A/N: I'm really liking writing Wendy and Lilina as best friends, I think that's swaying me into something interesting.

The sunlight peeked through the window and curtains of the large bedroom near the top of the castle. It was going to be to be a hot day in Ostia as it had been for the last week, a summer heatwave striking the country with no end in sight.
"Ugh, this is so much worse than when we had to trudge through the desert! And we were fighting a war the whole time there!" A frustrated Lilina huffed as she was waking up from a night of sleep that was filled with a bunch of twisting and turning. "I mean I'm used to heat because of my magic, but this is insane. Are you even listening to me Rutger, are you awake?"
"I am." Rutger replied curtly, he wasn't enjoying this heat either, though he was taking it just slightly better than Lilina was since he was used to living out in nature when his parents were alive and they had to deal with wild weather all the time. "I wish I wasn't, but I am."
"You know what the worst part is though?" Lilina asked as she faced him, causing him to face her as well. "That it's so hot that we can't cuddle at night without being uncomfortable. I hate it."
"Yeah, that is another downside, I agree." Rutger noted before a torch was lit in his mind and he smirked at her. "But I know what we can do to get a bit closer, and I think you know what it is." It took Lilina a moment for the morning haze to clear her mind and get the point, but when she did she smirked back at him.
"I love you, you're so smart." She said before moving closer and kissing him on the lips sweetly.
"Hey, that's my line." Rutger replied, but after that they started to go at it, kissing and touching, trying to get their clothes off as quickly as they could to mitigate all the extra body heat they were making together. They had gotten down to their undergarments before there was a knock on the door and a voice coming from the other side.
"Lady Lilina! Sir Rutger! Are you awake? Are you decent?" At this point the knights and castle workers knew better than just to barge into the couple's bedroom like they had been used to doing with Lord Hector, lest they see something that they would rather not, even if they were glad that they were in the service of such a loving couple.
"That sounds like Bors, I wonder why he'd be the one knocking on our door." Lilina wondered as she pulled away slightly from kissing Rutger. He was about to answer that he didn't know either until his own morning fog left his mind and his eyes went wide.
"Shit, shit, shit, I forgot that I promised that I would be training and sparring with the new squire recruits today, he's probably wondering if I'm ready to go." He said quickly getting out of bed and getting a new set of clothes on. "I totally forgot because of how damn hot it's been, sorry but I have to go Lilina." He got dressed very quickly, something he got from the nomadic lifestyle he had in Sacae, and gave Lilina a final kiss before starting to leave.
"Don't forget your sword!" She reminded him and he placed his hand on his hip and noticed it was gone, so he quickly ran over to get it and strap it to his belt. Then he was ready to leave. "Love you! Hopefully we can get together for dinner or something!"
"Love you too, and hopefully." He confirmed before he opened the door and closed it behind him quickly so Bors wouldn't see anything he didn't want to. And while the two of them were the rulers of Ostia, that was a busy position. Some days they only saw each other in the morning and right before bed, and they never knew just which days those would be, so they had to savor every moment they had together. Today that was just really getting to Lilina and she flopped down on her bed in frustration and started talking to herself.
"Sometimes I wish the war was still going on, we actually got some free time to ourselves once in a while because of the travel and because Roy was in charge." She muttered. "And of course if it wasn't for stupid Zephiel and that perverted Narcian my father would still be alive and we'd have more time for dates and normal courting things. Not that I blame Rutger though, he tries his best to make each moment we have special and he's really good at it, which I don't know whether I should find that strange or not. On the one hand his parents must have taught him well, they had a great relationship, and he was a really good friend back when we were little, but on the other he had become really distant and moody when we met again. Is he just trying to make up for that or is that how he would have been if his parents were still alive."
"Well for my two gold, I think he really loves you with all his heart and that's really all that matters." Lilina had been so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't even notice that her most trusted knight and best friend (other than Roy) Wendy had come into her room.
"Wendy! Haven't you learned your lesson to knock before you come in here!" Lilina said covering herself with the light bedsheet.
"I did knock, but you were just talking to yourself and I already saw my brother leaving with Rutger so I figured you'd be in here by yourself." Wendy said matter-of-factly. "And come on, I've seen you in less, no need to hide yourself. It's way too hot again today anyways."
