Chapter 2

I lay in the large bed between the red satin sheets. The bed was comfy but I couldn't sleep with James right next to me. His presence made the room tense and I could tell he had made himself comfortable on the bed. I lay on my back where I first leaned back and haven't moved since.

Its been a half hour since we laid down and I didn't want to breathe. My lungs hurt from the lack of oxygen and my heart beat fast. I could tell that James was close to falling asleep, his breathing was slowing and he had stopped moving around. I looked over at him he lay in the bed under the same blanket as I without a shirt. He lay on his stomach his hair ruffled and his glasses off. He looked handsome, I wanted to run my hand through his hair, it called to me.

I turned away rolling onto my side, and closed my eyes hoping sleep would come to me. This was my wedding night, he didn't try anything and neither did I, and we barely even talked to each other. Its what I wanted isn't it? no this is too quiet, what happens when his parents leave and all I know around here is James and a few maids? I couldn't take back my choice of being his friend so soon. But who I was I too talk to?

I sighed as sleep overcame my tired brain.

--

I woke up feeling something soft on my arm I looked over to see my new wife laying on her side her hair draped on my arm. I smiled in her waking state she may not like him but she defiantly held no protest when they slept. He wrapped the blanket back up around her before he got up and started to get changed.

I was naked as I looked for clothes to wear after my bath. I heard some rustling behind me and I turned to see Lily sitting up. When she opened her eyes the view in front of her was a shock.

Naked James

"what the hell are you doing?She demanded.

"Getting ready for my bath? Do you have a problem with that?"

"yes your naked, cover up." She averted her eyes away from him, her cheeks were deep red. I smiled knowing I was making her uncomfortable. I went closer to the bed and sat down. Lily looked over as the bed sank under my weight. I laughed loudly at her shocked expression.

"what the hell are you doing?"

"I am sitting down beside you my wife?"

"well don't your not dressed right"

"you are my wife it is alright to see me like this, and this will not be your first time. In fact you will get quite acquainted with my naked body."

"What? No I wont"

"you are my wife what do you expect me to do. We are to have children for an heir to the kingdom. You are my wife you have no such hold. If I want you I will take you." I yelled I could feel her fear at my last words and felt satisfied she was finally seeing the truth. I could do whatever I wanted to her and not get in trouble and it was time she realized that. I wanted to love her but she wouldn't allow me in. If she stays closed for too long I will not wait to demand her love for me. I will not wait forever to make her my true wife.

I wouldn't

"you cant do it!"

"I guess your going to see aren't we Lily. Care to join me?" I said as I got off the bed, she looked away quickly.

"Look at me Lily NOW!" I demanded.

Lily looked at me with fear in her eyes. I felt bad for scaring her but I knew I raised a valid point and I knew she knew that too.

"very good, will you join me?"

"no!"

I glared at her and walked away back to my search for clothes. I found a pair of trousers and a white shirt. After my long scolding bath I knew I could handle the spitfire again. She knew how to raise my temper and I worried at where it would land me. Probably nowhere too safe and I did not look forward to that day.

I exited the bathroom to find her nowhere in sight. "Lily?" I walked into out shared sitting room and saw her sitting on the couch wearing a robe. Only a robe.

"you want to take control over me and my body then fine here you go, I lay here waiting for you, to save us time in the future of having to get through it. So just hurry and get it done then James. This is what you want don't you James? Me to submit, to allow you access but that doesn't matter to you, you would take me by force wouldn't you James?"

I looked at her and smiled, I knew I had scared her more then she was letting on and what was I do to now? I laughed and she frowned at my laughter she obviously didn't find this funny, when her little speech was ridiculous.

"yes princess I do want you to submit to me body and soul however if I am to take you it will be when I choose to not when you do. Don't forget princess I am the one in control here not you."

"Ugh you – you" She rose up and raised her hand to hit him but he caught her hand before it made contact with his chest. Her robe slipped open a little showing a long column of smooth skin. I gulped in air and smiled.

I gulped again and used my other hand to pull her robe back to the other side. She swatted the hand away and returned the robe back to its rightful place. She looked up at me and must of seen something in my eyes and she let her wrist in my hand stop struggling. I stepped forward wanting to catch the lips with my own. However she moved two steps back. I grinned at her apprehension.

"dear wife if I choose to kiss you now you will obey."

"yes!" she whispered and I grinned as she closed her eyes. I pulled her hand up to my lips and placed a soft kiss upon each finger. I grinned again and dropped her hand and took two steps back.

She opened her eyes confused; she saw my steps away and sighed in relief. She didn't want to kiss him and she didn't want to be near him let alone having him touching her. She knew could not disobey though, James was right about that.

