Fatigue reliever

Sometimes what seems so perfect, strong and mighty still need a piece to perfect it.

Nobody ever underestimated Cassius. He was born a prince and inherited the throne.

In his life, he can get everything easily so it is difficult for him to get happiness because all the things he wants will automatically get it since his childhood.

But this time the king wanted something that's is not easy to earn.

This little maid, why does she look so sad.

Her cute face pout.

Cassius just wanted to make her happy. But why did she seems so gloomy.

"Are you worried about me?"

Ophelia hesitated, she was worried for the whole Coblat as well as the king "I'm worried for the kingdom, Your majesty"

"By giving you that dime I won't be poor, calm down"

The man said in an arrogant tone that he didn't realize.

Vampires like to talk about their wealth and achievements, because it is a matter of pride for their circle.

Ophelia nodded. Perhaps there really are people in this world whose money will never run out.

"What else do you need?" Cassius asked her again "Just say I will give the list so that it can be bought immediately"

Ophelia shook her head "my needs are met. I don't need anything anymore"

Seriously, her salary really was more than enough to cover her living expenses as well as to have fun.

The king gave this as a reward for pleasing him yesterday.

Cassius cleared his throat "so, when are we going to do it again?"

Ophelia tilted her head "Pardon me?" her eyes widened.

Does she not remember?

"You'll be ready when I call you back later?" He asked, Cassius needed to make sure.

He didn't want to force this poor girl. He needed to make sure Ophelia was ready so she wouldn't faint in the middle of their activities.

Moreover, the king wanted to do many things with her.

"Ah, I remember" The girl finally smiled sweetly.

Yesterday morning she woke up in the king's room.

Ophelia remembers king Cassius calling her. But after that he didn't remember anything else.

So...as long as she doesn't remember what happened to them? Her cheeks turned as red as apples.

The girl hides her face.

How can she act normally after this? She was really embarrassed.

But he also felt presumptuous because she had dared to sleep in the king's bed. Things she didn't even dare to do in his dreams.

Sleeping in the cruel vampire king's bed.

"forgive me, Your Majesty"

"What for?"

"because I dared to sleep in your Majesty bed" she thought she must be tired at that time.

Ophelia did not remember that night she had given her blood for the king.

Cassius Snorted. 'I laid you on my bed'

The memory of the smoothness of her skin made him unfocused. This human girl was really driving him crazy.

"stop apologizing"

"but.."

"If you say that again, I think i might fire you"

"Lia mommy hurry up, come here, look at my troops!"

Ophelia was getting drinks for Averio who had just finished his dinner.

Very good. This time the boy ate his dinner with gusto. She would report this to King Cassius. The man would be happy to hear that.

"Sit here" Averio patted the fur carpet beside him.

The boy was playing with wooden toys shaped like horses and soldiers. Apparently he was playing war strategy.

Ophelia sat beside him to accompany him. While she watched the little prince.

Currently the little prince is only playing battle with his wooden army, later when he grows up he will go to the real battlefield. When he become the king of Cobalt.

Ophelia wonders if when that time comes Averio will still remember her.

"I want to sleep with mommy tonight" The boy puffed his cheeks.

Lia as much as possible always obeys Averio's wishes.

Even though the King had told her not to spoil him too much, Ophelia couldn't.

She take care of a prince. She couldn't stop it, as if all the requests that came out of the boy were orders for her. She felt like she was just his servant. Because that's how their relationship is.

No matter how much she wanted to fulfill this adorable child's request, she wouldn't dare to sleep with him.

Moreover, the king has given clear orders that Ophelia must leave Averio immediately after he sleeps.

King Cassius simply didn't want his son to get too close to a nanny.

"I can't little prince, I'll be right back tomorrow morning. As usual" she stroked her hair.

"why?" he frowns.

"Because when you asleep I will cook you the cake you request for breakfast"

The boy still pouted "Don't call me prince"

Oh my gosh.

"You are the prince of Cobalt, honey"

"My name is Averio. Call me Averio" he crossed his short arms.

Ophelia exhaled "okay"

"I want to help prepare for breakfast!"

Oh my gosh.

*****

Luckily Ophelia managed to put the little prince to sleep.

"uh, I'm glad prince Averio is sleep soundly"

Ophelia was in the kitchen. She would usually drink water before going to her owm bed, that's when she remembered something.

"King Cassius has been very kind today"

She wanted to repay him. Ophelia might never be able to repay the man's favor with money. But she could do something.

The king must be tired from his busy day, today he went out to visit some nobles and landlords.

Ophelia has an idea. She would make herb tea for the king and would bring it to his room.

The girl started to brew the hot herbal tea. Fatigue relief recipe.

Ophelia saw several times that Eva made such tea for her lover who was a palace's gate guard.

She said that the potion was to relieve a man's fatigue.

The recipe is, tea, honey, ginger and one secret spice in the glass jar.

Eva must be asleep by now, Ophelia will tell her tomorrow that she asked for some of her magic herbs.

Ophelia will make this tea for the king! He will definitely be happy and his tired will go away!

She mixed the ingredients, brewed some warm water, then carried the tray to Cassius' chamber.
