I gasped, "Are you threatening?" I glanced at him with parted lips.
He drew himself closer to me and gripped my upper thigh. He pressed his thumb, intensely gazing at me, my heart began to throb along my body, "You've learned your lesson. The bedroom isn't far away if you haven't," His fingers dug in my skin. I felt the pain. My eyes turn glassy.
He removed his hand immediately. I saw a flicker of remorse for a few seconds before he hardened his expression again.
Then it was just a lesson, his punishment to his wife. I shouldn't get any feelings for him. He can be royal, but not loyal in our wedding.
"Your father is relying on us when it's about his business. I'll ruin him if you make any mistake." He threatened again.
' I've heard my parents talking about business, loss, but they smiled when I stepped out under the hidden place. But they never shared anything with him. '
His driver opened the door. He stepped out first and advanced his hand at me. Reluctantly, I put my hand in his hand. I wanted to run away. But I needed to talk to my parents first. His warm, strong hand closed over mine in a firm clasp. I tried to pull away but he gripped it too tight as we were lovers. I quickly dismissed the loving feeling and replaced it with anger.
' He can't treat me like this. He should be the one getting punished. '
I lifted my chin and I glanced straight as my mother taught me. I couldn't ignore the proud expression of his father at our sight. I held back a snort. Hadn't he seen his pictures? His mother was smiling proudly at our sight. Have they forgotten the pictures I sent of her son with another woman on our wedding night? I would love to remind them. I smiled but my smile disappeared when I saw my parents behind his parents and his brother next to them holding a soft smile on his lips. My heart rate picked up.
He's a vicious king.
I gritted my teeth as I lowered my eyes and kept looking at my heels.
Mary's eyes were warm on us. Edward stepped forward and kissed his mother's cheek, "How are you, Mumma?" He asked in a soft voice, his smile was full.
Mary touched his cheek as he was still a five years old kid, "I'm perfect."
"You should inform us when you are doing something out of your schedule." Richard's voice was sharp as he glanced at his son.
"Dad," He took a step back. His hand curled around my waist. I wanted to elbow him. I couldn't, "I was with my wife. I have every right to change my schedule." He said.
Richard's gaze turned to me. I gave him an awkward smile. Now, I was feeling stupid to send them the pictures. I should keep it between us. I elbowed him this time.
James chuckled, drifting forward, "Brother! I miss you." He chuckled mockingly.
I felt my mother's gaze in me. Her eyes were beseeching, not to create a mess.
He took me to his private island and we stayed there one night and returned the next day. He said- no one knew about the place.
My father's gaze was angry at me. So, I avoided looking at him. I wouldn't be able to hold my tongue, then. They were all acting as if nothing had happened.
Mary hugged me, "How are you?" She tapped her slender fingers on my shoulder, "Thank you," she said under her breath,
My anger disappeared. She must be enduring her husband's wrath, worrying about the repetition of her family. I didn't plan to hurt his family but him for sure.
"Were you decent?" Edward asked,
"He was," Mary replied, giggling like a little girl looking at her sons.
"How are you, my lady?" James asked, offering me his arm.
I chuckled and wrapped my arm around him, "I'm fine. What does he mean - 'decent'?" I asked with a slight furrow.
His lips parted in a big smile, "It's not easy to be the youngest one in the house." He looked up and shook his head. Mary laughed again. My mother smiled. I saw tears in her eyes. She wanted a happy family for me. I got them but only for show.
"Agree, lots of pressure from everyone," I said, smiling.
He gave me a full nod and withdrew his arm, "See you at the dining room," He kissed my cheek and scooted toward his brother.
I felt his gaze on me. I felt emotions swirling inside me. My mother took me in a bear hug and I thanked for the distraction.
