A Night With The King

“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,”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

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 girlfriend have dinner with me in my room? I want to spend my evening with her,”

He urged and she smiled.

“Yes,”

“Great, go dress up beautifully, while I make sure dinner he served,”

He said, leaning in to peck her on the lips and then on her forehead. He grabbed her boobs with both hands and squeezed. She didn’t even remember she was naked except for the panties on her waist which didn’t cover much. Her face reddened and she practically ran towards the wardrobe to grab one of those expensive dresses that he had got her. When she looked again, he was no longer in the room. She quickly tossed on a bright pink evening dress, checked her face, and applied light makeup. She was still contemplating what she would do with her messy hair when he called out her name, she gave up trying to style it and just packed it up in a messy bun. She checked herself in the mirror one last time before she dashed out of the bedroom. He was waiting for her in the living room and stood up when she walked in.

“You look ravishing, my lady,”

He said which made her blush, he reached out for her hand and dropped a kiss before leading her out of the emerald house. This was the first time she would go through that door since she came to live in the emerald house and he was making it all romantic. Making the butterflies in her stomach multiply each minute, she knew his room was huge. She had been in there a lot of times but this time, she saw it in a different light.

“No one will disturb us, once we are done eating, your personal maid will be the one to clear up, don’t worry, she won’t be speaking to anyone,”

He assured as he led her to the table set for them. She already forgot about that when he told her Riley was the one waiting on them. She liked Riley and was used to her already. He sat with her and gestured for her to eat, she thanked him for the food and the warm setting and he smiled. They ate in silence.

“I can’t believe you talked me into coming here after all,”

Sophie said while they lay in each other’s arms after dinner, they had real food and each other as dessert, every minute in his presence was fun and they currently lay naked in bed together with his fingers making tiny circles around her breast. She had to start a conversation to distract her from the things that his finger on her breast was doing to her. She has become a wanton woman for him. This is the most sex she has had at a go in all of her life. All her other boyfriends were good in bed and knew how to do her right but with the king, it was a whole new experience, it was as if her body was made for him and each touch unlocked a new feeling in her that she never thought she was able to feel.

“You are glad you did, right? I am such a fun boyfriend,

She still couldn’t get used to the fact that they were actually dating. The king of Otano was her boyfriend. It made no sense when she thought about it but he asked and she said yes.

“Yes, I am glad I did,”

She responded.

“God, Soph, I want to have you with me for a long; long time,”

He said the words even though she was sure he knew how impossible that was, there was a moment of silence as she let the sadness pass through her before she said the words she had in mind.

“You know that’s not possible, sooner or later I will have to leave the palace, I am going to have a baby soon and you and I both know I can’t have a baby and still live in the palace,”

She reminded him just in case the beauty of tonight and what they shared made him forget that fact.

“I don’t want you to leave, Soph, I want you here with me, when you give birth, you can raise your baby here,”

Sophie wanted to correct him and say our baby but she wasn’t ready for what that could cause. She also didn’t think it would be possible for her to live in the palace and have her baby here and raise her in the palace too. She didn’t want to remain the king’s mistress and didn’t want her daughter to grow up with the mistress child tag. Right now, she might be his girlfriend and they might both know that fact, but others won’t see her like that; they will see her as his mistress and that was about it. The king doesn’t keep girlfriends, it was either a wife and a queen or a mistress, she wasn’t qualified to be his queen so a mistress was all she would be getting and she was aware of that fact.

“As much as that sounds enticing, you know that’s not possible, soon, you will be required to have a wife and start a family, no woman would want a woman to live next to their bedroom or for her husband to have another woman nearby, I don’t want that kind of life either,”

She told him her mind. There was no point in keeping that fact to herself because even he knew.

“No one said I was getting married, I don’t need to get married,”

He said and she had to resist the urge to laugh, what she did do was sit up and just stare at him, shaking her head.

“Let’s be for real, it is not about what you need or want, Lancelot darling, you are the king, it is a must for you to get married and produce an heir and I am sure before long you will be tired of me,”

The last part of what she said made her sad but it was another truth, soon, he would grow tired of her and then, he won’t care whether she decided to stay in the palace or leave, in fact, she was sure that he would want her to leave.

“What nonsense are you talking about, woman? I am never going to get tired of you, I already want you again even though I have had you so many times, you turned me into an addict for you, don’t say nonsense,”

He scolded. He sounded so offended that he gave her false hope for a moment, one thing with false hope, it doesn’t last.

“Never say never, my king,”

She said, masking the sadness she felt with a smile.

“No, that smile, I don’t like that smile, Sophie, come here,”

He reached out and she went into his arms.

“I don’t know what the future holds for us but I do know that I don’t want us to end,”

When he says things like that, he gives her hope, she shouldn’t be falling for it because no matter what he tells her, she knew, he knew, they both knew that they couldn’t be forever, it was lust talking, once that was out of the picture, it won’t be hard for him to forget her.

“Can we stop talking about the future and just enjoy the moment?”

Sophie requested. She would rather that they do fun things than spend their time together talking about their uncertain future.

“Whatever you want, my lady,”

He said right before he claimed her lips in a passionate kiss that promised more and once again, he didn’t disappoint.
