Kapitel 28: Markings
"Shall we go to bed, my queen?" Tyrell asked Yuna.
"Wait, you will stay with my sister but not your husband?" Joe asked.
"Yes, Tyrell made a good point." Yuna said. "I need to be protected and she can provide it."
"I can protect you as well!" Joe demanded.
Yuna just stared blankly at the demon lord for several moments. Until finally she turned back to Tyrell and spoke. "Let's go to your room Tyrell. I am tired, it has been a stressful day to say the least."
Tyrell bows to the demon lord and then leads Yuna to her room. Leaving Elvin and the demon lord alone.
"Elf tell me what I did wrong." Joe said.
"Yuna is a very proud strong woman." Elvin explained. "You are expecting too much, you just met her and she just met you. I know you are already married, but you are still strangers. You are going to have to win her over, she isn't going to love you just because you command it. That's not the kind of woman she is."
"There is wisdom in your words elf." Joe replied. "Okay, starting tomorrow I will start trying to win her heart."
"Can I ask why you like her so much?" Elvin asked. "It's all just so sudden."
"Having been in her mind, it is like I have known her my whole life." Joe explained. "It's not just her past, her actions in the present let me know she is the one as well. I dare say there is no woman on this planet quite like her. She just intrigues me so."
"Well, it does sound like you like her." Elvin said.
"I do not wish to speak anymore about it elf." Joe said. "I will be retiring to my quarters now. I have a lot of planning that I need to do." The demon king left as he said those words. Leaving Elvin all alone in the hallway.
"I wonder if the kitchen will still make me dinner." Elvin asked herself. "I never got to eat." She complained as her stomach growled.
Meanwhile Yuna and Tyrell had arrived at Tyrell's room. The room was large and spacious. There was a king sized bed with a canopy above it. The walls were of an aged wood and the floors were black stone with a large red patterned rug in the center of the room. Tyrell had a large wardrobe and a few chests along the wall. At the far end of the room was a door that led to another room. "My queen, there is a private bath attached to my room. Feel free to use it before you retire tonight." Tyrell said.
"Oh that's nice." Yuna said. "In my world everyone had private baths, but this is the first I have seen one in this world."
"It was the demon lord's idea." Tyrell said. "Something about protecting my virtue."
"Do demons even care about that kind of thing?" Yuna asked. "I didn't think they did."
"No they don't." Tyrell answered. "We do like to bathe though, normally it isn't a private affair as modesty isn't something demons value."
"Come to think about it, the goblins had a nice bath." Yuna said. "Never really thought about why, but now I guess you explained it."
"Ha!" Tyrell laughed. "Essentially, everything above a demon beast loves to be clean. We demon's are not a dirty race as some humans would like believe."
"Okay, I am going to take my bath now then." Yuna said. "Is there a place in there for me to put my clothes or do I strip in here?"
"You should just strip here and hand me those abominations you call clothing." Tyrell said. "Leather bikini armor with black under cloth is no way for the queen of demons to dress."
"I paid good coins for these though." Yuna said, upset to have wasted money. "I mean I hate the bikini as well, but still I paid for it. I can't just destroy it."
"You can and you will." Tyrell said. "You don't need to worry about currency anymore. You are queen. You need to dress like one. So give me that rubbish and I will have you a new outfit ready by the time you exit the bath."
"If you insist." Yuna said as she reluctantly stripped and handed her clothes over to Tyrell. "I hope you at least have warm water." She said as she turned to enter the bathroom. This gave Tyrell a perfect view of the marking on Yuna's back.
"My queen." Tyrell said, stopping Yuna from entering the bath. "How long have those marks been on your back?"
"Umm, we noticed them last night in the goblin village." Yuna answered. "Why do you know something about them?"
"Plenty, but that is a tale for another time." Tyrell said. "Let's just say I am extremely surprised that a human has them. I know that is vague and cryptic, but I promise I will explain more later. For now just take your bath and give me an hour to get you a new outfit."
"Fine." Yuna sighed. "I was really hoping for some answers. I guess as long as you tell me later that's fine. Talk to you in an hour then." Yuna said as she entered the bathroom and shut the door behind her.
Tyrell then ran straight to the demon lord's room and knocked frantically on his door.
"Oh did you decide to come sleep with your new husband after all?" He said through the door while he made his way to open it. When he opened it he found his sister instead of his wife. "Oh what do you need, sister? Is something the matter?"
"It is the queen." Tyrell said.
"Is something wrong?!" Joe shouted as he prepared to bolt out of the door towards his new wife.
Tyrell put her hand on his chest to stop him. "No, she is not hurt." Tyrell said. "It's just as she entered the bath, I got a good look at her back."
"What's wrong?" Joe was getting worried.
"She has the same markings as you!" Tyrell answered.
