Morning Ecstasy [Arabella]

[Eldon Sunkiss]

Eldon's head was forcefully cocked to the side as the lingering burning ache vibrated on his cheek. Yes, that was actually a bad choice. Maybe anger was better than the sorrow she was struggling with moments ago. The Drykas were proud, just knowing what each one was proud about was difficult. Eldon was surprised to find that she immediately regretted striking him. He thought he deserved it, perhaps. He moaned lightly. Once she lifted her hand to his face though, his eyes were instantly drawn to the exposed shoulder. He was quick to take the fur and hold it back over her. He might get away with staring at her when they were drunk and out of their wits, but he wouldn't dare now, not while he was sober and logical (somewhat). "We both were." If Arabella saw herself as nothing but a whore, then he could be no better than taking advantage of someone smaller, weaker, and drunk. It was a double edged sword. "Feel a bit better?" Eldon knew that when he was angry, hitting something, throwing his axes, or riding across the plains in reckless speed of the strider under him always helped. Striking, though hardly permitted, could sometimes fit the role. Perhaps now it did. "Your brother is the Ankal of your Pavilion then?" Eldon wanted to challenge it, but if he was the Ankal, then there was little he could do about it. Defy tradition, whenever his father fought his entire life to keep it, would be a spit in the face on all the Sunkiss Ankal before him. To challenge an Ankal word was quite literally breaking one of the Seven Drykas Laws. It was not an option. He loved his people too much to be outcast from them. However, he had friends, his brother, his cousin, there were several that would back him up. Sama'el, Matasol, Denen, maybe even Dymphna and Vanator. If they supported him, went to Kayiri with him then he just might be forced to accept the proposal or lose the trust of the Drykas as an appropriate leader of his pavilion. Eldon lowered his head, imagining what possibilities there were available to make this work. Some loophole. Anything. It wasn't until Arabella mentioned the dangers of such a devious relationship that Eldon lifted his head again to stare at her, a shimmer of hope ignited in his eyes. It would be temporary until they got permission, but dangerous. Eldon was prepared to take that risk if she was. He nodded. Then she leaned forward. Their lips connected, awkward at first as Eldon was more surprised than anything, then it felt familiar. More than familiar, comfortable. More than comfortable, but right. Even more than right, but necessary. Eldon's cheeks took a faint pinkish tint once again as his eyes closed, he leaned back towards her. The passion was still there, even though the alcohol was gone. Sure, he still had the headache, but at that moment, he wouldn't have noticed. Eldon's hand released the fur that was partially hiding her nude body. He only released that so he could hold onto her. His left arm moved under the blanket behind her back, the other to the back of her neck where his thumb alone would trace small circles behind her ear. They sat there for a moment, one long exciting, blood pumping, body warming moment that lasted for what seemed one long welcomed hour, then she pulled back. Eldon slowly opened his eyes again, his face was only inches from hers, but he looked down towards her lips. Inviting. Accepting. Fragile and strong at the same time. Soft and firm. "If you still think it's better to end this now, you might want to." Eldon was in, if she was going to take this journey with him, driven by lust and passion, we would dive in head first. If secrecy was required, so be it. He would do that if he could kiss those lips again. If he had to fight Kayiri tooth and claw over Arabella, so be it. Eldon would neither back down nor give up. Eldon's lower lip quivered lightly, he beckoned for more, but he had to know for certain she was willing to do this. Eldon was ready to take the dive into deep water, but he wasn't about to push her just so he might find her waiting for him. No, she had to make this choice herself.

