CHAPTER 7

As she was walking out the door, she saw Jareth standing there. She said a little inquisitive, "Whatcha doing here in the dark, Goblin King? Did you follow me tonight?"

Jareth reached out and took her hand and said, "Yes after I had come to your room to say goodnight and found you left and was singing at the pub. I thought I would listen in and walk you back to the castle. You have a beautiful voice, by the way."

Sarah said, "That's very nice of you and thank you."

Jareth asked a bit confused, "You're not mad at me from earlier are you? I was embarrassed that she had the audacity to say something so private from three months ago, right at you deliberately, to make you jealous of her. It was disrespectful to both of us. I'm so sorry." Sarah was surprised that he just said he hadn't had sex in three months. Who was she to judge, because she was still a virgin at twenty five years old. She just didn't make the time with her academic obsessions of trying to find out about him and his people and how they affected humankind 5,000 years ago.

Sarah said softly, "Jareth, it's ok. I just thought… Well, it doesn't matter what I thought. Just forget it ever happened."

Jareth stopped before they got to the castle and he pulled her into the entrance of the Labyrinth instead. He said, "It does matter to me what you think about me as a person. We had such a misconstrued time ten years ago and we both didn't understand what was happening. I thought you knew what I was offering you but I should have known you were too young to understand my feelings at the time. Besides, I should have known you probably thought I was trying to manipulate or decieve you after your run. Sarah, Toby was in his bed as soon as you made that leap of faith. The rest was unnecessary but you wouldn't have known that. I did a lot of thinking about it over the last ten years." He was feeling vulnerable and he didn't like it. She reached her hand up and caressed his chin running her thumb over his lips. Her other hand slid up his arm and down his chest inside his shirt caressing his breast and heart.

She said, "Will you kiss me again, Jareth." He grabbed her quickly and crushed her to his body, molding every inch of her body to him. He backed her into a tree trunk. His tongue was searing her and making her pulse rate go up. It felt so right and so good to both of them. His hand was rubbing her lower back and the other was in her hair cupping her head. He broke the kiss and started kissing her neck and ear.

He whispered, "I never want to stop. I crave you, Sarah. I could get lost in you so very easily and never stop touching you." She was lost in the feeling of his lips on her mouth and skin. She was breathing heavily and he was searing her skin with his teeth and tongue.

Sarah whispered and said, "We need to go inside. I want you. I've never been with anyone before, Jareth." He transported them to his chamber.

They were unaware that they were being observed by unknown eyes in the Labyrinth…

Jareth walked Sarah backwards to the side of his bed, kissing her. She paused him and took off her belt with her gun and put it on the table next to the bed with the combs from her hair. He pushed her back and put his knee between her thighs and bent it to kneel on the bed, laying her gently backwards onto his bed. He broke the kiss and said, "Sarah, I'll be as gentle as I can. Don't be afraid. I'll take care of you."

She wrapped her leg around him and flipped him on his back. He was surprised. She licked his neck and started nibbling on his skin. She was so inexperienced and drove him insane with such a sexy move. She took possession of his mouth devouring him. She clasped his hands interlocking their fingers and she had them pinned on each side of his head. She pulled on his bottom lip until it snapped back. His blood was racing. She ran her nose along his neck breathing heavily.

She said, "You smell intoxicating."

He couldn't stand it any longer and flipped her on her back and released her hands and pulled her shirt over her head and off. He undid her bra and took it off and tossed it in the same direction. His mouth licked and sucked on her nipples while unbuttoning and unzipping her jeans. He thought human clothing was so complicated. His hands were inside her underwear and her jeans running around her hips and cupping her ass pushing her pelvis against his very uncomfortable bulge in his own pants.

He sat up and pulled his shirt off over his own head and hovered, leaning over Sarah with his pendant swing back and forth over her. He was breathing heavily looking into her eyes. He said, "I'm in love with you, Sarah. I have been for a very long time. I thought I lost you forever." He caressed her lips and cheek with his thumbs as he leaned on his elbows. "I couldn't go through that and survive it again."

He started kissing her again and the rest of her clothes and his own vanished. He spread her legs and knees and lay between her thighs resting his pelvis against hers. He said, "You are the most precious thing to me." His hands were setting her skin on fire. His declarations were moving her beyond words.

