Cygnus Stars

Chapter 1


The Sun rose high above the horizon of Ereve so that it could shine down upon the sky civilization with its brilliant rays of light. Several of the rays of light beamed right past the overhead branches of the trees that lined the sides of one of the many Forest Paths, and they illuminated the fluffy blond hair of the Chief Knight of Light, Mihile. He had been strolling across the stone-paved passage of the Forest Path that led to the Chief Knight Assembly Platform as he remembered how devastated Ereve was by the Black Mage and his Black Wings many years ago. He smiled at his remembrance of the victory the Maple Alliance had over them for the freedom of the entire Maple World, and he chuckled at the irony of the continued rivalries between all of the Job Factions.

He shook the thoughts out of his his mind when he reached the other end of the Forest Path. He looked over the Chief Knight Assembly Platform, and he saw his Chief Knight Comrades around it.

He jogged toward it as he waved at them, "Good morning, everyone!"

The Chief Knight of Fire, Oz, who had been sitting on the Chief Knight Assembly Platform Staircase and the Chief Knight of Wind, Irena, who had been standing at its base waved back at Mihile when they noticed him jug toward them, "Good morning to you too, Mihile!"

Mihile reached the base of the Chief Knight Assembly Platform Staircase, and he saw that the Chief Knight of Darkness, Eckhart, had been laying on one of the branches of his personal tree. Mihile stepped onto the staircase so that he could see that the Chief Knight of Lightning, Hawkeye, had been performing a furious session of one-handed push-ups on the Chief Knight Assembly Platform Surface.

Mihile sat down right next to Oz on the staircase, and he looked back at Hawkeye, "So Hawkeye, you are still doing those rigorous exercises of yours?"

Hawkeye looked up at Mihile as he felt hot sweat drench his tanned skin, "Yep, how else do you think I'm supposed to regain all the muscle I lost from all my slacking off?"

Mihile nodded his head, and he unsheathed his One-Handed Sword from its scabbard so that he could inspect its sharp blade. Irena also stepped onto the staircase so that she could sit down right next Mihile, and she unsheathed her Bow from its quiver.

Irena fiddled with its string for a moment, but looked over at Mihile when she remembered something, "So Mihile, what do you plan on doing when you leave Ereve?"

Mihile remembered the Cygnus Knight Disbandment Conference that was held on Victoria Island, 'Right, Empress Cygnus and Neinheart were escorted there for that conference with its Job Instructors.'

Mihile looked over at Irena, and he shook his head, "I have not put much thought into it, so I am not sure yet. But what do Oz and you plan on doing when you both leave Ereve?"

Irena twiddled her elegant green hair with her finger as she thought for a moment, "I plan on renting a home in Henesys and work as an assistant for Athena."

Oz looked over at Mihile, and she also thought for a moment, "And I plan on getting a house in Ellinia and working as an assistant for Grendel."

Mihile looked over at Oz when he noticed the similarities between the intentions of her and Irena, "So you basically plan on doing the same thing as Irena?"

Oz felt a light blush cover her cheeks as she scratched the back of her curly red hair, "Yep, I'm a Magician, so Ellinia is pretty much the only place where any Magician like me to make a good living."

Mihile nodded his head, and he sheathed his One-Handed Sword back into its scabbard when he finished its inspection. Mihile looked back at Hawkeye; and when he finished his extensive session of one-handed push-ups, he watched him hop back onto his feet.

When Hawkeye began letting out several tired huffs, Oz also looked back at him, "You sure that you shouldn't have stopped by now? You've given your body so much abuse ever since the Cygnus Knight Disbandment Conference was announced."

Hawkeye wiped away the sweat that soaked his forehead, and he looked down at Oz so that he could smirk at her, "You don't have to worry yourself. This kind of intense exercise is nothing for me. You should worry more about Eckhart. He's going to be as fat as a Red Ribbon Pig if he doesn't get himself off of that precious tree of his."

