A random orc, but he’s a good eggie I swear!
Any monster romance writer can use this character’s design! Just let me keep my watermark and we are good! <3
Another request! This one I struggled with a little bit at first, I loved the idea but had so many different ways I wanted to take it, it was hard to settle on one, I may revisit something like this again in the future! *Disclaimer: None of the pics are mine, all credit goes to original artists!

- Quintyn was the librarian though he didn’t look like one, standing at about 6’1, he was intimidating to say the least. His black hair was usually tied back into a ponytail or a bun, which he pulled off effortlessly.
- Being an orc, many of the preschoolers had questions for him, what was his life like, did his tusks bother him, and so on. He took the questions and answered them to the best of his abilities with a smile.
- You had met him the first day you had started, you were unsure of where to go and he had asked if you needed assistance, to which you had replied yes and were grateful for.
- Though it was painfully obvious many of the single moms and dads had developed a crush on the easy-going librarian, and he was oblivious to many of their advances.
- It took nearly half a year for you to work up the courage to say yes when he kept asking you to go out on dates, with the encouragement of some of the other teachers at a get-together. They had seen how the two of you interacted and it was obvious that the librarian was into you.
- Though it didn’t take you nearly as long to say yes when he proposed to you a year later.
“Quintyn?” You questioned as you made your way towards the library, hearing laughter coming from several of the students as they raced ahead of you. The orc sitting behind his desk as a line was formed to check out several books, you smiled slightly at seeing some of the titles considering they had been your favorite growing up. Though when he heard you calling for him, he looked up and offered a smile, motioning for you to sit beside him at the desk. Not needing to be asked a second time, you made your way over and took the spot beside him, helping him check the books out for the kids.
“You have parent-teacher meetings tonight right?” He asked as he looked over at you, you nodded in response, reaching out he brushed a few strands of your brunette hair away from your features. “I’ll wait for you, that way we can go home together.” He responded softly, the kids giggling quietly at how ‘gross’ the two of you were acting. Which only caused him to laugh, telling the kids that one day they’ll be acting the same way when they find someone to love.
“I don’t know how it’s going to go, Angie’s mom has not been thrilled that she has been flunking most of the assignments even with help. I’ve emailed her, called and even spoken to Angie as well to see what kind of help she needs so we can have her pass. She says that she just doesn’t want to do the assignments.” You sighed softly, opting to have your class spend the rest of study hall in the library reading.
By the time that the end of the day had rolled around, you were preparing for the last of your parent-teacher meetings, you had saved Angie for last. When her mom had walked in with her, you took a breath as the tiefling took a seat across from you, an ear piece attached to her ear as she idly picked at her nails as though she had somewhere better to be than here.
“I see that Angie had done incredibly well at the beginning of the year, she was acing everything and doing fantastic for someone in preschool…” You started once her mom had given you her attention. “But towards the middle here, she had started to get bored and stopped doing her assignments. I have tried everything, I spoke to Angie directly and she had stated that she just didn’t want to do them.” You were getting the sense that the reason Angie didn’t want to do the assignments was due to the fact that her mom was barely paying attention to what you were saying.
“Then do them for her. No daughter of mine will be caught flunking preschool. Besides, how hard can it be to take a few minutes out of your day to do them? There’s what, maybe two assignments tops?” Her mom questioned as her gaze narrowed at you. “I don’t have time to sit and be lectured by someone beneath me. I have more important business matters to attend to.”
“Miss, I cannot do her assignments for her, that is against my policy and wouldn’t be teaching her anything…” You were cut off before you could finish the statement.
“Then you figure it out or I will be contacting the principal to get you fired and have a replacement that would be willing to make exceptions for some students.” She growled as she stood, taking Angie’s hand. “We are done here, you have a week to make sure my darling passes or it’s your job.” She warned as she stormed out of the class with Angie.
You sat there for a few moments, gathering your thoughts and feeling more frustrated than before as you collected your things. Quintyn had managed to have perfect timing as he caught you stuffing your laptop into its bag rather haphazardly. “It didn’t go as planned?” He asked, to which you shook your head as you cleared your throat, fighting back tears that threatened to spill.
“No, she basically threatened to go to the principal if I don’t fix things myself or do Angie’s work for her, which I cannot do. You know that.” You ranted for a moment as he came over and wrapped his muscular arms around you. “It’s unfair, my job is to help them… Why… Parents are so difficult!” You finished as you hugged onto him tightly, he pressed a kiss to the top of your head and held you for a few moments longer.
“I know, I just had to have a young boy’s mom replace a book that he had colored in and she was not happy about that.” He murmured softly, scooping you up in one arm and grabbing your stuff with the other. “Let’s go home okay? I’ll cook dinner tonight.”
“Will you make me my favorite?” You asked as you glanced up at him with hopefulness, he could only laugh at your big brown doe eyes, practically pleading for him to make the dish.
“Of course, what kind of husband would I be if I didn’t make my wife her favorite when she was feeling upset?” He questioned as he carried you out to your shared car, setting you in the passenger side as you giggled softly, ready for him to take you home.

