"Your Highness, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me immediately." Oster walked to the bed and took off the outer layer of clothes to prevent Marianna's bed from being soiled.
He is now very grateful that he has developed good living habits after being spotted by a certain drow mistress.
After all, the rise of drow civilians is limited to martial arts talents and beds, so it is not uncommon for "lucky ones" like Oster to be favored by the mistress.But in contrast, it is the speed at which the mistresses abandon their lovers and their ruthless attitude towards their ex.
Even sometimes, the drow whose moral values are low enough to have a relationship with the Balrog, have to beware of the male family members of the mistress competing for favor with him.
Because drow men with "noble" blood accounted for a large proportion of the sacrifices to the fallen goddess, those noble male drows who spared their lives would always try to please their mistress and sisters at all costs, so A "lucky guy" like Oster is undoubtedly an obstacle on their way to survival.
And when Oster approached Marianna, the latter could not smell anything from Drow, as if there was a transparent person lying beside her.
"Do drows love 'clean' like you?" Marianne turned her head sideways, watching Oster's long silver hair hang down on the bed.
Oster knew that Marianna liked his hair very much, because this kind of smooth hair similar to mithril has always been the biggest selling point of drow elves.
Even at certain moments, it will become a rope for their self-help and a weapon for strangling their enemies.
Mariana ran her right hand through Oster's hair, winding strands around her fingertips like a elf weaving a flower basket.
Before Marianna allowed him to serve, Oster just sat quietly by the bed, even intentionally reducing the weight he put on the bed.
From Marianna's point of view, Oster is undoubtedly more attractive now than when they first met.
Especially when he took off his armor, his strong body and dark skin that shone with healthy luster were undoubtedly the perfect combination of wildness and elegance, which reminded Mariana of the black panther that came and went without a trace.
It is so charming.
At this moment, no matter how much dissatisfaction Mariana had with Oster before, she did not indulge in the charm of the other party at this moment.
"Your Highness, may I kiss you lightly?"
Although Oster can definitely be called an old driver, the drow women he met before were all good on the bed with sadism, so for Oster, pleasure in bed does not exist, even He needs to shut down a part of himself to survive Matron Drow's torture, so that she can have fun on him.
But now, facing the young Mariana, Oster didn't know how to start.
Granted, he had ways of satisfying Mariana without making the last move.
It's just that in such a distraught atmosphere, Oster wishes he didn't act like a savage.
"Of course." Marianne pulled out her hand wrapped around Oster's long hair, and motioned for him to get closer.
"But I want to lead it all."
Mariana pressed Oster's cheek.
Blushing gasps soon sounded in the bedroom.
…………
……
It has to be said that Oster's service was far more thoughtful than Mariana thought, even though they didn't make it to the last step, Oster still tried his best to make Mariana happy.Even with the help of alcohol, Mariana felt that even if she made it to the last step, she would not get greater pleasure than this.
It's a pity that this joy was short-lived after all, and the ensuing hangover made Mariana feel dizzy when she opened her eyes the next day, and it was difficult to tear her back from the bed.
"Are you awake?" Abigail, who had been waiting by the bed for a long time, pressed Mariana's shoulder, wanting to see if her bones had been softened into a puddle of mud by alcohol: "Did you have a good time last night? "
Abigail glanced at the seat next to Mariana, and saw a faint mark left there, which was so clean that it didn't look like anyone had been there before: "I got up in the middle of the night to clean up the mess for you, you should give me some Reward."
Mariana grabbed Abigail's arm and pressed half of her body weight on him before barely sitting up with her upper body, and then leaned against the high pillow to collect her thoughts: "Where's Oster? He didn't spend the night in my room? "
"You underestimate Drow's desire to survive too much." Abigail rang the room bell, and called the female elves with toiletries: "He wished that no one knew what happened last night, while in Drow In our society, those men who can get the love of the mistress will not only be loved by the mistress, but also more likely to be rejected by competitors, and even assassinated."
Abigail pushed Mariana's hair behind her ears to prevent her hair from getting caught in the gap of the button when Mariana changed clothes: "In drow society, as long as it cannot be proved, it should be treated as if it never happened .”
Mariana stood in front of the mirror and twisted her neck, making sure that there were no particularly obvious marks on her body before changing her clothes.
"Why, I'm scared." Abigail seldom saw Mariana looking so cautious, so he teased: "I thought you were not afraid of anything! Or...you were afraid that Lucius would know about it."
