Six months later:

---------------------------------------

.

.

.

The day after tommorow ,Jordan will be declared as the crown prince and the future Emperor of their dynasty. Finally Jordan is going to get the seal of a crown Prince.

Evelina killed the ist Prince already. It wasn't that much difficult. Firstly they reveled the ist Empress who try to kill Jordan with the 5th regent at first. The Emperor ordered to capture her and lock her in her pavilion for some days until they finished the arrangement of sending her back to her own homeland.

After that Evelina and Andreas killed the ist Prince along with Federico. They plotted as if the Prince died because of over drinking.No one doubted them as the killer. The ist Empress has been abdicated and sent back to her homeland afterwards.

The palace is decorated for tommorow's ceremony. It's been 13th days of ist Prince's death. So the Emperor must appoint Prince Jordan on the vacant position of Ist Prince within two days.

Evelina got so tired as she had to lead all the arrangement for the ceremony. Looking after this huge decoration is really hard. So today she didn't went to the royal training field to train Jordan. She let Andreas and Federico to manage it on their own.

Now they have to learn handling everything without her. She'll be leaving the Palace sooner.

Evelina decided to take a nap as all the arrangements has been done. So she returned back to the Prince Manor and directly went to the chember . She lie on the bed and gradually fall in a deep sleep.

.

.

.

After some hours....

Jordan also returned back as he completed today's practice session. He's also tired.

Jordan stepped inside his chember and found Evelina sleeping so deeply.

"So , my Eve is sleeping...." Jordan smile then drank a glass of water.

Suddenly the quilt fell down the floor from Evelina's body.

" Oh....she can't even sleep properly..." Jordan picked up the quilt and walked towards the bed to cover her again with it.

He was about to cover Evelina with the quilt but his eyes stuck on her exposed waist.

Evelina was sleeping so carelessly that her clothes slided from her waist and revealed her soft-smooth skin.

" Oh ..her clothes...." Jordan threw the quilt in one side and decided to fix Evelina's clothes properly.

But instead of covering her waist , he pulled up her clothes more.

" Oh gosh.....what I'm doing. She'll be angry. I can't do this....no no .....I won't ...I won't...." He backwarded some steps leaving Evelina in that state.

"No... Jordan... please control yourself. If she wake up....she will be angry at you..." Jordan tried to leave the chember.

He's sweating so much while struggling with himself....but after a long fight , he couldn't leave the chember. Or even came closer to Evelina's belly as if he has been pulled by any magnetic force...

Jordan lowered his head towards Evelina's waist.

His eyes are shining so brightly. He carefully touched her waist and gently kissed there.

" Okay...now I need to go...or else she'll wake up surely...." Jordan thought and tried to move his face but he couldn't.

After using all his strength, he only could drag his face towards Evelina's waist. So he stopped fighting against his own emotions.

He again started kissing on her waist rubbing his face there recklessly... The spotless skin got some light red mark as Jordan started sucking or licking around her naval.

Evelina felt a pair of warm lips touching her waist or shallowing her continuously. So she woke up from her deep sleeping as Jordan's kisses turned more engrossing.

"Jordan ...what the heck you're doing... please behave yourself." Evelina quickly pushed him aside the bed.

" I'm sorry...but please don't stop me today..... I'm dying.... you've made me waited for a long time...." Jordan again leaned over her and pressed her between his long arms.

" Jordan....get back to your senses....." Evelina screamed as he tired to put off her clothes.

" Just once.... I won't ask for again. Let's just do it today..... I promised, I won't touch you ever again....." Jordan ripped off her clothes.

" No.....I need more time..... please try to understand." Evelina got nervous.

" No.... you're just giving excuses. I'm capable of everything what a grown man can do.... Or even I'm taller and stronger than you." Jordan put off his own clothes while talking...

" Jordan please.... I'm requesting. Don't you listen to my every words...." Evelina become more tensed...so she hugged Jordan to calm him down.

Jordan got relaxed a little bit after getting a warm hug from Evelina. But he didn't stay in her hug longer as there's a chance of loosing his self-control. He raised his head and looked at Evelina.

Jordan could detect the nervousness spreading on Evelina's face.

