Chapter 7: Tender Beginnings

IMPORTANT NOTE: THERE ARE SOME SCENES IN THIS CHAPTER THAT SOME MAY FIND OFFENSIVE. THEY ARE OF MILD SEXUAL NATURE. I WILL PLACE A WARNING NOT BEFORE THE SCENE, IF YOU ARE LEARY WHATSOEVER OR UNDER 18, THEN DO NOT READ!

The warm morning sun slowly began to peer through the window in Sarah's room. Last nights storm had vanished hours ago. Only a few lingering clouds remained. The sunlight slowly crept up Sarah's bed and inched its way to her lovely face. Sarah was still asleep, but Jareth had already awakened.

Sarah was obviously content, she had the softest smile and a gentle glow about her. She was not the only one that was content. Jareth had a beautiful smile gracing his face. He looked down upon Sarah. She looked so peaceful. She had the face of an angel. 'I cannot believe that she asked me to stay. Such trust she has in me. I will never take that for granted.'

The sunlight eventually made its way to Sarah's face. When the light reached her eyes, she began to stir. Slowly she opened her eyes and realized that it was morning. She also realized that someone was holding her. She looked up to see Jareth holding her upper body in his arms. She smiled deeply at him.

"Thank you Jareth for staying with me."

Jareth's eyes sparkled, "I was more than glad to be there for you."

"You know Sarah, those nightmares will eventually disappear. It will be different here with me, I promise. There will be some adjustments for you, but I am sure that you will still be happy here."

Sarah tensed a little, "I am sure that I will. I do miss my family some though. Although I really don't know why I do since they were so mean to me all of those times. They never ever believed me." Sarah then downcast her eyes, "At the end, they even thought I was crazy."

Jareth's expression showed true concern, "Sarah, I am so sorry that you had to go through that. If I could have turned back time I would have. I would have worked harder at convincing you to stay. Then you would not have gone through all of that."

Sarah looked back up to Jareth, "You know its all in the past now. I have grown since then. Back then I don't think I would have accepted you very well, I would have been scared."

Jareth looked shocked, "Why, why do you say that you would have been scared?"

Sarah smiled, "Jareth, I was so young, it would have frightened me to have been in that type of situation at that age. I don't know if I could have handled being in some adult situations if you know what I mean. You know, I honestly did not realize that you liked me that much back then."

Jareth sighed, "I more than liked you, I cared for you very deeply, and it is even more now."

Jareth began to get up from the bed. "My dear Sarah, we need to get ready for the day. I would like for you to join me for some breakfast. I will wait for you in the dining hall. As Jareth stood and stretched, it was Sarah's turn to stare in awe. Jareth stood tall and proud. He stretched his arms and back showing off all of his muscles in his arms, chest and stomach. 'Oh wow, what a body…He is so sculpted, I would love to touch him, oh wait, I was touching him, I was laying against that awesome chest of his! Okay now, get a grip here, I am sooo staring at him!'

Jareth could see Sarah staring at him. He mentally smirked to himself, making sure that she didn't see him watching her watch him. He honestly had not planned on her seeing himself like that, well at least not this soon. But it certainly could not hurt for some temptation. 'Sarah, look all you like, it can all be yours if you will just accept me, take me as yours and give yourself to me in return.'

Jareth began walking back towards his room and past the now shattered door. He glanced down at it, muttered something to himself and went on. Sarah watched him as we walked on. She just could not help it. He was a beautiful god. So tall, so lean and muscular and so gorgeous. That glorious hair of his swaying against his back while he walked on. Her eyes gazed at his hair and then went slowly down, down his hair, down his bare muscled back, and to that awesome ass she could make out underneath his silk pajama pants.

'Oh my, this is going to be hard for me! I keep looking at him! I have never gawked at a guy that much before in my life! What is going on with me! Oooh, I guess I need to get up and get ready for breakfast.

Sarah crawled out of bed and went into the bathing room. She peeled off her sleeping gown and stepped into the steaming bathing pool. It felt so nice. She scrubbed and washed with another soap of her choice, making sure to not take too long. She got out, dried off and then went to her wardrobe to pick out her clothing for the day. She found a lovely little ivory colored dress; it was simple yet beautiful. It hung around all of her curves showing off her now mature figure. She then grabbed some ivory colored shoes. She decided to pull her hair up with some of the clips that Jareth had left for her. She felt she looked pretty. She smiled to herself and made her way out of the bedroom.

