The reporter shifted in her seat as she scrambled to find her list of prepared questions on her messy notepad,
'So, your majesty, we understand that your daughter will not be taking the throne?'
'That is correct, Rey has...chosen a different path.'
'How do you feel about that?'
'I was saddened at first, but I support her decision. As her father, my number one priority is her happiness.'
'We understand that the Princess wants to remain out of the public eye?'
'Yes, that's right, at the moment we are not divulging her location. Right now, she needs her privacy and we are respecting that.'
'Is there any truth to the rumours that the Princess fell in love with her former head of security Kylo Ren?'
'I can't comment on that.'
'Is there any truth to the rumour that Princess Rey was heavily involved in the incarceration of Senator Snoke?'
'My daughter did have a hand in his capture yes. She is a remarkable young woman.'
'Does she have plans to return to the public arena?'
'I can't say, she may change her mind in the future, right now I think she is just enjoying being a nobody.' He said with a wistful smile.
Rey blows on her tea gently and takes a sip. A man walks into the cafe, everyone turns to look at him except for Rey. She doesn't need to. She knows exactly who just came through the door.
He slips into the chair opposite her.
'How's the tea?'
'Good.' She said smiling up at him. 'I'm Rey by the way.'
The man smiles, amused. 'Kylo and I like your hair, Rey.'
'Thanks.' Rey said, twirling one of her newly dyed blonde locks around her finger.
'So Kylo, what is it you do?'
'I'm a bodyguard. Well I was a bodyguard.'
'Wow! That's impressive.'
'Thank you, and yourself?'
'I'm currently between jobs too.'
'Oh, what was your last profession?'
'Princess.'
'Wow.'
'I know.'
'What happened?'
'Oh the usual, boy meets girl, boy makes coffee shop barista cry...anyway, long story short, I gave it all up for love.' Rey said with a shrug.
'Was it worth it?'
Rey sipped her tea, 'sometimes.' She said with a twinkle in her eye.
Kylo cocked at eyebrow at her, his eyes focus on the diamond ring sparkling on her finger as she moved the cup to her lips.
'Wanna get out of here?' He asked.
'Thought you'd never ask.'
They walked along the beach front hand in hand. Rey closed her eyes and turns her face to the sun.
'As much as I love this Hawaiian sun, I think my pale skin is crying out for some relief.'
'Well where would you like to go?' Kylo said twirling her around, 'We can go anywhere you want.' He said twirling her back into his arms and dipping her.
Rey giggled as Kylo leaned down to kiss the end of her nose.
'Won't you miss our little love nest? It's sorta become home.'
'You're my home.' He said capturing her lips in a searing kiss.
When he pulled away, Rey saw the hunger in his eyes.
'Let's head back.'
Back at the small beach front apartment they shared together, Rey arched her back and gripped the bars on the headboard. With her head thrown back and her eyes closed her uttered,
'More.'
Kylo obeyed and pushed his tongue forward, deeper into her. Rey called out in response. Kylo let his tongue run slowly up to her clit, then made circular movements. Rey panted hard.
Kylo sucked and flicked at the sensitive nub with his tongue, holding Rey's thighs in place as she writhed in pleasure.
'Kylo' she whimpered, 'oh god.'
Kylo increased the pressure and He felt her muscles contract around him.
'Oh god, now Kylo. I'm so ready.'
He moved over her, pressing his lips to hers as he entered her. He hitched her leg up by the knee. Rey bit her lip and moaned.
He moved inside of her, slowly at first, then faster as his own release grew near.
She was so soft, so subtle, so yielding and yet despite all her vulnerability, she owned him completely. No matter how many times they made love he was always in awe of her.
Kylo clenched his teeth and Rey ran her hands over his broad shoulders, lacing her fingers behind his neck.
'Come for me baby.' She said seductively looking into his eyes.
He could never refuse her.
Later as Rey lay in Kylo's arms staring out of the open doors that led onto the starlit beach, she sighed contentedly. Kylo kissed her neck.
'You sure you're ready for this?' He asked for the millionth time, 'Are you sure this is what you want?'
