Chapter 1: A secret mission
That humble house was everything for her. Ravenna protected Bethany and her mother from Meredith's manipulations and now she lives with the love of her life there. She never wore a dress in her life but Anders made it only for her. That green was perfect for her body. It was made of silk and exposed her shoulders. An emerald was on the side of the dress, she touched it, until Anders kissed her on the neck and Ravenna smiled. She felt in her back that Anders was bare-chested but that he had a shirt.
"Did you wait too long?" asked he seductive
"Not so much"
Anders massaged her hips. "I've taked some grapes from the tree. Do you want it?"
"Mmmh, it depends how much sweet they're"
"Not as much as me" Anders turned her and kissed her passionately
"Let me take some grapes. If I didn't listen bad, you offered it to me"
"Yes" Anders took the bowl with the grapes in front of the door then he approached Ravenna who was grabbing it with her mouth but Anders ate it.
"Anders!"
"Maybe you're not so fast"
"Or maybe you don't know how to eat a fruit"
Anders turned his back on her and she followed him trying to eat some grapes.
"The grapes end once someone eats it" Anders continued to eat while Ravenna followed it trying to steal it "But the passion… The passion never ends"
Ravenna raised her hand but Anders took it and turned her to look at him.
"If you want some grapes, you must earn it" Anders ate all the grapes in one fell swaap.
"You're a…"
"Ssshhh, I know what I am" Anders kissed her
They went into the bedroom while they continued to kiss, then Anders pushed Ravenna on the bed. He smiled while he pulled on his shirt sleeves.
"Why don't you take off your shirt?" asked Ravenna breathless
"No my dear, I decide when I took off my shirt" Anders went above her and kissed her, then he tore her dress and kissed her chest. After Ravenna was naked, Anders turned her belly down and kissed her neck behind her, then he turned hera gain looking at her deeply.
"I want this to be the bes moment of our life"
"Yes, I want it too" Ravenna caressed his face and they continued to kiss.
After they had sex, they looked at each other smiling.
"I can't imagine another place. I only want to stay with you"
"Me too. I love you and I would never abandon you like everyone did"
"Yes, but I understand them. They want a life and their task finished"
"Yes after you won to let mages free"
"After I killed Meredith. She deserved it. She was the main reason we could be separated"
"But we're here and no one will ruin our love"
"I would like to know what Bethany is doing. She's my sister and I love her"
"She's right, ok? And you will see her soon"
"It's unlikely"
"No, she's doing her job and she will need you as soon as possible. She should escape but she will be right"
"Thank you for being an incredible boyfriend"
Anders went above her. "And you for being so good at sex"
"I think you're better" They kissed and they had another wonderful night.
…
Ravenna woke up and searched Anders with her hand but she couldn't find him. She stood up and put on her rogue's clothes. She went out of her home and looked at the sun that relaxed her. She was ready to go hunting but she heard some noises.
"Anders?" Ravenna called him but he didn't show up "I know we made games yesterday and I enjoyed it but this isn't the right moments"
"Which games?"
Ravenna couldn't believe the person she was seeing. "Isabela? What are you doing here? I believe you abandoned me like everyone did"
"Abandon you? I don't think so. I have to be your master together with another girl"
"My master for what?"
"To teach you how to fight"
"I know how to fight, thank you"
"Marina doesn't think so"
"Who is Marina?"
"A girl who wants you to do a mission and she thinks you're going to fight a great danger"
"And now you work for her. Isn't that right Isabela?"
"It isn't how you think"
"And how is it? Because I don't see any explanation"
"Why should I cheat? I helped you anytime you needed me"
"And you went away hen you was tired to help"
"That was because I had things to do"
"We can easily say it. You wasn't so loyal to me but it isn't a problem. Now explain me who's Marina and why she wants me to do this missions"
"It's better she says it to you. Follow me"
Isabela was walking but Ravenna stopped for a while. "But Anders?"
"I will advise him later, don't worry"
Ravenna followed her without reasoning. They walked into the wood until Ravenna decided to break the silence.
"What did you do the time you, well… decided to leave me like everyone?"
"I wanted to continue my life building a home after I couldn't had a ship anymore but,… I didn't have enough money"
"Let me guess. Marina found you alone like a poor"
"Yes" Isabela was ashamed
"And you neither tried to contact me to know how was my life with Anders or if I was right. Isabela it wasn't easy for me to choose a side, I choosed to stay with mages not because I found unfair what templars did to them instead of the contrary, but because I love Anders and I knew I couldn't had see him anymore if I sided with templars"
"And he knows it?"
"I don't care, I love him"
"Yes, but the question is… Will he love you again if he knows you only helped mages for him and not because you really wanted them free?"
Ravenna didn't answer.
"Well, you're here"
Ravenna and Isabela turned and saw a girl worn like a warrior with black hair collected that left loose the curly lock.
"Welcome Ravenna Hawke, my name's Marina and I'm here to teach you how to fight the enemy"
"I already know how to fight"
"Isabela, can you leave us alone?"
"Yes" answered Isabela without questioning and she went away. Once Isabela was stronger and in that moment Ravenna didn't recognise her.
"I need your help" explained Marina "A monster is ruining our town" Marina used the swords against her and she dodged
"And why should I help you?"
"Because you're the only one who can defeat him Ravenna Hawke" they crossd their swords "But first you have to find a person who can help you"
"And who can help me? I know how to fight a monster"
Marina tripped her up. "The arrogance will not help you. People talk about her in this period, She's part of a noble family. She's the inquisitor, Laurel Trevelyan"
Ravenna stood up. "And why not Sherley Cousland? She made great things defeating the Archdemon"
"No one is hearing about her for a long time, but she isn't good for the job" Marina put in place the swords "The inquisitor instead… She will do great things"
"The world gave women the possibility to be strong as much as men. Sherley Cousland has been an example to me, I think she's the main person who revolutionized the world, she became the queen of Ferelden and even if I don't know her, I hope anything happened to her"
"Yes, look at me. I'm strong and I don't thanks Sherley Cousland for it. Women fought like men before she arrived"
"Regarding the inquisitor, I hope I will find her"
"I will come with you, and during our travel I will show you how to fight".
…
Laurel was looking to her magic stick. She was a mage and she loved it, she felt using magic she could help more people, but the thing she loved most was being there. At the beginning she felt prisoner,but with the passing of time she felt at home and it was most of all thanks to the love of her life.
"Do you feel more powerful looking there?"
Laurel turned and saw Cullen smiling, so she approached him. "I feel more powerful when I'm with you"
Cullen kissed her passionately. "I feel this will be a good moment"
They continued to kiss until they went to the bedroom and Cullen pushed Laurel in the bed and they took off their clothes.
"Someone can hear us" said Laurel
"Well, they can hear us" said Cullen smiling .
