Emily’s POV
“He’s getting MARRIED TO SOMEONE ELSE?” Gen asked, her last words ringing out.
We were back at the hotel, in my be-droom, and I was sobbing like a child who didn’t get their way at something. Gen came over and wrapped her arms around me.
“It’s going to be okay Em.”
“H-How?” I cried.
“Maybe.. maybe he wouldn’t get married…maybe he’ll put you first and call off the wedding.”
“I don’t think he’ll do that Gen. His responsibility isn’t to me anymore. It’s to his father and his country. He won’t give up the throne for me.”
I sat up and stared out the window facing the now pitch dark ocean. I felt hurt but I had no reason to be angry at Sebastian for the way I was feeling. We were just rekindling a bond that had been broken almost ten years ago. I had no say in his life and his choices.
My phone rang. I answered without looking at the screen. His voice spoke.
“Why did you ran off Emily? You didn’t even give me a chance to explain things to you.”
“I’m sorry Sebastian but I couldn’t stand being there anymore.”
“Being here or being here with me? Emily, I don’t want us to pull apa-rt from each other again.”
“I think it’s for the best Sebastian. I don’t want to be in your way of happiness and marriage.” I wiped a single tear away. This was ha-rder than I anticipated. Telling the guy you love to move on and love someone else.
“Listen to me, I don’t you worry about that situation. Can I see you?”
“Like right now?”
“Yes. I’m already outside your hotel.”
“Okay. I’ll see you in a bit.”

I freshened up and ran outside to Sebastian’s vehicle. I got in the p@$$enger’s front seat and pulled him into a hu-g. He shot a small smile and brushes several hair strands behind my ear. The palm of his hand cu-pp-ed my cheek. The feeling settled me. He looked me in my eyes and I looked into his. Just at that very moment, I felt at home.
He drew me closer to him. Every inch closer, my heart pounded heavier. It was a feeling I felt only once in my lifetime. A feeling only Sebastian could let happen.
Our li-ps met. His minty breathe erased the hurt and my eyes closed instantly as I took him in. His sweet manly fragrance circled me like a blanket as the ki-ss dee-pened. His fin-gers went throu-ghmy hair as did mine to his. I couldn’t control my small mo-ans. Everything about this man felt right and his prese-nce was like a medication in the right dosage. I nee-ded him.
When the ki-ss came to an end, I felt cold and then reality hit me like a bolt of lightning. I nee-ded him but I wasn’t about to have him.
“Seb, I don’t know how to call ‘this’.. but what are we to…” I was asking but he cut me off but placing his fin-geron my li-ps.
“Stop. You’re worried about where we’re heading but you don’t have to be. I’m right here with you.”
He started his Range Rover and drove us to the beach front I intended to put up the hotel at first. We held hands and walked p@$$ed the land and walked down to the seashore. The stars were abse-nt from the sky and the moon was dull.
“Sometimes, when things get too over-bearing at the palace, I would come down here to think and get some time for myself. I like it here.”
“It really is a beautiful view at daylight. I’m sorry for overstepping on your land.”
“Ha! I actually bought you here for another reason. You can have it.”
“WHAT?”
“You can have the land to build your hotel… but on one condition, it must be named after me.”
“Yes. Of course yes. Thank you so much.”
“You’re welcome.” He embr@ced me
“I lo…” The words almost escaped my mouth a bit too soon.Way too soon.
“Huh?”
“I love it here too but I think we should head back before your bo-dyguards show up again.”
We drove back to the hotel and when Sebastian got his goodnight ki-ss, he didn’t let me get out of the van.
“Hey, where are we going again?”I asked when he stepped on the gas.
“To my be-droom.”
“Wait, what?! Are you going crazy?” I was terrified. Outsiders weren’t welcome into a Royal Palace and definitely not at night.
“Sebastian, please stop the van and take me back to my hotel at once!”
“Relax. We’re not going to get caught. I usually take a back p@$$age to my quarters.”
And that he did.

I slowly walked into his be-droom. The golden theme intimidated me. The silk gold sheets were neatly la-id on his be-d with pillows to match. A hu-ge chandelier with low gold lights hung in the middle of the be-droom and the fluffy rug un-derneath my feet was as white as snow.
“Sebastian, I can’t be here,” I protested.
” Of course you can because I took you here.” I watched from the corners of my eyes as he got undressed. I continued looking around the be-droom, admiring everything in sight.
“Come Emily.” I turned towards him. He was now in a bath towel that only concealed the lower pa-rt of his bo-dy. My eyes darted to his abs. All six were carved out and bordered by his V line. It was another sight to take in.
“Are we going to the shower?” I asked.
“No. I’m taking you outside to my Jacuzzi. Grab a towel and follow me.”
I followed him throu-ghseveral gl@$$ doors and up a flight of stairs. Finally, he pushed throu-ghanother gl@$$ door and a bubbling jacuzzi was waiting for our bodies.

