Finally, order had been restored to the continent. Altea and Grust had to be rebuilt. But for now, Marth could afford a moment of solace. As he donned his nightclothes he heard his door creaking open quietly.

He drew Falchion slowly- careful not to disrupt his breathing pattern and thus startle his assailant. As a hand came on his shoulder her twisted on the balls of his heel and put the blade to his would-be-assassin's throat...

Except for the fact that it was Caeda dressed in nothing but her nightgown. She put her hands in the air. "I surrender!"

Marth breathed out a sigh of relief. "Don't scare me like that!" he quipped angrily.

Caeda pouted. "I just wanted to spend time with you. But of course if I'm too much of a bother..."

Marth grabbed her by the hand before she walked away. "Wait! Stay with me..."

"Of course you'd say that out of guilt," she snapped.

Marth had meant to do this later at a more appropriare time, but sooner was better than never. He grasped the signet from his nightstand and bent down on one knee before her. "Caeda, I want to spend every day of my life with you. I want you to stay by my side, no matter what fate awaits me. I want to turn the winter of our suffering(here Marth is referring to the battle with Medeus) into a glorious summer of love. You are the hope that kept me smiling every day of the war, and should you spurn me now I would throw myself upon my Falchion and curse every man who should ever wield it."

Caeda's eyes burned with passion and hapiness. "Marth yes! A million times yes! Even without that I still would spend every moment of my life with you."

Marth stood up again and pulled her into a deep kiss. She jumped up and he carried her, laying his back against the wall.

Caeda coyly motioned with her head towards his bed. He carried her bridal style and layed her down before they resumed their passionate kiss.

After what seemed like an hour, Caeda slowly pulled down Marth's pants as he stripped her at the same time of her nightgown. She then pulled off his shirt and dug her nails across his back as he fondled her breasts.

He gently kneaded one while taking the nipple of the other between his lips. Caeda let out an erotic moan that wasn't too loud, but encouraged Marth in his endeavor. Deciding to return the favor she rotated them so that she was on top, kissed him and slowly lowered her head to his manhood. She teased him at first , licking the tip repeatedly and when he said "Caeda please!" she finally took him into her mouth. She continued to fellate him until Marth pulled her head up and said "I won't be able to take anymore".

She nodded her understanding and they began to kiss once more. Finally Marth positioned himself above her entrance and asked "Is this your first time?"

She timidly nodded and whispered "Be gentle."

He slowly penetrated her, and her cry of pain morphed slowly into a moan of pleasure.

"Ahhh, Marth..."

He continued to grind against her until she hit her first orgasm. "AHHHH MARTHHH!"

He waited for her to recover, but she took him by surprise and flipped him over, now swaying up and down- asserting her dominance and control- drawing a moan from Marth, who the first time in his life was no longer in charge of the events around him. He held her breast with his hand before laying his hands on her child-bearing rear. He squeezed her ass gently and the action seemed to launch her into her second orgasm.

She began to scream his name passionately and cried out "I LOVE YOUU!"

At this point Marth could no longer take it. He flipped her over and thrusted into her as quickly and powerfully as he possible could, riding out both their orgasms.

He flipped over into his back. And she rested her head on his chest, he covered both of then and whispered "I love you" as he kissed her forehead.
