Chapter 11 – Him
Realization
Waking up with her in the bed beside me was not something you could have told me I would be doing today. Last night was everything and more that I could have wanted from being with her. I couldn't help but remember floating in mid air as I gave her everything I had to give.
She sat on the bed and fidgeted with her hair. Her beautiful silver hair that I had been seeing in my dreams and those big beautiful eyes. She was glowing as the moonlight shone through the window. She reached her head up and basked in the light. She seemed to get stronger as the moon rose in the dark sky. She went from glowing to glittering in a matter of moments. I was in awe of her. The one I had dreamed of for so long was by my side. I sat with her as she looked at me. She closed her eyes and smiled "Is this what you remember? This is what I remember."
I took her face in my hands being as gentle as I could. I looked in her eyes and kissed her again. It was just as I remember. Her sitting on that bench watching me. "Serenity…."
"Endymion."
I laid her back on the bed her hair fanning out behind her. Her eyes watching every move I made and attempted to match it. I hovered over her and kissed her. The blood rushing to every contact point I had with her. She didn't stop me and nor did I stop. I felt the back of her and pulled her towards me as she nodded and kissed me. I didn't wait. My clothing was gone in seconds. The moment I connected back to her she ran her hands over my chest as I pulled her to me. With one swift movement I entered her. Time and space where lost as she arched into me. It was just her and me in this moment. We were floating as moved within her. She cried out moments later as the moment of pure bliss reached across her face. I too cried out releasing everything that was meant for her.
I watched her sleep peacefully. My fingers pulling the stray silver hair from across her eyes. She was still curled in my side. The sheet that I had pulled over both of us still tucked around her. I felt her shift and murmer as her eyes slowly opened to look at me. She smiled as she was slowly recalling what had happened last night.
"Slept well did you Princess?" I stood up from the bed and walked to where my clothes had landed. I knew she was watching me. I could tell by her not saying anything and the movement that she had sat up. I pulled up my pants and put on my boots and turned to her. I kissed her leaving her sitting there watching me. "I will go down and get us something to eat. You may want to dress and get changed. I won't let anyone get close to you. I will protect you. I will always protect you." I watched her nod slightly and with a shake of her head she was back to being the red head with green eyes. "I still think I like the silver over the red. But the red is growing on me." I slipped my shirt over my head and watched her rise with the sheet around her.
She looked back at the bed and her face fell. There was blood soaked into the sheet.
"Ohhh…." Her face flushed pink. She looked about ready to cry when I smiled and walked back over to her.
"It's okay. You are pure and that is what happens when a girl has her first time." I kissed her quelling the worry that was crossing her face. "Don't worry. I will clean you up when I return if you want to draw another bath." I kissed the top of her head and smiled again and headed out the door. Just as the door was closing I saw her drop the sheet and pad her way to the bath. Her skin had blood caked on it that I would clean up for her. I had taken her virginity it was the least I could do.
I pulled the door shut and headed downstairs with minimal contact to anyone. I went into the kitchen and took some bread and more cheese. I also brought back some fresh water that I made sure was not laced. I did not need both of us staying more than the few days we had planned for. The rooms were quiet. It was early and no one was up. There where still customers here and I could see Talia and Esther had quite enjoyed their night. I shook my head and headed up the stairs trying not to spill the pitcher as I went. In the hallway on the second floor I spied a vase of flowers and in it a rose. I just wanted the rose. So with having only two hands I put the pitcher down and took the rose and put it between my teeth and picked the pitcher back up. I had left her alone already too long and the bath must be ready for her.
I re-entered the room and put the plate of food down on the table and the pitcher by the edge. I watched her as she was drawing circles in the water as she emptied another bucket of water into the bath. I stopped her from entering the bath by showing her the rose. Her eyes lit up with delight as she smiled. I helped her step up into the water. She remained at the edge just watching me and waiting.
