Chapter 31
"Capricorn" gasped Meggie her lips still molded to his in their kiss as it seemed to continue, her body settling once more into the familiar comfort of his arms.
"I love you, my king" whispered Meggie finally when his lips lifted away from hers as he lifted her back onto her feet their eyes sharing a smile that sparkled within them.
"I've been longing for you to kiss me that way, to feel you right here with me instead of so far away. I've just missed you" exclaimed Meggie in that moment wrapping her arms around him to press her face into his chest. Capricorn wrapped his arms around her in return his own face pressing into the gold of her hair. After a moment, she looked up at him, meeting his gaze with a wicked innocent stare that beckoned to him. He gave into that look as he leaned down to her level. That was when Meggie took his face in her hands, dragging him down even farther, and she quickly captured his lips. Rising on her toes only a little bit, Meggie gave herself to him completely even though she was always his. She kissed him with a fiery passion, her hands coming to dig into the fabric of his shirt as if to keep him in place. It was like she thought he would disappear again as quickly as he'd come, Capricorn understood that as he held her closer too. They didn't stay like that for long, for soon Meggie was in his arms again, dipped. He held her tightly, his face lifting from hers for only a moment to look at her with a special shine in his eyes. It was in Meggie's eyes too as she looked at him, an expectant look in her eyes as she waited to see what he would say. There was something in his eyes other then longing, a tenderness, and Meggie knew that meant that he had missed her too.
"This is how our reunion should have gone" whispered Capricorn, his voice like smooth silk as it ran over her skin.
"Don't think about that…we're together now, let's enjoy it" said Meggie, her voice gentle as she touched his cheek. She snuggled closer to him then that look still there as if she was afraid, he would leave her. Kissing him again, she ran her fingers down the side of his throat to the nape of it hearing as he growled in response. He always did like it when she ran her nails over his skin especially the nape of his neck.
"I want to hear about all the chaos you've been causing" whispered Meggie, as he set her on her feet once more.
"I'm so proud to be your queen, looking after things while you're gone, I want to hear of everything I'm not there to witness" exclaimed Meggie her body pressed close to his as she looked up into his eyes seeing a dark lust there that got darker the longer they looked at her.
"I need you, Meggie" whispered Capricorn then not saying anything more as he picked her up into his arms, not the sweeping way he usually did, but as if he were a caveman, throwing her over his shoulder with vigor as if as a way to prove his point.
Meggie squealed, feeling giddy, as he moved only a few steps before tossing her onto the bed in his lust. Meggie found it invigorated her as she turned over in time to have him move aside her skirts. She thought he would tear them down the middle right away, but he only looked at her with that look in his eyes. That heated, needy look that he so rarely felt, and then his hands were touching her. Sliding up the length of her very long legs until he held her under the knee only then did, he spread them, so he stood in between them. He dragged her closer then until she could feel the hard bulge between his legs and looking at him, she rolled her hips, making him growl as he hooked her legs around his waist. They watched each other, but a moment, until Meggie rolled her hips again letting them sway some more as she rose onto her elbows. She smiled as she beckoned him closer and kissing his lips, she deepened it immediately. Their foreheads touched as their kiss continued and Meggie shivered. He had been gone so long that this reunion unlike the first felt like a homecoming. For she had missed him. Thought of him in her every thought and now, he was here, hers again. It felt like that could slip away at any moment and kissing him, Meggie clung to it. She let her arms hang around his neck, loosely firm, as their kiss became even more passionate. She let her nails tease his skin creating that growl from deep within his chest as she did so.
"I need you too, my king, I've longed for you…make love to me" gasped Meggie as their lips parted his face in her hands as she looked up at him as his hands slid up to grip her hip as the other came to cup her breast, lightly squeezing it.
"I love you" exclaimed Meggie then holding him close as he ran his lips down the length of her neck until he met that space between her breasts that belonged solely to him. He left his mark there, hearing as she gasped, her nails leaving their own mark on him. That sound made him look at her. That dark lust was still in his eyes, it beckoned to her as he made his way back up to her lips. He traced those lips with his own as he kissed her letting his mind settle as he became lost in her. When they parted, he looked at her, their eyes a matching set of sinister black pools. He let his hand leave her breast then, bringing it to grip the back of her neck, so she couldn't look away.
They just looked at each other, a combination of pure emotion and pure lust shadowing their faces until his hand moved to caress her neck. His hand stopped above her heart where he had marked her.
"You are my greatest love, my beautiful wife, and my true queen. I love you…in my mind, you will always be mine" exclaimed Capricorn his words coming like a vow. Meggie smiled as she said them, her hand sliding to caress his neck as he had hers and touching his chest, she brought him closer. She held him in place as she locked her eyes with his. Her lips teased over his like that of a ghost.
"You know that I am always yours as you are mine. My king, the only man in my heart, and the love of my life" exclaimed Meggie, dragging him down to kiss his lips. She kissed him deeply, her grip on him powerful as she held him to her still, feeling as he gripped her waist all the tighter. Meggie felt as he held her hip, leaving his gentle bruises to mark her. She could feel him hard against her then and holding him close, Meggie silently said how she wanted him as their lips parted.
