The Serpents Grotto

A lengthy one shot I did for my friend Daluna of her OC and Gadalar. Original story concept came from my good friend Infinity-Moon over at deviantArt (http://infinity-moon.deviantart.com) She had been working on a wonderful fanfic for Daluna and she let me use some of her ideas to write a sort of side story.

Hard Rain

The cool breeze of December chilled the air through the deep forest of the Sanctuary of Zi’Tah. As mist rises from the forest floor and dew drips silently from the trees and vines to the forest floor, a young woman steps with grace across the off beaten path. As she moved from dirt to moss she felt it give softly beneath her feet. ‘Yes’ she thought to herself. ‘The angle. The clearance…’ She pulled an arrow from the quiver latched to her back and readied it on her long bow. ‘…and the moss beneath my feet makes for a perfect silencer for my footsteps. Yes, This is a perfect place to calculate the perfect shot’  She moved forward quietly first three steps and to the left four steps.  She then kneeled to the ground looking at her target: A Coeurl. It stood at a puddle of water taking a cool morning drink unaware of the danger to come. ‘Angle up fifteen degrees…To the right thirty degrees and…’

The girl drew her bow nocking it in place. ‘Perfect!’  She focused taking in the silence around her. Then it happened. Something touched her shoulder. She jolted and yelped as she released her bow prematurely and falling backwards. The Coeurl then proceeded to speed off and dash far away alarmed by her presence. As she fell back onto the moist and soft moss below she heard a voice above her “Geeze you’re clumsy, Diana. What the hell are you doing? You could have killed me!” The voice was a familiar scowling one. As the girl now identified as Diana opened her eyes she saw exactly who she thought she would. “YOU!” She yelled at the man above her.  She quickly rolled over and regained her composure on her feet brushing herself off. The Hume turned his body slightly away from her his arms crossed. He wore a black cloak and standard slops. He grinned at her with his usual smart attitude “Yes?” This man was sometimes impossible. Diana grunted in frustration as she pointed her finger at him “Don’t you ‘Yes?’ me you idiot. You know exactly what you did! It’s your fault I missed! Now we may not have anything to eat later. Are you stupid or something, Gadalar?!” She huffed out the last of her sentence blowing a stray piece of hair from her face. Her usually strait raven black hair was disheveled greatly and covered with small bits of forest debris. Her face was fuming.

Gadalar turned to her laughing a loud. “You have bits of moss and twigs in your hair by the way…” He stopped a moment pointing at the top of her head. “Is that a spider?” He said flatly. Diana’s eyes widened as her left eye twitched “You’re impossible!” She grabbed her bow and knocked him fiercely across the head with it sending Gadalar down on his knees as he looked back at her holding his head. “Jesus, Diana!  Really? Do you always have to hit me across the head?” He hissed in pain as he spoke. It was her turn to laugh “Would you rather I try elsewhere?” she pointed down to him with her bow grinning sheepishly. The brunette Hume sighed as he glared up at the woman. With that said he gave up. In the distance thunder cracked and rain drops slowly began to fall within the forest. “Great!” Diana said throwing up her hands. “Now I’ll have no time to hunt before dark.”  A shot of lightning struck through the forest nearby as the day started to become darkened with clouds.  Gadalar looked up to the trees canopy a moment before standing. “With that aside we need to find shelter before the storm gets too bad.”  He looked over at the raven haired girl and she stared back nodding. He was right. Even though she was still furious with him she agreed whole heartedly and gathered her things clasping her bow to her back.

Standing next to Gadalar ready, Diana sighed as she spoke. She tried her best to put on a smile “Well, let’s go.” She headed off in front of him. Gadalar cocked his head to the side as she walked by. “Okay…?” He quickly jogged up next to her as the rain started to poor more steadily. As he walked in stride with her he began thinking how long he had been travelling with this girl. Even more important just how long had they known each other? Almost his whole life? Although, a large portion of their life was lived separate, now the fates had brought them back together again. Gadalar became lost in thought as the rain poured even harder against his skin and the forest grew darker around them. “Gadalar?…Gadalar!” He snapped out of it as he heard Diana’s voice. He looked over at her. “Gadalar, we need to find some shelter. I have no idea where we are. It’s getting dark. I’m soaked! You’re soaked! Aren’t you paying any attention you fool? ” She slicked her wet hair back in frustration. Gadalar’s eye twitched. ‘What was her problem?‘  He thought to himself. It was always his fault when things got nasty. Was it just easier to blame him? He growled under his breath as they continued forward. “What, so this is my fault we’re lost?” He spat at her quickly. She turned to him yanking on his hood. “Listen here mister. Had you not interrupted my shot back there we wouldn’t be in this mess!” She glared at him as if she could kill him. 

