Chapter 1
Clarion awoke thanks to the sun shining into her golden bedroom. She rolled over to see the Lord of Winter laying next her. She couldn't have wished for a better husband. She sighed as she placed her head on his bare chest. Milori was still sleeping and Clarion could feel his steady heartbeat. Clarion was almost asleep again when she felt a cold touch on her hand.
"Good morning love." Milori ran his hand up her arm. Clarion smiled at the sight of his warm chestnut eyes.
"Good morning Milori. Did you sleep well?" Clarion beamed at her husband.
"I did, thank you for asking dear." Milori leaned in close and stared into her blue eyes. He tried hard not to get lost in them but it was to no avail.
"What are you staring at?" Clarion giggled. Milori just smiled.
"You just look extraordinarily beautiful today." Clarion blushed as he rubbed her check with his thumb. Clarion couldn't stand the wait any longer and kissed him. His cold lips made her shiver with delight.
"You say that every morning honey!" Clarion said giggling. "I love you." Milori pulled her into a close embrace.
"I love you too, Ree." He replied as Clarion kissed his cheek. "Do you have any royal duties to attend to today?" Milori had the day off and was hoping Clarion did too.
"I just have one. I have to check the progress of spring." She nuzzled her head into his neck. "Then I have to attend to these other matters." Milori looked at his wife; the way she said 'other' confused him greatly.
"What 'other' matters?" He asked as Clarion smiled slyly at the lord.
"These." She whispered as she began to pepper him in kisses. Milori smiled warmly as he lifted her head so she gazed into his eyes. He kissed her lips softly. They had just opened their mouths when there came a knock on the door. Milori pulled back reluctantly as Clarion went to get the door.
"Good morning Queen Clarion." Smiled Kara, a serving talent fairy. She held a tray of food in her hands. "Would you care for breakfast in bed?"
"Of course, thank you Kara." Clarion smiled warmly at the young fairy. Clarion closed door and set the tray down. Milori got up and walked towards his wife. "Are you ready for breakfast darling?" Clarion asked as she dished two plates of eggs, hash browns, and toast. She turned around to Milori, who places his hands on the wall, trapping Clarion inside.
"After this." He bent down and kissed her. She placed the plates on the table and wrapped her arms around his neck. He slid his arms down and around her waist, pulling her close. They kissed passionately. Milori kissed his way to her neck. She didn't dare move away from his loving. Suddenly Ree gasped and bit her lip as Milori kissed 'that' spot on her neck. Milori kissed her sweet spot over and over.
"Milori...please..." Clarion said in between gasps. He smiled against her skin as he pulled away. He kissed her lips again as she gently touched the spot he had kissed so many times. "Milori!" Ree cried out in shock. "Have you..." She flew quickly to her mirror. She gasped in shock as Milori began to laugh.
"What's wrong Clarion?" He asked smirking.
"You left another mark! And this time my dress won't cover it!" Milori laughed as Clarion peered at the mirror. She sighed as she touched the mark again.
"You know that thing I say every morning?" Milori began as he hugged her from behind.
"Yes." Clarion nodded. "What about it?"
"I only say it every morning because it's true every morning." Clarion looked lovingly into her husband's eyes. She was lost for words, so she kissed him. They stayed in that tight embrace for a few moments before getting ready and eating breakfast.
They were walking down hand-in-hand to Springtime Square. Clarion could feel the other fairies looking at her neck. She covered it with her hand.
"So how long until Spring needs to be delivered?" Milori asked his lover.
"In two weeks. They should have about two thirds of the preparations finished by tomorrow." Clarion told her husband about what needed to be done. Milori was still learning about the warm seasons, as Clarion was learning about winter. They had only been married for about a month, but it was the most amazing month of their lives.
"I have a feeling they will be right on schedule." Milori said confidently.
"Oh you do?" Clarion joked as she raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, I couldn't imagine the Minister of Spring falling behind. He's so nervous now; he'd be an even bigger wreck if he fell behind!" Clarion laughed at her husband's response.
"You do have a point there darling." Clarion said through her giggles. They walked into Springtime Square where Minister of Spring was waiting. "Hello Minister." Clarion nodded.
"Queen Clarion, Lord Milori." He bowed before continuing. "I'm proud to report that everything is on track."
"That's wonderful to hear." Clarion replied before she began to fly around, looking at the baskets. "Are these rainbows all accounted for?"
"Yes your highness." Clarion gently picked one up and opened it. A beautiful rainbow shot out. She closed it, trapping the rainbow inside again, noticing the minister was staring at her.
"Is there a problem?" Milori asked noticing too.
"No, it's just...um..." The minister didn't know how to put it. "What...happened to your...neck Queen Clarion?" Clarion blushed. "At least he doesn't know why it's there." She thought.
"Just a small tree branch accident." Milori lied straight through his teeth for Ree.
"Oh of course. Be sure to...um... see the healing fairies if it gets worst." The minister stammered out. He then bowed and left awkwardly. Clarion turned to Milori.
"Why did you lie to him?" Clarion asked angrily.
"Oh I'm sorry! Do you want me to tell him how that really got on your neck?" Milori asked sarcastically. Clarion blushed.
"Of course not." Milori laughed and pulled her into a hug. Clarion smiled and kissed his cheek. Fairies passing by giggled at the royal couple. The newer fairies were still getting used to it, while others were just fine with the couple.
"Would you like to go for an owl ride honey?" Milori asked when she broke out of the hug.
"I would love to!" Clarion exclaimed; her excitement was one of Milori's favorite things about her. "But don't forget tonight I have those other matters to attend to."
"How could I forget?!" Milori laughed and wrapped his arm around her waist. They grabbed Clarion's coat and walked to the winter woods.
When they got there, they couldn't believe what they saw. The Winter Woods looked like it was attacked. Clarion stood close to Milori as they walked through the rubbish. They saw nobody was there and began to look for survivors.
"Milori! Milori over here!" Clarion called out. She had found Periwinkle and Tinkerbell stuck under a fallen tree branch. Milori ran over and helped Clarion free the girls. Clarion hugged Tinkerbell and looked for injuries. Milori did the same for Periwinkle.
"You're not hurt." Milori said as he hugged the frost fairy again. The sisters were crying. Clarion embraced Tink rubbing her back.
"It's ok Tinkerbell." She looked over at Periwinkle. Milori had walked over checking for more fairies, leaving Peri crying alone. Clarion held out her arm and Peri ran into her hug. She rubbed both of their backs. "Periwinkle. It's going to be alright." Milori walked back over and put a hand on Clarion's shoulder.
"There aren't any others. What happen here?" He looked to the girls for answers.
"I don't know. We were just walking." Peri started.
"Then the wind picked up and this branch fell on us!" Tink finished. Clarion let them go and wiped away their tears.
"Just a snow storm. Right?" She looked at her husband.
"Yes, just a snow storm. Everything is alright now." The girls nodded.
"Why don't we walk you two to the healing fairies?" Clarion asked leading them away from the fallen branches. Milori followed after taking a look back. "Please be from a snow storm."
