To Become Royalty

[Radon Mont]

"Shh," he said lifting his free hand up to touch her lips. "Don't talk. Merely do." If she kept at it, she would talk herself out of it. Besides, for Falleen her body was alien anyways. That and there was no guarantee that anyone would see them at all. He could barely make out the people moving around down at the front of the palace as it was. They'd have to be looking for them, for starters, and then be using something to get a better view in order to be able to see them. He slid his hand to tug her dress down, wanting it off of her. "Relax and focus on what feels good." Like his hand, for example, as it roamed over her.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Relax. That was hard to do out in the open like this. She still wasn't quite used to this yet. Sexual intimacy was still new to her, after all, when she first met him, she was a pure as a virgin could be.
She let him tug her dress down, but with bright pink cheeks, she covered her body with her hands as best she could.
"Okay," she murmured shyly, "I'll trust you on this one. Take me, Radon."

 

[Radon Mont]

"You're adorable when you do that," he said as she tried to cover up, blushing the whole time. He removed his own clothing and turned her towards the railing. The next short while was a blissful display of lovemaking in a visible, but not visible manner. If anyone saw, no one said anything. Considering the sun was going down, and very few people were likely to be looking that way anyways, they were relatively safe. It was exhilerating and wild, and he enjoyed it just as he always did. When they were done, he pulled her down alongside him atop their discarded clothes, holding her close as he rested there.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Lenne lay beside him, body tangled in his, beads of sweat on her body cooling in the air. She looked up at him, smiling.
"I don't know what to say," she admitted breathlessly, "I've never done.... that. It was fun. I can't believe I'm saying it, but it was."
She gave him a peck on the cheek.
"You are truly amazing."

 

[Radon Mont]

A smile tugged at his lips as he lay with her. "I'm not amazing, dear. I'm just me." It might not be much, but he really didn't think that much of himself. He was just a Falleen with goals to take over the galaxy. That didn't make him anything better than many of the people in the galaxy. The only thing that really made him better was that he was a Falleen. Either way, there was only one amazing one amongst them. "The only amazing one here is you, dear one. You are the perfection I have sought for. I am quite happy to be fortunate enough to have you and do hope that you will never leave me." He lifted her up some so that he could nuzzle her lightly.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

She shivered lightly, snuggling close to keep warm as the heat of their passion faded.
"I'll never leave," she promised, "I can't. I stay where my husband and children are."

 

[Radon Mont]

That brought a smile to his lips. He was going to be her husband and he was damn proud of that fact. Not only that, but he was going to be the father of their children. Many, many children. "We're going to have an expansive family, you and I. Lots of little ones to keep track of. Hope you're up for it." He winked at her and traced his fingers up and down her spine as she lay against him. He felt the compulsion to stay up there with her all night and why not? It was just them in their rooms anyway. Despite the heat between them, the night was somewhat cool. Fortunately she would keep him warm. "I'm too comfortable to move."

 

[Lenne Fayth]

The idea of having many children appealed to Lenne. She was young, inexperienced. As the youngest, she knew very little about what it really took to raise a child. She would learn in time, and maybe her excitement about breeding would fade.
Maybe.
"It's so chilly though," she complained.

 

[Radon Mont]

She had a point. "Don't move." He gently took her off of him and then climbed up. Walking back into his grandparents old quarters, he went to a dusty wardrobe and pulled it open. It threw dust in his face and he coughed once before waving his hand to dissipate the cloud of the stuff. When it was gone, he pulled out a blanket and then closed the wardrobe. Walking back out, he lay down again and pulled her up beside him once more before throwing the thermal blanket over top of them. Being a Falleen, cold nights meant thermal blankets, even when controlling the temperature. "That's better."

 

[Lenne Fayth]

He really did want to sleep out here! The woman was grateful for the blanket, but that did not mean she was comfortable sleeping naked on the balcony of her future husbands dead grandparents bedroom.

