Kaelvryn was in a heat of rage, he couldn't blow off steam, couldn't do anything, his mind was completely filled with images of Valen.
He wanted to know if she was okay but at the same time he wanted to be cautious without raising any form of suspicion.
He wasn't sure what was wrong with him but he knew that he wasn't okay himself.
Kaelvryn went to his bath chamber, his tub filled with water and rose petals, after removing his robes, he dipped himself slowly into the water, the warm water sipping into his body calming his nerves.
"Ah..." he let out a soft moan, he wondered how Valen would sound if he ever touched her.
"Kaelvryn get a grip of yourself..." he muttered under his breath bit it was already too late, his mind kept trailing to Valen.
Slowly his hand trailed his penis, he stroked himself slowly, "Valen..." he whispered, the word felt so deadly and he felt like he was committing a sin but this was a deadly sin he would want to fall into.
The more he stroked his penis, the more his thoughts went wild, he thought of his lips on her soft neck, the sound that would escape his lips if he ever handled her.
"Oh good...hea...Valen," he kept stroking harder, his hands went to the side of his wooden tub, gripping with full force while he threw his head behind and finally he came inside the water.
The realization swept him like a storm, "what have I done?" He muttered quietly under his
breath.
*Back at Valen's chambers*
Georgia kept cleaning Valen, "your fever really took a spike, how did this happen?"
Valen chuckled softly, "let me tell you a secret,"
Georgia hit her softly, "this is not the time for jokes."
"Ouch..." Georgia reached out to her but when she noticed the funny smile on Valen face, she hit her again, softer this time.
"Do you not want to know the reason why the fever spiked up harder this time?" Valen had a weak smile on her face.
"Go on..."
"It's actually because of my shifting, whenever I shift into my wolf form, I tend to get very weak easily after changing back into my human form. I may be very strong in both forms but the huge toll it takes on me can be very insane,"
"That must be hard for you... I'm sorry," Georgia said calmly while mixing the herbs.
"Oh don't be, my father used to tell me that I have a rare blood that whenever I tend to shift without caution since I can't control it, I get really weak and tired, so I guess since I haven't recovered properly that's why the fever spiked high."
Georgia face went dull and Valen couldn't understand why, "oh please brighten up, it's not your fault."
"I know....it's just..."
"Georgia look at me," Valen said softly but Georgis still refused to look at her.
"I said, look at me..." Georgia finally turned to face her, her eyes were filled with tears.
"Oh goodness gracious, why are you tearing up? I'm the one that's weak, it isn't your fault...please stop crying."
Georgia smiled weakly, "why are you so nice to me?"
The question caught Valen off guard, she didn't know why but she genuinely liked Georgia, bit as a friend but how would she tell that to her without breaking her heart.
"It's because you're a good person and Im lucky to have you as a friend," Georgia's face immediately twisted but she still managed to put up a small smile on her face.
"Friend?"
Valen nodded, "yes friend, I usually have a hard time making friends and I'm glad to have met you."
Georgia let out chuckle, "let me quickly pour hot water into this so you can drink and have some rest."
Valen nodded and Georgia went her way, Valen couldn't help but let out a tired sigh, Georgia was developing feelings for the man she thought Valen was, and she couldn't stop her.
Georgia returned with the tonic in her hands, "here..." she handed it over and Valen drank it, relief washing over and also sleep slowly crawling in.
"I think you should go now, I'm feeling a bit drowsy," Valen said softly and Georgia nodded,
the moment her head rested on the pillows, she drifted to the dream world.
*Back at King's Kaelvryn chambers*
Kaelvryn couldn't take it anymore, he wanted to see Valen, after wearing his satin robes, he marched to Valen's chambers, there he caught a sight of Georgia about pecking Valen's lips.
He barged in and Georgia got startled with Valen immediately waking up, her eyes blinking hard.
"What's going on here?" Valen asked, her voice soft filled with confusion.
Kaelvryn stared right into Georgia's eyes, "Leave...at once."
Georgia nodded her head amd dashed out from the room, "your Majesty, what seems to be the
problem? You don't look okay."
Kaelvryn looked at Valen but the scene from earlier eroded his mind, he shouldn't have done that, now how can he face him.
"I'm fine."
Valen stared at him, confusion written all over her face, she was meant to believe him but for she knew that something was definitely off.
"Alright, if you say so," she couldn't go back to sleep, she was tired as hell and needed all the rest she could get but with the King in her room, she couldn't.
"You can sleep, I just wanted to check up on you..." Kaelvryn finally spoke up.
Valen was a bit confused but said nothing, "alright your Majesty."
She rested her head back on the pillows and quickly she drifted to sleep. Kaelvryn scoffed a bit at the sight, with his lips tugging to a smile.
His eyes darted quickly to door, it was closed, then he settled close to Valen, he reached out to touch his face but he hanged mid air.
After contemplating for a while, he reached for her face trailing her facial features properly, "I never knew how beautiful you looked until now," he muttered gently.
His fingers stopped at the tip of her lips, he gently reached for a kiss but stopped himself immediately, "I shouldn't do this..." he stood up and went away, his heart beating crazily against his chest.
Valen slowly opened her eyes, her heart beating hard, she placed her hand on her beating chest,
"first...Georgia and now the King, how would they feel if they found out I'm a woman."
Now she was completely restless and couldn't even get a shut eye properly.
"What do I do now?"
