Chapter 7: Flower bath

Morning sun beams peeking through the clouds from yesterday's dark night, birds are doing their morning rituals singing in a beautiful tone to wake both us up, a gentle cool breeze running through each strand of our hair as we are on a fast horse and golden light shining everywhere.

Before dawn, we have already woken up and started our journey. Now we are getting closer to our Kingdom which is The Kingdom of Zinir. I am relieved that we started our journey earlier.

"If I spend the night with her again, I'm sure this time we'll really do it for real..." I said in my mind as I controlled my black horse's movements.

After several hours of riding really fast, we finally arrived in front of the entrance gate of The Kingdom of Zinir. I don't need to show my identity card because from a distance they already know that I am The Demon Lord 1st Commander. They waved and called my name. I also noticed that Jenny was waiting for my return in front of the entrance.

I just waved and nodded my head to answer them because I needed to take Vi to meet The Demon Lord Alazuir as soon as possible. After stopping in front of the main gate of the palace, I got off then opened both my hands to help catch and lifted Vi to get off my black horse. As usual, she is very light as a leaf.

Then, I told the butler who greeted us on our return to take care of my horse and things. I lead Vi to the main meeting room of the palace to meet with Lord Alazuir. After arriving at the door, the knight guarding the door announced our presence.

"Please come in." Heard the voice of Lord Alazuir behind the big door.

After we entered, Lord Alazuir came down from his throne and went towards Vi to hug her. He seemed very relieved to see his daughter who looked healthy and didn't have any scratches on her.

'If he knows what I almost did to his daughter...I'll die for sure...' I thought while looking at the loving father vibe that Lord Alazuir gave.

He then looked at me and thanked me a lot for successfully bringing his daughter back. I mean like...l'm the best knight in this kingdom so for me this mission is just normal. Maybe he was too happy...so... I just thanked him with a smile.

Then after speaking and reporting on our whereabouts in The Kingdom of Sun, Lord Alazuir let us go to rest or do other things we want. I walked but Vi seemed to be following me from behind.

"Is there something? Vi" I leaned down at her face and asked.

Since that night I have started to speak formally and call her by her nickname. She then looked at me and hugged my neck with both of her slim arms. It took me off guard. Seeing her like that, I took her to a quiet place and looked into her beautiful violet eyes.

"Seriously tell me what the problem is...?" I asked her as I wiped the tears that fell from her cheeks with my thumb.

"*wuuu it's just that I feel too happy to meet my father who I haven't seen since I was a child." She said hugging me.

I pat her head and hug her back.

"It's okay now yeah...since we've just arrived why don't we go take a flower bath in the private bathroom..." I told Vi to get rid of her sadness.

She then looked at me and nodded her head twice. I told any maid to prepare bath water. After the bath water was available, I took Vi to the private bathroom.

I showed her her bath robe and then undressed myself as usual. I turned my back on her while undressing. Suddenly I could feel a small hand with a soft touch holding the back of my body.

"Scar..." Vi said staring at my back.

"Ooh...don't worry it's a wound I got a long time ago during the war." I said and turned my body forward.

Then her face turned red quickly, she covered her face with the bath robe I gave her a moment ago.

"H-hey cover your body now!" She said in a surprised tone.

"Do you like looking at my body that much..." I said as I removed the bath robe from her face with a sly smile.

She then hit me with the bath robe and I laughed while wearing the bath robe.

'This is what I want...I can't bear to see her tears flow like earlier. ' I said in my mind.

After funnily arguing with her for quite some time, I opened my bath robe and got into the flower bath. Vi just about to undress herself.

She undressed herself from sheet to sheet. Finally I could see her skin, her fair white skin and body shape that increased my passion to touch her. She looked embarrassed but started walking to get into the flower bath with me. I just pretend not to see anything.

"D-do you want me to rub your back?" Vi said as her face turned red.

"Sure." I answered her.

Then after a few minutes of soaking, we got out of the flower bath. I sat in the chair that was there and turned my back to Vi. I saw that there was a back scrubbing sponge next to her but she insisted on using both of her hands only. She put the shampoo in her palm and spread it all over my back. Her hands feel great...

suddenly, her hands slide on my abs and rub them too.

"Hmm.." I made a sound

"Okay that's enough." I said holding both of her hands.

Then I poured water into the soap bubbles on my body and left while hiding my face which looked very red right now. I then excused myself and left her in the bathroom.

"What does she think she's doing...? What do I want to say to Lord Alazuir if I do something to his daughter??" I mumbled to myself as my right hand patted my pounding chest.

My body now smells like flowers and feels quite hot...

To be continue...
