Another Habaek & Soah fic. This I dedicate to my reviewers, Neurofuzzy & Jin Guan.
Soah was laying sprawled on the bed with her eyes closed, one arm under her head and another around her waist. She had done it again. After the little interruption at the pond she ran away from Mui. It was not that she was mad at him. She was embarrassed at the thought that now she was his bride, his one and only and there were no more distractions (A/N: hopefully) to keep him from seeking her out.
Habaek's father, Dong Wang Kong, was by no means helpful. He would pester them every now and then and she had the feeling that agreeing to spend their first night together there wasn't helping the matters. Soah was no fool, she knew what Mui wanted. If she became his he'd never let her go. He wouldn't lose her, not even to death. But that didn't worry her, she wasn't afraid of death. She feared that one day he'd wake up and see that she wasn't what he really wanted. She was afraid of not being good enough and mostly she was terrified at the thought of him leaving her. Because in all honesty he was a god and she was only a human. He could have any other but he seemed to want her and she dreaded that it might be only a passing fancy.
Her train of thought was interrupted by the sound of her door sliding. She would have gotten up but suddenly there was an additional weight on her bed. Her eyes opened to see her soon-to-be-this-time-for-real husband. His non-bandaged eye peered at her and she had the sudden urge to jump up and hug him. She slowly came up to sit on her knees in front of him her arms outstretching towards him. A ghost of a smile flashed on his lips as her arms wrapped themselves just above his shoulders. Soah, while not squeezing him, was clutching him quite firmly. His own arms encircled her waist as he pulled her closed to him.
Now they were chest-to-chest and he could feel her small body pressed to his, radiating warmth. That kind of heat that travelled from his flesh to his soul making him crave for more. 'Damn this woman for ensnaring my soul' was the thought on his mind as he lowered the girl until she was laid out under him, his strong hands holding her arms above her head. His petite bride was blushing as a myriad of thoughts swam in her head. As he continued to press her down she let out a small sound, somewhere between a gasp and a moan. After the noise left her lips she froze wondering what he'd say to her now.
Hearing her make such a sound had Mui's head spinning. This woman had no idea how much he loved her. Feeling her go still under him made him look at her face. Her lips parted prettily as she took air in, a light blush coloring her skin. Her eyes however were looking at him slightly uncomfortable. He moved his face closer to hers and his lip crashed her lips. The kiss was fairly innocent albeit a bit demanding oh his part. Another moan was given by Soah this time joined by a low hiss from her lover.
At this rate he wouldn't be able to keep his hands off of her. If he wanted to keep his promise to Dong Wang Kong they had to stop. But how could he let go when Soah looked like this. She was dazed and she had an innocent look about her. She was quite literally driving him insane. He had to get out of her room before he did something to her that she wasn't ready for. But first he had to get rid of that look upon her face. If some other man or god were to walk in and see her like that he knew that he'd most likely want to rip them apart. A low chuckle echoed through the room. The young woman under him looked confused. 'Stupid girl, does she have no idea, none at all about the things she does to me?'He thought as he disentangled from her. Now the look of confusion from her face turned to one of horror. Could it be that he was leaving her? Did she anger him? Was she not satisfying enough? In her desperation she got a hold of his sleeve and pulled at it. Tears ere gathering in her eyes as a faint whisper fell from her lips.
Mui couldn't believe what he was hearing. 'Did she just tell me to stay?'She spoke again this time louder telling him not to leave her. His hands gripped her shoulders and pulled her down with him. They were facing each other, his face burying in her hair, her arms around his waist as he whispered to her to sleep. As if under a spell she closed her eyes and soon enough her breathing was even and she seemed off to dream world. This time Mui got up and left her room without waking her. As soon as he was out he turned to make his way towards his room only to come face to face with his father. The water god narrowed his one visible eye at the elder deity. The older god was smirking at him in a way that said he knew something his son didn't. Habaek passed Dong Wang Kong making sure to push his parent on his way. 'The nerve of him' thought Mui 'having such a look on his face'.
This was chapter 2. Next up is the morning :D. Tell me what you think.
