Chapter 73 VALERIA Imust admit that when I saw the ancient castle towers on the misty hill, [let outa sigh of relief.
I peeked through the carriage curtain at the powerful lycan riding beside me, admired everywhere we passed.
Many things had happened during this journey.
Discreetly, I touched the mark on my nape, hidden by the dress's collar.
His powerful canines were imprinted on my skin, claiming meas his, even if only temporarily.
Now, how was I supposed to behave around His Majesty? So many thoughts crowded my mindlies and fears.
I decided to act the sas always, like the maid with the privilege of sharing his bed whenever my inner butterfly craved a delicious mistreatment.
What are you doing? Why are you going back to your room? He grabbed my hand, stopping meas I signaled the servant to take my small luggage to my quarters.
Your Majesty, its only logical that...
phe logical thing is for you to sleep in my bed.
I'll speak with Sasha so she knows things have changed and that you'll be in charge of giving her orders regarding the castles management...
Wait, wait, Your Majesty...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgay my name, Valeria, he said, stepping closer, as usual trying to overwhelmwith his massive and sexy body. Isubtly glanced around.
We were right in the entrance hall, having this conversation while he did whatever the hell he wanted, as always.
Sir...
Aldric, I corrected myself when his brow raised in irritation.
For now, I'll stay in my room and continue serving you as your maid.
Another servant wont be necessary.
Truthfully, the thought of another woman touching his things made my blood boil with rage.
gine.
I don't want any other maid invading our space, but you don't need to handle the hard tasks.
You can order them to wash, iron, or do anything else you dont want.
I'll speak with ---- Sasha No.
Linstinctively raised my hands and covered his mouth.
His wolf-grey eyes watchedclosely, questioning.
I didnt want him to make a scene.
Everyone already looked atstrangely enough, and the servants fled like I was the plague.
Probably because of the aggressive scent of his mark.
Aldric, lets leave things as they are for now, okay? Maybe later you won t like all these sudden changes and feel uncomfortable.
Maybe you'll regret marking me...
get bored of me...
and I'll be left as the fool who acted like the lady of the castle.
valeria, [already told you we need to talk.
I know you're feeling insecure, but things won't change.
You and I Valeria, is that you?! Suddenly, I heard Dave's cheerful voice from down the hallway, and Aldric growled low, irritated by the interruption.
Dave, the "maid," truly had a gift for being inconvenient.
I still dont know how hes survived in this castle for so long.
Wow, what a smell...

ike a skunk in heat! $-Sir! He practically skidded to a stop when he saw Aldric, almost wetting his pants.
He suspected it was me, but he failed to recognize the real threat standing therethis loan had his senses up his ass.
What did you just say about my warning pheromones? His Majesty took a menacing step toward him, and Dave shook his head frantically as if his neck was spring-loaded, retreating several steps. No, no, no! I didnt mean Valerias scent, sir! meant the castle, yes...
the castle...
He nervously wiped his fingers along the wall, clearly flustered.
You should clean the place better.
Maids these days only think about climbing into their bosses beds...
I could have been offended, but I knew he didnt mean it maliciously or even because of me.
He was just stumbling over his own awkwardness.
Oh, Goddess, I should cut my tongue out.
Why dont I cut it for you? Aldric lunged at him, and Dave had to run off the way he came.
