There is no They, Only Us." ~ Graffito.
-The river looked beautiful, the sound of the waterfall put her thoughts at ease. She always came here when she needed to think about her life, her Aunt, her cousin. Lucia striped of her dress, allowing herself to go for a swim. She was a pretty good swimmer. She dived in deep, when she got up to catch her breath, her blonde her was stuck to her skin and her nipples hard and pointy due to the water being a tad bit cold. Her forest green eyes flickered open as she took another breath of fresh air. She felt as if someone was watching her.
Lucia felt uncomfortable but most of all she felt scared stiff. She didn't want to die in the middle of the forest near a riverbank.
When she looked to her left she saw him... leaned against a tree looking at her. She quickly covered her breasts with her hands as a gasp escaped from her luscious lips. "My Prince, my apologies." She said her eyes searching for her dress and undergarments. She just needed to get dressed and leave this very awkward scene. "Allow me to be decent so I can be on my way—" She said her hands still covering her pearls, a smirk made its way onto his lips.
"I'm not holding you back, am I?" He gestured for her to wear her clothes right in his presence. "My Prince, I'm afraid not infront you." She panicked.
"Nothing new, I haven't seen." He shrugged, his hands in his pocket as he stayed rooted on his spot waiting for the beautiful mermaid to make her way out of the water butt naked. That really excited him, in all sorts of ways.
"Your highness, I do not mean to be impious but I will not move from here until you leave." Lucia affirmed.
"Then it's going to be a very long day, malady." He gave her a heart warming smile, it made her heart flatter, her skin quiver. "Call me Alexius." He said out of the blue. She had never pay attention to his name, she only knew him as the Prince and only the Prince.
"I would rather stick to your highness." Lucia replied softly. He looked at her, his scrutinizing stare made her feel uncomfortable but she wasn't going to back down. She would leave with her dignity intact, even if he is the Prince of Acamas... it didn't mean she would just willingly walk naked infront of him. Her cheeks flushed just at the thought of it.
"I don't even know your name ?" He said prudently.
"It's not important."
She had no idea where she got the confidence to speak to him the way she did but he didn't seem to mind.
"Are you going to stay still in that freezing cold water or are going to get dressed because frankly I can hear someone yelling Lucia—"He didn't need to say any more because with that she rushed out of the water as fast as she could. Quickly putting on her dress. His eyes glued to her curvy body and perky breasts, he felt his dick twitch in his slacks. He had been with many women but no one had ever affected him this way; with absolutely no touch. Lucia threw all her insecurities out the window as her only concern was to get dressed and leave before her aunt found her here with the Prince, she couldn't have them making assumptions.
"I'm assuming you are Lucia." He said with a grin.
"No, Lucia is my dog." She shrugged her shoulders, his chest rambled with laughter, right there and there... he decided he liked her.
Lucia.
Kyra finally made it to the riverbanks. The Prince hid behind some trees as he watched the scene. "Mother said you need to prepare dinner, it's almost late." The girl with brunette yelled at Lucia.
"No one has ever died from eating late you know, late as in its getting dark." Lucia retorted but Kyra looked confused.
"Whatever, you got the message." Kyra scowled.
"Right." Lucia nodded as she followed behind her cousin. She was so glad the Prince had not been seen by Kyra. Her cousin had an unhealthy obsession with the Prince infact the upper crust or rather the glitterati Haut monde.
-
The rest of the coming week, the Prince and Lucia met at the river they talked about their fears and what bothered them at night. Lucia started to feel things that she had never felt before, she didn't intend for it to go that far but it did.The Prince kissed her softly, it felt magical. Lucia liked it. He had been wanting to do that from the very first day he saw her. They had gone for a swim together and were both half naked. She laid on the Prince's expensive branded clothing. It was comfortable enough to do whatever they intended to do.
The Prince hovered over her body, he deepened the kiss. She let out an unexpected moan. His hands roamed around the soft buds of her nipples. She let her fingers roam in his golden locks. As he devoured her neck, the pace was soft and slow. She moaned a little louder when he squeezed her breasts. Whenever she met up with the Prince near the riverbanks, he would always make her feel good. It started off with a game of truth or dare and before they both knew it, The Prince had kissed her, The Prince had tasted her, The Prince was now about to take away purity.
