Chapter Fifty One

O U T R A G E : HOW TO CONTROL A WEAPON

“He completely ignored the elderly and disabled!”

“What about my pregnant wife!”

There were a lot of noble complaints today.

“Will he do this often?!”

One thing was clear in all their minds.

They needed to settle the boy down.

“Will he be attending school?”

It was Bishop.

“We haven’t had a moment to speak.”

His son has ignored him since he returned. Even when he needed things. It broke his heart.

“What about a fiancé? I’m sure that might get him to think about others.”

The Queen covered her mouth as the nobles rambled to the King. A bunch of headless chicks.

“Doesn’t he like men?”

“He’s just young.”

“He’s probably rebelling.”

The King could already see all the proposals his son will get by the end of the night.

“Didn't he sleep with all three of his men last night?”

Mikael bit his tongue. Too many witnesses saw him.

“Why not have him marry that woman and keep the other two as lovers?”

Mikael doubted any of their suggestions would work.

“What if he likes elves?”

He was unsure about his son's preferences. On one hand he saw him flirt with the performer, on the other he saw him be…. pushy with older men. That last idea might work.

Mikael didn’t want to admit it, but his son needed something that would keep him focused.

Mikael knows a wandering mind after war is a dangerous place to be in.

Mikael sat back.

But he wasn’t going to force him.

“If he refuses, that’s the end of the discussion.”

Mikael became snippy when things revolved around the little Prince.

“School would allow him to choose for himself what kind of lover or friend he would like.”

The Queen was trying to placate him. Tonight was the night they slept together.

Once a week.

It used to be so that they could have a child, but now it was a quick way to relieve stress. He feels terrible every time he cums in that bouncy little ass. They switched holes since neither wanted a kid. He would feel bad about it, but she’s always preferred a dick in her ass. That’s how he caught her with Darwin’s father, and his brother, pile driving her on their bed. She came screaming the man’s name.

“I’ll talk to him.”

That’s all they could do.

No one had the power to stop him, and even if his wife thinks she can, if that boy wanted he would have already blown up half the city.

Eventually, everyone left and Mikael ended up fucking Claudia against the wall. She came prepped and ready to go. Mikael slid his hand across her flat chest.

She had not even a lump.

When they were children he thought she was a boy at first. Many kids like to keep their hair long. After that day, she made sure to wear very feminine items. He started to shake his fingers across her clit.

She was a sprayer.

Mikael kept going as she soaked through their clothes.

There was a dinner that night.

The King had Kou prepare the entire meal so Osiris was at a crossroads.

“No.”

The three looked at each other.

“The King promised us a thousand gold each, you’re going to dinner.”

“..”

He was betrayed by the gold.

“I’ll give you-”

“Fibble.”

Fibble had the grip of a gorilla and climbed him like a tree. He locked his hands around him. Osiris picked him up by the collar of his shirt and tossed him to the bed.

“Find me something to wear.”

His men started to go through his things.

“I’m sure my desk won’t have clothes.”

“You never know.”

Fibble sat and started reading something.

Sunnie ended up trying on his clothes and Vep found him a very neutral outfit.

“You have ten minutes.”

Osiris didn’t argue and put on the clothes. The men shared another look.

“Are you really sure it’s okay for us to come?”

“You are not leaving me alone with them.” Osiris huffed air through his nose. “I told you it’s normal for the guards to follow the asses of their host.”

“But what if we curse?”

“..”

“What if we talk back?”

“What if we end up in an argument?”

“What if they make us do something we don’t want to do?”

Osiris looked ahead.

“I don’t care if you need to cripple them to get away, just don’t kill them, and you’re free to do what you want.”

“But the others-”

“The only opinion you should be worried about is mine.”

“But what if you’re not around?”

Their anxieties were back.

“Nothing has changed.”

“…”

“What?” He scratched his nose. “I could care less if you three went and killed every worker in the castle. You could rape and pillage and I’d go take a nap.”

“You could always change your mind…”

“I could. Just like you three could choose to betray me in the future.”

“But we-”

Osiris raised a brow.

“Oh, I get it.”

“Just listen to your gut.”

“Vep’s always gets us into the worst trouble, and Fibble… actually his luck isn’t that bad but he suffers for it.”

