The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1700

A gentle kiss landed on Arabella's forehead, swiftly followed by another on her lips.

Romeo's voice, laced with a teasing whine and a seductive timbre, carried with it his unmistakable air of dominance as it enveloped her.

Arabella found herself lifted off her feet.

The door shut behind them, and Romeo, cradling her in his arms, walked deeper into the room, placing her gently on the sofa for another kiss.

The scent of her fresh shower lingered on her skin, making him almost lose control.

Arabella vaguely felt her back pressing against something, "Wait a sec."

Romeo forced himself to pause, seeing her pull out a small gift bag.

It was a trinket he had picked up from a quaint shop in Dawnstar, something he had been carrying around until now, having forgotten to set it aside in the heat of the moment.

"This is for you," Romeo's voice still dripped with affection.

Opening the bag, Arabella found a pale blue gemstone, seemingly of significant value.

"I thought it would suit you, I just had to grab it," Romeo explained, tucking a stray lock of her hair behind her ear. Her face, unbeknownst to him for so long, compelled him to reach out, to touch her soft, almost breakable skin.

"Don't buy me stuff like this next time."

"But anything wonderful I see, I’ll immediately think to bring back to you." He kissed her lips once more and asking, "Would you have room for me tonight? I’ve got no place to go."

"There's a spare room here if you don't mind."

Wait. Wasn't the presidential suite just one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom?

How could there be two bedrooms?

Seeing his failed calculations, Arabella couldn't help but laugh, "Or you could always book another room."

If he and the girl were still there at three when Romeo and Derrick arrived, they'd get to see just how stunning her girl was!

Buzzing with excitement, he eventually calmed down, deciding to keep the coffee date a secret from his buddies for now. He wanted to surprise them! When they saw her with their own eyes, they'd understand why he was so taken with her.

Content with his plans, he fell asleep.

The following afternoon, Romeo and Arabella arrived at Rick's Café ahead of time.

The café was a well-known spot in Belloria, boasting a spacious and beautiful setting. From the window seat, one could enjoy the seaside view and admire the grand Ferris wheel in the distance.

"What coffee would you like?" Romeo asked Arabella softly.

He knew her usual choice, but wondered if she'd opt for something different.

"I’m good with anything," Arabella casually replied. She was easy-going with food and drinks.