Eckhart his signature mask off of his face, and he glanced down at Hawkeye, "That may be your statement as of now. But I do not have to worry much about my physique like you, for I have quite the high metabolism rate."

Hawkeye grimaced up at Eckhart, and he bent down so that he could snatch up one of the many convenient stones that had been laying down on the surface around him, "High metabolism my ass!"

When Hawkeye hurled the stone at the branch Eckhart was laying on, he rumbled from the shaky vibrations. Eckhart slid off his branch from his loss of balance, and he felt his face plant itself into the ground.

Eckhart lifted himself off of the ground so that he could glare up at the Hawkeye, "Now you have really done it! I will be covered you in cuts bigger than your ego by the time I am done with you!"

Hawkeye chuckled to himself as he smirked down at Eckhart, "Come at me then."

When Eckhart disappear in a burst of speed, Mihile, Oz, and Irena saw him reappear in right of Hawkeye, and they braced themselves for the inevitable onslaught.

The Royal Erevian Monocle-Wearer, Neinheart, approached the quintet from the end of another Forest Path, and he noticed Eckhart and Hawkeye grip the collar front of the other, "Do you two really plan on continuing your streak of fighting on the job?"

Mihile, Oz, and Irena looked over at Neinheart who had returned to Ereve from Cygnus Knight Disbandment Conference in Victoria Island with the Maple Empress, Cygnus.

Eckhart and Hawkeye turned toward Neinheart, and they fell to one knee, "We were not, Royal Tactician Neinheart."

Neinheart began readjusting his golden-framed monocle as he glared at Eckhart and Hawkeye, "Good, I almost thought your last salary cuts weren't deep enough for a moment."

Cygnus placed her hand onto the shoulder of her Tactician so that she could get his attention, "Neinheart, do you not think you have already used enough energy punishing my Knights? I recommend that you get some rest."

Neinheart looked back at Cygnus when he finished readjusting his monocle, "I guess you are correct. I will go rest myself in the Royal Erevian Palace."

Neinheart trode past Cygnus, and he began making his way to the Royal Erevian Palace through a Forest Path.

Cygnus sighed as she watched Neinheart stroll away, and she turned toward her Chief Knights, "Well, since I have informed the Victorian Job Instructors about your disbandment, you are all free to go."

Eckhart and Hawkeye leapt onto the ground, and they began stomping their way back to their Chief Knight Chambers through a Forest Path as they glared at each other, "Good, We had planned other things to do anyway!"

Oz stood up from the staircase, and she stepped off of it so that she could trail close behind Eckhart and Hawkeye, "I'll be leaving with you guys if you don't mind."

When Irena remained seated on the staircase, Cygnus looked up at Irena, "Are you not you going to depart too, Irena?"

Irena looked done at Cygnus as she felt a gentle breeze blow through her hair, "Not at this moment. I just wanted to enjoy the weather a little bit more before I take my leave."

Cygnus nodded her head, and she turned toward the Forest Path that led to the Royal Erevian Palace, "I will depart then. Farewell, Irena and Mihile."

Mihile waved at Cygnus alongside Irena as he watched her make her way through the Forest Path, "Farewell to you too, Empress."

Mihile glanced over at at Irena when he noticed a glint of worry in her eyes, "Does something bother you, Irena?"

Irena looked over at Mihile, and she shook her head, "It is nothing much for you to worry about, Mihile."

Mihile cocked an eyebrow for a moment, but he gazed up at the clear blue skies anyway as he continued thinking about his future residence and occupation.


Cygnus strolled through the Forest Path until she reached the radiant Ereve Royal Palace. She approached its front gate so that she could ring the doorbell. She stepped inside when one of her many maids pulled open the front gate for her. She began sauntering across the gold-trimmed turquoise carpet of a long corridor as she made her way to her Royal Quarters.

She started whimpering to herself along the way until she reached the balcony Neinheart settled himself onto the bench of. She let out a small gasp when she saw the plethora of teacups that brimmed the table in front of him.

