illicit affairs
The thunder bellowed.
Lightning flashed through the huge window of the King's Chambers.
King Abel sat in bed all day, book in his hand. Not concentrating on the pages. Just staring at the ceiling. Lost in his thoughts. And now it was dark outside. And raining heavily. And he was still in bed. Staring at the ceiling. Lost in his thoughts.
He knew what he was doing to the Queen wasn't right but he couldn't help himself. He had his reasons. Earlier that morning, he heard her banging on the door. He intentionally ignored her. He couldn't bring himself to face her. He was slowly starting to realize that marrying her was a huge mistake. But there was no going back now. He had to face his fears.
So he hopped out of bed and headed straight to the Queen’s chambers.
