A Night With The King

One thing Lance was glad about was that he asked her to come to his private spot with him, she made everything better, even this place. He smiled as he watched her relax by the pool in two pieces that left her big tummy on display. She looked so beautiful sitting there and pregnant with their child and she looked so peaceful too. He stood there smiling while he watched. They arrived in the evening yesterday so all they did was eat and turn in for the night, when they woke up, he gave her a tour of the place after which he fed her and she went into their shared bedroom and came back wearing the two he forgot that he got her, it had taken every of his will power not to tear the tiny cloth from her and make love to her. He wanted her to have fun and he was glad she was currently having fun, but it would be even better if they were having fun together. He started walking towards her, she was so obvious to his presence as she was lost in her own world.

“Are you going to spend all afternoon in the pool? Aren’t you cold?”

Lance asked when he got to her.

“I am not even in the pool, it’s just my legs and it feels too good, I feel comfortable like this,”

She replied, waving at him. He sat next to her. They didn’t say much but the silence was peaceful and comforting. He jumped into the pool after a few minutes and she laughed loudly right before he pulled her into the pool with him.

“You didn’t just do that,”

She let out.

“I did,”

He replied and circled his arms around her waist, pulling her to him. She moved her face away when he tried to kiss her.

“Wait, you are not going to make love to me in this pool, right?”

She asked, he wasn’t thinking of that before but she just planted the idea in his head and now that’s what he wanted to do.

“Thank you for the idea, my lady,”

He said before pulling her face to him and claiming her lips, she wrapped her arms around his neck and he deepened the kiss.

Later that evening, they sat down for dinner, which he was able to pull together, his cooking was rusty because after he came back to Otano, he had no need to cook for himself but since it was the two of them and she was very pregnant, he had to do the cooking because he didn’t want her stressed, she had wanted to do it but he insisted and made her seat and watch him cook. She did a little directing, and in the end both their breakfast, lunch, and dinner came out edible. She was currently eating silently and he just watched her with a smile on his face. She looked pretty even while eating. So beautiful and so his. He had to admit that he was kind of obsessed with her but he didn’t mind, she brought out feelings in him that he never knew he was capable of feeling.

“Why aren’t you eating? You have been looking at me and not eating,”

Sophie scolded, pointing at his plate, he didn’t even notice that he hadn’t taken a bite of his food; he got carried away by the feelings that she invoked in him.

“I just enjoy watching you eat, you smile a lot even while eating,”

He commented and she smiled for him.

“Eat your food, you are getting a little too obsessed with me, your majesty,”

She replied and took a bite from her food; she was wrong, he wasn’t a little obsessed with her, he was a lot obsessed with her, he could spend the whole day watching her doing the basic things of life and it would be the perfect day in his life.

“I love you,”

He mouthed. She paused and smiled at him.

“I love you too, eat!”

She added the last word in a commanding voice and he obeyed, only Sophie had the power to command him and he would obey.

“I think I ate a little too much, I feel so full, I think I might burst,”

She let out as she sat down heavily on the sofa after they finished eating; what she said was even funnier when he looked at her big stomach.

“You look like you ate a lot,”

She glared at him at his word.

“I am pregnant, you fed me a lot, even if I don’t eat, I will still look like this, and the worst part is, this will only get bigger,”

Lance smiled and sat next to her, he already could picture her growing bigger with each passing day.

“I will love you even when you are bigger,”

“Of course, you have to, if not I will hunt you down,”

She threatened and they both started laughing. He realized that since they got together, he laughed so much more now, she brought so much joy into his life and he didn’t want to think about how his life had been when she wasn’t in it and certainly didn’t want to picture a life without her in it. He sat next to her and reached for both of her hands.

“Are you about to profess your love for me again?”

Oh, she knew him so well.

“You bet, now let me,”NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

He answered.

“Of course, I am always ready to listen.”

She smiled at him and waited for him to speak with the smile not leaving her face.

“You are my special someone, Sophie, the brightest star in my universe, I never thought I would feel this way about someone but you managed to work your way into my heart and now I wonder what my life was like when you weren’t mine, God, Soph, I love you so much and I am going to marry you,”

He said and she smiled.

“You really are determined, aren’t you?”

She asked; Lance nodded.

“You really think I am queen material?”

He didn’t like that she doubted herself, she was the perfect queen for him and he was sure his people would love her once he was able to get them to overlook the fact that she was a foreigner and not royalty, that would change once they get married. In fact, it already changed, she became royalty the first time he kissed her; now he knows that it wasn’t that day at the Emerald house but a couple of months before and in his room. He still beats himself up mentally each time he remembers that fact.

“You are my queen and soon enough, you will be the people’s queen too, better prepare yourself for the role,”

He told her.

“If my king says so, then I have to do it because I can’t say no to the king,”

She said in a loving tone.

“Good,”

He responded, got up, and swooped her into his arms.

“Wait, put me down before you let me fall, I am quite heavy,”

She complained but he refused to listen, she weighed a little more now but he didn’t mind, he would carry even when she was nine months pregnant.

“You know I won’t let you fall; I am going to continue carrying you even when you are close to giving birth, I love you,”

“I love you too,”

She replied and wrapped her arms around his neck, he smiled and carried her over to their shared bedroom and made love to her until far into the night.

Monday morning, Lance woke up with the biggest smile on his face, he felt happy and contented and his joy increased even more when he felt Sophie move in his arms, he couldn’t believe his luck, Sophie and his unborn daughter were the biggest blessings he got this year, the best thing that has happened to him in years, the last place he had expected to find love was within the palace but the universe had a way of doing things that amazes him. The first time was when he was chosen as king even though he never was a candidate and now with Sophie who moved from a far country to Otano, unexpectedly coming into his life and finding a way to make his life even more worthy of living.

“Good morning, my queen,”

He greeted her with a kiss, and she smiled. He liked that she finally accepted that she was his queen because that’s exactly what she was. In the next couple of days, he would be meeting with the elders and having a conversation with them. After that, he would propose to her and they would get married before their child was born into the world.

“Why are you smiling so mischievously, what are you planning in your head, my king?”

She asked in a low voice, he answered her with a kiss.
