It was the next morning, and it was to be the day of Lucius' trial. Aria had slept at her flat for the first time in a very long time the night before; although the Manor was there waiting for her, she couldn't face the Manor without her love by her side. It would be a great homecoming for them to arrive back to the Manor together and complete yet again. She would wait until he was free.

She wanted to look her absolute best and professional for the day and so she dressed in her finest pair of silk black trousers, paired with an equally as impressive silk black blazer over an emerald green satin top; she paired it with the gorgeous green pearl bracelet that Lucius and the Slytherin's had given her back at Hogwarts. She appraised herself in the mirror and felt confident, something she greatly needed today. She knew Harry was going to call her as a witness during the trial, even though the rest of the Ministry judges and officials didn't know that yet. She was going to be the surprise that would turn the trial's favor towards Lucius. She smiled knowing she would be there to help save him, just as he was always there to save her. He had given her so much and now she would help get him his life and freedom back, something he so greatly deserved.

Aria grabbed her bag and headed out of her flat and into the bright, crisp morning. She had opted to walk to work today instead of taking Floo Powder or apparating. The November air was quite cold and brisk, but Aria drew in deep, calming breaths; the chill of the air keeping her mind and body alert and energized. She was quite nervous, and her heart was in a constant state of rapid beating, but the beautiful walk by St. James Park did her some good and soon she found herself at the telephone booths that would take her down to the Ministry.

As the telephone booth took her down into the atrium of the Ministry, the sense of calm she had obtained during her walk over instantly disappeared and she was nothing but a ball of nerves. She knew she couldn't go to her desk and work until she was summoned, so she decided to take the lifts down directly to the Ministry courtrooms. She knew Lucius' trial wasn't going to start until 9:30 in the morning, and it was currently just about the top of the hour. As she waited, she decided to hide herself around one of the corners from the main courtroom the trial was to be held in. Slowly she saw many important witches and wizards pour into the room including the Minister for Magic himself.

She began pacing back and forth, as she constantly kept looking around the corner to see when Lucius would be taken into the room. She saw Hermione and Harry arrive together, and she poked her head around the corner so that Harry could briefly catch her eye. Luckily, he saw her right as she turned back around to hide behind the corner, and he quickly made his way over to where she was.

"Morning Aria," he said with a light smile on his face.

"Morning," she replied back, her voice sounding light and short of breath.

Harry picked up on her nervousness and tried to calm her down. "It'll be okay Aria. Just wait here until you are summoned in. A guard will come out and get you to bring you in. I will be the one asking you the questions, so there is no need to be nervous. You know I am doing everything I can to help you. It'll be okay."

"Thanks Harry!" she said as she quickly hugged him tight and then let him go so that he could join the rest of his colleagues in the courtroom.

She continued to pace more and more behind the corner she was keeping a low profile in, when she briefly saw Narcissa and Draco make their way up to the courtroom door. An instant feeling of rage boiled in her and she so wished she could hex them right then and there. Her hand instinctually went to grab her wand, but she managed to control her rage and she leaned back up against the cool stone wall and slid down so that she was seated on the floor. She just couldn't believe Narcissa and Draco had the indecency to come to Lucius' trial this morning; after everything they already put him through; it actually didn't surprise her though. She was sure they were full of nothing but smugness at the moment, thinking that they would watch him be hauled away, back to Azkaban. Well Aria couldn't wait to prove them wrong, and she would revel in the feeling to see their faces when they realized he would be going free.

Finally, at around 9:28 in the morning Aria heard more footsteps coming down the hallway towards the door to the courtroom. She slowly stood to her feet and peaked her head around the corner, and nearly ran out from her hiding spot when she saw Lucius and two guards making their way towards the door. It hurt her heart to see Lucius' hands magically tied together in front of him; his iconic cane with his wand in it was held by one of the guards leading him in and the other guard had his own wand trained on Lucius; the guard must have been using some charm or spell to make sure that Lucius wouldn't run or do anything dangerous. Although Aria was hidden from view from anyone coming down the hallway, as she peaked around the corner, she saw Lucius' eyes instinctually dart over to where her hiding place was. Could he sense her there? An extremely small smile appeared on his lips and gave Aria her answer. Her heart soared at the knowledge that he knew she was there. He could sense her.


