Towers and Thorns
Chapter 3
My heels click against the polished stone floor with every step that I take. Heavy thuds from boots coming closer behind me.
âI was just wondering when youâd join meâ, I say to the man behind me.
âHad to have a laugh at your poor time management skillsâ, Shadow replies, falling in to step with me.
âHilarious.â I roll my eyes.
âAlways am, your highness.â
Shadow opens the door to the grand dining hall with his head bowed to me. I walk in, a polite smile with teeth. To make it seen genuine. Or something. The wall opposite me has portraits of previous rulers. Ranging from the one before my mother to one from as early as the 18 hundreds. All in neat but extravagant golden frames. In front of the wall there is a long wooden table. Decorated cleanly with a white table cloth, flowers in pink and lilac and lit candles. My mother sits at the table. A crown decorates her head. I bow my head to her and make my way towards the table around the edge of the room. If Iâd look out the windows Iâd seen the flowerbeds in the garden. Full of red, white and pink roses. The afternoon sunlight casting the room in a warm yellow glow.
On my mum's left side sits the president, and on her right my father. There is an empty seat next to him. My seat. I hurry towards the chair. Shooting my mother a quick apology as I pass behind her. I sit down and smooth out my dress. My father gives me a stern look. Honestly, I deserved that.
âSorryâ, I mouth to him. He nods back. Apology accepted. I exhale. I look around at the other two tables. One to my left and the other to my right. The table to my right is designated to the families that are close to the crown. Thereâs the Callahans, the Riveras and Marshall and his parents, ew. At the table to my right is, oh god no. My cousins are sat smirking in my direction. Well, four out of five. My eldest cousin, Grace, keeps her head down. Eyes on the plate in front of her. Sheâs in a light pink dress that she thinks hides her already growing baby bump, it does nothing of the sort. A shadow passes behind her. No, not a shadow. A balaclava clad man who somehow blends in like a chameleon into the dim light of the dining hall. Heâs a shadow alright.
âHow kind of you to join us, your highnessâ, The president addresses. Earning him amused chuckles from various people in the room. My eyes dart to him.
âI do sincerely apologize. Iâm afraid that my poor time management skills have struck againâ, I answer. Causing many people in the room to laugh. Including a snicker from behind me. The corners of my mouth twitch upward. The president chuckles. The tension in the room eases. The conversations start flowing and I let out a breath. My mother and father are swept in to a conversation with the president. Theres a joke about tea. Something about a wall. I don't pay attention.
My eyes wander around the room again. They sweep past your cousins towards the door. Next to the door stands Sanchez, or Samir, which is his real name. His dark skin and neatly trimmed hair fits in like a piece of a puzzle with the rest of the room. Elegant but with the touch of "don't mess with me Im a bodyguard". Next to him on the other hand is a man who does the exact opposite. The mohawk on his head, an eyesore. His slightly rugged look may be appealing to some women. But in this context it stands out like a drop of blood on cotton. Even though thats the case he is far from ugly. Wait a minute. Isn't that? Yes its is. It is the bodyguard that Grace is rumored to have a relationship with. Why on earth is he here? We don't need the scandal to take fire once again. It has barley burned out.
I pry my eyes away from the man. Looking towards the table on my right instead. The Callahans are talking with the Riveras about something I can't hear. Marshalls parents are listening in to the conversation. But Marshall himself is staring at me. Shooting me a cocky grin as my eyes meet his. I look away in disgust. Supressing a shiver.
The first corse is served. It is some kind of soup with tiny vegetable squares floating around below the drizzle of oil. It tastes alright. It's nothing special. Apparently it's supposed to warm up the stomach before the main course. What nonsense. There are so many better options to serve as an appetizer. Especially when the President is visiting.
The main corse plays out the same way. Some kind of meat, grayish and dry. The royal family can't eat raw meat in case of food poisoning. I do it anyway. The chefs rules are much looser when the palace is empty of guests. The president keeps talking with my family. He goes on and on about something that I can't be bothered to listen to. Until my name is mentioned that is.
"What", I ask. Suddenly interested in the conversation.
"Would you consider yourself a republican or a liberal", the president asks me. The strained smile on his face tells me that it was the second time he asked.
"Im not allowed to vote, nor am i allowed to take a stand in politics", I answer. The answer had been drilled in to my very bones. I can't express myself politically. Especially not right now.
"Come on. This is just a friendly conversation between two acquaintances. Theres no need to follow such formalities." He pushes. I clench my fists under the table. Why can't he just drop it. My father tenses beside me as I open my mouth to speak.
"Like I said, I will not speak on the matter", I reply. A polite but stern answer. My father relaxes again. The president laughs and says something about rule following and I stop listening again.
Desert is served and I would like to be anywhere but in the dining hall. My cousins have had too much to drink. Probably something stronger than alcohol as well by the way they constantly disappear in to the bathroom and talk so loud that I can hear almost every word that they are saying. When I have finished my desert I politely excuse myself to get some fresh air and hurry out of the dining hall.
When I get into the corridor outside of the big door I take a deep breath. It finally feels like I can get enough oxygen. I walk towards the garden. Fresh evening air can't hurt. The roses should be blooming. A hand grips my wrist and tugs.

Towers and Thorns
Chapter 2
Lenses begin shuttering the moment that I step out into the light. My parents wave to the crowd that has formed outside the gates. I just smile, and breathe. Remember that part Victoria. I think to myself. Crowds have never been my cup of tea. But with my oldest cousins recent scandal it has been worse than ever. One wrong move and the reporters will write about if for weeks.
I continue walking along the gravel path towards the podium where an older man stands with his hands behind his back. He has two bodyguards on either side of him. Mum walks up the stairs, greeting the recently elected president with a handshake. He smiles at her with far too white teeth and bows down to kiss her hand. Next is my father and last, me. I walk towards him with a smile plastered on my face.
"Mr President", I greet him and extend my hand towards him. He takes my hand in a firm grip, a too firm grip. It makes my hand ache but I don't move a muscle. I feel Shadows eyes burning into my back as if he could sense my discomfort. The president lets go of my hand without saying a word and I move to the far side of the podium. Shadow follow suit and stands behind me. His frame is towering over mine and I feel the heat radiating from his body on to my back. It's a strangely comforting feeling.
