The Act

The room was designed as a love suite. Candles outlining the walls softly lit the room and gave off a rose scent. The bed was gigantic and heart shaped. The red covers soft to the touch. Fate's strong arms held her above her love as she gazed at beautiful stormy blue eyes.

"Fate-chan." She whispered.

"Hmm."

"It's been a month and 10 minutes. Stop staring and do something. Now!"

She was so cute when she was being demanding and impatient.

"Right." Her head tilted down. She crossed half the distance before she stopped. Her lips hovered over Nanoha so close, but yet so far.

Annoyed, Nanoha grabbed her blond head and pushed down. They kissed and it was beautiful before Fate left her cold a few seconds later, her expression a mask of tight control.

Nanoha frowned. "What's wrong?"

"I can't…"

Stinging thoughts raced through her head. They had come so far endured so much. How could she be having second thoughts? Was it her? Was she inadequate? Did Fate think she couldn't take care of a baby? Did she not want a baby with her?

"Not when I'm being watched." She finished, melting away her worries.

Nanoha gently caressed her face. "Oh honey" She cooed. "Don't you dare." She hissed. "I've waited too long. And not even your delusional fantasies will stop us. Do I make myself clear?" She gripped her chin, holding her full attention.

"Yes ma'am." was the steadfast reply.

"Then why am I still waiting?"

Her steely blue eyes and her commanding tone sent a small shiver down Fate's spine.

"I'm on it ma'am."

"Stop talking and ravage me like the animal I know you are."

"Yes ma'am." She tried again. Her hand under her love's shirt slowly went up her stomach and stopped at the edge of her breast. She couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. She knew the doctor's machines were hidden somewhere in this room. Their cold metallic sensors sent feeds to the astute old man watching them from another room.

Their positions reversed. Nanoha straddled her and held her arms above her head.

"Were my orders not clear?" She demanded like a dictator.

"No ma'am." Fate answered with strong conviction.

"Then you deliberately defied orders?"

"No ma'am."

"No?" She spoke with derision. "Are you a liar now? Don't answer that" She placed a finger on Fate's lips, stopping the small movement. "From now on you exist only to please me. Any other thoughts are to be banished from your mind." She bound her disobedient wife's wrists to the bed with magic and got off her.

"Where are you going?" Fate watched her cute totalitarian wife walk away.

"Did I say you could speak?" She harshly spoke. She didn't even turn around as she rummaged through the dresser.

"No…" She quieted as Nanoha glared.

"You don't have a mind. You don't have choices. Your body. Your actions are controlled only by me. If I say you can speak. You speak. If I say bark like a dog. You bark like a dog. You don't question me or my actions." She crawled on the bed. Red eyes tracked her movement as she came to sit on her stomach. She was going to break the stubborn worries restraining her shy wife. She held a piece of white cloth between her hands. It came down on her love's red eyes and threw her into darkness. Nanoha bent down and whispered in her ear, smiling as she felt her shiver.

"Everything you are belongs only to me." Were her whispered words.

Fate felt the bed shift. She wriggled slightly in her bonds as a tickling sensation like ants crawled from her neck, down between her breasts, down her stomach, over her belly button, down her navel, and stopped at the edge of her pants. As this was going on she could hear her wife's voice in the background.

Nanoha slowly unbuttoned Fate's shirt. "Remember that only what I say matters. And I say right now, it's just the two of us. You're in our room. Lying in our bed. On our soft white linen sheets." Under her soft touch her love's firm abdomen, shaped from years of training, answered with slight tremors. She smirked. "Do you feel them? Speak."

"Yes. Ma'am." The words were soft spoken.

Her hands stopped roaming. "Is that doubt? Answer me." She growled.

"No! Ma'am!"

"Good." she smiled pleasantly. "Tell me what you feel right now?"

Fate took a moment to examine herself. It was drafty, but, "Warm. Ma'am."

It was a start, but it wasn't good enough. She wanted her raving mad and she knew exactly how to get her there. "I'm going to free your wrists. You will touch only what I say you can touch."

