Chapter 181: Likable Pain

Chapter 181: Likable Pain

They no longer said anything to each other until Seren finished her bath. The young queen sat in front of the dresser with Eva helping her with drying her hair. Their king and queen would meet the monarchs of Griven officially today so Eva had to prepare Seren with a more formal look, befitting the Queen of Megaris. While Eva was busy working on Seren, they heard a knock, and Marie arrived carrying a small white porcelain bowl.

She bowed to Seren while looking at her through the mirror. "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Eva looked at Marie. "Where did you go?"

Marie, who was older than Eva and understood a lot more things, looked calm and said, "I went to get medicine for Her Majesty."

Eva and Seren saw what Marie was holding and understood what it was. Marie went towards Seren and asked gently, "Your Majesty, I need to apply this on the wound. May I know where?"

"It's fine now," Seren retorted. She was upset with that red-eyed man, and now she had started to feel embarrassed that others were paying attention to her shoulder wound.

Marie noticed the light blush on her queen's ears, as well as the conflict and embarrassment on her eyes.? "Your Majesty, no need to feel shy. Let me put medicine on it so it will heal faster, and not get swollen or infected. With this, your wound will also not leave a scar."

Seren still didn't agree so Marie said again, "His Majesty asked me to take care of it. Please, Your Majesty, let me apply this."

"We need to treat the wound, Your Majesty," Eva urged.

Seren didn't wish her two servants to get punished by the king for failing to do their job. She could only mutter an unhappy, "Fine," but didn't tell them where to apply it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Eva gestured with her head for Marie to move towards the queen's shoulder, before helping loosen the upper part of her dress to expose where the wound was.

Marie carefully applied that medicine on the wound. She smiled as she said to their silent queen, in the tone of an elder, "Your Majesty, there is nothing to feel embarrassed about this. Such things do happen between husband and wife."

Marie being older, could understand Seren was still young and might not have a complete understanding of the things between husband and a wife. Even if the young queen knew, then such things being experienced personally were totally different from only hearing about them. Communication, compatibility, and preferences between couples, the young queen must be confused about them.

"Do your husbands bite you too?" the two lady servants heard their queen ask.

"I am not married yet, Your Majesty," Eva said.

Through the mirror, Seren looked at Marie who was older. From her expression, Seren was sure she must be married.

Marie gave Seren an assuring smile. "It happens sometimes, though not as...intense as His Majesty. As your maids, it should not be our role to comment on His Majesty's actions, but I am willing to be punished if you feel my next words are out of decorum."

"Please continue, Marie," Seren said.

"Well, given how young and energetic His Majesty is, perhaps we can say this is somehow expected."

"But...it's painful..." Seren said in a voice that sounded like a whine. Eva was heavily blushing at this point, unlike Seren who sounded like a complaining child that was curious to explore what 'expected' entails.

Marie didn't know what to say. Though this was something that she wouldn't shy away from talking about with her peers and female friends,? this was the queen's private thing they were discussing. Such intimate details...

Marie cleared her throat and she tried to maintain a straight face. "Perhaps you must talk about this with your husband. Such things should be likable for the couple."

"Likable?" Seren asked. "It's painful!"

"It should be a likable pain, Your Majesty."

Seren stared at her servant as if to ask, 'Are you for real?'

Marie nodded slightly. "Soon, Your Majesty will get used to it. If it's really not something you enjoy, you must tell your husband for you to find a middle ground."

'Get used to it? That means he will bite me again when he wants comfort?' Seren panicked inside. 'If I tell him I don't want to comfort him, he might get angry at me.'

Marie finished applying medicine to Seren's wound. "It's done, Your Majesty."

However, Seren did not respond, immersed in her panic, trying to figure out how she would stop him from biting her again.

Marie and Eva helped Seren with her hair as well as her jewelry. They never got to touch the face of their queen. Seren always wore a veil and the two servants didn't dare ask her to take it off. They had heard about it before, and they knew about her wearing her veil all the time. According to rumors, no one had seen her face ever, well, except their king. It seemed like their king was the only fortunate person to have seen her appearance.

Sometimes, the servants of the royal entourage gossipped about how Queen Seren must be a peerless beauty behind that veil, to the point it made the devil-like king of Megaris wed her in a hurry. Of course, more of those in the entourage believed that was not the case, as the scales on the queen's body proved that she had an inhuman appearance. The majority of them believed the young king fell for the queen due to her kindness and benevolent heart.

After helping their queen with her hair and clothes, as usual, the two servants stepped out of the room so Seren could put on makeup on her face though it didn't seem like she needed it. Her purple eyes were enough to make her look pretty and unique.

Seren came out of the room once she was ready and heard Marie again, "Your Majesty, the King asked you to join him to meet the King and the Queen of Griven. We will escort you to His Majesty."

Seren didn't want to but she had to. Who would dare defy the orders of the King of Megaris, the dangerous red-eyed man who seemed even more dangerous to her knowing he bites people for comfort?
