Well, that’s convenient. What are the odds that this crazy mercenary would be hosting a party on the exact day we need to break into his house to free Olivia?
This has been on my mind for way too long.. A moodboard dedicated to none other than Olivia Nevrakis, the most interesting character in the TRR/H series (sorry, not sorry)
Your last day in Lythikos holds some surprises for you and a loved one... and babysitting duties for everyone else!
😂😂😂😂
ETA Olivia's extra roasting of Drake 😂😂😂
One Good Thing
Wacky Drabble Prompt #9 :Maybe You're too Innocent.
Ok, this is my first Fan Fic! Good and bad criticism are welcome. I discovered FanFic on Tumblr about a month ago and I LOVE IT!
This story takes place in The Royal Romance Book 1 Chapter 7 right after Olivia has pushed Drake's buttons and he has gone off into the woods. My MC Corrine Caldwell has followed to check on him.
Thank you @emceesynonymroll for the encouragement to post this.

A ways outside the chateau, you spot Drake in a clearing, staring into the woods.
You slowly approach and call out, “What are you doing out here.”
“I was going to ask you the same,” he replies, now walking in your direction.
You both meet in the middle of the clearing.
As you square off to face each other chills run up and down your body. You are not sure if it is being this close to him all alone in the silence or the frigid Lythikos air that has set them off but whatever it is you wrap yourself in a hug to try to warm up.
You clear your throat to speak, he cocks his head a little trying to figure out what your deal is. “I saw you going off on your own, close to dark with a storm coming, a… and I wanted to make sure you were ok. After what Olivia said to you…. I could see she really pissed you off.”
He looked away then looked back into your eyes, his brow furrowed. “No offense Caldwell, but you’re the last person I need looking out for me.”
“Wow, thanks.”
He takes a step toward you and reaches for your arm, “That’s not what I meant,” his face has softened as he’s started to speak, “Oh, hell…. I’m not trying to be an ass. I only meant that you shouldn’t worry about me. You should only be looking out for yourself.”
You look down at his hand on your arm and he slowly pulls it away. “I’ll worry about you if I want to. So, you gonna tell me what you are doing out here?”
“You really want to know?” He looks around in the woods causing you to look too. “You’ll have to trust me.”
“Drake, of course I trust you.”
Just then out of nowhere you feel his hands on your shoulders giving you a shove, you drop back into the snow.
“What the…?” Before you can get out the words you glance up to the most gorgeous star-filled sky you have ever seen. “Drake…” you whisper. You hear a thud as he drops to the snow beside you.
“Yes, my lady.” He says slowly in a low tone.
‘Whoa’, you think as you feel something deep inside churn, more chills follow. You clear your throat again, “This.. is amazing, I’m so glad I came after you, it’s beautiful.”
“Sure is.” You hear him say in that same low tone.
That feeling hits you again. You look to him to notice he is not looking at the sky, but at you. Your eyes lock.
“Drake…” You try to speak but it comes out as a whisper. “What if I told you that even though I came here for Liam, I don’t want to be with him?”
“I would say that’s a very wise decision. This place; the people, especially for someone like you and I, it has nothing good to offer.
“What if I told you I found one good thing, something I don’t want to lose by going back to New York.”
His eyes are fixed on yours as he rolls to his side and props his head on his hand. “Caldwell, don’t say it. You are here for Liam. And that’s where it ends.” His face looks pained, like he knows exactly what you are going to say “And may…”.
You press your index finger to his lips to stop him, “You.”
“Hell Caldwell, why’d you go and say that?”
In an instant his lips are pressed to yours and you feel heat rising inside you. His kiss starts out slow and rhythmic you part your lips to grant him access and his tongue slowly and intricately intertwines with yours becoming more passionate and intense until you both break away for air.
He looks into your eyes again, you can’t make out his face.
“Drake… I’m not sorry. You have to know I care about you. I want to see where this goes, and I can’t help but think you feel the same way I do.”
He sits up.
“Drake look at me” your words becoming panicked as you fear you have pushed him too far too soon. You push yourself up out of the snow to sit beside him and rest your hand on his shoulder. “Drake.”
He turns to you and sees the unshed tears in your eyes. “I do, Caldwell. Ever since that night we met, the more time I’ve spent with you the more I would love to know what we can be together.”
You cut him off, “I am a grown woman, Drake.” You look him straight in the eye, “I know what I want, I want you and I to see what happens between us. I will sneak out of every stupid courtly function with you and avoid Liam at all costs if you will just promise me you will give us a shot. I know he is your best friend but you deserve some happiness too. There is something about you, it just feels right.”
He looks stunned at you for a second then he runs his hand through his hair. “Damnit Caldwell, alright. Let’s give it a shot and see where it goes.”
“I knew I would get you to see it my way!” you nearly shout as you get up onto your knees and throw your arms around his neck.
He hugs you back so tight, you can hear him through a smile, “Let’s get you back inside and warm you up. You freezing to death would be a terrible way to start out.”
“So, does this mean we are going to go cuddle by the fire?” You stand and dust the snow from your coat.
“I don’t think that would be such a good idea. I don’t want you to get in over your head and regret anything later.” He replies with a sly smile.
You let out a mock huff, "What, you don't think you can restrain yourself?” you smirk.
“Nope, I think that maybe you’re too innocent.” He winks as he grabs your hand and starts walking you back toward the chateau.
btw I love Olivia
