******

Amber ran to her room, wanting to ignore Madeleines malicious attitude- she couldn’t help but wonder if they were lies. When her mother moved away once she reached 18, she often spoke about people in Cordonia- one being the Beaumont’s but the other being Jackson, now known as Jackson Walker- Drakes father.

“Do you miss Cordonia?”

“I miss our family especially Barthelemy. I was also close to a handsome man called Jackson- he was the main kings guard. He was very nice- supportive with anyone, a family man. I heard that he tragically died leaving behind his wife and two children. Amber. I will never stop you from seeing your family. I know the Beaumont’s come here, but if you ever want to go back- that is your choice.”

“No thank you. If the other nobles are like Bertrand, my ass is staying right here in New York.”

Picking up the landline in her room, she dialled the number that she had memorised over the years.

“Hello?”

“Amber! How are you?”

“I need to come home soon. I need answers about my life. Answers about my father.”

“Why?”

“Because I think I’ve slept my brother. Please. I’ll let you know when I’m returning.”

Hanging up she laid back in bed, her mind running overtime. Hearing the knocking at the door- the familiar voices, she remained silent. Ignoring them, she felt rude- but right now she just wanted to be on her own.

Waking up the next morning Amber wanted to believe that last night was just some awful nightmare - seeing the sunshine through the window, she decided to make herself a cup of coffee and sit on the balcony. Opening the doors, she felt that cool Lythikos air. Sparking up the cigarette, she took a long drag.

“Morning. So you’re a social smoker too?”

“Jesus Drake! What are you doing up? Yes I am, when the occasion calls for it - just don’t tell Bertrand.”

“Well that’s what people tend to do in the morning- get up. Hmm, I can’t promise that I won’t tell him.” Turning around to finally face him, she admired his body. Noticing her gawking, and the ash falling off her cig in slow motion- he needed to gain her attention.

“Amber! You’re going to inform Bertrand that you smoke yourself if you burn yourself.”

Shit. Standing up, he walked over to the edge of his balcony.

“Are you okay? We all came up to see you, but you must have been asleep.”

“I’m fine.” Providing him with a half hearted smile, she looked down towards the floor not wanting to elaborate the conversation. “Amber there’s something you should know.”

“Drake, I already know.”

“I don’t think you do. I’m coming over to your room.”

“I’m fine. I don’t want to talk about it or Madeleine. Just go and put some clothes on you’re making me feel cold.” Drake walked back into his room, she was feeling relieved but also slightly disappointed. Before she knew it, he was climbing over the ledge.

“Drake! You’re going to break your neck!”

“Are you going to let me in if I knock on your door?”

“No.”

“Well then, I guess I’m risking breaking my neck.” Amber stood up wondering if he was bluffing, her heart was jumping out of her chest. What would the news headlines be?

Secret love child has affair with her half brother, then is the reasoning behind his sudden death.

Winking at her as he landed on her balcony, she felt as if she could breathe again.

“See. No broken neck. But if I did break it it would be your fault.”

“Oh really? I told you that I didn’t want to talk.”

“Stop being stubborn. Madeleine lied. Your father isn’t who you think he is, but he isn’t my father.”

“How do you know that?”

“Your Uncle Barthelemy is your father. Maxwell hasn’t told Bertrand yet.”

“What? I need to go.”

“Maxwell isn’t here, if that’s where you was going. He’s gone back to Ramsford.”

“Fuck.”

“I’m so sorry. Barthelemy should have been honest with everyone.”

“That’s not the problem....” Drake looked at her puzzled. “If Bertrand and Maxwell suddenly die, Ramsford is mine. Oh god. I can’t be noble. I can’t be a Duchess.” Drake burst out laughing, she reminded him so much of him.

“It’s not funny Drake!”

“Sorry but it is. Maxwell is like an alley cat- he has a hundred lives, I wouldn’t worry too much. Besides you’d be the most beautiful Duchess in Cordonia.” Shit, I want him. Now that he’s told me the truth. We’re not related. Phew! Stop gawking at him Amber.

“I think Olivia would disagree. At least my title would be higher than miss broken nose barbie.”

“Olivia is going to be Queen, she won’t care about the Duchess status any longer. You need to get ready, we’re all due out on the ice in an hour.”

“Great.” She said with a lack of enthusiasm.

“What’s up can’t you skate?”

“Babe, I’d skate circles around you. I’m like a professional figure skater. Don’t believe me you’ll have to come and watch.”

“Any other talents you’d like to confess?”

“Plenty. Apart from showering.”

“Well it’s not hard to have a shower.”

“But I may need some help scrubbing my back.”

“You’ll have to ask someone else. You told me to get dressed remember.”

“That’s a shame. See ya around Drake.” Walking into the bathroom, she purposely left the door open. Drake gulped as he saw her naked, natural instinct led him to follow her.

“Is the water warm enough?”

“Not quite. I thought you was going.”

“I thought you needed help, scrubbing your back.”

“I do. But I think you’re slightly overdressed Mr Walker.” Stepping into the shower, the water was cascading down Ambers body. Feeling his eyes watching her, she wondered what he was thinking. Washing her hair, her eyes closed as she rinsed off the shampoo, before rubbing the shower gel over her body in a seductive manner. Opening her eyes, she turned to see Drake slip off his clothes, and boxers before joining her. Taking the shower gel, he rubbed it in to her back- feeling his erection against her she sighed. Turning to face him, the droplets that did nothing but accentuate his strong frame, glistened down his arms and trickle down his chest. Placing her hands around his neck, she kissed him on the lips. It started as an innocent gentle kiss, before becoming passionate. Their lips melted into one- his tongue slid across her bottom lip, her mouth opened slightly- giving him permission to enter it into her mouth. Their tongues battled against each other as if their life depended on it. His arms gripped around her waist tighter, as he pressed her against the wall. Feeling his hard cock in between her parted legs, she knew she couldn’t hold off any longer. Drake placed kisses along every inch of her body, before sucking and licking one nipple, whilst his other hand squeezed her bottom. “Oh Drake...” hearing her moan his name, he lightly traced her entrance with his fingers before inserting them. His fingers moved rhythmically inside her whilst his thumb circled her clit. Increasing his speed as he pumped her, she couldn’t contain the pleasure. “Enjoying that baby?” “Yes, but it’s your turn now.” Before he knew it, Amber removed his fingers from her, bending down she grabbed his dick and guided it towards her mouth. A moan escaped his lips immediately, leaning himself against the wall, he closed his eyes. “Amber, you.... you’re amazing baby.” Fluttering her eyelashes, she traced her tongue along his long length. Her lips formed a tight grip around the tip of him, taking him deeper with each movement. Drake tangled his calloused hands in her hair, before encouraging her to stop. “I want you Amber, you’re so beautiful.” “I’m all yours handsome.” Guiding his cock towards her entrance; he kissed her. “Turn around, and bend over.” Amber did as he said, before thrusting into her in one movement. Feeling her walls tighten against him, he loved feeling her. Placing his palms flat against the shower wall for extra support, he increased his speed, he loved their instant connection- eventually spilling his hot seed into her. Removing his penis- Amber stood up, turning to face him. They both smiled at each other, holding each other whilst their eyes locked. Sharing one last kiss, they both got out of the shower. Drake towel dried Amber.

“You’re a bad influence, you know that Beaumont?”

“It’s Smith- Beaumont.” She winked at him whilst smirking.

“Whatever, beautiful. Come on, you’ve delayed us enough.”

“Ditto!” Placing a kiss on his cheek, Drake had never felt more happy than this moment in time.

*****

Drake arrived at the frozen lake, usually he wasn’t interested in this activity when they came to Lythikos- however he couldn’t prevent looking at Amber skating. She wasn’t lying when she said she could skate.

“Pick ya jaw up Walker.”

“She told me she could skate, I thought she was lying. She’s really good.”

“Is this the first time in Lythikos that you may actually join in? I mean you’re smiling. I don’t think that any of us have seen you smile this much.” Liam joined in winding the situation up.

“I smile.”

“Barely. Why don’t you go to her for some lessons?”

“No it’s fine. I’m enjoying watching someone outshine Olivia. Besides I’ve spent time with her today.”

“When?” Leo and Liam both asked in unison.

“Just before we came here. I jumped onto her balcony. We talked....”

“And.....” Leo was eager for some new court gossip.

“We had a shower.”

“You mean you had sex in the shower. Jesus Drake. What is this girl doing to you? You’re like a whole new man.”

“Oh this is interesting.”

“What do you want?” The men all snapped at Madeleine. Kiara shortly following behind.

“Both commoners sleeping together, sounds about right. I wonder what would happen if this news was to leak? How could you do that to Kiki, Drake?” Leo noticed Kiara’s face drop, he could see the heartache she was going through. He knew Drake had been honest with her, not leading her on in any way, but Madeleine wasn’t helping the situation.

“How’s the nose? Because I’ll gladly finish Ambers job off!” Leo snapped at his ex fiancée, he hated her with a passion.

“Oh darling. You love me really. You did choose me after all, before you decided to go awol. If your brother had any sense he would pick me too.”

“Heh you wish Countess. I’m going to join Olivia and Amber. You coming Li? Drake?”

They all gathered on the lake, Olivia was annoyed with Amber- secretly wishing she could skate like she did.

“So you weren’t lying then.” Drake said, as he skated up towards her- placing his arms around her waist.

“Why would I lie about that? What is she doing here?”

“Just ignore her. She’s already started. She overheard me talking to Liam and Leo. They all know we’ve slept together. I’m so sorry.”

“I don’t want to know how she responded. She’s horrible. I hate her. Leo had a lucky escape.”

“That he did. I wanted to ask you before, what did Olivia leave us for a surprise?” Smirking at him, she knew his eyes would widen.

“How about you come to my room when we get back to the palace later? And you’ll see. We can Netflix and chill.” Drake laughed, knowing that he was the one who explained to her what that phrase meant. Feeling his cock get harder thinking about it, he couldn’t wait to leave Lythikos.

“It’s a date! I’ll bring whiskey too. Amber, I... I’m starting to fa....”

“Bonjour! Lady Amber I’m impressed with your skating skills. Fantastique.”

“Thank you Lady Kiara.. I can teach you if you’d like?” Drake shot her a look, Amber responded by shrugging her shoulders.

“Merci, but I don’t think I’d be able to do it. If Lady Hana Lee had of joined the social season you’d both be in competition.”

“Maybe. Myself and my best friend Riley always go skating back home. Daniel our other friend always falls over. It’s funny. But the offers still there Lady Kiara. Drake, I’ll see you later. I’m going to talk to princes.” Don’t you dare fucking leave me Amber! Walking away, she laughed at Drake feeling awkward.

“How many times have you slept with her? What does she have that I don’t?”

