“My king, the princess will be in the palace in about an hour,”Patrick informed which made him remember that he had a meeting with the princess, he almost forgot, she would have hated him. “Sure Patrick, I will be waiting for her,”He responded. “Wait, are you still in bed? I didn’t want to disturb you as I know what you are up to but you are still sleeping now? It’s almost three pm”Patrick let out and Lance resisted the urge to roll his eyes. “Patrick, I will be there,”He told him and hung up, he turned to see Sophie watching him, he smiled at her and got off the bed, he needed to go take a shower and get ready to meet the princess, he couldn’t shower here because he would want Sophie with him and they might end up fucking in the shower instead of bathing, he picked up his clothes where he had left them and started wearing them. “I am meeting with the princess, after that, I will be back for you,”He said. He didn’t think much about it until he saw the way she looked at him an
Sophie couldn’t help the smile that was on her face, she just couldn’t stop smiling after the king left, like he left a smile on her face with how well he made love to her and how he had assured her that she was the only one right now, it shouldn’t have made her happy but it did. Being the only woman that the king desired felt like something out of a fantasy. The king, the things they have done together felt like some kind of dream and that she might wake up from the dream. She smiled at her reflection in the mirror, she had that after-glow that he had left her with. Even though he left only a couple of hours ago, she wanted him back already. The whole day, whenever she thought of how he had reassured her and made sure he only wanted her, she would blush and smile happily, even her baby seemed to be aware of her happy mood because for the first time, the baby moved hard and she felt it. It was magical for her and she shared a few happy tears. She wished she could keep the joy in her
“I want to be with you and I don’t want us to be together without a label, I would like for you to be my girlfriend, Soph, I want to be a normal thirty-plus-old man with you, not the king or any royal personal, just your man,”He continued. He was doing this on purpose, he was setting her up with the way he spoke, setting her up by making her believe the impossible might be possible. “Will be my girlfriend, pretty Sophie?”He asked with a smile that sent her heart into overdrive. “I don’t know how to be the king’s girlfriend,” She said. “Just be Lancelot’s girlfriend,”he urged, she couldn’t bring herself to say no, not when he was looking at her like that. “Yes, I will be your girlfriend,”She said and he let go of her hands and did a little dramatic happy dance that made her laugh. He was so different with her now, all the other images of him that she had were completely forgotten, in their place was a loving man that she wanted to keep with her forever. “Good, now, will my gi
Lance woke up to Sophie sleeping in his arms, he couldn’t help the smile that crippled to his lips. Just watching her sleep made him feel so at peace, Lance knew for a fact that he was in big trouble with the woman sleeping beside him. She didn’t even need to do anything to get his attention, all he could see was her and nothing else, being with her put his mind at ease and it wasn’t just about the sex, it was her, she was good for him and he had every intention of keeping her with him for a long time and he made sure she was aware of that fact. He wasn’t about to let her go when doing that would be like shooting himself. When spoke to the princess yesterday, he couldn’t count the number of times they had talked about her and then the princess told him that he was whipped for her and pointed out how his smile grew when he mentioned her name, he couldn’t even deny it. She had him in a chokehold and there was nothing he could do about it. “Stop looking at me like that, Your Majesty,”
Lance frowned when his mind went back to how things had ended with Sophie this morning, he couldn’t figure out why something as small and simple as that could be the reason they had their first couple fight when they officially became a couple less than ten hours earlier. He wanted to fix things so fast and wished the meeting he was in would end fast. But he knew that even if the meeting ended, he still had other meetings to attend before he could see her again. His eyes went to Patrick and saw him watching him with a questioning look on his face, he turned away and concentrated on the meeting. He hated visual meetings so much but that seemed to be the trend now and there was nothing he could do to change that. Everyone in the world was doing it so he had to do it too. After two long agonizing hours, the meeting finally came to an end, not like he got most of the things that were said. It was at times like this that he was happy he had Patrick as his right-hand man because he always
“Wait, what?”He let out. He came at the right time because he hated to think that she would have been alone if Patrick had not told him to go talk to her.“The baby, I lost my baby,”She broke down, he looked at her in shock, why would she think that? “Darling, Sophie? Stop crying please and tell me what is going on, why would you think you lost your baby?”Lance asked in fear, that was not what he expected her to say, it was worst. Now he wished she was crying because of their fight because that would be easy to fix, not the baby, she couldn’t lose the baby, it would break her and he didn’t want that. It has to be some kind of mistake or she was just overthinking. “Hey, baby, calm down and talk to me; why do you think you lost the baby,”He asked, looking around her for anything that would have given her that thought, surely there had to be something that triggered it. He didn’t find anything that would indicate that she did. She refused to answer his questions. He didn’t even kno
The ride to the hospital was a very hard one, Sophie refused to stop crying so he gave up trying to make her stop and instead just patted her back continuously. Patrick couldn’t come with them because he had to attend meetings on his behalf. “My king, we are almost there, we will be the ones to take her in,”One of the guards said from the front of the car and Lance glared at him. Why would he let them take her when he was in the car with her? “Says who?”He asked in an irritated voice. “Sorry my king, that’s what your lord Patrick said,”He told him. He should have known that the crazy man would give some unneeded advice when he didn’t try to stop him from getting in the car with her. “There will be no need for that, if I can’t take her in why would I be here? We are entering through the private entrance are we not?”He asked. If they were talking because of the press finding out then they should know that he didn’t care. “Yes, my king, I am sorry,”The guard said and Lance igno
Sophie lowered her gaze as she walked with Lance towards his chamber, she had asked him to let her go to the emerald house when they arrived back at the palace but he refused and told her that she had to deal with him for the next couple of days as he had no plans of leaving her on her own there. He was holding her so close with so many people around and he didn’t even look like he cared, he paused when they got close to his door and collected the bag that contained the drugs and vitamins that she was given at the hospital from the guard that held it and dismissed them. He led her into the room and closed the door behind them. “Are we going to be on the news? Those photos that were taken today, will be published?”Sophie asked. When they were alone in the room. She knew it was her fault that they got exposed to the public and now she was scared that it might lead to a ruckus in the kingdom and expose him to many talks that he might not be ready to handle. “Don’t worry yourself about