"Take it easy, do you want to squeeze out my overnight meal?" Mariana was hurt by Abigail's rough hand on the belt, and she was blinded by the latter.
"Stop yelling, my hands are light enough to bathe the baby." Abigail threw down Mariana's vest strap angrily, and let Luciane take over her job: "It's better for you than to yell here. Should see how many red marks you have on your waist and thighs."
Mariana followed Abigail's gaze down, and then said in shame and indignation: "Ridiculous, do you want me to lift up my skirt..."
Before Mariana could finish her sentence, she saw the elf maids avoiding their eyes without exception, trying to put on a look of "I don't care, I can't hear you".
Abigail noticed that Marianne was subconsciously tightening her skirt, so she continued to complain: "Didn't you have a very happy chat with me before, and you were very presumptuous? Why did you become timid after you really started doing it?"
"Who the hell said that he wanted to take me to the red light district to learn more? Even willing to pay for my 'tuition fee'?" The trump card.
"You don't want your reward anymore?"
Before Abigail, who was pinched by three inches, could roll her eyes, a maid's announcement sounded outside the door.
"Your Highness, Miss Sera from Calda is here." The maid working on this floor knocked lightly on the doorknob three times, and then glanced at the anxious Serra from the corner of her eye.
Although she is only one year younger than Marianne, she is completely inferior to the latter who is already well-versed in the adult world in terms of how to behave in the world and control facial expressions.
Because Earl Karda is not rich, both Selim and Sera are dressed very plainly.
Selim is fine. After all, one of the virtues of knights is simplicity, and overly gorgeous weapons and armor will only get in the way in actual combat, so those ambitious people who take the route of force pay more attention to the practicality of things.
But girls are different.
Especially an ordinary girl like Sera who is in a sensitive period.
He was already timid because of his illegal background, but now he was hit by the extravagance of Aquikwe's court.So much so that after she stepped into Aquiqui's court, she was so silent that people thought she had changed her inner core.
"Let her in." Marianna was very curious that Count Calda still had the courage to send Serra after yesterday's unhappy breakup.
This is really...
Too sarcastic.
Mariana still remembered Earl Karda's defense of Selim and his angry face, but unexpectedly, she didn't feel anything about it now.
"Your Highness, it's a pleasure to see you again." After entering the room, Sera didn't know what to say to Mariana, so she could only salute Mariana in a humble gesture that no one had ever done before, and then followed the other party's direction. The lace on the skirt looked at this half-sister who was far more outstanding than her.
Marianne Lorraine Aquique-Dunawa.
The only surviving child of the Grand Duchess Aquique and the Count of Calda, and heir to the vast realm.
Compared with Serra, Mariana is undoubtedly more like a child of the Dunawa family, and it also intensifies Serra's inferiority complex.
After all, Mariana is the legal heir of Count Calda.
No matter how much love Sera received from Count Calda, it couldn't change the fact that she would never catch up with Mariana in her life.
And after Sera saw Aquiqui's wealth and the privileges of Marianna, this inferiority complex turned into confusion about her own future and naked jealousy.
[It would be great if I were the child of the Grand Duchess Aquique and Count Calda. 】
Sela pursed her lips, trying not to look jealous.
【No, it's not fair to mother. 】
Thinking of her parents who had done so much for her, Selah suppressed the resentment that was bubbling up, and then turned her attention to Marianna.
It turned out that the other party was looking at him, and showed interest in his eyes.
"Look at this little unwillingness." Mariana lifted Selah's chin, enjoying the jealousy, unwillingness, and any negative emotions related to her that Selah showed.
It can be said that after gaining power, Mariana has already experienced the thrill of manipulation.
Whether manipulating people's future or manipulating people's emotions, Mariana feels that she is as high as the gods and omnipotent.
"I know what you are thinking, and I know that we will never be intimate." Mariana has withdrawn her delusions and unwillingness at this moment, and thanked Earl Karda and her illegitimate siblings for waking up. she.
"So there are only two things I ask of you, and that is loyalty and obedience." Mariana let go of Sera's chin, and her tone was as gentle as ever: "Now, please step back."
Marianne met Sera's gaze while keeping her bent knees, making the latter shudder.
"I have made arrangements for you, so please treat me as your object of allegiance, your duchess, and a..." Mariana couldn't find a suitable word for a while, so she looked away from Sera's face. He retracted it, and then waved his hand, signaling Abigail or Lucian to take Serra down.
