Chapter 1: Stay With Me
Nyx was exhausted.
Emotionally. Physically. Mentally.
The battle beyond the wall wore his body out and his head was still spinning from his excessive use of magic. As he looked around, all the other soldiers were either gazing out into space or sleeping. He wanted to join them but as tired as he was, he just couldn't fall asleep. His mind was racing with thoughts that kept him up. What was Regina doing? Was she okay? He hadn't been in contact with her for four months and his phone was deader than a door nail. He was actually surprised it was still in good condition with all the fights he was in.
"Hey," said Crowe in a scratchy voice, rousing him from his daydream. "You got someone waiting for you at home?" She smiled a tired smile and Nyx returned it with a quirk of his lips.
"Of course," he replied quietly so he wouldn't wake the others. "My girl is waiting for me."
"How is she?" asked Crowe, knowing exactly who he was referring to.
"She's been busy lately," answered Nyx, smiling fondly at the thought of his princess. "Last I checked, her…duties have been preventing her from going out with me."
He and Crowe were speaking in code because he didn't want anyone to know he was dating the princess. If anyone found out, other than Libertus and Crowe, he'd be executed before he could say "oops". Also, he'd be accused of favoritism for being with her. Their relationship was pretty much secret and they were both okay with that. Regina hated nosy journalists because they were the same people who labeled her a lesbian for not being social and Nyx didn't want anyone intruding on his personal life with her. It was called personal for a reason.
"I can't wait to see her," he said quietly, smiling softly. "It's been four months and I've missed her."
Crowe nodded in understanding. "I bet she missed you too," she said gently, patting his arm. "Tell her I said 'hello' when you see her."
"Will do," he replied, resting his head against the wall of the truck. "I'm gonna rest my eyes for a few minutes."
"Okay," said Crowe, feeling sleepy herself. "Me too. I'm exhausted."
The glaives fell asleep, listening to the sound of gravel grinding on the truck wheels. The rest was much appreciated and needed. Nyx hadn't really slept decently since he left Insomnia. With all the battles, he barely had time to sleep. The king's magic was what kept him on his feet. It kept him alive even in the most hardest of times, and for that he was grateful. The king saved him when he was a kid and Nyx was able to save others the way he was saved. It was the least he could do for the country that save his life. For the love of a woman, he would do anything for Insomnia and Lucis. Regina meant everything to him and he would never give her up.
What felt like minutes later, Nyx found himself jostled awake and he looked around, seeing the rising sun poke through the windows of the truck. At first, he was a bit confused but then he remembered where he was. He was in Insomnia after coming back from another battle. He found himself walking out of the truck and into the sunlight. He squinted as the sunlight touched his eyes and he saw Drautos ignoring him. Nyx cringed, knowing that it was because he ignored a direct order. He knew he was going to get his ass reamed by Marshal Leonis when he found out. He was not looking forward to that but he was still going to defend himself for rescuing Libertus. But, he wouldn't worry about that now. He was going to go home and see if his princess was there and waiting for him.
…
As soon as he walked through the apartment door, he was attacked by a huge hug from the princess. She flung herself at him and wrapped her arms around his neck, squeezing him. Nyx felt like he was being choked but he was smiling because how happy he was to know that he was loved. He looked down at her and noticed that she was clinging to him like she never wanted to let go. Nyx wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her up so he could walk into the apartment and shut the door behind him.
"You're home," she squeaked out and he could feel his shirtfront getting damp with tears. "I missed you." Her voice trembled and her body began trembling with sobs.
"I missed you too, baby," he replied, stroking her ebony hair.
Suddenly, Regina pulled back, eyes red-rimmed from crying, and her cheeks were bright red and wet. "Then, why don't you answer your phone when you're gone?" she demanded, pouting her bottom lip.
Nyx chuckled awkwardly. "Don't be that way, baby," he said in a soothing way. "You know how important my job is."
Regina's blue eyes hardened like sapphires. "Don't ever do that again," she remarked coldly.
"What?" he asked, a bit bewildered.
