  "I don't care about the roles in your society, I have feelings and they should matter, especially if we are supposed to be married." Helena stood nose to nose with him now, her breasts heaving in frustration as she pushed a hand against his chest in frustration.

  "Helena..." Aris growled at her when she thumped his chest with her fist. "You are asking for trouble."

  "Yeah? I was already in trouble the moment you found me and decided to claim me." She hissed at him and then whirled to walk away from him.

  "Don't you dare turn your back on me like that!" Aris told her grabbing her arm. "You might be my wife to be, but you will not act this disrespectful to me when you are losing an argument."

  "This is not disrespectful; this is me walking away before I say something I regret." Helena tried to shake his arm off, but he wouldn't budge. "No one is here to see this, you can drop the act and be yourself around me Aris, I'm not going to judge you for showing emotion and no one else will dare stand up to you, I have to support you in public, should I keep my mouth shut in private when I disagree with you too? Do you want a doll that has no brain in her head? Because I have a working brain and it has feelings and thoughts that affect my actions."

  Aris stared at her mouth for a second and then crushed her lips with his own. Helena was too shocked to move, her stomach clenched and his hand roughly grabbed one of her breasts through her dress. Backing her up into the wall, he pressed her there so she could feel his hard cock through his pants.

  Finally, he lifted his head and looked down at her. "Is that enough of a reaction for you?"

  "Yes, but it's not the reaction I was expecting." Helena whispered, her eyes wide as she looked up at him.

  "Believe me; I wanted to spend time alone with you. Making love to you next to the water at the lake crossed my mind more than once; I'm irritated that our plans were changed too. But he is King. He ordered us to have lunch with him and we cannot refuse. You need to be on your best behavior or I will spank you, am I clear?" Aris said his voice hard and his hand on her arm tightened painfully.

  "You wouldn't dare," Helena said, her eyes getting even bigger. He'd never laid a hand on her yet, and now he was threatening to spank her. She wasn't sure if she was aroused by the idea of his palm hitting her bottom, or offended that he'd treat her like a child.

  Aris caught something on her face that gave her thoughts away. "You like that don't you? The idea of me stripping you naked and putting you over my knee, one hand holding you down while the other hand touches your bare skin."

  His voice was husky and the imagery left Helena's imagination leaping into overdrive.

  "No," Helena said, but it sounded like a lie even to herself.

  Pinning her into the wall and putting a hand on either side of her head, Aris dipped his head again and pressed his hard body against her soft curvy one. He thrust his tongue between her lips and rubbed his hips up against hers, showing her exactly how she was affecting him.

  "Don't keep me waiting much longer Helena, this little power game you have going on controlling when we have sex won't work much longer. I'm a patient man, but you are playing with fire teasing me." Aris told her.

  "I want you, I won't lie about that, but I need more than sex, Aris. I want you to love me." Helena told him and then lowered her gaze feeling embarrassed that she admitted the truth to him.

  Aris froze and then abruptly released her. Giving his head a shake as if he didn't quite understand her words he took a few steps back from her.

  "We will talk later, for now, get ready for lunch with my father." Aris gave her a hard look. "Don't do anything to upset him."

  "I won't," Helena promised him, realizing that he had completely avoided the subject when she mentioned love.

  She watched him walk away and she realized that seducing him and getting him to admit his love for her would be a lot more challenging than she thought it would be. He had feelings for her, she could tell every time the two of them got in the same room together.

  The energy of their attraction all but crackled in the air when they were within two feet of each other. Apparently, according to Cindy, the servants and slaves were betting on who admitted their love first.

  Helena shook her head and sighed.

  She needed a strategy.

  Chapter 7

  The King was watching Helena carefully as they ate their lunch together at the long table. It was empty but for the three of them, though servants hovered around the room, quick to refill water and wine goblets, and refill plates if needed.

  "So, it appears you and Aris are getting along for the most part." Hydan said watching the two of them.

  Helena said her fork down and looked at him. "He and I are figuring this out."

  "Do you love him?" Hydan asked her bluntly, and Aris choked on his wine and started to sputter.

  "I could. But he makes it so difficult." Helena said, shrugging. She blushed but she refused to lie. If this was going to work, honesty was the best policy.

  "You know, I'm right here you two, you don't need to talk about me like I can't hear you." Aris grumbled at the two of them before putting a bite of meat in his mouth.

  "He does, doesn't he?" The King said grinning at Helena, before he started to have a coughing fit.

  Alarmed, Aris jumped out of his chair and went to his father who waved him away.

  "Sit down boy, there's nothing you can do to fix it." His father looked at him and wiped the blood from his lips with his napkin before he finished the rest of his lunch.

  Helena watched the concern on Aris's face and realized that he wasn't the mask of immovable emotions that he often tried to pretend he was. He had a heart in that chest of his, and it was his upbringing that emotions were weakness that had taught him not to show them.

  She wondered if she could teach him that showing emotion took strength, and being able to own them was a valuable asset that could be used as a leader to show compassion and gain trust to his people. Then again, maybe their emotions didn't work like that and she was barking up the wrong tree entirely. She still had so much to learn about their culture.

