59 King Without Kingdom (1/2)

\”What's going on there?\”

\”Who's screaming?\”

The castle area is one of the highest parts of the mountain, so it was not a very busy place. Still, people were walking around, going to, and from the castle.

The guard continued to scream while Lucien stomped on him, so obviously, it caught the attention of many people, who started watching Lucien and his group humiliating the royal guards.

\”But what the hell is going on out there?!\” Julius heard the commotion outside the castle when he came down the stairs to meet Marie. He called other guards and headed for the castle's great doors.

\”What!?!?! Marie?! What is going on??!\” Julius saw his daughter at the door while hooded people attacked his guards. He questioned Marie as his guards prepared to attack.

\”Stop, father!! They offended him first. If the guards act, they will just die.\” Marie was still perplexed by everything that was going on. She knew Lucien was overreacting, but she just couldn't stand against him...

Most of the girls didn't even have any thoughts about the guards. They were not born in Bluewind like Marie, so all they cared about was Lucien.

Cassidy understood that it wouldn't help them, but she couldn't help feeling offended when a mere guard raised his hand against her, and she felt that Lucien did nothing wrong...

Rose had a more intense reaction. She didn't like humans very much, and she loved the way Lucien overreacted for his woman... She wanted him to do the same for her, and her fangs had already grown out of her excitement at the thought of Lucien.

Lust also liked Lucien's show. She was connected with him, and when he acted so intensely, it made her horny. Still, it seemed enough, and she questioned him.

\”You are making your girls tense. They didn't stop you... Did that please you enough?\”

\”I think so.\” Lucien couldn't deny that it was a good thing the girls didn't try to stop him. Marie tried to hold his hand, but she was on his side and not on her own people... He had already punished the guard, so it was time to end the show.

Lucien took his foot off the guard's belly. \”It's enough, girls.\”

Mia put the dagger down; Astrid released the guard, and Rose broke the stone spear. The King looked at the hooded man, who was supposed to be the leader of the group, then questioned Marie.

\”Who is he?\”

\”Him? He is...\” Marie wanted to say that he was her man, but she was embarrassed. She didn't know exactly what her relationship was with Lucien... He said he wanted her, and she wants to be with him, but it's not so simple to declare it to everyone...

Lucien didn't blame Marie for being embarrassed. But he would make his point clear. \”I am her husband. Shall we go in or continue talking outside?\”

\”!?!?!?\”

The King was perplexed and upset. The girls were jealous of Marie. And Marie... She could only cutely blush as she agreed with Lucien... She just wouldn't say it out loud, because she was even more embarrassed now.

\”Let's go in.\” The King knew that continuing to talk outside the castle would only cause problems. He told the guards to stay at the doors, and someone takes the injured man to the healing mage, then called Lucien's group to enter the palace.

Lucien walked to Marie's side and entered the hall, hugging her by the waist. Marie couldn't resist Lucien's touch, and let him guide her like a cute little wife.

Julius led the group into a large and luxurious room where there was a gray stone throne with blue symbols. He sat on his royal throne and looked at the group with a stern look.

\”Marie, explain!\”

Lucien didn't like the tone Julius used to speak to Marie. He didn't care that he was her father, as no one could be rude to his cute wizard.

\”What!? I don't care about your fucking crown. Didn't you hear that I'm her husband? Who are you to demand anything from her like that?\”

\”I am the KING and her father! Do you dare to disrespect me within my kingdom?!\” Julius did not like Lucien and his group at all. He didn't mind killing everyone here, even if his daughter hated him afterward.

When the King spoke loudly, many guards began to enter the throne room. Some with bows and crossbows already ready to shot.

\”Lower your tone and apologize to my wife, or you will be a dead king right now.\” The red katana appeared in Lucien's hand, and his women prepare their weapons. They would fight anyone with just a hint from Lucien.

\”You are a fool!!\” The King stood as more guards surrounded Lucien's group.

*Tremble*

The room started to shake when Rose's hands shone with a slight brown light. She had excellent control over the earth element and could focus her powers to make everything tremble around, but they were safe in the middle of the room.

\”Who's the fool here? If you want to die, I can help you with that.\” Lucien smiled at the King while he was totally calm, still holding his katana with one hand and the other hand on Marie's waist.

Cassidy thought that the Bluewind Kingdom could be their allies and a safe place for them to stay now. She would not go against Lucien's will, but a peaceful solution could be helpful too. She stepped forward and took off some of her hood, just enough for Julius to see her face and not the guards.
