We ended up on his bed somehow. Don't ask me how. One second we were staring at each other on that damn balcony, the next I was flat on the mattress with Lorenzo leaning over me like some predator who had finally cornered his prey.

"Fuck," I whispered, half under my breath, half at him. My heart was pounding so hard I thought it was going to burst right through my chest.

His lips were inches away from mine, his breath hot against my skin. "You're trembling," he said, his voice low and rough.

"No, I'm not," I shot back, though my whole damn body betrayed me.

His hand slid down my arm, slow as hell, until he caught my wrist and pinned it above my head. His eyes burned into me, and I swear he looked like he was seconds away from eating me alive.

"You're lying," he murmured, almost smirking.

"And you're an arrogant King," I shot back, though my voice cracked.

"Maybe," he said, tilting his head closer, his lips brushing against the corner of my mouth. "But you're still here. On my bed, My Queen."

I bit my lip so hard I thought it might bleed. My whole body screamed at me to push him away, run, do something—but I didn't. I couldn't.

"Lorenzo..." I whispered his name like it was a curse.

His smirk faded, replaced by something darker, hungrier. He pressed his forehead against mine, his breathing heavy. "Careful, Mellisa. If I kiss you right now, I won't stop."

Shit. My whole body was on fire. I should've told him no. I should've gotten up. But instead, I pulled him closer.

His mouth devoured mine again, harder, deeper, until I couldn't breathe, couldn't think. His hands were everywhere - greedy, shameless - sliding down my sides, gripping my hips like he was trying to claim every piece of me.

"Fuck, Mellisa," he growled, breaking the kiss just long enough to drag his teeth across my neck. "You have no idea what you do to me!"

I gasped, clutching at his shoulders, my nails digging into his skin. "Then show me," I shot back, breathless.

His laugh was low, dark, sinful. "Careful, My Queen. I don't do soft. Once I start, I'll ruin you."

"Then ruin me," I whispered, shocking myself.

Something in his eyes snapped - that steel control of his shattered, replaced with pure hunger. His hand slid under the thin silk of my gown, rough against my bare skin, and I moaned, arching into him before I could stop myself.

"Goddamn it," he hissed, his lips crashing onto mine again. He kissed me like he wanted to swallow me whole, like he'd been starving for years and finally found his only feast.

The shawl was already gone, but now the gown was too - he ripped it down with no patience, his mouth trailing fire along my collarbone, my chest, every inch he uncovered. I should've been embarrassed, but all I could feel was heat, everywhere, unstoppable.

"Mine," he kept muttering against my skin, between kisses, between bites. "All fucking mine!"

And I let him. I let this impossible, infuriating man take every piece of me, because in that moment, I wanted him just as badly.

My eyes opened at the sound of birds chirping. The ray of light entering right into my eyes, making me nuzzle. I felt a heavy hand on my waist. As I turned back, I saw a beautiful face.

Lorenzo.

"Awake already, My Queen?" He asked, while smiling softly. How long has he been awake?

"Yeah..." my mind flashed through all the things we had done last night. My face immediately became red and covered my face with the blanket that was wrapped around me and him.

His deep chuckle filled the room as he hugged me tightly while still lying down. "Don't be embarrassed of having sex with your Husband."

I can't believe he just said that without no hesitation.

"Excuse me...I have to get up..." I began to look for my cloth but only found a piece of it. I almost forgot he ripped off my dress. Great. "You are buying me a new night gown."

"I will but you hundreds of new night gown." He replied immediately while smiling.

"How will I go to my room now?" I asked.

"I guess you can't." He shrugged.

"Lorenzo"

"I love it when you say my name, My Queen." He got up and came towards me. "And I love it even more when you..." He bend towards me and kissed me gently. "Scream it."

This man...!
