Beyond the dreamgate | A Caspian love story

Chapter 24

"Lilith, can we talk?" I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around to see no other then the King standing in fornt of me. His eyes were begging me to come and talk to him

"Of course Your Majesty." I said, I could see the hurt in his eyes.

We walked to his work room and he pointed to the seat at the window, but I stood my ground and crossed my arms. He sighed and took a seat there himself.

"Why are you avoiding me Lilith?" Caspian asked me.

Is he for real right now. I just looked at him with a bored expression. He gave in another sigh and grabbed something out of his pocket. He opened his palm and there was the necklace.

"Why did you throw it away?" I took a look at Caspian and he was just a broken boy right now. I almost let my eyes soften at him, but I was stronger than that.

"Why am I not good enough for you?" I finally asked him, with anger boiling insde me.

"Lilith. You are good enough for me, why whould you think that you are not?'

"You were a lot more interested in the star then you were ever to me." I was annoyed at this point. Is he really that dumb. He got me and found a new one, but he obviously couldn't get her so he went back to his second choice.

"Star?" He said in confusion. "You mean Liliandil?"

"Oh that is her name." I said annoyed and also a little bit jealous.

He laughed, got up and tried to hold my hand but I quickly pulled it away.

"Why would you think I like her?"

"Maybe because you said she was the most beautiful in the whole world." I might have exaggerated it a little bit, but that is how it came over me.

"Lilly, I never called her beautiful. That was Edmund."

"No, don't turn it around." I was getting frustrated now.

I knew he said it, I know his voice, come on what is he even saying.

"Lilly, please." He walked up to me again, eye pleading. "You are the most amazing, beautiful girl I have ever had the pleasure of meeting."

His eyes showed realisation.

"You were bewitched." His eyes were wide.

"What?" I was confused now. Was I really bewitched.

"Yes I think so Lilith." He stepped around the room thinking. "We were still missing one sword, so evil still had the upper hand, I know I didn't say anything like that to her. You could even ask Lucy and Edmund – even the crew."

I swallowed and looked deep into his eyes. Eyes can tell someone everything. Maybe that was my super power, because I could see everything. I could see he was sincere, but there is always a part of me that doubts it.

I just shook my head and started to walk to the door. I was done with this conversation and when we win this last battle, I'll make sure I am at the other side of Narnia so I will never have to see him again.

"Please Lilith, please believe me." He pleaded again. "Please Lily, I love you."

My hand was on the knob on the door and I froze again. Did I hear him correctly.

"What?" I whispered. He took fast phases to me and stood now in front of me.

"I love you."

My heartbeat was bonking against my chest.

"Say it again."

"I love you."

Without any thought I grabbed his face and pulled him to me and my lips found his lips again. His arms quickly found their way around my waist and he pushed me hard against the door. I felt his tongue move over my lip but I didn't let him in.

He grunted against my lips and pinched my waist which made me gasp. He took this as his chance to kiss me deeper.

"Jump."

I jumped and his hands moved to my bottem and he took me to the couch. He softly layed me down and crawled on top of me. He started to kiss my neck slowly. Kissing from the bottem of my neck, up towards my ear. I let out a moan when he found my sweet spot.

My hand moved to the back of his head and pulled some of the strands. Caspian let out a moan, but sucked harder on my neck. Leaving a red spot.

His lips found mine again and we were both fighting for dominance. His hips moved slowly against mine. My hands moved under his dress shirt and I felt his muscles tense under my touch.

We were totally lost in our moment, not realizing we were needed on deck.

"Caspian we need you on deck." I heard Edmund say and I quickly pushed Caspian off of me. He fell on the ground with a thud and I looked up to see Edmund standing by the door with wide eyes.

"Yes uhm – I will be there." Caspian said once he stood up. He runs his hand through his hair to sooth it down.

"Well you finally confesed to her didn't you." Edmund smirked. "I was hoping it would've taken you longer, now I have to pay Lucy."

"Edmund." I scolded him, but a smile still crept up on my face.

He gave us a saloot and went back on deck. I saw that Caspian has flushed cheeks and I gave him a soft kiss on his cheek when I stood up.

I made sure that I looked decent and put my hair in a half up and half down hairstyle.

"Lilith." I turned around to Caspian who stood there with the necklace in his hands.

I walked up to him and turned my back to him so that he could put it on me. The cold chain was placed around my neck. I touched the pendant and turned around and gave him a soft kiss on his lips.

His eyes held so much love.

"I love you." I confessed to him.