"Agreed." Lilina said throwing the sheet away, though still taking a protective pose with her body. "So, why'd you come in here anyways, just to talk and give me relationship advice?"
"No, not particularly. But why were you talking to yourself anyways?" Wendy wondered.
"The heat is really getting to me along with all the stuff we have to do around here, I'm just a little stressed, that's all. I'm sure that when the weather breaks I'll be fine." Lilina noted.
"Well, sorry to say that I'm not here to make it any better." Wendy said remorsefully. "Sooo, remember last month when we had to go to Laus when they chose their new Marquess?"
"Unfortunately." Lilina said rolling her eyes. "Like he seems to be a better ruler than Lord Erik or his father, a low bar to pass I know, but he just had some sort of infatuation with me. I'm surprised that Rutger didn't pre-emptively cut his tongue out with a rusty knife, and I would have thanked him for it." She let that thought sink in for a bit before her eyes shot open and she realized what Wendy was telling her. "NOOOO! No, no, no! You can't tell me he's here, right now?"
"He's not exactly here at the moment, but he'll be here within the hour. With a retinue of knights and merchants bearing gifts. A messenger just arrived not long ago with the news." Wendy said solemnly. "I can tell them that you're sick or something, make them come back when you're more ready."
"While I would love that Wendy, that's not the best course of action if we want to keep Lycia united in the long run. I'll see him and I'll deal with him how I see fit. He'll learn I'm as firm a leader and person as my father was, one way or another." Lilina said determinedly as she finally got out of bed and started to get dressed. "Send a message to your brother and Rutger for me, if they hear about someone getting punched in the face or lit on fire, it was me and they don't need to worry about it because I have it handled." Wendy gave Lilina a smile, letting her know that she approved of her plans.
"So, what are you going to take with you to meet him?"
"Well, I think Forblaze might be a tad overkill, so I'll take an Elfire tome and if that doesn't put him in his place I'll take a staff to beat him over the head with." Lilina answered. She too was fast at getting dressed because of how active she had to be as the Marquess. "Now the only question is should I bring a Sleep or Silence staff?"
"Why not both?" Wendy suggested. Lilina shruged and attached one staff to her hip along with her tome holder and held the other in her non-casting hand.
"Alright, let's do this!"
-Later That Night-
"I can believe how persistent that guy was!" Lilina yelled frustrated as she and Wendy stood outside the door to her bedroom. "I lit his cape on fire, shut him up with the Silence staff, 'accidently' kneed him in the crotch twice, and repeatedly told him to stop hitting on me! He is so lucky that we aren't at war with Laus anymore, because I would have incinerated him on the spot for the last thing he said."
"Sorry I wasn't around more to help you out, I think he had his knights distract me on purpose to keep me away." Wendy replied a bit dejected. "It's tough knowing all those compliments they were giving me were probably fake. But it was probably nothing compared to what you had to deal with. What did he say that finally ticked you off so much you went on that rant that lasted fifteen minutes."
"He made several racist remarks about the Sacaen people, ending the whole tirade on how I'd fall out of love with Rutger eventually because of his heritage and how I could be his mistress when that happened. I swear to Elimine if he said one more word I would have murdered him in cold blood and risked another war. Not only are the Sacaen people some of the nicest I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, they are the backbone and driving force of modern Elibe. Without them Nergal would be ruling the world with morphs and dragons or we would have lost the war with Bern and humans would be almost extinct. The nerve of some people that still believe all those nasty things about them is unbelievable. I wish Lady Lyndis were still alive to teach them a thing or two about respect." Wendy could tell that Lilina was getting heated up again so she tried to change the subject.
"I wish I could have met her, your stories about her are always so fun to hear. Is it true that she could make five afterimages of herself in a single attack with her speed in battle?" She asked.
"Six actually." Lilina answered. "And don't think I don't know what you're trying to do Wendy, but I do appreciate it. All I need to do is just go into my room, cool off, and maybe talk to Rutger about our day."
Or maybe just have him fuck me so silly I forget about everything that happened. She thought to herself quickly before finishing her thought with Wendy. "Thank you for everything you did today, I know it was hard, but you did your job as my knight and my friend just as well as you always do, and I thank you for that."
