Tempt Me At Twilight
Chapter 1
"Malon please don't make me leave." Link said falling to his knees.
Malon turned to see her lover on his knees, tears fell down his face. She felt sorry for him, but this had to end. She couldn't lie to herself anymore, he loved her, but she knew his heart really belonged to the Queen of Hyrule; Zelda.
"Link I can't live like this anymore, I refuse to be your whore." Malon said stiffly; her eyes sad, her tone too fierce to argue.
"You know you mean more to me than that." Link said softly.
Malon scoffed, she was angry.
"I feel used, I feel like I'm just here to get you off when you need it. Link you don't open up to me. You don't tell me how you feel, I pour my heart out to you, but you never say anything. Im drowning in my own tears and sorrow, you never seem to care." Malon said, tears straining in her fragile voice.
"You know I care, I don't tell you what's on my mind because this is what would happen if I did." Link shot back.
"What that I nag you? That I'm a bitch? That I don't give you enough credit for the things you do for me?" Malon asked, her anger rising.
"Yes." Link said simply.
Malon was furious, how dare he?
"How dare you say that to me? You really don't care do you?" Malon asked, knowing the answer.
"I do, but Malon I can't stay, I'm tied to another." Link replied.
"Then you should have thought about that before you knocked me up and left. Link I have been here for you your whole life, I know you. And after our son was born you grew away from me. Does Zelda know you have a bastard?" Malon asked furious.
"Don't call him that." Link said stiffly.
"Well by law that is what he is! That is what I am, just a common whore who bore the child of a soldier of Hyrule." Malon yelled.
"Does your father know I'm the father? Does Moran know I'm his father?" Link asked.
"I told my father I was raped, and he has his suspicions, but I tell him you're a good friend." Malon replied.
"I want to see him." Link said softly.
Malon led him down the hall to the boy's room. Malon opened the door to the dark room. Three beds sit in a long row.
"He's in the middle." Malon said softly.
Link walked past the beds of Malon's nephews, and sat on the bed of his son. He looked exactly like Link, except he had fiery red hair like his mother, and a soft jaw. Link had only seen him once or twice in the five years he had been coming back and forth. He missed his life here, but he knew that he had to move on. He pulled a dagger from his waist and left it on the night stand next to Moran's bed, and left the room without another word.
"You have a life at the castle now." Malon said softly.
"I know I do. Will you tell him?" Link asked.
"When the time is right, I will tell him everything he wants to know." Malon replied.
The two walked out into the field where Epona stood grazing. Even after all these years she still remembered Malon, and nuzzled the red head. She hummed the calming song she had written long ago to the horse, Link closed his eyes.
"You should go." Malon said snapping Link back into the present.
"I should, goodbye Malon." Link said mounting his trusty steed.
"Bye." Malon replied.
Link rode off into the twilight; it was to be a long time before they would meet again.