He looked backward when he heard the gasp, and he saw her behind him with her hands clasped over her mouth, "Greetings Empress, would you mind if I asked you to take a seat with your Royal Tactician?"

She shook her head at him, "Certainly not, this may help get a thought that has been bothering me out of my mind."

He saw her take a seat next to him on the balcony bench, but she froze up when she retrieved a teacup at random, "Um… Empress?"

She blew on the steaming tea, and she looked over at him, "Do not worry yourself, Neinheart. It is not like I am not going to get singed by a simple cup of tea."

He watched her take a sip of her tea, and he clenched his teeth when she spat out off of the balcony, 'Damn, I thought that would be a clean one!'

She wiped the excess tea away from her lips as she looked over at him, 'What in the name of Shinsoo's narcolepsy was that?"

He bowed his head at her, "My dearest apologies, Empress! Kidan and your other previous Piyo Knights dared me to ingest all this bitter tea as punishment for all of the Mesos I neglected them due to salary cuts."

She cleared her thought, "And why would you to accept to such an unorthodox punishment?"

He scratched the back of his aqua hair, "Because I couldn't afford to be referred to as a coward by a batch of lower-class peons."

She placed the empty teacup down unto the table, "Well, make sure to warn me if a situation such as this one were to repeat itself."

After Neinheart nodded at Cygnus, one of her Royal Maids who exited the Royal Chambers approached them, "Excuse me, Empress. I've come to inform you that your morning bath has been prepared."

Cygnus looked back at her Royal Maid, and she nodded at her, "Thank you for the notice. You may go take the rest of the day off."

After the Royal Maid strolled away, Cygnus stood up from the balcony bench, and the made her way to her Royal Chambers. She entered her Royal Chambers so that she could enter her bathroom, and she saw the fresh robes that topped her sink countertop and the warm water that filled her large bathtub. She stripped down to nothing, and she stepped into her bathtub so that she could eased herself down into the scented water. After the minty fragrance of the water calmed her nerves, she let out a relieved sigh, and she smoothed out her lengthy blond hair.

Cygnus retrieved the nearby bottle lavender of her bathtub, and she poured it all over her hair. After she gave the entirety of her hair a quick scrub, the suds that were produced blanketed her and the water. She then scooped up a large amount of water with her cupped hands, and she poured it onto her head. Cygnus felt it cleanse her of the suds; but when it washed up against her somehow erect nipples, she let out a soft moan.

After Cygnus felt a deep blush cover her cheeks, many vulgar thoughts of a certain male blonde took shape in her mind. She laid her back the slanted end of her bathtub, and she let the fantasies make her quiver in delight. After a pleasant tingle shot up her spine, she looked down at her right hand which had begun rubbing her sensitive clit. She arched her back when she felt another jolt shot course, and she let out a deeper moan.

Her middle and ring fingers had been thrusting themselves through her pink slit, and her left hand had begun fondling her right breast. After her middle and ring fingers pinched the nipple of the delicate mammary, she yelped at the sharp sensation. While the pleasure surged through every crevice of her, she wished the male blonde had his head between her legs. She felt the pleasure inside of her reached its peak, and she moved her left hand up to her mouth so that she could bite down on her index finger.

Cygnus let out a final suppressed moan, and the powerful climax that overtook her caused her warm juices to shot.

She began huffing as she felt herself cool off, but she soon came to the sudden realization, "I must be really out of it today. When have I started getting such provocative thoughts of Mihile?"

Cygnus rose to her feet so that she could step out of her bathtub, and she dried herself off with her turquoise towel. She wore her fresh robes, and exited her bathroom so that she could step onto her balcony. Cygnus slumped onto her balcony bench, and she looked down over Ereve.

After a tear began rolling down right cheek of Cygnus, she let out a small whimper, "I'll miss you, Mihile."


Mihile remained seated on the staircase of the Chief Knight Assembly Platform as he continued thinking about his future home and occupation. Irena also remained seated to the right of him as she continued enjoying the gentle breeze, but she soon remembered something.