As for Lucius himself, as he walked up to the doors of the courtroom, he felt his stomach curdling into a bundle of nerves, not for himself, but for Aria. All he cared about was her safety and her emotions in that moment. Today would be a huge day for them; for their relationship. Soon everyone would know of their connection and love. Lucius felt a sense of relief that it would finally be out in the open and they could be free to express their love anywhere, but he knew that Aria would soon be the source of much gossip, newspaper articles, intrigue and fame.

Of course, he would never show these nerves and emotions outwardly, and his arrogant aloofness was in full force. Right before he entered the courtroom, he felt her presence; his Aria. He didn't know how he knew, but he just knew she was there already. He felt her there, as she hid from view, and his own magic was reaching out towards her like a magnet. He briefly smiled to himself before the guards rudely shoved him into the courtroom and closed the doors behind him.


Aria knew the trial had started, as the hallway was now devoid of people. The stillness and the quiet of her surroundings unnerved her. She began pacing again, but this time in front of the courtroom door, waiting for when the guard would come out and get her and call her as witness. Her breath was rapid, and she was beginning to sweat a little bit. She felt like she desperately needed some air and she was worried she would go into a state of panic; but as she thought about it to herself, she knew it wasn't air or nerves she needed; it was Lucius, and she was about to get him back. Right as she thought this, the door to the courtroom opened, nearly banging Aria on the head as she was still pacing back and forth. She jumped a little bit which caused the guard to flinch.

"Ah sorry Sir," said Aria with a charming smile on her face. "Just a bit nervous."

The guard, clearly charmed by her politeness and beauty, smiled at her briefly, "It's alright Miss. You have been requested as a witness. Are you ready to come in? If so, follow me," he said as he opened the door wider for her to let her in.

Aria swallowed hard and made her way into the courtroom. The room was completely silent. Clearly no one had been expecting a witness, and as Aria looked around the circular room, she saw everyone was on the edge of their seats. There were several reporters, one of whom she knew as the notorious reporter, Rita Skeeter. They all looked at her as she entered the room as if she was some unearthly, Alien-like creature. She was a new-comer and had managed to remain fairly under-the-radar in terms of the larger British Wizarding World during her few months there, and she knew that all of the reporters who constantly wrote newspaper articles on Lucius' public and private life, were wondering who this new girl associated with him was.

She could hear every click and clack of her heels as she walked down the center of the walkway towards the middle of the room to where Lucius was sitting in a solitary chair in the center. All of the witches and wizards in the Ministry who were involved, the reporters and of course Draco and Narcissa, looked down on her from above, all with faces ranging from disdain, to stoicness to expectedness; they all completely unnerved her. However, when she looked to her right at her lover, who looked back at her lovingly, a wave of comfort washed over her and she knew instantly that she would be able to get through this, for both of them.

Harry Potter stood up from where he sat high above them and began speaking; asking her questions. He was very formal, but she could tell he was being calm and gentle in his demeanor to calm her. She was so lucky to have him on her side, and she knew he would phrase his questions so that it would be beneficial to herself and to Lucius.

"Miss De La Cour, the Ministry would like to ask you a few questions, as it pertains to the charges against Mr. Lucius Malfoy. Are you willing to answer these questions with nothing but the truth? If so, please raise your wand in your right hand and say the incantation, Veritasemper," said Harry formally.

"Yes sir, I am willing," replied Aria, who then raised up her wand in her right hand an incanted loudly and clearly into the chamber, "Veritasemper!"

"Thank you. Now Miss De La Cour, can you please recount for us the night of September the 6th and your interactions with Paulo Santos, one of the other new Ministry Ambassadors in your program."

