Thank goodness Mary was as sharp as she was. By the excited, flushed expression I'm sure I was emanating she knew things had gone rather well.
"He's coming?" she asked, brimming.
"Yes!" And I grabbed her by the hand, pulling her to the door. "And you need to help me get ready!" My chest heaved from running and fraught with the thrill of making love to Maxon, I didn't wait for her to ask any other questions. "Come on, Mary!"
"Oh Lord! Coming, my Lady!"
I ran down the hall with Mary in one hand and my shoes in the other. My heart was racing and it wasn't because I was running either.
We entered the Queen's suite and I tossed my shoes someplace.
"Oh God, Mary, he's going to be here soon!" I cried excitedly, trying to unzip my dress, my fingers fumbling with the zipper. Mary took over, lowering it for me. "Hurry! Get me out of this damn dress!"
"My Lady! You are going to have to calm down!" she mildly cried, chuckling some as she pulled the dress over my head. "You may want to display a little restraint."
"I don't have any left Mary!" My voice was muffled through the material. Once the dress was off, I bounded over to my dresser. Pulling open the drawers I needed to find something special to wear for him. I looked nice in my underwear but I wanted pizazz! A wow factor! Pieces of lingerie started flying out of the drawers.
"Help me find something he'll like Mary. Something white."
Mary joined me, sorting through the array of lacey, sheer, skimpy little pieces that were now a part of my wardrobe for Maxon's eyes only.
"White?! But…but...there's so many, my Lady," she said, holding a few in her hands already.
"What about the one Nicoletta sent last week? The white, little tunic…he hasn't seen that one yet."
"Excellent choice!" Mary agreed. "It's still in the gift box in your closet." She went to retrieve it and laid the box on the bed.
Lifting the lid, I pulled off the white paper filling, not too gently, revealing the exquisite, very naughty, sheer tunic. I held it up to my body and looking in the standing mirror, I beamed. "Ohhh…he will love this!"
"I'm certain, for the mere seconds it will be on you before it hits the floor!" Mary quipped.
"It's the whole point Mary. To arouse him."
Mary's cheeks blushed a fierce red. "Well, let's get you all prim. Can't keep His Majesty waiting."
Mary dragged me to the bathroom just to freshen up a bit. In my excitement, I felt heated. I'm sure if I were a piece of coal, I'd be glowing fire red! I discarded the rest of what I had on as I took to the powder puff, powdering between critical crevices, and over my chest, Mary took care of my back to rid me of any sweat then applied a lightly scented lotion over my entire body for a nice smooth effect.
I took out the combs and tossed my hair. My hair looked amazing as it draped over the sides of my face and unto my shoulders. Maxon loved my hair this way. My make-up still looked good. I was glad not to have to fool with it at this second but I would definitely need more strawberry lip gloss since Maxon had kissed off what I had worn earlier. Easy fix.
We exited the bathroom back to Nicoletta's gift. Mary handed me the matching string bikini panties and then helped me with the tunic. The neckline rested on my collarbone. Little white pearls dotted the lacey material in patterned intervals on my upper chest. The bodice itself was ultra sheer, see through, nothing hidden from one's eyes kind of fabric. It rested softly on my upper hips with white lace hemming the bottom. The sleeves were lovely, bell shaped and also trimmed with white lace. I smiled at my reflection, loving the way I looked and felt. And just thinking of how Maxon was going to react to this little outfit made me ache where I needed him the most.
I turned to Mary and she couldn't have agreed more saying, "I'm sure in that…you could probably make a blind man see so I'm sure His Majesty's eyes are doomed to pop right out of his head when he first lays his on you." She paused. "May you have strength in you my lady because you're sure enough going to have a bull on your hands."
I bit my bottom lip. "I certainly hope so."
