Beyond the Stars Part 1 - Boe 3

by Awatere11

Ianto's family rules the poor planet, Jack's rule the richest. Middle planet of the Harts hates them both. An arranged marriage between the two families is under threat from the Hart family who love anarchy. A silly piece of fluff. Not canon, non compliant. A bodice ripper like a mills and boon set off world. Rated for violence and sex. "Flounce away stage left darlings" 1/3

Chap 23

As the flame died Ianto fell. Jack caught him in his arms and lifted him into a bridal carry. As everyone watched with disbelief Jack fled the great hall and carried his love to their private chambers.

Several guards had witnessed their magic and cleared a path, one even drew his ceremonial sabre to protect his future kings. Those who had realised the deceit of the oil turned on the young woman who had delivered it and her cries of Lisa's name as they dragged her away quickly led to Lisa's own need to be protected. The Hart family closed ranks as several Honour Guard of Harkness-Jones advanced on them demanding justice for their Kings to be.

As Jack reached the bedroom and the guards swung the doors shut behind them as he could heard the faint screams of fear as the families raged.

Jack gently removed Ianto's outer clothing and tried to remain calm. Ianto had stopped shaking and was moaning softly as Jack kissed him and murmured lovingly.

After a few minutes there was knocking and Jack reluctantly left Ianto on the bed and opened the door to peer out at the unwelcome visitor. Ianto's father, King Rhys stood outside the bedroom with a look of thunder. Before Jack could speak, King Rhys pushed past him and raced to the bed, reaching for his son who screamed with agony at his father's touch.

"No! Get away from my love!" Jack roared pushing the king back. "You pain him! He needs cool hands!"

King John and Queen Rose were entering and King John shouted with anger at the sight of his son warring with King Rhys.

"Cariad" a small voice form the bed drew Jack back.

As the parents watched Jack climbed onto the bed and showered Ianto's face with gentle kisses as he gently stroked his arms and hands.

"Mmmm, Jack?" Ianto opened his eyes and looked blearily at his husband.

"It's OK my love. It's all OK" Jack soothed with one hand stroking Ianto's face as the other rested over his heart.

"Love you" Ianto sighed as he drifted back to sleep and Jack sobbed with relief as he placed his head on Ianto's shoulder.

A guard flew into the room and fell to his knees. "My Liege, we have a problem"

"Yes, I know" John growled, "The Hart family are going to be lucky to get off this planet alive"

"No Sire. I mean the dragon"