"Miss, please move a step or two."
Because Abigail was unwilling to receive Serra, the more courageous Lucian made a "please" gesture to Serra on his own initiative.
"I don't think you have the right to talk to me." Sera swallowed the grievance in front of her, and then vented her anger on Lucian.
Regarding this, Lucian said frankly: "I am indeed not qualified to speak to you, but Her Highness Mariana doesn't like too many servants, so in this room, except for Her Highness himself, there are no people who are qualified to speak to you. "
"You..." Sera couldn't believe that there were people in Grand Duke Aquiqui who disliked her, and even Marianne's slaves dared to throw face at her.
Fortunately, Lucian's words were not too much, and she didn't want to have any communication with Count Calda's illegitimate daughter, so after asking Abigail for instructions, she handed Sera to Lena, who Mariana had brought back from Brittany.
Since the death of the Regent of Britannia, Lena, who was loyal to the former Duchess, cut off her obsession. Finally, under Mariana's persuasion, she gave up the idea of burying the former Duchess and succeeded. Join Mariana's team.
I believe that Lena will make a move.
Sierra must be made clear.
…………… I am the dividing line……………
Lucius didn't know how he spent last night.
As the leader of the Knights of Aquiqui, Lucius's ear is so sharp that it is difficult for the Grand Duchess of Aquiqui to make a series of arrangements without disturbing Lucius.Therefore, what Mariana did yesterday, as well as the news that Oster left Mariana's room in the middle of the night, must not be hidden from Lucius' eyes and ears.
"I thought you would be so jealous that you would kill that drow right away." The doctor who was invited by Lucius to chat did not gracefully put his long legs on the armrest of the chair. Hughes despised him, but after getting along for a long time, he got used to it.
"You look like... no, you are a control freak who wants to control Mariana's life." The doctor raised his glass to Lucius: "Although you use common interests to explain your too close relationship with Mariana, but in In my eyes, this argument does not hold water.”
The doctor is older than the combined age of the Grand Duchess Aquiquie's family, so Lucius' little thoughts can't be hidden from his eyes at all... Even if the latter conceals it so well that even the Grand Duchess Aquiquite can't detect it Something is wrong with the eldest son.
"You love her more than yourself, and you are also worried that you will lose control, right?" The doctor drank the rest of the drink and said with a burst of blood: "Maybe you were lucky that Mariana would marry someone else one day." China, so your careful thinking about her will eventually be defeated by the friction of time. But compared with this joy, I am afraid that her return will make you more emotionally excited."
Lucius didn't answer the doctor's words, but lowered his head so that people don't know what he was thinking.
"Are you sure you want to keep silent?" The doctor asked: "No matter how you deceive yourself, the blood relationship between Mariana and you will not change, and you will not be able to control your heart."
"At least as far as the current situation is concerned, it's impossible for you not to care about her."
"Do you have to make your words so clear?" Lucius, who finally spoke out, messed up his middle-length hair, which should have been well-behaved. This also made Lucius, who had always been quite reliable in front of others, It reveals a slightly fragile and glamorous temperament.
If Mariana was here, she would definitely not equate Lucius in front of her with the one in her memory.
"But what can I do but deceive myself?" Lucius sighed, his voice full of self-deprecating bitterness: "She is my sister, and she can only be my sister."
"Can't you talk about a spiritual love?"
"No." Lucius replied quite simply: "I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it in the end, so I can only go so far."
Lucius is a very cautious person, because his living environment does not allow him to make the slightest mistake, so Lucius prefers to underestimate himself than to overestimate his ability.
However, he still failed to make a correct judgment on his feelings for Mariana.
In other words, Lucius didn't want to make a correct judgment.
"I really care about her." For the first time ever, Lucius admitted his feelings for Mariana.Because if he keeps holding back, it will definitely cause a series of irreversible problems.
"In my heart, no one is more important than Mariana. Even my promise to the gods is not as good as my love for her." Lucius' Adam's apple rolled up and down, and tears also appeared in his unawares Down, slowly sliding across the still calm face.
"I long to be with her in a fair manner, and even more long for her to escape from this family that makes her unhappy." Lucius leaned back in his chair, as if lost in memory: "Our family is a twisted cage, and we can be in it All that survive are monsters."
"Marianna is a monster."
"I'm a monster too."
"Are you sure you want to call yourself a monster in front of me?" The doctor moved his long legs off the armrest, with an expression of "you're fucking kidding me": "So the problem has come back to the original point."
