Eve_Palace

She is the Crown Princess. He is her bodyguard.
Falling in love was forbidden, but will they risk everything and pursue their romance?

---------------------------

Lena is the Crown Princess of the Ephemere Kingdom. Confined inside the palace walls for most of her life, the person she would often turn to is her personal protector and dedicated bodyguard, Luca. 

During her childhood years, she treated him as her best friend. Her ally. A protective, older brother who never fails to save her when she needed saving.

But as Lena grew up and blossomed into adulthood, she began developing an attraction for her bodyguard. Gradually, she started noticing him as a man.

Luca secretly loved her too, but knowing his position, he refused to entertain any romantic notions with her. Falling in love with the princess is forbidden. It was her destiny to take the throne when the time is right, and that means, being betrothed to another royalty worthy of her status.

But what if they couldn’t suppress their feelings any longer? What if something happens that would throw them both in a situation where they could pretend that ranks and royalty didn’t exist? Would they pursue their romance? Or would Lena end up upholding her royal duties in the end?

The Princess's Bodyguard

Was it the beer? No. Luca didn't seem drunk at all. But what do I know? I had never seen him drunk before.

But with the way he was kissing me, it seemed like his desire had been doubled. Or tripled. For some reason, it reminded me of our very first kiss, in that dark corridor in the palace after we both escaped from the party.

But he wasn't reigning in his passion like that time.

His hands cupped my jaw, holding my face just where he wanted it as his soft lips and tongue roughly ravaged mine. The room was completely dark, and it only made me more aware of his heavy grunts and low moans as he pushed me backward until I felt the wall against my back.
