(warning: smut)
Happy Star wars weeks my lovely readers! Chapter thirty is officially up. I wanted to tweak a few things. Thank you for your patience and May the fourth be with you! And also Revenge of the Fifth!
This was becoming rather ridiculous.
He had either been laying in bed, or had someone's hands on him. Hands that were not his wife. He had not seen Falynn all day, and he was starting to become worried. Whenever the door opened Kylo perched himself up eagerly, but the only two people who ever walked through that door was Henne and Mayea. After seeing them, Kylo let out a grumble before laying himself back down. He had not expected his wife to take this long with her duties. Exactly what was she doing? He half expected by the time he finally left his room that Falynn would be the complete Supreme Leader. The thought caused him to snicker to himself as the visual amused him. If it were his wife he wouldn't have been surprised. Each day she was proving herself more and more, and setting the fact he had chosen wisely in who should be his companion. He wished she would just hurry on back, he was ready to see her again. He was now on his feet and walking around their sleeping quarters where he could stretch out his muscles that had become stiff. Mayea had been correct about the wounds in their rapid recovery, even removing his bandages. The force was truly an incredible power. It had only taken a day really for him to completely recover. As much as he hated to admit he could also thank his bloodline for that. Both his grandfather and his Uncle were powerful jedis, perhaps two of the strongest. That blood and power ran raw and deep within him. Both of them had survived much worse, seeing as Kylo had only been injured in his back this was nothing.
The sound of the door beeping had Kylo warily turning towards the doorway expecting to see the doctor or the handmaiden again. His heart leapt in his chest when it was neither, but this time the person he had been hoping to see all day. Falynn walked in slowly as she removed the cape from around her shoulders and let it fall to the ground. When she saw Kylo out of his bed her brows lifted in surprise. Exhaustion was etched in every inch of her face and body. She had taken on Kylo's role for him, giving him the space and time to recover. She had looked as exhausted as he often felt when he had been constantly attending to his duties as the Supreme Leader, but he was practiced in that, had always been. This was new to his wife, yet she still stepped up as the Empress and took over after his troops had faced a terrible defeat. Kylo couldn't help but to stare at his wife in admiration. Apparently he was looking at her strangely because her brows creased in concern as she walked over to him and clasped his face between her hands. Tilting her head and squinting her eyes she closely studied his face.
"Are you feeling alright?" Falynn leaned back a little as her eyes trailed down his body. "They removed your bandages."
"I'm fine, Falynn," Kylo placed his hands over hers. "The wounds are already starting to scar over. Mayea did suggest though that we continue to rub the ointment on it. Would you like to do that for me while you tell me how today went."
A small smile appeared on her lips as she nodded. Lowering his hands Kylo took one of hers and led her over to the bed. Sitting down on the side he wrapped his arms around Falynn and pulled her close to him where his face was nuzzled against her stomach. Falynn let out a soft laugh as she ran her fingers through his hair.
"It will be a bit difficult," she said. "To apply your ointment on your back in this position."
"I don't really need it," he admitted pulling her closer to him. "I just wanted a reason to be close with you, without you giving me any type of sassy remark."
Falynn laughed again but gently pushed on his shoulders. "It is probably still a good idea to put the ointment on you."
Kylo's arms tightened around his wife's curved waste. "Tell me how today went first."
With a sigh Falynn stopped pushing on his shoulders and allowed her hands to rest there as she explained. "Today went fine. The troops that were with us on Geonosis are tired but recovering. I told them to take another day of rest, before they continue with their duties and training. The armories are working on inventory and gathering supplies to make up for the weapons we lost during the battle. The command deck said there hasn't been any strange readings or markings, or any type of disturbance they have spotted. The grenades," Falynn went quiet for a minute before she continued. "There is something off about them, I went to the lab to go inspect what they had traced, and there was a certain energy emanating from them."
Kylo leaned his back arching an eyebrow at her. "An energy?"
"I can't explain," she frowned as her fingers gripped onto his shoulders. Kylo didn't think she realized she was even doing it. "I can't explain what it was. Neither could they, so I told them not to stop until they figured it out."
"Being strict are we?"
Falynn's face hardened as she resolutely proclaimed. "Those weapons injured my husband aiming to kill him. Chances are they are planning to make more if they haven't already. So damn straight will I be strict to make sure they can't do that to you ever again."
Warmth thrummed throughout Kylo's body as his hands moved up from her waist, until they were resting on her lower back. She wasn't doing any of this for herself, all of this was for him, because she was angry for what the Resistance had done. The emotions were visible in her sea-colored eyes, and her walls were down where that resentment sang deep into his own mind. He had noticed since they had returned her mind hadn't been completely blocked off from him anymore. He wasn't sure if she realized the fact, but she was becoming easier to read which was a relief to him. Running his hands up further up her backs as if he could soothe some of that anger and fire he saw within her, Kylo pulled her closer to him where she had to put one of her knees on the bed.
"We will figure it out," he reassured her. "I promise you I won't let anything happen to myself or you ever again."
Removing one of her hands from his shoulder so she could run it through his hair Falynn asked. "What makes you so sure?"