Her hands were exploring his body gliding over his smooth skin from his shoulders to his buttocks and in his soft hair. She licked the tip of his ear and he let out an animalistic growl. She reached up and started massaging the tips of his ears and his one eye changed from a round pupil to a slit like a cat's eye and he let out a growl.

He said with intense restraining control, "Precious, please, I need you to let me keep control or I may hurt you during your first time." She let go and caressed down his back. She must have stumbled upon a fae erogenous zone. He put his forehead to hers and closed his eyes, reigning back his wild animal side. She deeply took possession of his mouth dancing her tongue with his.

His cock started slipping into her slowly until he hit her hymen. He paused and said softly looking in her eyes, "I'm sorry." He quickly punched through it and sheathed himself completely inside her.

She yelled out, "Ah!" in pain and grasped him with her arms around his shoulders and legs wrapped around his hips. He gave her a few moments to get settled and he started moving slowly thrusting. He felt her hips moving with his own. He sat up on his knees with his knees spread under her spread legs and was watching his bloody cock moving in and out of her perfect tight pussy. He couldn't believe the evidence of her purity was all over his cock. It was a beautiful gift for her to give it to him. No, he would never share her or love another woman. Only her, forever.

Sarah moaned and said, "Jareth, please go faster." He started pumping faster, hooking his hips and circling his pelvis to give her all the pleasure he could. He laid his body back down on top of her and started kissing her again. He felt her muscles flutter on the inside telling him she was close to orgasm. He increased his pace, grasping her hips for leverage.

Suddenly, she screamed his name and her pussy clamped down hard, strangling his cock. It caught him off guard and his ejaculation slammed into him taking his breath away. He came with a shout of her name on his lips. He came so hard he saw white stars explode behind his eyes. His magic reached out and twined around their bodies, but he felt another wild magic join with his. It heightened his awareness of her emotions. He felt her love radiating from her mind and spirit. She didn't say anything but clinched her eyes closed.

She whispered in his ear and kissed his neck, "I love you, Jareth." He forced himself up on his elbows and looked into her beautiful green watery eyes and saw everything he felt in that moment of their magic joining together until now. He had heard of this before but it was so extremely rare among the fae people because they only made political marriages and never stayed monogamous. It was called the "An Cheangail" to his people. When two perfectly matched fae magics combine into one causing a communication link between each other. But, she wasn't fae, or was she somehow?

He said, "I love you dearly, Sarah. There is something you should know, my precious. What we just felt was called the "An Cheangail". It's when two fae join together their magic when having sex. It's like a mental, physical and spiritual connection is formed between a perfectly matched couple. It's extremely rare and I've never heard or met anyone who has done this before."

Sarah said, "But, Jareth, I'm not a fae. I'm a human."

He said, "I don't think you are, or you're changing. I saw healing magic swirling around you while you were singing. It was very subtle and nobody but me noticed. This couldn't occur if you didn't have magic or not be fae. I feel you now, on the inside. Do you feel me now too?" She nodded yes. He pushed her hair back and her ears were pointed.

He said hesitantly, "Don't be alarmed but your ears are pointed." Her hands flew up to her ears and felt the tips and she gasped looking into his eyes.

She asked scared, "Jareth, what is going on with me."

He said softly, "I think you had fae in your family tree and your fae genes were dormant inside you. Now that you are exposed to magic and/or my fae magic, you're turning into a fae."

She said, "I noticed a change in the shape of my ears, eyes and hair after returning from the Labyrinth when I was fifteen years old. It was about three days later but nobody else seemed to notice or say anything. I have always felt like a square peg in a round hole all my life. Like I didn't fit in, until I came here." He caressed her face and kissed her.

He said, "You'll always belong with me, Sarah my love." She started to cry. He held her to him and rolled them into their side. "It's ok, my love. I'll always be beside you, to love you and to help you anyway I can."

She sniffled, "Me too." She smiled through her tears. "Jareth is there anyway to find out what's going on with me physically?"

He said, "I'll take you to my father, mother and his healer tomorrow. They will know, if anyone will."

She said, "Ok." He sat up and cleaned their bodies and the bedding with magic. He turned up the flames on the fireplace. They got under the covers and cuddled with her head on his chest.

She yawned and said, "Goodnight, Jareth. I love you."

He held her tighter and said, "I love you too, my precious." He kissed her head and they fell asleep in each other's arms.
