Herald of Steel

Miss Linda would sneakily go back to her room only after dusk had fallen, when the state of her slightly crumpled dress would not be easily noticed in the dim, soft candle lightning.

And she would leave Alexander with an unforgettable memory, to the point he would feel a bit reluctant to see her go.

He would not get to taste this great delicacy at least for the foreseeable future.

The nostalgia was to the point that in honor of the memory, he even refused Lady Nanazin's advances that night, and chose to reminisce fondly about the day's activities.

He recalled how he had chuckled while the woman got on top of him during the second round, "I thought you said your front hole hurts too much?"

"Heh! Who said anything about the front?"

The lady would curve her eyes in the most sexy way possible before very flashily lifting her hips and impaling herself on the rear hole in one single go.

'Ahhhhh! 'She's definitely not a virgin there!'

The way her pink hole opened its entrance and swallowed his gigantic tool was more than enough to reveal its secrets to Alexander.

But he did not get to ask the lady about it because the clenching and twisting he was feeling from back there soon took over his attention and when Miss Linda shouted,

"Ahhh! Play with my pussy! I feel so empty there!"

He began to concentrate teasing the overflowing garden in front of him, pinching and tugging the soft lips into a bright red color.

Miss Linda howled in pleasure from that, letting her excitedly jump up and down his pole in search of more.

In this way, the insatiable woman would squeeze Alexander dry three more times, leaving the man nearly shriveled up!

Perhaps that was also why he decided to go straight to bed that right, much to the other lady's annoyance.

...….

"I'm sorry that it took so long to meet, my lady!"

Alexander would meet with Lady Miranda the next morning in his study, finding the plump lady quite frosty in her demeanor.

"No! I'm sure you had many important matters to attend to my lord! What is used up little old me to you?" The anger in her voice made the words appear almost red to Alexander.

And in Lady Miranda's mind, she had every right to be like this

She had been looking for an audience with Alexander for days, wanting to discuss how to split up their spoils of victory, yet he kept constantly ghosting her.

Whereas as his closest ally, she should have been his first priority.

"..." Alexander only lightly smiled at the angry outburst, before subtly turning his gaze down to the lady's swollen belly.

The sight caused a complicated feeling to rise inside him.

The baby inside belonged to Lady Miranda and her late husband, as admitted by the lady herself during the initial signs of her conception,

"I did not want to conceive another child till Marcus came of age. But after he… left, we decided to try. And the gods have answered!"

She had a motherly glow as she chimed this.

But although it was very good news for her, Alexander thought it complicated his plans for her.

A widow with no child was far easier to ally with.

But Alexander had no idea of this as Lady Miranda was quite plump and hid the growing life using heavy, layered winter clothing

So by the time Alexander noticed, the turkey was already too far done.

'Well let's hope it's not a boy!'

And as he scanned it again now, he could only pray this, for he did not want to deal with the two sisters going at each other once again.

Alexander would at last bring his mind back to the pouting lady, and producing an apologetic nod, chime,

"Indeed, I have neglected you, my lady. I should have met with you first. It was my mistake and for that, I apologize." This sincere bow and show of remorse was quite unexpected for the waiting Lady Miranda and it softened her countenance by quite a lot.

She appeared to sense that Alexander was being true here.

While Alexander, noticing this chink, quickly added,

"The reason I chose to meet with the Heeats first was because I was advised by some of my noble officers to do so. They passed me a message during their interrogation some of the officers saying that some Heeat representative wanted to meet me in secret.

There were some things they wanted to discuss that were too inconvenient for them to write on paper. Hehe… you know what I mean right my lady? A ducal family like them could never officially agree or admit many things. They have a reputation to hold."

Of course,, this was mostly nonsense, but it was sprinkled with enough truth that the relatively young lady, who did not know all the ins and outs of the situation was unable to find any major faults.

She only angrily thought those 'military officers' that Alexander had thrown out as scapegoats were being too pedantic, sticking their noses where it does not belong.

Without them, she could have been the first

"What did you discuss?"

But given it was already done, she then became more focused on what Alexander was talking about behind her back, adding a bit sulkily,

"Don't you think you should have had me in that meeting as well? Whatever that family does affects me as well!"

Towards this 'chastisement', Alexander scoffed internally, 'Heh! You think you still matter to me? You are a second rate force! Whatever we decide, you have to follow!'

He certainly did not think Lady Miranda was qualified to sit at the table with him and sneered at the naive woman's thoughts.

But externally, in much contrast to his true arrogant attitude, he was much kinder, once again submissively nodding his head,

"Yes, yes, it was my mistake! It was just that the Heeat delegation wanted a single audience with me. And they seemed mostly interested in discussing trade deals with me.

They had apparently come hearing of all the new things I had. But given the recent wars and how the successor of their house died fighting against me, they were a bit apprehensive about so openly shaking hands with the enemy."

Alexander was not blatantly lying here- Lord Kite did come to discuss trade with him, only it involved prisoners of war and slaves, but his produce.

"....." But Lady Miranda did not know this, neither did she comment upon learning what Alexander said although she did purse her lips as if still feeling a bit peeved.

On one hand, she was glad nothing 'important' had been discussed while she was absent, but at the same time, she found herself hoping that would have discussed her situation too.

Alexander sensed this paradoxical feeling too, which is why he quickly added with a bit of mysterious flare,

"Of course, as we were talking, your matter also came up at some point naturally. And I am glad to inform you that the Heeat family has expressed strong conviction in honoring their ten year treaty. We even discussed ways to prevent conflicts from flaring up around your and Miss Linda's border."

This was good… no.. great news and it quickly made Lady Miranda's eyes light up.

Securing her borders was perhaps her biggest concern.

She might not be any great commander, but she at least knew where her greatest vulnerability lay.

"Oh what did you discuss exactly? Why did you not tell me sooner?" Lady Miranda hence extended her head excitedly, her eyes looking both expectant, but also a bit guilty.

If she had known this, she would not have been so rude to the man.

'Because we did not do any such thing!' While Alexander lampooned inside, his lips twitching a bit at having produced a bigger than planned lie.

But given he had already said it, and what the consequences would be if he backed down, he could only go with it.

He thus tried to be as vague as possible without sounding too insincere,

"I… we have not worked out the exact details… but one of the suggested conditions was restricting the number of troops each side has on the island. Such as… limiting our garrison to only at most 5,000."

This got a great grin from Lady Miranda as her nights were constantly filled with worry about the 10,000 strong navy Lord Castell had just sitting out her harbor.

If they decided to make a sudden attack using under the cover of darkness… Lady Miranda did not dare to imagine what would happen if they somehow succeeded.

She thus became very excited and her enthusiasm was only dampened upon learning Alexander was still only on the talking phase, with nothing concrete determined.

"Do not worry my lady, I will not anyone destroy this hard earned peace. These talks will succeed. And peace will last… at least for the discussed time."

Her mood only improved upon hearing Alexander's gentle reassuring tone.

Of course in reality there were no talks and the real reason why Alexander was so confident because he intended to shift Miss Linda and Lord Castell's attention elsewhere.

But he did not think Lady Miranda needed to know this.