“So cuss out the King and Queen, make my sisters cry, actually make sure to record that for me.”

There weren’t cameras, but there were little mana things that can record a few seconds and turn them into a little bead you put into a little machine to beam it onto a wall.

“..”

“I think the word I was trying to think of was projector.”

“..”

“Do you really mean it?”

“Have I ever said something I don’t mean?”

Sunnie laughed.

“All the time.”

“..”

“Just get into trouble and see what I do.”

He yawned.

Everyone sat and waited in silence at the dinner table. Luella broke it with attitude.

“Why are we allowing a military cook to serve us dinner tonight?”

“They’re a five star chef, Luella.”

Darwin was back.

He only piped in to say hi after the war before going to their brother’s resting place. He was hurt the most by his death.

“I heard their restaurant is popular.”

Luella glared at her sister.

Beasts became popular during the war. They were the current slave trend, and everyone wanted to eat, fuck, or kill them. They had the product on hand to do so.

“It will die down after things settle.”

The Queen felt calmer today.

She looked at Mikael. His face wasn’t so pinched. Since Kina’s suicide, he hasn’t taken on another lover. A part of her felt like she finally won. Another part of her wonders if this is her chance. She looked at the door. Her tactics have all failed to this point.

Claudia tried to touch Mikael’s knee but he pulled away. She sighed and looked over her children. Maybe it was time she left it up to them. She can work on rebuilding her relationship and they can deal with the boy.

Claudia chugged her glass.

Fixing their relationship means she has to placate that demon.

A server refilled her cup. The red reached the gold trim.

She loves that man.

Since they were children she’s loved him. She’s done everything just to be with him. Through this fake marriage, to watching him cry at the birth of that woman’s son. She sat and waded through neck high waters, and now she finally feels like she has a chance.

“Try not to spring the subject on him.”

Everyone looked at the Queen.

“-stop. I told you to stop mentioning that-”

He was here.

Osiris and his soldiers walked through the doors as they left behind shaking servants. They were loud.

“N-n-no, now a-announcing t-thee-”

Osiris and his men walked to the table and sat. It was blasphemous. The Queen saw red. Her son saved her from the embarrassment.

“Servants are not allowed at the table. I know you haven’t had a chance to properly learn the-”

Osiris threw his upper body on the table and held his head in his hand.

“So when does the food come.”

Sly bastard.

The King knew he’d ignore him if the food was already there. He’s getting desperate for his attention.

“In ten minutes, he said he needed to make you something extra, something about a trout?”

He watched his son light up.

He, it, they… the King was happy.

Claudia watched her husband relax for the first time in three years. She clenched her jaw.

“A-are you sure it’s okay?”

Sunnie could feel their gazes on them.

Osiris sat up.

“If we can’t sit here then-”

“It’s fine.”

The King waved it off.

“I’m quite pleased he brought you three along.”

Osiris squinted at the King.

He tossed three bags of gold at his men.

“As promised.”

Their faces lit up and they took the gold.

“Father-”

He gave Axel cold eyes. The Crown Prince looked at his wine.

“Darwin, glad you’re back.”

“Osiris.”

“How was Zayd.”

Any movement in the room stopped. Darwin sighed and began to stir his tea.

“Dead, as usual.”

“Damn.”

“Damn indeed.”

“I was hoping you’d find him alive, so when you die, you can all die together.”

“Sorry to disappoint you.”

“T-this is a bit-”

“Not now you crow.” Osiris waved her off. “The adults are talking.”

“You really should stop that.”

“What, being mean to Mother Dearest?”

“What about the decorum I-”

“I never said I’d use it.”

“…”

“That’s true, you didn’t.”

Fibble snickered at him. The Queen hated that. She started to puff up when Darwin waved her off.

“Not now, mom.”

Everyone, but Osiris, was stunned.

“Darwin, do you still have that book I lent you?”

It was Fibble and Darwin’s face turned red.

“T-that is, I told you I burned it.”

“I’m pretty sure you didn’t, though.”

“Don’t fucking lie. I hate when you people do that.”

“Gaslight.”

“Gate keep.”

“Girl boss.”

“It’s our slogan.”

“It’s really not.”

A knock on the door.

“Dinner is served.”

Kou came in with all his white fur glory.

“My god.”

