SLEEP, LITTLE ONE, SAVE your energy.

As if.

Thoughts of his parting remarks swirled through her mind all night. The bed smelled of him. Her body ached in a delicious, addictive way so that every movement reminded Ella of his hands on her flesh, Elon’s hardness and strength. When she wasn’t thinking about the way he’d pleasured her, Ella’s mind was ticking over the whirlwind of the last twenty four hours and the fact she was about to be transformed from ‘the Illegitimate Princess’ to Emira of this powerful country.

She’d barely got to grips with life in Mosar, though her brother had instituted a sort of immersion training, sending Ella to a kind of ‘royalty school’ in the form of tutors who came each morning to educate her in the ways of the country, governance, diplomacy and the history of the region. Courtesy of that, she didn’t feel so completely panicked by the idea of serving as a Queen to these people.

She’d fought against the idea of marriage to Elon but somehow that had changed, and so quickly.

Heat flushed her body as she pinpointed exactly what had changed.

Sex.

The feeling of euphoria that came from being touched and kissed by him, by being made love to by him. She felt a rush of giddy, overpowering pleasure but there was worry there too. Worry about how out of her depth she was with him. Worry about what would happen when his sexual interest in her waned – as surely it must. Why else would a man like him still be single? Worry about what she’d do in a loveless marriage with a husband who was no longer interested in her.

She tossed and turned, but sleep continued to evade Ella and a future with so many unanswered questions haunted her. The sun rose over Salim early, and she gave up on even trying to sleep, pushing the covers back and moving to the window. Her eyes found the mountain range, her heart thundering at the significance of Elon’s cabin there. The sun rose and she tried to focus on this one day in time – not the thousands that would follow and what they might bring.