My mother and The president hold their speech. They talk about how "We need to work together more than ever in these uncertain times" and "With this cooperation we will ensure that both England and The United States of America thrive towards a better, safer, future". I hardly listen. I may look in their direction and smile. But most of their speech fall on deaf ears. I am much too occupied with my aching right hand to pay much of it any mind. I massage the area between my thumb and pointer finger absentmindedly behind my back. That's when I feel a large, warm, hand wrap around my wrist. I twitch at the unexpected feeling before relaxing in to his grip. Shadow twists my hand slowly, checking for any serious damage, I suppose, and rubs the sides of my fingers gently before letting my hand go.
When they had finished speaking and had given the photographers plenty of time to take pictures of them shaking hands and holding their joint hands up into the air, they left the podium. Walking past me on the way to the garden. My mother walking first and The president as well as my father walking after her. All of their respective guards following close behind. Me, on the other hand, walk back towards the palace. It's not mandatory for me to walk with the president through the garden. Even if it would provide a good image to see me speaking with the president, it's best that I don't. You don't need to make a fool out of yourself, Victoria.
I walk down the stairs to the podium but as I reach the fourth step my flat slips off the edge. I feel myself fall forward, my stomach sinking. Two hands catch me by the waist and hip setting me upright on the next step. My eyes widen and I pause before taking the next step down. The smile gone from my lips. I gather myself again and smile towards the crowd outside the gate. I continue walking towards the palace. Back stiff and smile faltering.
"You okay", Shadow whispers. His warm breath hitting my ear through his balaclava.
"Yeah", I breathe and wave to the crowd outside the gate.
This is going to be gold for the news articles tomorrow morning. I can already imagine the headlines. "The princess of England, falling head over heals" and "Knight in shining armor, the princess saved by her bodyguard".
The doors closes behind me and I run a hand through my hair. Well more like half my hair since I used my right hand out of habit and the pain made me tense up. I turn around to face Shadow but he is nowhere to be seen. I swear to god, that man can disappear into thin air. Just as I finish that thought I hear someone clear their throat behind me. There he stands, with an icepack in his hand.
"Oh, thank you", I mumble, reaching out for the icepack.
"Ill do it", Shadow replies, placing the icepack on my hand gently and wrapping it in place with a piece of cloth.
"We don't need you to be all black and blue in time for dinner, your highness", he continued. He clearly didn't trust your medical skills. You suppose that he was right not to since your first aid skills consist of bandaids.
"Right, dinner", I mutter. As if a stroll in the park wasn't enough, we had to have dinner with The president too. Great. More opportunities to make a fool out of yourself. Exactly what I need right now.
"Don't worry, by next week they will have forgotten all about your little tumble", Shadow interrupts my thoughts. Do I have to add mind reading to the list of things that this man seems to be able to do.
"Maybe a few months ago. But after the scandal theres no chance in hell that they'll let this opportunity for more gossip pass them by", I sigh and look down at the floor.
Of all the things that my cousins have done. This takes the cake. My eldest cousin fell pregnant. Under normal circumstances this would be wonderful, but she isn't married. After a text between her best friend and her got leaked to the press, with a picture of a positive pregnancy test, the whole world has been asking who the father is. The most popular rumor, her own bodyguard. Which obviously isn't helping my current situation.
"Letting you fall wouldn't have been a good look either", He says, bringing me back to reality.
"No it wouldn't, I suppose. Im sorry. Im just under a lot of stress right now. Not that it justifies it", I apologize and take a deep breath. I glance up at him. His brown eyes looking back at me. His usually cold eyes soften ever so slightly.
"It's alright, your highness."
I sit in front of my mirror putting mascara on my eyelashes. My right hand feeling considerably better. Still sore but, considerably better. In thirty minutes I need to have dinner with the man who caused the damage, just great. I put the mascara wand back in its tube and stand up from my vanity. The lilac dress Im wearing slides back down my figure, the shimmery fabric contouring my body in the light. My hair is curled and put up into a bun. Everything is flawless, just as it is supposed to be. I sigh and walk to the wall mounted mirror. The gilded frame reflects the dim light. I give myself a once over in the mirror, straighten out my dress around my bust and wipe some gloss out of the corner of my lips. I take a deep breath and turn around, straight into something solid.
"What the-", I look up and meet a pair of dark brown eyes. The eyes are outlined by blond lashes. How have I never noticed that before?
"Better not finish that sentence. Would be inappropriate, donât you think", Shadow suggests, the corners of his eyes crinkling briefly.
"Sneaking up on me isnât", I ask tilting my head to the side and crossing my arms over my chest.
"I would hardly call that sneaking", he replies, crossing his arms and leaning forward.
"Oh yeah? What would you call it then",
"Checking up on you", he replies, grabbing my right arm gently. "Howâs your hand doing", he continues. I clear my throat.
"Fine, a bit sore still", I answer. His fingers trace over the bones in my hand. I swallow and advert my eyes. They drift towards the opposite wall. Towards the clock. Shit.
"We need to go", I exclaim and wrench my hand out of his grip. I rush towards the door. Purple silk whirling around my ankles as I hurry out the door.

Towers and Thorns
Chapter 1
"Do you have to keep bending the rules", he asks from the doorway to my room. I scoff at the question.
"This is hardly bending the rules. The skirt is just above knee length", I answer, glaring at the balaclava clad man stood before me.
"Not sure I agree with that, your highness", his cold eyes scanning my figure. I groan and shove him out the door. What's the matter with him anyway.
I walk over to my closet and stare at the skirts. Apparently the light blue one I had on was "inappropriate". I pick out a white, patterned one instead and hope that it is acceptable. I roll my eyes. The bodyguard I had before him, before Shadow, wouldn't have batted an eye at that skirt. But at the same time he was off fucking a maid in some linen closet while Marshall ambushed me in that corridor that night and kissed me. The memory makes goosebumps spread over my body, and not the good kind.
Marshall seems to think that he is entitled to me. Just because my parents didn't say an outright no when his parents talked to them about marriage, he's disgusting.
I tried to tell my father that I didn't want the kiss and that Marshall kissed me without my consent but he wouldn't have it. "Think about how this could reflect on your mothers reputation. Sneaking off, kissing boys." That's what he had to say about the matter. Speaking about me as if I was a young, rebellious teenager. I am, in fact, an adult. I have been for a good while now, half a year at least. I went through my teen years without any major scandals. The same can't be said for my cousins.
