“I will never lie with another man, nor welcome his touch or kiss. I did not understand how deeply I hurt you in the past. Not until the festival, when I received a small taste of my own medicine.”

“I did not understand,” she emphasized, as if begging him to forgive her.

“Now I do. It has taken me too long. And during that time, I have hurt you deeply. How will you ever forgive me?”

He gave a minute shake of his head, unable to speak, a lone tear escaping the trap of his lashes to slide down the outer corner of his eye.

She caught it on her thumb, brought it to her mouth and drank it down.

“I am sorry for everything I’ve done to bring you pain,” she whispered huskily, her own eyes shimmering with unshed tears.

“I promise, as Amun and Hathor are my witnesses, I willneverknowingly hurt you again. I will find a way to rule alone. To enable Ehab to take the throne when he is ready. I will satisfy the kingdom’s needs as well as my own. I will never sacrifice you for the crown. For you are the most important and precious of all to me. I do not want to—cannot,will not—live without you.”

He cupped the back of her head and brought their foreheads together, shutting his eyes to squeeze out the tears. Her words were a balm to his bruised and battered heart.

He believed her. He had faith in her.

She might pray to her gods, but Shai only believed in Heba. If she said so, she would do so. And a peace he’d not known since he was a boy began to fill him like a breath of fresh air.

“Shai…” she entreated, seeking his mouth.

He gave her what she wanted, opening for her voluptuous kiss, tangling his tongue with hers.

He rolled her to her back and clasped her hands, intertwining their fingers beside her head, holding her prisoner beneath his weight.

Then, he began to love her.

Moving slowly, deeply, within her, stroking her where she needed him most. Where no one but him would ever reach.

She raised her eyelids at half-mast, as if she didn’t have the strength to open them fully. For she was submerged beneath the tidal waves of his passion, tossed to and fro in the endless rolling waves of ecstasy.

But she kept her eyes connected to his by sheer force of will. And when they kissed, their souls fused.

He loved her all night like this. Took her on her back, on their sides, on her stomach, on her knees.

Her mound and nether lips were swollen and red by the time the first rays of dawn filtered through thin gaps between the wood planks of their enclosure.

But she was still so wet and tight. Both slick and sticky with their combined juices, stuffed so full of his cream it leaked down the insides of her thighs.

He played with her entrance with his fingers, thrusting his seed back inside of her when it tried to ooze out, rubbing against her knot from the inside while his thumb worried her button from the outside.

She played with him too. One hand idly pulling on the swollen head of his undying erection, squeezing and teasing his too-sensitive glans, rubbed raw from their exertions. He didn’t care. He welcomed the aching, sweet pain, even though it made him hiss in blissful agony when her nail probed his reddened slit.

Her other hand played with his hole. Fingers teasing in and out of him and rubbing his perineum and balls. He lost count of how many times she made him come. His body never stopped shaking, never stopped breaking.

He let her take whatever she wanted from him. It was the sweetest torture he would ever endure.

And then, she pushed him on his back for one final ride before they must dress and brace themselves for the day ahead.

She rode him with abandon, arching her back, elongating her throat, her hips rotating and snapping, her core clenching convulsively around his achy cock.

He released one last time within her, wrung out every drop of seed. She clasped him tight and devoured him with her body, her mouth.

And when their heartbeats settled, she said:

“I love you, my Shai. Always have. Always will. I love you beyond love, husband of my heart. I believe in you. Please believe in me too.”

“Together, we will make this right.”