"Stay connected with me somehow," she elaborated, crossing her arms over her chest. "Send a letter, or a text, or something."
"Why are you being like this?" he asked, arching an eyebrow.
More tears spilled down Regina's cheeks. "I don't wanna think of you dying in a ditch somewhere," she replied in a trembling voice, shoving him in the chest. "Do you know how hard it was to stay positive when you were gone? No texts, no calls, no information in any way. I thought you were dead." Her voice broke and more tears fell down her cheeks.
Nyx's heart broke at the sight and he gathered her into his arms again, holding her as she wept. "Shh," he murmured against her hair. "It's okay, Regina. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere."
"How can you say that when you'll leave again?" she asked in a wavering tone. "I need someone to be there, Nyx. I want children and a future someday."
"I can give you that and more, baby," he promised, grasping her tightly.
"How?" she demanded, sounding cold. "You're always gone. I can't think of you dying. If you die, then I die. I can't live without you."
"I can't live without you either," he replied, stroking her hair. "Don't ever leave me, Regina. I can't lose you. I won't survive if you leave. If you even think about leaving, I will mess you up so bad that I'd be the only one you'd think about."
She was already messed up, but she didn't want to tell him that. All she could see, taste, and feel was him. She could feel his hands all over her body, caressing her skin and using those devilish touches to seduce her and control her. All she could see was his form tangled up in hers as he held her through the throes of ecstasy. She could taste his skin whenever she thought about him. If she thought it about it really hard, she could feel his hands caressing her breasts, her waist, her entrance. She could imagine him when she touched herself to keep herself warm at night. It didn't come close to Nyx giving her pleasure but it had to do.
Seeing as she didn't say anything, Nyx bent down and captured her lips with his. Regina wrapped her arms around his neck as his lips claimed hers, slanting against hers, trying to bruise hers. His mouth was so hot and seductive against hers and she could feel what it was doing to her. Arousal burned hot in her veins and her heart began beating like a drum.
Nyx smirked when he felt how her body surrendered against his. She truly was a seductive little thing, wasn't she?
"How much did you miss me?" he asked huskily, his breath hot against her lips.
"A lot," she replied breathlessly, her lower lip trembling.
"Show me," he ordered, pulling back a bit. "Show me how much you missed me. Take off your clothes."
Swallowing her pride, Regina unzipped her black knee-length dress and let it fall to the floor, revealing her black lace bra and panties set. Nyx could tell the crotch of her panties were wet and she was just twitching with anticipation. He could smell the mouth-watering scent of her arousal and he had to use every ounce of self-control to keep himself from pouncing her.
"Now what?" she asked, looking a bit uncomfortable.
"Touch yourself," he answered, sitting on his recliner. "Touch that nice little pussy of yours and make yourself go crazy."
That was good enough for her. Regina unclipped her bra and let the garment fall to the ground. With gentle fingers, she caressed her breasts, her nipples extremely sensitive to the touch. Her eyes fell closed when she touched her breasts and arousal shot through her stomach, making her feel hot. Her touch trailed down her stomach and over her panties. She pulled her underwear down, revealing her drenched area, and let her fingers go to work in that spot.
Her back arched as soon as her fingers touched her opening and she let out a low whimper, her face flooding with heat. Because how slick her opening was, she was able to slip two fingers in without much trouble. She had done this before in the privacy of her bedroom but the fact that she was doing it in front of Nyx made her feel even more aroused. Her long, slim fingers caressed and rubbed the right spots inside of her and she let out a louder cry.
Nyx watched intently, his pants down with his hardened member out, and he could feel the lust racing through his veins. As she pumped her fingers in and out of herself, he stroked his hardened erection, feeling shocks of pleasure going down his spine. Her little show had him so hard that it hurt. His member was red and pre-come was weeping from the tip. He let out a low growl as he wrapped his hand around his member and began pumping in time as she fingered herself.
It didn't take long for Regina to come. Her body tensed up and her hips began moving chaotically as her fingers grew more insistent. Loud cries came from her and she threw her head back, drenching her fingers with her juices. She came so hard that stars danced across her blurred vision. She was so distracted and dazed that she didn't see Nyx playing with his erection. When she started to come down from her bliss, she fell to the ground on her knees and her body quaked with trembles.
