Oh, What Strange Changes We See!

[BadInfluence]

Jacob always had a way of impressing her, showing her just how amazing he was in some new way, every day he pulled some new trick out of his hat... Some feature of his that set her on her heels, made her laugh or smile, or sometimes broke her heart... She was reminded with each new facet just now new they were together, still learning about each other, and how being together changed facets of themselves. It wasn't bad by any means but it went without saying that it was new, interesting, and sometimes? Just a little scarry.



Watching him command the room, he did it in a way many people couldn't, he wasn't bossy or overpowering. He was friendly, likeable, yet keenly intelligent. He had the soul of a teacher, even now she could so easily see him finding those in the crowd so desperate to learn, pin pointing them and giving them just what they were looking for. Such a rare talent, an incredible gift, and she had to admit... She could watch him do this all day. Still, the way a certain other person was watching him with an interest that made her uncomfortable, now that... She wasn't too fond of. What could she do though? They weren't in a relationship, that was just a plain fact, they were lovers who were in love... They hadn't labeled it or anything like that, they didn't even have a chance to, it was rushing ahead of them like a speeding bullet and they could only hold on for the ride at this point... So really, she couldn't just say to this woman, this Dr. Elizabeth to back off. What could she say? 'I don't appreciate the way you're looking at my lover?' Yeah... Sure... Cause THAT'S going to go over faking swimmingly... Just the bull at the manse they went through was more than enough to show her, flat out, that if they came out together? Things would go south so fast the world's axis would probably shift a few degrees.



She was grateful for the chance to speak, it gave her mind something else to focus on, to worry about. As it was her head was a mess, concern and worry about her future, her heart aching with strings of jealousy she really couldn't place... She wanted so badly to be aloof, to not let it touch her, like she could just... Let it go... But no, it sat there under her skin, a splinter starting to fester and ache... So rather than let her mind and heart rule her, she jumped straight in, putting on a facade of confidence she didn't feel in the moment... All she knew was that Jacob was driving her silently, his words of encouragement and faith echoing in her soul, and she wanted to be worthy of those words.



Taking command of the floor in a way very different from Jacobs, she radiated an aura that was compelling, not violent but it had a sort of charge to it... Like static electricity cracking in the air, just waiting to snap and pop, to light up... Thank God while she was sick she had gotten a chance to prepare these things in the first day, she wasn't sure if she was going to speak but if she decided she would, she wanted to have it all prepared before hand... It was just who she was. She had referred to herself as Doctor Rose, not a slip up she was aware of, as Jacob had insisted she refer to herself as such weeks ago when joining the program. Did it matter if she hadn't taken her tests yet? In all honesty she had as much skill as almost any doctor in the room, a caring nature, an ability to stay calm in a chaotic situation... Wasn't that all that mattered, really? Wasn't everything else under the eyes of God and Man just paperwork and formality?



She continued on steady as the sun across the sky, she kept that perfect pace, not too slow or too fast... Asking Dr. Faelon and Dr. Anikin to take the questions for her while she prepared the slides, after all they had taken a bigger part in this than she herself had... She had only turned the key, but the lock, it was all theirs. Separate it didn't amount to much but together they had opened the door to a rather incredible treasure... The chemical components, the minerals and such that made up the human body, that was something she had thrown in at the end for Jacob... She had compiled it from several different books, double and triple checked the math before putting it up, to show just how chaotic the human body was... But how nothing technological or scientific was in it, it was made of the very same things found in the world around them, explaining that the cures should be made just the same... For every action, there is an equal and opposing reaction, so for every ailment there was a cure. Men, being made of nature, should seek their cures there.



It was the perfect way to end her part and lead back into Jacobs area, giving credit to both Dr. Faelon and Dr. Anikin before stepping back, taking a seat... And it was as soon as she sat down the nerves came in and kicked her so hard she was trembling. She had put on so much bravado there, but without the drive pushing her through, she felt weak and utterly washed out... She took the glass of water with shaking hands but a smile, nudging Kit in the arm playfully as they began to take notes again, and her usually perfect handwriting? Was shaky, jittering on the page like someone shivering with cold, but she took those notes none the less.



When it was time for a break she nearly melted into her seat, she felt more than just a little sick, realizing she hadn't eating anything... Sure, great way to start being a mom, forgetting to eat... Smart... Real freaking smart, she chided herself, sighing and resting her head in her hands for a moment. Was that why she felt so sick? Why she was shaking? She half heard the words he spoke about what was going to be coming afterwards, only to discover that the same woman who had been looking at Jacob like she knew EXACTLY what he was like without his clothes, that she was a woman who specialized in the field that had always made her sick...



Shit... She had forgotten in all the love and romance, the pleasure and joy of being with Jacob, that in this field? She was expected to understand and handle child birth, from conception to delivery, and just the idea of it... The smell of Blood... Screaming and pain... Labored breathing... Like a slap to the face reality came in and cut her with the knife of truth, the reality of her condition, and what came next... All of a sudden she was washed down with a fear that kicked her nausia into high gear, her head span, and she had to hold completely still... When he finished talking, when he called her name to help, she blinked a touch to ground herself... Starting to stand when she heard that far too innocent and melodious voice use Jacobs name in such a familiar way... Well, you know, that was sort of a benefit in a way... That jealousy and posessiveness came bubbling right on back to the surface and it helped quell a lot of the anguish and confusion she was feeling just a few moments ago. "Dr. Anikin couldn't possibly tie up someone as important as you, Dr. Grace, do please ignore us. You needs must rest up befiore your speak..." Yeah right... Step off! Honey couldn't be sweeter than her words, the tilt of her hair, that smile... Oh when she wanted to? She could look like a pure little cherub, all golden and lovely, why a unicorn couldn't compare in purity and innocence... Jacob might need to watch himself so he didn't swallow his tongue, considering given last night, he was coming to learn real fast she was far from innocent in bed.



The claws came out then, not like she was surpirsed at it, Jacob was like a glorious Lion in a field full of cubs, it was no surprise she'd have to face off a few Lioness herself. It just went with the territory, and in the end of the day, Elves or not? Nature is nature, women were genetically predispositioned to find the perfect mate, do so everything to keep him there to create and then provide for children... "I have to confess I doubt you know everyone, Dr. Elizabeth, or you'd have to be quite old... Many of the doctors here have been in practice for over sixty years after all, which would mean you would have to have been in the practice for a Very... Very... Very long time." She cooed sweetly, oh butter couldn't melt in her mouth, and she didn't just save a silver spoon... She had the whole damned heirloom silverware set. You know, the really fancy one with the fish fork and ALL that good stuff... "I find professionalism, even among old friends, is important to show one's manners and respect... He calls me Dr. Rose, and I call him Dr. Anikin, as it should be among people who take their rolls... Seriously." Oh yeah... If Elizabeth thought she'd just roll over and show her belly? She was majorly mistaken.



Jacob urged Elizabeth off and she just smiled sweetly at the woman, waving her hands in a shoo shoo motion, moving her off. "Really, Dr. Anikin is quite correct, you truly should relax. Why, if you know every doctor here, surely you must be quite popular with the other Senior.... Staff." She paused, not long enough for anyone else to notice, just long enough for her to realize the slight space between words. "They must be just about dying to catch up with you, after all, when you know So many people... Well you must get around.. to it." Again, that perfectly timed pause, those subtle little things... Impossible for an observer to notice, if anything she seemed just as nice as the sunrise in spring, absolutely charming and nearly perfect in every way... A Real Mary Poppins type of woman... The last dit about having to catch up? Oh hell no. "Oh, I'm sure he would love to, but we have a dinner date tonight to go over the transfer of my studies to Dr. Barathon at his house... It's very private, what with the good doctor's wife just passing, but perhaps another time?"



Yeah, good luck...



She smiled at Jacobs comment, his compliment, but she kept a touch of space between them... That ideal footage between professionals who were close but not intimate... Looking to Dr. Faelon after the nurses were gone she snorted just a bit with a brow raised. "Certain? Let's call a duck a duck, Dr. Faelon, she's going after Jacob like Napoleon went after Russia..." It had been Napoleons obsession, to conquer Russia, to take over the treasures of the Tsars... And just like Napoleon? She was going to freeze that bitch out like an arctic winter, and she would see her fail just as the Emperor of France did. "I was surprised she managed to keep her clothes on, she looked like she wanted to drag him behind the curtain, so unprofessional..." She was irritated, a touch moody, and starving... Not the best of mixes, to be sure. She leaned against the table and waved to Dr. Faelon as he left, only to hear those bars of music and given where she used to live, oh she knew it... And her head snapped to focus on Jacob like a shark smelling blood in the water.



"Really now?" She asked without saying much more, and when he took her hands in his, she took them before giving them a soft squeeze... Only to let them go and punch him in the arm... Lightly, mind you, but it definately showed how she was feeling. "So should I invest in some waterproof slacks for you? Because it looks like Dr. Grace wants to piss all over your leg to mark her territory." She said, hands sliding to her hips, the arrogant cock of them to the side. She could, and was, so god damned sexy when she was pissed off. Her eyes snapped, her cheeks flushed, her breasts heaved... Her temper was better than any aphrodisiac as she turned her head to the side, flicking her fingers through her curls, that proud tilt to her chin. "That's going to complicate a lot of things... How far did you two get? And just how hard do I have to pretend I'm not going to be bothered? I don't know if I can fake not being madly in love with you with someone like her sniffing around you." She said with her lips in a beautiful little moue, that sexy pout, her arms crossing over her chest... Inadvertently lifting her breasts up so they almost spilled out of the suit jacket top. "Because I'm pretty sure I'm a very jealous creature Jacob, only when it comes to you, but it's true... I just wanted to shove my shoe in her mouth for her to chew on the way she was looking at you, like she could just eat you up. Drives me batty!" She exclaimed as she began to pace the room, nervous energy and just plain nerves before she felt the room sway and she had to stop... Closing her eyes for a moment before she sighed. "This is going to be a lot harder than I first anticipated..." She shook her head, a bad idea as it set the room spinning and she had to reach out to take a hold of the table to keep form dipping, a frown on her face for a minute. "I really need to eat... I think that speech took a lot out of me... Where can we go?" She'd ask and what ever he advised? They would go...



Once in the privacy of that carraige though, sitting down in peace, she felt much better. Maybe it was just the stress? She couldn't tell, all she knew was she had missed him all morning, and that woman... Made her feel like she was on unsteady feet... She might be reading too much into it, but she'd been around enough women to know what that look was, what the words were... Did she have time to worry about it? Would she waste what little privacy they had with each other in this moment on those thoughts? No way! She looked up at him with so much love in her eyes, and behind that warmth, a heat of desire, the admiration of a damned good looking man. "You look AMAZING! You're always gorgeous but that suit today... It's not even fair... You look so good in it all I want to do is take you out of it..." She leaned in for another kiss, longing and warm, so much desire packed into it... "Sneak away with me tonight... We'll have Dr. Barathon cover for us, say I'm sick in bed and you've gone out with someone else... Didn't catch the name and all that..." She asked, leaning in to kiss along his jawline... Down his neck before his collar stopped her, back up to just lightly run her lips along the shell of his ear, but never going too far... Just enough to make him ache... "That abandoned cathedral... The one high up on the mountain... She breathed against his ear softly, the scent of that rich, almost forbidden perfume mixing with the scent of her skin... "Meet me there... You bring the blankets and I'll bring the food... We'll picnic under the stars and talk about everything and nothing at all..."

The room had all but emptied..only a few remained.. namely him, Dr Faelon and his medical students, Kit, Elizabeth and a few strays that were still organising their bits and pieces.. he had called upon her to give him a hand with a few books.. to get the work that had already been covered out of the way.. that way the final few speakers would be able to move about without excess.. though it would be then that Elizabeth would step up and request that she help.. he went to reply.. telling her it wasn't necessary.. though it would be then that Rose would enter the discussion..

he glanced up from the pile he was making.. catching sight of Faelon there looking right amused.. before he would glance between her and Elizabeth.. he cleared his throat.-. I'm certain you have more important things to look into Elizabeth.. Rose is correct, I couldn't possibly tie up your lunch break with simplicities such as this.. Faelon collected a few of the books then.. deciding it was probably going to have to go this way.. that the chat between those two women wasn't going to end in a nice manner.. he almost winced when the talk of age came up.. and of her having a Doctor title.. admittedly that was his fault, he had told her to use it even though she wasn't yet certified..

Elizabeth bristled at the age remark and her hands rose to fall upon her hips there-.. Thats really quite disrespectful coming from a student doctor, My age is no ones business, I do know all the doctors on the seminar sheet, and all the seniors that are in attendance today. If I didn't train them myself then I trained along side them I am pure sun elf, I am in the prime of my life. As for using titles, yes of course you are correct professionalism is important, it settles along side status.. however.. among friends.. I use forenames, I have known Jacob a very, very long time. The same goes for Henry.. -she motioned across to Dr Faelon-. They call me Elizabeth when we arent in a professional setting and right now.. -she glanced around the hall-.. Id say this was pretty cosy.. so how about you pipe down little miss, before I have a few choice words with the senior staff about your accreditations.. and of course.. lack there of recommendations..

-her gaze lifted as she looked to Jacob there.. he took a breath-.. I think its time for everyone to take a breather.. before some things are said in the heat of the moment that are clearly not meant.. -he glanced between her and Elizabeth.. before he picked up a few more folders and he moved to make it his way out of the theatre.. down through the curtains at the back.. Elizabeths brow lifted at the dinner date remark.. she was already half way out the door at the time-.. I doubt you have a dinner date tonight.. its the seniors dinner.. and it always runs late..so I am guessing you are mistaken.. -she slipped out letting the door close quietly behind her.. he was sliding the folders down into the archive boxes as the two of them entered the small room..

he heard the little digs.. the comments about Elizabeth and then the humming of the music.. his brows furrowed and he exhaled.. Faelon soon left the room and he reached out to take her hands.. telling her just how incredible she had just been.. he cleared his throat when she brought up Elizabeth again.. and he shook his head-.. How about we dont sully the memory of your public debut in such a fashion mm?.. you did an amazing job.. you controlled the audience.. you were informative, intelligent..-but no.. she wasn't about to let it go quite so easily.. he pressed a finger to her lips then-.. Its only going to complicate a lot of things if you let it.. it is only going to bother you If you let it Rose.. If you really want to know.. I will tell you.. but honestly.. it was so long ago.. it doesn't even register as a memory anymore..

-he turned to place the last few items into the box before sliding the lid on.. she took a turn for the worst then.. he watched her move to hold the table for support and he came to her side immediately.. his hands falling to rest there upon her hips.. steadying her-.. are you alright?.. -he was concerned.. he was worried as fuck.. and would be whenever anything like this cropped up.. especially after what she had just been through.. she spoke about needing to eat and he nodded-.. We will go somewhere else.. I dont feel like sitting in the lobby today.

. -his hand slid up her back then.. to rest.. before he would help guide her out one of the side doors.. and back into the carriage.. the doors closing in.. leaving them fairly private for at least a little while.. he called out to the driver to take them to the portside cafe.. it was a bit out of the way but it meant they were less likely to be interrupted.. the carriage took off with a little bit of a start.. he was watching her closely.. making sure the colour was returning to her cheeks.. -.. So let me get this straight.. you rushed to me this morning.. telling me I needed to eat.. that it was important.. and.. you havent been looking after your own self?.. tut tut.. -he shook his head.. chuckling a little.. -.. You need to take care of yourself mm?.. -she complimented him.. telling him he looked amazing in his suit..his cheeks coloured a little there.. that little awkward smile he seemed to get around her whenever she spoke him up appeared.

the two of them shared a kiss.. sweet, soft and filled with longing.. his hands rose.. fingers cupped either side of her head.. holding lightly at her jawline.. tongues touched.. danced and tasted.. before they would inevitably break away with shaken breaths..-.. mm.. you know I cant Rose.. not tonight..I have the seniors dinner.. remember the one I was telling you about?.. there was a students one.. and one for the seniors.. you can pick which one you wish to attend.. or you can leave it entirely.. its up to you.. -he paused.. his forehead came to rest against hers..-.. I could possibly come meet you after.. though it would be quite late.. -his lids half closed when she began to trail her lips down along his neck.. a soft sigh sounded-.. sounds heavenly.. -he whispered in response to her little abandoned cathedral idea.. and it did.. it sounded magical.. just the two of them.. a space to share.. -.. but like i said.. very late.. so ill leave that up to you.. you just tell me what you would like and its yours.. -he kissed the tip of her nose just lightly..the carriage arrived..

it was a small cafe with a view of the ocean.. everything was white washed.. it was clean and crisp.. decorated with shells and star fish.. with boat paraphernalia.. he stepped out first and helped her down the step.. before he would usher her inside.. it would be warm.. a big open hearth gave the interior a sweet glow.. it smelt like freshly cooked bread and cakes.. of sandwiches and coffee.. it was just about empty except for a few couples dotted here and there.. neither of which turned their heads.. they were off in their own words.. namely each other..

he pulled the door closed and guided her through to the back.. nearer the large open windows.. she could get some cooling sea air that way.. and still be warmed by the fire inside.. it was a booth.. the back of it to the cafe.. its opening to the window.. completely private.. he waited until she sunk into the soft cushioned seat.. before he would come up to side beside her.. -..take off your shoes.. put your feet up... this place is designed to just.. let go.. to just relax.. and thats what you're going to do.. -he watched and waited.. till she was resting with her back to him.. he slid his arm around her.. his lips to her temple.. before handing her the menu so she could choose.. he himself ordered tea and some hot herb bread.. something small and basic.. afteral he'd eaten not that long ago thanks to her.. -

She was bristling internally, that much went without a doubt, not that you would be able to see it on the outside however. She kept a polite, calm demeanor about her, and the words she chose? Were similarly polite, and to anyone on the outside, clearly flattering... The doubting of Elizabeth knowing all the doctors, saying she would have had to have been quite old, which she clearly said she couldn't believe. It was a compliment, but someone, ooooh someone was definitely ready for war... True, her intentions behind it were hardly samaritan, she'd definately pricked at her, testing the responses... A woman who didn't care? Would have laughed, taken the compliment, things of that nature... Elizabeth however had gone full up in arms, bristling and shooting back, which in the end? Told her everything she needed to know.



Rather than be offended though, she just smiled and tilted her head, regarding Elizabeth with incredibly sharp and calculating eyes. "So you really do want him then... I thought as much with how you watched him during the presentation... And it must be quite bad for you to twist up a simple vernacular into an insult where there was none." She just smiled then, simple and sweet, a shrug of her shoulder... She played it cool as a cucumber, snow wouldn't melt on her, turning back to the files and sorting them properly into the correct stacks. "Talk to them if you like, I have nothing to hide. I've gotten here on my skills and talents, with more than a little hard work and dedication to my studies and to the field, but if I may?" She asked, looking over her shoulder as she finished up the last few files on that side of the table. "I'd advise against it, it just makes you look petty to go after a young trainee, especially given I've actually not said a word against you. If you recall my exact words, I was complimenting you, so... Yeah... Just a well meant word... But you'll do what you want."



That was a good sign though... She had in those moments, found her old self, her real self... The one not fogged or fucked up by nerves, fatigue, and general hunger. She told everyone she was fine, and in a lot of ways she was, but that 'fine' she was noticing? Had a horrible habit of deserting her when she needed it most. She mentioned she and Jacob had a dinner date, and she did, though obviously her head was still a touch fogged... "Oh, that is tonight, isn't it? Days are a touch mixed up." She said as casually as anyone could, another shrug of her shoulder as she packed up those folders, taking up the remaining pens and pencils and spare paper in case it was needed. Elizabeth had left then and Faelon, unable to resist adding his two cents to the pile, it was all she needed to confirm what she already thought. Naturally she couldn't help rounding on him, for some reason today her emotions were pretty quick to fire, which if he recalled? Was incredibly rare for her... She was always so calm and quiet but today it was like a while different person in so many ways, especially regarding him, and their time together.



"Oh, please let's don't do that, yeah?" She said on a sigh as so much of that emotion just bled out of her, like ink on a page with too much water, blurring and nearly vanishing rapidly. "I was testing the waters, and now I know, it's that simple. She wants you, you two have a history, and I can't honestly compete with that. Don't think I want to." She said with a sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose, the room was starting to sway again and she knew that maybe... She wasn't as fine as she had said she was... Just how much of it had been fueled by the desperate want to be there for him? With him? She swayed and he noticed, coming up behind her to stabilize her, and at his question? She shook her head. " No... I don't think I am, actually..."



That took a LOT for her to admit, the two of them heading out into a carriage, almost instantly melting into his side... "In my defense morning sickness is nothing to shake a stick at... The idea of even trying to eat anything made it all start right over again. I figured it was better to go in dry than risk showing the front row my last meal in liquid form." She said wryly before she gave into her own temptations, his smell, the cologne on his skin... The way he looked... Even the way his voice sounded just melted her, it would always give her that spark, so much so she could be a foot in the grave and she'd pull out of it for this.



She slowly began to kiss him, fingers tangling, heads tilting... Lips touching and tongues dancing, so warm and sweet, just a hint of spice... The kiss had to end of course and he reminded her again of the dinner date, why they couldn't go tonight, at least not right away... "I swear I can't keep that in my head... Like there's a hole in there it keeps slipping out of... I'll go, I might not stay for long, but I know you stressed how important some of those associations can be..." She said before she paused, leaning in to kiss along his neck, she couldn't resist it... She needed this right now, if only to remind herself of what she had, though... For how long? Elizabeth was beautiful, had a good name and public optionion on her was that butter couldn't melt in her mouth, plenty of charity work... Her own money and a family name that was spotless... How the hell was she going to compete with that? The baby wasn't guaranteed and she didn't even want to try and put that sort of thought on their baby... It wasn't a bargaining chip.



The little dine in place was cute, and it had that sort of vibe where it just helped to melt the tension in her shoulders, letting her breathe a little easier... "This place is so cute..." She breathed a bit easier as they walked in, heading towards the back entirely, a private little corner just for them... She did sit up, sliding her heels off and putting them on the soft suede seat, leaning against him and getting quite comfortable... "Bossy creature, aren't you? Normally it's me telling you what to do for your own good..." She teased as she took the menu up, looking over what was there... She hadn't eaten meat a day in her life, it just wasn't her forte, and for her entire life it was too expensive to boot... But that stew Garafin made... It had chunks of beef in it and she was realizing that her body was craving protein...



"This is so weird... But I'm virtually drooling over the beef and barly soup with some rye bread and whipped honey butter..." She was almost drowning on her own saliva before she handed the menu back, ordering an ice water with plenty of lemon in it, trying to settle a stomach that couldn't make up it's own mind. While they waited she ran her fingers along his arms around her, her head on his shoulder, just looking out at the ocean... She would never get tired of it, land locked creature that she was, the wide expanse before her... Seeming to stretch on forever, glittering like diamonds under the sun, the white frothy tips of the waves... "You know... Elizabeth might be just what we need..." She said with a pause, a part of her rebelling still, another part was explaining just how rational it was. "We were hoping to find a way to throw the heat off of us... She can do that... God knows she wants you more than the fat kid wants the last slice of cake." Hell she was sure Elizabeth would sell a kidney to get at him uninterrupted for an hour. "I just worry feelings from your past might come up and... complicate it... I know you love me, and I love you, but we're also so... Terribly new in all of this... I'm not stupid or cocksure enough to think that you won't waver... You're handsome and smart and with the two of you having been lovers..." She said with a shrug, turning to her side a little bit, sliding down his chest so her head was in his lap... He couldn't see her too clearly then which was something she hoped for, it would make her emotions harder to read, her internal turmoil her own to bear. "It's a scary thing, loving you... I thought at first just loving you from a distance would be enough... And it was, for a while, but now... I can't ever imagine going back to that. I want you to be happy, even if it means without me at some point, but I can't pretend like my hearts not desperately involved in all this now."



Voicing her concerns, her fears, at least they could get to the same page on it together. "All that aside... I don't know if Elizabeth will play nice either. She got pretty rankled and I don't think she's the typo to pass up a public humiliation if it presents itself... You may as well prepare yourself for it, I doubt it's going to be pretty, or fast." Seriously, should love ever be this hard? It seemed everything, from day one, was trying to keep them apart. Crazy ass nurses with vendettas, misunderstandings, and now ex-girlfriends. They would have to emply the Tryst 24/7 if they wanted any chance of growing together outside of serious adversity...



Their food came and she sat up, wiping slightly at her lashes before she'd pull her coat down properly, clearing her throat a touch before taking a few drinks of that water... Ok... Now THAT was nice, she ended up finishing her while glass and having it refilled only to drain it again before she would start on the soup, going slowly and carefully... Not wanting to make herself sick.

..he had helped her into the carriage.. the seminar seemed to be going incredibly well so far.. people seemed entertained and educated.. the Senior staff appeared to be intrigued with the new developments.. especially her talk and her research.. he had a feeling she was going to go very..very far.. she just needed to be pointed in the right directions.. and there was plenty of time for that.. the carriage door was drawn closed.. the two of them together in private silence.. he watched as she sagged against the soft cushions.. he was worried.. how could he not be after all she had just been through.. that coupled with the fact he just found out this day that she was pregnant with his child.. how was her body coping with that and with healing and restoring her back to where she should be.

.he made a quick joke about her not eating.. after all the fuss she went to to make sure he himself had.. he nodded when she mentioned morning sickness-.. mm.. yes I get it.. well.. I do to a point, ive seen it in a lot of the ladies I have treated over the years.. and then of course with my family.. pregnancy is a big common thing in Arvandor.. I will get intouch with my Mother tonight, see if she has a remedy for you.. something natural that will help ease off some of the symptoms so you can at least get some food into you.. -he drew her across to him.. to curl up against him.. he just wanted to be closer to her.. to be near.. her almost death had frightened quite a few years off him..they shared a kiss.. and many, many touches.. the two of them breathing in each other.. needful.. desire.. if they had more time why they may well have made use of that small carriage cabin.. but no.. the clock was ticking.. he just held her when they spoke about the seniors dinner.. the one she curiously kept forgetting about.. -.. Well like I said the offer is open to you.. you dont have to attend, especially if youre feeling poorley.. Im certain there will be another time and another way to introduce you to the Council and to the other senior doctors.. your health and well being is a lot more important to me

-he brushed a few stray locks behind her ears then.. she began to tease him.. trailing his lips down along the sides of his neck.. his lids grew heavy and he sighed softly.. she knew just what to do to him.. knew just how to make him melt.. every action she made.. every word even innocent would send him off on forbidden tangents.. the two soon arrived at the cafe then and he helped her into a booth seat down toward the back.. it was a bit more private and he felt thats what they both needed right now.. -.. it's nice.. I used to spend a lot of time here studying.. getting away from all the racket that came from the University and the Hospital.. if I went missing.. this is generally where I ended up.. -he brushed his lips to her forehead as he passed her the menu.. he decided on something light.. just a herb bread and some tea.. her on the other hand wanted something a lot more specific..

he had a bit of a laugh.. giving her a gentle squeeze.. the waitress headed off with a smile and a nod..-.. You're body is making requests thats all.. -he rubbed her arms gently.. reaching up to remove his glasses as he just looked out over the wide expanse of the ocean.. the two of them just relaxing.. just finding comfort in each other.. his brow rose though when she said Elizabeth might be just what they need..-.. Im sorry.. have we met?..-he laughed a little giving her a nudge..though he would let her continue.. explaining just where she was going with it.. she spoke on how badly Elizabeth seemed to want him.. but her worry was there on what if his feelings were to resurface and complicate matters.. he cleared his throat.. his fingers still gliding up and down her arm juts lightly-.

. It was a very, very long time ago.. now.. I dont know about you my dear but.. a teenage boys feelings are vastly different to that of an adult.. -he tilted his head.. looking down to her there-.. you have nothing to worry about I assure you.. Elizabeth has always been .. well this way.. she's got a bit of a reputation for going after the Doctors with money.. -his brows furrowed-.. I know what she wants.. I'm not interested.. and I'm not single.. as for thinking I might waver.. mm.. no.. thats not how I do things Rose..I am honerable and loyal to a fault.. -he was of course referring to Cora.. if that told her anything it was that when he was in a relationship he never.. Ever strayed.. even when he knew things were going awry.. she shifted then..

sinking down so her head was in his lap.. he began to comb his fingers through her hair then.. just lightly.. softly.. all in an effort to keep her calmed..-Worrying about how things might go wrong doesn't help things to go right.. -he took a quiet breath-.. None of this should be hard.. I unfortunately made things difficult when I ..well.. -his brows furrowed and his cheeks coloured a little-.. when I kissed you that first time.. I struggled with that.. internally for a good few days before I couldn't take it any longer.. I knew it would make things difficult.. I knew it had the potential to ruin everything.. for both of us.. but I went ahead and did it.. in hindsight it was quite selfish of me..

-he brushed his fingers across her cheek.. caressing along her jawline-.. but I wouldn't take any of it back.. If we can just get through this next rough patch quietly then we are home free.. if we can toughen ourselves up.. add a little more resilience.. it will be all worth it.. I assure you.. I cant wait to be open with you.. to be just relaxed and not have to worry about who see's and who's starting a rumour about what.. or when.. I just want to be with you Rose.. I hold no doubts.. my heart has love for a certain few people.. and you are amongst those..in fact you hold the lions share.. -his hand came down to rest over hers.. intertwining-.. Dont worry about Elizabeth.. ill handle that.. and Faelin will no doubt step in as well if she starts acting up.. she's an incredible professor.. and has helped out the wider community in So very many ways.. but if she starts getting catty I wont stand for it..

-the waitress appeared with their food then, placing the hot herb bread down.. the stew for her.. the water and tea.. -.. Now you need to eat something.. -his hand patted her stomach just lightly-.. lest someone else starts kicking up a stink about it and then you end up on bed rest.. it was hard enough keeping you in that hospital for that amount of time let alone 8 months.. -he slowly guided her to sit up.. watching as she drank down the water before he turned back to his own meal.. tearing the bread open as he took a few bites.. -.. I was sitting on wether or not I should tell you.. I didn't want to upset you this morning when you gave me that incredible news.. -he took a drink of his tea there..-.. that Nurse approached me.. the afternoon that we.. well.. -he cleared his throat-.. anyway.. and she gave me your chart.. she was quite eager to make sure I understood that you had miscarried..

-he tilted his head-.. I so desperately wanted to go back to you.. to talk with you.. but I knew timing was not on our side.. please know that.. you can tell me anything.. anytime.. if you ever need me.. you simply have to get word to me.. I will come as quickly as I possibly can.. You mean the world to me.. -his words were heartfelt.. and honest.. he finished his meal .. drinking down his tea.. thankful she was taking her time with that soup.. he wanted to make sure it was going to settle in that stomach of hers.. his mind wandering over how to deal with the Elizabeth issue ..

before they would leave the cafe and head back toward the seminar.. he would pull her to his side.. a little brazen, he'd reach to cradle her head.. to tilt it as his own lips found that sweet spot where her shoulder met her neck.. he'd nip and suckle it.. tugging upon the skin with his teeth with his lips.. before blowing his breath across it-.. You know.. after the Q&A this afternoon there is about 3 hours before the Senior dinner.. -his free hand slid across her stomach then.. lifting up a little to dip down into the opening of her blazer.. to cup and fondle one of those sweetly rounded breasts.. a thumb brushing its tiny pink bud-.. think you could meet me?.. Ill organise a location.. somewhere private.. quiet and out of the way.. if we arrive separately it shouldn't be an issue.. -he gave that sweet soft globe a gentle squeeze then.. -.. I mean.. if youre interested.. if not you could always go back and study some more.. I'm sure I can handle matters on my own if thats the way it has to be.. mind you id much rather have someone to play with.. what says you?.. -he would lift his lips up from her neck then.. that blue green gaze looking down into hers.. just lingering.. there was almost a spark of mischief there as the carriage came to a slow stop.. they were back at the seminar.. a knocking on the door from the driver to alert them to the fact-.

. mm.. guess Ill have to wait and see.. Ill give you the location sometime this afternoon.. I wonder if Ill be left alone.. to deal with the aftermath of your earlier teasing.. -he shot her a wink as he stepped out of the carriage.. helping her down the steps before he stepped back into the venue.. it wouldn't be long before the hall was filled with people once more.. each seat taken.. so many races and colours.. it was incredible how harmonious it all was..he stepped up to the front once more to applause.. bowing his head in thanks.. forever gracious for the support.. -


Our final speaker for this afternoon is Professor Elizabeth Grace, a renounced medical doctor and best selling author. She's the Senior Professor at the Arvandorian University of Medicine and a Senior member of Medical Science Council. The topics she has chosen to eloaborate on today are in the Obstetrix field of Midwiffery. I know there are a lot of young students in this hall right now that are looking to further their careers by going down this very needed path. Please put your hands together and give her an incredibly warm welcome. -he clapped for her as Elizabeth rose from her seat and moved onto the stage.. he himself stepped down.. allowing her to have it completely..he settled to sit just across from Faelon then as the Professor began her presentation..

she was as was expected.. perfection.. her voice was smooth ..her speech clear and precise.. she and Jacob were literally peas in a pod.. very similar in many ways and Rose could probably tell where he got a lot of his mannerisms from.. his teaching from Elizabeth.. she spoke about conception and pregnancy.. the rates and percentages.. where Doctors and Nurses could help and hinder.. the pros and cons for taking on such a role and how stressful it could be when things went so wrong.. it wasn't all dark though.. she spoke about helping Mothers.. how Women had to stand together.. how they had to unite as one strong force.. there was clearly a place for the male doctors yes.. but when it came to midwifery.. how a woman tended to make expectant mothers feel a bit more at ease.. a bit more comfortable.. the audience reacted to her just as well as they had with Jacob.. laughing when it was funny.. furiously scribbling notes when necessary.. the images on the screen of child birth were a bit graphic.. and might be a little too much for Rose.. no one else in the room bat an eyelid though.. -


E: I have something special for those new students today, -the door opened at the left then and a woman came in heavily pregnant.. waddling like a penguin but smiling none the less .. This is Stella.. she's nearing her eight and a half month mark.. everything up until now has been pretty text book.. no issues.. nothing out of the ordinary.. -stella came up to the stage then and she layed down upon the stretcher that was made available.. the hospital gown she was wearing was split just beneath her breasts.. so her belly.. that big round globe was on display.. so many aww's coming from the crowd around her.. even Kit was smiling silly-..

However it would appear.. as we grow nearer and nearer to her due date it would appear baby isn't behaving in a way we would like.. -Elizabeths gaze wandered the audience then-.. Stella has given us express permission to help her out here today and I figured it would be an incredibly educational instruction tool.. Let see.. -she rubbed her hands together-.. How about we get Kit.. and Rose up here.. -she nodded.. - Ive been watching you both the entirety of the seminar.. and I feel a bit of hands on knowledge is always welcome.. please join me up on the stage.. -the audience applauded.. Kit just about sprung out of her seat.. grabbing you by the hand when she did-.. The issue is that Stellas baby is in the breach position.. baby is facing the wrong way.. now before they engage.. we want to be able to manipulate the position.. In your studies thus far this would have come up in the very least once.. please.. demonstrate how this would be done..

Elizabeth stepped back.. watching.. along with around about a thousand other eyes-

[BadInfluence]

Her body was a rubber band but... Maybe she was asking more from it than she should... She'd only been sick once as a child and that had been a fleeting thing, never to be repeated so she wasn't prepared for everything that came with it, let alone how to handle it. She'd always been so gung-ho, full of energy and strength, able to take on anything that was thrown at her. That had just been her life, the usual way she lived it, but now? Now she was recovering from a very deliberate and lethal poisoning, she had even died for a full ten minutes, so you'd think she would be taking it cautiously... Careful and very ginger, even more so now considering she was in the family way, but she just couldn't help it... And now? Now she might be paying for it with how her head wanted to sway, her stomach tending to randomly rebelle, and her brain just couldn't seem to hold onto certain things... It was all so alien and new to her, but in her head, she had this idea that she had to be there... To be beside him.



Maybe she was afraid of letting him out of her sight... What if Ric tried to go after him? If he couldn't get her, Jacob was the next target, it just made sense... Who would protect him then? He changed the topic her mind was running on when he teased her about food and she told him quite simply that the morning sickness so far had her walking very gingerly around food and the like. When he mentioned asking his mother about it though she literally shot right up like a cork from a bottle of champagne. "No!" She almost yelped, shaking her head from side to side, waving her hands back and forth. "Oh my God no! Are you kidding? Jacob we JUST spent a weekend in a cabin, locked up together and given a ton of lust drugs, stuff your parents put there no less! If you ask about that she's going to put two and two together!" Surely he was aware of that? It must be slipping his mind or he wouldn't have said it, because it was just too plain obvious that if they went that route, his whole family would know she was in the family way. As it was? She was still struggling to come to terms with it herself, and probably would for a while, and the last thing she wanted was his family eyeing her waist line.



They shared a kiss then, soft touches, and yeah... If they had ten minutes... But sadly between their high end outfits, the public nature of the city, and the cab for hire?... They knew it wasn't going to happen... As much as they might want to, at least... They spoke about the dinner and the whole thing was like a greased up pig in her head, she couldn't seem to grasp and hold it, it kept skipping around and slipping right out of her hands. "I think it's the nerves... Despite what you thought of my interaction earlier, I was so nervous I thought my spine might snap from the tension..." She had gotten through that with a calm demeanor by strength of will alone... If anyone could have seen beneath the image she protected, they would have seen a woman who was virtually vibrating with nerves, stomach as twisted as a pretzel... "I'll go I promise... I want to make those connections. I just wont stay too long, I'll take an early night and head back to Dr. Barathons, work on teaching him how to make the tea you like..." She teased at the last bit before she leaned on him, only to give into the temptation, to kiss along his skin... It was hard not to, like holding a match to tinder, but to keep hitting it with a spritz bottle so it doesn't catch... Just smolders...



Thankfully they arrived at the reasturaunt before either of them got too hot under the collar, and it was such a cute little place, just what she needed... What they needed... She toed her heels off and put her feet up as she leaned against him, hearing him say he used to hide out here, her lips curling into a smile. "That was the library back home for me... When I couldn't sleep or when I had a day off from the tea shop or the hosital, I'd hole up in there near the radiator, just soak up the warmth when ever it was cold or raining..." They both had their little secret spots, she had the library and the greenhouse back home, he had this place and... Where else? Would he reveal more to her as time went on? Or would they have to try and build up from the moment they met? "I like this... When you tell me about yourself, things you used to do before we met... I still want to know all about you, no matter how far we come as a couple, how much our lives change... You're always going to be the most facinating thing in my life." But would life give them the chance?



They were always getting hit from all sides, though at least they could both say that had been from the moment they met, people had been pushing them around... Scissors and knives trying to cut the red string of fate that bound them together, like some outside force was just doing all they could to keep them from progressing, to kill the sprout of their love... To salt the earth... She sighed softly as he kissed her forehead, mentioning her craving for meat, specifically red meat... Something she'd never been interested in before a day in her life... A little while later she mentioned that Elizabeth might be a blessing in disguise, hearing his words, the tease as he nudged her a bit and it was just what she needed... Breaking out into a smile and a giggle she shook her head, turning a bit to nip at his shoulder, her fingers finding his to link together... Explaining why it might be a good thing, but her fears too, her concern that things might just... Come back up...



When he mentioned teenage boys she made a face for a moment. "Ugh... Now that you mention it... But wait... You were a Teenager?" She asked, not in surprise that he had ever been that age, hardly... More so that Dr. Grace had gone after him at that age! "Holy mother of Cougar... Cradle robbing doesn't come close to covering it I think..." She said with a shake of her head, rubbing her forehead for a moment, trying to digest the fact that he'd been taken advantage of at such a young age... Even if he wanted to do it, there was such a thing as too young, and he should have been after girls his own age... Not old enough to be his grandmother... When he confirmed that she tended to go after men, doctors with money she actually, physically groaned and shook her head. "Oh my God... She sounds just like Suzzy from back at the whore house... A good looking older woman who specializes in introducing teenage boys to the ways of you know... Sex." And if she were anything like Suzzy, shit was going to be both outwardly fucking hilarious to watch her chase Jacob around like a little duckling, but internally a wrack of hell for her. When he said he wouldn't waver though... It helped to settle a good chunk of unease for her, something he could physically see, the way her shouldered lowered... Seemed to relax... "Thank you... I know you're faithful to the end but I needed to hear you say it... She's beautiful in this dark, mature sort of way, if your into that sort of thing she's like a perfect cup of tea..." But Jacob said he wouldn't stray, and he hadn't broken a promise to her yet, he'd never dropped his word...



Shifting down with her head in his lap, she confessed that she didn't know why this was so hard, why it seemed like they were always fighting something to be allowed to stay together... "I know... Worrying about tomorrow takes away from today..." She knew better, and normally she was the FIRST person to say let tomorrow sort itself out, cause there wasn't anything you could do in it for one and two it was never guaranteed... Though when he said this was his fault? She sat up and looked him dead in the eye, and he could tell from the flash in her own he had totally said the wrong thing, but that flash mellowed out... Turned warm... "I wanted you to kiss me." She said flat out, reaching out to take his cheeks in her palms, holding his face so he couldn't turn away. "Even if you hadn't kissed me Jacob, I would have kissed you, there was no way that was never going to happen. You can't go and martyr that one my love, fate doesn't work like that. Besides?" She asked, sliding her hand up to caress behind his ear, over that lovely tattoo. "Are you going to tell me, not once through it all, that you didn't hear her or feel her? That you knew in your heart and your soul that it was what was supposed to happen?" She wasn't sure what to say about a lot of this, or even do, but she knew one thing? That when they had been at that Cabin? Hanali herself was behind it all, she meant for them to be together, to fall in love. All of it had seemed orchestrated to line them up, and here they were, but no... It wasn't easy...