Aria swallowed hard again, the part she had been dreading the most was now upon her, and although she knew it would be one of the first things she had to talk about, she still had a sense of shame and embarrassment talking about it.

"Yes…um…. well… that night I had been walking home after a brief get together with some friends down at the pub. As I was about to get to my flat, I heard someone behind me, and it was Paulo Santos. He had been following me and then he…." Aria swallowed back the nerves and tears threatening to spill over. She looked briefly down at Lucius who was looking up at her with such fierce, grey eyes filled with love and passion and adoration for her. She felt a surge of relief wash through her and she continued. "Well he then proceeded to drag me to the side of the building and attempted to rape me." At that point Aria could hear an intake of breath in the room. Several of the reporters were writing furiously on their notepads, some taking photos, while mostly everyone else in the room looked on waiting to hear the rest.

Aria continued, "I tried to resist and get away…I could smell heavy alcohol on his breath. He had drunk the most out of all of us, as the rest of us only had one drink that night. I was completely sober, and I could feel his hands over me…he…he managed to grope and molest my breasts…and then when I tried to resist some more he slapped and punched me…and then he even choked me…." Aria said as her hands instinctively went up to her throat as if to protect her neck from an invisible force. She looked back down at Lucius, who had his head bowed, but she could see anger written all over his features. His eyes were closed in the pain of the memory, as he listened to her recount what happened before he had arrived to save her.

Many of the Ministry officials were now looking at each other with concern, as they listened to the young witch's story. Harry then spoke to Aria as gently and calmly as before.

"And then what happened next Miss De La Cour?" he said with an encouraging nod of his head and kind smile.

"Well the next thing I remember is being saved. Being saved by this man here to my right, Lucius Malfoy. Without him, so much worse would have happened to me, he saved me in so many senses of the word. He saved me from being beaten even worse than I was…and he saved my…my innocence from being taken from me that horrible night. He made sure I was safe and back in my own apartment. I owe him everything that night."

Harry nodded and continued, "And how did Mr. Malfoy know that you needed help?"

"He just knew…"Aria began, not sure how she would explain to this room full of 'normal' witches and wizards about their extremely rare and special connection.

"From what he told me, one minute he was in his home minding his own business and then the next he had a feeling…he somehow knew I was in danger and he knew exactly where to find me to save me," smiled Aria.

The crowd whispered and murmured again to each other as they heard her story. Her eyes fell on Narcissa who glared at her through pale blue eyes of hatred.

Harry continued but this time he focused his attentions on Lucius, who had yet to say anything aloud while Aria was in the room. She had assumed before she was allowed in, he had taken full responsibility for his actions, without ever really telling the Ministry officials why he had done what he did.

"Mr. Malfoy, your claims before made us to believe that you acted out against Paolo Santos for no reason at all. Miss De La Cour's testimony of that night now leads us to believe that there was indeed a reason…do you deny her recounting of that night?"

"No, I do not," said Lucius plainly.

"So why didn't you tell the Ministry before? You had us lead to believe that you acted against Paulo out of pure bad form and malice."

"I wanted to protect Aria. Save her from all of the pain that night had caused her. I wanted to take that pain upon myself and rid her of it," he said fiercely. "At the same time, I wanted to make Paulo suffer for hurting her. Make him ever forget he had even seen her. He didn't deserve to even know her let alone remember her."

"And why is that?" asked Harry.

Aria knew in that moment this was it. No turning back now.

Lucius breathed in a big breath before he spoke, as if ready to address the entire population of Earth. The most genuine smile appeared on his face then, and as Aria looked lovingly at him and then turned her eyes towards the crowd of officials above, she saw all of them stare in disbelief clearly never seeing the sight of a smile on Lucius Malfoy's face before.

