~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Daine's Double Surprise~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Chapter One - Daine's Decision
It was a month before midwinter and Daine paced in her rooms thinking about Numair's proposal of marriage. Whenever she wasn't busy doing something productive, that's all she could think about. She couldn't see why she kept putting it off. She loved Numair more than life itself. And he had proved on numerous occasions that he felt the same.
Daine walked over to her bed and sat down with a sigh. She reached her hand to her neck and found her badger's claw. It always reassured her when she had something serious on her mind. Daine felt further and found her pregnancy charm dangling off a fine gold chain. She grinned devilishly. Remembering all the times she was thankful she had it. Those memory's brought her back to her original thoughts: Numair. She stood up and resumed her pace mode.
Reaching a decision, Daine shape-shifted into a hawk shape, her clothes fell into a pile on the floor. She took flight and headed to Numair's window. He always left it open for her unless there was going to bad weather.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Right after Daine left, a maid came in to clean and tidy up her rooms. Room by room the maid made her way to the bedroom. The maid straightened the bed and bookshelves. She started picking up clothes off the floor and made her way to the pile next to the window. "I don't know what that girl would do if she lived on her own. Leaving everything on the floor." When she picked up the shirt and breeches, a gold chain fell from them making a small 'clink' sound as it hit the floor. The maid bent over and picked up the glittering gold chain. Shaking her head she walked over to a nearby dresser and set the chain down. She continued tiding up for another few minuets and left.

Daine made it to Numair's window and landed on the windowsill. She looked around to see if he was in. Lucky for her he wasn't. She fluttered over to a chest in the far corner of the room and changed back into human form. Daine opened the chest and pulled out a pair of her breeches and a blue shirt. She was too caught up in thought to realize that only her badger claw hung from her neck.
Once dressed Daine made her way to Numair's study. He always went there first after each class. Daine sat in one of the larger pillow chairs and waited. She didn't know how long he would be, but for the news she had, she would wait for as long as necessary.
Daine didn't realize she had dozed off until she was startled awake by a door closing and footsteps. She straightened in the chair and waited for Numair to walk in.
Just as she expected, Numair walked into the study first. He didn't notice Daine sitting in a nearby chair. Her clothes blended into the surroundings making a good camouflage. Daine waited for Numair to sit and start writing before she stood up and tip-toed over to him. She quietly stood behind him and put her hand over his eyes. "Guess who?" She whispered, trying not to giggle. Numair put his quill down slowly and put his hands on top of hers. "Hmmm, I wonder, could it be the woman I love?" Daine leaned down to his ear. "I don't know, you tell me." And with that Numair made a move that landed Daine in his lap. She started to laugh and looked up into an equally laughing face. "So, what do I owe this unexpected visit, my love?" He leaned down and kissed her tenderly. She broke the kiss and looked down and took a breath. "A decision."
Numair put his finger under Daine's chin and made her look into his eyes. "What kind of decision?" She smiled. "A life changing one." His eyes brightened with hope as she went on. "I have been thinking a lot lately. And if you still want to, I want to," Before she could finish, Numair interrupted her with another kiss. "He stood up and carried her over to the chair she sat in earlier. "Wait here, I have something for you." He went into a connecting room and returned carrying a small velvet box. Daine was about to ask what it was, but decided not to. Numair knelt infront of her and took her hands. He looked into her curious blue-gray eyes. "Veralidaine Sarrasri, will you marry me?" Daine nodded her head and softly replied with a relieved "yes". Numair opened the small box and revealed a silver band with three small diamonds encrusted in it. He then took her left hand and slipped the ring onto the appropriate finger. Daine looked at the ring and then at Numair. He stood up and pulled her up to him. He leaned down and touched his mouth to hers. The kissed started to become more passionate with every second. They broke apart to breathe and then came back. Daine broke the kiss at last. She took Numair's hands in hers and walked backwards towards the bedroom. Numair followed her pull.
Entering the room, they began to kiss passionately once again. They broke apart to take a breath. Breathlessly Daine asked. "So, when is you next class, 'teacher'?" He grinned mischievously at the way she said 'teacher'. "Well, I don't have anymore classes for the rest of the day." He kissed her on the neck as he pulled up her shirt. He chuckled as she returned the treatment. "So, I take it your free to hold a private lesson." She said sarcastically as she pulled his shirt up. Numair lifted his arms up to allow her pull it over his head. "What did type of lesson did you have in mind my magelet?" They started to undo each other's breeches. "Hmmm, lets see." She said as she pushed Numair onto the bed. Daine lifted up his legs and pulled off his boots. As she put his feet down she look at him with mischief in her expressive eyes. Numair could help but wonder what she would do next. The clothes she was wearing dropped to the floor. Numair sat up and looked over the edge of the bed. There was only a pile of clothes wear she had stood. He didn't notice movement under the covers until there was a human size lump underneath them. Numair laughed as Daine poked her head out of under the covers. "Well, Master Salmalin, are you coming, or are just going to stand there?" She asked with an innocent look. Numair laughed as he slipped underneath the covers to lay beside her. Daine reached over and pulled him over to her. She reached down and pushed his breeches off. They pulled closer to one another other as the passion they shared came to life and engulfed them.
(A/N) Kinda short chapter but oh well. I hope you like it. This is my first Daine/Numair story so bear with me. Please Read and Review. Tell me what you think should or shouldn't happen.