"Because I am Kylo Ren," he stated matter-of-factly. "I am the Supreme Leader of the First Order. I will not fall so easily." grabbing her hand from his head Kylo pulled them both down, where she was now leaning over him eyes wide. "And I will be damned if I let anything happen to me or my wife." tracing a finger down her jawline Kylo gave Falynn a tender smile. "That's why you don't need to be so angry anymore."
Grabbing onto the back of her neck Kylo pulled Falynn down where her lips came crashing down onto his. Falynn let out a gasp as her body fell forward until it was completely on top of Kylo's. He wasted no time in taking her in his arms around her as he aggressively shoved his tongue inside of her. Falynn let out a surprise moan when his tongue slid over the roof of her mouth then brushed it against hers. Falynn quickly reciprocated the action as her own tongue flicked its way inside of him. The action was simple but enough to send Kylo's mind over the edge. Grabbing a hold of Falynn's waist he flipped them over where he was now hovering over her body like a heavy shadow. Falynn stared up at him heavy lidded, the heated expression causing a growl to rise up in him. Grabbing the band that bound the bottom of her braid, Kylo smoothly removed it, before he bent back down kissed her once again. The two of them held onto each other in a tangled embrace as they drank each other with their tongues, heat, and caress. Both Kylo and Falynn trailed kisses over each other's faces, necks, ears over and over again. While sucking on her neck Falynn arched her body up into his body, splintering his thoughts into some type of beast. A creature that he couldn't control and he had been containing for a long time. He needed her, not just parts no he needed all of her. Perhaps he had wanted this long before he had realized who Falynn was to him, that she somehow found a way to completely drain out anything that had ever been important and had taken its place. She was his. She was his wife, his Empress, and the woman that he desired. In that moment Kylo didn't believe he needed anything else, that this moment would be enough for him.
Pulling back, Kylo briefly took in his wife whose braid had now come unbound, and was now laying in waves on their gray pillows. Her red swollen lips were parted a beckon for him to kiss her again. Keeping his eyes locked with hers, Kylo hands trailed down her chest until they were on the clasp of the black leather she wore, that he began to slowly unbound.
"Kylo, are you sure," Falynn's voice breathed out. "Your injuries."
"They're fine," he roughly snapped out as he continued with each clasp. "I'm fine. I want you, Falynn. I need you right now."
Falynn's eyes glistened at his words as she reached a hand up and touched the scar that was on his face. Kylo leaned into her palm briefly kissing before he yanked apart the black leather. He snarled at the undershirt that continued to block what he truly wanted to see. Falynn yelped as Kylo took the black fabric in his hands and tore it in two. His eyes hungrily scanned over the swells of her breast roaming down her smooth skin until they stopped on the scars that roughly formed on her stomach. Narrowing his eyes he traced his fingers over them. Falynn's body stiffened under his touch. These were stab wounds, and by the looks of it they were old.
This had not been a recent event.
Kylo looked at Falynn for a moment, who was now looking away from him.
Abruptly grabbing her face Kylo forced her to look up at him.
"Who gave these to you?" he demanded. "Who did this?"
Falynn was quiet and all heat that had been in her eyes was now gone as she softly answered. "Ren, I don't want to talk about-"
"Tell me!" narrowing his eyes he harshly demanded. "What happened for you to get multiple stab wounds?"
Flinching Falynn went to grab for the covers, but Kylo quickly grabbed both of her hands and pinned her hands down above her head. She was trying to hide from him again, Kylo even felt the walls going back up. An ache spread throughout his body. Peering at her face he was surprised to see there was fear there. What was she afraid of? Did she think she could not trust him? He didn't want that wall built back up, he wanted her and that meant all of her. He didn't care what she had to say to him.
"Please," his voice softened.
Swallowing with her face directed towards the large window, a tear slipped onto her cheek as Falynn began her voice quiet and distant. "When I discovered what my father had kept from me for all of these years I felt betrayed and I felt lost. I traveled for a while to get my mind off things and to sort my emotions out. I got into some circumstances I shouldn't have out of defiance. I associated with thugs, back water merchants, and others in that category. I got these stab wounds from a bad dispute. That's all."
Kylo studied her for a moment long before releasing her and moved his head down where his lips brushed up against each scar. Falynn's body slowly relaxed under each touch, as his lips trailed across her stomach. Maybe it was shame, or the fact she needed to keep a strong image because she was his wife now, but he didn't want her to hide that from him. Kylo didn't know all about what happened within Falynn's family, but he did understand having trauma from the choices your family had made. Kylo had been torn with others trying to decipher who he was, some telling him to join the dark, while others tried pulling him into the light. Kylo hadn't been able to make any of his own choices, and because of that his circumstances had led him to where he was now.
"You don't need to hide from me, Falynn," Kylo spoke against her skin as his hand moved up to cup her breast in his hand. "Promise me that, and I won't hide from you."
