Chapter 12
The door swung open and Liorn walked in. He was frowning but once he'd seen a stranger and his wife locking lips, he became furious. This stranger’s hand was all over Melinia as they kissed and touched. Millions of thoughts and explanations ran through his head but the battle demon was loose and starved.
The bastard that was on top of his wife rose. He looked familiar but Liorn didn't care, he only wanted blood, his blood.
Reaching for his sword from the sheath that swung from his leather belt, he unsheathed the blade, it's silver glinting in the light. Melinia stood up and both was battle ready. Both swords were drawn and the glare Liorn held was truly frightening.
Melinia didn't want to make a huge fight, for who knows what scandals would unravel. She ran in front of Liorn telling the man to leave. He had an arrogant smirk on his face. "I'm sorry my Lord you had to witness this, but we just could not hold our desires back any longer." The Lieutenant spoke full of arrogance. Liorn cringed, his sword ready to kill. "Move Melinia-Now!" He growled from behind her not daring hurt her. Melinia shook her head, "Please don't fight" She begged.
"Why?! Because you don't want me to kill your lover?!" He spat the word like as if it was a plague. Melinia shook her head, "He's not my lover" she spoke to him.
"Don't take it to heart-your highness-your queen prefers a real man who can fulfill her desires" He spoke with a knowing deliberately fusing Liorn's fire.
She glared at the lieutenant, who did not seem to acknowledge her in the least. "Leave before someone gets hurt" And she knew who it would be.
Liorn looked at Melinia. She betrayed him. How could she? He dropped his sword on the ground. Melinia stood to his side now holding onto his arm tight and steady. "Leave!" He bellowed at both of them. The Lieutenant had a big grin, one that held victory. He started to walk towards the door that would lead him out. Opening the door to the bed chamber Charles looked back speaking over to Melinia," My lady Melinia, if you crave a real man, just know where my bed lies. I'll show you how real men play."
It all played out slowly. Liorn slid out of Melinia's arms and rushed over to the Lieutenant. He raised his fist swinging over to his face. A loud crack resonated and the Lieutenant's face swung to the side and he literally flew out the door. "Liorn!" Melinia shouted grabbing him from behind, to prevent him from doing any more damage.
Liorn turned on her, face cold and furious full of anger. He reached for her wrist dragging her with him. "You come with me." He snarled. His hold on her hands were hurting her wrists. "Liorn" She struggled against him. She was tired of being man-handled. She kicked him in the shin wanting to get away from Demon Liorn while he was like this. He would not listen to her. She got close to the door when he grabbed her by the waist and threw her over his shoulder hauling her over to the bed.
Throwing her, he grabbed one of her shawls that lay nearby, he went on with tying her wrists together. "Liorn let me go!" She shouted at him. He ignored her getting to what he wanted.
"I planned on waiting" He spoke tightening the fabric and tying it to the headboard of the bedpost. She pleaded to let her go. "I was going to be gentle-treat you like what you are. A Queen" Tears started to stream down her face, He's not listening. She thought. I broke him. She couldn't get free as she struggled against her bindings. She then looked up to Liorn to see him watching her. His eyes held dark emotions that she could not read as he then leaned in to lick her collarbone. He slid the sleeves of her gown down her shoulders as he loosened each hand to slip the sleeves over each of her arm.
Loosening the laces on her bodice he pulled the gown lowering it. "I didn't want to rush any of these things, I didn't want for us to be like this" He whispered. Instantly removing her gown then removed her undergarments down her legs. "But you lied to me, you said you would love me Melinia, you said you would try" He choked on some of his words.
"Liorn-please" she begged. He already dropped her gown to the floor. "I have no choice, I have to claim you now" He spoke removing her chest garment, revealing to the room her breasts. He grabbed them, squeezing with force. "Okay, okay claim me, just please untie me" She cried. Liorn didn't listen, sucking in her left n****e, nipping the pink bud. Her body responded to his touch. "Did he touch you like this?" Liorn growled his voice held such contempt and hatred. Dark and sinister. "No-we nev"
"Why do you lie?" He asked as he trailed lower. "I'm not Liorn! Listen!" She tried to get through to him. For him to understand. "Not this way Liorn. Please"
He had already removed everything from her. She lay naked for him to see everything. It wasn't moderate yet it felt scandalous. This was not what husbands and wives do. She saw him sit up and rested himself between her legs. Melinia shut her eyes not wanting to see the look in his. She tried to close her legs but he prevented such a thing. Right at that moment she felt useless, worthless. No control but he had.
He licked his fingers as he started to rub the sensitive flesh. His fingers slid in mesmerizing circles across her core. She begged for him to stop. The unfamiliar feelings in her body and she felt his slick fingers enter her channel. She was wet and moist, but not quite ready for him. Liorn had freed himself from his breeches as he thrusted into her tight channel. She screamed feeling immediate pain. She cried as he was already moving trying to release himself inside of her fast and easy. At first slowly, then fast as her body was accommodating his size. He then pounded into her again and again.
Breathing heavily, he grabbed her bottom and lifted her. Melinia cried silently saying "No more."
Liorn felt a tear slide down his cheek and onto her. But she didn't notice it. She had probably brushed it off as perspiration. I have done a horrible thing; I will burn in hell with that I had done. He thought to himself. He made a mistake with their growing relationship.
With one last thrust he let himself go deep in her womb. Sweat trickled on the collar of his tunic. He was fully dressed while Melinia lay naked. Loud sniffs and whimpers filled his ears. He'd hurt her. She hid herself behind the back of her arm. Crying. He slid out of her, his semi-hard member wet with her coating and traces of blood.
Melinia had twisted to the side pulling her knees up to her chest. Her hands still bound as it left bruises to her wrists. His wife cried and he had caused the tears. He saw blood trickle out of her mixing with some of his semen. Gods, he was a beast.
Liorn touched the side of her hip- after putting himself back in his pants-and she lied still. "I hate you" She stuttered, "You bastard, I h-h-hate-" She cried again. He pulled the covers over her and sat on the far end of his chair waiting until the sky got dark after releasing her arms and Melinia fell asleep.
His throat tight he felt the lump in his throat. This eve and the morrow from now on he will become the beast. The Demon and Black Heart that everyone had already thought him to be. Who was he to think that he wasn’t anything like his father? All he knew was to hurt those he should love. Hell, who was he to think he would be able to do just that. He didn’t know how to love. With that thought in mind, he sat and stared at the silhouette of Melinia.