"We will... I know we will... We just have to bear through it for a while... But they say nothing worth doing is easy, and if it is, it's not worth doing..." Which was true... After all in the end? Look at him and Cora and how badly it had gone... But it had all been easy for him... Maybe the gods were mixing it up so he wouldn't feel a sense of Deja Vu? Or maybe they were testing their love so they could look back and know there was never any doubt at how strong it was? "Oh I can wait..." She said in a suddenly teasing matter, her hand sliding down to rest on his shoulders, a terribly wonderful minxy grin on her lips. "Imagine... While we're using Elizabeth to shove the wolves off our trail, I might find some sweet young man to do the same for me, maybe go out for a few dances... A dinner or two..." She was playing with fire and she knew it, but she figured Grace would shove Jacob into a few of those settings herself so really, it was only fair play... Thought the bit about the lions share? That did make her heart swell more than a few times, her fingers coming to link with his again, her head over his heart... "Let her... If she wants to be catty it's just going to look bad on her... You've seen me in action, I can take very good care of myself against my own sex, and who knows? It might just show a few people who resides under the pretty facade..." What could Elizabeth do, really? Even if she came at her full tilt, so what, it just gave her a chance to shine under adversity...



Thier food had arrived and she drank more than a bit of water, something about that lemon did wonders to calm her stomach, allowing her to look at the stew with a bit of anticipation. When he patted her stomach lightly, the joke about the hospital she just laughed and shook her head. "You couldn't do it and we both know it... Besides the hospital food is about as bland as putty... Play-doh has more flavor." She said with a smile and began to eat her stew as he mentioned wanting to talk to her about something, a nurse with the charts, and she set her spoon down with a sigh. "I must have been a horrible heart breaker of a man in my past life or something, I swear the female species is after me like a bad rash..." Shaking her head she looked at her stew, waited a few moments to see if she could eat more, finding she could... So she took another few bites before she spoke herself. "Nurse Silver, right? She pinned me last night in the hall before my shower..." She said with a sigh and a roll of her eyes. "She was trying to threaten me and it was just like back at the manse. She backed down and left a little while later when she realized I wasn't going to give in..." She totally glossed over the fact she threatened to shove a soap bar up the womans ass... But hey! Not everything need be related...



She reached out for his hand, the other around the spoon as she ate while the other held his hand as he spoke, nodding her head. "I didn't want you to know about any of it... I didn't know if they would stay or go, with all the poison and the stress, plus the tonic I had taken... I didn't intend to get pregnant, I took every step to avoid the situation, I didn't want a baby..." She was being honest there, and if he remembered, he'd know exactly why the idea of pregnancy and childbirth put more than just the fear of God in her... Though even after that was said, there was a soft, serene smile on her lips... The way her hand drifted down to lightly caress the flat expanse of skin... "Now that it's here though... I'm scared but... I'm also happy... Like this little critter went through hell, everything that could be tossed at it, and it's decided nope... They're sticking around... " She said with a small laugh and a shake of her head again, turning back to her stew to finish it off, wanting to get a little more cuddle time in before things sped up too fast all over again... "I know Jacob... And if I ever keep anything from you it's because I love you and I don't want you to worry. I promise I will never ever lie to you about anything though... I just might not tell you right away... As for this... We can't place any bets on this baby yet, we got a couple of months before we'll be out of the woods, so we just have to wait and see..."



They had to leave before they got that chance, but because of the extra time none of her food was rebelling, so it leveled out in her head. She leaned against him in the carriage before he was the one to start it now... Her head tilting to look up at him, moving as he guided, his lips along her neck... "Oh Christ..." She breathed, her heart quadrupling in speed, her fingers digging into the seat as he played her sweet spots, goosebumps spreading out all over her body. "Oh yes... Jacob.." She trembled oh so slightly as he talked, speaking about this three hour break, his hand sliding up over her bare stomach... To that barely lace clad breast... Fuck he was talking, right? She breathed, trying to focus on his words but his fingers cupping her breast, teasing her nipple... It was like playing with her clit, a new and direct line down between her thighs, making her gasp and arch as if his hand were between her thighs. "Yes-... Yesyes- Anything..." She breathed, trying to focus so hard on him, but in the end? She gave up... Gave in... Sliding one hand between her thighs while her fingers slid into his hair and pulled him down for a hot kiss, feeding him a white hot moan as she went stiff against him... Didn't take more than a few seconds, did it? Maybe a perk of the pregnancy, all that extra blood flow, certainly livened up a few things! She was blushing, her cheeks flushed, but it looked all rather becoming on her... Sliding her fingers out of her pants she caressed along his bottom lip, leaving the taste of her there, the scent of her on his skin... Moving in to kiss his lips all over again, the dipping of her tongue into the corners of his smile, sucking on his bottom lip before nipping it lightly and letting go. Before she got to tell him yes they were at the hall and she had to pull her jacket down properly, smoothing her hair and calming herself down, but his tease... Oh he had her giggling beautifully back there as she shook her head...



When they stepped down he would find something pressed into his hand that he had offered to help support her with, her fingers closing his hand around it though she pretended like she hadn't done anything, walking with him into the venu once more... Returning to their seats and the seminar starting all over again. This time it was Dr. Grace speaking and there was no denying where some of Jacob's skills were learned from, though the topic was the worst possible for her, even if she was taking notes she wished she was anywhere else... It just made so many memories come up and terrorise her, so much so that they were showing on her face, the way she was paler... Her body tight as a bowstring... Seeing the woman coming in for the demonstration made her stomach roll but thankfully no nausea, no vomit... The stew would stay...



She blanched when she was called up to the stage to demonstrate, and Kit looked over the moon, where as she? Looked as if she were going to the gallows... Kit was utterly thrilled to be there, demonstrating some amazing bedside manner, chattering away happily as she recited what she had been learning, whereas she herself? Looked at the belly before gently placing her hands down on it, feeling for the outline of the fetus, for the positioning... She had studied, she read an entire book on it... And while she was obviously pale, she was incredibly proficient, helping keep dear Stella at ease... "Well, they're not only breech but they're sunny side up... So this little one needs turned face down as well..." She said, speaking to Kit for a moment, full authority and confidence in her voice. "Kit, will you hold her hand and press into her cervix for me? We need to make sure the head is properly aligned or this little one will turn right back around..." She said with a smile on her face, looking at Stella with a wink. "This one's a big baby... You really took care of yourself through your pregnancy... Now I hate to say it but you're going to feel some pressure, and it's pretty uncomfortable I know, but we're going to be fast." She said, showing Kit how to go about it, what to feel for... And she would begin to turn the baby over, applying pressure to the woman's belly, and yes... It hurt... It was uncomfortable, but it was important to make sure the baby could come out naturally... It took her a bit longer than she wanted to admit to, so much fear inside her was making her double and triple check her work, to make sure it was done correctly... Poor Marry... She had died because the baby was breech... All that blood...



She begin to feel the room sway but she held on despite it all, finishing the turning and then rotating of the baby, getting the nod from Kit before she would double check behind her, making sure the baby was right where he needed to be... Head and face down... "Mrs Stella is also about two centimeters dilated..." She said with a smile and took her gloves off, disposing of them properly as she waited on the side for orders, looking at Elizabeth like Yeah... I know what you tried to do... And you're going to have to get a LOT craftier to get this girl! Of course this was only for a moment, a flash in her eyes, and that was it...



what she gave him

[Deleted]

..the carriage ride had been an eye opener.. he teased her.. and she upped the antsy and tormented him right back.. her taste.. her scent would remain there upon his lips.. his tongue.. assaulting his senses for the rest of the day he was certain of it.. she pressed something into his palm as the two of them headed back into the seminar.. his fingers curled inward to hold it.. to clutch it.. it would be time for Elizabeth to shine.. he gave her a striking introduction, speaking up her qualifications, her status and titles.. before stepping to the side allowing the main floor to be taken.. he listened .. well mostly to the talk about obstetrics.. on conception, pregnancy and childbirth.. he knew the ins and outs of it all.. he'd studied it extensively ..though his eyes did wander over the centre..

watching all the new student doctors just drinking up the education.. the eagerness in their eyes.. it made him smile to see such interest.. he opened his palm then.. finding the gift she had left him.. that small delicate silver ring.. it was beautifully carved and no doubt had many hidden meanings.. she was good with that.. his smile widened a little further.. though he quashed that.. not wanting to draw attention to himself.. sliding his hand down into his pocket.. before reaching for his clipboard.. the ring then upon his finger.. he would look up with a blink when he heard Kit and her being called over.. his hand rose to rub against the back of his neck.. ohh this could be bad.. it could go so very wrong.. but he was hopeful everything would be ok..

he held no doubt for her skills.. her talent.. her knowledge.. but he knew she struggled in this area..he placed the clipboard down and watched on curiously.. cautiously.. ready to cause some kind of distraction or diversion if it looked like things were going south..she looked a little pale... a little out of place in comparison to the bouncy bubbly Kit.. but the two of them together handled Stella and her breech baby perfectly.. hearing her response about the patients dilation he nodded.. -.. Very Impressive ladies.. -he called out.. many of the other doctors including those most senior nodded in agreement.. this of course made Elizabeths lips thin out considerably ..hell the Professor even managed to break the pencil she had been holding..

Elizabeth helped Stella down from the table there and walked along side her until they reached the end of the room.. he moved back to the lectern- Well today has been a long one, I will be forever gracious that you were able to sit with us for the time allotted.. we will have a quick Q&A session now, once that is over you will be able to leave. There is two events on this evening, one for the students at the University, and then of course one for the Senior staff at the Glenn .. -he nodded-.. Ill call upon our speakers for the day to return to the stage.. and then we will open the floor .. -the house lights shifted.. not focused solely upon the stage now.. it was much brighter..

The speakers all lined up.. Faelon, him.. her of course.. Elizabeth and the other three Senior medical staff.. the usual questions popped up first.. all to further bits of education certain students had or were undergoing at the time.. Faelon fielded a few.. even Jacob himself did much the same.. very thorough..precise and incredibly accurate answers.. a small group of newer students called upon Rose then'


Rose, if I may.. there's word that you are going to be staying on here with Dr Barathon, and leaving the tutlidge of Dr Anikin.. is this a wise move?.. whilst they are both incredibly good Doctors and Teachers, to leave study mid way through and change it up could be frought with unnecessary difiiculty yes?.. The Doctors we have worked under as a group have all had their own set patterns for teaching, but yet are still very different Are you not worried it might put you back at square one?


it wasn't a question to torment or poke fun, they were genuinly curious.. it was possible there were more than one student in that room that might not be quite fitting in properly with their current instructor and were thinking about changing, but were faced with the same worries.. all eyes settled upon her.. waiting on her answer..


Dr Anikin: Are you going to take on more students?

-he nodded.. leaning back against the table there as he slid his hands down into his pockets-.. I am taking on Kit for the remainder of this round of study, in the new year I will be contemplating taking on more.. Its something I have to look into, and see just how much I can take on personally.. My life outside of medicine is pretty full. This is my career, it is and will always be my first love.. I couldn't be without it..and sharing that knowledge has always been a dream of mine.. If you are interested in further study under me, then I ask of you to send word via letter to me, I just need to know why you want to do this.. I want to know what you already know and well I just want to know a bit more about you. If we can find a way to jell , then it makes the studying so much easier.. Thankyou

-he nodded as the student sat back down.. several in the room furiously scribbling dwn notes, something told him he'd just opened the flood gates to possible bags and bags of correspondence ...Faelon fielded a few more questions.. they spoke on natural therapies, on what he thought on crystals and plant oils.. the politics at play written between the lines of medicine.. on abortion, and unnecessarily prolonging life..


A small gaggle of well dressed young women were whispering amongst themselves.. before one.. a sweethearted brunette stretched out her hand.. waiting fo attention.. he glanced toward her and nodded.. pointing for her to speak-.. You had a question Miss?

'Oh yes, we were just wondering.. Are you single Dr Anikin?'



-several heads in the room turned about.. quite a few blinked.. several scoffed at the utter nonsense the question held.. and then of course there was girlish giggles that followed.. Faelon went to step forward-.. I dont think thats necessary.. Lets keep it to medical questions mm


Though before he could finish his sentence Elizabeth called out 'No he's not single.. next question please'..



The room fell silent.. he blinked.. lifting his head as he glanced toward her ..Oh the whispers that started then.. well if Rose wanted a cover.. she just got it..


One of the senior Doctors stood up and slammed his cane down upon the stair.. the sound echoed through the chamber.. quietening everyone back down.. he cleared his throat.. nodding his head-.. I think thats a good a place as any to close off.. I wanted to thankyou all for coming along today, for the ups and downs of a very successful medical seminar, Its been incredible to see so many familiar and new faces amongst the crowd.. I certainly hope to come across you all again very soon.. Dont forget about the events this evening, please travel safe.. Have a good rest of your day ...-there was a round of applause then..

as movement in the room quickly took over the sound.. so many were packing up their tings.. getting together n small groups to talk.. and of course gossip... especially about this apparent coupling between the heart throb bachelor Doctor and the Star Professor.. why it was a perfect match surely.. he packed up his folders there.. Faelon was having a bit of a laugh with it all..for the most part he had shut everyone out.. every single sound.. just sliding folders, books and pens into the archive boxes before sliding on the lid.. he held a couple of small envelopes then.. calling over Kit and Rose.. once he could get their attention over all the noise..


Incredible work ladies, you have managed to catch the eye of many members of the Senior staff and council.. -he held out the envelopes-.. These are your personal invitations to the Seniors Dinner, Your attendance has been requested, but it is not compulsory.. The dress is formal, it will include a dinner and then of course mingling with Senior staff..It will be an incredible opportunity for you both to introduce yourselves.. to make connections with certain members of the medical community that you might not otherwise.. but.. like I said before.. it's not compulsory.. it can be an intimidating affair.. its very formal ..-he would watch as Kit would go to open the envelope and he would reach across to stop her-.. mm.. no.. I think these would be better opened in private, the invitation is very exclusive.. I dont want to cause trouble amongst those that were not afforded the same.. if.. you get my drift.. -he glanced toward Rose there.. hoping she kind of read between the lines.. -.. Maybe Ill see you there.. If not ill catch up with you both tomorrow.. Enjoy your afternoon.. and evening ladies.. -he nodded.. turning as he picked up the box he had just filled.. before he stepped out.. trying to get some distance between himself and Elizabeth regardless of the rumours that were flying about..

If Rose opened her envelope she'd find the invitation as he had said.. it was formal, requested a certain form of dress.. had a time.. an address.. but then there was also a small slip of paper.. with another address.. It was for a roof top apartment.. with instructions on taking a carriage a few places before hand.. she had to organise herself a dress for the dinner should she decide to go.. shoes.. accessories.. he had asked her to pick him up a tie.. if she wouldn't mind.. something that would match her.. but yet be subtle.. and then to meet him as requested.. there would be a key.. only one.. along with two words.. 'im waiting' ..

the roof top apartment was atop an incredibly high building.. it was part of the University estate so having her on the grounds was expected.. she was a student afterall.. he had entered the building so quickly after the seminar that no one would have even noticed.. she'd need to get her stealth on a little though.. thankfully the fact there was a big alcohol fuelled party going on on the other side of the complex would help ..a lift would help her get to the very..very..very top floor.. so much glass.. the facade on the building was clearly elven.. it was crisp and clean.. sparkling with the softtest of gold and silver accents.. the apartment itself was medium sized.. it was a bedsetter..polished wooden boards beneath her feet.. a big incredibly comfortable looking bed overlooking huge floor to ceiling windows.. and the sounds of a shower running..soft music playing.. the same song he played for her back at the Inn that night.. that which felt like So very long ago..

She had been incredibly disappointed in Dr. Grace for the move. After their first run in when she had seen so clearly that claws were going to come out, she thought they might be a bit more subtle about it, she had after all stated quite plainly that her previous movements were pretty damn obvious... But this?



This was way below the belt, and she had to wonder if she had asked someone about it, or if this was all a sort of crazy weird twist... She doubted that it was just accidental though, something like this doesn't exactly come out of thin air, which means someone told her... But who? She could name off three who would be splitting their cheeks with smiles just to get at her... But what if it wasn't them? What if it was someone else? Would someone have said something about her curriculum accidentally? There were a lot of questions and she held on to them with a furious desperation, it gave her mind something to focus on, something outside of her greatest fear and the horrors that came cropping up beside it.



She was thankful Kit was with her, that would do wonders to cover her own nerves, to shift the attention to the much brighter and bubblier of their duo... Letting Kit shine with her excellent bedside manner and she? Could focus on everything she learned in the textbooks... And first hand... She had to keep blinking her eyes, flashbacks to her hands bloodied, the smell of amniotic fluid and salty copper tang... Screaming and crying... Begging... She remembered so much of that night in vivid clarity, but the textbooks were where she focused her mind on, the things she had been learning in the last week...



It, blessedly, went off without a hitch. She could only imagine how painful it felt to have someone manually moving your baby around two weeks before a due date. As if your whole body doesn't hurt already as it was, right? But she did her best to be thorough, even if it hurt she was making sure as best she could that the baby was indeed in the proper position, and while she was down there? Checking dilation... If they had checked Mary then maybe they could have done this earlier than at the last minute, prevented the little girls death, even saved the baby... Speaking in a clear, pleasant voice she stated that they had indeed rotated the baby into the proper position as well as that shew was starting to dilate, but it was still plenty early yet.



The applause sunk into her head slowly but surely, her breathing erradic, her heart felt funky... She knew she was about to have a panic attack, and she was fighting it off with sheer will and determination, and a LOT of freaking pride. She'd never show weakness to anyone but Jacob, and she sure as hell wasn't about to show it around Grace, especially given that she had been made public enemy number one. Just add another name to the list... She took her seat next to Kit and began to practice her breathing, rolling her shoulders subtly, flexing her fingers in and out... Keeping herself grounded, focusing on facts around her, real things like the tables and chairs...



There was the whole bit about the parties, one for the students and one for the professors and such, and then the QnA... She hadn't expected to have any directed at her, it was a bit much to expect it, especially considering her part in this whole thing had been small... A couple blips, no more no less, but there it was... Her head snapped up a bit straighter at the question, seeing who had asked it, a group of people not much older than her... And the question? Quite legitimate. She took a moment or two to pause before she spoke, her voice soft but clear, strong and sure of it's wording... "Wisdom is all a matter of perspective really... If you think about it, what is wise to you, might be asenine to someone else... You're question is a good one and very honestly asked, so I will give you an answer in the same fashion, as best as I am able..." She said and paused for a moment longer before she continued. "Difficulty isn't what a person should base their choices off of. We're becoming doctors, we're entering a world that is constantly changing and evolving, and what we know today isn't guaranteed to be correct tomorrow. It's a hard thing that we chose to do, and if we aren't prepared to do what's hard, then should we even be in this room today? The truth is I'm not afraid of hard work or starting over from square one, I'm aware this is going to be an uphill battle on a muddy trail but that's ok, I'm prepared for that. What I'm afraid of? Is letting my future patients down, of taking the easy road, the path of less resistance." She said before finishing up, looking at the small group around them. "Don't let the knowledge of a rough path stop you from doing what you know is right to do in your heart." A word of advice, small and sweet, but true. If it's easy, is isn't worth it, and if it's worth it? It won't be easy...



The questions then turned to Jacob then, about taking on a new student, confirming then Kit as his next one. She was so happy for that, she honestly was, Kit deserved so much better than what she had gotten. She was a good soul set on the wrong path, and now that she had a chance to get on the right road again, she was trucking along at a wonderfully steady pace. She needed someone like Jacob who could learn her styles of education, give her what she needed, make sure she got to that goal she was fighting so hard to reach. She gave Kits hand a squeeze then, a smile for her friend, though it slipped just a second when the girls in the group asked if he was single. Yeah... Figured that was going to happen. As she was happy to see Faelon stepped in... But then so did Grace...



Yes, she had said just earlier that Grace was possibly the out they were looking for, a chance to get out of the limelight as a couple, shift it to someone else... But DAMN girl let that shit cool! Grace had jumped on that faster than a fly on shit. Well, she obviously wanted to stake her claim, didn't she? She trusted in Jacob though, in what he had said earlier, and she would believe it... Grace could bark up that tree all she wanted she wasn't getting any nuts. It was closed then, the speech polite and showing a clear end to the day, and that was when he came to her and Kit... Kit herself had received an invitation and she was over the moon for her! The two had a moment where they shared a hug and Kit made mention of needing to find a certain elf and an even more certain dress before she was out...



She lingered a moment before opening her own invitation behind a curtain in private, and that was when she saw it, the little note stashed away inside... Her lips curled in a warm and happy smile, catching the request there, a subtle way for them to match... She could manage that... Then to meet at this place... The address and the key falling into her hand before she slid them into her pocket, and that note, that daring little note... Well, she had to get to stepping now, didn't she?





This time though she didn't ask Anouk for help, nor did she get something from the clothes that had been sent over by her wonderful darling little friend, instead? She went to the biggest store she could find, the fanciest and the most esteemed, walking in like she owned it... And there? She had a dress picked out and fitted to her within a half hour, she wanted something classic and elegant but at the same time something that would command attention, a strong color palette but not gaudy... And something that could have a time made to match, subtle of course, but high end... She also picked up a few small pieces of accessories and of course all the proper trappings before having it all neatly packed up and sent to the address...



She herself followed after, and once she stepped into the space? She was in love... It was more than she could ever afford true enough, but the view of the ocean and the city below, the subtle and rich furnishings... It screamed power in a way that made you want to listen to it every day... Oh yes... She could definitely enjoy some time in this space! Plus... You know... The huge bed that looked oh so terribly inviting... She had to bite her lip on a grin as she looked it over, touching the soft furnishing before she heard the shower going, and that grin? Just spread... Quite a bit! She rushed to the door the second the knock came and took the package with her face hidden behind the door, pulling it in and tossing it onto the couch, going through several tissue lined bits before she found it...



A wickedly naughty little smile spilling from her lips before she slipped out of the suit and donned the little outfit she had picked up JUST for this purpose... Taking the combs out of her hair and brushing it out so it fell in loose soft curls, adding just a touch of red lipstick, the application of another perfume that complimented the one from earlier... And the two combined? Just smelled sexy as fuck... Like good, hot, mind blowing you cant imagine it any better kind of sexy... Slipping into it before he got out, she measured out the room, looking at it from this and that angle, referencing mentally some of the notes from his book... What worked best... Finding a position to lay down on the bed on her back, one leg lifted en point in the air, the other bent... Leaving her body beautifully elongated and showing off those gorgeous incredible legs... Her fingers holding a very sheer, slightly glittery black stocking up a touch past her knee, the other already slid up and held on by garters... Sexy lace tops that matched the same prench point as the rest of it...



When he came out? He'd see her lying on the bed, her heart shaped ass clad incredibly sheer black lace, looking as if it might just spill out with how gloriously full it was... Her hair a golden riot around her head, lovely red hued lips in a sexy little mou, and her hands? Slowly... Oh so slowly dragging that stocking up... "Jacob my love?..." She'd ask, turning her head to look at him, that sultry look in her eyes that just spelled so my trouble for him... Trouble he adored... "Can I ask you something?" She said, pulling the stocking the rest of the way up, the sharp snap of each clasp being closed... Slowly moving to sit up, letting her chest rise first, making a dance of it... Sliding her feet into a pair of black high heel boots that came up over her knees, standing there, her hands on her breasts... Letting thier sweet little mounds dance with the edges of lace... Her nipples already hard and lusciously pink... "Can you help me with this clasp right here?" She'd ask, walking towards him with that sultry sway to her hips, nibbling on her bottom lip like she could just eat him alive... "Could you... Adjust this strap here for me?" She turned around, and at first he might think it was her bra strap... But no such luck... No she slowly bent over to touch her toes, running her hands up along the insides of her legs to pause just shy of her cunt that was on display, a set of black pearls nestled between the folds that were a part of the panties themselves... "This strap right here... I can't seem to get it right..." It was the clasp for the pearls, specifically made for lovers, the partner could tighten them to roll over his lovers clit with each step... Or loosen it to a comfortable if somewhat naughty set... Sliding her hands up farther to rest over her ass then, she kept perfectly still... Waiting...

..the apartment was stunning, worlds apart from the place he stayed in back in Arvandor.. and even then the Manse.. this was a lot more modern.. sleek and sharp.. very minimalist ..there wasn't a lot within the space.. but the things that were in there were of the finest quality.. he had slipped in much earlier than she.. mere moments after the seminar had come to a close.. his reasoning being this way he was less likely to be tailed.. and if anyone did happen to see her coming in later they wouldn't know he was already there.. his hung his dress suit on one of the bare hangers nearer the window.. it was ready for the evenings event.

.a shower was most definitely required.. a nice long hot shower.. something to just wash the day away.. it had been a long one and at certain parts incredibly stressful.. Food had been delivered to the door.. just a mixture of fruits and wine.. nothing potent..just clean and smooth.. something to take the edge off .. something to simply enjoy.. the water in that shower was sublime.. drawing soap across his ink designed skin.. running fingers back through his hair.. he didn't hear her enter.. all he knew was she had his key.. and instructions on where to do.. and how long they had until they would have to leave.. the music continued.. hauntingly soft in the background as the water switched off.. he stepped out onto the mat.. drawing a large fluffy towel over his frame.. drying off the majority.. his arms.. shoulders and back before he would wrap the same towel around his middle.. his chest bared.. his hair.. well looking as though he had just dried it with vigour .. a little bit here and there.. very tousled..

he went to step out into the main section of the apartment..his face covered by a smaller hand towel.. rubbing it across his cheeks.. his eyes.. before her voice would ring out..he froze.. her scent struck him like a sudden slap to the face and he took a breath.. looking over the edge of the fabric.. he caught sight of her there.. stretched out like a sleek kitten.. and wearing incredibly little.. he cleared his throat.. dropping the towel away from his face then.. placing it down upon the chair arm.. she asked if .. well she could ask him a question..-.. You can ask me anything angel.. -he reached his hands up.. running his fingers back through his hair once more.. trying to tame it at least a little.. causing his upper body to elongate a touch.. those muscular lines on display..

exhaling long and a little shaky when his eyes drank in the movements with those stockings.. she was tormenting him.. teasing him.. she had his complete and focused attention.. his knees wavered a little when she began to touch herself.. when she cupped her breasts.. those beautifully rounded globes.. he couldn't help but admire the way the lace was doing its best to hold the weight.. he pushed away from the door frame then.. finding his feet.. his throat was running quite dry.. watching her like she was a meal.. and he was incredibly hungry.. famished even.. she asked if he could help her with a clasp.. and his brow rose just a little.. curious indeed.. -.. But of course.. anything for you.. -his voice had changed in pitch.. not a lot but enough to know the effect she was having upon him..

she turned around so he got a full and much better view of that beautiful ass of hers.. there was no clasp on the back of the bra though.. he blinked.. drawing breath to ask what it was she meant.. before she bent clean at the waist.. lower.. lower.. he swallowed.. that towel of his was clearly tenting.. there was no way to avoid it.. and certainly no way to avoid it...if she was in any way concerned on how much he was infatuated with her.. Oh there was no way she could miss it.. he drew his lower lip inward.. chewing upon it before releasing.. his breath caught audibly when he saw those jet black pearls..-..I think..-he'd pause.-.. I think I need a closer look.. -he closed the gap between them both.. coming up behind her..

to stand there pressed flush against her very bendy positioning.. his towel clad hips were pressed to hers.. he leant forward.. reaching his arms down her back toward her neck.. to just lightly caress all the way back up to that luscious ass of hers that was so beautifully on display.-.. Do you have any idea how hard you are making this for me?.. -he'd question.. his hands falling to those rounded hips of hers.. fingers fanning out to grip.. to hold-.. maybe you dont quite get it.. -he'd speak softly..before that towel would just pool at both their feet.. and then it would be quite clear.. just how hard.. she was making it for him.. pressed clean.. flush with those lace clad cheeks.. undeniably rock hard.. he'd bump her forward with his hips.. once.. twice.. threetimes.. -..

we best look to this clasp though.. -before he would drop down to his knees behind her.. parting her thighs just a little wider..he'd reach down between.. feeling along her soft creamy upper.. before he would cup that glistening wet cunt of hers.. -.. I like these..-he began to glide a single finger over each of those pearls.. - this is incredibly naughty for you Rose..should I make it slack.. so its pretty on the eye.. a bit of a tease depending on how you sat.. how you moved.. Or.. -he suddenly pulled it tight.. so the split would nudge in wedging that tiny hardened pleasure bud between them -.. Tight.. so you cant move an inch without feeling like my hands were down there.. tormenting you.. its a hard decision.. -he'd press his lips against her inner thigh there..

before he clasped those pearls in the latter.. nice and firm.. forcing her lips to be a little more parted as they were filled with a line of glistening pearls.. he leant in though without warning and he plied his lips to her sticky sweet entrance.. his tongue would dip inside her.. flicking.. curling.. exploring..Fuck she tasted good.. like beyond that.. it was a drug he never knew he even needed.. that he was living without.. and now knew he would never.. Ever be able to pass it up.. and from that carriage ride where she tormented him with gliding it across his lips.. well.. this was like pure fucking heaven..

he feasted upon her.. keeping her thighs well parted as he supped and sucked.. as he glided that tongue down those wet little pearls.. and up again.. giving them a little flick every so often.. to send all manner of vibrations down to her core.. -.. Fuck.. -he groaned.. reaching around to hold her thighs tighter if she tried to jerk away. no he was making her ride it.. all of it.. his tongue glided from that sweet honey pot of a hole ..lower.. having to pull that gorgeous lace aside..at least a little so he could get to that supple ass of hers.. hell if he was going to take her for a ride.. why not see all the sights.. his right hand cupped that sweet cunt of hers once more.. feeling her heat as his thumb dipped past the pearl barrier.. to dip into her.. to tease.. as his tongue made short work of that sweet pink star..

he nudged her forward.. a little.. and a little more.. till her knees were nearer to the bedside.. where her upper body could fall.. the top of the bedding was a mixture of fabrics.. plush cottons and fur.. he continued to tease her.. to toy and play with her.. tightening the pearls.. tasting those sweet cheeks and sliding his thumb in and out of her.. over and over.. before he would slowly pull back.. his lips leaving a trail of kisses up the back of her thighs-.. Pure fucking heaven.. you have No idea.. -he whispered against her creamy soft skin.. his hands came down to rest upon her hips once more.. -.. lift up for me.. onto your toes.. -she was a wee short thing.. his pocket rocket in a tiny package that he couldn't live without.. he would wait until she did.. before she would feel his cock brushing against that line of pearls.. gliding that thickness along those perfectly puffy lips .. down further.. past that dripping wet entrance.. dragging that glistening honey over her ass and back down again.. oh she was just perfectly primed.. perhaps a symptom of pregnancy.. or simply her bodies way of just wanting more and more.. and making sure he knew about it..

he reached down.. flicking her exposed little clit with his cocks head.. before drawing the pearls a little to the side..so they were on either side of her clit.. either side of her entrance.. and then either side of his cock.. he applied that pressure.. just a little.. a little more.. allowing her to take him.. to accept him.. though those pearls were causing him all manner of havoc along with how fucking tight she was.. he groaned.. the head of his cock gliding into that slick wet cunt.. the pearls dragging with him.. tightening and slacking with his movements.. before he suddenly and without warning just dove right on in.. gliding in perfectly smooth..bottoming out as his hips came to rughly press against her lush ass cheeks.. he groaned.. his head rocking back.. his teeth gritting down.. a hissed breath sounding.. hands upon her hips then curling in tightly to hold her-.. Fucking Hell.. -he whined.. the idea of him straying from her was laughable.. why would he even considerate it?.. everything he needed was right here.. and she had him.. wrapped around her little finger-

[BadInfluence]

Oh she would be a liar if she didn't admit seeing him there in nothing but a towel not only brought some very sweet memories to the surface... The time he had accidentally walked in to grab a shower while she was in there, the two sneaking peeks at each other through the fog, already falling for each other though neither of them knew it at the time. On top of that memory was this one, newly forming but no less sweet, although FAR less innocent than the other... She was very well aware of every thick throbbing inch and beautifully shaped muscle under that towel, thank you very much! But right now? She was venturing out into a new place, something different and interesting, a new chapter in the book. Honestly, it was almost impossible to read through the whole thing, every time she opened it up? It was like a new section was added, something that was just for him and her, something she could have sworn hadn't been there at first... Perhaps the book evolved with the reader, enchanted by Hanali herself to provide the owner with fresh and new information for every coupling, a different way to enjoy each other than the last? Either way? Todays chapter was quite lucious...



Athena's Unmentionables had MORE than lived up to it's name! Her dress was a stunning thing to be sure, she'd easily steal the room in it she was sure, and well she needed things to go under it... And she had gotten those true enough... But more than that? She had found this little number, a new invention, taken from the pleasure houses overseas... Using precious gems and the like to assist in pleasure, both visually and stimulatory, creating one HELL of a wickedly lush combination... So she? Had to buy it of course, her months pay that she had gotten from the mance was poof, gone in that purchase but so... Oh SO worth it! She had barely been able to keep her hands from shaking as she put it on in that luxurious apartment, her heart thudding hard and her palms sweating, her nerves jumping about...



Would he like it?



From the way he looked, the way he stopped like a deer in the headlights, how he cleared his throat... Oh yes, she was coming to recognise those little bits, and she loved every little tell he had. She asked if she could ask him a question, oh she was so damned innocent there, every word was like a lamb in the meadow... Even if she were wearing the very guilty wolf's clothing! She had gotten up after snapping those clasps sharply, unable to resist the way she made her lips into that sultry mue, the way she slanted her eyes at him... Seduction in every movement as she cupped her breasts... As if adjusting them in their lace nettings... Oh but turn around was fair play, watching him stretch to smooth his hair out a touch, a barely audible whimper at the way his abs flattened... The tightening of his chest and the ripple of muscles along his ribs... Lower...



Focus Rose! She reminded herself, not letting her mind wander, keeping firmly in her head just what that new chapter had said... Letting her seduce him this time, to tease and torment, to give him the sweet flavors of need... And from the look on his face? She was definitely hitting all the right notes with how he looked at her, a starving man in front of a buffet, an alcoholic at an open bar... "Yes, my love? What is it?" She asked oh, so innocently when he thought he needed a closer look. Teasing as he closed the gap before he pressed flush against her, his cock throbbing between her full ass cheeks, and yeah... She bit her knuckles to keep from making a sound.



How hard she was making this for him... Feeling his fingers trace down her spine, along the elaborate living tattoo on her side, the fronds seeming to follow and trace along his fingertips lovingly before resuming their spot once more... Only he was witness to the magic of that ink work but she hoped his attention was very much focused elsewhere... "Oh, I'm sorry sweetheart... Is the clasp... Hard to find?..." So sugary sweet and tender, like a candied violet... "I can... Help you locate it..." She offered up, but before she could move that towel was dropped and now it was her turn for her breath to catch, a strangled mewl of pleasure as she saw between her legs the expanse of his own... Strong and stalwart... Steady and true...



Though when he began to thrust against her teasingly she gasped and her thighs drew in a touch, reaching between her own legs to stroke along his, up to lightly graze her fingers over his sack... "Yes, please..." She breathed before he discovered how those pearls worked, and while he was down there he'd notice those were no costume jems either, but genuine black peals from the very ocean the city bordered... Making it all just that much more luxurious and forbiddingly delicious. "It is... But I was reading the book you gave me... And it said things like this are... A very lovely way to... Entice and reward your partner..." She breathed, her words catching, hitching on these little parts... "I want... What ever you prescribe, Dr. Anikin..." She crooned at him then... "I am your... Willing patie-" She got out before he tightened them and she...



Well she felt THAT!



She gasped and jerked suddenly, rocking forward into the bench at the foot of the bed, her nails digging into the fabric as she tossed her head back... "I want this... I want it..." Wanted what? She rolled her hips just a little, feeling the way the pearls slid and tormented over her clit, making her eyes roll up in the back of her head... "To feel this... All night at the gathering... I want... You to know with each step I take... These are... Rubbing me...T-teasing me..." Oh FUCKING HELL! She shrieked, sweet and sudden when he planted himself over her without a word, rocking hard into that bench, biting the bedding to keep from screaming... Instantly dipping her back so her cunt was on full display for him... Easy to access... Reaching back blindly she found his hair after a couple misses and dug her fingers into it, holding him there as she began to rock against that decadent tongue fucking, only to have it replaced with his thumb...



She tried to pull away after a few moments, all of a sudden it was a touch too much, the tease from earlier in the day hadn't quite faded... And those pearls? Oh those luscious, delicious, terribly naughty pearls! She might have just MASSIVELY overestimated her control... Then he went a step forward, pushing her forward onto that bed, her legs spread... Oh how many men would murder an entire continent for the view he had, she had one of the most amazing asses ever granted a woman, so full and plush and beautifully shaped... It had that perfect bounce when slapped, and when she walked, oh how it swayed... Bounced and juggled hypnotically... She didn't have much of a rack but her ass? Could make his grandfather take notice and bend time and space to tap that shit...



Then he shocked her and ran his tongue up over her ass and she gasped, nearly shooting straight up, her hands leaving his hair to grip the bedding... She'd never felt that before, as far as she knew (the book hadn't gotten to THAT area yet) that area was taboo, not an area for pleasure... But as he ran his tongue over it and nibbled, nipping at the plush moons of her ass, she found herself suddenly panting... Her core throbbing, her head spinning as she rocked back into it, surprising herself at how she enjoyed it... Her toes were curling in her boots as she fisted her fingers even deeper into the sweet soft bedding, catching the furs there, the way they felt against her nipples... She took control for a moment... Shifted herself just a bit to the left before dropping down a touch more, her breasts over the fur on the bedding then, settling back for him to enjoy her...



He went a step farther to tighten those pearls a bit more and there was no way to deny that scream of pleasure, rocking down hard against the bedding, pressing her head into it to try and mute the sounds of her pleasure. "FUCK!" She whined, starting to tremble as she did as he said, lifting herself up more... Rising onto the tips of her toes... She barely topped five two on a good day, she was incredibly short, and he was stretching her out deliciously... "Oh I m-might have an i-idea..." It wasn't like HE didn't feel incredible, making her scream like he did, the way she was utterly and luscious wet... A side effect of pregnancy? Partially... It had a lot to do with the fact she wanted him, often and with a violence that surprised herself, especially considering before she met him? She was entirely content to completely ignore sex as a whole... An ugly, messy and foul joining of bodies, the fluid exchange for offspring... Nasty...



But Jacob?



Had changed the entire feel of it all for her, morphed it into a beautiful act between two people who loved each other, showed her what it was meant to be...



Sliding into her was a surprisingly new revelation with those pearls, with the very sure knowledge she was pregnant, that he was happy about the development... It changed it, charged it, upped the ante... She was a writhing, wriggly little thing as she whined, begging him... "Oh... Oh please... Please... " She breathed and rolled her hips, those pearls were pure divine torment, and the pressure they put on her entire pussy as he slid between them?... She found herself giving into the sheer feel of the moment... Moaning richly before he suddenly impaled her on his cock in one luxuriously smooth moment... Dragging those pearls as tight as they could be over her clit, a rapid tub of textures... She came with a violence she thought she couldn't feel, she figured the hospital bed was the peak, the Queen O... But it didn't hold a candle to this... It was hard and fast, violent as a sudden thunderstorm, striking her to her core as she rocked back onto him



He'd feel a flare of magic, the tickle and tingle on the wind that was always alive around her, as real as her own scent... Only this time it was being focused, and behind the bed, over the headboard... A full length mirror that clearly displayed them together... She shifted back, rising up as much as she could, giving him a clean view of the beautiful arch of her spine... The little dip of her belly... Her breasts spilling out of that lace bra... The beautiful little shell pink nipples hard and so proudly sitting on a beautiful small pair of tits... Ideal for her delicate stature... She reached back and took his hands from her hips, placing them up along her belly, over to rest atop her tits in that moment... The look of raw hungry desire on her face... The flush of a violent orgasm, the pink hue to the tops of her breasts... The glittering wetness between her thighs, the subtle sucking movements as her core fluttered and pulsed around his cock... Pushing him out if he didn't make sure to anchor in as hard and deep as he could...



When she came down she looked into that mirror, she caught his gaze and held it, placing her hands over his... Squeezing her breasts to the point of the sweetest pain... Showing him exactly what she wanted... "Who fucked this baby into me?..." Oh GOD she had such a dirty little mouth sometimes, didn't she? She had heard a lot at the whore house above her old room and now? Now it was coming out, shifted and bent to her own style, her own preferences... She'd release his hands to drop to his hips now, digging her nails into his ass, giving him just a touch of heady pain for himself... "Who got this pretty little pussy pregnant?" He was so happy about being a father she thought there might be something there... Perhaps hidden, hungry fetish, a desire to fantasize over it... "Who cummed so deep inside my virgin little cunt to knock me up?" With each question she would pull off of his cock to the tip, only to slam herself back down, setting those tits to bounce in his hands... Her breath catching... Hitching and stalling... "Who's baby am I carrying?"



Panting with pleasure now she released one of her hands from his ass to grip the front of her panties, to pull them up a touch so he could see her bare cunt, the way his cock was being hungrily devoured by her pussy and the rolling of those pearls... SO he could see the way she was rolling her hips, churning his cock inside her, doubling the torment for them both... "Tell me Daddy... I wanna hear you say it..."

