Henry strolled along the halls confidently as he looked for his wife. She had ignited his lust for her during their escapade yesterday and had been a constant in the back of his mind all day long. His meetings had been torturously long and had made little sense to his addled mind. He would never admit it, but his headaches really were getting worse. He could barely stand to sit still when the pain was the worst. Now that he was moving they had seemed to subside and he wanted his wife in the best and worst kind of way. He was completely enchanted by the fact that she had been so in control the day before. She had taken and commanded him as never before and he adored her for it. Where had this sudden power in the bedroom come from? Their exploring of different methods for the pleasure hadn't come into play and Henry was fascinated to explore with her more. What else would she be willing to do? Where else would she be willing to let him take her at? Yes, he very much liked this new and improved vixen of a wife.

Turning down a hallway by the library, Henry was quite pleased to see Catherine walking away from him with her nose in some book. As quietly as possible Henry snuck up behind her and pulled her back against his chest. Unable to see who had grabbed her, Catherine's immediate reaction was to scream, drop her book, and once his hand was planted over her mouth to stomp on whoever had grabbed her with the heel of her shoe.

Quite enjoying this little display by her and loving the feeling of her writhing against him, Henry laughed quite heartily before whispering seductively in her ear, "I should catch you off guard more often, wife. You are very desirable when you move frantically against me."

Stilling upon hearing his voice, Catherine spoke quite perturbed when he removed his hand from her mouth, "Catch me off guard again and I won't be responsible for my actions, husband."

Rumbling against her and now quite jolly from having caused his petite little Queen such a fright, Henry couldn't help but to tease her more, "And just what will you do to me? How would you punish me? Please tell me it would be very physical," Henry said lowly as he ran a hand to cup her breast, "In nature."

"I can assure you it would involve a lot of pleasure for myself and very little for you." Catherine said quite sternly as she tried to move from Henry's grasp.

"As long as I am the one causing you this pleasure, I will be quite happy, Catherine." He said as he whispered her name like a prayer and kissed the side of her neck lightly while sniffing her hair. She always smelled so delicious, like a rose garden in full bloom.

"Oh, I have ways of making you suffer, Henry." Catherine said mysteriously as she ran her small hand against his thigh.

"Yes, darling, make me pay." Henry groaned as he ran his hands down to grip her hips and pull her firmly against his growing erection.

"As you wish, my King." Catherine said before turning around in his grasp and kissing him deeply on his lips and cupping him between the legs.

Moaning into her mouth, Henry was quite enjoying his punishment until Catherine pulled away from him completely and turned and started down the corridor. Henry was quite perplexed now. Where was she going?

"Aren't you going to make me pay?" Henry asked as he started after her.

"I am." Catherine said flatly as she continued walking. "Your displeasure in this matter causes me great pleasure just as your pleasure of my fear is pleasing to you."

"But," Henry exclaimed as he caught up to her side matching her stride for stride.

"No buts, Henry. I have reading to catch up on." Catherine said determinedly.

"Well I'll join you then!" Henry said eagerly.

"No, that wouldn't be wise. I couldn't," Catherine said as a blush rose to her cheeks, "Concentrate."

Grinning widely and in a very mischievous mood, Henry just had to ask, "What exactly is so bloody interesting you would be so entranced, Catherine?" Henry asked as he snatched the book from her and held it behind his back.

"That is none of your business!" Catherine huffed as she placed her hands on her hips. "This won't change my mind, Henry."

"Maybe I want to read it as well, Catherine. Don't you want to introduce me to more culture?" Henry said with a smirk as he opened the book and started reading out loud randomly. " 'Now spread, indeed cleave asunder, that archway with your nose and let your tongue gently probe her yoni, with your nose, lips and chin slowly circling it becomes Jihva-bhramanaka. Let your tongue rest for a moment in the archway to the flower-bowed Lord's temple before entering to worship vigorously, causing her seed to flow' -stop trying to grab the book, Catherine, I am trying to read here." Henry said with a sly grin before continuing as he held it higher out of her reach as she desperately reached after it. "Now where was I? Oh yes, now this is very interesting here. 'Seize her feet and lift them high, driving into her yoni and pleasure her with vigorous strokes: this is Kulisha.' "

"Henry!" Catherine said pleadingly and now very flushed with embarrassment. "Stop! This isn't amusing at all!"

"Catherine, I have thought of you and our exercises all morning long and the council is quite a bore. Do let me have some fun." Henry drawled as he looked at her now blushing cheeks.

"Henry, we are in the hallway of all places!" Catherine hissed as she once again reached for the book before Henry swept her up in his arms.

"Put me down at once!" Catherine ordered harshly as she beat against his chest before being placed between his body and the window that overlooked the castle. "What are you-?"