As Gadalar fiercely tried to escape her clutches he spins around loosening her grip on his hood. As he does this she stumbles back slightly the weight of the water on her cloths taking a toll as the front of her Denali body piece. It lowered down revealing the pink areola of her breast. Gadalar saw this for a moment as she readjusted. He blushed lightly as he swallowed hard and turned around. He began walking forward as he tried to pretend as if he hadn’t seen anything at all. “You weren’t looking were you?”  Diana yelled to him. “Of course not. I don’t have time for such things” he said in his usual scowling voice as he walked on. Diana followed in suit behind him “You liar. You looked didn’t you!?” She said quickly back at him. Gadalar hunched his shoulders in frustration. ‘Look, you can believe what you want. If you get a kick off of it then sure I looked. If not then I didn’t. End of story.” He continued forward trying to ignore her complaints. He didn’t have time for this. The storm was getting worse and they needed shelter. This could wait ‘til then. Luckily in the distance there was a building and it looked like a cabin. They were close maybe 100 yalms if not closer.

Diana continued to walk behind him as he moved forwards, her complaints met with deaf ears as Gadalar stopped in front of the cabin. If he had aggravated her so much why did she insist on following him? Did she get a jolly from it? Or did she just have a sick sense of humor? As he shook his head and came back into reality he looked at the quaint cabin. This is where they would stay for the night. Then suddenly he heard her. “Gadalar! Have you been listening to a single word I’ve said?!”  That was it he couldn’t take it anymore. His sapphire eyes turned to her Onyx orbs with a fiery passion and frustration as he grabbed her by the shoulders. “What Diana!? What do you want from me!? Would you like me to make all my flaws and imperfections disappear? Would you like for me to leave? I’m not quite sure what you want but I have had enough of your banter, woman!” He looked at her fiercely as he tightened his grip on her. He had no intentions of releasing her ‘til he got an answer. Diana’s eyes widened as she heard him spoke. She panicked in frustration “No, I just want you to listen to me!” She struggle against his strength. He very well may have been a Black Mage but he was built from wielding his scythe in the heat of battle. “Listen to what, Diana? How much I screw up or aggravate you? You know, I haven’t been able to quite figure you out. There is no way you hang around me because you get a quick jolly off of barking at me. I want the truth Diana and I want it now. We were once friends. We still are but ever since our paths crossed once more after almost fifteen years you’ve done nothing but complain about me. Why!? Tell me!?” He shook her once to tell her he meant business.

Diana panicked again searching for answers. She tried her best to put up a front. She really didn’t know why she yelled at him so much. A part of her seemed to feel angry with him constantly but she didn’t know why. She said the first thing that came to her mind “You never listen to me! I try to keep you out of trouble and from doing stupid things but you don’t listen. Every time I make a suggestion I  get my idea turned down almost immediately. You prefer to take the dangerous route. If something were to-“ As she struggle to loosen his grip on her shoulders she was cut off mid sentence when she felt a pair of lips press roughly against her own. Her eyes widened as she watched Gadalar kiss her. What was he doing? She tried to fight him but in doing so only angered him more. He held her tightly as he kissed her as if releasing all his woes and frustration against her.  Diana quickly managed to sneak out of his grip thanks to the rain loosening his grip on her. Gadalar growled under his breath. Why had she refused him? He understood now why she proceeded to aggravate him so. She was only trying to protect him. She feared losing him. Diana walked towards the cabin hurriedly, the rain falling just as hard as before. Gadalar hastily followed behind as he grabbed her by the sleeve and pinned her body against the outside of the cabin wall slamming his hands on either side of her head “Diana!” His breath heavy and hair sopping wet from the rain he peered deep into her eyes with his brilliant blues. “Don’t run away from me Diana. I know very well why you do the things you do now. And I think you do to. I think you are frightened to admit it. Don’t run away from me Diana. Don’t lie to yourself. ”