 

[Radon Mont]

Former bedroom. Now it was just a room waiting for use. Still, he could feel her trepidation. "What's the matter? Are you still cold?" He got the impression that wasn't it, though. The blanket should be enough to keep them warm coupled with her body heat. "Is it because the room used to be that of my grandparents? If so, you should know that our room was one my parents when my grandparents were still in power. It's just a room, dear. And we're alone here and will remain so. Besides, look up." He nodded his head towards the sky above them and all of the stars twinkling. Someday it would all belong to them, he knew it.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Lenne snuggled close under the blanket, nude bodied pressed tight against each other for warmth.
"What's the matter? Are you still cold?"
She nodded, wrapping her arms around his body, following his gaze to the brilliant sky above them. She knew what he was thinking. That sky would be theirs. Someday. She smiled. she never dreamed of this. It was a brilliant life. Even if she never left this world again in her life, even if she only made children for her husband and raised them, even if someday she died doing that for him, it was still a great life. She would be well taken care of here.
"It's so beautiful. Radon, when are you planning on leaving again to go back out there?"

 

[Radon Mont]

"I don't know," he answered her. And he didn't. Truth was that he was really comfortable just being on Falleen with her and giving that up was something that he didn't particularly feel keen on doing. All he wanted to do was be with her. There were plans still in motion, but he wasn't even thinking about such things. They were for the future. What was now was immediate, safe, wonderful. The smell of her as she lay beside him. The stars above their head. The feeling of contentment and joy he'd so longed for after his sister's death. These were things that parting with would only make him regret. He snuggled closer to her, running his hand lightly over her slightly protruded belly. "Time will tell. For now my only concern is here, with you. I don't even want to think about leaving."

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Lenne smiled, letting her eyes finally drift shut.
"Whatever happens... don't leave again until after the baby is born," she pleaded softly, suppressing a yawn, "I couldn't stand giving birth without you there with me."

 

[Radon Mont]

"That's quite a while from now, but I'll try," he said as she closed her eyes. He wouldn't be able to do that because something was going to happen shortly after this, just before their wedding, which would give him a new mission. Of course he was certainly not going to leave before their wedding. That wasn't about to happen for any reason. And when it came to the child, he planned to be there come hell or high water. "Relax. I'll be there when our first child is born, I promise you." He brushed his hand up and down her back as they lay there together. This was, perhaps, the nicest night they'd ever had together. Maybe that was just because he was comfortable on his homeworld, or maybe it was just that they were outside. He didn't care. It was just nice.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

"You better be there," she yawned, sleepily nuzzling up to him.
It wouldn't take long for her to fall asleep.

 

[Radon Mont]

He would be. He made a promise, after all. Brushing her back, he turned his eyes from the stars to watch her as she gently fell into slumber. For all the bit about them being outside at the Palace of his family, she did fall asleep rather easy, which was good. He imagined it helped that she was in his arms and comfortable. It did seem, at least to him, that she never had trouble sleeping when he was there to hold her. After a while, he closed his eyes and began to drift off to sleep himself. He knew they wouldn't be disturbed. He wasn't a young child anymore. Nobody would panic if they didn't find him, they'd just presume he was out with her. That was enough to let him sleep peacefully, especially with her beside him.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Lenne was tired. She was always tired. No wonder. Her body was working overtime now. Almost at once, she dropped off to sleep. No matter how uncomfortable the situation, she could always fall asleep in his arms.

 

[Radon Mont]

And so they slept for hours and hours, all the way into the morning. That was alright, though. The only thing either of them had to do was Lenne was going shopping with Navella, which left Radon to do whatever he wanted. Maybe he'd go out into town and just walk around for a bit or something. Anyway, he rolled his hand up to his face and rubbed at his eyelids. Light was glaring through them. Turning a glance upwards, he peeked his eyelids open to see the sun was already rising enough to signify that it was nowhere near early, and yet also not quite midday. He moved his hand down to run along Lenne's side, feeling her soft skin all the way down to her thigh, but he didn't say anything to wake her. She'd wake when she was ready.

 

[Lenne Fayth]

Lenne was fighting it. she didn't want to wake yet. But with the rising sun was irritating. Of course, first thing in the morning, it was a little disorienting.
"Mmm.... Radon, turn off the lights. What are you doing?"
