Art is not mine

A/N

The girl is Valencia, but the clothes are yours.
If you haven't figure it out, Lucian is having an illusion, as he sees you as Valencia, and Valencia as you.

Lucian's Point of View

"Valencia!" I called her sternly in the middle of war, while commanding my army to stop attacking.

Valencia looks like she's going to murder someone, and that someone might be me. I wonder if she's still mad about me kicking her out of Askor...

"What do you want, Lucian?" her voice were cold and distant, distaste completely fills her face.

"Let's stop this war, and come back to Askor." I invited her.

Lilith's Point of View

"Let's stop this war, and come back to Askor," Lucian said offering his hand as he said so.

I'm very grateful that he regrets what he did to me, but the main point where he's still tricked by Valencia's wicked plan doesn't really sits well with me.

Lucian is charmed, I knew it all along. But as a Pureblood Vampire, and having a Mystic's blood, would make him deflect all kind of charms, a teeny tiny witch could make.

Valencia is a witch too, because she's still the distant relatives of Lucian's mother, the Mystic Queen. But of course, Valencia is not that good in Witch charms to be able to charm a Vampire at that point, the less a Pureblood Vampire and Mystic mix!
And at this point I don't even know whether this is on purpose or not.

"No," I stubbornly crossed my arms and face the other way, only to hear Lucian's irritated voice, "My wife, your Queen, Lilith--" "I'm Lilith though," I mumbled and of course being the Great Lucian he is, he heard me clearly, "Valencia... I thought we're over this 'wanting to steal the crown' thing. Lilith is kind enough to forgive your mistakes. She wants you to be punished, and we've decided the perfect punishment for you. This is for your own good, Valencia. You've strayed too far, and when you're back, you're going to work your way from the lowest position, a servant and to your former position."

"Then, I just need to stay here! Why do you even want me to be back?! Didn't you tell me not to put any of my ugly feet on your territory?!"

Lucian gulped, "I said, unless I said otherwise didn't I? And here I am. I thought you'd be happy to be back to your home."

"I've never been happier, now." I stubbornly denied his statement, of course I would be happy to come back under his arms, not in the affair he's in right now.

I heard him sighed, and the suddenly black spot start swarming my eyes before I lose consciousness.

***

I woke up on a hard bed, grunting as I slowly sits up.

"Oh you're awake." A very familiar voice, which only belongs to Lucian, said as he walks closer to me.

"Dont--!" I said interrupting him before he could get any closer.

He sighed again, "Where am I?" I asked with a groan as I put a hand on my throbbing head.

"The Servant Quarter. I'm sorry that I took you without your permission, but Lilith wouldn't like the idea of not punishing you." He explained.

"So now the great King of Askor is taking order from some low witch that's managed to charm you?!"

Lucian narrowed his eyes, "Don't speak of her that way." he said, warning.

"I don't really care anymore" I rubbed my head, to be honest, I'm quite scared being at Lucian's bad side. He's known to be ruthless and cold, a complete tyrant. Yet, all that is gone when he's with his wife, in other words, me.

I started to sit up and slowly stands beside the bed, as I stagger on my way towards the door.

"Where do you think you are going?"
That voice. Valencia.

Before I can reach the door, Valencia stands right beside the opened door.

"Valencia, cut this crap and undo the spell!" I said shouting at her, she then put a fake shocked face, then Lucian grabs my shoulder to put me down on the bed.

"Valencia..." Lucian said looking at me down with pity, "A servant will be serving you, teaching you the way they work." with that Lucian left with Valencia, his hand on her waist.

As on cue, a brunette girl in a maid dress entered.

"Uh, Good Afternoon, my queen." she bowed, I was shocked. She called me Queen!

"Wh-What do you mean?" I asked back, she stand straight as she explained, "Everyone knew he was enchanted, everyone else but him. We all tried to explain it to him, but we all just get punished."

Is that how strong the charm is?

"Uh... I see, in that case, you can't call me like that. Please call me Lilith."

"Okay, m-- Lilith. My name's Altres. Here, please change your clothes. King's order" she frowned.

The dress was cute, a simple black dress, easy to move in

I thanked her and put the dress on, " I expect some work to be done?" I joked after I finished dressing.

"Ah, yes. The King demand you to first go to his study, so he can give you the works. Follow me." She said before marching towards Lucian's familiar study.

Lucian's a passionate person both towards love and work. We did some deeds on his desk a long time ago. Our... Love sessions are really wild, we would have it anywhere everywhere. That's just how needy Lucian is. But now, with Valencia by his side, I'm not really looking forward to seeing that in person. Him with another woman.

Altres knocked softly on the door, and Lucian's voice can be heared to signal us to come in.

Surprisingly, Valencia was nowhere to be found.

"Where's she?" I bluntly ask.

Lucian seems taken aback from my question but he answered it nonetheless, "I prefer not to be disturbed when working so I send her away, shopping."

Lies

Lucian never keeps me away from him. Ever. He can't even stand the sight not seeing me, unless he realized something strange here.

"Anyway let's start your job."
