“Oh?” She raises an eyebrow suggestively, driving me mad.

I can barely keep my composure as we pass the guests. “Honored guests, thank you for joining us,” I tell them as we walk down the garden path. “We look forward to seeing you at the banquet. Now, if you’ll excuse us…”

Judging from the benevolent smiles and nods, it seems that everyone understands the situation perfectly well.

As soon as we’re out of sight, in a small grove of lush bushes, I set Finley down on her feet and kiss her deeply.

Hungrily, insistently, she returns my kiss with equal fervor.

Sweet Goddess.

I would die for this woman. I would topple empires for her. I will rule this empire in order for her to be safe.

With great tenderness, I lift her into my arms once again.

She lets me, enjoying my undivided attention.

I move like the wind, heading for my chambers. I’m about to devour her from head to toe, and she’s going to enjoy every moment of it.

She’s mine now.

And nothing will ever come between us.