Having dismissed Mary for the rest of the day, I entered Maxon's bedroom, our bedroom really since I never slept in the Queen's suite and gauged where would be the best spot to perch myself to greet him…

"Where the hell are they?" I called for my two advisors immediately after America left. Adrenaline was pumping through my veins at such a rate I thought I could run a marathon. I could only think about her words, her sweet expressions. How she told me she loved me and how there was no other but me and never will be and she asked for my forgiveness. There was no need for forgiveness but just the mere thought that she'd asked, warmed me beyond measure. The thorn had been removed and now my world was back to where it had been. No third party welcomed.
She told me she'd be waiting for me and after our little make-out session on the couch I knew exactly what that meant. I could already feel my dick pulsating which only reminded me that I was being rudely delayed. The guard that had been stationed at my door returned with word that my advirsors would be here directly and still it wasn't quickly enough.
"But…Your Majesty," Stavros began to protest the cancellation of the rest of the day's agenda. "But the King and Queen of Swenday await your response."
"And I'm sure they can wait another 24-hours," I shot Stavros a look as I signed off on the last couple of documents that concluded our business for the day, "before they get it. The world will not stop revolving just because we are delaying a reply."
"It is highly unlike you to postpone matters of state, Your Majesty."
"And the sun will rise again tomorrow, Stavros," I quipped, pushing the papers aside and stood from behind my desk. "Now, I am taking my leave. I suggest you go enjoy the rest of the day. If you insist on working, I will leave that up to your good judgment but I will not. I will see you tomorrow…perhaps."
I could see my most trusted advisor was about to blurt another long train of protests but I held up my hand, not wanting to hear another word. I had much more important matters to tend to and she was a red-head with a dangerous kiss and a slamming body I needed to make love to…right now! A shiver ran down my spine.
Turning on my heels and with only a stern, "I'll be in touch," left my office and my advisors behind. I walked past the guard and then a few others on my way to my room. I knew she'd be waiting there and I couldn't walk fast enough to get to her. The thought of having her, feeling her nakedness against mine, tasting her luscious body, joining with her, sent several shocks through me. It had been three days since we had made love and it had been way too long. And I wondered if make-up sex would be as America once told me, the best kind you could have. Well…I was about to find out.

I couldn't decide if the chaise was a good option or maybe the bench at the end of our bed. Or maybe if I just rested against the bed post facing the door I would certainly be the first thing to greet his eyes. Hmm...,not sexy enough after second thoughts. This anticipation was killing me! What was taking Maxon so long?! Yet even as I waited, I couldn't help to think of all the deliciously naughty things I would do to him.
I climbed on our bed and got chills. Sinking my knees into the mattress made me shiver. Just days ago we had made love on this very bed and I'd had one of the most fabulous orgasms of my life! The ache between my thighs increased exponentially, a hundred fold and I could feel the hardness of my nipples rubbing against the material of my lingerie. I slinked down unto the cool sheets on Maxon's side of the bed, my bottom slanted upwards, and yearning for his presence. I could imagine his body, naked, those hard muscles I would rake my hands over, lying here, letting me. I thought about the hundreds of kisses I would plant on that gorgeous, masculine body…all over and I thought about those hands, how his hands now so knowledgeable of my own needs, would touch, caress and fondle anything they wanted. I felt my breathing deepen and I was getting hotter. And I couldn't help thinking if the article I'd read on make-up sex was really true. Well…I was about to find out. And I couldn't wait! What the hell was taking him so long!
"Now that's a sight I could stand here and watch all day," said the husky voice belonging to Maxon as he stood at the door, now shut behind him. Chills covered every inch of my skin and a sudden jolt of recognition jarred my pussy. All of my female parts were now on high alert! I hadn't even heard him enter, too engaged in the fantasy playing in my head. Damn, I missed my moment. But I suppose this was better than any I could conjure up myself. Oh...who the hell cared! He was here now and I wanted to do nothing else but devour him.
Maxon just stood there, so inviting. I could see the dark expression on his face. He wanted me. He would have me...anyway he wanted.
I smiled to myself and slid from the bed walking towards him, languidly so, so he could get a good, complete view of what was coming toward him. "Why stand there and watch," I said, my voice sultry and pouring with lust and want, "When you can have…and feel…and taste…"
Don't kill me you guys but I have to set this up!
