Pleasing A Husband

In the night, Seren rested in Drayce's arms and spoke. "It's been a while since Oriana left as Lady Ria to meet Prince Arlan. I wonder how they are doing?"

"My Queen, are you genuinely worried or just looking for gossip?" Drayce inquired.

"Umm, maybe both," she replied.

Just then, suddenly, all the lamps everywhere turned off, making Seren stiffen. "What is this? Dray, it's not you."

Drayce used his powers, and then all the lamps around them turned on. "It was Arlan."

"Hmm? Why did he use his powers all of a sudden? Aren't they in the garden of their guest mansion?" she asked.

"There must be a need. My Queen, will you focus on me instead of their affair? I assure you Oriana will return unharmed. Arlan would not do anything inappropriate with her or take advantage of her. He has moral lines," Drayce assured, knowing his wife's love for gossip was costing him her attention.