With that he closed his eyes and leaned in stealing another kiss from her soft lips. This time he kissed further as he breached her lips with his tongue. Diana struggled at first but before long she found herself lost in the thoughts of what the man in front of her just said ‘Don’t lie to yourself’ She finally realized what he had meant and if he was acting like this that meant that he too…. Her thought trailed off as she finally gave in as she slowly moved her hands up to Gadalar’s that lay on both side beside her head. As she did so he took her hands in his and griped them tightly as he raised them above her head. He then proceeded to push his body heavily against hers, their bodies sopping wet from the rain. He sighed against her lips as he twined her fingers in his and began sucking at her tongue. Diana moaned against his lips and reacted with a fluid motion of her hips against his own. The rain had only heightened the friction between their bodies as she did so and Gadalar parted their kiss only momentarily as he suckled on her lower lip. Oh how he always loved those beautiful and luscious red lips and now they were his for the taking and his alone.

The raven hair woman gasped aloud her breathing heavy as she arched her neck back. Taking this to his advantage he dove into her neck suckling on her flesh. Diana let out a moan calling his name “Gadalar…” When he heard her call his name for the first time like that he felt a shiver run down his spine and he stopped the kiss as he instead trailed his tongue up her neck and to her earlobe and then back to her lips. As he did so he loosened his grip on her right hand and lowered his hand to her shoulder and then to her bare chest and down to her breast. He quickly pulled her Denali top down slightly as he gripped her breast within his firm and strong hands. As he pushed her against the wall once again he kissed her with earnest. Diana jumped at first. The rain had really enhanced the feeling between their bodies and she loved it. But two could play this game. As she probed his mouth with her own tongue she trailed her free hand down to his Seraweels and rests her hand against the front of them. She felt his length beneath the thin layer of cloth-hot, wanting and needing. She quickly and firmly grasped him through the thin layer of clothing and heard him let out soft moan. Gadalar stopped his kiss and brought his face deathly close to hers, their lips just a hairs breathe a part. “Are you sure you want to do that?” He smirked at her his eyes half lidded as he bit down lightly at her bottom lip again. The raven haired woman in turn smiled as she lustfully licked her lips and looked deeply into those sapphire orbs. She yanked him somewhat roughly as her eyes never left his. Gadalar laughed under his breath as that cynical smile appeared on his face. With that, he quickly grabbed her by the hips and hoisted her over his shoulders giving her rear a feisty slap as he reached for the cabins door. Diana winced at this but couldn’t help but laugh at the situation as Gadalar opened the cabin door and walked inside.

As Gadalar entered the cabin with Diana on his shoulders, he closed the door quickly behind him. His eyes darted around the dark room ‘til he spotted what he had been searching for. A hearth. His heart still raced within his chest and his body still was in a state of euphoria. He needed to light that fire fast. They may be getting warm here pretty soon with the two of them together but that wouldn’t be enough. He went with a great amount of haste over to the hearth as he held out his hand in a cupping motion as he formed a flame at his whim and tossed it to the logs in the hearth. The fire started slowly at first. He grumbled and swore under his breath in frustration. Instant gratification was not fast enough. Meanwhile, Diana giggled as she reached down and squeezed his firm glutes in her lithe fingers. She was quite enjoying his behavior. She found it childish but somewhat charming. Gadalar bit his lower lip hard as his eyes rolled up slightly. He looked to the fire with rage as his right eye twitched. He quickly tossed a fiercer spell this time that almost lit up the whole room. “Burn damn it!” he yelled as he stood there, his brow sweating. The flames spurted outside of the hearth momentarily until it died down just enough to where it roared steadily and lit the room with a soft ambiance.

Diana laughed aloud but was quickly cut short as Gadalar hoisted her back down. He carefully but quickly laid her onto the nearest surface which was an oak table. He leaned over her taking a tuff of her jet black hair in his fist. “I wouldn’t be laughing if I were you…” His face curled into a vicious smile as he yanked it just hard enough to show he meant business. Diana looked back at him with her eyes narrowed with a slight bit of pain. Yeah, it had hurt slightly but she didn’t mind it in the least. In fact it made the fire within her body spread even more so. Gadalar leaned back in for another passionate kiss as he still held her hair tightly within his grip. As he did so, Diana responded with cool but soft fingers that slipped beneath his soaked black cloak. She slowly pushed beneath the wet and baggy material and ran her gentle fingers across his abdominals paying close attention to each crevice she came across as she trailed upwards. Gadalar sighed against her lips as he felt those cool and gentle fingers play across his chest. A part of him just wanted to rip into her and yet another part wanted to take it slow…Well, a little.