"Compared to expressing your heart to Mariana or having a romantic relationship that is only limited to the spirit, you would rather feel sorry for yourself here, and then watch Mariana go to someone else, right?"
The doctor felt that Lucius was not a general contradiction, but if he could use it properly, it might not be a good card in his hand.
"Yes." Lucius, who had been struggling all night, admitted without hesitation, "I'd rather be deaf and dumb than being hated by her or hurting her."
"I believe that your name must be included in the list of Eros believers." The doctor looked at the sky and felt that it was time to go back.
However, the moment he got up, Lucius' originally decadent expression suddenly became serious.
"Doctor, you won't shoot Marianna like that drow elf."
The young Templar at this moment behaves like a frescoed devil.
"Please tell me you wouldn't do that."
Facing Lucius' questioning, if it were the previous doctor, he might give an affirmative answer in a vicious way.But at this moment, his strong desire to survive forced him to reflex: "I'm not interested in a girl who is old enough to be my great-granddaughter."
"That's good." Lucius loosened his furrowed eyebrows, and then opened the door for the doctor himself.
"Mianna, please continue to worry about me."
At this moment, Lucius turned back into that dignified and reserved Templar.
It's just that after the doctor went out, Lucius moved his finger bones and decided to go to Oster to settle the score.
…………… I am the dividing line……………
"It's been a long time since I've been back, so it's time for me to take a look at my territory." If the former Duchess of Brittania hadn't died suddenly, Mariana would not have stayed in the Grand Duchy of Aquique for long before returning to her territory. go.
Because of her three engagements, she received three territories as dowry and compensation for divorce, plus the dowry land that the Grand Duchess of Aquiquie originally intended for Mariana, so even if Mariana did not inherit the Principality of Britannia , Surrounded by alimony, the inheritance of Queen Mary and Prince Dunawa, and the taxes of the three territories, she can live extremely well, and she can be described as a veritable rich woman.
"You own the Principality of Brietnia now, do you still care about that little territory?" Abigail knew very well that most of Mariana's territories were border cities that were not rich, so at the beginning of taking over, Mariana did not It is said that it is to obtain taxes, and even have to reorganize the infrastructure there at its own expense, and then return the officials left by the previous ruler with eyes almost reaching the top of the head.
For this reason, Mariana has made many false claims with Richard of Solins and Seis of Cantero.
The latter was fine. After all, the Cantero people were always direct, and Seys and Obstad had a complex relationship that was constantly cutting and unreasonable, so they didn't make things difficult for Mariana.
But Richard was different.
In order to return the Solins officials left behind by Richard, Mariana used both soft and hard tactics to those bastards for two or three months, and even borrowed the hand of Odin's little emperor to achieve this goal.
"The Principality of Britannia is my new harvest, but those places are my base." Mariana is very aware of the importance of Dele, Colin, and Heihe City.
After all, compared with the Principality of Brittania, people in these basic groups are accustomed to Mariana's rule, so they are more loyal to her.
"I have to go back and look at it from time to time, otherwise they will forget who is their ruler and which country they are from." Mariana does not want the Grand Duchy of Aquique to be in conflict with Solins, Odin, and even Cantero. When a conflict arises, these people will reflexively side with the former ruler.
Abigail didn't care about Mariana's worries, but after hearing Mariana's plan for the day, she asked casually, "Are you going to take Baixue and Oster with you?"
Mariana's writing hand froze slightly, and then ordered to Bai Xue: "Go and find Oster."
However, after Bai Xue searched all the places Oster often visited, he still didn't see the shadow of the drow.
He is now very grateful that he has developed good living habits after being spotted by a certain drow mistress.
After all, the rise of drow civilians is limited to martial arts talents and beds, so it is not uncommon for "lucky ones" like Oster to be favored by the mistress.But in contrast, it is the speed at which the mistresses abandon their lovers and their ruthless attitude towards their ex.
Even sometimes, the drow whose moral values are low enough to have a relationship with the Balrog, have to beware of the male family members of the mistress competing for favor with him.
Because drow men with "noble" blood accounted for a large proportion of the sacrifices to the fallen goddess, those noble male drows who spared their lives would always try to please their mistress and sisters at all costs, so A "lucky guy" like Oster is undoubtedly an obstacle on their way to survival.
And when Oster approached Marianna, the latter could not smell anything from Drow, as if there was a transparent person lying beside her.