[Deleted]

..he had tugged back on that beautiful strand of rare black pearls.. making them split, tug and rub against her clit in such a viciously pleasurable way.. her reaction was perfect..the begging.. the pleading that she wanted this.. wanted it.. to feel it all night long at the gathering.. he pulled them tighter.. -.. Oh?.. You want to walk around the Seniors dinner.. with your cunt wet and exposed beneath your dress angel?.. -he questioned.. his lips colliding with the plush roundness of her ass.. the idea was perfect..he loved it.. and it would be something he would request of her now..

as soon as he was done tormenting her.. they had a good few hours before they even had to look at getting organised and ready.. and he was planning to use every single moment of it.. who knew when they would get the chance again.. it could be later that night Again.. or it could be a few days after.. he wasn't willing to take the chance.. he wanted her.. needed her Now.. his lips planted over that sweet wet pussy.. he was drinking in every single moan.. every gasp and whimper.. her trembled and shakes were sublime.. he worked her.. every inch.. sliding his thumb up into that slick wet tunnel whilst his tongue slid back to that little pink star..

he was going to enjoy her.. she fell down onto the bed.. her legs spread..that beautiful ripe ass of hers on display.. that heart shape encased in the finest black lace.. it bounced.. it jiggled just the right amount.. he'd be lying to himself if he ever said he didn't like it.. he fucking loved it.. he teased her a little more.. playing with the pearls.. giving little tugs as his thumb dipped in and out of her.. she was dripping wet.. face down upon the covers.. beautiful knee high boots..lace clinging to her ass.. her tits..

those beautiful blonde waves.. she had his heart.. it had very little to do with the way she looked.. but.. By the goddess she was stunning.. he got her to lift up onto her toes.. and he glided that thick hardened cock into her.. it glided in smoothly once it got over that initial pop.. she was a tiny little thing afterall.. so tight.. so slick..wet.. hot .. the pearls were dragging against his shaft.. changing things up.. making it harder for him as well as her.. he growled.. -.. Dont silence yourself angel.. -he groaned.. his hands coming down to rest there upon the rounds of her hips-.. be as loud as you fucking want.. -he exhaled.. dipping his head back.. he was doing all he could to not just dive right into her.. to just impale her on his cock.. the struggle was real.. and he lost in the end.. giving her little warning as he just thrust forward.. invading that tight little tunnel.. bottoming out as his hips came thudding against her luscious ass..

she stiffened and cried out.. climaxing hard.. nearly forcing his cock out of her in the process but he held on.. he felt each and everyone of those spasms.. all in an effort to milk that cock of his but he held back.. his grip just tightened.. nails nearly biting into the flesh-.. Fuck Yes Rose.. -he growled.. he felt the prickle of the magic then.. the shift in the room as the mirror appeared just across from them both.. giving quite a beautiful view of the act itself.. there was nothing to hide.. he could see her.. the way her body elongated out.. the shapes and curves.. the ways her tits bounced whenever he thrust forward.. oh it was mind fuckery at its finest..-.. My god you're so beautiful.. -he swallowed down a breath as he fucked her.. knocking his hips back against hers.. thrusting his cock in and out of her.. sliding.. gliding.. the sounds were maddening.. she was so wet.. and yet still so tight.. he moved with her when she shifted his hands.. so he could grab those beautiful breasts.. feeling their weight as he continued to thud back into her.. over and over..

his thumbs rolled those little pink buds.. pinching them between a few fingers.. tugging.. palming.. griping and holding.. his pace slowed to a crawl.. he almost pulled out completely.. just the head nestled just within her sticky wet entrance as he continued to torment those beautiful globes.. before he would dive back into her.. hips to ass.. feeling that incredible jiggle.. before he caught her gaze in that mirror.. the two of them looking to one another there.. pleasure and frustration evident upon youthful features.. he felt her fingers curling tighter over his hands.. to the point where it left red marks.. she wanted more that he was giving her.. she wanted to skirt that fine line.. and he was more than obliging.. squeezing until she cried out..

her first question.. those dirty little words .. asking who fucked that baby into her caused his head to drop back.. -.. Oh God.. -he whined.. his brows furrowed.. he didn't even know she had this side to her.. -.. You have such a sweet mouth.. to say such.. dirty things.. -he exhaled a rather shaky breath.. his hands slid back down to her hips then.. releasing her tits to watch them bounce.. to watch them jiggle much like her ass would when he started pounding into her.. her nails digging into his ass made him growl.. made him grit his teeth down.. the pain caused that lush fog to roll in..

making his rhythm shift.. to an Out of rhythm.. .slow.. fast.. fast.. slow.. thudding suddenly.. slapping his hips to her ass.. only to draw it out.. shorter shallow thrusts.. followed by longer deeper ones.. his chest began to heave as his breathing became sharper.. she asked him more.. the words coming from her were just incredibly naughty.. tormenting him.. she asked who got that pretty pussy pregnant.. who cummed so deep in her.. to knock her up.. he hissed out a breath-.. That virgin little cunt is all mine.. -his fingers curled in.. digging his nails into her hips.. into her ass as he continued to fuck her.. to glide right up into that sweet pussy of hers..-.. Thats my baby your carrying.. and you'l not carry anyone elses.. Ever.. -his heart was stammering in his chest..

catching sight of the way her body shifted on the bed as he pushed her harder and harder.. her tits bouncing against the soft bedding.. and that ass.. well.. he had to watch that jiggle.. that and the sight of her cunt just taking every thick inch of him.. before he couldn't hold back any longer.. and she would have felt the spasms.. the sudden rich throbbing before he groaned loudly.. his right hand lifted to slap hard against her left cheek..he exploded deeply within her.. painting her.. coating her.. filling her with that scorching hot seed of his..

he gasped and growled.. his breath caught.. he trembled.. jerking a little more.. and a little more into her before he fell against the bedding.. just over her.. he was panting.. trying to catch his breath.. -.. Fuck me.. -he whined..-.. You are.. so.. so bad.. =he swallowed..his arms wrapping around her.. with a little effort.. a bit of manipulating he would have his head down on the pillows and her sweet sweaty frame resting atop his.. his cock still buried within her but not as hard as it once was.. just sticky.. wet and warm.. he kissed her cheeks.. her forehead.. the tip of her nose before he would settle there nearer to her lips-. I love you.. -he'd whisper.. just soft.. barely there.. a small kiss.. and then another.. turning into something a lot more loving.. a lot sweeter.. breathing from her.. allowing her to breathe from him..brushing her hair lightly back behind her ears..-.. You'l be the death of me I sware it.. -the corners of his lips curled.. and he laughed lightly.. brushing his nose to hers-..

"YES!" She cried out sweetly as she dug her nails into the bedding, tossing her head from side to side as he pulled those pearls tighter, the idea of it all... A decadent and entirely naughty secret between them, something only they knew about, something that would be at the forefront of their minds through the entire dinner... She knew she was playing with fire, there was no guarantee she could keep her face in a polite resting expression but oh, how she wanted this! It was crazy, scary too in a lot of ways, but she was throwing so much to the wind... Like him they had no guarantee of when they could sneak away like this, enjoy each others company, their bodies... The world was stacking chips against them, and she knew once this Seminar was at a close and everything finished up? He'd be going back to the manse and she would be here, pushing herself forward through her studies, but she knew... She knew she'd miss him every moment of it...

So she embraced this new chapter of pleasure and sex, taking everything the book had told her in such rich detail, submitting to it fully... It was naughty, daring, more than a little slutty... She felt like one of the girls from the pleasure house but so... So much better... Her partner was a God in bed, he twisted her around in the most delicious ways, knew just how to break her and make her love it... Even now, bent over the bed trembling, her knees locked and on the tips of her toes... The taboo way he was loving her, pleasuring her ass while fingering her cunt, making her eyes roll up while she shuddered and shook...

His entrance into her would always hurt at first, no matter how wet she was, how much she was prepared by his lips and fingers... She was petit and he? Was blessedly hung like priapus and then some, and more than that, he knew what to do with it... So while those first few minutes hurt, made her gasp and cry out, shuddering as she tried to pull off... He dove in deeper, impaling her and it took nothing more than that to make her cum... Her head thrown back as those golden waves splayed over her shoulders, her body locked tight and spasming around him hard and sweet... He had to hold on tight as her body worked him over with a furious sort of intent, and his willpower, well THAT was impressive! A tight little cunt like hers would have even the strongest willed men dropping their load when she came, but he held on, rode out the rocking waves like a master sailor.

She couldn't resis tthe mirror, no more than he could resist pounding against her ass, the way he made it jiggle and shake... The ripples up her back and thighs as she had to accomidate his strenth, the invasion, rocking back for every entrance he made. He saw their image together, and by God did they make a beautiful couple, dark and light, fair complection to tan... They were stunning next to each other, they really were, and she lost herself in the image there... Seeing how he mastered her body, the shine of a fine sheen of sweat on her skin, the red marks left by his hands... "Yes I am and I'm all yours Jacob, heart and soul..." She moaned thickly as she submitted to the image of them, it was like watching another couple have sex only so much better, able to see his expression and his reactions... To see and feel it all at the same time... Within moments she was climaxing again with a sweet luscious cry, high and melodious as she dropped back to all fours, her back arched like a sleek little sex kitten for him... Rocking back hard onto him with every intention of dragging him through it with her... The slick wet slapping of skin... The smell of sex rich and heavy as incense here...

She rose back up once more, taking his hands and pressing them over her tits, showing him what she wanted... Craved.... "T-that unhhh unnnnhhhh! F-feels so f-fucking good! Unnnnnffffuuuuck! Y-yes! O-o-oooh yes nnnh....nhhhm... Mmmh... J-just-..." She moaned, she cried, she panted and she mewled just for him... Hands sliding down to dig her nails into his ass as she ramped up again hot and sweet...Her tits bouncing and swaying like mad in his palms with their motions, each thrust inside her was so solid, so fierce she couldn't help it... He was snapping at strings, untying knots. revealing more and more of herself... That dark seductress buried under the soft innocence and gentle nature that was herself... A little corner, a niche of shadows rich and heady, like a forbidden playground only he could take her to... It was irresistible to say what she did, to test these forbidden waters, to find out what little kinks he might have... Things discovered rather than told...

"That's what happens... ooohhhnnnmmm ahhnnn! -What happens when... You corrupted... P--poor l-llittle m-me!... I'm- I'm! I'm j-just a-!" She got out but what ever she was going to say was lost when he shifted his rythm, throwing her off the edge with a broken sob as she fell forward, tits pressing hard into the fur as she cried out over and over again... She was drooling, unable to catch her breath, her pearls that she had tightened along with is own adjustments, his cock rolling between them so the motion was repeated on her clit... The lush fabrics on her incredibly sensitive breasts... Each climax dropped her but she always got back up, her back to his chest, gripping his arms to hold herself up... Too enamored with the view of them fucking, watching as she jerked and swayed with each climax, the line of drool beautifully trailing off her chin to splash onto her tits... The absolute and utterly undeniable look of pure pleasure on her face as she soaked his cock... That third time, that random rythm did her in, make her squirt all over his cock... The bedding and sheets... Her thighs and his...

Those waters she tested were deep, dark and hot, and she was drowning in them so divinely... "Yes, yes baby, yes! This little pussys all yours!" When she submitted to the moment she didn't hold back, didn't surrender or give up, she fully embraced it... All of it... "Never Jacob, never- I love you... I want you- Only you- Forever." She panted as she took his hands and placed them over her belly, the first time she ever did that, seeing his hands over her in mirror... Knowing their child was right there... That he had gotten her pregnant that weekend in Arvandor... Planted his cum so deep in her it survived everything her body and the poison had tossed at it... It was still something she was trying to wrap her mind around but somewhere in the back of her head it was obvious... This man of hers? Her Jacob? Might just have a bit of a baby fetish...

God help them both... Because if he did, she couldn't deny him what made him happy, and God knew they would always be having sex... It was a recipe for a very large family indeed...

Unable to hold herself upright anymore she surrendered to all fours for him, rocking back in tandem with his movements, her pussy soaking wet and swollen... Those pearls hidden between love plump folds before he groaned, shoving deep and hard down into her before he slapped her ass, making her cum with the shock of it as he came with her... Deep inside, feeling how it was so rich and heavy, hot as molten lead and coating her like paint... The two of them falling to the mattress, sweat slick and well used, turning in his arms... His cock still planted deep inside her, going soft slowly inside her, a sweet little break in what promised to be quite the few stolen hours... "I believe I just did..." She panted against his lips with a smile, catching his lips with hers, a warm... Sweet and loving kiss... "Mmmm... It was a new chapter in your book... It said it was something every couple should try... Very um... empowering for a shy woman like myself..." She curled in around him, wrapping her arms around his shoulders, peppering kisses along his tattooed arms and shoulders... "Not something I could do every day but... I did enjoy it... Quite a lot..." She breathed as he kissed her back, her cheeks and forehead, her nose and the corner of her smile... "God I love you too Jacob... So much..." She whispered back, kissing him again with such fevered longing and love, her fingers curling in his hair... She laughed with him when he said she would be the death of him, a gentle shrug of her shoulders, a teasing some on her lips. "Is that a complaint?" She asked as she lay atop of him, gently running her nose back along his before going in for another soft, sweet kiss.

"So is this place for rent? Or is it another surprise from your bag of tricks?" She teased as she nestled in just a bit closer, only to realize it was quite hot in there, and with a bit... Ok a LOT of focus, she managed to open one of the large glass windows that made up the wall of this place, the cool air delicious on her almost bare skin. "I love it... Normally I'm not for this type of thing but it's gorgeous... And the view is utterly amazing... I bet you can see the sun coming up over the ocean here..." Or did it set on this side? She couldn't say she knew right off the bat, but maybe it was setting, she almost bet money that she had seen it set the first night... She'd wait for his answer before she would shift a bit, straddling him with his cock still nestled nice and deep inside her, reaching under her breasts to take the bralet off... Handing it to him with a wink. "Keep this here... So when ever your around you'll think of me... And this moment..." She said with a wink. "After all I bought this outfit just for you... Last night was incredible but far too short... And a hospital gown is so not sexy..." Said with a roll of her hips, her face instantly shifting into one of sweet anguish, her breath catching as the pearls rolled along her clit... "I think I might have bitten off more than I can chew... This is too luscious... What do you think?" She asked, pulling off of him just a touch, a little more... Sliding back down on him again... She knew he needed a break, a chance to reload so to speak, and it was a good chance as any for... Other things...

Another slow lift of her hips as he was released from the vice like grip of her cunt, his cock sliding out with a wet sucking noise, his cum soon dribbling out after... Rolling to her slide she slipped from the bed for a second and got a washcloth, wetting it before handing it to him, after all she wasn't rude! Though if he went to clean his cock... "Hey! What do you think your doing?" She'd ask, stopping his hand and guiding it to his forehead. "That's mine." She crooned as she settled back on the bed between his thighs and ran her tongue up along his thigh, licking at the salt rich skin, farther up... Along the crinkled soft skin of his sack, suckling one of his balls into her mouth, swirling her tongue over it... Lapping up all that cum, sex and sweat on the tip of her tongue, nails lightly sinking into the skin of his ass... Releasing it with a wet pop before going to the second one, keeping the pleasure warm and sweet, just naughty enough to make his toes curl... A touch farther up where she took his soft cock between her lips and began to give him a decadent blowjob, laping and sucking, suckling and slurping... Consuming every last bit of cum left on his cock and what ever he had in his balls before releasing him with a pop, lickling her lips with a smack, looking every inch like a kitten who got into the butter cream... Once she had her fill she curled up at his side, her arm over his chest, her head over his heart...

The steady rhythm was so calming, so warm and sweet, helping calm the growing panic in the back of her mind... "I'm scared..." She confessed as she looked up at him, her free hand under her head, fingers tracing along his chest... "What should we do?... Or should we even try to think about it?" There was so much going on in their lives right now, it had been from a sexually charged friendship that blossomed beautifully into love, and for a while it had been ok... They could do it... Sure there were bumps but nothing TOO bad... But now? They were going to be cities apart, day and night with other people, other lives... And now? Now they were having a baby all too soon... "Did you... Mean what you've said so far? About the baby?" She asked gently... "It's sudden... Like I took every precaution but... It's here regardless... We're so new... We're only just starting and I know... I know I love you with ALL my heart Jacob, I'll only ever love you, for the rest of my life but... This... I don't know if I can do it... It's all... It's so much all at once..."

[Deleted]

..the two of them just fell into one another.. the whole sequence was hot, hard and incredibly heavy.. it were as if they had not seen one another in weeks and yet.. it was more like hours.. hands were gripping, reaching and caressing.. bodies were entwined.. skin to skin.. lips were locked.. tongues dancing.. the sounds within the room were that perfect mix of music and pleasure.. her sweet soft cries and his much deeper growls .. their moans just fit together perfectly.. much like their bodies did.. slapping skin.. the thudding of his hips to the generous curves of her ass.. he couldn't help himself really she was his match..

he now understood why when people found their match in Arvandor they just fell.. no one else mattered.. the blinders came on and that other person was their beacon.. their light.. she spiced things up then.. her words.. so incredibly naughty coming from such sweet perfect little lips.. and he made sure to tell her as much.. his responded in kind though.. laying a claim to that tight little pussy of hers.. that the baby was indeed his and that he had put it there.. she reached to take his hands then.. sliding them down to rest over the gentle feminine curve of her bell.. and his pace slowed.. just for that moment.. He'd been mucked around with in the past with a few women up until that point.. trying to claim he was the Father of their children..

Cora was the latest.. he had been around for the pregnancy.. but.. it was not like this.. the connection he felt to Rose.. and to this very new development far outweighed anything he may have experienced before it.. it was strong.. and he knew it would only grow stronger as time went on.. he leant over her.. brushing his lips to the back of her neck softly.. -.. Forever..-he whispered in response.. echoing her own words.. before she fell back forward.. her hands finding the softness of the bedding as he picked that pace right back up again.. his hands upon the lush rounds of her hips.. fucking that sweet cunt of hers.. he knew he wasn't going to last much longer.. not at all.. in fact he was surprised he had lasted as long as he had.. she would have felt the spasms.. the throbbing deep down within her before he felt himself tip over the edge..

he slapped his palm down against her ass then.. making it shudder...making it jiggle as he exploded so deeply within her.. he gasped and growled.. his body jerked and continued to thud against her.. just coating her completely.. her own sweet climax milked even more out of him.. before he fell down upon the bed.. almost gasping for breath.. his chest rising and falling quite rapidly.. a little body manipulations would have her atop him then.. straddling him as he pulled her in close.. his cock still buried within her.. they shared that kiss.. those adorable words on being the death of each other.. Oh it felt incredibly good to be able to share something like that with someone who mattered.. someone he cared for.. someone he loved.. she asked if he was complaining and he laughed a little.. exhaling softly.. trying to regain some form of composure..

his body still trembling every so often against hers-.. mm.. no.. never a complaint from me angel.. -he shot her a wink then.. his fingers lightly caressing up and down her arms.. just touching her.. not anywhere in particular just.. feeling along her warmed skin.. they shared another soft short kiss before she asked about the Apartment.. -.. mm.. no.. not for rent.. -he watched her as she opened the window..feeling just enough breeze ..-.. Its mine.. I have a few.. dotted here and there.. places where I go when I need the space.. when I need the quiet.. only a select few know its mine.. or that its even here.. -he brushed his lips to her forehead-.. You are right.. the sunrise and sunsets are magnificent.. but to trump them both.. is the stars at night.. with the curtains all opened.. laying here.. you can see it all.. and then of course when you step out onto the balcony..

-fingers roamed up along her arm-.. it's an even better view.. the pool out there is heated during the colder months.. You are welcome here.. anytime.. Hang onto the key I have you.. Thats yours.. -she would have the option to stay here if she chose to.. whilst she studied.. or maybe just if she needed space away from Barathon..and everyone else.. his brows furrowed and he forced out a bit of a breath when she moved to sit upright.. oo.. he was a little bit on the sensitive side by that stage.. and as fucking incredible as she felt.. well she was teasing him.. he rubbed his lips together..

watching her as she removed the bra-let.. releasing those beautiful fleshy globes of hers.. he cleared his throat.. his fingers curled against the soft quilted blanket..he took the black lace from her then.. sliding it just under the pillow his head was resting upon.. -.. Oh ill keep it.. but I doubt there would be a time really, that I wouldn't already be thinking of you.. -his hands slid back across to rest there upon her parted thighs.. when she rolled her hips he growled.. his breath caught.. he could feel those pearls rubbing against his shaft.. he knew they must have been playing merry hell with her.. -.. uh huh.. -he exhaled softly.. shifting a little beneath her-.. You'l wear them tonight though.. for me.. -his hands gripped her thighs tighter when she pulled up.. he almost winced when he was just about free of that hot slick little cunt of hers.. before she glided right back down.. his head dipped back into the pillow and he groaned.. -.. Oh dear god.. -he whined softly..before she rose once more.. this time releasing him.. he sagged back against the bed then.. it was like a delicious torment really.. being nestled deeply inside her..

it felt so fucking incredibly good.. but then at the same time.. it was also too good.. he was balancing on that fine line.. and he felt right proper high because of it.. his eyes closed when she slipped down from the bed..returning with the warm wet cloth.. -.. Very kind. -he would go and do what she figured.. his fingers reaching to clean himself before she stopped him.. that warm wet cloth resting closer to his face..-..But of course.. my mistake.. You are right, it is all yours.. -he went to brush that warm cloth across his forehead.. his cheeks before he felt her tongue gliding up along his thigh and his body tensed.. -.. Fuck.. -he whined.. she was going to send him to madness he was certain of it.. she suckled those balls like a pro.. she knew just what to do.. where to apply the pressure.. where to let up.. he was already sensitive.. this was just.. there were no words for it.. her tongue.. her lips.. the sounds.. the suckling.. the slurping as she cleaned and devoured every inch of that thick cock of his..

he gasped and trembled.. his eyes were opened.. looking down to her there.. every now and then he'd have to dip his head back though as he exhaled that shaky breath.. before she curled up against his side..-.. My god woman.. -another breath exhaled-.. You are a dream.. he pulled her in closer.. against him.. his fingers caressing back through her hair as the two of them fell silent for a moment.. just listening to the wind outside.. the lapping of the water on the balcony.. before she spoke on her fear.. he tilted his head.. catching her gaze..-.. What could you possbly be frightened of?..-he'd question.. curious as to where she was going with this.. before she explained.. or.. elaborated in any rate.. there were a few questions tossed at him.. but the one that made him take notice was did he mean what he said.. about the baby.. she was still worried about it.. he rubbed his lips.. -.. mm.. here..

-he rubbed his fingers together.. she would have felt that mild crackle of energy.. before a small card would appear.. it was folded in half.. white parchment.. gold edging.. he passed it across to her.. when she looked inside.. his hand writing would appear.. perfectly scrawled across the small rectangle of paper-.. I meant it all, -Your J..he would watch her.. his fingers reaching to glide her hair back behind her ears-.. whenever you arent sure.. just look at it.. It is with utmost honesty that I say to you that.. I did mean it.. all of it.. I have no reason to lie to you or decieve you in any way.. You are right.. it was sudden and we figured we had taken every precaution.. but.. sometimes they just dont work the way they are meant too.. I dont take any of it back.. -he offered her a smile-.. I dont know what to do.. or what we should do.. I dont even know if we should be thinking about it.. this is uncharted waters for me.. To be with someone that I have a genuine need and want for.. We are new.. incredibly so.. I know that you can do this.. You can do anything Rose.. anything at all....I guess in some respects we have some decisions to make.. -he tilted his head-..

Do you still want to stay here with Dr Barathon and finish up your training?.. Do you want to postpone it until you are all in the clear so you dont have any interruptions?.. What is it you want Rose?.. I will work with you.. and around anything to make you happy.. -he brushed his lips to her forehead..-whilst you are thinking on that I think its a good time for some wine.. mm?..-he caressed her cheek softly.. before he would pull himself to the side of the bed.. moving to stand as he slid his arms around her.. picking her up.. cradling her there as he walked across toward the big wide windows.. drawing the door open then he'd take the pair of them out.

.slowly putting her down so her feet were upon the water covered steps.. the warmth was apparent.. -.. hop in.. relax.. ill just grab a few things..-he tapped the end of her nose there as he stepped back inside.. still completely bare.. the both of them were.. well her almost.. she still had those naughty pearl panties on.. he returned a few moments later with that bottle of wine.. the platter of fruits.. grapes, berries and stone fruit.. placing it down upon the edge there.. the balcony view was spectacular.. you could swim right to the edge.. no one would know unless they flew up there.. he settled down to sit upon the edge of the water.. dipping his legs down inside as he popped the cork on the bottle-.. a little elvish wine for you.. couple it with the fruit.. magnificent. i sware.. -he waited until she was considerably closer to him before he brushed one of those strawberries along her lips..-..

She felt somewhere between drained and dehydrated, mostly because she was, after their hot little session? She was! Not that she would have it a single other way though, oh by God no, especially not after that soft... Sweet little moment in the middle. She had no idea that he'd been duped around by anyone but Cora, and her heart would have easily broken for him if she had been told but... It was for the better he hadn't... If she had known? She wouldn't have told him anything about the baby, no matter how it pricked her to hide something from him, because in that sort of a situation? She would have done it on her own rather than go through anything... Unsavory?

Of course that had been a soft blip on the radar, a subtle slowing, a soft vow... She would never know what he had been through without someone filling her ear with it, which meant their fabulous little fuck-fest was entirely guilt free and oh... Oh so fucking incredible. She was used and abused in all the best ways, and those naughty pearl lined panties were just the frosting on that cake, and by the time they fell into orgasmic bliss together? She'd lost count of her own orgasms, the last sending them both toppling down together, collapsing in a loving heap on the bed... Her atop of him, held in his arms, the two of them sweat soaked and more than a little high on oxytocin...

Soft, sweet words shared, and admittedly a little bit of cocky teasing from her... "Good, I could always abstain after all... If I'm too much for you, that is..." She couldn't resist, and she probably never would, it was too much fun to have these little diallances... Moments when the world and the labels it applied to them just vanished, just two people who not only loved each other, but loved each others company... Not always two bedfellows that stuck around surprisingly... But with them? They really had it all, that magic, that chemistry and of course the physical appeal... If only the people they'd made enemies of would just go away and let them be for a while...

Asking about the apartment made her lips curl up into this sort of smile that said 'I figured', someplace as nice as this, it... Worked for him. She'd seen his room at the manse, kept very plain and simplistic, and then Arvandor itself... You wouldn't normally think of him being the same man to own both, they were so different, but that was the thing about Jacob... He had so many layers, so complex and wonderful, she still lacked the words to describe him... Even more amazing was the fact that the more she got to know him? The more layers she discovered, the more shades of him that she wanted to see, to explore... He was the most wonderful man, and there wasn't a moment in the day when she wasn't incredibly thankful that he accepted her as a student, allowing them to get to this point... After all they'd seen each other in passing for a couple of years in the hospital, but never had they really talked, or noticed each other other than a random run in... And to imagine... Look at them now?

"It's beautiful... Apologies about the mirror though... I wanted to watch... I didn't mean for it to be so big... Still getting the hang of it." It being magic... She was learning in bits and pieces, small explorations, going through the books they had picked up in Arvandor before they left. "We'll spend the night here together... When things calm down a bit..." When Grace thought she had Jacob good and tight... When the city thought it was Grace who Jacob was with rather than her... When the world stopped focusing on them so much that they couldn't so much as blink without someone commenting... "I'll probably run away now and then when I need some... Privacy?" She hedged, sure he could get the drift, after all trying to climax in a house with your teacher and his daughter? So not helpful! If anything it was a total mood killer. With how chaotic the future of her life was promising to be? She would desperately need a place to spend the night and let off some steam and pressure... "Thank you my sweet..." She said softly, kissing over his heart at the offer of letting her stay here from time to time, leaving the key with her... So much trust... It made her feel like sometimes things were so terribly one-sided... What had she given him? A small music box and some books, flowers and today a tie... But he gave her a life, a place to stay safe when things got to be too much, love and compassion... Understanding... He had even bought her an entire new wardrobe just because she hadn't had one before... It was all a little overwhelming sometimes...

Sitting up, she knew it was torture but sometimes that pain is incredibly lush, almost addictive... She was perfectly aware of what she was doing and it didn't stop her, she was testing boundaries, learning this other side of sex... Slow steps but far from baby, more so cautious exploration, but she was definitely heading into the unknown with gusto... "Oh there will be some... When your up to your elbows with work, or some new discovery grabs your attention, or Faelon has cooked up some wonderful experiment..." She said with a warm, loving smile, knowing that what he had said? Was true. The life of a healer was his first love, and she knew she'd always come in second, and that was ok. This was his grand passion, the thing he woke up for in the morning, who was she to complain? They were similar in this, and while she knew he came first? Oh yeah, this career choice of hers was second and the two weren't very far apart to be honest... Easily able to trade spots depending on what she was doing and who was with her. "But I do hope you'll wrap it around your cock when you touch yourself for me... It's lovely soft lace just for that purpose..." Oh it was a naughty tease but a good one, something to put into his head, a nice little subtle thought... Like planting a kinky seed in his memory that would grow and grow the more he visited it. It was divine torment to have him inside her, those pearls were still forced open, tugging on her clit... Making that tender little bit jump and snap with every pulse of his well used cock. She honestly thought she had bitten off a lot more than she could chew with those panties, there was no way she could walk around with a pleasant expression on her face, not with that torment under her skirts... At his words a brow rose over those hazel hued eyes of hers, her heart skipping a beat, her nipples hardening... "Is that an Order? The book's lead into a few things like that..." She asked, looking down at him as if she could eat him up, a bright flash in her eyes for a moment... "Because remember... Turn about is fair play..." She crooned with her lips by his ear, the tip of her tongue gliding along the shell of it, pressing down so her small pert breasts were pressing to his chest evocativly... "I think I would have a lot of fun tying you up... Maybe our next visit..."

Like when he was gone for a week, when they sent naughty messages to each other through his bubbles, when he was wound up tighter than a jack-in-the-box ready to pop... Sliding off of him at last, the soft clank as the pearls came together once more, cum dribbling and dripping off of them onto his shaft... Rolling off of him as he tossed his head back onto the pillow she couldn't help but laugh just a touch. "It's only going to get worse you know... I adjusted a little in Arvandor since we were so... Ah?..." What's a good word for having sex as soon as he could get hard again? Because that? Was pretty legitimate... She let out a shy little giggle with a shrug of her shoulders... Her hips swaying hypnotically as she walked, her heart shaped ass with all that perfect bounce and jiggle still clat in black lace with her thighs shimmered in bejeweled silk stockings... "Well... Yes... But now it might be weeks before we can see each other... Can you imagine how tight I'll be? Worse still we'll be virtually starving for each other..." They'd destroy each other in a heartbeat...

Grabbing a cloth and running it under warm water before she handed it to him, she had to stop him before he got the wrong idea... "Ruin my lovely little snack... Tch!" She clicked her tongue at him before she went to have her lovely post workout snack... And the way he watched her? His responses? Oh he had created a monster in that moment, she enjoyed every little flicker of emotion on his face, every twitch of reaction in his body FAR too much to pass up on it! This was certainly going to be a luscious little addiction for her. She finished up and fell into his side, curling up with him, her smile warm and so full of love. "Your dream... Would you ever want to wake up?" She wondered aloud before kissing over his heart... The confessions that followed shortly after...

His question made her heart hurt... What could she be frightened of? Besides reality breaking in and ruining the one dream she allowed herself to have? It went against every single method and mode of self preservation she had ever had, every rule drummed into her head at the orphanage, the cold reality of the world she lived in... To dream? Was begging, pleading with heart ache to come in, to shatter every soft and fragile emotion one could foster... She explained as best she could why she was afraid... His little card summoned in the air, the scent on vanilla on the paper, the gold leaf trim... Thick and weighted like all his personal stationary... She held that paper close to her heart for several moments while he answered her questions, speaking from his own heart, on how sometimes? Things just happen, good or bad, there's nothing to stop them... "What if... This happened to my mother? Something like this but he was a cad? Or what if he died?... For some reason, what ever it was, I was created and then just... Abandoned... Floated down the river like a bit of village trash..." And there it was... A huge chunk of her fear...

His return questions gave her a lot to think about, though those thoughts skittered about as he touched her, lifting her from the bed in his arms and out into the pool, and there?... She'd stand, overlooking the ocean, the chill night air caressing over her bare skin. Bedding down she took off those panties and set them on the side before taking a few cautious steps into the warmed water, making her gasp as the heated water licked at her skin, and after how hot they had gotten? It was incredibly luxurious on her bare skin... Making her moan a bit before she fully submerged herself in a sleep dive and swam to one edge... Back to the other before resting her arms up over the side as he came back, the wine and fruit in his hands as he came in to settle on the edge... "It was that elvish wine that got us into this situation... Is it spiked?..." She asked, and she was only half teasing honestly, because what ever they had been given at the little cottage? Made her crawl out of her skin with need until they couldn't so much as blink without pouncing each other. If it was she might have to pass because there was no way she could burn it off in the time they had...

The offered strawberry was wonderfully lush and too wonderful to pass up on and went up to him, her breath catching as he ran it over her lips, parting them to take a bite if he offered it. "I don't want to postpone... Once this baby is born if we get that far, I'm going to want to spend most of my time focusing on them until they're a bit more independent, I won't deviate enough time for studies... Especially a doctorate..." She didn't mention the rumors would probably slam her so far into the mud a good chunk of teachers wouldn't take her, and a majority of her own work would just be counted as his, as if she didn't do it herself but just parroted him... "I'm a nameless orphan, and I'm not using it as a crutch but we both know that it's going to make things a hundred times harder for me..." The fact was?... She sighed and rested her head on his knee. "The fact is if I were smart... I'd have an abortion before I get farther along..." Thought it wasn't said, the 'but' at the end of it was obvious felt, silently heard... "I don't think I want to... Maybe before I might have... I would have just handled it quick and painless before I thought about it... Before I got attached but now it's like..." She was so conflicted... "Like, this little creature fought through preventative tonics and some of the worst poisons a person can get hit with, they've fought through it all to live... What right do I to have to take that away? After surviving so much?"

Oh there was so much conflict on her face but when she looked at him? A bit of it melted away... She paused a moment and her own crackle started, the look of concentration on her face was pretty intense, being so untrained it took quadruple the effort for her than it would most... Still she got it in the end, that little photograph from the Inn, the one with the muted out portrait... The only thing she had in this world that came from her past, from her mother, or she always assumed... It was tiny, a simple memento mori in a gold frame, well worn by time and her frequent touches... She handed it to him and when he took it? She closed her fingers over his, trapping it in his palm, entrusting it to him... Even if her heart twisted a bit, fear and concern, it was so precious to her... But what was equally so? Was him... "If you ever want to call this off... If for some reason, some time later in life you don't want to be with me anymore, give it back..." Releasing his hand then she pushed herself out of the water a bit and kissed him softly, sweetly as their lips met, her hand pressing over his heart. "As for the baby..." She said with a shrug as she sunk back down in, taking up a glass of the wine, running her fingers along the fluted stem. "Well I just need to finish schooling fast... I wont show for a long time as an elf, right? So I got at least six months before I even sport a little bump... I haven't had any nausea since last night so it might have just been a fluke and I'll get out of this clear and clean..."

With all that sorted out she took a drink of that luscious wine with a grateful moan, her throat was a bit hoarse with all the moaning and crying out she'd done, so this? Incredibly lux... She would set it down then and take his hand in hers. "But you're askin about me, and you know, this isn't a singular sort of situation... You're in it too, just as much as I am, at least in regards to the baby... What do YOU want to do? You're reputation might take a hard hit, and we both know Grace is after you like a tick on a dog, albeit we can use it to our advantage it won't make things easier for you... And then you have Kit to take on, the crap with Ric and the girls too, all that drama back at the manse... You'll be facing it alone this time and it's unfair, when you think about it your only in that mess because of me, and now you have to clean it up solo..." A gentle shrug of her shoulder before she got to those steps and walked out, dripping water and naked as her name day in the golden hues of the setting sun, her hair slicked back and every inch of her on display... Draped in golden droplets of sunlight like a spiderweb with dew...

She reached down to him then, the music still playing on the inside, something romantic and soft... Once he was standing she would take his hands in hers, guiding them to her waist and the other holding her hand... "Teach me how to dance..." There might be dancing at the party and she didn't know two steps... "Teach me and talk to me... I want to know every thought in your heart right now... What's written on your beautiful soul..."

[Deleted]

he laughed a little when she apologised for the mirror.. giving a little shake of his head in response-.. not necessary really.. if Id known you had such naughty voyeuristic tendencies I would have put in more of them.. -he shot her a playful wink then.. tickling her sides just lightly.. the mirror behind them would quietly vanish.. its magical particles returning from where she had pulled them from.. -.. You will get the hang of it with practice.. When we head down to Arvandor my Family will give you a hand with it.. Sy and Belle would be happy to.. well.. Belle more so perhaps.. but they both harness different sorts of magic.. so you could learn something different from them both.. Sy.. well.. she's a bit tougher to crack.. but fiercely protective like a Mother Bear when you have her in your corner..

-his fingers glided along her arms.. through her hair.. he offered her the apartment for whenever she wanted it.. she had a key to it now, she could come and go as she pleased.. it just depended on wether or not she wanted to stay with Barathon fulltime or not.. -.. Whats mine is yours my dear.. -he responded to her quiet little thankyou.. her fears come out to play then.. her worries on where they would go from there.. her worries and concerns about their growing child.. he toyed with a little magical energy of his own then.. a little white card appearing with his beautifully perfect script written across it.. it would be a small reminder.. that he meant it.. all of it.. he would never lie to her..

he brushed his lips to her forehead when she spoke about her mother.. -.. We will find out what happened to your Mother Rose, for in as much as locating information like this isn't necessarily going to be easy, it has to be out there somewhere..someone will know something.. we just need to figure out which rock to overturn thats all.. -he had picked her up from the bedding then and carried her out onto the balcony.. planting her feet down so she would feel the warmth of the water..he left her there as he went and grabbed the wine and fruit.. he offered her the bottle then.. her comment made his cheeks colour just a little-.. mm.. no this one is not laced.. I promise.. -he laughed.. waiting until she had taken a drink before he himself did much the same..

sliding down into the water then as he exhaled long and deeply.. it felt incredibly good..like almost too good.. he hadn't had the chance to really relax since they got back.. what with her getting ill and then the seminar and everything else.. so this was pure luxury.. he plucked up that strawberry.. brushing it against her lips..waiting until she had taken a bite.. he asked her if she wanted to postpone her studies.. what with everything going on.. her response made him nod.. -.. I understand.. yes of course..I figure it couldn't hurt to vocalise all avenues while we have a private moment.. the Pros and Cons.. -he waved his hand a little.. he leant back against the brickwork then.. more or less just floating as he watched and listened to her.. he tilted his head when she spoke about getting an abortion and how its possibly something she should have done.. but how now she was certain she just couldn't.. he didn't want to interrupt her.. she was releasing a great deal of pent up emotion and thought.. and he knew it needed to happen..

he knew it all had to come out for her to settle.. he felt that magical prickle once again.. before she handed him something.. he lifted it up.. the small picture within the golden frame.. he brushed his fingers across it.. turning it over.. looking at it properly.. she wanted to give it to him.. for him to hold.. and for him to use as a message if he wanted an out.. he wasn't really sure how he felt about that.. they shared a kiss.. it was soft and special.. just delicate there.. he reached across to place the little picture and its frame over on the small table near the wine bottle.. he didn't want it to get wet.. -.. I am not going to pretend that I know all the answers.. I am just as lost here as you are.. we are traversing this path together.. taking it step by step..

-he brushed some of that water up over his ink covered arms.. just allowing the warmth to envelope him whole.. -.. I'm not going to tell you what to do.. what you should or shouldn't do.. -he held his hands up-.. Whilst yes.. I had a part in helping you make that child.. in being there and enjoying every single moment of it.. Its your body.. you're the one that has to go through the next part.. I can be here.. of course.. in as much as I can..-afterall he wasn't going to be actually here much at all-.. but.. the rest is all you.. it can and will interrupt your studies.. it can and it will change your life.. it will change both of us.. pregnancy in elves is a little different to humans.. as I am sure you might have seen.. it goes a bit longer.. and in most elven races they dont get that big.. I am hoping your nausea is fleeting and very mild.. that could cause you some grief otherwise..

-he rubbed his lips together-.. I would be honoured to be a Father to this child.. I feel that things like this do happen for a reason.. and in some respects its lifes own way of testing us to see how we can work around it ..maybe its my goddess and her own intervention.. who knows the reasoning on just how that little bean managed to survive the I have no doubt many combinations and potions you took to try and make sure it did not plant.. -he laughed a little and nodded-.. Right now.. all I care about is you my dear Rose.. Your well being.. and Your future.. I will be there beside you no matter what you choose.. I promise you that..

-he turned to look at the little picture once more-.. I am torn.. about this.. -his gaze turned back to her then.. that duo of blue and green just drinking her in-.. This picture obviously means a lot to you.. I can tell.. I dont want to keep it from you.. if I wanted to end things. If I felt I needed an out.. as you put it.. I would talk to you.. I would tell you.. -he offered her a smile.. reaching across to her.. to take her fingers.. her hands in his-.. You mean the world to me.. and yes.. this thing between us has been incredibly quick.. and heated and passion driven and .. just Wow.. but I dont think any less of it because of that.. I dont think it not serious just because we dont have a few years under our belts..

-his hand rose to cradle her cheek.. fingers lightly caressing along that gentle curve-.. I'm not going anywhere.. -he stepped in closer.. his lips brushing to her forehead.. -.. Grace is not an issue.. she's an old Professor, someone that yes I do admire.. not for her personal choices.. but for her work and her business sense.. she is incredibly talented.. she's just well.. -he frowned a little-.. focused on the wrong things in life.. I do believe she is trying to weave her way back into my life.. I dont think she realised I was the head speaker of the seminar was going to be me.. which is why she didn't accept until the last moment.. her comments this afternoon and her general demenor show she might cause some issues, but nothing I cant handle.. You do not have to worry about her.. she is not a problem.. I assure you.. Dont worry about anything else.. the issues back at the Manse are not even registering in my mind right now..

