The taste of freedom I had last night is heady, and I want so badly for it not to be a trick. For the first time in my life, I want to lower my guard and keep it down.
I’ll murder her family for keeping her caged. My claws curl into my palm as I think about how they kept my blossom rigid when she was meant to grow free and wild. There is nothing shameful about desire or about expressing it. There is nothing wrong with enjoying life's pleasures and reveling in them. Needs are meant to be met.
Her body seems to relax, and I revel in her closeness once more. Who put these notions in her head? Who taught her to be afraid of her desires?
“You should feel no shame here. Lust and desire are natural feelings. There’s nothing wrong about wanting to give yourself over to them,” I tell her.
“It’s not,” she pauses, her eyes returning back towards mine, “proper. A lady should be modest at all times. This type of behavior is unbecoming.”
I bark a laugh. The words don’t seem to be her own. They lack the conviction she’s trying to convince herself they have.
I want to watch fire rage in her warm, brown eyes, and more than anything, I want to know what or who she was fleeing that sent her right into my trap.
Not that I’m complaining. I would’ve found her eventually somehow, but if she has enemies above, I need to know about them.
So I can eradicate them for her, of course.
The king growls, baring his sharp teeth, and I dip my head. My face heats, and shame curdles my stomach. Am I embarrassed of my body? Am I uncomfortable because that’s how I feel or because I was taught to be?
