After their time by the fire, and arguing over their current relationship status, they decided they should return to her camp. She was all worked up over taking him back with her, and everyone seeing her like this. The reputation she made of being a deadly and ruthless demon was about to crumble.
Walking through a portal he made, they were back.
The camp site was busy, people moving about, working, heading toward training grounds. However, the minute the two of them stepped through the portal, they were met with armed guards.
"Stand down you idiots." Lilith was back to her cold vicious self. But the Leviathan wasn’t the least bit surprised by it. Actually, he had a sly grin pasted on his face. He enjoyed seeing his little fiery queen.
"Apologies, Queen Lilith, we thought it was an intruder." One solider said with his head bowed and kneeling low.
"Get lost before your face pisses me off." Her tone was icy. If Leviathan didn’t know any better, he would have thought she’s the Queen of Ice and not the Queen of the Damned.
The soldiers scurried off in a hurry. Not wanting to risk their heads for an honest mistake.
"That was quite harsh, my queen. I found it extremely attractive, and it only makes me want to fuck you more. And I didn’t even know that was possible." He was hellbent on seducing her again. He couldn’t get enough of her.
"Is that all you think about? If it is, I shouldn’t have brought you along. I’m preparing for war." She groaned. Being away from his layer helped clear her head some. Still though, every time she looked his way, her heart would flutter, with butterflies dancing in her stomach.
"I think about eating flesh too, though not yours, at least not in that way." His smile was positively sinful, and it made her want to bend over a table right then and there. Despite her annoyance with him, she couldn’t get past how complete she felt with him next to her.
"What am I even going to do with you?" She rhetorically asked rolling her eyes and throwing her hands up in surrender.