As the fire roared behind them now Gadalar freed his hands from her hair and ran them down her bare shoulder until he reached her soaked Denali top.  Never breaking their kiss he curls his fingers beneath the wet fabric and then ran his lips down to her neck where he lapped at it with his tongue for only a moment before rolling her top down below her breast. Feeling her breasts exposed to the elements, Diana gasped as a chill passed across her. Her breasts quickly perked up from the chill of the air. She sighed softly and quickly removes her hands from Gadalar’s chest and to his sleeves of his cloak. She gripped them firmly, her knuckled turning white. The brunette leaned over her and laughed under his breath.  He moved from her neck leaving a small trail of saliva as he engulfed her right breast within his mouth. He could have stayed there all day as he slowly lapped his tongue around and suckled at it. He played at first only sucking at her areola and completely ignoring her erect bud. It was as if he was teasing her and making her wait- as if he was waiting for something. Diana’s breath caught in her throat as Gadalar brought her breast to his mouth. The raven haired woman jumped. It was amazing. Her heart beat loudly in her chest as she felt her loins burning with an intense heat she had never experienced. Not like this at least. “Gadalar…what are you doing..?” Her eyes were narrowed in that look of pleasure that easily could have been mistaken for pain. As if it were unbearable.

He didn’t answer. Instead, Gadalar brought his hand up to her left breast and gave it a squeeze before running his index finger around her other erect rosebud. Diana closed one eye as she moaned “Please…Gadalar…” She spoke meekly. Gadalar smirked as he muffled under his breath. “What was that..? I can’t hear you..” Ah, yes. He would make her beg for what she wanted. He bit his teeth down softly on her skin. The women yelped “Please, Gadalar. I want to feel you play with my tits.” Gadalar smiled as his he quickly flickered his tongue across her erect pink rosebud. With his right hand he slid his index finger in circles on her other matching bud. Diana arched her back forward letting out a sigh as her grip tightened even further on his cloak. Her mind began to race. It felt as if her body had become alit with flames that Gadalar had placed upon her skin. She began to squirm fiercely beneath him as the Hume stayed at her breasts. She tried to escape his grasp as the pleasure became incredibly unbearable; Her loins burning hotter than before. It was becoming quite uncomfortable. “Stop it! Please!” She begged. Gadalar refused to stop. Nothing could at this point.  As she squirmed more violently he became flustered. He raised his head above her as he forcefully grabbed both of her wrists with one hand and slamming them onto the table beneath her and above her head. It was simple for him. He grinned cynically, his eyes burned with a primal passion. He just had to have her and make her his. No one else would be allowed to have her. After this day she would never belong to anyone but him. He would be the first to take her and the last to have her.

As he stared down at her, he growled beneath his breath as if he were a beast and slowly spoke to the woman under him “Fine! We’ll do things the hard way won’t we?” He released her wrist only for a moment as he removed his black cloak and tossed it aside in a sloppy mess on the floor. He then grabbed at Diana’s short like Cobra Trousers as he lifted her legs up. Diana fought with him again. “Stubborn girl!” He gripped her ankles tightly and yanked them off quickly along with her boots. He then proceeded to her thighs. As he gripped them tightly in his palms he spread them open to take in the sight of her. Diana blushed fiercely as she tried to look away in embarrassment but her eyes were lead back to the washboard stomach in front of her. Parts were marred and blemished with scars but somehow she found it incredibly attractive. Beads of sweat and water mingled and glisten across his skin in the soft light of the fire. To her, he almost looked god like. As if Mars, the god of war stood before her in that very room.  She sighed as she watched him inspect her most private areas. As he did so, she felt her own hand creep down her side and up to her own breast as she began toying with it. Gadalar got down on his knees in front of her and laid both hands on her center, spreading her lips widely. He sighed heavily “Just beautiful” he said breathlessly as he quickly moved his head forward boldly and lapped gently at the single rosebud found at her center. Diana’s eyes widened as her legs jolted. She moaned loudly as she continued massaging her own breast as she sat up just enough to watch him, her face washed over in pleasure.