She opened her legs to accommodate the Prince as he rubbed himself on her entrance. She gasped at how good it felt. She was already dripping moist for his touch. He had always told her that, he would show her what ecstasy felt like. He would make her forget about her problems at home, what he didn't tell her was he also needed to forget about his problems at the palace.
"This will hurt a bit, okay love ?" He whispered in her ear before nibbling on her ear lobe earning a moan, she nodded. He pressed the tip of his huge member onto her entrance, she yelped at how big he was. Lucia held onto his large shoulders as he pushed deeper, distracting her by attacking her lips with a soothing kiss.
"Does it still hurt ?" He asked his sapphire blue eyes staring directly into her forest green eyes. She shook her head. "A little bit-" she managed to say. He gave her a soothing kiss as he waited a bit for her to adjust to his size. This was the least comfortable place to be having sex but he couldn't exactly bring her to the palace or Lucia taking him home to her aunt. After a few minutes he started to move in and out of her. They were both in synch as they moved together. She moaned against his plump lips. The sound of birds chirping, water flowing, skin smacking against skin and muffled moans was the only audible thing. He let his hands roam around her delicate body as he touched her.
"Ah-le-ah-lexius.." She moaned, he groaned in satisfaction because this was the very first time she called him by his name. She always referred to him as my Prince.
He growled nibbling on her nipples.
"I can't-" she moaned in his ear.
"Just a little more, love." He said out of breath as he slammed into her at a faster pace. She was so tight.
Everytime her fingers ran through his hair, he groaned. Her vagina walls tightened around him giving the sign that she was about to reach her high. Their lips found each other again as he thrust into her, she almost yelled when she reached her climax but he immediately kissed her making it muffled. He gave her two last thrusts before he released inside her. She felt something warm and fuzzy inside her core, it was the most amazing feeling for the both of them.
He then laid a gently kiss on her forehead and pulled out.
"You were Perfect." He whispered."Love . . . [is] a lack of personal selfishness." ~ Theodore M. Burton.-Lucia rushed from her house quickly closing the wooden door. She was excited, beyond hyperactive. After what had happened two days ago, she couldn't wait to be with Alexius. She couldn't wait for him to shower her with kisses, she couldn't wait to see his glowing skin, pressed against hers. Even when her aunt yelled at her, Lucia simply smiled. Is this how it felt to be inlove? she did not want to jump into conclusions just yet. She craved Alexius so bad, he always made her feel good... she felt so good, she even forget she was laid on the hard ground full of green grass or that she was pressed against the tree as he devoured her lips. Alexius had one of his chaperones set a picnic right next to the riverbanks, it was the most romantic thing anyone had ever done for Lucia. It was the nicest thing anyone had ever done for her too, she was smitten.They did not only have sex, they talked. The Prince would tell Luc
"Our first and last love is self-love." ~ Christian Nestell.-"Are you in your right mind, Lucia ?" Khris bawled at Lucia who was startled."What do you mean ?" She acted oblivious."I saw you.." His voice became as low as a whisper. "With the Prince at the river." They were both silent, Lucia didn't know what to say except. "Don't tell anyone." Lucia abjured."This isn't right." Khris said pacing back and fourth around the small cramped kitchen. Aunt Gloria and Kyra had gone out to their church duties with the society women. They most probably discussed issues on how to teach teenage girls on how to be young women who could be presentable to the royals and their husbands. They had tea and gossiped about one another. It was not Lucia's scene even if it was her aunt would not allow her to join them. Her Aunt was part of the middle class society/bourgeois. She got invited to many social events especially the ones at the palace. She hoped Kyra and the Prince would one day be united toge