"Did I give you permission to come?" asked Nyx, sounding cool and collected even though he had his dick hanging out.
I didn't know…I needed it…" breathed Regina, trying to catch her breath.
Nyx smirked at her cheeky answer. "My sexy little princess," he remarked seductively. "Come here, Regina." He gestured for her to come forward.
She was able to get up and walk without trembling and she took that as a good sign. It was good to know that she wouldn't stay out of the game for long. As she started walking towards him, Nyx lifted a hand and she stilled her movements with a confused look on her face.
"Nyx?" Her voice was hoarse with exertion.
"Crawl," he ordered, blue eyes hard as stone.
Regina's eyebrows flew up and she hesitantly got down on her knees. She and Nyx had done some kinky stuff like restraining her wrists and spanking but she never crawled before. It made her feel vulnerable but sexy at the same time. She decided to make it worth their while and slithered across the ground in a seductive manner. She wanted Nyx to ache with arousal and she could tell he was by the desperate expression on his face. Many would say what she was doing was demeaning to women but nothing gave her more power than seeing the strong man she loved wrapped around her little finger.
If only Father could see me now, she thought with a decadent smirk as she came to a stop in front of Nyx.
"My dirty princess," he breathed, his voice thick with arousal. "You truly are a manipulative nymph. I might…reward you later."
"I would despair if you didn't," was her smooth reply, mentally patting herself on the back for sounding so suave and smooth.
He gave her a devastating smirk, his eyes glowing in a sly manner, and crooked his finger, gesturing her to come closer. Regina obediently perched herself in front of him and placed her hands on his thighs, giving him an innocent look. Regina was very innocent and demure-looking and the fact that she could do such naughty things made him burn with desire. He wanted to claim her and make her his. She was his and no one else's.
"Suck," he said, pointing to his hardened member.
Regina smirked and kissed the head of erection, relishing the growl he made deep in his throat. She used one hand to guide his member into her mouth and swallowed him whole, causing him to let out a groan. She made a victorious expression when he uttered that sound and he punished her by thrusting into her mouth. Regina engulfed his hot, thick member with her hot tongue and licked the sensitive underside of him. He dug a hand into her hair and slammed her head down. She took it in stride and sucked so hard that he was certain he was going to explode in her mouth.
"You little slut…" he breathed between moans and grunts. "That's so good."
Regina smirked as she sucked him, caressing his testicles with gentle fingers. He let out a groan and ran his fingers through her hair, pulling her scalp. Normally, Regina would have scolded him for pulling her hair but instead she continued doing what she was doing, with no intention of stopping. It didn't take long for Nyx to lose control. He gripped her hair in a tight fist and exploded into her mouth, letting out a guttural growl. Regina licked it all up and smirked. It may had tasted a bit weird but he was the only one she would ever do that for.
"Regina…" His voice was deep from the lust and she shuddered. The Nyx that emerged after her little tasting was different from the regular Nyx she knew. His blue eyes were burning and half-lidded, his lips somewhat parted, and he was shaking. "Stand up." His voice shook, but it wasn't from nerves. It was from restraint and it made Regina's blood burn with desire.
She did as he said and waited for him to make his move. In a flash, Nyx was up and he slammed Regina into a wall, pressing his mouth to hers. He lifted Regina's legs so they were wrapped around his waist and he kissed her so deeply that her lips were beginning to bruise. When he was sure that Regina wouldn't move her legs, he wrapped his arms around her waist and began kissing down her jawline and neck.
"Nyx…" she whimpered, feeling like her equilibrium was off course. "We shouldn't…"
"A little too late for modesty, eh, princess?" he remarked in a gravelly voice, his lips moving up in a smile. "You're already naked, wet, and begging for it. I have to repay you for giving me a fantastic blowjob."
"I-it was nothing," stammered Regina, her lower lip trembling. "Y-you came home. It has been a while."
