One night with the King - Chapter 111：112. The ring

Monica opened her eyes to find Lucius staring down at her with a broad smile on his face.

She closed her eyes immediately, her cheeks flushed. She still feared that it was all just a dream and yesterday never happened.

She never imagined that one day she would wake up in the arms of a handsome King who actually loved her enough to stare at her while she slept.

“Good Morning Mate…” Lucius sang, a low laughter erupted from his throat when he noticed how shy Monica was feeling.

Monica grinned but refused to open her eyes again. She felt so embarrassed_why was she blushing so hard she thought, angry at herself.

She closed her eyes with her hands and turned the other way so that Lucius could no longer see her blush.

“I’m going to tickle you.” Lucius threatened. Monica could not help but laugh. She finally opened her eyes even though she still felt flutters in her stomach.

It was as if a thousand butterflies had taken their home in her belly. She wanted to scream on the top of her lungs, she was feeling so happy.

Lucius took a sit by her side before she could even blink. Monica doubted if she would ever get used to his speed. One second he was here and in the next he was somewhere else even before she could blink.

He used his right hand to brush strands of hair away from her face drinking in her look. “You look even more beautiful in the morning.” He smiled.

“You flatter me.” Monica blushed.

She wanted to close her eyes with her hands again but she found that she wanted to see him. He was breathtaking.

She was not a morning person like most humans her age so she still wanted to sleep even though she doubted if she could with all the happiness she was feeling.

“I’m still feeling sleepy.” She purred.

Lucius chuckled and placed her head on his chest. “Sleep on me.”

He sang softly in her ears, his voice a tender whisper. She closed her eyes to enjoy better the beautiful sound of his voice.

She really tried to go back to sleep but no matter how she tried, sleep would not come.

Five minutes later she opened her eyes, finding it impossible to sleep.

She kept feeling his eyes on her. When her eyes were closed she felt his gaze on her like a touch on her skin. The feelings it caused her to have were impossible to control.

His hands moved up and down her body and she shivered from his touch although it was his eyes on her that caused her to feel even more uncomfortable.

It was like he was stripping her of her skin. As if he was staring into her soul.

“Its bad to stare in the human world Lucius.” Monica blushed covering her face with the pillow.

“Luckily I’m not human.” He smirked. He removed the pillow from her face then took her right hand In his and kissed it. ” I want to give you something.”

“Food hopefully.” She drawled sitting upright.

Lucius chuckled. “No this. Food will come soon. My queen deserves it all even the best dishes.” He grinned pulling on her cheeks.

Lucius put his hands in his pant pocket and Brought out a ring. It was made of diamond and ruby. It had both the Modern and ancient glow to it. Mysterious and classy.

He put the ring on her ring finger and kissed it. All the while Monica never stopped smiling. Tears stained her eyes as she watches him slip the ring into her finger.
