A/N Don't own these Characters so don't sue me. Many thanks to DaisyJane for the betaing of this story. Without her it would be full of spelling and grammar errors. And to Hepburn, oops (or is that OPP since we both live in Ontario ;)) forgot the 'u' in sho'u't out.

On another note yoghurt, yogurt, yoghourt, youghurt or yogourt can be used to spell yogurt! I'm truly sorry for bugging you about the spelling Lady Isis. Please forgive this dumb, stupid, and ignorant male of his wrong doings.

Chapter 11: Dance.

'How did Queen Audrey know I was here?' Bruce wondered as he had kept this trip very low key. He was trying to avoid attention but instead he held an invitation to a charity event for the orphans of Kasnia. Great it was being held tonight. Maybe he should go, it might get his mind off Diana.

Placing the envelope on the desk he walked over to the window once again. He couldn't get his mind off of Diana. Damn he was becoming obsessed with her. Hopefully in the next few days he could work her out of his system. Not likely he thought to himself with a frown. He hadn't been able to work her out of his system for the past six years.

Dick was right, Diana was perfect. She was so unlike him, the paranoid freak in a bat costume. Shaking his head he turned his attention to the paper work he had laid out for himself to study. Taking the seat at the desk he got down to work, trying his best to push her from his thoughts.

Dick returned to the cave as Tim crawled out of the Batmobile. Dick walked over to the computer as Tim removed his suit. He started to type up his evening report as Tim flashed by him, to get some sleep.

Ten minutes later he was just saving his report when he felt a presence near him. Turning around Donna stood there wrapped in a dark blue robe. Dick cocked his head to the side.

"Something wrong?" he asked her.

Donna played with the ends of the belt on her robe, "I had a bad dream." she said in a soft voice but Dick noticed the twinkle in her eyes.

Dick stood up, walked over to her and wrapped her into a hug. "What was this dream about?"

Donna snuggled into the hug, "Oh that the kiss we shared on the Watchtower wasn't real and you are not interested in me in that way."

Dick chuckled, "Oh, guess I should fix that then." He pulled back a little and placed his hand on her chin then he brought her lips to his. The kiss started out gentle, but slowly the passion built as they opened there mouths to each other.

Dick pulled away from the kiss as he needed to breathe. He looked into her lust filled eyes.

"Do you think that will ease your nightmare for now?" he smiled gently down to her.

She licked her lips and took in a deep breath. "For now," she said in a hoarse voice.

The two walked back up to the manor hand in hand. Dick stopped at his door and gave Donna a lecherous grin "Want to have a nightcap in my room tonight?"

Donna smiled at him before letting his hand go, "I would really love to, but my sister needs me now."

Dick understood, he didn't like it, but he understood, "Get back to her, we have a life time to fulfill our desires." He watched as she crossed the hall and entered the room she was staying in with her sister.

Dick opened his room's door and closed it. He rested against it, almost smacking his head against the door in frustration. 'You need to cool your jets and stop thinking with your pants, she needs to know how you feel about her and you need to find out how she feels about you.' he thought to himself. He headed to his bathroom for a cold shower.

The next day during lunch Diana walked into the kitchen. Dick was eating his lunch alone. Diana took the seat across from him.

Placing his sandwich down he looked at her. The stare she was giving him was giving him the willies. Swallowing his food he asked, "Is there something wrong Di?"

"Yes, what are your intensions towards my sister?"

'What the hell,' he thought before he said, "I care for.. I love Troia. Do you have a problem with us dating?" His tone got steadily harsher as he spoke.

Diana's brow moved up, he was not cowering. Good she thought. "No problem at all. I just don't want the two of you to lose a great friendship over simple lust." Diana told him.

Dick nodded his head "Your right Di. I would never jeopardize what I have with Donna to ease my libido. She is too important to me; always has been." he placed his hand on the table before he got the nerve to ask her, "Since we seem to be having an open discussion on our personal lives I must ask, why him?"

