Hello dears.

I have not forgotten about this, just busy updating others and being detracted by YouTube...

Here is the next installment!

Enjoy!

I found Anna rather quickly. She was in the library, bathed in candle light. She was hugging a blanket around herself as she stared at a chess board. Slowly making my way in, I manage to not disturb her till I was kneeling beside her.

"Anna?" I said softly and she startled.

"Ivar, you frightened me," she whispered and I stood slowly.

"Forgive me princess," I made my way to the fire place and started a fire to heat up the room. The cold didn't bother me, but I knew it bothered her. After the fire came to life, licking at the wooden stumps, I sat opposite from her.

"Anna, would you care for a game of chess?" I asked and she nodded slowly, she would still not look me in the eye. As always I was the black pieces so she moved first. We were three moves in when she spoke. All this time I had been thinking on how I would tell her.

"Ivar, did I do something wrong?" I blinked and looked to her, my hand hesitating over my queen. I swallowed hard and opted to move my knight instead.

"No, you did nothing wrong," I answered and she slowly inched her pawn closer to my side. Grabbing my bishop I moved it closer to her queen.

"There is something I have to confess," I said softly and she looked to me stopping her hand from touching her queen. She was waiting for me to say what I wanted.

"I am not who you think I am," I said after taking a deep breath. Her eyes searched mine as she tilted her head slightly.

"And who are you then?" Her voice was low and slow, almost terrified. I looked down briefly and saw ice slowly forming under my feet.

"My name is not Ivar," I decided to say and she ended up moving her knight, taking one of my pawns. Reaching out my hand I softly stroked my queen.

"Then what is your name?" She sounded calm.

"My name is Elsa," I whispered as I took down one of her bishops. Anna's hand froze over her pieces.

"Elsa? Isn't that-?"

"A girl's name? Yes," I nodded and looked to her. She looked to me confused. I picked up my King and studied it, letting her take the information in.

"I'm-I'm confused," she said shaking her head. I stood and placed my king in front of her effectively giving her the game. She blinked at it then looked up to me. I held out my hand and she took it hesitantly. Pulling her up onto her feet slowly I lead us to the sofa, nearer to the fireplace as she let her blanket slip to the floor as she followed. I waved to the sofa for her to sit before walking closer to the fire and placing some more logs on, warming the room more and lighting it brighter. She was silent as I slowly took off my gloves and placed them on the table then turned away. My back now to her, I undid my buttons. I took a deep breath as I turned to show her the bindings around my chest.

"Anna, I am like you, a female," I said and her eyes widened as I tugged on the bindings and the fell to the floor. I stood there exposing my bare chest to the princess. She shook her head slightly, just barely see-able.

"I don't…why would…" she held her head as she tried forming sentences. Too many things were running at once in her mind. I moved to her side and sat on the edge as I took her hand in both mine. I hugged it to my chest so she could feel my heart beat.

"Anna, I did not want to lie to you anymore, I had fallen for you hard and I wasn't sure what to do," I admitted letting my feminine side take over. I was done hiding. She looked to where I was holding her hand then looked at all of me.

"Why didn't I see it?" She said more to herself.

"I've been trying really hard to hide it," I said hoping it would help her. Something seemed to click in her head.

"Sven? What about him?"

"He knows, he's just been trained well to help me hide it," I said and she nodded. I was still hugging her hand to my chest. She noticed and started to blush.

"Y-your skin is c-cold," she stammered. I chuckled.

"Yes, I am always cold," I said and then brought her hand up to kiss it.

"Please could you forgive me Anna, for lying to you?"

"Where you lying about the things we shared and talked about?" I blinked then shook my head.

"No, I never lied to you, the only thing I kept from you was my gender," I said and she looked me right in the eyes.

"So the…kissing…was that real?" She asked and I leaned forward.

"As real as my heart is beating," I whispered as I kissed her softly. She hesitated for a split second before I felt her kiss me back. We pulled apart after a few seconds.

"I don't care if you are a female or a male Iv-Elsa, I care for you as a person," she whispered and I smiled.

"Then allow me to show you the true side of myself," I purred and kissed her again. We kissed slowly as she lay down with me on top. Our lips moved somehow more sensually than at the cabin.

I was wrong.

The kissing at the cabin wasn't love. This was love. It was slow and enjoyable. No rush, no raging hormones.

Just.

Kissing.

There we have it!

I'm like...43 words short of my minimum but I bet ya'll can forgive me!

Shout outs!

BlossomCharms - Sorry that it did...didn't mean for that, but things do escalate quickly in real life too so...yea...Yea the queen is something alright...I love the King, he's like the most understanding person ever. The thing with royalty is that they did have other people while married, it was just hush hush mostly...I mean you have to do what your told by your Queen or King right? And all that power does go to your head and make you think you're above everyone ells...

Well then I shall see ya'll next time!

Remember to leave a review! It helps my brain!

I love you all!
