章 732: Private audience with the Queen II

Ismael watched Aries move ever so slowly, peeling her back from the tub until she was sitting up in the middle of the tub. Her back was facing him. "I won't have much time later since many kings had set foot in the Mainland and I have to greet them one by one."

When he caught her planting her hands on rims, Ismael lowered his eyes as she stood bare. Aries extended her arms, and as if on cue, the maid standing on the side approached her. The servant helped her slip her arms inside the robe, sauntering away after fulfilling their duty, while Aries tied the front part of the robe.
