Ileus: The Dark Prince

Chapter 556 - Welcome



To say that Olivia was awed, was an understatement. She was enthralled. A man with eyes like warm pools of honey, raven black hair that extended till his neck, chiseled features and as muscular as her husband, stepped out of the portal. For a moment she forgot to breathe. She was staring at him like he was some kind of a God. Ileus. They called him. 

"Hello Olivia," he said with a beguiling smile. 

And she came out of her stupor. "H—Hello," she mumbled, trying to hide her awkwardness. And then as if suddenly realizing that he was a royalty, she dipped in courtesy. "Your Highness," she said. For the first time she had seen Prince Ileus and she had to say that he was extremely handsome and commanded authority. 

"It's time you come back to Silver Vales," said Ileus after nodding at Olivia with a polite smile. 

When Ileus had stepped out of the portal, he was followed by Finn and a few soldiers. Seeing his General's face all bloodied up, Finn was losing his temper. He had sent Kaizan for protection and yet he got embroiled in a bloody mess. He had made it to Silver Vales by shifting and informed Ileus about Kaizan's whereabouts. 

Jograk approached the prince and said, "May the moon stay above you, Your Highness. Please join us in our celebration." 

"No Sarazin," Ileus smirked. "We have a celebration at Silver Vales in two weeks. Join us in that. For now, I have come to collect my friend and his wife." He knew that the Mords never followed the king's rules in their tribe. 

Ileus didn't expect Sarazin to wince at his words. Jograk stood as firm and tall as he was. He gave him one tight nod with pursed lips. Ileus looked at Aban and shook his head. "It seems Aban had forgotten who he was dealing with. Kaizan is not only my promised wolf, he is Second-in-Command to the Silver Vales army. When he wakes up, remind him that… again. And tell him to challenge cats, not mountain leopards." 

Jograk became stiff at the insult Ileus threw at him, but he didn't dare to utter a word against the dark wizard. 

Ileus looked at Kaizan and then gestured to his with his chin to enter the portal. Kaizan grasped his wife's hand and stepped in it. The portal collapsed as soon as all of them had gone through it.

Kaizan embraced Ileus once again. "Thanks man." 

On the other side, Olivia walked right into a citrus grove that smelled of orange trees. In the dark of the night, she could see soft silvery streaks of moonlight cast shadows on the ground and wondered how come this grove didn't experience the snow. Instead, there were sweet smelling oranges hanging from the tree, ripe for harvest. 

Kaizan stopped in the midst of it. He turned to his wife and said, "Welcome home." 

A pale blush rose on her cheeks and she was thankful for the night that no one noticed it. With a faint smile, Kaizan took her inside following Ileus. 

Finn and other soldiers had already secured the perimeter of the house. 

When they reached inside the mansion, Ileus said, "Since your parents and sister aren't here to welcome your new wife, I will do the honors." 

Kaizan raised an eyebrow. He certainly didn't like the idea of Ileus welcoming them. But he couldn't do anything when suddenly fireworks erupted from the sides of the house and formed an arch in a Disney style. A few shrieks from animals on the outside were heard but that was of no consequence. As they walked inside, Ileus waved his fingers and rose petals appeared on the ground over which Olivia walked. She giggled and her notions regarding the prince melted... a little. 

Seeing how his friend had impressed his wife, Kaizan simply scooped his wife in his arms. "You are so dramatic, Ileus!" he scoffed. 

"What the hell man!" Ileus protested. "I haven't started!" His hands akimbo, he shouted, "So much for rescuing you?" 

Ignoring Ileus' retorts, Kaizan carried his wife to the stairs up to his room. As soon as he was in front of the door, he placed her on her feet. He looked down at her and said, "This is our room." 

Olivia bit her lip. She placed her hand on the knob and turned it down. The door opened into a large room with gleaming and polished wood. A large bed with a plump feather mattress filled the middle space. It was complete with silk pillows and sheets that were woven from finest spun thread. Over it curtains hung from a canopy. An ornate table and chair were neatly arranged with books, parchments and quill stand on the side. Gauzy curtains with golden tassels draped the windows that were closed. The floor was cushioned beneath her feet. The logs in the hearth on the right ride of the room lit with a hiss. Their fire illuminated the room in a warm amber glow. The soft light revealed the expensive décor of the room. 

The door closed behind her with a decisive click. 

"I think we both need a bath," he said, his voice low and husky. 

Olivia immediately reacted and her skin heated like a thousand suns. She wrapped her arms around herself. The kiss she had shared with Kaizan was so intrusive in her personal space but it was something she wanted. But taking a bath with him? As if understanding her thoughts, he said, "You go and take a bath while I go and see if there is something to eat downstairs." 

Glad that he gave her privacy, Olivia nodded in approval. As soon as Kaizan left, she walked to the bathing chamber, stripped her clothes and ran a hot water bath for herself. His bathroom was huge. Marble tiled with a big framed mirror and shelf that contained fluffy towels, Olivia soaked herself in luxury of aromatic oils in hot water. Once again, her mind went to the kiss with Kaizan and she felt aroused as hell.. Little did she know that he was outside, grunting in agony at his rock-hard cock because he smelled her arousal.
