CHAPTER 3. "I hereby pronounce you husband and wife." Said the friar and Jane received an unexpected kiss from Jareth, it was strong and passionate. His kisses betrayed his outward portrayal. "You wouldn't believe how long I've wanted to do that!" Jareth whispered in her ear. As he pulled away he smiled, making Jane blush once again. "Let us celebrate!" shouted Casper filled with glee with this new union. His brother was now married and it would be soon for Casper himself to find a willing bride. "Let's do just that!" said Martin. "Young Jane' is so grown up, its quite extraordinary for two with such a power to be united in this way, their first child would have much the same powers and most like them have no idea of what they are capable of, most are alone to face the dangers of such a powerful magick that they become detached from humanity and hide to confront themselves rather than society." Said the friar. "What do you mean, is she as powerful as Jareth? And the young Joe, are they to make a good union? Will they find peace in this realm? They can learn from Jareth, his magick is the strongest recorded in the scriptures. What would happen if the old wizard finds out?" asked Charming. "We can only wait and see. Jareth won't look into the future this time; it would be too painful to see the loss of his new bride. We cannot ask Jane to look for she would be lost in the portal." Said the friar. "We will have to wait and see, the consequences will be dear but we cannot ask either party to risk such things for the sake of their future." Said Charming, they walked on towards the great hall for the exquisite feast held in honour of the newly weds. "Charming, Friar, the musicians are about to play." Said Casper, he noticed the concerned look on Charming's face but dismissed it. "Young one, we will follow you there!" said the friar and he trotted along the gravel path towards the great dining hall. Charming lagged behind, worried about what Jareth would say and do should he find out the consequences of their actions and wedding.

The celebrations went on for hours and few people went to bed. Jet lag had no meaning to the people in this realm; they had no knowledge of it except for the few that could travel in time. People drank, ate and danced till the break of dawn but only for those that couldn't sleep. Jane and Jareth had decided to get some rest and relaxation around the early hours of the morning. "You will be gentle won't you, only . last time I was with a . man, I was lucky to escape with my life. And that was the foreplay. It seems he was a necrophiliac!" said Jane, Jareth smiled, obviously unaware as to what necrophilia was. "Jareth, necrophilia is a love of having sex with dead bodies. Corpses. He wanted to kill me before having sex with my body." His face dropped to show a look of concern and worry. "I'm so sorry, I didn't know. Are you okay about this? We can postpone this until you're ready. No pressure." Said Jareth "Nah, ah, you, mister, are going to prove how good a husband you will be!" said Jane with a wicked grin. She disappeared into the on suite bathroom to change into a silky, black nightdress. "I say, start as you mean to go on!" said Jareth as he took his gloves, boots, jacket and waistcoat off. There was a small knock on the door. "Come on in, it's not locked!" said Jareth, the smile on his face had faded. "Has Jane' finished in the bathroom?" asked Joe as he sat on the side of the bed. "I have now!" said Jane and she stepped out the bathroom door and walked towards the bed. The sight of a true beauty, Jane in a silky black nightdress, a sexy one at that caused both Joe's and Jareth's jaws to drop. Joe stood up and walked towards her. "Wow, and I mean it!" he said, he paused for a few moments before speaking again. "I just came to say Goodnight, and . have fun! I'm guessing you don't need to worry about these!" as he held out a tiny silver casing. All three knew what he was holding up but Jareth didn't say a word, he'd been to earth many times but only came across these things on the TV late at night when he'd visited Dursey and Martin when the children were very small. "Joe, you actually brought one with you? You boys really do have one track minds, I can't believe you!" said Jane and playfully punched him on the arm. "Ow, Jane, you know it's not nice to punch, especially since you're much stronger than me." Said Joe, acting on that Jane kissed him on the cheek. "Yuck, you're my sister!" "Go on, me and Jareth are about to go to bed!" said Jane pushing him out the door before hugging him tightly. "I wonder why! Just remember it's supposed to hurt the first time you." said Joe, he smiled before finishing the sentence but she cut in before he could say the last