BXBX NOVEL Chapter 174 Morning Exercise
Last night, Darius told her to think about the choices she had and to also consider his feelings on how he wanted to mark her even more considering the possibility of her activating the angel blood within her. He wanted to do it as soon as possible, but he was thankfully willing to wait for her to be fully ready and committed to doing the same.
Humming to herself, she lazed into Darius’s arms for a good while. She could smell the reeking scent of sex on their bodies, and it only made her smile at the memory that came with it.
She and Darius had made love the entire night without so much as a care in the world. In fact, he only stopped when she finally passed out from exhaustion. Feeling herself, her body was starting to feel sore, which only meant that Darius’s blood in her system was already wearing off.
“I guess it only lasts a whole day,” she murmured, pertaining to the effects of Darius’s blood on her body.
How unfortunate… Oh, how she wanted to stay idle for just a few more minutes and simply remain in his arms like this, but she still needed to get up now, seeing as the sun rays were already seeping through the open window of the cabin.
With a silent sigh, Xenia carefully moved out from Darius’s hold, making sure not to wake him up as she tucked the sheets behind her. Afterward, she immediately cleaned herself up and changed into something more comfortable for training..
Going through her clothes, she had everything she needed with her inside the King’s cabin, seeing as Gideon had it all delivered for her in advance.
“Okay…”
Nodding to herself for a job well done, she then grabbed the celibacy potion from the chest that Jayra prepared. Carefully prepared it on the table, she mixed it in with the tea she was preparing.
“Hmm, good morning…”
Xenia smiled when she felt Darius’s arms snaking around her waist. With a greeting whisper, he snuggled his nose into the crook of her neck, his poking hardness also eagerly greeting her from behind.
Hmm… That won’t be good in the long run. She should feed him the potion right now before he got any good ideas…
Quickly turning around, she handed him the cup of tea with the potion as she instructed, “Here, drink this before you use that thing of yours to our detriment.”
Darius chuckled at her serious reaction. Shrugging, he didn’t say a word as he quickly drank his tea in one gulp.
“I can only hope this works out fine,” he murmured with a sigh, indicating he already knew that he had just drank Jayra’s celibacy potion.
“It will. You just need to take it daily every morning,” Xenia explained. She couldn’t help but widen the stretch on her lips at seeing how Darius shrugged his shoulders.
“Why do I even need to drink it daily?” Darius complained. “Why not just give me one dosage that can last a week?”
“For one, it’s dangerous to take a large dose of it in one go. It might… permanently make you a chaste person,” Xenia warned, and she chuckled at the way Darius’s face paled at the warning. “What? You’re the one who requested this. Don’t complain~”
“Uhh… yeah, that’s because I didn’t want us both getting distracted with one another,” Darius painfully explained. “If I don’t take this, our supposed training will turn out more to be a honeymoon. Because I can guarantee you that self-control alone won’t be an option, especially whenever you’re around…”
“Hmm, don’t worry then. Just drink it as prescribed and there will be no side effects,” Xenia teased before dragging her eyes down to Darius’s usually bulging groin. “Now let’s see if it’s taking its effect right now.”
She raised an eyebrow at what she saw. He was so hard just a while ago, but it seemed like the potion was finally doing its desired effect.
“This is awkward,” Darius embarrassingly murmured as she followed Xenia’s gaze.
Xenia’s lips curled up while staring at Darius’s softening rod. “See? It’s going down right now!” she exclaimed in amazement as she raised her head.
“Okay, let me grab my clothes then,” Darius rolled his eyes as he reminded. “Go out there and make sure that you don’t let your guard down, Xen. Take note: your training will officially start the moment you step out of this cabin.”
With a pout, Xenia asked, “But aren’t we going to have breakfast first?”
“Yes. They’ve already prepared it outside, my love,” Darius said with a wink. “Don’t worry. I’ll be there with you shortly. Go and get some fresh air from the ocean. Ah, the weather is nice, you’ll love the view and activities outside, my love.”
Xenia could only shake her head as she turned around and headed back to the door leading outside.
And sure enough, the moment she stepped foot outside, she was greeted by a dagger flying straight at her face.
“What the hell?!” she exclaimed as soon as she dodged it.
“Sorry, Princess, but this will be your morning exercise for the day!”
Turning around, Xenia frowned as she saw Admiral Osman with a dagger in his hands. He had an awkward smile as he added, “Good morning, by the way…”
Before she could even retort, another dagger flew right towards her direction, Xenia smoothly dodging it as she then quickly looked around in search of where the daggers were coming from.
‘Where the hell are they-‘
A few seconds passed before a few more star-shaped daggers flew right towards her. Having had enough, Xenia concentrated on dodging them without exerting too much energy, following exactly what Darius taught her about feeling the air around her and anticipating movements.
“It won’t stop till you find out where those daggers are coming from, Princess. That, and you have to subdue whoever or whatever it is throwing those daggers,” Osman stated from the corner without looking at her. For some reason, he seemed quite busy with reading whatever was on his hand.
Silently heeding the advice, Xenia checked out her surroundings from all sides. Unfortunately, she couldn’t seem to find anyone in her current position.
“From the water?” she unconsciously murmured, her eyes sharpening as she quickly ran to inspect the edges of the ship.
To her surprise, Xenia saw a few floating boxes lining the sides of the ship, all firing daggers in her general direction.
“Tsk! Seriously?”
She clicked her tongue in annoyance. She would’ve preferred to have breakfast before going into action, but it seemed like her Werewolf King had other plans that involved starving her unless she finished this demented morning exercise!
