Chapter 5
Alexia
It was like the weight of a thousand suns, it burned, it hurt, but it warmed my whole body like a clearing on a cold night.
Estevan moved inside me slowly, it was as if my walls were tearing, yet I held on, I could feel the pleasure amidst the pain as the real Charlotte said that probably, if he was gentle, I would feel pleasure from the first act and wouldn't want to stop until I had the second orgasm.
Estevan groaned when I dug my nails further into his back, nails that I didn't even have because they were always properly cut now, I felt the need to grab him, to squeeze him without understanding how I had had such a connection, so much desire and fire that I had never felt before, Estevan's sculpted body seemed like a magnet, a lure that I loved to run my hand over.
Daring, daring, I felt that I had stripped off much more than my clothes by lying on that bed, Estevan didn't even know that I wasn't the real Charlotte and that when he called out to her, he reminded me that we weren't married and that I was a sinner.
How had I plunged so quickly into this madness, completely bathed in lust and desire with an unknown man of whom I knew his fame, I moaned loudly as I felt a new wave of pleasure, Estevan increased his thrusts, he seemed wilder and that instigated me, I felt the urge to push him away as the pleasure increased, I was going crazy.
His sweat mixed with mine soaked the sheets, Estevan's face was insane, I kissed him and spread my legs wider to welcome him, he lifted my leg almost to the top of his head, I didn't even know I was that flexible.
I allowed myself to let out a loud scream as I felt my whole body explode, and as if that would spur him on, he groaned loudly, releasing all the adrenaline from his body, something warm filling me from the inside, I looked up to look at him and he fell onto my chest in a hug, then fell onto his side and looked up at the ceiling, completely bathed in sweat and unable to believe what I had done so naturally, I looked up at the ceiling too and imagined the stars.
The stars were the most incredible thing in the world to me.
I didn't know what else to do, but I felt completely relaxed and tired. Estevan turned towards me, leaning his head on his hand and looked at my naked body. I automatically felt embarrassed and pulled back the sheets.
"There's no need to be embarrassed, we're husband and wife now."
I parted my lips, I felt bad for pretending to be someone else, but I couldn't stop now, so I smiled and shook my head, as if he liked my gesture, he came closer, put his arm around my head and very close, spoke:
"What do you like to do?"
"What I like to do..." I repeated his words, it was difficult to have free time, but I could remember walks in the fresh air when I could get away, they were the best moments of the day "I like to go hiking."
"On horseback?"
"No, I don't know how to ride a horse."
He frowned and fixed his head a little, paying more attention.
"Didn't you learn to ride when you were five?"
My chest froze, my heart rate increased.
"I said I don't know how to ride, right?" I said, trying to buy time, and looking for a way out of the situation I continued, "I meant I don't like it, I'm sorry."
He nodded.
"I think you're the first person I've met who doesn't like horse riding"
"Maybe I'm different" My words seem to have made Estevan even more curious.
"What languages do you speak?"
I knew that pretending to be Princess Charlotte wouldn't be easy, I knew her, I spent more time with her than anyone else, but I was forgetting to pretend to be her, something I couldn't do, be myself and tell the truth.
I knew Estevan would be interested to know what the princess had learned, I had to roll over and lie, pretend I knew everything she knew to look like a princess or he wouldn't swallow it and from the looks of it, he had done his homework, he already knew a few things about the princess.
"I speak five languages, but I think you already knew that." I said confidently and he nodded, lightly smoothing the outline of my arms as he looked at me with an indecipherable expression "You tried to find out about me, but I didn't have time to find out about you. I want you to tell me who you are."
Estevan looked into my eyes, there was a kind of glint in them that I had never seen before.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Like what?" He asked, and I could have sworn he was fascinated by that glow, by the glide of the curve of his lips as he ran his hands down my back and close to my breasts.
I felt incredible when he touched me, as he slid his fingers along my skin, so this was what it felt like to be caressed.
"I can't tell, what are you thinking?"
"That you're interesting, not like they told me."
"I haven't heard the best things about you."
He opened his lips to speak, but a knock on the door made me stiffen. Estevan looked at the door.
"Whatever it is, go away," he shouted at the door. "I said I didn't want to be interrupted.
"Forgive me, Your Highness, but the Viscount of the Northern Isles is here."
Estevan's muscles stiffened, I noticed. I sat down on the bed, covering my breasts with the blanket, and watched as he walked around the room hurriedly getting dressed.
"What happened?"
"Nothing, darling, don't worry" He approached me and kissed my forehead, taking me by surprise "I'll be right back."
Estevan closed the door abruptly, leaving me alone with my thoughts and my curiosity. I got up and grabbed my wedding clothes, putting them on quickly, determined to go after him.
When I looked down the corridor it was empty, long corridors I didn't know, I walked with difficulty and almost fell over because of the heels I wasn't used to walking in.
"How can anyone walk with that thing?" I asked myself out loud and kept walking.
I reached the stairs and realized I wouldn't find him. I was about to turn around and go back to my room, afraid I'd keep walking and get lost in the corridors, but a loud, metallic sound made me stop.
I looked down at the stairs where the rattling sounds were coming from, something was pushing me forward, I had to go down those stairs even though I was scared.
I reached a large courtyard in the middle of the castle that opened onto the starry sky, I looked up to admire the stars and then the sound of chains became louder.
I looked around frightened by the loud dragging sound of the chains, and a stronger wind seemed to be blowing at my back.
I felt a strong presence, heat emanating, something out of the ordinary. I turned around slowly and even in the dim light I saw the glint of scales in a vivid brown hue.
I was afraid to move, my whole body froze while my heart felt like it was about to explode. He lowered his head close to me and it was as if his eyes were looking into my soul.
"Hi, I'm not going to do anything to you" I said, raising my hands slowly, cautiously as he continued to stare at me.
And if...
I lowered my hand a little, slowly, in order to get closer to the dragon, who was staring at me with his eyes focused. I was just about to touch it when I heard Estevan's voice.
"Charlotte, don't!" he shouted and I turned sharply, heard the chains dragging again and turned to look at the dragon who was already on his feet, he puffed out his chest and I took two steps back in fright, I didn't want to die, it wasn't then that I saw the flames.