"Shh…" murmured Nyx, pressing his forehead to hers. "Just let me pamper you for being a patient little lady."
"N-Nyx…" she whimpered, her entire form shaking with the need to release.
Nyx smirked, set her down, and pulled back from Regina, looking absolutely seductive. He was teasing her, trying to make her desperate for it, and it was working. She fell right into his trap. She lunged at him and wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her mouth to his. As they kissed, Nyx lifted her up and carried her over to the bed, setting her down on her back. Once she was on her back, he kissed down her body, his lips soft and gentle on her skin. Regina let out soft moans as Nyx's lips trailed down her stomach and curls.
Finally, he pulled back and spread her legs to take a good look at her slick opening. Regina noticed how intently focused he was on her opening and noticed how wet she was getting. Her cheeks glowed scarlet and her legs quivered.
"You're so beautiful, baby," he whispered, moving his head to kiss her inner thigh. "Anyone ever tell you that?"
Regina let out a little whimper and her legs reflexively started to close. Nyx let out a noise of disappointment and he shook his head. She was embarrassed by how he was staring at her.
"No," he sighed, giving her a pitying look. "I guess not. Don't hide yourself from me. Let me see my baby girl." He coaxed her legs opened to gaze upon her beautiful womanly jewel, loving how it released feminine juice, and decided to give it a little taste.
Regina let out a loud cry when she felt his tongue lapping at her entrance, licking up her juices, and her back arched off the bed. She placed a trembling hand on his head and dug her nails into his scalp, screaming out his name. She was already overstimulated from the kisses and orgasm and what Nyx was doing was her kryptonite. His tongue and lips massaged at her drenched core and he was hitting just the right spots, causing white spots to fill her vision.
"Nyx!" she cried, her legs clenching around his head. "Oh, gods!"
He chuckled and the rumbles sent tremors through her core and she could feel it in her toes. Nyx smiled against her entrance and continued devouring her, eating her out in a way that made her entire body shake and seize with pleasure. Her body began clenching around him and she knew her climax was coming like a freight train barreling down the tracks. Nyx knew it was coming because her cries started to get higher in pitch. However, he wanted to tease her and make her squirm so he pulled back, making her whimper from the loss.
"What's wrong, baby?" he asked, feigning innocence upon seeing her disappointed face.
"I was close," she whined, and she wanted to slap herself for sounding so desperate.
"Tell me," he purred, letting his fingers lightly stroke her entrance. "Tell Daddy what you want."
Normally, Regina would have turned away from this because she didn't like the whole "daddy" thing, but right now it turned her on more than she cared to admit. She let out a cry and she bucked against his touch, causing him to smirk widely.
"Fuck me," she whimpered in desperation. "Please, do it. I can't take this…"
"Poor baby girl," simpered Nyx deviously, tapping her entrance again. "You must be aching with need."
"Yes…" she gasped, arching her back again.
Nyx ripped his clothes off and let them hit the floor, not caring that they were a messy pile. As soon as he descended upon her, Regina opened her legs, accommodating him, and kissed him with furious desire. Her soft lips crushed his and she began nipping at his lips, filling him with desire. With one hand, he guided his manhood into her wet opening and slid all the way in, filling her up. She let out a strangled sound and almost laughed at how great it felt to be so full again. It had been such a long time since they made love and it became a need to her. She felt like crying in relief because how wonderful this felt.
"So good…" she whimpered, digging her nails into his back, feeling the muscles tense under her touch.
"Tell me more, baby girl," he breathed, starting a nice, steady rhythm.
"You," her voice trembled as she tried to keep herself from moaning, "feel so big. It's so nice to feel this again."
"It must be nice to be so fucking full again," growled Nyx, thrusting harder as he spoke.
"Yes!" she cried, not knowing if it was from the sensations or if she was agreeing with him. "I love feeling you move in me. I love hearing you call my name. I love how strong and soft you are. You feel so wonderful. It's so amazing to feel this. I love you, Nyx!" Her last sentence came out as a high-pitched whimper because he hit the spot that made her convulse in pleasure.
