( Asiva's Pov )
Asiva's blood boiled when she noticed Marcus Aurelius gawking at her from the crowd.
Had it not been for Sebastian restraining her anger, she would have probably killed Marcus on the spot right then and there.
She hated the man a lot, second only to Will Kingsman and her hatred towards him was completely justified after his lewd obsession with herself to submit to him for sex.
The only reason why she did not start a fight was because she knew the background that Marcus Aurelius possessed, he was not a man who could be casually provoked and for that very reason Asiva maintained her calm.
When the gathering was dispersed, Asiva purposefully strayed away from the group hoping that Marcus would follow her and that's exactly what the bastard did as he tried to sneakily follow her but was horrible at hiding his presence as even a blind man could spot him tailing someone.
A big smile curled up on Asiva's lips as a devious plan formed in her mind. While she had no idea why Marcus was in the military or why he was wearing a lieutenant uniform, the one thing she was sure of was that the man was obsessed with her, and while a direct confrontation was not preferable until more details about his circumstances were clear, she had a plan in mind to make him suffer.
Asiva went straight towards Max's cabin and waited outside his office for his return as she watched Marcus hiding on a tree branch nearby, observing Asiva closely.
Her boyfriend who had just finished addressing the crowd came back to his office alongside a lieutenant just minutes later and was confused upon seeing Asiva waiting on him there.
" Dismissed lieutenant " Max said to his company as the man gave Max a sharp salute before walking off from the scene as if he did not see a woman waiting outside Max's office.
" Why are you here? Don't you have morning training to do with your underlings? " Max questioned Asiva as Asiva said nothing but instead conveyed a full story through her eyes.
She diverted Max's attention to Marcus hiding on the tree branch nearby, before replying " Captain, I wanted to go to training but there's something I must do before "
Max's mind fell into a disarray at spotting Marcus, he could not understand why the heir of the Aurelius clan was in such a dangerous place or why he was wearing lieutenant uniform, but Max's mind was thrown into complete shambles when he heard Asiva's seductive voice.
Asiva never talked like this, she never behaved coquettishly, yet for some reason, she was doing so today and it made Max's mind go dizzy.
" What might that be? " Max asked as he gulped a mouthful of saliva nervously.
" Ummm…. " Asiva pretended to be shy as she clapped her hands together and swayed her hips from side to side, making sure that she roused Marcus's emotions before destroying them.
" Captain, can you please come closer, the thing I want to tell you, it can't be revealed so openly " Asiva said very slowly and very clearly as her skin blushed deep red from putting on this embarrassing act, but she knew that while it was difficult for her, it was going to be hell for someone else.
Max stepped in closer, as Asiva pulled his mask a little up before leaning in for a kiss.
Asiva hugged Max, and started making out with him on the spot as the two of them exchanged a long and passionate kiss after which Max lifted her and took her into his office as Asiva giggled and cheered him on.
Moans and giggles reverberated outside the cabin for a full hour before Max sensing that Marcus had finally left, as the duo stopped the act and finally got serious once he left.
" Wow, that sex was amazing, although it was just an act " Max said as he felt like he had one of the best orgasms of all time today with Asiva behaving so coquettishly.
Asiva on the other hand, hid her face in embarrassment as she said " Never, ever, ever, remind of today again "
Max chuckled as he put on his robes and got completely focused.
He needed to urgently find out why Marcus was here and what his intentions might be, and prepare for a possible assassination attempt at his life by the man.

( Marcus's POV )
" SLUT! FUCKING WHORE! FUCKING BITCH! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! " Marcus lost his damn mind in the middle of the forest as he could not wash away the scene of Asiva kissing the masked man from his mind at all.
In his entire life Marcus had never wanted something as much as he wanted Asiva and now her price was tainted. Claimed by another, and that too by his enemy.
" I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU FUCKING MASKED MAN! I'LL KILL YOU, I'LL KILL THAT BITCH AND I'LL FEED YOUR CORPSES TO THE VULTURES". Marcus screamed at the top of his throat as Asiva's moans rang loudly in his head.
The confidence, drive and self discipline Marcus had built so painstakingly over the past few weeks had been obliterated completely after this incident as Marcus became mentally unstable after today's events.
Marcus began pulling his own hair out of his head as he could not tolerate the throbbing pain he felt inside it.
He scratched his nails against a wooden tree until his nails broke and bled, but even then the physical pain could not trump his mental anguish.
" In the end all that act of not wanting a man, all that desire to protect your chastity from a noble prince like me was just a front wasn't it?
A front to get more money and benefits from me?
Because you fucked that guy, and he's just a captain, a nobody infront of who I once was.
Hahahahaha
Hahahahahaha
Ha, hahaha, hahahaha
That's right, he's a nobody and I'll squish him like the bug that he is.
Today, either he lives or I do.
The masked man has to die " Marcus said as he retrieved his sword from his inventory and began dragging it on the ground as he walked towards Max's cabin.
His mind had been made, he was going to challenge Max to a deathmatch.