[Arabella Starweaver]

He looked upset, anger crossed his face, then it reddend as he pulled the fur back over her. She was embarrassed again to, he should have to see her naked again, she drew it back around her tightly. She should probably get dressed, make it easier for him to deal with. She didn't feel much better, knowing she was making him so uncomfortable. She tried to hide it though and forced a smile, it looked pained and sad though. "I'll be fine, no big deal." she tried to brush the situation off like it was nothing. Arabella shook her head "No, my father, Kayair is. Kayiri is just headstrong, it runs in the family." that was true, they were all a little out there. Very head strong and full of pride and power, it was a good thing usually, but currently it was rather upsetting. She watched him silently, his mind seemed to be whirling around, she could almost see the wheels in his mind turning, and when he nodded to the proposal of facing the danger she felt joy in heart. She smiled, a real smile, for the first time the entire morning. She had a brilliant smile, it lit up her entire face and she beamed. She tried to reign it in though, not wanting to seem foolish, this was just about sex, nothing more, and she had to remain herself of that. He hadn't said otherwise and that is what she would believe until he did so. "You shouldn't challenge my family, not on my account, we can keep it a secret, I'm good at hiding from them." she didn't want to cause any trouble for anyone. She was torn between her love for her family, and her need to be with Eldon more. It was almost magical, when he took her in his arms and moved closer to her, she thought he'd be angry at her for kissing him, for her boldness, but he embraced it. Her blood pumped and her heart raced and she let her arms wrap around his neck again. It was one of the moments you never want to end, she sighed, feeling blissful as the tingles came back and moved up her spine. For once in her life, her brain shut off and she finally stopped thinking. That it itself was a miracle, she was always thinking, always racing around doing a million things, but now she was happy to stay in this one moment forever. It ended though, and a small pout formed on her face, but she tried to push it away. She didn't want to seem childish or silly in front of him. He could stop whenever he wanted, she just preferred he didn't. He was staring at her, Arabella blushed in his gaze, she seemed to be doing that a lot lately. It as unusual for her, she was never particularly girly, growing up in a family full of men it was hard to be fragile and girly. She had learned to be tough and have a thick outer shell. But he confirmed he was in and she was in, no matter how foolish a choice it was she was more then in. That beaming smile came back and she didn't even bother answering, she had a one track mind and knew what she wanted. She kissed him again, dragging it out for as long as he would allow it, and for once in her life, she didn't care what anyone thought, not even Kay. She'd be happy whether he liked it or not.

[Eldon Sunkiss]

"Then it's your father's call." Eldon mentioned, though it was a pointless statement. They had decided this would be a secret, for how long would it last? Who knows, who cares. It was for the moment, the longer that moment lasted, the better. Keeping a secret meant longer before they were found out. Eldon grinned lightly. "Does that make you headstrong as well?" Eldon was quite headstrong himself, Kayiri and he had often butted heads in hunts, or just training in general. Being stubborn had its advantages. There wasn't a way for Eldon to describe what he had felt. It was, quite simply, passionate. Their lips latching onto each other, entangling themselves much like Eldon and Arabella had done the previous night. This was different though, even though they were about about as clothed as they were (only difference was Eldon had pants on now). This was, the best that Eldon could figure, pure. There was no ale coursing through their veins, nothing provoking the emotions except those emotions themselves. Natural. Given what Eldon had been going through, this may have just been exactly what he needed, a recovery plan. He needed Arabella. For a moment, she pulled away, but to confirm, once and for all, she moved back in for the kill. Eldon hadn't the strength nor the will to resist. Once again their lip locked, eyes closed. Eldon leaned into the kiss, into Arabella. The arm that was around her back was soon the arm that was lowering to onto the ground, the blanket, now neglected as her hands were around his neck. Still, Eldon didn't pull away, the kiss was too much of what he wanted. It took several minutes before he pulled away. "Arabella..." Eldon lightly brushed his fingers against her cheek, "You're too beautiful of a woman to not be treated like one." Eldon, of course, was talking about her being controlled by her brother. It seemed so cruel for her to be stuck in a pavilion like that without some sort of freedom. Maybe Eldon was as good for her as she was for him. With Eldon looming above Arabella triggered a few recollections. The previous night, the extensive (and rather crude thanks to the ale) flirting, the touching, it was all there. Eldon bit down lightly on his bottom lip as he glanced over her body. "Tell me, what do you remember from last night? I can't help but think this looks familiar." There was a mischievous grin spreading across his face as his eyes peered directly down into hers. Would she feel uncomfortable now that they hadn't any booze boiling away their fears of first impressions? Eldon felt none, perhaps a weak anxiety in his chest, but fear, none.

