"I never thought I would have someone sit on the throne beside me." Dante spoke, a slight echo repeated his words back to him.
Charlotte's attention turned back to the King. She had forced herself to look behind her, to where he stood.
"I've been sitting on that throne alone, for two years. I never planned to have someone beside me, it had never been a priority for me to find you." Charlottes heart sunk at his words, hurt flashing behind her eyes.
Dante caught the flash of hurt that went over her face, his heart aching as he told the woman he was destined to be with that he had never wanted to find her.
He took a few steps forward, his body pulsing with sorrow -- he never wanted to hurt her.
"One day, you will sit beside me on those thrones, having every responsibility and burden that lay on my shoulders, shared with you. Every duty and sacrifice that I make, you will make as well." Dante paused, his navy eyes flickering to Charlotte.
"I am Dante Xavier Lennox, the fourth King of the Lennox bloodline."
She found herself mouthing his name, almost as if she had been practicing it from the day she was born.
Dante watched Charlotte, his eyes softening in admiration.
"And you, αγάπη, will be the Queen of the people, as well as my Queen."
Nothing beyond the stars would separate the two souls that had been paired together, even if either of them had wanted it.

A Love So Royal
"Do you know what you've done to me, Annalise?" Her breath caught. "I-" "I can't think of anything but you." His voice was dark velvet. "Not since that night. Not since you pulled away." She stepped back-hesitant. He followed like a shadow. "Your Highness, you're-" "Different?" A slight tilt of his head. "Yes. You made me this way." Her hands trembled against her gown.

Indecorous
(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right.

NEVER EVER (Charlotte's story)
He let out a slight shrug, "Putting you to death was not what I was pointing towards. After all, it is merely the mouth that talks." I shivered, as I blinked naïvely, "Humph! A-And are there methods to silence this alone?" I huffed. He snapped his arrogant, coldly-heated gaze in my direction, and my insides clenched, as I noticed his deep, powerful ocean orbs snap down to my... lips. He then snapped his gaze away, fixing his right wrist watch as his deep, authoritative voice came: "Many, trust me." ~~~~~~~~ Fate has a weird hobby of slamming us right in the face about things we so took for granted. My name is Charlotte Thorne. Never claimed to be special, never cared about that. I grew up behind the pages of my books and in the different worlds of my love and romance novels. The world, as I knew it, consisted of my humble yet happy family, my studies, hobbies, friends and a potential perfect love story I was supposed to live. Now what happens when the world, as I knew it, turns out to be mostly a lie I've lived in for a long time? I conclude a simple golden rule: Love is pure, illogical crap. And so, long story short: with my nëw rules, a strict vow, a new family, fresh job, and on top of all those, a cold and arrogant Rickard Ellington Conway as my employer, guess I have a whole lot to deal with in this fresh new world of mine ─which'll get rather interesting...