She looked over at him, and she placed her left hand onto his right shoulder so that she could get his attention, "You should go talk to her."

He looked over at her, and he cocked an eyebrow at her vague command, "Talk to whom exactly?"

She rose to her feet so that she could step off of the staircase, and she looked back up at him, "Talk to the Empress I mean. I think it'd be best if you comforted about our departure before you leave Ereve. I think I've prolonged my stay here anyway, so I'm going to take my own leave."

After she began making her way to her Chief Knight Chambers through a Forest Path, he rose to his feet, and he stepped off of the staircase. He made his way to the Erevian Royal Palace through a Forest Path, and he approached its front gate.

After he rang the doorbell, one of the Royal Maids pulled open the gate, and she recognized him, "Chief Knight Mihile, may I assist you with anything?"

He glanced down at the ground for a moment in hesitation, but he glanced back up at her anyway, "Yes, may I speak with the Empress?"

She nodded as she held the gate open for him, "Of course you may."

He entered the Royal Erevian Palace, and he made his way to the Royal Quarters so that he could enter it.

He looked around the large room until he saw her slumped down on her balcony bench, so he began approaching her, "Excuse me, Empress. I've come to speak with you"

After his voice rang through her ears, she felt a light blush cover her cheeks, and she snapped her head back toward him, "M-Mihile, why have you returned? I thought you have taken your leave from Ereve."

He straightened up his body, "I am sorry if I have startled you, but I have come to accompany you for a talk."

She turned back toward Ereve as she clasped her hands over her chest, "Well, you may accompany me, but what did you to speak with me about?"

He took a seat next to her on the balcony bench, and he looked out at Ereve, "I've heard from Irena that you may be in a state of dismay due to leave from Ereve, so she suggested that I come here to comfort you."

She felt the blush on her cheeks deepen as she glanced over at him, "I sincerely thank you for about worrying about me. But… I don't want to waste your time, so you may leave if you choose to."

He cocked an eyebrow at her, but he nodded as he stood up from the balcony bench, "Well, I apologize if I interrupted your privacy; but since I shall depart for good now, I will give you my final goodbyes."

Before he could turn away from her, she latched onto his arm, and she started whimpering, "N-No! Please don't go. I didn't mean what I said."

He looked back down at her, and he frowned, "Empress, is something wrong? You can tell me if anything is bothering you."

She pulled him back down onto the balcony bench, and she ceased her whimpering, "It is just that I wanted to tell you…"

He cocked his head to the side, "Tell me…?"

Before he could even react, she planted a fast yet heartfelt kiss onto his lips.

She took her lips of his, and she glanced away from him, "I apologize. That was rude of me."

He placed a hand onto her shoulder, and she glanced up at his honest smile.

She felt the blush on her cheeks spread throughout her whole body, so she took in a deep breath, "...That I love you. Ever since we first met at a young age, I have been attracted to you. Whenever I am around you, I get this warm sensation within me that just intensifies the closer I am to you."

She inched her own head closer to his as she looked into his azure eyes, "I have wanted to tell you that I have fallen you for such long time now, but I was so busy managing Ereve and the Maple Alliance that I never had the time to tell you in private."

He felt a light blush cover his own cheeks when he took in each of her passionate words, "Empress, I-"

Before he speak the rest of his words, she placed her finger onto his lips, and she shook her head, "I would like for you to refer to me by my first name."

After she pulled her finger away from his lips, he cleared his thought, "Cygnus, I never knew you had such feelings for me."

He wrapped his other arm around her waist as he looked into her cyan eyes, "But I know that I have fallen for you as well."

He began stroking her hair as he gazed into her eyes, and he pulled her into a passionate kiss. After she bit down on his lower lip, he let her tongue slip into his mouth, and he felt it swirl around his own tongue. The heat of the experience made them tighten their hold on each other, and it made them explore their mouths even more.

After they parted the hot kiss, she nestled herself closer to him, and she looked out at Ereve. He kept his arm around her waist as he also looked at Ereve.

