"There. That's the smile I've always wanted to see. It's five o'clock. You must set out now. Mr. Thompskin has been so grateful to gift you a horse and a carriage, and already I've loaded your mother's box inside. There's no need to return to the Salvador house. And if Gregor Smitten asks, I'll tell him you couldn't bear the thought of marrying him, and so you eloped with someone else."
"Oh Aunt Jamie, come with me. Since you were a little girl, you've always served the house of Salvador. It's only fitting that you come with me. For I'm a Salvador, and Gregor is very far from being that. We can start than new life together" "Delilah said earnestly, taking both of Mrs Jameson's bristle hands in her soft ones
"I can't Delilah. I wish I could. Gregor Smitten is a powerful man and very dangerous man. It would be too suspicious if we both disappeared at the same time. Plus my grandson is still back at the manor. If I did run away with you now, I don't know what Gregor Smitten would do to him. And yes I may have served the Salvador for years, but my grandson is presently my only blood relation. And so I must place him first" she replied earnestly, almost as if in distress
"It's alright aunty Jamie. I completely understand the value of family. So... I guess this is goodbye? I'll miss you so terribly. Who's going to put me in check and advice me on what to do?" Delilah's eyes began to water once more
"Oh come here" Mrs. Jameson croaked and they both hugged each other once more, both of them crying this time around. "You are a brave woman Delilah. And I'm very confident that you will find the right path, true and unique to you, all on your own. No matter the obstacles you meet along your way. I'm immensely proud of you. And I'm sure your mother is as well, wherever she may be"

A week later, and right in the heart of Florence, at the most famous court of all, the Court that had been been assigned the unique tag 'The Gentlemen's Court', Sebastian Westmoreland, the head of the court, cursed harshly one more time, as he stepped out of the bath, his errand boy had prepared for him.
If care wasn't taken, Jordan was going to start a really slow process of peeling off Sebastian's skin daily, with the scalding hot water he specially chose to use to prepare a bath for his master. Bathing was fastly becoming a punishment for Sebastian. It was beginning to feel like entering a cauldron full of hot oil.
The poor boy had been with him for a very long time, so he was loathe to send him away. The boy also happened to be slightly deaf, and not very intelligent. Which is why, he did things clumsily, and often forgot Sebastian's specific instructions. Like, not putting boiling water for his master to bathe in. Sebastian had soft skin. He'd much rather bathe with lukewarm water, than a scalding hot one.
He deftly secured his white towel around his waist, before stepping out from behind the shower screen, only to rear back in shock, almost hitting his back on the screen, for there stood before him, the Queen of Florence, in nothing but a sheer pair of slippers to her feet. For she was as naked as the day she'd been fucking born.
"My Queen. I wasn't expecting you" he made a slight bow, for curtsey's sake
"Oh quit the formalities Sebastian. We both know it isn't required of you here. Although you do look quite the ravishing gentleman, in just that towel, don't you Sebastian?" Rebecca, the Queen of Florence, smiled oh so delightfully, the rhetorical question popping off her tongue just as easily.
"What are you doing here Becca?" he finally sighed, securing his towel firmly with one fist.
"Oh yes. That's the Sebastian I know and love. The one who gives me nicknames." she smiled gleefully, stepping forward, until she got to where he was, placing both her arms on his chest, caressing his well defined body. Before her hand slowly journeyed down his well defined abs, not stopping until one of her hands got under his towel to grip his penis and start stroking, while her other errant hand gripped his arse
"I came here to give you the grace of fucking me, Sebastian" she whispered in his ear, the hand stroking his cock, increasing it's pace
Sebastian swore in the five languages he knew fluently, right in his very mind. This woman was going to be the death of him. Already, his body was responding to her touch, the caress of her nipple and soft, firm breast against his chest. And the mere fact that a naked body was even in close proximity with his at all
He shot his hand out to still the onslaught of hers, over his already aching member
"Not today Rebecca. I have a public caning to preside over."
"I'm your Queen. You answer to me. And if I say I want you to fuck me, then that is what you will do. No questions asked. You're one of the most powerful men in Florence, Sebastian. But your power is second only to mine. Try not to let that power get in your head. You're still under my rule" she reminded him, like the spoilt, petulant, little brat she was, automatically lashing out the only way she knew how, — like a child not given her favorite toy.
"How could I ever forget? You manage to remind me of that, every single time we meet. Now this public caning I'm presiding over, was ordered by you, yourself. As punishment for an errant gypsy. Imagine I don't show up for it. How's that going to look like, for your people? You want them to fear you. You want them to respect you. But they will think you weak, if commands you put out, are not being carried out. Like the public caning" he chided, stepping out of her arms to go over to his wardrobe, so he could change into his already laid-out outing clothes for today.
He carefully unclad his towel, and let it drop to his feet, knowing full well that she was watching. If the woman wanted a show, then let her have one. He knew he had a great body. It came from vigorous hours of training, and exercise.
