The Crown’s Entrapment

32 The Mud off Her Clothes



Darius woke up to the sensation of a warm body pressed up against his. Slowly opening his eyes, Darius withheld a smile as he saw Xen’s beautiful face. Even if he expected it, the sight of it still affected him in some way.

From the way he was sleeping so peacefully to the way he looked so tamed, he couldn’t help but stare at his every feature. Even now, Xen’s face screamed nothing but femininity.

“You’re just too beautiful to be a man, Xen,” he adoringly whispered.

Already, he could feel a familiar heat pooling inside his body. He was burning with an unstoppable desire now, and he wanted to do nothing but to just stare at this man’s alluring beauty as he slept.

Blinking, Darius gulped as his eyes trained themselves on Xen’s lips… Those soft and supple lips… they were just calling to him at this point.

With a groan, he fought the urge to capture those lips with his own, but the call was too great for him to ignore. Moving his hand up, the King gently touched those kissable lips with his thumb, feeling their softness as he slowly let the urge get to him.

“I want to taste them,” Darius hoarsely murmured.

Leaning down, Darius lightly brushed his lips on Xen’s without even realizing it. Immediately, he groaned at the pleasure of kissing him. He licked and suckled on Xen’s lips, but it still wasn’t enough.

Greedily, he slid his tongue inside and explored more of what Xen had to offer. Soon enough, even his idle hands started moving. And it was then that another growl came out…one out of pure annoyance, and it wasn’t his, but from Zeus!

[Pervert! Wake up from your hallucinations! The sun’s up already!] Zeus complained in his head. [Ah, damn that poison! I feel like my head’s about to burst just from detoxing it!]

Alarmed, Darius slowly opened his eyes, only to frown in disappointment when he saw that he was actually alone in the cave. Was it just a dream then?

[Hahaha! If I hadn’t woken you up, I’m sure you would’ve probably already wet yourself by just thinking about Xen!] Zeus teased.

“Then why bother waking me up?!” Darius furiously asked. “I’d rather have that wet dream continue than to talk to you!”

Getting up, he still felt a bit dizzy. However, his body was already feeling good.

He supposed it was only a good thing that his body was not that fragile when put up against different kinds of poisons. They could still affect him, of course. And while they could still weaken him for some time, his resistances could take care of the most deadly poisons. Even now as he looked at his wounds, they were already all healed up as expected.

Satisfied with his current state, the King walked out of the cave and saw that the sun was already up.

In his mind, he still couldn’t believe that he was even having wet dreams of his servant in the first place. Truly, the effect Xen was having on him was getting far too complicated for his own poor rationality. He wasn’t like this at all, and he wondered if he would ever get used to living with this kind of emotion.

“Where the hell is he?” Darius growled in a low tone, followed by him flashing his dimmest expression that even the sun itself had trouble lighting up his gloomy face.

“Did he just leave me here and run away?”

Meanwhile, Xenia was already out in the forest, having finally managed to get out of the cave as soon as the binding spell she applied on herself had expired. Of course, the first thing she did was hunt for food.

She knew full well how Darius preferred to eat meat rather than fruits or veggies, and putting food on the table was the last thing she could do for the man. After all, he saved her life once more by protecting her yesterday.

Making her way through the path, she managed to hunt for some rabbits and was about to head back when saw a waterfall with a clear pool of water beneath it.

“Hmm… I’m tempted to have a dip…” Xenia pondered as she looked down at her own muddy clothes. She had gotten dirty after she tripped on the mud while hunting. And while she could always clean up inside the cave, it would be awkward to do so in front of the King.

Quickly looking around, Xenia deliberated for all but a few seconds before deciding that it was safe. Quickly undressing, she left nothing on as she headed straight for the water and washed the mud off her clothes.

After making sure that she had carefully hung her clothes out on a tree branch to dry, she then walked to the pool itself to clean her body and scrub herself in a hurry. As she let the waters wash through her, she sighed as she relished the feeling of being clean.

The water felt so good and relaxing, and she was so glad that her chest finally had the opportunity to breathe properly without the bindings making her chest look flat.

Looking at the sun, she knew she should hurry up since the King was bound to wake up soon. Knowing him, she would have to prepare his meals before he threw another tantrum.

Focusing on her own body, she had just finished washing her hair and was about to get out of the water when she suddenly heard something nearby.

Immediately, Xenia’s eyes widened, and she quickly dipped her body down onto the water.

“Who’s there!?”

She yelled out, but there was no response. It was only after a few seconds that Xenia saw a deer walking in the distance that she let herself breathe out a sigh of relief.

“Ah, just a deer,” she murmured.

Not letting herself get caught off guard again, she hastily moved out of the water and quickly got dressed. She then picked up her things and proceeded to make her way back to the cave which was not that far from her location.

As soon as she reached her destination, she immediately looked for her companion… Only to realize that the king was no longer where she had left him.
