Here you stood. Three steps down the throne. Parents on either side of you. King Harrington at the center, his parents whom stepped down on either side of him, and King Harrington's personal knight on his right.
You practically shook, like a baby deer in ice, as your parents introduced you. You'd just turned 19 and Harrington 21.
He hasn't chosen a wife yet so his parents threw a Presentation Ball, where nearby kingdoms would bring their of age daughters and show them off to the newly made king. And he looked bored as he observed the presenters and presentees. But, unbeknownst to you, you seemed to have caught his eye, as well as his knight's.
Harrington's parents seemed disinterested and waved you lot off, calling out to the next. You own parents grumbled all the way down the stairs and to your assigned table, scolding you once settled and fixing your clothes. They mouthed that this dress was not modest enough, but also not attractive enough at the same time. You've disappointed them and lost a chance for your parents to become allies with the Harrington royal family.
You watched the rest of the presenters go up and down, about 15 of you in total. You watched how the four of them interacted, which ones his parents approved of and which ones they didn't. King Harrington hadn't given away much emotion, only communicating with his personal knight through a series of subtle hand gestures. But what you failed to notice the is glancing, how both of the men watched you sit beside yourself and nervously fiddle with the jewels on your dress.
Once everyone presenter was sat, King Harrington and his parents discuss the suitors quietly to themselves so that the people below do not hear them. They seem to be disagreeing on something but King Harrington seems to be standing his ground on whatever decision he has made.
Once the bickering is over, they tell their decision to the castle staff that was placed as Announcer today. He steps forward and catches the attention of the 15 families below.
"The royal family of Forestside," The announcer calls out. "Please step forward."
Your parents gawk for a few moments before getting up and rushing you forward, standing at the bottom of the stairs. They await, rather impatiently.
"Your daughter has been chosen by the royal Harrington family to be his newly wed," He says. "King and Queen, you may stay here for three days time for the wedding and it's preparations, then you will leave your daughter here once you leave. Do you accept?"
You parents graciously accept.
The announcer nods, "We will get your settled in the visitors wing of the castle. And set off the rest of the presenters."
Castle staff file in and lead the other families out and to their ships while some more comes and lead you three to a room in the visitors wing.
Once on the bedroom, some of your parents' personal staff rushes in and got them settled for the night, congratulating them. And one they were settled in bed, some of your personal staff guided you to the bathroom and took care of you. They knew how scared you were and reassured you that they've heard some very nice things about King Harrington from the other staff of the castle. They got you settled into the other bed in the room and bid you a goodnight and that they would see you in the morning.
The next three days pass by quickly and by now you're running on steam and nerves. You hadn't been sleeping good.
The wedding and it's preparations went well, and you said goodbye to your parents soon after. Your staff got you settled in King Harrington's quarters the night after the wedding.
King Harrington, or Steve as he said for you to call him, seemed nice, charming even. He'd kept the conversations friendly and comfortable, trying to get to know you.
His knight, Eddie Munson, was nice as well. He was practically Steve's shadow and was slowly becoming yours as well.
Both men got you settled comfortably, and about a month after the wedding is went the flirting started. Steve started it, and you only noticed when he became more touchy. And the more you noticed the flirting, the more you noticed that the men seemed to flirt with each other as well, only when there weren't prying eyes around.
When you seemed to reciprocate Steve's flirting, Eddie started as well. He poked and prodded. You quickly became overwhelmed with both men hitting on you practically all day and every day.
The flirting became kissing and the kissing became rather inappropriate touches, from you in private and from the men practically everywhere they could get away with it. Sometimes you were with just Steve, other times with Eddie, and other times both at the same time.
And that brings you to now.
You'd just gotten back from whatever important duty you'd personally been called to. You'd longed to be back in bed, having been woken up before the sun today. But you encountered a sight.
Steve and Eddie on your shared bed, making out. Or rather Steve sitting on the bed and Eddie hovering over him, obviously overpowering the other man as he had a hand squeezing around his neck. Both were oblivious to the door squeaking open, but whipped their heads open when the door thud shut.
Eddie's panicked gaze softened when he saw you and he stood up to his full height. And Steve blinked quite a few times, obviously a little kiss drunk.
"You wanna join us?" Eddie asked, making his way to you. "We just barely started."
"Oh umm," You twiddled your fingers. "Sure!"
The king and the knight had embraced you in their arms almost instantly. They took their time with you, offering you pleasure before chasing after their own. It was well into the night before anyone had settled down.
When one of the maids had come in the next morning to wake the King for royal business, she had only smiled and backed out. She figured whatever important duty summoned the King could wait for a few more hours.
