I Did Not

“I did not!” she said, but her face said otherwise.“You did!”“No, I didn’t.” Lyra crossed her arms, grinning wider. “I was being respectful. I said ‘aww’ like a lady.”“You said it like you wanted to pat my head and give me a gold star for being emotionally repressed.”“Or maybe I said it because I’m used to guys in my world being all ‘what’s your favourite position’ before even learning my last name.”“Oh.” Was all Elias could manage.“Ugggh. I have to go down for dinner. I’m famished,” Lyra groaned, dragging herself to her feet.Elias rose from her bed, heading toward the door. “Okay. I’ll see you downstairs,” he said smoothly.But then he paused at the door, turning just slightly with a mischievous grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. “Oh, one more thing… we have to get married as soon as possible.” And with that, he turned the knob, opened the door, and bolted.For a second, her brain simply refused to process the words. Then—“What? Elias! Get back here!” she shrieked, dashi

Here You Go

“Thaddeus?” Lyra called as she stepped out of her bedroom, her bare feet brushing against the cold stone floor. The corridor was lit only by the low flicker of candle sconces, painting shadows on her face and glinting softly off the sheer nightdress that left little to the imagination.Thaddeus turned the corner. He gave a strangled little sound, caught somewhere between a gasp and a hiccup, then turned his whole body away as if struck blind. “My lady,” he managed. “You shouldn’t go around the castle like that. I—I will get you your robe.” And with the urgency of a man on a holy mission, he vanished into her room as if it were a crime scene.“All of you around here are prudes,” she muttered under her breath, folding her arms in mock irritation. “God forbid a woman has knees.”Thaddeus returned seconds later, holding out her robe. He kept his gaze firmly locked on a very interesting spot on the ceiling. “Here you go, my lady.”Lyra took the robe but draped it casually over one arm, maki

You Could Never Be Lirae

But he wasn’t hearing her. Or maybe he didn’t want to. Maybe he thought if he drowned in her, he wouldn’t feel the guilt anymore.“You could never be Lirae,” he slurred, eyes dark and unfocused. “I can never love you.”Lyra’s breath hitched as he tried to pull down the strap of her nightdress.She reacted without hesitation.SLAP.Elias’s head snapped to the side. And then—his rage flared.He grabbed her again, harsher now, shoving her backward until her back hit the wall. Lyra winced, pushing against him, her eyes wide with disappointment.And then the door burst open.“Your Highness!”Thaddeus stood in the doorway, chest heaving, his usual grace gone.Elias froze. His hand still on Lyra’s wrist. His breath coming out in short, guilty bursts.He looked between them—Thaddeus’s disapproving stare and Lyra’s heartbroken eyes. The shame was instant and blinding.“Lyra…” he said.She slowly straightened her dress, smoothed her tousled hair, and walked out without another word. Every step s

You Ask Him

“You ask him,” Elias responded simply.Lyra stared at him. “Great. I’ll just ask the King of Terra Lucida why he killed me—while I’m standing right in front of him. Sounds like a fun brunch conversation.”“There’s no need to be sarcastic,” Elias said, pinching the bridge of his nose. “You just have to pick his brain for what he knows.”“Right. Because murderers are so chatty. I’ll just walk up and be like, ‘Hey Your Majesty, remember that time you may or may not have stabbed me? Care to unpack that trauma for me?’” she snapped.Elias exhaled heavily. “He wouldn’t have hurt her. Matthew would never hurt Lirae.”Lyra crossed her arms, unconvinced. “You say that like you know him. You said so yourself, you trusted him and he took the throne from you. People do all sorts of awful things and still sleep like babies. What if he’s been lying this entire time? What if he killed Lirae himself and now he’s just playing the gracious royal act?”Elias shook his head firmly. “No. He’s many things b

Is Thaddeus Not Back Yet?

Elias, watching the exchange from below, felt his jaw clench. He knew exactly what Lyra was doing, playing the seductive card but that didn’t stop the jealousy from slithering up his spine.“I am so glad you came,” Lyra added as she reached the base of the stairs. She stopped right in front of Matthew and gave a small, practiced curtsey. Elias noticed how perfectly poised she was, every movement intentional. She was performing.Matthew reached for her hand. He lifted it to his lips, kissed it gently—and didn’t let go. His lips lingered longer than etiquette allowed, brushing against her knuckles.He glanced down at the ring Elias had given her that very morning. A single eyebrow twitched upward, but he said nothing. The message was clear though. She’s wearing your ring, but she’s still within reach.“Shall we sit for some tea?” Elias said.“Of course,” Matthew responded smoothly, without so much as a glance Elias’s way—and still without releasing Lyra’s hand.Together, they moved towar