Fate felt the bindings disappear.

"Now undress me."

Following her voice Fate sat before her wife.

"I ca-" A pinch to her breast silenced her.

"I didn't say you could speak. Or to think of excuses like you can't see." Nanoha smirked at her wife's surprise. She took Fate's delicate wrist and guided it to her shirt then let go. "Undress me." She repeated her command.

Soon after her shirt left, which was slow for reasons other than her lover's blindness, she said "Kiss me and don't stop."

Following the trail of hot breath, Fate captured her lips. Minutes later, her lungs screamed. She ignored them and kept going until Nanoha finally broke the kiss for some needed air.

"Good." She said breathless.

Even though Fate couldn't see it, she knew Nanoha was smiling. She felt Nanoha's hand at the back of her neck as she was pulled down. Using her arms and legs for support, she hovered above her commanding wife.

"Touch me."

Her angelic voice filled her ears. She told her what to do, when to stop and continue. If she hesitated or was slow to obey she received a slap or worse denied access while her wife tortured her with sounds elicited by her own hand. She soon learned blind obedience and worries of a pervert doctor lessened. Her descent into primal need, made worse by a month's worth of celibacy, was rewarded with permission to roam over familiar planes where her hands painted a beautiful naked woman in her mind's eye. Her Nanoha's eyes, a bottomless ocean, whirled and sucked her in like Charybdis who swallowed a thousand ships. She could imagine herself drowning as she tasted the salt of her wet skin. Smelt a musky scent that drove her wild. Felt tingles run up her fingers to her spine and into her head.

It soon became evident that imagining was no longer enough. She wanted to see her shake. To see those hypnotic sapphire eyes. Not caring for commands, which had turned into mere sounds of moaning and groaning. She ripped the blind fold from her eyes exposing crimson pools to her wife who lost any semblance of sanity that remained.

It was rough at first as they vied for domination. But, lust and passion soon gave way to another form of love that was slow and gentle. A heartwarming emotion born from years of life shared poured from their chests through the veins that fed their limbs and colored their bodies with magic.

In the control room, machines came to life as the doctor, bouncing in his seat, orchestrated them with twists of knobs and switches.

Female forms glowed gold or pink. They grew brighter and brighter until they disappeared within the light. Thin blue and green beams fired from the walls. They were absorbed. Pink swirled into gold and began to overtake it.

The gold woman felt nostalgic in that pink embrace as she was reminded of her youth. Of the first wave that utterly subdued her as it brought comfort to her lonely soul, telling her someone cared for her. This embrace holding emotions that had grown and matured was ten times more potent. It could conquer anyone and had already taken her heart. She held a fond smile. Her beloved never could hold back. She was far too honest for self-restraint. Unfortunately, she wasn't that lost conflicted girl anymore. She had grown up. Carried desires far beyond Nanoha's imaginings. They quietly rested in her heart bound by heavy locks and chains for fear of their torrential power. But right now, she desired the freedom to express how much she truly cared. One by one the locks fell with a resounding thud. The chains clinked and strained as its captives trembled with increasing strength impatient to taste the rare moment of freedom. With the fall of the last lock, the chains snapped, her heart clenched, and they gushed out like a raging waterfall.

Within pink, the small gold orb suddenly grew wider and wider. It swallowed pink as it went until only gold remained.

Tears ran from Nanoha's eyes as pulsing waves coming in faster and faster crashed into her being over and over again. On some level she had suspected behind that soft gentle exterior rested someone wild and intense. She had always wanted to meet her. Now that she finally got the chance she wanted to run away. Her lover, convulsing just as much as she was, held her in place with gentle arms that might have been iron in the strength of their grasp. And she felt like she was drowning in her. It was frightening and exhilarating. Like that first time she flew and kept soaring higher and higher into the sky. When she thought she couldn't handle the intensity any longer. She reached a quiet peace. A moment where she felt they shared the same mind and body.

That was when there was an explosion that shook the building and cut the city's power grid.

In the dark, the doctor held a mad, insane, grin.
