A small shiver of disgust shot through me, but I couldn't deny that the sparks his hands were creating felt damn good.

"She is... very beautiful, I will give her that." The king bought his thumb up to examine the wound on my forehead caused by my running away. "Her defiant attitude however, had better subside immediately, or there will be consequences... Queen or not." My breath hitched in my thre he spoke, his eyes glaring into my own as he continued his check.
