Taking it slowly

Jerome goneto his room, where he sat down with a glass of drink in his hand, in the armchair adorned with huge antlers to calmly think about his options.

"Ariana's sacred belief that I love a man … what a joke… those damned rumors…"

He took a big sip of the bitter alcohol, then as he watched the honey-colored nectar a devilish plan came to him.

"After all… with a gay ruler whose companion is a talented politician… it is not surprising if he hides his wife from political marriage from the world… since he doesn't even want to see her… if the aristocrats never meet her, they can't harm her…"

He clearly saw in front of him as he locked the weak bird in a golden cage.

"I will carry her in the palm of my hand… she will love me… and once… if I have removed all obstacles to our happiness, she will give birth to our child… and we will live happily…"

It was also clear to Jerome, that Jürgen's beauty fascinated both men and women… and the man was aware of that. Since Jürgen always tried in the most natural way possible to catch the interest the future king, only Jerome noticed…

"You either feel something for me… or you just want power… it doesn't matter… it's sure, it will be easy to get you involved in the play…"

At the winter greeting ball, Jerome gave the punch of grace to the nobles, as he kissed Jürgen's hand and performed the opening dance with him.

Jürgen was happy, for in this way the Crown Prince and him formally entered into a relationship, of which only he had known so far.

For the next tight one year, Jerome played a believer in pure love, and as Jürgen learned the great ruler ingredient… he believed that Jerome was such a good man, that his love for him was so pure… and although in reality he did not reciprocate feelings, he respected him for his knowledge, his deeds, his humanity.

The nobles were divided into two groups. Some of them were somehow in Jürgen's hand, thanks to the man's background… the other half followed the king and Jerome so blindly that they did not question any of their actions. One way or another, no one dared to speak out against the new order.

Thus, at the time of the coronation, the name of the queen arose only until it was declared that the church recognized and considered the marriage valid, but on the throne Jürgen was already sitting next to the new king.

Jürgen got everything he wanted… money, power… respect, and there was no question for him that Ariana's presence was only temporary, as he knew exactly that, after the young queen's legacy had a lot of bloodthirsty hyena brushing their teeth, and the moment she gave birth to a child… her existence becomes unnecessary… and for him there was no problem extinguishing the life of a weak woman.

Immediately after the coronation, Jerome left the ball, faking headache, and headed for his bedroom, where the doctor was already waiting.

"Well?"

He dropped the heavy robe.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is still untouched and her fertile days have just passed, so today we started the herbal cure."

Reported the doctor.

"When will it take effect?"

„In two weeks, as she can no longer get pregnant this month and her next fertile day will be in 3 weeks… until we stop the cure the queen will not be able to get pregnant. "

"And you sure , she won't get suspicion? No side effects? "

"You don't have to worry Majesty, her cycle will come every month… because we have poured the medicine into the water supply system of her palace, it will enter her body without her knowledge."

"All right. You can leave. "

She left the room and Jerome excitedly took a hot bath.

"At last… the day has come… when I can hold you in my arms."

Walking down the stairs of the secret tunnel, he saw in front of him, smiling, talking to the girl over a glass of wine… as they cuddled… as she fell asleep in his arms…

"I know everything about her… I can't fail getting her love… we talk a little bit, she realizes how much we have in common… maybe we drink a glass of her favorite wine… maybe she even allows me to hug her… maybe I sleep next to her… maybe we kiss… no! I can't hurry! We will move pretty slowly… and when I know for sure that she is madly in love with me… our love will be fulfilled! "

He reached the girl's room with a smile on his face. He sighed in front of her door, trying to gather his thoughts… to show his best form in front of his love… and opened.
