Avalyn
The slaves had brought out two full hanging shelves. One held clothes for me and the other for Nik.
All of them were red in colour.
"Why red?" I asked.
"Red is a sacred colour for vampires." Nik said as he went through his clothes.
I hummed as I went through the beautiful dresses.
I chose the most simple and dress with maximum coverage from all of them. It had a tight corset bodice and the bottom part was made of silk that reached the floor. The thing about the top was that it was see through but the intricate designs on it would cover my nipples well enough. At least my lower body would be covered entirely.
I had noticed while coming that vampires like nudity. And they don't shy away from flaunting their bodies. It's a part of their culture. The less the amount of cloth covering your body, the better.
"Don't look at my dress." I hid it behind myself. "I want to surprise you." I smiled.
"Fine. There must be a dressing room in here. You can go there." Nik smiled.
Nodding I looked around the room, trying to guess which door it is.
It's getting ridiculous now.
"Help me locate the dressing room" I told a slave.
She bowed and led me to the dressing room. all the clothes were in this room and one entire wall was covered with mirror.
"We can help you get ready, if you wish, Queen Avalyn." One spoke softly.
"Of course. You can tell me what you need me to do." I didn't want them to scared of any punishment or something. I would never punish anyone.
"Can you please sit on this bench?" She asked.
Nodding, I went and sat on the cushioned bench which was in front of a ceiling to floor mirror.
All four of them worked efficiently. One was giving me a manicure, other a pedicure, one was applying makeup on my face and the last one was doing my hair.
"Don't apply too much makeup, please. I want to go for a simple and elegant look." I instructed them.
"As you please." She whispered. I closed my eyes and let them do everything. They were much more experienced than me anyways.
After about half an hour, they were done. I opened my eyes and smiled at myself in the mirror. The makeup was very natural and my brown eyes were popping because of the perfectly applied eyeliner and mascara. The only thing that was dark was the red lipstick but it also looked nice and went really well with the look. My hair was done in a low bun and soft locks framed my face. My nails were painted red and golden nail-art was done on it.
It looked perfect.
"Now the dress." I smiled.
One slave carried the dress and the other three helped me wear it.
My lips parted. I looked beautiful.
"Heels?" I asked.
"Here, Queen Avalyn." A slave called. I turned around and saw her slide out an entire shelf of heels from the wall.
The wall had floor to ceiling, in built shelves that held different clothings, accessories and shoes.
I walked forward in amazement and looked through them. I wanted something in red and gold.
I finally found the perfect heels. They were golden coloured high heels and the heel looked like it was a stem and on top of it rested a rose which joined with the shoe around my ankle. It looked really nice.
"Would you like to wear ornaments, Queen Avalyn?" One slave asked softly.
"What do you have?" I asked.
She walked towards the wall and pulled out an entire shelf full of ornaments. I saw things I didn't even know the name of.?
But I felt guilty picking up something very expensive.
I chose a simple gold chain with a small tear drop shaped ruby hanging at the end. I wore matching earrings and I was done.
"You will have to wear a belt too, Queen Avalyn." One slave said and motioned towards the section of belts that had chains in between and some designs I didn't recognise.
I took a the simplest one. It was a single gold chain and handed it to a slave. She encircled it around my waist and tied it at the side of my waist.
I looked at the mirror for a final look.
"Do I look good?" I asked the one that put the belt on me.
"You look beautiful, Queen Avalyn." A small smile spread across her face.
"Thank you." I patted her shoulder. "Thank you to you three too." I smiled warmly at the other three slaves who looked very shocked by my kindness.
I walked out of the dressing room and saw Nik standing in the middle of the room, doing something on his cellphone.
He looked up as soon as he heard me. His eyes glittered and his pupils dilated when he looked at me walk towards him.
"You look delicious,?Moya Lyubov." He looked me up at down.
"Thanks. You too." I smiled slyly and checked him out too. He had worn black pants and a black tunic which had red embroidery on it. His hair was gelled back and he looked every inch of the King he was. A very,?very?hot King.
He bent down to kiss me but I ducked.
"Lipstick and makeup." I warned.
"What the hell is this?" His eyes narrowed as he grabbed a fold of my dress. My eyes widened when I realised there was a slit in the dress. It went from my hips down to my legs. One wrong move and my hips will be exposed.
"Oops?" I bit my lip.
"You better not flash anyone or I swear I will not hesitate to spank you in front of that same person." He promised in my ear before he pulled me out of the door.
I blushed. The promise sounded very enticing.
Vladimir and Sofiya were already seated on the couches. They soon as they saw us. Vladimir had worn something very similar to Nik but only less dressy. Sofiya had worn a red and white dress and it fitted her like a glove.
"You look gorgeous." We both said together and laughed at that.
"We should leave now. Or else we will be late." Vladimir, ever the punctual man said.
Nik extended his arm to me and I grasped it. We walked out of the doors and the guards stood in attention at our sight and then bowed.
"Rise." Nik said and they stood up.
Nik started walking where the coronation ceremony was going to happen and the guards formed a square around us again.
After a couple of minutes of walk, we reached a set of double doors that the guards opened for us.
Besides us were two swimming pools, one on each side and I saw two totally naked, beautiful women swimming in each of them. They had a collar around their neck which made me realise that they were slaves.
