"What the hell?" Yumi shouted, grabbing several sheets to cover herself.
"Ilyss, we've got another one of the perverts who want to see you, damn it, I thought when you killed the last one they'd understand," the woman continued, clearly angry.
Dannep heard the words and quickly started running toward her room. "I'm not a pervert, I'm not a pervert," Dannep thought as she did her best to escape.
"God, what a nuisance, stay here. I'll handle it," Ilyss commented as she put her clothes back on and left the room.
Calmly, she focused her eyes in the direction Dannep had gone, pointing her hand that way.
Suddenly Dannep's body destabilized and she fell to the ground, she felt strange, if she wanted to move her right arm, her left one moved; if she wanted to move the right one, her left leg moved.
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die. No, no," Dannep struggled as she tried to move.
"Come on, I'm on my way to get you, you shouldn't despair, you're going to die anyway. Maybe I should hang your head in front of the castle so the others will listen," Ilyss said as she slowly walked toward Dannep.
"No, no, no, move," Dannep shouted to herself with force, and this time it was a complete success.
It was as if the effect had completely disappeared and she could escape.
"Good, I just have to...!"
Boom!
But before she could even get to her feet, a great force grabbed her by the neck and threw her to the ground.
It was Ilyss, who looked at her in surprise.
"Dannep? What the hell were you doing in front of my room?" the woman asked, loosening her grip slightly.
"I... I got lost, and I accidentally bumped into the table. It wasn't my intention to see or hear what you were doing, I... I'm not a pervert," she replied, completely flushed.
Ilyss's grip on her neck, along with the memories of the scene, didn't help at all; she felt like a kettle boiling with heat.
"Hahaha, come on Dannep, did you want to join us?" Ilyss asked in a flirtatious tone while maintaining a mischievous smile.
"No!" Dannep shouted, pushing her back, or at least trying to, since Ilyss barely moved.
In response, the queen held both of Dannep's hands and pinned them behind her back before leaning close to her ear.
"Don't think badly of me, I love you, Dannep. Yumi is just a pastime, but I can end my relationship with her if you wish. I can even kill her if you ask me to," she whispered before licking Dannep's ear and biting her hair.
"I won't fall into your dirty games, damn demon," Dannep thought, holding back her fury.
"No, Your Excellency, I have no interest in that. But I do have interest in something else."
"Come on, Dannep, this is the opportunity," she told herself, gathering some courage.
"Please, Ilyss, I know it's not proper, but I would like to learn how to use magic."
"Use magic? I thought you knew how to use it because of what happened earlier," Ilyss said, confused.
"What? What happened earlier?" Dannep asked, not knowing what she meant.
Ilyss raised an eyebrow and focused on Dannep's eyes, then let out a sigh before replying.
"Fine, I'll allow you to study and learn magic, but first I want something from you," the queen said, bringing her face close to Dannep's again and turning her toward her.
"Kiss me, I want you to kiss me this time," Ilyss said, looking into Dannep's eyes.
"Kiss her? Is she crazy? She just kissed Yumi and did that thing with her tongue between her legs, I don't want to kiss you."
Dannep's thoughts interfered, but she grabbed Ilyss by the neck and kissed her. Dannep knew her place, she was worth nothing, and kissing this woman after what she saw only confirmed it.
The experience was still new to Dannep, so she simply tried to press her lips together and that was it.
But what she thought would last only a few seconds extended, Ilyss was sliding her tongue together with hers and then biting her lips.
The force of her bite began to hurt Dannep, blood coming from them. She tried to alert Ilyss by hitting her on the back.
But she pressed her body against hers while Dannep was losing her breath. Ilyss held her hair and caressed her neck before pulling away.
"You... ahh, you... did it on purpose," Dannep said, blushing as she spoke breathlessly, having her lips covered in blood was the least of her concerns now.
She felt strange, she wanted to take a bath, she needed to take a bath right now.
In response, Ilyss stuck out her tongue, showing her own blood before speaking:
"To make sure I gave you permission, I needed your blood," she said, spitting Dannep's blood into her hand and drawing a sign with it.
"Oh Draykay create the position of the soul of the owner of this blood." After saying that, a purple fire spread across Ilyss's hand until all the blood disappeared.
"Don't worry, it's just a protection spell, I can't allow you to use your magic against me," the woman commented, savoring the rest of the blood left on her.
"I don't think I would be a problem, even if I learned every kind of magic in the world, my lady, you are the strongest," Dannep said.
Cynthia liked it when Dannep praised her; following this pattern, she decided to do the same with Ilyss.
But she did not change her expression and simply stood up:
"Permission granted, go to your room or you'll be tired for work tomorrow, unless you want to watch me have sex with Yumi all night, I could let you into my room if you wish."
Dannep, in response, turned her back to the woman. "Good night," she said coldly as she returned to her room.
As soon as she closed the door, she couldn't help putting her hands over her face and falling to the floor.
"No, no, God, Dannep stop thinking about that," she told herself, intertwining how Ilyss had held her a moment ago with the scene of Yumi and her playing together.
"I need to take a bath."
She went to the bathroom and set the water as cold as possible, she didn't care if she caught a cold, tomorrow she had to take a cold bath.
As she entered the bathtub, she felt her mind calm down. Having grown up in poverty, Dannep was used to cold water compared to comfortable warm water.
Without realizing it, she closed her eyes deeply, falling into a deep sleep.

"Dannep, my daughter, Dannep."
A woman's words enveloped Dannep's ears as she slowly opened her eyes.
But her shock was evident when, upon doing so, she found herself surrounded by water as if she were at the bottom of the sea.
Yet she wasn't drowning; in fact, it was as if she could breathe.
"Dannep, my daughter, you have finally awakened your magic."
The same voice from before spoke. Dannep decided to search for it with her gaze, finding a blurry figure in the distance.
It was a woman wrapped in a golden light with incredibly long hair, she was approaching her.