She became lost in the magnificence of the peaceful sky civilization; but after an idea popped itself into her mind, she stood up from the balcony bench, "Excuse me for a moment."

After she entered her Royal Quarters, he looked back at her, and he saw her rummage through one of her clothes drawer, "What clothes are you looking for?"

She retrieved an entire set of clothes from the clothes drawer, and she looked back at him, "Just a new set of clothes that Oz helped me buy several days ago."

After he nodded his head, she approached her circular mattress, and she set each piece of clothes down onto it. She stripped down to her turquoise underwear, and she slipped into her white shorts and cyan tube top along with her white socks and cyan shoes.

She examined herself through her wall-mounted mirror, and she smiled at her appearance in her new attire, "I am done changing, Mihile."

He looked back at her, and he got a good look at her new appearance, "Well, that is quite the set of casual clothing, but why have you chosen to wear it now?"

She felt a light blush cover her cheeks as she glanced down at the floor, "I wanted to know if you could… go out on a date with me to Henesys."

He felt a light blush cover his own cheeks, but he soon realized something, "I am fine with that idea, but wouldn't Neinheart disapprove of such an activity between you and I."

She frowned for a moment; but after a sudden realization came to her mind, she perked up, "Don't worry about that Royal Tactician. He is much too busy with other business to even notice us leave Ereve."

After he nodded his head, she saw him stand up from her balcony bench, and she exited her Royal Quarters with him, "Do you not plan on changing into more comfortable clothing yourself?"

He made his way all the way down to the front gate of the Royal Erevian Palace, and he shook his head at her, "Do not worry about it. I am comfortable enough wearing my Chief Knight Armor."

She exited the Royal Erevian Palace with him, she cocked an eyebrow at him, "Really? The Black Mage and Black Wings are gone now, so you don't have to keep acting like a Knight in Shining Armor around me. Even though that is technically how you have been looking in the past and as of now."

He chuckled at her as he began making it back to the Chief Knight Assembly Platform through a Forest Path with her, "Okay fine, I will change into less… bulky attire when we return to my chambers."

After they reached the Chief Knight Assembly Platform, Neinheart exited the Royal Erevian Palace, and he a turquoise communicator from his pocket up to his mouth, "It seems as though the Empress received the company she desired. I will need for you to keep a close eye on this little 'date' of hers."

Mihile then began making his way to his Chief Knight Chambers through another Forest Path with Cygnus, and he came up with something, "We could use several of the spare Teleportation Scrolls in my chambers for our date."

After she nodded at him, he reached his Chief Knight Chambers with her, and he entered it by himself. He stripped down to his yellow underwear, and he rummaged through his closet for his own set of casual clothes. He set each piece of the clothes down onto his cozy bed, and he slipped into his black shorts and golden t-shirt along with his golden socks and black shoes. He then rummaged through his satchel which was also in his closet, and he retrieved a Henesys Teleportation Scroll and an Ereve Teleportation Scroll.

He exited his Chief Knight Chambers so that he could approach her, and he gripped both ends of his Henesys Teleportation Scroll, "Are you ready?"

She smiled at him as she wrapped her arms around his arm, and she nodded her head, "Of course!"

He unsealed his Teleportation Scroll, and it made them disappear in a flash of white light.


Cygnus reappeared in the Bowmen Town of Victoria Island, Henesys, with Mihile, and she grew a bit nauseous from the sensation of Teleportation, "Why am I never used to that?"

He noticed her quiver in her shoes, so he wrapped an arm around her waist so that he could help keep her steady, "You never really did use Teleportation as a form of transportation, so this is just first-time experience."

They began strolling the Town on a wooden passage as they passed by each of the mushroom-shaped homes that peppered the lush prairie environment of Henesys.

She looked over at him when she remembered something, "So where did you get those new clothes of yours? I never knew you would purchase your own casual clothing since you almost always wear your Chief Knight Armor."

