"What's wrong?" Orion asked, his gaze fixed on Madam Seraphina's doubtful expression as she scanned the room.

Madam Seraphina glanced at the window again, then shook her head and focused on Orion.

"I thought I heard something. Maybe it was just my imagination," she said.

Orion's brows furrowed at her words, and he decided to take a closer look around. He knew that if she was right, and there was truly someone else present, there was only one person it could be.

Orion gently grabbed Madam Seraphina's curvaceous hip to get her attention, then slowly guided her down from his chest to the bed. "Let me check just to be sure. After all, we don't want anyone to know about our relationship before we make it official, right?" Orion suggested.

Madam Seraphina's eyes widened in realization as she hadn't considered that view.

It was true that news of their relationship spreading could create quite a stir, especially given the current situation in the kingdom. So, it was indeed wise for them to keep it a secret until they had the chance to reveal it themselves.

Orion left the bed and pretended to examine various hidden corners of the room before making his way toward the window.

Once he reached it, he gently pulled aside the curtain and caught sight of a familiar figure trembling and shivering behind it.

"Is there someone out there?" Madam Seraphina asked from her comfortable spot on the bed, observing as Orion finally came to a halt after thoroughly searching the room.

Princess Crystalia stood trembling beside the curtain, her gaze locking with Orion's as she listened to Madam Seraphina's voice.

In the past, she wouldn't have been so fearful of being caught or of witnessing something like this.

She would have merely felt mild shame and embarrassment.

However, now that Orion had demonstrated his strength, and proven his intimacy with her mother's personal maid and one of the leaders of the Prismerian Healer's Council, she was terrified of what might happen to her. She understood that she shouldn't have seen this.

"No, you were right, it's nothing," Orion replied, shaking his head. He then turned to Madam Seraphina with relief before shifting his attention to Princess Crystalia.

Her shoulders slumped, and she let out a quiet, relieved sigh.

Orion couldn't help but smile mischievously at her reaction. He leaned forward slightly, causing Princess Crystalia to take a step back, her body tensing up.

"It's okay to be curious, but you're going to get yourself into trouble sooner or later if you keep coming here at night. However, if you really want to understand how it feels, come back here at the same time. I'll be waiting for you, alone and ready," Orion whispered into her ear.

He then quickly leaned back and arranged the curtains properly, so as not to spoil the mood or alert Madam Seraphina to what had just transpired.

Internally, Orion snorted at the mental image of Princess Crystalia's gown folded between her legs.

How could he not tell what was going on in her body when he had spotted the moist patches on the lower end of her gown?

Additionally, the fact that the window was open behind her suggested she could have left whenever she wished instead of staying to continue watching.

He was certain Princess Crystalia would return tomorrow.

"Vixen!" Princess Crystalia muttered under her breath.

She took a deep breath and released it before turning around to free her dress from between her thighs.

With a quick jump, she exited the window, climbed back up, and closed it behind her after grabbing the rope she used to descend into Orion's room.

She left her questions for another time, knowing they would meet again tomorrow, and she planned to have a serious conversation with him.

Madam Seraphina immediately turned her head toward the strange sound coming from the direction of the window as Orion lay on the bed, making himself comfortable.

Observing this, Orion wrapped his arms around her waist and rolled on top of her, then rolled over to the other side, positioning her properly on top of him.

As his flaccid member gradually grew firmer and brushed against Madam Seraphina's garden, Orion extended his arm below her back and positioned his two fingers on her vaginal lips.

He then inserted his semi-flaccid penis into her delicately folded labia.

"Uahh~~~Uaaah~~" Madam Seraphina felt his intrusion but widened both of her legs over his to accommodate his entry.

After making sure that everything had settled in, Orion said, "Let's go to sleep." He wrapped both arms around her and pulled her close to him.

Madam Seraphina nodded softly and rested her head on Orion's chest. She suppressed the pleasurable sensations in her legs and drifted off to sleep.

"Good night, dear," she whispered softly, causing Orion to smile as he, too, fell asleep.

…......

The next day

"The Queen is waiting for you inside," a guard held the door open for Orion to enter.

Orion nodded in understanding and walked into the room, the doors closing behind him.

His gaze immediately met Elysia's, who stood beside the queen, but she quickly averted her eyes, looking at the floor.

Elysia's body trembled as she concentrated on the ground beneath her.

"I thought you would take your time and rest properly before coming, so I decided to have a little breakfast while I wait," Queen Selene said, offering Orion a light smile from her seat as he approached her.

Orion heard Queen Selene's weary voice and turned his attention to her. It was evident from her appearance that she had a challenging time sleeping, with dark bags under her eyes.

It appeared she had also attempted to remove the choker, but it seemed to have been in vain, as she was still wearing it around her neck.

Observing Orion's gaze fixed on the ancient artefact still wrapped around her neck, Queen Selene shook her head, a wry smile playing on her lips.
