Chapter 419 - Private Chamber
Chapter 419 - Private Chamber
After the dinner was over, and after lots of suspense and surprises, the wedding ceremony of the Future Queen and Prince Consort finally concluded.
Those guests who had come from other countries were all staying in the Palace. And those whose houses were relatively near departed from the Palace.
After bidding goodnight to the guests, Adeline and Theodore were led by Hawisa and Osanna towards the newlywed's chamber. Adeline's private chamber had already been refurbished to adhere to the needs of both Adeline and Theodore. And from today onwards, it was going to be both of their rooms.
The maids stopped in front of the main door of their private chambers. "Have a goodnight, Your Highnesses," Both Hawisa and Osanna gave a wide smile and bowed to the Prince and the Princess. And they ran away from there while giggling and covering their mouth with their palms.
Adeline chuckled after seeing those women who were more excited than her regarding her 'first night' together with Theodore.
While Adeline was following the maids with her eyes, Theodore wrapped her into a warm embrace from behind and kissed Adeline on the neck. And then he whispered in a sultry voice, "Ah! Finally, I am alone with my wife."
Theodore couldn't help but lightly nip on Adeline's neck and shoulders. Adeline held in her breath and bit her lower lip. She lightly caressed Theodore's head and asked in a whisper, "Theo, let's go inside first, shall we?"
He lightly bit Adeline's ear and said in a hushed tone, "Uh-huh… I think that's a good idea." His hot breath sent his words reverberating through Adeline's whole body.
Theodore then swept Adeline off of her feet, and Adeline wrapped her arms around her husband's neck.
He pushed the main door open and carried her inside the meeting room which was now turned into an antechamber. "Whoa! Your father really did a great job, didn't he?" Theodore couldn't help but stop to admire the new look of the room.
To the right of the antechamber was the bathhouse and to the left was their bed-chamber. The meeting room and dining hall had been shifted to the adjacent room, meaning that the whole area was going to be their private chambers from now on.
Theodore trailed his eyes around that antechamber to see a small tea table and two chairs in the middle of the room. The room was decorated with beautiful tapestries and paintings. The one that caught Theodore's eyes was the beautiful painting of the dinner that he had with the Royal Family.
"That painting is our wedding gift from His Majesty, right?" Theodore asked Adeline and she nodded in response. He walked closer towards the painting while still holding Adeline in his arms. He smiled while looking at one particular person and said, "Look at you… so beautiful."
Adeline pointed at Theodore's face in the painting and proudly teased him, "Even this Theo can't take his eyes off of me."
Theodore looked into Adeline's deep blue eyes and smiled. "True, I can guarantee that even if a hundred Theo were to exist then none of them would be able to look away from you. All of them would fall for you."
Theodore stole a peck of Adeline's lips and happily carried her inside their bed-chamber. There were new pieces of furniture like a new wardrobe and a table and chair for Theodore. His belongings had already been arranged by the maids.
Their bed had also been changed. It was now more spacious than the previous one, not that they really needed the bed to be that wide. After all, they were always going to spoon and cuddle with each other the whole night.
Though both of them were amazed to see that an elaborate baldachin had been placed over the bed. And for their first night, the baldachin was decorated with white Lily of the Valley flowers while the bed was covered with soft white rose petals.
Theodore gently placed Adeline on the decorated bed and said in a seductive whisper, "I was thinking of sleeping but I don't think we should let these decorations go to waste."
Adeline giggled and shook her head to say, "As if you were going to sleep…"
Theodore smiled looking at his chirpy wife. Before diving on the bed, he helped Adeline to take off her shoes and then glanced at her head. There were a lot of things there and he wondered how she could carry those weights on her head for the whole day.
"Let me help you take those shiny things off first," Theodore pulled Adeline back up and the two of them got busy for a while, trying to figure out how to undo everything, from the tiara and veil to the pins.
After they were finally done with Adeline's hair, she turned her back towards Theodore and asked, "Will you help me take the dress off as well?"
But instead of his answer, she heard a soft sound of clothes falling on the floor. She turned around to see that Theodore had already taken off his ceremonial robe and was slowly unbuttoning his shirt.
Adeline instantly parted her lips and blew out hot air from her lips. Her eyes were stuck on her husband who looked as seductive as ever.
This was the first time Adeline was seeing Theodore in clothes other than black in color. And to add to that, in the clothes that recently came into fashion. Theodore's toned body shape was looking more prominent and tempting in that white shirt and black trousers that were so tightly and neatly fitted to his body that Adeline was almost drooling.
Theodore gave a teasing smirk and his deep voice echoed in the chamber, "I will help you out… but when the time is right. Meanwhile…" he undid his cufflinks in a seductive manner and said, "…you can enjoy watching me disrobe."
Adeline raised her brows and said while peeking at Theodore's chest that was showing from the first two button that he had undone already, "Oh, trust me, darling. I am enjoying the show."
Theodore laughed and shook his head. "You're not even shy anymore…"
Adeline sat on the edge of the bed with her legs crossed. She flipped her hair to the side and gazed at Theodore with a tilted head. She gave a teasing smile and asked, "What's there to be shy about? I've already kissed every inch of your body and you've already explored every nooks and cranny of mine."
"Ah! I've already made you so shameless." Theodore gave a smoldering look to his brazen wife. He took off his shirt to reveal his tight muscles that were so appealing that Adeline bit her lower lips and held her breath.
He dropped the shirt on the floor and stood tall in front of Adeline. Adeline let go of her warm breath which caressed Theodore's stomach and subtly tickled him.
Theodore then raised his hand to hold on to the post of the baldachin and flexed his muscles even more.. He looked at his wife whose eyes were fixated on his chest and stomach and he said in his desperate whisper, "There are a few good inches where you haven't kissed yet."
