..........................................................royal castle, king study..................................................................

Dante signed another paper that he suspected was completely useless, how could it not be when they never stopped coming no matter how many of them he signed. Dante had fought demons and monster most peoples couldn't even fathom and yet he had a strong feeling his downfall would be a stack of papers, the bane of any rulers. This enemy was relentless, it had no weaknesses, it was impossible to reason with and no form of negotiation would work either.

Paperwork was the greatest foe king Dante had ever faced and his right hand had betrayed him yet again, just when the king thought he had finally prevailed against his nemesis, Melik had brought more. That is when a light shined through the darkness in the form of a knock at the door, his saving grace, after all, a king could not neglect, more so at this precise moment than any other, his subjects.

"Come in!" Dante invited unable to keep the glee he was feeling at being '****' to put his paperwork on hold. When the door opened Dante recognized the iconic templar armor and her owner Miss Pantaghast.

"Ah Cassandra, please have seat." Said the king gesturing to a chair in front of his desk. "What can I do for you today?" He said with a warm smile.

Cassandra was always a little uncomfortable at the king's warm and inviting attitude toward her, she didn't know why he was singling her out this way. She was part of the church, an organization how had for all intent and purposes tried to take control of the kingdom through the merchant's guilds, and yet here he was, treating her like she was part of his family. Which made what she was about to do harder.

"Thank you, your highness." The veteran commander said formally while taking the seat.

"How many times do I have to tell you Dante is fine, Cass? I hate titles and you know it." The king said in exasperation.

"I'm afraid many more times, sir," Cassandra said seriously not able to keep her frustration out of her voice. She was taken aback by the coldness of his response.

"Fine 'commander', have it your way."The king said leaving any of his previous warmth out of his voice.

Cassandra's eyes widened at the display realizing how her attitude could be perceived. Her king had gone out of his way to make her feel comfortable and welcome but she had thrown it back in his face, her insecurity had got the better of her and now the person she respected the most was looking at her with disappointment.

"I ... I'm sorry Da ... Dante, I just don't understand why you're singling me out like this. I am a templar commander, my position has the second in command of the capital demon hunter guild branch was basically extorted from you and not to mention the church action. It makes me feel uncomfortable because I don't understand why, why me? why take my side in the dispute with chairman Trek? Why ask me for private sparring sessions?" Ranted the templar actually out of breath and widened eyes surprised by her own outburst.

' What the hell is wrong with me?' She thought to herself while seeing her king look at her with what seemed like amusement. She was mortified but things became much worse when they were interrupted by a third person entering the study and answering the question for Dante.

"Oh, that's easy, my dear husband always has been attracted to strong and beautiful women. He also knows the difference between the group someone is part of and their individual worthiness. In other words, Dante finds you worthy and probably wants to plow that tight, toned, delicious and perfect little ass of yours." The revealed queen informed crudely and devouring the commander's body with lustful eyes. Cassandra felt like her head should blow out steam out of her ears right now, she couldn't believe her queen would say such a thing. Apparently the king was as lost as the commander on his queen comment.

"ELIANA! What the hell?" Dante exclaimed clearly embarrassed by his queen comment before turning to the templar commander.

"I'm sorry Cassandra, the queen" he giving a furious look toward Eliana " is mad at me and clearly wants to embarrass me for some reason. I apologize for her completely inappropriate behavior toward you, commander." Said the king flushed with anger and a healthy dose of embarassement.

Cassandra had come here to inform her king that she had sent a team after the young prince without asking permission first, now she was caught in the lover's quarrel and apparently used as a weapon by the queen. Saying commander Pantaghast was completely out of her element was the understatement of this century, not only the position but being from the church, talk of sexual depravity in such crude words was playing havoc in the poor woman mind.

"So you don't find the lovely commander attractive? That is quite rude of you honey, not to mention disturbing. I hope you still like women, not that there is anything wrong with liking men but you're a far too good fuck to be lost to the women population, it would be a tragedy." Eliana said fainting shock at the revelation.

"I... I'll come back later y..your highness" Cassandra said trying to get up and leave but was stopped by the queen.

"Oh no, you stay right here my delicious little warrior." Eliana said in a sexy voice putting her hands on the commander's shoulders massaging them while preventing her to get up at the same time.

" Eliana, what are you doing? what's gotten into you?" Dante said now thoroughly confused. He tought she was still mad at him about John's departure but this wasn't 'mad Eliana'.

This was playfull and usually very, very dirty Eliana. And although Dante liked dirty Eliana a lot, this was the worst moment to have her show up. Commander Pantaghast was raised by the church and it pained him to say it like that, but she was a well-known prude and this was a scandal in the making if he ever saw one. And by the mortified look of a frozen Cassandra, he already had a lot of explaining and apologizing to do.

"Come on baby, look at those eyes ... confident and so sexy, and those lips ... hmm, wonder how they would look wrapped around your big cock." Said the queen dragging her finger along the commander's neck and to her lips playing with them. Eliana took advantage of her husband's consternation to lean near her captive ears and talk in a whisper.

"You can hide it from yourself all you want, Cassy. But if there is one thing I know, it's a horny slut, and you, my dear, are a very horny little warrior." Eliana said huskily, capturing the commander's ear with her lips sucking on it.
