Princess Searched

[IsabellaRose]

You take a slow breath, forcing yourself to remain still.

"You have my word as a noble," you say, your voice controlled, measured. "But if that isn’t enough for you, then search me. If you think I carry a dagger, take it from me yourself."

The knight’s smirk widens, slow and knowing, as if he’d been waiting for you to say that.

"Very well, Princess." He steps closer, and your breath catches as the space between you disappears.

His gloved hand moves to your side, fingers pressing into your waist, skimming over the fabric of your gown as he feels for hidden blades. He is thorough, too thorough, taking his time as his hands slide over your ribs, down your arms, across your hips. His touch is firm, invasive, lingering longer than necessary, more the touch of a lover than a soldier.

You force yourself to stay still, your jaw clenched as his fingers trail down the curve of your thigh, reaching around and cupping your ass, pulling you against him. 

You are forced face to face with the knight, and his gaze never leaves your eyes despite his wandering hands. You are pressed hard against his body, feeling his armor pressing against you. He's holding you close, your bodies pressed together, his hands on your ass. 

You expected him to step back once he found nothing, but he doesn’t. Instead, his hand skims up, tracing the curve of your ass, up along your hips, over your tiny waist, up your ribcage, his hands cupping your breasts as they move upward. His palm flattens just below your collarbone, moving slowly, his breath a warm presence near your ear. He's not searching, he's enjoying.

"No dagger here," he murmurs, his voice rich with amusement. Mocking you. "But perhaps you have something dangerous concealed beneath your skirts." His smirk turns darker.

Your stomach coils with disgust, but you keep your expression unreadable. His game has changed, and you have to decide how to play it.