I open the door and I am faced with arms crossed over a broad chest clad by a black t-shirt, tight enough to reveal strong shoulders and muscular arms, and cold eyes staring down at me from the gap in his balaclava.
"Better", I ask, glaring up at Shadow.
"Much", he replies and steps aside.
Shadow opens the door to the dining hall for me and I nod as a thank you to him. My father is sat near the end of the table, reading a newspaper and drinking coffee. He looks up as I enter.
"Good morning, Dad. Good morning, Sanchez", I say to the dark-skinned man stood behind him.
"Important day today", my father replies, not bothering with pleasantries.
"Im aware", I sit down at the chair opposite his and scoop a spoonful of scrambled eggs and another of bacon down on to my plate.
"Make sure to behave. We don't need the President or the American press to get the wrong impression", he reminds me for what feels like the hundredth time this week.
"I know", I acknowledge, eyes fixed on my plate. Fork moving the eggs around aimlessly.
"Good. We can't afford a scandal", my father adds and rises from his chair. Hand nudging my shoulder as he walks past me and out of the door. Sanchez a few steps behind him. The door shuts with a dull thud. I drop my fork on to my plate with a clink and put my head in my hands. Why does he always always talk about me like Im an accident waiting to happen. I feel Shadows eyes burning in to my back.
"You don't have to just stand there, you know. You can sit down", I turn my head to look at him. His brown eyes meeting mine before walking slowly over towards the chair next to mine. Pulling it out and turning it so that he faces me. He sits down. Arms crossed over his chest and one of his legs resting on his knee. I pour some water in to my glass and do the same to his. Shadows eyes still boring in to mine. I sigh.
"Whats the matter", I ask him. Something clearly occupying his mind.
"Do you have a drinking problem or something, your highness", he questions me.
"What? No", I shriek. How could he think such a thing.
"A guy just kissed me at the last event and my dad thinks Im going to go into a late teenage rebellion. Besides, you would have noticed if I had a drinking problem by now", I continue rambling, shaking my head.
"Guess you're right", he replies. His voice having and unreadable tone. My eyes move towards the grandfather clock at the other end of the room. It reads half past ten. Shit. I stand up and the chair almost tips behind me. Shadow rises, eyes darting around the room to find the source of my sudden movement.
"Im gonna be late", I clarify and hurry out the door. Shadow a few steps behind me.
I make it to the front door with less than a minute to spare. My parents are stood talking and turn around when I approach with quick steps. I come to a halt behind them. Smiling at my mother. She smiles back and turns towards the men beside the door. Sanchez and Millard are on either side of the door. Ready to follow their queens order. My mother nods to them and the doors open. I face the light erupting from the gap and put on a smile that I hope looks natural. The forgotten breakfast on my plate makes itself reminded as my stomach churns. I feel Shadows eyes burn into the back of my head and I step outside into the light.

As some of you may know, this used to be a fanfiction. I have rewritten it, but many elements still remain. English is not my first language so if you find any grammatical or spelling errors you are more than welcome to let me know. With that said I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you in the next one. /Polt

Hey everyone! After much thought, I have decided to rewrite Towers and Thorns in a non fanfiction, non reader point of view. Writing from a reader perspective has caused a lot of struggle and lack of motivation to continue writing. Therefore, I will rewrite the story with my own characters instead. My bodyguard character will be inspired by Simon Riley, just not be him. I will be keeping the other parts up for memories sake. I hope that you all understand and will continue to follow Towers and Thorns.
Love, Polt. â€ïžđ»

I barley plan out when I write. I go: Oh, That's a really nice scene! Or, That's gonna be absolutely amazing! Plan out where they should go chronologically and then just wing it. How am I ever going to string everything together? đ„Č

Johnny Runs Away (18+)

Service Dog Johnny Part 17 (full part list here)
âJohnny.â
The mouth nibbling your ear pulls away slightly, leaving you with a faint tickly sensation when he sighs contentedly against it. âAye?âÂ
Your sweater moves with the motion of his hand, doing something to your nipple that you canât see, but you can certainly feel, all the way down to your pussy. It feeds that simmer inside you, joins up and wraps around the ache his other hand is creating, with every purposeful roll of his wrist. Each movement of his fingers tightens something in your belly, and every breath from your lungs is a barely-audible plea that you know he understands.Â
âIâm close,â you mumble, shutting your eyes to process it, like if you can just focus hard enough, youâll be able to get yourself there.
Johnny presses his lips to the side of your neck, moves his chin against your nape like a cat wanting attention. âI know.â
You canât help grinding your hips backwards a little, as if pressing your ass into the hard front of his pants will convince him to fuck you a little harder. But heâs being so stingy about it all of a sudden, slowly massaging his fingertips against your g-spot, and then dragging them back out to slide down your thigh.
You lean your head back on his shoulder to get a look at him, watching his lashes kiss his cheekbone when he smiles down at you.Â
âAre you really going to be mean to me today?â you inquire.
His eyes flick upwards for just a second, towards your boyfriend on the other side of the couch. âIâm a miserable bastard, and itâs time you learn that.â
âNo youâre not.â You press your lips to the edge of his jaw, letting your happy sigh wash over his skin. âNot at all.â
Heâs wavering, you can feel it. You make a soft noise and cuddle a little further into the crook of his shoulder, as if youâre extremely comfortable there and not actually throbbing painfully between your open legs. He drags his hand down the inside of your thigh again, to run his thumb over your sticky clit.Â
Johnnyâs been handsy with you ever since he arrived a few hours ago â palming your ass, getting in your way on purpose â basically making himself into a massive nuisance just to get your attention, and guess what? It worked. You climbed right into his lap the first chance you got, and now he needs to live up to his end of the bargain. Itâs not fair for him to toy with your body and then leave it alone. He shouldnât know yet that you like that sort of thing.Â
He kisses your hair, getting a little more serious about those back-and-forths of his thumb. You enjoy how safe your body feels with his touch, how itâs no longer a thought in your mind that heâs doing this out of pity. Youâve formed this strange sort of sexual bond, and friendship, and it makes sense to your pussy that he gets to touch it whenever he wants.Â
Itâs entirely comfortable to be here, at this moment. Youâre warm, and wet, and getting touched exactly right in a nice, muscly lap. You could get used to this. Maybe itâd be okay to let yourself get a little bit used to it.Â
Oh, there it is, thereâs your orgasm. Itâs suddenly rising in you, and holding in your thighs for a moment. Itâs turning them hot and tingly as you start to breathe faster and shut your eyes for it.Â
âGood girl,â Johnny murmurs, and fuckingâ fucking pulls his hand away.Â
âCome on,â you whine, slamming your knees shut.Â
âMâsorry.â He kisses your hair again, squeezing your thigh apologetically.Â
Fucking MacTavish.Â
You exhale a frustrated breath, opening your legs again to try to tempt him to touch. Your hips are just going to twitch and hump the air a little, thereâs nothing you can do about that. But you work to gather yourself together mentally, and figure out the smartest way to get what you want.Â
âJohnny,â you murmur, tilting your chin up to get a view of his face.
