The Blood Of A Witch

AnYuan was enjoying herself while she's was waiting for the king to come.

The king has just finished his bath; he quickly went to the next room to have breakfast with AnYuan.

The king sat down for breakfast and he was looking at AnYuan. He has his breakfast slowly, while AnYuan was drinking her coffee. No word comes out from both parties. It was again an awkward situation.

"Hmm... I see that you have done." The demon lord breaks the silence in the room.

"Ohh.. yes, hmmm thank you for the lovely breakfast " AnYuan wipe her lisp with a piece of cloth.

"Do you like it?" the king slightly gazes at her face expiration.

"I like it very much, thank you" AnYuan casualty answer his question.

"Hmmm... now go, take a bath," he pauses his action "The water in the bathroom is still worm." he looks at AnYuan reaction.

"Huh...what? A bath? Are you crazy? Are you asking me to take my bath here?" AnYuan again was surprised at her own reaction, and she quickly covers her mouth as she knows that she was a bit disrespectful to the demon king.

'Ohh... you are a crazy pig! What are you saying?' she whispers to herself again.

"Yes, a bath, and yes in my bathtub. The maids will prepare for you; your cloth will be there. Go now, you are too smelly, I can't discuss any matter with you if you were like this." His said with his cold tone of voice and look at AnYuan with a smirk on his face.

AnYuan slowly when down from the chair and run along to the corridor. Pass by the bedroom, then the walk-in closet and straight to the big bathroom-suit.

The maid has prepared for her the bath water, AnYuan look around to see if anyone was around, luckily no one was there anymore. She took off her cloth then quickly when into the bathtub.

'Humm....this is nice. I do need a bath anyway. My body is kind of sticky anyway' she thought to herself.

AnYuan enjoys her bath, is much better than her bathtub in her courtyard. The water is warm and nice, it even smells nice too. The smell of peach blossom. She loves peach, is her most favorite aroma.

'When did he put the flower essences in the bathtub' AnYuan was puzzled, but she doesn't think too much of it, and quickly take her bath. Even though she wanted to stay longer in the tub, but she has to forget about it.

'Too bad, is not your bathtub ok, AnYuan!' She thought to herself.

Quickly she washes, and when she was done, she notices a set of clothing hung on a wooden dryer. The maid has put it there before she arrived. No one was around, she quickly changes herself with the new clotting. The color is soft green with white lace around it.

She turns around and found a big mirror nearby, she looks at herself and even giggles slightly. Is shows her ladylike softness. AnYuan was pleased with the new outfit it fit her well and she turns around in front of the mirror.

'Stunning is it? Or should I say, like a princess?' AnYuan giggles again as she talks to herself.

"Princess my foot laaa!..... Stop dreaming will you!!" AnYuan replies to her own question and starts to laugh again as she finds it's funny.

"Miss Li AnYuan, you do look like a Princess, and a pretty one too" a palace maid was standing behind her and she smiles at her reaction.

"Oh...my!! You stutter me just now," AnYuan was surprised, "When did you come in?"

"Miss Li, I was standing here for a while, you just didn't notice me," the maid answers her politely. As the maid doesn't want to get in trouble with her, because she knows very well, that's AnYuan now has his master favor on her. The maid, only node to her as she escort her back to the bedchamber.

(.....)

The king bedchamber

The demon king was sitting on his desk and reading his doc.u.ment. Then he only stares at AnYuan as she enters his bedchamber, never blinked his eyes and he never leaves her off his sight.

Well, she is a beautiful She human. He can see that her face was blushing again. His heart slightly beat faster, and a small lightning inter his body.

There was a light fragrance on the young girl's body. It seems very familiar to him. As a matter of fact, she looks so adorable with such a cute appearance that makes him... feel like.... he has known her for ages! She makes him remember someone that he has long missed so much. His Queen!!

AnYuan felt much better after the bath, and now she was standing in front of the demon king, and yes, the king only stares at her with no word come out. She felt a bit embarrass and is another awkward situation again.

'Dam it why is he making me feel like this!' she bit her lower lip. To break the silence...

"Lord Demon, I see that you are much better now. But you still need to take a few more of the antidote if you want to get it all out of your body system" AnYuan said casually and she looks into the king eyes without bilking her eyes.

"Fine, bring me the antidote," saying with his calm voice.

AnYan quickly went to the small table next to the bed, she initially put it there the last time she treads the king's sickness. She still has a few of it. "Lord Demon, this one is even bitter," AnYuan whispers to him, as she passes the antidote and bowl of water to him.

The king took his antidote with one gulp, still staring at her and pass it back to her

AnYuan was dumbfounded, "Don't you have taste, I mean the antidote is very.... very....bitter?"

"I do have taste, is just that bitterness has been part of my life for a long time. I have long forgotten how is the taste of sweetness? " the king suddenly quiets down and the slight smile to her.

"Haa..ahh.... really?" AnYuan rolled her eyes up and she felt a bit annoying by him. She steps back tow step behind and bows to him and she was waiting for his next order.

"Aaa... Lord Demon," AnYuan pause her word,

"Yes, you wanted to ask something from me?" the king was sitting straight on his writing desk looking at AnYuan.