  "Have you guys mated yet?" Hydan asked the two of them bluntly.

  Helena dropped her fork to her plate in a loud clatter and stared at him in shock at his nosiness and abruptness.

  "Not yet. I'm allowing Helena to decide when she feels she's ready, I won't force her, everything else in her life is out of her control, and I felt it was a courtesy I could afford to offer her." Aris explained quietly looking a little embarrassed.

  "So you do have feelings for her then, normally you wouldn't care." The King raised an eyebrow at the two of them and then shook his head. "You are both idiots."

  Aris exchanged a look with Helena but he didn't reply to his father, eating lunch in relative silence, they ended up chatting about what Helena had learned so far, and how she felt about the upcoming wedding in a few weeks.

  "I guess I'm as prepared as I'll ever be." She told the King.

  "I need to send Aris on a diplomatic mission; he will be gone for a while and, provided everything goes well, should return in plenty of time for the wedding. We have military support with surrounding planets in case of an invasion and Aris needs to go there and resign the treaty paperwork as our new leader." The King announced.

  "When do I leave?" Aris asked his father.

  "In two days time." Coughing in the middle of talking he covered his mouth with a napkin and then drank some water before continuing. "Spend the night together, get to know each other more intimately, I need the two of you to stop lollygagging around and push this relationship forward. Enough is enough."

  "Is that a direct order father?" Aris asked drily, not sounding amused.

  "Absolutely." The King said grinning and then winked at Helena, who had the good grace to blush, knowing exactly what he was implying.

  She looked over at Aris who wouldn't meet her gaze.

  Chapter 8

  "I know my father ordered us to sp
end the night together in my bed Helena, but we don't have to do anything you don't want to do. I promised you I wouldn't force you, and I intend to keep my promise." He whispered as she lay against the covers of his bed and he was reclining next to her.

  "I'm not scared of being intimate with you Aris; I just want it to be more than sex." She said.

  "I won't lie to you. Right now, sex is exactly what it would be. When we get married, you'll be my mate, and eventually we'll have babies. That's the point of sex." He said, sounding logical.

  "But about sex for fun? Sex to show that we have emotions and feelings besides making babies? What about because we simply like each other and it's a nice way to express our emotions without words?" She said sitting up feeling agitated with him now.

  "Relax Helena; I understand sex is more than making babies. What I'm trying to say to you is I won't lie to you. I feel affection for you. I like you most of the time, even when you stand up to me and irritate me. I respect the fact that you are willing to submit to me in public, even if you take me to task in private. But love? I don't even know what love is supposed to feel like, so how would I promise you something or admit to something I can't feel, or don't feel?" Aris told her and started to touch her shoulder lightly with his finger tips. "Sex between us will be good, we clearly are compatible chemistry wise, and can't that be enough for now?"

  "I know you can do whatever you want, but promise me you will be faithful to me. No other women, if you expect me not to go outside of our marriage, I want the same promise from you. If you can't love me, at least promise me the courtesy of being committed to us as a couple." Helena said.

  "You do realize that even though my father professed to love my mother he had slaves on the side for his pleasure? You are asking me to do something that goes against our culture, and traditions." Aris said, feeling surprised.

  "I understand that, but if I must remain faithful to you, would you at least consider doing it for me?" She said blinking back tears. "Knowing you'll be with other women while I stand here quietly will kill me inside. I'll hate you, and I don't want to hate you Aris, whatever I'm starting to feel for you is good, and I want to keep it that way."

  Aris was shocked at his reaction to her emotions, he wanted to comfort her, and reassure her, and while he hadn't been with another woman since he'd brought her from the ship to his rooms, he wasn't sure he wanted to make a promise when he didn't know what his future would bring.

  "I will consider it, but I make no promises right now." Aris told her, he gathered her in his arms and rested his chin on her head thinking about the situation.

  Helena didn't push. Getting that much out of him was a big feat, and she realized that if he'd at least think about it, he cared deeper for her than he admitted to himself. No man who had the ability to sleep with other women would give up that right, or even think about it if he didn't care for the woman he was with.

  Satisfied with his answer, she leaned up and kissed him.

  Aris kissed her back, pressing her back against the bed. She initiated it, and he took it as a sign of her consent for him to push their relationship forward. Until tonight, he'd been the one who kept kissing her, and while she'd always responded, she'd been the one to pull away or stop him.

  He trailed one of his hands down her shoulder to her chest and fondled her breast through her silk nightgown, massaging the large lobe roughly. His lips fit over hers and he pressed his leg over hers into the bed, to hold her still.

  He liked to be in charge.

  Helena submitted to him, letting him lead, her tongue mixing with his, sighing against his mouth as his palm and fingers played with her breasts. The feel of his leg pushing her into the bed made her stomach clench and she could picture in her mind what it would feel like to have him on top of her, pressing his weight against her.

  Aris started to untie the laces on her nightgown, opening up the front and baring her skin to him. His fingers skimmed against her gently, making her shiver as he went from her breast to her belly button and then back up to pay attention to the other breast.

