-Karen-I woke up later to Conor holding me tightly in his arms. He was asleep and the fire was slowly dying. It was nighttime. I must have slept all day. That really sent me off the cliff. I caressed his cheek like he liked and watched his lips curl up into a small smile. He opened his right eye and peeked at me. “Hey beautiful.” He cupped my cheek and rubbed my lips with his thumb. “Are you alright? And if not, what can I do to get you back to being well?”I leaned down and kissed him deeply. “I’m sorry-” I started to apologize when he stopped me.“No… Don’t apologize, honey. I just want you to be okay.” He murmured with a warm smile. “I want to see you smile and know that you’re going to be alright.” I curled up and hugged him tightly. He kissed my forehead and then my lips. I think I will be- Even if it takes a while. “Make out with me?” He suggested with his boyish grin. I want to but my face is all wet.“You want to make out with a soppy flower?” I asked with a raised eyebrow. I
-Karen-I tried to scramble away from him, but he pounced on me and started tickling me all over again. I yelled for him to stop but he pinned me to the bed and tickled me for thirty minutes until we were laughing and breathing so hard, we coughed repeatedly. He spanked my butt twice and then pulled me into his lap and started kissing me all over again. He is fun! Really fun! And these kisses, it’s like a fire in my veins. There’s no other way to describe this sensation.“Kay…” Conor whispered my name in my ear. I looked over at him from the corner of my eye and we kissed again. “We should probably go to bed soon…” I frowned while he laughed. “Don’t give me that look.” Fine. How about this then! I pouted at him. He laughed again and then kissed me deeply. “Come on you sexy woman. Bedtime.” I sighed and got off his lap, crawling up to the pillows. We cuddled down together falling asleep in each other’s arms.I woke up before him the next day and decided to experiment with what I had le
-Karen-Now that I was going to break out of my comfort zone, I nodded and left the main room quietly. I grabbed a simple looking violet dress with a small ruffle over the bust and slippers since the ground was particularly cold today. I joined him in the shower a few minutes later. Conor had already gotten the water running and towels out for us. I can’t believe I’m going to shower with a man. Forget he’s a prince- He’s so handsome… And the way I felt when he was moving against me. I felt my cheeks get hot.“Hey!” Conor snapped his fingers in my face trying to get my attention. “Are you sure you’re okay? You were just staring at me. Do you want to lay down for a bit?” He took my clothes, set them on the counter and then focused back on me.“I’m fine… I was just lost in thought is all.” I answered trying not to let my emotions trip me up. “I- I just liked the way I felt.” A lot! I trailed off as I carefully undressed in front of him. I want to feel that way again! He kissed my hair a
-Karen-I immediately looked over unsure what to think about that. He howled with laughter as I stood there trying to think of what to say or do. “How about chicken? I wanna shake it up today. Sound good to you?”I finished dressing and nodded. “Enjoy the rest of your shower, Conor.” I replied sweetly shutting the door behind me. I walked away from the door as quickly as I could. Well, it wasn’t as awkward as I thought it would be.There was a knock on the door. I went to answer but the door opened before I could get there. Joanne came in the room followed by Bart. They had brought a basket of snacks. “Morning!” She exclaimed brightly, setting the basket on the table. Bart shut the main door while Joanne walked up to the shower door. I went to say something, but Bart motioned for me to stop. “I heard my favorite cousin wasn’t feeling well- Are you alive in there?” Five minutes of silence and then the door opened. “I’m perfectly fine Jo, but I didn’t want to have to deal with soldiers
I woke up to Joanne sitting next to me and Bart writing at the table. “Kay! Hey honey, how’re you feeling?” Joanne asked softly. She brushed my bangs out of my face and hugged me. I heard him get up and come over to us.“Conor and I decided to sedate you so if you feel off, that’s why.” Bart explained as he placed the metal disc on my chest. “Breathe deeply.” I complied as he moved the disc around.“Is that why I feel heavy?” I asked sleepily. Bart and Joanne both nodded. “Oh…” I rolled over to Joanne and snuggled up to her. “It’s okay Karen. We will protect you no matter what. You’re a part of our family and we will protect our own.” Joanne assured softly. I felt her kiss my cheek and hug me again. I’m family?“I completely agree. Conor's running late… I told him she would probably wake up around the time drills were over.” Bart muttered from behind me.“I miss him.” I whispered thinking about Conor. “Wake me up when he gets here please?”“Sure… Rest up, okay? We’ll guard you honey.
-Karen-The next day I woke up alone but there was a solitary yellow rose under my hand. Attached to the rose was a note: ‘Hey my pretty flower, if you’re up to it, I thought you might like to practice with your crystal. I’m stopping by my father’s study so I might be a little bit late. I can’t wait to see you. Miss you! CWV’. I got up clutching the rose and note to my chest. I quietly opened the door and, Clay, the usual servant stood up and bowed to me. I frowned in reply. “I must show my respect to the Prince’s Mistress, My Lady.” He said pointedly. “With all due respect, you should probably grow accustomed to this. It won’t go away.” I nodded sadly. “Porridge? With berries?” He asked with a warm smile. Oh! Porridge!“Yes please. May I have some milk too? If it’s not too much trouble?” I asked as he started to turn away. “Of course, My Lady.” He bowed politely and left quickly. I shut the door and leaned against it. I inhaled the rose’s sweet aroma and decided to get dressed up.
-Karen-I opened the armoire and picked the first dress I saw. I knew it was a dark shade of violet. I grabbed the closest set of black dress flats. I shut the armoire and ran to the shower. I put my new clothes on the vanity and pulled my clothes off as fast as I could. “In a rush?” Conor asked from the shower. I walked up him and started making out with him. “Mm… I like your kisses Kay.” We made out under the water. I can’t get enough. I’m going to lose my mind!“I want to practice but I really wanna keep kissing you…” I admitted looking down feeling embarrassed at the admission. He chuckled and kissed me again.“Let’s finish our shower, we can eat and then practice… And then when I get you back into our bed, I’ll give you all the kisses you want. Sound good?” Conor asked as he immersed himself in the water. I slowly let the water cover me as I watched him. I’m becoming obsessed. I see him and I think a thousand thoughts in an instant. I kiss him and I feel such a fire spring to lif
-Karen-Finish on me? I mean… I guess? I nodded at him as he crawled over me. He leaned down and started kissing again. “Stay still.” He whispered in my ear. He went back to kissing me with reckless abandon so I pulled him down to me enough so I could kiss his neck and chest. I felt something hard start rubbing on me and it made the fiery sensation run even more rampant. “This feels so good.” He changed pace from quick short strokes to longer and more intense ones which made me moan out of pleasure. Then his lips found mine even despite the moans, all the emotions and feelings were driving me wild. A moment later he rose above me and I felt something warm land on my belly. A second later, another warm spot a few inches away. He sighed immediately after looking rather relieved.“I feel so much better now but it’s your turn.” Conor instructed. He started to take my hand, but I shook my head at him.“I’m fine… As long as you’re taken care of, that’s what counts.” I replied quickly. I hav
