Victors write history

"Well, have I become your wife now?" Evangeline asked, as she lay on my shoulder.

"Absolutely," I replied without hesitation.

"So, if I want to leave the palace now, you won't let me?"

Evangeline's tone was teasing, clearly mocking me. That was a good thing because it meant she was content and happy with this night we shared.

"No, I wouldn't allow it," I said, playing along with her game.

After my words, she rubbed her bare body against mine and let out a soft giggle. The strawberry scent emanating from her pink hair filled the early hours of the morning with a pleasant warmth. After chatting with Evangeline for a while longer, we both took some time to sleep, and then our bodies met again during our morning bath.

As Evangeline cast shy glance at me, the servants changed the bloodstained sheets. Soon after, we went about our separate duties.
