Edit: Words and grammar stuff
Later Yona kept avoiding Hak who still believed everything to be an unrequited love hallucination. Jea-ha was not avoiding Hak.
"So I'm curious about what happened earlier? hmmm?" Jea-ha waggled his eyebrows at Hak. "Shin-ah notices quite a lot ya know. Don't you want to kiss your beloved Princess Yona again? Her lips do look so inviting."
"You go too far Ryokuryuu!" yelled Kija but Hak got to him first. Wrestling the green dragon before fully registering what had been said.
...Again? Did that really... happen?
"Eeeeeh! Why would Hak..." Yona blushed furiously.
"...be..." Yona turns to look at the ground.
"...kissing... me?" She asked barely getting the last words out in a mumbled breath. Jea-ha, Shin-ah, they had seen! Why was her chest hurting so much. Her heart pounding in her ears.
Hak froze holding Jea-ha in a painful headlock and stared at the princess. A red blush creeps onto his face. Again...kiss her again...
Jea-ha shrugs with difficulty and smirks.
"Let's ask the Raijou why he would be kissing you, Yona dear?"
Blushing furiously Hak threw the green dragon to the ground knocking the wind from Jea-ha. He gasped in pain as the breath was driven from his lungs.
Hak placed his boot on the green dragons windpipe and loomed over him "You'd better get real quiet droopy eyes or you may no longer be able to speak..."
"Wait Stop! Don't hurt Jea-ha!" Yona cried. "He doesn't mean anything by it. I mean it's stupid to think of.. of you like... of us... I mean what..." The princess continued to stammer as her face turned a deeper burgundy.
"You're right Princess. It's stupid." Hak stepped off of Jea-ha. It's just droopy eyes being annoying. Nothing could have happened.
"Oh ho ho!" Jea-ha says rubbing his sore neck. "The Great Raijou tamed by a beautiful woman. How interesting."
"Listen you!" Hak said as he grabbed the green dragon by his cuff.
"Didn't Yona dear just command you to heel Thunder Beast?"
"I'm going to drop you in the river."
"Only if you can catch me!" yelled Jea-ha leaping into the air. Hak barley held on to Jea-ha's coat as he flew off with him only to lose his grip and land in a tree near by.
"I am not washing any more clothes!" Yoon called after them.
"Yay! Bath time!" Clapped Zeno.
"Besides I can't command him to do anything anymore anyway." Yona muttered nudging a rock with her foot. Even if he didn't accept it at that time she would give herself to Hak. Her fear of him teasing her would not take away her resolve to tell him how she felt.
Taking a deep breath she went to find him.
He was swinging down out of a tree. His long arms holding his lithe body from a branch. Yona's breath caught as she watched him land with athletic grace.
"Enjoying the view Princess?"
"Eeh!" She tried not to notice the rushing in her ears or the warmth in her lower stomach. He was standing far too close. She took a step back. He took a step froward. She took another step and her back hit a tree. Hak stared at the Princess. She stared back with force. She would not be intimidated by him. She had come too far.
"What can I do so you will acknowledge my strength Hak?"
Hak swallowed with difficulty. That speech from earlier really happened but what about what came after? His breathing became heavier.
"Continue to live and to fight. Continue to struggle against the tyranny in this world. Take what you want and don't apologize for it." He brushed his knuckles against her hair. "That is what you can do." He whispered to her forehead avoiding those haunting eyes and thoughts of her lips on his. "You will never be my servant. How are we to be equals if I am your master Princess?"
Yona looked at the opening in Haks robe her fingertips inches from his collar bone and resting on his chest. The smell of him was intoxicating. Leaning over her, overwhelming her. She closed her eyes and took a breath focusing on the smell of the trees and woodlands.
"We can't. We can't be equals if either of us is master Hak but I want you... I want you to be free to do as you choose but I also want you with me no matter what... I mean what I want is...I want you to choose..." Yona gasped as Hak placed his head on her shoulder. His breath tickling her ear. Grabbing at her shoulder and wrapping an arm around her waist. Hearing her say she wanted him made pure ecstasy shoot down his spine. He wanted her too.
