The Royal Arrangement Chapter 1
Chapter 1BRYNN'S POVHe has chestnut brown hair that curves neatly on the forehead. His shiny white skin clashes with the vibrant magnolia printed shirt he has on. He's cradling the new VS's showstopper in his arms and casually framing a kiss on her neck, slowly parting her gorgeous black hair to the small of her back. She looks ethereal. He looks distracted. Ryker is staring hard at me.I'm sipping my chardonnay at this lonely boat cruise I happened to be invited to at the last minute. The stars are gleaming and abundant in the night sky. It's possibly standing in as the head manager of this colossal management company that comes with its own outrageous perks. Some of them include being covert while getting paid well. Also, not looking behind your back all the damn time. And the lesser know perks include flirting with royalty at your own will.The kind that the lesser people never have a clue about what goes on in the lives of royal men.I don't know what attracted me to Ryker. Un
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 2
Chapter 2RYKERI haven't seen a woman like Brynn before. Hot, calculating, and seductive. The woman knows how to charm the pants off of anyone. She smiles, and people melt at her feet. She gives them a look, and they are at her beck and call to fulfil all of her wishes. It's sad she comes from a middle-class family. It's not that her means are meagre. She's an independent, self-made woman. It would have been easier for us in the long term if she came from a well-esteemed family. I wish she were an upper-class woman. It might run better with my grandmama. My grandma can tolerate mediocrity in a bloodline, but again, even she has her limits. But if Brynn was a tasteful actress, I have a strong feeling in my gut that my grandmama would have liked her.Not to mention, my grandma keeps constant tabs on me. And let's not forget my mother. My security details keep updating her about everything that goes on with me. Everybody is in the loop about the things I do. They get informed. They know
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 3
Chapter 3BRYNNLiving my slow, rustic life in the countryside of Kent was droll. The houses on the land stood on the yellow sand made of oast, ragstone and timber as if they were an escape from the city. Perfect little rows of vintage houses lined the group of counties that made up Kent. The place where my family put their roots down was a small, quaint village in the countryside, and my family could never imagine who would want to leave this perfectly serene village. I was the person who didn't want to be there. It was my parents' fantasy of a perfect life and their chosen suffering. I felt far from it.I wanted to change the way my family did things. I wanted to make a life that was better for me. I envisioned being different from what everyone wanted me to be. I was scared I would be as they were and how they chose to lead their lives. I wanted to make a life that was outside the world they had built for me. I was willing to work myself hard and work eighteen hours a day, despite
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 4
Chapter 4RYKER"Honey," I holler at him. My bodyguard gives me a petrifying look. He's looking at me with a face which says, 'what does this dude want from me now?' Little does he know, I revel in the annoyance I shower at him. He's the only comedic relief in my life. I can't do much better without him. This man is responsible for my needs, as my grandma has dictated. I ought to have my fun with him. "Honey," I yell again, "Can you get me a can of beer while you're at it?" He's putting away the things I put on a grocery list for him to buy and bring back with him. When I have women over, I want them to feel at home. It's not an empty promise that I make. I stick with what I have to say. So, it only makes sense I make my new bachelor pad as homely as possible.I told Brynn I would be on top of things so we could have tropical fruits in the fridge when she visits. We are sexting a lot these days, and somehow mangoes have become foreplay. I blame the emoticons on my phone.Once I ment
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 5
Chapter 5BRYNN"Seeing myself vulnerable is a difficult thing. I don't let people in easily. When I let Mark in, I thought maybe he was someone I could trust with not breaking my heart. It was not all about me wanting a relationship. It's about letting someone in to love me, and it's not easy. Love has never been easy for me." The woman sitting in the black velvet chair shrugs in place, trying hard to steel her face from showing the emotions she's feeling. A break or two in her voice escapes as she continues to tell her story."I think I never allowed myself to love anyone or anything. From a young age, I didn't have anyone. My parents never came to visit me, so I just put up this wall where you really have to work hard against them to see what it's like on the inside. What I'm like on the inside." She shrugs again. "I don't let anyone get close to me.""You've said something so profound, Claire." The auditioner continues talking. "Will you say you've never made sense of the grey ar
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 6
Chapter 6BRYNNMy heart thumps against its walls when the words of Ryker run through my eardrum. I wonder what it would be like to be sandwiched between two people, having them kiss and caress me. I've never been that girl who experiments. But I can feel my toes curl with warmth, and my breath sizzles with the prospects that tonight could bring. I can hear the curls between my legs bloom into a pure pink flower at this very instance.Would it be intoxicating? Would it be fun?Would it be as sexual as I think it would be?The idea seems all too scandalous to me.I come from an entirely conventional, conservative upbringing. And just the thought of having someone join in with us inside the bedroom sends a thrill down my spine. My whole body shivers. I touch my lips with my fingers wondering what it would be like to have a woman kiss me.Thoughts of my friend laughing at me one evening when I was still at the university run discordantly in my head. I remember her high-pitched laughter
The Royal Arrangement Chapter 7
Chapter 7BRYNNIf I thought this would be carnal, I was this close to being proved wrong. Calling this incident 'carnal' would have been an understatement that doesn't reflect Ryker's skills in the bedroom. Ryker is a beast in bed. He's sex on the limbs. His breath sizzles down the nape of my neck when he hugs me and caresses me gently at the exposed skin of my waist, and I let out an intoxicating sigh. I never thought being with him would be this good.To be honest, I never knew what to expect when I was around him. What can you even begin to expect from someone who is goddamn royalty? You can never be ready for what you are going to get.He keeps you enticed.Wondering.Walking on your tippy toes.Eyes open.Mouth slightly agape.He's a prince, for fuck's sake, and when you are with him, you would never want to expect anything more than what he was willing to give you. So I didn't. I couldn't have asked anything more than that from him apart from his presence in my life. I'm not a
