Calla Lily, The Eunuch King's Goblin Bride

"Guards! GUARDS! Bring this insolent man down at once."

King Theon burst out in aggression pointing his finger at Adonis who was standing proudly, holding his sword and flinging it around.

Upon the King's roaring call, the main hall began to tremble under the distinctive echolocation. The thumping of soldier's boots and shinny armoury was clacking with their significant moves.

And soon twenty royal guards appeared in the sight, their silver shiny armoury was glittering in the bright golden lit lamps, big globes two at each corner of the extravagant court hall.

Two guards plunged forward and grabbed the shoulders of Adonis shoving him down on the floor, as his face touched the cool surface of white marbel. It was still unbelievable for him that King Theon actually ordered his dismissal, agreeing to Eros.

An evil smirk graced eunuch Eros's face who was all by himself celebrating his victories, one after another. His expressions mocked Adonis regarding his current condition.

"My Lord he is your most trustworthy man. I beg you on his behalf please spare his life. I believe he did not get to swallow the idea of my intrusion and stay in this resplendent kingdom, and got carried away with unstable emotions. He was at fault My Lord but please spare his life, I beg you."

Eunuch Eros immediately changed his expressions to pleading ones. And knelt down in the feet of King Theon begging him to have mercy on Adonis, which flared up Adonis at once. But he preferred to keep his mouth shut in order not to provoke the King further.

"Only because you are pleading me to show an act of mercy, eunuch Eros. Otherwise this king punishes to those whoever dare to revolt against the orders."

Eunuch Eros successfully played his card to snatch the honourable position from Adonis, that would support him to rise to a remarkable title afterwards, non matter what that would be, maybe being King himself.

"I daresay Your Highness, I'm your self proclaimed and dutiful man. Yet you are trusting this outsider without even providing me a chance to prove myself in your eyes?"

Adonis was aware of the facts that his words will anger King Theon but the latter ones will compel him to an agreement to his request. As he knew the King was afraid of being in a situation where he could not justify his own uttered words.

Before King Theon could mutter a word, to place forward his final decision about Adonis, a certain sound began to voice, feebly. The sound was somewhere far but with every precise moment it was arriving closer.

Eunuch Eros shut his lids for a brief moment as his strong awoken senses provide him a hypothesis that it was the sound of ankle bracelet, the music was coming due to the bell attachment to that jewellery.

After a few seconds a lady drapped in rich silk yellow gown appeared at the scene, panting.

"Oh! My Lord, Thank God I arrived right in time."

The lady was catching sharp breaths with one hand clasped to her neckline, which was low to the extent to expose her b.r.e.a.s.ts lineage.

"Adara, my love! How come you are in this state? What happened?"

King Theon lunged forward to grab a hold of the lady's hand, his right one slipped around her waist, as he completely ignored the existence of two men.

"My King! Oh My Lord! I'm glad you are safe and sound. The news arrived that an assassination attack happened on the way."

Adara threw her head on his shoulder dramatically manifesting her worry. As King Theon strode towards the magnificent throne, supporting her wife in his embrace.

"I'm alive, in front of you. All thanks to this young.....uumm eunuch!"

To save his face and to keep his tyrannical, brave reputation in front of his woman, King Theon stated eunuch Eros anatomical representation.

"Greetings, My Queen."

Eunuch Eros knelt in front of her, a few steps below the throne. With his right hand resting on his heart and left tucked on his h.i.p.s, showing his utmost respect.

It took him only a few moments to register that Adara was not a low level concubine but a queen. Eunuch Eros keenly observed and studied her expressions before making his next move, as to know your enemy's weakness one must be an excellent observant.

"Mhm."

Adara straightened her crown presenting an affluent picture to Eros. Who was already aware by now of her rank by that jewellery and yellow silk, which was only restricted to royals.

"My Lord I'm not feeling well. As you have returned, shall we move to rest chamber?"

She clutched King Theon's robe by neck portion and with most romantic tone she requested seductively.

"Ah! yes my love I also want you to check on me regarding any injuries."

King Theon levelled her face by chin as devoured her helenic face.

Standing up from the throne, the duo strode towards the exit of the court hall.

"Eros! I would love if you stay here for tonight until you come to a final decision."

Before leaving the hall he ebbed and invited Eros for stay. While eunuch Eros clearly saw The Queen's stare bored onto Adonis's face, who was still held captive onto the floor by guards. Who did not move an inch, perhaps were trained like that.

"Leave Adonis!"

Narrowing his eyes as soon he passed the order, the guards stepped back setting Adonis free from their clutches.

"I'm forgiving your unforgivable deed Adonis. Do not prove me wrong."
