"In the dresser right over there." She pointed towards the dresser across from the bed.He looked back towards the dresser and then back at her. "Oh... I see. Well, it looks like we won't be needing any of those then."She looked at him questioningly, not understanding his intentions at all. "Why?"He simply grinned at her, then walked over to the dresser and opened it up."What are you doing?" She exclaimed in shock.He looked up at her with a devilish grin on his lips as he pulled out two sets of underwear. One pair consisted of sheer black silk panties which were cut rather low. The other pair were very short and very sheer."Do you want to play or not?" He queried, a mischievous glint in his eye.She laughed loudly as she watched him walk toward the bathroom. She knew that he intended to give her another round of sex. Although he had said that he wasn't going to force himself on her, he certainly was making it seem as though he intended to do just that."Wait!" She called after h
She frowned disapprovingly at him. "Well that's not fair to blame me on!"He laughed. "Fair or not, it's still the truth."Suddenly, her frown deepened. "But why are you telling me this?" She questioned suspiciously. "Did something happen?""Well... It might surprise you but... I'm actually here for something else entirely." He admitted sheepishly."You're here for what exactly?""I was just trying to change the subject earlier." He replied nonchalantly. "You wanted to play, remember? So I thought we'd go outside and get us some fresh air.""We have fresh air right here!" She complained, throwing her hands up in exasperation. He smirked as he got up and walked towards her, grabbing both of her hands and holding it tightly within his. "Are you sure?" He inquired with a hint of teasing in his tone, raising her hand to his mouth.She blushed crimson red when she realised that her fingers were still intertwined within his. He placed his lips on her index finger first. After that he p
She shook her head firmly. "No, I wasn't angry. Although I probably would have been a lot angrier if it hadn't been for the fact that I was extremely grateful that you were here. If I could take back the past few hours... I would."He smiled weakly. "I love you, Celine." He whispered tenderly as he wrapped her in his arms."I love you too, Roman." She whispered, nuzzling her nose against his neck.They remained like that for a while until their breakfast arrived, which consisted of pancakes and waffles. The two ate quietly while staring into each other's eyes lovingly. Their breakfast ended soon afterwards, prompting them to return to their rooms. Roman decided to accompany her back to her room since he insisted that he didn't mind accompanying her to her room. He also brought her to where her luggage was located, along with her bag. Once they arrived, he took his suitcase, handing it to her before walking ahead of her to unlock the door. As they entered her room, she glanced around
He couldn't help but wonder why she liked staying at the house so much. Sure, he enjoyed spending time with his friends, but the house was quiet without her. Even though they spent most of the day at her room, it still wasn't quite the same. He missed hearing her laugh. Hell, he missed seeing her smile. But the reason why he had been more open to stay longer was because the first time he saw her face lit up when she saw him, it changed everything.His eyes trailed over to Celine's bedroom door slowly opening, revealing his girlfriend. Her blue eyes scanned the hallway and found him almost instantly.She raised an eyebrow at him. "Where were you?" She asked curiously, taking a couple of steps closer to him.He shrugged, grinning lightly. "Out getting food." He responded simply.She let out a soft sigh, nodding her head in understanding. "Are you excited about tomorrow?" She questioned.He nodded eagerly. "Very much so. I'm looking forward to seeing all my family again. I haven't see
The maid gasped loudly. "My goodness! I didn't try to force you into doing anything!" She exclaimed indignantly."Then why did you call it 'tea with honey'?" She questioned curiously.The maid bit her lip nervously. "It's a nickname." She mumbled shyly.Celine narrowed her eyes at her suspiciously. "A nickname?""Yeah. I've always thought it was funny. I mean it sounds a little weird but it's also cute, right?" She asked with a grin.Ariana stared blankly at her for a moment before bursting out in laughter, shaking her head in amusement."Miss, are you laughing at me?" The maid accused playfully."Of course not! Oh, how could you think that? How could anyone ever imagine that it was possible to be mean to someone just because they have a nickname?" She asked incredulously.The maid giggled softly, nodding her head. "Yes, of course. I apologize." She said sincerely, bowing her head respectfully.Celine waved her hand dismissively. "It's fine, really." She told her sincerely."Is the
Her brows furrowed slightly before realization dawned upon her. "Oh! I'm sorry sir! That's why I didn't wake you up." She apologized sheepishly. "Lady Celine sent me to wake you up." She informed him.Roman frowned. "Did she?""Yes. She told us that Lady Celine has requested that we serve lunch in her room instead." She explained.He pursed his lips in distaste. "Tell her that I am not very hungry." He instructed."Okay." She murmured, turning around to leave.He couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed though. It had been a while since he ate something. A part of him was almost tempted to take it from her but he knew that he couldn't risk taking from someone without permission. And considering that the princess was his wife, he could hardly do that. He sighed heavily, lying back down in his bed as he rubbed his temples tiredly.He wondered how long this trip was going to take."Your Majesty, I'm afraid we won't be staying for much longer." An old man announced as he held open the
