Anna Stafford's bedchamber

"Charles removed her brown hairs from her face with a gentle movement and shook his head"

She is just scared. She doesn't want to lose me. But...I don't want to lose you, neither! Once I would have already brought you on bed. But now...

"He said whispering while his glance fell on her neckline"

She sighed and smiled softly "then take me to bed ... i promise this would only be betweenyou and me"
She kissed his cheek softly "i need you so much.... i'm so scared about losing you to ."

"Charles stared at her lips and sighed again"

You'll never lose me...

"Then he couldn't resist anymore and kissed deeply her lips"

"I hope not..." she said before he broke her off her words kissing her deeply. She wraps her arms around his neck , her tongue clashed against his each tongue dancing in each other mouths.

"Charles caressed softly her curls tasting deeply her tongue with closed eyes. He brought her until the bed still kissing her. He parted his lips from hers just to remove his doublet. Then he pulled her down on bed and started kissing her hungrily"

She helped him remove the bed cover and as she feel back on the bed she wrapped her legs around his waist kissing him back hungrily. Her hands travel all the way up his body moving his shirt up his body to take it off.

"Charles moved his hands on her corset unlacing it and biting her lips. Once he saw her naked, exposed breasts, he leaned his head and teased her nipples with his tongue. He moaned trying at the same time to unlace fastly his breeches"

Her back bowed off the bed and her head indented the bed as he licked and sucked on her pink ,rosey nipple. "oh Charles" she moaned her hands holding his head in place.

"Charles moved his tongue around her nipples, tasting them deeply. He looked up at her breathing hardly"

Anna...we shouldn't. It's not fair and...your closeness is too tempting for me...

"He rolled on his back staring at the ceiling, leaving hardly her exposed breasts"

She moaned as he sucked on her suttle nipples "oh Charles" her back arched off the bed as her sucked harder.
As she heard what he said she sighed and began to cry agian turning on her side to face away from . "WHAT IS UNFAIR CHARLES IS YOU LEAVING ME HANGING.... Please go i can't bare this anymore " she sobbed .

"Charles took a deep breath. He heard her sobbing and turned towards her, touching softly her arm"

Anna...please, don't cry. I'm here. I'm not leaving you. But...try to understand. It's all so complicated...

"He leaned on her and kissed her shoulder"

"Your frustrating me Charles " she sobbed .
"I love you so much and it hurts me i feel rejected "

"Charles sighed, brushing his lips on her shoulder again"

I'm not rejecting you, Anna. We...we conceived five children. And I still remember every single night spent with you. But I know that when I'm so close to you...I can't control myself. I never did...

"He said moving his hand on her soft hip"

"But you don't love me anymore, even my own children hate me . " she sniffed "i'd rather be prosecuted and beheaded then being in a place that hates me"

"Charles shook his head sighing. He dried softly her tears with his hand"

Our children don't hate you, darling. They love you...as I love you. Why so many dark thoughts are crossing your mind?

"He asked whispering, taking her face in his hands"

"I am dark inside Charles" she looks up at him "i've gained one of the deadly sins which makes me a sinner"

"Charles frowned and sighed. Still touching her skin, he looked confused at her"

Sin? What...what are you talking about, Anna?

"He asked almost whispering, wondering if she was hiding something from him"

"I'm sorry Charles " she frowns

"I am braking my rules to even be near you ...if the king sees you near me he'll take me to the tower and there i'll await my death"

"Charles took a deep breath"

Anna...the King has nothing against you. Stop living with this fear. I know...your father's execution still hurts you. But this is the past. Your present and future are me and our children...

"He answered, trying to reassure her"

"But what happened with my father... " she closed her eyes.

"People look at me like i'm scum of the earth . All because my father was trying to protect me." she laughed "I still remember when he walked in on us making love ."

"Charles nodded, giggling at her words"

How could I forget? He put a sword at my throat, while I still was...fully naked. Well...I'm sorry for what's happened later. But I care for you in spite of all this, Anna. That's not your fault...

"He said removing a curl from her face"

She smiles at him and kissea his lips softly "i'm sorry i couldn't be the girl you wanted me to be" she strokes his face softly "i wish i had a second chance to show you how much i love you"

"Charles kissed her back. Then he smiled weakly"

I already know, Anna...I already know. You have no need to show me something. I just want to see you finally happy...

"He whispered holding softly her chin"

"I'll never be happy without you as my husband... I know your the father of my children and a very dear friend to me... It's noy enough Charles" she sighs "i know i'm being selfish but i hope you can see my side of the story... Your'll always be my first and only love"

"Charles sighed deeply after her words. He hold her cheek in his hand shooking his head"

Don't say so. You'll be happy, Anna. As you deserve. And...even if we're not married, we're a family. This is much more important. Please...show me a smile...

"He whispered tenderly trying to catch her eyes"
