is no t as good as it sounds.”
    “Do you eat fish eggs?” Jez asks, wrinkling his nose.
    “You mean caviar? Hell on, but most royals do. I , however , am rebellious . I eat steak.” I grin.
    Jax is staring at me with a warm, friendly grin. Does he like that I get along with his crew?
    Jax puts a fork full of food in his mouth, I watch his jaw move; he has a nice jaw .
    “I can’t imagine you being rebellious?”
    “Well, in my world I am. I doubt I would be in yours.” I flush.
    “I think you a re very cool.” Jack smiles.
    “Well thank you, I like to think so.”
    “None of that prissy talk or behavior. You a re certainly not what I would imagin e a princess to be like, plus you a re real pretty too ; not fake.” Rusty says between mouthfuls.
    “Well thanks. You’r e not smelly, dirty and fat as I would expect.”
    They all laugh now and I suddenly realize, I do no t want to go back. I eat the rest of my food and then promptly clean up. The men leave after another hour or so , and I miss them when they go. The bar opens for lunch ; Jax begins preparing everything.
    “Wanna help?”
    “Serve?”
    “Sure why not.”
    “Ok.”
    He shows me all the different alcohol and how to serve it. We spend the afternoon laughing and chatting with each other and the customers. I love feeling normal, like nothing matters. I like feeling close to some one and I love being able to chat and feel the connection I feel with Jax. I could undoubted ly fall for some one like him, hard and fast.
    I walk out back when the lunch crowd leaves , and we only have few customers for the afternoon. I know I have to go back, even though I do no t  want to . I walk into Jax’s room, glancing around bef ore pulling off his shi rt and sliding my own back on . I sit on the bed, about to pull on my skirt when I hear the door open. Jax steps in, his eyes linger over my bare legs and then meet mine.
    “You’re leaving?”
    “I have to.” I whisper, blushing.
    He steps forward. “I had a good day, did you?”
    I nod, swallowing. “I like those men, from your crew.”
    “And they liked you, which is rare. They do no t converse with ladies often.”
    “Thanks, for having me here today.”
    He says nothing, he just meets my eyes and steps forward; dropping to his knees in front of me. I begin feeling nervous, anxious.
    “What are you doing?” I whisper.
    “I am going to kiss you.”
    He doesn’t let me answer, he just reaches up, takes my head in his hands and pulls me forward. At first contact, I immediate ly melt inside. His lips are hot, wet and so damned tasty. He moves them over mine with perfection. I gasp as he drives his tongue into my mouth ; t he feeling is overwhelming but certainly not unpleasant. I fall into the kiss, taking his shoulders in my hands and pulling him closer. Moans slide from my mouth as he drags his lips down my neck.
    “We have to stop…” I hesitate .
    He pulls away quick ly, presses one l ast kiss to my lips and stands.
    “And that i s just the beginning of how I can make you feel, think about that.”
    “I should no t have done that. I should go.”
    I pull on my clothes, mumble an apology and rush out of the room . I am ashamed of myself, I hardly know the man and I have just let him kiss me. Like I am easy. I run to the gate and hurry back to the castle, my cheeks flaming with embarrassment. I run straight into my mother and yelp.
    “Jade where have you been, gosh, what happened to your clothes?”
    I fell off my horse ; I was just coming back to get changed.
    “Oh dear are you hurt?”
    “What does it matter to you or father?” I hiss angrily.
    “Love, I wanted to apologize for what your father did.”
    “I am sorry to, for ever thinking you two cared more about me then yourselves.”
    “We love you, it i s why we are lining up your future this way. Would you rather be on the streets with nothing?”
    “It sounds a damn sight better than this.”
    She gapes at me. “You are too selfish,