-he offered her a smile-.. the only thing I have my mind on.. is directly infront of me.. -he watched her as she moved to step out of the water then.. how the sun glistened as it caught the golden colouring of her hair.. before she would reach down to him.. his brow rose a touch.. he moved back up the steps.. to meet her.. the pair of them standing upon the warmed balcony stones.. he was curious as to what it was she wanted.. before she asked him to teach her how to dance.. that she didn't know how.. and she was worried about tonight's event.. his smile widened a little more-..

I can assure you.. -he whispered-.. there will be dancing tonight.. there always is.. -he brushed his lips to her forehead.. his hands lifting from her dainty little waist..guiding along her arms.. to position her hands ..her left to his shoulder.. her right sliding down into his..fingers intertwining.. a little glide of fingers felt against her palm would have the music switching.. changing up just a little.. the tempo was slow but still had enough of a kick to get them moving..-..Id be honoured.. -he shot her a wink there as the music got a little louder ..he lifted her so her feet were pressed over his.. and he made those few quick steps.. guiding her to where her feet would need to plant.. to step.. to move ..the pair of them turning.. face to face.. eyes locked..

he looked down to her...holding her gaze as he swayed..he couldn't help that smile there for her-. ready to spin for me?.. he'd whisper.. turning his hand in hers as he elongated his arm.. turning her around though not letting her go before he drew her so smoothly back in toward him..spinning her around so her back was to him a moment where he gave her a sweet little squeeze -.. You're beautiful..

-he'd whisper as he dipped her to the side..straightening up to spin her out once more.. only to draw her back in facing him- Youl have quite a few eyes on you tonight I am sure of it..I wont be able to be with you all night unfortunately. though im sure you understand yes?.. -he'd sway with her a little more.. a few more steps.. before he would turn her around.. her back pressed to him.. one of his hands resting about her belly.. the other still holding her hand just to her side and they would sway.. his chin closer to her shoulder as he looked down to her-..Truthfully you will probably find most of the night quite boring.. but.. At least you will have Kit to keep you semi occupied.. -he pressed his lips to her cheek.. to her bare shoulder as they continued to sway to that music.. he turned her once more.. bringing her in closer.. face to face..she was picking up the steps just fine.. -.. see you're a natural..

"If I knew I would have asked you to do it." She said back with a soft laugh. "Every time we touch I'm learning something new about you, about me, and what we like..." Such as the mirror, or being spanked, or the ah... Starfish play... That she was still wrapping her head around, on one side it seemed to very taboo but on the other? It had felt amazing while he fingered her, to the point her toes had curled to near pain, her breath had caught more than once... She couldn't help the sudden, happy giggle as he tickled her, curling up quickly like a little pill bug and swatting at his hand playfully. The mirror was returned to the energy it came from, and it was the first time she'd seen him do something like that, her head tilting as she watched with a sort of fascination. It was like the ebb and flow of the ocean, what came onto shore, had to retreat back to it's former body... She was curious if there was such a thing with magic, some great source where they drew it from, and if so... Well, where was it? "I look forward to finding out just how they each are, even if your mother Sy as you call her, seems pretty intimidating."



Whats mine is yours... That's a husband and wife thing, and given the debacle with Cora for one, and the fact she knew he still had some feelings for her? It was... Complicated... A big part of her was still standing against that door, hand on the handle while draping chains over it, trying to brick the opening up... Refusing to let her peek inside that room full of hopes and dreams that could one day break her. "You shouldn't say things like that..." She whispered softly... It made her think of things that were probably better not thought about. She was confessing a lot of fears right now, like lancing an infected wound, she just had to get it all out... Things they hadn't had a chance to talk about, all this toxin had come up in a sudden burst and neither of them had gotten much time to talk about it, truthfully they'd had no time to talk about it at all so far... The little card was beautiful and very precious to her, holding it over her heart for several moments as they talked, her fears of repeating history... Unsure of what had happened to her mother, or her father, let alone the events that lead her to being floated down the river. "I wonder... If she is the one we should be looking for... Or if, maybe, it's someone else... What if she died and it was my father who did it instead? It makes it hard sometimes, there's nothing there, not even a blank page..."

There wasn't even ashes of something there, it was just a blank void that swallowed everything, all her questions and her musings... And gave nothing back.

Carried out to the pool was incredibly romantic, her fingers curled over his heart, her head on his shoulder before being sat down at the pools edge... Taking off those panties of course, last thing she needed was a wet pair beneath her, dress, after all she'd only bought the one outfit... For now... The offer of wine though, she couldn't help but ask, and with plenty of good reasons! They'd only had wine and spirits at the cabin and they were both so drugged up with liquid lust that they literally couldn't have held off of fornicating if there was a brick wall between them. "Good because we don't have the time it would take to burn it off otherwise." She said, looking up at him under lowered lashes, perfectly aware he knew just what she was talking about. She took the glass of wine and took several sips, it truly was as sweet as summer time, berries and melons with hints of citrus, absolutely beautiful... And easily a favorite... "These things are coming at us faster than we can catch them it feels like... And I hate to bring it up so close to a party and after such an... Amazing act of love making... But I won't commit any of this to paper, it's just begging for trouble to crop up, and so much of it needs said..." Like... Desperately so.

Pent up emotion was one way of putting it, another was just a rat race inside her head, thoughts chasing each other around, cannibalizing each other to try and gain dominance... She couldn't focus on any single one to try and find a solution, they kept running away from her grasping fingers, slipping like sand through her hands... She summoned up the picture, faded and invisible from being submerged in the water of her basket as a baby, the little golden frame it rested in... The words she said? She meant. Just as much as she meant the kiss they shared in that moment, soft and sweet like a toasted marshmallow, and just as warm... She watched him pull the water up over those beautiful inked arms, letting him speak now, the two of them? Well if they had nothing else going for them their communication skills were on point... Shed didn't interrupt even though there were parts she wanted to, she held off, she preferred to wait till the end. "You might be ok with that... But I'm not... I don't think I could bear to hear you say those words to me, at least the return of the photo frame, I'd have something happy in that moment..." To keep her form full on despair... He might be able to say it to her, but just because he could say it, didn't mean she could listen to it. Especially not with how she already felt... How she was feeling every day, the way it grew more and more, evolving in a continuous loop that just continued to expand...

"I know that the one to feel and experience all this first hand is going to be me. You, while beautiful, are no seahorse and last I checked you lack the proper pouch too." She teased just lightly, taking away some of the seriousness of the moment, giving it a bit of warmth and a touch of laughter to the situation. "You had a hand in making this little creature, but every man plays that part, and only maybe ten percent of them stay..." She'd seen it SO many times back at the whore house, she had never once seen a single man stay around, not once... And the poor girls who fell beneath the pressure of an older man or... God helping them... Their relations? Those women were put through even more hell than the working girls... Her situation wasn't either one, she and Jacob had fallen into love first, and then sex... So they at least kept it in somewhat of an order... But the baby was still way too early... A sudden explosion like a firework despite how much she was trying to soak it... "This baby will take me over, mind and body, I know that much at least... But that scares me even more..." How much would change? Mary had seemed like a wraith wandering the halls, pathetically skinny everywhere else but her stomach which seemed grotesquely bloated, how miserable that little girl was... It made her break out in cold sweats just remembering, her heart starting to go mad in her chest, her emotions, those flashbacks trying to take her over... All too close to the surface after the shit Grace pulled...

It would take several minutes before she got it under control, her arms crossed over her chest for a moment, two sides warring again... "I can handle your absences while this... Develops... But then the question is in return... Can you?" She asked back... It was his baby, his first child, would he be able to live with the fact that he'd miss much of her pregnancy in large chunks? She'd never seen a besotted father, never a man who was interested in his child's development before they arrived in the world, so she couldn't honestly say which way this might go... She saw him reaching out to her, taking his outstretched hands, linking their fingers as she moved in closer to him... "It is supposed to be like this?... Love? Which is it... The slow gradual blossoming? Or the rapid full bloom? Is there a difference between falling in love and just knowing when your in love? Can you just find your soulmate one day and realize this is the person your meant to be with?" She knew she wa asking so many questions but she needed to know... She wanted to be sure... If there even was such a thing... "What if we were soul mates before? What if our love... Is the kind of love where two souls find each other and start all over? And what if the slower blossoming of love is the first joining of souls that become soul mates?" Though if he were smart? He'd sick her on Hanali and let her pick the brains of his Goddess because she certainly had some interesting ideas...

The touch of his fingers on her cheeks was lush and she leaned into it, her eyes closing for a moment as he kissed her forehead, a small soft sigh escaping... "Let her try... Or at least appear to... The better she acts like she has you in her pocket the easier it will be for us, and to be honest, I'd prefer things to be easier..." She said with a light shrug of her shoulder. Jacob would likely down play it, it seemed that was just his way he wanted to be, always making things so much nicer than they were... Where as she? Was pretty sure that Grace wouldn't blink an eye at drugging and raping him in order to get what she wanted... Though it broke her heart that it was less Jacob she wanted and more so his pocket book... Which for she herself? Was the least important to her and the last thing she cared about. The crap at the manse made her miserable to think of but... Depending on how it went? "The manse might be easier actually... Barathon said Ric was up for a serious discussion with the board... If he leaves then the girls will pretty much be nothing more than they were before, a blip on the radar and no more... If they themselves don't get fired under the investigation..." Did she not mention that? She had casually dropped a note earlier today with the board of directors about the nurses and the strange fact that many patient deaths and abuse occurred under their watch... A few too much evidence on hand to be easily denied...

Slipping out of the water, she reached down to him, a smile on her face for the moment. "Is there now? And you still insist on those panties?" She asked with a brow raised... Walking was going to be a delicious torment enough as it was, but dancing, and more than one dance? AND they couldn't sneak off together?... Definitely more than she could handle... But would he let her out of it? Or would he hold her to these naughty mechanisms of hers, maybe delve into a different area of sex, of the relationships between men and women? Would he give her a somewhat gentle introduction to what he might want more of later? Or would he relent and take mercy on her, to never explore that side of what could be, what might be? She followed his guide but there was no helping the high, sweet little laugh as he lifted her up to stand on his feet, the bright happy blush coloring on her cheeks. "You my love, are far too precious, you know that? Let me know if I'm too heavy on your poor feet." She asked as he switched the music up, her head turning, that smile spreading. "Oooh I love this song..." She said softly as she began to sing along, following his steps as he made them, realizing for each step forward he made she should be taking one back... The two and for of leaves in the wind... Hmm... She might understand this a bit... He asked if she was ready to spin. "Why not? You have my head doing that every time your near..." Which was true... He always made her head spin when he was around, and that was just her head, the rest of her did funny, wonderful things too of course... She spun out for him beautifully, and if he was watching REALLY closely, he'd notice something was missing... But would he catch it?

She spun back into his arms before he gave her a soft squeeze, rising on her toes to gently bump the tip of her nose to his, a gentle kiss to the corner of his lips. "And your utterly handsome..." She said back as he dipped her then, a little gasp, her body stretching out for him... Her heart catching as she surrendered and let her head fall back before he drew her up slowly, her pupils dilating a touch, her lips parted on soft little breaths... "Of course... I plan on making very good use of that time... And make as many strong associations and possible friendships as I can..." She would need them too. She could blame a lot of the symptoms of pregnancy on the poisoning, her body stripped and weakened, it could be years before it would fully 'heal'... Or so she could claim... And then slip off to Arvandor to have their child when her time had come... But in between those moments? She needed allies, those higher in the field than even Barathon, people she could flex her mental muscle at... Hopefully able to convince a few to accelerate her learning in several areas, especially in herbology and plant based healing, chemistry and the like... Shortening the last of her eight months term to something more like four or six... Six was pushing it though, she'd be starting to show then she was sure, and she couldn't gamble that... "Plus I think Kit's little love interest will be there too... A student in Arvandor who came with Dr. Grace it seems... I look forward to shuffling those two together." She said with a smile and a wink before they moved together, a slow sway, and as he said... She was indeed a natural... She just had that built in grace... "Can you handle seeing someone with their hands on me in a dress, Jacob?"

The question seemed so...

Innocent...

She increased her grip on his shoulder just a little bit, a squeeze of her hand on his shoulder, the subtle sway of her hips against his with the music. "Especially considering what I'll be wearing under my dress..." She was tangling herself up with fire right now, she was damned well aware she was swimming in a lake of napalm... Did they have time? Should she even be daring this? "What if while I'm being swayed on the dance floor those pearls become too much?" It was a possibility, an easy one at that, given how he had them set... She leaned in close to his ear then, on her toes, nails lightly raking down his back. "What if he makes me cum?" She whispered, her tongue darting out to drag over the shell of his ear, to flick over the sensitive tip... Dancing them closer to the edge... "Could you handle that?... Another man making your Rose cum in a room full of your professors and peers?"

She was being EVIL...

Or was she?

She smiled suddenly then and with a little shove back, sent him toppling right into that heated pool with a loud splash where she'd be giggling on the side before stepping out of view... Taking a good run at the pool before jumping in with a loud happy yelp and cannon balling right next to him, surfacing with her hair over her face and laughing hard, trying to pull the long golden strands out of her face so she could see. Once she could? She'd reach back and start to peg him with strawberries, keeping out of reach, laughing the whole time... They'd been so serious earlier, too serious really, and while it had all needed talked about? It felt too heavy for one of the stolen moments they had together, and she chose to switch it up, looking like it was going to lead into sex... It still might later, but she was honestly testing the waters, wondering just what might lay under his professional veneer... After all, she'd seen little tells in bed, things the book talked about... Hinted at... And she was curious to see those new layers... But for right now? She wanted to laugh, and have him laugh with her, to play like a couple of kids... Like how they had in Arvandor in the heated pond outside that cabin...

..if someone had of told him that the conversation between them both would have gone down this path, he never would have believed it.. still he wasn't unhappy about it.. there was so much they needed to discuss.. and realistically they might not get another chance.. at least at length.. they needed to use the time they had to its fullest advantage.. she aired her fears to him.. of the love they shared.. of the child coming into the world.. and the future that was not yet written..

he spoke honesty in return.. the thoughts that were wandering his own mind.. giving her the option to make the final decision when it came to the child.. for in as much as he adored the idea of her being pregnant with his child.. he Loved her more.. and he would stand beside her no matter what happened.. or what she chose.. she asked if he would be able to handle the absences.. he would miss a lot of this pregnancy.. sure he could pop in every now and then but not as often as he would have liked.. -... It wont be easy sure, I wont lie.. and I dont like the idea of missing out on it all and not being here to help you when you need it.. -he exhaled softly-.. I dont really see another way though.. at least not at the moment.. anything could change.. -he nodded a little-.. I want to be there for you.. in every single which way possible.. I will do my best I promise.. -and thats really all he could do.. promise to do his best..

if he stayed here the rumours would fly full force.. if he was outed as the Father it would be known that they slept together when she was still his student.. and whilst it appeared Ricarnarvon was getting away with it all.. he knew he wouldn't.. they were on completely different levels.. reputation..expectation.. honour and respect.. -.. Love is a hard one.. it's different for different people.. what we feel.. -he motioned between them both-.. will be completely different to say.. what Kit feels, or what Faelon feels.. I guess.. it's just what works for those involved..Some need that hard fast passionate love.. some want something softer.. I am not going to pretend to know all the answers.. I havent really been in this position before.. at least.. not like this.. this.. is just as new to me as it is to you.. -and he meant it.. sure he'd had partners in the past.. numerous even.. but the way he felt for her.. was nothing he had experienced.. it was all new and very raw.. and he did not know what to make of it.. it hurt and it felt incredible.. all at the same time..

they spoke on Grace then..and how the woman was going to cause them a few issues.. they knew they could use it.. at least in the short term.. to get the heat off them so to speak.. so long as it didn't blow up in their faces..Grace was crafty..and had the general public eating from her hands so to speak.. -.. I too would prefer things were easier.. in as much as these secret rendezvous are incredibly hot.. -he shot her a playful wink-.. Id much rather just be with you.. anytime.. anywhere we wanted.. -he cradled her cheek lightly.. just barely touching.. fingers curling inward..

he leant in to press his lips to her forehead-.. Dont worry about the Manse and all the rest.. -he gave a little shake of his head-.. I dont think Ric will be returning to it.. I heard the council were going to handle the issue here.. and then a new Doctor would be taking Rics place back at the Manse and at the Hospital.. -his fingers caught a few strands of her hair.. sliding them back behind one of her ears.. -.. he wont be an issue.. none of them will be.. and while you are here.. I doubt you will have any issues.. what with Barathon having your back.. no one would dare..

-she slipped from the water then.. asking him to teach her how to dance.. he easily and graciously obliged.. a quick music change had them both swaying and spinning.. the two of them working incredibly well together really.. he pulled her up onto his feet so she could learn the steps.. he laughed when she spoke about being too heavy for him-.. Ha.. you my darling are as light as a feather.. -he offered her a dashing smile then.. guiding her to spin before drawing her back to him.. his arms holding her tight.. yet loose enough that they could move with ease.. they spoke more on the dinner tonight.. how he wouldn't be able to be at her side much.. that she would have to entertain herself a little.. before she taunted him with the idea of someone else dancing with her.. someone else having their hands upon her..

he tilted his head.. his gaze that striking blue and green regarded her and her seemingly innocent little question..he drew the corner of his lip inward when she reminded him about those pearls.. his heart took a couple of tumbles then.. just how was he going to react to seeing this happening?.. had he not entertained that thought perhaps?.. he knew full well it would have a dancing element, they always did.. before he blinked when the question of him handling another gentleman making her cum snapped him back into reality...his breath caught as he drew it in.. her back was to him at this stage.. pressed as the two of them swayed..

his grip upon her person tightened considerably.. one hand sliding forward and around.. snaking till his palm pressed to that tight little pussy of hers.. his fingers curling under.. not intrusive.. not.. exploring just holding.. claiming if you will...his breath.. hot and wet would soon be felt against her right ear..-.. I do believe we have been over this.. -he whispered softly.. the music still going on in the background as the two of them swayed left to right..-.. This is mine.. if anyone does make you cum.. and it isn't me.. well.. -his voice lowered a little-.. You'l be royally fucked.. and it wont be by me.. for at least a month.. understand?. -his teeth nipped at her ear lobe..-.. I was going to loosen those pearls a little.. so they didn't affect you quite so much.. maybe I wont now.. hmmm..

-She tormented him and he returned it...turn about was fair play afterall.. he released the hold he had upon her sweet little cunt then and she spun him about.. he was shoved easily into that pool of warm water.. he landed flailing a little.. quite a splash as he went under.. surfacing with a but of a splutter a moment or two later.. he laughed as he wiped at his eyes..slicking his hair back.. only to just catch sight of her landing right beside him with an even bigger splash.. he got a few mouthfuls of water.. spluttering some more as she surfaced a little while later.. he wiped at his eyes.. his hair once more as he laughed-.. You cheeky little brat..

-she began to peg him with strawberries.. with everything she could get her hands on.. it worried him none.. not a single bit.. he lunged at her.. she managed to dodge him.. he splashed her.. several times.. covering her in small walls of water.. the two of them had an absolute ball.. giggles and laughter.. yelling and a pool filled with fruit before he dived down under..surfacing suddenly in front of her.. capturing her in one hell of a bear hug..though he couldn't really see her.. with his hair plastered down over his forehead.. still the two of them were having an enormous amount of fun.. -.. You are far to cute.. Kiss me before I tickle you to death.. -the corners of his lips curled into a grin.. before they would share that sweet loving moment.. nothing untoward.. nothing lustful.. just two people who cared so very much about each other.. just being with one another.. -

we should probably start getting organised for tonight.. -he whispered against her lips.. releasing the hold he had upon her as he slicked back his hair once more-.. I think a showers in order.. you know.. just to freshen up..-he tilted his head.. looking to her there-.. how about.. we conserve water.. take one together?.. mm?.. -he moved to step out of the water then.. the artwork.. the ink along his arms and across the back of his shoulders on display..along with her getting quite an eyefull of that ass of his.. those strong muscular legs.. as he walked back into the apartment..the shower within the bathroom was quite large.. it had a wooden bench against the far wall.. the room steaming up considerably thanks to the warm running water and the cool breeze coming in from the open doors.. he sunk down to sit there.. -.. My lap could use some company.. going to join me?..he'd call out to her-

If they talked about it now, they could at least go to the dinner with a clean, clear conscience, and at least somewhat of an outline in regards to their future together. A path to walk, even if it was unknown, at least they would have picked one. It would do wonders for them, to be there on the same page, the same chapter in the same book. Imagine how many issues they were avoiding in the future, perhaps as early as tonight should things go sideways a touch, and with their group of enemies? That was more probable than not.



"To help?" She asked, unsure of just what he was meaning by that, if only because she wasn't sure how he wanted to be of use. Hold her hair? There were tie backs for that. Bring her food? If she wanted a healthy pregnancy and baby she better be moving her ass around to get it herself. No, there wasn't a thing she needed help with in regards to that sort of thing, she was a very strong woman... His little stick of tnt... "It's not help I'll miss... But... How about I promise, in as much as possible, if there's a big event? I'll message you right away and we'll meet up somewhere close to share it. This way you don't miss the big things..." It was a compromise, not just for him but for her too, another phase of meeting in the middle... Maybe it was better they started this as friends? They definitely were able to meet in the middle on the most important things... Which was honestly? Better than most.



The love thing though... That one was the most complicated, crazy, and flat out confusing part of it. Was it supposed to be fast or slow? Sudden or gradual? Strong or soft? Subtle or obvious? Was there a right way to fall in love? And in that same vein a wrong way as well? The book was oddly silent in that area, because it encouraged love in all ways, it didn't specify how one falls in love in the first place. She knew she loved Jacob, it felt unlike anything else she had known in her life, and with him? She just... She clicked. Like a broken machine suddenly revitalized with all it's missing parts, she was able to thrust herself into the light, to gain momentum to her dreams. He made a lot of things possible for her... She hoped she did enough in return. She knew she had brought him out of a depression, a state of mere existence versus living, showed him the world was still beyond the curtain he lived behind... Perhaps they were both just existing before they met each other and now?... Now the world was theirs...



If the people in it would leave them alone anyways...



"If it's hard it's worth it... You don't gain anything in this world without a little work, even existing takes the muscles of your chest to expand and contract, electrical pulses to make your heart beat... It's all work... Maybe love needs it's own effort too..." Was that what made it real? The difference between an infatuation and real love? The work you put into it? The willingness to stand against opposition and continue to march towards the sun?... "Our love is unique to us, I understand that, I just... Sometimes..." She paused, hending what she thought, what her fear was... He had loved Cora... Desperately, with a sort of fevered hunger, like a madness... "Sometimes I'm afraid... I've never been in love before and now with a baby on the way?... It feels a bit like swimming in the dark... I want to get my head up for air, to see clearly, to make sure I'm heading in the right direction..." Spoken softly as she reached for his hand, the ring there on his finger, her heart... Oh how her heart had swelled with pride knowing she had picked the right size, how much he had liked it, for he had to have liked it since he was wearing it... "I'm sometimes afraid you'll ask me to marry you because of the baby... It's what you did for Cora and I know how much that part of your life... It took so much out of you, it nearly smothered your light, your soul... If you ever remarry again..." If he did, and definitely not counting herself in the foregone outcome, she loved him but she wasn't going to put any eggs in a basket she wasn't sure of the bottom's integrity. "I want it to be because your really, truly, incredibly in love with that person. Not because of a baby or a feeling of obligation..." REaching out to trace her fingers over that ring. "It's a gift... Your as strong and wise as the old oak trees, you offer security and comfort to those who seek your presence, and you now have your own little acorn on the way... I hope the ring reminds you of just how powerful you are... Strong and true with straight conviction and deep roots..."



The bit about the manse though... It seemed Barathon was right and he hadn't made an idle threat, Ric was really about to lose everything he had seemed to work towards, and for what? Petty Jealousy... How could anyone want to throw away so much on something so petty? "I'm not worried about me, I'm worried about you, but if he's getting evaluated then perhaps that's for the best..." [/b] Though who would come? And would it be better? Or worse?... Thought she didn't think anyone could be worse than Ric... "At least going to visit you would be a good deal easier without someone ready to stir the pot with a lightning bolt..." It would definitely make getting down there easier... And if they could manage that, well, there might be a chance for this being a good deal of fun...



Asking him to teach her how to dance came with two perks... One, she would at least know some basic steps to the dance and two? It allowed them to be close, skin to skin, hand to hand... The way he lifted her onto his feet truly had made her smile and laugh, worried she might be a bit heavy, but thankfully she was quite short so lightness came with the deal. "Well then I won't have to apologise for any bruising I might incur upon your toes." She replied with a soft happy lau as they danced, as he dipped and spun her, and for the most part? So long as she didn't look down at her feet? They danced perfectly together, like an old couple, easily in sync with their steps and timing... Though maybe in order to keep her from watching his feet she had dared to play with fire and in the end? She had gotten burned...



His grip on her made her hiss softly, nails finding his skin and curling in, still moving in the dance but the chemistry had changed... Every time she did this or something similar she was feeling out the waters, exploring in the dark, trying to... Not figure him out, nothing so blunt or bland as that, but rather moreso... Be in harmony with him... A good lover listens and adapts, and he already knew how to please her, how to do so on an incredibly accurate and massively detailed way... But what did she know about pleasing him? That was what she wanted to learn, and while she knew a couple of things, such as he thoroughly enjoyed getting oral sex... Did he like being jealous? Did he enjoy a possessive streak? She'd danced around it once or twice, little hints or touches, and she thought she had an idea... A general feel for it... But his hand over her mons? The way he said without words just what he owned... "Do you want me to say yes Sir? Call you Daddy? Master?" She asked in a dulcet tone, so sweet and gently submissive, dipping her head onto his shoulder to look up... Sliding her hands away from his skin to rest over his hand and where he held it, the other coming to rest on the side of his neck, feeling his pulse under her palm... Wondering if it would skip and jump in excitement at seeing her go submissive or if it would remain steady... "Do you want to torment me Jacob?..." She asked, her free hand coming up to palm her breast, still adorably small, just a handful and nothing more... But beautifully perky and firm, incredibly shaped in such a way that made a man want to tarry for a bit, to lose himself in the curvature... "Tell me the truth, he honest with me and your nature, do you enjoy this?... The idea of bending me over your arm and to your will, knowing that I'll listen, unable to resist your captivating commands? Is this something you want in your life with me?" If it was? She would read up on it, try to understand it more, to get into the more complex nature of it... Not because it was something he wanted her to do, but because it was a currious thing, a power play between partners that was not only known? But thuroughly indulged... Was it something he would want all the time? What levels did he enjoy? So many questions... And again she was being shown just how many levels he had... Once he had answered though, he spun her around and she used that momentum, the steps in the dance to turn the tide, to toss him into the pool as he flailed before tipping in.



Laughter soon followed as she watched him go down, coming back up with a splutter and a shake, cannon balling in right next to him. They had enough seriousness, they'd been adults for long enough into their rendezvous, now it was time for some fun. She surfaced a moment later, spluttering herself as she tried to get her hair out of her face as she laughed, peeking under the golden curtain at him. "You called?" She replied in return to him calling her a cheeky little brat, laughing as she went to the edge of the pool to peg him with fruit, and the two of them? Oh what a joy... So much laughter could be heard, shrieks of unbridled joy and excitement, the pool looking a bit like a champagne fruit cocktail of some sort. She gave as good as she got, or tried to at least, but the bear hug was impossible to wriggle out of... She knew, cause she had tried, laughing the entire time before he said she was cute. She looked up and kissed him, full of smiles and sweet soft laughs, that meeting of a man and woman who knew how to indulge their inner child and have fun... "To death was a serious threat... I just had to comply..." She teased back before he spoke again...



Yes, they did indeed have to start to get ready, that much went without a doubt. She nodded her head and headed to the end of the pool with him, a grin on her lips as he said it was better to take one together, to conserve water and all... "Sure... I need to make sure none of my claw marks are going to show anyways, I am pretty sure I left some lovely ones on your fantastic gluteus maximus." She teased back and headed in with him, leaning down to pick up the almost empty wine bottle and finished it off herself, figuring a little liquid courage was going to do her a WORLD of good... And she might as well enjoy it before it got to that stage where she'd have to be very careful about alcohol. She didn't forget the panties either, she'd take them with her and head to the bathroom, giving them a quick wash in the sink since they were mostly lace... Patting them dry and making sure the pearls were cared for before hanging it on a hook for the towels... That was when he's mention his lap, a brow raised as she watched him there, his empty lap oh so tempting...



Did they have the time?



If they could do it in seven minutes in a hospital bed...



She walked towards him, as if she had every intent on sitting right in that offered lap, even reaching out to touch his shoulder... But she didn't sit in his lap. She sashayed right past him with that hypnotic pendulum swing of her hips as she got into the water first, pulling her hair over her shoulder so he could see her back, the water pooling a bit in the dip of her back before spilling over that beautiful ass... She'd turn around then and if he tried to get up? She'd shake her head and guide him right back down, her foot on his thigh then, gently running her soft perfectly manicured foot along his cock... Just a soft touch... Almost... Casual? But keeping him sitting there nonetheless...She would wash her hair, tending to her lovely golden locks till they were in a rich lather, rinsing them out... Whatever it was with her pregnancy, some new quirk or what but her pheromones were off the chart in that little space, her arousal so thick you could virtually see it on the air... Like flavorful notes on the steam he breathed in, sweet on the back of his throat, twining about his senses... All the while she would stroke his cock with the side of her foot... Applying conditioner, piling the mass atop her head to soak in the nutrients in the creme concotion, leaving her neck bare... Running her fingers along it...



Where he might want to put a collar?



Down the center of her breasts, her breath catching, her shoulders pressing against the wall behind her... Sliding her hands along her slippery, soapy skin that made her skin glow like a golden pearl, nipples rock hard despite the warmth of the space... She'd begin to toy with them, sliding sudsy fingers over her tight rosy peaks, unabashed and unashamed... Arousal dripping off of her as she moaned and wriggled a bit, her thighs coming in to press, her breath starting to catch... Twisting and flicking her nipples, dragging her thumb nail over them before she'd pinch them, finding something there... A twitch... A need?... She pinched them hard and cried out with a sudden and apparent delight, her back arching as she thrust her chest out, looking like an amber hued goddess there... Playing with herself like some sort of sex kitten, pinching and tugging her nipples over and over again as she slid her hand down, dipping under the water to rinse off... Sliding her legs open so he could see her core, her delicate fingers plying her clit, keeping those plump well fucked lips spread for his gaze... It didn't take her long before she was a sweetly sobbing mess of need and want, right on the verge of climax, every inch of her was tight as a cable about to snap... That was when she went to sit in his lap... Sliding his rock hard cock up into her in one fast sweet movement... Bottoming out intentionally as she made sure to swallow up every single aota of his cock inside her, rocking forward so her clit pressed against his skin, her breasts to his chest... She held him close then, wrapping her arms around his shoulders, cheek to cheek... "I love you Jacob Anikin..." She panted against his ear as she began to not fuck him... Not ride him...



Hardly anything so messy...



No, she settled in nice and deep, held him close... Their hearts pressed over one another as she slowly, sweetly began to ride him, dragging out every moment... Every sweet little movement was felt in every part of her body, her hands guiding his to rest over her ass, to hold her... Show her the pace he needed... Fingers finding themselves buried in his hair as they rocked together, her orgasm building, hotter and stronger... She kept pushing it but wouldn't let it complete, wanting to torment herself, to make herself ache... To hurt... To burn with it... She couldn't help her eyes closing, recalling the way he looked with his back to her, naked and utterly glorious... Fine lean muscles ink, so much strength in those lines but he never pushed it, never showed off just how powerful he could be... The way he held back and always remained her gentle protector... Inside and out he was perfect to her, drove her wild, and it just fueled those fires even hotter... She was burning up from it, from the need to climax as they rolled together in the gentlest of love makings, so soft and tender... Like poetry, like dance, like a melody their bodies sang together... So few could move so slowly, so luxuriously, to turn the act of sex into a nearly divine piece of moving art... It was all about pleasure, about finding nirvana, taking sex and turning into something utterly tantric... Both body and soul...



But at some point the body breaks, the soul bends...



She found herself unable to hold back her climax anymore, holding him tightly against her as she sunk down one last time, her fingers curling in against his skin... Holding him as her head fell back and she climaxed from the outside in, feeling it in every prickle of her pores down through her nerve endings, sparking her like a meteor shower... Surging through her muscles like a tsunami... Sinking deep into her bones like magma... She cried out in sweet, hot broken sobs, her body pulsing and jerking in rhythm atop of him... Milking him in a way so sweet he'd never get over it... Starting a new craving for them both as she sobbed over and over again, falling against him, into him as she clung desperately to his strong shoulders as the orgasm lasted longer... Longer still... All the extra blood flow from her body preparing for pregnancy, the incredible pleasured sex from earlier, the intimacy of the moment there... It all hit her at once, left and right, top to bottom... She was dragged under in a riptide of pleasure that didn't let her go for quite some time... Over a minute easily as she cried out over and over again, sweet high little whimpers, deep sultry moans... When it finally let her go she was too weak to move on her own, her legs were utterly gone, her breathing the most broken little stucco of pathetic inhalations had never been heard... "If... I wasn't already... Pregnant..." She whispered around broken breaths, with great effort pulling her head from his shoulder, looking him in the eyes... Her own dilated, heavy lidded, such a striking shade of emerald and amber... "I think... I'd be asking you... For a baby... Right now..." She panted before moving in to kiss him, heavy and hot, full of love and lust and longing... Moving one of his hands over her belly, holding it there as she slowly floated down from that high, her head still somewhere among the starts... "When all is... Said and done..." She said between kisses that were heavy on the tongue on her part, tasting and suckling every inch of his kiss, devouring him... "I'm happy... I'm having your baby... Really I am... I... Want this baby..." Maybe all it took was talking it out? Knowing where each other stood? Maybe it was that, combined with his possessiveness? Or was it the knowledge of where they were, both the good and bad to come of it, add in the possessive nature he seemed to have but kept hidden, and top it with what they had just shared in that moment? What ever it was though, she seemed to have come to terms with the state of her life as it currently stood, she made peace with it... And was happy with the outcome...



So it would be hard, since when had her life had ever been easy? As least these were hard because she wanted it, because she chose to become a doctor, because she chose to have unprotected sex with Jacob... Because she had chosen, in those moments there and then, not to terminate the baby... She was going to do this, full term, no matter what life tossed at her. She'd have this baby, no matter what...



She'd need his help to slide off of him though, her legs were shaking like leaves in the winter wind, her whole body like warm butter... She had to rest on the bed while he saw to himself, finding a quick little fifteen minute cat nap only to wake feeling restored, incredibly refreshed... A sudden spark of energy as she waited for him to finish in the bathroom before she would hand him the beautiful blue and white striped tie with subtle, high end detailing in the stitches, and a little added surprise... Sapphire cufflinks... All beautiful without being overrated.



She would disappear into the bedroom then with a warning for him not to peek, and there she would stay for about forty five minutes... Stretching into fifty... They were going to be late but she hadn't come out... Not yet... "Jacob... I don't think I can do this..." She said behind the door, obvious nerves in her voice, her hand on the door handle... She'd make him wait another minute before she came out in a dress that looked like it was made from the twilight sky... A beautiful captivating blue with a deep plunging corset neckline and looking as though it were covered in stardust...The back dipping low so that her torso was quite bare, but to break up the soft creamy expanse of her skin was a diamond and sapphire necklace in a deep v that rested just atop her collar bone... So delicate it made her look, elegant and refined, her neck long and shoulders sweetly shaped... Matching earrings in each ear that stretched up to the tips of her elvish points, a similar bracelet on one wrist and a ring on the other hand... Her hair done up in a simple but beautiful double gibson, tendrils down around her ears to frame her face, to show off the outfit and jewelry... A soft clear gloss over her lips with just a hint of red to it, a subtle smokey eye in warm browns and purples to make her eyes virtually glow and snap, mascara to darken her lashes... "I don't..." She hedged, stepping out of the doorway, the hint of sapphire hued slippers peeking out under it... The click of a heel that gave her a few inches... "I-..." She was nervous, bashful even, her cheeks naturally pink as she looked down...Her fingers twisting and untwisting infront of her skirt... "Do I... Look ok?"

she had spoken of her worry then.. openly of him wanting to marry her because she was pregnant.. it was what had happened with Cora.. so history did sometimes repeat itself.. he nodded-.. Whilst it would be the ..Honorable thing to do.. no.. that was not my intention.. thats not to say it wont happen.. sometime in the future.. I -hesitation-.. there is so much going on right now.. between us and around us.. For in as much as we have enjoyed each others company.. and.. yes.. -his cheeks coloured a little more-.. we have most certainly done that.. We have loved and explored.. we have communicated and just got to know one another.. I want more than that.. I want you to meet my family and see my homeland properly.. I want you to be sure.. in yourself too that this is what you want.. that I am what you want..

-he knew her experience in relationships was slight.. it was small.. and almost non existent.. her past was more than a little broken.. -.. everyone seems to be in such a rush to do everything these days.. Im .. I guess a little old fashioned and I hold my traditions and honour to an incredibly high degree.. -he tilted his head-.. I want to learn you Rose.. I want to know all there is to know.. I want to see you at your best and your worst.. I want to be there when you experience things you havent before and when I too experience things I have yet to.. I also just want to be with you.. without worry of who see's.. of who's going to start rumours.. or concern over reputations.. I dont know if you know of our traditions.. of Elvish law when it comes to marriage.. something I did not follow with Cora.. not properly and.. I paid for it.. for if I had of listened to my family.. my goddess and my head.. I might not have fallen quite so far.. I'm a paramour.. of all people who should know better.. it had to be me thats the rebel..

-he laughed a little.. he wasn't sure if she knew what the rules were.. what they had to do to even get to the courtship stage.. and whilst it would appear they skipped a few steps depending on which racial passage of which book you followed.. Sex and courtship fell into different categories in Arvandor.. Marriage another completely.. -..I love you I do.. a lot.. I wont do anything with you out of sheer obligation.. anything I do with you angel.. is because I want too.. I promise you that..-they shared a sweethearted little kiss.. it was delicate.. soft.. before she wished to learn how to dance.. he quickly obliged having spent a great deal of his youth learning all manner of steps.. the two of them danced like a dream.. fit together like the perfect puzzle pieces..

before she flicked the switch on him and he turned it right back around on her.. laying his claim upon her.. making sure she understood just how possessive he could be.. she asked him if he wanted to be referred to as Sir, Daddy perhaps.. or even Master?.. he chuckled softly there near to her ear.. -.. Just Jacob is fine.. -his tone.. his voice had shifted a little.. turning a touch deeper.. when she felt his pulse though it would be a thick steady rhythm .. a little quick.. but not all over the place.. he had it very controlled.. she asked him then.. about his nature..did he desire to bend her to his will.. he rubbed his lips together.. -.. mmm.. I am a walking contradiction my dear..

-he spoke softly into her ear.. his hot wet breath caressing along the delicate curve of her neck.. dipping his head down as he began to ply his lips along that very same trail-.. Im what you would class a Switch.. if you're looking to do a little.. research.. -another few kisses.. not going so far as to bite or even nibble.. he didn't want to leave marks on her when he knew they had an event that night..-.. however.. this right here.. -his fingers curled under.. cupping her pussy-.. is mine.. Ill stand by that.. if you do cum and its not by my hands.. words or actions.. then I wont fuck you.. for at least a month..I will loosen those pearls a little.. so you can walk around at least.. sitting though.. might be an issue.. and if you dance a little too vigorously.. well..it wll probably feel spectacular.. just remember my warning.. thats all..

-he spun her then.. and she got him good.. he ended up tumbling down into the pool with one hell of a splash.. she followed.. the two of them acting like children.. fruit going flying.. laughter and splashes.. water everywhere.. and yet they had a complete ball with it.. he couldn't recall the last time he had laughed so much in his life.. time however was ticking on and they would need to get ready soon.. he called her to join him in the shower.. sinking himself down to sit there upon the wooden bench.. the water flowed all around them.. hot and soothing.. steam rising in puffs and clouds.. he caught sight of her there.. sashaying toward him.. fully expecting her to come and do as he asked.. to come sit on this lap of his. but no she had other ideas.. putting on a bit of a show.. -.. Just what are you up to mm?..

-he'd question.. watching as that water cascaded down her utterly gorgeous frame.. down over that perfectly plump heart shaped ass.. it wouldn't take much for that cock of his to become rigid.. growing harder.. and harder the more he observed.. his knuckles were white as he gripped the sides of the bench .. her foot rubbing against his cock though.. that earnt her a groan...a growl as she tormented him.. his toes curled when she pressed back against the wall..

watching her hands sliding slippery soap down the front .. down between that supple valley.. his mouth dropped open and a rather shaky breath surfaced.. he forced himself to clear his throat..-.. You tease.. -he whined a little.. his right hand rose. meeting that massaging foot of hers.. to stroke himself.. to glide his curled fingers up and down that thick incredibly hard shaft of his.. he watched her toying with those tight little pink buds.. tugging and teasing herself.. her cry made him groan.. made him shift there upon that seat as he gripped his cock harder.. he watched her fingers.

..her hand like a hawk.. lower.. lower.. before she parted her thighs and she displayed herself for him.. he swallowed-.. Fuck.. -he exhaled-.. Rose.. I need you.. -before she heeded his call and she closed that gap quickly.. her smooth soft skin felt beneath his hands.. straddling him there upon that seat as she glided that cock up into her.. he groaned loudly.. she was so so tight.. so slick and smooth.. she bottomed out so quickly.. there was none of him left.. he was buried so deep within her.. feeling every throb.. every quiver and tremble.. her body pressed to his.. those beautiful globes to his chest.. his forehead found her shoulder as she whispered into his ear her profession of love..-.. I love you Rose.. -his voice trembled a little.. hearing her panting.. feeling her warmth.. her closeness..this time was different.

