Lucile/Azriel

Lucile

I was sitting across Duke Azriel in a fancy restaurant. This didn't feel like he was accompanying me but it felt like he was on a date with me.

We have kissed more than we should have. He always leaves me in a flustered mess. 

As I ate my food, he kept looking at me."Can I have some wine?" I look at him. He forced me to wear his jacket…I didn't even feel cold…whenever I tried to take off the jacket he would glare at me. 

"Your father would get angry, princess" He sipped his glass. I rolled my eyes as I took the bottle and poured the glass myself.

"He won't, I mean I'm nineteen years old now." I smirked as he frowned slightly. 

"I don't want you to be drunk, princess." He caressed my cheek as he took the glass of wine from my hand. How rude. 

"as much as I would love to see you, being a dork, we can't risk it" 

"I am not a dork when I'm drunk" I frowned slightly. 

"Sure, here you go then" He gave me back my glass of wine. I slowly brought the glass to my lips, it was a great choice, this wine was pretty nice. 

I smiled as I took a picture of the glass of wine. 

"could you for once stop using the damn social media, princess?" I glared at him as he chuckled and looked away.

"Why are you laughing?" I sip my wine. "you look cute when you are angry" 

I feel myself getting flustered. As we finished eating, I got up. 

"Excuse me, I'm going to use the restroom , okay?" 

he nodded as he paid the bill. I could've done that…

I just rolled my eyes and walked to the restroom.

In the corner of my eyes I saw an awfully familiar face but I decided to ignore it. 

I feel so tired today, maybe it's been a while since I went out like this. As I went in, there was an attractive tall lady standing near the stalls. She had copper coloured hair and was talking on a call with a cigarette in one hand. 

The restroom reeked of cigarette smell. I went to the bathroom sink and washed my hands. Her eyes narrowed as she looked me up and down. She honestly started giving me creeps. 

She then continued talking on the call. "Yeah I found him, he is here with the princess" I froze. Is she talking about Azriel? 

I quickly dry my hands and rush out. As I walked I bumped into someone. 

"Prince Ivan?" I looked at him. He was holding a man's hand. "ah–Princess lucile." He bowed as the guy next to him bowed slightly too. He was wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans. He had slender arms and legs, His skin was fair, he had black hair with brown highlights. His hair was curly and he was a bit shorter than prince Ivan.

"I am sorry, I didn't see you around when I was with my friend…This is my friend Julian…" Prince Ivan smiled too brightly. While, his friend was flustered as he kept holding onto prince ivan's hand. Prince Ivan glared at him and pulled his hand away. His friend rolled his eyes. "I am waiting outside " His friend said as he walked out. Prince Ivan sighed. "So what are you doing here, princess?" 

"Nothing important really, I was just here with Duke Azriel.." He sighed "I see, so do you wanna meet up tomorrow?" he ran a hand through his hair "sure…" I bit my lower lip slowly, then smiled at him and walked away. 

"it took you a while to come back, princess…" Azriel wrapped his arm around my waist as I blush.

"Mhm, i just met Prince Ivan there.." He stiffened as his hand dropped from my waist. "I see. What did he say?" I looked up at him, the earlier warmth from his expression was not there anymore as he glared at me.

"Well he asked me to meet him tomorrow" I looked away from him. "He literally asked you out, princess. Oh, right. He is your fiancé anyways" he rolled his eyes. 

"Azriel—" I looked at him as he walked faster than me. "Wait for me, ugh!" I ran after him as he ignored me and walked to the car. 

"What is wrong with you?!" I glare at him as he opens the car's door. 

"get in." He glared back at me."Don't wanna. I am walking home." I roll my eyes, at first he acts sweet then suddenly he becomes the Duke Azriel I knew since my childhood.

I turned around as he let out an exasperated sigh, as I started walking he kept walking behind me. 

I ignore him and walk faster, one minute he becomes someone you would want to love and cherish forever and the other minute he turns into The Duke Azriel reputed for his merciless and cold behaviour.

He grabbed my wrist and turned me around, pulling me flushed against his chest. 

I swear I felt my heart almost burst. Our faces were too close as I looked into his eyes. 