"Because I love her with all of my heart and soul. This woman next to me," he said as he looked up at her from where he sat, "this woman here standing before you is my reason for existing. From the moment I first met her, from the moment I felt her in trouble that fateful night I knew then that what we shared was beyond anything I had ever known…and what we have is more than any of you will ever know. It's been prophesized."

Aria had tears in her eyes as she looked on at the man she adored, declaring his love for her in front of all of these important people of the Wizarding World. Their love was finally revealed, and she instantly felt the weight of their secret lift off of her shoulders. She was so proud to be his in that moment, she had never loved him more.

The crowd was simply buzzing by this point. Harry had a smile on his face, as he knew this was the moment the trial would turn in Lucius' favor. All of the reporters wrote furiously, and there was the brightest glint in Rita Skeeter's eyes, as if she had just won the story jackpot of the century. Narcissa looked as if steam was practically pouring out of her ears; Draco simply was looking down at his feet. She then saw the Minister for Magic stand up from where he sat, his facial expression was pure shock, he raised up his hand to silence the room, to which everyone immediately complied.

"Mr. Malfoy, you said prophesized? What do you mean by this? Did you gain access to the Hall of Prophesies?"

"No Minister. There is a book at my ancestral Manor. In a section of the library I never thought or had the desire to look in before. The section on love. When touched by our hands the book revealed to us the truth of our feelings. The book showed an ancient image of two lovers and script in Latin. The image was of us, I know it to be true." Lucius then proceeded to recite the ancient text from the book in Latin and then translated it to English. After he finished Aria cut back into the conversation.

"There's more," she said, knowing she was about to reveal that she had snuck into the Chamber of Love in the Department of Mysteries and broken probably dozens of rules. She would leave out the bit about James. She didn't want to get him into any trouble; she had caused enough for him as it was. However, she needed to prove to the Ministry the extent of their love; she had to try everything in her power to make sure Lucius got off free.

"I snuck down to the Department of Mysteries, as I was looking for more answers about us," she began. "I don't know how, but I was granted access to the Chamber of Love…the door pulled me in like a magnet and just opened for me…" she was immediately cut off by the Minister for Magic's blubbering and stuttering. He was clearly dumbfounded and shocked, as well as the whole room. Everyone seemed to be staring at her now as if she was some form of deity.

"The door opened for you?! No one has been able to get into that room in decades…centuries!" spluttered the Minister.

"Yes Sir, I know, but the door simply opened for me. What I experienced in that Chamber was life changing. It showed me more than I could have ever imagined about our love."

Aria then explained to the room what she had told Harry and Hermione. How the potion had shown her the truth of their love. About the revelation that her and Lucius were both Veelas. That their Veela blood that coursed through their veins combined with their strong connection meant that they were soulmates throughout time. How their love was so rare that they were considered to be the only soulmates who would find each other in many different lifetimes. She also explained the examples, without private details or course, of when their power grew, and their hair and skin glowed brightly to further prove her point. When she was done, the room was so silent you could hear a pin drop.

The Minister for Magic looked at Aria and Lucius as if he himself was seeing a revelation of the Universe. "I know that myth…about the first soulmates of the world…but that's what I thought it was…simply a myth…"

"I thought so too Sir, but I can tell you now for certain that it's not a myth. See?" Without thinking Aria pulled back out her wand and pointed it at her chest, the crowd gasped, not sure what she was doing, but Lucius knew, and he smiled up at her.

"Lumos Interius," she said, as the spell instantly made the center of her chest glow brightly. She pointed the wand at Lucius' chest and uttered the same spell. The same spell they had used that glorious night at the Standing Stones in Scotland. His chest now glowed brightly too, but then she slowly kneeled in front of him where he sat in the chair and clasped his tied-up hands in her own rubbing her thumbs over the back of his hands. She then leaned in and kissed him tenderly and passionately.

The Minister for Magic was too entranced to put a stop to this show and tell and so he simply watched in amazement as Aria's kiss caused the glow in each of their chests to expand and pulsate out to cover each of their bodies and their hair in glowing white light. More gasps of shock, delight and awe echoed throughout the room as the magic Aria had cast showed the onlookers of their true connection.