He takes a deep breath before looking down at you, as if all of this isnât entirely his fault. âHmm?â
You ignore how nice his fingers feel, as he holds you to him and plays with your breast again. âHave I told you how nice you are?â
âMe?âÂ
Thereâs Simonâs quiet laugh a few feet away, as if he knows exactly what youâre trying to do.Â
âMhmm,â you tell Johnny, drawing out each syllable in a slow, breathy voice. âSo sweet, and thoughtful, and you smell really⊠Mmmm... Really good.â
Johnny raises his eyes to the ceiling, inhaling a long, frustrated breath. For what reason, you canât imagine, because youâre certainly doing nothing wrong.
âYour eyes are so prettyââ you start to say, and to your delight, Johnny starts peeling your sweater off. Excellent. Naked is good. Naked is fucking and orgasms.
âAlright, you smooth talker,â he grumbles, pushing your shoulders forward. âGo see your man.â
Your man?
Confused, you glance over at Simon, whoâs shaking his head a little bit and reaching for you. Did they make a plan to torture you?
âFine,â you huff, sliding off his lap. âSimon will let me cum. He likes me.â
âShouldnae have said that,â Johnny mutters, shoving you towards your boyfriend.Â
You try to ignore that splash of disappointment, but your brain is latched onto the unfairness of it. You earned that orgasm on Johnnyâs fingers, and you were patient and good. You donât want to touch yourself on Simonâs lap, you want Johnnyâs mouth on your neck and his fingers deep inside you, and you want to fuck him afterwards, too.
But apparently you're not getting what you want today.Â
The guilt does start to hit a little, as you get dragged onto your actual boyfriendÊŒs lap, and a less-scruffy mouth presses to your cheek. You're being selfish. You've gotten too used to your wants being met, and you really need to dial it back down to just needs. This is simply a wakeup call, like hello, hereÊŒs reality, sometimes your own fingers are all you get, and thatÊŒs okay.Â
âIÊŒm gonna let you cum, hmm?â Simon uses his hand to push your knees open, his other one cupping face to press your head back to his chest.Â
âYes,â you answer confidently, wandering your hand down between your legs.
But he intercepts it with his own, deftly entwining your fingers with his, and raising your joined hands to his mouth. âHmm,â he muses, kissing your knuckles one by one. âGood to know.â
His hand shifts under your chin to tilt your face up, planting a firm kiss on your lips. Surely heâs⊠heâs got to let you cum. Surely thatâs the logical place this is headed, when youâre already so turned on.Â
He determinedly holds your face up to his as he kisses you, so you canât actually watch him drop your hand back down to your side. You just feel him release it, and then you feel his hand wrapping around your breast with unusual ease, softly kneading it in the way of a man taking his time.Â
He makes a delicious sound into your mouth, low and breathy, while he enjoys the feel of your body in his palm. And then your hips are suddenly lifting on their own, because your nipple is giving you unexpected sensory feedback. Itâs a little pinch, you think, spearing something intense through your belly and making your clit ache. You close your legs without even thinking, flexing them together and squeezing down on emptiness, while Simon licks across your lower lip.
That was a bad thing to do, apparently, because it makes him take a moment to put you back where youâre supposed to be. He pushes your knees apart again and adjusts you in his lap a little, pulling his face back enough so you can see the friendly warning in his eyes. Itâs not serious, they project down at you from a few inches away, but you really need to stay where I put you.Â
âSorry,â you whisper, and then feel your face get hot when you realize Johnnyâs probably watching this whole thing. Up until now, sex with Johnny has been somewhat casual, and you havenât embarrassed yourself too badly. But things are always different, when itâs Simon. Suddenly your heartâs in it. Suddenly your brain is pushed to the side, and all you can think about are brown eyes and big hands, and being as good as you can possibly be. And youâre unused to the feeling of having Johnny nearby when youâre so focused on giving yourself to Simon.Â
So itâs a new experience for you, spreading your knees wide and making yourself extra convenient for Simon, when you know youâre being watched. Letting your love for him radiate from you in your soft body language and slow blinks, tracking over his features in the low light. Itâs just that you belong to him, and you canât hide that fact when youâre this wet and getting this kind of attention.Â
Simonâs thumb brushes across your cheek, as if heâs trying to soothe your pride away. Itâs stupid that youâre clinging to it, really. It should have been shattered long ago, the first time you fucked his friend for your own pleasure. But maybe itâs the sort of thing you have to give up in stages. Maybe itâs okay to let yourself feel a little exposed right now, because you are.Â
He watches your eyes while his fingers trail down your belly, and to your utter shock you suddenly feel them on your pussy. Some pitiful kind of noise escapes you, while your boyfriend slowly coats his fingertips in that puddle between your legs. He lowers his face to press kisses to your features â your cheekbone, your nose, your brow â and explores your pussy by feel while you clench imperceptibly. Â
He nudges his mouth against yours again, slippery fingertips finding your clit, and the issue of Johnny being there melts away into irrelevance. Who cares if your hand wanders into Simonâs hair to caress him back. Who cares if youâre making little noises of pleasure and curling your toes to cope. Itâs just going to happen, while your boyfriend rolls your clit under his finger. Youâre just going to have to cum for him for the first time, and probably cry after, and maybe during, and Johnnyâs going to watch your heart break and melt into Simonâs. Itâll be okay, heâll understand.Â
Simon seems to have a decent understanding of what heâs doing. His fingers donât fumble around, they go right to where theyâre supposed to over the top of your clit, giving you that steady, soft back and forth that makes perfect sense to your body. Thatâs how you get touched, in order to cum. Your clit is nice and wet, and youâre already so close thanks to Johnny, thereâs nothing stopping it now. A tremor runs through your thighs, but you keep them spread up for him and try to stay in place, even when your abs contract and release on their own. You take some deep breaths and let him kiss you, and then your body starts to lock down in anticipation.Â
âGonna cum,â you mumble against his lips. âBabyâ hhhhââ
Simonâs exhale washes over your cheek, and youâre just processing that it sounded almost relieved, when his touch disappears.Â
âWha? Baby, nââ you start to protest, but then your pussy is getting filled up with two long fingers, and the words choke off into nothing as you screw your eyes shut and instinctively roll your hips up to meet them.Â
