Chapter 64
Sophie was shocked when the line that Jose had installed went off, she had completely forgotten about it and if it had not gone off, she would never have remembered it was there, she walked to it and picked it up.
“Hello?”
She whispered wondering who it was among the king, Jose, and Riley who could have access to it. She slept for most part of the day after the king had left. It has been so long that she has stayed awake all night fucking that she was all sore and tired but very satisfied.
“Soph,”
The king’s voice echoed over the phone, it was hard to miss his voice when it carried so much authority and power, and at the same time, it left her weak to her knees with how sensual he sounded.
“My king,”
She responded.
“I am sorry, but I have some things to deal with outside of the palace and I won’t be back tonight,”
He told her. Her heart sank because she had been expecting him to show up anytime. Still, it felt nice that he called to tell her instead of just leaving her hanging and waiting blindly for him, plus, he even apologized. She got the king apologizing to her, it felt like a dream. She was screwing the number citizen of Otano and carrying his child, the thought of her baby left a lump in her throat, in an alternate world, she would tell the king the child belonged to him and they would end up together but this was reality and all she was going to get was this temporary relationship that they have.
“Soph?”
The king’s voice echoed over the phone again and she realized he was waiting for her to respond.
“I understand, my king, please take care of yourself,”
She responded to him.
“I will, you do the same and I will see you once I get back,”
He said and hung up. She missed him immediately the line went dead.
“I guess I have to sleep alone tonight, cons of hooking up with the king,”
Sophie let out as she walked back to her room, she contemplated going to the other room due to what she had done with the king the previous night in the room she uses and the fact that he wasn’t going to be there with her tonight but she decided to torture herself by going to her room, it wasn’t so late yet but she saw no reason why she should stay awake, she got on the bed and memories of the night she spent with the king flooded her head. She wanted him again but sadly she couldn’t have him tonight.
“Patience Sophie, patience, he would be back,”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
She consoled herself. She fell asleep to the memories that they shared on the bed and like he had done the week that they couldn’t be together, he visited her in her dream and made slow burnt love to her. She woke up the next morning horny as fuck, she hoped he would be back like he promised because she couldn’t go days without him being inside her. It would drive her crazy and she was sure of it.
Sophie took her bath, even though she was horny and wanted the king back, she was still in a happy mood, not as happy as she had been the previous day but still happy, she sang to herself and the baby as she got ready, she planned on continuing the cardigan that she was knitting for her little one, she wished she had videos she could learn with so that it would turn out even more perfect but she couldn’t ask the king for tv, she didn’t want to ask him for anything. Since Riley became her personal aid, the others stopped coming to the emerald house, only Riley came in to serve her and she at least spoke to her even though she didn’t stay long.
The door to the emerald house opened and Sophie looked up from what she was doing, she expected Riley to show up with her lunch but it wasn’t lunch that she brought, she had luggage with her, which she dropped in the living room after greeting her, before Sophie could ask her what it was for, she already left. She came back with Jose who carried more things, she could only watch as they went back and forth, bringing things into the living room.
“What the hell is all these for?”
Soph asked when they were finally done; looking from Riley to Jose. A luggage, plenty of various snacks, bottled water, and juice, she was sure the luggage contained clothes and the most surprising of all was the TV, as if the king had her thoughts earlier. She was sure everything was from the king. Who else would have so many things sent to her?
“The king asked for these to be delivered to you,”
I know these are from the king, my question is why? What are these for?”
Sophie asked.
“My lady, that question is quite difficult to answer, you have to ask the king directly,”
Riley answered. Sophie was still not used to being addressed as my lady; she still didn’t want to be called that.
“My name is Sophie, I have told you that before, my lady? I am not royalty and I don’t have a status in this palace,”
Sophie told her. She knew it was useless trying to talk her out of referring to her as that but she would keep trying. She watched as they started pacing the things that they brought in place, she was right about the luggage containing new clothes, she carried it to the room she was using and brought everything out, they looked expensive and way out of any budget she would ever have. Sophie waited until Riley and Jose left before she decided to call the king. she knew she should just accept whatever he gives her but she didn’t want gifts in exchange for sex, that wasn’t who she was and it would never be, better to stop it now than later even though it seemed like the nicest gesture for the man she was fucking, she didn’t just want it to become the norm for them she wasn’t sleeping with him for the things she can gain from him. She was with him because she wanted him. Against her better judgment, she picked up the phone and pressed the speed dial button. She felt anxious while waiting for him to pick up, she half expected him not to but he did after the second ring.
“Why did you tell them to bring all these? I don’t need any of these things, Your Majesty,”
Sophie let out once he took the call, she forgot her manners and hoped he would not reprimand her for it.
“Soph,”
His voice echoed over the line and her heartbeat increased. His voice was enough to do things to her, she shook her head to clear her thoughts, she shouldn’t fall in love with him, she already liked him too much for her own good and he was doing the most, gifting her things that she would never have had access to. At least he didn’t scold her. He sounded tired, he must have been busy throughout the whole day, yet he still made time out to tell Jose to get those things for her. Heck, he was making it hard for her not to like him even more.
“My king, you didn’t have to, I don’t need those things, I have been doing fine without a TV and so many fancy clothes, not like I am going anywhere,”
She told him.
“Soph, I am already on my way back to the palace, I will see you soon and you can tell me about it,”
He responded and hung up on her, Soph glared at the phone.
“Well, at least, he would be back soon,”
She said and a smile formed on her face. She suddenly felt excited knowing that his coming back would mean more of what happened the previous day. Even though he said he was on his way, he didn’t show up until after nine p. m., she was so ready for him to call and say he couldn’t make it again when the door that connected his chambers to the emerald house opened and he walked in.