"I don't want that prince anywhere near you, princess…"

"We are not dating, Duke Azriel." I frowned, reminding him I am getting married in a few months, he grabbed my waist tightly and pulled me even closer. We were so close that if I tilt my head to look at him, our lips would touch. 

"I can treat you much better than that blonde frat boy." He caressed my cheek as I blushed. 

"let–let me go." I tried to push him but he just won't let me go..

He grasped my chin and tilted my hand then kissed me. He is giving me false hopes, he doesn't love me..but I can't resist him, i can't resist his charm, I can't hate him even if he is mean to me most of the time. I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back. 

Guess I am really falling in love.

As the night passed, I woke up, I noticed Duke Azriel sleeping next to me on my bed. we didn't do anything last night yet I feel so flustered seeing him letting his guard down like that, next to me….

My thoughts disappeared as I heard a knock on my room's door. I got up and quickly hid Azriel under the blanket. "Don't come out okay?" He looked at me half asleep and nodded as he hugged a pillow. 

I smiled at how cute he looked when he was asleep.I was tempted to kiss him, but I went to the door and opened it. 

"Princess Lucile. Please get ready within thirty minutes, Prince Ivan will be here soon." Catherine smiled. 

"I see…okay-" I was about to close door when she stopped me

"wait, let me clean your room.." oh fuck. I look back at my bed, it wasn't obvious he was laying there but she would notice anyway. "No! I mean—no, I'll do it, go and take a rest for once Catherine " I smiled at her and she seemed confused. She tried to look in "what are you hiding, Lucile?" Am I that easy to see through? "nothing, really. Byeee, I will see you around catherine." 

"Wait, Lucile I—" I shut the door really fast and lock it as I sigh.

I walked towards Duke Azriel and sat next to him in the bed as he continued sleeping. He looked adorable..I wish I could be with him, but I'm not sure if it's really love or just lust…

I sighed and leaned down and kissed him on the lips, before I could pull back his arms wrapped around my waist and he pinned me under him. His shirt was unbuttoned from the top as my breath hitched. I looked at him as our lips parted. 

"can't control yourself in the morning, princess?" he murmured in a deep voice. "You look cute when you sleep" I Chuckled as he raised an eyebrow. "stop calling me cute, love " He kissed my neck. Love? Oh my god. "Love, huh?" I wrapped my arms around his neck and Chuckled and kissed him as he held my thighs and squeezed them, then his hands travelled lower as he kissed me deeply. 

"As much as I want to continue, I am afraid I need to get ready" I pushed him off me as he groaned. "This is not fair, princess. You are seriously wasting your time getting ready for that guy, when you can seriously just go out with me." he laid down on his back and kept looking at me. "You are whining." I say as I go to my bathroom. "I am not, I am just giving you a piece of advice." He hugged my pillow. "God this smells so good, just like you, princess" 

I chuckle as I come out to decide my outfit. He got up and came up behind me. "You should wear this, scare him away. I'll gladly help you with that." 

"You are talking like you are in love with me, Duke Azriel." 

He turned me around and looked into my eyes. "you don't know what you make me do princess, you don't know how crazy I go when I remember that you can't be mine but….I will make you mine anyways, if your father won't agree, we'll run away, I don't care, you are mine." he kissed me. I feel like this is not the same Duke Azriel, he is different…he has changed. Just for me. The thought gave me butterflies as I chuckled against his lips as he broke the kiss, I continued looking for an outfit.

After digging in my wardrobe I finally stuck to a matcha co-ord set. It was pretty cute.

"Too revealing, wear something else." I shook my head and he narrowed his eyes and sighed. "Do whatever you want princess, if he tried to get way too close to you, I'll murder him." he said it without hesitation and I'm afraid he would actually do that. He got up and walked to the door. "I'll go get ready, I'm coming along with you on the date." I roll my eyes. "and stop doing that or I will actually make you roll your eyes for a good reason." 

He chuckled as I let out an audible gasp. I feel my cheeks heating up as I walk to the bathroom to take a shower, He makes me way too flustered. 

Thirty minutes later, I walked out of my room. I stood there in front of my father as Duke Azriel stood next to him.

"Lucile, Duke Azriel will accompany you to your date with Prince Ivan" As my father spoke to me, Duke Azriel smirked at me as I looked down. God. This man makes me all flustered and my mind fucked up.

