In the morning, after they've both bathed, eaten, and they are finally dressed, she's explaining her plans for the morning to Skellig.
"I'm going to be doing two things at once," she explains. "A very overbooked artist has graciously squeezed me in for some henna work, so I'll be gone for a few hours. I'd bring you along, but she's not comfortable around men." Kreyu has her SUSPICIONS as to why, but she doesn't know.
"And since chatting is very much a part of the process, I'll be seeing what I can find out about any recent pirate attacks."

"Each of these I chose for a different reason," he explains as he watches her unwrap them.
First is the golden yellow: "I know how greatly my dragon desires gold, and to see you wear so many pieces of it over the time we have been here in Amikaya made me realize how lovely it looks upon your skin."
Then the darker grey, which shifts between charcoal and slate in the light of the candles and oil lamps, depending on how you look at it: "That one reminded me of your scales. They are a beautiful shade of grey...one might think it a plain color, but to me, it is not."
And last (but definitely) not least is the silk which has been dyed in the violet, a brilliant piece, which should need no explanation as she unwraps it.

Date: 2024-05-30 12:59 am (UTC)He lightly cups her cheek and leans in to kiss her, letting his body come close enough to hers that their skin makes contact just about everywhere possible along their front sides, her breasts against his chest, his cock against her hip.
"I have one more surprise for you," he murmurs when the kiss breaks briefly. It is only a brief pause for air, as he is happy to leave his lips to linger against hers. "It is perhaps the most...unique, of the things I have gathered."

Date: 2024-05-30 01:06 am (UTC)"You will definitely spoil me," she teases. She double checks for flowers that could get crushed before she lays the grey silk gently on the bed.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 01:33 am (UTC)"Now this isn't gold," he says, as he offers it over to her. "And I have not seen a piece like this in your collections, so I do hope you like it. I feel it will suit you nicely," he adds.
(She may detect a hint of hope in his voice, along with a touch of uncertainty - it truly is something he likes for her, and he hopes that she will like it as well, and not just because it is a gift from him.)
The intricate designs on the glass beads (lotuses and knotwork) contrast brightly with the silver pieces between, and the 'statement' piece at the center which has the silver interwoven within the lotus flower itself is bright and sparkles, even in the low light.

no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 01:59 am (UTC)(This is one of those moments, while she's kissing him with such intensity, such love and happiness and delight running through her veins, and it just feels good, feels right, in ways he cannot verbalize.)
So he allows himself to truly just absorb it; allows himself to take it in. And what he cannot verbalize, he will try to communicate in the way he returns her kiss, the way he allows his hands to wander her body, his arms wrapped around her to keep her close to him.
"Never seen anyone as lovely as you before," he whispers, once they finally do break. "One of a kind."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 02:07 am (UTC)"So are you, love," she replies, her breath already rough. "If this gift would survive what you have planned, I would like you to put it on me."
She laughs, low. "Then I could lounge upon those silks, my neck adorned with this lovely necklace, let you look upon the fine treasures heaped upon your altar," There's a hint of teasing in her tone.

Date: 2024-05-30 02:17 am (UTC)As an added bonus, while he is behind her he will have a chance to check over her backside to see if there are any other instances of henna that he might have missed on this side of her...
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 02:27 am (UTC)There is ONE henna mark, a crude thing of two thumbprints overlapped in such a way as to form a 'heart' at the small of her back.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 02:41 am (UTC)"It seems," he muses softly. "There is more artwork upon my dragon I have yet to trace."
The volume of his voice matches the pressure of the touch of his hands - soft, gentle - as he slowly sweeps his fingers across the tops of her shoulders to the back of her neck, working his fingertips over her shoulder blades (a moment of massage is spent there, as well as the points where her wings would emerge from her skin) and spine before his path seeks lower.
Once his fingers reach the thumbprints of henna, he covers one half of the heart with his own thumb, before kneeling behind her; his other hand gently cups her ass as he presses his lips against the small of her back, kissing beside that mark.