“For a start she doesn’t constantly speak in a different language all the time. We’ve slept together more than once Kiara, not that it’s any of your business. You need to move on. I’m not interested, I’ve always been honest with you.”

“When she goes back to New York, Maybe you could think about us?” Drake shook his head. “Goodbye Kiara, I’ll see you back at the palace.”

*****

Everyone arrived back at the palace, they were all exhausted after ice skating and skiing. Much to Ambers disappointment, an impromptu ball had been arranged by King Constantine before his favourite event took place the following morning- The Royal regatta.

Drake knocked on Ambers door an hour before the ball was due to take place.

“Hey. You look handsome in your suit.”

“Why aren’t you dressed? I’m surprised Maxwell hasn’t dragged you down to the boutique yet.”

“I’ve got plenty of dresses. He’s still at Ramsford with Bertrand anyway. I want to show you something. Come in.” Drake walked in as Amber locked the door, she asked him to sit on the bed whilst she got dressed in the bathroom.

“Drake Walker? Are you ready?”

“Ready for what? Whatever you’ll wear you’ll look gorgeous.”

“Close your eyes.” Drake did as she asked, hearing her near him- he was intrigued as to why she asked him to do it.

“Open them.”

“Holy shit!” Amber was wearing a silky baby doll lingerie, the bralette showing off her assets- whilst the loose fitting skirt provided easy access for roaming hands.

“What do you think? Liv is one kinky bitch isn’t she?”

“You are going to have to take that off, because if not we aren’t going to make it to the ball.”

“Well we have just under an hour. I’m yours if you want me.”

“You’re killing me here Amber! I can’t resist you.”

“Don’t then. What did you want to say before Kiara interrupted us by the way?”

“I’m starting to fall for you. And you wearing this... god. I’m starting to like Olivia. Come here.” Amber straddled him, feeling his erection rub against her.

“Shall I put Netflix on?” She winked at him. “I’m starting to fall for you too.”

After sleeping with each other again, they both quickly got dressed for the ball. “Would you like to be announced into the ballroom together? Fuck what anyone thinks.”

“I’d love to.” Linking arms, they both walked towards the ballroom. God I’m one lucky bastard having her in my arms.

Sir Drake Walker, Lady Amber Smith-Beaumont

*****

Bastien stood in the corner, people watching. Noticing Drake and Amber together, his usual stern expression changed into a soft smile. Jackson always spoke fondly of Ambers mom to him, and Bastien knew that Jackson would approve of the blossoming romance between the two of them. He was knocked out of his people watching trance, when another guard tapped him on the shoulder.

“Sorry to disturb you, but someone is here demanding to see you and Lady Amber. “

“Is it important? Have you done a security check on this person?”

“No. They said you know of them.”

“Okay, take my place.” Bastien walked out of the ballroom, noticing the man he shook his head smiling.

“What are you doing here?”

“Bast, long time no see. I’m here on business. I need to see Amber Smith- Beaumont.”

*****

Drake left Amber, to go and talk to the men. Kissing her on the cheek, she blushed. “Sneak into my room later, bring that sexy underwear.” “Of course Sir Walker. Only for your eyes.”

Amber spoke to Olivia, before being interrupted by the three witches.

“Well well well, if it isn’t the court whore!” Madeleine snapped, Olivia jumped- becoming panic stricken, paranoid that Maddy was referring to her.

“What do you want? I’ll accept all of your insults Countess. So do carry on. When the sharpest words wanna cut me down. I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out. I am brave, I am bruised. I am who I'm meant to be, this is me. I’m not scared to be seen, I make no apologies. This is me.”

“You think you’re so clever don’t you amber. We don’t want you here. None of us. You’ll soon break down. You need to hide away. Runaway. You don’t belong here. You’re just a freak. A love child.”

“Technically I do belong here! I’m a Beaumont. I’ll be heir to Ramsford if anything happens to my brothers.”

“You’re a slut, like your mother was!” Madeleine screamed, gaining attention from all the guests.

“Another round of bullets hits my skin. Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in. My mother may have been a ‘slut’, but you don’t know her. Or my father for that matter. You do know they married each other right? Oh no silly me, you didn’t know that gossip did you Maddy?”

“Madeleine leave her alone now!”

“Suddenly the Duchess pipes up, shall we spill your little secret whilst we are at it? You’re both sluts. Neither of you will be queen.” Olivia’s heart began to race ten to the dozen.

“Madeleine enough!” Regina interrupted the women, providing sorrow in her eyes towards Amber and Olivia.

“You are making a scene. Carry on and I will escort you out!”

“Don’t worry your Majesty. I’m leaving anyway. Come on girls.” Amber turned to face Liv, smirking. “High five to my fellow ‘slut’ Olivia.”

“Shut up! She’s just jealous Amber, ignore her.”

“Lady Amber, May I have a word in private please?” Bastien escorted Amber out of the ballroom. Liam, Leo and Drake followed- wondering what was happening.

“Amber, it’s so nice to finally meet you. You are a very hard woman to find.”

“Who are you?”

“I am a private detective. A friend of yours from New York is very concerned about your whereabouts. As far as I can see, you are doing just fine and this has been a waste a time.”

“Who is this friend? What is your name?” Assuming it was Daniel who was concerned about her- she felt guilty not communicating with him before throwing her SIM card away. Beginning to panic, Bastien placed a comforting arm on her shoulder- providing reassurance that she was safe.

“Brett is worried about you. My name is Nazario. Damien Nazario.” Amber began to panic with the mention of his name. Damien noticed fear form in her eyes, she had forgotten all about Brett whilst she was with Drake- now she was wondering if she was in danger.

“Amber. I knew he was full of bullshit when he hired me. I did my research using your surname, and it led me here. Let’s call this a vacation rather than work.”

“He’s going to come after me isn’t he?”

“Not if I can help it. I’ll say I couldn’t find you. I don’t care about the pay packet. I spoke to your friends Daniel and Riley. They confirmed my suspicions about him. From what I’ve heard, he’s an abuser. My dear old friend Bast says you are safe here, you have got family and friends here.”

“As well as enemies. Are Daniel and Riley okay? He hasn’t hurt them has he?”

“No. Riley was very helpful. She is a wonderful young lady. A true friend. She said if he touched her she would and I quote ‘knock him out’. They are worried about you too, maybe give them a call. Riley explained to me how she would travel the world looking for you.”

“Is everything okay?” Liam finally spoke after the men watched the interaction from a distance.

“Ah Prince Liam, it’s so nice to see you again. Not that you knew I was following you in New York.” Damien said, before laughing with Bastien. “When Leo abdicated, the two of you visited the states and refused for Bastien to accompany you, he contacted me to follow the two of you.”

“So you were the mysterious person following us around. I guess it was father who did this to us, and you wonder why I abdicated Li.”

“Yes, the apparent goody two shoes prince had your bad influence rubbed on to him Leo.” Damien smirked.

“What do you mean? He was with me the whole time?”

“That’s what you think. He stayed in New York for a few days, staying in a hotel, sneaking out on dates with a commoner. They even went to the Statue of Liberty late at night. I knew the two of you could never be together Liam, but I could see you cared for each other. The way you both looked at each other, you could have been more secretive if you ask me.”

“Woah Li, you sly dog. What was her name?” Liam remained silent thinking about the one who got away. Ever since he was younger, he knew he had to marry someone with some nobility. But his time in New York, he had fallen in love with the stranger. Leaving her made his heart sink, deep down he did love Olivia too. Once the contact with the stranger abruptly stopped, he had grown to the fact that Olivia would be his Queen. Keeping to the promises- the Million Dreams, that he had originally made with the Duchess.

“Can I borrow someone’s phone please? To ring my friends.” Amber interrupted, Drake held onto to waist and offered her his phone.

“Do you even know their numbers?”

“Yes, they are my best friends. My only friends.” Drake smiled as she dialled the first number. Amber couldn’t hear properly due to the bad line- putting it on loud speaker, she hoped that they would answer.

“Hello?”

“Hey babe.”

“Amber! Where the hell are you? Brett is looking for you! He’s hired a private detective, I saw him at Liberty the other day, with a blonde in his arms. I was ready to kill him....”

“Brooks calm down. I don’t care about him. I split up with him the other day.”

“You did what? Well why the hell has he hired a private detective?”

“Riley, I honestly don’t know?” Brooks, Riley. It’s her, she’s friends with Amber. Shit.

Riley was covering for her friends Daniel and Amber at work. Amber was in hospital after suffering abuse from her boyfriend- again. Daniel had a date. He practically begged Riley to cover for him, practically crying. Agreeing to do the shift, she was grateful that the bar was quiet. Sat on the bar, scrutinising through her social media- she jumped as the doors open. The man with the piercing blue eyes walked over towards her, she smiled softly at him as she jumped off the bar.

“Hi, what can I get ya?” Liam couldn’t focus, his mouth was open but the words didn’t want to escape from his mouth.

“Hello? Are you okay?” Riley waved her hands in front of the stranger.

“Hello. Sorry. Could I have a scotch please?”

“Sure. Coming up.” She paused. “So you’re not from around here.”

“No. I live in a small Mediterranean country. I was visiting with my brother who has moved away. I told him I was going home, but I’ve fallen in love with the city. I’m not ready to go home just yet there’s so much more to see. I did want to visit the Statue of Liberty”

“I see. Well once you visit New York, you do fall in love with it. Unless your a New Yorker born and bred. It gets a bit tedious after a while. I can show you around if you want? Take you to see her?”

“You’d do that for me? You don’t know me.”

“My friends have ditched me. Well one has. The other one is in hospital yet again, her boyfriends an arsehole. I have no other plans. My names Riley. But at times my friends call me by my surname Brooks.”

“Nice to meet you. My names Liam. Liam Rhys.” As promised Riley called in some favours, and took him to the Statue of Liberty after she had closed up the bar.

“So what do you think?”

“Magnificent. I’ve heard that art has a meaning because of what it makes the viewer feel.....” Riley was in awe of how Liam spoke so freely. “And right now, looking at this view with you, I feel like anything is possible. Thank you for this moment, Riley. This feeling.. this means so much more to me than you could ever know.”

“Liam.....” Riley locked eyes with his, matching baby blues. Liam pulled her closer to him, tilting her chin upwards he gently kissed her on the lips.

Coming out of his trance, he noticed Amber was still on the phone to Riley. Not knowing what had got in to him, he snatched the phone out of her hand.

“Riley!”

“Who the fuck is this? Put Amber back on.”

“It’s me, Liam.”

