The Dragon Prince's Forbidden Affair novel Chapter 65

"Maybe..." It made me think that communication could have saved my engagement. If I knew from the beginning that he'd see other women and would stop once we were married, I probably would have been fine with that. Only because it's not like we were together before. It's better I wasn't with Lexus otherwise I wouldn't have just had sex with someone who cares about me. "Anyways I had sex with you because..."

"It's okay, you don't need to have a reason or need to tell me it if you do." But I did have a reason that I didn't mind sharing, I liked Cade, but it felt too soon to be with him.

I turned over with my back to him. "You knew right?"

He hesitated. "Only towards the end, I tried to get them to stop. They planned to but then they wouldn't because they're... ugh sorry I know they don't deserve to have secrets because of what they did but-"

"It's fine I don't want to know." Cade knew Lexus was cheating and that's probably why he tried so hard for me to see that I didn't love Lexus and that he didn't love me.

Pillow talk wasn't something Lexus would do with me but it was nice that Cade would. I needed someone to talk to. "I know you quit, I heard you yelling it at Lexus, where are you moving to?"

Cade turned onto his stomach. "I've been looking nearby. I have a lot I need to figure out. The king and queen say I can stay without working until I find a place.

"I hope you find a nice place and better job."

"Do you want me to go now?" He referred to leaving my room.

I didn't want him to leave. "No, you don't have to." I turned over to face him and he was smiling. Sex with Cade was better than sex with Lexus. Lexus might have been more experienced and better in that way but there was more emotion with me and Cade, so it meant more.

For the next couple weeks when I wasn't hanging out with Lydia, Stella, or Cindy I hung out with Calvin and Tam. When I wasn't hanging out with either of those groups I was with Cade. He went on patrols with me, we went on flights together, but we didn't have any more sex. The sexual tension was always there but we were taking things slow.

Cindy laughed. "When do you think, Cade is going to ask you to be his girlfriend?"

I shrugged. "I don't think either of us is worried about that right now. We both got cheated on after being in serious relationships. We don't need the commitment yet."

"I think that's a good idea." Lydia said. "I miss Hannah, she's been so busy the past couple days and we were already seeing each other less because of her new preparation to possibly become queen." I thought about how busy Lexus was but now I wasn't sure if he was busy with preparation to become king or with Aqua...