Actual tears prick your eyes at how good it is, how much everything hurts in the best way, after getting edged several times. You can cum like this, if heâll just give you a little more. If heâll switch those in-and-outs to some deep presses into the right spot, itâll send you to glory.Â
âMy girl,â Simon whispers, working his hand down to get a deeper angle.Â
No humiliation flares to life. No self consciousness can even maifest in the bubble of sensation youâre currently experiencing. Everything is so encompassing that it takes you longer than it should, to realize heâs not trying to make you cum. If anything, heâs going slow on purpose so you wonât.Â
Your eyes spring open with a wash of water when his fingers pull out of you and simply move up to your breast again.Â
Did you do something wrong? Are they both punishing you for something you didnât know you did? Making you trust them, and then being so fucking meanâ
âWhy donât you go see Johnny?â Simon murmurs, giving your forehead one last kiss. âGet you something better than fingers.â
âI think you should let her have something of yours,â comes Johnnyâs voice, before you can begin to form a reply. âCross my heart, I wonât look.â
You can practically feel Simonâs pulse begin to race, but youâre so messed up with need that youâre having trouble processing the situation. You only begin to register whatâs about to happen, when Simon lifts you off his lap and helps turn you to face him, but then all you can think about is cumming. Heâs getting his pants undone somewhere beneath your ass, but your pussy hurts. Your clit aches, youâre cramping deep inside, and you need to get filled.Â
Simon takes care of it. He lines himself up for you, grabs your ass with one hand to help you find exactly what your pussy needs, encouraging you to sink down onto something warm and thick, and then wraps you up in his arms.Â
It finally clicks into place for you, as you breathe in the smell of his skin and feel your cunt flutter around him in anticipation. Simon is letting you fuck him, for the first time. He already had his first time with you, but this is your first time with him. The first time heâs giving you his body for your pleasure.
Youâre beyond caring what sorts of noises youâre moaning into his shirt collar, past worrying about if he needs to stop, or if youâre being too needy. You drag your hips up and down a few times, letting your pleasure come out of you and coat the man you love in your wetness, and then you just cum.
Your lungs know itâs happening before anything else does. They expand and then hold, and the next drop of your hips feels so good, as something deep inside you turns itself inside out. With a debilitating roll of sensation, you let out a pained cry and feel your cunt begin to brand itself onto him with pulse after pulse of your release.Â
It streams down your limbs and explodes in your belly, and itâs Simon whoâs got you this time. His arms are the ones holding you steady, his body is whatâs giving you this mind-emptying bliss. It almost hurts to cum on something that big, but itâs a good kind of hurt. Itâs that deep ache that has you groaning into the crook of his neck in the hopes that he wonât make you stop. It feels too good to stop. Youâre not capable of stopping, you just need to keep lowering yourself onto him until you burn out or cum again.Â
But he makes you stop. Right when youâre beginning to latch onto that heat and mold it into your next orgasm, his hands wrap around your hips to hold you still, shoving himself deep inside you.Â
You canât help the anguished little cry you do, eyes shut tight and trying to mind control him to let you keep going. It feels too good to stop. Itâs not fair. Â
Simonâs arms are steady as he wraps you up in them. One comes around your shoulders to hold you tight to his body, and he cups the back of your head with the other, keeping your cheek on his shoulder, and your pussy down on his hardness.Â
âYou okay?â you find the presence of mind to whisper, trembling with everything your body is feeling.
âYeah. Don't want to cum.â
âYou need to cum,â you counter, because he does, you can feel that much.
âShh.â His palm smoothes up and down your naked back, and he dips his chin down to kiss your cheek. âLet me have a moment with you, and then youâll go back to Johnny.â
You try to peel your cheek off his shoulder and get a look at him, but the movement is useless with that heavy hand on the back of your head. He canât possibly expect you to just leave him like this and go to the next guy. Thatâs not how this works, because you want his cum first. You need to get his cum, because it means you did a good job. Whatâs the point of anything, if your body canât be useful?
Your hand climbs up to his face, but instead of the rough five oâclock shadow you expect to find, the first thing you feel is something wet. He twists his face away, but itâs too late. You felt that line of dampness on the edge of his jaw.
His fingers begin to stroke your hair, so you comfort him too. You run your hand across the muscled line of his shoulder, wishing there was something you could say to make it better. Maybe someday when youâre better with words, you can let him know how it feels to have him connected to you like this, to have both of your hearts wide open and witnessing each other. But all you can do right now is caress his neck and plant a little kiss on the skin you can reach, and whisper that you love him. That heâs doing such a good job, and you see his efforts. You see him.Â
Finally you feel his hand lift to swipe at his face. He pats your ass with a, âGo see Johnny.â
The mix of emotions and sex are impairing as usual, but you manage to drag yourself off his still-hard dick, and he doesnât want eye contact, so you just do what heâs asking. You turn your eyes to Simonâs friend, who seems to know that itâs his turn, and offers you a sympathetic smile.Â
So you climb back into Johnnyâs lap and rest your drippy pussy against the hardness in his pants, and hug him.Â
âDoinâ alright?â he asks, hugging you back because heâs a very nice person.Â
âYeah.â
âDone for now, or want more?â
âMore,â you tell him, lining up your faces for a kiss. âEverything. All of it.â You want to drown in Johnny now.Â
He removes his clothes more or less around you, letting you keep contact and kiss him while he works. You know now, why he didnât let you cum before. He let you think he was being mean, in order to give you an experience you never thought youâd have. Johnny gave that to you, for no reason other than he knew it would make you happy, and he was the only one who could.Â
The noise he makes when you take him into yourself is so Johnny. Itâs half groan, half breathy laugh, mirroring the way he seems to see his sexuality as a game. He just wants you to play with him, thatâs all. A little tug on his hair, a little smile while you kiss him, he eats it up. So you do it. You play with him for the noises, because he likes it.
