Raven then wrote him back.
Dear king
Perhaps I was too harsh
Forgive my rudeness in our acquaintance.
And I too have made a promise I'd never lay eyes on a man again.
It's too painful but it doesn't excuse my disrupting attitude towards you. I love the poetry.
Raven reign Wallace
Preston read it and he smiled and didn't hesitate to write her again. He then decided to deliver the letter himself. He arrived seeing Raven on the swing meditating and praying . She was listening to music . Preston came to her and delivered the letter.
"Oh! Is this from the king?" She asked excited. She rubbed the letter. "It's his handwriting alright. Can you read it for me?" Raven asked politely. Raven cut off the music and Preston ordered a help to read it. As she read it Raven had tears fall at how affectionate it was.
"I wish for this kind of love. But I don't think it is for me. 9 years and I thought I knew him. But.....he .. ..nevermore. thank you for reading. " Raven finished and she left .
.....
1 month had past and they wrote to each other nonstop. Raven was smiling ear to ear walking down the halls. Preston arrived and ge noticed her right away. Raven stopped hearing his footsteps and she waited on him. He smelled her perfume as he passed and it made him enchanted.
"Raven!!" A familiar voice shouted . It was Allison. She hugged her and raven smiled and she heard the footsteps walk away.
....
"Daddy and mom are having a party soon I want you to come with me!"
"Alli I don't know. "
"Please????" She asked and Raven agreed. They spent the day together with rumi heading back home after a long hug. Raven sat in the garden and Preston arrived again knowing she'd sit here every night. Preston sat with her and she smiled.
"Your highness."
"Preston remember?"
"That's in the letters. In person you are a king. "
"I'm a king but I'm also a man. Which makes me just as human as anyone. Especially when I feel for you." Preston said shyly. Raven smiled and looked down.
"I'm going insane feeling for you the way I do."Raven whispered .
"Could it be because you don't want to?"
"No Preston. " Raven replied and he loved her saying his name. " I want to ever so badly and I don't understand why after I told myself I wouldn't dare." Raven replied and he held her hand.
"I dare too." Preston challenged and Raven then looked at him not seeing him but feeling him near did something to her.
"Oh Preston I'm scared ." Raven whispered with tears falling. He understood .
"Don't Fret my dear in time your fire will rise again and you'll do anything that scares you." Preston encouraged wiping her tears and raven gasped at him being close and she felt his face impulsively and he held her hand.
"It's against our rules to touch the king ....but damn it I'd change it for you." Whispered in her ear. Raven shut her eyes in arousal. Preston noticed it and he touched her cheek. He went to her jaw bone.
"If you were my queen I would make you feel like this ."
"How....how much your highness?"
"Until you beg me to stop ." Preston answered rubbing her lips wanting to taste them. "Do you want me too ?"
"No." Raven shook as he kissed her lips and she kissed back and it was so gentle it made Preston aroused. He held her like she was his as they kissed. The servant came and they parted quickly.
"Your father is here lady raven."
"Thank you." Raven arose any looked at Preston. "When will I see you again?" She asked.
"Tomorrow. And I have a surprise. " Preston answered and wished her good night. Raven ran in the castle with joy. She sighed and sat her father and her face switched to her poker face as he taught her.
"Daddy." Raven greeted and she hugged him. She then heard her favorite person in the world besides him .
"GRANDPA!" They hugged and she had tears . "I missed you. How's miss June doing?"
"Wait a minute little lady we can't talk about my relationship when you got your own problems. "
"Yes we can and I won't take no for an answer!"Raven replied and Ozzie sighed looking at Richard.
"She's got her mothers stubbornness. "
"That never changed one bit." Richard chuckled. They sat down and raven sat by her grandfather .
"So how are you guys?" She asked.
"I'm alright..60 years old has Been treating me like your usual old man ."
"Oh stop it . You aren't old I won't let you talk like that or I'm telling mother and mary!"
"There's no need to tell my lady."
"I will too." Raven argued popping the muscular man. He looked Richard.
"When a man can tame her attitude that's how you know she's got her husband. " ozwald teased and raven gasped.
"That's rude! Daddy you gonna let him talk to me like that?" Raven pouted. As the men laughed at her. Preston came back forgetting his coat and he saw raven and she heard him. She sat up straight and moved from her grandfather .
"Preston. What are you doing here? Are you alright?" Raven asked concerned and he smiled.
"Do not worry dear I Am well I just forgot my coat." Preston said and Richard and ozwald looked at each other and back at them.
"I'll see you off then." Raven replied and she gave her father and grandpa a glare knowing they were being nosey. She told Preston good bye and he kissed her cheek and she blushed.
"If only you can see me. You'd see the love I have for you." Preston said and Ravens heart skipped and tears fell as he left wishing her good night.
.....
Raven came in with a smile of calm and peaceful. She then asked her father for the glasses she had before and he refused to pay for them which she understood. Raven paid herself and she got them in the afternoons. She put them in her pocket and she dressed for the king. He arrived after him Peter and Micheal took a trip to the market for their women. Preston saw raven waiting. He then kissed her cheek.
"Your highness. "
"My dear damsel ." He answered as she turned to him. "Come the surprise awaits."
....
"PRESTON! BE CAREFUL!" Raven shouted from the mountain they climbed at the beach.
"I will." Preston made it and he scraped his arm. She heard him groan. She gasped running to him putting the picnic basket down. Raven took care of him and as she did he stared at her in gratefulness.
"How can a blind person be so precise. "
"Because I practiced for 26 years." She admitted. "I wanted to be able to take care of Myself. And not be a burden to my future husband and children . So.....today I got a new pair of the glasses that help me see. And I didn't put them on until I told you. " Raven replied. She put the glasses on and Preston was a handsome man with the whitest hair and green eye's. She saw his arm's as built as a wrestler but he dressed as a gentleman.
"Handsome you are your highness. "
"Not as you are beautiful . Let's eat shall we." They ate talking and finding new things about each other. Raven enjoyed it so and after that wonderful Lunch raven lay on his chest. He held her close with his heart beating fast for her . They fell into a kiss and he felt her body as she did him. He made love to her hearing her virgin pleads for him to be gentle or keep going made him want her . He wanted to make her his but he did not release in her he wanted that to be special.
