A Night With The King

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 for a long time even if it was not forever but she knew that it wouldn’t be long before all the happiness that she felt now dried up. good things do not last for her and she was kind of scared of what might come after the happy times.

Sophie told herself countless times not to think about the sadness that awaited her in the future and instead focus on the happiness that she was feeling in the moment. She would be happy and when those sad times come, she would remember the happy times she had and live through her sadness, hoping that she would experience such happiness again before she dies.

Right before it was time for her to have dinner, Sophie decided to take a bath. As she opened the door to the bathroom, she smiled as memories of the times she shared with the king in the restroom came rushing down on her. Every part of her bedroom was filled with memories. Just like every part of her body that can be touched has been branded by him. She got under the water after covering her hair with a shower cap as she didn’t want water in her hair. She was barely there for a few minutes when she heard the sound of someone entering the emerald house. She concluded that it must be Riley with her dinner. Since she was hungry, she decided to hurry up so that she could eat and watch TV while she waited for the king to come back to her.

“Sophie? Where are you?”

Sophie heard the king’s voice, she didn’t expect him to be back already. She was tempted to remain silent but she couldn’t make him suffer. Her smile widened when she thought of what would happen if he came to join her in the shower.

“I am in the bathroom,”

She called out and a few minutes later, the door to the bathroom opened.

“Uh-oh, naked, I like that,”

He said and Sophie watched him take off his clothes and toss them on the rack. He joined her in a few seconds, his arms wrapped around her waist.

“I missed you today,”

He whispered, his voice tickling her ears. Her heart did a happy dance at his words, she missed him too. He turned off the water and lifted her chin.

“Did my woman miss me too?

He asked. Sophie’s face reddened when he called her his woman, she liked being addressed as his woman and enjoyed the way his fingers caressed her lips while he waited for her to answer.

“I did, I missed you so much,”

She told him, and he smiled before claiming her lips in a deep passionate kiss that saw them making love in the bathroom. After about thirty minutes in the shower, they both came out together, she went to where she kept her undies and pulled out her panties, she just finished wearing her pants when she felt him behind her back, she smiled and turned to face him. He was giving her a look that made her shiver.

“What?”

She whispered. He smiled at her.

“What do you want?”

She asked when he continued looking at her.

“I want you,”

He responded.

“You have me,”

She told him and had to resist the urge not to cover her face.

“Stop looking at me like that already,”

She warned him which made him laugh.

“Okay, on a serious note though, I want us to spend the night in my room, I told the maids to set a dinner in my room, I am sure they will be done already, let’s go eat dinner and have fun,”

He invited. Her smile dropped at his words. Sophie didn’t know what to say about the invitation, she wanted to spend time with him but she didn’t want anyone to walk in on them. She knew already that people within the palace might already know about them but she didn’t want to give them more things to talk about.

“Why are you frowning? Don’t you want to spend your evening with me?”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The king asked.

“I want to, but can’t we just stay here?”

“Why? Are you scared of something? Nothing will come for you in my room, the bed is bigger and more spacious,”

The king said. he was trying to get her to say yes and she so wanted to say yes but the thought of someone walking into the king’s chamber and seeing her having dinner with the king didn’t sound right to her, she hated the image.

“I am not scared; I just don’t want to be exposed to other people. What do you think they will say if they find me having dinner with the king in his chamber?”

Sophie voiced.

“Sophie, why are you worried about irrelevant things? You should know that whoever I let into my chamber to prepare a feast for us are people who are already aware of our relationship,”

The fact that he called what they had a relationship and not some kind of an affair kind of made her heart flutter for a moment before she realized that didn’t mean anything. He just called it that probably because he didn’t want to say affair, not like anything was wrong with that tag.

“Relationship?”

She asked even though she knew she should not push him and let him spell it out in words that it was an affair.

“Of course, you are my girlfriend, don’t you know that fact?”

He asked and she could only stare at him in shock. Girlfriend? He thinks she is his girlfriend?

“Girlfriend?”

“Why do you look so shocked, Soph? you are my girlfriend, my woman, is that news to you?”

he asked. She opened her mouth to say something but the words just didn’t come out, he thought of her as his girlfriend? He never asked her. She didn’t even dare to have that thought or let it develop.

“You didn’t ask me to be your girlfriend and how the fuck am I supposed to be a king’s girlfriend?”

She asked spreading both of her arms out for emphasis. She didn’t even know what it entailed to be the king’s girlfriend.

“I didn’t know I was supposed to ask you officially, if you are not my woman, then what have we been doing?”

“Fucking,”

Sophie responded and covered her mouth with both of her hands, she didn’t expect the word to come out so loudly, she glared at him when he started laughing, she placed her hand on her hips and watched him laugh.

“Are you done mocking me?”

She asked when he stopped.

“Baby, I wasn’t mocking you, the way you said it and how you acted after was so funny, now, back to my girlfriend not knowing she is my girlfriend, I want to fix that,”

He said and closed the small distance between them and held both of her hands in his, caressing her palms softly, he looked directly into her eyes, with a smile that melted her heart on his face, it was so easy to fall in love with the man. He was everything she wanted, everything that she had right now, and also the only thing that she knew that she couldn’t keep with her forever even though that’s what she wanted. She wished it was that easy to keep him to herself, the way he was looking at her right now, made her wish for the impossible.

“Soph, I like you a lot and want to spend a lot of time exploring what we have between us, I know that I might not be the right man for you,”

She wanted to tell him that he was the only man for her, the only one she wanted for herself but she could say the words out, she could only say it in her heart.
