Chapter 456

"Adam & Eve"

The cold water-splashed dirt and grass alongside Darkwater Lake chilled their bodies as they erotically twined together under the starlight.

It was a slow and gradual progression towards comfort for Prince. Rihanna's guess had been correct. He'd never had sex in public before. He'd always remained behind the closed doors of a bedroom and between the sheets of a California King.

"I've waited a long time for this," Rihanna declared, guiding him deeper inside her.

Prince closed his eyes, silent while he felt Rihanna's lush warmth as he submerged deeper into her.

Rihanna anxiously watched his face, watched him close his eyes in ecstasy.

(No.) She thought, she reached up, her hands on his neck and fingers coiled around his jaw and cuticles on his earlobe. She pulled his face towards hers, kissing him and forcing his attention on her. (Think of me. Only me.) Rihanna thought. She wasn't about to let him shut his eyes and daydream about any other woman.

As he kissed her, he piledrove himself deeper-and-deeper within her, and with each thrust his body peaked, brimming with ecstasy from his fingertips to his cerebral cortex. Her kiss on his tightened, then softened into a light gasp as he plunged himself into her merging their bodies together.

Rihanna's threw her head back, glancing at the starlight for a moment.

Like two lions in the jungle, they tangled their bodies under the starlight until the king rested himself with the body of the lioness in his arms.

Naked, like Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden. They were at last together. A sphere of Rihanna's dreams. After eons of craving this moment, working to be noticed by him, and distinguishing herself from the other women in his life, Rihanna had gotten her wish. She had laid with the pharaoh of the east and with any luck, she'd given him an experience he'd never forget and one that no other woman would rival. An experience that would only call him back to her.

"Riri," Prince sighed, "Tell me, what was I like back then. The old me?"

Rihanna looked over her shoulder at him, "You were…the same but different than you are now. You loved to drink. A great battlefield tactician. Before you took the throne, the High Chief sent you on a protective detail. You came with other soldiers under the High Chief's orders to work for Malakai."

"Malakai?" Prince looked at Rihanna. "Is that someone I should know?"

"Malakai is the leader of the Nephillim Clan." Rihanna explained. "He's someone anyone with power should know."

"Malakai?" Prince repeated the name.

"So," Rihanna began, "the protective detail that the High Chief-"

Suddenly, there was a rustle in the brush around them. Then, there was a clunk in the dirt as something dropped.

Prince, Rihanna, stark-naked rolled over and could only state at Eva.

Under the starlight, with tears in her eyes, Eva stared at the both of them.