[Arabella Starweaver]

Arabella knew it was her father's call, but that wouldn't change things much, he would probably take Kay's opinion into account and then she'd be screwed. It was sad, but true, and there wasn't much she could do about it, no matter how bad she wanted to. "I'm very headstrong, haven't you noticed? I slapped you for goodness sakes!" she was fiesty for a girl, never taking things in stride and always getting her way, she fought for whatever she wanted. Well except this, if this came to light then what would she do? She didn't know if she could stand up to her family, they would shun her, and then what would she be? Nothing, she'd be dead to them, she wasn't sure she could handle that. She loved this feeling, this new found feeling of happiness and joy she had. Maybe he was the cure to her need to leave Endrykas, maybe now she didn't have to. Arabella always wanted to escape here, to see the world, but she could stay behind if she was with Eldon from now on. But what of the times she wasn't with him? When she had to pretend she didn't know who he was? She wasn't sure how she would handle that, what if she saw him somewhere, she just had to fake no knowledge of him? She had to push these thoughts from her mind and enjoy what was happening now, being with him in his arms in there own twisted and dangerous little world. A world she would come to love soon. As she was lowered down she looked up at him, her eyes full of that innocence a child has, she was sober now, she wasn't even sure if she knew what she was doing without drinking first. She brushed hair from his face and smiled at his comment in a devilish way "Well you should have thought of that last night, I look like I've been attacked, all these bruises."It was true, she had huge black and blue marks all over her body, one on her inner thigh was perfectly hand shaped. They stung slightly, but in a good way, a way that made her smirk further. "Clearly I can handle anything, strongest in all the land!" she laughed, it was musical, a sound not many had heard who knew her. She wasn't a big laughter, or smiler for that matter. She was always somber and composed, the way she was trained. Giggling she went on to tell him about her flashbacks, briefly, some details she wanted to keep to herself, she was to embarrassed to say them out loud. She was never one to tease and flirt like this, she had a very sheltered life, and a sheltered mind to go with it. "In all honesty, I have no idea if what I was doing was even right, I've never even seen a man naked before, this is a shock to me. I think the drinking made me more knowledgeable than I actually am." she flushed embarrassed by this, she was a silly little girl with silly ideas. She knew nothing of the world of sex and men.

[Eldon Sunkiss]

Eldon was still hovering over Arabella, either hand of his planted firmly on the ground next to her shoulders, leaving small hand prints in that blanket that was sprawled out beneath her. He slowly lowered his head downwards, closing that already small gap between their faces, though instead of moving to kiss her, yet again, he moved his lips next to her ear. "I hardly felt it. Seems a little weak to me." Eldon's malicious smile only grew as he teased her. Headstrong, he translated that into being 'unable to accept weakness'. He was like that, Kay was like, surely Arabella was as well. He chuckled lightly as he lifted his head once more, he had to see the expression on her face, the rage or playful burst of energy that might show. Anything, he wanted some reaction of any kind. Eldon liked Arabella simple because she wasn't a soft, weak, scared girl, but she was strong, fierce, and for her small stature, surprisingly strong when fueled by passion. "Perhaps your right. Maybe you weren't as tough as I thought. I can be gentle if you like. Kind of like a puppy. I'll just sit here, share hugs." Eldon shrugged playfully. "If these bruises are too much for you, I mean." Eldon tossed Arabella a quick wink as he moved his right hand from the floor to her stomach. The body felt extremely warm against his cool hand. The quivering vibrations of her expanding slim stomach as she naturally breathed, or perhaps shallow breaths if she was a little more timid than the previous night. His index finger extended outwards as the rest of his fingers curled into a fist. The lone erect finger traces a small line from between her breasts, and slowly down towards the naval. "What makes you happy Arabella? The strong breeze in your hair? The adrenaline pumping excitement of a hunt? Perhaps the warm moist breath of the man staring down at you like a hungry monster? Does that excite you, or scare you?" When Arabella revealed this was her first time, or technically last night was her first time to really see a man, Eldon's eyes widened. He was surprised because of just how aggressive she was, how into it she was. Perhaps she had wanted it so much that everything she imagined, thirsted for, came out in her like a raging wave of ecstasy. He grinned again, even chuckled lightly. She thought it was the alcohol, but Eldon wasn't buying it. Something like this, just how natural it really was, was natural for them to do. It was her desire that pushed her to do what she did. Eldon shook his head slowly. "Did you not desire the effects you made? That wasn't the drink, that was you, Arabella." She blushed again, Eldon leaned over again, pressing his lips against hers. Yes, this was what they wanted. The primal need for passion with the opposite sex, yet the thrill of hiding it right in front of everybody, the subtle fear that they would be caught, it only made it more intense, more thrilling, more urging. Perhaps the fear would turn her off some, but for Eldon, it made it that much more exotic, more delicious.

