The King's virgin bride 44. Will you come to me?
Frederick needed to accelerate the royal wedding urgently and sneak away to get married in any chapel or village church. It wasn't an option, as if that information were to leak, malicious comments from the kingdom's subjects would only fall on Selene. The king released a heavy sigh and decided to stop thinking about it for a moment. Resting peacefully by his side was his fiancée, and the sight was the most special he could have imagined-rosy cheeks, disheveled and loose hair, the curve of her waist, and her naked hips next to her leg. It all made his body react, but he had to control himself. Selene wasn't accustomed to it; her body was still getting used to new sensations, and he knew she would be resentful afterward for the activity they had engaged in. Moreover, they hadn't eaten anything since the previous evening.Carefully, Frederick moved Selene's body off him and let her rest a bit longer while he went to the bathroom for a quick bath, having only a canteen with fresh water.
The King's virgin bride 45. I need it
"Please, my lord," Selene whispered over his lips, and he couldn't refuse. He took his fiancée's lips and melted into a passionate kiss that warmed every single one of his nerve endings, the cold disappeared, replaced by a blazing heat.As if it were a trick of destiny in his favor, the downpour intensified. The sounds of everything outside were overshadowed by the intense noise of the raindrops falling on the carriage's roof and windows.Frederick slid his hand beneath Selene's skirt; the mere contact with the smooth skin of his fiancée made him growl, and she moaned at this long-awaited touch. Selene moved slowly, opening her legs to grant access to that hand, which felt like fire wherever it touched."Selene..." the king whispered, trying to control his desire and waiting for her to ask him to stop because they weren't in the best place."Shhhh," she silenced him, putting a finger on his lips and biting hers. With her gaze, she let him know how much she had missed him and that she

Selene was tense, feeling as if everyone could know her secret just by looking at her. She wanted to turn around and run back to the carriage.Frederick felt the weight of Selene's hand on his, so he turned his head gently and met his fiancée's frightened eyes."Does she know?" Selene asked with her lips, making no sound. Frederick didn't understand the question, so he looked at her for a few seconds until he understood what she imagined the queen was thinking. Immediately, he softly shook his head."No, calm down," he replied in the same manner she had.Calmness returned to Selene's mind and body, although the curiosity to know what the queen and the king were talking about was something she had to fight against. She couldn't ask, let alone try to be part of the conversation. A clearing of the throat brought her out of her thoughts."Won't you introduce me to your fiancée?" Sam asked, and Selene chuckled softly. The young princess had spoken in a high-pitched tone, as if trying to dr

"What is this?" Frederick asked, containing the anger he felt at that moment."Your Majesty, I'm sorry..." the timid man replied, "A man in the Royal Guard uniform, carrying a letter with your seal, went for the bandits who attacked you and your betrothed. Everything seemed to be in order, and my men did not hesitate to follow the written orders. We thought it was you’re doing."The Queen Mother rose as if driven by a greater force."What do you mean you've suffered an attack?" she immediately questioned.Frederick grimaced; he had completely forgotten that his mother hadn't been notified. In fact, no one in the palace knew, except the authorities, Selene, and his men who promised not to say anything about the attack, and, of course, the mastermind behind Selene's abduction. His eyes couldn't help but search for Henry; the Duke of Astor didn't seem so calm, and something inside him screamed that he was responsible. Unfortunately, there was no evidence against him."I'm fine, Mother. W
The King's virgin bride 48. I want everything from you
Selene turned around, startled, feeling her heart as if it was about to burst out of her chest. She had thought of taking a calm stroll alone, but she never imagined that Henry would dare to look for her, especially after she had distanced herself from him."Henry... What are you doing here?" she asked, her eyes glancing behind him, hoping that no one saw them alone and assumed the wrong thing."Selene, what's wrong?" Henry asked with a soft tone. "I missed you."Selene's eyes widened at those words, and her hands started to sweat nervously. The last thing she wanted was to have a misunderstanding with Frederick or, in the worst case, to be seen by the Queen or Samantha.Henry took a step closer to her, trying to approach and see if he could embrace her. But as he advanced, she stepped back and placed her hands between them, avoiding further closeness."What do you think you're doing?" Selene asked with a serious tone. "You know very well you shouldn't be here," she emphasized, and He

Their bodies fell onto the bed, satisfied and with their hearts racing."You're wonderful," Frederick murmured, kissing Selene's forehead."I love you," she replied with a slight smile, settling into Frederick's arms."I'm looking forward to our wedding; if I could advance it, I would without hesitation," he said.Selene shook her head."You can't do that; Samantha's birthday cannot be canceled," she reminded him."I know, my love," he sighed."Is there something bothering you?" Selene asked, noticing his troubled expression."Mom talked to me about her; she wants me to find a good husband for her, and honestly, I can't think of anyone suitable for Samantha. I wouldn't want to marry her off out of obligation, Selene. I want her to experience love," he said."I'd like to help you; however, I don't know any suitable gentlemen," she said, falling silent.Frederick pondered his options for a moment; he knew many important people in the kingdom, and any of them would be more than happy to
The King's virgin bride 50. You don't understand
Frederick smiled like a fool; his heart beat strongly just imagining Selene as his wife and not having to hide to make her his whenever they desired. He was sure that the passion running through his body was the same Selene felt every time she was with him.The king hadn't felt so happy since he ascended to the throne; his life had become one commitment after another, all for the people of Astor. Selene came into his life when he didn't know he needed her and almost ruined everything at the beginning. Back then, he had no reason to trust her, and he could never have imagined that the girl would become his world and his reason for being. A sigh escaped his lips along with a sob nearby.Frederick thought it was Selene, so he quickened his pace, fearing the worst. However, it wasn't his young and beloved fiancée who was crying, but his mother."Mother," he called.Leonor lifted her tear-streaked face; she bit her lip to keep from screaming with all her might, but seeing Frederick in fron

Samantha awaited Henry's reaction, but he either stood stupefied or, more accurately, feigned being dumbfounded at her confession. His hand paused in the air, withdrawing it from the young princess's cheek."Aren't you going to say anything?" she asked with a racing heart."Your Highness," he addressed her formally, "there's nothing I can do to prevent an engagement with another man."Samantha took a step back at Henry's response."I thought you cared, that you worried about me," Samantha sobbed."And I do, Your Highness, but... who can oppose the wishes of His Majesty? I am not the brave knight who will rescue you, to my misfortune.""What do you mean, Henry?" she asked, determined to call him by his name, breaking the rules."I can fight for you, Your Highness, but there's no way I can go against the power of the King, especially if he has the approval of the Queen Mother. However, there's something you can do.""What is it, Henry? Tell me, and I'll do whatever it takes to prevent b
