She jerked her head into a hesitant nod and waited, her hand clutched to her clothes. He placed a kiss on her shoulder and it left a sore taste in his mouth.
King Lucien turned her around to face him, she was doing her best to hide it but the fear in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
His eyes fluttered to her face and he saw Danika.
He blinked hard and looked again. But, it was Kamara. Why will he think about Danika at such time like this?
Putting the thoughts away, he dreaded what will come next, but it did not stop him from trying to get it done. The sooner, the better.
He lowered his head and took her lips with his. Swallowing her whimper, he coaxed her lips with his, while his hand hanged loosely on her shoulder.
Kamara squeezed her eyes shut and tried not to let her uncertainty show. Her hands felt useless by her side, so she placed them on his clothed shoulder.
