The King's Return: M/M First Time Arranged Marriage Short Story Romance
E.L. Klimax
I never imagined the day I married the king would also be the the same day our lands were sieged by an invading army. With no time to lose, he said his wedding vows and kissed my cheek before hurrying off to fight—and that was three years ago, all of which I've spent doing my duty by ruling in his absence. But suddenly, the war is over, and he's on his way back... and here I am, three years married and still a virgin, my husband more of a stranger to me even than the day he left. Tonight, for the first time, I won't be sleeping alone. And I'm feeling every bit as nervous as I might have on my wedding day so long ago, only now it's compounded by three years of restless loneliness and uncertainty.
Tonight, we'll truly be joined as one... for better or worse.

Three years at war was not exactly the honeymoon I envisioned for myself before becoming a married man. Yet I've had to accept it and fight tirelessly having only known my beautiful bride for only moments, and content myself with dreams of his face. For these long, bloody years, those dreams have been all that kept me going, and now, with the war finally at an end, I'm on my way back home. A few scars here and there, a few pounds shed, a few gray hairs, a few new aches in my bones—none of it matters. The only thing at the forefront of my mind is Percy and seeing to the consummation of our union, as it should have been done three years ago.
Tonight, our long separation will be ended, we will be joined in the truest sense of the word. And I, for one, can't wait to see it done.
