The castle appeared long before he was close, towering over the surrounding village and forest. The hunting party had been out for almost a week, and Sir Tristan was tired and aching. He couldn't wait to get in front of a warm fire and enjoy the feast that would be waiting, and then later on visit his wife's chamber. He had married Lady Nimue only last month...
During the morning, the King sent her to find certain of his kinsmen throughout the castle, and bring them quietly to him. Time and again, she made her way up from her chambers to seek them out.

Richard Castle was on to something but he wouldn't tell her what it was. He knew she was somewhat predictable in her sexual drive. He could tell now that she was horniest the days after her period, insatiable to be precise. Then, the nights were exhausting enough without toys but now he'd been informed that she had bought a penis ring and love balls. That...
