I
King Timodore slowly walked towards the guest room. He stopped upon reaching the door of Sulie’s room. He made a second thought while holding the doorknob.
Slowly, King Timodore twisted the doorknob of Sulie’s room. As he peeped, he saw Sulie sleeping in a very provocative position and black lingerie. She is lying flat and her legs are open, thereby exposing her womanhood. King Timodore looked away, narrowed his eyes and drastically closed the door, and fled. He returned in a flash to his sacred room, hissing in absolute tormented emotion.
King Timodore tossed here and there. If his divan is a human bed, it might be feeling dizzy now.
“Hah! What the hell is going on with me?! There is a woman out there offering herself to me, yet my goddam libido has never been aroused even after seeing her very arousing position!” He jeered at himself, stood up, and made strong punches in the air to relax himself.
In her room, Sulie actually was awakened when her door has been banged by someone. She can sense that it was King Timodore, but she was wondering why he did not enter her room at all. She looked at herself and she felt confident thinking that she is perfectly beautiful.
King Timodore decided to go to the balcony to feel some fresh air since it is an open-air place fronting the mountains. He made a deep breath and gathered to his lungs those fresh air around.
He stood at the balcony, two hands placed on the balcony’s railing while looking at the vastness of the mountainous view in front of him. It feels refreshing but his heart was still not pacified. He made a sigh and shook his head wanting to release his tension for a moment.
He was on that alone moment when suddenly he felt eyes watching him. He turned around and there he saw Queen Asalea standing nearby, watching him with longing in her eyes.
King Timodore returned her look with his blank and cold eyes, waiting for her next move.
With that uninviting look of King Timodore, Queen Asalea has been challenged. She thought before how her sweet caresses and kisses made him crave for more and moaned her name. She will test it on him again this time. With much courage, she made her move towards King Timodore.
