“Sametanira?” Did you hear me?

Rayyan cursed under his breath when he realized he had let his thoughts drift away from the meeting, and even worse was the fact that the Emir Sheikh had caught him doing it.

“Maehdina.” I’m sorry.

A frown marred Khalil’s forehead as he studied the other man. It was unlike Rayyan at all to be distracted, and yet in the past few months, that was exactly the way the kingdom’s finance chief had been acting.

“Do you want to talk about it?” he asked finally.

“La.” No.

Khalil had expected as much, and when he joined his wife in bed that night, he was disconcerted to hear Harper voicing the same concerns he had. “Don’t you think something’s going on with Rayyan?”

Rolling his wife to her back, Khalil gazed down at his queen with a scowl of mock distrust. “Should I be concerned that you are thinking of another man while you’re in bed with me?”

Harper rolled her eyes. “I’m serious.” She gave him a little push, and the king obliged her silent command, allowing her to reverse their positions and letting her roll on top of him. “He normally bites my head off for the smallest of things, but these days...”

Smoothing the lines on her forehead, he said quietly, “It’s how he is.” He paused. “Or rather – and you will never hear any of us saying this in Rayyan’s presence – it is what his parents forced him to be.”

Harper sat up in surprise. “Princess Rowena or Prince Anthony?”

“Both.” Pushing himself up, the king leaned against the headboard and pulled his wife to his side. “They’re good parents...”

“But they make better politicians?” She barely knew the couple, but what she had read about them was enough to tell her they would never win any parenting awards.

“There’s no question about how much they love Rayyan, but work always come first with them.” Khalil’s tone was flat. “What’s worse is how they’ve done their best to shape Rayyan’s mind similarly. Even when we were young, Rayyan had never been the type to get into trouble. He was the perfect son, the perfect student, the perfect prince – he knew that if he made the smallest mistake, people would blame it on his parents’ absence, which would then prevent them from doing their duty.”

“And God forbid that happens, right?” Harper asked sarcastically.

“Rayyan would have considered it a personal failure if his parents were made to appear neglectful.”

“Which they actually were,” Harper grumbled. “Right?”

“I’m only telling you this so you can understand...”

“Not to bother asking him if he’s fine,” Harper finished for her husband.

“Because aside from making him clamp up even more, it will also make your liege and lord—-”

“Ha!”

“Jealous and possessive—-”

Harper gasped as her husband suddenly lifted her up from his side. “With the way you’re spending too much time worrying about another man—-”

A moment later, he had lowered her onto him, and she let out another gasp as she found herself suddenly impaled on Khalil’s throbbing manhood.

“K-Khalil...”

Her head fell back, and