I took the cloth and filled it with the warm water. I dribbled the water over her legs at first before I started to wipe away the dried blood. I could smell her scent as every pass I made the stronger it became. Her body was telling me that she wanted more of me than what she was willing to voice. I could smell the water and the drug that Beryl had used was very evident in it. I looked up at her. Her hair had gone back to silver and just the way she looked at that moment and the scent that she was ready for another release. My lower extremity sprang to life. A combination of the drugged water and her I knew I would not last much longer with out taking her in the bath.
"Don't submerge your head in the water. It is laced with a powder that makes you see things." I couldn't take it anymore. I put the cloth down and stripped out of my clothes. My member springing forward at just the though of getting in the bath with her. I leaned towards her letting her feel me against her. "I learned the hard way. I ended up here for a few days before I had my wits. But I would gladly spend days with you in this room if we didn't have to see what was going on downstairs." I pulled her in for a kiss to show her that yes I wanted her as much as she wanted me. "You submerged yourself last night didn't you?" She nodded as I sat on the edge of the bath and wrapped her around me. I thrust up ward and looked into her eyes. "Princess…"
She arched her back as it would not be long before she released. I was not far behind her as she cried out as I thrust again into her. I had my head at her breast level and just rested my head there and listened to her heart beat. It was beating so fast and her breathing slowed as she came down from her release.
"The water does things. Make you see things. Makes you want things. Makes you think of things. It can also make you forget where you are." I said to her not looking up. My head just listening to her heartbeat.
"Yes I did submerge my head last night. I was trying to block everything that had happened out of my head. Only I had thought of you and the rose."
"The day I had seen you come out of your tent I was mad that my brother got to have something that I had been looking for just handed to him. I was drawn to you then just as much as I am now. I was scolding myself. It was not the first time I had seen you. I had come in the middle of the night and I saw you sleeping. I was drawn to you then as much as I am drawn to you now. I can not give you to him. I will defy them. I will protect you from my brother."
"I know you will."
She pulled back from my head as she ran her fingers over my face. She explored the lines around my eyes and ran her fingers over my lips as I kissed them. She released herself from around me and stood in the water as I cleaned her again from our recent activity. The scent of sex overpowered the drug in the water as it filled my nose. I helped her from the water and watched her. As she dressed I quickly dressed. A knock on the door interrupted my gaze and she knew she had to change quickly. The red re-appeared as did the green eyes as she sat and started to eat. I looked at her and then at myself to make sure nothing was visible of what we had just been doing and then opened the door.
Miss Mina who was a bundle of energy bounced in as Kunzite followed her. I could tell by the look of my general he was doing some of the same we were doing the night before.
"Sereni- Serena did you sleep well?"
"I did sleep well enough for the place we are in." She said to her. She was not looking right at her for fear that she would reveal us.
"Will you both be alright if we go and scout the area again?" Kunzite asked. I looked at him and he nodded his head to head out the door. That meant he needed to talk. I smiled at both the girls and headed out the door with Kunzite. What ever he wanted to say he was itching to get it out.
"Yes we won't wander." Mina said smiling at him. I could tell she was happy and that she no doubt would be the one doing most of the talking while we were gone.
Once we had cleared the room and closed the door we could hear Mina talking but I didn't hear much from Serenity. I was sure she would have talked about what she had done last night but then again she was the Princess.
The sitting room was empty again. Morning was definitely here at Beryl's. The gentlemen that had stayed the night were being served again by their mistresses. I turned my head from it all and looked at Kunzite.
"Well my friend you wanted out what is up?"
"I know she is from Venus but I think I found my match."
"After one night?"
"It's not the water. I haven't touched it. There is just something about her. Something I am drawn to."
"I know the feeling." I said. I have had the same feeling for Serenity for years.
He continued to chat away about Mina and my mind started to wander. The noises from the other room were drifting in and it only made me remember Serenity and us last night.
