Abril listened attentively, finding the ways she could use kisses to her advantage quite interesting.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When it was time for dinner, Abril headed to the dining room. Alessandro was waiting for her, but she didn\u2019t see Cassian anywhere. She asked, \u201cWhere is Cassian?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe said he would dine in his room. Apparently, he\u2019s very tired, he was training with the sword\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril took her place at the table and said, \u201cI hope he\u2019s alright.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe will be fine, it\u2019s just muscle pain. It will pass in a few days, it\u2019s been a while since he last held a\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>sword.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd what did you do today?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince it was a beautiful day, I had breakfast in the garden. Cassian accompanied me, and then we took a walk in the garden until lunchtime. In the afternoon, I was with Lady Elizabeth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see you\u2019ve had a busy day.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTomorrow, I\u2019ll have some free time in the afternoon, so we could take a boat ride on the lake.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lake?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, didn\u2019t you know?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHave you even seen everything there is to see in the palace?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, I haven\u2019t.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI suppose now is a good time for you to do so. There are many places within the palace that might interest you. There\u2019s a lake. I\u2019ll show it to you when I can, or you can ask Cassian to do so.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril was excited about the prospect of going to a lake. She wondered what it would be like to ride\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>a boat,\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro wanted Abril to be happy in the palace, to feel comfortable and to forget the idea of returning to that small house where she had been living. That\u2019s why he wanted to show her how beautiful the palace was.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When they finished dinner, Abril felt her body heavy. She had eaten more than usual and wanted to\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>|||\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt; All the kisses\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points&gt;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>take a walk before going to bed, but she wasn\u2019t sure if Alessandro would agree. Summoning her courage, she asked for his permission.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d like to take a walk before going to sleep, may I?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, but not alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro stood up and extended his hand to Abri. \u201cI will accompany you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril took his hand and said, \u201cThank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They walked through the garden bathed in moonlight until they reached a fountain. Abril remembered that in her first year in the palace, she would sneak out at night to cool off. Alessandro also remembered and said, \u201cI recall that some time ago, I used to see a fairy who\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>would come to this fountain and dip her feet in it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril knew he was talking about her, but she didn\u2019t want to admit it, so she changed the subject.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful night, not too hot.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She sat on the edge of the fountain and dipped her hand in the water. Alessandro sat beside her and said, \u201cI\u2019d like to know who that fairy was. Maybe I should order a search for her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril wanted the king to stop talking about that topic. She didn\u2019t want to be punished for having put her dirty feet in the fountain. So, she decided to test what Lady Elizabeth had taught her that afternoon. She stood up, positioned herself in front of the king, placed her hands on his shoulders, brought her face close to his, and pressed her lips gently against Alessandro\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He was very surprised. It was the first time she had initiated a kiss. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer, he deepened the kiss. When they parted, he said, \u201cWhat was that for?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLady Elizabeth told me that if I kissed you without you asking for it, you would like it. Isn\u2019t that\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>right?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did like it, so much so that I think I should generously reward Lady Elizabeth for making my wife\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>so proactive.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro made Abril sit on his lap and continued kissing her. He caressed her cheek and asked, \u201cWhat exactly did Lady Elizabeth teach you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe taught me that there are many types of kisses and that each expresses a different thing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see. I would like to receive each one of them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want each of the kisses, Lady Elizabeth explained to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll of them?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, all of them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt; All the kisses\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I don\u2019t think I can do all of them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll help you with the ones you can\u2019t do.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril kissed him on the forehead, followed by a kiss on the cheek. Then she took Alessandro\u2019s hand and kissed the back of it. She returned to his mouth and gave him a long, lingering kiss before. stopping. Alessandro asked, \u201cIs that all?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe others are more difficult for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhich ones are missing?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA kiss with the tongue, another on the neck, and another one\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril didn\u2019t want to do the last one. Alessandro was curious and asked, \u201cWhich one is missing?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs it necessary?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, I want all of them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA kiss on the earlobe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe haven\u2019t tried that one,\u201d Alessandro replied with a mischievous smile. \u201cBut let\u2019s follow the order you mentioned.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the others\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll help you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro gave her a kiss with the tongue, then a kiss on the neck that left a red mark, and finally a kiss on the earlobe. He took Abril\u2019s earlobe with his tongue and gently tugged it up and down.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A moan escaped from Abril, igniting Alessandro\u2019s desire. He continued down, kissing her neck, her collarbone, then returned to her mouth and gave her a prolonged kiss, followed by another kiss\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>with the tongue.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril felt a strange heat spreading through her body. His hot mouth burned every part of her skin it touched. Her moans began to escape from her lips. She felt her body light and weak, clinging to Alessandro\u2019s neck as he kissed her passionately, leaving her breathless.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro was engrossed, lost in lust. He no longer wanted to wait, he wanted to make her his, to steal her innocence, to devour her completely. He lifted her in his arms. Breathlessly, she asked, \u201cWhere are we going?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro smiled and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo put into practice what you\u2019ve learned.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>3\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt;\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sara Lili is a daring romance writer who turns icy landscapes into scenes of fiery passion.
