The Tiger Within Chapter 182

Published at 3rd of September 2019 01:29:16 PM Chapter 182

The palace of the dancing winds was quiet . The birds that normally disturbed the silence had found reasons not to chirp . Prince Clovis sat quietly at his desk in the garden, reading over papers and reviewing all his notes . It had become a custom for him to take morning tea among the flowers and wait for her to arrive .

Though each night his Moon left just as he laid down to sleep, she returned each morning before he could leave the house . Because of this he waited for her patiently in the back dancing wind courtyard . Just like every morning, the white tigress made her way into his line of site . Seeing her yet again, those golden eyes glowing took a lot off his mind . At least now he had a partner he hoped he could trust .

Advertisement"Welcome back, Moon my dear . " he greeted kindly . His voice was tired, and she could tell he had not slept well . From what Kyera could tell, Clovis never really slept much at all . Maybe a few hours here or there but most his time was spent working . She sighed, giving him her best disapproving look before laying beside the pillow he had provided as her bed . He chuckled . "I swear your the first familiar to deny her bed . " she stared at him for a long moment .

'You, human are the first person to offer a princess Tigress a bed with fuzzy warmth! I am covered in fur!' she grumbled at him, aware he couldn't understand but it made her feel better . She looked wistfully at the bamboo hammock strung between two trees . It was a bit small for her but… she considered it . Her cat like instincts told her go for it, but her princess self control forbid it .

"oh well, suit yourself . We have to meet his Majesty in a bit and you still need to get ready . " he sighed and Kyera looked at him warily . Why did it sound like she wasn't going to like this next bit .

Two beauties came out with a bamboo mat, rolled up and tied with a pretty ribbon . Instinctively Kyera glared at it . The case opened to reveal a row of combs and a few rolls of lace . She looked at him then at them as if someone had best explain . If what was about to happen is what she was expecting this would not go over well .

The older of the two beauties flashed Clovis a flirtatious smile then pulled out a thin comb . The prongs close together . Kyera knew instantly this woman wasn't touching her . She growled softly in warning .

"Be nice . " Clovis warned her and she felt the mark awaken . She couldn't harm these two… not that she wanted to . She had a feeling he would learn the difference between nice and behaved .

The girl reached out and Kyera moved back when she offered the comb to be sniffed . She took it as permission and drug the prongs through the fur on Kyera's paw . At which point something soft, thick, and fluffy slapped her hand away . Clovis watched in astonishment as his familiar spatted the girl's hand with her tail . The tigress then sat up pulling her paws as close to her haunches as she could do regally .

'Nope . Your not touching me . ' Kyera chuffed shaking her head . When the girl tried to approach she began to speak .

"Nice Tigress… . Pretty Tigress lets get you cleaned up . We even have pretty bows…" she offered as if soothing a child . At this point the inner noble beast of Kyera's pride needed to be consoled . Did these people realize that was counterproductive?

At 'Bows' Kyera turned and leaped into the tree climbing just out of reach . She wasn't sure how to make her point, but this was a good start . Clovis stared at her with a frown .

"Moon, come on it's just a brush . " he took the comb from the girl and ran it through his own hair wincing instantly before looking at the comb like it bit him . Kyera couldn't help but chuckle at him as he realized why she was shying away from that girl . "This is a finishing comb . Why were you starting with a finishing comb?" He asked emphasizing finishing both times .
