The King's virgin bride 25. Are They Hiding Something from Me?
Frederick did nothing more than wait for the moment when the Viscount would stop showing him his exclusive collection of liquors brought from a significant number of countries and realms. At another time, that would have been a very interesting conversation, but now he only wished to go up to his chamber and then sneak into Selene's room.The Viscount offered the king a sip of his finest whiskey, which he couldn't refuse, and a few more glasses followed.Frederick didn't achieve his mission to go up in time to meet his betrothed because when he finally went up to look for her, he found her asleep on the bed. The king's eyes traveled over Selene's body. She hadn't undressed, and guilt struck him when he realized that she had been waiting for him.With slow and silent steps, he approached her, bent down slightly, and kissed her forehead. It was a quick and gentle touch, like a breeze before stepping away. Frederick contemplated her in complete silence for several minutes. He was tempted
The King's virgin bride 26. An ardent desire
The queen swallowed hard, as she didn't know how to tell her daughter about what mere suspicions had been for years. Henry hadn't been caught in any wrongdoing."When your brother and Henry began to live here in the castle, Henry constantly complained about the mistreatment he received from Frederick. It was so convincing that on several occasions, your father and I believed him. Moreover, we couldn't help but feel sorry for him, as being so young, he had lost his parents. However, his changing behaviors eventually made it clear that what your brother said, denying the attacks, was nothing but the truth. Henry went as far as to harm himself, in order to accuse your brother and make us go against our own son," the queen told her daughter, who listened in amazement."But... that was when they were little," Samantha said. She had seen her cousins behave similarly, seeking attention from their parents by pretending to be hurt or exaggerating the harm their sibling had done."I'm afraid th
The King's virgin bride 27. I'm dying for you
Selene's moans and gasps, to the king, were like kindling on a bonfire. Every sound of pleasure emitted by her increased the desire in Frederick, who kissed and licked those erect buttons as if they were the most appetizing delicacy.Selene's legs clung to the king's hips with greater strength, making her center collide with the monarch's pelvis, so, one of her hands moved to one of the white and smooth legs, and began to caress them slowly, while her mouth left her fiancée's breasts, to start leaving a path of wet kisses that passed by the young lady's abdomen, which was rising and falling erratically.Anxiety was wreaking more havoc in Selene's head than the same kisses and caresses of her fiancé, for she did not know what was all that she was feeling and, although very pleasant, she was also invaded by fear of the unknown."Your Majesty," she whispered panting."Lady Selene..." he replied softly, as he parted his lips from her skin. Their eyes met and the flames of desire and passi
The King's virgin bride 28. What is this that I'm feeling?
Selene couldn't help but shift her gaze towards the landscape visible through the carriage window. Her heart was racing, yet she felt happy and deeply confused. A sense of shame washed over her as she recalled what had just transpired with the king in the middle of nowhere. It wasn't right; she hadn't been raised or educated this way. Still, it felt so good that the desire to continue experiencing it grew within her."Anyway, we will be spouses," she thought, attempting to shake off that feeling of guilt."Is something wrong?" Frederick asked when he noticed Selene's hand had gone rigid, ceasing its thumb movement around his hand.Selene turned, not quite grasping the question, but a shiver ran down her spine upon seeing the king's intense gaze fixed on her. She swallowed but didn't dare to say anything. Instead, she shook her head and offered a timid smile."You don't need to hide things from me," the king said, surprising her. "I know something's bothering you. Please, tell me."One
The King's virgin bride 29. The king's bride has been taken!
Selene was petrified at the sight of the five men surrounding her. She didn't recognize any of them, nor did she understand what they wanted from her, but the truth was, they were ready to attack her. She looked to the sides and decided to take a risk, before they could do anything to her, so she started running towards a space between the men, the only problem was that it was taking her further away from Baron's house."Don't run, doll," said one of the men, and they laughed.They were mocking her, and it was too late when Selene realized she had fallen into their trap, as they made her stray farther from the guards, and two more men, whom she hadn't seen before, came out to meet her, trapping her tightly in their arms."Help!" the young lady screamed, but they quickly covered her mouth with a dirty and foul-smelling cloth, which made her stomach turn.Selene tried with all her might to free herself from their grip, but it was not possible, the men were much stronger than her and out
The King's virgin bride 30. This is distressing.
Selene didn't know what to do; her desperate cries left the guards just as distressed. They were torn between helping the king and keeping the bandits imprisoned. The assailant had fallen to the ground once again, as if he had fainted due to his exertion. However, they couldn't afford to let their guard down, just as they had learned.Moisture trickled from Frederick's side down to his leg. The pain felt like scorching hot coals, and he placed a hand on his side as his vision began to blur. Would he die? Was this how his life would end? The pain left him breathless, and Frederick didn't want to close his eyes. He fought to stay awake, especially for Selene, but with each passing second, that task became increasingly impossible."Frederick," Selene's voice was torn by pain and anguish. Her face was bathed in tears, and her heart was pierced by thousands of daggers."My Lady," one of the guards called, touching her shoulder. Selene recoiled at the guard's actions and cried out in despai
The King's virgin bride 31. Selene!
The maids bowed their heads in a sign of respect, while the woman who responded incorrectly had to bite her tongue and accept Selene's command."As you command, my Lady," she whispered through clenched teeth.Selene looked at the women for a long moment."There is something else I need from all of you, and it's imperative that you understand this clearly. No one, absolutely no one, can know what has happened here. You are strictly prohibited from speaking, murmuring, or even mentioning the king's name," Selene ordered. She hated sounding authoritarian or imperious, but Frederick's life was more important than anything else.The maids nodded again, though not all of them were able to remain silent."The Queen Mother has to be informed," the woman protested.Selene fixed her gaze on the woman, and her demeanor changed in the eyes of the maids, especially that defiant woman."If the Queen Mother or anyone else finds out, none of you will remain in this house. Have I made myself clear?" s
The King's virgin bride 32. My King
"Selene... My Selene""I'm here, Your Majesty," she whispered.Selene placed the letter on the table and approached Frederick, she touched his forehead to measure his temperature, it was still warm, but it no longer seemed to burn as it had before."I'm here, I'm not going anywhere," she promised, taking his hand and squeezing it between her fingers.Frederick moved restlessly, his heart was agitated by memories that placed Selene in grave danger."My Lady, I will not allow anything bad to happen to you," Frederick murmured, furrowing his brow. "No matter if I have to give my life," he added with pain.Selene couldn't help her tears from overflowing down her cheeks as she heard what Frederick was willing to do for her. A heaviness formed in her heart, what had she done for him? Nothing! She had done nothing, she had accused and challenged him. She had done many things she shouldn't have done, but it was too late for regret, all she could do was improve the things she had done wrong in
