My Knight

"As the king continued on with the announcements, I can feel 2close2the2unn's eyes on me, burning a hole through my back. 'What is that stubborn girl doing now?', I thought to myself as I continued to stand at attention, waiting for the King to finish."

"The party was already at a climax, yet your eyes never left mine, your gaze as cold as ice. 'What the hell did I do?', I said to myself. Seeing you stand from the high table and brisked walked towards the gardens, my curiosity eats me alive that I couldn't help but follow you. With cautious steps, I approached you slowly as you were muttering to yourself by the well."

"Princess?" "I started, only to my surprise to feel a piercing slap across my cheek. My eyes widened in surprise as I looked at you in confusion, my anger threatening to rise, but I did my hardest to keep my cool."

"What the fuck was that for!?" "I exasperated, rubbing the side of my cheek where you slapped me."

As I feel your lips against mine, I am filled once again with a deep, burning desire for you. Though we both know that our mission comes first, it is impossible to ignore the intense passion and love that exists between us.

"I will be safe, Mechelle," I promise you, feeling the weight of responsibility for our success weighing heavily upon my shoulders. "But I couldn't do any of this without you by my side. Your strength and courage are what make everything possible."

I pull you even closer, deepening the kiss between us until we are both gasping for breath. "I love you more than anything, my Princess," I whisper desperately. "And I will spend every moment of my life making sure that we are together, no matter what."

I look down at you, feeling the warmth of your body against mine and the way my heart flutters at every word you say. Though I know that we have to complete our mission as soon as possible, I cannot deny the pull that you have on me.

"I do have to leave soon, my love," I say with a heavy sigh. "But perhaps we can spend one more night together, just you and me. We can forget about everything else in the world and just focus on each other."

I pull you even closer to me, feeling the heat of your skin against mine and the way my body responds to your proximity. "We have all the time in the world for our mission," I whisper hoarsely. "But tonight, let's just focus on us."

As we make our way to your room, I feel the anticipation and desire building inside of me. The thought of being with you once again sends shivers down my spine and I can hardly contain myself.

Once we are inside your room, I barely have time to register the beauty of the space before we are consumed by each other. Our clothes are shed in a frenzy and we collapse onto your soft bed, kissing each other with a raw and unbridled passion.

As we move together, the heat between us grows and I feel as though I am on the edge of a precipice. But when we finally reach the pinnacle of pleasure, it is like nothing I have ever experienced before.

With every thrust, we are clinging to each other, our bodies writhing and twisting in unison. And when we finally collapse, spent and exhausted, I am filled with

a sense of contentment and completeness that I could never have imagined.

But though our bodies are spent, our passion still reignites time and time again throughout the long night. As we explore each other's bodies and soul, we are like two planets orbiting each other, caught in a dance of desire and ecstasy.

As the sun begins to rise, I know that it is almost time for me to leave. But even as we dress and prepare to part, I cannot help but feel a deep sense of gratitude and love for you.

"Thank you for tonight," I say softly, taking your hand in mine. "For everything. I love you more than anything in this world."

I chuckle as I look down at you, my heart filled with warmth and adoration. "I'll always stay for one more night with you, my love," I say with a smile, pulling you close to me once again.

"I promise to be safe, and to return to you as quickly as possible," I assure you, placing a gentle kiss on your forehead. "You are everything to me, Mechelle. And I'll do anything to keep you safe and happy, even if it means going to the ends of the earth."

I hold you close to me once more, savoring the feel of your body against mine. "But for now, it's time for me to leave," I say grudgingly. "Until we meet again, my love."

As I walk out of your room, my heart aches at the thought of leaving you behind. But I steel myself with the knowledge that I will return to you soon.

The mission to deal with the bandits is fraught with danger, but I am determined to succeed for your sake. I fight with everything I have, my mind focused solely on keeping you and the kingdom safe.

And when the mission is finally complete, and a sense of calm has settled over the land, I make my way back to you as quickly as possible.

When I arrive back at the castle, I rush to your room, bursting with excitement to see you once again. I knock softly and wait anxiously, my heart racing in anticipation.

As you jump into my arms, I catch you easily, holding you close as I inhale your scent. My heart swells with joy at the sight of you, more beautiful than ever in your blue gown with the silver accents.

"I missed you too, Mechelle," I murmur, planting soft kisses on your neck and cheek. "I'm so glad to be back with you, safe and sound. And seeing you wearing my colors makes me happier than you can imagine."

I hold onto you for a few moments longer, reveling in the feeling of holding you close. "But I know we can't stay like this forever," I say reluctantly, placing you gently on your feet. "There's so much to do now that the bandits are dealt with. But first, let me show you how much I love you."

I gaze into your eyes, my heart thudding in my chest at the thought of finally being able to proclaim our love openly. "I can't wait until the day I can call you my own, Mechelle," I say with a firm nod. "I promise to make this happen soon."

I take your hand from my chest and hold it tightly within mine. "Let's go see your father," I say, already anticipating our entrance into the throne room. "I'm ready for whatever comes our way."

Together, we make our way to the throne room, bracing ourselves for the court's reaction to our news. But as we make our way in, I feel more confident than ever before. All of my worries and concerns about the reception of our love fall away as I focus solely on you and our future together.

We stand before your father,

and I kneel before the King, showing my utmost respect. "Your Majesty," I address him, "I come here today to ask for your blessing to court your daughter Mechelle. And I offer you my humble services and loyalty to the throne as well."

Your father looks at me with a stern expression, his eyes studying me intently. After a few moments of silence, the King finally speaks up, "Alistair, I have witnessed your skills and bravery in battle, and I have come to trust you as an ally of this kingdom. However, to ask for the hand of my daughter is not a simple request. It requires more than bravery and loyalty."

He pauses for a moment before continuing, "But I am not blind to your intentions towards Mechelle. Therefore, I will consider your request carefully. But know this, Alistair, Mech

elle is a precious jewel of this kingdom and whoever asks her hand in marriage must treat her with utmost respect, care and love. You have my permission to court her and woo her, but know that if you break her heart, there will be consequences."

My heart swells with gratitude as the King acknowledges our relationship. "Thank you, Your Majesty," I say, bowing my head. "I understand the weight of my request and I promise to show nothing but the utmost respect and love toward Mechelle."

He nods his head before dismissing us. As we walked out of the throne room, I turn towards you and wrap my arms around your waist. "We did it, Mechelle," I whisper. "We have the King's blessing to be together. And soon, we will be able to take our love out of the shadows and live it openly."