BOOK RECS

Okay, so lots of people wanted this and so, I am compiling a list of my favourite books (both fiction and non-fiction), books that I recommend you read as soon as humanly possible. In the meantime, I’ll be pinning this post to the top of my blog (once I work out how to do that lmao) so it will be accessible for old and new followers. I’m going to order this list thematically, I think, just to keep everything tidy and orderly. Of course, a lot of this list will consist of historical fiction and historical non-fiction because that’s what I read primarily and thus, that’s where my bias is, but I promise to try and spice it up just a little bit.

Decenas de miles de personas asistieron hoy a una vigilia en el centro de Manchester (Reino Unido) en homenaje a las víctimas del atentado suicida cometido anoche a la salida de un concierto lleno de jóvenes, que causó 22 muertos -algunos menores- y 59 heridos.

Durante el acto, organizado delante del Ayuntamiento, varios políticos locales y el jefe de la Policía, Ian Hopkins, condenaron el ataque perpetrado en el estadio Manchester Arena, que reivindicó el grupo yihadista Estado Islámico (EI), y destacaron la fortaleza de la gente de esta ciudad del norte de Inglaterra.

Hopkins, que dirige la investigación sobre el suceso, fue muy aplaudido cuando agradeció su labor a los servicios de emergencia y también “a los ciudadanos de pie” de esta ciudad del norte de Inglaterra, que acogieron en sus casas a las personas extraviadas o que buscaban a sus seres queridos.

“Los residentes del área metropolitana de Manchester han demostrado al mundo su compasión, cómo nos cuidamos los unos a los otros y cómo nos preocupamos por aquellos que lo necesitan”, afirmó.

El lord Mayor -un cargo político municipal-, Eddy Newman, dijo a su vez que los ciudadanos “recordarán a las víctimas para siempre y desafiarán a los terroristas al trabajar juntos para crear una comunidad diversa y cohesionada”.

Asistieron al evento, celebrado entre fuertes medidas de seguridad, el recién elegido alcalde del área metropolitana de Manchester, Andy Burnham, la ministra británica del Interior, Amber Rudd y el líder del Partido Laborista, Jeremy Corbyn.

La primera ministra, Theresa May, visitó por su parte de forma privada un hospital donde son atendidas algunas de las víctimas del ataque, entre ellas niños que asistían al concierto de su ídolo, la cantante estadounidense Ariana Grande.

Pancartas con mensajes de solidaridad, o mostrando el símbolo de la abeja obrera -modesta y laboriosa- que se asocia con Manchester, proliferaron en la plaza Albert, en un ambiente de calma y determinación para afrontar el futuro.

“He venido porque quería demostrar a los terroristas que no van a interrumpir nuestra vida”, dijo a Efe durante la vigilia Nick Smith, de 30 años, gerente de un restaurante que hoy ofreció al público café y bocadillos gratuitos.

Multitud de personas se subieron a los monumentos de la plaza para poder seguir mejor los discursos de las autoridades, bajo la atenta mirada de las cámaras de la prensa internacional que se ha apoderado del centro de la ciudad.

“Estoy conmocionada”, confesó a Efe Anne Durnham, una dependienta de 23 años que ayer se enteró del ataque por su compañero de piso, que es guarda de seguridad en el Manchester Arena.

“Pero no lograrán destruir nuestro espíritu, aquí la gente es abierta y positiva y eso no cambiará”, agregó.

Su amiga Cynthia depositó en un rincón un ramo de flores, como los muchos que se acumulan en la vecina plaza de Santa Ana en memoria de las víctimas.

Sara Beaumont, una abogada de 32 años, asistió a la vigilia solidaria con su bebé de siete meses, Adam, y su enorme perro, Bob, porque “no hacerlo hubiera significado admitir una derrota, como un feo a las víctimas”.

“Mi marido me dijo que me quedara en casa, pero no he podido, pienso que es importante estar aquí”, declaró a Efe.

Tras la consternación del primer momento, la ciudad de Manchester se sumió durante el día de hoy en un ambiente de tristeza que ahora parece haber dado paso a un clara determinación de seguir adelante y de no dejarse intimidar por los terroristas.

Belated WIP/Six sentence Sunday (it’s Sunday in the Uk 🇬🇧)

Thanks for the tag on Wednesday @loveellamae

I’ve been very quiet recently due to personal issues, but I’ve tried catching up with all my series, so are posting the bits that I’ve done below. Thank you to everyone who has asked how I’m doing - love you all 💕

*****

Cordonian Wags (can’t believe I haven’t posted since December 😱)

The Apples do not need anymore drama within the club- it looks as though Walker is arguing with his manager.

It’s such a shame that such a good match has come to this- I wonder what the argument is about? Walker has played well, but I’ve seen that he hasn’t been on the ball- get it?

Good pun- yes, even though he’s scored a hat trick his eyes have been scrutinising elsewhere around the stadium.

“Get back on the pitch, Walker!” Bertrand snapped towards Drake, he hated being stern towards him as he was his brother in law- but for some reason he was jeopardising the game.

“No!”

“Excuse me?”

“You heard me Bertrand. Riley’s not well.... I saw her run off...she needs me.”

“She’s just been sick. This match is important... is she pregnant?”

“No! And Riley is more important to me than a stupid match....”

“Tell me what’s up with her, then we can determine what is more important!” She’s got cancer you fucking moron.

“Just take me off, I’ve done enough in this match....” Bertrand grabbed Drake by the collar- his grip was tight, not knowing what had got into him- he witnessed the team walk over attempting to calm the situation down.

“Get the fuck off of me Bertrand! I quit!”

******

One Temptation

Drake pressed the button in the elevator, taking him up to the highest floor. Walking towards the desk, the receptionist looked Drake up and down- wondering who he was and what his intentions were.

“I’m here to see Mr Rhys. Before you ask, no- I haven’t got an appointment.”

“Name?”

“Just tell him his worse nightmare is paying him a visit..” Panic was written across the woman’s face, leaning closer towards her desk- her hand hovered over the security button. “Just tell him, it’s Drake.”

Hello Mr Rhys, you have a visitor. His name is Drake.

Hanging up, she explained that Liam would be with them momentarily. Sitting down on the leather chair, Drake was unsure how Liam would react to seeing him- would he throw him out? Would he play mind games?

“Drake. It’s nice to see you.” Not. “Follow me into my office.” Drake followed his instructions, as the two men walked into the room. Liam poured them both a drink, however Drake politely rejected. Not knowing if Liam could have potentially added poison to it as revenge.

“What can I do for you? I never thought I’d see the day that you’d pay me a visit voluntarily.”

“Trust me, I don’t want to be here. I despise you. Have you seen or heard from Riley?”

“No. Why would I hear from her? She wanted to send me to prison for raping her.” Hearing that word, Drake grit his teeth- knowing that Liam was still in denial with his past actions.

“Well you did do that. Listen, you probably know her better than any of us. We need your help. She ran away, she left me in Texas.” Liam laughed in Drakes face, just picturing Riley riding off into the sunset wearing a cowboy hat.

“What did you do?” He asked Drake, assuming he was the reasoning behind her disappearance- from past experience he should know how her mind ticked. She did the same when he hurt her.

“I did nothing, my mom and aunt Leona spoke to her. Then she went cold towards me, and was gone. Do you know anywhere that she could have gone?” Liam now knew the reasoning behind her departure- he was the reason why. Instead of acting like a dick, he felt empathy towards everyone who was looking for her- guilt for his past actions.

“Bianca, this is Liam Rhys- a friend of Drakes.” Bianca recognised the name immediately- clearing her throat, she provided a fake posh accent.

“Hello, Sir. How may I help?”

“Has Drake arrived in Texas yet? His flatmate was just wondering but he’s broken his phone.”

“No, not yet. I assume he should be here shortly. I’ll get him to ring you once he arrives.”

“Okay, thank you Mrs Walker. I hope the prostitute he is in a relationship with doesn’t ruin your families reputation. Have a good day.”

******

Hold my girl

Freya stormed out of the ballroom, not knowing why. Both her and Drake had confessed their feelings towards each other in New York, they had both agreed to a long distance relationship. So, to see him so close to the mystery woman was like a stab to the heart.

What am I even doing here? She muttered to herself.

“Freya!” Ignoring him, she ran off to her room- not looking back as she wiped her tears. Liam has suggested going to speak to her instead along with Maxwell for moral support, whilst drake took the time to ‘chill out’ before he put his foot in his mouth again.

“Blossom?” Maxwell said softly, as the two men waited for her to answer the door. “Lady Freya, we just want to make sure that you are okay?”

Opening the door, the two of them had sorrow in their eyes- both pulling her towards them for a group hug.

“I’m sorry. Liam, stop calling me lady please. I’m not in your court anymore. I’m just an American nurse now. Not a suitor, or a Duchess, or a Cordonian.”

“Frey, you are a Cordonian even if not officially- you’re a Beaumont, always will be. That woman...”

“Don’t Max... I don’t want to hear it. I thought we had something good- was all the words he said to me a lie? Did he use me for sex? I don’t know what to think. It was Drake who suggested the long distance thing- insisting it would work because he loves me. Maybe he should have just stayed as a jerk!” The two men knew that Drake wouldn’t hurt her, Maxwell soon had a smile appear on his face- a mischievous look, that look made Liam’s mind work overtime, wondering what the lord was thinking.

“Freya, grab some things and meet me in my room. Slumber party time, Beaumont’s only- sorry, Liam. No invite for you.”

“I’m busy anyway, no need for an apology. Goodnight Freya, I’ll see you tomorrow.” Kissing her on the cheek, Maxwell mimicked the king’s actions before following him out of the room.

A couple of hours had passed, and there was no sign of Freya. Maxwell just assumed that she had fallen asleep- walking out of his room towards hers, he noticed her door was slightly ajar.

“Frey?” Scrutinising the room, his heart sunk as realisation hit him like a ton of bricks.

She’s gone.

*****

Return to New York

Liam shouted for the guard to allow his visitors into his study- turning to face them he was shocked as to why the familiar person was here, and not with Riley.

“Daniel. It’s nice to see you again.” Is he here visiting? Like on a vacation? These questions were soon knocked out of mind as he heard the tiny patter of footsteps enter the room. Libby? Lydia? Lily? Fuck what’s her name again? What’s she doing here?

“I wish I could say the same, your Majesty. I’m sorry to disturb you. Do you know where Riley is? I can’t seem to get in touch with her.”

“I’m not sure of her exact location, but I have an inkling of where that might be. I don’t mean to sound rude, but why is she here? Shouldn’t she be with her father?” Daniel sighed, not knowing how to explain the reason for the impromptu visit. Asking the guard to escort the young girl out- he didn’t want to upset her anymore than she was already.

“Lissy, she lost her father. When Riley ditched him at the wedding- he became drunk, he got into his car.... he had a crash, and didn’t survive. He was upset, humiliated that Riley couldn’t talk to him herself. Lissy has no one, she’s going to go into care if Riley....”

