Their Princess

Chapter 35

I see them enter the castle doors, greeting Daddy and Rey. It's not a huge family. Two men, three women, and a toddler. Eli tells me one of the women with platinum hair is Shafira. On her left is her mother, and next to her is her sister in law.

Then there's Shafira's father and her younger brother. She also has an elder brother who has been disowned after the treachery, which Eli didn't elaborate about. After a few seconds, Eli pulls me back from the window when they enter the castle.

There are two small windows in my room, one  facing the castle main door and another the forest. However, Daddy has renovated the whole floor for me so I can go and rest in any of the rooms.

There are around sixteen rooms on this floor with a grand balcony facing forest, which is wisely locked by Eli. Then there is a kitchen and a playroom for me which Daddy prepared so that I don't get bored. He has also allotted me a study room and placed my study material there.

But I don't think I'm going to be using those rooms much. I've chosen the most comfiest and coziest room to stay. It's like my little den or nest. Daddy ensured that every stuff was to my liking, i.e.. soft and comfortable. 

Eli has his own room and office on this floor, but I don't think I want him gone away from me longer. I wonder what they're doing downstairs. 

“ It will be over soon, baby. I promise.” Eli assures. 

I shrug lightly, going in his arms, hugging him tight. I'm grateful he is here with me. I don't think I can survive alone now that I've become accustomed to their love and care.

There's a beep on Eli's tab, signaling someone has entered our floor. Eli gets up to check.

“ Stay here. I will be back.”

After a minute, Rey enters. I jumped on him excitedly. “ Rey Rey. I missed you.”

He chuckles, holding me tight. “ I missed you more, baby. I came here to see if you were doing okay? Do you need anything? Do you like the room?”

“ It's perfect.” He walks over to my bed and sits. Eli also drags my cushioned chair to sit on.

“ How is it downstairs?” He asks seriously.

Rey shrugs, playing with my fingers. “ I'm not completely sure. Alerix has allotted them on the first floor. He wasn't happy that they all decided to crowd here. But they assured us that the younger brother and his wife will leave tomorrow evening. They just wanted to meet us.”

“ They were disappointed that you and Zed weren't there. Alerix ignored it and got right back on the deal.”

Eli rubs his face in frustration. “ I don't know why, but I don't like this situation. It feels wrong, like we are betraying our girl.” 

Rey kisses the top of my head. “ Alerix said the same thing. He ordered them to hand over the technology in a week and get done with the rest of the deal.”

“ What did they say?”

“ Shafira’s father Dacotah got suspicious, but Shafira assured that the week’s time was enough to fulfill the deal.” 

“ How's Daddy?” I interrupt them.

Rey smiles at me. “ He misses you. He told me to inform you that he will come tonight.”

“ He will sleep here?” I ask, excited.

“ I don't know about that. He just told me that he will come visit you. Maybe you can convince him to stay the night. You can try. I'm positive he won't say no to you. After all that my baby has done.”

“ I haven't done anything, Rey.”

Rey laughs. “ Oh my sweet berry, you don't even know how amazing you are.” He rubs his beard against my cheek, tickling my skin. “ My sweet, innocent girl.” Peck on my cheek. “ You're the best thing that has ever happened to me.” Hugging me tight, he rocks us back and forth.

Eli kisses my neck and inhales my scent. “ She is a brave girl. I'm so proud of you, baby.”

I'm blushing when he kisses my cheek over and over again. This is all that I want, being cherished and adored by them. I feel content when they're around and hold me tight in their arms. What more can I need?

My stomach growls loudly. Yes, food. Add food to the list. Eli gets up and prepares me something healthy and delicious while Rey kisses my knuckles, telling me how much he adores me again and again.

It's past midnight when Daddy comes looking way too exhausted. I was planning to scold him for coming so late but think better of it. It looks like he needs to sleep more than my tantrums right now. I can scold him tomorrow. 

He comes up to where I'm lying on my bed with Eli. Cupping my face, he kisses my forehead and then cheek.

“ How's my baby doing?” 

“ You're late. She was about to fall asleep.” Eli comments.

“ I know. Just got caught up in a loop.”

“ Don't make it a habit. I know your work is important, but that doesn't mean you keep her waiting. It's past her bedtime, but she refused to sleep knowing you were coming. It's only the first day, Alerix, so please make sure you don't repeat today. If it affects her, then it affects all of us.” Hearing Eli say those words, I realize why he was so unfocused today.

I thought he didn't like to be stuck on this floor, but I was so wrong. He just didn't like the situation we were in. He gets up to leave the room angrily. I don't like him leaving like this.

“ Eli. Stay.” He stops on the door, debating his next move. Sighing, he turns to face me.

“ I'm coming. Just need a shower. Okay?” I mumble a small okay. With that, he leaves.

I turn to Daddy, who is studying my face carefully with a serious expression, so I do the same, mimicking the flutter of his eyelashes.

Amusement shines on his handsome face. With a chuckle under his breath, he pulls me closer by my small waist.

“ I'm sorry. I will do better next time.” 

I guess I'm feeling way too forgiving today because I rewarded him with a kiss on his lips. He relaxes under my touch and starts to move his lips against mine. My hand clutches his shirt tight while his hand on my waist starts to trail up and down my back and butt.

I moan when he squeezes my butt in his big hands. I wonder what he thinks of my small frame against his huge one. He rolls me to my back, coming over me to kiss me harder. Like he can't get enough of me. 

I try to pull away to catch my breath, but he cups my chin to smash his lips against mine. The kiss is getting sloppy now. He will bite, lick, and then kiss it to sooth. 

I gasp when his hard dick touches my thigh. Groaning, he adjusts his position and throws his tongue in my mouth. I moan louder, tasting every bit of him. 

Wait, how long is his tongue? 

He is sucking so hard on my tongue that I can't tell where my tongue ends to meet his. He groans when I moan, pushing on his chest to tell him that I need a break. He backs up with a final sloppy kiss to my lips.

My chest heaves up and down in exhaustion. If his kisses tire me up this much, then what will happen if we move further? 

I open my eyes to see him already staring at me in wonder and adoration. His lips are swollen red, and I bet mine are no different.

“ You're amazing. You know that?” he whispers in a husky voice.

I open my mouth to reply, but only a yawn comes. Who knew a kiss could exhaust you this much? Chuckling, he rolls me to lay on his chest. “ Sleep, baby. I am here now. You're safe.” 

He covers me in my blanket and puts his right thumb in my mouth while his other hand pats my butt rhythmically. With my senses now calm, I finally fall into a deep slumber. All is perfect when Daddy is here.
