Love me forever

Bargain princess

She was feeling tired and hungry. What his majesty said was so shocking she forgot all about food and rest.

"Why are you Gladwin's so unscrupulous?" he wanted to know. He told her there was an arrangement of marriage made as was their custom after all. Grizelda was obligated to marry him so why was she tryng to run away from him.

The very neatly dressed king was folding his expensive booted long legs over each other. James Landry was looking at her with disgusted vehemiance. "What do you mean by unscrupulous? "You are the arrogant thief that stole all your countries money," she said after swallowing visibly looking frightened. " It is well known everyone on the internet knows what you have done, you are a thief after all now you want to add kidnapping to your crimes." She said this fearfully as apprehension gets a grip of her sudden bravado.

Griselda has not eaten anything for the whole day, she was embarrassed that her stomach growled. She only had one suitcase with her that was now here beside her. She was almost penniless, if it was not for her mother's jewelry she would have had absolutely nothing.

"Where were you planning on going you naughty girl?," James said with exasperation.

"Why were you trying to run away from all this? " He said this as he waved his hands in the air. "I can give you anything to your hearts desires.," You do read the media reports about me, don't you girl?" He went on to say he had plenty of money as he could probably buy her father's kingdom if he wanted it. James was a cruel crude man, for all of his attributes he was not someone Griselda wanted in her life.

Griselda sat on the edge of her seat, red faced and hungry. She was not in the mood for his attitudes but she pressed her nails into her hands when the hunger made her feel weak. She was definitely not going to plead with him for food. Unfortunately he heard her stomach growl as he looked at her a lost disheveled young woman who was way to proud to ask for sustenance.

This was by far the most humiliating day for Griselda Gladwin. She was her own person, she would rather die than show her weaknesses to this man. As soon as she could she was definitely going to escape from him. The arrogance of this man.

The fact that he was a king was not lost on her, realistically she was feeling angry about being captured as it was just adding insult to injury as far as she was concerned.

Why did the brute have to be so darned good looking after all. Could he not have just been a ordinary man who she could respect if he spoke nicely.

"Grizelda, angel girl I am trying to get you to listen nicely to me, mmm- ok I know you want your own life and so do I. I want my own life back so I propose a truce ok!" James said trying to seem patient but the truth was he was getting irritated by her look of impatience and panic. She could not get out of the car or stretch limousine if he was to be accurate, which is the reason he wanted her to cooperate with him.

He went on to say they should marry as both of them would not want to actually want to stay married as they could get legally seperated and actually live in seperated states or different countries if she chose to do that. He was smiling now a lopsided sexy smile that caught her off guard.

Grizelda had to be careful not to be sucked into this mans charming trap as his eyes were looking straight into hers making her very uncomfortable. She felt like she was being confronted by a truant officer that was actually wanting to punish her instead of actualy trying to help him.

"The only problem is we would have to consummate our nuptials, in other words we would have to prove I took your virginity. Oh come on dont look so shocked. There are ways of proving that we have actually slept together and actually not done so, not that I would want to go into that possibility." he said with a naughty wink.

There was a uncomfortable silence when his foot nudged hers as she realized he actually wanted her to say something.

James was growing impatient with Grizelda as he thought she would have agreed to his plans. He was totally dumbstruck when she said "But...we are not in love, so how can we be married." He eyed her with raized eyebrows as he roared with laughter. He was quite intrigued by her. All he needed to do was get her to say yes but intead he was amazed at her innocence. Where have you been all your life , with a attitude like that anyone I would have sworn you were raises in a convent waiting for knighthood.

"Look, little girl you have to be realistic and then we could have a great understanding that can suit both of us, ok sweet girl." he said this gently.

He was not a patient man but he knew he would get to set her mind at rest.

She was relieved after she nodded her head and said yes, she would marry him if they divorced soon after the marriage.

He asked the driver to go through a drive- threw and grabed her a excellent chicken meal.

She was suspicious of him but ate her meal with relish. His motives were a mystery but soon she would regret agreeing to the Kings peoposal of marriage. They were going to live separately after all. Grizelda was special, at least she thought she was, not that she was arrogant after all.

Being neglected by her own father and pushed out of her bithplace was cruel. Grizelda was sure she could have her divorce or separation soon enough, after all she was good at negotiating her way out of anything as she had done that plenty of times.

She was now happier than before especially seeing as her stomach was full but as sleepiness strikes her as she yorns out loud. She is soon fast asleep as her tiredness overtakes her body leaving the King to deal with her as he gets a room at a restroom for rent. He is the one who picks her up and carries her to a bed. As he places her on the bed she clings to him and turns her lips upward for a goodnight kiss. The King is confused about what to do with her but kisses her as she clings to him he is not in a habit of taking advantage of sleeping woman he lets her sleep as he falls asleep in a chair in the corner of the room.