"you really ought to get dressed Lils" He said as he walked past her and out the door.

"wait!" she yelled.

I turned around to look at her again in her soft green robe. "yes?"

"I don't know where anything is? How will I find the dining hall?"

"oh hurry up and ill take you then and then we can go through a tour of the castle yeah?"

She rushed off in a flurry of green and I sighed impatiently. I walked into the room to find her changing into a emerald dress with little white bows along the front. I smiled as I looked at her naked skin. It was pale but I found it fit her perfectly; I looked her up and down as she saw me looking at her naked skin. I grinned she was really attractive and I knew I would enjoy her body sooner then later.

Her shoulders sloped at just the right degree, the swell of her breasts were pale and inviting, her legs long. She looked very appealing and I wanted to take action right away. I sank down onto the bed to watch her ready herself. I was going to make her a good wife it would just take a couple of weeks to get everything to be just right between the two of us, and our marriage. She will learn all my likes and dislikes she will know me inside and out and we will live in love and happiness till the day we die I would make sure of it. Whether that means I would have to strap her down it would happen.

Finally after what felt like forever she was ready to go to the dining hall.

"lets go before the servants think something is wrong"

They walked down the corridor in silence, both lost in their own thought. Lily was thinking what a beautiful castle this was and James was thinking about how to start off a normal conversation without fighting.

"do you ride normally?"

"no!"

"oh well do you have an interest in doing so?"

"not really its sort of fascinating but nothing too special but it is unladylike."

"well I will teach you one day." I sighed as we descended back into silence.

We entered the dining hall and saw my parents already sitting there waiting for us.

--

My nerves were in turmoil after this mornings actions, seeing James naked, offering herself to get it over with and then him seeing her naked. Let alone the bad sleep she had had the night before, so far marriage was not agreeing with her.

"my Lily you look lovely today" said James mother as we entered the dining hall.

"thank you" I say politely back as I curtseyed to her and the king. I sat in the chair James held out for me and looked at the table in front of me. There were piles upon piles of food sitting in front of me and I could not imagine what I would like to eat first.

Too late James already had my plate for me and was asking me what I wanted. I couldn't even get my own food anymore, who would of thought he was so demanding I thought I could change something when I got here but he wasn't going to give me the chance I realized.

"so Lily how do you like the castle so far?" the king asked me before i could answer James.

"it's lovely well what I have seen so far."

"me and Lily are going to take a tour after breakfast here." James said smiling.

"show her the grand hall she will absolutely die of beauty she will" said his mother.

I smiled to allow them all to know I was quite alright with this. I looked down at the plate James had gotten me. There was a piece of bread, two cut up apples and some potatoes on the side. I looked up at him to find him watching me and I smiled. Somehow he had managed to grab my favorite things. I lifted my drink to find wine in the cup. Mother and father always forbid me to try the wine said I wouldn't be able to handle it but these people were treating me like an adult not some little 16 year old.

"How was you sleep dear?" The queen asked.

"The bed was very comfortable however it will take time to learn to sleep with someone else in the bed." I said as the table laughed. I could feel my face grow red from what I had said.

"Yes quite different indeed" said Laura James mother. She had long black hair messy like her sons; her eyes were warm blue and her figure thin. Her husband the king Joseph had short blond hair and hazel eyes that matched James own; he was muscular and tall to his name.

We finished breakfast in small chatter and I felt content with the breakfast, it was friendly and felt like real families not like at my own castle. No this is my castle now. I had to remember that I was married and to adapt to this new life, however being at breakfast this morning I was finding myself warming to the idea of living here.

As James showed me around the castle he showed me all the secret passage ways. He reminded her of a little kid as he smiled every time he had a new passageway to show me. He would pull things or push things and every time he would bounce with excitement which would raise my own.

He pulled me along by my hand running down corridors rushing into room after room, he was running like a little kid and it made me feel like one. We rushed around the castle laughing and giggling when we were interrupted by a maid.

"hello Villa how many we help you?" I turned to look at James he had a frown on his face now, I felt my own face turn into a frown; I leaned over to whisper in his ear who is she.

"my mother's maid." He whispered back as we waited for Villa to answer.

"Prince Potter" she curtseyed deep. "Your mother wishes for you too to join her in the dining hall."

"Do you know what she wants?" Lily asked astounded.

"She wishes to dine as His Majesty is gone away on business."

"Thank you Villa please tell her we will join her shortly."

Lily and James finished their tour of the castle quickly with little laughter and returned to their room to change for lunch. That's when there was a knock on their door that would open so many more problems.
