He didn’t say anything to that. Instead, he just approached me, and leaned against the railing of the terrace, staring into the darkened distance.

“I always thought that Cass would need to fulfill this role,” I said, feeling guilty, but unable to prevent myself from saying this. “She is the older sister. But it turns out that it’s my responsibility.”

“Seems to me that it’s just better for everyone this way,” he said.

“For everyone, but me,” I corrected him, as we seemed to stare at the same invisible spot in the distance. I turned to him. “You know, I envy you.”

“You do?” he smiled. “Why?”

“Because you have no obligations to anyone,” I pointed out. “Other than to your employer, of course.”

“You’re forgetting the other side of the coin,” he said.

“Which is?”

“No obligations means no family, no one to care for or who cares for you,” he reminded me.

I frowned, but I had to admit that he was right. “OK, you got me there.”

“And the king seems like a nice guy,” he added. “I’m sure you could talk to him about anything.”

“Yeah, it does seem that way, doesn’t it?” I mused, looking down.

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness washed over me. My vision blurred, and before I knew it, I found myself leaning dangerously close to the edge, downward. Panic gripped at me, but in that moment, I felt Adrian’s strong arms wrapped around me, pulling me back from the railing.

Time seemed to freeze as our breaths mingled, our hearts beating in tandem. The rush of adrenaline coursed through my veins, mingling with the vulnerability and the unspoken desires that simmered between us. With our bodies pressed against each other, I felt the heat of his presence seep into my skin, creating an electric current that connected us in ways words could never express.

“Are you alright?” he asked, our eyes stuck to each other.

All I managed to do was nod. I had no idea what happened or how I almost lost consciousness. Maybe it was the stress or the weight of it all. I didn’t know. All I knew was that now, I was in Adrian’s arms, and nothing else mattered.

He looked at me in a way that assured me he understood everything. It was that profound understanding which transcended the barriers of uncertainty. It revealed all the unspoken longing inside both of us. Without a word, our lips metin a fervent and passionate kiss, a fusion of pent-up emotions and the realization that neither of us wanted to be anywhere else but here.

It didn’t matter that we were outside. It didn’t matter that someone might stumble ono us and see us kissing. None of it mattered. The world around us faded into insignificance as we surrendered to the intoxicating power of that kiss. It was a moment that defied logic, defied the rules that bound us, and embraced the undeniable connection that pulsed between our souls.

Before we could even pull apart, we stumbled back into the darkened hallway, where he pushed me against the wall. I could sense the animal inside of him. He had been keeping it under control for such a long time. Now, he couldn’t do it any longer. I knew that feeling well, because I felt the same.

The eastern wing was the most secluded part of the whole castle, mostly because it needed to be renovated. Father always told us not to come here, but the forbidden places were usually the most tempting. Now, the solitude and darkness of the hallway worked in our favor.

Before I could do anything, Adrian dropped down to his knees, lifting my nightgown and pulling down my panties. He placed one of my thighs on his powerful shoulders for support, spreading my other leg apart. That was when his tongue slipped into me, without any warning, and all I could do was bite my lip in ecstasy at this unexpected turn of events.

Instead of taking it slowly, he kept thrusting his tongue inside of me, as I lifted my arms above my head, closing my eyes and enjoying the moment. It felt like I was floating, this feeling of sheer delight as his tongue lapped at my pussy lips. As if able to read my mind, he then started to suck my clit, nibbling on it gently, which only seemed to enhance the thrill.

I lowered my hands to his hair and grabbed it, thrusting my hips, grinding my pussy more and more against his lips. I couldn’t stop myself even if I wanted to. I knew that we shouldn’t be doing this. At least, not here where anyone could see us if they chose to go to the eastern wing in the middle of the night. But this didn’t feel wrong. If anything, it felt as if a long-forgotten wish had finally come true and all we could do was welcome it.

His raging tongue was driving me crazy, devouring me. It took all of my conscious effort not to moan loudly. I knew that my echo would reverberate throughout the castle. I couldn’t let that happen.

At that moment, he slid a finger into me, continuing to suck my clit, and this was when I couldn’t hold it in any longer. A powerful orgasm whipped through me, my entire body trembling. But he didn’t stop there. He continued to finger fuck me, slowly, creating that sound of wet friction, which was driving me even more crazy.

When he decided that it was enough, he got up, pulled me up into his arms and pressed me against the wall. I used the tips of my fingers to wipe his wet mouth, but he shook his head.

“I want you on my tongue,” he told me in a whisper.

His hands were squeezing my hips, as he stared me down. “Take it out,” he told me.

He didn’t need to say it twice. He said it in such a commanding tone, which made it even hotter. I did as he told me immediately, my fingers fumbling with his zipper, as I felt his stone hard cock press against his pants, dying to come out. All the while, he kept his gaze on mine. Neither of us looked away even for a single second. The air was charged with raw passion.

His grip tightened as he spread my legs wider with his hips, pressing his bare cock against my wet, throbbing pussy. My heart started to beat faster than ever before. The first timewasn’t like this. There was so much need and yearning now. Neither of us could control it any longer.
