Honey Glayzed 50

Sealed With A Kiss

George leaned back in the bathwater. The scent of the fragrant bubbles relaxed him further. He heard Jhaymes in their bedroom on the telephone with High Prince Nestoir. "Finding what country he is in is going to be difficult but that is not the main problem. It's more on the line of when he is." George frowned. "You don't say..."George wondered what Nestoir had said. "I'm so sorry to hear that. Offer my condolences to them. Of course, I will ask Ponchi to investigate. Yes I will have to pry her from George's hair, but she will fly faster than I would and be less noticed." Ponchi stood on her doorstep in her little house with a nod. "Oh, really? Well that does change things a bit. Alright Your highness. Again my deepest condolence to the great dragon clan."

Ponchi shifted into her full form. "What is it?" Ponchi offered Jhaymes a handkerchief. She heard a splash and looked up to see George exiting his bath. After a few moments he left with a towel wrapped around his head and a thick bathrobe.

"Nari!" Jhaymes called. George sat on the bed concerned. He placed a hand on Jhaymes shoulder. "You are going with Ponchi tomorrow to Wales. I will stay here tomorrow with Buffy."

"What's the assignment?" Nari asked wondering which weapons he should pick and if he would run into George's ancestors while he was there. True they hailed from Ireland and currently lived in England, but there was always a possibility.

"Collection," Jhaymes sipped from a cup of tea. "Remember I told you that several of the Dragon Larvae of the time weir had been stolen. Well one of them have been found. He's dead. Appears that he was being used for food while alive. It looks like the killing was a mercy."

"Oh my gosh," George sighed. He leaned his head on Jhaymes shoulder. "A baby..." George wiped his eyes. "A little dragon baby."

"A larvae, yes," Jhaymes patted George's hand in a tender manner. "Little, no."

"Sometimes, we fight so hard," Nari shook his head. "To protect the humans from the monsters. What do we do when the greatest monster of them all is the humans?" Nari backed from the room with a bow to Jhaymes and a wink at George. "I will prepare to depart at dawn."

"Yes," Dawn stuck her head in the room as she heard her name. She paused when Nari backed into her dropping the bath supplies she carried. "I was just going to shower. Did you need me for something?"

"What? No, why?" Nari scooped up her shower gel and handed it to her.

"You said my name," Dawn giggled her cheeks turning red at the shiver the timbre of his voice caused.

"Oh, no, sorry about that," Nari laughed. "I said we would leave at dawn. Mission." Nari winked at Dawn then headed to his room to assemble his weapons. Ponchi giggled from inside George and Jhaymes room.

"You should go help him," Jhaymes said shooing the fairy away.

"I suppose you want me to sleep in with him as well." Ponchi teased kissing George's cheek she was still laughing as she entered Nari's room and shut the door. Dawn stood in the hall for a moment more then headed into the bathroom. So Ponchi slept with Nari... Dawn tried not to think about it.

Jhaymes turned around to see George rubbing his skin cream into his skin. "Let me." Jhaymes took the cream away. Jhaymes warmed the mixture between his hands while George lay on his stomach on the bed. "You worked a special kind of magic in the kitchen today." Jhaymes kneaded the shoulder muscles. He leaned in and kissed the base of George's neck. Jhaymes worked his way down George's arms intertwining their fingers he lay over the top of George. The feel of the crisp clothes over his naked, fresh bathed skin fueled his desire to be loved. George arched his back. The response he could feel caused a smile to lift his cheeks. Jhaymes pressed in close. "You drive me mad," He whispered in George's ear.

"What are you going to do about it?" George asked his mischievous grin turned on Jhaymes. It was all the provocation needed for him to roll George over onto his back. Jhaymes dove into his mouth. He allowed his tongue to forage inside. George trailed his tongue over the roof of Jhaymes mouth. The groan was music to his ears.

"Your mouth is truly a thing of wonder," Jhaymes purred against George's lips.

"Oh really," George grinned. He pushed Jhaymes off of him. "You should get undressed." Jhaymes fingers began to work his shirt free. He gasped when George took over pulling the garment from Jhaymes. George trailed his finger over the firm pectorals. George leaned in using his tongue to follow his fingers. He found a pert peak and nipped it. Jhaymes gasped bringing his hands up to George's hair. He found the mass still wrapped in a towel. He unwound it letting the damp locks fall around George's shoulders. The cool hair brushed against Jhaymes in deep contrast to the hot mouth.

George began to undo the pants next. He kissed his way down over Jhaymes stomach. Jhaymes shed his pants and underwear. George greeted his weeping prize with a small kiss. "Oh darling," the reverence in Jhaymes voice melted into a deep moan as George kissed down the sides and licked up to the top. George palmed the fleshy globes beneath while his mouth enveloped the throbbing hardness. Jhaymes gripped the sheets and looked down. He crashed into the light colored eyes. George managed to smile with a full mouth then took Jhaymes all the way in again. "Sweet mercy," Jhaymes hands found George's head.

