Don't say I didn't tell you

Shortly after we packed up the picnic and returned back to the castle, I had not spoken a word to Henry since the kiss and the silence was awkward but necessary we needed this time to think. I needed the silence more than Henry, I was trying to get my head around what he was saying. We wouldn't be raising Nicholas to be King but my child would be raised to be ruler instead, not my child my son. Henry specifically said that I would bear our son who we would raise him to be the next King, this had me thinking about what would happen if our firstborn would be a girl rather than a boy.

Even saying our firstborn meant I was thinking of having many kids with Henry, the idea did seem rather normal if only the circumstances of our relationship were normal whereas it was far from it. I put Nicholas to bed seeing as he fell asleep on the walk back he must have worn himself out with all his adventuring today, I walked slowly back to the King's Chambers lingering longer at the door than considered normal but I wasn't yet mentally ready to see Henry.

As I was just about to open the door it opened itself, revealing Henry on the other side with a worried look on his face but when he saw me his face went blank revealing no emotions. "Oh there you are, I was about to go and look for you," he said as if it was an inconvenience for him having to go out and look for me. I didn't say anything about his comment just nodding my head and walking into the room, Henry closed the door behind him as he walked close behind me silently.

I slowly undressed fully aware that he was staring at me, I suddenly felt his cold hands caress my bare back. He slides the dress exposing my shoulder until my dress is on the floor, his hands went to my waist as he pulled my body flush against his. I felt him bring his head next to mine and then rest his chin on my right shoulder, I felt his breath against my ear. I shuddered as his hands went to my stomach "your body is a temple my love" he whispers huskily as he holds me in a tight embrace. "You shall be treated like the goddess you are," he says kissing my skin his teeth nipping at places making me weak to my knees.

I'm grateful that he was holding me otherwise I would have fallen, I turn around so that I'm facing him I look into his eyes and I see lust and want and need. I feel him pressed against my hip, I would be lying if I said that didn't turn me on a little. I stood on my tippy toes to reach him as I grabbed his face and kissed him softly, I pulled away before he could slip in his tongue. I slowly undid his buttons one by one giving each button my full attention until his chest was exposed to me, I slid his shirt down his arms and threw it behind me.

I slowly traced my finger along the lines of his abs as he made a quiet grunting noise before pulling my hands away he brought them to his mouth as he kissed the tips of each of my fingers delicately. "I-I-I" I stutter trying to form words as his hands travel down my body, "don't speak let our bodies do the talking for us" he whispers kissing me softly. Our bodies were flush against each other as he leads me to the bed, the sheets have never felt so soft against my skin. Henry's intense gaze on my body made me feel insecure and I grabbed the blanket to cover myself, but Henry's hand stopped mine.

"I told you not to hide your body from me" he growls and I nod letting go of the blanket, I pull his hand and place it right over where my heart is. "Hear how fast it beats" I whisper my voice a little rougher than normal, along with his ragged breath I lay back onto the bed letting him devour my body with his eyes. He bit his lip before climbing on top of me, he leant on his elbows so none of his weight was on me. He trailed kisses slowly down my body nipping his teeth on my flesh leaving his mark on my body, I ran my hands through his hair. His lips were soft and warm against my skin, I shivered at his touch as a strangled moan came out of my mouth.

I stopped and looked at me with a smirk on his face, "I love that sound" he says continuing his assault on my body causing more moans to escape my mouth. He pulled away before things got more intimate and he pulled my body against him and he pulled the blanket over us, my heaving breathing filled the room as I tried to calm myself down from that heated session. He nuzzled his head in the crook of my neck and I giggled feeling ticklish, he kissed my collarbone and I sighed feeling tired. 

"Get some sleep, my love, you've had a long day" he whispers holding me close to him. Yawning I nod my head letting my eyes close, "this doesn't mean I love you" I say sleepily and I get silence before he sighs pulling me closer. "You will eventually," he says his voice sounding tired. "I could never fall in love with the person who murdered my parents" I whisper more to myself than to him. I need to remind myself of who this man really is and what he is capable of.

But if I had to tell myself not to fall in love with him, it means I'm already falling
