New Mornings

I have been reading the mahwa Remarried Empress so I wrote this. Enjoy!

Morning was slow coming and surprisingly dark when Navier awoke from a deep slumber. Rain pattered outside the half-drawn curtains and the empress moved her hair out of the way to notice that, for once, her husband was still on the marital bed, fast asleep.

Redness crept unto her face as she noticed a couple of things quite suddenly. One, Heinrey's arms were tight around her waist as he slept against her neck. Two, the sheets were a mess she would definitely have to straighten out less she wanted to give her ladies-in-waiting something to tease her about. Three...well...

She was naked, wasn't she?

And Heinrey...

There was no need to have the image of his naked body in that fountain pop into her head anymore when she had the Emperor so close and warm next to her.

With Sovieshu, there had never been a moment of such indecency. They had done their expected deed quickly and had gone to their respective rooms afterward without so much as a kind smile. After all, it had all been political.

This, however...

It was true that with Heinrey things were different and Navier had no idea there was so much possibility of enjoyment in the act of coupling, less of all how utterly unhinged she was at certain times.

Looking at Heinrey's sleeping face she swallowed in embarassment. That's right, Navier thought biting her cheek, he had done that with his mouth last night-

Her heartbeat went faster as the memory of Heinrey's handsome face crept into her mind. Despite his 'lack' of experience, Heinrey had been a quick learner, and even a quicker study. She wondered if he had looked up the fact that he could use his mouth and tongue in that way or if he had been told by someone. Knowing him, perhaps both.

...and the way he had done so had been so brazen, rough even.

Navier bit her lip harder. Gods, she had to stop thinking about it or she would never be able to leave this room without her ladies knowing exactly how she spent much of the night.

Heinrey shifted and Navier was reminded just how tightly they were pressed together. "Is my Queen awake?"

They met eyes for a moment and the Emperor's smile was absolutely lovely as he touched at her hair, smoothing it back away from her face. "Good morning, Queen."

Swallowing back the embarassment, Navier attempted to say a 'good morning' back but when her voice caught, her husband only chuckled.

"Ah, I guess we fell asleep last night without getting dressed."

His fingers traveled her bare back and Navier gasped at the touch, unused to such things. But they were a married couple, in their marital bed, so she attempted to steel herself. "I guess so," she replied curtly, to which his smile remained.

"My Queen is so beautiful like this."

Navier couldn't help but huff as he shifted them so that he was more on top. Her hands came up to shield her face and chest, even when she was well aware he had both seen and touched plenty of her before.

Heinrey paid no mind to her shyness as he placed a kiss on her shoulder, and then another to her neck. It made more memories of the night before resurface.

Navier lowered her hands. "We have a lot of work to do today."

But Heinrey was only half listening as his kisses traveled upward along her neck and then chin. "I think it is still early, don't you?"

How was it that it was so easy to melt at his words? Navier thought, closing her eyes.

Her hands went to his chest and the groan he gave her made everything feel a bit warmer.

"We shouldn't...Heinrey."

When those kisses reached her lips, he stopped, meeting her eyes deeply. "If my Queen says we should go work, then we'll go to work. Or..."

The empress took as much time as she possibly could to pretend to think about it. Pretend because his leg was between both of hers and his body was touching her and those eyes looked like the ones from last night when he asked her if he could try something new.

Navier narrowed her eyes and Heinrey twitched with a sly smile as her hands touched lower along his sides. "Only if you do what you did with your mouth last night."

The emperor grinned as he kissed her lips once and then slowly went down her body. "Anything that my Queen desires."

When his muscled shoulders went between her legs, Navier could do nothing more than close her eyes.

I may write more of these two. Please leave a review, thank you!
