Chapter 210 Osman Will Kill Us

It was currently day five of Xen’s training, and Darius was also back in his celibacy potion as he sipped his tea. His mate was still sleeping peacefully on the bed, and he didn’t have the nerve to disturb her.

[You’re Majesty, please get down here now with Princess Xenia,] Osman telepathically called to him. [Time is gold, and we can’t afford to slack off at this rate.]

[We’ll be there shortly, so stop worrying…] Darius answered with a sigh before he sipped on the last remnants of his tea.

Xen had already prepared the potion that he would just have to add to his cup, but he purposely didn’t drink it yesterday, thinking that he would have the means to control himself. But alas, what did he expect? He ended up coaxing his mate anyway and made up for all the days they didn’t have by taking her body six ways to Sunday.

Staring at her, he controlled himself to not attack and pounce at her as he waited for the potion to take effect on his body. A few moments later, Xen finally stirred in her sleep, her movements lazy as she slowly sat up. Darius smiled as he walked towards her and sat on the side of the bed. He stared at her, waiting for her eyelids to slowly open up.

“Good morning, gorgeous,” he greeted Xen with his sweetest smile.

“Morning,” she sluggishly answered, followed by a yawn as she stretched out her arms. She looked so adorable and enticing, especially knowing that she was naked beneath all those sheets currently covering her body. Good thing that the potion had already taken effect, so he was no longer distracted by his mate’s allure in the current morning.

“Get up and get ready. Osman has been calling out me too numerous times already,” Darius commented. “I already prepared your breakfast, so focus on freshening up before we meet up with the admiral.”

Xen had a pout on her face as she huffed, “But it’s so nice lazing around like this.”

Darius chuckled, and in that instant, he carried Xen up into his arms in one swift motion.

“Mhmm… I’m starting to get used to this,” Xen murmured into his chest.

“Then get used to it faster, love. It’s not like I plan on stopping to pamper you all every time we have some quality time together,” Darius said as he went down the stairs.

“I bet you already took the potion,” Xen chortled, making Darius chuckle.

“I don’t trust myself, so I had to take it while you were still sleeping,” Darius explained himself. “Today will be crucial for your training, so I have to at least not get in the way, or Osman will kill me with his nonstop serious speeches and scolding. He has a knack for words of wisdom like that…”

“I noticed,” Xen seconded with a smile. “He seems to be a good man though, so I guess it’s just his destiny to be saved by you.”

As soon as they were down and on the table, Darius didn’t let Xen move on her own as he firmly held her down and sat her on his lap. Feeding her like a baby, she blushed hard as she insisted on eating on her own. Unfortunately, he didn’t allow her to do so. He was actually enjoying it, taking care of her like this.

[Who would’ve thought that you have a sweet side on you?] his wolf Zeus teased, making Darius chuckle.

“Huh? What’s funny?” Xen inquired with knitted brows.

“Oh, nothing,” Darius scoffed. “It’s just my wolf Zeus teasing me with how sweet I’ve become towards you.”

Xen smiled at him. “Say hello to Zeus from me then. By the way, will I be able to talk to Zeus too once we complete the Mate Bond?”

,ᴄ-ᴏm “Hmm, yes. You two will be able to communicate as well, my love,” Darius answered with a grin. “Zeus is actually looking forward to it, you know.”

“Hmm, alright then. Let’s complete the Mate Bond after the wedding,” Xen suddenly stated.

[Why not after the training?] Zeus bargained.

“Zeus is asking… Well, me too… ‘Why wait for the wedding?’ in his own words,” he suggested with an eager look in his eyes. “I can always mark you as soon as you complete the training.”

Smiling, Xen cupped his face as she explained, “Let’s do it the right way with the correct procedures so that your court won’t hold anything against you on this matter. We need to honor your customs and traditions, and aren’t it preferred for royals and monarchs to complete the Mate Bond once they get married for it to be considered to bring great blessing and fortune to the kingdom? So let’s do that.”

“Alright then,” Darius relented. “As long as it would be before the trials, then I’m good with it, Xen. Now here. Eat some more.”

He then proceeded to continue feeding her. He also helped her out in cleaning herself the tub, much to her disagreement.

“This isn’t fair,” Xen complained when he started touching and rubbing her body. “Are you doing this on purpose?” she snorted with a frown.

Darius chuckled, “Are you getting aroused?”

“Of course, not!” she quickly denied. “It’s just that you’ve been touching every part of my body so slowly and… caressing it more than cleaning them…”

Darius controlled his laughter upon seeing how red she was getting.

“I’m simply admiring all the marks I put on your body, Xen, so I’m purposely doing it slowly,” Darius shamelessly teased her. “I guess it’s having an effect on your body, seeing how hard your nipples are at the moment.”

Xen couldn’t help but blush further. She was being manipulated so easily… “Just you wait… I’ll definitely get revenge on you for this,” she threatened with flaring nostrils.

“I’ll be waiting for your sweet revenge then, my love. But for now… how about I make amends on my wrongful deeds?” he seductively murmured as his hands threatened to make their way down between her thighs. He might not be able to do her with his cock, but he could still definitely pleasure her with his fingers.

“You’re so devious!” Xen murmured out in her hoarse voice as he began his onslaught. “Osman will kill us both for being so late,” she added, followed by her sweet moans as he went about his business.

Darius simply watched her reactions as he continued doing wonders to please his mate. Despite him being under the celibacy potion, he still loved how she boldly reacted to his mere touches alone.

[Your Majesty, what’s taking you so long?!] Osman telepathically called out again.

[I’m still attending to my Queen,] Darius vaguely responded. [Something urgent came up, but I’ll be done in no time. Just wait for us for a brief moment.]