Trailing his kisses up he pulled the rest of the leather and scraps of cloth off her, leaving her completely naked from the waist up. Kylo's tongue flicked out savoring the taste of her as he sucked on different parts of her from her neck, shoulders, eventually to her breast. Falynn let out a moan reaching around so she could tangle her fingers in his hair. He moaned from the feeling of her firm grip onto him and continued to suck and pull hooking his fingers into the waistband of her pants and roughly pulling down. Kylo quickly discarded the rest of her clothing as he sat back and drank in every inch of his wife who was now laying fully bare in front of him. Falynn's skin was fair and soft, and her curves were what he always imagined what they would be. His eyes moved to her shoulder that was now scarred and knew there was more on her back. She grew up living a privileged life, but somehow this woman before him grew such a rough exterior. How much of that had she faced alone? Where had she been before Darred brought his daughter to him? He didn't know if he would ever get those answers and he wouldn't push for them, but in a way he was grateful for them. Those scars were what brought the Falynn he knew to him.
"You're beautiful," he smiled as he leaned over her. "May the force be with me."
Kylo leaned down as he roughly took her mouth in his. "I am not going to hold back, anymore, Falynn."
The flame that had always been a part of Falynn was now a part of him as well as both of them took their time exploring one another's bodies. He savored her breast, her lips, shoulders, neck and when he was done with that he discarded her black pants so he could devour her whole. Falynn had arched herself into him as she clutched onto the sheets, his hair, and his back. She begged for more which Kylo greedily delivered until her voice had turned raw for screaming his name.
"Ren!" she had thrown her head back with a moan.
"Kylo," he huskily corrected her as he moved back over her. "To you I am Kylo."
A tender expression flickered across Falynn, as she softly said. "Kylo."
With his first name on her lips, symbolizing who she was to him and what that meant he kissed her once again. Falynn's lips moved slowly and sensually against his as she removed her black trousers, and took her turn in making Kylo's body twitch and hum with pleasure. This was his first time ever being with a woman, and he was sure it was her first time being with a man but their bodies knew each other. His body already knew what it needed to do to please her, to make her call out in pleasure. It was the same with Falynn as she took her time with him being steady and slow with her hands and lips; his body had a heat building up that was about to spill over the edge.
When she had finished Kylo could no longer take the wait as he pulled them both up pulling her onto his lap. Falynn clutched onto his back careful not to touch his wounds as he made their bodies one entity completing that heat and warmth. Falynn's hips moved steadily with his own as he clutched onto her hips keeping her tightly against him.
"Kylo," she breathed out his name, tapping her forehead against his. Tears were staining her cheeks as she whispered. "Kylo. You're here. You're here."
Kylo wrapped his arms around her, lowering her back down on the bed holding her legs up so he could move more rapidly within her. Their eyes never left each other as their bodies over and over again became united. They kept their movements hard and quick as they both feared they would never be able to capture this moment again until they both were crying out each other's name in ecstasy.
Kylo fell back onto the bed pulling Falynn down with him. The two of them were now covered in sweat and essence of each other, as they tried to catch their breath. It took him a moment to realize what had just happened. After being married for over a month Falynn and he finally sealed themselves as husband and wife in the most intimate way possible. He couldn't even describe the emotions he was feeling as he felt like he owned only half of himself now, while Falynn now had the other half. He knew it was the same for her, they had both given and taken from each other. It was something truly remarkable really how two human beings could give and take so much in such a pleasurable way. Falynn was his first, but his body seemed like it already knew what to do with her. Falynn curled up to Kylo as he wrapped an arm around her shoulder. Resting her head on his shoulder she began to giggle. Frowning Kylo looked down at the top of her head, which was now a tangled mess of copper and waves.
"What exactly is so funny?"
"We finally did it," she reached her arm out over his chest. "Just never imagined we would get to this point."
He would have retorted something back to her if it weren't for the fact that he agreed. It had taken quite a lot for the two of them to finally reach this point. The unnerving part of it all was that it took two major incidents and injuries to both of them for any of it to happen. Kylo understood that if it had continued, both of them being so stubborn something far worse could have happened. Pulling her closer to him Kylo moved his fingers along her body, to trace the scars that had now formed on her back as he turned to face her. Reciprocating to the touch Falynn's own fingers moved to his new wounds as she nestled her head between his neck and shoulder.
"I am glad we didn't reopen them," she sighed against his skin, then added mischievously. "I believe we moved around enough that we could have."
Mouth quirking to a grin Kylo pressed her naked body closer to his as he said close to her ear. "Don't forget who I am, Falynn. Not even that much activity could bring me down."
"I will take that as a challenge," she playfully scoffed, then said softly. "I am glad you are with me right now, Kylo."
Memories of Falynn that night surrounded by smoke and being pulled away surfaced back to Kylo's mind. Wrapping both of his arms securely around her he rested his lips onto her head as he said quietly. "I am too."
He would take them down.
Every last one of them if he had to.
If that meant she would be with him.
He didn't matter what it took, he would see them all burn into a smoke of dust whether on the ground or amongst the galaxy if it meant she was safe. As he sealed the promise to himself Kylo moved himself over Falynn and made love to her once again. This time slowly where he could etch that promise into her as well.