I laid her back on the bed her hair fanning out behind her. Her eyes watching every move I made and attempted to match it. I hovered over her and kissed her. The blood rushing to every contact point I had with her. She didn't stop me and nor did I stop. I felt the back of her and pulled her towards me as she nodded and kissed me. I didn't wait. My clothing was gone in seconds. The moment I connected back to her she ran her hands over my chest as I pulled her to me. With one swift movement I entered her. Time and space where lost as she arched into me. It was just her and me in this moment. We were floating as moved within her. She cried out moments later as the moment of pure bliss reached across her face. I too cried out releasing everything that was meant for her.
We eventually moved from the sitting room and headed outside to the barn to check on our horses. We gave them water and fresh hay. About to step from the barn to head inside I stopped Kunzite as we stayed hidden inside the doorway. One of our guards was talking to Beryl. We were just close enough to hear the conversation. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the girls in the window trying to hide as well.
"You are telling me that the Prince is Darien and the Princess of the Moon that we have been trying to locate is in my establishment under my nose and I was not notified. The Wise One will not be happy. He has a plan for the princess and the crystal. We have to find the crystal it has the power to be able to rule the world. We need more energy, more people for the Wise One to wipe out the Moon Kingdom."
"Yes Queen Beryl."
"Find me the crystal. Find me both crystals."
"Yes your majesty." He had run off to his horse and took off down the gravel road. "Once I get the crystals I will rule the world. I will rule the Wise One. I will take the Prince who has infiltrated the kingdom and he will rule by my side."
I had made some movements with my hand as we moved to go into the house without making a sound. The guard was one of our top ranking officials. It hurt that he had been on the other side of the fighting all this time. He had come to the guard just to infiltrate us for the Wise One.
Arriving up stairs without a word to one another we finally sat down with the ladies. I explained who the guard was and what this meant going forward. We had to stay hidden. We would be staying together. Strength in numbers they always say.
"We could leave." Serenity asked.
"If we leave now we will draw attention. If we stay we have to be very careful. Kunzite come we will get enough food to tide us over for the evening and we will all stay in one room."
"Who is this Wise One? Is he the one who is in charge of all the unrest? Beryl said she would rule with the Prince that has infiltrated the palace?" Mina asked. When she had put it that way something had clicked. My so called brother was a traitor and what I had seen over the years made more sense now than ever before.
"Yes Miss Mina. He is the one we have been searching for. As for the Prince that has infiltrated the palace I am not sure about." Kunzite answered her when he saw I was deep in thought over my revelation.
We left the ladies as my thoughts had taken over.
"The infiltrated prince Kunzite is my brother. I know it. I can feel it. Just all the little things that had pissed me off to no end helped me to see it more clearly now."
"What are you going to do? You have to give the Princess to your brother."
"I can't do that. He will destroy her. We have to protect her. I am going to defy my brother and my father. If we have to run we will. If we have to live off planet then so be it."
He looked at me. Not just the small glances when I gave orders. He really looked at.
"You slept with her last night didn't you?"
"She was the one that haunted my dreams for so long. We both figured out who the other was last night."
"So you slept with her?"
"Don't start. Let's jut gather what food we can and hunker down for the night."
We returned with food and kept mum about what we had talked about. No need to worry the ladies any more than they were. It was bad enough we were all in the same room. The ladies told stories of when they were young and on the moon and when they all had to travel to Venus. We joined in the story telling and told stories of when we were younger and just entering the everyday battle training. I told them how I met each of my generals. I explained about the seasons we had and that summer was the best season by far.
I knew the darkness had fallen. Serenity was watching me as her hair color changed before our eyes. Mina was trying to hide some of the glow by pinning up her hair but it did not work. They were talking but I could not hear what they were saying. All I saw was Serenity blush which made me in turn smile at her. I had a feeling she was thinking of us last night. When she quickly spun around and broke our gaze I knew Mina knew what we had done last night. Serenity turned back around and continued to steal small glances at me as I was her.
I did want to travel as an Earth Prince I could go to the other planets as a visitor or on royal duty. I usually did neither. I was so concentrated on learning and being moody I never saw the world around me much.
I noticed that both ladies had curled up in the bed and continued to talk before it went quiet. I laid a blanket over both of them and looked out the window. It was peaceful outside now but in a few days it may not be.