The glaive smirked and continued thrusting into her, groaning at the feel of her muscles tightening around him. She was always so tight. It made it difficult for him to move inside of her because how tight she was. His member pulsed inside of her and he knew he was close. He never knew how much he needed this until they started making love. He didn't realize how much he missed this and her until he arrived home. Nyx wanted to savor this moment because it was the only one they might have.
He slammed into her, his grip bruising her skin, and her body began surging against his. They started a dance that was old as time itself. Every time he thrusted into her, Regina would arch to meet his thrust. She wrapped her legs around his waist, her nails biting deeper into his back, and threw head back against the pillow, cries coming from her open mouth. Nyx smiled when he heard her moans and it drove him to go even further.
"So tight…" he growled, his eyes darkening with lust.
She felt so full that she wanted to explode. She clawed at his back and heard him let out a feral noise that both frightened and aroused her. He began his movements by starting out slow and she grew impatient. He was punishing her by going slow and she knew it. Every time he slammed into her, he hit that special spot that made her clench her eyes shit and see nothing but exploding stars.
"Don't close your eyes," he panted as he continued his heated thrusts. "I want you…to look at me…as I fuck you."
At his words, Regina opened her eyes and let them trail down his body, astonished by the vision of him plundering into her again and again.
"Look only at me, baby."
Her eyes flitted to his face and she watched the way his face contorted with pleasure and concentration as he thrusted into her.
Her eyes met his and he stilled for a moment, his expression softening as he told her. "I love you."
She wanted to believe him; she thought she believed him. Gods, she wanted it to be true. She hoped he would always love her, even when they hated each other.
He resumed his pace, but something inside of her twisted and she felt like she was going to explode. "
"Stay," he whispered, panting as he moved inside of her. "Don't ever leave me. I want you to stay."
"Yes," she moaned. She wasn't sure if it was an answer or in pleasure.
"Tell me you'll stay," he gasped, slamming into her.
"I'll stay." She was desperate to enough to say anything as long as he didn't stop. "I won't leave you like they did." She was referring to the team the he lost when he was outside the wall and he knew it.
"Tell me you love me."
"I love you, Nyx. So much."
Her words were his kryptonite and he was spurred into a punishing pace until she was on the cusp of that beautiful release. She began saying things that came out as babbles as she fell apart.
"Please, Nyx. I love you so much. Don't stop. Ungh! Yes, baby! Harder please."
"Come for me." The rough demand of his voice pushed her over the edge.
She continued screaming his name to the heavens as the waves of her orgasm hit. "Nyx! I can't…I'm coming!"
It was the most intense orgasm she had ever experienced. White-hot heat radiated from her core and up to her toes and fingers, causing the limbs to curl, and her mind went blank as his member sent her even higher into euphoria. All she could see and feel was Nyx. Her walls fluttered and tightened around him, causing him to tremble in impending release.
Suddenly, Nyx cut her climax short by pulling out of her and flipping her over on her stomach. She landed gracelessly on her stomach with a grunt and her body lurched when Nyx impaled her once again and started slamming into her once more, hitting that spot with intense determination. Regina tried to rest on her elbows but the thrusts kept knocking her off her balance.
"Nyx!" she cried, clenching around him and strangling his member. "Oh gods!"
Nyx smirked as he continued plundering her inner cove, feeling her wetness drench his member. He wanted her to work for her release. He wanted her to beg and keen for it. The thought of her begging for him made his member harden even more.
"Beg for it," he ordered, trying to keep his voice even.
"Please!" she choked out, digging her fingers into the sheets. "Let me come! I need it! Please!"
Her keening cries made Nyx smile and he continued slamming into her, hitting that spot that careened her closer to blessed release. Regina held the sheets in a death grip and she could feel the thrusts in her throat. Nyx continued hitting that spot and he could hear her cries changing into screams of ecstasy. The higher in pitch her cries went, the closer she was to climaxing.
A few thrusts later, Regina's body tightened and her back arched, feeling shockwaves of pleasure go through her body, from her top of her head to the tips of her toes. She let out a particularly loud cry that could shatter the windows. Her juices drenched his member and she squeezed him, encouraging him to spill into her.
