Stand By Me Darling
Chapter 359: Separate Bedroom?

Chapter 359: Separate Bedroom?

That attic for sometime was filled with sensual moaning and groaning of the couple.

"I love you, Iris."

Looking at the woman with her exposed shoulders and messy hair, with perspiration all over her, Arthur felt he couldn’t hold on anymore. In that dim lighting, her eyes looking at him felt like they were staring deep into his soul and they held an intense glow of seduction which was very different and stronger than their previous times together.

She is enjoying it more, right? So much for acting shy, sweet Iris!

He got more excited as he felt her insides wrapping around him tighter making him lose his sanity.

Vixen! My little Vixen!

The frequency of his thrusts increased as his lips suckled on hers to swallow her loud moans as his fingers wrapped around her cushy tush. To have a woman lose herself in his embrace, gave him an intense sense of delight.

To think the girl I shared my first kiss with in this exact place, is now in my embrace as a woman.... I thought this would be impossible!

Iris, I love you.

He didn’t want to let any sound out as much as possible. All her moans and all her expressions are only for his pleasure. They might be alone here, but the security personnel are guarding at the lower level and he knew the attic has little to no sound-proofing.

Talia fell limply on his shoulder as she attained climax. She felt sticky as she rested her cheek on his shoulder and her back hurt. Her heart still hasn’t calmed down and the hot panting of the man fell on her ears. With how closely she was stuck to him, she could feel his heart beat racing too.

Did I really do this? I really did it! I really had s*x in a public place like an animal in heat!

"Iris, are you crying?"

Arthur cupped her cheeks as he felt the warm liquid dripping on his shoulder.

"Why? Are you hurt somewhere?"

He fixed her messy hair only for her to cry more.

"Iris... " He gulped. "Did you feel forced to do it here? Did I force you? Did you not like it?" he started to panic.

What have I done? I let my lust get in my head and didn’t think about her at all! She’s a private person and an old lady at heart who believes these things only belong in the bedroom. But I forced her!

"No.... No, Fred. That’s not it." Her comforting hand held his cheeks. He looked in her eyes and she was still crying but then she started to laugh.

She didn’t think he’d blame himself like this.

"What?" Arthur calmed down as he could sense she was not in any discomfort.

"I was... I’m too happy..." her face turned red and she buried her face in his chest. "This is one moment I’d remember for the rest of my life, like our first kiss here."

Her voice felt like it was coming from inside a well for Arthur and his lips curved to a proud smirk.

"Was it that good? Good enough to make you cry?"

Talia tried to pinch his chest and he held her hand and kissed it. She still didn’t have the guts to look at his face and just nodded.

"Then let’s do it a lot at outdoors from now on," Arthur knew he is pushing her too much but he couldn’t help but say it.

"Idiot! Because this place holds a lot of good memories and since we haven’t done it in a while, this time... it is special. If we do it often, then it won’t be special anymore." she pushed him away and started to fix her clothes and hair.

"Ugh! I need a shower immediately," she grumbled and Arthur chuckled seeing her grumbling.

What an old lady!

He knew her monthlies would arrive in the next day or the day after. It is around that time and she usually gets higher drive during that time and would get a lot emotional too. Usually she’d scream at him but this time, she’s crying it seems.

Whatever! I made her cry out of happiness!

"We can ask the chauffer to take a drive around the block a couple of times and do it in the car, you know." Arthur whispered in her ears as they were on their way back. "With the engine’s vibration and the little bumps in the road, it would be- Ahhhh....!!!!" he screamed as his ears were twisted mercilessly by the woman who just minutes ago were crying in his arms.

"What? Why? This car has the perfect privacy settings. We can- Oh, stop it Iris!" he held her hand reaching out to his already squished ear once again.

"Lecher!" she grumbled and Arthur felt wronged and with a snort turned away.

What’s wrong with a man fantasizing to do it with the woman he loves?

"I, for a moment thought that you’ll be proposing when you said you’d bring me to the attic," Talia looked at Arthur supporting her chin with her hand.

"Iris, I..." Arthur searched for words to say. He didn’t think she’d expect the proposal at a place like that.

To propose to a Princess in an old attic... he would never imagine that.

But then again, she is that kind of person who only considers the emotional value rather than the monetary value of anything, right? For her that attic would be a more special place to receive a proposal than at the International Space Station or at the moon.

AH... How are you making me feel more and more in love with you each day? You’re making me more nervous Iris. Where should I propose to you?

"I know it is not possible now," Talia patted his hand seeing him going pale. "We have just announced our relationship and it would be too soon to announce our engagement. We cannot be secretly engaged just like we were secretly together before. Let’s wait at least six months. After that-"

Before she could finish, she was pulled for a kiss and Talia could feel the warmth radiating from Arthur. She felt content and blissful.

"You’re moving to another room? Why?"

After taking a shower together, Arthur was surprised when Talia announced it to him.

"I just wanted a space for myself." Talia said and watched Arthur clenching his jaw.

"You live miles away in another country for most of the days and when you return home, you still need space away from me?"

"Not ’away from you’ Fred but a space ’for me’. Don’t misunderstand, please."

"You can clear up a study for yourself if you don’t feel comfortable working in the bedroom. Why the need for a separate bedroom?"

Arthur really couldn’t understand her. She was fine working in the bedroom till now and suddenly she wants to have a separate room? Why?

"Come on... A Lord and a Lady cannot share a single bedroom. It’s a century-old tradition."

"Don’t give me that crap, Iris! You’re hiding something from me, I know. Do you think I’m so clingy or I’m more demanding? We can reduce the frequency we do it-"

"What? No way! Why should we reduce-" Talia sighed. She was a little relieved her answer calmed him down a bit.

"Come on, Fred. It’s no big deal. I’ll have a separate bedroom next to yours but I’ll sleep in this bedroom at nights."

"But this is YOUR bedroom." Arthur pulled her to a hug. "How can you leave me like this?"

"I know this is OUR bedroom, Fred. But I need a separate bedroom too. It is just thirty feet away from this room and I probably won’t sleep there ever, but I still need it." Talia pouted and looking at him, batted her eyelids cutely. She knew he would have no other way than to accept her request.

She was actually hiding something from him. She received an email from Louis to stay here as long as she wants for the preparation of the Investiture Ceremony. Since she had decided to embroider his robes herself, Talia felt like a separate bedroom would be needed to maintain the secrecy to make him feel awestruck when she reveals everything to him.

There will be lot of kits and materials that would be used in making the robe and if she had a separate room, she’d be able to hide it well. For that she felt that a bedroom would be more comfortable than a study. This was her sole reason.

Other than that, she never had any secrets from him.

"Fine. Do what you please. But tonight you’re sleeping with me," Arthur dragged her to the bed and wrapped her hands around her waist tightly.

"Freddy bear, you’re not angry, are you?" she kissed his forehead as she hugged his back. "I don’t even like sleeping alone anymore. I’ll sleep with you every night, Okay? That room is not for sleeping."

"Whatever," Arthur wrapped her hand around his waist. He is not angry at her, but was a little shocked by her request before. He could not understand why she needs space and what secret she is keeping from him, but he could accept her decision.

Now she is feeling sorry for him thinking he is angry and decided to be the big spoon to console him and that made him delighted.

Being the little spoon at times is fun! She’s so warm and I love her!
