Wedding

Lillia mouth fell agape. He was....her.... husband...he was the king.

She spaced out, her eyes trained on him , even though she was suppose to be happy that this beautiful silver haired man was her husband to be, she felt fear. She just threatened the king boldly, such action warranted death sentences.

    Earlier.....

"Have you done your research on her ?", The king deep voice asked the man behind him with dark brown hair, with a mask on his face

"Yes king Aiden".

"Report",

"Lady lillia is a brown haired girl from the village, lives with her  single mother, her dad died in a fire incident sixteen years ago. And also your taste in women.... she's average ".

Aiden stared at his right hand most trusted man.

"We shall see later on"

Few minutes later before the ball...

Aiden was in his room laying on the big massive bed, his room was big and decorated with golden decor. His pictures hung round the room.

A knock distracted him, he hmm a reply.

     A maid walked in with a tray in her hand, which was carrying tea.

"Tea sir ", the maid said, placing the tray at the bed side table. As she turned around to leave, Aiden quickly stood up and grabbed the maids hand.

"Your job isn't quite complete, strip", his deep voice sent slight shiver into the maid as she quickly started pulling off her clothes. No one could blame her, the king was so appetizing and enchanting and the loose clothe he wore that barely covered his chest seemed to only burn the maid up.

When she was done, Aiden let his eyes look all over her naked body, he licked his lips, few minutes later the maid was already on the bed being pressed down....

After the deed was done, the maid left flustered, with her hand between her leg.

"Few minutes before the ball",he muttered to himself,"Better start getting ready".

There was no need to pull off his clothes as he was already naked.

(editor mistake -please Aiden eyes are green in color).

He went into his huge bathroom,which was like a spring, with a manmade lake and lion statue where the water poured out from.

He soaked himself into the lake, the water splashing into his body making his body to glimmer.

He really enjoyed this moment, the feeling of a cool water was next to none .

"She's around your majesty", his right hand man voice jolted him up.

"Nice",Aiden said opening his eyes.

"Where's she?",

"We left her near the grand hall",

"Leave",

"Ok milord",

Aiden growl lowly as he reluctantly left the lake. Reaching for a dry towel, he dried the water off  his body.

He saw the clothe which the maids might have brought for him when he was having his soak.

He wore the dress, and reached for a rope near the door, he pulled down on it, immediately two maids walked in with a dry towel at their hand.

Aiden didn't say anything as he just sat down facing the big mirror in his room. The maid quickly started doing his hair, coming and drying off the wet hair.

"We're done my milord", they announced. Aiden didn't even take a look at the mirror, he majestically stood up and left the room.

His face barely had an expression, his forest green eyes was majestic coupled with his charming silver hair.

He had barely walked down to the ball room when his eyes caught a small thing looking intensively at his picture. He normally would have ordered some guard to chase her away but there was something about the small thing that pulled him in. Was it the luxurious full brown hair or her red gown that brought out the beauty in her skin. Whoever this person was he wanted her under him in the bed. So he quietly walked to her, without making a single noise to alert her of his presence. Then he heard her low voice, which sounded different from anything that he had ever heard in all his recent life. "Who could this be?", She has said completely oblivious of his presence.

He smirked, bringing his face close to her shoulder breathing out hot breath.

"Turn around to find out",he said .

She quickly turned round as if caught for stealing but then her lips crushed at his face, a strange glimmer flashed at his eyes as he felt her full glossy lips on his skin, his body reacted to the unintented peck but he didn't show it out. As he looked at her, his mind flew  out of his head, looking at her now, she was beyond beautiful, her small face resembling that of a cherry, her innocent deep blue eyes were alluring, pulling him deep, he was sure he could get lost in it. He was about to say something when she too seemed lost, her eyes gazing at his body.

"Works everytime", he said to himself smirking.

   Now....

Lillia felt her blood run dry when he mentioned that he was her husband, No one told her he was going to be this handsome.

She slowly laughed trying to make him forget about her earlier threat.

"Ha...ha...good ...my ....king",her words barely made any sense and that only made his smirk to widen.

"My wife, hmmm", he licked his lips slowly causing lillia face to go two shade pink.

"Not bad at all, you really are average", he said.

"Rude", lillia muttered to herself.

Aiden smirked hearing her and his smirk fell replaced by a small smile.

"You still crave for more punishment",he bent down getting his head to her level, inches away from her.

Lillia could feel his hot breath on her face and his lips barely away from hers, she was tempted to just move a little bit closer to kiss him.

"Could you leave my lips and focus on me ", his voice jolted her and she quickly came to her senses.

"Am not looking at your lip, I ...was ...ehh", she tried coming up with an excuse to give him but he just stood, straighten his suit.

"Time for the real deal here",he face was back to being an emotionless, boring look. Lillia was impressed at his quick change of expression, while he looked normal she looked like a red tomatoes mess.

Just then the mask man was back, with a file of papers in his hand.

"It is time milord", he said.

Aiden didn't look away from the maiden beside him, he lifted his hand offering her his palm.

Lillia took a deep breath in and slowly placed her hands on his and soon he led her to the ball room.

"Peter", he called out.

The maskman who was behind them quickly walked close to the king.

"Get my room rearrange to a ladies taste", Aiden whispered to him not wanting the woman beside him to hear his words not that he really needed to because Lillia was already lost. She was really enjoying the comfort that his big hands gave her even though she was hot.

She never thought the king to be this handsome, she had only thought of him like an old man because he never showed himself to his people so she thought that he was hiding his ugly face but looking at him now was totally different.

"But why didn't he show himself to his people long before now ?", She thoughted.

"Ahh",she flinched feeling a slight painful pinch at her hand. Aiden had pinched her palm hard not liking the fact that she wasn't paying attention to him but lost.

"Don't get lost, focus", his slight Annoyed voice ordered.

"Am not lost",she argued back.

"Yes you were. What are you thinking about? ",He asked.

"Nothing", she wasn't going to tell him that she was thinking about him, never.

"Tell me",he persisted.

"I was thinking about my mother", she lied. And now that she said that she suddenly missed her her mom.

Wait? Did she just forget her mother?

"This is bad", she thought to herself.

How could she forget her mother because of this damn man? She had promised herself before she came to the castle to never forget her mother, that she was going to burn her mother up in her mind. Again like before the pain came again this time more painful.

"Stop that", she wailed. She was sure that her hand was all red now.

"We've arrived, so behave, speak less and stay close to the king", he gave out few rules for her. Lillia nodded as he spoke, this time her eyes on him, looking at his green eyes.

  Soon they arrived, they stood over a curtain that divided them and the large platform that faced the ball room.

Then a loud voice was heard as the voice welcomed and introduced the couple.

"Always knew peter was a loud crook", Aiden whispered.

Lillia looked at him as she had heard him.

"So his name's peter ", she muttered nodding slowly.

"Don't go thinking about another man in front of your husband to be", Aiden voice woke her up. Her face went red as she tried to speak but her mouth only opened and closed.

"Welcome the king and his soon to be wife ",

The large curtain spread open revealing the couple to the guests. There was many gasp among the ladies, they had never seen the king before and looking at him now, he was beyond anything. All the men felt suddenly ugly looking at this handsome king, they began to feel jealous.

"The king is so handsome", one of the lady with her husband said. Her husband hissed at her.

Meanwhile there was someone Among the crowd looking at the wife, it was lillia mom, who stood alone at the corner. The woman looked at her daughter with a smile on her face she could see that her face was red. She got worried the more looking at the redness of her daughter faced.

"What happened",?