He kissed on her forehead and said with an upset voice,

" Are you really afraid of me that much.....but believe me I won't hurt you... You've never gave me a single chance all these months. Please trust me.... Allow me....." Jordan looked at her eyes with a hope....

" I'm sorry, my Prince....just give me a little more time. I need more time to accept you in this way..... please.... don't cross your limit. I promised, I'll build up our relationship after some days....just have a little patience , dear." Evelina requested.

Jordan stood up from the bed and put on his clothes again.

" Then I'll wait for some days more... Then you can't refuse me..." Jordan threw Evelina's clothes towards the bed.

Evelina quickly wrapped herself with those clothes and took a breath of relief. Then she looked at Jordan... he's lying on the bed turning his face on the opposite direction.

" My Prince....are you angry at me...?" Evelina said with a smile and pulled him closer .

"How can I ever be angry at you!! Let me just sleep now..... don't disturb me..." Jordan said annoyingly without looking at her.

" That means you're angry at me...." Evelina pulled him on her arms and wrapped him.

Jordan said nothing and silently buried his face in between her neck and collarbone. He didn't even looked at Evelina's face.

" Okay....then...who wants a black-reven horse ??" Evelina smiled wickedly.

" A black horse....WOW!!" Jordan looked at Evelina with an excitement.

" Want it.....I can give you ...!!"

" Yeah....I love to have it... please give me that.. " Jordan's mood changed totally. He started smiling.

" Okay... I'll gift it to you tomorrow... happy."

" Hmm..."

" Now sleep...you must be tired...." Evelina hugged him more tightly.

" No .. I'm not that much tired. They trained me less today." Jordan smiled and leaned his face with Evelina's chest.

He tried to sleep struggling with his boundless thoughts or desires. But Evelina's scent constantly kept arousing his emotions disturbing his sleep.

In the next morning

Evelina is sitting and talking with Andreas in the Royal Training Field.

They're observing Jordan's sword fighting with Federico from a distance.

"We've done what we wanted. Look at the Prince....He mastered everything that is essential for an ideal prince within a short period. I'm proud of him."Andreas said with a glorious smile.

"Yeah.... My work here is totally completed. Finally our Prince is going to be the Crown Prince... I'll leave for the South after a couple of weeks."Evelina said visualizing a relief on her face.

"What the hell are you saying. You'll go....How could you do that!!"Andreas got a shocked.

"The 2nd Empress will help me in this matter."Evelina said looking at the central field where Jordan is practicing.

"No....I didn't mean that. I'm talking about our Prince. You can't break his heart. Have you ever loved him. He's totally influenced by you and you're just playing with him."Andreas asked frowningly.

"What do you mean. Of course I love Jordan more than my life. I've killed the ist Prince though I'm feeling so guilty. And all these sacrifices I've given for him only. But my love for him is different....you can't understand it. It's more like an affection." Evelina shouted.

"Then why you want to leave?"Andreas arged .

"Because I can't ignore Samuel. I can't live without him. I spent most of the time of my life with him. He's like unforgettable."Evelina's eyes filled with pain.

"You will forget him I'm giving assurance. I've seen you when you stay with Prince Jordan, you forget everything. You can't leave him like this..."Andreas said.

"Jordan, attack him from the middle. Raise your sword!!....Good fencing...." Evelina said loudly to Jordan ignoring Andreas.

"Evelina!!! Are you listening."Andreas said.

"Stop these nonsense... Have you seen Jordan. He's getting skilled in everything." Evelina said.

"Isn't it obvious.... He's a good student after all."Andreas said.

"General!! My Princess!!"a soldier entered the training field and bowed to them.

"What brings you here?"Evelina asked the soldier.

"General Samuel sent you a letter from the south."the solder said.

"What!! Give it to me." Evelina come forward to take the letter aggressively with excitement.

But Andreas snatched it from her hand.

"I guess you're not permitted to receive it."Andreas said .

"You!! I don't need any permission from anyone specially from you ..... Give it to me, you bustard...."Evelina shouted.

"Sorry my Princess,I can't."Andreas smiled mockingly.

"I've written him so many letters but he haven't replied and now finally I got the reply. Please give it to me. You're my friend .... right?"Evelina begged him

"Oh... it's not a reply. You couldn't send him any letter. I've blocked every letter sent from you. And all the letters he sent you too...."Andreas said turning his smile into a devilish one.

