Chapter 1036 Lord Cassius\'s Secret

As if asking, \'Why are you telling them all this now? What were you doing with them in your room for so long? Why not tell them then?\'

The answers to all these questions were of course obvious- because they were too busy screwing each other.

But both Alexander and the two queens pretended to not be able to sense this strange gaze, with Lady Parthia even managing to keep a straight face instead of blushing so as to not give herself away, while Alexander quickly attempted to divert the topic with a cough and, the following news,

"Also Lady Miranda, I did not get to tell you yesterday because it was already so late, but I met with Miss Linda after lunch and..."

Once again Alexander spent a long time relating the entire conversation he had with that beautiful but now hateful woman, from all the things Miss Linda had said and offered, to what he thought were her fears, to how Miss Linda had tried to seduce him to her side by showing her and even her maid\'s breasts and to lastly how he had resisted her advances and ended the meeting with the excuse that he will need to talk it over with his advisors before being able to answer her.

He decided to embellish the ending like that because he did not want to even speak the filth that was really uttered, neither did he think that it really mattered in the grand scheme of things.

Given what the other side was already accusing Alexander of- looting the temples, their enmity was already set in stone- there would be little effect in revealing this other than turning Alexander restored mood once again sour.

And he was right in thinking this, as Lady Miranda was far more concerned about the contents of the conversation than how it ended.

Thus as Alexander finally finished his speech, Lady Miranda had all but forgotten to ask what him and the two married queens were doing all night, but instead clenching her teeth spat with a burning rage, " I should have known she would try to do something like that. Linda has always been like that. Scheming shrew! Shameless …"

Lady Miranda for a moment paused here, as if unsure whether she should utter the crude word that came to her mind, then ultimately decided not to given the two regal company she had, contenting herself with only huffing, "To think she would do such a thing even when is married. Disgusting! I weep for Lord Parker. She is a disgrace to all the women of our family."

Lady Miranda appeared truly appalled by her sister\'s behavior, before she abruptly turned to look up at Alexander, her fury instantly melting away like dew under the sun, as she produced a soft, light grin, "It was truly prudent that my lord did not take her bait. As expected of a great hero….you could easily discern the poison she held within. This is something to toast to!"

Then to show her appreciation for sticking with her despite Miss Linda\'s obvious advantage in the affair, Lady Miranda then quickly sought to flatter her ally, raising a cup of Galiosos\'s best wine with a great smile.

She really was relieved that Alexander had not chosen to jump ship and was even more glad that he had not jumped onto her sister.

Because she very well knew her youngest sister\'s charms and had personally seen how she had managed to wrap several men around her fingers with it.

Men who were older and presumably more experienced in life than Alexander had fallen to her, resulting in them taking various loss.

Thus this time, Lady Miranda was actually truly impressed that Alexander had managed to restrain himself, as were the two Queens who could not help but shoot a curious and slightly surprised look.

As if they were asking, \'You know how to restrain yourself? When did that happen?\'

This was because given how Alexander had played with both their heavy breasts just the night before, sometimes with both the pairs simultaneously, so you would think he would not be able to keep his hands of any samples, especially when those were free sample at that.

Alexander pretended not to notice these two gazes but with a light smile quickly took up the host on her toast, offering a few platitude of gratitude, while thinking to himself regrading Lady Miranda,

\'You really should work on your flattery. Your sister does it much better.\'

Alexander could not help but think how Miss Linda had made him feel like he was the sole apple in her eye as long as she was with her, in much contrast to Lady Miranda\'s much more generic praise.

Of course her\'s was more genuine and sincere, but Miss Linda\'s had a lot more flair to it, thus was able to also draw in people who were just acquaintances and throught subsequent interaction turn them into allies.

Alexander would have to admit, when it came to making a stranger feel good and welcome, Miss Linda\'s mock alacrity trumped Lady Miranda\'s honestly, leaving the latter in the dust.

He even suspected this was another reason why everybody sided with Miss Linda instead of Lady Miranda, her personal charm, aided of course by Lord Margraves\'s tacit approval and the presence of her powerful husband.

And then he finally ended this internal monologue with the rueful musing that, \'It is too bad the two sisters could not get along. They would have been a formidable force together. Miss Linda could have handled the \'marketing\' side of things, dealing with customers and making business deals, while Lady Miranda could have looked after the business itself.\'

Alexander thought the pair\'s specialty complimented each other perfectly- Miss Linda possessing a great personality but not a good sense of how to rule, and vice versa for Lady Miranda.

Hence he could not help but lampoon at the fact that instead of ruling together as sisters should, they had decided to tear each other apart, wishing to put the other in the ground.

Although this was nothing unheard off, and even common, it still made Alexander a bit sad.

And because Alexander was swimming in such reflections, he missed the subtle impressed look that Lady Miranda\'s husband Lord Cassius was giving him, his mind still occupied by how Alexander had managed to evade his youngest sister in laws traps.

As the brother in law, Lord Cassisus had of course seen Miss Linda and knew just how devilish her beauty was.

In fact, he had never revealed it to his wife, but ust before they were about to get married, Miss Linda had tried to seduce him the same way she had tried to seduce her current husband, in an attempt to marry a good suitor, and as ashamed as Lord Cassius was to admit it, he had faltered.

They of course had not gone the whole way as contrary to Lord Parker, Lord Cassius managed to regain clalrity at the last moment.

But before he could come to his senses, the man had indeed gone a long way along, getting to taste Miss Linda\'s lips and even her breasts, and even getting her to suck him off.

It was after this release that post nut clarity brought Lord Cassius back to what he was really doing and horrified by it, then strongly expressed his reluctance to truly go the whole nine yeads, saying he wanted to marry Lady Miranda.

The man would never forget the kind of scary look Miss Linda had given him, threatening and even throwing a bit of tantrum to force him to marry her.

But credit where credit is due, even though Lord Cassius had made a mistake, he did not seek to then enlargen it, but wanted to rectify it, standing his ground and bullishly defend his decision.

And seeing the mule of a man, the cunning lady did not either cause a scene as that would also negatively affect her, nor did she let him go scot free.

But changing her tactics, she chose a middle ground

She offered Lord Cassius what she had also offered Alexander, her personal maid to complete the deed with.

This way she hoped the man would have at least some connections to her, even if by only association.

And given the situation in the room at the time Lord Cassius had ill advisedly chosen to accept- the atmosphere there being just too raw and energetic for him to refuse.

At that particular time, both him and Miss Linda were naked there and was then quickly joined in that same state by the curvy personal maid, whose figure and face both struck him with amazement, as he drunk in her large bouncy breasts and her pale downy leaking pussy.

Then facing such a beauty with a low status, Lord Cassius let the lust influence him just like Lord Parker and letting the urge take hold of him at the heat of the moment, slept with the slept.

Thus the fact that Alexander had managed to not touch the maid very much impressed the man.
