Candle in the window
I really like Dragon knights but I'm never seen a Lykouleon and Kai-Stern coupling before. I love Lykouleon and Raseleane don't get me wrong. I just think Lykouleon and Kai-Stern should have a chance to explore a few 'avenues' hee hee hee.
Chapter 3
"My Lord Lykouleon?" Alfeegi called into the lord's private study. "I need to ask you about..." The door creaked open and a gust of cool wind rushed through the door. "That's funny Ruwalk said he was in here."
He frowned looking at the some what scattered papers on the large desk in the focal point of the room. the white dragon officer straightened a few things and put paper weights of them to make sure they didn't get scattered again. The balcony door was open and the draps were being tossed by a playful breeze.
There was a couch on this balcony that faced the gardens, one of the lord's favorite places to walk in the afternoons. Birds scittered and fluttered about, picking at a bowl of cherries sitting on the ornate railing.
"My lord?" The strawberry blond secretary found his lord leaning against that same railing.
"Alfeegi?" He put his hands down from his chin. "What is it?"
"Did you want those cherries?" crystaline copper eyes a light with green hues watched the lovely feathered animals devouring the fruits maddly. Some of their beaks were already stained with the red juices.
"No." the blond smiled. "I don't really like cherries."
"I remember when you loved cherries." Alfeegi brushed a strawberry blond lock behind his ear.
"I guess I don't mind the taste, their sweet and firm but it's the pits and stems that bother me."
"Pits?"
"I feel bad wasting them. The animals at least, not even knowing...keep a cycle of life that we all hope to prosper from, on going."
"Pits." the white dragon officer repeated. the dragon lord sighed.
"Did you need something?" Lykouleon asked, straightening.
"Oh yes." he took forms from under his arm. "I need you to reveiw these for approval and..." soft green eyes looked into crystal copper pools. "Well, maybe the rest can wait till tomorrow." he handed the smaller stack to his lord and turned to leave.
"You won't stay and make sure I work?" Lykouleon winked playfully.
"I'll be back first thing in the morning with another stack of those and two more stacks of these." The white dragon officer waved the ream of documents. "Don't think you're getting off easy."
"Uh, wait!" the blond tripped over the couch, "Oh, paper work." he felt a head ache coming on.
"Lord Lykouleon?" Ruwalk crained his head around the door. "Oh," he rushed over to help his lord pick up the scattered white leaves. "I wondered if everything was alright, I haven't seen that look on Alfeegi's face since Kai-Stern acctually filled paperwork out correctly."
"Thanks," Lykouleon straightened the stack and brought them inside. "Was he that happy?"
"I guess," the yellow dragon officer glanced at the door, "if that's happy."
"Let's see," the lord sat at the huge desk and looked over some of the pages, "weapons, supplies, and maintainence. Usual stuff."
"It seems like a negetive cycle sometimes." the brown haired officer looked at some of the other papers. "We put in but not much comes back to us."
"A cycle..." green eyes seemed to stare out into nothing. "This is all a part of a cycle, isn't it?"
"Well, in the grand sceme of things," Ruwalk considered his words, "Yes. Definately. Although how it all started..." he shrugged.
"Is this my role in the cycle?" Lykouleon stood and looked out the window. "I wonder sometimes."
"So," brown eyes closed as he nodded understanding "this is why...you don't have a mountain of paper work."
"Huh?"
"What's really on your mind?" the yellow dragon officer offered a friendly ear. "You can tell me." The dragon lord leaned an arm against the window.
"Do you ever wonder sometimes...if you missed something in your life that made you go down one path but if you could have done something that changed everything..." he sighed and shook his head. "I'm not making any sense am I? Never mind."
"No," his dark brown hair flicked tails of red as he shook his head. "I think I understand." he came closer, looking at the reflection of his lord in the glass. "You want to know if something might have been different, maybe better if you had done things differently." Green eyes looked at the reflection of brown. "The question is..." the yellow dragon officer kept his gaze steady looking for the answer in his lord's eyes. "Are you unhappy?" Lykouleon straightened and with mask of a smile he made a grand gesture with both arms.
"I have everything a king could ask for." He told his friend. "A beautiful and loving queen, loyal subjects and all my officers are my friends," he shrugged. "what else could I..."
"But," Ruwalk tried to interject.
"How could I ask for something more? I think the gods would punish me if I dared to ask for something..."
"What do you want, my lord." the yellow dragon officer broke in.
"I..." the blond's eyes diverted and his shoulder's slumped, only slightly. "What I..."Green eyes looked at him wanting answers Ruwalk couldn't give. It's best to be alone to think about yourself.
"Don't think about it." the brown haired dragon officer turned to the door. "Just let the answer come to you. I'm avalible anytime you need to talk, okay?"
Lips parted to speak, to stop him, to say anything but not even a breath escaped. When the dragon lord was alone he hugged himself, wondering if his feelings were so trasparent. He did want something more or maybe, less depending on your prospective. He felt like there was and empty hole in his chest waiting to be filled. What was it, though, that he was looking for to fill that gap? Was the answer as simple as the question? What do you want?