The Flameserpent himself had never before tasted anything so exquisite before in his life. He continued there as he released one of her thighs and raised his left hand as he inserted his index finger slowly into her womb. It was moist and warm. He shivered at the feeling and continued with two fingers as he explored her, his lips never leaving their original position. “Gadalar…Ah…” As Diana spoke in breaths she began tweaking at her own pink and pert rosebuds above. Her face was laden with a heavy blush.  As she felt Gadalar continue, she began to feel moisture run down her leg. It was embarrassing but at the same time it felt amazing. She wanted him bad. She wanted him deep within her, body and soul.  Gadalar removed his finger and looked up at Diana as he licked them clean within his mouth,  a roughish smirk upon his face. “ I think I’ll have another quick taste.” This time he ran his tongue across her inner thigh lapping up the fine wine that she has produced just for him and no one else. He wouldn’t waist a single drop. When he finished at her thighs he made a quick lap from the bottom of her center and up to the single rosebud below. Diana gasped as she saw a trail of saliva and moisture bridges itself between Gadalar’s lips and her own body. She breathed heavily as she sat up on her elbows. “I…I can’t take it anymore…” She said in ragged breaths.

The Flameserpent General raised to his feet once more smiling down at her ever so sweetly. He raised an eyebrow at her. “What is it you want dear girl?” He said to her as if almost taunting her. He wanted to hear it from her. To hear that she wanted him and only him. Gadalar inspected her whole body. Her skin was flawless save for the scar at her side. He really could have cared less if she had been terribly scarred. She was his Diana and he accepted her in any form.  As he looked at the woman’s sweat covered body he didn’t hear a response. A smug look crossed his face as he quickly unlatched his Yigit Seraweels and let them drop to his knees revealing his engorged length. As he stood there watching over her hungrily, Diana only sat there and watched as the Hume’s length throbbed in front of her. She didn’t know what to say. She was impressed but also shy. She knew that Gadalar being a General probably had many experiences with women. They meant nothing to him of course but he had experience none the less.  Spreading her thighs again, Gadalar’s fingers pushed roughly into her skin. He spoke once more “Last chance. I won’t give any mercy after this until you tell me what it is you want.” His grin widened. The girl stayed silent as she looked up at him with wanting.

At her silence, Gadalar roughly spread her legs further and rubbed his hot throbbing length across her moist center. He felt like he could cry. Gadalar once again bit his lip and hissed “Fuck you’re wet….fuck…” He continued to rub up and down upon her, his grip tightening on her thighs. The force was more than enough to bruise her at this point. Diana’s mouth parted as she moaned repeatedly. Her whole body twitched below him. “Ah…Oh, please…please don’t do this….. just do it!” She said in frustration. Her face looked as if she were about to break down in tears. He leaned down as he continued to rock against her. Gadalar met her soft Onyx eyes and spoke “Tell me what you want Diana. It’s so simple. What is it you’d like to me to do Diana?” He quickly took a tuff of her raven hair in his hand again and yanked it more forcefully this time “What Diana!? What do you want!? Tell me!” His voice was loud and clear this time. Almost primal. Diana yelped and as he pulled back on her hair. She spoke “I want you to fuck me Gadalar!” Tears formed in the corners of her eyes as he pulled roughly on her hair.

Gadalar lets out a victorious snarl and quickly raises Diana’s legs to his shoulders “That’s more like it! I like a woman who knows what she wants! I don’t have time for games!” As he adjusted the weight of her legs on his shoulders he positioned himself at her entrance and filled her completely. There was no time to be gentle as he pushed forward. Diana’s face twisted in pleasure and pain as he entered her. Her hair sprawled behind her now Gadalar looked over her reaction as he entered deep within her. He groaned as he gave another deep thrust. He could tell that this was her first time. He was positive now. He slowly pulled out half way and pushed back in as he held her thighs in place. His eye narrowed as he looked down at her, his face scrunched up in an emotion mixed with frustration and joy “Gods you’re tight, Diana”. The raven haired women shivered beneath him as she gasped and moaned in shutters. “You’re…You’re….” She got cut off as Gadalar quickened his pace as he thrust deep within, hitting her most sensitive spot. “I’m what, Diana?! Say it!” Diana yelped and screamed and finally spoke “You’re so big! It fills me up so well as if it were meant just for me. I want more! Please give me more…!” Diana’s face was a deep shade of scarlet as she spoke.