Sebastian’s POV
I got into the steamy hot Jacuzzi first and I watched as Emily slowly made her way over. She was so beautiful being shy.
“Finally. I was turning into an old man here,” I joked when she eventually got in. I immediately pulled her into my waiting arms and for once, my mind was rested. With Emily, I felt like a free man. I was just Sebastian and not the Prince with duties, responsibilities and expectations to a people and a country.
I stared into her beautiful grey eyes. The water had plastered her hair to her back and made her tan skin look naturally flawless. She was amazing in every way and I didn’t wait another second to ki-ss her with p@$$ion and flare.
My hands roamed her bo-dy and I pulled her even closer towards me. Her pair of bre-ast s rested perfectly against my che-st as she straddle me like a woman on a horse. Her hands went throu-ghmy hair as the sweet melody of her soft mo-ans sounded in her throat. Her hands then traveled down my che-st, lower… and slower. My head tilted backwards and my eyes shut as she took me into her hand and pla-yed me as a shaking dice. My breathing increa-sed and so did my mo-aning. I couldn’t remember the last time I felt so good.
I felt when I ha-rdened un-der the pressure. She ki-ssed me again and I had to wonder what she was thinking and how appropriate would it be if I ask to have her but without another word, I felt her sliding me into her.
“Em, are you sure?” I stopped to ask. I didn’t want to for-ce anything on her and I didn’t want her to feel she nee-ded to please me right now.
“I want us to,” she whispered in my ears.
I recalled back in high school, Emily would only ki-ss and hu-g me and not anything more but now she was fierce, saying exactly what she wanted and I allowed her to have her way. She rotated her wa-ist once I was there and I held onto her back, sealing her steady on me as we bounced up and down.
“Seb….”
“Say my name baby. Tell me everything you want to tell me.”
“You feel so good. Oh my gosh!”
She was getting a bit too loud for the outdoors. I picked her up and carried her back to my be-droom but we never got to the be-d. We did our business on a near-by couch and ended up on the floor with me on top of her. I took her in as I hammered her. She bit her bott-om li-p and covered her jiggling bre-ast s but I quickly removed her hands and took her left brea-stinto my mouth before the other one.
“Sebastian,” she mo-aned as she explored on me and I returned the favor five minutes later.

“That was so amazing,” she said as we la-id on the comfortable rug, her head on my che-st and my hand around her.
“You’re amazing,” I responded before placing a quick ki-ss on her forehead. “I think we should get clean up and get some sleep.”
“Okay.”

The next morning, a knock came on my door. Emily immediately sat up and a look of fright washed over her sleepy face.
“Don’t worry, you’re safe in this room. It’s room service. Breakfast,” I explained.
“Oh,” she said and rested her head back on the pillow. I got into a pair of pa-nts and T-shirt because it was impolite to answer the door with missing clothing.
I took the tray of breakfast back to the be-droom.
“Here, you can have my breakfast.” I sat the tray down on a small table next to her. She rolled over and looked at me.
“After breakfast, are you taking me back to the hotel?”
“No. It’s safer to do that at night.”
“Okay.”

Emily’s POV
I was somewhat disappointed because I was feeling like a little hide away secret but I dare wasn’t ready to ask him to slap a label on us. I was afraid that he was going to say what I didn’t want him to say.
Last night, we had s-x and it was a firework and I’m still dizzy about it. I couldn’t ruin the moment with asking him for a label.
I had his breakfast and shot a quick text message to Gen. Then I took a shower and wore one of Sebastian’s over-sized T-shirts I found in his walk in closet. I styled my hair with my fin-gers since I couldn’t locate a brush or comb and walked towards to patio without actually stepping outside.
The guards were prese-nt at the gate and grounds and several gardeners were tending to the hedges and flower be-ds.
“Hey, I’ll be out for a bit this morning. Father and I have to attend a meeting. I’ll see you soon,” Sebastian said when he found me.
“But I thought we were spending the day together. Why would you bring me here if you were only going to leave me here?”
“I’m sorry Emily, but I just found out about this. I promise it wouldn’t be long. I’ll be back soon.” He placed a soft ki-ss on my li-ps and left the room.
I heaved a sigh as I went back to the be-d.
A few minutes later, the door made a rattling noise to indicate that someone was trying to get in.
“Sebastian is back so soon?” I asked myself as I got off the be-d and watched the main door from a distance. A maid got in and I ran to find a hiding place. I went into his closet and watched her movements from throu-ghthe closet door.
She made the be-d and took the empty breakfast tray to her cleaning cart outside. She vacuumed the rug and cleaned the gl@$$ door while humming a very old English song.
Then someone else walked into the be-droom.
It was her.
She wore a white skirt with pa-ntyhose and a stylish blouse. Her head was filled with bouncing beach curls and she was so pretty.
“Ah, good morning Your Highness, what can I do for you?” the maid asked her.
” Oh nothing.I just wanted to see if my Fiance was still no.”
“No Your Highness, he already left with his father.”
“Excellent. They were supposed to meet yesterday but Sebastian cancelled. My mother would be so happy that the wedding is happening earlier than the scheduled date.”
“Ah. Sounds like great news Princess.”
“Yes. Carry on Beatrice.”
She left the room and left me in a world of sad thoughts.
‘Earlier than scheduled? Sebastian’s wedding? How could he? So he left to have the wedding moved to an earlier date? But last night…. I thought that….’ I sat down and sobbe-d.
The closet doors busted opened.
“MY WORD! Who are you and what are you doing in here?”
I was sp-otted by the maid.