Jhaymes became lost in the wet heat of George's mouth. George relaxed into the involuntary thrusting. Feeling the fullness hit the back of his throat, he swallowed each offering as it poured forth. He knew Jhaymes was close and continued sucking adding pressure from his hands. Jhaymes called his name as he released. George sat up licking his lips. He soon did not know where his lips ended and Jhaymes began. Jhaymes pulled until George was standing in front of him. Jhaymes dove in like a starving man sucking George in.

Sublime. It was the only word George could think as Jhaymes devoured him. Jhaymes backed away to suck his fingers. George relaxed waiting and was not disappointed. Those fingers began to work their magic inside of him. "Tell me how you want me," George could feel his end near and knew that Jhaymes would drink it all. He held on as stars danced before his closed eyes.

"Lay down," Jhaymes said after swallowing. Jhaymes arranged pillows under George's head before he climbed on top of him. George relaxed feeling the pressure of the penetration. He whimpered in pure joy as each inch of his lover sank into him. "Feels like going home," Jhaymes whispered in the ear he began to nibble. George held Jhaymes close as he began to move and took them both to the sky and beyond.

Ryo saw him first. Walking down the hall with his head held high. Bikky inhaled the wind his face breaking into a wide smile. Dee grinned seeing his son stand so proud. Not even his squiring had filled them with this much joy. Rain entered the throne room shocked to see them all still waiting as the sun prepared to rise. Had they sat all night waiting for him? Rain blinked away the moisture from his eyes. Walking to Zarro he dropped into a full formal bow. Rain raised his head to see the approval from the enormous feline. Rain left the golden cuffs at the feet of the beast. "Good show young man. Now tell me. Who are you?"

Rain stood to his feet. His tossed his hair over his shoulder and met the high king's eyes with pride. "I am Rain Cloud Cornwall MacLean, wind rider of the nation, prince of the eastern fire dragons, and a squire of Arcadia."

Andy could not hold in the tears as he answered her question that she had begun to ask him months ago. Always he would not say Cloud and Cornwall, as if he had truly buried his past. Now, seeing him standing there so tall, so whole, she just wanted to hug him. Andy moved fast before his family could reach him and held him tight. She tossed a smirk at them then moved aside. "Why don't you guys just sleep in here today. You must all be exhausted."

"I think Ryo is asleep," Rain joked after seeing Ryo leaning against Dee. They stood near to him and waited for their turn to embrace him. Ryo tugged Rain's hair, embraced his son then let out a wide yawn. Zarro watched the sun crest over his kingdom before he placed his large paws into their backs and shooed them all to bed.

"Change of plans," Were the first words JJ said to Jhaymes. Nari stood on the porch with his weapons stowed on his person. Dawn stood in awe of Ponchi's long Sapphire hair. At full height the fairy was taller than Buffy. Her wings fanned behind her matching the pattern of tattoos on her arms and face. The markings went on her side visible under the cropped corset top. Her leather shorts cut off at the thigh while her boots went to her knees. Next to her Nari was wearing a similar outfit yet he wore pants and a full vest. Dawn did not want to try to guess how many weapons he carried.

"Change?" Nari asked moving his hair aside to stare in horror at Lord D. The deep blue cheongsam fell to the floor and the sleeves covered his hands.

"There is full blown trouble in Wales," Miaka stepped around her partner to explain. "Taking a full set including a medic. Sofu saw a need of a delicate, yet powerful touch."

Nari looked to Lord D and nodded. While Ponchi shifted her stance she closed her eyes, then clapped her hands. Dawn backed away from the double bladed scythe. "Then we had best make sure we get you safely there and home to your papa. Hadn't planned on taking this with us, but I think I should." What Ponchi did not say was her fear of what the great, pregnant, Sofu D would do if any harm were to befall his eldest son. Ponchi went to the kitchen to have access to the basement. "I can't believe they are sending him out on a mission," Dawn heard her mutter.

Dawn waited until the the group had left before she made her way to Jhaymes. "Is there something wrong with Lord D that he can't go?"

"Only that he can't fight," Jhaymes shook his head with a laugh at Ponchi's disgruntlement. "And if anything should happen to him Sofu D will have the head of whoever was in charge of him." Jhaymes shook his head. "With him being pregnant and cranky, a splinter could be a smite worthy offense. I mean if he comes home needing his hair brushed he may vacuum slap them."

"Vacuum slap?" Buffy asked picturing the staid Sofu D holding a vacuum to slap someone with it.

"The air around the person can be expelled with such force that it slaps them." Jhaymes explained. "I saw him do it in 1834... man lost half his face."

"Hair...out of place," Buffy asked in shock.

"You don't understand," Jhaymes sniffed the air and smiled. Seemed like George was making waffles. He had prepared toast and eggs for Nari and Ponchi earlier. "Lord D is Sofu's weakness, his baby. Lord D is spoiled."

"Oh he's a darling," George commented spraying his waffle iron. George looked at Buffy then. "Although if there is something on this world that he wants his father will move this earth to get it for him."

"Spoiled..." Jhaymes mouthed. He felt George's hand in a playful swat to his bottom. "But he's not bratty."