“If Riley what?” Liam interrupted, he had an inkling about what Daniel was going to say- but really hoped that he was incorrect.

*****

We Belong

My dearest Evie, I’m so sorry for all the pain I caused you. I always loved you, I was stupid to let a diamond like you go- all for the sake of nothing. I had hoped in time that you’d forgive me, I killed the man who tried to rape you- the man who you would cry in your sleep about. Stupidly I believed once you knew my true identity that we could get back together. I was part of a troupe, going against the crown- Bianca and Anton had reasons. I didn’t. I was just in it for the money- the money that I would have used to shower you with gifts, to pay for your dream wedding that we imagined. I didn’t mean to stab you, Bianca pushed you into me- id never hurt you again. I still don’t know if you survived or not, no one will inform me. I was an idiot. I can’t live without you knowing that it was always you- if you survived, I hope you find true happiness. Happiness that you deserve. Liam is in danger, Anton goes by a fake name known as Justin. He is Riley’s press secretary. I need you to tell someone, to protect my old friend and his family. I’m so sorry for everything I’ve done. But now I’ve told you this, I have no choice but to end my life. Toby xo

*****

The Greatest Show

“Ri?” Amber questioned, assuming she was hallucinating- seeing her friend stood in front of her. Liam held onto Riley’s waist, looking adorably towards her.

“Surprise!” Riley shouted enthusiastically, waving her hands in the air.

“I’m confused, what the hell are you doing here? Why are you so close together? Liam have you forgotten about Olivia?”

“I’ve no got amnesia, Amber. Olivia has been in a relationship with Leo, behind my back. I’m no angel, as I fell in love with Riley whilst I was supposed to be courting Liv.” Amber was trying to allow this information to sink in, trying to figure out what exactly was going to occur due to the burden being her friend.

“Well I’m happy to see you Ri, lets hope you don’t get stabbed...” Riley’s eyes widened, but Liam laughed knowing exactly what she was referring to- or who.

“I’ll see you both tomorrow? I’ve got one tall, dark, handsome commoner waiting for me...” Making her way out of the room, she quickly turned to the two of them. “Oh Ri, thanks for bringing Jackson- I’ve missed him so much, and he’s missed his Mom like you said on the note.” Before Riley could react, Amber had shot out of the door. But I didn’t bring Jackson.

Exiting the room, Amber couldn’t wait to get back to Drake- mainly to explain the new court gossip to him. Feeling arms go around her waist, she smiled- turning around, that smile soon disappeared in a flash.

“Thought you’d escape me, did you?

*****

Hold on (follow up)

“Brooks....” Feeling like this was a waste of time, Drake decided that the best option was to walk away, as she wasn’t responding. Jackson placed a hand onto his father’s shoulder, suggesting that Drake should leave. Listening to his son’s advise, he left in a swift motion- frustrated that he couldn’t persuade her to come out of her hovel and just talk.

“Aunt Ri?” Jackson said softly as he knocked on the door. Riley knew she was being stubborn whenever a visitor would knock on the door- but for some reason she could never ignore her children, or her friends children.

“Jackson.” Smiling at his auntie, he pulled her in for a hug. “What can I do for you?”

“Have a walk? Or just a little talk with me? We all miss you, and want to help you through it. Dad just wants to grieve with you. You could help each other?”

“You’re only twenty one Jackson, you should be out with your friends- enjoying life. Don’t take a minute for granted. Loving each day as if it’s your last.” Listening to her words, he knew what she was referring to. His heart sunk, the usual poised Queen stood in front of him absolutely broken. “I miss him so much Jackson, and I miss your mom too. Each day that goes by, doesn’t get any easier. I need to be strong for Ayah, Louis and Ellie but truth be told- they are so much stronger than I am.”

“Riley!”

“Who the fuck is this? Put Amber back on.”

“It’s me, Liam.” There was silence on the other end of the phone, as well as silence surrounding Liam.

“Ri?”

You know I want you. It's not a secret I try to hide. But I can't have you. We're bound to break and my hands are tied.

“I don’t know anyone called Liam. I’m sorry, can you put Amber back on the phone please.” Amber now realising that Liam was the man who broke her friend’s heart changed her perspective about him. Damien gave out a sly laugh after piecing the pieces of the jigsaw together.

“So Riley was the commoner. This does complicate things.” He said as he smirked at Bastien. Leo gulped as the others whispered about Liam and Olivia’s relationship- wondering what this would mean for the two of them. Sneaking away, he needed to distract the Duchess before all hell broke loose.

“Riley. You know exactly who I am. Don’t lie to yourself.”

“Listen arsehole! I don’t know you. I don’t want to know you! Put my friend back on the phone or I’m coming to Cordonia.” Liam smirked, knowing she’d put her foot right in it.

“No one mentioned anything about Cordonia. So do tell me, how to do you know about a little unheard Mediterranean country. Amber said she was in Canada to her ex.”

“Fuck you Liam!”

“You’ve already done that, those few days in New York. Correct me if I’m wrong?” Hearing her sigh, Amber was shocked that Riley hadn’t hung up yet.

“Liam pass me the phone back, before I commit treason. Ri, I’ll ring ya back. I need to have words with a certain ‘fucker’.” Liam looked disgusted at Amber, tightening his grip on the phone- Drake shot him a look, making him realise that he should quit whilst he was ahead.

“Amber I’m off to work. I’m working the early shift tomorrow I’ll ring you back on this number tomorrow afternoon my time. I love you.”

“Love you too.” Hanging up, she noticed Damien and Bastien trying to hold in their laughter.

“How could you do that to Riley? To Liv? I thought Leo was the playboy prince?”

“Amber you don’t understand, I love Olivia. I fell in love with Riley too. You can’t exactly criticise me- you was in a relationship and having sex with Drake.” Drake felt her tense up, “Amber leave it. Please. We can go back up to my room.”

“Difference between you and I PRINCE Liam, is that my ‘boyfriend’ hurt me beyond words. I know how you can instantly fall in love, I have with Drake. But I dumped Bretts sorry ass before sleeping with Drake. You don’t know half of what happened once you left do you?” Shaking her head, she felt like she was going to be stuck in the middle of a love triangle. Riley was her closest friend, but Olivia had also claimed that title during her time in Cordonia.

“I don’t know what? Go on Lady Amber, do tell me.”

“No Liam, it’s in the past - if you don’t love Olivia don’t string her along. Don’t string Riley along either- she will kick ya ass Prince or not. I’m going to bed. Damien is there anything else you need to say?”

“No Amber, I’ll talk to you tomorrow about what we are going to do. Meet me around say ten?” Amber nodded.

“Amber, I’ll meet you in your room. I need to calm Liam down.”

“Okay.” Kissing her on her cheek, he focused his gaze onto his best friend.

“Come for a drink Li.” Passing his friend a scotch, his eyebrows raised- hoping his friend would confide in him. Ever since they were children, they had always told each other everything and anything.

“What’s up Drake? I have a ball to get back to.”

“Why the fuck didn’t you tell me? I thought we were best friends? What about Olivia? I know I don’t particularly like her- but come on Liam. How could you do that to them both?”

“I didn’t mean to fall in love with two women, Drake. With Riley it was different. I can’t explain. She’s beautiful. I’ve got a picture of us at the Statue of Liberty - every so often I’d look at it. Then I realised that it wasn’t meant to be. I look at how you and Amber have instantly clicked, how you are clearly falling in love with each other. I’m so confused Drake.” Showing Drake the photo, it did show Liam looking happier than ever.

“Is that why you was ‘snappy’ when you returned from New York? Because of her? You blamed it on the stress of becoming the crown prince and going through the social season.”

“Of course it was. I couldn’t confess the true reasoning. My father hates Olivia, imagine if I told him that I’d also fallen in love with a commoner. I’d be sending him into an early grave.”

“Li, you’re going to be the King. You are going to be making decisions for the rest of your life. But before you become King, you need to decide where your heart really lies. Like Amber said, don’t string them both along.”

“What has she done to you Drake? You’ve turned into a softy.”

“She unexpectedly came into my life. I’ve enjoyed spending time with her. I’m falling in love with her Li. For the first time in my life, I can see a future with someone.” She unexpectedly came into my life. I’ve enjoyed spending time with her. I’m falling in love with her. Drakes words were exactly how Liam felt about Riley.

“Do you think I could sneak away without anyone noticing?”

“What?”

“Leo owes me. He can cover for me for the regatta tomorrow.”

“Cover for you?”

“I’m going to go to New York now. Can you ask Leo to step in, say I’m sick?”

Amber slowly walked towards her room, before being grabbed by someone. Ready to punch the person, she stopped just in time.

“Your majesty.” Amber curtsied, as he bowed back to her.

“Lady Amber. Where are you going?”

“To my room. Why do you ask?”

“I’ll escort you there. I would like a few words in private.” Fuck he’s going to ask why I haven’t stuck to our agreement about ‘wooing’ Liam. Amber nodded, just to be polite. Really she was just wanting to spend time with Drake and ring Riley off the landline in her room. Arriving at her room, she allowed Constantine in. Offering him a scotch, he nodded and thanked her.

“So it has come to my attention that you are in a secret relationship with Drake. Is this true?” Gulping she felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. Her mother always brought her up to be truthful. He couldn’t exactly throw her out of the country now knowing the truth about her father.

“Myself and Drake are close. Yes that is true. Why?” Constantine knew she wasn’t telling the full truth.

“I don’t mind you having a relationship with him. There is a typical Cordonian marriage agreement. If you marry my son, you can still be in a relationship with him.”

“With all due respect your majesty, I wouldn’t worry about Liam marrying Duchess Olivia.” Seeing his eyes widen, she instantly regretted what she had just said. Shit Olivia is going to kill me.

“So you have stuck to our agreement then?”

“Not quite, no. He is in love with someone. As well as Olivia.” Fuck, I’m totally dead now. Shut up Amber! Maybe Leo should have sutured my lips together.

“Do I know this person?”

“No.”

“Thank you for this information Lady Amber, I shall speak to my son at the regatta tomorrow regarding this. You look more and more like your mother every time I see you. I was very fond of your mother. As we all were. Is she well?”

“My mother and father are well yes.” Constantine looked at her confused. He knew Barthelemy was her father- but he had passed away. As for the man who everyone believed to be her father, he had also passed away. “I speak to my Mom on the phone every so often. When I found out the truth that ‘uncle’ Barthelemy was my father- I rung her immediately. Countess Madeleine lied to me, she told me that Jackson was my father.”

“Excuse me, but you know about Barthelemy being your father? Amber, he passed away.”