Diana was taken back, "Who him?"

"Bruce, who else." He stared directly into her eyes and he repeated, "Why him, there are a hell of a lot nicer men out there that aren't so complicated. You really could have whatever man you wanted."

Diana laughed, "Your right with one exception, Bruce." She placed her finger on her lip in thought before she spoke once again, "It's crazy but he seems to be the only man I want. You know better then I that love has no age, race or religious boundaries. For all his faults, and I am well aware that there are many, he has a kind heart and he is the bravest man I know. He has to be to do what we do without powers to protect him. I can see past his faults and see a man like no other on this planet maybe even in the universe."

Diana sighed then smiled, "Also Amazon's love a challenge and he is the greatest challenge I've ever faced so far as well as the most exciting." she finished with a wink.

Dick laughed, "Don't I know it, the man is way too driven to be real. That is why I had to leave and where half our current problems come from. Sometimes I wish he would just sit back and relax for once." He looked at her with a serious expression. "I'm worried that he will wake one day a frail old man with no one besides himself and realize that he drove away all his loved ones. Sometimes he makes me want to leave so badly that I swear I will never come back."

Diana placed her hand onto his, "I'm not that easy to remove from a mission Richard, my heart and mind is set on this course of action and nothing in Olympus or Tartarus would stop me from loving him."

Dick smiled up at her, "You are a real angel Di, even Alfred gets feed up with his obnoxious behavior sometimes."

"Very true Master Richard, but we angels are sent down to look after wayward souls. Master Bruce couldn't find a better one then Miss Diana."

Diana blushed at the compliment. "Thank you Alfred," she responded as she smiled up at him.

"Don't thank me Miss, your the one that has set yourself on a mission that some would say is impossible to complete."

"Thats the understatement of the century." Dick chuckled. Diana laughed and Alfred almost did as well.

Diana gave Alfred a look and he nodded his head as he left the kitchen. "Good to know my sister is in good hands. Richard I have to leave for a while, should be back by tomorrow morning at the latest."

Dick gave her a suspicious look, "Where are you going?"

Diana smiled, "Paris, France."

She stood up and walked determinedly out the room. Dick just smiled and said, "Bruce you poor bastard. I think you have finally met a women with a will stronger than yours."

As she left the kitchen she nearly ran into Alfred who was standing next to the door holding out a piece of paper. Diana cocked her eyebrow, "What is this?"

Alfred's eyes twinkled,"The name of the hotel and room number of Master Bruce's suite, also directions to a charity event he is going to this evening." Diana's mouth turned into a slight smile as she took the paper. Making her way up to her room she opened the door and saw Troia sitting on the bed. Next to her was a black trench coat.

"I hear the weather is a little chilly in Paris this time of year, so I'm loaning you a my fall coat." Diana was speechless, Donna could always tune into emotions better than she could hers.

Walking over to the jacket she looked at it then turned to her sister.

"Thanks Troia. Promise to be back by tonight." Diana hugged her.

"I will not call out for the cavalry until at least the early morning hours." Donna gave her a wink. Diana rolled her eyes.

Diana got dressed in the beautiful Marchesa dress she had worn to dinner the other night that Bruce had liked so much, then when into the bathroom to do her hair and make-up. When she emerged she put on the coat and gave Donna a quick hug before she tapped her ear communicator,"Wonder Woman to the Watchtower."

A male voice replied, "Watchtower here, what can we do for you?"

"I need to be transported to Paris, France. Anywhere near the Hotel Raphael would be great."

"No problem Wonder Woman, we have the coordinates already in the computer's database. Ready when you are."

Diana smiled at her sister, "Ready!"

The sensation of being transported wasn't a new to her but it always gave her tiny butterflies in her stomach. Diana materialized in an alley next to the beautiful hotel, the evening was crisp and the stars where shining bright in the sky. Lucky for her no one saw her being transported. 'It would be hard to explain it to anyone who happened to notice,' she thought.