After a bit and after Aria had stood back up to stand again, Harry Potter spoke back up again.

"Thank you for being so open and honest with us Miss De La Cour," he said kindly. "What you have showed us today is something rare and something that our community should be honored to have seen in their lifetime. Not only is your connection you speak of one of our greatest myths and legends now proven to be true, but you have also shown us today what pure love looks like. It is always special when true love shows what it can do; I know that firsthand," the other witches and wizards around Harry nodded to themselves as they remembered the heroic wizard's famous parents, who sacrificed themselves for him.

"And while we have experienced true love in different ways, yours and Lucius' love is just as legitimate," continued Harry. "Knowing that you two are the Veela soulmates throughout time, who will always try to find each other in every life, is inspiring and powerful to say the least. Therefore, I would ask the Ministry officials to see that what Lucius did, he did out of love, a love he could never resist or try and go against. In my mind he acted just as he should have; out of fierce loyalty and protection. And while he should have let the Ministry taken Paulo into their own hands instead of inflicting justice himself, I do not think he should be sent to Azkaban simply for acting out of the true love his soul felt for the woman next to him."

Aria smiled and happy tears ran down her face at Harry's noble speech. Even Lucius himself had tears beginning to fill his eyes, as he realized the young man he had once hated and detested, was now the one who was sticking up for him. Lucius knew Harry must have been able to truly see the pure soul connection between himself and Aria, and that their love was strong enough to show people that they deserved to be together.

What happened next was amazing. Hermione stood up then, smiled down at Aria, and stated loudly and clearly into the room, "I agree with Harry."

Then every few seconds another Ministry Official Witch or Wizard would also stand up and would state that they agreed with Harry. Finally, mostly every official was standing in support of Lucius being set free. Only a few wizards remain seated, including of course Narcissa and Draco, although they weren't the ones making the final judgement anyways. The Minister for Magic looked around the room in awe and then back at the couple below him, who were both still slightly glowing from the magic of the spell Aria had cast.

"I can see the true connection you two have and it is something rather special to behold. I must admit, I never thought of Lucius Malfoy himself being capable of this type of love and connection with anyone, but as you two have shown, it has been written in the stars for you two throughout the centuries and I am honored to have witnessed such a momentous occasion in the Wizarding World. And yes, while I agree with Harry on his point that what Lucius did, he did out of love and protection, I also agree with Harry on his other point that he should have used a simple stunning spell on Paulo and let us handle the rest of his punishment. Therefore…" the Minister paused a beat as he took in a deep breath, ready to give his final verdict.

Everyone in the room was holding their breath. Aria, Lucius, the press reporters who were so enthralled with the turn of events, it looked like some of their heads would explode in anticipation, all of their quills were at the ready.

"Therefore," continued the Minister, "Lucius Malfoy will be set free and will not be sent to Azkaban Prison."

The whole room seemed to explode with emotion at once, as everyone started buzzing and talking and standing up. Narcissa was practically screaming with rage at the unfairness of it, clearly horribly petrified that her evil plan didn't go off as hoped. When the Minister declared Lucius free, his hands were immediately unbound and he stood up and immediately went over to Aria, picked her up in his arms and twirled her around as he kissed her hard and long in front of the whole room. He could taste her tears of happiness on her lips.

"EVERYONE PLEASE QUIET!" the Minister bellowed trying to get everyone's attention back on him. He wasn't finished with his verdict. "But…Mr. Malfoy must be punished, and therefore I am immediately terminating his position at the Ministry of Magic, effective immediately."

"But Minister!" Aria began to protest, until she heard Lucius to her other side say "Shhh my love, it's okay."

