The Taste of Seduction

He stared at her. "I am going to be doing a full body examination. In order for that to be done properly, you need to undress."

He said slowly, as if speaking to a small child.

Meredith swallowed. There was no way she was going to undress in front of a stranger even though he was a doctor. She just felt uncomfortable doing that especially since they were alone.

"Is that absolutely necessary?"

"You don't have to remove your clothes if you don't want to. We can use a cloth to cover certain parts and only expose the part that I will be examining." He said with a soft smile.

"Fine but we have to wait for Maria to come back." Meredith said, not taking her eyes from the doctor."

He nodded, "Alright, princess. I can wait."

Meredith nodded, "please have a seat."

Fifteen minutes later, Maria came and Meredith breathed a sigh of relief.

The silence in the room was driving her crazy.

Maria assisted her with a cloth. She used a cloth to covered Meredith's legs while she pushed her dress to the top exposing only her stomach to the doctor while lying on the couch.

After the doctor finished assessing her stomach, he withdrew his hand and gave her an encouraging smile.

"Everything is fine, princess. Are you experiencing discomfort anywhere that you want me to know?"

Meredith shook her head, "NoI'm fine."

The doctor nodded. "I'm going to ask some questions, I know you're going to feel shy but please answer me honestly okay?" He said flatly.

"Alright."

"Have you engaged in any sexual activities?"

Meredith blushed profusely at the question.

"Yes."

"Did you use protection?"

Meredith swallowed the lump in her throat, "No-not always."

The doctor nodded, "When was the last time you had period?"

Meredith stiffened and her eyes widened in shock , "Don't tell me I'm pregnant?" She asked, her voice trembling.

The doctor chuckled, "Why princess, you want to be a mother so soon?" The doctor teased.

"Ah-yes-no. Not with everything going on. I can't take care of a child right now and I'm not powerful enough to take care-" Meredith babbled.

"Relax princess. You're not pregnant." The doctor interrupted her.

"Oh." Meredith breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm asking about this because having unprotected sex can lead to STIs and pregnancy. We have to be sure you're healthy right?"

"Alright."

"Any discomfort when urinating."

The doctor asked her a couple of questions and she answered all of them honestly.

"I am also going to take a sample of your blood to be tested for communicable disease or any other underlying illnesses you may have contracted while living among the humans."

"With a needle?" Meredith raised her brows.

The doctor chuckled at her question. "Yes Princess with a needle. Don't tell me you're afraid of needles."

"NoI'm not. Just get it over with." She said, squeezing her eyes shut.

"As you wish. Sit up, please." The doctor ordered.

Meredith sat up, trying to act tough even though she was definitely afraid of needles. But she was sure the doctor might've noticed when the corners of his lips quirked upward.

He wrapped a tonique around her hand and told her to fist her hand.

After rubbing a foul smelling, clear liquid onto the back of her hand, he pulled two, long needles from his briefcase. Meredith felt her stomach fluttered as she stared at them.

"I thought you said you were not afraid of needles."He asked, raising a brow.

"I'm not" Meredith lied.

"Hmm.." He mumbled.

"Alright then. On the the count of three."

He held the point of the needle an inch away from

her arm and Meredith swallowed.

"One..." He said, lowering his head.

"Two..."

He stuck the needle deep into her flesh and injected the shot before she could even realize he had done it.

Meredith gasped.

"Fuck!"She cried.

"Word Princess." He said giving her a stern look but the mischievous glint in his eyes said otherwise.

Meredith rolled her eyes and glared at him.

"You said on three. You lied to me."

"Come on. It wasn't so bad." He said with a smile.

He placed a piece of cotton and a cute small plaster and then proceeded to clean her inner elbow with the same, clear, foul smelling liquid he had used before.

"Another one?" Meredith nearly cried.

"Yes, for hematology analysis. Blood group, genetic disorders and others." He explained picking the second needle.

"Can't you use the first blood?" Meredith whined.

"Not enough. Don't worry. It will only hurt if you don't relax."

He warned, positioning the needle above her vein.

"How am I supposed to relax?" Meredith asked, squeezing her eyes shut.

"Think of something comforting." He suggested.

"Like what?" Meredith sighed.

"What comes to mind?"

Meredith considered it for a moment and her lips curled up into a smile. She closed her eyes and the memory of her and Atlas dancing in the kitchen flashed across her eyes. But the image transformed as images of Atlas bathing in the morning filled her mind and she subconsciously bit her lips.

"There, all done." She heard the doctor say.

Meredith opened her eyes and blushed.

"What?"

"Done. See?" He held up the sample bottle containing blood, the cotton and plaster already in place in the crease of her elbow.

Meredith scrunched her face.

"Weird. I didn't feel a thing." She whispered.

"Must've been thinking of something quite nice,then." He said with a chuckle.

Meredith blushed in embarrassment and looked away.

"Elvin said you had a scar somewhere. Where is it?"

He said placing the blood in his suitcase.

"At my back. Can you turn around? I will remove my dress and lay down in a prone position."

The doctor nodded. He turned and Maria who had been standing there all around helped Meredith to remove her dress and covered her legs get into the position.

"Done."

The doctor gasped in surprised when he saw the mark.

His fingers trailed along the lines and Meredith shivered.

"Do you know what this is?" He asked in a strange tone.

"No? My mom told me I got it while I was playing when I was a kid." Meredith explained.

"Mom?"

"Yes adopted mom on earth."

"Ohbut this is not a scar. It's a mark laced with magic."

"Mark? What mark?" Meredith asked confused.

"The Alpha's mark."
