glance at Vasilis standing silently at her side and braced herself, but he wasn't looking at her. He was looking at Ariel, his expression sombre.
"You will feel better, little one. Very soon," he added quietly. As Ariel closed her eyes, he turned to Alex and his expression hardened.
"Let the healer work. Come with me," he ordered, grabbing her arm.
She shrugged herself out of his grasp. "No. I don't want to leave Ariel."
"Go with the master, child," Hesta intervened. "Your sister will sleep now. She won't even know you're gone."
Numbly, she nodded and let Vasilis help her off the wagon. Without a word, he took her hand and led her to a wooded area past the side of the road, away from everyone. She practically ran to keep up with his quick, long stride.
"Your Highness, wait. Let me accompany you," Malek called firmly from where he was.
Alex saw Vasilis shoot his guard a look that made Malek go still. Once away from everyone, he turned to Alex and took her by the shoulders. She gasped as she stared up at his face. He looked furious. Without another word, he dragged her into his arms and lowered his head.
Her senses exploded as soon as his mouth touched hers. His arms went around her waist and he crushed her body against his, his mouth moving with a ruthless hunger over hers. He nearly lifted her off the ground as he ground her body against his.
Alex gasped under the passionate onslaught of his kiss and his tongue plunged into her mouth. She inhaled sharply through her nose, her hands squeezing between them to push him, but he was immoveable.
He tightened his hold on her as he continued to kiss her. Alarmed and excited, she felt his erection pressing against her and her stomach jolted violently at the flare of passion exploding in her limbs. His tongue explored her mouth ruthlessly and she stiffened, realising with a start she was kissing him back with matching ardour. She moaned under his mouth, trying to control her body's treacherous response to his kiss, but couldn't.
Darts of pleasure coursed through her body as he kissed her with a hunger that almost frightened her. He ran his hands up and down her back, releasing a strangled groan against her mouth and she nearly melted at the sheer pleasure threatening her defences. What if someone could see them? She tried pushing him away again, but he grabbed her hands from his chest and dragged them around to her lower back. He held her prisoner, kissing her with a brutal passion she found alarming and exciting.
Oh God, she was melting again and she drew her head back as another moan escaped her lips. He lifted his head, his expression taut with desire, his gaze almost predatory in nature and he growled under his breath.
"You drive me mad with desire, woman," he said hoarsely. "I want to take you now."
Alex was weak, her gaze wavering under his intensity and she closed her eyes. "Everyone will see," she said, her tone husky.
He trailed hot kisses on her neck and instinctively she pressed her lower body against his hard member. He sucked in a harsh breath and stiffened violently. Slowly he released her hands and withdrew deliberately, his breathing laboured. She opened her eyes in a daze.
His nostrils were flared, his mouth tense, his breathing coming out in sharp rasps. He was staring at her with a smouldering gaze. "At least now I know why you travelled through bandit territory."
She was transfixed by his eyes. They bore down so hard on hers, she felt like he was trying to penetrate her soul.
"To compete in my father's blasted contest," he added harshly.
"Yes," she replied in a small voice, afraid.
"To have enough coin to help your sister?" he asked harshly.
She nodded numbly.
He swore roughly under his breath, running a rough hand through his hair. "From the first moment I saw the little one, I thought she looked pale because of the long journey. I didn't know she was ill. Why didn't you tell me she had an ailment of the lungs?"
"I didn't think she was going