Around a minute later, prince Ivan arrived, he bowed in front of my father and then flashed a quick smile at me.

Duke Azriel glared at him. "Let's go, princess?" He took my hand, I could tell Azriel was getting mad already. Something dangerous flashed through his eyes, but he calmed down and followed us. 

"Um, prince Ivan, Duke Azriel is coming along with us" I blurted out as prince Ivan didn't respond but he didn't show any visible emotion, just nodded and smiled. As he walked me to his car while holding my hand, Azriel kept glaring at me and prince Ivan. 

This is a disaster..

Azriel

He is just finding excuses to touch her. The way he kept looking up and down at her body, it was obvious he was trying to sleep with her. He was holding her waist as she talked about her favourite dessert. I can get her to a better date than this. Her favourite cafe, rose garden, then hot and steamy sex— I groaned, the images went straight to my groin. "I will be back in a bit, princess" prince Ivan smiled and got up, he walked out of sight and earshot. I wonder what he is doing. 

Whatever it is, at least I got a chance to be near Lucile. 

I walked to her and put my hand on her bare waist. The Co-ord set was cute, but she should wear it only when she is with me. The skirt was short and the top revealed a generous amount of her waist and cleavage. She looked at me and rested her back on my chest.

"How is your date going princess?" I say as she rolled her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh. 

"not good, he is boring.." She Chuckled. "Well, he kept on talking about politics and shit" she made a pout and I chuckled. 

"It's fine we can go on a real date later" I kissed her neck as she inhaled sharply and tipped her head back. 

"Just get it done, let's go somewhere after this stupid excuse of a date" I kissed her cleavage as she blushed, I felt her heart beating faster. I step away from her and fix my shirt as Prince Ivan enters after five minutes. 

"Sorry I had to make an important call." He smiled politely and continued talking. 

As prince Ivan dropped us at the palace, Princess Lucile waved at him. I wrapped my arms around her waist and picked her up as Prince Ivan drove away. "Let's go somewhere else, I don't want to go in yet" I say as she chuckled and tried to get off. 

"Okay, fine. But at least put me down " she looked at me and I could see a mischievous glint in her eyes. Something dark unfurled inside me as I put her down. Fuck, she is so arousing. I walk behind her. "Let's go to your favourite art museum, princess." I looked at her. She has done so much to you that I smile so much around her. I feel weird suddenly feeling happy whenever I see her or hear her, I feel like a puppy. As we walked I noticed she was getting cold in that little dress. I hugged her from behind. "better?" she nodded "much better" i took her hand and kissed it. It is not the sex that got me head over heels for her but the realisation that she is not the arrogant princess I thought she was. She was actually nicer than any other royals I've met. 

I know I sound like those foolish men in love, but I can't help admiring her. 

As we walked to the art museum, she got out of my grasp and left me longing.

"It's fine..we can't walk like that in public, can we?" she sighed, she was right but I still wanted to just reach out to her and pull her in, embrace her like a vulnerable rabbit.

If only prince Ivan never got in between, we wouldn't have to hide this relationship. 

I wasn't sure if it was a relationship, but something was making me a bit hopeful.

I have seriously turned into a love sick cat. I roll my eyes and sigh at myself as I continue walking.

"I prefer walking more than cars" 

"same." I say as I look at her as she smiles softly. Nothing has ever got me this captivated, but her smiles were everything I wanted. No,needed. 

We reach the art museum in a short time as it was near the palace. I looked at her as she admired the white marble walls and paintings that definitely captured attention of many rich men.

She walked inside and I followed her in, she admired the paintings and I admired her.I had no interest in paintings or whatsoever.

The only art I loved was the piece of art in front of me. I wanted to hold her and kiss her but I restrained myself to do so. Her brown hair had a little with ribbon at back which gave me the urge to take it off and let her hair fall free. I wanted to run my hand through her hair again. Without thinking I went behind her when she was checking out a painting, I took off her ribbons and ran my hand through her hair. She stiffened and blushed. It feels like she doesn't realise we are dating but it's fine, she'll get used to that fact. She was mine after all and I do not share.