She made her way down the many halls that lead to the dining hall. She felt nervous, but this time it was for a different reason. She now knew that he truly did like her, very much. She liked him too, although her feelings for him were new, they were still exciting to her. 'I hope that he likes what I picked out to wear today and my hair too!' She trotted around the last corner and came up to the doors to the dining hall. She saw that Maeryn was there outside of the doors.

"Are you waiting for me Maeryn?" asked Sarah.

"Actually yes!" smiled Maeryn. "Now lets get you in there to eat your breakfast with Jareth."

Maeryn winked at Sarah and opened the doors. "Your highness, Lady Sarah arrives."

"Thank you Maeryn, you are now excused."

Maeryn smiled at her King and nodded her head. She quietly shut the doors and was gone.

Sarah began walking towards the now smiling Jareth. He stood up for her, showing her the utmost respect. "My dear Sarah, you look beautiful this morning. Please come and sit by me."

Sarah's little feet padded their way to the chair now held out for her. She gladly took it and sat down. "Wow, look at everything that you have for breakfast! This is incredible!"

"I am glad that you like it. Now, please help yourself to whatever you would like."

With that, Jareth began taking various items and placing them on his plate. Sarah did the same. They ate, all the while smiling at each other and occasionally talking. They were soon done and sat back looking at each other.

"What would you like to do today Sarah?" asked Jareth.

"I am not sure. The gardens are beautiful, maybe I could go out there again. Then maybe I will take you up on your offer to explore your castle, that is if you still do not mind me doing so."

Jareth smiled, he certainly was happy that she loved the gardens, hopefully she would love everything else soon as well. "Sarah, my offer will always stand, you may explore this castle as much as you like. I would like to walk a bit with you in the gardens, well that is if you do not mind. Then I must go to my study to handle my duties."

Sarah grinned at Jareth. "Of course I do not mind! Hehehe, please come with me!"

And with that, Sarah grabbed Jareths hands and they headed for the gardens. She seemed so full of life and joy. He hoped that he could keep her that way forever. 'Her hands are so delicate and soft in my hand. Oh she is irresistible to me.'

Sarah was walking quite fast now, pulling him behind her. Jareth queried Sarah, "Sarah, where are we going?"

Sarah looked back at him and smiled big, "Oh you will see!"

She continued until she reached the lovely pond that he had shown her before. She led him to the small bench that was next to it and sat down. "Please Jareth, sit next to me."

Jareth sat down, all the while puzzled by her new actions. "Was there something that you wanted to talk about Sarah?"

"No, not really." Answered Sarah

Jareth had an odd expression on his face, "Well then what would you like to d…"

Jareth never got to finish!

This time it was Sarah that took the lead in tasting Jareth.

She was feeling so many new feelings, she was falling for him. How could she not? He was so good to her. No one had ever been that good to her, not even her own family. Another wonderful benefit of Jareth was how handsome he was.

Sarah leaned into Jareth, locking her hands into his hair, kissing him firmly on his mouth. She slowly began opening her mouth to him, hoping he would accept her invitation.

(NOTE, DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF ANYTHING SEXUAL BOTHERS YOU OR IF YOU ARE UNDER 18!)

Jareth's mind was on overdrive, 'This woman, she is incredible, she never ceases to surprise me! She is wild with passion. I still must be careful, I cannot let this go too far, for her sake. But oh, this tongue of hers, her lips, her intoxicating scent.'

Sarah poured her soul into that kiss. It was searing hot with desire and passion for the fae god she was falling for. She was having a hard time keeping her passion in check. She allowed her hands to roam down his back and then around to his chest. She rubbed and rubbed against that hard chest of his. She could feel his strong chest heaving with every breath he took, trying to keep up with her.

