Punish me
This was the first time Evie exposed her naked body to a man, and madness of the first man seeing her naked being the crown prince was not lost on her. She had never expected this moment to come but now, here they were, and even though she had every opportunity to change her mind and turn back, she did not want to.
She was lifted onto him and her legs wrapped around his waist, her arms still safely stored around his neck and her lips… Her lips were locked on to his.
The water flooded to the sides as he entered the tub, bringing her along with him. Despite her previous proved talents for giving him orders, it was now quite obvious that he was the one in charge. Evie did not mind that one bit.
If it was the water surrounding them or the heat of his body that finally began to warm her body, she could not say for sure. A bit of both, perhaps. Either way she was no longer trembling from the cold. However, she was still very much trembling – from his touch.
“I know what I want.” She whispered softly against his lips. “And I want you.” Title or no title, she wanted him. She wanted Milo.

Jasper did not know much of Lady Andrea or her personality, but he had never thought her naive. In fact, he had always thought of her as the complete opposite of a naive woman. But, when she spoke of the king and doubted his punishment, Jasper realised that he might have been mistaken.
“Perhaps.” He nodded. “But he will blame me regardless. He cannot punish the queen, but he can punish me.” The king would not let this mishap go unpunished and even if he did see that the fault laid with the queen, Jasper would be the one to take the hit. He only wished that the queen had thought of that before snatching the letter from his hands. But this was the life of a servant. They did not matter.
“With every right, of course.” He added, not to be disrespectful. No, he would never question the king or say anything remotely bad about him, even if he did end up losing his job.
“But I am sure he won’t blame you, My Lady.” Lady Andrea was the only one certain to escape his fury because she’d had nothing to do with it.