Diana entered the hotel and asked if Mr. Wayne was in. The desk clerk told her he wasn't. She smiled her thanks. "I guess I'm going to a charity event," she muttered to herself.

Grabbing a cab Diana made her way to Hotel de Crillon and wondered if getting into the event would be a problem. But luck was on her side. A rather large group was trying to get in, which distracted security and gave her enough time to sneak by. She smiled to herself, no wonder Selina is so good at getting into places. Her body was made for sneaking in and out of places.

Diana walked into the main ballroom and looked around at her surroundings. Several hundred people were in the room. Most had taken seats around the large tables. A small group were dancing in the center of the room. Diana noticed him right away.

Bruce was talking to a very pretty dark haired woman. The closer she came to them the stranger she felt. The woman could be a double for her if she was in her own body, other than the woman having hazel eyes the resemblance was uncanny. She noticed that Bruce had on his playboy smile on his face as the female looked at him in awe.

Bruce had noticed the women right away when he entered the charity event and proceeded to charm her. The woman's name was Dido and she was a fashion model but her biggest attraction for Bruce was that she looked like Diana. He'd decided that since he wouldn't allow himself to have the real thing maybe he could satisfy himself with a lookalike. Too bad she was a facade, an empty shell compared to the woman he really wanted.

He had been flirting with Dido for nearly an half an hour when he felt a gentle tap on his shoulder and a female voice that asked, "May I have this dance?"

Bruce stiffened as he heard her voice turned to face the female in question. His smile vanished as he looked at her. She looked stunning and she glowed with a confidence few women possessed. His heart raced at her nearness so he hardened his features as he looked at her.

"Diana what are you doing here?" he asked in a stern voice.

Diana had a coy smile on her face. "Forgot my name already, Brucie. I'm hurt," she said in a playful but loud voice. "Let me remind you, it's Selina Kyle. You playboys are all the same, get what you want and leave without phoning after!" The Wonder Woman lookalike slowly turned and left. She didn't need to be a part of this drama.

Diana nearly laughed but kept the coy smile on her face as Bruce watched the woman leave.

He growled out quietly, "What are you doing here?!" Diana smiled and grabbed his hand pulling him out onto the dance floor.

"I came for a dance," she said as she pulled him into her arms. She rested her head onto his chest and inhaled his wonderful male scent.

"Answer me Diana!" he asked her once again. Having her in his arms was wreaking havoc on his self-control.

"Let's just enjoy this dance since our last one was interrupted but armed men." Bruce let out a deep sigh and continued to mold himself into her as they danced, giving in for the moment to the desire to be near her.

The song ended and he was about to ask her the same question once again but another tap on his shoulder forced him to turn away.

A cute blond smiled up at him, "Can I have this dance?"

Diana pulled away from Bruce. "Sure sweetie, I'm done with him," she said as she turned and walked away. Diana looked seductively over her shoulder and saw the anger and confusion on his face as she walked away.

Diana returned to the hotel where Bruce was staying. She took the elevator to the top floor. She hummed to herself as she waited for the elevator to reach his floor. When the doors opened she made her way to his room. She took a quick look around. Spotting no one she pulled out a lock pick set from her purse.

Chuckling evilly to herself, she picked the lock. 'Thank you Tim,' she thought for teaching her that skill. Once inside, she looked around the room; it was glorious. The suit was fit for a king or I guess in this case the Prince of Gotham she thought with a smile.

Not knowing when he would show up she found a chair that was placed in the corner of the room. The shadows almost hid it and her from sight. It was perfect. She slipped her sandals off and made herself comfortable.

When Bruce entered his room, he knew right away that Diana was there. Her perfume that caught his attention. He stared at the shadowy figure sitting on the chair.

"Come to seduce the infamous Bruce Wayne?" he asked her in a low voice.

"Maybe, but from what I've heard all it takes is a good drink and a stiff breeze." Diana purred out enjoying the game.

