Chapter 378: Separate Quarters

Serena sighed as she lay on her bed. She has already expected this from the start as she knew that it was the common practice to sleep separately for practical reasons. Even her parents only share the bed a couple of times a month. Yet she was still a bit disappointed. She quite liked the feeling of sleeping and waking up with Geoffrey next to her during their honeymoon.

Earlier, she wanted to mention it to him, but then, she was afraid to make him feel that his efforts for their home were not good enough.

Anyhow, she won't be able to sleep like this. He was her husband; she has the right to demand that they sleep together and…

She stood from her bed. Might as well use that passage.

She walked to her dressing room and opened the door to the passage, "Ahh!!!" she exclaimed in fright.

Geoffrey's too was surprised. "Serena, it's just me." he said as he embraced her.

"I thought you were a ghost! Why were you just standing there?"

Geoffrey chuckled, "I just arrived, I did not expect that you would be there."

Serena bit her lip. "I missed you." She said, ok so maybe they were just apart for about an hour since returning home, but she just wanted to be with him. It has just been 8 days that they shared 1 bed together, but now, it felt like she can't sleep without him by her side.

Geoffrey pinched her chin then thumbed it to stop her from biting her lip. "I missed you too." He replied before catching her lips for a kiss.

After a few second, Serena pulled back. Shyly, she asked. "Geoffrey… would it be selfish of me to wish that we share a bed together every night?"

Geoffrey smiled as he shook his head. She asked the question before he could. At first, the thought of sharing a bedroom was inconceivable to him given their stature. It has always been the tradition and he could see the practicality in it. However, after their honeymoon, he started to think otherwise. Although it would be inconvenient on a daily basis, he can always adjust.

Anyhow, it made him happy to know that she wanted the same thing as he did. "If you would let me share your room, then that would be plausible." He answered.

Serena smiled and nodded her head. Then, she reached for his hand as she pulled him to her bedroom. It was 11 in the evening and Serena knew that Geoffrey would have to go back to work tomorrow. It was almost a pity that despite him being the crown prince, he has to work harder than anyone else. Knowing this, she just made him lie on the bed, then positioned herself next to him so that she was lying beside him her head on the crook of his arm.

"Tomorrow, you will have to go and begin your duties. Ah… I already miss you." She said.

"You don't want me to go?" Geoffrey asked.

"I wish!" she responded, then she sighed. "I know that you have an obligation, as you said, this privilege comes with a price."

"I can skip a day or two if you like. Then, I can accompany you here all day." Geoffrey said as he caressed her hair.

Serena took a few seconds, as if thinking it over, before she replied. "Don't tempt me."

Geoffrey chuckled, then he flipped them over, so he was on top of her on all fours. Then, he kissed the arch of her eyebrow, moving downwards until he reached her lips.

They smiled at each other before he kissed her. They have been doing this for 8 days during their honeymoon, but he could not help himself from wanting her, from loving her.

"Geoffrey, you have work tomorrow." Serena protested but liking his ministrations.

"I can sacrifice a few hours of sleep for you." He whispered as he started kissing her jaw, then licking her neck.

Serena moaned. How can she complain? She did want them to engage in that since she saw him donning his princely regalia for dinner earlier.

"Geoffrey?" Serena called after she recovered her breath from their intense lovemaking.

"Hmm?" Geoffrey hummed.

"I know that the question is a bit inappropriate, but I need to know. Is there a battle for the crown going on between you brothers?"

Geoffrey took a moment to answer, "You can say that, but there's no need to worry about it. I can manage them on my own."

"I see… your family is so complicated. Then again, I did somewhat expect this. It has always been the case for centuries. When there's an heir and a spare, it would be inevitable for them to fight. What I just don't understand is why. I mean, can't your brothers just live a destitute life where they can just spend money like dirt?"

Geoffrey chortled as he hugged her closer. Their naked skin touching one another providing warmth. "When you say it that way, it does seem funny that they're trying to fight with me for this position."

"I just don't see the point. It's not like you're not fit for the position. You're excellent while your brothers… I can't say much for Edmond, but Frederick, just based on earlier, he can't even keep his thoughts to himself and him being king… well, it's doomsday for Windsor I should say. Anyhow, doesn't it make you angry? I for one wanted to tear Frederick's face earlier."

Geoffrey caressed Serena's hair. "When one has been groomed for the position all their life, not getting a chance to have it may seem unfair, no? From that point of view, I understand why Frederick is behaving the way he does. Yes, it did make me angry at some point, but I understand where he was coming from."

Serena sighed hearing his words. "I still feel that he should be more respectful to you. You are his brother. He's so lucky that you do not use an iron fist to discipline him."

"I did think about it, I admit. But then, looking at the larger picture, it seemed too petty. Now sleep. We can talk again when I come back home tomorrow. Alright?" He explained, omitting the fact that, aside from that, now is the time when his dysfunctional family must project an image of unity.

Serena smiled. She raised her head to put a chaste kiss on Geoffrey's lips. "Good night. I love you. Three times a day, every day, very much!" she said trying to sound sweet.

Geoffrey chuckled. "3 times a day? Perhaps on weekends."

Serena lightly bit his chest in mock anger.

Geoffrey laughed as he stopped Serena by pulling her up and kissing her again. Then, he looked her in the eye as he said, "I love you too very, very much."
