The Royal Mark-Chapter 34: Take Her Breath Away

"Okay, Romeo... I understand. Can I heal you now?"

"Who’s Romeo?" Chris asked in confusion.

Elsa blinked at Chris several times before breaking into laughter. Her laughter was so infectious that it prompted a chuckle from Chris, even as he insisted on an answer to his question.

"Elsa, who is Romeo? Is there another man besides Jai that I’m unaware of?" Chris inquired, which only fueled Elsa’s laughter.

After a while, Elsa placed a hand on her chest as she tried to regain her composure. "Good Lord, I shouldn’t have laughed like that on such a sad and mournful day. But I couldn’t help myself," she admitted, taking a deep breath before explaining to Chris. "Romeo is a fictional character from a romance novel in my world. The name has become an expression or a nickname for someone who’s overly sweet or romantic."

"Are you saying that I’m romantic?" Chris asked with a smirk.

Elsa pursed her lips, anticipating this response. She could feel her cheeks warming up again, so she held onto Chris’ arms and said, "No comment. Turn around, I’ll start by healing the wounds on your back. They look worse," and gently encouraged him to face away.

Chris’ smirk remained firmly in place as he enjoyed the feeling of Elsa’s hands on his back.

"Does this hurt?" Elsa inquired, gently prodding the skin near his wound.

"Of course it does! Are you trying to punish me, princess? I can still feel pain, you know, even though I’m a werewolf," Chris replied, finding amusement in Elsa’s curiosity.

"Sorry, I’m just curious. I couldn’t help but recall how you didn’t seem to feel any pain when you sat up after I hit you," she explained.

"I did feel pain that time, but I was too eager to see the source of that alluring scent that I was smelling, so I ignored the pain. Oh yeah, that was also the moment when I was naked, and I distinctly remember you inspecting ’every part’ of my body to check for other injuries, even ’there.’ Do you remember that?" Chris chuckled, playfully trying to tease Elsa.

Elsa paused her examination of his back and directed her gaze at the back of his head, utterly astonished by the audacity of this man. She understood perfectly what he meant by ’every part’ and ’there’. She was tempted to give his head a light smack but remembered that he got injured while protecting her, so she refrained.

Chris noticed that Elsa was taking some time to begin healing him, so he inquired, "Are you going to heal my back, or are you still enjoying the view?"

"Shh... I’m trying to recall the process. I had an adrenaline rush earlier, and now I can’t seem to remember it," Elsa explained.

Chris turned around and gently took hold of Elsa’s hands, placing them on his abdomen while studying her closely, observing her every reaction. "I remember it like this... You have to visualize the center of your body warming up."

"That’s the essence of your divine power," Chris explained further. "Once you feel it, imagine that warmth spreading through your body, traveling down your arms and into your hands. Then, picture that power transferring from your hands to my body, healing me."

Elsa nodded and said, "Understood. Let’s give it a try..."

Elsa gazed at her hands and tried to envision everything Chris had described, but nothing seemed to be happening. She grew annoyed and asked, "Why isn’t it working?"

"Perhaps it’s because, as you mentioned, you were in a state of panic earlier, and your emotions were running high, which made it easier for you to do it," Chris suggested.

"I guess you’re right. I often perform better under pressure. Let me close my eyes and concentrate. Please, be quiet," Elsa then closed her eyes, furrowing her brow as she focused intently.

Chris did his best to suppress a laugh at how comical Elsa looked at that moment until Elsa’s patience wore thin completely. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Fuck this!" Elsa exclaimed, and Chris burst out in laughter.

"It’s not funny! Just when I thought I could heal anyone, then I can’t. Stupid useless power!" Els grumbled in frustration.

Chris stopped laughing and quickly adjusted his expression, to avoid further irritating Elsa. "I have an idea. You said you work best under pressure or when you are in a panic right?" Elsa nodded, prompting Chris to continue, "Perfect! I think I can help you with that."

"Okay, how can–"

Chris abruptly pulled Elsa by the waist with one arm while his other hand landed on the back of her neck. He sealed her lips with his, kissing her gently, teasing her lips with his wet tongue.

Elsa was utterly astounded by what Chris did and she was not able to react right away. But when she was able to pull herself back together, she didn’t know what came to her that she did not protest.

She opened her mouth and moved her lips in sync with his. She felt the hairs on her back rise up when their tongues met, tasting each other’s sweetness. Her hands slide up from his abdomen to his chest making both their heart rates speed up.

Elsa can feel her body warm up. She ran her hands from his chest to his back, enveloping him in her arms. The heat of her body was getting intense so she pulled him closer and embraced him tighter until she felt her hands warming up as well.

Her knees started to quiver, so Chris lifted her up and she placed her legs around his waist as he held her securely, making sure she wouldn’t fall. She can feel Chris’ kisses becoming more fiery, and it’s taking her breath away.

His hands were also getting fierce in touching her body all over until she felt him grope hard one of her breasts making her moan and sending her emotions in havoc.

"Elsa..."

She heard him say, so she replied, "Chris..."

"I think it’s effective, I am fully healed. We should stop now. But we can continue if you want." Chris whispered into her ears.