You canât get enough of him, thatâs the problem. Yeah, the sex is fun, and necessary at times, but you just like having him in your house. You like those hands that never hurt you, the sunshine in his voice, those eyes that know when to pretend they donât see things. Itâs just who he is.Â
Johnny nips at your lower lip, and then pulls back when you gasp, just to get a look at your face and make sure he didnât bite you too hard. You just touch your hand to your mouth and laugh at his expression, ignoring the way your heart flips in your chest as you tell him, âYouâre too lovable for your own good.â
He makes a dismissive sort of noise and squeezes your ass hard with one hand. âYou let me hit it from behind, and weâll see about that.â
So thatâs how you end up on your knees on the couch, with your cheek pressed to the top edge of it while he devastates your insides. You canât look at him or kiss him now, and you donât like that, but he slides his hand down your stomach to touch your clit for you, and it changes your perspective rather quickly.Â
He makes you cum like that. Leaned over, taking his cock and throbbing under his fingers while you gasp and spasm through your orgasm. They both get to hear exactly how much you enjoy getting your second fucking of the night, cumming on your boyfriendâs friend because itâs just what you do now.Â
You have a sex life again, whether you deserve it or not. Itâs uncommon and probably weird and dirty to most people, but youâre starting to come to terms with it. Itâs easier to rationalize it to yourself, when your mind is whiting out in splotches because Johnny wonât stop touching you between the legs. Heâs hitting something different, in this position. Itâs something swollen and cramping that feels like itâs made to be hit, even if your knees are trying to knock together to dial down the intensity.Â
Itâs not enough. You canât escape anything thatâs happening to your body, and to your utter mortification, your next orgasm waits just long enough for you to fully comprehend the fact that youâre squirting right before it hits.Â
You try to apologize, but it doesnât come out right while the pleasure whips through you. Itâs unintelligible gasps and half-words that donât mean anything, but heâs still fucking you good and hard and not giving you a single second to get a handle on yourself, and thenâ
Oh, god.Â
Itâs another one. Splashing down your leg, he makes you cum it all out until your ears are ringing and you canât handle any more. You have to stay there past your outer limits for few agonizing moments, because all you can do is whine and whimper, and you canât figure out how to make it stop. But then you have the presence of mind to sling your arm back and tap your own thigh a few times, and though you canât reach him, he understands.Â
Breathing hard, Johnny pulls his hand out from between your legs and slides out of you with a, âThat was fuckingâ hot as shit.â
âGlad youâreâ ahhâŠâ You curse, feeling more of your own cum drip down your leg. ââŠentertained.â
He steps back to help you off the damp couch, and itâs no surprise to find your legs useless and vibrating with trembles.Â
âDid that feel good?â
You turn to face him, trying to blink away the haze in your mind, because he still hasnât cum. Neither of them have, and you need someone to cum in you. âHow about you sit down, and Iâll tell you?â
Johnny follows orders, dropping his bare ass halfway on that wet spot for you. You just give Simon a quick glance to make sure heâs not disgusted or something â he just smiles â so youâre good to go.Â
You drop to your knees and get yourself between Johnnyâs legs, sighing up at him.Â
âJohnny,â you start, taking his cock in your hand and getting your face a little closer to it.
âMm?â He asks warily. Judging by his expression, heâs not sure if youâre mad at him or not.Â
You give him a slow stroke. âThat felt so good, I canât even tell you.â
Oh, that grin is beautiful. He slouches his hips forward and widens his legs to make it easier to get him what he deserves â a nice soft mouth, and pretty eyes.
You let out a happy breath, and press your lips, and then your tongue, to his cock. âJohnny, I like you.â
You just barely catch the way his smile drops away, as you take him into your mouth. Heâs in it now. No more flirting, no more foreplay. Heâs ready for you to get him to your throat, and let him cum in it.
It takes a little practice, because itâs been a long time since youâve done this very deep. You drape your elbows over his thighs and take your time with it, telling yourself that heâll cum when heâs ready, but until then youâre going to experiment with your gag reflex a little.Â
Johnny rests his hand on your upper arm, running his thumb over your shoulder while you suck your own cum off him. It feels dirty. It feels fun. It feels like you could do this for hours, if heâd let you.Â
Unfortunately, it doesnât take hours. It takes you finally getting him comfortably into your throat, and within two bobs of your head, he tightens his hand into the back of your neck and cums loud.Â
Finally.Â
Youâre swallowing it down and gagging just a little, getting his load in your body where it belongs. You make sure to swallow as much as you can before you pull your mouth off and blink happily up at him, satisfied at his still-heaving chest and closed eyes. There you go, MacTavish. Thatâs what you deserve. Itâs the least you can do, really.
âStill with us?â you prompt.Â
âAye.â He doesnât open his eyes, just runs his hand down your arm and squeezes it.Â
Oh, heâs being lazy in the afterglow. Thatâs a beautiful thing.Â
âYou know, um. We have a spare bed now. You can stay over tonight, if youâd like.â
Johnny opens his eyes to look down at you for a second, then over at Simon. His hand slips off your arm.
âThe bedroomâs all set up and stuff,â you tell him brightly. âNo more sleeping on the couch if you donât want to.â
âAwfully kind of you,â he returns, pushing your shoulders back so he has room to get up.Â
And thatâs⊠not at all what you expected him to say.Â
You get out of his way while he pulls his clothes back on, just kneel there, bare ass naked on the carpet while you try to understand why thereâs this weird silence now. Simon gets up too, and you barely notice that heâs collected your clothes until he helps you to your feet and pushes them into your hands.Â
âCâmon, you,â he says soothingly. âCuppa in the kitchen.â
You glance between them while you throw your things on, waiting until Johnnyâs shut in the bathroom to whisper, âWhat did I say wrong?âÂ
Your boyfriend guides you out of the room with an arm around your back. âNothing, love. Heâs just not ready for it.â
âNot ready for what? A comfortable bed instead of the couch?â
Simonâs silent for a minute while he gets the kettle going. He looks like heâs about to say something, but then you hear Johnny yell from across the house, âThanks for the supper, going home to sleep it off. Gânight.â
âWhat the fuck?â you insist, flinging your arm out for emphasis after the front door closes.Â
âJohnnyâs been by himself a long time.â
âNo one likes being alone,â you argue. âI think I did something wrong, and I think you know what I did, and youâre not telling me.â
âNo.â
âThen why didnât he stay?â
âDunno.â Simonâs doing that thing where he stays incredibly calm while youâre having a major breakdown, and you donât appreciate it at all.Â
You cross your arms, furiously blinking your eyes so theyâll stop burning and you can think. âI donât understand why heâd run away like that.â
âYou donât get to decide that what people need are the things you want them to need. Tea?â
Shaking your head, you glare at the steaming water while he pours it. âI worked so hard on that room today.â
He knows that already. Itâs childish of you to say it, because he was the one helping you set up the bed frame, and he carried the mattress in. He worked on it with you, so why isnât he upset too?
