I woke up like this - Klaudius - Sabra - 03-22-2018 He'd followed her, surprisingly enough. They'd flown in tense silence away from the others, coming to land in the foothills that separated Sylva from the common lands. Intentional neutral ground. Now she whirled to face the tall stallion, mare stare in full effect. She couldn't stop moving. Instead, she paced before him, her carefully manicured composure rendered useless by his presence. "What do you think you're doing, Klaudius? You have your little family on Ischia, twisted as it is. Why can't you let me have mine?" She paused her pacing to kick at a rock that looked at her wrong. They hadn't spoken in a year. Had it really been that long? She sighed deeply, finally looking at him properly. The fire in her eyes dulled into a soft burn. She had enough going on with her kingdom. Domestic dispute waa just another weight on her shoulders, one she was getting tired of. Kwartz was their child, and the time for that fact to become known was getting closer and closer. She had been doing all she could to stave it off. It was a conversation she wasn't looking forward to, mainly due to the complicated nature of the boy and his half siblings. Perhaps it was time for all parties involved to get on the same page. @[Klaudius] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Klaudius - 03-24-2018 Klaudius I was lightning, before the thunder @[Sabra] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Sabra - 03-24-2018 She stepped back, deflecting his touch. If he started with that, she'd forget what she wanted to talk about, and it was too important for that. This needed to be put to bed. "I think they're very important to this. Kwartz doesn't need that knowledge, that his father is a... a... an incestuous rapist." There, she'd said it. "Maybe Krone has chosen to forget, but I haven't. What do her children even call you? Are you father or uncle?" Was it really so far fetched, that she didn't want that kind of influence in her son's life? She had found a home, and had the power to say what did or didn't happen within it. If that wasn't enough to protect her son from her own mistakes, then there really was no justice in the world. But Kwartz was growing older, looking more like his father every day. Klaudius had a point, much as she hated to admit it. It wasn't fair to the boy. She shut her eyes and inhaled deeply, bracing herself to say what she was about to. Opening them again, she faced him straight on. "If Kwartz wants to know you, he may. Though it would seem you've taken that into your own control already. But Klaudius? Don't you dare hurt him. He is a good, kind boy and I will never forgive you if you change that." She had stepped closer with each phrase until her face was scant inches from his. Her voice was low and clear, intended to be heard only by the man currently in front of her. Ever fiber of her being reacted to him, negatively or positively. He had crawled inside her mind and now... damn. He smelled like salt and sandalwood and the island he lived on, threaded through with his own personal musk. She'd forgotten just how attractive he was. She was standing too close, had gotten carried away. Worse, she had just given him permission to be in her life again. @[Klaudius] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Klaudius - 03-25-2018 Klaudius I was lightning, before the thunder @[Sabra] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Sabra - 03-25-2018 Her words has stung him, though he tries to hide it behind his normal joking manner. Is it wrong that it gives her satisfaction? And then they are close, so close. His breath against the delicate skin of her neck is a clear indication that he has no intention of listening to her. "You would never what?" She growled low in her throat. He was impossible, truly. There were no rules when he was present, except for his own. It made him infuriating to be around. But then his lips touch her skin, and then she remembers why she had liked him before. Everything in her life was tightly controlled, strictly organized, and that was how she wanted it. But Klaudius introduced an element of chaos. He took control and filled whatever space he occupied. Filled it very well. She couldn't move away, even if she wanted to. Slow, traitorous heat spread from the point he touched, flowed along her veins with delicious deliberation. It gathered in her belly, and deeper. Damn him. She sighed and leaned into the touch, knowing she'd hate herself tomorrow. The gemstone queen could live with that. @[Klaudius] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Klaudius - 03-26-2018 Klaudius I was lightning, before the thunder @[Sabra] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Sabra - 03-27-2018 The heat that filled her drained away as quickly as it had come, leaving her cold inside. Was this really how she wanted to spend the rest of her life? Avoiding each other, fighting, fucking, rinse and repeat? No. No. "NO!" She shouted, pulling away violently. The pale woman backed away, chest heaving with emotion. "I will not do this with you again, Klaudius. I can't." He was dangerous. In every way possible. And she was done with his game. "You can spend time with Kwartz. Get to know him, knock yourself out. But we are finished. We are his parents, and that is the extent of our relationship from this point forward. Do you understand?" Every muscle was tight as she watched him. Her back would not be turned, not on him. The void was watching, and she would not fall into it. Not again. @[Klaudius] RE: I woke up like this - Klaudius - Klaudius - 03-27-2018 Klaudius I was lightning, before the thunder @[Sabra] |
