comes,” Ryu grunted in answer. He shifted away from the map and stalked toward the door.
Desmond called after him, “Where are you going?”
Ryu didn’t bother to answer his brother. His mind firmly set on finding the princess who had brought all this destruction to his doorstep and turmoil in his body and mind. It was time she started fulfilling her part of this bargain. Beginning with that sharp mouth of hers wrapped around his cock.
Chapter 3
Leaning back againstthe side of the hot springs, I groaned.
Oh by the gods, my body hasn’t ached like this since... my face heated thinking of the way the drake king had thoroughly fucked not just my pussy but my ass as well. It wasn’t as if I’d never had a cock there... however, at the same time? I hadn’t even realized such a thing was possible or done until Ryu had done it and I was dying to do it again.
If only I could push down my pride enough to face him. We’d fucked quiet savagely in the clearing before the guards from my kingdom interrupted us. After that, we’d been silent on our way back inside. Ryu had left me at his bedroom door and went off to do... whatever he did to plan a war.
I sat around, waiting for him to come back. When he didn’t, I ventured off to find Aryn and explained what had happened. I had hoped when Ryu came to bed that night he would pick up where we left off, or at least, make some kind of move that he wanted me again. Unfortunately, I fell asleep before he came back and then he was gone when I woke up. The only reason I knew he’d been there at all was the hot spot on the bed beside me.
The water shifted around me. I didn’t open my eyes, expecting it to be Beautine. She’d trained me until I dropped and then some. Now I wished I’d taken up sword fighting lessons as a girl when my father offered it to me. Back then I was too into parties and pretty things like my mother. Now, it was biting me in the ass.
Wanting to know if Beautine had any remedies to help sore muscles, I slit my eyes open slightly. Only to find the drake king lounging against the other side, his hot gaze boring into my exposed flesh. My eyes widened, and I ducked further into the water until only my head was visible.
Ryu’s lips ticked up.Shy now, pet?
I scowled at him.Don’t call me that.
Snaking through the water, Ryu stopped inches from me, not touching me but I could feel the heat coming off of him even through the warm water.Then what should I call you? Love? Little one? Mine?