"You can't force anyone to love you or lend you money." ~ Jewish Proverb.-It was confirmed, Lucia was pregnant with the Prince's heir. Khris had taken her to his aunt a well experienced midwife, they told her all the symptoms she had been having.She then asked her to strip off her clothing and lay down so she could examine her. She laid her hands on either side of Lucia's belly, her sides were slowly curving into a little bumb. She was two months pregnant. A part of her felt happy, a part for her felt sad. A part of her couldn't wait to tell Alexius, a part of her was petrified to see his reaction. When they returned home, Khris told her it would be all okay, he would never abandon her. she had decided she would go to the royal palace and tell Alexius the news. She didn't expect him to marry her but that's what they would expect him to do. She just wanted to tell him that she was expecting, then she would leave-leave to God knows that was an idle plan.Bidding goodbye to her neigh
"Marriage is not a ritual or an end. It is a long, intricate, intimate dance together and nothing matters more than your own sense of balance and your choice of partner." ~ Amy Bloom.-Things only seemed to get worse for Lucia, her chores accumulated. Her Aunt did not care if she was pregnant or not. Lucia had to wash all the blankets as well as all the laundry. She didn't complain nit after how Alexius had used her as a pawn in his own game. She didn't want to see him again. She had to protect her child at all costs, she needed to look for a job. Her Aunt had said she would not accommodate bastard kids in her house. She continued saying she had already raise Lucia the bastard child, she wasn't going to raise Lucia's bastard child as well. Kyra on the other hand was due to get married to the archduke of the Royal Palace. Kyra had mentioned that they had been seeing each other for a few months, her mother could not have been more prouder always making sure to tell Lucia how much of a
"Love and a cough cannot be hid." ~ George Herbert.-"My Prince, i would like to apologise for lying on your name. You are an admirable man and I apologise for having done what I did." Lucia said gloomily, she couldn't look into his eyes, they held only bad memories such as when she was moaning his name beneath his chest as she looked at those sapphire blue eyes. She wished if only there was a way she could forget about their two weeks of nothing but lies."Son ?" The King questioned at the Prince who seemed lost at thought. "Uh it's okay, you are forgiven." He said."Well then Khristian and Lucia, you have my blessings to get married." The King ruled. Khristian gave Lucia a smile, The Prince couldn't help but sneer. Once the bestfriends had made it home, Lucia told Khristian she was going for a swim to clear her mind. She was only three months and a half. Her belly bumb was now visible. She walked alone there with her hair tied into a pony tail. The dress she wore outlined her pre
"Love is acceptance. When you love someone . . . . you take them into your heart, and that is surely why it hurts so much when we lose someone we love, because we lose a last of ourselves." ~ Andrew.-Her nails dug deep on his bare back, in need of his attention. He was ferocious. She moaned with ecstacy when he slammed into her without any mercy. They had been going at it for almost thirty minutes, he still couldn't reach his high. She had already reached her climax twice, it didn't feel the same. "Oh, yes my Prince." She moaned at the feel of their bodies entwined. Her voice turned him off. Her voice irked him beyond anything. He closed his eyes, imagining her sweet face, her bright forest green eyes looking at him as he took her on the grass. Her green eyes harmonized the colour of the green grass and green leafs around them. Her blonde hair sprawled all over the green grass. She gave him a sweet smile, he could feel himself almost reaching his climax just at the thought of her.
