I was woken up with the royal musician's flute playing softly in my room. Serena and the other maids came into my room to help me bathe and get dressed.
"Good morning your highness, Prince Finnegan says His Grace, the Duke of Gwaidth will be coming today, along side the Duke of Thoraven,. Shall I prepared the special room your highness?"
I simply nodded. The special room was the one assigned to James each time he came to visit. I looked at Serena and there was hint of sadness in her eyes.
After my bath, I decided to have my breakfast in my room.. I had the maids clean the room to make sure it was sparkling for James.
Serena entered my room and it seemed Her countenance had fallen. She looked distraught. Very distraught.
"What is the problem Serena?" I asked while sipping my tea. Her fingers were intertwined with each other. She didn't look at me in the eyes,.. it seems like she couldn't..
"What is it? Or can't you speak? Has God take away your ability to make sentences?" I asked because I was becoming impatient.
"Are you....a-are you going to let him touch you tonight?" She asked in a timid tone?
I was taken aback.
"Serena, whether I decide to fuck the Duke of Gwaidth tonight shouldn't concern you at all...why does it bother you? You do understand that whatever happens between us is not meant to be permanent"....
She looked defeated.
"I'm sorry my Princess. I tend to get a bit jealous at times". She said with a slight curtesy.
"Good. Now leave me be. I require silence. I need to have a moment to myself before I get swarmed again".
She curtsied and walked towards the door...She took one glance at me and I at her, shared a small smile and she left.
My other maids helped me into my dress and I must say, I loved it:
I was really impressed with what I was wearing. My hair was put in a bun and decorated with flowers.
Gaia, one of my maids said "oh Princess. If only James could see you right now! I'm sure he would ask for your hand in marriage immediately!"
"I'm sure he will, when he gets here!" I said.
"And then we'd have a royal wedding! And a party!!! Oh Princess Regina! You must start courting him!" Said Flora, my other maid.
I chuckled, they seemed to be more excited than I was.
Soon, we were all gathered at the front to receive the Dukes.
"Dear sister, you look breath taking" Finnegan said with a look of pride on his face.
Father and mother were standing beside us on each side. Father was beside me and mother was beside Finnie.
"You look very beautiful my dear daughter. You are truly the rose of the realm" my father said.
Mother had to chip in
"She takes after her mother *chuckle*"
I replied "of course mother....I just hope I find the kind of love that you did"
The trumpets sounded and the carriages came into view... Both dukes came in different carriages of white and gold. The horses were white too as it was the law for only royals and high families to have white horses.
My heart started beating fast. The last time I saw James was before I and Finnie went to Voumond and univiel... Throughout that time, we only exchanged short letters talking about the next time we'd meet.. and now it's here.. he's here...
The first doorman came down and the door was opened. Augustus came down. He smiled at everyone and walked towards us.
"Good day your Majesty" he said with a bow and his right hand to his chest.
My father smiled to him "Welcome Augustus.. I trust your travels have been less stressful?"
He nodded and looked at the rest of us. He bowed to the Queen and went to kiss the back of her palm.
"You look so beautiful my Queen as always"
She smiled and replied "thank you my dear"
Just then, the other carriage opened as Augustus came to greet Finnie and I.
And out came James, the Duke of Gwaidth. This chocolate skinned man looked like he was straight out of the heavens....His smile always made me weak in the knees.. He carried himself in such a regal way that I was sometimes convinced that he must've been a king in his past life. We locked eyes and I felt my belly flutter.. He greeted my father and my mother before coming to greet Finnie then me...
We locked eyes for what seemed like forever...
"Your highness" he said with a bow as he took my hand and kissed the back of my palm
The he looked up at me....like he wanted to devour me.....
"Alright, let's all go into the place now, I'm sure the gentlemen are tired" my father said.
We all retired to the palace. Finnegan insisted that Augustus and James join us in the garden to catch up.
I ordered the maids to quickly make something for us to have while at the garden.
As we got there, I noticed that James couldn't take his eyes off me.
"You look rather ravishing today your Highness...." he said.
I turned to him "finally, you've said it"
He chuckled as we sat down.
"When are you both going to start courting? It's seriously taking ages!" Augustus asked.
"When the time is right!" I cut in.
"As you can see my fellow men, the ball is in her court. God knows that I have been in love with Princess Regina since I was sixteen.. and even now that I am twenty three, I still love her..."
I blushed.. he knew what he was doing by saying that.
Finnegan laughed and said "well...maybe she'll finally be ready after she's queen."
"Fuck off, the both of you" James said as he laughed.
All through our conversation, James and I kept stealing glances at each other...There was passion waiting to be untapped.