“That’s what you all think. He ran off to the states to marry my mother. They are both very much alive and well. Only myself, Maxwell and Bertrand know the truth. Well you also know now. Bertrand was disgusted when they wed, it was Bertrand who decided it was for the best for him to fake his death. To avoid any scandals. To not cause a poor reputation for House Beaumont.” Constantine knew Amber was being sincere, truthful. He believed Barthelemy was one of his closest friends- he was now frustrated that he couldn’t confide in him.

“Do you have your mother and father’s address, I’d like to visit them both.”

“No, I don’t. I’m sorry. I rarely speak on the phone to them. When I did ring her, I was going to ask her to meet me when I returned to New York. I wanted them both to answer questions I have.”

“Lady Amber, you will always have a home here- as do they. You don’t have to return back to New York. I’ll leave you to get some sleep. See you at the regatta tomorrow.” Amber nodded and smiled softly at the King before he left.

****

Drake scrutinised the ballroom for Leo, not finding him anywhere he headed straight to the princes quarters. Knowing Liam would potentially throw him in a cell if he didn’t ask Leo to cover for him. About to knock on the door, he heard voices- Leo and Olivia. The voices soon became louder, more like moaning. The crashing noises echoing through the walls. Drake’s eyes widened- Leo and Olivia? Fuck. Deciding to just find Leo in the morning, he needed to see Amber.

*****

“Leo, someone is going to notice that we have disappeared.”

“As I said, Liam is distracted with; Bastien, a private detective, Amber and Drake. Amber’s ex has caused some trouble, if Liam is a good king to be - he will be a while discussing how they are going to prevent Ambers ex from doing anything further. You’ve never been this timid before.” Kissing her neck, his hands roamed her body. Olivia abruptly pushed him away.

“That’s because before the social season began, you was the crown prince not Liam. He loves me. He’s choosing me.”

“Liv, he’s been sleeping with an American behind your back.”

“I already know Leo, she’s called Riley. He has a photo of the two of them on his phone. He was ringing and texting her all the time. I blocked her number.”

“You sly bitch. Why didn’t you call him out?”

“Because this way I can still have you both. The typical Cordonian marriage arrangement. I love you both.”

“Liv..... What if we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be mine. Nothing could keep us apart. You'd be the one I was meant to find. It's up to you, and it's up to me. No one can say what we get to be. So why don't we rewrite the stars? Maybe the world could be ours tonight...”

“You think it's easy. You think I don't want to run to you. But there are mountains. And there are doors that we can't walk through. I know you're wondering why. Because we're able to be just you and me within these walls. But when we go outside. You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all....”

“If he loves this Riley, you and I can be together. All I want is to fly with you. All I want is to fall with you. So just give me all of you.” You know I want you. It's not a secret I try to hide.

Leo pinned her against the wall, crashing his lips on to hers. Just think about it Liv, he whispered as he placed kisses along her neck- causing her to throw her head back.

“Just fuck me Leo. I can’t resist you as always.”

*****

Amber rung Riley up, hoping the dive bar was dead as usual and that she’d be able to answer the call.

“Hello?”

“Ri, it’s me.”

“How the fuck are you with him?”

“He’s the Prince of my cousins country. My cousins that are actually my brothers. Riley, Maxwell and Bertrand are nobles. They live in Cordonia not Canada.”

“Oh great....”

“How’s work?”

“Shit. Are you ever coming back? Fucking Liam. I thought I was getting over him. Then bang, he’s there. With you. He has the cheek to ignore my texts then act as if nothing has happened.. he’s still mr fucker, mr fuck face.”

“Riley, I saw how upset he was. I’m not taking his side. I just assumed he was loved up with Olivia, it was a shock.”

“Fuck him. He’s in the past. I’ve got no link to him anymore. Babe I’ve got to go, please come home soon. I need a night out!”

“I am coming home sooner rather than later. I love you Ri.”

Drake opened the door, watching Amber hang up- he had heard the last part of the conversation. His heart instantly broke. Clearing his throat, she noticed she had company.

“Hey, how did it go with Liam?”

“Fine. He’s not feeling too well though. Erm Leo and Olivia are fucking. And now you’re going to leave me.”

“What? Leo and Olivia? Are you kidding? Drake.... I...”

“No I’m not kidding. It’s fine Amber, you don’t need to explain. I knew it wouldn’t last forever. Take care of yourself...” Before Amber could respond, Drake left abruptly. I’m going back to get my things to move here. To be with you.

*****

Liam arrived in New York along with Bastien, not knowing how Riley was going to react if he found her. The SUV parked outside the dive bar- he knew he needed some Dutch courage to talk to the woman who he let down. The two men entered the bar, it was quiet- Riley was sat on the bar as she was that first night she met him. Liam felt as if his heart was skipping beats. She’s still as beautiful as I remember.

“Can we have two scotches please.” Riley looked up, her eyes widened- those eyes locking with hers. The eyes she had become accustomed to all those months ago. Shaking her head, she had hoped that it was her imagination playing tricks on her.

“No. You are barred. Get out.” She snapped at him, all the anger she had kept inside was ready to be released.

“Riley! Serve the gentlemen now!” Her manager shouted at her, before apologising to Liam and Bastien. Looking at the clock it was 9.45am. She still had a few hours before she finished and Daniel would take over. Slamming the drinks on the table, she provided them with a stern look. Turning around, Liam grabbed her wrist- his baby blues pleading with her to just hear him out.

“This is Bastien, my guard. I just want to talk to you Riley. Please.”

“No Liam. What the fuck are you doing here? Is Amber with you?”

“No she isn’t. I’m here to talk to you. Bastien will leave us alone if you’d prefer.”

“Liam, I don’t want to talk. When I wanted to talk, you ignored me out of the blue. I needed to tell you something. But it doesn’t matter now. What we had was a fling. A stupid fling.”

“It wasn’t for me.”

“Liam... you’re a prince, you are marrying someone. It was a fling. I have to work.” Watching her wipe her tears away, he ordered Bastien to pay her manager to let her have the day off. He knew she would refuse to talk to him any further, but it was worth a try.

“Riley, it’s quiet. You may as well go home.” Riley noticed her manager, wink at Bastien. Shaking her head, she knew she would be an idiot refusing to leave work early. But she definitely wasn’t going to entertain Liam. Exiting the bar, she looked over her shoulder. Phew he’s got the hint, he’s gone.

“Riley!” Spoke too soon.

“What? Just leave me alone Liam.”

“I’ve got cronuts.. come back to the hotel I’m staying at. Just to talk. I need closure if you decide to never talk to me again.”

“Liam there’s nothing more to say. Go back to Cordonia. When you left....a month after... I found out.... I was....pregnant. I miscarried. That’s it. End of story. Goodbye Liam.” You don’t know half of what happened once you left do you? Remembering Ambers words, he now realised that was what she was referring to. Remaining silent, he didn’t know how to respond- placing a comforting hand onto her arm, she flinched. Natural instinct was to hold her in his arms as he did all those months ago. Ask her to confirm if the baby was his, even though deep down he knew it was with her explaining about it. Feeling like he had failed her and their child- he regretted losing contact with her. Eventually Liam pulled her towards him, she fell into his embrace- hearing his heartbeat increase, she looked up towards him. Caressing her cheeks, he wiped away the tears from her face- tears beginning to form in his eyes too. They needed to talk, he knew she was stubborn but he was going to make it his aim to attempt her to open up old wounds. Until she did, he didn’t want to return to Cordonia. Resting his forehead against hers, their breathing was now in unison- the need to kiss her, was difficult to resist. Leaning closer, their lips were inches apart.

“Riley!” Creating a larger distance, Riley turned her head. Liam still held on to her waist. He was wondering why her body had become all tense all of a sudden.

“What do you want?” Liam looked between Riley and the stranger, sensing tension- he would protect her even though he had no idea what was happening between the two people in front of him.

“Have you heard from Amber?” Riley looked at Liam, providing sorrow in her eyes. Knowing she had to protect her friend.

“No! So fuck off Brett! Leave us all alone! What are you going to do? Beat me to pulp again, like you did with Daniel. Like you did with Amber all those times?”

“What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas huh?” She said, barely able to keep her eyes open.

“It doesn’t have to? Where are you from? We could meet up again. I wish for happiness like this forever. You gave me the chance to be free, let loose.” Looking at him, she was unsure about what he meant by being free, but she didn’t have the time to question it. It wasn’t important.

“John, I have just started seeing someone back home, you know this. This was just a stupid one night stand. I drank too much.”

“We were both drunk. But you remembered everything right? Is your boyfriend as sexy as me though?” He winked at her, whilst flexing his pecs.

“Of course I remember! Some bits were blurry. But I remember. Don’t flatter yourself.” Standing up, he held her close to him- sharing one last lingering kiss.

“I hope our paths cross again Pocahontas.”

“Keep dreaming Prince Charming.” If only she knew.

“What’s your full name. I’ll find you on social media, we can keep in touch.” Quickly thinking of a surname, she knew they would never cross paths again.

“Marie Walker.”

*****

The night before

Everyone was on a high, ready to celebrate their friends twenty first birthday- deciding to go to Vegas they dread to think what mischief that they would get up to, but you’re only twenty one once.

Arriving at Caesar’s palace, they checked into their villa that they were sharing- the villa that nearly made them all bankrupt. Hoping to be successful with their gambling later on in the night, this would help them retrieve some of their money back.

“Okay, so we need fake names.” The friends all looked at each other confused as to why they would need a fake identity. “We are now known as; Marie, Mel, Kim, Elsie and Mitchell.”

“Okay, so I understand Elsie and Marie - family members names. I’m using my surname. But Mel and Kim?”

“Takin' chances, bold advance-e-es, Don't care if you think we're out of line.’ We sung Respectable at the karaoke bar the other night. Besides Mel and Kim were sisters like we are. We need fake names, in case there are any creeps or we get arrested or something.”

“Or married!” Mitchell said winking at the girls.

“Come on its my birthday! I need to get hammered!” Playing a few drinking games in the room, they were all instantly becoming gradually tipsy. Walking to the elevator, they all put their hands together- What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, they all reminded each other in unison.

*****

Leo wandered around the slot area, throwing money away as quickly as he was he may as well of flushed it down the toilet. Every time he won, he placed it back into the machine. It became busier as the night drew in, the playboy prince kept declining incoming calls from Bastien- knowing it would only be a matter of time before he would catch up to him. Leo was gradually becoming more intoxicated- people watching whilst leaning against a machine- his focus lingered on all the women around him.

Nice ass.

Nice tits.

Nice lips.

Blonde- no avoid blondes, especially if they are like Madeleine- my future wife. Eurghh.

She’s curvy, but still okay looking.

Too tall.

Too small.

Too drunk.

Too boring.

Bride to be- what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas though.

