I awoke to the sound of swords clashing. Opening my sapphire blue eyes, I rose from the bed and to my feet. I was still sore from the previous night but I didn't care, because I soon heard my lover, my Darkness, cry out. Sprinting out of Dark's cave, I found him and Zelda battling it out, however, Dark was holding back. I could see it in his crimson eyes that he didn't wish to harm the princess, at least for my sake. When Zelda disarmed him, she readied to end his life; however I wasn't going to accept that. I broke into a full on sprint. "Stop! Zelda, don't hurt him!" I begged. Her attention snapped to me and her face turned red, as did Dark's. I didn't find out why until I reached my lover. I was still completely naked! Mortified and humiliated, tears filled my eyes, however, they weren't filled with sadness. The tears were filled to the brim with exhaustion and confusion. Dark threw me his black tunic and I pulled it on. "Zelda why are you here?" I asked her with a calm look.
"Why? Because this filth kidnapped you and nearly destroyed Navi!" She growled, not removing the tip of her slender sword from Dark's direction. "Come back to Hyrule with me, Link…" She held out her hand to me, however I shook my head.
"No, Zelda." I pushed the tip of her sword away from Dark and I stood in front of him, protecting him. "I am saying with my lover." The princess' eyes widened and she looked ready to vomit.
"I-I'm sorry, Link, but did you just-"
"Yes, Zelda I did." I said, cutting her off. "Dark and I love each other and last night we became one and mated. I don't care if you think of me as a traitor, I am staying here. This is where I belong. I will come and visit you though…" I offered her a smile and to my surprise she accepted it. Zelda approached me and hugged me tight. I could sense her pain; however, I soothed it away. "I love you as a sister, Zelda…I always have…and I always will hold a special place in my heart for you…" I felt tears slip onto Dark's tunic and I frowned. She pulled away and looked to Dark.
"Take care of him. If you don't, I'll see to it that you get hanged. Do I make myself clear?" She asked with a smirk. Dark returned the smirk and bowed at the waist.
"As you wish, Princess Zelda." The Princess of Hyrule then got up onto Apona and waved as she galloped off.
"So," Dark began with a wild grin. He scooped me up and started for his home. "Why don't we have a round two?" I knew exactly what he meant and I giggled.
"But I still hurt from the amazing session we had last night!" It was true, I could hardly stand without being in some sort of pain. Dark settled me down on his king-sized bed and kissed me deeply, oh gosh he tastes so delicious! His tongue entwined with mine as he claimed me again. He then broke away though and looked at me with a serious look in his eyes.
"In all honesty, Hikari…do you want to go back to Hyrule?" He seemed scared about what my answer was. "Don't lie to me, because I'll know…I want the truth…"
"…..Yes." I sighed. "I do want to go back…" Dark's eyes filled with tears and he turned away. "Then…then you can go." I stood up, silenced.
"Wh-What!?"