[Arabella Starweaver]

She loved a challenge, and no one called her weak and got away with it. Determiniation creeped over her face, she glared at him playfully. "I guess I will just have to do it again, maybe the drinking made me weaker." she stuck her tongue out at him like a child. No one called her weak, she would defend her strength and take all day to prove it if she had to. She stretched out beneath him, extending her arms over her head, he was huge compared to her. She was short and slender, Arabella was dwarfish compared to most males she knew. His size didn't intimiate her thought, she could take him if she had to. She set her mind to do so should the need arise. She knew he was teasing her, and two could play at that game, it was rare someone joked with her. Most people sort of overlooked her, she wasn't the most fantastic little thing in the world, and generally silent people had no reason to see her as anything more then a door mat. She loved that he looked at her like she was a real person, he actually saw her, didn't look through her like most people. Arabella's whole body froze, then shivered, her eyes got wide and darkened slightly. She breathed a little bit faster as his hand moved down her, her heart was pounding so loud she was almost positive he could hear it. She moved her hand to his arm to stop him but then just let it rest on him, staring at him as he spoke. She felt the flush reaching up her neck now. She was embarassed and had no idea why, maybe it was because of her reaction. All of her senses came alive with just one touch, it frustrated her, but it fascinated her at the same time. She didn't have an answer to his question, this terrified her, and excited her at the same time. The feelings creeping all over her body were enough to send her over the edge, she had no idea why he found this torment so fun. She had to stop him somehow, but her brain had shut off again, way to go head, just stop working when I actually need you. She tried to flip over but she was under him and didn't get very far. "You uh...do realize this isn't fair, right?" her voice was mousy and jumpy, it shook a little. Her nervousness was evident, but a small smile played upon her lips. She looked at him "This, this makes me happy, and scared...and slightly terrified, but more happy." it was the only answer to his question she had. It was true, he did make her happy, at least right now. Scaring her was a whole nother thing. She couldn't remember a time in her life when she had ever felt fear. Arabella wasn't scared of him, she was scared of all of this. She had these nagging dark thoughts in the back of her mind, she didn't like secrets, she'd keep them, but she wasn't really happy about them. They bugged her, it made her mad. "I doubt that, I mean, I don't do things like that. I obey, I mean okay, I don't obey but I don't disobey to this point usually, I stay in some sort of line." Was it even possible that was her? If it was, what hat provoked it? She couldn't think of anything that would make her react that way, but even looking up at him now, sober and clear, she felt like she could do it again. He gave her some kind of strength, she couldn't quite explain how, she just knew that he did. "What effects did I make? I didn't do anything to make an effect. she was confused by that statement, unsure of what he meant. "Eldon, what makes you happy? Since you asked me it's only right I know about you." it was a little late to get to know him, but she wanted to try. Eldon was kissing her again, and she let him, she certainly wouldn't fight him off. She put her hands on his back and pulled him closer to her. Arabella loved the feeling of him on her, he had power, you could feel it, it was delicious the way he acted so aggressively towards her. She put her hands on the floor and lifted herself closer to him, crushing her chest against his, she pulled her face away and moved towards his neck, kissing it slowly. He tasted good, and she enjoyed doing it, hoping she didn't look like a total idiot.

