PRINCESS EMERIEL

The next three days were the best in her life. Emeriel and King Daemonikai spent nearly every moment together, and she cherished each one.

They talked about everything. Her time in the human world, her physical training, her hobbies, and childhood memories. In turn, he opened up about his own youth, even shared pieces of his late family.

Emeriel hummed softly as she put away their dinner dishes. Warm and vibrant joy bubbled within her. Even the topics that could have been awkward or painful were touched upon-

if only lightly-without tension or avoidance.

She was truly, deeply happy, about the incredible progress they had made together.

Setting aside the court, their past, and their pain, they had spent these days simply being together. The peace, the quiet, and the simplicity of the surroundings were a nice change. This cottage nestled in one of of Urai, had become. a sanctuary for them, and she loved it.

Yesterday evening. Daemonikai took her for a walk, leading her along the winding paths of the village. Locals greeted their grand king with enthusiasm and kindness, extending the same warmth to her. When they returned home, Daemonikai pulled her into his lap by the crackling fireplace, where they talked and cuddled late into the night.

She loved having his undivided attention, watching him smile, seeing him so at ease.

But a slight worry disturbed her.

King Daemonikai hadn't touched her intimately in days.

precious thing in the world. His hands were always greedy when it came to caressing her as they cuddled.

And occasionally, when she walked past him, he'd cup her butt or touch her breasts so unexpectedly, making her jerk. But it all ended there.

Despite the nights when his manhood poked her all through the dark hours, or the mornings when he woke

with clear arousal, he hadn't tried to take her body again.
