Chapter 127: A Night with Islinda (R-18)
Islinda walked in, dressing in her fancy white coat, making her look like an angel.
"Sorry to bete," she said.
Her face was covered with a thin transparent veil, like a pride in her long awaited moment. James gave her a long, inspecting nce, watching her from head to bottom.
"Come, sit here beside me," he said, inviting her to sit beside him on this long,fy couch that he was sitting on.
She moved in slow steps, until reaching him, sat on the couch, while her coat was still on her.
James didn''t say anything, as he stretched his hand, uplifting the veil over her pretty face, giving himself a moment to enjoy her shyness which made her even more beautiful.
Then he kissed her, so softly on the lips, while his hands worked smoothly to remove her coat off.
The night ended up with the two lovers staying in each other''s arms. When the daylight kicked in, they were forced to leave, while their eyes were sending many unspoken words, and still unquenched desires of both.
James moved, slightly jumping here and there during his happy morning, like a childing from a long dreamt of vacation. The first thing that met him when he entered themanding unit was the stern face of Luna, whose face told everything about how she truly was feeling right now.
"Good morning, leader, have you slept wellst night?"
Her icy words were harsh, but James was in a very good mood today. "I dunno, you might tell tonight yourself," he said, teasing her, reminding her that tonight was their night together to y off.
"I don''t think so," she regretfully replied, which made James look in surprise towards her, thinking she had a cold feet at thest moment. "That ambassador sent a message, and he had less than half a day to arrive here," she said, which made him realize why she said thest words.
"We can y after meeting with him," he tried to console her.
"Sigh, I know these meetings, this would take longer than you think," she boringly said.
"You said you know these meetings, have you attended a meeting like this before?" James asked with some interest.
"If you mean with the ambassador, then yes, I have met him twice," she said, "once when he came here to the previous king, and the other when I was with my previous master."
Her words rmed James at once, who turned to sit on his usual seat here, while she,zily, sat over him. this time he wasn''t this shy man, so his hands moved, without hesitation, to sense special ces of her, making the look on her face get softened.
"What did these meetings were about?" he asked.
"I don''t recall the first one so clearly, as it happened ten years ago, but the second meeting just happened one year ago," she said, while she started to feel some hotnessing all over her body, "in this meeting,that ambassador asked for the right to mine a certain ore from one of thes that belonged to us."
"Ores?"James was surprised to hear this, as he stopped what he was ying at, while asking: "What ores?"
As he stopped, she finally regained her control over her body, despite feeling some numbness in some ces. "I didn''t recall the name, but this ore was described as the godly ore, and the king at then asked for high price in exchange for the mining rights," she said, "the strange thing though that ambassador agreed without any objection, however the project stopped midway due to some problems on the ck market side."
Her words made the eyes of James widened, as he suddenly realized the reason for this visit of the ambassador. "Send a memo to Islinda, make here here now!"
His words were rapidly executed, while he returned to his seat, with his hands finding their way to Luna''s hidden treasures.
Islinda didn''t take longer than half an hour to be here, and once arrived, she was startled by the scene that weed her, but she regained herposure in no time.
"Do you know something called the godly ore?" James asked her without any hesitation, as he had been so curious about this ore.
"Godly ore? You mean Goldy Ore?" she suddenly eximed out in surprise, while her face was full of shock. James nodded in satisfaction, as he was sure if there was someone to know the details of this ore, Islinda would be that person.
"I don''t know if it''s Godly or Godly, but this ore is very precious, pretty rare, and extremely valuable," he said, as he didn''t trust the weak memory of Luna, who was now closing her eyes, enjoying the slow and rhythmic painful touches of his hands.
"It''s the Goldy Ore, and this ore can make empires rise or fall!" she said, before she felt something was odd, away from Luna''s position and expression, "Why are you asking me about it?"
"I think one of theses has that ore, and that ambassador ising here for it!"
Once he said it, her mouth opened and didn''t close up again, except after quite some time. she was extremely shocked, as this ore was considered as an emperor making, or an emperor killing ore.
"Are you sure about that?" she asked, with much anticipation to his answer.
"Yeah, Luna here said this ambassador came to the kingst year, asked him to dig for this mine, in exchange for a very generous price," he said, while gesturing to the about to copse Luna on hisp. "Do you think we should ask for more price, or fight for this ore?" he asked, the main question he had in mind right now.
"If there is such ore here, and that ambassador came to speak about it, then we can''t fight it. the forces behind that man wouldn''t tolerate our resistance, and we wouldn''t be able to resist them," she exined.
"So we can ask for more price," he said, sighing in regret, "what is this ore used for anyway?" he casually asked.
"It''s considered one of the highest forms of energy producers in the whole universe. Some also im it can recharge the lost energy of special individuals, some like you perhaps, or their artifacts," she said, and the more she spoke, the more stupefied he became, until she threw thest bomb in front of his face, simply like that.
"Did you say fix artifacts?" he asked.
"Yes, that''s what I heard back home, but I''m not sure about it," she said, slowly stressing on her uncertainty regarding this matter, after she noticed the strange reaction of his.
"Good, very good," he smiled, an evil smile that gave her the impression he was nning something bad, and big.
"Don''t we have thatst king in our custody?" he suddenly asked.
"Rigo had him, in hisrge cruiser," she said, "do you want to interrogate him?" she asked.
"Sure, why not?" he replied, while turning to order one of his main associates to contact Rigo now.
"Can I talk to him?" she said, suddenly stopping his hands from moving, "I need to act once I learn the location of the mines at least. If we have this kind of wealth, then we might at least extravagant some of it and store it for ourselves," she added, trying to convince him.
In fact she wanted to thank Rigo, and ask him for more help regarding dealing with Luna. She watched her reactions during James ying with her, and she was either exaggerating, or had a more sensitive part than her.
She wanted to find a way to eliminate her from James'' side, or else she would feel this threat all the time. Thinking of her, and recalling Rigo''sst help, she decided to seek again the cooperation of this old enemy, a new ally for her.
Rigo, on the other hand, was on his way to the expedition. He had his main five men under him, sitting in front of him, reading thetest report of the scouting cruisers they sent up ahead.
"So, this is the current state of this kingdom?" Rigo asked, looking towards his first lieutenant, called Gom.
"Yes, it''s thetest reports we just received, this kingdom is like a honeb, with a long and huge series ofs there, not only twenty as we previously assumed," Gom said, "theses are connected through wrapping holes, connecting vast stretch of space together, and making this kingdom can control all this with its minimal amount of forces," he added.
"This is quite an opportunity if used right," Rod, another lieutenant for Rigo said, "if we managed to sneak into thiswork of them, we can snatch many cruisers without knowing that. this would be a great chance for us," he said, while he was looking at everyone, waiting for their approval.
"That might work," Rigo said, but first we need to scan this whole ce, draw a map for it. such a huge stretch ofs, exceeding two hundred at the moment, isn''t easy to control."