. slower.. smoother.. controlled and yet with enough passion it would have set the entire building on fire.. they didn't need any drugs.. any laced wine or lust dust.. this was just their love and desire showing through.. they couldn't be without one another.. they couldn't truly be apart.. they needed this.. they just fit..perfectly.. she rocked against him and he lifted up to her.. his hands falling to rest upon her ass.. to cup it.. to hold it.. to control her every so often as his lips found her shoulder.. that sweet spot where her neck curved..

it felt incredible.. it was like an out of body experience.. she was pushing him.. letting him feel her..he was showing her what he wanted.. and also letting her take control..just two perfect bodies working together in unison.. eyes locked.. frustration and pleasure evident deeply within those pupils.. hidden behind the vibrant colours they both wore.. before they could hold back no longer.. he felt her gripping him tighter.. the pressure within her rose just like it did with him.. and together they would topple off the edge.. falling free as the climax hit them both at the same time.. she rocked her head back and he cried out.. his body jerking forward.. up into her as he painted her.. every single possible inch..unable to hold back.. it was a moment.. a special moment that a lot of lovers never truly experienced.. an addiction.. a craving developing there.. that soon they would not be able to sate so easily..

his head was pressed back to the tiled wall .. breathing deeply as he tried to regain some form of composure.. watching as she slowly lifted hers.. catching her eyes then as she spoke on the pregnancy.. the corners of his lips curled then and he attempted a weak little laugh... his hand rose as he brushed her hair back behind her ears-.. I dont think you'd have much of a choice after that.. if you werent already pregnant you would be now.. -they shared that kiss.. hot..and heavy.. it was full of desire.. of longing of a need that far outweighed the physical acts of sex..they needed each other.. truly needed.. she told him she wanted his baby.. she was happy to be having it.. he murmured softly in reply-.. good.. I wouldn't want to be with anyone else.. just you.. -another kiss.. before the two of them would sit there.. just letting the water flow over them as a pair.. before he would help her to her feet.. making sure she had her balance as her legs seemed a little shaky..

she desired the bedroom.. needing the time to get dressed.. to get organised.. so he took the bathroom.. she handed him the tie.. and then the cufflinks-.. Oh now these are perfect.. -he shot her a wink-.. Thankyou.. I'll leave you to get ready then.. -he drew the door closed.. as he himself began to organise his own attire.. it was a formal event afterall.. so he would easily slip into an extremley well tailored suit..crisp white shirt.. that stunning tie.. a comb back through his hair.. a little cologne.. he was a guy.. it never took a really long time to get organised not really.. his brow rose though when she spoke about being unsure that she could do this..he paused-.. Whats wrong?.. -hed call out to her.. curious.. reaching for the handle before noting she wanted a few more minutes.. he grasped the cufflinks then.. sliding one into place as he drew the door open..

lifting his gaze.. looking down into the bedroom.. though by this stage she was out of view.. -.. is everything ok?.. -his voice was laced with concern.. before she finally stepped into view and he stopped.. he froze.. blinking the once.. his lips parted a little.. and he managed to drop the cufflinks.. hearing it bounce a few times upon the polished wooden floor..-.. Oh my god.. -he breathed out the words.. his heart had taken more than a few leaps there in his chest..-.. You are stunning.. Wow.. -he blinked-.. I mean.. you're gorgeous every day no matter what you wear angel.. but.. Wow.. -he crouched down to pick up the cufflink he had dropped there.. quickly sliding it into place as he locked it-.. I almost dont want to let you go tonight.. You're going to have So many eyes on you.. Fuck you're beautiful..

-he offered her a smile there as he moved to approach her.. seeing the outfit in its entirety.. the full skirt.. the bare shoulders.. the hair.. the jewellery and the shoes.. -.. Magnificent.. I imagine a certain pink haired pixie would be very.. Very proud.. -he reached across to lightly brush his fingers across her cheek-.. I dont want to touch you for fear of wrinkling you.. -he shot her a playful wink then-.. You have nothing to worry about.. I promise.. -he offered her his arm then.. waiting for her to link it as she would have felt the prickle of magic in the air.. a mirror appearing before them..so she could see how they looked together in all their finery-.. see.. look at you.. -he would allow her to look there for a little while.. so she could see how in awe he was of her.. he was just smitten.. there was no denying it.. -.. I only wish we could go together.. I will go first..

-he glided his hands down to let his fingers intertwine with one of hers.. lifting it up to press his lips to the back of her palm-.. Ill have a carriage pull up to the front a little while after I'm gone.. there shoudn't really be anyone around.. you shouldn't have much of an issue getting out.. the youth will be at the student event.. and the seniors should either still be getting ready and organised.. Or already there.. -he turned her to face him as his hands came down to rest upon her shoulders-.. Are you going to be ok?.. -he'd question.. leaning in to claim her lips.. just lightly.. just gently.. not wanting to ruin her makeup.. or anything else she had going on.. before he heard the door tap.. it was his rider.. his carriage arriving.. they wouldn't be able to see that far into the apartment.. -.. I'll be right down Joseph.. -he called out.. lingering there for a moment longer.. -.. Ill see you soon angel..

-he'd whisper.. holding her hand a little longer before he moved to step out of the building.. letting the door come to a secure close behind him.. he made his way down the stairs.. and into the carriage.. his poor heart was thudding in his chest.. did she honestly not know how beautiful she was?.. he was aghast at that.. he felt incredibly lucky .. Incredibly so that she gave him the time of day.. let alone anything else..


The Venue was a large open room, its lighting was soft in violet tones.. there was a big open dance floor in the middle.. tables dotted around it.. all beautifully dressed with fresh flowers and candles.. each place setting had a name card.. all seats were allocated..the council table was the longer one.. Barathon had a place setting there.. Seniors were at another table.. there was a setting for him, Faelon and his wife, Grace had been placed to his left.. though there was an empty seat beside her.. Ricarnarvons original place setting perhaps?.. depending on what time she arrived the place would be filling with people.. So many Doctors and Professors with such high influence.. all dressed impeccably.. the men in their suits and the women in such a beautiful array of colours.. from soft pale hues.. to the richer jewel tones..some a little more risque than others.. but none distasteful.. Grace of course chose something form fitting.. glistening with an incredible amount of beading.. and showing off just enough of that quite buxom chest of hers.. he would be off to the side.. talking with one of the Council.. a drink in hand.. fitting in just a glove really.. though he wasn't a huge social butterfly.. when he was in the right element it just worked

Some women might be hurt by that denial, but her? She was thankful for it, felt incredibly blessed actually... The last thing she wanted was him to ask her to marry him out of something like an obligation, she had never once in her life found anyone who had been made happy by such a union, anymore than she had with arranged marriages. He was so understanding in this, he wanted to wait just like she did, to just see where it went... Where it could go, what it might become, what it might grow into... Rushing into it? It just wasn't them, neither of them were prone to brash decisions, to rapid flights of fancy or choices done on the fly... "Oh thank God..." She breathed a sigh of relief when he had said his peace, and honestly, she meant every word of it. It was like he had just shoved a giant block from her shoulders, she felt so much lighter, she could breathe easier... "I'm so happy to hear you say that. Most women might not but I mean... It's true, all of it, and it's insane to rush into it..." She didn't want to imagine any proposal from him being forced out of obligation or something, if he ever did propose, she wanted it to be for all the right reasons... And not a damn one of them having to do with duty or public opinion. She sure as hell wasn't the first woman to get pregnant out of wedlock, and she'd be far from the last too, without a doubt. "I don't know about the traditions yet, I haven't actually rolled around into that book, I've mostly kept to the medical books and you know... That other one..." Being on pleasure and everything related to sex in regards to Hanali and the Paramours... That one was her 'break book' which meant that she used it as a refresher, to give her brain a chance to reset and relax, to go into something other than the medical aspects of life...



"To be honest I am no where near ready for marriage... I don't even know if it's something I want." Sure, legitimacy for children was great and all, but look at her? She was a no name orphan and sure, she had to fight, but she wasn't exactly locked out of everything. It was just a bit more work but it definitely ensured that what she was doing? Was what she wanted to do with her whole heart. "I was thinking about going back home when I'm close to due... Back to the little tea shop and finish my time there... Maybe buy a little house and work there till the baby's old enough for school..." She couldn't see herself being able to be a good mum if she was constantly on call at the hospital, away from home at all hours of the day or night, prioritizing people over her own baby... It didn't sit right with her, it felt weird, totally alien... He might not like the idea of it but in all honesty? He didn't get much say in how she chose to spend her days, they loved each other but she knew he wouldn't tell her what to do anymore than she would tell him, it just wasn't how they worked.



"I love you with my whole heart Jacob, even if our loves new, I know that I am saying the truth with absolute conviction. I love you, I will always love you, and that's never going to change I promise." But loving someone and being with them sometimes didn't always coincide. Right now they both knew they were being ripped away from each other, hours of travel apart from one another, where their lives would be quite separate and very different than the happy little niche they once occupied as a unit. They shared that soft, sweet little dulcet kiss before she asked him to show her some steps of dance, the two of them floating like a feather and wind together... Just that ideal harmony... She couldn't resist the teasing, the questions she asked, it was a genuine curiosity... Wanting to discover him, his quicks, the twists and turns of his sexual nature... And he was very quick in correcting her, laying down his own laws, his behavior possessive... She didn't hate that part of him either, but she wanted to learn more, and asked if he wanted a title... She'd been reading that section of the book after all, some people were mentally predisposed to that sort of play, and if that was his kink? Well it might be important to know. He wanted no title, and as he spoke he explained what he was, a switch... Curious... She hadn't come across it but she would certainly look it up in the very near future, but that was a fleeting thought in the moment, because his hands were on a VERY luscious place... "I do love a bit of research into an unknown field..." She exhaled almost on a whine, her thighs clenching gently around his hand, unable to resist the flutters there... Such dirty words... Naughty thoughts floating into her head... "I have to confess... When you do this to me... Hands on my skin and telling me I'm yours... It's an outrageously huge turn on... I absolute love it..." She confessed as he mentioned at least loosening the pearls... Thank GOD... A month without him fucking her because of those pearls being a little too thorough sounded virtually impossible, not to mention a whole new kind of hell... "I promise I'll remember... But if I get too close I WILL drag you somewhere... So you better find a ready list of excuses..." It was at least a heads up, and one she fully intended to follow through with, without a doubt.



Next thing he would know he was in the large pool and she reminded him what it felt like to be a kid, to have fun with someone you loved, to just laugh for the sake of laughter... And they could easily play together like a couple of childhood friends, thick as thieves and after nothing more than a good time, to laugh and smile and play... Enjoying themselves thoroughly before it was shower time, a chance to freshen up and get ready for this incredibly high end party, one that... Well to be quite honest? She was rather intimidated by it but she also knew there would be few chances like this in her life to make the associations that she could there... Besides all that? A shower sounded quite nice, though she couldn't help the smile at his offered lap, how could she resist?



A bit easier than he might have imagined, but that was only because she had an idea, something that had come up in their little dance... He said he was a switch, his heart didn't race at the idea of dominating her, but maybe... He might like something a little different... It wasn't hard to figure out the general meaning of a switch, it wasn't rocket science after all, but it WAS still a touch vague... She'd explore a little more now by taking control of the situation, keeping him sitting on that bench as she began to shower in front of him, taking it a step farther... Touching herself, teasing herself with her hands, plucking and stroking over her tits... Her soft skinned foot caressing the outside of his cock as he got hard, crying out softly as she worked herself up to a fine little frenzy, keeping him there against the wall... Not allowing him to get up and touch her, she kept the control in this situation, sliding her hand lower to touch herself... To toy with her clit and tits, feeling his hand along her foot, taking over as he jerked off... He liked this without a doubt then, he enjoyed watching her, the way she'd put on a show for him...



She finished her shower and her little show by the time he called out to her, saying he needed her, and she was more than happy to oblige... What followed? It was more than she expected, what she had intended was something slow and sweet while she held herself back from her own orgasm for a bit, but this? Was so much more evolved than she had intended... It went beyond sex, beyond the entrance and exits, the invasion and retreat of two bodies... It felt so much more intimate and personal, like souls touching, entwining... A red ribbon of fate stitching them together at sinew and bone, into their soul's from heart to heart, binding them as one... She couldn't help the confession of love that spilled from her lips, hearing his own in return, their bodies trembling in ways that went beyond sheer physical pleasure...



They didn't need anything other than each other... They could enact with one another acts as intimate, sweet and close as anything fueled by the lust dust and potions slipped into wine and food, all they needed? Was one another... Their bodies moved in perfect unison, not with an ideal rhythm with the steady tick tock of a clock but rather the melodies of their hearts, the beats of their bodies as they slid in and down on one another... They had a cadence all their own, their own pulse and flow that allowed them to reach places they'd never find with another person, just a physical sign of proof that they were indeed so perfectly matched... Even moreso when they found their peak at the same time, shared cries of pleasure, bodies shaking and spasming... His cock throbbing and swelling as hers got tighter and hotter, milking him for all he was worth as he ensured he was anchored deep, flooding her... Collapsing against and into one another, trying to catch their breaths, their hearts a rapid pitter patter of beats...



It took a lot to confess how her feelings had shifted and solidified, how through their talking she was able to cement her own thoughts, to find her footing in this new situation at last... She was happy about the baby... Sure it meant a lot of hard works, long days and nights, pain and fatigue... But it was her choice, her life and her body, and she had made that choice... She chose to have their baby and come with each day as it came, to stop worrying about tomorrow, it wasn't even guaranteed to be there after all... His strangled laugh, his breathless voice, the almost smug little smile on his face... "Is that so? And you look all too pleased by that fact too, little cretin..." She said with her own watered down laugh as she still couldn't get her breathing right just yet, just deliciously fatigued and worn out, that ideal sort of lethargy after a REALLY good round of sex...



A few more minutes shared under the water before they finished cleaning up and got out, she was grateful for his help with walking, her legs still weren't quite on talking terms with her yet. He'd definately taken them from her in that shower and it might take a few more minutes still before she was steady on them. She gave him his tie and the cufflinks then, the smile on her face was softly radiant as he thanked her, stating they were perfect. That certainly made her feel good in her choices for him... "I thought the colors would compliment your beautiful eyes..." She said with a warm smile and a soft kiss to his cheek. She took the bedroom as he got the bathroom to get dressed in, and while he was faster being a man, she had less to put on... Just those pearl panties and her dress, no need for a bra or anything of the sort, especially with the corseted top... Her hair wasn't too hard, the design was elegant but simple, which made it all the more fetching... The most elaborate was her jewelry, the set was on loan of course, the store was having her wear it to show it off at the gathering... Nothing like free advertising after all. Still, despite the fact that a majority of her clothes spoke of an understated elegance and beauty, she still felt massively overdressed... To the point that when he tried to come out? She stopped him, hand on the handle as she tried to gather her courage, to get her head and her heart together in tandem...



"I'm scared..." She confessed as he asked what was wrong, she felt she was overdressed, all at the same time feeling that she might also be very underdressed. Which was it? Did she look alright? Was her dress ok? Was the neckline too low? Too high? Was her hair right for this dress or was it too simple? Should she add flowers or pins? A jeweled comb? She felt incredibly self-conscious in these moments, to the point where she was almost having a panic attack, true and genuine fear of the event was creeping up on her... "I'm ok I just... I don't know if I can go... If I look right..." She answered before she stepped around the corner so he could hear her, the soft rustle of silk taffeta under her dress, like the whispering of angel wings... With each step her dress glittered and flashed like thousands of stars, it was mesmerizing without a doubt, and it would be obvious that when she danced? Her dress would be a thing of incredible beauty to behold. "I don't know Jacob... Now with all it on I feel incredibly nervous... I'm on pins and needles that I won't fit in, I'll either be over, or underdressed..." But some of those fears faded away at his reaction, he looked like he was seeing something truly beautiful for the first time, and it made her feel warm on the inside out to know he had that expression... While looking at her. "I could say the same you know... I don't think I'll ever get over seeing you in a suit... You look utterly and captivatingly handsome Jacob..." And he did, his suits were always so perfectly tailored, the colors and fabrics were perfect... All the way down to his tie and shoe choices... He looks just... Incredible.



They stood together for a moment before he mentioned Anouk and she smiled a bit. "Shes a good teacher and I am a fast learner... She said I have beautiful breasts and there was no point in hiding them all the time..." So she chose something low cut, something that showed off the creamy expanse of her chest and shoulders, the soft sprinklings of a sort of glittered powder here and there... Highlighting all the right areas... The darker eye and soft tinted lips made it all just pop so beautifully, as though she and the dress were made for each other, each complimenting the other... Like a rose and the color of it's petals... She noticed the prickle of magic in the air, making her shiver a bit before the mirror appeared, tilting her head as she looked at them. "We should do a portrait like this..." She said suddenly, a knee jerk utterance but it was true, they looked incredibly good together... She was much shorter than him but for some reason it worked with them, her petite frame and stature only highlighted his lean tall elegance, and his height made her seem all the more petite and delicate in stature and beauty... "Maybe a small oil painting or something like that... Something we can look back on with fond memories." It might be something to show their child later on down the road what their parents had looked like in their first few months together... The start of their relationship... There will be other events when we can... We'll step out together in grand fashion, set the city on it's ear and all that jazz..." She said with a smile as he kissed the back of her hand as their fingers linked, giving his hand a soft squeeze, her heart breaking a little at the fact their little bubble of time... Was popping.



The call was sent up then and it was time for him to go, nodding her head as he released her hand, his own coming up to rest on her shoulders, and she could only smile for him for a moment. "I promise I will be just fine... Just a bit of the pre-event jitters, I'll be just fine, you'll see... Now go, show off all your new discoveries and renew old acquaintances now that you're back among the living, I know there are many who have missed you and will be overjoyed at your return to the world." He had shut himself out of everything for so long, existing on the barest of levels, ignoring friends and colleagues alike in so many ways... But now? The fire was back in his soul, the light in his eyes, and he was once again ready to face the world with laughter and enthusiasm... And she had been the one to put her there, and no matter how dark he days might get, she could always find a little light in remembering how she had helped kindle his fire for life again.



When he left she took the card he had given her earlier and fitted it into her purse, hiding it like a secret treasure, something to be hoarded and protected like a dragon and his gold. It would find itself at home with the other little trinkets, the notes and flowers, the little ribons around bouquets... She had a veritable treasure trove of precious things they had shared... She waited several minutes, and then several more before she started to pace, wondering where the carriage was? Only when it did arrive? It was not what she expected, it was lacquered in gold and so elaborately carved she almost went cross eyed looking at it, looking left to right... Surely this wasnt hers? This thing looked fit to carry a sultan! But there it was... The door open, red velvet interior with an overhead lamp to display the ultimately luxurious seating, the footman becoming her in... What was Jacob up to? She looked at the man with a somewhat skeptical gaze but got in, settling herself down into the cushioned seat, only to spot a pair of blood red oxfords... 'Shit' she thought... She knew it was too good to be true, looking up she figured she would see Ric there, up to some sort of fuckery but instead? The man she saw made her jaw drop before she made an incredibly female squeal that could only be called 'fangirling'. She had both hands to her mouth as she almost bounced in her seat before realizing that the famous man whore she'd read about was also Jacobs father she immediately caught herself, turning her head to the side a bit with a lady like cough, composing herself quickly.



R: I'm sorry about that...



N: Oh don't be, it's quite flattering actually, I don't think I've quite heard that pitch in some years.



R: Really? I'm surprised. All the girls in the whore houses know you where I come from. You're would famous you know.



N: Oh I'm aware, but I haven't been to a whore house in years, and being a married man I definitely don't have a reason to visit them now.



R: Oh, I suppose you're right, you've been retired a long time now... Dropped off the face of the world by many dictated accounts... Which brings to mind what are you doing here?



N: You know it's a rare woman who can think around me, I'm impressed. What if I said I was here to kidnap you away?



R: I'd call bullshit frankly. I have nothing you'd want to take and Jacob would be pretty upset with you.



N: Jacob can't be made aware of the situation, it's his mother and he worries about her quite a bit, if he were made aware of the... Nature of your visit he'd be rather upset.



R: Are you asking me to keep this in client confidentiality then? To lie to Jacob about the nature of your visit and my hand in the following role? 



N: Yes I am. I understand you two are newly minted as the saying goes, but if there were anyone else I'd trust with a family matter I would find them, but you are the only one we have.



R: I appreciate the flattery, and the inclusion into family affairs in a way, but why me? What can I possibly do that you could not have a friend or doctor to assist with?



N: My wife is in the family way and the baby is making her exceptionally sick... To the point that she could die within a few weeks if it's not terminated.



R: And how are you aware that I know how to handle these situations?



N: Because I've been following your career and your work since you met Jacob and looked back from there, you are the village's abortionist, and you've helped stabilize the population and kept quite a few women from being made miserable.



R: You've paid that much attention? Now I'm the one that's flattered. Why do you want this baby aborted? She might be sick but there could be something much easier to help her with her situation? Does she want this baby terminated? 



N: Because it's the child of a rape and she has a very traumatic family past in regards to that. She wants nothing to do with the baby and she needs someone with a practiced hand that isn't her son. Pregnancy has always been hard on her but this one is especially so and the rape was incredibly violent which is putting too much strain on her delicate body.



R: I see... That's more than enough reason to want to terminate the pregnancy. I'll need the tools of course, and special herbs and the like to help with the act but yes... I can do it, I'll help as much as I can. I really do need to be at this party though, even if it's just for a half hour, I do need to make a few associations.  



N: Ah then please consider me your date for the night, your plus one as it were, we'll dance and mingle for a while before we go. Does that sound fair?


R: Of course... Thank you for understanding...


N: Well you're the one doing me a favor. I can spare an hour for your social needs since you'll be helping me with my situation.



She shrugged at that point, the door was closed and off they went, the entire time she was watching him with a sort of confused awe... This man who had made an impact on Jacob's life, the famous whore of the Black Dahlia, the only man to collect all eight diamonds... He was mind bogglingly handsome without a doubt, those pearls  in her panties felt WAY too tight around him, made her want to cross her legs but knowing such a movement was utter suicide... He had this undeniable aura around him, he just oozed confidence and sex, like he knew every little kink you had and just how to satisfy them... But more than that he had a sort of power too, something that compelled her, made her want to give him what he wanted... Was this where Jacob got his own aura? The way he knew how to compel her to bend to his pleasure? Was he the one who taught Jacob how to have sex? If so... Good lord help her... She was so poorly equipped...



The arrived and she had to admit that Nautilous had every single manner down pat, so flawless and elegant she felt like a stumbling dwarf elephant next to him, yet he somehow made her look graceful as a swan. The saying that sometimes a companion can make the set really shone through in that moment. Upon entry she gave her invitation to the bellman and the plus one filled by a Nautilous Deathaze... It went so smooth, part of it because as a set? They were mind boggling good looking, like Apollo and Athena, two golden haired elves with eyes of striking colors and softly gold tinted skin... They dropped jaws as they walked together, him in his red velvet suit and she in the vivid sky blue diamond scattered creation... He shone and she glittered... Honestly people's necks cracked and popped following them as they entered and she moved to mingle, flawlessly entering a conversation with a group of doctors on the topic of invasive parasites and their treatment, virtually glowing as she was able to speak with profound confidence and knowledge in the area... She mingled, navigated this way and that, gained all the right sorts of attention... Made all the right introductions and associations... She worked the room harder than she had ever done anything in her life, bee's would be drunk off of her sweetness, butter wouldn't melt in her mouth and the sun wouldn't shine compared to her radiance... Oh she was incredible and she'd be all they talked about for the rest of the night... The up and coming student doctor who's beauty was only outshone by her incredible intelligence and skill.



Grace had already navigated towards Jacob so the two were naturally getting lines drawn,people putting two and two... The heat would begin to drop off between her and JAcob within a few days she could tell, and in a week it would likely be ancient news, utterly forgotten... Someone had come in and asked her about her plus one, who he was to her and the like, she was about to answer and say he was an old boyfriend from the past but before she could say it? "I'm her lover." She had been about to take a sip of wine before she answered when he said that and instantly spat it back into the glass, albeit subtly while she pressed a napkin to her lips, looking up at him with a glance that clearly said 'wtf?'! Shock was written all over her face, her cheeks bright and flushed, shaking her head rapidly. Oh it was nuts then, the rumor had been she had been with Jacob, but now? Oh this was even better! A gorgeous rich blond stranger, the two looking like old gods of man, a beautiful couple if anyone could say it. Oh by GOD the room was a virtual paparazzi fest like ants all over a cake, and they were the cake, despite her multiple reiterations that it was NOT TRUE. She tried to get away but she couldn't each time she tried she was pinned by another reporter, another journalist, and it was then she put her foot down. "He is NOT my lover! Now there are plenty of brilliant minds here that you should all be interviewing rather than bothering me with personal details that are NONE Of your business!!" While she didn't snap there was definitely authority in her voice and she had definitely had enough. She stepped away from Nautilous, or rather she tried but he kept a commanding arm on her waist, keeping her near...



She managed to find Kit in a beautiful black silk evening gown that was form fitting but elegant, flirting away happily with the elf she had met earlier, a doctor in the line of pediatrics... She was loath to interrupt them so instead snagged a piece of paper and write a note to Jacob, handing it to a waiter to deliver it for her, that she had to leave but would be back shortly... There was an emergency with a woman in need of an abortion and she was the only one they trusted to handle it... That she loved him and would save a dance for him... She slipped it to the waiter with a kind smile and a nod, explaining who it was to be delivered to before she and Nautilous would turn to leave the party about a half hour in... Still plenty of time for her to go and help and then come back before it was half way over. Little did she know that Ric was party crashing and had seen the entire thing, and managed to intercept that waiter and take the note, replacing it with one of his own... A secret note asking her lover to meet her at the party where she would give Jacob the slip and they could be alone together... Somehow 'accidentally' given to Jacob instead of the intended party... It wouldn't be hard to play it up either, considering the shit Nautilous had said, the whole room would be gossiping about it...



She was shuttled back into the carriage before they were jumped into Arvandor through a portal not unlike the first she had gone through, feeling a touch sick and a little rotten in the stomach but she adjusted after a bit of fresh air, stepping out of the carriage in front of an incredible mansion, her jaw falling for a moment... "Jesus the lot of you must piss gold coins and shit silver bricks..."  She blushed hotly and apologized softly before she was lead into the room with Sydel where she was sleeping, covered in bruises and cuts, and instantly? She shifted from the guest of a party to the confident woman who had seen this before... The first thing she did was go to the side of the bed and began to uncover Sydel... "I need..." She started, giving him the list of plant extracts she needed to create the concoction they had invented at the manse, after all the woman on the bed was obviously an elf... They needed something a lot stronger than what worked for the girls, especially given her failure at terminating her own pregnancy before it started... Once the items were brought she'd blend them all there in that room, making sure they were properly heated, ordering Nautilous around like her own personal nurse... Plenty of towels and candles, lighting the area she would be working in, gathering the proper medical tools... Jacob had a spare set here which gave her exactly what she needed... "Mrs. Deathahze? I'm Rose... Nautilous says your in need of some help so I've come..." Said in a gentle voice, it was almost like a lullaby, and while she was there to help? She didn't touch Sydel... A rape was an ugly and violent thing, she'd almost been raped herself by Ric, and she knew she hadn't wanted anyone to touch her for a bit... "I understand you've been raped and want to terminate the pregnancy? If you're sure about this I'll help but I can't guarantee it won't be painless,especially after the act itself you might have multiple tears that will be aggravated by the process..." Funny that she looked like the vision of a beautiful golden elf while talking like a very skilled medical professional. "I have something here that will keep your system, that is your body, from rejecting the herbs needed to terminate the pregnancy... It will also keep you from moving or thrashing around while I work, so it will feel very weird, very uncomfortable but it's necessary... Do I have your permission to proceed?" If she said yes? She'd strip out of her dress behind a privacy screen and put on some old clothes in the closet that were handed to her, the dress hung up carefully so it wouldn't be damaged or made dirty... She began to wash her hands thoroughly while telling Nautilous what to do and how to administer the drug via IV.

[Deleted]

..he had left her there.. in his apartment..for in as much as he wanted to be able to travel with her, to arrive with her he knew it would cause far to much of a fuss.. and they didn't need it.. not right now.. the decision had been made between them to keep it private.. keep it secret.. at least for now.. there was a bit too much at stake.. he knew there would be a carriage going to pick her up a short time after he had left.. arriving at the venue shortly there after he was met with quite a bit of applause.. many pats on the back.. the general idea being that they were incredibly happy and supportive of his return..

the room was large.. tables were dotted here and there.. the smooth polished board on the centre would be where the dancing would take place later on in the evening.. a glass of wine in one hand only met with so much conversation.. going from one Senior Doctor to the next.. Barathon had made sure to invite everyone that had something to do with him in the past.. all the ones he had shied away from when he pulled back.. and now it was his job to return to the spotlight he was much deserving of.. he kept an eye out for her though.. every so often his gaze would scan the growing crowd ..

just trying to pick her out.. he was certain he'd catch that dress of hers at the very least but not yet.. he managed to mingle with Faelon and a few of the other doctors he knew.. there was a lot of feedback from the seminar which was fantastic.. a lot of questions asked about the trio.. being him, Faelon and Rose.. before one of the Seniors brought up that he had spoken with her only moments before.. that was how he found out she was there.. still no sign of her though..he was torn.. he wanted to go searching for her.. mingle his way through the crowd.. make sure she was ok.. she was so incredibly nervous earlier on afterall.. but he also knew that the pair of them had discussed not being around one another a lot tonight at least not in the beginning..


Faelon: You alright Jacob? I mean you're fidgeting ..something is obviously getting to you


J: -exhales.. laughing lightly as he shoved his hands down into his pockets-.. I'm fine Henry.. really Just need some air I think.. Come get me when everyone starts to settle in?.. its just a bit stuffy in here.. thats all


Faelon: Of course, yes.. there's a small garden area just outside the doors to the left there.. it has a seat or two.. mainly for smokers.. take a minute.. compose yourself.. ill come get you..


he nodded his head.. gracious for the support.. he knew Faelon knew he was lying though.. the two of them had been thick as thieves for so so long that they just knew..
he picked up that wine glass of his.. stepping out through the glass doors there at the side.. the cool air hitting him suddenly.. making him take a breath.. it felt incredibly good being outside.. it was just what he needed.. sliding his hand down into his pocket he retrieved that little silver box..

withdrawing a cigarette which he slid between his lips.. a spark would have the tip of it lit and a thin stream of lightly coloured smoke would float up into the night sky.. he spotted the seat then.. just an average wooden garden bench.. deciding to settle down upon it with a long drawn out sigh.. the music indoors was beautiful.. classical.. the chatter was loud.. but with the doors closed it sounded little more than the hum you'd hear from a bee hive.. his reclined.. letting his head rest against the chairs back.. his gaze.. that duo colouring went skyward.. watching the stars glisten and twinkle.. the corners of his lips curled a little.. and a smile would develop.. the glittering reminded him of her dress.. when she turned and stepped into the sunlight that streamed through the windows.. she just made him smile.. his free hand rose as he rubbed his eyes.. and raked his fingers back through his hair.. chuckling quietly to himself as he exhaled another stream of cigarette smoke.. -


Elizabeth: Mind if I join you?


J: -he blinked.. not having heard her approach.. though his mind had been elsewhere at the time..thinking to himself would it really matter if he did mind?.. he turned.. glancing toward her a moment.. noticing the outfit she had chosen..that incredibly tight full length gown that showed more than an eyefull of clevedge -.. I was going to head back in shortly anyway.. so you are more than welcome to do whatever you like


Elizabeth:.. -she sighed-.. Shame.. dont leave on my account, Its been a while since we've really had the chance to.. talk.. quite a while.. wouldn't you say? -she lit up her own cigarette then.. drawing back on it as the smoke floated up into the cool breeze.. the click of her heels sounded as she approached the chair he was reclined upon-


J: -his brows furrowed-.. Indeed.. -he had tried to avoid this.. for the Longest time.. and he had succeeded.. through a little research, checking dates and times.. making sure he was busy if it was during a celebration.. or simply with family if not.. to make sure he didn't see her.. to make sure he would never be left alone with her.. but it seemed to all come crashing down.. so easily.. he wasn't going to let it though.. mentally he was putting his foot down.. he drew back on the cigarette.. exhaling as he dropped it down beneath a boot.. moving to stand-


Elizabeth-.. mm no.. not yet.. -she planted her boot heel down between his thighs.. hooking it on the wooden bench seat he was reclining upon.. the dress fell onto either side of her soft white creamy thighs.. revealing those long shapely legs.. she leant in closer.. the toe of her boot pressed the apex of his thighs.. rubbing against the fabric of his slacks-.. I'm going to wager it's been a while..mm?.. -she turned her wrist then.. and a delicate silver chain fell from between her fingers.. attached at its end a bell.. -..maybe not for sex.. I mean.. you're young.. gorgeous.. rich.. I'll bet you have no issue fucking your way through half the city if you chose it.. but.. -she clucked her tongue.. pressing her boot a little harder-.. how long has it been since you bottomed..pet?..-the chain vibrated just enough to make the sweet bell chime-..


J: he went to stand.. to get up from the seat then only to find her boot pressed between his thighs and he blinked.. turning then to look up to her.. his gaze catching hers as she leant in closer.. he took an audible breath.. giving a light shake of his head.. -.. I'm not interested Elizabeth.. -he swallowed as she pressed down against his slacks.. his poor heart was taking a few tumbles there.. she must have been able to see the tension behind his eyes..the glittering of the bell snapped at his attention like teeth..he looked from it to her.. from it to her.. he ignored the questions about sex and how much or how little he had had of it.. he really didn't care.. though when she asked the last time he bottomed well that changed things a little.. it sent that swing.. well.. swinging in his mind.. the bell chiming just made it 100 times worse.. -.. please dont....-he pleaded with her.. it was almost inaudible.. whilst his words were saying no.. his body through years and years of conditioning.. said yes.. those slacks of his grew tighter.. his head dipped forward.. -


Elizabeth-.. that little bell.. the one she had used from the very beginning to get his attention in a public place had been her.. calling card if you will.. so many men brought to their knees by the sounds of such a sweet innocent little bell.. and she knew it would work.. even though it had been Years since they had spoken.. she felt his cock hardening against her boot.. spying how those slacks grew tighter.. oh she couldn't bite back the satisfied grin that was begging to form on those supple lips of hers-.. mmm.. no its ok baby.. its ok.. You dont have to run anymore.. You dont have to hide.. -she reached out to glide a nail across his cheek.. across that light stubble hat framed his face perfectly..-.. Oh look.. -she turned his head then.. manipulating it so he would be looking over his shoulder.. just in time to catch the glittering blue of her dress.. those blonde locks all pulled up tight.. getting into a carriage with an unannounced blonde gentleman.. the pairs backs to them so he couldn't catch whom it was.. though it was most definitely her.. his brows furrowed.. he was curious.. perhaps a little confused.. but he was certain there would be a reason for it.. afterall.. that was his Rose..


Faelon: -clearing his throat.. having caught the end of this display- Jacob!.. -he'd call out-.. you're needed inside bud, everyones about to settle in.. you know the usual.. speeches etc.. -he waved his hand around dismissive .. before glancing toward Elizabeth.. nodding his head-.. Evening Elizabeth..


J: he blinked when he heard Faelons voice.. it seemed to slice through the fog that had wandered into his mind.. dragging him back into reality as he nudged Elizabeth aside and he moved to stand.. straightening his jacket..thankfully it was dark enough that the sudden tightness in his slacks would go mostly unnoticed..his cheeks were coloured.. he looked awkwardly uncomfortable.. and thankful for the interruption.. before he said nothing as he looked at her.. and he moved to step inside with Faelon..the waiter stopped him on the way in though.. as everyone was settling in to sit..

he was passed the small folded piece of paper.. Faelon called out to him.. to come sit..everything was happening all at once.. and it was taking his mind a moment or two before it would even attempt to catch up.. he sunk down to sit there in his seat.. straightening his hair.. rubbing the back of his hand across his forehead.. he needed a drink.. something stronger than the wine that was available.. thankfully Henry came through.. dumping a small amount of whisky into the cup there.. sliding it across..he nodded -please dont leave me alone with her.. -his brows furrowed-


Faelon: -he nodded as he slid the flask back into his pocket-.. Im sorry Jacob, I had no idea it was that bad..

J: Did you happen to catch Rose earlier?.. I think she was here.. at least thats what I heard..


Faelon: Ah.. yes.. yes she was here.. with someone I didn't recognise.. I dont know.. the crowd around the pair of them was a bit thick I couldn't really get very close to find out..


J: -nodding his head offering a quiet thankyou.. some things were just not adding up.. but he wasn't going to jump to conclusions.. not just yet.. his eyes scanned the room.. he saw Kit there and an elvish gentleman.. Barathon too.. the seat for Rose was empty.. so perhaps it was her that left.. he rubbed his cheek.. the speeches had begun.. they spoke on the council and how it had come to pass.. the members it currently contained and what it meant to be a councilmen..

it was a certain amount of prestige that wasn't just given to anyone.. they had to have the right skill set.. the right drive.. they had to have the right desire.. and the helpful nature.. Honour was huge.. with one of the council members deaths due to age a seat had opened up.. and it was going to be offered to someone in that room on this night.. there was audible gasps and whispers then.. he however hadn't heard a lot of it.. his gaze was fixed on the note he had received.. it was clearly not meant for him.. it was meant to be given to someone else.. though it was clearly from her.. and he'd seen her just leave.. just now.. was that what she meant by giving him the flick?.. the blonde gentleman..was that her lover?.. oh his heart ached.. it hurt.. a lot in that moment.. like someone had just struck it with a hammer..

before he heard his nae being called out.. he had been chosen as the newest and youngest representative of the medical council...it was a step above Elizabeth. a step above Barathon even.. it was the highest honour a Doctor could receive.. Faelon was urging him to stand.. he blinked a few times before it would sink in what was going on and he moved to stand.. he was visibly shocked.. though anyone in that room would never blame him.. theyd think it was just because of what had just been bestowed upon him.. the room applauded.. Barathon moved to stand.. Faelon soon followed and so did the remainder of the room.. this would be when he would have really needed to see her face.. to see her eyes.. her smile.. but no.. she'd left..

Kit just about fell off her chair.. she was going to study beneath a member of the council.. that was incredible news.. he moved to the councils table there.. the longer rectangle at the head of the room.. he offered a bow to the applauding crowd and when the applause died down gave his thanks.. spoke on just how he was humbled.. and honoured to recieve such recognition.. he thanked each member of the council individually.. Thanked Barathon for all he had ever done for him.. and then of course Faelon..


Ricarnarvon: Where's my thanks ..pretty boy?..


The room quietened down then.. turning to see Ric standing off to the side there.. perhaps having a few too many drinks before now.. swaying on his feet


J: I think you need to sit down Dr Ricarnarvon.. a little food some air will do you good


Ricarnarvon: Im no Doctor, not anymore.. thanks to you and that meddling little whore of yours.. -he waved his hand around-


The council members moved to stand suddenly.. some of the larger security would be called forward to take him outside


Ricarnarvon: Yes.. thats right.. shut me up.. go on.. take me outside.. How is what ive done any different to what the golden boy has done..


Elizabeth: Thats ENOUGH.. take him outside immediately.. Dr Anikin has been nothing but professional and completely Honorable.. he's never had an unlawful or shown poor morals in his entire life.. The same can not be said for you Ricarnarvon.. Deal with it security.. I dont want to see his face in this building again.. Or the town.. send him home in a locked carriage.. -she snapped.. the room turned.. looking from her to Jacob.. putting two and two together.. before watching as Ric was being frog marched out of there his mouth taped up to keep him quiet as the music in the room returned..


he reached around to scratch against the back of his neck.. it was a moment.. maybe two before the room would be filled with chatter once more.. this kind of a group wouldn't allow such a horrible display to ruin their nights.. though he was more than shocked.. he was almost blind sided by it all.. thankfully he was kept busy.. shaking about a hundred hands.. so many had come up to congratulate him.. Barathon especially was So incredibly proud..

--


She remained asleep upon that bed.. the room was dimly lit though the candles that were around her flickered and shone.. showing the purple bruising.. the handprints upon her body.. her thighs.. her stomach and breasts.. the bite marks all over her shoulders.. like a vampire had gone into a frenzy and couldn't figure where he wanted to feed from.. her hair had taken on that soft violet hue.. it would take some time for your voice to get through to her.. but when you called her Mrs Deathhaze her brows would furrow and it would take some strength.. but she'd grip the neckline of that pretty dress you had on and she'd drag you down closer to her.. -.. Dont call me that..

-the strength died as quickly as it came though and she whined when her hand just flopped back down to the bedding beside her.. her eyes fluttered open.. yellow tinged.. showing the poison that had been taken that was doing little more than killing her and not the child.. no the child was fine.. perfectly fine even.. it would survive ..the host however wouldn't be so lucky.. but it would go through her and Belle before it killed them all.. something new though was within those usually completely vacant orbs was the beginnings of limbal rings.. those dark circles that would usually accompany the coloured iris.. now for those that knew her.. that wasn't right.. she had nothing there.. not a single dot of colour or shade.. but you wouldn't know that really.. unless you thought back to the images Jacob had shown you back in the little love cottage..

she exhaled softly.. blinking as she looked around the room.. trying to see.. trying to find Nautilous.. before catching sight of him rushing about like a little maid.. the corners of her lips curled.. she was amused..-.. does he have an apron too?.. -she turned her head to look to you.. her cheeks were all cut.. abrasions ran from the curve of her jawline to the point of her ear.. she was dragged on that concrete for quite a length of time.. though thanks to Nauts efforts.. all the dirt and dust was gone.. she listened to your words.. that you were there to help .. to get rid of the baby.. that it wouldn't be painless though.. she rubbed her dry lips together-.. nothing in this world is painless.. -she reached for Nauts hand.. if he obliged her fingers would curl weakly in his..-..yes.. just do what needs to be done.. I dont even know if this is going to work anyway.. -she would look up to Naut then as he was given directions on how to administer the drugs via the IV


On the other side of the city however.. in the library deep in the depths of the Paramours own enclave a certain lilac haired beauty collapsed.. taking with her quite a few books as the shelf toppled over.. word from younger paramours would get to Garafin.. they tried the mansion but no one answered.. perhaps because everyone was busy.. but Garafin would go running.. he knew..something had to be up for everyone to be unavailable.. All of them?.. Nautilous, Sydel, Diovan and Ace.. all gone.. he made sure to get Belle to the hospital.. they all knew she was pregnant.. and figured it was simply a drop in blood pressure. .. or perhaps she had just been working a little bit too hard.. a note would be send through to Naut though.. by way of magical express.. folden a few times over.. appearing in his breast pocket..


