[BL] Seducing Male Leads To Survive As A Villain In A Novel-Chapter 287: Parting Ways

The kingdom had grown quiet under the rule of the Queen. No one dared voice their opinions about the rule of a woman. The people quietly allowed the Queen on the throne.

That morning, Queen Elizabeth sat on her bed while her lady-in-waiting prepared her dressing for the day.

She had some meetings to attend and some officials to meet.

"The Grand Duke Leo wishes to meet you. He sent a message a while ago hoping you’d spare some time to see him," she informed.

Queen Elizabeth had already expected to see him. She had sent him a letter to meet when everyone calmed down. And she guessed it was him coming to meet her.

He clearly was desperate for answers.

"Tell him to meet me in the court after the official meeting. I’ll have time for him today," she explained while staring at the clothes the lady-in-waiting was arranging.

"Are you ready to speak with him?" she asked the Queen.

Queen Elizabeth let out a soft smile. "I’ve always wanted to. The poor kid deserves answers, and I think it’s time he gets it from my side too. He should know the dying words his parents wanted me to pass down to him. And he shouldn’t live with too much hate and contempt anymore."

The lady-in-waiting slowly nodded. "Okay, then."

Queen Elizabeth asked, "How are things going? Is Prince Lysander feeling okay now?"

"Yes. The physician has been taking care of him for a while now, and he reported that he’s already okay. He has even woken up now," she replied.

The Queen nodded. "That’s good. At least he’s awake." She sighed as she stared at the lady-in-waiting. "Has he gone to visit his mother or anything?"

"Still no. He doesn’t seem to want to speak much, let alone even wanting to go see his mother. He hasn’t even asked for his mother yet," she explained. "He only asked for the wizard of EL a couple of times."

Queen Elizabeth slowly nodded. "I see. They do have an interesting bond after all." She asked again, "What about the blue-haired kid? The son of that priest?"

"I don’t know about him. We still haven’t seen him around anywhere, so I don’t know if he’s still in the palace or gone," she explained.

Queen Elizabeth thought for a while. "His father is the priest. And the priest is also mysteriously gone. So maybe he left with his father or his father took him away."

"It’s most likely he took him away. Because I don’t think his father would leave him here," the lady-in-waiting explained.

She sighed. "The blue-haired kid seemed close to the wizard, and his father is the priest. So I’m guessing he also has some powers and is stuck in-between the power of the two." She sighed. "That shouldn’t be my worry at the moment, I guess; the wizard of EL should know how to deal with it."

She brushed the thought off almost immediately as she urged her lady-in-waiting to get everything ready.

She was ready to start getting dressed for the official meetings she had that day.

By the time Elvis woke up, he was alone on the mattress, naked.

He looked around only to see Eden putting back the fire on the sticks with his fingers. He was at least at ease that he hadn’t run off or that all that happened last night was a dream or something. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"You’re awake?" Eden asked, still staring at the fire he had made on the tall stick.

"Mmm," Elvis ran a hand through his messy hair, the blanket around him.

Eden smiled. "How are you feeling? Tired or energised? Or hard?" He turned to him. "You were rather really active last night."

Elvis hesitated with a smile as he looked around. "You were pretty active too. So I guess I could ask you the same."

Eden walked up to him, folding both arms. "Well, I guess so. But I have to say, you really were good in bed last night," he stared down at him.

"Why? Do you want another?" Elvis tilted his head. "We can do some more while we’re free today if you want."

Eden smiled. "I can’t believe you can be this shameless. You even want to go for more?"

Elvis laughed. "Sure. I don’t think I can get enough of you."

Eden turned and made his way back to light up the next stick. "Too bad. I don’t want to spend my whole day riding your big man."

Elvis raised an eyebrow; he stared down in-between his legs and then at Eden, understanding what he meant by that. He smiled.

"So.. what are we now?" Elvis asked, staring at him from the mattress.

Eden smiled. "Isn’t it obvious?"

"Lovers?" Elvis asked.

"Yes, of course. What else do you want to call it? Married couple?" He turned to stare at Elvis. "Do you want to get married?"

Elvis smiled softly. "Well, since the kingdom is under my mum’s command now, I guess we can do that," he smiled.

Eden hesitated, some thoughts flashing through his mind as he smiled. "You really are getting brave. Do you think everyone will be accepting of their crown prince or future king marrying a man?"

"It’s my choice; it’s not like I’m harming anyone. I chose you, so I’ll be with you then. It’s that simple," Elvis explained.

Eden smiled. "Is that so? Then if they ask for an heir, what are you going to do?"

"I’ll find one. A kid we can call our own and raise him to be an heir. It’s that simple. And if they protest, I’ll make sure I shut them up."

Eden nodded with a smile. "Sure, sure. Keep building your ideal marriage. But let’s not be too quick now."

He added, "You should quickly get ready and head back to the palace. Your mum needs you."

"Will you be coming?" Elvis asked curiously as he stared at him from behind.

Eden smiled. "No. I have somewhere to be. Somewhere extremely important."
