Marik looked at the water that sat in the small Oasis, the sun beat down onto the water making it warm, off to the side was a few oils and body wash, she looked around before she started to slip her top off "Okay quickly" She spoke as she took the top of her outfit off the female froze hearing the bushes behind her shake causing her to jump and scream.

Akefia walked free from the bushes and frowned "Will you pipe down already?" He spoke walking o the water his hand slipping into the water feeling it's warmth "What the hell are you doing here?!" Mariku yelled covering her breasts from the thief's eyes. "I came to drop off a few more oils " He spoke setting the jar's down Mariku nodded and watched as the Thief King stood by one of the trees.

The bronze skinned princess walked to the edge of the spring and watched the crystal clear water flow by, there was only one thing wrong "Erm.. you know, you have to leave now" She spoke looked back at the male who just arched a brow and left from his spot against the palm tree advancing towards her "Leave? So you think I'm that stupid?" He spoke as he removed the red robe and hung it onto one of the branches, next was his sand colored robe, his shoes.

"I wont leave you alone, not one minute princess if you consider or think that it's unfair or rude then heh " He shrugged as he removed his kilt hanging the thing on the branch "Get over it" He spoke walking past her to the spring and dived in, a tomb robber had no shame, he lived on the streets since years and had seen worse than a naked body.

The princess frowned how ever arched a brow as he started to strip "What? wait you-" Then the kilt was off leaving the thief as naked as the day he was born Mariku cupped her hand over her mouth and turned so that her back was to him, her face bright red.

Mariku had been raised within the palace walls practically her entire life, never had she seen a completely naked man before, "But you I- A man and a woman should not be naked together unless they are married or at lest committed to each other" She spoke her parents had always drilled it into her head that it was against Ra plus the fact they had already made plans for the young princess.

How ever the water looked so nice and inviting, Mariku sighed knowing she couldn't win as she took her top and skirt off "Undergarment stays on" She announced before diving into the water. Akefia snorted before giving a humorous chuckle " Of course that's what you've been told but that's quite wrong women and men find their own partner, then sleep with them to see if the partner even stays sounds quite logical doesn't it?" The Thief King spoke before he dived under the water for a minute or two, resurfacing he shook the water from his hair and face running a hand down his features.

Mariku frowned as she slipped into the water "This dose feel nice" She spoke to herself before going below the water to rinse the shirt and sand off, she realized how close she was to the man and quickly saw to one of the corner's to wash herself, far from the thief. Akefia smirked and shook his head "You have so much to learn, all the thing's they don't teach you in the palace" he leaned on the edge of the bank his arms rested on the smooth layer of grass, he arching his brow smirking the little princess was having trouble getting some of the dirt stains from her arms.

Akefia looked around until he spotted one of his jars and picked it up "Come here" He spoke getting Mariku's attention "Come here, this bathing oil get's the grime off faster and easier". Mariku looked skeptical and shook her head "I'm not coming near you" The princess spoke as she scrubbed at her arm "I can get it off on my own . there's just.. just.. uhg! to much water" she mumbled to her self.

Shifting slowly she turned to rise out of the water a little to scrub her arms more, she cursed at her self before giving up "Fine" he princess spoke as she swam towards him stopping half way "You try anything and I will kick you" she stated before crossing the water more, stopping when she was a foot away. Akefia rolled his eye's "I'm not going to rape you calm your down" he moved and grabbed her pulling her closer, she of course flailed "Ra, will you settle down" Akefia spoke closing his eyes as he was splashed his drying hair now completely wet again.

When she settled we let some of the oil drop onto her skin, picking up a cloth that managed to stay dry threw her little fit using it he washed the dirt and grime away he chose this moment to examine her further, he enjoyed the smoothness of her skin as he washed her. Akefia stopped as he came to the deeply scared back he ran a finger over the mark feeling all the deep grooves and little bumps that had been left.

she was chosen to be the pharaohs bride, Queen of Egypt and doing so she had to have his secret carved into her back, such a painful thing to endure. "This actually feels nice" Mariku's voice broke the silence how ever when his finger ran over the marking's the girl almost squeaked in surprise. Akefia on chuckled as he lifted his hand and squeezed the cloth water drenching her removing the suds before he dropped the damp cloth onto her head "Lighten up princess"

Mariku flailed slightly as the damp cloth covered her eye's "Hey!" She chuckled and pulled the cloth off her head and gave a growl "Just call me Mariku will you?, I've heard princess so much that I want to slaughter the word itself" she grumbled to herself before she slid lower into the water till it touched the tip of her nose. She enjoyed the warmth around her body as she thought to her self.

"Meh Mariku sounds much better anyway" Akefia spoke as he rose from the spring grabbing a towel drying himself off and wrapped the thing around his waist before he slipped into a spare set of cloths he had brought, a pair of black pants, baggy at the bottom and thin at the top, around his top a crimson vest

she didn't under stand everyone always said that the Thief King was so violent and evil but here she was almost completely naked and he hadn't done anything. She looked up at him for a minute or two "I'll need cloths" She spoke

Akefia nodded to her, Fuck, he couldn't;t let her return naked, he didn't want his men laying their eye's on her body "You'll have to wear my red sand robe until we get back" He spoke holding the thing. and watched as Mariku lifted out of the water and took the thing wrapping it around her self.

he looked her up and down giving a chuckled as he grabbed his shoes slipping them on and the rest of his cloths, whistling his horse trotted in. First Akefia lifted her onto the stallion then himself snapping the ropes telling the animal to head home. Mariku rested against Akefia's chest with a sigh she liked feeling clean finally , she glanced up at him without him noticing, she gave a small smile and she thought Maybe he's not so bad after all