Nautilous,
Belle has taken a turn.. ive taken her to the hospital.. she seems to be ok.. but they cant get her to wake.. will keep you updated -G

[BadInfluence]

She wanted to be there for him more than anything else, honestly this night was big for him, for both of them... But when she should have been going there? She had been captured on exit by none other than his step father, Jacobs mother needing her assistant, a rape and resulting pregnancy had laid her low... No one else could be asked to help but her. Why? Well that was what she wanted to know, but no answers had been given, outside of the fact that they wouldn't ask Jacob... If she had known for a simple atom of a second of what was happening to Jacob? She would have told Nautilous to shove his request right up his surely lovely shaped ass and have protected him. It was sort of funny in a way, she had this knack of keeping him safe, standing up for him... But she couldn't wrap her head around letting him do the same for her.

Regardless though she wasn't aware of what was going on, she had no idea what Elizabeth was doing, or just how badly she had manipulated him when he was younger. Right now her attention was busy focusing on what she could do to help in the current situation... After all once she had arrived? It didn't take a scientist to discover that the patient at hand was far from normal. She caught it the second those icy hands had touched her skin, the way she moved, and then the yellow tinge to her white eyes... The anger and energy had come and gone so fast... "Make me snowcone." She said in retaliation, she could already tell that this patient was slipping into a way too restful state, like someone suffering from hypothermia.

"What the hell did you get up into?" She asked, taking a pocket flashlight from Jacobs store here at the house, looking at the sickly yellow aurora around the edges of her eyes... "Jacob showed me a picture of you so I know what your supposed to look like and this obviously isn't it.... Nautilous what did she take? To try and kill the fetus?" She'd ask as she had him running about to get this and that, working on the paste in front of her, diluting it with this and that... Making it viable for an IV drip... She heard the quip about an apron and she scoffed. "I don't think they come in the size needed for his a-typical ego..." At least if the books were right, because even as an up and coming whore, his ego and pride had been legendary, the stuff of fables! "Even the books warned about his pride... Though they didn't give any heads up on his abilities in the way of persuasion..." She said casually, keeping the tone light while she worked in rapid order both in person and in her own head... Adjusting things this way and that... After all she didn't know what she had taken but she did know that a general purge would work...

The same system she, Jacob and Faelon had come up with would work here, if anything it was the ideal sort of test run... One she wouldn't be able to observe first hand but there would be other times... She had the plants and other items ground together into a fine sort of powder that she distilled over multiple connected beakers and tubes, another thanks to Jacob for having all this stuff on hand, or to Nautilous for whisking them out of thin air... Either way it was what she needed as the finished product dripped out the end... It was taking far too long in her mind, it pissed her off that she was missing out on so much, but this... Well it mattered... She wanted to be a doctor and she couldn't call herself worthy of the title if she turned her nose up at someone in need...

She'd pour it all into an IV bag, making sure the air was out of the drip line, adjusting the flow... Waiting for it to get to the end before attaching it to the needle she had Nautilous put into her arm, and that was when it would start, and for Sydel?... It was a bit like being slowly burned alive, the stuff hit her veins like raw heat, and while it burned it also numbed... Made it so she couldn't move, couldn't twitch or jerk, like being put under anesthesiology but fully aware of everything around her... She'd begin to position her on the bed, pulling her to the end so that her heels were resting on the edge, her ass hanging off a bit... She scrubbed up and put on a pair of gloves before taking the sterilized tool that looked every bit like a very long tiny spoon with a slight hook at the end of it... It was a membrane scraper, it ensured no fetus could survive and she only ever used it in extreme situations, but this? Was not something she could risk a possible failure at so she was going full tilt... "Nautilous, lift her head a bit and feed her that tincture there on the side..." What was it? Penny royal, liquid concentrated vitamin c, monkshood, gossypium and blue cohosh... Mugwort and wild celery with cotton root bark and angelica... It was bitter as fuck, it would be hard to take but they were all intended to assist with the process... "Go slowly please, she can't control her body right now, so you need to drip feed her."

She began to work then, sliding the tool up through her cervix and into her womb, one hand pressed over her abdomen so she could feel her uterus as she worked... And began to hook and scrape away the lining there, this combined with the instant contracting results of the tincture she was taking there was a gush of blood on her hands, a good sign... The first gush she examined to make sure there were clots in it, that it was more than just a light bleed, there had to be lining... She resumed her work but for Sydel? It would feel like a white hot knife scraping away at her insides, and this was a side effect of being what she was versus a normal human who would have been knocked out by what she was given, for Sydel? No such blissful option was available. She was going to be awake for the entire thing and every second of pain after...

She was thorough, she worked slowly and carefully, using her hands and the pressure of her fingers and palm to make sure not a strip was missed... At the particularly painful part was when she knew she caught the spot, there was a bit more resistance there, and that was where the hook came in... Catching and severing it from the deeper lining, a slight knick in her uterine lining that forced the egg to separate and fall out in another gush of blood, thicker and far more clotted than the others... It was hard work, Sydel's body was fighting her, it almost seemed to move despite the fact she knew she couldn't so much as physically twitch... Add to the fact that the body did not want to bleed, that it didn't want to purge the items it made her job twice as hard, she truly had to work hard at this... Her brow beading with sweat as she devoted her entire attention on this moment... This act...

It took her a total of forty minutes for something that would normally only take her about ten to fifteen at most... By the end though? After several checks there wasn't any lining left, Sydel for all intents and purposes had miscarried and started the worst period of her life without a doubt, and she would be in a LOT Of pain... Even when the numbing began to wear off she'd not want to move, everything would ache for a while, and she might even wish she was dead... She threw the bloodied towels into the fire, along with the gloves she had worn and any soiled bedding. She'd direct Nautilous to pick her up and set her in a warm bath with that IV still going until the bag was empty, and Sydel would continue to cramp and contract as her body purged itself, but at least in the warm water? There was some comfort...

"There's nothing I can give you for pain, not the way your body works anyways... If it weren't for that Iv... You'd heal faster than I could strip the membranes... As it was your body was fighting me tooth and nail to try and keep the fetus..." She said with a shrug as she moved to the ewer and began to wash the blood off of her arms where they had gotten splattered over the gloves. " Jacob said you were unique... But your a medical oxymoron... Literally you shouldn't exist..." She said, drying off then and going behind that screen to get dressed once again, pulling those panties on once more. Like she'd do a surgery with THOSE on?! Hardly! She came around the side, dressed as lovely as she had been before, like nothing had happened... She was, after all, a professional for all she had no license... Yet... She would go to that stand and bring forward a thick paste that had been rolled into balls, like little pills along with some poppy milk in a glass. "Take these on every hour, they'll purge the poison from your system and if I'm right, I think it should jump start your system into healing... But you won't be at full strength, not for a couple days, the IV drip will keep you from healing too fast... You need to let things stay sort of raw for a couple of days in case there's any semen left in your fallopian tubes..."

If she healed too fast then they might just end up right back at square one.

She sat there for a second as she made sure the first pill was taken, returning her jewelry to her finger and wrist, earrings and necklace... "Would either of you like to inform me what a switch is? Jacob mentioned it earlier today but I can't really sort out what he means by it..." Like did he switch his sex drive on and off? Cause didn't that make everyone a switch? "Also... There is a certain Elizabeth Grace who has been sniffing around him a lot lately... Jacob said she's an old ah... Well regardless, he seems to be really uneasy around her, but he wont admit it... He says its ok, nothing to worry about, but he's gone white as a sheet every time she's mentioned... Plus she's tried to take me down twice now..." It was a genuine question and she figured if anyone might know? It would be his parents, right? After all they should know things about him? Things Jacob might not tell her?

She would hang around until she got the answers, hearing that Nautilous would not be able to escort her home, that Sybelle was in the hospital fainted and needed help. She sighed and nodded her head, got a hold of the eldest child in the house, a teenager named Aysil... Had her keep watch over her mother and just make sure she took the pills on the hour and didn't drown in the tub... She wasn't going to stick around any longer, she'd sacrificed a lot of time here already, a couple hours at least at this point... Jacob would probably be worried sick... She'd turn and leave that beautiful mansion, a glittering vision as she descended the large ivory staircase alone, seeming to float through the space... Catching the eyes of someone sticking his head out a window, another pair following, the two faces watching her looked way rougher for well and she just looked at them with a brow raised before disappearing out the door. That house... Full of crazies...

It took a bit longer to get home but once she was there on the surface again? She was deposited at the same place she had entered, the same elaborate carriage and all, and it was then she saw Ric being marched out... "Excuse me... What does this man stand accused of outside of being a general menace?" She'd ask as she approached, a clutch in her hand as her knuckles shown white at the hatred he looked at her with, listening to the responses... He had made a scene of himself at the gathering since loosing his position, and a Dr. Grace had ordered him out, to be sent home... "Is she the Queen of this city then, that you the police, have to listen to her every order? He disturbed an event yes, but taping his mouth shut and locking him up is illegal, as I'm sure you both know..." She said and that was when they were caught out, and no amount of money paid by Dr. Grace was worth them losing thier job, and the way she looked? Her dress, her hair, the aura she gave off... It was not someone to tangle with...

Ric's gag was removed and he was released, the two officers leaving in their wagon, and his look towards her? Shifted... Oh still plenty of hatred, but not the raw malace it was before, it was far more... Tempered... "Why did you go and do that? You could have left on a kinder note and gotten a job at a small village... You had a lot of potential but you threw it away... Just because of Jacob? Why?" She wanted to know why... And what she heard?... Would remain between them but when she went inside? She had a completely new and different view of Dr. Grace... Nautilous and Sydel had been VERY informative after all... Oh yes, she knew quite a bit, and in those moments? She knew she couldn't leave Jacob alone with her... Not ever...

She entered not long after that with gifts under her arm from Nautilous and a note from Sydel, things from his brothers and sisters too, and of course Garafin... All magicked into the carriage as she was leaving, a congratulations sort of mix, even a new set of treats from Vivian... She set them down on the table where he was sitting, everyone's attention on him and not on her, allowing her a chance to put her own gift for him there as well... She always did make the best use of her time, didn't she? She would then go and find Dr. Barathon to get caught up, and when she was asked where she went, she explained that she had been absconded by Jacobs father to help with a sudden emergency at home... Apparently they refused to see doctors outside of the family or people thier family knew... Since Jacob mentioned her so often as an up and coming doctor they pulled her to it... Figuring she would have been at the students party versus the doctors one so didn't think anyone would miss her, where as Jacob being gone, well that would have been VERY apparent.

When most of the congratulations were done she snuck into the group, a warm smile on her face, fighting as hard as she could to keep the love from showing there... Knowing that they had to keep it safe and secret for right now, but oh... How it shone in her eyes no matter how hard she tried to fight in, a light there, just for him... Her own gift wrapped up in a black velvet box with a blue and green ribbon around it. "I'm sorry I missed your promotion..." She said and she was, oh she was incredibly pissed with his family for dragging her away, but what choice did she have? Still, it was ok to feel a bit rankled, wasn't it? "Your father Nautilous stole me for some help with something back in Arvandor, I'm so sorry I didn't get a chance to tell you, I couldn't find you before he pretty much shoved me out the door... He's a bit um..." She said, not quite sure what to call him, outside of compelling anyways... "Well I'm sure you know what I mean..." She wouldn't elaborate on that unless he pushed. Instead she would hand him his gift and inside was a beautiful Bortoletti calligraphy set in silver, crystal and red oak, a one of a kind piece and incredibly beautiful... Masculine and powerful, a statement on any desk he sat it at, and sure to get many years of use. "Dr. Barathon filled me in... Are you excited? It's quite the honor..."

Gift from Aylan

[BadInfluence]

He caught the little comments about him and an apron, the return shot from Rose herself, a touch surprised... Apparently not only was she smart but she could roll with the punches too... There was something about this yet, wasn't there? At least she wasn't groveling before Sydel... She wasn't acting superior either, she was meeting her at a level pace, which boded pretty damn well altogether... “Jacob showed you a picture of her? That’s a first...” Jacob had been very private with family things before Cora, and after he was twice as much, so Rose was sort of a special exception... The joke about the apron though... “It’s not my ego it can’t cover, it’s my cock, though both are quite large.” Oh come on, it was him, of course he was going to be proper horrible... If he didn’t make some perverse overtures people would think he was dying or something.

Once Rose had everything she needed he went over to Sydel’s side and held her hand, setting up the IV with ease before settling in at Sydels side, watching Rose work... She was interesting to say the least, focused and a touch authoritative but not bossy, straight forward without beating around the bush... And she definitely knew about her plants, the things she was making were top end, she knew more about plants than he did... Somewhere on the level of Sybelle maybe? She was definitely over his head and that stood in her favor... The tincture he was given to feed Sydel was taken without question and as he supported her head in his hand, the other carefully dipped the bowl to her lips... Just a very slow trickle, enough to get it down, not s much to choke... The scent of blood hitting him like a brick in the face... Knowing that it had to be hurting, all the extra pain on top of what Dio had put her through, he could only imagine how bad this had to feel...

The process took a while, longer than he honestly thought it would need to take, but in the end? It had been done, the fetus in so far as he could sense was killed, he couldn’t catch a glimmer or hint of life inside her... But how long for the poison to be expelled? For her body to heal? Rose had an answer for that too, and he sat there for a moment sort of slack jawed, wondering where the hell she had been hidden under? A rock? Someone with so much raw, untapped talent, such a keen mind and ability to adapt... “Sydel love... I do think we aught to keep her.” He didn’t say they should get Jacob to marry her, hell no they’d never force Jacob into something like that, not ever... But they had their ways, didn’t they? She was too valuable an asset to have, especially with Jacob now being willing to go back out into the world, there was so much for their son to catch up on... But Rose? Seemed to be a much more viable and handy option for things that needed a rapid response...

After the work was done and Sydel was on the mend so to speak, Rose had then asked him a question, or rather asked them... He paused a moment and sort of looked at her for a minute, unsure if she was joking, or if she was genuinely unsure... “You were a virgin with Jacob, right?...” He had thought she was but given her lack of knowledge on a simple term, well that was just a confirmation, and he knew for a fact they had all laced that little love nest with enough potions to ensure if she had entered a virgin she sure as shit wasn’t leaving as one. He’d give Sydel a chance to answer but if she passed, and really, who could blame her? He’d answer himself. “A switch is someone who naturally possess both the ability to be a submissive and a dominant in bed... They’re rather rare, most people are easily one or the other, and they tend to make excellent lovers because they can... Adapt... To various needs... Do you think you are one?” He asked quite bluntly... A dom for Jacob was no good... But neither was a sub, he needed someone who was both, who could be strong when he needed to be weak and vice verse... He was but wasn’t surprised by her blush or her shrug... She said she wasn’t sure, and all things considered, she was too sexually inexperienced to give a proper answer... It didn’t matter at the moment, he had a feeling she was the right one for their son all the way around, and he’d let them get to that conclusion on their own.

It wasn’t till she mentioned Elizabeth that he actually got rankled and physically growled... Oh it had been too late by the time they were aware of what was going on... Jacob had been so careful to keep it quiet, just a lover despite the fact he was obviously way too young, that he was a consenting party... But when it had all come to wash years later? Oh they had been fit to kill the bitch, only her request to keep things quiet had stilled their hands, but oh... Oooh how they would have loved to make a strawberry pate out of her brain... “Is that what he’s calling it? An old flame...” He said, looking down to Sydel who was propped in his arms at the moment, holding her close and trying to offer as much comfort as he could to her in the moment. “What would YOU have called it, Princess?” He’d ask, knowing all too well what she thought about the entire thing and just what she had to say to a certain bitch with a fine pedigree... “She seduced him when he was just a kid before she decided she was going to break him. She had him lock and key for years, we never got to see him, hell no one did... It was pure abuse in the pursuit of her own ego...” Yeah... Now he understood the games between Doms and their chosen targets, but never once had he fully cut off a target from their family, he was a monster but he wasn’t THAT big of one... Elizabeth went way above and beyond the call of duty as it were... “If she’s gunning for you it means she sees you as a threat to what she wants from Jacob... That’s good. It means she’s taking you seriously and she knows you have power in you.” She wasn’t some subby female easily pushed aside by a stronger one, Rose obviously had a lot of spine in her, a lot of ability and strength... Elizabeth saw her as competition... It was good news all the way around... Well except one... “But that also means Jacobs at serious risk... She’ll start to strike at him like a snake in the grass, she’ll take every chance she can to get him, and she might just be able to do it...” He had no idea that Rose was pregnant and the two were splitting up to try and avoid rumors and drama that way...

Rose had had enough, she’d done what she came to do and wanted to go home, and by rights she’d done her job... So after a little more time spared for everyone to get gifts of congratulations in order she was allowed to leave, the carriage full of presents from family and friends, all for Jacob... Once she was gone though he knew he had to go and see to Sybelle, especially after what had happened with Diovan, there was no one else... He could easily see the next couple of days packed VERY full of things to be busy with....

[Deleted]

Ric had been frogmarched out of there.. his mouth taped closed.. and the officers had just about placed him into the wagon before they were interrupted by this vision in blue.. they huffed a little at being ordered around..-. Quite frankly Miss.. she has just as much jurisdictionas you yourself do. And neither of us care to be ordered around by Either of you. This was directly ordered from Professor Grace yes as a complaint and then the council medical board backed her up as he was disturbing the event, -they did not release him however.. they held onto his arms.. the mouth piece was removed though-.. He will be locked up for the evening as it is a city law for disturbing the peace.. If you dont mind you are right now stopping us from doing our jobs.. Thank you.. -the pair of them helped Ric into the carriage there.. the gated door closed as the officers settled into their seats.. Ric just stared at her through those bars-.. I may not be part of the inner circle anymore.. -he spoke quietly to her..-.. But dont think I cant ruin you.. and the pretty boy Doctor.. your time is coming.. think you can keep this shit a secret after what youve done to me.. turn about is fair play my dear.. turn about is fair play.. -the sides of the bar were smacked with a baton then.. making him sit back down before the carriage took off down the road..

when she entered the dinner hall not a great deal would have changed from earlier.. the music was still beautifully soft and classical.. the wine was flowing freely.. nibbles were being passed around on silver platters by smartly dressed waiters and waitresses.. she had clearly missed something quite big though.. he was busy.. his place having been moved from the seats with Faelon and Barathon to the main head table with the other council members.. he had a Lot of people to talk to.. a lot more hands to shake.. congratulations were being shared throughout the entire room..

it wasn't surprising really.. the majority felt he was the most deserving to step up into the roll afterall.. he had noticed her re-entering then.. though his attention returned to the paperwork that had been placed before him.. he had a few legal documents to sign.. this title would add yet another couple of letters to his already growing name.. Kit saw you though and she just about squealed.. rushing over.. nearly knocking a few waiters over in the process


K: ROSE! where have you been?!.. Ive been looking for you everywhere.. -she smiled that stunning beautiful big mouthed smile.. reaching to hug you-.. That dress is divine.. just beautiful.. I am stunned.. Did you hear.. that Jacob made Council?.. Ric tried to cause a scene but that was shut down pretty quickly.. I cant believe I am going to be learning under a council member.. this is So exciting! -she managed to catch a couple of glasses of champagne then from a wandering waiter.. passing one over to you-..


-there was a gentle tapping of a silver teaspoon to a crystal glass then.. someone needed the rooms attention.. everyone soon quietened down and settled into their seats.. he cleared his throat.. it was Jacob.. -

Thankyou.. really.. I am humbled by all of this.. it's an incredible honour -he placed a hand to his heart.. looking perhaps a little bashful about it all but so happy none the less-.. I graciously accept the offer to take a chair on the council.. I will of course do my best to uphold the values that such a title contains and make sure that those around me do the same. I will be heading back within a couple of days.. the new study season begins within the month.. I have a promising student at my side.. We appear to be a Doctor down now at the Mansion, however I am sure that spot will be taken soon..

-one of the other seniors stood then.. patting Jacobs back.. before rising his glass in a toast soon followed by a round of applause...the older gentleman waited until the noise settled before he would speak.. he was clearly one of the council..standing just to Jacobs left..-.. We do have a Doctor ready to take that empty space.. It will be the first time a female will enter those walls with students ..it should mix things up a little.. We all know her quite well.. she has recently stepped down from the Medical Sciences wing of the University of Arvandor to accept this position and for that we will be forever greatful. Please welcome Professor Elizabeth Grace to the fold of the Teaching Doctors at the Mansion..

-he applauded and the room soon did the same.. there was a lot of chatter about it.. lots of gasps.. lots of smiles.. many were eager to be taught beneath her as she had a literal wealth of knowledge.. and having Both Dr Anikin and Dr Grace and Dr Faelon all under the one room.. a perfect trifecta of supreme education.. he looked as though he had the wind knocked out of him though.. when he heard her name being called out.. blinking a few times before he would pull himself together..lifting his glass to her much like everyone else did.. before the room would circle back to its rotation the same as it had just before.. he took a drink from that glass there.. downing the entire bubble filled drink in one go..

he needed something a lot stronger than that.. it would be then that she would appear there at the table..his brows furrowed when he heard her apology.. his brain unable to put two and two together in that moment.. she left with this supposed lover.. and now she was apologising.. he went to interrupt before she spoke about Nautilous and his brow rose.. arching there upon his face.. he placed his glass down.. he looked confused.. -.. come.. -he nodded.. motioning to the side doors there.. everyone around them was occupied.. or busy.. they would surely have a moment to talk.. he stepped out into the awaiting darkness.. he would wait for her to follow-.. Nautilous was with you?.. that was him in the red?.. -he blinked.. he looked a little blind sighted..

reaching around to scratch against the back of his neck..-.. You'l have to forgive me Rose.. I'm a little confused.. I really arent sure.. uhh.. -he seemed to stutter a little.. before he simply reached into his pocket and he pulled out that folded piece of paper.. it looked identical to the one she had written him.. but it was not her note inside.. -.. I was given this.. right before I went back inside this evening.. a few hours ago.. -he tilted his head-.. I saw you leaving with.. who I now understand it to be Nautilous.. and like.. -he exhaled.. sliding his hands down into his pockets-.. I understand what he is.. and how he is.. and how charming he can be.. in all facets of life.. he's practically perfection.. but he's not your.. -he would motion between them both with a hand gesture-.. like.. no the same as you.. and I.. right?.. -he was basically asking for confirmation that her and Naut werent lovers.. he was just finding the most incredibly awkward way to ask it..

so it was coming out all wrong.. she asked if he was excited about the council and he nodded.. a smile crept its way across his face-.. I am honoured.. above all else that they chose me.. I feel there are other doctors who are much more deserving.. I'm the youngest they have chosen.. so.. yes.. I am.. quite excited by the prospects it could and will bring.. a challenge above all...-he rubbed his lips together-.. Im not so excited about Elizabeth.. -he nodded.. his arms rising to cross there about his chest.. glancing back to the glass doors every so often to make sure people were looking out.. or that someone wasn't coming out to meet them-.. Like I hold no fear on it.. I am sure it will be fine. it just make things uncomfortable.. thats all.. I saw the gifts you dropped off.. are they from the family?.. -he questioned.. before he paused-.. What did Nautilous want you to go back for?..

-it only just now struck him as odd that Naut would have come all this way to get some help for something back in Arvandor.. -.. is everyone ok?.. -he was growing perhaps a touch worried..that maybe one of his family had fallen ill-.. its not Belle is it?.. I know she's pregnant..-there would be a tapping at the door there.. it was Faelon ..he drew it open a crack-.. I was wondering where you two had gotten too.. The Musicians are organised.. its time for a little dancing.. Ms Rose.. -he bowed it was very dramatic-.. May I? -he knew the two of them would want to dance at some point.. but perhaps the first dance.. or at least in part would not be a good idea..

Jacob glanced toward her with a smile.. before he took a step back and ushered her on with a wave of his hand-.. Go.. -he whispered as she moved past-.. just remember the deal.. -oh he wasn't about to forget about those pearls.. he followed the pair in.. drawing those doors closed behind him as the singer stepped up to the stage and the soft sway of beautiful music started.. the floor there in the centre soon filled with couples.. he felt a gloved hand to his shoulder.. before he heard Elizabeths voice.. low and whispered directly into his ear.. -.. seems we have an act to keep up.. we best not let the fans down.. -she laughed softly.. before she would guide him onto the floor.. she'd offer a curtsey.. he a bow..

before the two of them would fall into well practised steps.. they moved incredibly well together.. there was no fault.. however there was also no real feeling to it.. at least so far as he was concerned.. they had clearly danced before.. most probably numerous times.. so to any that didn't know him or her that well they looked like a dream couple.. but Rose would know he was a little sharper.. than he would be.. say with her..

Elizabeth:.. I see you havent forgotten your steps Jacob


J: Of course not, You practically forced me to learn this till my ankles bled remember?.. -he would elongate his arm then.. allowing he to spin before he would draw her back in-


Elizabeth: You always did have a flair for the dramatic.. I dont recall you complaining..


J: Never.. I always did what had to be done to get to where I needed to be Elizabeth


Elizabeth: and look where its got you.. working right along side me.. This is going to be a very.. very interesting season.. -she would reach her hand up to hook it onto his shoulder.. though there concealed about her wrist was that little bell.. and just for him it would chime.. faintly.. but with it being so close to his ear he would have caught it.. his lids would have half closed in that instant.. the stiffness in him vanished.. he became.. more pliable.. softer.. he dipped her then.. watching as her body arched perfectly before righting her once more.. it would be then that Faelon would leave Rose however.. tapping a finger upon Elizabeths shoulder to cut in..


F: I do hope you dont mind Jacob, I do believe it is time for Elizabeth and I to become reaquainted.. afterall we are going to be sharing residence very soon

J:.. -stepping back a little bewildered-.. not at all.. be my guest..-spoken softly-


he would stand there amongst the couples a moment.. as if he were lost.. before you would step in.. to pick up where he had left off.. though he would almost flinch when you touched him.. a mild tremble might have even been felt before he realised who it was and he'd offer her a smile.. bowing his head-.. You know.. for someone who said they didn't know how to dance.. you surely picked it up very quickly.. -his right hand slid around her.. his left taking her hand as the two of them danced with so much more feeling.. so much more colour and show.. sure it was a little broken.. and sure there might have been a few steps missed and feet stepped on.. but.. they had so much more fun-


Music

[BadInfluence]

That went far less smooth than she had hoped for... Though they were right, rules here weren’t the same back home, they were a lot stricter here were as back in the village there was more... Flex... “Apologies officers... I haven’t adjusted to the stricter laws here.” She stepped away and had thought that Ric would say... Well... Something? But what he said just made her sigh and shake her head. What he had done? “You made your own shovel and dug your own hole Ric... You successfully killed me for ten minutes, isn’t that enough for you? Or does Elizabeth expect more from you?” A stab in the dark but her gut was telling her something, telling her to stretch out and find that bell, to tap the sides, ring it... Because she was pretty sure she knew Jacob wasn’t her first victim... And likely wasn’t her last...

Stepping into the venue she was glad she hadn’t missed a whole lot, but she knew she had missed something big, and if she said she didn’t hurt because of it? She’d be lying. What had she done to deserve that? Her sin? Being skilled. Being skilled and being within reaching distance... She was catching up on it, or trying to rather, but anyone she might have asked on a personal basis were all up that that table around Jacob. Her mind was logged down with so many things when Kit saw her and rushed over, startling her a bit from her thoughts before she reached out and returned that hug, shaking her head at the question. “I’m sorry kitty kat, I was absconded by Jacob’s dad for help with something back at his home.” She was filled in then on the promotion though the Ric thing? Now that she knew first hand... “Ric was outside when I was coming in. You need to be careful kitty kat, he’s not done messing with people from what I gathered, so I need you to keep an extra close eye on Jacob for me...” Not that Jacob was useless or helpless but... Well... Jacob tended to wait a little too long, hoping for a situation to either diffuse on it’s own or ripen into one that worked in his favor, and life? Well life rarely, if ever, decides that it’s going to throw anyone a golden egg in place of a lemon.

“I am so proud of you Kat, really I am, you’re going to have so many opportunities now... There’s no end to where you can go and how far you can travel... Who knows, you might even end up in Arvandor with that lovely pediatrician you’re sweet on.” Kit was a little butterfly honestly, between the soldiers at the barracks, a police officer, and of course now the elf? She had a little male harem of her own, and all of them vied for her attention and her favors, but she? Was pretty sure Kit had found the one she wanted to make eyes at for a good long time... She took the offered wine glass but didn’t drink any, she wasn’t too sure about her stomach right now, especially after what she just went through... Things just felt sort of... Funny... A prickle behind her eyes... She was about to say something when Jacob began the speach and she listened attentively, a soft smile playing about her lips, though she did her best to keep it friendly... Too many eyes here... Too much of a risk for someone to see something that shouldn’t be showing on her face, especially after the stupidity that Nautilous had dropped, although... It had helped to ensure that she and Jacob weren’t seen as an item. A sort of mixed blessing...

What came next though and she found she had easily snapped the champagne glass stem between her fingers and cut into the soft pad of her thumb, a short gasp as she dropped the glass on the carpet, putting her thumb in her mouth as the blood began to pool there. That... That was not good... Not good... Not good. She had a bad feeling about the woman from the start, and Jacob had downplayed it neatly, but now? Oh now she knew the truth, knew how vile and twisted she was, and the danger she posed now to Jacob... She felt sick all over again, that prickle picking up once more, more like an annoying stabbing sensation now... But at least her thumb was healing up rapidly, keeping a tissue over it as she laid the gifts down on the table for him, apologizing... The look of confusion on his face made no sense to her at all, and when she was called into the private alcove for them to talk, the paper produced...

Her fingers balled into fists, the note in her hand crinkling, blood falling onto it as she reopened the cut on her thumb. “No one but a member of your family in need could have gotten me to leave.” She said, trying to control the surge of red she was seeing, the anger that kept trying to slide under her skin... Funny... No... No it wasn’t... This wasn’t funny at all... “I found him to be a bit bossy and incredibly confident in himself, and I have admired his career and how hard he pushed himself and what he’s done from such humble beginnings, he’s sort of like the goal for every orphan child.” Which was true, he was found on the streets of Cairo, trained in the art of sex and pleasure in the biggest whore house in pretty much history... Earning what had been claimed as the impossible eight, venturing out on his own, being tied to tons of royalty of all walks of life... He was impressive... “But no, he is not my lover, and never will be.” She was about as interested in Nautilous as she was in fucking the major who’s nose she had broken. She knew he had no idea just what he had said or done to her, the insult he had pretty much slapped her with, and how badly she wanted to hurt him back for it...

She shifted the topic to congratulations in regards to his promotion, his words on Elizabeth, his thoughts on it.... “When were you going to tell me Grace was your Mistress and kept you captive as a teenager and sexually abused you?” She said, blunt as a hammer to the face, and while she kept her voice level and even, her face neutral as if they were carrying on a regular conversation, it was in her eyes where the pain shown. “While I was there helping your father I got to ask some questions of my own and he was very helpful.” He asked about the gifts and she shrugged a bare shoulder gently. “Family and friends, congratulations from your brothers and sister, as well as Garafin and Vivian from what the labels said...” When he was asked about what Nautilous wanted her to go back for? If everyone was ok? “Belle is just fine, she’s resting. It was for your mother Sydel. She had an issue unique to women she needed help with. Apparently it’s known about my particular skill set before I started school and they thought I was the best choice since I was readily available.” Yeah... Readily Available her ass... She’d pretty much been forced along but what could she do? Leave the woman in such poor health? Tell them no, go find someone else? Sure... Cause THAT looks great when you’re trying to get the family to like you so they won’t see you as another Cora in their son’s life...

When Faelon came out she was thankful honestly... Not one apology... Or even a flicker of recognition of what he had done to hurt her... No he was more worried about if she was off fucking someone... Hadn’t their little tryst at his apartment been enough to show him? The shower? What about the hospital? Their weekend in Arvandor? He was her first everything... She loved him, adored him, she almost worshiped him... She’d put herself in danger, she’d been killed protecting him, and all it took? Was a slip of paper to make him doubt... She’d been honest... All the way, in and out, all the way around... He had been the one hiding things from her... If anyone should doubt? It was her. “Just giving him a gift for his promotion and clarifying something, you know how I am, Dr. Faelon. Always organized.” She said as she took the offered hand, disappearing without a backwards glance though she heard his words, but just because she didn’t look back? Didn’t mean she was unaware of Grace walking in the opposite direction, right out to that little area where she had come from, that prickle... It was just going to get worse it seemed...

Faelon was a lovely dancer and she lent herself very well to the steps, her innate natural grace made her look as if she had been dancing since she was a child, every move she made was utterly bewitching... The glitter of the diamonds and sapphires, the flashes of brilliance from her skirts, the subtle warm glow from her skin... Even the candlelight seemed in love with her hair as it chose to tarry and warm those golden locks till they appeared made from sunlight. Faelon made it very easy to follow his lead, a natural dancer he knew how to guide her without a word, thus making them a very enjoyable couple to watch... But her eyes were always on Jacob in some form or another, watching him, guarding him even from afar... “Faelon... Can you promise me you will look out for Jacob while I’m gone?” She didn’t need to say from whom or for what, Faelon would know, but would he step in? It was, after all, none of his business... He had no real reason to stand between the cougar and her chosen cub... When Faelon broke up Jacob and Elizabeth’s dance, it was just in time because she?... She took her place before Jacob, noticing the tremble, the way he flinched. “You can walk away from it...” She said gently as she took his offered hand, stepping into his arms as they began to dance together, but unlike with Faelon her steps were far from smooth... She missed a couple and if he looked closely, he’d see why...

She was crying...

Silent tears surely, but they were there, brushed away surreptitiously before they were easily noticed... “We’re doing this for your reputation, to keep things smooth and safe, to try and give us a chance to be us... To keep me from losing a chance at a future as a doctor...” She said softly as he swayed her through the steps, her skirt swinging out as she spun out, a curtain of stars on a twilight sky... “But is it all worth it if she can so easily make you doubt me? Is my reputation even worth saving if the reason we’re doing it isn’t around?” It was one thing to handle Grace at a distance, the occasional visit that needed to be planned for, guarded against... But now? In daily contact? Years of conditioning she had been told... A virtual Stockholms situation... And he was going to play it down? And she would be hours away from him, unable to protect him or run interference... All because she was leaving the manse to keep things from getting worse...Wasn’t that the goal? To try and avoid a mess? But it seemed that while trying to keep things from getting bad, they opened the floodgates and invited a tsunami of trouble instead, and she? Had no idea how to handle it.

Rather than let this spoil his night though she placed her finger against his lips from anything he might have said... “ Later... At the cathedral...” She said softly before she summoned strength from she couldn’t have said where and pushed it out of her mind, letting the music take her over, to move them... “This music... Quite similar to what was playing in the shower... Remember?” She asked, leaning in against him just a bit, her words meant only for him... Drifting up to play with his senses... The air around her shifted a bit... Began to crackle and pop... She smelled good... So damned good... This unique sent wafting off of her exposed skin, between her breasts and along her shoulders, the long delicate curve of her neck... It was incredible... Hard to miss... Harder to ignore... “You felt incredible... Sliding up into me... I couldn’t breathe I was so full... Stretched so tight... The way your chest felt against my nipples...” Her voice dropped into the most sultry little dulcet tone... Hanali would have been buffing her nails in pride... “The way you made me cum harder than I ever felt before...” It was almost a pant... A moan... A sensual mewl of her voice just for him... The men around her, those in their area would begin to notice, not her words but the scent of her skin...

Jacob would find himself the receiver of some very sharp looks... Jealousy and Envy... Some of the men getting just a bit too close, bumping him a touch, her brows rising at the change... She? Had no idea what she was going, or if something was even happening, completely and utterly oblivious to the effect she was having... Any man with a healthy enough heart was getting aroused, and those coupled up would dance a bit closer with their partners or leave the floor altogether, and others? Well it was those others who would subtly, and politely of course, be jockeying Jacob around the floor...

The music shifted to something a bit more energetic, the foxtrot which she didn’t know the steps to, and as soon as it shifted she saw Grace trying to make a beeline for them... Something snapped then, a sultry smile slid across her lips, her eyes flashed a bright shade of gold for a moment... She was looking right at Grace over Jacobs shoulder... “These pearls are incredibly tight Jacob... Let’s sneak off and find a place to... Adjust them...” She didn’t give him much choice though, she stroked over a very apparent part of his anatomy that was hidden by her skirts, brushing up against him... “I’m sure there’s something wrong... They’re quite damp...” She’d give him a seductive squeeze before taking his hand in hers and leading him back, walking right by Grace, looking her up and down with a smile that would send a shiver of pure ice up her spine. “Dr. Grace... You know we were JUST talking about you... I was talking to Nautilous Deathhaze and his Wife Sydel a little while ago... Said to pass along a message to you...” Leaning forward then so that she could whisper it against Elizabeth’s ear, out of Jacobs hearing even with those lovely elvish points on full tilt... “Sydel says your dead...” After all Grace wasn’t in Arvandor... That no kill rule? Was out the fucking window now. “Well, ta-ta now, Dr. Anikin and I need to discuss a few things. I’m sure someone of your ‘long standing’ has so many people to catch up with now that you’ll be mingling down here with us... Commons...”

If Jacob resisted he’d find himself guided by more force than he’d expect from someone as small as she was, compelled by sheer will through the crowd, giving explanations that Dr. Anikin was just taking her somewhere quiet... She was feeling a bit off and due to her last brush with death they were being cautious... She was quite fine, just a little peckish, needed some quiet... Dr. Anikin was going to be taking excellent care of her of course... No one batted an eye, it went smoother than buttered up ice on a hot skillet, and they easily slipped out... Down a hall... Another... Doubling back so to make sure they weren’t being followed... Into an empty room with several conference tables... She locked the door and placed a chair under the handle, ensuring there was no chance anyone could come in and accidentally stumble upon a particular scene, nor hear anything over the music from the celebration... “Nautilous explained what a switch was to me...” She said as she reached up to grab him by his tie, yanking him down to her level, lifting her skirt to catch a chair by her heeled slipper... Sending it sliding out... “Sit.” She said, the ring of natural command in her voice, and with those delicious smells coming off of her... Oh the compulsion to obey... Lush... Lux... Delightful...

If he didn’t sit on the first order, she’d twist his tie around her hand and slide that knot up a little more, flicking her tongue up along the lobe of his ear. “Excuse me? I believe I gave you an order...” She’d say and if he still didn’t listen? She’d press her hands to his chest, a sweep of her foot against the back of his knees and he’d go tumbling into that chair, her lips curling in a sultry smile. A bit of a magical prickle, a tickle, and the arms of that chair would form around his wrists a set of cuffs... Taking her own sweet time to saunter over to him... Slowly lifting her full skirts up over her legs, revealing a set of shocking blue silk garters with diamonds over them, pale as buttermilk stockings up over her long stems... “You know Jacob... If you need a Mistress... You could have just asked?...” She crooned as she stradled his legs, one foot lifted just a touch, pressing down on the seats lever... Dropping it down so his head was around the level of her luscious scented cunt. “I told you I was reading a lot in that book... If you need this... I’ll be yours... I’m sure I can make it quite... Delicious for you...” She said, sliding that same heeled foot up along his leg... his arm... To catch the pointed toe under his jaw... “You can say Yes, Mistress Rose...” Oh the pitch of her voice, and with her skirts up, the sheer overwhelmingly lush scent of her precious little cunt dripping off of her? She was lethal... Eyes that had once been a warm brown green hazel mix were a very pale gold, her lips curled in a sultry smile, and if he looked very closely... Or rather... Breathed deeply... He’d catch the scent she gave off was pure pheromones, sexually charged and addictive, the sort to make men slaves... “Are you hungry, Jacob? You must have worked up quite an appetite...” She sat her ass up on the counter of the table there, spreading her thighs before him, setting her heels on either side of his head... Crooking her finger at him to lean forward... To taste her... Her core still beautifully jeweled with those pearls and something a more... A richly detailed tattoo right over her bare cunt... “Eat my pussy Jacob...” While she oozed confidence and pure senxuality, inside she was a nervous wreck, wondering if she was even doing this right... Nautilous had said as a switch Jacob was both Master and Submissive... And Grace had been his old Mistress so if she filled that roll... Could she provide him another layer of armor against her?

..what a night it had turned out to be.. certainly not one he would have ever guessed to go this way.. Ever.. he lead her out the side glass doors there.. waiting until they had closed before he would pass her the note he had been given.. he watched her.. drank in the emotions that crossed her features.. and thats when he felt like an absolute heel.. he had his reasons for not having a lot of trust in people true.. he'd been burned in the past.. well more akin to being charred in the past.. but still.. she gave him No reason to think down the path he had.. he exhaled softly.. -.. Im sorry Rose.. I.. -he hesitated.. his hands rose as he raked his fingers back through his hair-.. I had no right to think that way.. I apologise.. -he bowed his head.. fucking hell he felt like an asshole then.. utterly and completely.. he looked shattered.. watching her get angry and upset.