He thought to himself for a moment, "Much like you, Oz brought them for me several days ago, but I never asked her for them myself. She only told me 'You'll know when to wear them' when she gave them to me. Needless to say, I never knew I would first wear them on such a special occasion."

She giggled to herself for a moment but when a nearby bench came into her view, she yanked him toward it, "Come on. Let us go rest our legs."

After he seated himself onto the bench with her, she tightened her hug on his arm, "I just love this. To be this close to the only man who ever made me feel like a normal person with actual needs and wants. Thank you, Mihile."

He raised an eyebrow as he glanced down at her, "But I thought you felt more like a princess since you referred to me as your 'Knight in Shining Armor' back on Ereve."

She grew flustered as she kept her head lowered, "Please do not ruin this for me, Chief Lemon Head!"

He chuckled to himself, and he glanced away from her, "Says the Royal Spaghetti Head of Ereve."

She began laughing at their little scuffle with him; but when a certain female Bowman with a stack of storage boxes in her arms trod past her, she waved at her, "Hey, Irena, is that you? Do you need any help with those?"

Irena flinched when she looked over at Mihile and Cygnus on their bench, "Empress and Mihile, what are you two doing here?"

Cygnus nestled herself closer to Mihile, "Nothing much. We were just going out on a date here in Henesys."

Irena went wide-eyed for a moment, but she nodded her head she felt the storage boxes make her arms grow sore, "Okay, may you please carry these for me, Mihile?"

Mihile stood up from the bench with Cygnus; and when Irena held out the storage boxes for him, he held them all up with just one hand.

Irena stretched out her arms as she let out a deep groan, "Thank you so much, I really needed to give my arms so much needed rest. Now come, you two."

Irena began making her way to the Bowman Instructional School, and Mihile and Cygnus trailed close behind her.

After Mihile and Cygnus reached the gargantuan mushroom-covered tree that was the Bowman Instructional School with Irena, she pushed the front door open, and she stepped up the staircase that lead up to the work desk of Bowman Instructor, Athena Pierce, "Excuse me, Ms. Pierce. I have returned with the requested Bow and Crossbow Components."

Mihile stepped up the staircase with Cygnus, and he set the storage boxes down onto the work desk of the Job Instructor.

Athena stood from the chair of her work desk, and she crossed her arms over her chest as she shook her head, "You do realize that you had one of your previous Chief Knight Comrades finish your work for you. That in itself goes against the very rule of doing Requests."

Before Athena could scold Irena any further, Oz exited the Bowman Skill Book Storage Room of the Bowman Instructional School, "Okay, , I'm done with reorganizing the Bowman Skill Bo…"

Oz cut herself off when she saw Mihile and Cygnus in front of her in the clothes she bought for them, and she gave them both an almost back-breaking hug, "I knew it! I knew you two would 'know when to wear them'!"

Cygnus felt Oz crush the air out of her frail lungs, but she tried getting her words out of her mouth anyway, "What… do you mean?"

When Oz began flailing Mihile and Cygnus around like ragdolls, Irena sweat-dropped, "Oz, I think settle down a bit."

Oz realized what she had been doing, and she set Mihile and Cygnus down onto their feet, "I'm sorry. I just got tad over excited."

Oz gave Mihile and Cygnus a much softer hug, and Cygnus get breath under control, "It forgive you, but what did you mean by what you said a moment ago?"

Oz pat Mihile and Cygnus on their backs, and she released them from her hug as she giggled to herself, "I meant that I knew you two would first wear those new clothes of yours when you've told each other about your true feelings."

Cygnus flinched with Mihile as she felt a light blush cover her cheek, "Well, I thank for caring about us, yet you make it sound as if you predicted that all of this would happen between Mihile and I."

Oz scratched the back of her hair as she also sweat-dropped, "But you two seemed like such a cute couple to me that I just couldn't resist."

