A Hero's Reward
LinkxZelda
This is mature for a reason. Just saying. But that part begins in the next chapter. If you don't like the pairing or the subject matter then don't read.
Chapter 1 ~ Rewarding a Hero
"Link…" Princess Zelda began quietly as she sat up her regal throne. She seemed to radiate her power of wisdom, yet couldn't find the right words. Link always seemed to have that effect of her; emptying her of all thoughts with just a single look. She controlled her nervousness and, from within her, found the words that she needed.
"Yes princess?" he responded so quietly. Somehow his words seemed to echo about the room. The melodious sound of his voice distracted her for a moment; his voice was just so beautiful and it was rare that her hero spoke.
"Have you ever been rewarded for your services to the land of Hyrule? You have saved the kingdom innumerable times, yet I cannot think of one time that you have been rewarded for your good deeds." Princess Zelda asked. She felt her heart racing but controlled herself. She already knew the answer to her question.
"No Princess, but I do not need to be rewarded," he answered quietly, glancing at the princess. Oh, how that look seemed to make her heart stop.
"Ah, the words of a true hero. Yet I think it is about time that you were rewarded." She stated, careful to control the slight shiver of anticipation that she felt.
"Princess I need no rewards. Saving the kingdom and knowing that your majesty is safe is enough."
"But you will receive them"
"Well Princess if you insist…."
"Follow me, Hero of Time. I think you will like your reward," She said as she stood, a small smile upon her lips, and gracefully began to walk towards her chambers. Oh, they would both enjoy the reward for sure…
