Chapter 164
"You will go to bed faster if I help you. By now I thought you could trust that I have no intentions of bedding you. I will do nothing after helping you take off your dress," Killian said, watching Amelia from the chair which gave him a clear view of her struggling to get off her dress.
Amelia sighed, giving up her attempt to untie the back of her dress. It was tied as if she was never meant to take it off. She glanced at Killian eagerly waiting to help her. "Please help me," she said.
"See, that wasn’t so hard," Killian said, placing his cup on the table as he stood up. He walked over to where Amelia stood to help her.
"Are you drinking alcohol again?" Amelia frowned.
"No. It is water. I don’t plan on worrying you by constantly drinking alcohol even though alcohol doesn’t have the same effect on me as it does with your kind. I am only drinking it less to please you."
"If it has no effect on you then there is no problem with you drinking it," Amelia replied.
"Your mind will continue to picture me as your father who seems to drink a lot. I can do without drinking it unless it comes from the underworld. That one is exquisite. Did you wish to choke yourself before the wedding? Why is it so tight?" Killian asked as he looked at the knot before attempting to undo it.
Amelia closed her eyes after she felt Killian’s warm hands on her back. His touch sent a wave of emotions throughout her body and she was certain he felt her shudder. "Killian, I don’t want to prolong us having children after we are married," she said.
Killian looked up from the knot he was about to open to Amelia. "Did someone rush you?"
"No. It won’t benefit us or the Blackwell kingdom if we wait till I have a better relationship with you to have a child. It is not like this isn’t normal. Newlyweds start trying for a child on their wedding night. It is what everyone expects. Ow," Amelia winced after Killian pulled the strings of her dress.
"I didn’t know I was getting married to everyone and since when did you care for what everyone expected of you as a woman?" He asked, curious about what changed her mind so quickly.
"It won’t be before Fraser gets married and he will start trying to have his heir. If you get rid of him before he has an heir another one of my relatives will be named king unless I have a child to offer. Then we will face another issue. I cannot give up the child meant to take over the north so I will need to have two-Oww. Can you stop that?" Amelia asked, turning to face Killian.