Envy Of All The Women

“Maybe,” Matthew echoed. He gave a small nod, almost to himself. “It was quite a stunning ring. Envy of all the women. Still is.”He paused, a distant look flickering over his face. “It’s said to be of immeasurable value because of the gems—and the love of the king for the queen. But… when she was found out to be a witch, and it was believed she had charmed the king… he took the ring back. Banished her. Stripped her of her titles, her name. She was never seen again.”“Story time?” Elias’s voice cut through the room. He strolled in, the edges of his smile sharp. Lyra jumped slightly and instinctively pulled her hand out of Matthew’s hold.Matthew straightened but didn’t look the least bit ruffled. “We were just discussing history. It’s always good to know the past, don’t you think?”“Especially the parts that conveniently fit your narrative,” Elias replied dryly.“Where is the tea?” Matthew asked, turning his head slightly, his regal patience thinning.“It’s almost here,” Elias replied

Marquis Gideon Langstone

“Marquis Gideon Langstone,” Thaddeus said dryly from behind her. “Marchioness Gemma’s father. Believes his daughter was born from a diamond and farted into nobility by dragons.”Lyra snorted. “Oh, he’s the daddy.”Gideon pointed a trembling, accusing finger at Elias. “I am a father! And you—you defiled my daughter. The entire eastern court is whispering how she spends time alone with you—alone!”Elias’s nostrils flared. “I did no such thing. I told your daughter—explicitly—that I would consider courtship after my diplomatic visit to Wentworth Castle in Avenrest. That’s it. That’s all. And then… destiny intervened.”Gideon sneered. “Destiny? You mean her?” He nodded toward Lyra, who raised her hand in a mocking wave.Elias turned his body slightly toward Lyra, as if just her presence steadied him. “Yes. Her. Miss Lirae returned to me. And whether you believe in fate or not, I do. Her arrival made it clear that courting your daughter would have been a grave mistake—a political convenien

Preferably Behind A Locked Door

She hung on to him. Her body melted into his with a softness that made even Elias forget the centuries of etiquette he had been raised with. The kiss was no longer about proving a point—it had evolved into a confession. A fevered meeting of vulnerability, danger and truth.“Your Highness,”Elias groaned and broke the kiss, resting his forehead lightly against Lyra’s. His breath was still caught in his throat, but his glare snapped toward his steward. “What, Thaddeus?! Must you haunt every moment of happiness I try to steal in this damn house?”Thaddeus stood at the base of the corridor with the serenity of a monk and the sass of a long-suffering butler. “I am not one to judge, Your Highness,” he said, eyes flickering briefly to Lyra’s swollen lips and tousled hair, “but if the maids stumble upon you in this compromising position, tongues will wag. And you know how fast gossip travels in Windmere.”Elias scowled, adjusting his coat. “Are there any places left in this blasted estate wher

I'll Take All The Smoke

“I’ll take all the smoke. Light it on fire and throw me in the middle,” Matthew muttered.Philip exhaled, clearly torn. He turned to look at the stained glass again. “You do realize what you're asking of me, don’t you? If I do what you ask, if I manipulate events to keep her by your side… what happens when she regains her memory and finds out I stabbed her?”“With Elias’s dagger, Matthew. To make him take the fall.”“I just want another chance.”“And if she remembers? If she turns on you with that same fire in her eyes she had the day she threatened to expose you?”“It still works for us. If I marry her, she becomes queen and has an allegiance to protect the throne,” Matthew argued.Phillip exhaled and paced. Candles flickered in the sconces, casting long, war-like shadows of both men on the walls.“What you ask of me is a lot,” he finally said. “But if—if—I manage to do this... then every decision from that throne will be mine. Whether you approve or not. No arguments.”“Yes. I promis

You're Trying To Kill Me

They landed in a messy sprawl of limbs and tangled sheets. His mouth found her neck and she gasped.“Oh God…” she moaned, arching into him as his lips branded a trail along her collarbone.She fumbled with his buttons, tearing open the last of them.Her hands caressed the expanse of his bare chest, every inch as firm and sculpted as she'd fantasized since that absurd, embarrassing moment he’d walked in on her naked on her very first day in Terra Lucida.His abs twitched beneath her fingers, taut and hot to the touch, like he was barely holding himself back. Elias let out a shuddering breath as his lips grazed her shoulder, trailing slowly down. He pulled the thin straps of her nightdress down, kissing each newly revealed inch of skin.When his mouth finally found her breasts, he groaned—a deep, guttural sound that set her nerves on fire. Lyra rocked against him, shamelessly grinding into the hard length of him that pressed between her thighs. She gasped, her back arching as if pulled
