The Bride of The Hexodar Kingdom

The two of them, Prince Aerus and Lia, then embraced, amidst the explosion of various turmoils that had dissipated and then dimmed.  In the beginning, Prince Aerus had insisted on doing nothing further than a warm-up, but he violated his own will.

He gently caressed Lia's head, and then buried her deep in his arms, as if he didn't want to lose her, especially when his mind drifted and remembered how much Lia was crazy about Neil.

His heart had exploded, dealing with the jealousy he had always directed at Neil.  Prince Aerus always wondered to himself what Neil was like, how handsome he was, how rich he was, and how much royal blood he had in his body.

Prince Aerus had never had such a big competition in his life.  He was the only child of the King and Queen of the Hexodar kingdom, the largest kingdom in Hexa.  By not having a brother or sister then he never felt any competition over even the slightest thing.

He didn't know how annoying it was when someone could implicitly usurp his position, putting him in danger of many things.  And now he felt it, very deeply.  It made him anxious, made him shiver a little, and became unruly.

"Let's do it again," said Prince Aerus to Lia, who was now drooping and was taking a deep breath from exhaustion.  He was not sensitive enough to Lia's condition.  He only focused on his feelings of restlessness, anxiety, and being haunted by various things.  For him he just wanted to dominate Lia, then make her surrender under him, and then fall in love with him.

'Doesn't she feel the relief I feel?  Did she not feel the greatness as well as the enormity of her body-shaking explosion?  Was she like a cripple who couldn't feel anything?  But she kept moaning in the midst of all this.  But why does she keep rejecting me?' The emotional turmoil struck Prince Aerus again, forcing him to question how great he was in bed.

Then a second later he thought of something he had never thought of.  'Has Lia ever made love to Neil?  Am I not the first?  Then, is Neil still better than me?  That's why Lia always rejects me because I'm not good enough for her?  Because I can't please her enough?'

All these thoughts messed with him, screwed up his self-esteem, and also messed with his self-confidence.  And that made him want to push Lia even harder so that she instinctively chose Prince Aerus over anyone else.  Prince Aerus didn't want to lose anyone in his life.  Lia was only his, therefore she could only see him, could only think about him, and could only feel his touch.

Prince Aerus made a gentle move again, although it seemed fragile and also trembling.  Amid that Lia refused again.

"Enough!  I said enough!"  Lia screamed.  She pushed Prince Aerus' body, straightened all her clothes including putting her pants back on.  She couldn't put up with all of this, even though Prince Aerus was harassing her at work!  That's crazy!

"I don't want to do it again.  Can't you just let me go?"  Lia gasped and started crying.  Her face was dripping with tears, wetting her cheeks that were already sticky from the tears that didn't stop flowing.

Her weak and trembling legs now led her to go and escape before Prince Aerus, sneaking through the tool room door.  Her body was completely shaken by self-loathing.

Prince Aerus had a frozen time when he touched Lia, he had made time on earth completely stop.  Then when he saw Lia leaving him, Prince Aerus activated the time on earth to tick as usual.

He wanted to catch Lia, drag her, and then he wanted to force her to do everything again.  But a second later Prince Aerus was stunned, especially when he now realized how much Lia looked at him with hatred, so different from the night before when Lia looked at him as Neil.

Warmth and love were radiating in Lia's eyes, which sparkled gently and felt completely surrendered.  Prince Aerus had seen everything, had seen the contrast in Lia's eyes when she saw him as who he was.

It broke Prince Aerus's heart, and he felt both weak and defeated.

…

After Prince Aerus harassed her in the utensil storage room, Lia had gone and 'evacuated' in the cooking room, where Doni was working.  She did not know that Prince Aerus had stopped time at that time so that they would not be interrupted by anyone.

Don't think Prince Aerus is unprepared.  He had a lot of preparation, he just wouldn't tell Lia that, wouldn't tell Lia the slightest bit of information about what he was doing and what he was planning.  Because he still wanted Lia to submit in front of him, and give herself completely.

Doni frowned because he saw Lia passing by around him.  At first, he didn't want to interfere but in the end, he couldn't stop himself from asking, "Lia, what exactly are you doing?  Is there a problem in the tool storage room that you have to be here for quite a while?

"Do not take it wrong.  I don't mean to kick you out, but you could get in trouble.  You get what I mean right?"  Doni's gentle gaze made Lia feel uncomfortable.  Lia knew that she was bothering Doni, limiting his movement space in the kitchen.

However, Lia was unlikely to return to the tool storage room anytime soon, at least after she was sure that Prince Aerus was gone.

Lia squeezed her fingers, then she said in a shivering voice, "I… I don't feel safe in the tool storage room."

Doni gasped in surprise.  His face paled, and his girly side suddenly appeared again.  "You.. what?  Lia, don't scare me!"  Doni snuggled close to Lia's body, leaving the frying pan after he managed to turn off the stove in front of him.  He retreated with a swift motion, then he slipped behind Lia's thin and weak body.

"I… I will hit you if you lie."  Doni stammered back, his hands crawling, trying to find the cellphone in his pants pocket.