. before she slapped him with the questions about Grace and his eyes widened considerably.. he suddenly felt a swift cold flash cover him.. his heart beat picked up and he forced the lump down that decided to form there in the back of his throat.. he paused a moment.. just looking to her-.. I didn't tell you.. because like I said.. when we spoke in that room.. you knowing wouldn't change anything.. it would only hurt you.. and there was nothing either of us could do about it.. -he was being honest with her.. just like he was then.. he hadn't kept it from her on purpose.. all she had to do was ask him.. and he told her as much then.. and when she didn't he decided to just leave it.. -.. She was yes.. she took the role of my Mistress.. I was quite young.. Ill admit to not understanding a lot of it .. but.. -his brows furrowed.. this was awkward and he felt incredibly uncomfortable.. like when a partner asked questions about an ex.. he blinked a few times-.. I.. uh.. she..

-he stuttered.. looking to her..-.. I chose to stay with her.. I remember..the intensely strong feeling and desire to want to be around her.. at all times.. and I dont know.. maybe it was a teenagers infatuation.. perhaps borderline obsession.. I -he sighed.. this was embarrassing-.. I dont know.. -and he wouldn't know really.. to him she really didn't do anything wrong.. the bell controlled his actions.. so to his family he was held captive.. but to him he wanted to be there-.. I guess.. in hindsight when I look back I isolated myself.. from everyone.. I hid away.. I dont know.. it was so very long ago.. -he was getting flustered-.. I left.. I got away and.. I hadn't seen her since.. I think thats why its hit me a little harder seeing her now.. it's just been that long.. like.. Im no teenager anymore.. Thats how long Ive been away..

-he rubbed the back of his neck.. -.. Im Sorry Rose.. please know this.. I feel like an absolute heel for doing this to you.. -she had explained where she had been and n a round about way the reason why.. it was his Mother that required aid.. and if he were thinking straight he probably would have asked more questions.. but his mind was trashed.. he was concerned.. he was worried about her.. before Faelon stepped in and everything just stopped.. he watched her walk back into the venue then.. it was amazing how things could change so quickly.. he felt empty.. utterly and completely so.. Elizabeth would take him up then.. and the pair would dance along with all the other couples in that room.. at first he had glanced across to her.. watching as she danced with Faelon.. though when that bell was rung.. his attention shifted.. squarely to Grace..


F: -he had heard your question.. would he look after Jacob while she wasn't in the house.. he offered her a smile.. a nod of his head.. leaning in to whisper just so she could hear-.. Of course .. I dont think you have anything to worry about, but Ill always be around.. Ill make sure to keep them all in line.. I have a feeling though.. after the issues with Ricarnarvon.. the house is going to end up with a Matron.. so there will be no more nonsense.. -he shot her a wink there as the pair danced a little more.. before he would release her and take Elizabeth up instead..his heart.. his Rose took that womans place..

though for a moment there he did take a bit of a tremble and a flinch was felt before he realised just who it was.. he took a breath.. his rigid square shoulders softened ..he took her offered hand.. his fingers soft and warm curled around hers.. the two of them danced to the soft gentle beat.. the music was beautiful yes.. but.. he cared not for any of it.. he just watched her.. standing there before him.. dancing with him.. he noticed the missed steps.. the little stumbles here and there.. he reached across to tilt her chin up.. to lift her gaze to his.. noticing the glassy appearance.. an those few tears tumbling down.. his expression changed.. -.. Im sorry love.. -he spoke softly.. almost inaudibly.. and in that minute he couldn't have given a rats who saw it.. sure he didn't scream it from the roof tops.. he didn't actively draw attention to them .. but he did say it to her.. looking to her..

gazing down into those pain filled eyes of hers.. the steps.. the spinning all slowed.. and he did little more than sway with her as he brushed those tears away with his fingers.. just lightly catching one after the other.. he just wanted to take her away from here.. he just wanted to envelop her and explain everything.. and tell her that it was going to be ok.. he'd hurt her.. and it was killing him..he looked to her when she asked her questions about.. was it all worth it in the end .. if he could so easily be swayed by another.. he shook his head-.. I honestly dont think it was her.. but.. thats besides the point.. I

-his breath caught against the back of his throat.. the two of them still moving so smoothly together-.. I had no right to think of you that way.. or to doubt you.. and I will apologise for that until the day I die.. I got so caught up in everything that was going on.. and I guess.. a small part of me.. is used to being burned.. and I guess.. -he took another breath-.. I guess Im almost expecting things to go wrong... because its all going so beautifully.. like.. Im just waiting for the penny to drop.. -he swallowed-.. Im sorry.. I had no right.. -he blinked when she placed her finger against his lips.. hushing him.. he fell silent.. just watching her as they swayed slowly.. she mentioned the music sounding like what they had 'danced' to when they had their session in that shower and his cheeks coloured a little.. -.. I remember.. I dont think Ill ever.. Ever forget..

-he glanced up into those eyes of hers.. watching before she leant in closer.. his arms slid up a little more around her.. his fingers lightly brushing against her skin..it was a huge gamble the way they were dancing.. the only real factors on their side were the low lighting and the fact everyone else was busy in their own worlds.. his ears twitched a little when the air seemed to shift and change around him.. the faint crackle.. and pop.. magic?.. he glanced around a little.. he couldn't see anyone around him that would be causing it.. he was used to it being from Arvandor.. this kind of thing happened often.. but here?..

when she leant in closer and her bodies scent hit him his lids grew heavy.. half closing there as he exhaled.. oh wow.. she smelt incredible.. it was making his body prickle.. his mind a little more foggy than it should have been..she kept going though.. teasing him..taunting him.. tormenting him with those sultry words.. he swallowed..-.. Rose.. -he whined softly.. the grip he had around her tightened considerably.. if she kept going.. if she kept pushing him like that he'd probably have to excuse himself..he began to worry the corner of his lip there.. he would catch the looks quite a few of the men in the room were giving him.. they were sharp.. quite aggressive.. feeling the bumps.. the knocks every now and then as the pair of them were nudged.. what was going on?.. concern crossed those lust laced features.. he looked down to her.. their eyes meeting..

she looked just as confused as he was.. it was then that the music changed.. a lot more energetic.. fast paced.. the foxtrot.. oh he knew the steps.. it was easy and quite fun.. he wasn't sure if she knew though.. he didn't catch the exchange between her and Grace though.. the two of them simply swaying.. before she whispered those very.. very naughty words in his ear.. all about those pearls.. he blinked.. taking another sudden breath.. when she stroked against the front of his slacks though it would be unmistakable just what effect she had had on him.. the clear and present hardness concealed only by a few layers of fine fabric.. he forced out a breath through gritted down teeth-.. Oh god yes.. -he whispered in response.. she didn't have to ask him twice.. she knew she had him wrapped around her little finger.. and she did.. easily..

he felt her fingers in his hand as she began to lead him off the dance floor.. they would approach Elizabeth then.. who was standing off to the side nursing some kind of cocktail.. he observed the chatter between them both.. nodding his head to Grace then..


Elizabeth: -taking down the remainder of her drink as she heard the quip about Jacobs parents.. her eyes rolled visibly-.. Oh im sure you do.. run along Just Rose.. -she waved her hand.. before you would lean in to whisper the little threat then and she'd pause.. rubbing her lips together.. their eyes would meet.. her own silver gaze to yours.. narrowing for a fleeting moment.. she watched you take off then.. dragging Jacob behind you


A few people had gone to approach them both as they moved down and off the dance floor.. weaving in and around a few tables.. her excuse worked perfectly.. no one seemed to question it.. maybe it was her tone.. or the way her voice sounded.. or maybe it was this effect she was having on almost everyone.. but none the less no one batted an eyelid and the pair of them were off and down out of the dinner hall.. she took him into a room.. a conference open space with tables and chairs.. he glanced around a little.. his hand rose to rub at the side of his neck-.. is everything ok Rose?.. -he'd question.. turning to catch sight of her locking the door with a chair so no one could so easily get inside..

his brows furrowed.. she explained that his Father had given her a little crash course on what a switch was and his mouth dropped open a little..-.. Oh really?.. he did now did he?.. -he cleared his throat.. reaching to scratch at the small stubble that was growing upon his cheek.. his chin.. he wasn't sure where this was going.. -.. and just what did he tell you?.. -some people couldn't handle the idea of a switch.. some people hated it.. some people just didn't think it was possible.. he was curious as to just where she sat on that.. before she suddenly yanked his tie.. pulling him down to her level.. he blinked.. she barked an order at him and he was a little stunned.. so he didn't actually move.. she slid that tie up though.. tighter.. a little tighter.. her tongue against his ear.. oh his knees just about gave out and he sunk down onto that chair as instructed.. -.. Yes Ma'am.. -he'd utter softly..watching as the chair suddenly latched him down.. the cuffs wrapping around his wrists.. he'd struggle against them.. testing them out before he would resign himself to the fact he wasn't going anywhere without taking a chair with him..

he watched her then.. how she sauntered across to him.. his throat felt incredibly dry.. she lifted her skirt.. revealing inch after precious inch of those stunningly gorgeous legs.. the stockings.. the garters.. his poor heart nearly lept from his chest when she told him he should have asked if he wanted a Mistress.. he gasped when she leant in.. when she straddled his legs.. his eyes were up.. watching her as she took on this role.. this new persona for him.. she was doing this for him.. the chair suddenly dropped and he groaned.. he was now eye level with that luscious tight little cunt of hers.. he eyed the tattoo.. the way those pearls glistened..the way every time he breathed in he could taste her.. her scent was strong and addictive.. incredibly lush..

her tone was easily controlling the beast..like someone caressing a savage cat into submission.. she could have asked him to do anything in these moments and he would have.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose..-softly spoken.. a tone she wouldn't recognise.. at least not yet.. and just how she took it then would probably tell her if it was something she needed.. or just something she was doing for him..he looked up to her then.. spying the change.. the colouring in her eyes.. the golden hue.. he watched her lips curling into that sweet sultry grin.. she was already gorgeous.. she was already fucking hot.. this just threw her up another fifty or so levels.. she was off the chart now.. his poor heart ached in his chest.. much like his cock did restrained in his slacks.. -.. Famished.. -he whined softly when she asked if he was hungry.. and he was starving for her.. the shower scene earlier was just the appetiser.. it started the drug addiction.. and now he so desperately desired the main course..

he watched her as she shimmied her precious little ass onto that table.. spreading her creamy white thighs nice and wide.. her heels connecting with his shoulders..she crooked her finger and he moved inward without so much as a word.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose.. -he'd offer graciously in thanks for allowing him to.. his gaze would linger upon her for but a moment longer.. before he would lean forward.. her scent ..her heat hitting him hard.. making him groan.. before his tongue would glide up along that strand of pearls.. tasting her upon them.. just barely touching that sweet cunt before he nudged them a little to the side with the tip of his nose.. his tongue would dip between those parted slick wet lips.. tasting.. teasing.. flicking.. touching..

he'd trail his tongues tip down the length of her.. all the way down and then right back up again.. circling that sticky sweet entrance.. before dipping inside her.. flattening his tongue out.. only to curve and lap up those incredibly addictive juices of hers.. he'd lift up a little more.. rubbing the flat of his tongue against that little pleasure bead.. back and forth.. back and forth.. before wrapping his lips around it and giving it a sweet naughty little tug.. he just couldn't get enough of her.. he supp his fill from that tight wet little cunt of hers.. suckling those pearls into his mouth.. cleaning them right up.. his stubble leaving her skin a little red.. a little raw.. giving just the right amount of texture to drive her wild.. -.. My goddess you taste incredible.. -he whined-

[BadInfluence]

“I don’t forgive you.” And she didn’t... Not yet, at least, because what he had done? Really and truly hurt her. What had she done to deserve that? Nothing. Even though he had been hurt in the past, and he had been hurt a LOT, she had already shown multiple times that she? Was not like them. She’d almost been raped, nearly killed, and then actually DIED because of her actions for him. In keeping him safe, putting walls around him so his enemies couldn’t reach him, couldn’t hurt him anymore... She’d put herself in so much harm and on such a rough path so she could be with him... And all it took was a piece of lousy paper to make him doubt her. Yes. It hurt. It stung and it made her heart bleed... She asked him about Grace then, and his words, well it was there on her face... That was pretty much the wrong answer.

“Are you playing me for a fool right now, Jacob?” She asked flat out... Did he think she was stupid? “Doesn’t change anything? Jacob, she went from being an ex-lover who took advantage of you while you were still virtually a child, to a Dominatrix who had you under her boot heel for years. There are WORLDS of difference between the two Jacob, and how they can, and do affect you.” Maybe that was the downside of having a strong, smart partner? They tended to call you on your bullshit. She let him explain a bit more, to try and find his way through the muddled thoughts and recollections, but all she heard? Were more reasons why there was a huge cause to be concerned, her fears and worries about Grace were more than just a little realized, they were damn near set down in holy stone fucking tablets. “The fact you say you got away? You do realize that sounds in every syllable like someone who’s escapes an abusive relationship. The thing about abuse? It doesn’t just fade away with the bruises.” She knew more than enough about that because of the girls at the pleasure houses, the abused wives who had to get an abortion because their husband didn’t want any kids, the rape victims who were a little too trusting of men... She’d seen it in all sorts of walks of life, and sadly enough, few were more pressing or obvious than some of the orphans she had once helped care for...

“You know... I never thought our relationship would be the kind where I would have to coerce you to telling me the truth.” She said before Faelon came out to ask her to dance and she gladly went... Ok, not gladly, her heart was broken... It hurt so damned bad for so many reasons... He blindly trusted Cora but her he didn’t trust at all... How could anyone NOT feel pained by that? She had only left to help his family, strangers to her but dear to his heart, so she had gone when called for aid... Her thoughts were a painful nest of thorns that kept pricking her where ever she turned before she asked Faelon to watch over Jacob, she knew without her in the house, Grace was going to basically have Jacob on the buffet line... “Ricarnarvon was easy... He was so obvious it was like a hatchet to the face... It’s the spiders I now worry about...” Would he understand what she meant? The feeling that Grace was a black widow hadn’t left her once, like the moment it flitted into her mind she couldn’t stop it from taking root, growing larger and larger... She was old sure, but surely not old enough to have outlived multiple elvish husbands? She wanted to read into it, to go to Arvandor and find out just what sort of a woman she really was, without anyone there to add glitter and shine to what may very well be little more than warm piss in a plastic glass...

When Jacob was under Graces sway it was Faelon who caught it, she had been facing the other way but she was grateful for it, stepping in to take her place... Switching partners as it were... It was too obvious that he was shaking, the way he flinched at her soft touch, and her mind was just confirmed... Yes... He was definitely in danger from Grace... It was easier to hide the pain with Faelon, she could slap a mask on, no one would be the wiser... But near Jacob it was all brought right back up, overflowing like a damn about to burst, her eyes tearing up... An occasional drop escaping to trail down her cheek... Her steps were messier than what he knew she could do, she stumbled and tripped, missed a step or turned wrong... Her mind and heart were too heavy a burden for her feet to bear gracefully... Feeling his fingers on her cheeks as he caught each saltry drop, hearing his words of love, his apology... Their steps slowing to a standstill as he tried to explain... “If you always look for shadows Jacob, the shadows will come looking for you, I promise...” As an orphan she knew all about that other penny, she was far too familiar with how those things went, and how dangerous it was to hope about anything... The moment you hoped was the moment you opened your heart to the angry claws and teeth of reality, and in order to preserve herself, to exist in a world that owed her nothing? She’d learned a long time ago not to hope... To take life exactly as it presented itself and work through it all, to focus on ensuring she had a future of some sort, something to keep her going... Then? She’d found him all of a sudden, like a match strike in the dark he illuminated everything, bathed her in a soft glow and wonderful warmth... She trusted in him, in that light and the peace that came with it, the hope that had found a crack in her armor and flourished there like a weed a sidewalk... He apologized again and she wasn’t ready to forgive him, her heart was still bleeding and she wasn’t prepared to be the stronger party right now, so instead? She took some information and put it into action, silencing him and shifting the gears, into something a lot smoother... Hotter... Tempting and likewise wonderfully forbidden... Drawing his mind out of his mistakes and into something else, that shower they had shared just a couple hours ago, where they had gone to a place well beyond body and mind... Into a place their souls had met and mingled, flesh used as the tool to achieve it, that simultaneous orgasm that had rocked them both to the very marrow of their bones...

It was dangerous but it was a sweet risk, and at this point she was starting to question her own convictions, if it was really worth it... To save his reputation at the cost of their relationship? If a little piece of paper could rock his foundation so badly, what would days, possible weeks to do them? How badly would Grace errode the structure of their love without anyone there to stop her acid rain? The air around them shifted and changed, she felt something bubbling to the surface again, that pain behind her eyes had shifted... Moved... Narrowed itself to a sort of throbbing ache behind her nipples and more decadent places... “Just tell me you want me to stop... From your heart... Mean it and I will...” She crooned into his ear... Something was slowly shifting inside her, stirring awake like the first buds on the branch of a once snow clad tree... Promising little things of green just waiting to burst... It was lush to push him along, to take him through a hot little jaunt along memory lain, wanting to bend him just a bit more... Unaware of the fact she was virtually oozing pheromones so deliciously they could make an eunch hard... The men in the room seeing Jacob as a sort of competition, wanting to jostle him out of place, but she? Was entirely unaware of what was going on, and like him she was confused at the sudden clumsy movements of the other dancers, figuring that... Perhaps it was time to go...

The change in the music was just what they needed to escape without much notice, the few who did catch him she had such an easy and completely viable reason for their departing together, the way he had acted... His hardness under her hand as they had danced those last moments, the absolute enthusiasm when she had offered they go somewhere more... Private... When she saw Grace though it was impossible to not take the chance to stab at her, a part of her wanted that revenge, to make her hurt as badly as she had been minutes ago... Mentioning Nautilous and Sydel... It was as obvious as all get out that Grace didn’t believe her, but hey, it wasn’t her funeral. She was simply passing along a message, and one that if Grace had the sense God gave a goat? She’d take it and run right back to Arvandor... Otherwise? The reaper and her lover were going to come for her, of that she had no doubt. And... If Sydel took too long? She honestly couldn’t say she wouldn’t kill grace herself for hurting Jacob. She left Grace there to stew in her own thoughts as they wove between this table and that, making sure just enough people saw them leaving any why, just to ensure that no one came looking later... She had an idea she wanted to try out, and while she had no idea if it would work or not, at least she could say she tried...

Though if anyone were to tell her she was hypnotic right now she’d laugh and tell them they had one too many cocktails. Oblivious didn’t begin to cover how unaware she was of the effect she was having, the pheromones just dripping off of her, the sheer desireability and confidence that almost shone out of her skin like the gems flashing on her dress. No in her mind? They were just being very lucky that everyone was understanding as she guided Jacob out of the main hall and into what she hoped was a more private area, something akin to a conference room would be ideal, but she’d make due with a janitor closet... Luck was on their side though, there was a room that had been filled with tables and chairs from the main area where the party was being held, a wide variety of sizes and shapes sort of hodge podge here and there... She went to the door once they were in and locked it, both top and bottom before she would slide a chair under the handle, making sure there was no chance that anyone would come in and find them doing anything. Once they were in private she told him that Nautilous had filled her in on what a switch was, their rarity and speciality in bed, the talents they had...

“That you’re rare and special... You have the ability to be both a dominant partner, and a submissive one as well, which is something not many people can do... It’s a very desirable talent.” Combined with what she had read in the book so far and what he had said to her, how he had acted, it didn’t take a lot to put two and two together... Which also explained in a way why Grace was so hot after his heels, or why Cora had so easily slipped him, things of that nature... He reacted to what his partner needed in bed, if she wa a submissive he was the dominant, and vice verse but there was a downside to this... That was that he had no one to do the same for him... He’d have to completely switch partners if he needed a different outlet which was again, probably why Cora and Grace had hurt him so badly... His greatest talent as a lover was also a weakness in relationships... Unless of course... He found another just like him...

Nautilous had asked her if she was a switch but she honestly couldn’t say yes or no to that, she had never had the chance to find out, she and Jacob were just... Well... Themselves... There was no dominant or submissive, they were simply enjoying each other thoroughly in every way that presented itself, so there hadn’t been a chance for her to decide one way or the other... But now? Well, she was going to try, after all the book hadn’t lead her wrong yet... She pulled that chair over with the end of her heeled slipper, telling him to sit and when he didn’t listen, she made sure he knew she was displeased... A yank on that tie... She was sliding herself into a new persona, something rich and dark, dangerous... This side... It was powerful, fierce and in control, knew how to make him bend... It was a little scary at first, that power shift, pushing herself into that position... She’d never been bossy her entire life, but she’d never been submissive either, she’d just floated along... But now? Now she was stretching herself out in more than one way, trying out new things, and the scariest part for her?

She liked it...
No..
She needed it...

Something in the way he bent for her, in that submission the first moment, when she wrapped those cuffs magically about his wrists... That tingle, that spark and stab that had begun to grow quite painful subsided, shifted to something incredibly pleasurable... A warm tingle at her nipples and core, one that only got hotter, pushed her harder... Every movement she made now had a touch more power to it, growing in leaps as her confidence surged, the mantle of Mistress setting beautifully about her metaphorical shoulders... Every move was calculated, dropping him down that much more, physically and sexually she was putting him beneath her... Asserting her own control and strength over him, wanting to fill this role for him, but for herself too... She needed it as much as he did... “Good boy...” She crooned when he answered her by the title she told him to use, and all she needed to hear was the pitch there, the sound... Oh if something as simple as tone could carry a thousand words... She moaned, surprising herself as the submission in his voice seduced her, her thighs closing for a moment in sheer pleasure... Something was wrong... But maybe it was right?... She’d never felt this way before in her life, not with him or even in her wildest dreams, she could feel it coursing through her veins... Like liquid bits of light that popped and flashed with all the fury and fullness of champagne bubbles... Was this what happened to a person after they died?... What ever it was, she would question it later, right now? She was entirely too bent in the moment, on savoring and supping on every luscious second, unwilling to let a single atom of it slip through her fingers...

“I suppose I can be generous and feed my new pet... After all, you are mine now, every inch of you is just for me and my pleasure. Understand?” It was less of a question and more of an order, a statement of fact that she was claiming him right then and there, removing any stain or stamp that Grace might have had... Sure, she couldn’t undo years of training in only a few moments but she could put a buffer there, she could plant the image of herself in this moment in his mind... Give him something to hold onto like a shield against any further attack... She pulled herself up onto the table, dragging her skirts up and back so her thighs were bare, those incredible black lace panty with the fortunes worth of black pearls resting so snugly against a beautiful and petite cream and rose colored cunt...

She told him to eat her cunt and he obliged deliciously, something she hadn’t expected to feel so damned good, how it changed even this intimate act into a power play... He was doing this because she ordered him to, knowing he wanted to obey her, to follow her commands... “Mmm, yes pet... There’s my good boy...” She moaned as he started to softly move over her, just touching her lightly, spreading her lips just a touch... A little more.... Then he switched it up and she cried out hotly in pleasure, her thighs clamping down around his head as her heels dug into his shoulders... Her hands gripping that table for all she was worth as she arched and pressed her ass down harder onto that table, panting and moaning as he feasted on her... That stubble was something else, she might just order him to keep it around for their lovemaking, it was incredibly addictive... Far too good to let him shave off without giving it a good long use... He spoke on her taste and he’d find her hand buried in his hair, yanking it at the roots just enough to sting, to make him ache a little hotter... “Excuse me?... It’s ‘Goddess you taste incredible, Mistress Rose...” She said pulling his head back just a little farther as she moved in and pulled his tie open with a bit of a yank, his high shirt collar went next before she leaned down and bit him hard between neck and shoulder, suckling hotly to leave him a hickey for his transgressions...

She pushed him back a few inches from her with her heeled shoe, reaching back to undo the zipper on her dress, letting her breasts spill out the front, full and heavy with desire... The tattoo between them that inked its way down her center... She stepped out of it, letting the dress rest in a beautiful pile of glittering blue at the foot of the table, stalking towards him in nothing but increidbly high heels, garders and those lovely silk stockings... “We really must get your manners right... I won’t have my first pet be sloppy... You’re better than that, aren’t you? You don’t want to embarrass your Mistress, do you?” She crooned and cooed as she spoke, the way her hips swung, that golden hued light in her eyes... She was voluptuous, desirable, incredibly sexy.... She was at her peak, luscious and madly arousing, every movement she made was there to entice raw hunger from him... Those pheromones kicked into such a high drive it would have driven any male within a good ten foot radius to whine and beg...

Standing before him she lifted her dainty little foot and pressed it right over his throbbing cock, just a touch of pressure, making it feel incredibly good while also thrilling him with the risk of danger... Would she hurt him?... “Who’s cock am I pressing?” She’d ask, and if he said his cock? He’d be swiftly corrected by a firmer pressure and a growl from her... Waiting for the correct one which was to say it was her cock... “Should I make you cum?” She asked, removing her foot from his groin, walking around to the back of his chair... Leaning over him so her breasts were on either side, pressing full and hot around him, her hands coming up over his shoulders... To tug and twist on her nipples, to flick and tease them, her soft cries of pleasure getting deeper... Hotter... She was tormenting herself just out of his view, close enough to touch but not to see, hearing her and able to smell her arousal while he could do nothing about it...

“God... Fuck this feels incredible... Being pregnant makes them so sensitive... Can you imagine pet?... It’s your baby in me that’s making me so hot... So hungry... Everything feels so good...” She breathed, writhing against his chair, panting as she worked herself towards a hungry little peak... “Such a good Pet... Knocking up your Mistress like this... It’s driving me wild...” She could tell he had a thing for her being pregnant, that much she had figured out a bit earlier on, so now? Why not up the ante? She slid around the side of his chair again, fisting one hand in his hair, the other hand slid down to catch the clasp of the pearls... To tug them so they rolled and pulled along her clit, making her pant and writhe... All of this just a hairs breath away from his face, holding him there so he could see, smell and hear it all... But not be able to touch... “Open your mouth pet.” She’d order, breathless and panting but it was still and order, and once his mouth was open? She’d stand on his thighs, letting her heels dig into the strong muscles there, both hands in his hair as she rolled her hips over his mouth... No pattern or rhythm, she was on the cusp, it was all a frenzy of movement... She came then, hard and sweet, pulling hard enough to tangle some strands of his hair around her fingers as she cried out... Nearly falling from the pleasure as she bent over him, her hands falling to his shoulders to hold on, to ride it out as she came all over his mouth and chin...

Was she done though? Hardly... She stepped down, panting with a lovely sheen of sweat to her skin that made her seem to sparkle and glow, her thighs soaked with her own cum and his spit... She reached down to undo his belt... His button and fly... Releasing that rock hard cock to spring free, to throb and bounce with a life of it’s own, sliding the pointed tip of her slipper along his bare cock... Catching her breath as she held onto the table, shaking she had cum so hard, something... No... Everything about this definitely did something for her... She then pushed herself off the table and settled into his lap...Or rather... She imapled herself right on his cock with a sudden sweet cry as she bottomed out, her legs over the arms of his chair, her back to him as she settled in... Guiding his hands to grip the heels of her shoes, a counter balance as she flexed once... Twice... Thank God she had spent so many years climbing trees and building up her muscles and stamina... “You don’t get to cum unless I say so. Understood?” She didn’t really ask it, she ordered it, reaching back to lock her fingers behind his neck... She began to bounce in his lap, thudding his cock up deep inside her, hard and fast as she dug her nails into his skin... Within a few moments she was tighter than a drum, crying out over and over again as her pussy drooled it’s pleasure over his cock and lap, thudding down with enough force to make him bottom out deeper than he had ever gotten before... Her ass jiggling in his lap as she fucked him...

Rising him hard she worked him like her own personal little fuck machine, throwing herself into another orgasm within minutes, sobbing brokenly as she jerked and spasmed atop of him... Looking up a moment as she rested her head on his shoulder to catch her breath she saw it then... A Janitor had been in the room, organising something in the closet and came out to see them there, fucking in the chair... And hadn’t dared move or breath... Completely enslaved to the scene before him... Cock harder that the mop handle he had in his hands... She stopped a moment, going pale as she was laid completely bare, pussy still spasming in the after echos of pleasure... Then something shifted... She smiled at the Janitor knowingly then and tilted her head just a bit... Giving Jacob the same view she had... “We have an Audience pet... Should we stop? Or should I keep fucking you till you have my permission to cum?... He won’t say anything, will you, Mr. Janitor?” She crooned as the guy shook his head back and forth so fast she worried he might pull something... She did however release Jacob from the shackles, taking his hands and pressing over over her breast, the other over her belly... “Have you ever seen a pregnant elf get fucked, little human?” She asked the man, another rapid shake of his head, oh he was struggling wasn’t he... Poor human... She motioned to a chair there at the side of the room. “Take a seat human... Enjoy yourself... Cum to your hearts content as you watch me fuck my pet... A reward for keeping your mouth closed for the rest of your life...” There was no denying it, there was a threat and a promise there, that if ht eman said a word she’d make sure it was the last thing he ever said...

“Come pet... Fuck your Mistress...” She ordered as she leaned back on him, her arms over the chair as she continued to lift herself up and down, spread so wide... Completely aware there was a human there jerking off furiously as he watched the show, two incredibly high end elves... Upper strata they would appear... Just oozing pheromones as they fucked... It was like the porn of porns, live, and just for him... She’d ride Jacob to another two orgasms that made her cry out, flooding his cock more and more with her lovely cunt juices, every inch of her aching deliciously... Like she was climaxing but it wasn’t... It wasn’t THE climax... She kept pushing herself, another orgasm... Another... Seeking out something elusive... Poor Jacob would be close to forty five minutes of her riding him without giving him permission to cum... Then she realized that was it... What she was looking for but couldn’t find...

She was frustrated and angry now, but at least she knew what she wanted, sliding out of that chair... Her own cum dripping from her well fucked folds before she would reach down and yank Jacob up by his tie and kiss him hard enough to make his lips ache... She’d plant herself on the table then and laid back. “Spread my thighs as wide as you can Pet... I want to feel it burn, I want you to put me on display... Then I order you to fuck me as hard as you can, to be as loud as you need to be, I want to hear it all... Every word and every sound...” She ordered as she waited for him to comply, but once he did, oh God... All the bets were off... She screamed when he would imaple her, it hurt deliciously, she felt the table digging into her ass... Felt it shake and move... Her thighs were split perfectly, his hands gripping tight enough to bruise the delicate inner skin, her cunt already so tight from it he’d have to fight to push in... To win out over her reactions to the pleasure... She saw the janitor there move, to shift his position to watch them better, and she knew every inch of her was on display... All of this... All of it was a heavy sort of madness that made her body kick off... That last key needed... She knew what she was... Who she was...

A switch with voyeuristic tendencies...

She came, over and over again, panting and crying out... Oh she loved mastering him, getting EXACTLY what she wanted from him, able to order him to give her everything she desired... Their relationship, thier bond felt even stronger than before for this, like they had added another layer around it... Better fortifications and foundations... She felt him start to pulse, his cock getting thicker, bigger... “Do it! Let go Pet... Cum inside your Mistress... Empty your balls into my womb...” She said, panting hotly as she arched into those violent thudding thrusts until he came, her nails digging into his suit clat ass as she cried out in perfect pleasure, finding that elusive ideal orgasm. The one that shook her from the outside in and then back out, made her cry out over and over again in pleasure, a thin stream of drool from the corner of her mouth as he gave her everything she could have ever wanted in that moment... She could smell the scent of cum, not Jacobs but the Janitors, hearing the mans broken pants and cries of pleasure... The way he sagged into the seat... She herself felt about the same, completely exhausted, absolutely satisfied... Her pussy hurt wonderfully, her muscles ached and her back throbbed, all signs of a truly amazing fuck session... She slowly sat up after a few minutes, feeling his cum gush out between her thighs, dribbling down to hit the carpet... “Clean me up Pet.” She ordered, leaning back a bit so he could lick his cum out of her cunt, cleaning her up so there wasn’t a trace of sex left on her, only then did she slide down... Ignoring the Janitor there as his purpose for her pleasure had passed... Stepping into her dress and pulling it back up, using one of the mirrors in the room to touch her hair up, turning left and right... Making sure she looked perfect, not a hair out of place, not a single wrinkle of her dress... The Janitor made use of his position and cleaned up their mess, wiping up every bit of sweat and sex, a scented powder over the carpet to remove the smells... He was very thorough, apparently he had his own fetish, a wet dream she and Jacob had fulfilled... Of course he would do his job ten times better than ever before, just in hopes of having another chance later on down the road, perhaps.

Jacob had time to clean himself up, using a little magic if he had to of course, she hadn’t exactly been careful with his clothes... She’d unlock the door then, setting the chair to the side where they would then step out together, feeling amazing... “Are you happy?” She’d ask them as they walked quietly together, her cheeks still flushed but she could blame that on heat and alcohol, her steps a bit shaky... Same thing... They were close to the venu when she paused, turning to look up at him a moment, taking his hands in hers. “I’m just like you Jacob...I need that sort of thing too I think... I felt so Good... Like I was free...” She said with a soft warm smile, her cheeks a touch redder, looking to the side... “Though the... Janior was a surprise... I thought it would make me want to stop but...” This was a new area of her... The book hadn’t gotten to that area just yet... “It sort of... Made it better... Like... I think... think I like being watched... Is that... Weird?” She was learning that sex wasn’t a bad thing, there was no wrong type so long as it was between two consenting adults, so there was nothing bad about it... But weird? Well now weird was definitely a thing...” 

[Deleted]

..she had lead him away from the dance floor.. away from the party..the celebration.. all of it ..down a long dimly lit corridor.. through a few more of the smaller offices to the side.. until they came upon that boardroom of sorts.. she locked the door and then demanded the floor..in a few words.. with the perfect tone.. she had him.. hook line and sinker.. his ass hit that chair hard.. his arms were fastened down and his attention squarely locked.. he watched her with interest..

intrigued that this side of her had been hidden away.. the way she sauntered.. that incredibly sexy sway of her hips.. the way she commanded the room.. it could easily have been filled with people in those moments and he wouldn't have heard a wink from any of them.. everything else just seemed to melt away.. he found his heart seizing.. his throat dry.. his body ached.. he spoke when she questioned him.. in order and with only the respect she deserved.. referring to her as Mistress Rose as requested.. it seemed to just roll of the tongue as if he had always spoken it.. as if it were just meant to be.. she asked if he were hungry and he answered honestly.. he was famished though it was far from for food.. it was just for her..

she was gracious in her acceptance.. that she would be generous and feed her new pet.. that he was hers now.. every single inch of him.. just for her and her own pleasure.. he nodded his head-.. Yes Mistress Rose, Id be honoured to be your pet, this body is yours for your own pleasure.. whenever it is you should so desire it.. -his voice would roll out softly.. his eyes were upon her.. lifting up to her as she dropped him lower.. and lower.. and he settled in very comfortably down beneath her.. she commanded of him to eat that precious little cunt of hers and he obliged.. easily falling into position.. his head between those sweet lush creamy thighs as he performed as instructed.. his tongue curled and lapped at those slick wet lips.. he teased and tormented that little pleasure bead.. eating her as if his own life depended on it.. her cries and moans were music to his ears.. and he knew he needed more of it.. he desired to know she was enjoying it.. it just pushed him harder.. it made him reach farther..

he groaned when she locked her knees.. her thighs around his head.. stealing his breath from his lungs in the process.. but he didn't stop.. he kept on pleasuring her..though the sheer heavy fog in his mind made him mess up.. and he spoke out of turn.. feeling her fingers suddenly in his hair pulling it at the roots.. he gasped.. he hissed.. his eyes blinking open as he looked up to her .. feeling her yanking at his tie.. the upper few buttons of his shirt popping from their restraint before she sunk her teeth down into the side of his neck.. he cried out-.. Im Sorry Mistress.. it wont happen again.. -his heart just about leapt free from his chest in that moment.. his body flooding with goosebumps..

he swallowed a little harshly when she shoved him back with the heel of her shoe.. gasping out a panted breath as he watched her remove that dress fully.. her tits falling from their confines.. full and heavy.. that tattoo that snaked its way down her perfectly hot little frame.. he swallowed again.. curling his toes under within his boots.. she stalked toward him in her almost naked glory.. Fuck she was incredible.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose.. You are right I am better than that.. -his eyes dropped.. -.. I would never ever want to embarrass you Mistress.. I will work harder and be more careful from now on..

the pheromones were driving him crazy.. but just her on top of that..well she could have asked him to do anything at all in those moments and he would have done it without hesitation.. his head lifted suddenly when she pressed her heel over his cock.. his brows furrowed for a fleeting moment as he felt that pressure.. the risk of danger was most definitely there.. he swallowed down a hitched breath.. -.. Your Cock Mistress Rose.. -he would answer without hesitation.. she asked if she should make him cum as she removed that heel and slowly stalked around him-.. Only if it pleased you Mistress.. -he felt the weight of those luscious tits at either side of his head.. her bodies heat and scent.. his lids grew heavier.. half closing then as he began to bite into his lower lip..

she was driving him to complete madness.. her cries then as she began to tease herself..she'd have to have heard his breath catch...the soft groans that would flow forth.. and the simple fact that he had to shift a few times on that chair.. those pants of his were getting incredibly tight.. she tormented him further.. that it was his baby in her that was making her so hot. that pregnancy was making everything a lot more sensitive than it would have been normally.. Fuck.. his fingers curled within the manacles.. his knuckles almost completely white-.. Yes Mistress.. I am honoured you chose to carry my child.. I would do anything for you that makes you feel good..

-she suddenly grabbed his hair.. fisting it as he groaned...watching her tugging on those pearls.. hearing her moan and whimper.. watching her squirm and shift.. she ordered him to open his mouth and he did.. his lips fell open for her.. though he grimaced a touch when her heels connected with his thighs.. before she dropped that slick wet cunt on his face and he just about died and went to heaven.. her hands in his hair.. her slit on his tongue.. what more could a guy want.. he felt her rolling.. rubbing.. using him as her own little masturbatory device.. his tongue extended to drag over her clit.. so she had just that little bit more along with his stubble to drive her over the edge.. before she climaxed.. he growled when his hair was torn from its roots.. feeling those sticky juices coating his tongue, his cheeks.. his chin.. before she stepped down. he breathed deeply.. his face.. his neck glistening from her pleasure as he looked a little roughed up.. his hair owning that tousled look..

she released his cock.. and it just sprung to life once it was free of its restraint.. he didn't expect what happened next though.. when her back was pressed to him and she all but impaled that sweet hot body of hers onto his.. his cock just being devoured as she bottomed out.. his body stiffened and he grit his teeth down.. straining against the restraints then.. because Fuck if she wasn't incredibly tight.. his fingers flexed when she guided them to hold onto her heels.. and he did as instructed.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose.. -he spoke softly.. almost at a whine when she said he couldn't cum unless he was given permission.. that was going to be hard.. knowing how fucking hot she was.. before she began to bounce .. thudding down atop his cock over and over.. the sounds echoed throughout the wide open room..

skin slapping skin.. her pleasure driven cries.. his own deeper.. the groans.. the hissing and grunting as her ass jiggled every time she slammed down hard.. he couldn't even rock his head back as her fingers were flexed behind his neck.. using him for balance.. he felt every orgasm she had.. the way her cunt drew in and tried in earnest to milk him.. as if coaxing him to cum.. and it took all he had in him to not let go.. to hold back for her.. the last thing he wanted to do was fuck up.. her head found his shoulder then and he exhaled a rather shaky breath.. glad for the moment.. just the moment that she wasn't moving..

he hadn't noticed the Janitor in the room.. until she pointed him out.. he glanced over.. looking to the gentleman with the hard cock a few rows back.. only the goddess really knew how long the dude had been there watching.. he swallowed then when she asked what he wanted to do-.. If I may Mistress.. -he spoke softly.. close to her there.. -.. I think putting you on display..being the Goddess that you are until you get what you want from me.. has a lot more value than stopping.. But your pet will do whatever it is you want.. whatever it is you decide.. -he watched.. he observed.. before he felt his hands free.. the restraints pulled open.. one felt the weight of one of those luscious tits.. the other over her at that point perfectly smooth belly.. he remained quiet whilst his Mistress and the Janitor conversed.. he just stayed in position.. holding her there.. his fingers barely touching though grateful for the ability to..

before she told him to fuck her.. feeling her lean back against him as she began to thud down over him once more.. he'd feel her tits bouncing this time .. all an added bit of torment for him.. once.. twice again she climaxed over him.. he could feel all that cum just oozing down his shaft.. coating his thighs.. before she suddenly slid off of him.. he hissed at the sudden feeling of nothing.. his cock had grown quite fond of her cunts tight hot tunnel.. and now it was gone.. before he had a chance to even blink she had him on his feet.. her fingers around his tie.. and her lips locked.. a hard and fast kiss.. enough to bruise his lips and cause him to waver on his feet.. she layed back upon the table there.. her thighs spread open..

an instruction given.. to open her up nice and wide.. to put her on display till it hurt.. and then to fuck her.. like he'd have to be asked twice.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose.. -he stepped in.. his smooth fingers glided along her thighs then.. drawing them open nice and wide.. and then a little further.. till she would have felt that burning in her muscles.. in her joints.. his grip would be tight.. hard.. there'd be marks without a doubt.. he didn't just hold her skin though.. he gripped onto those stockings.. those garters.. he used them to keep her in place.. to be able to move her if he desired it..

before he thrust that hard thick cock up into her .. one quick hard invasive movement.. and he fucked her hard.. he thrust into her with such a speed.. those sounds echoed throughout the room once more.. thud.. thud..thud.. skin slapping against skin.. her slick wet cunt was music to his ears and no doubt the Janitors also.. he grit down his teeth as sweat began to bead down his back.. his forehead.. he had a beautiful view really.. he could watch his cock gliding effortlessly into that extremely tight little cunt of hers.. the way it attempted to restrict.. to not allow it.. only for him to invade it over and over . making the peach pink skin pull and stretch..

he could also see the way those heavy full tits of hers bounced wildly.. and then of course her face.. her eyes.. the way her lips opened with every hot hard little cry..all of this.. in combination with the scent she was giving off.. there was no way he could hold back once he was given the permission to proceed.. and he gave her all he had in that moment.. no real steady rhythm.. sudden sharp fucking hard bursts.. and then a little slower.. dragging his cock till its head nearly popped free of her tight little hole.. before once more.. just thudding into her.. she could feel that pulsing.. the sudden change in size.. how he grew thicker.. his gasps.. his groans.. before she commanded him to let go.. and he did.. he cried out as he gripped onto her thighs incredibly tightly.. easily bruising that creamy white flesh in the process.. he cum hard.. coating her thoroughly.. painting every single fucking inch it could possibly reach.. he gasped for breath.. her nails digging into his ass just added that perfect fine line.. it was like a knife through the lustful fog.. keeping him level.. reminding him of the fact that he was hers.. and she was allowing him to do this..

he slowly released the hold he had upon her thighs then.. letting her muscles come back.. as he gradually withdrew when she moved to sit up.. fucking hell he was beat.. his body felt like it had been running a marathon.. she commanded he clean her.. -.. Yes Mistress Rose-.. his voice a little deeper.. a little more gravelly .. he dropped down to his knees then as he lapped at that sweetly abused little cunt of hers.. tasting his own cum along with hers.. cleaning her without tormenting her too much...he knew she had to be sensitive after that.. he was thorough and gentle.. before she moved to stand.. he watched her as she re-dressed.. before he himself would attempt to straighten himself.. wouldn't be an easy feat with a few buttons missing and the fact he had a lot of cum beneath those slacks of his thanks to her.. but he wasn't about to complain.. he re-tied his tie.. drawing the loops forward..

they could conceal the fact the top of his shirt was a bit stuffed..a few fingers back through his hair.. he looked a little out of it.. but he was presentable.. and thankfully it was dimly lit in the ballroom.. he watched her opening the door.. before he would step out with her.. his free hand coming down to press against her lower back.. he was still struggling to catch his breath.. making him cough every so often.. she asked if he was happy.. he turned.. looking down to her then..-.. Ive never been happier.. ever..-he walked with her a little further.. they were getting closer to the venue then.. before she stopped.. taking his hand.. he turned to face her then.. he tilted his head when she said she felt free then.. that she was like him.. that she needed it.. -.. Its not an easy road.. and a lot of people dont understand it.. or dont like it.. -his fingers curled around hers.. brushing lightly across her warmed skin-.. but..what you're feeling.. is how I feel.. that freedom.. regardless of the role.. is incredibly liberating.. its.. an almost out of body experience.. -he reached up to cradle her cheek-.. and Im lucky to have found someone that understands what I feel.. finally.. You should know.. that if there is ever anything that we do.. that you arent comfortable with.. you just need to tell me .. I think.. we will have to discuss this more..

