Collide
Solomon watched from his perch on a nearby wall as Haji set up his equipment on the beach. Haji had surprised him the morning before, not that he hadn't been aware of Haji's dominant position, he was the very first chevalier meaning he was stronger and much more powerful than the others and after what Diva had done to both of them. Solomon's mind shied away from that particular memory and he shook his head and smiled as he stroked the mark high on his neck that claimed him as Haji's mate.
"Thinking naughty thoughts Sol?" Haji's mental voice was as smug as his expression as he regarded Solomon.
"How have you become so accustomed to that?" Solomon inquired knowing the other could hear him clearly despite their distance, the bond had almost scared him out of his skin the first time he had heard Haji inside his head and that had been a mere few hours ago.
"I enjoy being inside of you," was the response and it took all of Solomon's concentration not to blush. Instead he stretched out across the wall body arching like a cat beneath the heat.
The claiming had taken a lot out of him and he was still somewhat tired, however it had been years since he had seen the sea and he hadn't wanted to pass up an opportunity to listen to Haji's music.
Resting his head on crossed arms he watched as Haji settled before the distinct sounds of the cello rang out, rolling like waves soft and yet sad with the slightest undertone of anger permeating the encroaching dusk around them. Haji's passion for the music was almost visible in the air around them and Solomon allowed himself to sink into the feeling, the bond writhing through his mind allowing him his first glimpse of the complexity of his mate's soul. Closing his eyes he had begun to grow accustomed to the music when it suddenly changed. Laughing delightedly he glanced down at his mate as words drifted through the bond.
"Fly me to the moon; let me play among the stars." Haji sang
"Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter or Mars," Solomon returned
God this playful side of Haji made up for all the dark times they had experienced, Solomon had not begrudged the other man a second of the care he had showered him with but there were times when he had wanted, needed…
"You are all I long for; all I worship and adore." Haji finished each word ringing with truth and Solomon allowed his feelings of content and adoration to flow backwards through the bond, lips quirking at Haji's soft chuckles.
They remained there each simply revelling in the feel of each other as the music wrapped them in a cocoon that erased the world around them. It was not until the sound of approaching footsteps jolted Solomon that he bothered to scan the area. Growling low as the familiar scent of Saya approached them, not moving he watched as the girl approached obviously in an attempt to see Haji only to freeze when she caught sight of him.
"Like little red riding hood," he grumbled
"It is a good thing this particular wolf is only interested in blonds,"
Solomon smirked as he rose, glancing once at the queen he almost laughed when she took a step back, ignoring her he descended the steps and sank down at Haji's feet. The bond had settled his feeling towards the other queen and though Solomon was still angry about what she had done, he could not be angry at her completely as her abandonment was what had resulted in his relationship with his mate.
The footsteps continued haltingly until Solomon turned and looked at the girl an eyebrow cocked in question
"Y-you didn't say who you were," she began "before at the school."
Solomon turned away as Haji paused setting the cello against one leg as his other hand dropped to Solomon's hair.
"If you wish to know I shall tell you." Haji stated
"Saya!" a voice cried
Solomon sighed and stood, turning to see a young man running towards them.
"What are you doing?" he shouted
"Kai you don't understand," Saya began only to be interrupted
"I don't understand? You don't even know them, for all you know they could be stalking you or something I mean twice in two days?" Kai retorted
Solomon cleared his throat at that "Not that this little spat is not amusing because I assure you it isn't," as the boy opened his mouth Solomon glared essentially silencing him "Saya as apparently this young man has a problem with our acquaintance, it would be best for all if you left."
"How the hell do you know her name?" Kai snarled reaching out as if to shove him, only to have the offended hand caught in an iron grip
"Do not touch him!" Haji growled the anger displayed upon his face seemed to shock Kai, as he tried to yank his hand away. Haji scoffed and released the young man before stepping backwards.
Solomon sighed and easily hefted Haji's cello in a hand watching as the young man's eyes widened at the casual display of strength.
"That was foolish," he remarked glancing at the boy identified as Kai "We would rather avoid this completely however as much as it irks me, our path and Saya's are very much entwined that being said.."
"Be careful of your actions, or you may live to regret them." Haji took up his words, tipping his head to Saya he reached out and grasped Solomon's hand and they walked away leaving two stunned teenagers behind.