She glanced over at her siblings, noting their conversation. She wondered why they were talking amongst themselves and not paying attention to the woman in the corner of the room. Then again, it wasn't like any of them could possibly understand what the woman was saying, especially when they weren't paying attention to her.She turned her attention back towards the woman in the corner. Suddenly, she felt herself being pushed forward onto her knees before falling backwards onto the ground with a yelp."Wake up, Your Majesty." The woman ordered harshly as she grabbed Celine by the shoulders.A moment later, the older woman let go of Ariana's shoulders, grabbing her by the arm and dragging her behind her as she made her way towards the staircase. The blonde struggled against her grip, wanting nothing more than to run back to her siblings and demand answers from them, to find out what was going on, but found that she couldn't move. After all, the older woman easily overpowered her. The
"The woman from yesterday." Celine replied hesitantly. "I don't know what she's doing here. I mean... She seems like a noblewoman. Why does she seem so interested in me though?" She trailed off."I guess she just wants to make sure you're okay." Her brother suggested."But why? Doesn't she know that I'm married?" She asked, furrowing her eyebrows.He hesitated briefly before replying. "Maybe she knows."The ravenette rolled her eyes. "Whatever, Just let's go now.""Wait, I forgot my book!" Her brother exclaimed, running out of the dining hall and disappearing somewhere outside."Prince Roman! You shouldn't have forgotten your book!" His mother called after him, chasing after him quickly."Sorry Mother." He apologized, returning seconds later holding his copy of The Little Prince in his hands.Celine rolled her eyes as she gazed over at the beautiful painting on the wall next to them. "That looks amazing." She commented.He nodded eagerly, taking his seat next to her once again. "Rig
King Roman finally get all of he ever wanted the throne, peace and his family back without any disturbing, he feels so happy to raise his children together with his beloved wife Celine.Celine was finally able to get out from the cursed and finally together with King Roman."Celine, let me take you into the magical garden there."Celine nodded and King Roman kept holding her hand.He kissed her hands and she smiled happily at him.The two got out of the castle and started walking in the garden.It wasn't just the normal garden but a magic garden that could make plants grow from anything.They went through the garden and when they get to a small pond near the garden Celine jumped into the water.She swims around happily and laughs as she looks up from the water.When she comes back out she saw that the king hasn't follow her so she looked over where she last seen him.He was standing right at the edge of the pond looking at something that made him smile like never before.Her husband a
Unfortunately, this didn’t stop his heart from breaking a little whenever they cried or when they woke up screaming in the middle of the night, scared of monsters or demons, unable to control themselves. Sometimes, Roman wondered if he should try to help them somehow, but then he remembered what happened the previous day. If he had interfered, then the kidnappers would have gotten away with everything, and Celine and his daughters would have died. Instead, he decided to ignore them, pretending as if nothing had happened and letting the incident be completely forgotten. This way, Celine could have a normal life again, and he could finally sleep without worrying about her.As Roman went through that process of ignoring and forgetting about the incident, he gradually began to grow tired. Despite that fact, he stayed up until late into the night before finally falling asleep.When he woke up the next morning, the sun was shining brightly and he could hear birds singing outside in the
Slowly and cautiously, he moved his gaze toward the direction that he thought he had seen the source of the noise coming from. And suddenly, he realized that the source of the sound had been Celine’s hand. She was clutching her left hand tightly in both of hers and she had begun rocking herself back and forth in a small circle. The movements weren’t violent, though, but rather rhythmic, and were definitely something that Roman recognized as something she frequently did when she was upset.It wasn’t that Roman was surprised that Celine was having trouble sleeping or that he was worried that she might be feeling uncomfortable. After all, she had been through quite a bit today, and it was understandable that she might feel that way. But what shocked him was that she was apparently doing it in the middle of the night instead of at the usual hour when he would normally be waking her up to ask her if she needed anything. It was odd behaviour for her, especially after what had happened
