Chapter 205 She’s Flirting

“I would ask how the horny couple are, but I don’t think I want to know the details

really.” Lexi grimaced as she linked her arm through Bartholomew’s and they made

their way inside.

Bartholomew chuckled and patted her hand.

“They’re holed up in the Royal Quarters so I doubt you’ll see too much of them over

the next few days. Whilst Ann is in heat, the doors to their wing are sealed and their

guards are posted outside the entrance to the wing rather than their bedroom, for

reasons that I’m sure you’ll understand”

Lexi smirked as she snorted.

“Well, I suppose listening to a free s*x show to get the juices flowing isn’t everyone’s

idea of a good time..

“Lexi!” the sound of two voices shouting out at the same time echoed in the corridor

around them. She laughed at both the low warning in her father’s tone, and the

slightly panicked disapproval from Allen as they both looked at her in admonishment.

“What?” She shrugged nonchalantly, “I’m not wrong. You’re both acting as if I implied

in some way that it was my type of thing…” she continued with a smirk as she turned

to look over her shoulder and eyed Allen with a wicked glint in her eye.

“You know, if that’s what you’re into..” she teased as she wriggled her eyebrows

suggestively in Allen’s direction. The look of horror on his face as he glanced

frantically at her father and spluttered in objection at her teasing was completely worth

every second of just how irate he would be with her later.

Perhaps having a fated mate wasn’t so bad after all, Lexi thought smugly to herself as

Bartholomew cleared his throat awkwardly.

“Well, I’m not sure this is how I anticipated the conversation going, but we’ll steer

away from that now if you don’t mind, Lexi, dear,” Bartholomew interjected before she

escalated the situation further. “We certainly have a lot to catch up on before we

proceed with gaining Lord Brarthroroz’s input on the creature sequestered away in the

bowels of the Enclave.”

“Am I to expect the usual political intrigue and shameless ploys to snatch power from

those who hold it rightfully?” Lord Brarthroroz rumbled with a tinge of sarcasm in his

tone.

“You are as astute as I remember, my Lord. Nothing has changed much since your

last visit.” Bartholomew replied with a wry grin.

“Does it ever really change when it comes to the monarchy and their advisors?” Lord

Brarthroroz snorted as he exchanged a knowing look with Bartholomew.

“Unfortunately not, my lord.” Bartholomew sighed and continued, “But let us not talk

about this in the corridors. The walls have ears and it is best that we are discreet in

most subjects when we walk openly like this. At least there is a measure of privacy in

my office.”

After walking in silence for what seemed like the longest time and ascending the

sweeping staircase part way, they pulled to a stop in front of a set of ornate doors.

Bartholomew turned to them with a smile and gestured towards the doors.

“These are the assigned quarters for you all. You may take your pick of rooms in there

as this wing is currently vacant and usually reserved for visiting diplomats. It seemed

only appropriate that you be assigned the finest quarters that were available as you

are, technically speaking, a visiting ruler, and you are indeed assisting with diplomatic

relations.” Bartholomew beamed.

“After you are all refreshed and settled, do feel free to join me in my office and I will

explain the predicament we currently find ourselves in. There will be guards posted

outside this door shortly, and an omega will wait outside to escort you there.”

Allen nodded as Lexi slipped her arm from Bartholomew’s and pushed open the door

without hesitation, waving goodbye to Bartholomew and making herself at home

instantly as she began opening every door along the hallway and inspecting the

rooms within. Allen thanked Bartholomew before he followed Lexi inside, sighing

internally and chuckling quietly at Orvar gushing about Lexi’s sounds of contentment

and excitement as she gleefully explored the rooms beyond.

One thing was for certain, Lexi was certainly going to keep him on his toes with her

antics, and he had a feeling that as much as he would be uncomfortable at first,

eventually, he would learn to accept it.

He walked slowly towards her, his steps deliberate as he watched her fling open yet

another door and squeal in delight before rushing inside, disappearing momentarily

before her head re-emerged around the comer of the doorway as she grinned widely

at him. “Found it!” She announced happily as Allen’s face split into a smile that

mirrored her own.

Seeing her so happy and excited over such a little thing made his heart feel as though

it was about to burst, and having Orvar prancing around like a lunatic inside of him

was not doing anything to subdue the unfamiliar feeling inside him.

He wanted to go back in time and beat some sense into himself for fighting against his

attraction to her for so long, knowing full well that he had been responsible for missing

out on potentially hundreds of little moments like this, purely because of his own

prejudice and fears.

“Oi! Beta boy!” Lexi’s impatient voice came drifting down the corridor. “Did you hit your

head? Why are you looking all spacey like that? Do I need to have you committed

somewhere? Or did I finally manage to make you lose your mind?” She teased

mercilessly.

Allen cleared his throat awkwardly and could feel his ears heat up a little as he

realized she had caught him grinning at her like a fool. “No reason.” He answered as

he closed the distance between them a little uncertainly.

Would she even want to share a room with him? Was it too soon? Would he have

more work to do in winning her affection? His doubts swam in his head as he

approached her but Lexi’s eyes shone with a mischievous light as her arm appeared

in the corridor, and she crooked a finger, beckoning him towards her with a teasing

grin.

“Come and tell me what you think of our room.” She smirked as she disappeared

inside as soon as she had finished speaking. Alien’s heart rate began to pick up

speed.

‘She’s flirting! She’s flirting Allen! Get in there!’ Orvar squealed excitedly. ‘Shut up

Orvar… you’re making me nervous…’ Allen snapped back, willing his heart to slow

down. The last thing he wanted to be was a hot sweaty mess when trying to show

LExi that he was the perfect match for her. ‘Well, you’re making me nervous that

you’re going to screw this up as well you absolute d’*k! Get in there!’ Orvar roared in

response. Allen swallowed a little nervously as he gingerly stepped through the

doorway to see Lexi standing in front of the enormous bed with a coy look on her face.

“So? What do you think?” she asked in an innocent voice as Allen moved further into

the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

“Well, I certainly didn’t think I’d ever see the day that you asked for my opinion on Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

anything. You being so independent and all.” Allen answered with a smirk.

‘THAT IS NOT HOW YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO FLIRT BACK ALLEN!’ Orvar roared in

anguish inside him, almost positive that Allen was going to screw this up as well.

Lexi smirked as she lowered herself onto the bed and leaned backward, looking up at

him through her eyelashes with a heated gaze. “I mean… I could find out for myself

and make my own decision as to just how suitable this bed is for me… but it’s always

more fun with someone else … don’t you think?” She teased as she slowly moved

backward and lifted her legs to the edge of the bed.

Allen’s nerves seemed to disappear instantly as his eyes darkened, and as he leaped

towards the bed Lexi squealed in delight as Allen seemed intent on giving her exactly

what she wanted.