Oster knew that Marianna liked his hair very much, because this kind of smooth hair similar to mithril has always been the biggest selling point of drow elves.
Even at certain moments, it will become a rope for their self-help and a weapon for strangling their enemies.
Mariana ran her right hand through Oster's hair, winding strands around her fingertips like a elf weaving a flower basket.
Before Marianna allowed him to serve, Oster just sat quietly by the bed, even intentionally reducing the weight he put on the bed.

"I long to be with her in a fair manner, and even more long for her to escape from this family that makes her unhappy." Lucius leaned back in his chair, as if lost in memory: "Our family is a twisted cage, and we can be in it All that survive are monsters."
"Marianna is a monster."
"I'm a monster too."
"Are you sure you want to call yourself a monster in front of me?" The doctor moved his long legs off the armrest, with an expression of "you're fucking kidding me": "So the problem has come back to the original point."
"Compared to expressing your heart to Mariana or having a romantic relationship that is only limited to the spirit, you would rather feel sorry for yourself here, and then watch Mariana go to someone else, right?"
The doctor felt that Lucius was not a general contradiction, but if he could use it properly, it might not be a good card in his hand.
"Yes." Lucius, who had been struggling all night, admitted without hesitation, "I'd rather be deaf and dumb than being hated by her or hurting her."
"I believe that your name must be included in the list of Eros believers." The doctor looked at the sky and felt that it was time to go back.
However, the moment he got up, Lucius' originally decadent expression suddenly became serious.
"Doctor, you won't shoot Marianna like that drow elf."
The young Templar at this moment behaves like a frescoed devil.
"Please tell me you wouldn't do that."
Facing Lucius' questioning, if it were the previous doctor, he might give an affirmative answer in a vicious way.But at this moment, his strong desire to survive forced him to reflex: "I'm not interested in a girl who is old enough to be my great-granddaughter."
"That's good." Lucius loosened his furrowed eyebrows, and then opened the door for the doctor himself.
"Mianna, please continue to worry about me."
At this moment, Lucius turned back into that dignified and reserved Templar.
It's just that after the doctor went out, Lucius moved his finger bones and decided to go to Oster to settle the score.
…………… I am the dividing line……………
"It's been a long time since I've been back, so it's time for me to take a look at my territory." If the former Duchess of Brittania hadn't died suddenly, Mariana would not have stayed in the Grand Duchy of Aquique for long before returning to her territory. go.
Because of her three engagements, she received three territories as dowry and compensation for divorce, plus the dowry land that the Grand Duchess of Aquiquie originally intended for Mariana, so even if Mariana did not inherit the Principality of Britannia , Surrounded by alimony, the inheritance of Queen Mary and Prince Dunawa, and the taxes of the three territories, she can live extremely well, and she can be described as a veritable rich woman.
"You own the Principality of Brietnia now, do you still care about that little territory?" Abigail knew very well that most of Mariana's territories were border cities that were not rich, so at the beginning of taking over, Mariana did not It is said that it is to obtain taxes, and even have to reorganize the infrastructure there at its own expense, and then return the officials left by the previous ruler with eyes almost reaching the top of the head.
For this reason, Mariana has made many false claims with Richard of Solins and Seis of Cantero.
The latter was fine. After all, the Cantero people were always direct, and Seys and Obstad had a complex relationship that was constantly cutting and unreasonable, so they didn't make things difficult for Mariana.
But Richard was different.
In order to return the Solins officials left behind by Richard, Mariana used both soft and hard tactics to those bastards for two or three months, and even borrowed the hand of Odin's little emperor to achieve this goal.
"The Principality of Britannia is my new harvest, but those places are my base." Mariana is very aware of the importance of Dele, Colin, and Heihe City.
After all, compared with the Principality of Brittania, people in these basic groups are accustomed to Mariana's rule, so they are more loyal to her.
"I have to go back and look at it from time to time, otherwise they will forget who is their ruler and which country they are from." Mariana does not want the Grand Duchy of Aquique to be in conflict with Solins, Odin, and even Cantero. When a conflict arises, these people will reflexively side with the former ruler.
Abigail didn't care about Mariana's worries, but after hearing Mariana's plan for the day, she asked casually, "Are you going to take Baixue and Oster with you?"
Mariana's writing hand froze slightly, and then ordered to Bai Xue: "Go and find Oster."
However, after Bai Xue searched all the places Oster often visited, he still didn't see the shadow of the drow.