[Eldon Sunkiss]

Eldon chuckled lightly, though it almost sounded more gasping exhales. He was getting excited, their back and forth teasing was was cute, humorous, arousing. Yes, he was thoroughly aroused. He could have been wrong, but she seemed to fit the part quite well also. "Again? I don't know if once more will prove anything. For all I know, you might not even have the energy for another go." Eldon continued to grin, to smile with that childlike deviousness, yet the entire time he spoke, he was staring into her eyes. Sure, occasionally he would glance at her chest, but there was something else. He was more interested in her as a person, more interested in her feelings, her reactions, her personality. He was a pansexual. Sure, he was easily aroused by the female body, but that's not what kept him going, that wasn't the reason why he was so attracted to her, and not other women. She was aggressive. She was a lady, but not a damsel in distress. She wanted love and passion and raw energetic sensuality, but not to just sleep around with anyone that might be able to satisfy her. He knew what she wanted, and at the moment, at least that moment, that thing was him. He didn't know why, but he knew that he didn't want to know. There were some mysteries you loved simply because you didn't understand. The gods, the traditions of old, passions of a woman. Eldon wanted to know what they were, but not why they were. That was her reason, it was a secret, like he now was. Without more than a glance or two at her body, Eldon's hand moved to her chest, not picking up his touch from her skin, but again trailed upwards, dragging the smooth top of his fingernail from her naval, slowly but directly towards it's destination. She then mentioned about this being 'unfair', Eldon frowned lightly. The last thing he wanted was to hurt her emotionally. Their situation was already complicated. He pulled back suddenly, a flash of concern was painfully obvious. Are you alright? If this doesn't feel right, we can... not do this." Eldon began to gnaw on his lower lip, a little more viciously than usual, a nervous habit of his. "Are you alright with a little terror?" Eldon asked again, though this time was not playful. He wanted to make sure not to wound her. Sure, he was in the perfect advantage to have his way with her, but that's not what he wanted, and that's definitely what she wanted. "Just tell me if you want to back up, I don't want you getting hurt." Her nervousness seemed to subside moments later, and even though Eldon would be cautious, he slid back into the mood, and what's this? Questions? Ah, so be it. And eye for an eye, and an answer for another. Perhaps this was the fairness she had mentioned. Eldon grinned once again and he pretended to hesitate. "Me? I suppose I love the strong winds coursing through my hair, the thrill of chasing down that perfect hunt, and the warmth of your body calling to me. It's a situational thing really. I wonder what situation this is." Eldon chuckled lightly as she sought the answer to another statement. "You didn't make an effect? No, we did. My memory seems to serve me a little better than it did a bit ago. It seems you ignited something in me I've never experienced. Eldon's face was so close her hers that he could feel her panting on his nose. "That's the effect you have." Moments later she was sitting up, pressing her body against his, her mouth on his neck, and his moaning because of it. His chest heaved almost violently as his blood pulsed harder, his heart pounded with greater strength and ferocity, his eyes closed and he was in heaven. "Arabella." Eldon wrapped his arms around her slender body, his fingers behind her, stroking her back, falling lower, down her back, until they found the butt and gave a firm squeeze, which was followed promptly by quick dark grin.