Simon reaches out to run the back of his finger down your cheek, talking to you gently. âWas it a gift for Johnny, or does he owe you for it?â
Owe you? Of course not, thatâs not how it works. You were just expecting that youâd do the work, and then heâ
Okay. Maybe you had some expectations about getting some affirmation about it.
Your boyfriend pulls you into his chest to rest his chin on your head. âThe room looks lovely.â
It does. It does look good. And now it doesnât even matter.
âI feel like heâs going to leave,â you admit, attempting to swallow down the pressure in your throat. âI feel like this is him leaving.â
Simon doesnât say anything to that, just continues to hold you, because he knows you might be right.Â

Towers and Thorns (Fanfic vers)
tags: bodyguard!Ghost x royal!reader, older Ghost, first fic, might be crappy idk, multiple parts, might be nsfw down the line, english is not my first language so feel free to correct me. đ»
Part 1 đ» Part 2 đ» Part 3
Your heels click against the polished stone floor with every step that you take. Heavy thuds from boots coming closer behind you.
âI was just wondering when youâd join meâ, you say to the man behind you.
âHad to have a laugh at your poor time management skillsâ, Ghost replies, falling in to step with you.
âHilarious.â You roll your eyes.
âAlways am, your highness.â
Ghost opens the door to the grand dining hall with his head bowed to you. You walk in, a polite smile with teeth. To make it seen genuine. Or something. The wall opposite you has portraits of previous rulers. Ranging from the one before your mother to one from as early as the 18 hundreds. All in neat but extravagant golden frames. In front of the wall there is a long wooden table. Decorated cleanly with a white table cloth, flowers in pink and lilac and lit candles. At the tale sits your mother. A crown decorates her head. You bow your head to her and make your way towards the table around the edge of the room. If youâd look out the windows youâd see the flowerbeds in the garden. Full of red, white and pink roses. The afternoon sunlight casting the room in a warm yellow glow.
On your mothers left side sits the president, and on her right your father. There is an empty seat next to him. Your seat. You hurry towards the chair. Shooting your mother a quick apology as you pass by behind her. You sit down and smooth out your dress. Your father gives you a stern look.
âSorryâ, you mouth to him. He nods back. Apology accepted. You exhale. You look around at the other two tables. One to your left and the other to your right. The table to your right is designated to the families that are close to the crown. Thereâs the Callahans, the Makarovs and Marshall and his parents, ew. At the table to your right is, oh god no. Your cousins are sat smirking in your direction. Well, four out of five. You eldest cousin, Grace, keeps her head down. Gaze on the plate in front of her. Sheâs in a light pink dress that she thinks hides her already growing baby bump, it does nothing of the sort. A shadow passes behind her. No, not a shadow. A balaclava clad man who somehow blends in like a chameleon into the dim light of the dining hall. Heâs a ghost alright.
âHow kind of you to join us, your highnessâ, The president addresses. Earning him amused chuckles from various people in the room. Your eyes dart to him.
âI do sincerely apologize. Iâm afraid that my poor time management skills have struck againâ, you answer. Causing many people in the room to laugh. Including a snicker from behind you. The corners of your mouth twitch upward. The president chuckles. The tension in the room eases. The conversations start flowing and you let out a breath. Your mother and father are swept in to a conversation with the president. Theres a joke about tea. Something about a wall. You don't pay attention.
Your eyes wander around the room again. They sweep past your cousins towards the door. Next to the door stands Gaz, or Kyle, which is his real name. His dark skin and neatly trimmed hair fits in like a piece of a puzzle with the rest of the room. Elegant but with the touch of don't mess with me Im a bodyguard. Next to him on the other hand is a man who does the exact opposite. The mohawk on his head standing out like an eyesore. His slightly rugged look may be appealing to some woman. But in this context it stands out like a drop of blood on cotton. Even though thats the case he is far from ugly. Wait a minute. Isn't that? Yes its is. It is the bodyguard that Grace is rumored to have a relationship with. Why on earth is he here? We don't need the scandal to take fire once again. It has barley burned out.
You pry your eyes away from the man. Looking towards the table on your right instead. The Callahans are talking with the Makarovs about something you can't hear. Marshalls parents are listening in to the conversation. But Marshall himself is staring at you. Shooting you a cocky grin as your eyes meet his. You look away in disgust.
The first corse is served. It is some kind of soup with tiny vegetable squares floating around below the drizzle of oil. It tastes alright. It's nothing special. Apparently it's supposed to warm up the stomach before the main course. What nonsense. There are so many better options to serve as an appetizer. Especially when the President is visiting.
The main corse plays out the same way. Some kind of meat, grayish and dry. The royal family cant eat raw meat in case of food poisoning. You do it anyway. The chefs rules are much looser when the palace is empty of guests. The president keeps talking with your family. He goes on and on about something that you cant be bothered to listen to. Until your name is mentioned that is.
"What", you ask. Suddenly interested in the conversation.
"Would you consider yourself a republican or a liberal", the president asks you. The strained smile on his face tells you that it was the second time he asked.
"Im not allowed to vote, nor am i allowed to take a stand in politics", you answer. The answer had been drilled in to your very bones. You cant express yourself politically. Especially not right now.
"Come on. This is just a friendly conversation between two acquaintances. Theres no need to follow such formalities." He pushes. You clench your fist under the table. Why cant he just drop it. Your father tenses beside you as you open your mouth to speak.
"Like I said, I will not speak on the matter", you reply. A polite but stern answer. Your father relaxes again. The president laughs and says something about rule following and you stop listening again.
When dessert rolls around you would like to be anywhere but in the dining hall. Your cousins have had too much to drink. Probably something stronger than alcohol as well by the way they constantly disappear in to the bathroom and talk so loud that you can hear almost every word that they are saying. When you have finished your desert you politely excuse yourself to get some fresh air and hurry out of the dining hall.