Gadalar laughed aloud as he rested his left hand on her hip and used the right to bind both her wrists back behind her head. His body leaned forward as he began thrusting savagely into her. As she saw him looking down at her with piercing blue eyes filled with need and passion she quickly looked away in embarrassment. That would change quickly though as Gadalar snapped at her. “Don’t look away from me, woman! Eyes on me at all times!” He grinned cynically down at her “I order you to never look away from me while I fuck you.” His tone was serious but not laced with any malice. Diana quickly looked back up at him. She began sighing heavily beneath him. She felt herself on the edge of pleasure as he pushed further within her. The moisture between her legs never halted as Gadalar took her. She felt it against her thighs again and between her legs every time Gadalar reentered her. It only enhanced her pleasure as she yelled out in ecstasy, helpless beneath his clutches. She felt herself building closer and closer to her peak again but she wasn’t ready. She wanted more. She looked up at him her face full of lust. She spoke clearly to him. “Fuck me! Don’t show me any mercy! Show me why they call you the Flameserpent General!” Gadalar groaned as he heard her speak. “Ohoho, that’s what I wanted to hear from you, civilian!” He quickened his pace, the table moving beneath his powerful thrust. Diana’s faced twisted with pleasure as she smiled and asked for more.

Gadalar did his best to give her what she asked but he could see by the frustration in her face that this wasn’t working. Angry with the moving table beneath him he raised her up in his arms with one quick motion. Diana panicked at first but quickly wrapped her leg around his broad hips as he held her. With no hesitation Gadalar left the table and slammed Diana back against a wall. Gripping the bottom of her thighs to support her, he now had full control of how hard and deep he could hit her. He repositioned himself quickly as he laid his lips onto her neck and began thrusting upwards. He suckled and nipped at her neck as he roughly pushed her against the wall, her body moving up and down upon him. Diana though she may die if this kept up. Although, she didn’t quite find it fair though that he was in charge. Instead of just sitting there and taking it, she quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and began using the wall behind her to her advantage as she grinded her hips against him in a fluid motion. Gadalar stumbled at first as he felt her arch her spine forward and back again. She learned quickly. It was almost too much for him. Almost. As their sweat mingled together Diana once again felt herself building near her peak.  Gadalar could sense it too as he felt her moisture spread even further down his length and between his own thighs.

 Picking up his pace as he thrust her up and down against the wall, she yelled for more. He felt her slowly starting to twitch around him and it took everything he had to hold back from releasing as well. “Not yet you don’t…” He leaned forward taking her left breast into his mouth lapping and sucking at it with earnest. “Gad…” was all she said. Oh he had her so close. “Diana……say my name Diana. Let me hear it!” His thrusts became rougher and faster as Diana felt her back rub against the wall behind her. “More..! Oh, give me more!” She yelled. Gadalar spat at her. “Say my name you civilian woman! And say it like you mean it!” Diana felt something snap as his tone of voice seemed almost animalistic. As if it were a trigger in her oncoming climax. Without warning she clamped around him like a vice. “Oh Flameserpent General Gadalar…! Ah…Gadalar! I’m coming! “She felt her hips rock against him as she began twitching violently around him. Gadalar groaned loudly as if a vicious beast “That’s right! Tell me! Who’s fucking you civilian and what do you want from him!? That’s an order!” Diana’s face turned into a twisted smile as she spoke a loud. “General Gadalar! Oh yes! Please fill me with your warmth General Gadalar! All of it!” As Diana clamped around him one last time she dug her nails into his back roughly. As he felt this, Gadalar felt himself release. He thrusts viciously against her one last time as he let out a beastly and victorious howl. 

Covered with sweat, Gadalar’s body twitched all over as he began to come down from his high. Diana laid there against him her eyes closed and her breaths heavy. She could feel his warm seed within but she could also feel him slowly dripping out of her from the sides and down the man’s own length. As Gadalar looked up to her, his sapphire eyes seemed to have become tamer now. Gadalar closed his eyes and rested his forehead against the woman’s in front of him as they both came down from their high. Diana was the first to open her eyes and speak “That was…amazing” She said breathlessly. Gadalar laughed at her as he too opened his eyes, an honest and sweet smile spread across his face as he looked into her eyes. “Do you still hate me?” He said. Diana smiled softly and then raised an eye brow at him. “Only on the weekends!” She spoke with a smug look on her face. The Hume lifted her closer against him as he sat her upon the bed located across the room. As he sat next to her on the warm sheets, Gadalar chuckled as a few strands of hair fell into his face “That’s acceptable.” He then leaned in for one more kiss. It was sweet, honest and full of love. No words needed be exchange between the two as they slowly drifted off to sleep in each other’s arms; enveloped in the sound of the heavy rain upon the roof.
