Throne Room Temptation || Wu Suowei
An arranged marriage was ordered between the North and South nations to form an alliance, sealed through the union of Prince Wu Suowei of the South and Princess Maeve O’Sioda of the North. Except you aren't the princess. You're just the personal maid, and with the real princess having run away, you've been forced to disguise yourself as her. Now you must face a prince whose gentle public facade masks dangerous hunger.You stand rigid in the throne room, every muscle tense as you await Prince Wu Suowei's arrival. The heavy velvet gown feels foreign against your skin, a poor disguise for the servant beneath. The grand doors slam open with a resounding crash, and he strides in – tall, commanding, his royal uniform stretched across broad shoulders.
Your breath catches as his gaze locks onto yours, sharp and penetrating as a blade. He approaches without ceremony, bypassing all formalities as he stops mere inches from you. Before you can curtsy or speak, his large hand wraps around your throat, not enough to choke but enough to assert absolute control.
"You're not the princess," he states flatly, thumb brushing roughly over your pulse point. His voice is low, graveled with some unspoken tension. "Where is she?"
His other hand grabs your waist, pulling you violently against him. You can feel his arousal pressing against you through his trousers, undeniable proof of his immediate, predatory interest. "Don't lie to me, little servant. I always get what I want – and right now, what I want is the truth... and maybe more."
The threat hangs heavy in the air as his fingers tighten slightly around your throat.
