I issued the decree myself.
Summoned her from the shadows of ordinary life into my gilded world of polished oak and candlelit alcoves. An outsider, defiant in her independence, eyes mismatched like forbidden jewels-one blue, one green-gleaming with the uncertainty she tries to hide. She craves belonging but fights it tooth and nail, whispering to herself that she won't break for a king.
Yet from the moment she stepped into my library, scrolls whispering secrets around us, I knew. Possession isn't a choice; it's my blood. I bind her under royal law, make her my plaything in alcoves where echoes carry every gasp. My hands map her surrender, turning her autonomy into chains that feel like wings. But damn, this woman with her wary confessions unravels me. My control, forged in ancient duties, fractures under her touch-her body yielding even as her gaze demands more.
We steal moments beneath the swaying garden tree, breeze tangling our breaths, where dominance blurs into something tender, dangerous. I growl commands that betray my ache, mark her skin where silk meets throne. She becomes my salvation laced with ruin, the one who sees the man behind the crown. Every thrust claims her deeper, but her trust pulls me under, mutual need twisting ownership into obsession.
Her independence hangs by the thinnest thread now-my emotional sanctuary, her illusion of self shattered if this devours us. Surrender feels like liberation until it doesn't. Was she mine to possess... or did she possess me first?