While she was in the throes, Nyx's orgasm came in hot spurts, filling her uterus, and she milked it with a loud cry. As she fell from the heights of euphoria, her body sagged against the bed and she let Nyx fill her up. Her forehead fell onto the pillow and she whimpered, tears of bliss dripping down her cheeks and staining the pillow case. She felt Nyx kiss her back and give her a tight hug before pulling out of her and collapsing onto the bed with her. It seemed that all was forgiven and restored between them.
Regina trembled as she rolled over onto her back and gazed at Nyx, who gave her a loving look. A weary smile spread across her face and she snuggled up next to him, resting her head on his chest.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, and she felt Nyx wrap his strong arms around her.
"For what, baby?" he asked, sounding genuinely curious. His voice made his chest rumble against her ear.
"For being a stupid fool," she replied, lifting her head to rest her chin on his chest. She gave him a gentle look and he stroked some hair back from her face with tender fingers. "I love you, Nyx. No man could take your place. I was angry because I was scared, and I was scared because I hadn't heard from you beyond the Wall. When I don't hear from you, I get this horrible mental image of you lying down in a ditch dead. I just can't…" She broke off as more tears dripped down her cheeks.
"Hey," said Nyx gently, wiping the tears off her cheeks. "I'm not gonna die, Regina. I'm always gonna return to you. I love you, my princess."
A tremulous smile found its way on Regina's face and she bent forward to tenderly kiss him on the mouth. Nyx returned the kiss, running his hands through her tangled ebony locks. He held her in a protective embrace when they broke off the kiss and decided to rest, basking in each other's warmth.
"So, I heard you were re-assigned to the gate wall," said Regina, looking up at him.
"Don't remind me," grumbled Nyx, pursing his lips.
Regina let out a laugh. "What did you do?" she asked, sounding very much like a reproving mother.
"I disobeyed an order to retreat, or some stupid bullshit," replied Nyx grumpily. "I did it to save Libertus. I couldn't just leave him behind. Drautos chewed my ass out for it after. He also told Marshal Leonis, who also chewed me out."
Regina smiled gently. "If you want, I can talk to Cor for you," she said, stroking his chest with soft fingers. "He's like my uncle. He'll listen to me. You were only trying to save a friend. He'll understand that."
"Don't worry about it, baby," said Nyx, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "I can fight my own battles."
"Okay," remarked Regina, nodding slowly. "If you change your mind, just let me know. I'd be happy to talk to him."
"Thanks, darling," he said lovingly, giving her a smile. "So, is it true you're like your brother when you sleep?"
Regina flushed and she looked a bit flustered. "Yeah," she replied. "I just love sleep. It drives Dad crazy that he can never get me up."
"Trust me, I know," remarked Nyx, his smile turning into a cheeky grin. "Maybe the princess just needs a kiss to wake her from her deep sleep." Now, he was teasing her.
"Oh, shut up, Ulric," she snorted, rolling her eyes. "You're such a pain."
"But, I'm your pain," he added, acting like an adolescent. "You wouldn't have me any other way."
She rolled her eyes in a playful manner before giving him another kiss. "Yes, I love you, my giant pain." She decided to change the subject. Her eyes felt very heavy and the emotions wore her out. "I'm gonna take a nap, Nyx. You don't mind, do you?"
"Never," answered Nyx, pulling the blanket up over their bodies. "Sweet dreams, princess."
Regina smiled as she rested her head on Nyx's chest and closed her eyes. She fell asleep in the arms of the man she loved, confident that he would be there when she woke up. Even though these moments were few, they both loved them because they got to spend it with each other. As Nyx watched her sleep, he made a promise that he would always return to her. Nothing, not even war, could keep him from getting back to her. Not on his watch. Not as long as he could keep fighting and he would fight as long as there was oxygen in his lungs. She was his light and strength. For the love of a woman, he would do anything, even if that meant breaking the rules in the Kingsglaive. Regina was his princess and he would always serve her. Forever.