“Prince, lovely seeing you again.”

Osiris sat back in his seat. They were on the opposite side of the table. He sat in the Crown Prince’s chair.

“Kou, hi.”

He wiggles his fingers. The beast’s fur around its neck fluffed.

“You’re a dangerous kid.”

Osiris hummed and Kou placed a plate in front of him before he turned to the crowd.

“Please be mindful of what you eat. I am not responsible if someone eats the little Prince’s food.”

He tossed three vials to the cowards.

“You three said you were short?”

“Nice!”

“You have flavors now?!”

Kou chuffed at them.

“Thanks to that little goblin, I can afford to play around with my detox potions. She wants to go commercial? Whatever that means.”

Kou looked at the room’s confused faces then spotted Darwin.

“Little kit, I have extra if you’d like one?”

“What is it?”

The Queen was in her mama bear mode.

“Apologies Queen, King.” Kou turned to them. “I’m still used to serving the Prince first.”

He took a few seconds to watch the boy eat. He was as lively as ever.

“This is a detox the men used on the field. I use it to detoxify meats so that they are edible.”

“You’re trying to give my son field food?”

Kou looked at the Osiris.

It was infuriating for the Queen to see everyone look at that boy before them. They treated him like he was already King.

“It’s fine mom, and yes Kou, I’d like some. Do you have anything salty?”

Kou smiled and tossed Darwin three vials.

“I have three, so tell me which one you like.”

“Get them tested for poisons first.”

“I’ll do it.”

Everyone looked at Osiris who hasn’t stopped eating since Kou was let in.

“It would remove the mana from the meat.”

“..”

Osiris went back to shoveling food down his throat. The Queen watched the blonde orphan reach in and grab something off the boy’s plate. She waited for some kind of blow up, but the soldier just dropped some juice over it and ate it. The Prince did nothing.

“He always makes you the better food.”

“I make all my food the same.”

Fibble cowed from the beast.

“It's the mana in the meat.”

“The masked kit is correct.”

Kou went off and started performing his lavish dinner for the royals. They all begrudgingly admitted it was the best food they’ve ever had.

Luella looked at the beast. He was fluffy. She was more of a dog person, but… she looked how in love her brother was with the creature. She smiled under her hand.

The Queen watched her daughter catch the child’s slip. Anything can become a weakness in this Kingdom. The Queen smiled. It was about time she passed on the torch. Axel noticed after. He was alway a bit slow, but once he started he was as relentless as she was. Mercedes had her eyes glued to the black haired orphan.

Claudia sighed.

Her children all have their little quirks.

She looked at the Prince who winked at the tiger. Again it’s fur ruffled. She looked at Mikael. He was happily eating and watching his son. She touched his leg. He flinched from it. She let her hand fall on the seat.

“How about now?”

She had to show him effort.

Mikael looked down at her hand. He could see from miles away what she was up to. He thought about her ass and let his leg rest beside a finger. Her shoulders unpinched.

“So, Osiris.” He pretended not to hear. “What are your plans now that the-”

“Probably school. You guys fucked up my early education so now I have to start from scratch.”

Osiris debated running his hands through Kou’s fur. He’s touched it once and it felt like a plush throw blanket. Bella had one when they were growing up. He would flatten the fibers and draw on it with his fingers when he was bored.

“School, you want to go to school?”

The King sounded excited. Osiris glanced at him before wiping his mouth.

“I like how that's what you chose to hear.”

“Our capital has one of the top schools on the continent-” He actually ignored him. “-and I know the headmaster personally.”

“I would hope so.”

Mikael became animated as he started to sell the school to him. He sounded like a parent trying to convince their kid camp will be fun. Everyone, including Osiris, let him talk the rest of the dinner.

“It starts next week.”

“Great.”

He stood.

“Let’s not do this again.”

Osiris and his men left.

Axel watched the little ass on the beast woman shake on the way out the door. She was eighteen, nearly an adult. He could feel himself ache.

Mercedes was going to lose her mind.

“I-I think I'll be going home early today…”

She left before anyone could say otherwise.

“I think I’ll go too.”

“Bye.”

“Me too!”

Only the King and Queen were left.

He was on her like a fly on shit. As he fucked her into the table the Queen started to think this might be the best route to take. A fork pushed into her chest.