Oz had a devious smirk form itself onto her face, and leaned in on Mihile and Cygnus, "So… have you held hands? Have you kissed? Have you touched each other? Have you done it together? Do you plan on getting married? Do you plan on having children? Do you-"

Before Oz could could question Mihile and Cygnus any further, Irena dragged her away by the back of her hood, "Okay, Oz, that is enough. You are nosing too much into on the business of others."

Irena set Oz down right next to Athena, and she approached Mihile and Cygnus who had deep blushes cover their entire bodies, "I apologize for her behavior. She must just be a bit fatigued from all if the work Ms. Pierce."

Mihile and Cygnus nodded their lowered heads, "We forgive you. You do have other work to accomplish, so we will take our leave."

After Mihile and Cygnus stepped down the staircase to the front door of the Bowman Instructional School, Irena approached Oz had been giggling to herself, and she placed her hands onto her hips, "Oz, you do realize that we have to assemble Bow and Crossbow Components that Ms. Pierce requested, so I demand you to tell me what you did to those two when you pat their backs during your hug."

Oz ceased giggling, and she retrieved a Seal Tag with a fiery red symbol on it from her robe pocket, "Nothing much, I planted a Release Restraint Seal onto them for good measure."

Irena shook her lowered head, "I sometimes question goes through that head of yours. But let us not waste anymore of our precious time, we need to resume our work."


Cygnus exited the Bowman Instructional School through its front door with Mihile, and she looked up at him, "It saddens me to realize just how difficult it must be for Oz and Irena here on Victoria Island. I wonder if Eckhart and Hawkeye are going through the same amount of hardship."

He looked down at her, "All we can do is hope for them as of now. They might even be having a more interesting time on Victoria Island than Oz and Irena are."

He then looked up at Sun when he noticed how low it was in the sky, "Besides, I think we should return to Ereve. The Sun is close to completely setting."

When she nodded her head, he retrieved his Ereve Teleportation Scroll from his pocket, and he gripped both of its ends. He unsealed his Teleportation Scroll, and it made them disappear in a flash of white light.


Mihile reappeared in the Forest Path that led to the Royal Erevian Palace with Cygnus, and he began making his way to through to it as he looked down at her, "Cygnus, do you not worry for how Neinheart will react to our relationship. He would never let us interact in the manner we just did."

She glanced down at the ground, and she clasped a hand over her chest, "I know he wouldn't. He is much too protective of my Erevian Lineage to let me bond with just anyone, but I doesn't matter to me."

They reached the Royal Erevian Palace at the end of the Forest Path, and he smirked down at her, "So... we are just going to stealth our way through our life on Ereve under her watchful eye?"

She gave him a blank stare as she pushed the front gate of the Royal Erevian Palace open, "...Yes."

He cocked an eyebrow at her, but he trailed behind her through the Royal Erevian palace anyway. She almost made it to her Royal Quarters with he; but when they reached the balcony she forgot Neinheart spent the whole day on, she covered him with her entire body.

When Cygnus let out an accidental yelp, Neinheart glanced back at her and Mihile, "It seems as though you both have returned to Ereve. Well, how was that little 'date' of yours?"

Cygnus froze right there, and she felt a deep red blush cover her entire body, "What… date?"

Neinheart let out a raspy chuckle, "The one you two had in Henesys that I had our Erevian Thieves spy on."

Cygnus blacked out on the spot, and she began falling backward. Mihile caught her right away, and he lifted her into his arms bridal-style as he looked over at Neinheart.

Before Mihile could make a statement, Neinheart raised his hand, "Don't worry, I was also informed of the conversation you had when you returned to Ereve. And no, I do not plan on ruining your relationship. You two actually do seem quite compatible, so you may return with her to her Royal Quarters."

When Neinheart a raspy cough, Mihile approached him, and he noticed the plethora of empty teacups on the table in front of him, "What have you done while we were gone?"

Neinheart looked back at Mihile, and he let him see how dry his was, "Nothing much, I just finished a dare, and I do not regret it. Now… please be gentle with the Empress."

