Once inside her own room, Zelda took her shoes offq. The first challenge would take place tomorrow, she had decided already. Only thing left to do now was decide exactly what the challenge would be. Of course she had chosen the challenges according to Link and his skills. How silly of her. She had agreed to the ball so that Link would be jealous and want her back but instead, he was having a good time with Aveil. Zelda plopped down on her bed, not bothering to remove her dress. Hot tears slid down her cheeks. Had Link forgotten her so fast? Or maybe he had stopped caring long before he broke up with her? That made her feel worse than ever. She rolled over and hugged her pillow when suddenly there was a noise outside of her window. More curious than frightened, she climbed out of bed and, barefoot, walked across the cold, marble floor and peered out the window. The sky was still clear, the night air chilly, but no sign of anything out of order out on the castle grounds. Shaking her head and sure that she had imagined whatever noise she had heard, she walked quickly back to bed. There it was again. That noise similar to clawing and rustling only this time it was closer somehow. What on earth was it? Was it outside or inside? At that thought, the hair on the back of her neck stood on end. Thoughts of Ganondorf coming back somehow filled her head and she quickly grabbed her sword which she always had next to her bed. Unsheathing her blade, she walked over to her window again. But again, there was nothing. Slowly, she turned around, sword drawn. If nothing was outside, then maybe whatever it was could have came in to her room. Heart pounding, she took a few tentative steps foward. She wished she had left the sconces lit but right now her room was pitch black, save the little light the silvery moon provided through her window. Was it her imagination or had she seen a shadow move in the darkness? Terrified, she prepared to summon her bow and light arrows but then there was a tremendous crash behind her. She screamed and wheeled around, lifting her sword high above her head, ready to kill whoever came crashing into her room. With a swift swing, she brought the sword down but her strike was blocked.
"Calm down princess, there's no need to kill me" he said calmly. Her legs became wobbly as relief washed over her.
"Link," she said weakly, "what are you doing here? You scared me half to death".
She heard footsteps and put her finger to her mouth.
They banged on her door and thundered "Princess! Are you alright?!" It was the guards.
"I... I'm fine... I just... I saw a mouse" she lied cringing at her own feeble attempt.
"Are... are you sure?" one guard insisted. Clearly they hadn't forgotten that even as a child, she was a tomboy. A mouse was nothing.
"Yes, yes, I'm sure. I'm tired, you must let me rest now" she snapped, trying to change tactics. She hardly ever gave direct orders, so she hoped her attitude would make them go away. It worked.
"Ok, your grace, we apologize. Good night"
Zelda and Link remained still and silent until their footsteps faded.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I just had to see you" he said, getting up from the floor and sheathing his own sword. He made himself right at home, lighting the small candle next to her bed and ignoring her bewildered expression. She put away her own sword and crossed her arms.
"How can I help you?" she asked, trying hard to be cold.
"I wanted to see you" he repeated.
"Was it you making so much noise just now? I thought I heard something strange" she said staring out the window.
"What kind of noise? It might have been me. I used my clawshot to get up here. But now that you mention it, I did see a strange shadow as I was making my way up. I would have been here sooner but I went to check it out. I found nothing" Link replied.
Zelda became aware that Link was very close to her. In fact, she could feel his warmth now and it made her realize she was freezing. Her feet we becoming numb. Insinctively she shivered.
"Ah, Zelda, you goose. It's cold in here and you're barefoot. Come" Link said and before she could protest, he took her in his arms and carried her to the bed. Taking one small foot in his hand, he began to rub it. A dismayed Zelda tried to pull her foot away.
"So... Aveil didn't want you tonight?" she asked acidly, trying to make him let go of her. Who cared if it felt good to have him massage her feet? He had been all smiles with that Gerudo theif, no? But Link only looked up at her and smiled.
"Oh, she wanted me, alright. It took a lot to escape from her" Link answered. His hand traveled up her calf now. It felt so good. She didn't want him to stop. "Of course, if you rather I go to her, I will" he added, and made to stand up.
"You can do whatever you want" she huffed.
"Is that right?" Link asked and something in his voice made her look at him. He was looking at her and smiling. With a swift movement he pushed her dress up to her thighs, making her squeal.
"Link! What are you doing?!" she yelped as his hands traveled up and down her legs.
"I believe," he said, "you told me to do whatever I want. That's what I'm doing". He kissed her ankle and was slowly kissing his way up her leg. She didn't know what to do. She wanted him to stop and keep going, even as she tried to pull away. Then he was kissing the inside of her thighs and she was no longer struggling so hard. He pulled her underwear down past her knees and then off completely, pushing her dress up to her abdomen. He found her sensitive spot with his mouth and she almost jumped out of her skin. She was lost. Burying her hands in his messy blond hair, she held his head in place between her legs as he kissed and licked her most sensitive flesh. A small moan escaped her lips as Link continued his assault on her delicate, little lifted her hips, wanting more of him, and when his fingers started helping his mouth, she bit down on her lip to keep from being loud. And then he stopped. She whimpered, but he grabbed her by the waist and turned her over on her stomach. Moving her long, silky hair out of the way, he began to unzip her dress. Slowly he removed all her clothes until she was completely naked. She watched him undress and closed her eyes when he started kissing the back of her neck, then her shoulder blades. He kissed his way down to the small of her back. She gasped when he kissed her derrière.
"I missed this. I missed the feel of you" he said huskily.
"Link... I need you now" she whimpered. Thankfully, Link was as ready as she was. He spread her thighs apart with his knees and positioned himself at her entrance. Slowly he entered her. She moaned and hid her face in her pillow as Link began to move inside her. He made love to her fast and hard, both of them lost in the intense heat of the moment, amid moans and heavy breathing.
"Do you still want me to go?" Link teased, as he kissed her shoulders.
"Shut up. Shut up and keep going" Zelda moaned. She pushed him off and stradled him, leaning down to kiss his lips. She began to move herself over him as he squeezed her breasts and toyed with her nipples. They continued to make love to each other for a long time, savoring the moment.
Neither of them noticed the shadowy figure that escaped through Zelda's open window.
A/N: Alright guys, I promised you lemon, I delivered your lemon :p. I think that sexy scenes are difficult to write (at least for me) because I'm never sure what kind of language my readers are comfortable with. And it has to keep within the tone of the story as well. I didn't want to write lemon with a whole bunch of very (mature? Vulgar? Obscene?) words in a story that isn't following the same vein, does that make sense? Anyway, I hope you like this chapter, and I probably won't upload the next one till after Christmas. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas... have fun, behave and be safe! Happy Holidays! xoxo
