I stayed there for five minutes, just watching Daisy, just absorbing up the sight, the sounds, the feelings. Daisy finished up the feeding and smiled down and Lana, who had fallen asleep. Daisy put her in the bed and came over to me, and I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her into my arms.
Our life had been pretty perfect, so day wonderful that I was glad we could have this life, could be together. We’d moved about an hour from the palace, our estate having been in the family for generations. It was perfect for us, with rolling hills and open lands, with a little farm for Daisy and I to immerse ourselves in and get
relaxed.
It was our little part of heaven.
I took her to our room since it was late, just wanted to hold her, to let her know she was always loved, safe, and protected. Once in the room I turned her around and started helping her out of her clothes. This wasn’t about sex. This was about making her feel comfortable, letting her relax while I did everything else.
I cupped her cheeks, stared into her eyes, and smiled. “If I could marry you again start from the beginning and prove to you over and over that you were mine, I’ do it in an instant.” She gave me the sweetest fucking smile. “I fall in love with you everyday.” I pulled her against me even more, held the back of her head, and just let the feelings embrace me. I pulled back and leaned down and kissed her until she was breathless and clinging to me. I lifted her in my arms and carried her to our bed, telling myself I shouldn’t be about to ravish her, but unable to stop myself.
She breathed out, wrapped her arms around me. This was what life was about. This was what living meant. Royalty or not, I was glad I’d followed my heart and not followed the path everyone else had set out for me.
Daisy was mine, and always would be.

MONDAY
(Time: 1:53 a.m.)
I kick off the sheets and glare at my alarm clock. It’s still fucking dark out and I know that knock. It’s the same frenzied little knock she’s done every other time she’s gotten me up at a ridiculous hour.
After a month and a half of this, you’d think I’d be used to dragging my ass out of bed in the middle of the night because my construction manager is losing her shit over some detail of a job. Doesn’t keep me from being grouchy as hell over it though.
I jerk open the door to find her standing there. Summer Davis. Yes, she’s every damn bit as pretty as her name.
Per usual, her hair is in a messy bun with a couple of pencils stuck in it. And per usual for this hour, she’s flushed and out of breath from her run up the four flights of stairs to get here.
With the elevator access to my penthouse floor automatically redirecting the rider back down to the lobby for clearance from the front desk, and Summer somehow managing to convince my night manager to risk early retirement by waking me up over a half dozen times her first two weeks after moving in, I decided to just give the woman her own security access code to get onto my floor via the fire escape stairwell.
