The king’s midnight lover

his coat, their cheeks reddened as they touched their king. He was the most handsome in the entire kingdom. The royal family were all beauties and the theory of how they remained young and beautiful was yet to be discovered. Or was it because they were rich and could afford any skin care product?.

Adrian had short silver hair, his eyes were as dark as midnight but they turned red whenever he shape-shifted, his eyelashes were long and black and they hovered on top of his frightening eyes. His nose was thin and straight. His lips were thin and pale pink. He also has a sharp jawline, in summary, his face was breathtaking. His muscles were strong and his chest was sturdy. He was the dream of so many women but unfortunately, he wasn interested in any of them.

His motive right now is to avenge his sister and mothers death, which is killing the magical creatures. First, he was going for the fairies as they were the owners of the pixie dust the witches make use of to create their potions.

Once the maids were done, he took long strides across his chamber towards his door, he was going to the conference room, where the ministers and administrators awaited him. His two bodyguards followed behind him just like the servant they were.

The door of the conference room was large, it had some great carvings on it, one made by only professionals. The Kings presence was announced and Adrian walked on the red carpet to his throne. His expression was devoid of any emotions as he sat on his throne majestically. His eyes scanned everyone present before him.

”Your majesty ” They curtsied while keeping their heads bowed before the king. The King ordered them to rise and get started with the meeting. The meeting lasted for two hours before everyone was dismissed.

Adrian implored his right-hand man, Amon to take care of things in his absence as he was going with the armies to the village where the fairies resided, he needed to see with his own eyes how those little creatures would cry in pain as they were tortured, only then would he be satisfied and then he would go for the stinking witches.

His sword named- Poison was brought before him. It was named that way because of the poison it had, the king had asked the blacksmith to create a portion on the sword where the poison could be refilled. Whenever the king used it to strike someone, the person not only sustained an injury but would also be poisoned, and after two minutes of having the poison in the system the person would turn into dust.

Poison was silver in color and was very sharp, it has a ruby stone engraved at the top and was quite heavy, only the king could handle it very well.

Adrian walked out of the castle, ignoring the maids, and servants who were bowing their heads at him. He went to the stable where his horse named Knight was brought before him. The horse was black and had a dark mane around it, it was also fierce and it suited the personality of its master.

”Your majesty, we are ready, ” The general said, the kings eyes moved from the general to the armies behind him. His lips curved in a smirk, the fairies would meet with their extinction very soon.

”Lets get going ” The king ordered, he rode away and they all followed suit.