"You're so cruel ....give me that!!"Evelina ran to catch him.

But Andreas started ran faster than her. They kept running through out the whole field. Guards became shocked seeing two of them running.

"Hay....stop!! Jordan shouted.

Evelina and Andreas stop running and stood in front of Jordan like an obedient child.

"Why are you two running like this?" Jordan laughed at them.

"Jordan!!! Please order him to give me the letter." Evelina said while breathing faster.

"But Prince...this isn't important for her. This is my latter." Andreas defend himself.

"NO IT'S MY LATTER."Evelina screamed.

"Okay...but you two take a breath first then we'll talk about it."Jordan tried to calm them down.

But Andreas suddenly took out the paper from the letter and put it into his mouth.

"You!! How could you eat papers, you jerk..."Evelina shouted.

"I'm going back.... I won't talk with you anymore."Evelina left the field with angry face.

Andreas laughed.

"My Prince, it wasn't important. Just ignore her. Let's finish your practice. It's almost dark."Andreas said looking at the sky.

They practice a little more.

Then everyone left for their own residence.

Prince's Manor

---------------------------

Evelina is standing at the balcony and watching the activities occuring on the ground floor and garden area. Suddenly Jordan entered the chamber and wrapped her waist from the back.

"Are you still angry, my wife?"Jordan leaned his face on her shoulder.

"No... I'm not...forget it."Evelina kept looking on the ground floor from the corridor.

The 2nd Empress is welcoming and greeting some beautiful noble ladies on the ground floor.

"Hay... what's going on there?"Jordan asked looking below.

"They're the most beautiful woman from our every state. Empress choose these 13 women for you."evelina replied.

"Holy shit.....what will I do with that much women."Jordan laughed.

"Can you see the 4 woman standing on the front row..... They'll become your consorts and the rest of them will be your concubines. They are just receiving their ranks today."Evelina explained everything.

"What are you saying!!" Jordan laughed loudly without understanding.

All the noble ladies and the Empress heard their laughing and looked towards them from the ground floor.

All the women excitedly looked at Jordan who is standing on the balcony with evelina. A chaos and laugher rolled among them after seeing Jordan for the first time. A huge excitement vibrated across all the ladies.He's looking handsome. Those woman stepped forward to see him clearly . They started talking to each other and smile.

Jordan hurriedly hide himself behind Evelina to avoid their gaze. Their eagerness made him feel uncomfortable.

Evelina dragged him inside seeing his irritation...

"One of them will be your future Empress. You should at least greet them properly."Evelina said while stroking her fingers across Jordan's hair.

"Hah.... you're my legally wedded wife. You'll be my Empress. Why should I need other woman?"Jordan asked and sat on the bed

"You'll understand that very soon. I'll explain it later...now let's have a dinner." Evelina ignore his question.

"Oh...no. I'm so tired. I don't even have the strength to eat anything. Just wanna sleep. You three trained me too much today."Jordan said.

"You always say that...come on...at least have some date juice."Evelina handed over him a glass.

Jordan drank the juce.

"Won't you eat anything?"Jordan asked evelina.

"I'm not in the mood of eating... I'll eat later. Let's just sleep."Evelina lay beside Jordan.

Jordan and Evelina laying on the bed keeping some distance between them.

"Hay .....Evelina!!" Jordan said.

"Hmm..."

"Can I get a little closer to you?"

"Of course, you can. Why you're asking like this..." Evelina smiled.

Jordan move towards Evelina.

"Because I want to behave politely from now on.... though I always behave polite... But I want to be more careful. I want you to feel safe around me.

So...can I touch you while sleeping?" Jordan asked again.

"You know what, you always do that after falling asleep."Evelina said smile.

"Really!!"Jordan took at her.

Then Evelina move towards Jordan and buried her head into Jordan's arms . She can feel the warmth emitting from his body that make her comfortable. She just want to forget every thing what she did these last few days. Jordan's presence always refresh her heart. He's innocent and carefree. He doesn't know what Evelina did just to make him the crown Prince...

"What happen Eve... you're looking sad nowadays...."Jordan asked.

But Evelina didn't answer as she fell asleep. Jordan also fall asleep gradually looking at her.... Tomorrow will be a grand day for him.
