Royal Guard [Closed]

[Zenophoenix]

As Andria leaned in, he held her even closer, his body heat emanating to Andria. She, fortunately, wasn't off-put by his actions. He closed his eyes, enjoying the music until Andria had spoke him.

"So you seemed deep in thought, is there anything in particular on your mind Exa?"

He paused for a moment and then smiled. There was actually a lot on his mind. Her, Alucuin, this party, the music, this place. All of Rosinder had been nothing but sheer joy ever since he set foot into the town. Most of all, this wonderful woman he was dancing with had given him plenty to hope for.

He stopped their dance and just held her body close to his, whispering in her ear the entire time, so that he wouldn't be heard. "Yes, there is plenty for me to think about. This place, my new friend, and most importantly..." He planted a deep kiss on Andria's soft lips. ... the life I want to have with you." He continued their dance, filled with passion and affection for Andria. Were it not for the atmosphere, he would've taken that kiss to another level.

He slowly twirled her about, looking at the expression on her face and once again drenching himself in her sweet aroma. The other people of the party had become a blur in his mind that meshed with the lighting. The only person he could make out was Andria. Her body, her smile, her demeanor, her passion, her sexiness. She was the only thing he could think about. He had never felt this way before, not even his previous love interest could captivate his heart like Andria had. In only such a short time, she had made him defenseless, had penetrated through his noble, yet protective exterior, she was the only one who could possibly lay claim to his mending heart.

As part of a response to her question, Exa leaned in and kissed her deeply. She kissed him back passionately. She knew that kissing a man she hasn't been seen with before isn't lady-like, but she didn't care. The kiss was intoxicating, it made her head spin.

The life I want to have with you

The answer to her question sunned her, here this perfect gentleman and potential Guard wanted her. She hadn't expected him to make a move so bold, but she was glad he did. He continued to dance with her twirling her gracefully.

"I've been waiting on a man like you for some time now. You are the first I have had these feelings for so deeply."

She whispere gently into his ear, still pressing her body close to his. She wanted to leave soon. To go and talk to him more about what had just happened. She ws having an even beter night than she had expected.

Exa

"I've been waiting on a man like you for some time now. You are the first I have had these feelings for so deeply."

So it was true, she had felt the same way about him as he did about her. After the song came to a quiet, serene close, he let go of her embrace and grasped her hand, leading her out of the door, bidding farewell to the guests and bidding farewell to Alucuin. If the fates were feeling sympathetic to his cause, then they would meet again. After the farewells, he led Andria past the fountain and they hurried down the winding streets, the moonlight casting their shadows behind them.

He had taken her back to the hotel lobby and quickly carried her up to the room. He had never felt so alive before, he was actually excited to be with her. He kissed her again and sat her in the chair in his room. She had a lot on her mind and he had a lot on his and he didn't want to wait another second to explore the depths of her love and to see if it was true.

"Andria, is your love true?" He asked silently, as he went over and turned on the lamp in his room.

[Jennex]

He didn't respond to what she said, he simply continued holding her close to him and dancing. As the song slowly died, he released her she looked into his eyes wondering why he had stopped dancing. He began to lead her out of the ballroom, as she wondered where they were going she waved good-bye to everyone. She saw Alucuin and waved to her as well, hoping she would not be upset with them for leaving the party so early. She followed him back to his hotel matching his quick stride until he entered into the lobby. She was literally swept off her feet. As he carried her to his room a million things flashed through her mind. Everything was so sudden, he kissed her again, it was passionate and hungry. She couldn't fathom how her feelings had grown so strong so fast. He sat her down in the chair as they looked at eachother.

is your love true?

She looked up at him from under her eyelashes and smiled playfully at him. She took a moment to find the words that would describe what she was thinking and knew that she couldn't exactly but she would try to come close.

"Exa, I can't fully explain to you how I feel. My love for you is true. I know, in such a short period of time, that this is hard to accept. I have never felt this way about any man before you and never dreamed of feeling like this in such a short time frame. Everything about you simply makes me want to be with you."

She looked down, she had never revealed so much, so truthfully, to someone before. She was social, but personal things such as her feelings were usually kept to herself.

"I don't want to be hurt, so only tell me if you're sure of it. Is your love true as well Exa?"

She looked back at him, the only light in the room was a dimly lit lantern in the back corner. The mood was serene, and she was nervous to hear his next words.

[Zenophoenix]

Exa

"I don't want to be hurt, so only tell me if you're sure of it. Is your love true as well Exa?"

He knelt in front of her grasping her right hand within his and kissed it gently. This woman could be, no, she was everything he was looking for. Her beauty, her grace, her acceptance. All of these made her, in his eyes, the perfect woman for him.

Was his love true?

He looked into her eyes as he pondered this question. He wanted it to be true, he needed it to be true. His heart leapt at the thought of being with her. Finally, the words he wanted to speak escaped from his pursed lips.

"Andria," he stood, finding the rest of his words. "I love you so much and you, in a short time, have taken my heart sway with your beauty and grace. I promise, if you will have me that I will be there for you with all of my heart and all of my soul. You have mended my broken heart and brought light into the darkest corners of my deepest recesses of torment. I thought that I would never love again, but you have proven me wrong. No other woman could take on the task, but you, you are truly worthy of my love."

Lifting her from the chair, he embraced and kissed her even more passionately and deeply than before. His right hand caressing her blonde locks of hair, his left sliding down her back. Their lips locked in a moment of heat, desire, and bliss, his face curled into a satisfied grin as he registered her moans of pleasure and happiness. He paused for a moment, sitting down and resting her body on his lap. He had been dancing all night and hell he was needing to sit down badly. Then he continued kissing her, now caressing the sides of her slender body. He had been drenched in her sweet aroma the entire night and he never tired of it. His lips now leading a trail of desire along the sides of her neck, he continued kissing her.

The moonlight now cast a pure white glare in the room and illuminated her figure, the very detail of her beautiful dress, glistening with each passing moment. Exa never wanted this moment to end.

[Jennex]

She looked down at this handsome young man, awaiting his response to her question. She had asked for honesty and held her breath, bracing herself for whichever answer he may extend. She looked deeply into his eyes, as he began to stand.

"I promise, if you will have me that I will be there for you with all of my heart and all of my soul"

So his love was true, she was overwhelmed with joy. Words had escaped her but that didn't matter, within seconds of his noble reply he was, again, picking her up. Once more he pressed his lips to her even more fierce than before. She kissed him back, pressing her body firmly into his. He sat her down on top of him and began to kiss her neck. She placed her left hand on the back of his neck gently tugginf on the ends of his hair and whispered gently into his ear.

"I love you"

She brought his face back up to hers and kissed him again as she ran her hands down his sturdy chest to his upper thigh. She wasn't thinking about anything other than Exa and how surreal, but perfect, this all was.