Night came. The rains were upon us...I couldn't sleep...I tossed and turned in my bed...yearning for my love. James... Suddenly, I heard the grand piano in the grand hall playing. My God who was playing the piano at this time of night....and it was Mozart! My favorite... my guess was James.. I decided to let curiosity take over me. I got up, took my robe and put it on. I went to the grand hall and its huge doors were opened. I hated entering there at night because it was barely lit. But tonight was an exception.
It was lit with five oil lamps....
I walked in, hoping that James wouldn't hear my footprints but alas! I wasn't stealthy enough.
"If you were an assassin, you'd be dead already". Said James as his strong baritone voice boomed throughout the room...
"Thankfully, I'm not" I said walking towards him.
I was now standing infront of him, beside the piano.
"Why Mozart?" I asked.
His hands were still on the piano, but his eyes were fixed on me.
"I wanted to draw you out".
"Now you have my attention James. Use it wisely"
He smiled "each time I see you Princess, my love for you grows more than it was before. It burns at the center of my heart and the flames are only rekindled by just the mere thought of you Regina"
Each time he called me by my name, my body shook.. it means whatever he said to me was of pure truth....
He got up and we were only breaths apart from each other.. My eyes were focused on his brown eyes...His scent aroused me....My hands had a mind of their own...my fingers traced his face.. his thick curly black hair... similar to mine but mine was a lot thicker.. his Afro was moderate and each strand on his head glistened with the lights in the room...then my fingers traced his face. From his defined cheekbones to his sharp jawline...my thumb grazed his thick, luscious lips. His eyes never left mine. He gently took my index finger and gently sucked on it. I let out a gasp... my center was on fire.
A moan escaped from my mouth "James"...
That was all the confirmation he needed.. he took my wrist and we hurriedly walked to his room. As soon as he shut the door, our lips crashed into each other. The rain, mixed with pleasure....then, he stopped..
"James, what is the matter?" I asked.
"I want to be gentle.. you're not some whore who's warming my bed... and May God strike me if I ever treat you as such....Regina...my heart burns for you...you've become a part of my life that if anything were to ever happen to you my love, I would perish.... we were made for each other... I will allow you as much time as you want to consider my request for me to court you...Regina Barrington...I come here as nothing but a man.. fuck royal titles.. fuck nobility.....I am a man before you...and I want you to know that I am yours forever. I——"
I placed my finger on his lips.
"James...your words have touched me this night...I will never forget the way you have made me feel tonight James Coventry....make love to me right now, here, on this bed..."
"But, you have been untouched, and-" he stuttered
"And tonight .....I give my body to you James, Duke of Gwaidth...no man has ever touched me...until now... you....if this doesn't tell you what I feel in my heart for you. Then I don't know what else will"
He looked me dead in the eyes
"So be it my love".
He slowly lowered his lips on mine and we engaged in a deep, passionate kiss.my hands used this chance to finally explore his body. I felt his muscles through the soft fabric of his night dress..we stopped to look at each other again. This time, I tugged on his night dress and he took it off.. He became vulnerable before me...I saw him for who he truly was. I took mine off... I had never stood naked before a man who was in the same naked state. Only Serena had explored my body..
"God. You are beautiful your highness...this is better than I imagined" he said in awe...
I had never seen a penis before.. His was beautiful and very attractive...Helena and Berenice had spoken to me about how to please a man. But I had never done it before. This was my first time.
We got on the bed and he laid down. I held him in my hands. I felt his body shake due to the warmth in my palms. I planted a couple of kisses on his member before taking him in my mouth. I heard him cuss under his breath. I kept my pace and I was enjoying it. After some time, he stopped me and made me lie down....We kept on with our passionate kissing.. he used his fingers to check if I was ready for him.. He gently sucked on my left nipple. Making low moans as he went to the right one. I moaned his name multiple times... then he went lower and sucked on my flower like it was his last meal...the motion of his tongue coupled with its wetness nearly drove me per the edge. He came back up
"Are you ready my princess. From what I can tell, you really are" he asked.
I nodded..
"Breathe" he said....
The pain was piercing. He kissed me to muffle my sounds...I felt a tear escape....
"I'm in....breathe Regina" he said.
I took some more breaths and he slowly began to move. Pain turned into pleasure.
"I love you" he said, with his face buried in my neck as he kept going in and out of me..
"I love you too James"
"And one day. I will ask for your hand.....and we will become man and wife" he said amidst his grunts.
I smiled and kissed him..
I couldn't think of anything else but the pleasure I felt with the man I love inside me.
"My princess.. I'm close..*grunts* I am close!"
Suddenly, he pulled out and ejaculated on the sheets...
He fell beside me. We were both sweaty and panting for air like we had just run around the palace grounds twice. He wrapped me in his arms and we talked through the night..
