Aline POV
Dominic was distant, something happened, and I need to know why. He decided to stay the night in Central City. It was unusual of him, but I decided to let it go… lately, he has been a little off, and I was sure that it had to be with the pressure he has on his shoulders to take over his father, and the pressure the council is putting on him to do it with a queen by his side.
A queen, he had not mentioned it, but certainly I was the obvious choice. If he doesn't pick me, then he will be forced to marry someone the council chooses for him, and I am certain, I am the lesser of two evils. At least he knows me, he is fond of me, and I am fond of him, we care for each other, and our s*x life if something off the charts.
Well, at first he regretted that night we first spent togeth