"Capricorn" gasped Meggie in that moment, as he finally ripped her skirts in two then the rest of her dress too, but as he did, Meggie didn't care as she listened to the zip like rip of the soft fabric.
"Meggie" growled Capricorn almost directly after her as her own hands began to rip his clothes away as well. First, his tunic, then the ties that held his pants together. His cock popped out then and their eyes met again. Meggie saw the effect she had on him more than as she palmed him, her smile coy as she teased him. He knew what she was doing, so did she, and Meggie felt him shiver. It wasn't a cold shiver, but the kind that showed his longing for her. Only Meggie had ever done that. Capricorn let her do so, enjoying the sensation of having her there with him. He let his hands caress her body then, his fingers parting the ripped fabric of her dress, to reveal her body. The exquisite body that he had longed for all this time. The one that belonged solely to him as he revealed it, He found her eyes then and they shared a tenderness that only they understood.
"Make love to me" whispered Meggie then, as they worked together then to rid themselves of the shattered bolts of fabric that entangled them until they were touching flesh to flesh.
"Make love to me" whispered Meggie, her voice, so low it was as if she was reciting a solemn vow. He met her gaze then, their eyes never parting as he brought his hands to cup the back of her knees. When he aligned himself with her wetness, she took a breath as if to prepare herself before slowly he entered her.
"My queen" whispered Capricorn then as her hand came to touch his cheek, his head coming down to meet hers as they kissed as his cock finally filled her a groan leaving him as she clutched him.
"I don't think I can let you go again" gasped Meggie, looking up into his eyes. He looked back at her; his eyes gentle revealing the same sentiment as he savored that clutching pleasure of being with her again. He had missed it, having her close again, her skin that smelt of something keenly her close enough for him to bury his face there to breath her in. Her hands on him again, touching his face in her tender almost pure way. It was almost overwhelming as he gazed upon her once more.
"I've longed for you, my love, you are my strength, the beauty in my life" growled Capricorn his voice seeming to echo around them as he dared not move still. He wasn't ready yet, he just wanted to look at her a moment more, to savor having her there. Because he knew the time would pass between them and they would be world's away once more. He cherished his time with her, as she did with him, their hearts touching as much as their bodies in that moment. When he could stand it no more, Capricorn kissed her, his body suddenly moving over her in the same moment. His movement was slow, his touch gentle yet strong as he memorized this moment with her.
"Capricorn" exclaimed Meggie then holding her body close to his as her arms draped around his neck in her way. Capricorn growled, he had missed the sound of his name on her lips in this way, bringing his hands to tighten her legs around his waist. They kissed repeated then before breaking away, Meggie mewled as he filled her again then again. Each one sounded closer to his name each time, making him growl again, his cock filling her harder and faster as he moved. As he did that, Capricorn became like an animal all in one moment, as his hands lifted her legs. He wrapped them higher around his waist and going inside her at a new angle now, Capricorn made her mewling incoherent as he hit that special place that drove her over the edge so easily. Meggie arched under his touch then, her body his play as she gave herself to him as she had always done, but somehow more so now. Now, she found she needed him more then ever, especially after the time they'd been apart.
"Capricorn" exclaimed Meggie then, her hips moving to meet his, but failing as he came to touch the side of her neck whispering her name in return as he kissed it continuing down until he reached the curve of her breasts. When Meggie's hands clutched at his body that was when Capricorn looked at her. He felt as her nails dug into his skin and he knew she was close. He wanted to see her come apart in his arms. It had become one of his favorite sights in the time since loving her. It always would be as he looked at her watching that sacred look on her face as she came. It felt like such a long time since he'd seen that look. Meggie brought him to kiss her then, her lips slick with her own saliva as he swiped his tongue across them. She gave him entrance immediately and kissing her passionately, he moved more quickly inside her. He threw a leg over his shoulder and when their lips parted, he made her squeal.
"Yes, my king" gasped Meggie in that moment her eyes were wide open. She stared up at him as a hand came to touch his chest. This time she didn't bring him close, but simply placed her hand there. She didn't move it, just let it rest there on his skin, as if to make sure he was really there as her eyes peered up constantly into his. When she seemed to realize he wasn't a figment her mind had created, she smiled, a look like relief on her face. The look in her eyes drew him closer as much as his name on her lips. Because part of him didn't want to go back. Part of him wanted to stay there with her. To return to her side without any ideas of conquering the Inkworld. Sometimes, he just wanted to stay with her, especially in moments like this. Because she was his greatest temptation. The love of his life. She was the other half to his soul, and it was moments like this, when he was keenly aware that he would be leaving her soon that he just wanted to stay with her forever. Somehow, Meggie sensed that as she sought out his hand with hers, intertwining their fingers as if to link them forever. It took only a few more deep strokes inside her to bring him to the edge.
When that moment came, Capricorn couldn't hold himself. He fell from grace, losing his usual composure as he just let himself be with her. He eased into her arms and felt as she held him, her fingers soft against his skin. He buried his face into the curve of her neck, softly kissing her, feeling as her hand cradled the back of his neck to hold him in place. In that moment, he felt as she caught her breath, as she came a second time as soon as he did.