So, he would wait. He would patiently try to support his wife, and he would try to be there for her, and he would do his best to make sure that she was always happy. But above all else, he would have to keep reminding himself to stay calm. No matter how angry he was, no matter how hard he tried, he wouldn’t be able to break down if he were to lose his composure. And if he broke down, there was no doubt that he would never forgive himself. Not for something like that. He might not understand what it was like to live with her constantly and watch her suffer, but he didn’t want to find out what the outcome might be if he actually broke down. So, for the sake of his family, he would remain strong and hold himself together. That way, if things did end up getting rough, he had a chance to save what little remained of his family and his sanity.And that was all that really mattered. Everything else, everything else was just distractions.His thoughts were broken away from their current tr
It had become quite clear over the course of the last two weeks that he wasn’t going to be able to keep pushing Celine as far as he normally would have. It pained him to see her hurting like this. He understood, logically speaking, that she was still in a fragile place mentally, but it seemed that the more time that passed by and the more painful memories that surfaced, the less he wanted to push her. So, in order to help her move forward, he would have to allow her to talk to him, but only after she had been cleared for release. He was going to be patient with her, however long it took. In fact, he would be patient for years if it meant that he would eventually be granted the opportunity to help her heal and grow stronger.Roman sighed deeply and ran his fingers through his hair before turning his attention back to the book resting on his lap. It was nearing the end of the third chapter and he had already finished reading through it three times. This was the fourth time he had re
Celine continued crying quietly, occasionally letting out a small whimper or sniffle, until she finally lost the ability to hold back anymore. She sat against the cold white tiles, hugging herself tightly and allowing her body to relax as much as it possibly could. A part of her wished that she didn’t need to be rescued, that she could just fall asleep and never wake up again. Or that someone would come in and save her from everything else. Maybe Roman would come back after work and sweep her up into his arms and carry her to bed. Perhaps she could convince him to stay. To spend forever with her. To be happy together.But no matter how desperately she hoped that was going to happen, it wasn’t going to happen. Because he wouldn’t be back for another week and even if he was, that wouldn’t give her enough time to convince him that her problems were truly worth helping her deal with. It just wasn’t realistic.She wasn’t going to lie. It hurt. There was a part of her that still loved h
Roman sat down at the other end of the counter, turning his head so that his eyes were looking up at her. He had a soft smile on his face and she was unable to avoid smiling back. She loved when he smiled like that. It made her feel warm inside. It brought back memories of simpler times that she wished she could forget. When they were both young and in love. When things between them weren’t complicated or hard to work through. Before everything had gone so wrong and they were separated by miles upon miles of ocean. Before they had even met. “So…what happened?” he asked hesitantly.“What do you mean?”“Well last night was kind of weird…and today isn’t exactly the best situation either, so what happened last night that has you so upset?”“Don’t worry about it,” she mumbled.“It doesn’t look like you want to talk about it,” he pointed out. “And honestly, I think it would probably make you feel better if I knew what was going on. We don’t know each other that well yet…we hardly know
The next morning, when Celine awoke, Roman was lying on the couch, facing her, sound asleep. His arm was slung over the top of her torso and he was snoring gently into her shoulder. He looked peaceful as his eyebrows were relaxed and his mouth hung slightly open. For a split second, he looked younger and less exhausted than he usually did. His hair was disheveled, sticking out at odd angles and there was an obvious flush on his face due to the heat radiating from the heater. Her heart fluttered in her chest at the sight. He looked so adorable and it gave her butterflies to see him looking so tired and worn out. She reached up with her hands to push some of his messy curls away from his forehead before running her fingers lightly over his temples, pushing them downwards gently as she did so. His eyes fluttered for a moment and she thought he was about to wake up, but instead, he nuzzled into her hand, sighing contently as he continued to drift further and further towards slumber.A
Roman nodded quickly, standing up and walking swiftly towards the kitchen. He rummaged around inside the medicine cabinet for a bit, searching through the various bottles until he managed to find a bottle which he immediately popped open and handed to her. She took it gingerly and swallowed down two capsules. She glanced up at him and smiled gratefully. “Thanks.”“You’re welcome. How are you feeling anyway? Are you really alright?”She nodded. “Yeah. I’m fine. A little dizzy, maybe. But I’ll manage. It’s just exhaustion.”He frowned slightly. “But you just said that it’s been three weeks. What happened? Have you not slept for three weeks now?”“I told you, Roman. My body is just adjusting to everything that happened. That’s all. Don’t worry about it. Please, stop asking questions. You’re making me uncomfortable.”Roman sighed and sat back down on the couch, taking her hand into his again. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked so many questions.”“No, no, you’re fine. Just please stop
