Chapter 143: Miss me the entire time

Alora woke up with a low groan. She felt a soft arm under her head and turned her head to check. It was Magnus, sleeping peacefully beside her. The memories from the last night flooded her mind and a smile appeared on her lips.

The previous night was more pleasurable for her than her previous times with him. Or should say every time it was a new experience with him? She moved her index finger to his forehead to brush away the disheveled hair from covering his forehead completely.

The moment the tip of her finger made contact with his skin, he jolted awake from his sleep. "I didn’t wish to wake you up," Alora promptly said as she curled her finger back.

Magnus planted a soft kiss in the center of her forehead. "Good morning, Love," he whispered, peering into her eyes.

"Good morning." She greeted him back and downcasted her gaze, a faint smile gracing her lips.

Magnus sat up on the mattress, making Alora propped up on her elbows. She kept hold of the blanket as she covered her body with it. "You can rest more. I exhausted you," he said as he put on his robes after getting down from the bed.

"But I don’t wish to rest. I would like to have a bath," Alora replied.

"With me?" Magnus arched his eyebrow.

"No," Alora refused.

"Why? Are you shy of your husband now? I can give you a better bath," Magnus said as he came to her side and leaned down. Holding her chin and brushing his thumb across her lips, he whispered, "You’ll enjoy it."

"You’ve to go to the council meeting today. I don’t wish to make you late because of me," Alora said. He let go of her chin, straightened up, and left.

As soon as the prince left, Selvina walked in to greet her. She provided Alora with a robe. She wore it and cinched its knot around her belly. "The bathhouse is ready for Her Highness. She can first use the washroom," Selvina humbly said.

"Hmm." Alora left the chamber while a few servants walked in to clean it.

Alora after having a bath, felt fresh and joyful. Sitting in front of the dressing table, she let Selvina comb her hair. She got ready soon and wore the gown, which Elliot gifted her.

"Your Highness, this dress perfectly fits you," Selvina complimented her looks.

"I also need to send a few gifts for all of them. Help me selecting them today after breakfast," Alora opined. It would be her first time sending presents to all of them and she was excited about it.

"Your Highness, Sir Tobias gave this to me earlier. He asked me to give you this letter," Selvina informed her, and she took it out of her dress’s pocket.

Alora took the letter from her. Although she was not fluent in reading, she could understand words. Unfolding the paper, Alora read the message written inside it.

The letter was from Zinnia and it was a thank you message with gratitude.

"Respected Princess Alora,

Thank you for releasing me from the prison. I again apologize to you for what I was going to do. I will use this chance well. In the future, if you ever need me, you can call me up. I’ll always be there in service of you.

Zinnia."

Alora took at least two minutes to read the letter and a smile carved on her lips. Her heart swelled in pride as she felt she even turned a werewolf her well-wisher.

"What does it say, Your Highness?" Selvina noticed her smile in the mirror.

"Zinnia has started her life afresh," Alora replied and rested the letter on the dressing table.

"That’s good," Selvina said, and she resumed her work.

After Alora was fully ready, she came to the dining room, where Magnus was already present, and enjoyed his usual drink. She sat on the seat closest to him, and the servant served her the food.

"Is that what Elliot gifted you, including the earrings?" Magnus queried, setting the cup on the table.

"Yes. Isn’t all this pretty?" Alora asked with her shining eyes.

"They are," Magnus answered, taking the knife and fork from her. He moved the plate toward him and cut the steaks for her. "Now, you should eat," he said, handing her the fork. He placed the knife on the table at its designated place and watched Alora eat her meals.

After she finished eating, Alora dabbed the napkin across her lips and rested it beside the plate. "I’m done. The food was delicious," she admitted and sipped the water.

Magnus had also finished the drink and told Alora he didn’t know when he would return. "The council meeting usually takes an hour to several hours," he asserted.

"No worries, Prince Magnus. I’ll not miss you," Alora said, smiling at him.

"You should miss me," Magnus stated and the two left their seats.

"The meeting is in the palace, so there’s no reason to miss Prince Magnus," Alora teased, making her way out of the dining room.

"Then, should I make you miss me?" Magnus blocked her way while arching his eyebrow at her.

"Um... How?" She was curious to know.

He ducked his head in the crook of her neck, kissing her on her exposed neck. And he showered multiple kisses there. Before she would step back, his arm was quick to hold her by her waist to draw her nearer.

"Like... this," Magnus whispered, nipping her sweet, sensitive spot.

Alora’s lips purred and she let out an eliciting moan in the presence of servants in their vicinity. She felt dizzy under his gentle ministrations when he suddenly withdrew.

"Now, you’ve to miss me the entire time," Magnus remarked with a grin across his lips. "You need to look at yourself in the mirror," he added.

Before she could answer him, he disappeared from her sight. Alora’s heart raced wildly against her chest and she ended up blushing while smiling.