Date: 2024-05-30 03:08 am (UTC)Usually, when she is standing with him (with her wings exposed) he cannot get as close to her as he can now - so he does not turn her around to face him. Instead, he steps closer to her body, wrapping one arm around her midsection and bringing his hand to cup one of her breasts, teasing at the nipple while his other hand wanders to her hip, pulling her back against him in a hug.
His wings wrap around his shoulders and enclose her against him, as his lips fall to the side of her neck, kissing his way towards her ear.
"You are the piece of my soul I did not know I was missing," he whispers. "The piece I did not even know I had lost, until I was bound to you as we are."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 03:19 am (UTC)"I am almost glad you didn't know it was missing," she whispers. "I ached so, before I found you. Not just my body, but my heart. I NEEDED, and I didn't know what it was, WHO it was, that I needed."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 03:41 am (UTC)"Even if you melt, won't let you fall," he mutters. Allowing his hand on her hip to stray lower, he slips it around the front of her thigh, walking them one step closer to the edge of the bed. (This way, she can draw a knee up, rest it against the mattress, balance her weight...and also give him better access.) She wants him to touch her; he can sense it in her voice and in the way she presses her body against his, and it is intoxicating and arousing all at once.
His fingers find her clit again, stroking softly, his motions in sync with the rhythm set by his other hand teasing her nipple, his lips against her jawline.
"Never in my wildest dreams, could I have pictured you, my beautiful dragon," he adds. "And yet the moment I laid my eyes upon you in the desert, somehow my soul just...knew you were the one I sought." To be fair, his mind briefly panicked. But his soul...his soul knew.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 11:45 am (UTC)"Wanted you, from the moment I saw you," she gasps. "Didn't want to take advantage..." She moans in pleasure, long and low.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 01:42 pm (UTC)"I must have looked like a street rat," he mutters playfully, picturing in his mind briefly the moment he looked up and saw her walking towards him on the road - his skin reddened with sunburn, soaked with sweat, dirty hair and missing his boots and coat (and most of everything else) with his feathers askew, wings full of sand. "I am glad to know I am good looking even at my worst."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-30 10:31 pm (UTC)"Not a rat," she tells him, between gasps. "Just, lost, uncertain, in need of a friend." Something CLICKS now that didn't occur to her, consciously, at the time. "Like me."
She moans as his fingers tease her arousal, inside and out. "You feel so good when you stroke me."
"Was careful to just look at your face, when you took your pants off that first time. If you hadn't been so nervous, so uncertain, don't know that I would have been able to resist looking."

like me.
Skellig nuzzles at her neck as she says those words, and a small part of his heart aches because he knows that loneliness, that longing that comes with the lack of companionship. And to think that she had been feeling the same way that he had been hurts.
"I was very nervous," he admits. "Had no idea what was going on, I still...still felt like I might need to run," he admits. "But my soul told me that I was safe, and I am so very glad I listened."
He hugs her a little closer to his body, which in turn presses his cock against her ass, sending a shudder down his spine. He knows from his touches that she is more than close enough to take him, if he wanted to lay claim to her just like this. It is a consideration...he adds another finger to his stroking.
"Would not have minded if you looked," he adds. "Could rewrite the scroll," he mutters against her neck. "Come up with a better name for this." Nothing about mounting livestock or the breeding of farm animals. "Dragon worshipped by rod of the sun..."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 01:49 am (UTC)The feeling of his cock pressed against her ass only spurs her hunger for him higher, especially when he adds another finger to his stroking! "That, that sounds like an excellent idea," she gasps when he mentions rewriting the scroll. "Worship me like this, then lay me down on that lovely silk to admire your work."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 02:19 am (UTC)And, he will do just that which she suggests - because it is a most excellent idea!
With his one hand still working over her clit, he briefly removes his other from her breast and uses it to shift his cock, angling himself to be able to enter her; it takes some brief 'readjusting' of their bodies to find the position that is comfortable for both of them, but with this different alignment comes an entirely new set of sensations. Ones that he is finding quite pleasurable, and he suspects she is also enjoying.
Before he begins to move, he laughs a little against her neck, somewhat breathless. (How is he so lucky?) "You good, my love?"
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 02:30 am (UTC)She moans in pleasure as he slides inside of her. The sensations with this position are new, but she finds she's enjoying them.
"Very good," she tells him. She presses her body back against his, feels him shift just a little deeper inside of her. "You are my very own sun, make me feel so warm, so bright."
She rocks her hips just a little, an encouragement for him to move.
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 02:52 am (UTC)"I would fight leaving, even if you asked," he admits. "Because never..."
His sentence is cut off by a groan that overtakes his voice as she shifts her hips just a certain way, which combined with his movement causes a great deal of heat to coil in his belly.
"...never...never would I want to leave you, my dragon. This is where I belong. By your side. So that you can lounge...bask in the glow of your very own sun."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 03:06 am (UTC)"We belong together, my mate, my husband," she pants. "Want to spoil you, give you everything, the world."
no subject
Date: 2024-05-31 03:21 am (UTC)"No doubt you will do that," he promises. "Look forward to it. Want it, you, so much."
Whatever she would spoil him with, whatever she would give him, wherever she would take him in this world (or any other) he wants to be with her, his mate, his wife.
