CHAPTER 8
When morning came Sarah was so comfortable and warm. She snuggled into the warmth surrounding her. Jareth was awake watching her snuggle into his arms and neck. She made cute little squeaky noises. He loved how she felt against his body. She molded against him perfectly. Not too big or too small. She had her leg wrapped around his leg with her knee between his legs. Her hand was on his chest and her head rested against his shoulder. He could feel her breath on his neck and skin. He was truly content in his soul for the first time in his 527 years. He could say he wanted for nothing. She finally made him happy.
She stirred, making a little squeaky noise. She sat up all sleepy eyed and looked into his eyes and said, "Good morning, my loving king." He smiled at her and moved some of her wild dark locks away from her face.
He said softly, "Good morning, my most loveliest of creatures." She leaned in and kissed his mouth. Jareth buried both of his hands in her hair thoroughly taking advantage of the sweetest mouth he ever tasted. He broke the kiss and rolled her on her back and entered her. She moaned out loud in such a sexy way, arching her back into him. He closed his eyes at the sensation of how she made him feel when he connected with her. It overwhelmed his senses. Sex has never felt like this before and he had had a lot of it. It was all gratification and nothing else. This was the most euphoric feeling ever.
He began slowly thrusting his hips grinding his pelvis into her clitoris. He started to speed up and the rush of feeling of his body and the feeling of her emotions melding with his own were driving him into sexual stimulation like he never felt before. Everything had intensified. The only thing he could compare it to was like running really fast and jumping off a cliff when changing into his owl form. It was exhilarating.
Sarah said, "Faster, harder. I can feel you, Jareth. I love how we feel and taste together."
He started pounding her tight little pussy. He felt her relax and constrict the muscles as he moved; it was like she was milking him. He went wild and started kissing, licking, biting and sucking her skin. She tasted like ambrosia. He couldn't get enough.
They both detonated like dynamite at the same time. Like an explosion of the senses. He kept cumming, pulsing and squirting over and over. He felt her too. Sarah felt like she was having a spasm orgasm. She had masterbated before but never felt anything like this before until last night, but this time she sensed his ejaculation and her own it was unbelievable. They cling to each other's bodies wrapped around each other panting, sweating and gripping tightly.
She said, "I've never felt like this before. I'm floating."
He whispered, "I know, my love. Me too."
They were quietly just coming down together. He rolled her on top of his body. She laid her head on his chest brushing her fingers through his damp hair massaging his scalp. He was so relaxed.
There was a knock on the door and Jareth just wanted to ignore it. It rapped again. Sarah groaned. He kissed her head and rolled her to the side and sat up in bed. He magically cleaned himself and fully dressed himself. He rose to go answer the door..
He opened the door and found his advisor Malichi standing there. Jareth said, "What is it?"
Malachi said, "The Fairy King is here to see you about an important matter."
Jareth said, "Isn't he aware what time it is in the morning?"
Malachi said, "I don't think he cares, sire, and he never has when he wants what he wants." Jareth nodded and was angry at being disturbed at 7 am, when he was so content to hold his Sarah.
He said, "I'll be down in the informal throne room. I must tell Sarah where I'll be. She will be my betrothed before the end of this day. I hope." Malachi's eyes widened. He couldn't believe Jareth was going to finally take a mate. His father had been hounding him for the last century to settle down.
Malachi said, "But, sire, she's human."
Jareth smiled and chuckled, "She's not anymore. Something wonderful has happened. I'll discuss it later."
Malachi said, "Yes sire, I'll be there too with the Fairy King, if you like, when you greet him?" Jareth nodded. Jareth shut the door and walked back into the room. Sarah was nowhere to be seen. A second later she walked out of the bathroom in his bathrobe.
He smiled and said, "I like how you look in my clothes." She shyly smiled at him.
Sarah said, "Jareth , who was that at the door?"
He huffed and said, "My advisor, Malachi. The fairy King is down in the informal throne room waiting for me. I have no idea what the hell he wants at 7 am, but I'll be back. Go bathe and put on a pretty dress in your room, if you want to, precious."
Her smile faded and she asked, "Whose clothes are in my room? I thought it was someone else's room I was sharing or something?"
Jareth chuckled and said, "No my love, those were all made for you and have been waiting for you to wear them for ten years." She was surprised that he went to such an expense and thoughtfulness to have done all that. He kept them for her all these years. It showed her his hope for her to come back to him.
She had tears in her eyes and ran into his arms. She said, "Oh Jareth you waited so long. I'm so sorry."
He said, patting and kissing her head, "I'm not sorry for waiting. It's better this way. You're old enough and more beautiful than ever. I'll be back soon, precious. I need to ask you something important when I return." He kissed her and left for the throne room.
Jareth entered the throne room and sat on his throne grabbing his riding crop and lounging back tapping it on his boot. He said, "What can I do for you, Darius?"
King Darius said, "I need you to betroth my daughter, Princess Emiline."
Jareth said, "I told you before, no. I can't believe you woke me out of bed for something I already gave an answer to."
Darius said, "But she has her heart set on you."
Jareth said, "Wrong, Darius, she has her heart set on my throne. There is no heart in your spoiled child. I'm not interested. Besides, I have a betrothed and will be presenting her to my father and mother today."
