They arrived at a five star restaurant where they were going to an extremely private formal dinner where only important people would be there. They all said their hellos and ordered drinks.

The Queen smiled at the young lovebirds and she was so happy for them.

The King knew something was different between his son and Rachel because his wife had tried talking to him about them. But he didn't want to hear what she said. He knew Rachel wouldn't break the contract because if she did then she wouldn't get paid. And yet here they were acting closer than ever before. He had to think of a way to keep them apart for the remaining of the contract.

The Prince was whispering things in Rachel's ear making her blush and then she looked at him. "Stop it, we are over doing it and the King will not like it."

"Okay you're right. It's just my dick is so excited to be inside you tonight." He smirked.

She shivered and smiled. "Stop it."

The Queen couldn't stop smiling at the young royalty but then when she looked at her husband her smiled faltered. If she could only kick some sense into her husband maybe things would be better.

About an hour into deep conversation about something or other in their table, Rachel excused herself and headed towards the restrooms.

,,,,,,,,,,

When Rachel walked out of the ladies room, she was shocked to see him waiting for her with a smirk on his lips.

"Noah," she whispered with lust in her voice. "You shouldn't be here."

He moved them against the wall were no one could see them and he kissed her hard. Without a beat she kissed him back passionately and they both moaned into each other's mouths excited thinking about that night.

"Fuck I want you so much. I'm vibrating with excitement." He groaned.

She smiled and nodded. "Me too."

He had his arms around her waist and she had hers around his neck as they looked into each other's eyes when they felt someone staring at them and then cleared their throat. They pulled apart slowly but not to slow when they saw the King staring at them.

The King was seeing red. How dare they ignore his simple request? "Son I need to speak to Rachel in private."

"I'm not going anywhere." The Prince glared.

"That wasn't a question. Leave us." The King said sternly.

The Prince was pissed but left anyways.

Rachel wondered if her husband was ever going to stand up to his father. She sighed and looked at the King.

"Rachel you lied to me when I asked you if you and my son were being intimate."

"But I didn't at the time," she realized what she'd said and closed her mouth.

"You mean you two have had sexual relations already?"

"No my King," she said trying to control her emotions. "We…"

"Rachel it has come to my attention that you and my son can't be under the same roof in order for you to follow through with our contract."

"My King," she said with tears in her eyes.

"So these last five months of this fake marriage you will spend it in America away from him."

Her eyes widened and then tried to hide it. "What?"

"The Queen had made arrangements for you to leave next week for Manhattan but I feel more comfortable if you leave tomorrow morning. I made arrangements already. You will be staying in our penthouse in New York. You already know about Aria and you both will be in charge of a project for abandoned children. I know you love kids and that way you will stay away from my son."

"But my King please…"

He didn't even hear her. "You will leave tomorrow. As long as you both stay away from each other, whatever feelings you two have will not grow, it will just fade away. And when you come back it will only be to sign the divorce papers. You get your money and the people will see my son as a real King and things will turn out the way I had always planned."

She didn't know what to say. And she was trying real hard not cry because her make up would be ruined and they were still in public.

"Now let's enjoy the rest of the night, shall we?" He motioned for her to walk first and he followed.

The Queen could tell Rachel wad upset but played it out well so no one could notice. She hoped her husband didn't do anything stupid. The Prince watched Rachel as she ate her meal and mostly stayed quiet unless a question was asked. He hated how much his father was able to control her (and him) because of the damn contract.

,,,,,,,,,,

When they got into the car, the Prince finally spoke. "Father what did you say to her? She completely did a 180 when she returned to the table and you look quite smug. And I don't like the way you are treating my wife." He said seriously.

The King glared at his son. "Your fake wife will be leaving tonight for America."

Rachel eyes widened. "My King you said tomorrow morning." She said desperately as she looked at the Queen. But the Queen just stayed quiet with tears in her eyes as well. What in the world is going on in that head of his?

"I changed my mind. It's important you leave as soon as possible. The sooner the better for those kids and keep you two away from each other."

Rachel couldn't believe this. She had hoped to have one last night with her husband.

"Father what the hell is wrong with you?"

The King glared. "You watch your tone with me."

"Darling what are you doing?" the Queen asked softly.

"I'm only doing this for the best. We are done talking about it."

Rachel stayed quiet with tears in her eyes and if she looked at the Queen she would lose it. She took a deep breath and got out of the car when Jawara opened the door.

The prince got out of the car after his wife and heard his father's voice once again.

"Jawara make sure she is packed and ready to go in an hour. I already called the pilot and they will be waiting for her."

The Prince, Rachel and Jawara stood as the King got back into the car.

Rachel looked at the Queen and tears ran down her eyes.

The Queen had tears in her eyes as well and didn't know how to fix this mess. Her husband was very stubborn and didn't listen when he was in the moment but she hated how much he was hurting her son and daughter in law.

Calm down. Deep breathes. Don't hate me. You know they will end up together eventually. Patience loves.