Too young.

Too old. Way too old- cougar though.

Leo shook his head, even considered giving himself into Bastien- that was until a group of people walked closer towards him. His eyes lingered on towards the brunette, the red dress that she was wearing flaunted all of her assets. Plucking up some courage- not that he needed it, he decided to walk over to the group of friends.

“Hello beautiful. Do you want a drink?” She looked at him, their eyes locking- before she focused her gaze to her drink before back to him.

“I’m good thanks. Save your dollars, it’s my birthday so I’m sure I could get a few drinks free.”

“Happy birthday!” He said enthusiastically, ignoring the fact that she had rejected his offer.

“Thanks. See ya.”

“Wait!” She looked at him, knowing he was probably just a ‘creep’- undeniably he was a handsome man but she wouldn’t admit that to anyone.

“Hey.... Marie.... we are going to head to the tables... you coming?” Kim shouted from a distance.

“Yeah, I’m coming. See ya around.” Pulling her closer towards him, he wanted to get to know the stranger.

“I’ll tag along, Marie.. beautiful name.” Shrugging her shoulders she released herself from his presence- she followed her friends- Leo soon became their shadow. Smirking at her, stealing glances every so often she shook her head- this awkward situation would soon disappear as the drinks flowed she believed.

“So you know my name, what’s yours?” She asked, to be polite- now knowing that he was like super glue- insisting on sticking with them.

“John Smith.” Rolling her eyes, she let out a slight giggle.

“I bet it is.”

“Are you calling me a liar?”

“Maybe? It’s just a generic human name that is used- like John Doe. I suppose that makes me Pocahontas then.”

“Well you can be my princess for tonight then?” Placing his arm around her waist, she felt his warm breath linger around her ear and neck.

“This isn’t some fairytale. This is Vegas baby. I’m celebrating my birthday with friends and you’re intruding.”

“Don’t you believe in fairytales?”

“No.”

“Ill tell you what, why don’t we both go over to the roulette table. If you win more I’ll leave you alone....”

“And if you win more?”

“Then you’re stuck with me all night.” Great. I don’t know how to play. It’s just fluke on the roulette. Right?

“Fine deal, I’ll let my friends know.”

Walking over to her friends, they knew exactly what was about to happen- all smirking at her then at the mysterious man.

“What?” Marie snapped at them.

“You’re going to ditch us... it’s written all over your face.”

“I need to win more on the roulette, he said he would leave us alone if I did.” Maybe she was being naive, or maybe he would genuinely leave them if she did win the bet- her friends all laughed in unison, the could already predict exactly how her birthday was going to end. It wasn’t going to end with them, like they originally planned.

“Of course he did. He isn’t leaving you at all- he’s providing you with ‘fuck me eyes’.... a certain man back home won’t be happy.”

“No he’s not- his flirting skills are atrocious. And regarding a certain man, we aren’t together officially yet. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. But nothing is going to happen. I’ll ring you once I’ve got rid of him.”

*****

“Fuck!” Marie muttered to herself after an hour on the roulette table, knowing that she had now lost the bet- dramatically.

“So babe, I assume I won the bet then...” Sighing she knew this was a bad idea to begin with, now knowing that he would be acting all smug.

“You’d assume correct, stop smirking at me like that...”

“Like what? This?” He asked in a seductive tone of voice whilst placing his hands around her waist again. He continued smirking- her heart began fluttering, not knowing if it was due to the alcohol. Brushing a stray strand of her brunette hair behind her ear, she froze not knowing how to react- her breathing rapidly increased due to the handsome strangers touch. He leaned down claiming her lips taking the plunge. Wrapping her arms around his neck, one hand tangled through his hair as she pulled him closer- as if they were a magnet, attracted to each other immediately. His hands hovered at the sides of her tiny frame before gripping her hips, pulling them flush to him. Moaning into the kiss, she felt as if she was hypnotised- in some type of spell. In the back of her mind, she felt guilty as she had just started a relationship back home, but in this moment in time she felt lust and desire towards the stranger. Breaking the kiss, she looked at him feeling breathless- feeling his hardening length pressing on to her, she didn’t know what to expect for the rest of the night.

“You could carry on throwing your money down the drain, or there’s another option...”

“Oh... what would that be?”

“Ditch your friends and spend the night with me..” The angel on one shoulder was trying to convince her to not stray from her loyal friends, however the devil demanded that she gave in to temptation.

“What would you say if I ditch you instead?”

“That you’re a let down, I mean you’ve already kissed me... wouldn’t you like to experience the whole package?”

Guys I’m really sorry but have a good night, I’ll see you in the morning - please don’t respond. I’m fine. I’m okay. I’ll send an SOS if I need you. Love you all x

“Lead the way then John Smith... but....”

“But what?”

“I Erm... I’ve just sort of started seeing someone back home...” Grabbing her hand, he led her up to his room ignoring the information she had just provided him with- hoping that she wouldn’t back out due to this. In the elevator, they were alone- pressing the button, he then turned to her. Pushing her against the wall, his hands frantically roamed her body as he crashed his lips onto her- opening her mouth gasping for air he took the opportunity to place his tongue next to hers. Their tongues were dancing along with each other until the doors opened and other people entered, immediately letting go of her- he smirked at her- feeling frustrated as he would have carried on if they hadn’t been abruptly disturbed.

Opening the door, he welcomed her into his penthouse- her eyes widened at how a single man could afford this on his own.

“Help yourself to the mini bar, I’ll just get ready.” Nodding her head, she headed towards it- bending down scrutinising the options Leo became immediately distracted gawking at the view in front of him. Fuck she’s got a nice ass, why do I need to get ready? I’ve got a beautiful girl in my room. These thoughts kept roaming through his mind, usually he would open his bedroom door and immediately demand that for his date to get into bed, straight to business- he was known as the playboy prince after all.

“Hey, what did you choose to drink?” Turning to face him, she admired his toned muscled body and sparkly baby blues now that he had removed his shirt and glasses. “Erm... I’m ... undecided. Maybe you could help me?”

Walking over towards her, deep down he wanted her - not a drink. Caressing her cheek, she felt weak at the knees immediately. “Or we could decide to avoid the drink?” She barely whispered, into his ear. Leo’s hands gently roamed up and down her body, whilst placing gentle kisses on her bare skin that was on show- as she stood frozen hypnotised by his good looks. “You are beautiful, how about we take this over to the bed?” He asked confidently, knowing his charm had never failed him before. Gulping she agreed, carrying her over bridal style- he gently placed her onto the bed - feeling his erection against her immediately again as he hovered over her, she wanted him - there was no doubt about that. “I think you’re a bit overdressed Marie...”

“Maybe you could sort that out for me?” Standing her up at the edge of the bed, he unzipped her red dress- the material effortlessly fell to the ground, she was standing in front of him in her matching red lacy bra and thong which turned him on, not that he wasn’t already. Unclasping her bra, he cupped both breasts- before pushing her back on to the bed.

Marie arched her back, moaning quietly but loud enough for him to hear as his thumbs rubbed her nipples in gentle circles, whilst kissing her neck. His lips began to wander down from her neck, along her shoulders before taking one nipple into his mouth- flicking his tongue around it, before swapping to the other one. Once he had finished, his hands wanted to explore the rest of her body. Sliding down her petite body- reaching her inner thighs- he spread them open taking full control. Pushing her lace thong to the side- his fingers teased her at the entrance, even with a brief touch she was immediately damp. “So wet already baby. It must be my good looks.” He winked at her. “Of course it is, your ego could explode if you carry on talking like that.”

“Do you want me or not Marie? Because I could always back out if you carry on with this sarcasm...”

“Don’t you dare stop John, I’ve ditched my friends for you- so you better carry on....” Forcing a demanding kiss on to her lips, he tugged at her bottom lip with his teeth. Moving his thumb over her clit, she couldn’t contain her moans- these light touches soon changed as he plunged his fingers deep inside.

“You like that baby?” Ignoring him, she just nodded, removing his newly coated fingers- he licked them seductively in front of her, this gesture aroused her at once. Leo smirked knowing he was showing how to treat a girl with fantastic oral sex. Seeing her breathless already, he removed his fingers. Removing her lacy thong, he threw it- not really noticing which direction it landed in- kissing her inner thighs, he now replaced where his fingers previously were with his tongue instead.

“You taste so good.” He said before plunging his tongue deeper inside. “Fuck! Don’t stop please.” She screamed, as she dug her nails into his back leaving a slight mark. Removing his tongue, he placed his fingers there again giving her that bit more pleasure- smiling at her, her whole body was now trembling. Her fingers brushed over his chest, before arriving at the waistband of his jeans. Seeing the bulge- she bit her lip- their eyes focused on each other, showing his infamous smirk he stood up removing his jeans and boxers knowing that they were both thinking the same thing. Whilst he did this she sat up- watching him releasing his growing manhood. Fuck he’s going to break me in half with that. “Like what you see?” He asked noticing her gaze was down below, before giving him full eye contact. “I like what I see, but I’d prefer to touch and feel you...” Leo let out a sigh, as she wrapped her hand around his length- even though he loved her hand expertly stroking him, he didn’t know how much longer he would last. Licking her lips, she stroked his length, before taking it fully in her mouth.

“This feels amazing, but I believe you said you wanted to feel me as well...” Looking up at him fluttering her eyelashes, she did want him- but wanted to finish what she had started. Feeling his cock pulsate at every move- knowing she was pleasing him as he did her, she picked up her pace, before removing his cock. Laying her backwards he forcefully placed another passionate kiss on her lips. His firm muscled chest, was now pressed against her bare skin- separating her legs as if she was an expert gymnast, he thrust against her- teasing her at her wet entrance. Lining himself up, he didn’t think about the consequences- he was hoping that she was on contraception, as she didn’t stop him. Slowly pushing in, he heard her moan- pausing for a brief second allowing her walls to get used to him, he began with slow gentle thrusts. This slow yet steady pace soon turned powerful, every thrust hitting that specific spot. “Fuck.” She kept whimpering, was it worth ditching her friends- yes. In her mind this was the best sex she had received, but she wouldn’t admit that to the already confident stranger, if he asked she knew she would play it down. Her hands remained on his back, every thrust she would unknowingly scratch her nails deeper into his skin.

Arching her back, her legs felt like jelly- her whole body fluttered, hoping that this night would never end. Kissing her on the lips, he was ready to finish- not wanting to, he felt slightly embarrassed at how quickly this was occurring. Slowing his movements down, he gripped her hips tightly as he felt that sudden rush of semen, his warm seed soon exploded in her. Staying in that position, he rest his forehead against hers- sweat was now dripping from his forehead and down his body. Slipping his cock out of her, he gave one last thrust against her wet folds- the remainder of his cum was now mixed along with hers. Laying next to her, they were both breathless and remained silent, both fixating their eyes towards the ceiling. “Could your friends provide you with a fantastic birthday present like that?” He asked before turning to face her.

