She came up before him and lowered her head in greeting."Mast---" she paused, swallowed, and added, "My King."King Lucien looked at her with the same expressionless face that has become his usual look.

Oh, what did Remeta say to trigger a look like this on his face?She didn't know when her arm rose on its own accord to rub soothingly on his back. She didn't know where the courage came from, but she found herself patting him.King Lucien was deep into his head before he felt the soothing caresses on his back.

"I am your king for this evening. Not your master." The reminder made her glow. She decided to take a leap at fate. "Then, can I ask you a question, My King?" When he gave no reply, she bit her lips. She walked right beside him in silence, inwardly cautioning herself not to overstep her boundaries again. He stretched out his hand towards her and waited.

She hasn't recovered from the long night she spent in his arms last night, but her aching body still longs for his.If he demands her in his bed again tonight, she will be there.