"All in a day's work for the betterment of Ostia, Elibe, and one of my closest friends." Wendy said proudly. "Have a good night Lilina, I'll be here in the morning if you need anything." Lilina gave her a hug and Wendy went off to get a snack before heading to her quarters for the night. Lilina was glad to have such a good friend as her around, but as soon as she opened the door to the bedroom she was greeted by a wonderous sight, at least in her mind, Rutger sitting on the bed in nothing but his pants, body glistening with sweat, his chest and abs all out for her to see, along with some scars but let's be honest that just made him look even hotter.
"Oh, there you are Lilina, I heard you had a rough day today." He said with a smile. His day, while busy, was actually quite fun and he had enjoyed himself. Winning about 50 duels in a row along with a 15 v 1 battle royale does that for a guy. "Why don't you come sit down and we can talk about it? I brewed some cold tea that could help with whatever your stressed with." Normally Lilina would love this situation and say it's all she wanted for the night, but not this night. Tonight it seemed the roles were reversed, Rutger was the calm and collected one and she was the curt and fierce one.
"Pants off, now!" She said with such an intensity that not even Rutger could misunderstand the meaning. So he listened to what she said and started to take the rest of his clothes off. He was caught off guard when the moment after his underwear hit the floor Lilina had climbed onto his lap, already naked, and started to kiss him very passionately and had her hands all over him like she hadn't seen him in years.
"What's gotten into yo-?" He tried to ask after the first barrage of kisses was over but Lilina just put her finger on his lips to shut him up.
"This is how tonight is going to go. You're gonna fuck me with everything you've got and then some and then we'll talk about our days, got it?" Rutger couldn't do anything but nod in agreement, but even he had to agree that Lilina being this firm and fierce was quite a turn on for him, he was already hard after just a bit of kissing and he was full of energy for the entire night. "Good, now kiss me like it's the end of the world and it's the last chance you'll get."
"Oh, I can do much more than that." He said really getting into it. If she wanted to get fucked hard then he would do that for her. His hands reached down to her hips and lifted her up before violently pushing her down onto his cock, instantly burying his length all the way inside her body.
"Elimine yes!" Lilina moaned and as Rutger moved his hands to her butt and beyond the sounds of the night were loud, constant, and loving. They lost count of how many rounds they went but eventually their energy and intensity ran out and they had to stop. All hot, sticky, and sweaty they still clung to each other despite the heat. They were about to speak normally until a crack of thunder lit up the room and a heavy downpour started right outside the castle walls.
"Oh now it starts raining!" Lilina said in as much of a huff as she could muster. But Rutger was a bit more calm about the whole thing, gently sliding out of the bed before picking Lilina up and carrying her out towards the balcony of their bedroom. "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Haven't you ever stood out in the rain to cool off?" He asked softly. "It's one of the best feelings in the world, almost feels like being underneath a waterfall." When they got to the doorway he set her down on her feet and took her hand, waiting for her acceptance to step outside. Of course she trusted him so the two of them walked out onto the balcony and as the cold rain started to hit their bodies they gasped at first before starting to relax and finally cool off. "Gods, I needed this, doesn't this feel great?"
"It really does." Lilina agreed. "Plus it helps us clean ourselves off after all we did in there." She added with a giggle and Rutger laughed as well. That lasted a few moments before Lilina became more somber and clung to Rutger again. "You know I'll always love you right?"
"Of course I do, what brings you to say that?" Rutger asked a bit confused.
"Well, remember the last time we were in Laus?" Lilina asked back and eventually she got to telling Rutger about what happened to her today and of course he got a bit angry, but more than anything he was being comforting and assuring. "So, that's basically why I was acting like that."
"Makes a bit more sense now, but honestly it was pretty hot of you being so demanding like that." Rutger admitted. "Feel free to do that more often." That got Lilina to laugh fully and she was feeling much better than she had earlier. "See, there's the sunshine I'm used to. Everything is going to be okay, trust me." After that they were quiet for a few moments before Rutger started to walk back inside. "Come on, let's get dried off." But Lilina didn't go with him and in fact pulled him back into the rain.
"Mmm, I think I can go one more round with you." She said seductively.
"Out here in the rain?" Rutger asked.
"You have a problem with that?" Lilina smirked.
"Nope, no problem at all."
