Dinner was short, only two courses being served, including dessert. Randi ate silently, not daring to speak of breath louder than necessary. Clopin had returned to a man after Jareth's orders and the two engaged in small talk. Randi didn't bother to pay attention. Jareth cleared his throat, his fingers thrumming along the tabletop. Randi glanced up to him, seeing he was staring at her darkly. Looking around she saw that Clopin had left them. A nervous stone set in her stomach. She really didn't want to be alone with him.

"Yes, Master Jareth?" she murmured, barely audible to her own ears.

"I want to…apologize for the way I acted this morning…" He spoke as if he was choosing his words wisely, like he was talking to a small toddler. He saw a wall instantly come up in Randi. Wincing inwardly he continued. "I acted like a spoiled child, not getting what it wants…I would like to make it up to you…that is if you are willing to forgive me."

Randi's eyes met his and what she saw surprised her. He seemed honest. He actually wanted her forgiveness. She smiled briefly before putting her impassible mask back on, nodding 'yes'. This seemed to delight Jareth fore he grinned widely and took her hand. He stood up and gently pulled her to her own feet.

"Then come, my pet. I wish to show you something…."

Jareth was positively ecstatic that it was so easy to win her over. A soft smile and kind words was all it took. He wondered what else he would be able to coax out of her. A small voice in the back of his head made itself apparent, filling his head with lewd words, images of naked flesh and sounds of groans filling his imagination. An eerie smirk came across his lips but was replaced quickly as he saw Randi look up to him as they ended up where he wanted them to.

It was a small garden, a fountain in the middle of the vast hedges and flowers surrounding them. He led them through a stone archway and led her through a small maze, keeping her close to him. He looked up at the sky, smiling at the starry abyss, a pale lavender moon smiling down on them. Thank the heavens for the beautiful night. It would only add to his mood.

They came to a bench, Jareth sitting down, pulling Randi down with him. He sat her close, an arm coming around her waist. He felt her tense but dismissed it at the moment. He wouldn't lose this moment. How warm she was against him, her curves fitting against his own contours of his body. He was a greedy man, yes, and he knew it. Leaning down he brushed his lips against the top of her head, inhaling the scent of her. She was sweet like strawberries. How he wished to taste her again. Perhaps lower this time. He pulled himself back before he lost his patience. Clearing his throat he spoke.

"Randi…have you ever seen an Unicorn?" he whispered, his fingers brushing against her waist.

She shook her head, looking up at him, her face very close to his. She blushed, looking back down.

"No…I haven't, Master Jareth…"

He nodded, smiling to himself.

"I trust you are pure…if not, we must leave immediately."

Her blush only deepened as she shook her head again, letting him know that she was in fact, a virgin. Was he going to show her such magnificent creatures? She looked up to him again, finding he was looking out towards the fountain. A silvery figure caught her attention, and she too, looked out at the fountain. There, drinking from the water, were three unicorns, their silver horns glinting in the moonlight. Randi almost forgot to breath at that moment.

Jareth stood up slowly, bringing Randi with him, his hand at the small of her back, leading her towards the horned horses. The unicorns saw their approach and looked up, waiting silently. Jareth bowed politely once they were a few feet away, Randi pulling out a curtsey as well. The unicorns nodded, accepting their formal gestures. Jareth went up to one of them and patted its neck, Randi watching in amazement. The blonde Fae leaned down, whispering something in the unicorns ear, getting a steady glance from each of them. Smiling Jareth returned to Randi, giving her a nudge forward. She stumbled forward slightly, an unicorn coming up to aid her from falling completely. She clutched at its neck, regaining her balance before gasping softly. They were even more beautiful close up.

Jareth had returned to the bench, sitting cross-legged, watching what would happen. He was somewhat glad they were here tonight. They came every night since Randi ran the Labyrinth. It amused him, yet worried him at the same time. These creatures weren't fond of any other life forms but themselves, but they were seen here 'hanging out' with goblins and fairies. His attention turned back to the horses and Randi when he heard a small giggle and a whinny.

There, on the largest unicorns back, was Randi, seated on the creature. Jareth looked bewildered at the sight. Never in his two thousand years of ruling did he see a unicorn giving a being, a human non the less, a ride! He did ask them to show the girl kindness, but this…this was simply amazing. The unicorn happily pranced around the fountain, Randi's squeals of delight drowned out by the neighing horses that accompanied the rider.

Four. Five. Six times the unicorn rounded the fountain, before stopping. He leaned down, letting Randi slip off gracefully, giving her hair a playful nip once she was standing properly. She stroked the creatures mane, letting the silky strands slide through her fingers. The unicorn looked at her, his gaze locking with hers. Flashes of Jareth filled her head, then a bed and a wedding ring. Randi blinked after the images stopped. She shook her head softly. Did it want to know if they were…together? The message wasn't that clear, to her at least.

The horse shook its own head, then nudged Randi towards Jareth. She looked at it before receiving another nudge. Getting the message she went up to her King. He looked up at her, puzzled. The three unicorns circled them, the one behind Jareth nipping his hair, pulling it up. Jareth 'ouched' and stood up, rubbing the sore spot where his hair was pulled. He looked back at the unicorn, their eyes locking. He saw himself pulling Randi close, his lips pressed against his. He looked at Randi who was blushing furiously as she looked back at him. So she had gotten the message as well. He grinned, eyes flashing as he wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her flush against himself.

"I do think the creatures wish for a display of affection…." he whispered between them. Randi shot him a glare.

"There's no affection between us to share."

Jareth's smirk faltered slightly, but was replaced with a small smile.

"They think there is…"

He leaned down, his hand coming to cup her cheek, his thumb smoothing over the skin. He looked into her eyes, marveling in the rare blue grayness of them. He admired the defiance in those eyes as he gently brushed his lips over hers, a fluttering kiss. His arm around her waist tightened as he finally claimed those poised lips of hers.

Randi blushed deeply as his lips claimed hers. They were so warm. So perfect. She couldn't help the groan that came forth., suddenly ending the kiss. Her eyes searched his as the brief kiss ended, seeing a presence of tenderness and regret. She reached up, a fingertip tracing his full bottom lip. His eyes darkened at the sensual touch, before pulling away suddenly, cold air rushing between them.

The unicorns, nodded their heads again, coming up to Randi, nudging her to pet them. She patted their necks, smiling softly. They each gave her a glance, a feeling of love and comfort filling her, before they left.

"Amazing…"she whispered, watching them leave, her back turned towards the Fae who brought her there.

Two strong arms encircled her waist, and she was suddenly pulled into a hard chest, warm lips ghosting over her ear.

"Yes…pet…simply amazing…" whispered the now very aroused male.
