The Adored One

What You Won't Do

AN: Officially the second part to The Adored One. Nereyda comes to a decision about her future with T'Challa. Or rather, the decision is kind of made for her.

Nereyda woke up abruptly to T'Challa's head between her legs, already coming from his ministrations. Her loud gasp in the dark room alerted him that she was awake, and he continued to leave long kisses on her clit, even as she shook through her wake up call.

"Good morning," he said nonchalantly, as he pressed kisses up her body, between her breasts, to her lips, twining his tongue with hers. She could taste herself in his kisses and she arched her back to get closer to him. Lining himself up, he sunk deep into her with one thrust. His eyes glowed in the dark and Nereyda felt as if she was spinning, lost in them.

Good morning indeed.

When he left two hours later, pressing another kiss to her lips and a dip in his walk, the sun was just rising, bathing the room in a golden light. The bed felt colder without him, the room larger without him, but Nereyda knew that he had a responsibility to Wakanda. It wouldn't do to be late to his first meeting as king. Nereyda wanted badly for him to stay with her all day. She needed more of his reassurances, felt a hollowness inside that only T'Challa could fill.

The ringing of her kimoyo beads from the nightstand brought her out of her musings. She wrapped the sheets tighter around her naked body before answering.

"Sister Nina what do you want?" Nereyda had a smile at a call from her favorite fellow dora. Nina had a bright personality and thick curves that drew men to her. She, along with Mother Folami, encouraged Nereyda to give T'Challa a chance.

"Damn bitch you bounced to that next dick fast as hell!" Nina cackled into the phone. "You're still in bed reminiscing on how good it was?" Nereyda could see that she was in the middle of the market and she hoped that people weren't eavesdropping on the conversation.

"Eh! What are you talking about? I am still in the palace."

Nina looked at her confused before muttering a "hold on." There was a lot of shuffling on Nina's end while Nereyda flopped on to her back in frustration. When the picture cleared again, Nina had left the outdoor market area and was walking on the road to Mother Folami's house.

"Okay girl. What do you mean you are still at the palace? You ARE packing your things right?" Nina raised an eyebrow at her friend and Nereyda couldn't meet her eyes.

"Um. I was but T'Challa came by last night and we're all good." Nereyda thought for a second. "At least he told me we're good."

Nina clucked her tongue. "Sister. Do not be foolish. He is saying that to keep you in his bed but his actions say something else!"

"What do you mean?" Nereyda say up when Nina hesitated. Nina never bit her tongue or held back. "Spit it out. If you know something or if I'm out here looking a fool, you have to tell me."

Nina sighed. "When I was in the market, I saw T'Challa...with Nakia." Nereyda' stomach dropped, her face going gray, prompting Nina to continue. "He proposed to her and she said yes. Everyone was talking about our King and his queen. I just don't want you to be hurt even more."

Nereyda closed her eyes against the truth of Nina's words and a tear fell down her cheek. She wasalready hurt; she'd expected at the very least he'd have the decency not to lie.

"You're right, Nina. It's time for me to go."

Nereyda was surprised that she was able to find an apartment that same day in the outskirts of the city. She didn't know whether to be shocked or resigned that T'Challa didn't come after her. She heard that he'd left Wakanda on a mission, one that he brought Nakia on. There were no more tears left to cry at that point.