When you get into the corridor outside of the big door you take a deep breath. It finally feels like you can get enough oxygen. You walk towards the garden. Fresh evening air cant hurt. The roses should be blooming. A hand grips your wrist and tugs.

Part 1 đ» Part 2 đ» Part 3
Lenses begin shuttering the moment that you step out into the light. Your parents wave to the crowd that has formed outside the gates. You just smile, and breathe. Remember that part. You think to yourself. Crowds have never been your cup of tea. But with your oldest cousins recent scandal it has been worse than ever. One wrong move and the reporters will write about if for weeks.
You continue to walk along the gravel path towards the podium where an older man stands with his hands behind his back. He has two bodyguards on either side of him. Your mother walks up the stairs, greeting the recently elected president with a handshake. He smiles at her with far to white teeth and bows down to kiss her hand. Next is your father and last, you. You walk towards him with a smile plastered on your face.
"Mr President", you greet him and extend your hand towards him. He takes your hand in a firm grip, a too firm grip. It makes your hand ache but you don't move a muscle. You feel Ghosts eyes burning into your back as if he could sense your discomfort. The president lets go of your hand without saying a word and you move to the far side of the podium. Ghost following you and stands behind you. His frame towering over yours and you feel the heat from his body radiate into your back. It's a strangely comforting feeling.
Your mother and The president hold their speech. They talk about how "We need to work together more than ever in these uncertain times" and "With this cooperation we will ensure that both England and The United States of America thrive towards a better, safer, future". You hardly listen. You may look in their direction and smile. But most of their speech fall on deaf ears. You are much too occupied with your aching right hand to pay much of it any mind. You massage the area between your thumb and pointer finger absentmindedly behind your back. That's when you feel a large, warm, hand wrap around your wrist. You twitch at the unexpected feeling before relaxing in to his grip. Ghost twists your hand slowly, checking for any serious damage, you suppose, and rubs the sides of your fingers gently before letting your hand go.
When they had finished speaking and had given the photographers plenty of time to take pictures of them shaking hands and holding their joint hands up into the air the left the podium. Walking past you on the way to the garden. Your mother walking first and The president as well as your father walking after her. All of their respective guards following close behind. You, on the other hand, walk back towards the palace. It's not mandatory for you to walk with the president through the garden. Even if it would provide a good image to see you speaking with the president, it's best that you don't. You don't need to make a fool out of yourself.
You walk down the stairs to the podium but as you reach the fourth step your flat slips off the edge. You feel yourself fall forward, your stomach sinking. Two hands catch you by the waist and hip setting you upright on the next step. Your eyes widen and you pause before taking the next step down. The smile gone from your lips. You gather yourself again and smile towards the crowd outside the gate. You continue walking towards the palace. Back stiff and smile faltering.
"You okay", Ghost whispers. His warm breath hitting your ear through his balaclava.
"Yeah", you breathe and wave to the crowd outside the gate.
This is going to be gold for the news articles tomorrow morning. You can already imagine the headlines. "The princess of England is falling head over heals" and "Knight in shining armor, the princess saved by her bodyguard".
The doors close behind you and you run a hand through your hair. Well more like half your hair since you use your right hand out of habit and the pain makes you tense up. You turn around to face Ghost but he is nowhere to be seen. I swear to god, that man can disappear into thin air, you think to yourself. Just as you finish that thought you hear someone clear their throat behind you. There he stands, with an icepack in his hand.
"Oh, thank you", you mumbled, reaching out for the icepack.
"Ill do it", Ghost replied, placing the icepack on your hand gently and wrapping it in place with a piece of cloth.
"We don't need you to be all black and blue in time for dinner, your highness", he continued. He clearly didn't trust your medical skills. You suppose that he was right not to since your first aid skills consist of bandaids.
"Right, dinner", you muttered. As if a stroll in the park wasn't enough, you had to have dinner with The president too. Great. More opportunities to make a fool out of yourself. Exactly what you need right now.
"Don't worry, by next week they will have forgotten all about your little tumble", Ghost interrupts your thoughts. Do I have to add mind reading to the list of things that this man seems to be able to do, you think to yourself.
"Maybe a few months ago. But after the scandal theres no chance in hell that they'll let this opportunity for more gossip pass them by", you sigh and look down at the floor.
Of all the things that your cousins have done. This takes the cake. Your eldest cousin fell pregnant. Under normal circumstances this would be wonderful, but she isn't married. After a text between her best friend and her got leaked to the press, with a picture of a positive pregnancy test, the whole world has been asking who the father is. The most popular rumor, her own bodyguard. Which obviously isn't helping your current situation.
"Letting you fall wouldn't have been a good look either", He says, bringing you back to reality.
"I know. Im sorry. Im just under a lot of stress right now. Not that it justifies it", you apologize and take a deep breath. You glance up at him. His brown eyes look back at you. His usually cold eyes soften ever so slightly.
"It's alright, your highness."
You sit in front of your mirror putting mascara on your eyelashes. Your right hand feels considerably better. Still sore but considerably better. In thirty minutes you need to have dinner with the man who caused the damage, just great. You put the mascara wand back in its tube and stand up from your vanity. The lilac dress you are wearing slides back down your figure, the shimmery fabric contouring your body in the light. Your hair is curled and put up into a bun. Everything is flawless, just as it is supposed to be. You sigh and walk to the wall mounted mirror. The frame reflects the dim light. You give yourself a once over in the mirror, straighten out your dress around your bust and wipe some gloss out of the corner of your lips. You take a deep breath and turn around, straight into something solid.
"What the-", you look up and meet a pair of dark brown eyes. The eyes are outlined by blond lashes. How have you never noticed that before?
"Better not finish that sentence. Would be inappropriate, donât you think", Ghost suggests, the corners of his eyes crinkling briefly.
"Sneaking up on me isnât", you ask tilting your head to the side and crossing your arms over your chest.
"I would hardly call that sneaking", he replies, crossing his arms and leaning forward.
"Oh yeah? What would you call it then",
"Checking up on you", he replies, grabbing your right arm gently. "Howâs your hand doing", he continues. You clear your throat.
"Fine, a bit sore still", you answer. His fingers trace over the bones in your hand. You swallow and advert your eyes. They drift towards the opposite wall. Towards the clock. Shit.
"We need to go", you exclaim and wrench your hand out of his grip. You rush towards the door. Purple silk whirling around your ankles as you hurry out the door.