Jareth knew what he wanted to do with her, but he did not want to push her, it would not be right. But Sarah was not making it easy for him. Sarah got up into Jareth's lap and began kissing his neck. At this point, Jareth could not take it any longer. He pulled his hands up to touch her, the same ones that he had been commanding to not move. But now, the passion was too much, he had to touch her. His hands found her hair and he ran his fingers through it. Her hair was incredibly silky and her scent was melting his mind. He was now groaning, groaning from the pleasure of her tongue and mouth on his neck. His hands flowed down from her hair and head to her back and around to her arms. He then grabbed her arms tightly and pulled her away from him. "Oh Sarah." Jareth exclaimed. He then kissed her hard on the lips and gave a her deep, hot, wet tongue kiss. He then pulled away and began kissing down her neck, stopping to occasionally suck in little spots. He got down to her collarbone and let his teeth graze across it. He gently nipped at the edge of her neck. He raised his hands and placed them at the top of her shoulders.

Jareth's breath had become erratic. "Sarah, I need to ask you something."

Sarah gazed at Jareth with passion filled eyes and said, "Anything."

Jareth gasped, "Sarah, I want to touch you, just a little. Please, I want to feel you so badly. I will stop at anytime that you want me to."

"Jareth, you may touch me, just some. I will let you know when it is enough. But I do want this as much as you do! Jareth, thank you for asking me first, that means so much to me."

Jareth's eyes glazed over. He was deeply in love with her. There was no turning back, ever, for him. He kissed her again then stopped and looked at her.

"You are truly beautiful Sarah." Sighed Jareth.

Jareth then let his hands slide down Sarah's chest and stopped at her breasts. He let his hands mold to their shape and he gently squeezed. He then stroked them through the thin fabric of her dress. She was soon responding in many ways. She was groaning in delight and her nipples had become hard for their king. He looked up to her and then moved his fingers to the buttons of her dress. He watched for any objection from her. Upon seeing a gentle smile across her face, he continued. He nervously fumbled with the buttons. Something so simple seemed to take forever to do. He opened one, then two and more. With every button that he opened, his breathing seemed to pick up. When he finally had the top of her dress unbuttoned, he stopped and gazed into her eyes again. He seemed so nervous. He had found his treasure but was now too nervous to even open it. Sarah smiled at him and took his hands into hers. She moved them to the opening of the dress. She helped him open her dress up unto him. He gasped upon seeing her glorious chest. She still had her bra on, but it was no matter, it just made it all the more enticing. Sarah then opened the clasp at the front of her bra and pulled the cups away from her breasts, allowing them to be free. The cool air glided against her pale virgin skin causing her nipples to harden once again. Jareth stared in awe at this breathtaking beauty.

"Sarah, you are truly amazing, you are a goddess. Thank you for sharing yourself with me….."

Jareth began his joyous adventure with Sarah's upper body. His hands glided slowly across her collarbones and then slowly downward. Her skin was like the finest silk ever made. She was truly a sensual being. His hands slowly rounded the outside of her breasts. He treasured every second of this. He then allowed his hands to mold to her breast again. They caressed and rubbed every part of her silky white full breasts. His fingers moved around her nipples. He enjoyed seeing her react to him. She was groaning, and he could not help but groan along with her. Jareth was wild with desire. He got upon his knees and allowed his face to get close to her chest. Sarah placed her hands into Jareth's hair to let him know that she was fine with what he obviously wanted to do. He leaned into her chest and placed his face sideways into her. He almost seemed to be like a cat with catnip. He was in heaven. He then places his hands back on both breasts and began massaging them. He began kissing the middle of her chest and then licked her down the same path. Sarah groaned and groaned. Her fingers were deeply entangled into his hair. Her eyes were closed and her head was thrown back in complete passion. He moved his face over to her right breast. He licked all around the porcelain white globe. Then he placed his mouth around the perk pink nipple that was in all its glory for him. He sucked gently at first, licking and sucking her nipple. He gently nipped it and then licked it again. Sarah cried out in passion and squeezed her fingers even tighter. She had never felt anything like that before and she was loving every bit of it. He continued to massage both of her breasts. He then moved his hot mouth to her other breast. He opened his mouth wide and began to suck and lick. He let his tongue move around her nipple and again, he lightly nipped it. He began kissing both of her breasts, taking in every bit of their gorgeous nature. He sat back again and just looked at her. He groaned and reached out to touch her again.

Sarah's head came back down and she looked at him, "Is there something wrong?"

"No Sarah, there isn't anything wrong. I just have never seen anything as spectacular as you."

With that, Jareth lifted his face to hers and gave her a long passionate kiss.
