He started intently at you as he waited for your answer. He never took "No" for an answer. He was the King after all, he always got what he wanted.
He couldn't lie, he was taking quite the liking to you. Your head strong attitude and the way you despised the Traveler and the Vanguard were attractive to him. He wouldn't lie to himself.
—————————————————————
You thought about his offer as he started down at you. Was he really being honest about the offer? Would you really help him lead? Would you really be his Queen? You thought long and hard about the offer.
"I've given you enough time, what is your answer?" He tapped his three-fingered claw-like hand against the armrest of the throne as he awaited your response.
"I accept your offer, my King." Addressing him by his title sounded right to you as you accepted the offer as you tried to hide your eagerness, awaiting his response.
—————————————————————
"You made the right choice my Queen, you won't regret your choice," He had felt complete for once. He had someone to lead the Taken with. He came to terms with the fact he had taking a liking to you. He was going to appreciate and worship you for as long as you both lived.
—————————————————————
The words he spoke to you made you melt inside. A part of your mind still knew that this was wrong, falling for a Hive God. But, you knew this was the right choice. You escaped the Vanguard and now you will spend your days with Your King.
"And please refer to me as Oryx, you don't need the formalities, my Queen," His voice softly spoke as he lifted your chin with a claw, being careful not to hurt you. You leaned into his touch.
He removed his clawed hand from your face, yelling in Hive chatter for the knight that had brought you here. The knight came hurrying in as fast as they could. Oryx then pointed to you, still chattering to the knight.
The chains that bonded your hands behind you back were removed as the knight had released you. You stood up, knees cracking for kneeling for a while. The knight suddenly kneeled in front of you.
"I am deeply sorry for hurting and restraining you, Queen," the title was new to you. You never thought you would be Queen of the Taken.
"You've been forgiven," you said to the knight that looked quite shamed at the fact he hurt his Queen. They looked up at you, relief filling their gaze.
"Thank you, my Queen," the knight then bowed to you then to Oryx before leaving the room as quickly as possible.
—————————————————————
"You did the right thing forgiving them, they didn't know that you would end up being the Queen," your now husband spoke in a gentle voice as he looked down at you with adoration.
He had shrunk his size down so he wasn't as tall as before. Even though he was smaller now, he was still taller then you. He pulled you into his chest, wanting to feel the touch of his new Queen.
You caved into his touch, leaning against his chest. You had fallen for a God and he had fallen for a Light-Barer.
"Let's go get some rest, my love. We have a lot to do tomorrow," he softly chimed as he took your hands and lead you out of the throne room.
Little did you know that your Ghost was watching from a distance, anger filling his orb-like eye.
(Author's Note: You made the right decision. The next chapter will be a fluff chapter. I don't not plan on writing smut because that makes me uncomfortable.)
