The Cursed Tyrant and His Reluctant Queen

Why does the King want to take the daughter of a country noble as his bride? Aren't there so many other women more qualified to marry him??? It has been a few months since the second Prince conquered the throne through a path of blood. One of his first decrees states he will marry the daughter of Duke Bursio, Veronica. Yet, the girl is more than unwilling. And not only because of the ferocious reputation of the young tyrant. She has a secret to keep, and becoming the Queen of Alba would be a risk she's reluctant to take. She is the Princess of Mages. Her powers shall be hidden, for the church persecutes anyone with some affinity with magical arts. Avoiding the King's orders is impossible until she comes up with a plan: she can't get married twice, right? As such, she just has to find another man that will accept her and perform the sacred ceremony before the King has the chance to get his hands on her. The guard at her door, Ignis, seems just the perfect person. They knew each other as children, and this unexpected reunion looks like the last opportunity fate has to offer. WARNING: smut. The cover is mine. Don't use it without permission. *** From the story: I bend lower, approaching his lips. I keep a close distance from our mouths so that they don't touch, but not enough to avoid my breath tickling him when I talk. «Can you swear you won't complain no matter what I do?» «I can. I won't fight back against you, Veronica. I swear it on my honour and my life.» «That's so tempting, you know? Letting me do whatever I want...» I pull the side of the shirt apart, detaching the two buttons I forgot to undo. «Are you sure I'm a little lamb who won't take advantage of your offer?» I place a digit on his chest, making sure he feels the nail pressing. Since he doesn't react, I scratch him. Not too deep, just enough to make him realise I'm not joking. No reaction at all. Not even a frown. Not a single word. «Oh, I'm ready to test your honour tonight,» I whisper, dragging my hand on his stomach. *** Chat with the author!

The last stop (3)

After dinner, we retire to the bedrooms.

I change into a nightgown and sigh happily. Travelling with luggage is so much better. I don't need to sleep constricted by a dress and all the layers beneath. Just a light gown and nothing else!

Ignis walks in perfectly in time. He must have been listening to my movements through the door to come in only after I've changed.

I sit on the bed and cover my legs with the blanket. The room is so small that it's difficult to breathe. I opened the window to make it easier, but it's not helping that much.

Ignis strips of the coat and the outer layers, wondering how comfortable he can get. I'm all right if he takes the shirt off, as well, but that would be very distracting for my sleeping.

In the end, he leaves the belt on the table, staying in a shirt and trousers. Oh, never mind.

We can't do anything right now: the walls are too thin. Yet, my body does heat up at the thought of having Ignis so close for a whole night. Even if it's just for sleeping.

I'm happy, for some reason.

Ignis walks to the bed and lies down after turning all the lights off. The darkness invades the room, except for the little light coming from the starry sky. Not enough to see anything, by the way.

I lie down as well and turn to the side, giving my back to Ignis. I then move an inch back until hitting his hard chest. His arm surrounds my waist at this same moment, and I sigh. I close my eyes to rest, happy to be this close.

His hand moves on my stomach, travelling in circles and light like a feather. It's not even a caress: just teasing.

«Ignis?» I murmur.

«Hush,» he whispers. «The walls are thin.»

Oh, right.

«Ignis?» I repeat, this time whispering as well.

«If you're too loud, they'll hear us,» he says, pointing out the obvious.

He's right. But now that his fingers reached my breasts, it's a bit late to think about the details. He should have considered this before lighting the flame of desire. Oh, what in the world am I thinking?

It's almost as if we were sleeping in a hall with other people! Almost...

His hand squeezes my breast, playing with the nipple from over the nightgown. His lips look for my neck in the dark, and his tongue caresses my skin with frightening precision.

His hand moves down from my chest, making me puff in a complaint. He reaches in between my legs, and my pout transforms into a grin as I spread my legs to let him touch as much as he wants.

My heart starts racing when his fingers circle on my core, then move up and down, all without rest. I sigh, for moaning is forbidden.

As if responding to an ancient instinct, I press my butt against Ignis's crotch, and I rub on his already-hard member.

His teeth graze my earlobe. His hand lifts the nightgown, finding the tender flesh of my thighs and the hotness in between. He teases me even more and, seeing I don't moan out loud, he dares to insert a finger. Then, two.

«Remember not to be loud,» he whispers.

«You too!» I remind him. «Your voice can be heard as well as mine!»

«Sure,» he says, chuckling lightly.

I try turning on my back, but his arm stops me.

«No, let's do it like this,» he whispers.

I nod against his lips, waiting for him to do what he already has in mind.

He makes me lift my leg and positions himself in between, stroking his erection on my core until it's drenched with my juices. He sighs in my ear, making me shiver at the hot air of his breath.

When he enters inside, he lets my leg down and pants a little.

He's gentle and slow, so I don't feel any discomfort this time. He doesn't reach the depths of yesterday, but I like feeling him inside.

But, most of all, I like his arm around me. And his body is so close that every inch of my back burns.

He thrusts inside, breathing hard on my neck. He likes this, doesn't he? Even more than me...

His arm first circles around my hips to help him find the right pace, and then it wanders on my chest and in between my legs, caressing and teasing without a break.

I start panting soon enough as the pleasure builds up. I've been waiting for it, so I'm not surprised. Yet, I can't help but let a moan escape.

A single one, and low in volume. With some luck, no one heard.

Sensing my loss of control, Ignis slows down his thrusts, and his left hand crawls under my head. Before I have time to use it as a pillow, he presses it on my mouth.

Oh, this is better. It's easier to keep silent like this. Why didn't I think of it by myself?

After silencing me, he returns to move a bit faster. Not enough fast, in my opinion, yet enough for my body to react. I move my hips back to meet his thrusts.

My butt hits him times and times again, but we're as slow as not to make too much noise. I press my hands on him, over my mouth, to suffocate the sounds my throat wants to make so badly.

Ignis hides his face in between my ear and shoulders, pressing his lips on my neck to keep his own voice in check.

We make love for a few minutes only and with an intensity that isn't as wild as yesterday.

However, it's enough. My muscles contract the moment before pleasure is released, and I lean back to feel every bit of it with Ignis. His body reacts at the same time, and we silently enjoy this delight, together.