Kissing her passionately, he cut off her objections as he pressed his body against hers. Fighting against him at first, Catherine made every attempt possible not to give into the way his fingers kneaded into her hips as he grasped her in his lust. She slapped at his chest, clawed at his arms and even bit him in her haste all to no avail. She was already too lost in her own lust for him to let him go. If he had tried, she would have wrapped herself around him and dared him to leave her in the state she was now in. Before he had ever touched her, she had already been quite aroused. That damn book was too much on the senses, and if he hadn't found her first she would have sought him out for the pleasure she now felt flowing through her body. She needed him and she wanted him. Gripping his jacket in her hands she tried to unbutton it as quickly as possible as Henry nibbled on the soft skin of her chest. Giving up on the buttons altogether, Catherine wrenched the last two apart from the weak material binding them together to finally view his shirt underneath. Reaching underneath, she felt the hardness of his male form as she scratched the tips of her nails across him before reaching into his pants to feel his throbbing shaft. Henry stilled against her as she cupped him deliciously and moaned into his ear.

"I need you, my King." Catherine purred seductively. "And you clearly need me. We must go somewhere so we can be alone and meet each other's needs more completely."

Henry gulped before exhaling slowly. They weren't going anywhere. He would have her in this very spot.

"We are alone, Catherine." Henry said in a low, sexy growl. "Let me pleasure you here and now." Before removing her hand from him and sliding her to sit on the window's small ledge.

"Henry, I," Catherine said breathily when he knelt in front of her and ran his hand under her skirts and along her calf. "Someone could come at any moment."

"I hope so, darling, or I would be losing my touch." Henry said with a dangerous smile as he pushed her skirt up a bit more.

"I meant we could be…caught!" Catherine gasped out, trying to speak quietly as Henry lifted her skirts to nibble up the inside of her leg.

"Isn't it exciting, Catherine? Thinking that I might have my tongue inside you while some servant comes upon us. What a different side of you the unfortunate soul would see and hear, my dear." Henry growled as he kissed the bend of her knee whilst drawing circles on her inner thigh. "Catherine de Medici, being pleasured by her King's naughty tongue!"

Catherine tried not to moan as he grabbed her thighs and brought his mouth further up. When he started stroking her core, she couldn't help the groan that escaped her lips before clamping them tightly shut.

"God, I love when you make that sound. Do it again, Catherine, only this time, say my name." Henry commanded as he pressed her core with his fingers and entered her minimally.

Catherine whimpered a bit and arched into his fingers, trying to drive him farther into her without success. "We'll be caught." Catherine warned lowly.

"I don't give a damn! I want you to scream my name, Caterina." Henry ordered as he nibbled her inner thighs and thrust his fingers deeply into her, this time eliciting his name from her wanton lips as she jerked around him.

Quite pleased with himself, he pushed her gown up more so he had a clear view of her naked lower half in the fullness of day. "Spread your legs a bit more, love. I want to see all of you in the light of the sun."

Catherine did as she was bid as Henry balanced her legs on his shoulders. Cherishing the beauty of the feast before him, Henry set her hips in his hands before dipping his tongue to taste her sweetness. He moaned as he finally tasted her promised land from whence her honey flowed. Catherine felt him throughout her whole body and started moving to meet his tongue as she gripped the ledge until her fingers turned white. Catherine could feel herself coming apart at the seams as he delved deeper and suckled on her bud. She screamed when he found it and wrapped her thighs tighter around him needing him deeper inside herself.

"I need you deeper. Henry! Fottermi! Now!"

Standing swiftly at her pleas, Henry freed his member front his pants and picked Catherine up. Sitting on the ledge, He brought Catherine down upon him slowly, feeling her warmth slowly as she enveloped him.

"Have I ever told you that you are more gorgeous when I am inside you than any other time?" He breathed heavily as he lowered her down until he was fully inside.

"Faster!" Catherine commanded as she slid up him faster.

Taking her hips in hand, Henry gripped her down harder and faster this time, catching the groan she made in his mouth as he kissed her. Setting their pace, Henry grinded against her faster and harder.

Suddenly from somewhere down the corridor a sound caught Henry's ear. Catherine so caught up in her pleasure continued to groan as she came down against him.

"Catherine, be quiet." Henry whispered.

"Now you want me to be quiet?" Catherine laughed.

"Someone is coming."

"Wasn't that the point, darling?"

"No, I mean someone is coming!" Henry said hurriedly as he lifted her off of him. "Come along, time to go." Henry said before grabbing her hand and pulling them toward the library and shutting the door behind them before Kenna and Bash strolled around the corner.

"Did you hear something?" Bash asked.

"I thought so..." Kenna answered.

They would never know what they had just barely missed seeing.
