Chapter five: Dungeon for my Queen

Jamie looked around the chambers now with curious eyes, looking for possible escape routes. She didn't know whether the voice was sincere or insulting. First, the voice apologized and then he insulted her eyesight. Jamie wished she was with her fighting stick to knock him on his ass.

"You can look at me, Janessa"

"It's just Jamie"

Jamie turned her eyes and for the first time, she saw him. She had been around fine men but this king was different. His short black hair was neatly combed to the back. He was almost as tall as her father and Jamie was baffled, she had never seen anyone as tall as her father. Elliott came close but not quite. He looked like a sculpture with his chiseled jaw line and distinctive straight nose. His eye color was confusing, it had a shade of both blue and green and...brown. Good God! They were hazel. He was on the bed now, moving closer to where Jamie was sitting.

His high cheekbones looked man made and too perfect, his lips delicious and tempting.

Come on, Jamie! No sinful thought about him!

When he was close enough to her, she pulled the smaller blade from his waist with so much precision and speed that the king did not see it coming.

"Try not to move, his highness. The blade is pressed near your vital artery, one nick and you will be dead in less than a second"

Jamie held the blade tightly to his neck yet the man appeared unaffected and nonchalant.

"This is no way to treat your husband and king, Janessa" he whispered so softly that it almost sounded like he was trying not to spook her.

"What happened to my tunic and pants, his highness? Who undressed me? Might I advise you to choose your next words carefully?"

"I asked for your tunic and pants to be burnt. And I should have a word with your father, don't you think? He shouldn't have let you run wild and dress in male clothing like a hog hag. You weren't even wearing a corset"

"Ahhh? How did you know that? Did you spy on me when I was undressed?"

The king laughed like she made a joke.

"Spying would take a considerably amount of finesse, I can assure you I don't have."

"Then explain to me how you know I wasn't wearing a corset, King"

"Because i undressed you, you think I would let someone else handle my new wife"

"I should really kill you right this moment-" Jamie said through her clenched teeth angrily.

Then suddenly she was on her back with the king on top of her with a huge blanket covering them.

"What are you doing?" She whispered

"Hush! Someone is coming. Be quiet and try not to cut my throat. I might overlook your poor attempt on intimacy but I assure you my council won't. The punishment for threatening the king and the crown, I am afraid is death"

"You are lying! Get off of me!"

Jamie didn't see what happened next coming. One second she was threatening him and the next his lips covered hers, eliciting the quietness he wanted and sending Jamie sensations she didn't know she had or wanted.

Before she could react, there was a slight knock and the door flew open.

Jamie stared at the intruder that had just barged into the king's chamber with her in a compromising situation and she wanted to scream for him to get out but her mouth was otherwise occupied.

Everything the king did to her was new and strangely sensational. Unlike girls in her kingdom that has experienced a stolen kiss once or twice in their lifetime. Jamie was more preoccupied in being a great warrior and possibly one day, a knight of Namura.

The king alternate between slowly nibbling at her upper and lower lips, just applying enough pressure for the kiss to be delicious. He didn't want to overwhelm his new wife, who might be a feral cat in her past life. He was going to enjoy taming her.

When the king first saw Janessa she stood there quietly, he murmured to himself here was another Namura princess that would shiver in his presence and cry endless for her home at night. It bored him but his honor had to be mended or he would have asked his warriors to take her back. But then Janessa spoke with an air of confidence laced with threat at the king that could order her death in a minute and the devil of Aradale was intrigued. And now, he was kissing a girl he barely knew.

Jamie had no idea when she stopped fighting the king's imposed kiss or when she dropped her blade. She must have nicked him on the neck because when her hand instinctively went around his neck to pull him closer to herself, she felt just tiny drops of blood dripping down his neck.

"His Highness?" The intruder quipped inquisitively.

The lighting in the chamber must have been poor or the intruder would have fled after finding the king and his new bride.

"Get out!" The king pulled away from his new object of amusement enough to growl at the intruder.

"Yes, milord" The intruder fled.

Jamie might have protested gently when the king suddenly stopped kissing her. She might have wanted the kiss to continue as it was better than the reality of finding out, she just kissed her captor and she had enjoyed it too much.

"Easy sweetheart, you will have all of me sooner than you think-"

The king had sooner finished his statement than he was suddenly again on his back with a blade to his throat. His new wife was feisty.

"Don't call me sweetheart! I am going back to Namura and you will not stop me, milord" Jamie was still recovering from the sensational experience she just had.

"No, you are not. If people finds out I lost two wives under a week, they will think something is wrong with me. I can't have them think that now, can I?" The king sounded nonchalant and relaxed, possibly amused.

"I have a blade to your throat, you don't really have a choice in this matter, milord" Jamie reminded him

"I have had a blade to my throat ever since I was a little boy, it doesn't scare me, Monisha"

"What's Monisha?" Jamie inquired. If he had insulted her again, she will cut him and watch him bleed.

"My woman or wife or girlfriend..... Monisha in your case means my woman. You belong to me now, sweetheart. Now, take the blade away slowly, I have a war to plan" King smiled sweetly but dangerously

"No!"

"You can stay in my chamber or take a walk in the garden if you accept me as your husband. It will save a lot of time or you can stay in the dungeon chained to the wall" The king gave her a choice.

"I would rather stay in the dungeon than spend another minute up here with you, milord"

"So be it, I shall grant your wish" The king replied.

Jamie wasn't expecting his reply to her dare and she let her gourd down for a second and suddenly the king disarmed her of the blade and was on top now.

"Guards!"

The door flew open and two young men entered.

"Show the Queen to the dungeon!"