[Arabella Starweaver]

He was laughing at her again, she rolled her eyes, tired of his nonsensical games. Arabella wasn't one to tease, and she wasn't one to call weak either, she didn't take it well. She knew she had more then enough energy, but she decided maybe he needed to be punished for his rudeness. No one called her weak, not even him. "I don't know, you didn't really tire me out the first time, it was rather pitiful to be honest. I mean there are bruises sure, but I'm just a little girl, I bruise easy, doesn't mean it takes a toll." her eyes glimmered, she was wicked and very into this banter they had. Her entire body was quivering beneath him, waiting, wanting, needing him. She could taste him on her lips, and she craved more, but she had to play to cool, she couldn't let him know that he could win this spat. She loved everything about him, and the fact he wasn't afraid of being caught like this, her family could be ruthless, especially her brother, and Eldon knew him, and still wanted her more. She had a huge confidence boost in knowing that little fact, no one had ever wanted her before unless it was to hunt something or take care of children. He wanted her in an animalistic way, and she wanted him just as badly. She giggled at him, his concern for her was sweet, she put her hands behind her head "A little fear never hurt anyone, you have to face your fears after all." that was true, she had always been told that, so no matter how scared she was of the situation, her desire for him was stronger then any fear she had. It was then she realized she was talking out loud "I had no idea anything could be like that honestly, the only thing that is scary is that I don't think I can do it again and I don't want to embarass myself, and ya know, I don't want to be a disappointment, I mean your risking a lot to sleep with me that would just be terrible.she clapped her hands over her mouth, her eyes got wide. Why the hell had she said any of that out loud, that was bad, even for her. "Er...I mean...uhm....ha" she was at a loss for words for once. Arabella didn't know how to cover that up. Hunting? Of course, every man like to hunt, she even like to hunt. She was good at it, one of the best, and she was always proud of that fact. He was talking about her, and it made her smile slightly, "It's calling to you now and I don't see you doing anything about it. It's rude to deny someone something they so desperately need...er..want. Yes want."[/b] she had to correct herslef quickly. His face was so close to hers, she gazed at it, trying to commit every feature to memory so that when they were apart she could dream up something big if need be. She grabbed his hand which was still moving around her chest and placed it over her heart, it was beating very fast and very loud. She smiled and got closer to him "That's the effect you have." he made her heart soar and she craved the feeling. She hoped that fact didn't scare him off, to tell the truth she had no idea how he felt about her, she just knew they were having fun. She tried not to dwell on it much. Arabella heard her name, and for once it sounded like it came out in happiness and pleasure, he moved his hands down her spine and she squealed a little. "Shame on you." she murmured the words as she worked her way down to his chest then randomly back upwards, kissing his chin and around his mouth in a teasing way. Maybe she could do things she didn't think possible, well she liked a challenge, and this sure was one.

[Eldon Sunkiss]

Eldon continued to grin, his hands continued their massaging of her rear, and his voice continued to whisper their teasing words into the air as she moved up and down his bare muscular chest. "Perhaps this time I'll have to make sure you are good... and... tired. Too tired to walk maybe. Maybe that would show us who's stronger after all." Eldon felt a strong connection with this girl, it was hard to know what to call it. Passion, that probably accounted for whatever it was. He may not know what this was, but he knew he wanted it. She was the forbidden fruit, the thing he should not touch, the thing he should not see like this, but that's only another reason why he wanted her. She was the prize he shouldn't be blessed with, but was going to fight for, was going to enjoy no matter the cost on his behalf. "I disagree. A little fear makes everything a little more exciting. A little more craving. A little more... sensual. That's the way we live. We ride in danger, live in danger, make love in danger. This only makes too much sense, you and me, right here, right now." During his whispers, Eldon's right hand left Arabella's rear, shifted to her leg, the inside of the thigh. His hand was moving closer, closer, inch by inch. "Shh, don't talk like that." Eldon took his left hand under her chin, lifting her to face him again, and if only to make he stop talking about herself like that, kissed her. A strong lengthy kiss, then pulled away. He had to look her in the eyes. "Don't ever say that. This isn't about impressing me. It's more of a risk for you. You need to enjoy this." Eldon's hand was there now, between her legs, resting there, waiting until she confirmed that this truly was what she wanted. In a way, it was too late to turn back, to back before yesterday, but she could deny this moment if it wasn't what she wanted. Eldon would hold, he would wait, he would stop, continue no further unless and until she wanted it. He wanted this, so badly he hungered for it, but he had self control, he was strong, headstrong even. He was stronger that his animalistic urges, he was more than an Animal, he was Drykas. Bold, honorable, dangerous, and respectful. "I think I like this effect. Is it enough?" His fingers twitched lightly as the rested between her legs. His smile returned to his face. "You're in control here. What do you say Arabella? Want to make this risk worth while?" Eldon had to wonder if she felt the same excitement he did from the fear of Kay finding out. It had to be different, knowing the person you were hiding from was the person you lived with on a daily basis, saw on a daily basis, tried to shelter you on a daily basis. If it was Eldon's father, if he was still alive, it would have felt different, but his father was gone now. There was nobody to tell him 'no', except of course, Arabella if she chose. Unless she told him to stop, his index and middle fingers would wander. It was highly unlikely they were this slow, this romantic, this talkative and less screaming the previous night, but everything was different except for the feeling that was fueling their bodies. His fingers moved slowly, yet as if they had a mind of their own, Eldon kept his eyes on her face, always watching, always reading her expressions, her lips, her eyes. He wanted to see the ecstasy pouring from her face, the hunger for more, that's what he wanted to see, to feel. Her pleasure, so that it could be his also.