  He broke their kiss and started kissing down her neck and shoulders, until he reached her pink nipples with his lips. Sucking a delicate nipple into his mouth he rolled it between his teeth and scraped her skin gently, making her stomach burn with the fire he was building in her.

  "Aris..." Helena gasped when he moved his hand between her legs and started touching her thighs with his large hand. His fingers brushed against her skin until they moved to touch her clit and rubbed it delicately with his finger tips as he continued to play with her breasts.

  Rubbing her pussy with his hand, and her clit with his fingers he stroked her until she let her head fall back and she was moaning in the pillows.

  Aris took his time, knowing she was a virgin and that their first time often required a little more patience to prepare them for sex to make sure it was a good experience. He didn't want her scared of sex with him.

  Spreading her lips gently, he slowly started to insert a single finger inside of her, stretching her and wiggling it around to let her get used to the sensation of something inside. His palm bumped against her clit as he played with her and he leaned back up to capture his mouth with his to keep her busy.

  Helena shivered against him; her body felt like it was on fire. His lips were wet and his tongue was strong in her mouth. His arms made her feel trapped and his hand was creating a burning fire in her belly that made her want to grind her hips up against him and beg for more.

  As he continued to stroke her and play with her body, Helena gave in to the sensations he was building, and felt her lower body grow wet with desire, coating his hand and her thighs. The rubbing on her clit had her thrashing her head side to side after he moved away from her mouth and started to nibble and suck on her breasts again.

  Grabbing the blankets in her fists, she spread her legs wider for him as he inserted a second finger and felt herself gush around his hand as her legs started to shake and her insides quivered with her release.

  She let out a loud moan that sounded almost like his name as she thrust her hips hard against his hands as her orgasm surprised her. Seeing colors behind her eyes as she had them tightly closed, she'd never felt anything like this before. She was breathing hard when she could finally open them again and her body was still humming from the left over endorphins that he'd inspired in her.

  "I'm going to take you now." Aris said whispering in her ear, "Watching you cum on my hand was amazing, Helena, and now I'm going to fill you up and claim you as my mate."

  Helena shuddered at his words but spread her legs wider as he climbed on top of her. His heavy weight pressing her into the bed made it hard for her to move, but she could feel his muscles in his limbs and when he reached down to grab his cock with one hand and guide it to her opening, she tried to force herself to relax.

  She knew the first time could hurt, but tensing would make it worse.

  He slipped the tip of his penis between the lips and then leaned down to kiss her, not moving his hips yet. He was gigantic and rock hard, Helena realized he was a lot bigger than a couple of fingers and she vaguely wondered if he'd even fit.

  Aris kissed her hard and thrust into her in one deep push as his tongue tangled with hers.

  Helena felt a burning sensation, and gasped, her initial reaction was to pull away, but he had her trapped there, the pain shocked her and she cried a small noise into his mouth.

  He didn't move, but just held still and continued to kiss her. When he felt her body start to relax under him and her hands came up to tangle in his hair and touch his back, he started to rock his hips and slowly slide in and out of her. Lifting his head, he looked down into her eyes and smiled.

  She lay there, breathless, and beautiful, her hair was tangled on his pillows and sheets and she looked up at him with trusting eyes. His little slave was a spitfire inside and while they argued in private, she showed him the respect he requested in public.

  Hi
s feelings for her disturbed him, just as trying to focus on her beautiful breasts instead of the worry of how loving her might make him a weaker man. He ignored those thoughts and focused on the way her insides milked his cock and squeezed him as he slid in and out of her.

  He pressed kisses to her neck and shoulders, nibbling with his teeth and leaving little bites across her skin. She shivered and moaned, pressing her hips up against him, encouraging him.

  Helena could feel his groin rubbing against her clit every time he'd pull out and slide back in. He was being gentle, and he was huge and it still felt like she was stretched to the ripping point, but it didn't hurt anymore. It had her moaning and writhing against him, wanting him to push her to the point of seeing stars again.

  Aris took his time making love to her, he wasn't in a hurry and he liked watching her cum. Playing with her breasts and letting her hands explore his body, he could feel when her stomach muscles got tighter, and her pussy started to contract around him. She was close to an orgasm.

  "Cum for me Helena, I want to feel it," He demanded in her ear, in a hot, husky whisper.

  Helena wrapped her legs around his waist and gave into the sensations he was creating in her. She closed her eyes and tilted her head back, when his mouth came against her neck in a firm pressure with his lips and nibbling teeth she felt her body tense up and the flood gates open. Letting out a loud howl, she bucked against him as her orgasm ripped through in intensity that she'd never felt before.

  Aris feeling Helena cum against him set him over the edge, he groaned loudly and joined her as his own release caused him to tense up and jerk inside her as he spilled his seed.

  A few moments later, both of them breathless and sweaty, Aris rolled off the top of her and pulled her into his arms and rested his chin against her head.

  Soon, her even breathing told him she was asleep and he lay there thinking about everything over the last few months.