She looked over at him concerned, but he seemed completely content and at ease. He then said so quietly only she could here him, "I never liked working here anyways…until I met you of course. I was only working here in the years after the War to make my way back into peoples' good graces and to take my mind off my misery. Besides, you know I have plenty of other business dealings and philanthropies. If this is the worst of my punishment, we should be thankful and blessed."

Aria nodded her head in acceptance. If Lucius was fine, then so was she.

When the Minister saw that Aria and Lucius had nothing more to say, he excused the court.

"This session, the case against Lucius Malfoy, is now over and complete. The members of the Ministry may now take their leave, as well as the press and any others," said the Minister. He then turned one more time to Lucius. "Mr. Malfoy, may I suggest you go live out the rest of your life in happiness and peace," he said with a smirk.

Lucius Malfoy smirked back, but then instantly turned back to Aria, picked her up again and spun her around a few times. She had never seen him so giddy and happy, and she loved it so much. They both laughed together, their happiness radiating around them again, as their bodies still glowed with the magic and their love. As Lucius spun Aria around, she caught a few times Narcissa's face in the stands. Her pale blue eyes pierced into Aria's soul, like a molten hot poker, until the older woman decided to get up and storm out of the courtroom. It appeared Draco had left a bit before, leaving his mother on her own. Aria wondered if Draco had left out of guilt and remorse or simply lost interest when he realized his plan to send his father off to Azkaban wasn't going to pan out anymore. Aria thought all of this in only a few seconds however, because her mind was mainly focused on how happy and relieved, she was that her Lucius was free!

When Lucius had finally put her down, he put his hands on either side of her face and wiped away her happy tears with the pads of his thumbs.

"Shall we go home?" he asked, his beautiful grey eyes pouring into her soul.

"Yes, home." She said

He held her in close to his body and apparated them immediately back to their Manor.


Lucius had apparated them back to the Manor steadily but had only managed to land them outside the front gates. He was clearly exhausted, and his powers and magic had been bound while he was in the prison for a night, and so his magic was weaker than normal. Being such a powerful and pure-blooded Wizard however, he knew he would get his strength and powers back after a good night's rest. But he had to reunite physically with his love first.

"I'm sorry my love, I only had the strength to get us to the gates and not actually inside…" he said slightly ashamed.

Aria would hear none of it and reassured him as she grabbed his hand strongly. "My love don't worry. You have had a very long two days….I don't mind walking a bit either and getting some fresh air.."

And so, the luminous couple walked the long walk up the drive to the Manor, breathing in the fresh countryside air and smiling at their newfound freedom, not only the freedom of Lucius not going to Azkaban but of their love finally being known to everyone. They no longer had to hide.

"I've made a decision Lucius, I mean if you'll have me of course…but I am moving out of my flat officially. I want to live here with you, and be together always," she said as she looked over at her lover, the fading sunlight shining off of his platinum hair.

He looked back at her and his face lit up with so much happiness, "Of course I'll have you! I have been wanting this from the moment I met you. There have been so many times, even early on, I just wanted to make you get rid of your flat and move in with me. I want you always by my side."

Aria smiled in pleasure. "Of course, you must put the deed to the Manor back in your name. I know you only put my name on it when you thought you would be leaving me forever, but I want you to take it back now that you are home- "

"Shhhhh," Lucius said as he put his finger up to her lips to quiet her. "We can discuss this all tomorrow but for now, I just want you…to be reunited with you…" he said, his voice turning husky and alluring.

They had reached the large front doors, and they immediately opened at Lucius touch, as if welcoming him back home. The couple's gazes of each other never faltered and they had barely made it inside before they started going at each other like their lives depended on it. Lucius had been tired before, but the instant their lips met, and they were back in the comfort of the Manor, he had a renewed energy like never before. They were still only in the grand entry way in front of the grand staircase but between heavy kisses, they began ripping each other's clothes off. They wouldn't make it to the bedroom, there was no stopping their passion now.