“Would be slightly weird if they could...” She laughed at him, before snuggling into his embrace still trying to catch their breath. “Four girls and one man- you never know... he could share you all.”

“I don’t think his girlfriend Lo- Kim would agree with Mitchell sharing us all...”

“Fair enough, so you’ve already technically cheated on your new boyfriend.... we could make the most of the night?” The cheeky grin that appeared on his face was too hard to ignore, not knowing if he was being sincere or just having a joke. Rolling onto to him, she straddled him- gripping on to her hips, she leaned down for another kiss- it was her new addiction- an addiction that she would never taste again. Why not? She thought. “I’ll take control this time.”

*****

Coming out of her trance, Maxwell noticed Amber wasn’t her usual self. Drake had left them with Leo to get some drinks.

“Ambs? What’s up?” Placing his hand around her, he knew her the best out of everyone- he could see she was worrying and over thinking.

“I’m Marie.” She responded looking out towards the horizon, not making eye contact with her brother but instead resting her head on his shoulder.

“Yeah I know you are, Amber Marie Smith-Beaumont. My baby sister.”

“No... I’m that Marie. Leo’s Marie. Leo’s Vegas one night stand. If Drake finds out, he’s gonna leave me.” Finally looking him, he believed she was pulling some practical joke- until he felt her take a long breath.

“What? Rewind... you went to Vegas... slept with Leo... neither of you have recognised each other?”

“I was twenty one, I’m sure I’ve got a few more wrinkles due to stress in those four years. He was wearing glasses, I was drunk. He was drunk. I remember it though. I went with Riley, Lola, Beth and Daniel. Lola insisted that we had fake names... he did a bet with me, then I ended up in his bed. Fuck.”

“Shit, you just need to sleep with Liam, Rashad, Neville, Connie and Godfrey- then you’ve done them all. Id say you’ve done a full house, but obviously it would be wrong if you slept with me and Bertrand. But it’s as close as a full house.” Cheekily grinning, he was having a joke until he felt her punch him in the shoulder.

“MAXWELL!”

“Sorry, Sorry.” Holding his hands up- he wished he had a white flag to surrender- he didn’t want a replay of what she did to Madeleines nose. Drake and Leo, joined the pair- Drake kissed Amber making her heart flutter instantly.

“Drake? Can I have a word in private?” Maxwell asked, seeing Drake become frustrated before eventually agreeing. I’ll be back soon beautiful. Leo laid next to Amber, admiring the beautiful view in front of them- remaining in silence, she knew she had to tell him the truth.

“So John Smith, had anymore Vegas flings?” Leo looked at her confused, before his eyes widened.

“Pocahontas?”

“Leo, please don’t tell Drake.”

“This is so fucking funny!” Hysterically laughing, she provided him with looks that could kill.

“It’s not funny Leo! I never thought I’d see you or should I say John, again.”

“No the whole situation isn’t funny, but you have to admit it was a good shag. The funny thing is you called yourself Marie Walker. Marie I assume after your mother. But now it’s funny because you used Walker as your surname. One of these days you could actually be a Walker.”

“How do you remember that?”

“I tried to find you, why did you use Walker? I thought that kiss you gave me in Lythikos was slightly familiar.”

“Because if I said Smith- Beaumont you’d find me straight away as my middle name is Marie. So technically I wasn’t lying unlike you. My mom always spoke about Jackson Walker, I panicked. A kiss is a kiss surely?”

“I had to lie, I was on the run from Bastien. Listen, as you said before what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Our secrets safe, although you do know where to find me if you want round three though.”

“If you wasn’t a Prince even though you’ve abdicated, I’d be tempted to punch you right now. Thank you for keeping this between us. Still friends Zimmer?”

“Of course suture. But the offer is still there- ya know if you get bored of Walker.” Hugging her, they both had closure and both eventually laughed at the awkward situation. She now realised why Olivia kept running to him- Leo was great in the sac, she couldn’t deny that and she would never admit that to anyone. But he wasn’t Drake. Her boyfriend.

“Hey baby.”

“Hey you. What did Maxwell want?”

“He gave me the protective brother lecture. Begging me to not hurt you or leave you- I wouldn’t do that anyway. I’d rather have this ‘lecture’ from him than Bertrand. Are you ready to go back to the palace?”

“Im ready for you.” One of these days you could actually be a Walker. Leo’s words kept repeating in her mind, placing a kiss on his lips, she melted into his embrace.

“C’mon then m’lady.”

*****

Arriving back at the palace, Amber wanted to go to her room first to collect some ‘sleepover essentials’. Opening her door, there was a box surrounded with holes and a ribbon in the middle of her bed. Peering in her mouth was agape believing this wasn’t reality- more like an hallucination, tears began pouring down her face.

“Jackson!” Opening the box eagerly, the puppy jumped out of the box- excited to see his mom.

“You have a pup? Called Jackson?”

“When I got him I couldn’t think of a name, my mom suggested Jackson. I think she had a crush on your father, the name kind of stuck with him.”

“Well who wouldn’t have a crush on a Walker? But how has he got here?” They both looked concerned at each other, in the back of her mind she just assumed that one of her friends sent him. Scrutinising the box, Drake found a note- passing it to Amber she read it out loud.

I think he’s missed his Mom, meet me in the ballroom. I’ll be waiting for you. Come alone X

******

Cordonia

Maxwell and Bertrand returned to the palace, they both immediately headed to Ambers room. It seemed unusually quiet to say that everyone needed to prepare for the regatta.

Knocking on the door, there was no response. Opening the door slowly- they saw their sister still fully clothed, curled up on the end of the bed.

“Ambs? Blossom?”

“Go away Max. Please.” She whimpered.

“Amber get up now! Us Beaumont siblings have a regatta to win- the three of us.”

“Bertrand?” Sitting up, her make up was smudged- Maxwell looked at her concerned. Assuming it was something to do with Brett he was ready to kill him.

“What happened at the ball? All you okay?”

“Brett hired a private detective. I’m due to meet him soon in fact. That’s all that happened.”

“Amber don’t lie. What’s Drake done?” Maxwell and Amber looked at Bertrand, knowing he could see straight through her.

“Bertrand, he must have overheard me on the phone to Riley. I told her I was going back sooner rather than later. I meant that I was going back to pack my belongings to move here, to be with my brothers and Drake. But he left me, told me to take care of myself after telling me he knew it wouldn’t last.”

“Drake is sometimes like that, he’s always been popular with the women. Always been guarded. But Amber, believe me I say this, I’ve never seen him smile before as much as he does when he’s around you. He told me he was falling in love with you in Lythikos.”

“He’s got a funny way of showing it. I thought he was the one. Liam fucked Riley by the way, and Olivia is fucking Leo.” The brothers eyes both widened, both gobsmacked by what she had just informed them about. “Anyway, I better go and meet Damien. I’ll meet you both at the regatta. Team Beaumont!”

*****

Damien was waiting for Amber at the bottom of the grand staircase. As she walked down, he held his hand out to her as she got closer to him.

“So, it’s just you and I today. Bastien has gone to New York with Liam.”

“What? Why? Because of Brett?”

“No. Riley.”

“Is she okay? He hasn’t hurt her has he?”

“Well that depends on how rough Liam is in the sack.”

“Excuse me?”

“They found Riley. Bastien informed me that he took her back to his penthouse. They also had a run in with Brett. Liam and Bastien sorted him out. I don’t think he will bother any of you again.”

“You... you don’t know him...he’s dangerous.”

“Amber, calm down. You have your family and Drake here. By the sounds of it Riley has Liam. So I’ve been thinking, if I go and meet Brett- explain that I couldn’t find you then he will possibly back off.”

“Until he hires someone else... I’m always going to be looking over my shoulder. I don’t mind him hurting me, but he beat Daniel up- made Riley miscarry, all because they were supporting me.”

“I’m the best PI in New York. If I can’t find a ‘missing person’ ... they are technically missing. When are you going back?”

“After the coronation ball, I need to go back to get my puppy, my things. I was born in Cordonia, this is my home.”

“I will go back to New York, when you return- let me know. I’ll help you pack. And I will bring you back.”

“Thank you. So much!” Amber hugged him tightly. She was grateful for this genuine stranger being on her side.

“Look after yourself Amber.”

*****

Arriving at the regatta, all hell was breaking loose. Amber now wishing she was on a plane back to New York with Damien. Bertrand noticed her arrive and pulled her on to the boat that they would be racing on.

“What’s happening?”

“Do you know where Liam is?”

“Yes. Damien told me he’s in New York, fucking Riley. Why?”

“Don’t speak like that Amber, you are a lady. When is he coming back? King Constantine isn’t thrilled that the crown prince has gone awol. He could expect this from Leo. But not Liam. After the race, we need to contact Riley.” Amber nodded. “Right let’s win this race. We are Beaumont’s. It will restore our house’s reputation. You are going to have to pull your weight. You won’t be acting like Lady muck like Olivia.” Amber shrugged her shoulders, turning around Maxwell bounded up towards her.

“Hey Ambs. Are you ready to race?”

“Ready yes. Do I want to race? No!”

“Us Beaumont’s are gonna smash it, along with Drakes help.” Drakes here. Shit.

“What’s he doing here?”

“Just talk to him Ambs. He feels shit about leaving you last night.”

Before they set off to the regatta, the two brothers decided to pay Drake a visit- they were protective over Amber anyway, but now she was their sister the two of them had become immediately more protective.

“Good morning Drake, may we come in?” Drake sighed and allowed them both in.

“What do you want Bertrand? Shouldn’t you be preparing for the regatta?”

“How could you do that to Amber? You told me you was falling in love with her. I thought we were friends Drake. Friends don’t hurt their friends sisters.”

“Max she’s going back to New York. I wish I didn’t fall in love with her instantly. Because now she’s leaving me, leaving us. I’ve had plenty of girls in the past, but never felt anything towards them. I believed she was the one.”

“She’s going back to New York to collect her things to move here- to be with you. When we came to the palace this morning she was still in her clothes from the previous night, she looked like a panda because her mascara had smudged.”

“She’s staying in Cordonia?”

“Yes. Maybe if you spoke to her, she would have explained that. She’s stubborn, she will not make the first move. If you don’t want to lose her, you’ll have to speak to her first.”

“What if I’ve already lost her? I know I haven’t known her that long but I love your sister. She’s too good for me. What does she see in me? She probably won’t even talk to me. Why am I such a dickhead?”

“Drake I know you and I aren’t close. But if you feel that way, don’t let her go.” Bertrand thought back to how he let the love of his life disappear in a flash all because he was too stubborn to let her know how he truly felt.