Darius asked, "Do you mean that human girl you have been seen with?"
Jareth said, "Ah, I see your spies have been working hard to discover my actions. Yes, but she's not human."
Darius said, "What is she then? My reports say she's a human."
Jareth said, "I will not discuss this with you. My answer is no and leave me be."
Darius said, "She's driving me insane with her manipulation and pressing me to secure your betrothal. What am I to do with her? She won't take no for an answer from anyone. It's like an obsession."
Jareth said, "Tell her I'm betrothed to someone else and to find another pawn in her political scheming."
Darius said, "I'll try, but she is going to explode over this. She has been focused on you for 30 years now."
Jareth said, "I know and now she'll have to move on. Good luck, Darius."
Darius said, "Thank you Jareth. Be happy in your betrothal. Few of us ever are these days." Jareth nodded and Darius transported out with a popping noise.
Jareth went back to his room and Sarah was gone. He went to the adjoining door to the Queen's rooms and entered hearing soft singing coming from the bathroom. She was singing acapella.

"She Moved Through The Fair"
by Loreena McKennitt
"My love said to me
"My mother won't mind
And me father won't slight you
For your lack of kind
Then she stepped away from me
And this she did say
"It will not be long, love
Till our wedding day
She stepped away from me
And she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her
Move here and move there
She went her way homeward
With one star awake
As the swans in the evening
Move over the lake
The people were saying
No two e'er were wed
But one has a sorrow
That never was said
And she smiled as she passed me
With her goods and her gear
And that was the last
That I saw of my dear
I dreamed it last night
That my true love came in
So softly she entered
Her feet made no din
She came close beside me
And this she did say
"It will not be long, my love
Till our wedding day"
—--
The sound resonated acoustically through the whole room. It was beautiful, he thought. She was soaking in her bath. He vanished his clothing and stepped down into the warm soothing pool. She squeaked in surprise when he entered the water and took her in his arms. He grinned at her and kissed her deeply.
He whispered, "I told you I was coming back. I missed you already, my beautiful girl. I need to ask you if you'll be my betrothed, Sarah. I love you, my most precious thing."
Sarah thought for a minute what betrothal means. She asked, "Is that like a girlfriend?"
Jareth chuckled, "More like a fiancēe in your world. There are actual contracts to sign in my world because it's with me and I'm royalty. It's much more complicated than you know. Will you? I promise to devote myself to only you and never any other." His hands were moving over her soft skin in the water. He wrapped her leg around his hip and slid inside her and started kissing her neck. All he could think was the fear of rejection and begged in his mind, 'Please say yes, Sarah.' He chanted it over and over in his head.
Sarah thought, 'Oh God he feels so good.' She said out loud, "Yes, Jareth, I'll never love another. Only you." Magic swirled around them as he took her in the water against the side wall. He buried himself in her. His fear dissolved and his thrusting was sliding smoothly and well lubricated in the water with bath oil in it. They both came hard and held on to each other. Her legs were wrapped around his hips and her arms were wrapped around his shoulders. She rested her head on his shoulders.
When they came out of the bathroom wrapped in towels. Jareth said, "We need to go see my father and mother, the High King and Queen. I need to tell them of our betrothal and find out why you transformed on your own into a fae. Precious, have you looked in the mirror this morning? You're completely fae now, you know? I'm not familiar with your eye markings though. Only royalty has markings." She stepped to look in the standing full length mirror. She was surprised. Her pointed ears, her eyes were slightly bigger, her brows were slanted and they had a green and blue pattern she did not recognize. Her breasts were firmer and her body was sleek and toned, but it always was. It was just smoother. Her pubic hair and body hair was gone. Peculiar how she didn't notice these things washing in the bath.
Sarah looked at Jareth, "What the hell is going on? Why didn't I notice or feel the changes, especially my body hair disappearing?"
Jareth said, "I don't know, let's get dressed so I can present you to my parents. I'll send a missive of my betrothal needing to be witnessed by my parents, while we dress. He caressed her cheek and kissed her before leaving through the adjoining door.
Sarah put on her panties and bra. She opened the armoire and selected a teal green velvet and silk dress of various shades. It had long tight sleeves, off the shoulder. It had silver embroidery all throughout it, even the trim. When she put it on, it fastened itself down her back. She thought, 'Magic is so cool.' She found a pair of black suede mid heel lace up boots. As soon as she untied the laces and put them on, the laces tied themselves. The clothes were all enchanted. She brushed out her hair and let it dry naturally. She found a set of teal jewelry set in silver in a box on top of the dresser next to her gold. She put it on. She found her clothes and gun and hair combs in a Victorian chair next to the dresser. She had a little pocket in the folds of her dress on each side. She put her gun in one pocket and her coin bag with more gold in it on the other side pocket. She slipped her knife and sheath into her boot top. The laces adjusted. She opened the small top drawer on the dresser and found makeup. She put on minimal makeup with liquid eyeliner in black/brown. She fluffed her hair upside down to dry it faster. There were perfume bottles in a drawer. She sniffled each one and liked a vanilla lavender one. She sprayed some on.
