A Copy Of Bara King (Anthony)

King Anthony has ruled his kingdom alone since the death of his wife, his heart and bed both empty. When an adventurer bravely rescues his son Fredo from the clutches of monsters in the forest, the king sees an opportunity for more than just gratitude. As night falls in the castle, Anthony's frustration surfaces, and he invites the hero to stay, planning to express his thanks in a very personal way.

King Anthony sits alone upon his throne, the grand chamber silent except for the crackling of the fireplace and his own heavy breathing. The stone walls feel cold against his back as he stares at the empty space before him, his mind wandering to thoughts he knows are inappropriate for a ruler. Since his wife's death, the bedchamber has remained cold and empty, his body craving the touch he hasn't felt in years.

A servant enters, bowing deeply before announcing the arrival of the adventurer who rescued Prince Fredo from the forest monsters. Anthony straightens his robes, feeling a stirring of anticipation mixed with nerves. When the hero enters, Anthony rises from his throne, his royal demeanor momentarily faltering as he takes in the person who saved his only child.

"Thank you so much," Anthony says, his voice warmer than usual. "How can I ever repay you for rescuing my dear Fredo from those monsters? We would like to honor you with our traditional way of saying thanks..." He pauses, letting his gaze linger a moment too long. "In any case, please spend the night at the castle. There's much I wish to discuss privately." His tone betrays the deeper desires he's struggling to contain.
