Chapter 425 - Reece - The Light Magic Ball Part 2 (VOLUME 3)

Reece
~~
I did not just hear what I thought I did. She did not just tell me that I should dance with other women so that she could dance with other men. Did she not know that something like that would make me murderously angry? I was more likely to kill every man here than to let them touch her. What the h.e.l.l was she thinking?
"It will be fine Reece. I will dance with four or five of them while you do the same with the women. It"s diplomatic, and what we should be doing." She whispered into my ear again.
"Except we"re supposed to be on vacation and not working." I growled back to her in a whisper.
"I don"t think that a royal could ever truly be on vacation. I am sorry Reece, please bear with it for just a little bit."
She leaned up and kissed my cheek quickly before turning back to the man who had asked her to dance.
"I would love to, thank you."
As I watched, another man just danced away with my mate. He spun and twirled away with her like he was trying to reenact some stupid scene from a movie; only to him that was how they really danced here. This was bulls.h.i.+t.
"h.e.l.lo there, King Reece. Might I have this dance since you are free." A woman asked me, and I said yes without even looking at her. I glanced at her from time to time, that was about it. Other than what was necessary to make sure I followed the steps I didn"t even look at the woman I was dancing with. I saw that she had bubblegum pink hair and her dress was the color of cotton candy, that was it. I didn"t notice anything else aside from that.
When that dance was over, I watched as that a.s.shat who danced with my wife took her hand and kissed the back of it like he was a suitor vying for her hand. I was going to kill him. But she was immediately being courted by another dips.h.i.+t, and I had to watch to make sure he didn"t try anything with her.
The next woman that danced with me had hair so bright orange that I thought it was made from a construction worker"s vest or something. That was all that I saw of her. I didn"t notice the color of her dress; h.e.l.l I wouldn"t have even noticed if she was f.u.c.king naked! I was too p.i.s.sed off about the men trying to steal my mate from me.
This happened again, and again, and again until she had danced five songs with five different desperate a.s.sholes. Finally, it was the time when I could tell the bimbo squad that was following me around that I was done with them.
"I apologize ladies, but I am going to have a seat with my wife." There were no groans that came from them; there was just a low sigh.
"Yeah, we know. We were just happy that we could get a few dances in. You are a devoted husband, we know that. However, you are a catch so we just wanted to be able to brag that we danced with you." That had been the bubblegum girl. I think I danced with her twice. "Have fun with your mate." She called out and giggled as she and the others hurried away.
I caught Trinity around the waist and pulled her against me. I was desperate to show them all that she was mine, and no one else was going to touch her again. I might even need to remind her of that later too.
"Reece." She squealed in surprise and delight. "What are you doing?"
"I"m showing them that you"re mine."
"They already know that." She laughed.
"Really? Does that f.u.c.k face that kissed your hand know that? Just let me keep holding you, because if I let you go, I will end up going to kill him. And like you said, we don"t want a feud. You can, however, wash his residue off of your hand. Let me find a strong drink at the bar, and I will disinfect it for you."
I started to drag her with me to the bar, and I heard her laughing as I did so.
"Reece, stop this."
"Excuse me Sir, I need a gla.s.s of your strongest alcohol please."
"Right away."
"Reece?" She was still laughing at me as the man behind the bar handed me the drink.
"Thank you, can I get a gla.s.s of just ice and a napkin as well."
"Certainly."
Once I had everything I spilled just a little of the liquor over the back of her hand and let it drip away. After that I took the ice and rubbed it over the area that I had cleaned; it was heated from my touch and her body heat so it melted and started to wash away the disinfecting liquid right away. After I dried it with the napkin, I pulled her hand to my lips and kissed the place where the a.s.shat"s germs had nearly infected her.
"There, all better. I can"t have someone else"s kiss on you now, can I?"
"You can be an idiot at times." She shook her head and laughed, but she leaned forward at the same time and cupped my cheek as she placed a gentle kiss on my lips. "I love you."
"Careful there, Little Bunny, I might just lose control if you keep flirting with me." After I winked and smirked suggestively, she slapped me on the shoulder with a laugh. I guess she didn"t find it as funny as I did.
Following that incident, we talked with Glory and Valerian for a bit, danced, talked among our friends and family, who all thought the scene with me cleaning her hand, and the way that I acted like a lost dog when she danced with other men, were just the funniest things ever.
I was in a hurry to end the night though. I wasn"t lying to myself or her when I said that I was going to lose control. I think we will just leave Reagan and Rika with the others for tonight. It was time for Mommy and Daddy to have another night of peace.