"If you say such things to me Princess I won't be able to stop myself." Hak warned quietly.
"Hak I hate when you tease me like that! I'm being serious." Yona huffed. It was hard to breath with him holding her so close. The way his taught muscles felt through his robes holding her. It felt so good to be held by him. She pressed her hand against his chest feeling his skin. Her left arm resting on his shoulder reaching her hand up she twisted his hair and pulled.
"Haa-aak"
He was nuzzling her neck nipping at the soft skin beneath her ear. He groaned into her hair. "Princess...Yona." He breathed into her ear. She felt goose pimples go from her neck to her toes.
Where was the resolve to protect King Ils precious only daughter. He was already teaching her to use weapons and violence. What would it hurt to take the rest of her innocence as well. "I want you too. I've always wanted you. Always." He sighed against her soft skin. Running his hand up her back his other hand rubbing her arm to take her small wrist fisting in his hair. He liked that. He liked that a lot. He opened his eyes to stare deeply into hers. Her blushing face was too cute another electric shock started at his hairline and shot straight to his gut. He was drowning in her beautiful eyes. He leaned away from Yona breathing heavily. "I've gone too far haven't I?"
The discomfort in his pants told him what poor self control he had left.
"No. I think...I...I love you Hak." Yona declared out of breath. Brilliant violet eyes implored his. She was still holding his robes wrapped in her small fists she pulled him down. With no resistance left he let her.
She stopped short unsure of what she was doing. She brought her face as close to his as their height would allow. He gently placed his hands on either side of her face and brought his lips to hers. He pressed against her lips slowly not wanting to frighten her with his passion. He gently kissed her mouth, the corner of her mouth then her jawline. Moving slowly to her neck and back. His big hands moved from gently holding her face to gripping her tiny shoulders.
Yona was breathless. She felt heat pooling between her legs as Hak continued to slowly, lightly kiss along her jaw down to her ear. He opened his mouth and suckled on her ear lobe the metal from her earring clicking against his teeth. Yona moaned pulling on his hair again. Hak murmured in approval moving back toward her lips. He parted his own and softly bit her bottom lip with his teeth.
He pulled away afraid of his own passion for the princess. He had never dreamed off doing this. Kissing Princess Yona, holding her. Hearing her make such lovely sounds. They looked at each other with blushing expressions and hooded eyes. Her lips were red and plump from his ministrations. They looked so appetizing.
"Well what do we have here?"
"YEaaagh!" Yona and Hak both jumped a foot apart. Yona tripped landing in the brush. "Ow!"
"I didn't think you had it in you Thunder Beast! Ha ha!" Jea-ha said slapping Hak on the back.
Shin-ah helped Yona to her feet. "Yona? Are you...hurt?" He said in his halting quiet way.
"No I'm fine Shin-ah." Yona smiled at the blue dragon taking his hand. "Let's go back to camp."
It was a long quiet walk back to camp.
"We'll I'm going to unpack." Said Hak. "Me too!" Aggreed Yona. They both walked in opposite directions neither going in the direction of the tents where the packs were.
"Well this is definitely getting interesting." Mused the green dragon. Shin-ah stood quietly frowning in concern for his comrades.
"Pkuyuu!"
"Isn't it entertaining Hakuryuu? These young lovers." Jea-ha gestured toward Hak and then Yona
"Whaaaaat! I will Kill anyone who lays a hand on the Princess!"
"Now now Hakuryuu. What if she wants those hands to be layed? Eh?"
"The Princess would never allow for something like that before she is to be married!"
Jea-ha raised an eyebrow at his naive brother.
Yoon shooed Yona away from the dinner preparation after she cut her finger skinning a potato. Soon Yona was hiding in one tent and Hak had left to bathe in the river near by.