After the week-long journey of riding your horse and wearing comfortable clothes, it was slightly weird to wear your formal garment. Nevertheless, it was common royal rules to wear something ‘suitable’ when meeting with other royalties. At least your outfit didn’t constrict your lungs from breathing and fitted pleasantly on your body without any discomfort. Yet the absence of the familiar weight of your sword was enough to make your stomach clench in nervousness.
Inhaling and exhaling slowly, you open the large wooden door of the guest room and exit without a sound. True to Karguk’s word, one of the guards was standing there and escorted you to the dining hall. Once you reached, he bowed at you and walked away and you were left alone with the warriors and the royal family of Slainem. The place was filled with long tables lined up vertically from the entrance and the furthest back was a single wooden table and chairs placed.
Loud laughter and conversations filled the hall and it was enough to accelerate your heart. When your gaze landed on the royal table, the siblings were the only one present and you instantly relaxed at their comfortable banter. Mogak, noticing you, grinned and waved you over and patted the seat next to her, indicating to sit beside her—across from Karguk. She had a mischief glinting in her eyes, and you knew that for the few days you’re going to stay, the teenage orc was going to scheme you together with her older brother.
“Come sit with us,” she shouted over the noise.
You could see her trying to hide a smirk. Raising a brow, you smiled and strolled to the seat. In the short time, you felt so small and insignificant walking between the large orcs that you wanted to shrink—you also felt Karguk’s eyes boring through your skin but you kept your calm and safely sat on the chair.
“Thank you,” you only said to her. You felt extremely small sitting in the middle of the giant orcs, and you tried your best to keep a balance of keeping your back straight and shrinking slightly so as to not draw too much attention.
Karthurg sipped a goblet of water and placed it on the table. “How do you like it here?” he asked.
“It’s very nice,” you answered truthfully.
He nodded and smiled. “That’s good to hear. And if you need anything, I’m sure Karguk would be delighted to help you.”
You narrowed your eyes slightly at the sight of the same glint he held as her sister. “Right.” Turning towards Karguk, you see his cheeks in the colour of moss in the deepest part of the shadow; now recognizing them as equivalent to a blush.
Karthurg jabbed him harshly, and Karguk growled furiously in response, causing the eldest to laugh good-naturedly while the younger to grumble something under his breath.
“Now what do you say, Karguk?” chided Karthurg.
Karguk momentarily glared before he straightened up abruptly at your heavy gaze and cleared his throat, failing to hide his embarrassment. “Of course. I’ll be happy to help.”
Mogak snickered quietly and hid it behind her goblet.
Ignoring her clear amusement, you beamed at him appreciatively. “Thank you.”
His shoulders sagged and smiled happily back at you.
The decrease in sound and pairs of footsteps caught all of your attention; looking up at the entrance, King Krouthu and Queen Mazoga walked out majestically. The jewels sewn on the fabric of their outfit sparkled against the bright firelight around the hall. All the warriors stood up and bowed the entire time at the king and queen as they walked leisurely to their table. Following their lead, Karthurg, Karguk, and Mogak stood up as well and you imitated them.
Once they arrived, all the warriors sat on their chairs and the hall started to fill in with loud noises again. King Krouthu asked a question about his sons’ training and studies and started a conversation. There was a big contrast between back at your home and here at Slainem, your thoughts were occupied until Mogak talked to you.
“Hey,” she said, “are you still there?”
You blinked a couple of times and snapped out to face her. “Yeah, I think.”
She smirked. “And can I ask what exactly were you thinking?”
Knowing what she was doing, you smiled back at her without a trace of red on your features. “I was thinking of the differences between Xaenait and here.”
Mogak’s lips turned into a disappointed frown when she didn’t find any lie beneath your words. “So you’re not thinking about my brother?”
“Why are you so determined to stick your brother and I?”
“Who said I was?” She fluttered her eyes innocently.
You hummed skeptically and looked away from her—when you did, you saw that your plate was filled with the bowl of foods that had just been served. Glancing up, you saw Karguk rather frantically eating his food, and when he met your eyes, he smiled bashfully.
“I—Are you all right with the food?”
Nodding, you smiled back at him. “Thank you.”
A deep blush appeared on his face but he succeeded in hiding it by covering it with his hands. “Don’t mention it.” He shoved in a large slice of meat, not knowing that he was trying to distract himself rather than staring at you.
You watched for a moment as his cheeks puffed up as he munched on his food and your lips started to curl without knowing it. The both of you froze when you felt the intense stares you received from beside. You met the unreadable gaze of the king and you felt yourself blush furiously from embarrassment, that you didn’t notice the fond smile graced on his face as he stared at the two of you.
“How is your father back at Xaenait?” he asked, being the merciful person he is.
“He’s fine,” you said, “though he did wish to come here himself as well.”
King Krouthu smiled sadly. “I’m sure we will get a chase of seeing one another soon.”
“I do hope so.”
“And as for the letter, I would like you to pass it to one of my children for it.”
The reason behind journeying here slipped out of your mind for the last few days and you knew the reason—blushing faintly. “Oh, yes, of course.”