Lucius lips seemed to find every inch of Aria's body that evening. Each piece of clothing he ripped off of her, he would feast upon her exposed flesh, kissing every part of her over and over. Her skin rippled with gooseflesh at the feeling of his heavy breath and soft lips over her naked skin. Glowing gold light from the setting sun poured into the grand entry way from the high up windows near the ceiling and bathed the naked lovers in a magical light that made their skin and hair gleam brightly.

Lucius' cock was standing to attention; he had been thinking about nothing but Aria and moments like these the past day and a half, as he had truly thought he would never have her like this again. Aria herself was just as ready, already wet with anticipation. She needed the reassurance that Lucius really was back at the Manor with her and that it wasn't a dream.

And so Lucius lowered them both to the ground, luckily a large rug graced the floor of the entry way, so that they wouldn't have to lay on cold marble.

"I need you now Aria," he said as he hovered over her and looked into her soul.

"Yes, I need you now too Lucius," she said as she reached her left hand up to grasp the back of his neck, her fingers intertwining in his long blond hair. "Make me know that you are here with me now and that you are real."

Without saying another word, Lucius slowly entered her. They both moaned loudly into the grand entry way, their moans echoing off of the large space they occupied. He moved within her so slowly, she could feel every inch of him. His length never seemed to end, but finally he was all the way in her, and she felt as if she was truly complete. He was the perfect and only key that fit. They were made for each other.

He slid slowly out, just as slowly as he went in, until the head of his cock was all that was left inside of her and just as she was about to moan at the feeling of his absence, he plunged back in, this time more firmly and powerfully. Her mouth opened in a silent scream of pleasure and their eyes remain locked, not once blinking.

Lucius kept up this pace a while, their eyes still locked, but then he began to lean his head forward so he could kiss her neck, her breasts, everywhere he could reach as he slid in and out of her, more powerfully each time, causing her to mewl and moan in bliss. He then kissed the spot between her neck and her ear, and he began whispering into her ear in a husky voice all that he felt for her.

"You are everything to me. Do you even comprehend how much you mean to me? You are my savior, my goddess my sun," he said as he began pounding more quickly into her. She began moaning louder as his romantic words caused a more intense tingling to begin forming in her center. Her inside walls began to clench around him. He continued, "I live only for you and I will give you everything that I am."

"Lucius," she breathed out in a shaky voice as her pussy began feeling more and more tight around him. She was close.

"Yes, my love…it is all for you. There is no me without you now,"

"Lucius," she said again, but louder, and he knew she was going to come any moment.

"Yes, Aria. Come for me. It gives me so much life. Come for me now," he demanded.

Of course, Aria loved when Lucius' demanding and dominating side came out during their love making and so with one last thrust from his large member, she exploded in bliss all over him. She screamed out into the room, chanting "Yes" and "Dear God" over and over again. It was one of her most intense orgasms ever. From being so worried about him and thinking she would never know this feeling again, her mind became fuzzy at the pleasure she now felt.

"Good girl," he moaned into her ear as he began pounding faster and faster now. He was going so fast it almost felt inhuman, and she knew that he had desperately needed this. To reclaim her body as his, and to feel their connection as one again. Aria's orgasm still raged through her and seemed to never end, as his glorious pounding brought her even more pleasure. But she knew he wanted to and needed to come now.

"Now I need you to come for me my love. Please. I need you to so badly," she whispered back into his ear. She knew her words would drive him over the edge. "Come for me my love…come."

His moaning became more and more loud and his breath more and more hitched and finally with a deep scream out into the room of power and triumph he poured his shot into her, warm and comforting, and Aria practically came again at the feeling of being so full.

After a time, he rolled off of her and to the side and just laid there in bliss as he closed his eyes. Aria looked over at her love and could see that his bout of energy was spent, and his exhaustion was back. They would eventually have to get up and go into an actual bed, but for now neither of them could muster the energy to move; nor did they want to.

"Welcome home my love," she said as she rolled over to her side and smiled up at him.

He looked at her with such adoration and replied back, "Our home. Forever."
