Enjoy!

(Takes place few months after their marriage. NO KIDS)

M POV

"You look radiant, Your Majesty. It may seems like marriage has done good for you," King Mauro, from Italy, complimented.

I smiled, "I think so too. She has been such a beauty to my life, currently. I feel like she is stepping quite well to the shoes of a Queen."

"I agree, she is very smart and possesses such love for her country."

I smiled as I sipped some coffee. King Mauro, after a peaceful meeting for treaties and negotiations, we sat on my office's balcony. There, we could see the little picnic my wife had organized for this evening.

Queen Adalina, Princess Nicoletta and my wife were sitting in a white table and chairs. All laughing or smiling, looking like they were having nice conversations.

Once Princess Nicoletta caught us in the balcony she waved and King Maura smiled. America turned around too and grinned, making my heart skip a beat.

A POV

I didn't know Maxon and King Mauro were watching us. I blushed when I saw him handsomely sitting with his perfect navy blue suit. He looked so pristine and elegant, completely different to the Maxon I knew when we were by ourselves. Utterly funny, cute and irrevocably sexy.

"America is that your wedding ring?" Nicoletta asked taking my hand in hers.

"Yes" I said, beaming at my gold band with a small diamond in the middle. "And this is my engagement ring."

I showed them my right hand, where I wore the ring Maxon gave when he finally proposed.

"Oh, it's lovely," Queen Adalina said. "Are there any meanings behind the color?"

"Yes," I blushed. "It's our birthstones."

Nicoletta clapped her hands, "So he wanted to marry you for long!"

"What?" I asked. "No, we actually needed a lot of time to figure out our feelings. We fought a lot."

Nicoletta shook her head, "Royal jewels, when they need to be made they take at least one month. Especially something that is as precious as the royal engagement ring."

I blinked a few times. "Really? Well, he said he had slept with this ring under his pillow."

"Yes! So that means that he had the ring picked out with your birthstone a month before he proposed."

I blushed. Suddenly, the ring I love with all my heart meant so much more to me. He knew. He wanted to marry me the whole time. He wanted me. All those kisses and dates with the other girls were not real. He had loved me form the start.

M POV

"What are you saying?" I whined as I hid my nose in America's neck.

She giggled as she tried to squirm away from my embrace. "I'm just tired," she said in between giggles. 

"Really?" I challenged. I started to kiss her neck and she moaned as she leaned back slightly. She rested her head on my shoulder and I took the chance to kiss her collarbone.

"Wait... Maxon..." she muttered and I lifter her up. Her legs were dangling over one of my arms and I supported her back with my other one. I carried her to bed and set her down gently, before laying down on top of her. The sight of her blew me away. Her hair was fanned out around her head, her lips were slightly parted and her cheeks were tinted like a rose.
