Sweet Waters Throne-Chapter 193 - 193 Chapter 193
193 Chapter 19Isabella opened the small parcel and a smile escaped her lips, she looked at Lord Leoric and assured him five of her fine girls will come upstairs for him and they will bath him and also feed him dates and milk. She insisted, “Sweetend cold mik, my Lord” and Leoric said he couldn’t have thought of a better dinner that what Isabella had prepared.
He proceeded to his luxury room upstairs and in just few minutes five girls followed him carrying the cold sweetened milk and dates. From there Lord Leoric completely forgot that he had a wife, and a son. He felt as if he wasn’t a married man with responsibilities, or a man who took a vow to love only one woman his entire life.
Those five girls licked him, played with his scrotums and they did sure suck him whole until he reached his sexual climax. That night was the night Leoric truly enjoyed the things that come with being rich. And those are whores, luxury, sweetened food and the freedom to fuck whoever he wanted.
The arrival of Lord Leoric’s caravan inside the main palace alerted King Artemis, he was having dinner with his wife and their children, and few invited Lords, Lord Balrus, Angun and Akirbus were also present at the table. They made jokes while listening to a soothing lullaby sang by a very talented guitarist from Whitebridge.
Artemis wanted this guitarist to perform tomorrow for his people so they can experience how talented he was. However, his happiness was cut short when he was informed by his Lord Commander, Sir Dante Lucan that Lord Leoric wasn’t present amongst his own caravan.
He was stunned. “What about my sister, the princess?” asked Artemis clearly disappointed by Leoric’s behavior.
“She’s not here Your Grace” replied Sir Dante Lucan standing firmly while holding his sword which was attached on his waistline. “But your nephew is with his wet nurses, inside his chambers”
Now everyone at the table was stunned. Aurora exchanged looks with Lord Spider, the Lord of Dark Town or famously known as the imp. Lord Jon Grimwald of Green Town passed on glances with his wife Urusula Octavianus, who during this time was carrying a child ─ seven months long and she told Aurora after the tourney she will travel to Storm Town to be with her mother until she gives birth.
Lord Finnian of House Iron Falcon whispered to Lord Hawk, the Lord of House Horriss and they seemed to be friends from how close they were, maybe because of the relationship between Lord Finnian and Hawk’s late father, Lord Aethelind during the Battle of Stonedance.
.....
To put it short, they were all whispering and amazed because of how arrogant Lord Leoric was and the disrespect he showed the King for not arriving at the palace, instead he favored elsewhere. Also for showing he cared so little for the princess, who happened to be the King’s blood sister.
“Where could he possibly be? Leaving his son under the care of wet nurses” Artemis screamed, this came out with more rage than he expected. Aurora reached out for his hand, she softly squeezed it as a way of calming him down.
Lord Balrus intervened with a smirk on his face, “If your wife had just given birth and you are famous for fucking half of Maldonian women and across the Silent Sea. Where would you go after a tiresome journey in the cold?” he placed down a puzzle in front of everyone hoping for anyone to solve.
Suddenly, Lord Jon Grimwald of Green Town volunteered to answer, “I would want a warm bath” he said. The whole place erupted in laughter, except for Artemis and Aurora who didn’t find what’s so amusing about what Lord Jon just said.
Lord Spider quipped in still trying to control his laughter, “How old are you boy?” he asked Jon.

“Have you ever fucked any woman apart from your lovely wife?” This was a sarcasm from the imp and even Jon knew it. “He will go to a brothel it’s wide and clear, he is probably fucking ten whores as we speak” finished the imp and continued laughing while sipping his wine. Everyone at the table laughed even Jon, he was so amused by the imp.
Aurora thought the Lord of Dark Town was being rather disrespectful, especially since Leoric was Princess Aeryn’s husband. However, no one found him to be anything rather than entertaining and speaking the truth.
When the laughter subsides, Artemis dismissed Sir Dante Lucan and he continued to eat even though his appetite was already ruined.
In an attempt to cheer up the place, Aurora asked Urusula to describe her experience in Green Town. And it was as if Ursula was just waiting for the perfect moment to just talk about how lovely her new home was. She spoke of the greenery gardens which never seem to fade even with the winter, the sunshine which she used to dream about when she was in Storm Town.
The beautiful flowers of different species ranging from lilies to roses and seasonal fruits. Dark Town was indeed a paradise that everyone must visit once in their life, and also along the way she praised her husband Jon for being a good man who loved her unconditionally. She also spoke of her sister Maggie who had a son with Lord Matthew Hofun in Stone Tone.
But she hesitated when she was asked about Daella, who happened to be married to a lazy fat old man just because of their mother, she said she fled the old man’s house and no one knew where she was, not even their own mother.
The dinner ended not so delightful for Artemis the moment he was informed of Lord Leoric’s arrival, he tried to be as cheerful as possible, but all he could think about was his sister’s well-being. Later on he had Lord Balrus investigate which brothel Lord Leoric was in, and the Lord advised him to let it go, he told Artemis “He is not worth your time”
The next day early in the morning, the crowd showed out for Princess Haisa. They filled the arena in the cold to witness the tournament, the last time this many people showed up in the arena was the day the criminals were burned by the dragons and Vizoro burned the walls and turned them black.
Now they came back to celebrate the new princess. Artemis arrived in a royal wheelhouse dressed in a red silk robe, and on top of it he covered himself with red cloak ─ the colors of Maldonia. His silver hairs shone brightly under the cold sun, and he tied them good. He was holding his daughter on his right arm.
Aurora followed behind carrying Prince Jahery on her arms, she was also in red long dress made of satin and adorned by golden threads, she covered herself with black fur coat on top to keep herself warm. The good folks were also dressed in layers today, indeed it was winter and cold in Blackmount. However, the cold didn’t stop the people from coming out to celebrate the new princess.
All the Lords who made it to the tournament were in attendance on the stage close to the King’s and Queen’s chairs looking down on the tournament stage, and the whole arena filled with the good folks. Some folks travelled from Sea Tone, others from Gravestone, the Mines, Green Town and all over Maldonia to attend these celebrations.
For others who were foreigners, they attended this tournament just to see what will Artemis say. It is recorded that many of the attendees were Prophisians, they fled the war which was about to happen, while others fled their villages because of Prince Ambrose who was stealing their food and animals. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
As usual, Lord Leoric came out late because he wanted to create attention. He wore a grey tunic made of wool, the color of his house which represented the grey dust in the Mines. On top of the tunic, he wore a very expensive red cloak made of silk and fur, it was this cloak which made him look more handsome not to mention he was also smelling so good. He was holding Prince Jeremiah on his hands, trying to show off that he was a good father.
His hairs weren’t tied with bells today, rather he let them fall down effortlessly behind his back. With a smirk, Lord Leoric greeted everyone at the main stage. “My Lords” he said. Then he turned to Artemis and Aurora, “Your Graces…” he slowly curtsied before them with a smile.
Artemis ignored him, but Aurora returned the smile. “Lord Leoric, we missed you last night during dinner”
“Oh pardon me Your Grace, I was rather tired last night and I thought the wine sinks would sooth me to sleep” replied Lord Leoric, he turned to catch a glance of Artemis but he was denied that, Artemis didn’t look at him not even once.
Lord Leoric found his seat on the stage and sat down quietly, his seat was close to Lord Balrus. “Don’t tell me your rodents delivered the news of my doings to His Grace… I hate you Balrus” hissed Leoric without looking at Lord Balrus, but when he locked eyes with Lord Balrus, they both smiled at each other.
