Author's Note - Yeah, yeah, I'm at it again...oh well!
Life of a Dancer 2 - Chapter Thirty
Arden awoke some time later, finding that they were now plunged into darkness. Night had already fallen and the moon was high again in the sky. He still felt the heaviness, and found that Lily was still asleep on top of him, and at that he smiled. He could not believe that with the ugliness that Vidicar had shown her, she could still be so innocent.
Not wanting to disturb her sleep, he attempted to move her off of him, only to find her curling deeper into him, unconsciously. Smiling that she trusted him that deeply, he succeeded in getting her off of him, and leaned over and lit one of the nearby candles. He then saw that food for both was in the room. Standing up, he went over to where the bathing room was, and found it lit with similar candles, and a bath prepared, with rose petals in the water.
Silently walking back into the bedroom, he saw Lily had moved to the side that he was sleeping on before and curled herself around his pillow. Leaning over her, he whispered, "Are you awake beloved?"
Shaking her head, she giggled. Lifting her up into his arms, as she giggled some more, he carried her to the bathing room. He then placed her into the bath, and heard her sigh as the heat of the bath radiated into her bones. Joining her in the bath, she moved herself against him again and just curled into his lap. Smiling as she had placed her head onto his shoulder, she just stayed against him for the longest time.
"Lily, do you want to clean yourself, since we are in here?" Arden said after 10 minutes of her not moving
"I guess I should" she said as she moved away from him, and grabbed the nearby scrubbing sponge that had been placed on the small table, along with Axia's favourite body gel. Opening the bottle, Lily inhaled the gel's smell and smiled.
"What are you smiling at, not that I mind." Arden said coming behind her and taking the gel bottle in hand
"It reminds me of the scents my father used. I miss him so much. He was always a very serious person, but he rarely talked about his parents. I would love to have known more about them." she said as Arden had taken the sponge out of her hand and with the hair sticks also on the table, had placed her hair up and began to wash her back.
"Yes it is a very unusual scent. Almost sandalwood, and lavender, and if I am not mistaken, freesia as well." he said as he got close to her and sniffed her skin, as the scents mingled with her body chemistry.
"Hmm, well I love what you are doing Arden." she said eyes closed as he ran sensuous circles on her back.
Running the circles very lightly over her, he could hear her moans of relaxation. She then leaned into him, as he moved towards her front, with the sponge. Moving just as slowly as he did on her back, he moved the sponge over her arms, hold each one up, as he cleaned all the crevices. Avoiding her sensitive breasts, he moved along her neck and stomach just as slowly. Hearing her moan louder, he moved towards her legs, after placing her on the ledge on the top of the bath. Holding her leg, he gently moved along the length of them, in small circles, until her toes. Taking her small feet, which he thought was amazing, considering her height, he gently massaged the gel into them. Lost in thoughts of pleasing her, he lost track of how this would make her feel sexually, until her moaning cut through his meandering mind.
"I'm sorry Lily, I didn't mean to make you aroused" Arden said as he took her back into the water, facing him
"That is alright Arden" she said, before she launched herself into his arms and began to deeply kiss him.
He responded in kind, and held her close as he kissed her back. Holding each other, he edged her towards the ledge again, and slowly placed her onto it. Leaning into her, he guided her onto her back, allowing her legs to hang between him, as he slowly kissed her stomach, moving himself closer to the juncture between her thighs. As he got closer, he could feel the moisture that she was generating. When he reached there, he eagerly plunged between her thighs and delved into her. Arching at the sensations, Lily moaned out loud before crying out. As she quivered around him, he smiled, as he brought her back towards him, and set her on top of him, with him still in the water, and her back against the ledge. Guiding her towards climax again, he drove deep inside of her. She then learned that if she placed her hands onto the ledge, she could lift herself against him, and did so. Allowing her to lead, he held her hips as she guided the pace. Dying slowly, Arden could not keep the moans from escaping, as she learned that if she clenched as she came up, it would increase her pleasure, as well as his. Feeling it slowly build again, the wonderful feelings that he had only ever experienced with her, he felt himself come inside her again. He again thought, as he held her, that if they did not stop doing this, he was going to make her pregnant, and he mused on the ramifications of that.
OoO
Later as they finished the now cold meal, which had been prepared for them, he continued to look at her with wonder.
"Arden is something wrong? You haven't said a word in hours." Lily said placing her fork down
"I was just thinking of you round with my child, and how I would feel about that" Arden said honestly
"Children? Is that how they are created Arden? With what we have been experiencing?" Lily said in wonderment
Arden then realized just how naive and innocent she was, and smiled. "Yes beloved, this magic that I have been creating with you is exactly how babies are made. But I have not been using anything to make you not pregnant. Do you want me to? I know you are young, and now that you are free, you may want to experience the world. I would love to show you it, but.." Arden was saying until Lily walked over to him and silenced him with a kiss.
"If the magic that you have shown me makes babies, then I am okay with that." Lily said against his lips.
"Are you sure about that Lily? You are beginning your freedom, and I don't want to be the cause of any unhappiness." he said, holding her hands in his and staring into her beautiful lavender eyes
"I am sure. I now have family, and someone that loves me. I knew you did, even in the monastery. Everyone knew, except Vidicar. He was far too wrapped up in me to notice anyone else. I think that is what kept you safe. If he had any inkling, you would have been killed. You know that right?" she said with a tear falling down her cheek
"Yes, and I tried to keep my feelings a secret, but I guess I fail at that." he said, wiping away the tear. "So shall we stay in here, or meet up with your family?"
"I suppose we should go down stairs...then again, I am sure there are a few things left you can teach me about magic" she said grinning, as she began to remove his clothing