"Life is full of obstacle illusions." ~ Grant Frazier.-In the mist of all the sorrow and hurt, Lucia was happy.. a tad bit happy. Kyra getting married was indeed a blessing after all. Aunt Gloria smiled more, genuinely smiled more and laughed more. She wasn't so hard on Lucia. "I have a wedding to prepare for my soon to be dutchess of Acamas." She would say. Lucia loved seeing her cousin all smiles, she had moved into the royal palace a week back. Aunt Gloria could not have been anymore proud. The King had requested that the wedding that of archduke Elias and Kyra would have to wait until after Prince Alexius Nikoloudis II and Princess Amelia Joséphine Guilloux had taken place. A part of Lucia broke but it didn't matter, none of this mattered as soon as her bundle of joy is born they will move far far away..."Lucia, i don't understand why you didn't intend on telling me that your childhood friend had impregnated you ?" She paused. "Before I had humiliated myself at the palace." She
"Many men know how to flatter, few men know how to praise." ~ Greek Proverb.-He walked back and fourth in his room, expecting her. He didn't know what he would say to her or where to began ? She probably hated him but he loved her, loves her ; present tense. "Sire-" someone interrupted."Yes ?" He said expectedly."Your guest is here." The guard said. "Bring her up." He ordered and they nodded. Lucia was angry, she was mad as a hatter, she was raging with anger, beyond ill-tempered. Who did he think he was ? ordering her around. What did he want from her ? she thought. These hormones were definitely adding fuel to her raging fire. She was adamant on getting him off her back for good. He was promised to Princess Amelia and him requesting her presence at the palace. People in her neighborhood would always start a conversation. This would create gossip and banters all around. Lucia feared coming into the Kings Presence but to her surprise he wasn't there. Princess Amelia was not ar
Prince Liberto Nikoloudis raced towards the dining hall, with so much excitement it was undeniable that someone seemed to be very happy. The twelve year old boy, yes boy, Queen Lucia had yet again given birth to a third boy. Making Princess Elisabet the one and only daddy's Princess. She absolutely prided herself in being the only girl amongst the three male siblings. Prince Liberto had sandy blonde hair and alluring grey eyes, which made him very different from the rest of his siblings. No one in his family had grey eyes but his grandpa Demetre had once told him that, his great grandfather the late King of Greece had grey eyes and he had certainly taken after him. Taking the family's gift of height, he was one handsome lad who would later break hearts. The name Liberto has came along because he was conceived during the time of Acamas and Greece reuniting. There was a lot of joy and happiness at the time amongst the citizens. In English Liberto was translated Liberty meaning... 'the
Queen Lucia was finally back home, in Greece. Everything was just moving smoothly over five months had passed since Elias passing. She sighed, breathing in when her dress was abruptly tightened too tight. She had tried it on just a week before. "Milady, you seemed to have gained a tad bit of weight." One of the Royal maids informed her, undoing the ties at the back. Lucia heaved a sigh seating down on the leather cushioned stool matching the interior design of her massive master bedroom that she now shared with the soon to be King Alexius Nikoloudis II. "I don't understand." She whined. Larrissa, Lukas wife then immediately smiled widely at her sister inlaw."We can always make an adjustment, the wedding is only two weeks away.." the second chambermaid said softly. Suddenly the third chambermaid giggled making the two other maids laugh including Larrissa who sat on the opposite side of the room holding her cup of tea."Did I miss the joke?" Queen Lucia frowned but the maids shyly
The King sat stagnant in his seat, he had seen his nephew's body. He could not believe it. He had to die in such a horrible manor, his head looked like a broken watermelon. It wasn't a very pleasing scene but he had to. He had to make sure it was really Elias. It was clear Prince Alexius wouldn't, he was too trusting, easily trusting... the King thought. This was really the end for his nephew this was really the life he chose to lead and this is how he chose to end it. Prince Alexius had told him that they would hold a small gathering where they will let his ashes go at the Mount Varasova. It was initially Elias, favorite place and Prince Alexius knew that. Elias enjoyed sitting on the hill watching everything from down below. He would seat there for hours at most, Elias enjoyed nature, he loved nature. Elias had warned the Prince to never ever go to his spot or rather his hill when they were kids. He would always make jokes such as 'You have the whole kingdom and you want to go arou
Royal Brother "We don't know how it happened but he jumped off and it seems he died before he had even reached the ground floor." The hospital security said to Prince Alexius who was still in shock. He had came to the palace with very tragic news. They were all seated in the Royal dining, breakfast was served but no one could stomach any of what had happened. It still had not sunk in. Elias was really gone, he died a tragic death by jumping off the tenth floor of the hospital window. "What I want to know is how would a blind person jump off a hospital window?" The King questioned seated in his wheelchair, he was hurt emotionally. "I have no answers, my king. I'm very sorry your highness." The young man said solemnly. Prince Alexius couldn't hear anything, all sounds sounded like a distant memory. 'Elias is dead.' 'His body is in the mortuary.' 'His body is beyond unrecognizable.' 'It would be best if he be cremated.' 'Alex are you okay?' He zoned back in at the soun
