A/N: Last chapter guys! Sorry about how long it's taken to write, and this will be my last one until about November. I can't write fan fiction and do schoolwork at the same time, sorry! I hope you enjoyed reading it, and thank you all for sticking with the story. I also appreciate all the comments and reviews left by you all! Ok, here it is, chapter 12!
P.S. Just a little warning, there are some M rated themes in here. Thought I probably should warn you...
Chapter 12
Dom opened his door, after a tiring morning of training, and almost stepped on a piece of paper on the floor just beyond the door. Curious, he picked up the note, broke the wax seal and read it. As he read, he felt himself getting angrier and angrier. Surprisingly not hurt, but angry. He checked the time of day; mid afternoon, she would be downstairs socialising; then stormed off to find Mio and Derrym.
He strode off down the corridor, passing Kel, who looked back, then, when he had passed and couldn't see her, she followed.

Kel followed Dom to the Great Hall, where Mio was chatting to Princess Shinkokami, Yuki and two other ladies in waiting, Taioru daHokima and Lady Daisuke raKorimokonoe.
"Lady Mio saNorimoko!" Dom bellowed.
"Dom? What is it?" she replied innocently.
"May I ask who Derrym is?"
"I...I don't know Dom, why?" She blushed.
"You know damn well who he is, you harlot!" he yelled, causing several ladies to blush, "You've been having sex with him, I know you have!"
Mio dropped all pretence of innocence, "And so what if I have? We're not married Dom, it's none of your business who I sleep with!"
"Mio, you broke my trust, we were lovers! You're a cheating whore and I never want to speak to you again!"
"You drove me to it! You never paid me any attention except when we made love! Even then, you always called me something else, what was it? Ket, Kol, something like that! Well go and fuck your Kol then, I can easily find another lover!"
The ladies gasped and tried to berate Mio for her unladylike behaviour.
"Oh shut up!" she yelled.
"You're not worthy of the title Lady, Mio, you belong in a brothel with all the other strumpets. We're finished!" Dom stormed off.
Kel stood, shocked. "Go and fuck your Kol then"? she thought, Kol or...Kel? Kel went back upstairs, through the corridors, and knocked on Dom's door.

Mio was shocked. How had Dom found out? Had Derrym told someone? But what she was most shocked about was the fact that he had confronted her in public about it. Everyone stared at her, and Shinkokami looked livid with anger.
"Lady Mio, a private word please," said Shinkokami. It was not a request, but an order.
"Of course, Your Highness," she replied, curtseying.
Mio was taken to Shinkokami's private chambers. She sat in a chair covered with the Yamani cloth of estate, and Mio was forced to stand before her.
"Lady Mio saNorimoko, are the accusations of Sergeant Domitian of Queenscove true?" Shinkokami asked.
"Yes, Your Highness," she replied.
"Lady Mio saNorimoko, you have shamed and disgraced not only yourself, but all of us; Lady Daisuke raKorimokonoe, Taioru daHokima, Lady Yukimi of Queenscove, formerly Lady Yukimi nohDaiomoru and, most of all, myself, your supposedly beloved Princess Shinkokami of the Yamani Islands."
"That was never my intention, Your Majesty."
"But you did. For such a crime, I sentence you to be sent back to the Yamani Islands in disgrace. You have broken our trust, and I shall find another lady in waiting to replace you. Now go and pack your trunks. You shall leave first thing tomorrow morning. Dismissed!"
"Yes, milady." Mio curtseyed and left to pack her trunks.

The door swung open to reveal Dom.
"Oh Kel, come in," said Dom, stepping aside to let her pass and closing the door behind her.
"Thanks Dom. I...actually, I have a confession to make," she replied.
"I know you wrote that note Kel. I wanted to thank you."
"How did you know?" she asked, surprised.
"I recognised the handwriting. Here, sit down," he said, gesturing towards the bed, the only place in the room to sit. Kel sat.
"Kel, you made me realise Mio's true nature. She had me totally blinded as to her...extracurricular activities. And...there's something else as well," he continued.
"What is it?"
"Kel, I...I love you," he said, walking towards her. His foot caught in a snag in the rug and he pitched forward onto the bed. Onto Kel.
"Dom, I love you too," she replied, twining her arms around his neck. He brought his lips to hers, and gently kissed her. Kel felt her heart leap at Dom's kiss and passion flared between them as Dom deepened the kiss, his tongue tangling with hers, duelling. Kel ran her hands across Dom's chest, to the ties holding his shirt closed. She untied them and slid the shirt over his head and onto the floor, then fell to exploring the wide expanse, hard with muscle and sparse crinkled hairs. She was so enthralled that she barely noticed when Dom removed her shirt, breeches, breastband and loincloth. Dom pulled away and she scooted backwards up the bed. While she was doing that, he turned away and removed his breeches and loincloth, then turned back to the bed, to Kel. Kel felt her mouth go suddenly dry and heat began to pool between her legs as she looked at him, large and flagrantly aroused. He came over to her and kissed her again, letting his hands find her breasts and knead, then his fingers found the pink peaks and rolled them between his fingers. Kel's head fell back on a gasp and his lips found her pink peaks. He took one into his mouth and suckled, then rasped it with his teeth. Kel gasped and arched towards him as sensation streaked through her. He moved to the other breast soothing the tortured peak of the other one with his fingers.
"Dom..." Kel gasped. He lifted away, looked at her and smiled. This was what he had been dreaming of, having Kel hot, naked and wanting beneath him. Then he nudged her thighs wider and settled between. Kel gasped as she felt the large head of his manhood nudging her heat, then he slid slowly in. Kel gasped and clung to him as she felt a sharp pain when he thrusted in.
"Kel, you didn't tell me you were a virgin," Dom said. His voice sounded strained with passion.
"Is...is that it?" Kel asked, eyes wide.
"Sweetheart, of course not. We've only just begun."
Then Dom began to slide backwards and forwards. Kel gasped, riding each thrust as he rode her. She could feel the peak drawing closer, and she surrendered to it, climaxing around him, riding the waves of blissful pleasure. Dom soon followed her into the scorching fires, slumping onto her as he spilled his seed into her. They slipped into sated sleep.

Lady Knight Keladry of Mindelan and Sergeant Domitian of Queenscove married three weeks later. Lady Yukimi of Queenscove and Lalasa played the part of Kel's bridesmaids and Irnai, the seer child, came to Corus to be the flower girl, and was staying on at the castle afterwards. Tobeis Boon was the page boy for the wedding, and Sir Nealan of Queenscove was Dom's best man. The wedding was a beautiful affair, and as Kel and Dom rode away to their honeymoon in a carriage, life at Corus seemed to be complete. Page Larsen of Pirate's Swoop was happy to see Kel married and hoped that he and his new lover, Page Raalia of Whitethorn, would someday find such happiness.