He grinned, shortly glimpsing at Karguk. “Excellent.”
After that the king and queen had to depart for an urgent meeting with the council and left you four alone. While Karthurg and Mogak talked, suddenly, you felt a gentle tap on your shin that sent a small chill to your body. Cautiously, you peeked down beneath the table to see Karguk’s foot leaning towards your leg, and when you looked up, he had a small smirk curved at the end of his mouth. You raised a brow at him, which he responded by secretly gesturing at the chair you were sitting at. A ball of paper landed on your lap and you widened your eyes in surprise.
You slowly opened the paper and peeked at the messy words scribbled on it.
I would like to meet you at night in the library—Karguk.
Tilting your head to the side, you eyed him incredulously.
He shrugged his shoulders, his lips stretching something much more mischievous. But then his green skin paled, and without a moment to pass Mogak snatched the piece of paper away swiftly and took a look on it.
“Mogak,” he hissed furiously, though his cheeks started to darken.
She smirked broadly and read the words on it in silence while Karthurg watched her curiously. Then, she cackled out a good-hearted laugh that boomed across the hall even with the other loud warriors inside.
“Oh brother dear, I didn’t know you were so desperate for her attention,” she said. She handed the note to Karthurg who eagerly read as well.
Karguk’s frame fumed with both fury and distress that had him seem to smoke with black fog.
You tried to hide the urge to snicker, but remained calm, not wanting to cause any more humiliation at Karguk.
The eldest started to bark with laughter as soon as he finished. “How mundane of you. What are you going to do when you get there, brother of mine?”
“Talk,” Karguk said through gritted teeth. “I was planning to take her to the library to talk. Nothing suspicious.”
His siblings feigned to be sceptical and shared a look with each other cheekily.
“You know what?” You took the last bite of your remaining food and stood up. “How about we go to the library now, Karguk?”
He sighed in relief and abruptly rose from his chair as well—happy that the events suddenly turned by your small statement. “I’ll be happy to.”
Karthurg and Mogak remained quiet from slight shock and the two of you didn’t have a hard time walking away from the dining hall. A chuckle flew out of him and you cracked a smile of your own.
“Thank you for helping me escape that humiliating moment.” He lightly bumped his arm against your shoulder.
“It was nothing difficult.” You chuckled to yourself.
He pushed open a door and escorted you inside; your eyes widened at the sight of the massive library filled with thousands of leather-bound books and a comfortable lounge placed scattered around. At your wide eyes, Karguk smiled fondly and led you wordlessly to the cushioned chair for you to sit.
“This place is amazing,” you breathed out.
“I’m glad you like it.”
Karguk sat on the chair just right next to you that his arm brushed against yours. As you stared at the flickering flame, you didn’t realize him leaning at you until his hot breath tickled the side of your cheek. Staggering, you couldn’t look away from his golden eyes that pinned you down to place.
He softly spoke your name and snapped you out of your trance. “Are you all right?” His eyes sparkled with amusement as he watched you fumble with words.
“Y-Yes,” you unconvincingly said. “Yes, I’m all right. Why wouldn’t I?”
“I don’t know.” The corner of his eyes crinkled as he smiled. “You stuttered.”
Clearing your throat, you backed away slightly. “Well, I can’t help feeling nervous when someone’s this close.”
“Is that so?”
You nodded, and your eyes started to droop like they were heavy blankets. “Not again,” you mumbled sleepily.
Karguk laughed softly and started to stroke his rough yet gentle fingers through your hair. The sound of his voice and the feeling of his fingers send another wave of exhaustion to slam on your body and you lean towards his touch.
“How about I take you to your room?”
You hummed in agreement and finally closed your eyes and crashed your head on his shoulder. “Thank you,” you managed to say.
You barely heard the sound of the shift in the cushions but almost squealed when his strong arms snaked to your back and then under your knees and hauled you up to his chest. He cradled you tenderly like a light feather and sauntered through the castle easily.
Sighing content, you breathed in his scent without fully conscious, giggling as you did. “You smell good,” you said drunkenly.
His deep chuckle rumbled through your ears and felt his chest vibrate. “And you sound like a male orc that drank fifteen goblets of mead.”
Looking up through half-lidded eyes, you asked, “Was there such an orc who actually drank that much mead?”
“My brother did,” he said humorously. “He sounded exactly like you, just… worse.”
You grinned. “I would’ve loved to see that.”
The creaking of the door opening echoed through the hall and brought your attention. He walked towards you to the bed and gently placed you on the mattress.
“Thank you.”
“No troubles.”
You adjusted yourself on the pillow and peered through the gap of the soft cushion at Karguk. “Could you… perhaps stay?” you requested hesitantly. “For a while?”
His eyes darted through the guest room and finally landed on you. Swallowing, he flashed you a smile and nodded. “Of course.”
He brought a chair next to you and perched himself awkwardly on it, looking endearing as his cheeks burned.
You smiled against the pillow. “Good night, Karguk.”
He brushed a strand of hair away, then kissed your temple tentatively. The warmth of his lips lingered on your skin for a while and the final thread for sleep was woven with the action.
“Good night, love.”
