Chapter 346 Getting Ready to Go To Lacuna
(From Blue's Perspective)
"Move your hips more," he commanded.
"Haa… Ah…," I moaned as I pulled my hips up and then again, pulled them down.
"You were saying something before. What is it?"
"How… can I talk… ah… like this?"
"Come on. Try it," he smirked.
'Is he making fun of me? This guy…'
"I wanted to say t-that… huh… when you go… ah… to the Queen of… Lacuna… haa… ah… you can't go… alone…"
"You want to come with me?"
"Y-Yes… Hnn…"
"Alright," he said. "I don't mind it. You can come along if you want to. It will be more fun that way since you will be by my side. I get bored by myself."
"She will be there. Why would you be bored?"
"…"
He suddenly flipped us over so I was beneath him. Before I knew it, he started moving his hips, thrusting in and out of me very deeply.
"Ah! Uhh! So, suddenly…"
He licked my ear and nibbled my earlobe while his hand palmed my breast and pinched on the nipple. It was painful, but not too much.
"Dem…! Uh! Ahh! Huh…"
The rest of the night was just as intense as the moment. He did not say anything the whole night, he just kept driving me crazy with his moves.
In the morning, I woke up hearing his voice. "Sweetie, get up a bit early today," he said.

"Hmm?"
"It's eight am. We will leave within ten or eleven, so you need to get ready, right?"
"… What?"
"I said we need to leave before at least eleven, so you need to get up now to get ready."
"Hmm…"
I closed my eyes again. I was too sleepy. It was hard to keep my eyes open any longer.
He sighed and picked me up suddenly. I did not know where he was going, nor did I care. I hugged and snuggled closer to him, trying to sleep some more.
"I am sorry I woke you up an hour before you get up. I did not know you are this sleepy even just sometime before the time you usually wake up."
"I am… sleepy…"
"Yeah, I know that."
I felt something cold against my skin suddenly. I tried to move away from it, but then my whole body felt the coldness. It was cold water.
I jerked awake and looked around me. "Cold…!"
"Are you up?" he chuckled. "Good morning."
"Cold… It's cold…"
"It feels that way because you have just woken up. It's not cold water at all; the temperature is normal," he said. "You were not getting up, so I used this method."
I splashed water on my face so the sleepiness would go away completely. The water started to feel warmer.
"Your maid told me that you are too sleepy if you wake up even just a minute before the usual time. I did not know it was to this extent."
"What were you saying that time?"
"…"
"I don't remember anything…"
"I said we will be leaving within ten or eleven," he said.
"Leave for where?"
"Lacuna, of course. Didn't you say you want to go as well?"
"Ah, yes."
"I told you time last night too, but it seems you have forgotten," he said. "I could have gone alone, but you told me you want to go."
"Yeah, I will go."
'I don't like her. What if she likes my husband again and tries to make a move on him? Both of them are Alphas; she is very strong too. What if Dem can't shake her off?'
Dem helped me take a bath. Unlike other days, he did not step into the bathtub as well, which was very unlike his personality.
"I can't do that today, even though I want to. There is not much time in hand. Besides, your body doesn't look that good. You must be tired from last night."
"Since when have you become so considerate, Dem?" I chuckled.
"You have a weak body. You have gotten better just a few days ago. I can't push the limit of your body much," he said.
"Ah, I see…"
After the bath, he wiped my body and put a robe on me. "You get ready too. I will call the maids now."
"Alright," he said and kissed my forehead. "I love you, only you. Always remember that."
After Dem left, I called the maids and told them to get me ready. This time, I went to look for my dress.
Dem mentioned we might need to stay a day or two there since it involved much more work than it needed to get the agreement of Mazazine. I also told the maids to pack the dresses I chose. Usually, the maids were the ones who chose what I would wear, since I was too lazy to do so every single day. But this time, I needed to choose the best dresses I had.
"Aren't these the fanciest dresses I have?" I asked.
"All of Your Highness's dresses are special, but these ones are extra special. They are made using rare and very expensive materials, after all," one of the maids said.
"Pack the best accessories I have. Three of you will be coming with me," I said. "After this, pack your clothes too. We might need to stay one or two days, keep that in mind."
"We will be going too?"
"I always wanted to visit another kingdom, but I never could. I was jealous of Lady Ruby. She got to experience a lot of things."
"Yeah, we even joined to work together."
"Don't talk too much. Rather than that, make sure I look beautiful," I said, interrupting them. If the talk about Ruby continued, they would start badmouthing her in a moment. Though they did not do so in my presence, they still gave hints.
"Your Highness always looks beautiful, especially Your Highness's eyes."
"Not just my eyes… I want to look beautiful in general," I said.
"Have Your Highness and His Highness fight?"
"How can that happen? Even this morning, His Highness…"
"I don't need a reason to want to look beautiful, right?" I asked.
"No, we don't mean that, Your Highness."
"Actually, Your Highness always looks beautiful. It is not just your eyes. Everyone says that Your Highness is one of the most beautiful women they have ever seen."
"Really?"
"Yes! Your Highness is more slender than normal standard, but your body is still very beautiful. The chest size is perfect, the waist is very small and the hips are perfect. Your Highness has beautiful lips which are neither thin nor plump. Your hair has a perfect shade of black and brown. Your nose is small, but not too small.
Your eyes are the most perfect thing ever; they are sharp and baby blue. Even Your Highness's hands are soft. Overall, Your Highness is a very beautiful and precious woman who anyone has to fall in love with."
'My god, what are you even saying? Though I know they are not true completely, I still am getting embarrassed.'
"That's enough. Now get me ready quickly," I said.
It took me quite a long time to get ready. It was a usual thing now. Getting ready within five minutes like before felt very strange and impossible now.
The main palace always had many people come and go. That was the reason, I needed to dress up as the Queen almost all the time. Sometimes, it was suffocating. The only place I wear whatever I wanted was our bedroom.
Even so, sometimes, I did not care about anything and just wore whatever I wanted when I went out of our bedroom. People in the palace did not care, or perhaps they did, but could not say so.
Dem came to our bedroom when they were applying the finishing touch on my face. He seemed startled, then quickly fixed his composure.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"The dress… is different than usual," he muttered.
"Yes, I chose it for today," I said. "Does it look bad?"
"No, of course not! It's just…"
It was alright. That kind of reaction was expected. After all, this dress was truly different from my usual style.
Finally, it was time to depart. It would be the first time I would meet her face to face and the second time I would face someone who liked my husband. I did not know what to expect; would she be like the other woman who liked Dem? In that case, the kingdom would surely see a downfall.
But I had a feeling that she was not that kind of person. Her expression in the portraits showed a powerful woman. Though I did not like her, I could not deny that she looked like a goddess.