Lucia was laid in bed in Prince Alexius arms. She could faintly make out his heartbeat. His arms wrapped around her body, he was the big spoon. Snoring lightly, she smiled thinking about how she was going to tease him about it when he wakes up. Feeling his morning glory poking her backside made her fluster a bit. It was warm, too warm probably because they were both naked after last night... no one really bothered to put on night garments after their endeavors. They were both out of breath, tired but most of all entirely satisfied. She put her hand on top his, that laid snuggly around her waist. He had two rings on, one was his Royal ring, the other was a ruby red ring that belonged to his mother. She remembered how at the river he had told her that, he had it custom made into a male version but still kept the ruby. He never ever removed these two rings but what made Lucia smile was when she thought back to last night when he threw his wedding ring in the flowing river and told her it
"Papa, why is mama leaving?" Elisabet asked her father. "érchontai edó prinkípissa." Prince Alexius softly deciding, she would only understand if he explained to her in her mother tongue like he always had before whenever he told her important messages. Princess Elisabet went to sit on her father's lap holding onto her brown teddy bear. She had a somber look on her face this made Prince Alexius very sad. She wasn't close to her mother but she loved her. They hardly spent time together but Elisabet still looked up to her none-caring mother. "Mama is going home, nai?" He questioned at the end of the sentence making sure she understood each word he said."papa, den eínai aftó to spíti?" Princess Elisabet then replied by asking her father if this wasn't home. It made Prince Alexius stiffen in his stance. Suddenly Lucia came in, after softly knocking and getting no response. "Uhm, i will just be at the royal gardens-" Queen Lucia turned to leave feeling that this was a heartfelt moment
-Father-" Prince Alexius embraced his father tightly. He looked weaker, thinner and much more pale. The doctor had said three months, he often wondered... how they could just simply put a time stamp on someone's life. It made him upset, upset at the world for easily taking away all the good things that people have in their lives."Alexius." He replied pulling back, Prince Alexius adjusted his father's continental pillows before sitting on the stool right next to his bed side."I heard the news." His father smiled proudly. It was the very first time he had seen his father genuinely proud of him. It was visible from the twinkle in his dull blue eyes. "I did absolutely nothing, honestly." Prince Alexius shrugged."What a great future King, your son is to be." King Dysmas declared proudly."He is really something." Prince Alexius felt proud, he had that pride in him that, Theodore was his son. He had done something that future generations would always praise him for, something previous
-His eyes watered a bit as he continued looking at her. He felt as if a ghost was in front of him. He couldn't hold the happiness he felt, seeing his bestfriend after so long. This was definitely one of the days in his lifetime he would never forget. Being reunited with his childhood bestfriend, whom he thought he had lost forever. Lucia stared at Khris, he wasn't a boy anymore. He had facial hair properly shaved and it suit him. There were so many changes but when she looked into his eyes, he was still the same little boy... herself and Kyra use to play with in the fields. The same young man who was selfless enough to give up everything just to marry her. Her selfless bestfriend who only wanted to protect her and see her happy. She hugged him for what seemed like the longest of time. If she had anyone whom she could consider lifelong family, it would be Khristian Salavas. He was the definition of loving and kind. He had been there for her from the very first time when they were on
"He will never see again." The doctor said to Prince Alexius who seemed devastated. "Unfortunately." The doctor continued. "The good thing is his burnt wounds are healing up quite well.." Prince Alexius felt an ache in the deepest part of his heart. As much as he had convinced himself that he hated Elias, he could never. It was impossible. He grew up with Elias and had known and looked up to him as a brother while growing up. He couldn't just up and decided, he hated him and didn't care about his well being."Is there anything that can be done about his eye sight?" Queen Lucia questioned, Prince Alexius had forgotten she was present. He was so used to being alone and dealing with everything alone but she was here with him. She left everything so she could be with him in his time need not that it was really him in need more like Elias. Prince Alexius would never wish this even upon his worst enemy. It was a very sad outcome. "Sadly, my Queen, he just needs to adjust to his new enviro