-he watched her cheeks colouring.. his smile grew when she asked if it was weird that she liked being watched.. he shot her a wink there as he leant in to whisper-..Just means you're a exhibitionist.. and thats incredibly hot.. I look forward to exploring that with you.. -he glanced down to her a little longer then.. before he would open the door and allow her to enter first.. the music floating out and amongst them.. a lot of people were still dancing.. many were eating.. or discussing future seminars.. meetings.. he glanced around as the door came closed behind him.. Faelon caught sight of them both then and came over swiftly.. placing his cup down upon the table..-


F:.. Rose.. -he'd whisper.. -.. Faint.. now..


Jacob would look on a little confused.. glancing toward her as Faelon repeated himself wth a little urgency.. before hopefully she would drop and Jacob would catch her.. there was a collective gasp in the immediate are as people turned around to see her falling.. Faelon quickly went into Doctor mode.. getting Jacob to lay her down as he checked her out.. if she was a good little actress she'd remain perfectly still


F: She's Ok.. she's just overexerted herself.. its possible she's not quite over the poisons she was given.. Id recommend she rests.. Could you take her back to the hospital Jacob?


J: he caught on pretty quickly.. having seen Elizabeth starting to make a bee line for the pair of them before Faelon stepped in and took control.. he nodded.. Yes of course, I wondered if perhaps it would all be a bit much today.. the seminar.. and then this.. Ill get one of the nurses to keep an eye on her over night..


F: Ok people back away, she's fine, she just needs to rest.. go back to your.. well.. thing.. -he would turn then ushering people away including Elizabeth, however she wasn't going to be so easily swayed.. coming over as Jacob picked Rose up in his arms.. cradling her against his chest


Elizabeth: I can take her if you like Jacob?.. I am heading back down that way anyway, its near where I am staying.. We could share a ride..


He would go to speak.. to return a rebuttal.. an excuse.. before Kit would tap upon Elizabeths shoulder


Kit: Dr Grace, My name is Kit, Im going to be one of the students back at the Mansion this year.. Im so looking forward to working close to you.. Id love to learn more about your future endeavours if you have a moment.. I've been interested in your work for a very long time. Its going to be an honour to have you with us


Elizabeth just sparkled then, it was like a celebrity having the spotlight placed directly upon them.. and she slipped easily into character.. turning to wander off with Kit.. it was all orchestrated perfectly.. and worked a lot smoother than Faelon could have ever imagined.. he came up behind Jacob and ushered the two of them out the side doors where a carriage was waiting..

He held her 'fainted' frame against his chest.. waiting until they got into the carriage there before he would give instruction on where they should be heading.. it was to that Cathedral.. the one she wanted to meet him at.. but they werent sure if they would get the chance.. the doors would close then and the carriage would be off and away from all the prying eyes.. -


I think Faelon knew something was about to happen before either of us even had the chance to see it.. -he nodded a little.. reaching up as he removed his tie there.. that deep red mark upon the side of his neck on display.. his hands fell to his knees there.. looking across to her-.. I figured.. and I sincerely hope this is alright with you.. that we needed to talk.. away from the chance of interruption.. away from eyes and gossip.. just.. you and I.. -he nodded.. rubbing his lips together-.. I need to lay open my past to you.. I need to tell you everything.. if you will permit me too.. Ill understand of course if you dont want to hear it.. or.. that you arent ready.. the ball is in your court.. I can take you back to the Inn if you want.. Just tell me what you want.



If they continued on to the Cathedral it would be all but deserted, so quiet.. just the soft sounds of the breeze in the trees.. the star lit beautiful night sky.. a huge full moon.. there would be blankets cushions.. some wine and a few small treats to eat.. just a space for them to settle..

This must be why people Sin... Some things just feel too damn good, and this was definitely one of them, without doubt... Why did it feel so good to drop him so low? Why did she feel an incredible rush as putting herself in the dominant role? It was empowering and liberating, it made her feel like she had a solar systems worth of energy in her veins, unstoppable, all powerful... Watching him slip so comfortably into the submissive role before her, knowing he wanted it, needed it... At first... At first she had done this just for him, shoved herself out of her comfortable little box, wanting to help him... To ground him... Give him a safe place... But as they went on? As she played with him, exerted her strength, her natural command... She found that the space outside that box, while big and a bit terrifying, was also incredibly lush... There was an addictive quality to standing over him while he ate her out, the orgasms were just that bit hotter, that much harder... It was like a drug in her blood, fogging up her mind while liberating her sexually, erasing those little ticks of nerves and a shyer nature...

It was too easy to slip into the roll, to let the position settle about her like a brides veil, and when he slipped up? She confidently corrected him with sharp movements, still incredibly sexually charged, still pleasurable... Just a bit more laced with pain than anything before it, and his reactions, that sharp cry... Christ... She moaned loudly, unable to resist it, her nipples so hard they hurt... "It better not Pet, otherwise I'll have to go out and buy a quirt, just to teach you some manners." The idea of laying that horse whip across his perfect ass, little love taps of the leathered square at the end, hearing him cry out in pain laced pleasure... She was shocking herself, she honestly was, but oh... Oh it was so incredibly heady...

Stripping down was easy, everything about this was easy as it evolved, budding and blossoming inside her like a flower... She was unafraid, unashamed, and unabashedly female... She took her sex and owned it, wielded it like a weapon against him, cutting him down to size... Turning him into her beloved pet... Insanity... Beautiful, addictive, utterly vital insanity... "Yes, my sweet little Pet, I know you will..." She said with a caress to his cheek with the back of her hand, sliding it down to his jaw, to trace along the strong lines there... Moving along to press her toes against his cock to torture and tempt him, to tease him with her scent, with her moans... Her dirty bit of vernacular... There was a heady risk, would she hurt him for his failure? Would she apply a bit more pressure? "Exactly. This is my Cock. Don't ever forget that." She said as she let off of him then, stalking around to the back of his chair so her tits were on either side of his head, playing with herself as she talked to him...

Each syllable was dripping into his ear like verbal absinthe, entirely intent on getting him utterly fucked on her words, to test and confirm things... Oh yes... Someone definately had a baby fetish, she could tell in how white his knuckles were, how he was struggling against the cuffs... She knew right then and there she bette find a way to prevent pregnancy that worked for her because if not? It didn't take a rocket scientist to sort that one out... "Is that so? Does my Pet have a fetish he needs to tell me about?" She teased and tormented, flicking her tongue along the tip of his ear, intent on dragging a confession out of him on that front... All before she couldn't take her own teasing anymore and she had to push herself a bit farther, taking those pearls under her control and moving over his face, her heels digging into his thighs... Oh she caught that grimmance, and a part of her almost stepped off in fear she might have hurt him too much, and she would have... If he didn't seem like a sinner who just got salvation the moment she planted herself over his face and began to ride his tongue and chin for all he was worth.

It didn't take her long to reach that place where she was lost to her own devices, riding that beautiful face of his, the way he helped her along with his tongue... Oh that skilled, wonderful, perfect tongue... She came hard with her hands fisted in his hair, crying out hot and sweet before she had to step down, otherwise she would have likely slid right on down to the floor. She knew she was making a mess of him, her cum was all over his chin and down his neck, his hair was a mess... And she loved it. He was hers, she was claiming him right here, right now... She was marking him in her own way, tying the two of them together in a new way, a way that... They both needed...

She turned around so her back was to him then, dropping onto his cock smoothly, she was so damned wet there would be no resistance... Just that incredibly tight slick vice that gripped him like a too tight glove, but oh, how delicious it would feel around his cock... Oh she knew he would have cum within a few moments of her riding him, and it was why she gave the order, made him hold her heels... It was a counterbalance yes, but it also made him focus on something other than how she felt around him, to give him a little bit of leverage... Though that was all the mercy she showed him as she rode him as if her life depended on it, hard, fast and sweet... She was punishing herself as well as him, she was still virgin tight and he was certainly a deliciously hung mate, pulling and tugging on her in every which way... Spreading her out wonderfully as she thudded down over and over again until she was a whimpering mess atop him, cumming over and over again until she had to stop for a moment... Her pussy aching... Oh it hurt so wonderfully good, just feeling him throbbing there, knowing he might have been willing to sell his soul to cum inside her...

It was then she noticed the human in the back corner, it was obvious he was trying to be at least a LITTLE respectful, but there's only so much coveralls can hide... And an erect cock is not one of them. She almost slipped out of the role, she almost hid against him, her natural shyness... That timid nature wanting to surface for a moment but she forced it back... She was young... She had a perfect body, a beautiful face, lovely hair... She was desirable, why should she hide what nature had given her, especially in an act meant purely for pleasure? She pointed him out to Jacob then, wondering what his thoughts were, if they should stop... Or keep going? His response was perfect and she reached up to caress down his cheeks, slow and sweet, flicking her tongue along the corner of his mouth for a moment... Hot and tempting... "I want him to watch... I want you to know someone's watching your Mistress being fucked..." Which shocked her but it was true... Knowing the guy was there, hungrily watching the two young elves make what could almost be called violent love, the obvious power play... All of it, from start to finish, it was so hot the sun seemed cold in comparison... She told the human he could stay, to take a seat and jerk off as much as he wanted, to enjoy himself... The cost of keeping his mouth shut... Freeing Jacob's hands so they could touch her... Feel her... The weight of her tits and the still perfectly flat and smooth expanse of her belly... All this before she began to fuck him once more, keeping his hands on her tits as she rode him hard all over again, cumming twice more but something was missing... Lingering on the edges just out of her grasp...

When it dawned what it was she pulled off of him without warning, hearing his hiss and groan, a hot sultry laugh escaping her lips... Bending over clean at the waist in front of him, sliding a finger along those sex soaked pearls, fingering herself off to another orgasm... All while he had to sit there and let his cock miss her cunt... Grabbing his tie afterwards she pulled him up and into a hot, hard kiss that would have curled his toes, letting him stand there dazed for a few moments... Setting herself up on the table she gave him his orders, to spread her wide and fuck her as hard as he wanted, as hard as he could... She wanted to hurt, she wanted to feel that burn, the brutality... She knew in this role what ever she wanted? Was hers... She could tell him exactly what she wanted and he would give it to her... Seeing him step in with his hands on her thighs, spreading her the way he did, oh she cried out in sweet pain... Feeling that burn race along her muscles as the tears sprung to her eyes. "Fuck yes Pet, just like that, such a good boy." She whimpered and mewled softly as he used her garters to keep her right where he wanted her, and then a moment later just rammed his cock into her, a sharp sweet scream echoed in the room from it. Oh it was perfect, it was divine, it was just what she wanted... What she needed... It hurt but it wasn't pain, it was something else, something utterly addictive that made her arch and writhe on that table. She bucked and pressed her ass into that table edge, feeling the bruises blossom and spread on her thighs from his grip, from the fury and speed he fucked her... She began to moan continously, unable to remain silent for even a second as she panted and cried out, each sharp sound full of unfiltered perfection... Her ass bruised and bore the red imprints of his sack, the table coated with cum and sweat, her nails raking into the lacquered surface... She could only take so much more herself, climaxing hard before giving him permission to cum, to fill her with his spunk...

As soon s that permission was given his entire being shifted, he found that rythm, or rather lack of one that sent him off the edge... Falling right off that edge with him in that orgasm she had been searching for, the one that was absolute perfection, that consumed her body and soul in fathomless pleasure... Oh she was hooked on that drug, she would seek it out every single time, she needed it like she needed to breathe... Falling into the abyss with tears in her eyes, her body flushed with it all, the feeling of owning and being owned... Belonging... She was a shattered mess inside and out but only the most perfect kind, sitting up slowly, gingerly... Commanding him to clean her up, his cum just gushing out of her with those little movements, she didn't exactly have anything on hand... Outside of the Janitor anyways and he was busy cleaning up his own ah... Adventure... She couldn't help the soft moans and pleasured whimpers as he licked her clean with the softest of caresses, because after that last one, she was just... Wiped... She blamed the shower for that one, they had created something amazing and she, well she might just be a little greedy for it... Redressing was easier for her than him, she only had the dress on after all, looking in a mirror to straighten the rest... Moving towards him to help with his own redressing, the buttons had flown for sure, she hadn't meant to... Well... Ok... Maybe a little... But not that much... Straightening his tie, repinning it, smoothing his hair back in the places he missed... They looked alright, a little flushed but not too bad, not this time at least... Consider it practice for future endeavors... Once they were done they left the room, she was a touch unsteady on her heels, flushed and a touch wobbly... Totally explainable... Before the entered the fray once more though she asked if he was happy... With what had happened between them... Was it what he needed? Did he like her in that role? Was it something that he would want again? She was worried... Nautilous had called him a switch... What if she wasn't good enough to fill his needs? Would he stray to Grace? Not out of willingness but out of a sheer need to fulfil an itch she couldn't scratch?

It made her heart feel so much lighter to hear him say he had never been happier, glad that he had at least found his center again, less of his balance after what Grace had been pulling... She had something to say though, something that was stuck in her mind, something that settled... Stuck... Nautilous had asked her if she had been a switch and at the time? She had no answer, she didn't even know what was one before he had explained it, so how could she say she was or wasn't? But after that moment in the room between them? It was impossible not to understand it now, it was like blowing sand off of a picture, suddenly everything was incredibly clear... Made sense... So many thing about herself just sort of fell into place, made her feel good, like it just... Clicked. "It's not normal, is it? That's why people are so unsettled by it... They like the world in salt and pepper status, but us, we're not like that at all... We're color in a monochrome world..." And things that are different? Tend to scare people... She leaned into the touch on her cheek, a soft sigh as she kissed his palm, listening to his words... How similar he felt to her... That sudden freedom in the moment... She was in control and she had the world at her fingertips... He didn't have to think or fight, he only had to obey and there was a freedom in that too... She took care of his needs and he took care of hers... A balance... "It's incredible... And addictive... It makes so many parts of my life suddenly become clear... Who and how I am... Why I never really fit in..." A gentle shake of her head a moment later. "You make my life make sense Jacob... I love you."

A whispered word as she got on her toes to gently kiss the corner of his lips, still tasting herself on his skin, the scent of her lingering on his clothes... "I know... I promise I will and you need to do the same... I sort of just... Wingged it in there... I was afraid I hurt you a few times... But yes... We really do need to talk about this..." But when? Where? Their moments together were so few, and about to get fewer still, with so many interruptions between... The confession after though, about being watched, she'd be lying if it didn't absolutely make her toes curl... It was hot, hotter than hot, it made her pulse race and she felt so incredibly sexy... It was insane, she'd always kept her body insanely private, especially given her tattoo and how it had a life of it's own... But somehow she was utterly turned on by having a complete stranger watching her get fucked on the table. Life was strange sometimes, but she had to ask if it was weird, maybe wrong... She was still figuring out so much after all. She blushed as she said it, asked that question of it, and the way he smiled... The whisper against her ear... Oh she couldn't help the little hiccup followed by a soft moan as she curled her fingers into his arm for a moment... Utterly delicious... "Oh Yes please..." She almost twitched and honestly? If it weren't for the fact she felt like she got just fucked by a ten tonne elephant cock she'd likely drag him off for a round two!

They were entering the main area when Faelon came over and suddenly told her to faint. She didn't need to be told much more than that, especially seeing Grace coming for them like a tornado for a trailer park, she instantly dropped without a sound... Trusting Jacob to catch her while she lay there, pretending to be completely limp, fainted right there in his arms... She listened to the room around them, completely still, even keeping her eyes motionless under her lids... Breathing shallow and slow as a fainted person would be... As soon as she heard Elizabeth chip in she wanted to get up and just kick her in the shin but no, she held off, just remained still... And when Kit spoke up? Good God she could have easily popped up like a daisy and kissed her silly for that.

Things passed smoothly then, they got out to the carriage without incident, and she made a mental note to do something incredibly special for those two without a doubt. Once they were private she opened her eyes and rolled over to look up at him, hearing him speak about Faelon, she couldn't help but roll her eyes a bit. "Grace is on you like crabs on a dockside whore." She muttered before letting out a soft sigh. "When I first met her I thought she was a nice scapegoat to tie to... A chance to throw the heat off of us... I never imagined we'd end up playing tag with a leper." Grace was the worst thing that could have happened, and who had thought of it first but her? She honestly thought it was a good idea but now it was seriously blowing up in her face like a bag of napalm strapped to a stick of tnt.

Reaching up she traced her fingers along the hicky she had given him before sitting up and sliding into his lap for the remainted of the ride. "I won't deny you anything Jacob... I know that we're doing all of this sort of hodge-podge, neither of us is really sure where we're supposed to go, just that we want to be there together..." A gentle kiss to his cheek as she took his hands in hers, giving them a warm squeeze before massaging them with warm caresses. "I want you to tell me all of it... Every bit. I can't promise how I'll react because I don't know, but I can promise I'm going to love you, no matter what skeletons you have in your closet." With that they rode the rest of the way to the cathedral where she had made sure to leave things for them if they got to make it, a picnic basket, blankets and pillows... She loved this place, it was man and nature combined, a beautiful gothic cathedral that had been forgotten up in the mountains... The roof had long fallen in and a stream made its way along where pews had once stood... The only holy doctrine laid down here were the ones the birds sang and the owls flew... She settled down on the blanket then, a pretty little blue and gold flower among the wild grasses and meadow blooms, pouring them both a glass of wine. She had a feeling this was going to be a long unveiling... And if she guessed right? He had his own demons lingering in the shadows. He looked so sad... No. Not sad, more so he looked somewhat conflicted, nervous when he had brought up wanting to talk. But what was it he was almost afraid of? What could he have done that was so bad? And would it make or break them?

Before he began to speak though she would stop him, reaching out she would undo his tie, gently remove his jacket from his shoulders... The last buttons of his tie... "Trust me..." She said as she removed his shirt then before taking her dress off, the panties soon following as she stood there naked before him, kneeling beside him she pulled the blanket up, and once he was naked? Pulled it up over them both, body to body, skin to skin... "I have to tell you something before you tell me anything." She said before pausing for a few moments. "I'm not an innocent person Jacob, nor am I a passivist, as I'm sure you've noticed about me. I don't know what she's done to you, or what power she holds over you, but I do know she is going to do everything she can to wrestle you back under her control." She probably wasn't saying anything he didn't already know. "I'm saying this because I need you to know I'm not going to play nice. If Grace comes after you I'm going to go after her full tilt. I will do anything and everything I need to in order to keep us safe... You, me, and our baby. I'm not going to let her ruin your life because it suits her, and I sure as hell won't sit back and let her destroy our love or our future because she can't stand to lose." A shrug of her shoulders for a moment there... Oh yeah, she knew that she was sounding virtually mercenary, but she had never once told him she was a lamb. She swung back at those who swung at her, and right now, Grace was aiming for her with a louisville slugger baseball bat. She wouldn't take any chances with this shit, she wouldn't play nice, or linger in the shadows... "If she pushes too hard Jacob I will come out publicly about us, not just our relationship, but our baby too. We'll spin it as star crossed lovers, finding out we were matched by your goddess. No one could say a word... It won't be how we hoped, it won't be how we planned, but if it's what I have to do? I'll do it in a heartbeat... Now I've said my peace, the floor my love, is all yours."

..she had helped him get re-dressed.. or well straightened up as best he could.. he was a little bruised.. and was missing more than a couple of buttons.. she'd done quite a number on him..he couldn't have been happier for it though.. this was just what he needed.. she had sated the beast that was gnawing at his soul.. a smile appeared upon the corners of his lips when she pressed her sweet little kiss.. telling him she winged it.. but that she was perhaps a little afraid that she had hurt him.. he shook his head-.. not at all.. I promise.. -something they would have to discuss and soon.. the likelihood of needing safe words.. and no-go zones.. what their limits were etc..

they moved back out into the corridor.. he educated her just a little on what this streak of exhibitionism she seemed to hold meant and just how much he looked forward to exploring it with her.. he was an Arvandorian at heart.. they were all exhibitionists of some sort.. the place was a voyeurs dream.. entering the room then Faelon stepped in.. something was about to happen and the good Doctor knew a way to handle it swiftly.. she went down like a dream.. picking it up without question ..he caught her easily.. the gasps and crowd settled around them as Faelon did his best to put on the Doctor facade.. and in a matter of a moment.. with a short interruption from a certain Dr Grace.. they were out.. and away..

the clutches of the rumour mongers would have nothing on them.. their reason for leaving was completely legit.. the carriage doors were drawn closed and the pair of them were alone. no eyes.. no listening.. nothing.. he nodded a little and chuckled perhaps a touch awkwardly when she said that Elizabeth was on him like crabs on a dockside whore-.. She can be pretty full on yes, she's always been like that.. or.. well she was when I knew her.. clearly that hasn't changed even with age.. -she settled down atop his lap there.. his arms came down to rest about her.. holding her .. the pair of them looking up into each others eyes.. he wanted to talk to her.. and he explained as much.. he wanted to lay it all out onto the table.. no secrets.. just honesty.. even if it was raw and hard to deal with..

he just hoped she wouldn't deny him the chance.. when she had all right to do so after the way this evening played out.. his shoulders sagged a little when she agreed.. -.. I will.. I will tell you everything.. I promise.. I just feel it needs to all come out.. -he reached up brushing his fingers across her cheeks.. catching a few wayward locks that had managed to find their freedom in their earlier little.. play session.. sliding them back behind her ears-.. and you can ask me anything.. I am but an open book for you.. I need you in my life.. You're the other half that I have been waiting for.. that I have been longing for.. and it feels like its been forever..but I'm finally home..

-he leant up a little.. brushing his lips to hers in a delicate kiss.. before the carriage would come to a slow stop.. there was a rapping against the door..he helped her off his lap there as he stepped out into the awaiting grasp of the pure dark evening.. it wasn't cold.. it wasn't warm.. it was just so very still.. perfect.. he took her hand as she stepped down .. and the carriage would ride back down the path.. he wanted for them to be left alone for this.. and he knew he could trust the drivers.. they wouldn't breathe a word to anyone.. she had set this up beautifully.. the blankets and pillows.. the cushions and wine.. what more did they need other than magnificent conversation.. and it was going to get deep.. he would go to speak.. only to have her stop him.. he nodded..

ushering her to continue as she undid his tie.. his jacket was slid from his shoulders.. he tilted his head.. wondering what she was up to before she asked of him to trust her-.. Always.. -he spoke in a quiet response...reaching up then to peel back his shirt.. watching as she removed her dress.. the panties following soon after.. leaving her bare.. he undid the belt then.. drawing those slacks of his down.. his boots.. everything it was all removed.. before he nestled in there beside her.. beneath that blanket.. the pair of them bare to the world.. open and vulnerable.. but strong in each others arms.. she told him she wanted to speak first.. -.. Ok. of course.. -he nodded.. looking to her there as his head rested down upon one of those cushions.. he told her enough to let him know that if Elizabeth was going to cause trouble that she was going to go to bat for him.. she was going to push back harder if required..

that this beautiful blonde elf was more than prepared to go to war if necessary.. for the sake of their relationship.. and their child.. he rubbed his lips together and nodded.. taking a breath-.. I sincerely hope it does not come to that.. really.. I hope Elizabeth settled back on her heels and calms down.. I am not stupid of course.. I understand and can see that this woman clearly has her sights set on me.. Faelon can see it.. You can see it.. and I know you've spoken to my parents about it.. so I'm sure they filled you in a little about it.. -he exhaled... sitting up a little then.. -.. I dont want you getting hurt though.. You have to promise me this.. if it gets nasty.. if it gets dangerous.. and Your life.. or the life of our child is in jeopardy.. you pull back please.. I dont expect it to naturally.. but.. I could and would never.. Ever forgive myself if anything happened to you..

-he was all but pleading with her to stay safe.. - Whilst you may find the idea of going public here on the surface enchanting if you will.. it comes with risks.. Surface dwellers dont understand the Matching system of Hanali.. it will sound like a fairy tale to them.. -he didn't want to shoot her idea down.. not at all.. its just that it would probably cause her more grief then she might have originally realised-.. but we will figure something out if it comes to that.. As long as you and our child are safe.. everything else comes secondary.. -and he meant that.. including his job.. his position.. it all came second to her.. -.. I met Elizabeth when I was still quite young.. so in.. -he rubbed his cheek a little-.. surface years.. I would have been about.. 16 or 17 years old.. she was one of my tutors.. She was a beautiful lady, strong.. well liked.. she commanded the classroom with an iron fist almost.. no one dared to cross her.. I remember the guys in the class used to check her out.. she was.. well..you know..

-he waved his hand a bit.. Elizabeth was pretty hot for an older teacher.. and young boys with hormones flying off the charts.. well.. it was a pretty potent mixture.. -.. I was late handing in an assignment, it was pretty important..I took my school work incredibly seriously.. its probably why I didn't have a lot of friends before I met Faelon.. everyone else liked to fuck around.. and well.. I preferred the books company over others..I came to the College later that night and found her.. She had stayed behind to wait for me.. which at the time I thought was incredibly helpful.. but she was upset.. like.. really very upset.. she was crying.. and angry.. like she had thrown everything off her desk.. -his head settled back upon the pillow once more.. looking up at the hole in the ceiling.. the stars twinkling brightly-..

I went to her immediately.. terrified for her.. was she hurt?.. or?.. but no.. it was her Husband.. he had died.. earlier on in the week but she had kept it private.. we talked for hours.. just about.. nothing.. she kissed me.. it took me by surprise.. Id never been kissed.. like id said.. books were my companions regardless of who my parents were -he chuckled a little-.. she apologised.. and begged me not to tell anyone.. made me promise.. that she was in a position of power there and it was against Arvandorian laws along with practically everywhere else.. but it stirred something in me.. I wont deny it.. and I kissed her back.. told her i wouldn't tell a soul.. it became a regular thing.. I would meet her after class.. late in the evening.. she took well.. practically every first that could be taken from a Woman..

-his brows furrowed he was getting uncomfortable the further they went in-.. There was a seminar.. much like the one we had here.. and since I was at the top of the class I was to go along with Elizabeth..the beginnings of being a Student Doctor..It was where I met Faelon.. he was a student Doctor under another.. Elizabeth took me to one of the clubs there.. it was decked out like a dungeon.. everyone was in their respective characters.. Id read about it.. found it intriguing.. but that was where my education stopped.. She seemed to know quite a few of the people there and in hindsight that probably should have rang alarm bells.. but teenage Jacob was infatuated with her.. she disappeared for a while.. and then was called to the stage.. a circular area that was surrounded by chairs.. she came out dressed differently.. leather.. vinyl .. she pulled me onto the stage.. and that was my first taste of submission.. and I fell hard.. it was lke the itch that had been niggling in the background had finally been scratched.. the freedom felt in that moment was incredible..

I learnt a lot under her.. she trained me for years.. I practically moved in with her after that.. I ignored everyone.. it was just her.. and my studies.. Faelon tried to contact me a few times.. as we had similar interests.. but it kind of fell on deaf ears.. I look back on it now and I wonder how I got so caught up in it all.. like I understand the science behind infatuation and even obsession.. but.. youd sware I was hypnotised or something.. but.. no I dont remember that.. -he glanced across to her there-.. I was with her for 6 years.. quietly.. behind the scenes.. a lot of clubs.. there was a dungeon in her home where I stayed.. a cage where I slept.. she looked after me.. I was fed and cared for.. but in return for that I was in full submission for.. 6 years.. now when I say Im a switch.. that kind of thing breaks a person.. a switch cant be a bottom for that length of time.. not without it affecting them.. and I used to break every now and then.. and the dominant side of me would shine through..

I would take control.. and I physically hurt her on a few occasions when she was not expecting it..which lead me to be punished.. -he turned his back to her there.. -.. Youve seen my ink yes.. I know you have.. how it goes up along my arms and the tops of the back of my shoulders.. but.. touch it.. -he urged her.. and if she did.. she'd feel the scarring the black ink disguised.. lash marks.. some deeper than others.. they were long healed and only visible when felt.. his artist.. Garafin had done an incredibly good job at playing with shadows to make sure it couldn't be seen..-..

I tried hard to keep my dominant side down.. to keep it under wraps.. when i felt it starting to surface I would try and stay in the cage.. which..well.. that mucked with my head even more -he exhaled-.. though.. I dont know.. and I still dont understand it to this day.. but.. I woke up one day.. 6 years in.. -he paused.. starting to just stare out through that open hole in the room..he lifted his hands up as if he was inspecting them-. my hands were covered in blood.. -his voice lowered a little-.. and there was a body.. of a man on the floor beside the bed.. I dont know what happened.. I have no memory of the event.. -his voice wavered a little then.. as if it were shaking-.. I think I killed someone Rose.. -he turned to look to her then.. -

God help them and safewords... But it was a great idea, and one they really did need to talk about, even if she wasn't sure how she'd handle it. After all, she was just now stretching into it, and she was hesitant... Uncertain and nervous. But if she was going to get over that, they had to have a safe word, something he could say if she did push it too far, so she would know when she had actually hurt him versus given him just what he needed. Of course, all this would occur in good time, and she had time to learn too... To adjust and go with it as they needed... She smiled quite happily when he said she hadn't hurt him and the two headed out before she put on a faint that would have made Shakespeare proud, and within a few minutes after that they were out, gone like the wind in the carriage and on their way...

They mentioned Elizabeth, how it was turning around to sort of backfire, and in a very large way... Calling Elizabeth a bad case of the crabs and yes, she could hear the awkwardness in the laugh, a pause of her own... "Sorry... Sometimes my vernacular is pretty colorful, the girls upstairs could make a sailor blush and when I'm mad... Well it sort of slips out..." She didn't mean to embarrass him, it was just something she picked up, a habit she couldn't really shake. Not yet at least... He asked for the chance to explain everything to her, and while she was still mad at him for what he had done earlier in the night, she wasn't going to be petty. He needed to talk, to get everything off of his chest, and she was going to be there. To do that with him, for them, for a better chance at tomorrow...

Though to be fair? He had pulled the rug out under her, wrapped her up in a fairy tale, came in like prince charming on a white horse... Her earlier hurt just sort of melted away like snow under a warm sun, feeling his fingers across her cheeks, tucking her lose strands of hair behind her ears... The way he said he needed her in his life, that she was the other half he'd been waiting for, that he finally felt... Like he had come home... She just went to butter in his lap... "Oh, Jacob..." She sighed and returned that kiss, soft and sweet, as tender as a sugar drop... The arrival at the Cathedral was smooth and easy, and she trusted the drivers with him, and why not? If one of them was caught out spreading tales? He'd never work again in the city. It was a career choice that depended upon secrecy... She was glad she had prepped everything beforehand, the area was beautiful, set on a pad of soft grass and flowers... Fireflies flitting about them like their own candles in gold and green, the sounds of small tree frogs and the scurry of fox pads on the stones... It was a beautiful spot, her favorite in the whole town, it was just everything she ever dreamed a place could be.

It was a small request a moment later but she had them out of their clothes, the trappings of that party, the higher echelon of society... She wanted them to be open and true, skin to skin, equally vulnerable in this situation... Naked together under the blanket as they curled in together, the air was cool and still, just enough to make the comfortable warmth of each others body and the blanket utterly lush... Pouring them each a glass of wine she asked for a chance to talk, she had something to say too, something she needed to get out before he told her anything... So he knew where she stood, what she would do, what she planned on doing... "They filled me in more than a little... They missed you so much Jacob, they were scared for you, but they respected your wishes. I won't. Not in this, they're your parents but I'm your lover, your friend... I have no reason to give you space and I don't plan on it." She wasn't going to wait by and hope he came to his senses, a passive party in their relationship, leaning on fairy tales and hopes to get her through. No way, that wasn't her, she wasn't that type of person and never would be. She wanted this to work? Then she was going to fight for it, and she'd fight even if he couldn't, she'd come out of this swinging and victorious. She leaned back a touch as he sat up, her hand over his heart, feeling his breathing... The way he was asking her to back out if things got bad... "The fact you think it could get that bad? Only goes to show that you know how bad Elizabeth is... She won't stop till she has you under her boot..." Hell, she didn't think Grace would stop even then, not till she had him broken and bloodied under her thumb like a bully with an ant. Though a moment later... "I promise I'll back out if it gets that bad... I won't let anything happen to our baby." She'd been poisoned once, she wouldn't put it past someone to take a second swing at it, so she'd have to start making some major changed... Look out a lot closer than she had been in the past.

It was his turn to speak then as he filled her in on his past, the part that evolved around Grace, her part in his life... And the more he talked? The more her heart ached... Elizabeth had used her sexual allur to wrap these young men around her fingers, she didn't even think about their age, about how young he was... How impressionable... She didn't interrupt though, she made herself stay quiet, to listen... Just running her fingers through his hair soothingly, trying to help calm him, to ground him so he didn't feel the pain of the past too sharply... Still, the more she listened, the more it seemed like everything Grace had done? Was entirely calculated, like she had this plan set for years, or perhaps... She had used the same one FOR years? Either way, she didn't think any of this was accidental, everything just... Lined up too perfect... Like Grace specifically took the younger males, the impressionable and the hormonally imbalanced, knowing their youth made them entirely pliable... Especially if sex was involved...

Which was apparently what had happened, hearing Jacob confess that every single thing that could have been taken, was taken from him. There had been nothing precious or sacred to Grace, she hadn't thought about how wrong it was, only about how good it felt to her... She leaned in for a moment to kiss his temple, wrapping her arms around him a bit tighter, supporting him. "It's ok... I'm here..." It was just a soft whisper against his ear but she hoped it was enough to know she wasn't running... She was listening, without judgment of him, open to everything he was saying... Vetting the weight on his soul... The more he went along the angrier she was at Grace, the more her heart broke for him, how he had suffered so much pain... How could anyone ignore his needs like that? Grace didn't even care about him, he was just a tool to her own means, her own pleasures and wants... Then to hear she had taken him to a club, a club for certain roles, her familiarity with it all... It definitely helped cement the feeling, the belief Jacob wasn't the first, or hell even the only one right now. Who knew how many other young men she had? Maybe even now there was a poor young elf she had torn apart? Ripped away from his family because Grace decided she wanted to play at a younger woman?

Though when he said she had locked him up in a cage like an animal? She visibly twitched, a flash of incredible anger scorched through her golden hued eyes like fire, and oh... If Grace had been there in that moment? She'd be spread among the plants like a protein rich compost... She had to close her eyes, grit her teeth and breathe deep, count backwards from one hundred... She didn't blame him once for snapping, anyone would have cracked under that sort of abuse, even if it is your cup of tea so to speak. She? Was glad he hurt her, she was only sorry he didn't do more to her, like put her in a full body cast for fifty years... Watching as he turned over, talking about his tattoos, oh yes... She knew about them, how many times had she raked her nails over his skin in pleasure, when he had her strung out so tight she snapped? But when she ran her fingertips over them, that was when she caught it, those subtle raises... She hadn't touched him outside of a sexual way like this, not because she didn't want to, rather it was just... Their alone time together was so few and fleeting it was always packed with love making and whispered words...

"That's it, I'm going to kill that bitch. You're mom's going to have to deal with leftovers." She growled even though her touch was soft, pressing the gentlest of kisses over each scarp before wrapping her arms around him again, pulling him in close... Wrapping him in her love and her warmth... She let him get it out, all of it, and when he got to that part.... To his confession... The confusion and fear that he must still feel... "Even if you killed a hundred people Jacob I'd still love you. I'm not afraid." She said, shaking her head as she pulled him in close, wrapping her arms around him a bit tighter... Resting his head over her heart so he could hear the beating of it... "Grace isn't normal... There is something very, very wrong with her, and I've felt that since the very start of meeting her... She's rotten... Did you ever think Magic might be involved? She's an elf, just like you or I, so it wouldn't be hard to imagine she was keeping you under a spell maybe? Or some sort of sorcery, surely? So much of what you said sounds like abuse of the rawest forms... Anyone would have left a hundred times before six years passed... There's no way you stayed of your own volition..." Those were her thoughts on it anyways... But she knew that he felt horrible for it, the fear that blood was literally on his hands, that he had committed murder. She took his hands and laced them with hers... "I killed the Janitor..." She whispered softly in the dark silence that hung between them for a moment... "I told you... We didn't know what had happened, only that he turned up dead, but... I didn't want you to look at me like I was a monster..." A few people knew she had done it, but no one had said anything about it, as far as they were concerned? It was a completely justified murder, and more than that, it had been a damned near act of community service... "After Mary died he came after me again, harder than he ever had before, he had me in the kitchen... I remember him trying to drown me in the sink so I couldn't scream while he tried to rape me and I reached for the butcher knife on the counter and I stabbed him... And I didn't stop... I just kept going and going until the Matron came down and saw me... She pulled me off and dragged me to the bath and got rid of the body..." That body had been seriously dessicated, she had stabbed him well over twenty times, a feat for such a small child but she had been driven by something else... Another force inside herself that waited for danger and violence to be unleashed, to rip and tear and kill, loving the sweet copper tang of blood and the music of screaming... "You don't know if you actually killed him... You could have been trying to save him when you came to but you wouldn't be able to know that... But me? I killed someone and I know I did, I did it with full intent and even now, I don't regret it... I'd kill him again a hundred times over for what he did and never once would I feel bad about it."

Though she wouldn't confess that a part of her had liked it, she'd gone into a sort of frenzy, screaming and stabbing with a devils grin on her face... Even after she had calmed down and gotten cleaned up, everything handled and taken care of, she still hadn't felt remorse... Only an understanding of what she had done. She hoped that with him knowing this about her? It might help him find a little more solace in himself and things in his past... If not? Well she had tried, hadn't she? "There are worst things than killing someone, even if it might sound insane, it's true. Death is final and finite, it happens in a flash and it's over, I should know... But what you went through? Was so much worse than death. You were treated like an animal, all your rights as a person, she took them for you... She made you into little more than a beast for her own amusement and pleasure. That? Is so much worse than killing you, you have to live with the memories of what she did to you, with the pain of every deed she enacted on you. She abused you in every way a person can, she stole your innocence, she warped you... Broke you... She took... Everything... Everything from you Jacob..." Shaking her head she have him a hug, bringing her knees up a bit so he was wrapped up in her body, in her embrace. "If you did kill someone I know it wasn't out of your own will or violation... I know she made you do it and I'm going to find out, I'm going to break her, I'm going to destroy her world... I'll take it all from her Jacob, rip her down to nothing and make her wish she had died, that I'd killed her... Make her live with the monster she is without all the glitter and trappings of the costumes she dresses up in." It was a promise too, she was going to drag out every skeleton in Grace's closet, she would laid it all bare in the most public and humiliating fashion a person can... She was going to utterly destroy her and oh... She looked forward to the end result. Who knows how many other young men she might be able to free because of it? How many poor souls trapped in her web? How many men she might save from being killed as she wanted to use them for their money to line her vile nest?
