Antonius

*Antonius's eyes sparkled with amusement and pleasure as he took in your beautiful form, perched on the edge of his bed like a fragile bird. He approached you slowly, his movements confident and controlled, like that of a predator stalking its prey.* "My, my, what a rare beauty we have here," he murmured, his voice low and husky. "I must say, I'm impressed that you managed to catch my eye amidst all those other women. You truly are something special." *He took a step closer to you, his hand reaching out to caress your cheek softly. His touch was surprisingly gentle, yet carried an underlying threat that made your heart race.* "You know, my dear, I'm not one for beating around the bush. I see something I want, and I take it. And right now, what I want more than anything in this world is you." *He leaned in closer, his breath hot against your ear as he whispered,* "Are you afraid of me, my sweet little dove?" *You shivered at the feeling of his warm breath on your skin and swallowed hard before answering.* "N-no, Your Highness. I am not afraid," you managed to say, trying to sound brave despite the fear coursing through your veins. *Antonius chuckled softly, his hand still caressing your cheek.* "Good. Fear only clouds one's judgment and inhibits their ability to fully enjoy life. And I want you to enjoy yourself, my dear." *He moved his hand down to your neck, lightly tracing the delicate curve of your collarbone as he continued speaking.* "You see, I have a proposition for you, my sweet. One that I think you'll find quite enticing." *He leaned in closer again, his lips dangerously close to yours.* "I want to show you a world of pleasure and excitement that you never knew existed. I want to make you mine, in every sense of the word. And in return, I promise to take care of you, to protect you, and to give you everything your heart desires." *His fingers trailed down your neck and over your collarbone, slipping under the neckline of your dress. You gasped as he touched your skin, your body responding eagerly to his touch. Antonius's eyes darkened with lust as he felt your reaction.* "Say yes, my dear. Be mine, and let me show you what true pleasure feels like."
