Chapter 361 – Adaline, The Queen – III

By the end of the day, her feet hurt with the amount of distance she had walked and for the amount of time she had been standing. 

The distance that she had walked was not much but only in the ballroom that they had later shifted in, for food, and then how continuously she had to stand to meet people and introduce herself and to be introduced to them. 

The introductions and food carried on until the moon finally rose in the dark sky. It had become a habit for Adaline to watch the moon if she was awake at night and if she compared the moon to those nights and this one, this one was far more beautiful and there was something about it that made today special. 

“My love,” Xavier touched her shoulder and lightly rubbed his hands over her upper arms, “it’s time.” 

She gulped nervously before she gave him a nod. Suddenly, Adaline became aware of how the room had fallen silent and felt every eye on her. 

As if being aware of the fact that they were going to listen to them was not enough, they all were now watching them too. 

Taking his hand in hers, they walked out of the room together. Somehow this situation seems to be more daunting than any of what she had ever been in.

Her heart pounded so loudly in her chest like never before even though she had done the same thing with him probably a hundred times. 

Was this performance anxiety? 

“Why are you nervous, Adaline?” Xavier spoke in a gentle tone as if talking to an alarmed animal. 

“I..” she gulped, “I don’t know.” 

“You are afraid that people would hear you,” he said and she glanced at him. “I know it has been bugging you since you know about it.” 

She shrugged, not really wanting to hide it since it was already out. “Why do we have to make the people listen to it anyway?”

“I can’t explain it to you because it is something that comes from deep within,” He chuckled at irritated face on that response. ” But what I can tell you is, it signifies that the park is not being cheated, that the heir would be here soon and that finally the alpha and the Luna are one.” 

“Maybe, also because we are animals and we do not shy away from it.” 

She chuckled. That was true. 

Even though they had been on the lowest floor of the palace and had to go to the one at the top where Xavier had his room, the journey would usually be quite long but this time it was shorter than she would have liked. 

She gulped again when they turned to the hallway where his room was. The huge wooden doors to his room made her almost milk in anxiety. 

Why did the world have to hear them in particular? 

For a second she was about to turn back and forget about all of this or maybe question back, but then the weight of the Crown that had been on her head for the entire day increased and made its presence known. 

They were still walking to the door when she reached over and touched the jewels. That was a crown and that we rested on her head. From the huge windows on the wall, she could see the moon wherever she went as if trying to provide her comfort she needed. 

Adaline’s hand remained on the jewel and she nodded at the moon. 

The Crown was on her head for a reason and having sex with Xavier was the least of what she could do. 

So she was going to pull her big girl panties on. 

The two guards standing beside the doors opened them for the couple. It was then she let out a shuddering breath and tried to calm herself down before she stopped in the middle of the bedroom. 

She found at the dressing table a very small one of the first things to take the heavy Crown off of her head. 

It might look pretty without the diamonds and emeralds but it was heavy! 

At the same time, the Crown of the king was placed next to her and she felt his presence right next to her. The warmth that his body would have made her shudder when she caught onto it. 

She felt his fingers over her shoulders and he parted her hair over her left shoulder before touching the buttons of her dress, “May I?” 

She nodded. 

His fingers gently undid the buttons over her back and she continue to breathe heavily before finally, he undid the last one. The cold air hit her back and she could feel the goosebumps forming all over her body. 

His finger slid over her naked back and Adaline exhaled softly, relishing the feeling of his hands on her. 

“Turn around, my queen,” 

Queen, he said queen. 

She turned around and he joined their foreheads together. “I want to make this special for you, Adaline but it is hard to control.” 

“Then don’t,” her words were immediate. “Dont control, Xavier. Not after so long.” 

To make sure that he understood, she grabbed the back of the dress before pulling them away and sliding out of it. The dress pooled at her dress and she stood in front of him, a piece of cotton covering her nether regions. 

She raised herself on her toes and met his mouth halfway before kissing him like she had been yearning to. This time, no matter how hard Xavier tried, she did not let him win his battle. Today was her day. 

Her breasts pushed plush against his hard and clothed chest making her sigh in frustration. “You are wearing too many clothes,” she grumbled before reaching over and ripping his buttons off. He chuckled at her impatience and his eyes watched the rise and fall of her chest. Those perky nipples always took his attention. 

Fuck, he smiled, he was going to suck to them.