When Neinheart collapsed down onto his balcony bench from sheer fatigue, Mihile flinched, but he toward the corridor that led toward Royal Quarters, "...Okay."

He made his way to the Royal Quarters, and he entered it so that he could approach her mattress. He looked down at her when he felt her began stirring in his arms,.

She let out a soft yawn, and she opened her tired eyes, "What… happened, Mihile?"

Before he could even respond, she felt his arms under her, and she felt another deep blush cover her entire body.

She began squirming in his arms, so he set her down onto her feet, "You passed out a while ago, so I carried you back to your Royal Quarters."

She looked out the balcony of her Royal Quarters, and he saw the Full Moon high in the clear night sky.

He also looked out the Full Moon, and he turned toward the front door of the Royal Quarters, "Well, I think it would be best if I left for my Chief Knight Chambers."

Before he could even take a step forward, she snatched his wrist, "You really don't have to leave. But if you so wish to, at least leave me with a good-night kiss."

She pulled him into another passionate kiss, and she wrapped her arms around his waist. Their kiss activated the Seal Tags Oz planted onto their backs, and an intense heat overtook their bodies. They wrapped their arms around the neck of the other, and they wrestled with their tongues as they let out several erotic moans. After they parted the excited kiss, and she slipped his shirt off of his chest, and she slid his shorts off of his legs.

He did the same with her, and they continued kissing. She pulled him toward her mattress, and she seated him onto its edge so that she could peel his boxers off of his legs. She gasped at the size of his erect manhood, but she took it into her soft hands anyway. When she gave its bulbous tip a warm lick, he let out a pleased groan.

She took his portion of his length into her mouth, and she rolled her tongue around its sensitive tip. He groaned at the powerful sensation as he clutched her mattress. She pulled him out of her mouth so that she could get her breath under control, and she looked back down at his throbbing erection. Before she could continue, he placed his hand onto her head, and he saw her look up at his face.

When she realized what he wanted, he flipped her back onto the mattress, and he straddled her. He slipped her bra off of her chest, and he continued locking lips with her as he fondled her small breasts. As she moaned into the kiss, he separated her legs with his own, and he slid his hand down into her damp panties. He parted the kiss as he rubbed his fingertips over her swollen clit, and he saw her bite down on her finger at the ecstasy that jolted up from her womanhood.

He slid his tongue down to her crotch as he peeled her panties off her legs, and he placed his mouth onto her moist snatch. When he began pleasing her clit with his tongue, she placed her hand into his hair, and she pressed his head down. She arched her back at the immense pleasure, and he lapped up all of the exquisite juices that flowed forth from her pink slit. He slid his tongue back up between her breasts so that he could get a good look at the blissful look on her face.

He then separated her legs with his own again, and he pressed the tip of his erection against her pink slit. When he pushed himself into her, he met with some fleshy resistance. He clenched his teeth at the sudden realization; but when the Release Restraint Seal that affected them both softened the layer of flesh, he continued pushing himself into her. She yelped when she felt a sharp jolt of pain shot through her, but she soon felt it get replaced with an increase in ecstasy.

When he began thrusting himself into her, they both threw their head back from the incredible wave of pleasure overtook them. They wrapped their arms around the neck of the other, and they pulled each other into another excited kiss as they felt hot sweat soak them from head to toe. He increased his speed as he ground his thighs against hers. She parted the kiss when she felt her vaginal walls squeeze his erection, and she let out one orgasmic moan.

The hot juices that flowed past his manhood sent him over the edge, so he pulled himself out of her so that he could let his sticky cum shot out onto her chest. They both collapsed from the experience, and he rolled off of her.

She huffed as she felt the last of her juices seep out onto the mattress, "That was amazing. I love you, Mihile."

He also huffed as he looked over at she, "It was. I love you too, Cyg…"

He cut himself off when he saw her already asleep. He smiled at her, and he reached over for the mattress blanket so that he could cover himself and her.

He wrapped his arms around her waist, and he pressed his forehead against her own, "Goodnight, Cygnus."