word. "Goodnight! Little brother, see you in the morning." Said Jane as she closed the door and locked it. "So. I guess. since you've already bewitched me by your beauty, I'm already under your spell. I couldn't tear my eyes away from you. even if I wanted!" said Jareth. "And yet, I have still to be seduced!" said Jane as she walked towards the bed. She knelt on the side of the bed and crawled so that she covered Jareth's torso. "Are you a submissive or dominatrix, that's what I'd like to know." Said Jareth. "You'll just have to find out for yourself, won't you?" she said, and with that Jareth rolled her over so that he was on top instead. They began to kiss and cuddle before heading towards that blissful state of making out. But it wouldn't last long before something else interrupted their wedding night. Bells rang and doors slammed shut downstairs. "What's going on?" asked Jane, she had a strange feeling in her stomach. "Jane', we have to go downstairs, put this over your nightdress, to keep you warm in case we need to go out side." Said Jareth and they walked downstairs. The music had stopped and the food thrown over the floor, most the wine that hadn't been drunk was in pools over the marble flooring. And every one had left the house. "Jareth, Jane', there seems to have been a mistake in the scriptures, Pegasus and a female unicorn have travelled here to talk with you both. They are mates as are you." Said Jeffery. "We can talk to the animals? I always felt animals watching me but I didn't know they could speak. I knew something had to be up." Said Jane. Something said this was the strange feeling she had. "We can talk to the animals, but most Fae can, it's a way we use to look after the realm, and it's inhabitants." Said Jareth. He led her down the cold stone steps to the front lawns where the both creatures awaited their arrival. "How do we speak to them?" asked Jane, instantly the female spoke to her, in her tongue. "We are united, as are you. We ask that for your protection we might help you in anyway, shape or form. Jareth and Jane' we are connected with you for a special purpose. For two who are so strong, as you, we are too. Need each other's strength to survive. So as powerful beings we all need support and safety. Please... May we be of any service to you?" asked the female. "Jareth, if they are as strong as we are, what use is it to have them around for house duties? Mom said herself this society depends on class. We cannot class these two! We shall keep them around as friends. We can all benefit from that and we would only be happy if it was that way. I could not bare for them to be any less." Said Jane. "The Lady knows when her hearts calling out." Said the other. "So be it, this. shall be your wedding present! You of course need a friend in this realm, a female friend." Said Jareth. "Feel free to change to your human form. If you have any luggage please let Jeffery take that to your rooms for you." "There's so much for me to know about this realm, I would like some lessons Jareth," said Jane. She smiled at him, knowing he'd get dirty thoughts but she didn't say another word. The unicorn followed Jane into the house after Jareth carried Jane over the gravel path. "So, this is going to sound foolish but, what's it like changing from animal to human form? I never knew we could. But I am only learning so." she wondered what animal form she had. "Unicorns are so beautiful, I always wanted to meet one as a young girl." Said Dursey. She had so many things to say but didn't quite know how to ask. "Mom, I think you should go to bed, it's awfully late and I'm sure there's plenty of things you'd want to do in the morning." Said Jane. "You're right, I'll say goodnight to everyone now and then retire to bed." Said Dursey. She kissed her daughter on the forehead and stroked the unicorn lightly before leaving the hallway. "So. what name should I call you by, only I don't think its appropriate for me to call you Uni is it? What name do you go by in your human form?" asked Jane, she felt so rude but needed to know the mare's name. "I go by . Ivy in my human form, I was born in ivy patch and have been told I own the darkest Emerald green eyes in this part of the Underground. My mate, Blake calls me by my childhood name, Baby." Said the mare. "And I shall call you Ivy too, I'm sure you're very beautiful in you're human form. I always found Ivy quite striking to the eye when on earth. I guess it should hold me in awe in the . Underground is it?" said Jane. "Yes, we call it the Underground. I would like us to be good friends, I can tell we have a lot to learn about each other." Said Ivy. She stopped a moment when Jane left the room, before following she changed to her human form.
