A Forgotten Night With The Lycan King

Was seen

Melanin’s POV

I walked in and saw his back turned towards me as he faced the open window. I couldn’t help but stare at him. Lord Maximus was extremely handsome that will make any woman drool.

"Tell him," Olivia urged, but I ignored her and cleared my throat. "Greetings, my king. You sent for me," I announced, making my presence known.

He didn't say a word, nor did he turn around to look at me. I stood there, waiting for him to say something or give me a command, but he remained silent, making me feel uncomfortable.

"My king?" I called out tentatively, and he finally turned to meet my gaze. For a moment, his piercing green eyes held mine, and I felt myself trembling with fear.

"Come and give me a massage," he said, sitting on the bed.

With a gulp, I walked over and stood by his side, waiting for him to give me instructions. "Proceed," he urged, and I went to the drawer, picked up the ointment, and returned to him.

With shaky hands, I poured the ointment into my palm and went for his forehead, but he stopped me and began taking off his clothes.

With wide eyes, I watched him remove his shirt, and as he reached for his breeches, I quickly averted my gaze to the floor.

"What is this?" he asked in an annoyed tone. "You've seen me naked, so stop this childish act," he spoke angrily while I gulped, my eyes still fixed on the floor.

I noticed he removed his breeches but remained in his underwear.

Slowly, I lifted my head and saw him climb onto the bed and lay on his stomach. "Proceed," he spoke, and I gulped while making my way to the edge of the bed. I knelt beside the bed and poured more ointment, but as I tried to touch him, he stopped me with his next words. "Kneel on the bed; you are too far," he demanded, and I gulped while staring at the bed as memories of waking up in it buzzed in my head.

"Don't keep me waiting," he demanded, and I quickly got to my feet and knelt on the bed beside him.

Kneeling so close to him, I could smell his masculine scent, which intoxicated me and made Olivia howl in pleasure.

But I composed myself and with a deep breath, I placed my hands on his back, and I heard him release a soft sigh. I moved from his shoulders down to his back, stopping at his waist.

As I massaged him, I couldn't help but stare at his well-sculpted body and muscles. Lord Maximus was like a god in human form, and I couldn't help but stop and gaze at his body.

"What are you doing?" he asked when he must have noticed I stopped. "Apologies," I said, returning to giving him a massage.

I moved from his back down to his legs and then back up to his shoulders. I heard him release a sound that was more like a groan.

Slowly, I continued giving him a massage until he gestured for me to stop with his hand and turned on his back, his back now resting on the bed.

I held his gaze and gulped. "Mine," Olivia howled loudly, but I suppressed my emotions.

"What are you waiting for?" he asked, and I gulped before placing my hands on his shoulders. I watched as he closed his eyes and let out a sigh.

My hands moved from his broad shoulders down to his chest and then to his abs. With shaky hands, I moved down to his flat stomach, stopped at his abdomen, and then moved to his legs to massage them before returning to his upper body.

While I slowly massaged his body, I heard him release a groan, and unexpectedly, he pulled me onto the bed and turned me over, causing my back to land on the bed while he positioned himself over me. With stunned eyes, I stared at him and saw him staring back at me with questions and confusion. "My king," I stammered in fear while holding his piercing green eyes. He didn't say a word; instead, he stayed on top of me, continuing to stare, causing my heart to pound with fear.

His heavy weight pressed on me, making it hard to breathe, that I couldn't move an inch; instead, I kept staring at him with terrified eyes.

I heard him release a heavy sigh and then moved away from me. "Get out," he ordered with anger, and I scrambled out of the bed and ran out of the chambers.

I walked as fast as my legs could carry me back to my room, locked the door, and rested my back against it while I breathed heavily. With my eyes closed, I recalled everything that happened in the king's chambers, wondering why he would react in such a way.

"Do you think he has remembered something?" I asked Olivia in panic, but she didn't respond; instead, she murmured, "Tell him, tell him that you are his mate." She urged, but I shook my head.

"We are not his mate; there must be a mistake somewhere. He doesn't even see me as his mate, so how is that possible?" I asked in disbelief, but my wolf kept talking, urging me to tell him. However, I knew I would never do that.

After composing myself, I left the room and made my way to the kitchen to get some food. But as I approached the kitchen, a maid stopped me. "Lady Harper requests your presence," she spoke, and I sighed.

The sun was almost setting, and I hadn't had breakfast yet.

I followed the maid into Lady Harper's private chambers and bowed my head in respect. "You sent for me," I said, and she scoffed, gesturing for me to come closer to her, which I did. As I reached where she stood, a slap landed on my face.

With stunned eyes, I held her gaze and saw her fuming with anger. "You black slut, what were you doing in the king's chamber?" she asked, while I remained dumbfounded, confused by her words.

"Don't keep silent; you were seen by a guard leaving the king's chamber the morning after the death of the former queen. What did you do with the king, you w***e!" Her words startled and dumbfounded me. I never knew a guard saw me leaving that morning.

"Speak," she demanded, and I gulped but quickly responded, "I was just attending to the king, nothing else." I tried to speak, but another slap landed on my cheek.

"You liar! You were attending to the king all through the night!" she yelled and yanked my hair. "Please, my lady..." I pleaded, but she tightened her grip on my hair.

"Now tell me, did the king sleep with you?" she asked, and I shook my head in fear. "Don't you dare lie to me! Did he sleep with you?" she asked through gritted teeth, but I shook my head in pain.

“You are lying to me, right?" she spoke, and just as I was about to answer, I noticed someone walking into the room. "What is going on here?" Lord Maximus questioned, causing my blood to drain out of my body.