Bruce laughed, but then became the Bat, "What are you doing here Diana?!" he growled out.

Diana slowly got up from the chair and sauntered over to him. "I'm here to bring you home," she said as she slowly placed her hand onto his chest. Bruce left brow rose as Diana slowly unfastened his tie. Being this close to him was making her lose her reason.

"Now why would I want to go home when I have such a lovely lady waiting for me right here?" his said in his deep baritone voice.

"Why is it that when I found you tonight you were hitting on almost an exact duplicate of me when I'm in my real body?" she asked him.

Color rose in Bruce's cheeks as he quickly said, "She's a beautiful woman and Bruce Wayne always flirts with beautiful women."

Diana laughed knowingly, "Sure Bruce whatever you say." She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips lightly.

"I came to get you to come home. But we don't have to leave right away." Diana whispered as she looked into his blue eyes, feeling the sexual chemistry they shared with each other. Bruce's lip turned into a cocky half smile as his eyes bore into hers.

He looked over to the bed then turned his gaze to her. Bending down he captured her lips and he slowly seduced her with his mouth. Bruce removed the undone tie and his tuxedo jacket. Next he unbuttoned his shirt and removed it also.

He stopped kissing Diana. The desire in his eyes matched hers. She stared at his muscular chest and looked at the scars on it. They filled her with a savage excitement. 'He was a warrior like her,' she thought. She ran her tongue along a long scar on his chest. Bruce slid his hands around her to the back of her dress and pulled down the zipper. The dress slipped down her body so that she was now clad in just a black strapless bra and black lace panties. He bent down and started to kiss and suck on her neck and shoulder area.

He picked her up and walked her over to the bed, she wrapped her legs around his waist. Laying her down he proceeded to climb on top of her. Diana's mind was a blaze as he returned to kissing her, she couldn't think straight. Something was bothering her but she couldn't place her finger on it. All she could think about was how much she wanted him. When she remembered why this wasn't right he found a weak spot on her neck. It forced her mind to forget the reason.

Bruce pressed his excitement against her hip as he pulled back looking into her lust filled eyes.

"Now you know why I flew half way across the globe." Bruce growled out as he removed himself from her. Diana blinked her eyes in confusion. 'Why had he stopped?' she wondered. 'What was he talking about?' Diana's mind raced.

"I told you before I will not take advantage of this situation, but you continue to push my boundaries." he growled out.

Diana laid there trying to regain her normal heart rate and breathing. Her mind was still too clouded by passion to understand what he was talking about. She looked up at him in confusion. Bruce saw the look and tried to explain the problem to her.

"Would you of stopped me from making love to you just now?" he asked her.

Diana took a deep breath and said, "No." Then it dawned on her. She was in Selina's body and it would be wrong to use it that way. Bruce saw the revelation on Diana's face.

"Now you see why I came here, Diana I.." he had to turn his back to her, he couldn't think straight at the moment. "I care for you, maybe when this switch thing is over we can talk about what almost happened here.. but until then we have to stop playing with fire. Someone is going to get hurt. What if we had just made love and Selina's body became pregnant?"

Diana sat up on the bed and wrapped her arms around her knees as she rested her chin on them. Her mind was trying to process how she allowed this game to get out of control.

"Bruce your right, I'm sorry."

"Not as sorry as you would have been if I wasn't in full control." he glared at her. His face softened.

"Diana," he said as he moved his face closer to hers as he sat on the bed next to her. "Your the only woman I lose myself to, its not your body, mind or spirit." He closed his eyes in thought. "It's every aspect of you. No matter what body you host, your aura shines through. It's like I can see your soul."

Diana was shocked but pleased at Bruce's words. 'Then why was he always pushing away from her?' she asked herself.

"Then why are you always pulling away from me when we get close?" Diana asked in a soft voice.

Bruce pulled back a little, "You don't want to know Diana." he said softly. Diana sat up and placed a hand on his bare shoulder.

