Palace- Alanna and Georges Room

His lips were soft and she could feel his hands moving down from her face, tracing her jawline then moving from her shoulders down to her waist where he left them circling her waist.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door removing them from their trance. Reluctantly George broke the kiss moving his hands from her waist to open the door.

"Yes," he said to the page at his door.

"The Queen Thayet would like you to meet her in her study as soon as possible," the page replied then waited for an answer.

George checked with Alanna to make sure she didn't mind him leaving in the middle of their romantic moment. She nodded in reply with a smirk on her face, finding it amusing to be interrupted at such an intimate moment.

"Tell her I'll be down to see her once I'm ready," he replied remembering that he wasn't quite fully dressed. The page nodded in response then hurried off to deliver the message to Thayet.

"Well that was a little awkward," George said looking down at how he was dressed in nothing more than breeches and boots. Alanna just giggled and looked down at what she was wearing, a filmy night shift that was quite short.

"Better get ready," she said teasingly. "You don't want to make the 'Queen' angry"

He just grinned at her and pulled a shirt over his head covering up his well-toned stomach.

Palace Thayet's Study

"George," she said in an even tone, practicing how to greet him when her entered.

"George," she said in a slightly higher pitched voice.

"George," she said in a flat, dull tone.

She heard footsteps approaching; it's him she thought her heart racing slightly faster than usual.

"Thayet," he said with a smile on his face.

"George," she replied coolly. Nailed it she thought.

"You wanted to talk to me about something," he said prompting her.

That's right she thought. He was walking towards her making her suddenly excited, all thoughts of what she was going to talk about flying out the door. He stopped before her, a metre distance between them. He was so close, if she put out her arm she could touch him. He smiled at her feeling slightly awkward with her prolonged silence.

"Um," she said feeling slightly giddy by his presence.

She was a beautiful woman, he thought to himself looking at her in the light from the window. Jon was a lucky man.

She suddenly had the urge to kiss him and didn't know what had come over her, making her feel this way. Without thinking she stepped forward covering the ground between them then pressed her lips against his, melding her body against with his own. At first he was shocked by Thayet's sudden show of love and didn't respond, but then kissed back overcome by her beauty. Her hands held his face and trailed his jawline and she could feel his hands hanging loosely around her waist.

Alanna was walking down the corridor to Thayet's study. She wanted Thayet to come and help her come dress shopping for tonight's ball, as she wasn't allowed to wear a dress twice. As she walked silently towards the door she saw that it was partly closed, George is probably there she thought to herself. As she reached the door she peeked inside to make sure she wasn't interrupting as she didn't have to knock, and quietly gasped in shock. Right there in front of her was her best friend kissing her husband. Alanna ran down the corridor and out into the gardens, until a rather worried looking Jonathan stopped her and grabbed her shoulder to steady her.

"What happened," he said looking, searching her eyes and taking in her tear stained face. Then the tears poured and the words gushed out.

"They were there together," she sobbed. "He had his hands on her waist and they were kissing."

"Who," he asked, having a suspicion as to where this was leading.

"George," she whispered. "And Thayet."

He felt as if he'd just been punched in the stomach.

"I'm sorry Jon," she said crying into his shirt. "I'm so sorry."

"It's not your fault," he mumbled into her hair holding her close.

After a while she stopped crying and just stood there enjoying his embrace and what comfort he gave. He looked down at her and felt a tingle travel up his spine and remembered what it was like when they were together. Unsure of what he was doing he lifted her face upwards towards him and kissed her gently on the lips, surprised by her instant reaction. She put her arms around his neck crossed loosely at the wrists pulling him closer towards her, their bodies already pressing against each other. He deepened the kiss and flicked his tongue inside her slightly parted mouth. She responded by returning the action. His hands travelled down her body and rested around her waist, his left hand travelling just slightly lower. Suddenly he broke the kiss and looked at her with a look she hadn't seen since the second time she refused his proposal.

"I love you," he whispered. She flushed, she wasn't supposed to feel this way about him he was married and so was she, but then everything had changed because of George and Thayet.

So she replied, "I love you too."

They both smiled at each other and he kissed her again, then picked her up and took her to a private room where no one would find them. They then both knew that they still cared deeply and passionately for each other, and the matter of George and Thayet no longer mattered.