'Yes Kylo.' She said turning her head to kiss his lips gently. 'I'm ready to be your wife.'
Their favourite song 'Rule the world' played as she walked down the board walk aisle laid out on the golden beach.
Her dress was a simple ivory coloured silk, strapless, with an organza overlay that flared out behind her creating a small train.
She carried a bouquet of tropical flowers, that were also scattered through her dark curls.
She covered her mouth with the back of her hand when she saw Rose and Finn waiting near the alter adorned with more exotic flowers.
Tears pooled in her eyes as she ran towards them and embraced each of them in turn.
She turned to Kylo who was looking at her with his lips slightly apart, letting his eyes run over her from head to toe.
'Rey...' He managed to whisper.
She wrapped her arms around him,
'I thought we decided it was too much of a risk to have guests here?'
He held her tightly against him,
'Some risks are worth taking.'
They held hands throughout the ceremony. Rey felt as if she would burst. She felt love surrounding her, inspiring her, guiding her on. This was right. She was where she was meant to be with Kylo by her side.
Later they slow danced alone in their bridal suite hotel room overlooking the ocean. Rey looked up at her husband,
'Imagine if you had been someone else.'
'What?'
'I mean, Imagine if I had had a different bodyguard. Imagine if I had never met you.'
'Imagine if you had met Hux first.'
Rey grimaced and Kylo laughed, then she decided to have a little fun with him.
'Well, He happens to be doing really well for himself. His business is really taking off and I think he still has a soft spot for me...'
Kylo pulled her close to him suddenly and Rey yelped.
'I know what you are doing Mrs Ren. Cut it out.'
'Mmmm, I should be more careful shouldn't I? I do recall a time when fighting with me was one of your favourite pastimes.'
'Still is, but there are other activities I enjoy doing with you a whole lot more.'
'What could you be referring to I wonder?'
Kylo kissed her then, a long, drawn out kiss. A kiss that held a promise of a long and happy life together.
'Let's get you out of this dress. I need you naked Wife.'
'Yes husband.' Rey said already lowering her zip at the back of her dress. She turned so Kylo could pull it all the way down for her and shivered as he ran his fingers gently down her back as he did so.
The dress fell to the floor and Rey stepped out of it, kicking it out of the way with her high heeled pump. She leaned back into her husband, tilting her head to kiss his lips. Kylo's hands went to her breasts and she moaned into his mouth as he caressed her.
Kylo's hand travelled lower, down her stomach to her panties. She sucked in a breath as he ran a finger along her waistline then pushed lower. Rey moaned as he deftly moved his fingers over her clit. She could feel his cock pushed up against her lower back. Hard and ready.
'I want you in me.' She breathed against his lips.
Kylo smiled down at her,
'I know what you want.'
Still standing behind her he guided her forward and placed her hands on the wall. He slowly pulled her panties down and Rey quivered with anticipation.
'Spread your legs for me baby.' He whispered into her ear.
She widened her legs and he pushed into her hard. Rey cried out and scratched her nails against the wall. He held her hips steady and began to move within her.
Rey started to make little soft sighs deep in her throat.
Kylo sped up and reached around to cup Rey's breasts.
He closed his eyes and clenched his teeth as his release engulfed him and he clung to Rey to keep himself upright as he came within her.
'God Rey you're amazing.'
'You're not so bad yourself husband.'
They showered together, and fell into the giant queen sized bed. Exhausted but happy.
'What should we do now?' Rey said with a yawn.
'I thought we would go to sleep?'
Rey swatted his arm, 'No silly, I mean with the rest of our lives! You're not a bodyguard anymore and I'm not a Princess so what do we do now?'
'Anything we want.'
Rey thought for a moment.
'I want to help people. It was always the favourite part of my job. My charity work was so fulfilling.'
Kylo kissed her forehead.
'That's what we'll do then. We will help people.'
He turned off the bedside lamp and bundled Rey into his arms.
'I don't care what we do as long as we are together.'
'Always.' Rey said snuggling into his chest.
'Always.' He echoed as sleep claimed them both.
