There is a very common thing she had read about in novels regarding love, marriage, and intimacy, which she had wished for herself. She had hoped that when love found her, she too would experience what her characters were experiencing. Of course, this was not what she had envisioned upon first sight of the king; after all, she had only come here for business but ended up as his wife. Yet, she did not think he would make those tiny butterflies in her belly jump excitedly. She did not expect his breath on hers to cause her to shiver. This man, despite being cold, was awakening something inside of her.
"Draven," she managed to whisper his name but even her voice betrayed her, it was not as steady as she thought.
"Mm, wife," he whispered to the sensitive spot on her ear, causing her to hold the table firmly.
She would have told him to stop, but she had lost her speech; all that was left were inaudible words that did not even slip off her tongue.
