The Forbidden Meeting

She approached with humility, unaware of the true reason behind David’s request. At first, the king spoke to her gently, making her feel at ease. Their conversation started innocently, but as the evening progressed, the atmosphere shifted. Eventually, David, overwhelmed by his desires, made a choice that would alter the course of both their lives.