"Don't leave me again" gasped Meggie as she came that second time. The words came from under her breath, her eyes closing as she held him close, and in that moment, Capricorn had the same sentiment. They could feel it as they breathed on one another. Her breath fanning out to waft above them as his covered her throat. It brought them all the closer in that moment. Time seemed to stop then, and they didn't move. Neither of them moved, they didn't dare or want to. They just wanted to be close to each other as he kissed the hollow of her throat before looking at her. After a moment, they left each other, his body leaving hers, but their eyes never doing so. Meggie kept one hand always touching him as he left her body a moan leaving her. She moved too, laying on her side as his hand caressed her side while hers lay softly on his chest. His arm was soon around her, pulling her to press into his sweat slick skin. He felt Meggie sigh, her breath chilling him as she laid her head on his chest as if savoring the fact that she could.
Meggie kissed him then, a brief peck of a kiss, her forehead touching his as their lips drew apart.
"I love you" whispered Meggie, her eyes closing as his touch lingered on her skin.
"I love you" whispered Capricorn moving her hair behind her shoulders to hold her all the closer. He felt her breath him in and then, she was looking at him, a smile on her face.
"I haven't been thrown onto a bed like that in a very long time" whispered Meggie, her eyes playful as they met his. He took her hand then both suddenly remembering a night that went much like this, but only slightly different. A night that seemed an age ago when in fact it had only been a few months. Looking at each other, they remembered it nonetheless, as they shared a slow kiss.
When they broke apart, Capricorn couldn't take his eyes from her as she intertwined their fingers. They didn't say anything, they were still remembering, until Capricorn brought her hand to touch his face. As it did, he kissed her palm, memorizing her touch as he did. He looked at her after closing his eyes, but a moment. Part of him wanted to take her back with him, but that wasn't an option anymore then anything else was.
"I'll never forget the night I made you my wife, I carried you into this room, not softly, but with all my strength. I threw you on the bed and ravished you, completely" exclaimed Capricorn ending the statement with a heated kiss as he captured her lips. Capricorn kissed her in response, his body laying content over hers, and as Meggie caressed his face, he just watched her.
"Your inspiration worked its magic as always, my love…you gave me the courage to stand on my own two feet. You inspired the bloodshed that our men reaped tonight. Without you, I fear I would have been lost" whispered Capricorn taking both her hands to bring them to his lips. Meggie felt worshipped in that moment, as he kissed her with such devotion. Because she'd never thought she'd be so cared for as she was by him. She never saw him coming, until suddenly he was there, to charm her in his dark way. To make her strong when she had been weak. As she looked upon him then, Meggie loved him for that as she used the hands, he held to draw him into her.
"I will forever be proud to be your queen and your wife. You make me so proud. All I want is to stand with you, together, I shall always be yours. My mind, my body, my spirit, all that I am" whispered Meggie, her voice tender. Her eyes looked into his and they were filled with something eternal. A type of glee that he shared, but something else too. A fierceness that he had passed onto her and that they would forever share now that they were one in the same. After a moment, they shared a smile as they inched all the closer until their lips met. Meggie wrapped one arm around his neck preventing him from going away from her before she wanted him to. Capricorn wasn't going anywhere anyway. Not until her lips drew away from his and she looked at him. He knew she knew that the potion would wear off soon and they would be apart again.
"Tell me about your revelry, my love…about the fire, and the screaming…and about the death" whispered Meggie, she could tell her words excited him as his eyes danced above her. That was when Capricorn truly grinned though, his head pressing into hers. The truth was he wanted to share this with her even though she wasn't there to sit at his side as he reaped his havoc. He had wanted her there, but this would have to do.
"I led my men through the forests of the Inkworld, my love, and I let them know I had returned. I thought of you, of my success, and our true reunion as havoc ignited around me. I lit the villages on fire and watched them burn with you in my heart to lead me. I let them all know to expect no mercy from me" whispered Capricorn on a growl, his touch on her tightening as he looked down at Meggie as her eyes danced with his.
"I told all of them to spread the word of my return" whispered Capricorn, low now, as her smile formed. Her hands came to cover his as she pressed herself all the closer to him.
"Good, they should know, prepare themselves, for you will be their king" whispered Meggie, proud of him in that moment.
"The Adderhead will be gone and you will rise. You will be the king of any world you want as you are the king of my world, always, forever, and now" said Meggie, her voice soft as it beckoned to him, both knowing the meaning behind them. He was touched by it as he felt the first tingles of the potion beginning to fade.
Meggie felt it too, maybe that's why she drew herself all the closer to him.
"And you will be their queen, as you are mine, the queen of my heart, the queen of my life, my eternal queen" whispered Capricorn touching her face as she touched his. Their foreheads touched, their eyes met, and the tingling continued. Soon, they would be apart once more.
"You are my great love, always. No matter how we may be parted, always remember that" whispered Capricorn his eyes suddenly intense.
"I love you" whispered Capricorn, their lips meeting in a slow kiss as they were pulled away.