"No," George said with a smile. "He really is sweet."

Dawn frowned as she had a thought. "Well what does he do when he doesn't get his way?"

Jhaymes paused in the act of stealing a kiss from George. "That's a good question... I have never actually seen him not get his way." Jhaymes thought back over the many years that he had known Lord D. "Even when it was detrimental to his own health his father allowed him his wishes."

"What do you mean detrimental to his health," Buffy asked hoping to keep Jhaymes occupied so that George could finish breakfast. She had been planning on waking up to see Ponchi and Nari off, but the noise of Dawn getting up had awakened her. She had not expected her sister to want to wake up before the sun rise, but for some reason she really wanted to say goodbye.

"Let's just say his lover was not a lovely person," Jhaymes explained. Buffy would have said more but decided to shower instead.

Miaka and Ponchi took their flight position on either side of Nari. JJ sat upon the Pegasus back with his arms secure around Lord D. He was not sure about having him on this mission. It was supposed to be a simple collection of the remains of the time wyrm. Something Sofu D had dreamed last night had changed the plans at the last minute. He was not sure what it was. Miaka pulled up short then gasped. "What?" JJ asked.

"Something's wrong," Miaka's ears perked up poking from her dark hair. "There," Miaka pointed. Nari looked down then followed the elf to the ground. JJ held tight to Lord D wishing he had time to get him somewhere safe before they landed. Ponchi lifted higher flying directly above them to offer a shield of protection. "They are dying, they are all dying!" Miaka clapped her hands together. She flew directly to JJ and blew a kiss. "That is an invisible air lock shield, whatever poison you will be safe."

"Give it to him," JJ said looking at Lord D.

"I'm immune," Lord D gasped when he saw the two men laying on the ground. "Oh no, Jack..." Lord D nearly plummeted to the ground as he attempted to get to the side of the two men.

"Whoa, Lord D," Ponchi caught the anxious kami and flew him to the ground. "Your father will maim us all if you are injured, please have a care."

"They are dying," Lord D fell to his knees at their side.

"Never forget me, please..." The man in the elegant suit was saying.

"I'll never forget you... I love you," The other man was saying as he too began to succumb to the poison. The man paused as he saw a blanketing of deep green and gold. The folds of soft silk were fragrant. He looked up in awe. "Delicious... What are you...?"

"I really don't have time to explain," Lord D placed his fingers on the prone man's neck. "Ponchi give me your dagger." The blue fairy wasted no time giving him the sharp weapon. "His name, I need his name." Jack coughed then and Lord D realized he was dying as well. "His name..."

"Ianto..." Jack wept, wheezed and said. "Ianto Jones."

"Good..." Lord D sliced through the clothing baring Ianto's chest. There was a thin line of blood. "Sorry," He muttered and placed both of his hands flush against Ianto's chest one palm directly over his heat. "Ianto Jones... Stay!" Lord D smiled as Ianto's eyes opened and he coughed. "I caught him..." Lord D smiled. "Tell me Jack. He is your lover." Jack nodded. "Do you love him?"

Jack looked into Ianto's eyes and his tears fell. "I love him." Jack affirmed. "I love him."

"Good..." Lord D looked down into Ianto's eyes. "Do you love Jack?" Ianto looked up confused. Was this some sort of resurrection glove? He thought they destroyed them both. Maybe the gorgeous Asian had another one. "Time is short, I can't hold you for much longer." Lord D gasped and began to tremble as his entire body began to glow golden. "Do you love Jack?"

"I love him," Ianto said feeling a coldness creep through his entire body. Was this death? The coldness had to be death. He was close and if the last thing he thought or said was how much he loved Jack, then he would go knowing that Jack knew that he loved him. "I love him."

"And you want to be together?" Lord D asked. He panicked when he saw that Jack was losing consciousness. "Stay with me, I can't hold you both."

"I will stay with him til I die," Jack leaned over to kiss Ianto's face.

"I will stay with him," Ianto affirmed.

"So be it," Lord D began to chant in Chinese. He looked at Jack. " I need two things before you die, this time. Tell me, is your essence in him? Have you made love?" Jack nodded beyond the ability to speak as the poison rushed through his body. "Good, now...Kiss him." Jack leaned over Ianto and pressed their lips together before he fell over dead.

"Oh my gosh," JJ rushed forward to lay Jack on his back. "I will start resuscitation, keep working on him."

"No, JJ dear," Lord D said with a small smile. "It's alright, he will be okay. They both will." Lord D remove his hand from Ianto's chest to inhale. He leaned in and blew into Ianto's mouth. Ianto gasped as he exhaled and deep dark smoke billowed from his lips.

"Sweetheart, he's dead," JJ said feeling no pulse from Jack.

"I know," Lord D smiled before he began to fall back. Miaka was quick to catch him. "He'll be fine."

"I'm cold," Ianto said his voice weak.

"You will be," Lord D leaned fully against Miaka. "For a bit, but Jack saved you when he kissed you." Lord D began to weep as he realized that of all the people dying, Ianto was the only one he had been able to save.