"Yes I do. Tell me why Bruce."

"You have heard my reasons before, but the real reason is simple. I will corrupt you, draw you into my darkness and this world needs Wonder Woman as she is. A symbol of truth and love. I will crush and destroy your light like I've done to everyone around me!"

"You don't think very highly of yourself Mr. Wayne or me for that matter." Diana said angrily. She got off the bed and stalked about the room in her fury. He looked at her with a confused expression.

"Have really you corrupted any of your cohorts? No. Richard, Tim, and Barbara are shining lights on Gotham and the rest of the world. You taught them skills that make them exceptional human beings." Diana pushed a messy stand of hair from her face.

"You think that you can make me into something I'm not? Do you really think I am that weak? I am an Amazon princess for Hera's sake! You think so low of yourself sometimes it scares me but that you think so low of me makes me angry." Diana glared at him. Bruce was so stunned by her outburst he was speechless.

"Stop making yourself out to be the monster." Diana added in a regal manner, "If anyone is to change because of a relationship between the two of use it's you."

Bruce nearly laughed at her last statement. Leave it to Diana to be the one to call him on his bullshit, even the bullshit he had convinced himself was truth."You really do think highly of yourself, Princess?".

Diana smiled, but didn't comment as his statement had diffused most of her anger. She could sense she was close to victory in the battle to get him to come home.

"Your needed back in Gotham Bruce, we need you there for the process." Diana went in with a frontal assault.

"No, Zatanna will be there." he tried to defend his stance in leaving.

Diana looked at him with a bit of contempt. "Stop hiding because your scared of your feelings. I promise you that I will not throw myself at you again until this is over!" she said with a laugh.

"Can I have that in writing?" he joked as he smiled at her.

'Victory!' Diana thought but said, "If it gets you to come back, then yes."

"Okay I'll come back for the switch." Bruce grumbled out.

"Great, so when can we expect to see you at the manor?" Diana asked.

"I will arrange for my private jet to fly back tonight so I'll be back at the manor in the morning." Bruce said in defeat.

Diana pulled her dress back on and turned to Bruce so he could zip her up. She repressed the shiver that went down her spine at his touch. She put on her sandals and Donna's coat. She then looked in the mirror and fixed her hair. "I'll see you in the morning, Bruce." she said with a wink and a kiss on the cheek.

"Wonder Woman to watchtower, need a transport back to my last location."

As she disappeared she heard him curse at her for using the League transporter system for personal use.

When Diana arrived back at the manor, Alfred was waiting for her by the Cave's transporter pad.

"Is he coming back Miss?" Alfred asked her.

"Yes Alfred, said he would be back in the morning." Diana said as the two made their way back up to the manor.

Selina was sitting in a chair when Diana walked into the study. The book Selina was reading was upside down in her hands.

"Selina, if you're going to pretend to read a book you should at least hold it the right way." Diana said as she grabbed it and flipped it around. Selina just gave her the evil eye, but it changed to shock and anger quickly.

"Why are you dressed like that!" she growled out. "Did you go on a date in my body!"

Diana was taken aback by her accusation; she had forgotten that she was dressed to the nines. She was scrambling for something to say when Alfred came into the room.

"Did you enjoy your dinner with Kal-El and his girlfriend, your highness?"

Diana looked at Alfred in confusion for a slit second before catching on and answering. "Yes, we had a lovely time."

All the anger left Selina at Alfred's question, "Sorry.." Selina grumbled out in an apology as she left the study.

"Thank you. You really are quick with a cover story." Diana said in awe.

Alfred gave her a slight smile, "I've had years of practice covering for Master Bruce."

"Of course," Diana laughed as Alfred gave her a slight bow and left the room.

Diana sighed and sat down. Bruce would be back tomorrow morning and hopefully she would have her body back by tomorrow night. She send a little prayer to her goddesses that all would be well and this ordeal would be over soon.