[Arabella Starweaver]

"Eldon baby, I don't think you have it in you to tire me out, I'm far stronger and need to use a lot less force for you to succumb to my will, clearly." she smirked at him, he was basically reacting the way she wanted him to, unbeknownst to him. "I have to walk, I do have to go home at some point." as she said it she felt in instant sadness. She didn't want to leave, if Arabella had a choice she'd stay here forever, he could keep her prisoner her to do with what he wanted when he wanted to. The passion and desire she felt for him was far to deep for her to ignore and to be away from. The disconnect would make her miserable, even more miserable then before. This was the happiest she had been in so long, and she didn't think she wanted to give it up. All of this danger was so alluring, it made being with him even more tempting and wonderful, who wouldn't want that? She knew she'd get into trouble if they were found out, but she was beginning to see it was well worth the risk. He was right about it all making sense, but it made little sense at the same time, this was bad and for some reason neither of them seemed to stop because of that. It was a huge risk on both their parts "Eldon, what happens after right now though? Do we just resume our lives like nothing happened and forget about each other?" she didn't know how that would work out, if this was just for now, and then it was over. She hoped not, she tried to hide the sadness in her voice but it was hard, her bottom lipped quivered slightly before he kissed her again. She shook her head at him "This is more of a risk to you, they'd just hide me away or shun me or something, what would happen to you?"she didn't know about all of that, Arabella wasn't really prepared to face those consequences. She felt his hand on her, knew what he wanted, and what she wanted more then anything, but what about the trouble? The problem this could cause for them would be great, she had never wanted anything more and she didn't want to deny herself, she moaned slightly as he reached his destination. Her entire body was radiating heat, such desire shouldn't exist, but here it was, here and now, just like he said. "I just...I don't want you to get into trouble...or to get hurt or me to get hurt...I don't want it to end but if it keeps going we could be hurt." she was more talking to herself, trying to work things out in her mind. Arabella knew it was a bad idea to look at him, but she did it anyway, it kind of swept her brain away but she didn't care. Never had she wanted anything more then this right now, and never had she felt so alive and real. She kissed him again and murmured into his mouth in a breathy sigh "I do want you more than anything" and it was true and she felt relief as she said it. Staying true to herself was important, she wanted to be happy and she wanted him to be happy. "I'm not going to say no, this is what I want." she meant it with all her heart. The excitement, the adrenaline, it was all making her dizzy. The excitement that was coursing through her veins was unlike anything she had ever experienced. She wanted more, wanted to feel more, to be connected more. Her eyes darkened with a hungry, animal-like look, her lips parted slightly and she sighed softly, in turned into a sound of frustration as she waited for him to move, to do anything. She was never patient and she wasn't about to start now. She let her fingernails trail down the front of him, moving them in small circles all over his chest and abdomen. She looked at his face for any acknowledgment.