“Hey.” Drake said hesitantly, knowing Amber was upset with him.

“Walker.” Knowing how stern her tone of voice was towards him, he wanted so desperately for her to forgive him even if that meant for him to beg for forgiveness.

“Amber... please talk to me. I’m so sorry. I don’t want to ever lose you. I panicked. I couldn’t bear the thought of you returning to New York.”

“I was going back to get my shit Drake. So I could... I don’t know... it doesn’t matter now.” Pulling her into his embrace, he wished that they didn’t have to race- instead he wished he could whisk her away, prove how much he loved her. Amber pushed him away, focusing her gaze to the floor- now not knowing if they would work with the lack of communication.

“Come on you two! We need to win this.” The race began, and between the four of them the took a head start- Bertrand bossing them around gave them the encouragement to think positive about winning.

“The winds changed.”

“Adjusting sails.” Drake and Maxwell together fixed the angle of the sails, before Maxwell threw Amber a rope asking her to tie it down. Following her brother’s instructions, she admired the bow she had tied- memories from her childhood flashing in front of her.

“We’re coming in too fast! Brace yourself.” The boat made a sharp turn to the right- Amber was still in a daze, Drake noticed that she wasn’t holding on- jumping over Maxwell who was crouched on the floor, he caught Amber just in time.

“Did you not hear me?”

“Sorry, I was thinking about my childhood. Thank you for being there for me.” Maxwell and Bertrand noticed the two of them staring into each other’s eyes, knowing they we’re almost at the finishing line the two brothers decided to continue finishing the race.

“I’ll always be here for you. Always. I love you Amber.”

“You do?” Needing reassurance, he held on to her- before placing a kiss onto her lips.

“I do love you. I meant what I said when I said I’d take you on a date once this is all over.”

“I love you too Drake. I missed you last night.”

“I’m sorry. I missed you too. How about I take you on that date after the race? They usually go to a beach party, but we could sneak away.”

“I’d love to go on an impromptu date with you.” Unable to stop kissing each other, they wasn’t aware that they was close to the finishing line- until Maxwell played cockblocker. “Guys Connie will be watching. Be careful.”

“Max he already knows about us.”

“Okay, well everyone else does too, but you know what the press are like. They are already having a field day with Liam disappearing.”

*****

Arriving at the beach, Drake whisked Amber away to a secluded cove once she arrived with the brothers- the scenery surrounding them was quaint, romantic.

“Hey, are you going to tell me what’s in the bag?” Drake smirked at her, laying on the beach- he gestured for her to join him.

“So... because this was very impromptu... whilst Maxwell distracted you after the race- I quickly went back to the palace and asked them to prepare me some food.”

“How did you manage that? Isn’t the food at the beach party acceptable enough?”

“Yes, but I thought you may be feeling a bit homesick... so I ordered a classic Americana bbq- pulled pork, chicken kebabs, brisket, ribs etc. And you can’t forget the classic sloppy joe!” He explained with the biggest grin on his face.

“Drake, I love sloppy joes. They were basically all I ate through middle school. Oh my god. You are incredible. You thought about me. No ones ever done that before.” Jumping on to him, she kissed him without breathing for air- feeling grateful for this man who she barely knew thinking about her and only her. He was selfless.

“It’s just a bbq Amber, no need to suffocate me.”

“I’m sorry! I can’t believe you’ve done all this for me.”

“Tuck in, before the others- or should I say Maxwell sniffs it out. You deserve to be spoilt.”

“You’re such a marshmallow.”

“Only for you. You don't need everyone to love you, just a few good people. Just me.” Blowing him a kiss, he over dramatically caught it- before they both tucked in to the food. Licking her lips, she had to admit the boy did good, she wasn’t homesick at all but it was nice to have a taste of America. Seeing Drake engrossed in the food, a mischievous smirk appeared on her face. Placing a bit of sloppy joes on a spoon, she flicked it in his direction- making it land on directly on Drake’s face. “Hey!” Drake spat her, looking at her biting her bottom lip- he shook his head.

“Hey... you look pretty saucy there Walker.” She said in a seductive manner. “I’ll get you back for that Beaumont!”

“I’d like to see ya try! How many times, my name is Smith-Beaumont!” Jumping up, she stripped her bikini cover off- and headed towards the sea. Drake’s heart began to pound that loud, that even Amber who wasn’t near him could possibly still hear it. “Come on Walker, what’s keeping ya?” She shouted whilst strutting her hips, he swallowed hard as he continued to stare at her from a distance. Removing his clothes, he ran into the sea after her. “What took you so long?”

“I was distracted by a gorgeous lady in front of me.” Splashing the salty water into his face, a slight smile tugging on her lips. Picking her up, she wrapped her legs around him- holding that position, they both stared longingly at each other. Pressing her lips onto his in a soft yet lingering kiss, they parted- both their hearts beating ten to the dozen. Removing her wet loose hair to the side, he placed kisses around her neck, moving slowly towards her shoulder, before returning to her lips creating a passionate kiss. She let out little whimpers of anticipation, whilst throwing her head back.

One of Ambers hands worked its way around- feeling each crevasse, each line along his perfect manly physique. Whilst her other hand held onto his shoulder tightly for support. “Amber, I want you so bad.”

“In the sea?” Drake nodded, releasing her legs from his waist- she stood up, her hand reaching down already feeling the erection. “I can tell you want me, do you want me to rub him? Or is that teasing you?”

“Let me see to you first.” Drake moved Amber’s bikini to the side, moving his thumb in a tantalising rhythm along her clit- she lift one leg up resting it on his hip. Every movement he made increased Ambers arousal- pushing her over the edge. He slid his middle finger into her and continued rubbing her clit with his forefinger. Increasing the amount of fingers, he continued pumping her hard- hitting that spot- she couldn’t keep her moans quiet. “Drake! God. Don’t stop. Please.”

“You enjoying that baby?”

“Yes... I enjoy you... Do you believe in love at first sight?”

“What?”

“Just answer the god damn question Drake! Don’t stop though!” Following her instructions, he continued pleasing her.

“I never believed it until I met you. My whole life I thought I was going to be running away from everyone... everything. But now I know I was running towards you. I love you. No matter what may try to keep us apart, we will always find each other. I want you to be mine. Will you be mine Amber?” Amber removed his hand from her, and placed her leg back on the seabed.

“Are you asking me out Drake Walker?” Holding her hand, he guided her to the edge of the beach- laying down he pulled her on top of him. “Yes, I am. So what do you say? Be mine?”

“Are you going to look after me? Protect me? Love me?”

“Of course I am.” Fucking Brett has made her lose trust in all men. I’m going to kill him if I ever see him.

“Good. Because I now have two very protective brothers.”

“Is that a yes?” His eyes searched hers, they were full of desire and hope.

“It’s big fat yes!” Caressing her cheeks, he rubbed his thumb along her jawline. Rolling her off him, and onto her back- he hovered over her, placing gentle kisses on each part of her body. Amber held her hand towards his cock, hoping to give him that bit of pleasure that he had given her- shaking his head he refused- making Amber provide him with a perplexed expression. “Today is about you, I needed to make it up to you Amber. I’m now going to make love to my beautiful girlfriend.”

“That sounds so surreal.”

Removing her bikini bottoms one hand held on to them, whilst his other hand roamed up along her thigh before teasingly rubbing his cock gently against her entrance- seeing Amber raise her eyebrows- he smirked before entering her slowly. After the first few thrusts he decided to decrease the speed of his movements, knowing their was a possibility that he would prematurely climax. He wanted her to reach her climax at least once more- possibly ride out her high with him. Now they were officially a couple, his fantasies about their sex life was roaming through his mind. Remembering how he masturbated over her after meeting her.

With every movement increasing, every whimper Amber released was now becoming louder- Drake was grateful for the sound of the crashing waves overpowering her voice. As soon as her body began to jerk in response to her climaxing again, Drake found himself astoundingly moved. He knew he was close himself, but he wished he could hold off a bit longer- regretting that Amber made him feel this way that he would finish so quickly. Feeling the abrupt rush of his seed, racing through him, he raised Ambers hips slightly- holding on to them, he fixed his concentration onto her as he let out a low growl. Amber felt the warmth of his climax, both breathing heavy- she forced his lips onto hers. Pulling out, he kissed her on the forehead and returned her bikini bottoms to her. Immediately assisting Amber to stand up, he pulled her towards him kissing her on the lips, he had never had an addiction before- most people would say he was addicted to whiskey- but right now in his life Amber was his addiction, his drug- and he couldn’t get enough of her.

“Come on, let’s go back in the sea and ‘clean ourselves up’.. so your room or my room tonight?” Holding his hand, Amber felt the happiest she had done in years. Walking further into the sea away from the beach- they held on to each other. “Your room Walker, lets christen your bed- ‘Netflix and chill’ for our second official date.”

“What is it with you and ‘Netflix and chill’?” Amber shrugged her shoulders. “You do know if you hurt me I have two protective older brothers. They were protective as cousins so imagine what they would do now we know they are my brothers.” Drake gulped, knowing he would never hurt her- those words did make him wonder what they would do.

*****

“Put each other down will ya!” Leo shouted from a distance seeing Amber and Drake frolicking in the sea. “You wouldn’t want to cause a scandal in front of the press.” Leo winked at the two of them as they walked out of the sea hand in hand. Maxwell joined Leo, happy to see that the couple had sorted their brief argument out. Drake wrapped a towel around Amber, towel drying her. Leo pretended to regurgitate witnessing the twos PDA. Amber raised her eyebrows towards the prince.

“Leo, what’s up are you jealous that Olivia isn’t here?”

“I don’t know what you are referring to Lady Amber.”

“Cut the shit! Drake came to your room last night to explain that Liam wouldn’t be attending today. He heard the two of you.”

“It’s not the worse thing I’ve done. We are in Cordonia, there’s a typical marriage arrangement as you’ll be aware of. She’s aware of Riley and Liam’s relationship. So Liam isn’t exactly innocent either.”

“Ambs just leave it. But what do you mean it’s not the worse thing you’ve done?” Max wanted to calm the situation down- but was still intrigued as to what the prince was referring to.

“Years ago, I ran away - as I always used to. I ended up in Vegas. I managed to gamble, drink and have a one night stand before Bastien located my whereabouts.”

“Typical playboy prince, I bet you don’t even remember her or her name for that matter?”

“Actually Walker, I remember it all considering all the booze we had. Her name was Marie.” Amber froze. Needing to remove herself from the situation, she kissed Drake on the cheek explaining they should get back to the beach party. Turning to Leo, she knew she had to keep a stoic expression.

“What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas huh Leo?”
