Herald of Steel



Lady Felicia and Lapitus finally disconnected from their session, the latter panting much far harder than the former, with a very pleased smile plastered on his face.

Lapitus had never seen his woman so wild in bed and the reason for this was revealed to be all to reward him for his success in capturing the city.

A thought that made Lapitus very happy and further fueled his ambition as he sought to prove himself more to his wife.

While Lady Felicia herself found the act…. not half bad.

Lapitus was no limp in bed but quite capable.

But unfortunately, he still felt far short of Alexander and his super engrossed organ.

And it seemed that after Alexander had molded Lady Felicia's tunnels to his personal shape, somehow the act with anyone else had lost its flavor, as Lady Felicia's body cried in frustration for not being pleased to that insane level.

A feeling for which Lady Felicia cursed her body multiple times, for during the act her mind had drifted multiple times back to that night.

She even saw Alexander's face multiple times superimpose itself onto her husband's, taunting her feeling like this, something she felt very ashamed of, but somehow also got very turned on.

Alexander was indeed right, Lady Felicia did have a shame kink and it was a heavy one at that.

But regardless of her own thoughts and level of enjoyment, Lady Felicia had achieved what she intended to do- to please Lapitus.

And then she brought out the real reason why she had worked so hard to get Lapitus into a good mood.

Lying on his chest, in a coy, shy, unusually meek voice, the pink, armous atmosphere in the room was slightly disturbed why Lady Felicia's voice, as the lady began while twirling her fingers around the chised chest, "I have something to say. Promise you won't get mad?" 

The tone of the inquiry caught Lapitus off guard, as he did not think he ever heard his wife sound so soft and pleading.

And as he brought down his curious eyes glazed with loveness, he heard Lady Felicia quickly reassure him, 

"Don't worry it's nothing too big! It's just that when Lady Gelene was giving me this dress, she showed me several ones to choose from."

"And Zulkain…" Lady Felicia ground her teeth a bit as she said the name, "that idiot stole one for herself!"

The venomous lady had just created a fake thief.

"What!" And this immediately got an alarmed reaction from Lapitus, as he jerked up from his prone position, displacing Lady Felicia's head.

And the reaction was quite justified, given the gravity of the situation.

Never mind the mere crime of stealing from someone like Alexander, of all the things, they had to steal something so valuable.

Lapitus did not know the exact value of the dress, but given the intricate works, the fine style, and the studded diamonds there, he estimated it to be at least in the ten thousand ropals range.

And although Lapitus earned close to ten times the salary of a regular soldier, this would still be his yearly salary.

And that was beside the point.

Because it was so much more about trust than that paltry amount of money to Alexander.

"Do you know what this means for us? Do you what will happen if it gets out?" Lapitus whispered in alarm, his eyes bloodshot, the pink atmosphere that Lady Felicia had built almost shattering.

This was why Lady Felicia had 'worked' so hard to make Lapitus comfortable, for had Lapitus not been in such a good mood, he might have simply stormed out of the room and killed the maid right then and there.

Before taking her head to apologize to Alexander.

And this would have been totally fine to do.

For a master could do anything to his slave no matter the reason.

Nevermind the girl was actually guilty, and of such a serious crime as stealing, in addition to such a precious item at that.

Lapitus already considered simply hacking off her head was a mercy, as a way of showing gratitude for the years of loyal service she had provided them, for far more cruel punishments awaited thieves.

Ways that although Lapitus had personally overseen being administered, still made even his hard stomach churn. 

"I know! I know!" Towards the enraged man, Lady Felicia repeatedly caressed his chest to try and soothe him, saying, "The fool made a mistake. But then she came to me by herself. With tears in her eyes, bowing and admitting her mistake."

"And given how long she has been with me, I was unable to severely punish her."

"She has never done anything like this before and simply got muddle headed for a second."

"Forgive her! Please"

Lady Felicia pleaded with a great whine to her voice.

And hearing his wife's soothing voice and gentle caress, Lapitus did not know what to do.

So taking a great, deep breath, he finally ceased smoldering.

And then pursing his lips, Lapitus posed, "So what do we do now? Give it back?" 

But he could easily see all the myriad problems with that.

"Later! Not now." And Lady Felicia shared these concerns, articulating, "If we were to admit this now, it would look too bad on us. Like we are unable to control our slaves."

"The pasha might even think that if we cannot even keep our household servants in check, how can we control the city?"

"That will ruin all our ambitions."

"Or even if he understands, he might want to see Zulkain punished. I do not want to see that."

Lady Felicia strongly shook her head.

And Lapitus indeed agreed as he nodded, however, added, "But… we still must punish Zulkain. To show her this is not right. And make sure this never happens." 

"Yes, we should." And Lady Felicia nodding suggested she seemed to strongly agree.

Although she then pointed out, "But not right now. I'm sure given how smart the Pasha and Lady Gelene are, they will have their suspicions on who could have taken that dress."

"And if we punish Zulkain too harshly, it might easily cause them to have some guesses, since she is my personal maid,"

Lady Felicia said this because 'heavily punishing' a slave almost exclusively involved beating them with a wooden stick, regardless of gender.

And many times it would be a brutal beating that would not stop until they lost consciousness.

And as it could be guessed, this approach many times even caused death, either directly from the beating or from the subsequent injuries.

And Lady Felicia wanted to avoid that.

Though not for any soft hearted reason.

If Lady Felicia could have, she would have killed that loyal maid of hers who kept her mouth eternally shut for more than ten whole years without batting an eye, just based on the mere suspicion of her talking.

She even contemplated doing exactly that, such as by using Lapitus right now.

But then she thought herself out of it. 

Because given Alexander's spies already had their gazes on them, the pasha might question Lapitus over the maid's death.

And although killing a slave for even no reason was totally legal, it was socially very damning to do so without any valid cause.

Nevermen when they were trying to get on Alexander's good books, for that was not the way to do it.

So if Alexander were to ask them of the crime that long time servant had committed to demand such a harsh measure, Lapitus would not be able to worm his way out by using a trivial matter, especially given Zulkain was Lady Felicia's personal maid for almost one and a half decade.

These people were naturally very trusted and so if the couple did not want to appear very petty and hot headed, something that was socially frowned upon, the matter had to be grave enough to entitle the death penalty.

 Which if Lapitus was to make up out of the blue, would open up a whole new can of worms.

And Lady Felicia certainly did not want Alexander to go snooping around based on an imaginary crime, for she feared what unknown things he would dig up.

Hence, she decided to spare the girl, for now.

And completely unbeknownst to her, Zulkain, had just escaped the death penalty, while the mature lady continued, 

"But if we punish her too lightly, it might not have its intended effect."

"So, let us not do anything. We can teach her a lesson once all this blows over."

And then before Lapitus could speak, claimed in a confident voice, "Don't worry, I have a plan. I will be able to return the piece without Lady Gelene becoming ever the wiser. But I need some time."

And at learning of the existence of this miraculous saving move, Lapitus was naturally ecstatic, "Oh! What's the plan?" as his curiosity overflew.

But Lady Felicia only flashed her palms and waved impatiently, "Don't worry, you will see it when it happens."

Naturally, there was no plan, for Lady Felicia had made the whole thing up.

And the reason for all this convoluted planning was for this exact moment, as wrapping her thick thighs around her husband in an alluring move, Lady Felicia sprung her snare on this distracted prey.
