Chapter 137

RYKER’S PO.V

I knew that I had her right where I wanted her. It didn’t take long for me to realize that she was a narcissist and chalking up her ‘achievements’ to luck would have been enough to pis s her off. There was nothing she would hate more than being told she wasn’t smart enough to come up with a plan or smart enough to execute it properly.

“I suppose I could just tell you everything that happened but I don’t see the fun in that,” she mused aloud as I took the seat in front of her. “All I will say is that you are one difficult man to catch unaware. I suppose it should be a thing of joy that you have eyes for only your mate. There are a lot of men who I cannot say the same for.”

“Why did you do this?” I asked and she shrugged. “There has to be a reason. You wouldn’t just get up and try to ruin lives. It isn’t just my life that you’re playing with here.”

“Did you ever consider that maybe I was just bored?” she shot back and my brows furrowed. “You are a very handsome man, your majesty, you don’t even realize the number of maids who wish for a moment with you. Apparently it is a rite of passage for kings and princes to have many mistresses but you have religiously stayed by your mate. It is as endearing as it is annoying. You were a challenge that I wanted to conquer and conquer I did.”

She smirked and I saw the evil glint in her eyes. I knew she wasn’t telling the complete truth but there was some iota of honesty in her words. She truly did see me as a challenge but whether or not she conquered me was yet to be seen.

“We didn’t have sex,” I stated simply and she pursed her lips.

“Even inebriated you wouldn’t go against your mate. You called out to her a few times and when you realized I wasn’t her, you wouldn’t touch me but do you want to know the beautiful thing about the body?” she asked and I hesitated before nodding. “Our bodies are just a bunch of nerves and it doesn’t matter if you want it or not, certain things can happen. It wasn’t exactly hard to get you in the mood.”

“That’s a lie,” I cut her off. “You have a tell when you lie and you are lying right out of your teeth. Why don’t you tell me what really happened and how you got me to be so out of it?”

She looked pis sed at the fact that I had called out her bluff. She crossed her arms over her chest and refused to look at me again. The thing was, I was done playing her game.

I was done doing things her way. If she wanted to come into my home and mess things up, I was going to make sure that she answered to me.
