Lina blushed when she heard Vicente's question. Although she had already had two boyfriends, she had never done anything with either of them, and even in the hottest moments of her relationships with those men, neither of them had ever spoken to her like that.
But Vicente was staring at her unashamedly, almost as if he were a wolf waiting for the moment to eat his prey.
She was dressed, but in front of him, she felt naked and small as she had never felt before.
She wanted to create a friendly relationship with him. After all, it would be great to have a friend as talented and powerful as Vicente. But without realizing it, she forgot what men were like.
It was easy for her to analyze the problem of Killian being so close to Nina. But understanding some problems about herself wasn't as easy as doing the same with other people.
"You know my position, but you talk to me like that." She muttered as she couldn't help but show her agitated breathing.
He smiled at her. "Isn't there such a thing as friendship in the kingdom? I thought such things were more common than people say."
"Yes, they are. But not with princesses. I have several friends who get involved with men outside of marriage, but none have my position. So they can afford to choose whether or not to get married without ever having done anything." She said as she felt as if time was passing more slowly.
However, she couldn't help but feel a strange sensation in her chest as she spoke to Vicente.
She was embarrassed, but she couldn't help but feel aroused, too!
"But it's not like that for me."
"Are you promised to someone?" Vicente pressed her.
He could take this meeting the way Lina wanted it: as a meeting between two people with common interests who could one day become friends or at least close allies.
But of all the women he had ever met, Lina was the most beautiful. She even managed to surpass the beauty of Nova, Sarah, Shelby, and Layla, the women he had relationships with so far.
The princess was beautiful, but she was the woman who came closest to Vicente's standard of beauty. She was a brunette, with ample measurements in her hips and bust and a way of speaking and behaving that made him want to spend more time with her.
Seeing an opening for him to try to get closer to her in a deeper way, he couldn't help but seize the opportunity to take this relationship in a different direction than Lina had intended.
"No."
"You've dated before. Why didn't you do anything with them?"
"They weren't good enough."
"Were they royalty from other states?" He asked her.
If Lina were to marry a nobleman or rich man from the kingdom, she would naturally have the highest position in that marriage, giving her some advantages. But if she were to marry a prince from another state, things could be quite different, and her fiancé's side could demand more of her.
"No. They were nobles. The kingdom's partners don't have any unmarried princes or princes around my age available to marry now." She was sincere.
Princesses like her couldn't always marry princes from other states, which was best for sovereign families of states. Sometimes, someone like her ran out of options to help their family with a good marriage. This was bad for the family but very good for women like her, as they got a few extra freedoms because of it.
"Then it seems to me that you can do whatever you want, Your Highness." He got up from his seat and slowly walked over to Lina.
She got up from her seat too and walked backward slowly, away from Vicente.
"What do you want?" She asked him as she saw him coming closer and closer to her.
They were in a special room where anyone would have to ask their permission to enter. As such, they had enough privacy to do anything there.
When she came up against a wall behind her and could no longer back away, he stopped 15 centimeters away from her, looking down into her eyes.
Vicente was over 1.9 meters tall, while Lina was 1.6 meters tall.
He brought his face close to her left ear and said softly. "Let me show you what those two were incapable of making you feel."
She shivered as she felt him wrap one of his arms around her waist, but he didn't kiss her. He only went 90% of the way and stopped very close to her.
She closed her eyes, feeling hot and like she was suffocating. Too nervous to say anything or stand still in the tension, she let herself get carried away.
'I'll give you what you want this time...' She thought as she moved forward the remaining 10% until her lips touched Vicente's.
What harm could a kiss do? She had already done it with her first two boyfriends a few times, but she had never felt more interested in doing it with those men than she did now with Vicente.
'The next time we meet, I'll make sure you follow my plans, ' she thought as she felt Vicente's tongue enter her mouth. 'That wasn't supposed to happen, least of all here.'
But as she thought, she gradually put her thoughts about what they were doing to one side as she felt how good it felt to kiss that man.
Without realizing it, 10 minutes passed while Vicente was still kissing her.
But he wasn't just kissing her anymore. One of his hands was under her clothes, touching a part that only her mother had touched when she was a child but which, for more than a decade, had only been touched by herself.
Her dress was no longer so well-fitting on her body, and parts she would have liked to avoid being seen in public were now in full view.
However, she didn't care. In the heat of the moment, she just wanted to finish sorting out what she was doing.
She felt as if she had an itch on one part of her body and couldn't help wishing she could 'itch' it until the sensation passed.
She would soon have her hands under Vicente's clothes, too!
In the midst of all this, the waiters of that restaurant would have to wait for dozens of minutes outside that room, not understanding why their customers had left a 'do not disturb' sign at the entrance to that VIP room.
But the princess was there, so they must have been taking care of very serious business of great importance to the kingdom!
So, a whole hour passed before Vicente and Lina finally received their food, which had been remade twice while they were 'negotiating' with each other.
