Sebastián's POV

Before he entered the room

Control yourself Sebastián.
You are in control.

I told myself trying to make it pleasurable for her. It's the second hardest thing I've had to do. If only she knew what she did to me with her blood. I was a strong man, but this was asking too much.

I can taste the power, lust, and desire in every drop of her blood. There's something peculiar about the scent and taste of her blood. I've drunk many kinds of blood throughout my life, but none have come close to this.

*****************

She strolled out wearing the navy gown I had purchased for her. I viewed her in a completely different way. Her face was golden, and her gorgeous black hair matched each of her eye colors. I snapped my fingers for my stylists.

"Fifteen minutes!"

They all rush to her knocking her down. I quickly rushed to her and caught her mid-fall. She grabs onto me for Dear life.

"Hmph," she looks up at me with her eyes sparkling back at me.

How come I've never noticed the sparkle in her eyes...

Abigail's POV

As soon as I walked in, everyone in the room stopped talking. As they looked at my gown and how it hugged my physique, their expressions were frozen in amazement. Sebastián is the first to break the statue-like state, gently shifting his gaze from my feet to my eyes. As he watches me, the sparkle in his eyes grows brighter.

"Wow...you're of more use than I expected. You look beautiful," he says Extending his hands out to me.

There it was an insult before a compliment.

I grasp his hands, and time stops as I feel little volts of electricity go through my body. Goosebumps sprang on my skin, and a swirling sensation erupted in my gut.

His eyes immediately shoot at me.

"Abigail? You felt that too?"

"Um, yeah. What is that?"

"I'm not sure. But I believe we've been linked since you gave me your blood to drink "He expresses fear and perplexity on his face.

He continues, "I don't know how all this works but I'll do some research.

"Your majesty, if I may," a woman in her early 20s says waiting for approval.

"You may."

"If what I've heard is correct and you drank her blood, you're now inseparably linked. Based on our documentation of a case from 1352. You can anticipate feeling each other's pains, his majesty being able to locate you, and other things. I'll email you the case file tonight, your Majesty."

"Very well, before you go tho, can this bond be broken?"

"Yes sir..."

"How?" I interrupted her.

"Am, an ancient ritual needs to be performed with a specific set of instructions. Only two of the three are in your possession sir."

"Alright, you're dismissed. Send the necessary information so I can get this bond removed. I'm expected to be engaged to Lady Chelsea and this would surely pose a problem for our arrangement. So no word is to be mentioned outside this room."

"Yes your majesty," they all said in unison.

They continued with their discussions for a while as I was taken next door for my hair and makeup to be done.

"Connaît-elle le français ?" 

"Does she know French?" asked the makeup artist.

"Non, elle est américaine."

"No, she's American."

"Bien, je ne comprends pas pourquoi Sa Majesté est avec Lady Chelsea. Je veux dire, regarde son rendez-vous ce soir, elle était à couper le souffle sans maquillage. Maintenant, nous l'avons simplement intensifié."

"Good, I don't understand why his majesty is with Lady Chelsea. I mean look at his date tonight, she was breathtaking without makeup. Now we just intensified it." Said the stylist.

___________________________

"Quel dommage que le rendez-vous de sa majesté soit plus beau que son fiancé,"

"What a shame his majesty's date is prettier than his fiancé," they both laughed.

____________________________

"J'ai entendu dire qu'elle lui avait donné un peu de son sang pour le sauver et maintenant ils sont liés et il cherche le dernier instrument pour rompre le lien."

"I heard she gave him some of her blood to save him and now they're bonded and he's looking for the last instrument to break the bond."

___________________________

"Pour de vrai, comment savez-vous tout cela?"

"For real, how do you know all this."

__________________________

"Le bibliothécaire me l'a dit juste après avoir eu une discussion."

"The librarian told me right after they had a discussion."

They continued speaking as though I wasn't there until they finished my hair and makeup.
"All done...take a look," the hairdresser said in a heavy French accent.

I gasp in shock looking at the complete stranger in the mirror. My first time wearing complete makeup the magical look it gave my face structure, elegance, and fierceness. The smokey brown eyes just brought it all together.

My beautiful, naturally glowy skin, with a hint of blush and a slight brown color at the end of my eyes and my long eyelashes, was emphasized by mascara. As for my lips, they were bold blood-red lipstick, paired with bold cat eyeliner. My hair was in a bun with a curly bang complimenting the whole look.

The way the dress hugged my curves of softness. With the muscle of an athlete and the blessed fat of a baby, this was the most astonishing I've ever looked at.

I looked to Sebastián for his thoughts expecting his usual remarks. Instead, he looked at me with a mixture of emotions.

Admiration
Surprise
And most of all lust.

"Um...you look beautiful," he says, taking drop silver earrings on my ears in a flash." There your look is complete...now we can go to the banquet."

I turned to him shocked, " This was never part of the deal!"

"Well it is now," he says chuckling as guards escort us.