I let my hand drop to my side, her ribbon in my hand. It feels so soft, just like her. The thought of her like this with anyone else makes me insane. If Prince Ivan thinks he can take her away from me, he definitely thinks wrong. 

I sigh and continue following Lucile around as she got too excited after she sees the paintings.

Subconsciously, I took out my smartphone and without thinking twice, I took her picture. She didn't seem to notice which was a good thing as she would make fun of me if she did know. 

Looking at her running around in a short dress made my mind go somewhere else, somewhere darker.I grabbed her arm and pulled her against me. Our bodies are in contact.

"paparazzis." she reminded me as I nodded, but I didn't let go of her arm. Instead, I took her to the empty hallway in the museum. I knew this part of the museum, it usually remained closed.

She wrapped her arms around my neck as I looked for an empty room, which I luckily found earlier than expected. I pick her up and carry her in the room. I kissed her as I closed the door and she tightened her grip on my hair. I pin her against the wall, she looked into my eyes.

"what if someone sees us?" she said, she seemed nervous, she was right we were in public and there was a risk in being found out. 

"Don't worry, princess." I kissed her neck as she tipped back her head, letting out a soft moan. Her hand went from being around my neck to my chest as she unbuttoned slightly. Her skin was so soft and fair. Her fingers desperately opened every button. She did it like she needed me. Her lips met mine again like she needed to kiss me to breathe. She cupped my face while kissing, her fingers felt soft against my skin. She was everything I wanted and everything I needed. 

"I love you…" she whispered softly as she blushed, I froze. It shouldn't be surprising to hear that but I was surprised. "What's wrong?" she looked at me as she breathed heavily. 

You don't deserve her. My mind reminded me, although it was true but no one can take her from me, she is mine and mine alone, anyone else who would dare to touch her won't survive. I can promise that.

I growled softly and bit her neck as she gasped as softly, wrapping her arms around my neck. She looked at me, her face was flushed.

I couldn't get my hands off her, she felt too good to let her go. 

She was better than any other girl I have ever fucked, I kiss her cleavage as her hand travelled down to the waistband of my pants, she moaned as I bit her neck softly. Her neck was softer than cotton,now covered with my marks.

I let out a low groan as her hand wrapped around my length, her hand felt soft against my skin. 

She got on her knees as I felt my eyes widened. Before I could stop her, she worked down the flyer of my pants, she licked her lips as my erection sprung out, she was surprised yet excited. Her hand reaches out to mine as I hand her the single condom. I could see it in her eyes. I put my hand behind her head as she kissed the head, She slowly started taking it in. It was clear it was her first time, but damn, it felt so good. I tipped my head back forcing down a moan, but, I can't help but moan. Her touch was something I couldn't get enough of. She took me fully in her mouth but she was still three good inches away from the base. I couldn't help myself, I grabbed onto her hair tighter and trusted her head forward, making her choke.

She gasped softly as her eyes got teary. This was too sexy. She was too sexy. I licked my lips as she continued sucking. her head bobbing softly as I thrust my hips forward to make a rhythm,she held onto both sides of my waist and continued sucking. I found my release, my legs shook slightly as she got my cock out of her mouth, her lipstick was a mess, she and I breathed heavily and backed away. She got back on her feet as I rolled off the condom and threw it away in the trash bin. She bit her lower lip as I buttoned my pants, I can tell she wanted more but we can't do that, well at least not here. I held out my arm and she grabbed on it, her head resting on my shoulder. 

"you okay, princess?" I kiss her cheek as she nodded. 

Her cheeks were red as we walk out, atleast she seemed happy.

I don't know if this was love or not..I never fell in love before. Except for that one time in my teenage years which doesnt matter. some bad memories were supposed to be forgotten for once and forever. 

I kiss lucile's cheek and walked out of the museum with her, the paintings never amused me but she did. 

As I stepped out, someone came running and hugged me tightly.

I was shocked as I looked at the woman. Red hair.

"Iris?" I called out to the woman as she hugged me tighter, Lucile seemed confused as If she didn't know what was happening–

"Azriel, I have missed you..let's go back please?" She wrapped her arms around my neck.

I could feel Lucile stiffening besides me.

I pushed Iris off me and looked into her silver eyes. 

So much trouble for a great day.
