Chapter 51: His Queen's Desires
"My Queen! My Queen!"
Everett's voice echoed, and Zaiyila, still lying snugly in his embrace, suddenly snapped back to reality. Her smile froze as she blinked several times, looking up at him in confusion.
"Don't tell me I imagined that!" she exclaimed inwardly, completely speechless.
Everett chuckled softly and gazed down at her, lifting her chin with gentle fingers before pressing a kiss to her lips.
"What's my Queen thinking about so early in the morning?" he asked, a sweet smile curving his mouth.
Zaiyila blinked again, feeling flustered.
"I... I..." she stammered, at a loss for words. Finally, she blurted out, "Can I see your horns, husband?"
Everett studied her for a moment, clearly understanding her intention.
"Seeing, but not touching," he warned.
"I'll touch," Zaiyila replied immediately, almost pouting.
"Then I'd rather not let my Queen see them," Everett countered with a small smirk.
