Reyn sat by a large fire, her bodyguard on one side, and Willow on the other. They had just finished a meal and were sharing stories of battles with some of the members of the tribe they were visiting. The men were in awe of their queen, she fought in battle... she hunted... and she was beautiful. When they asked her how she did all of those things she responded that she was a descendant of the Gods.

When one man laughed at her, Zu punched him in the face. "No one insults her. Now leave." Zu was taller than any other man they had come across in all of the tribes. His skin was tan from years in the sun, and he wore heavy plates of armor to protect him from both arrows and blades. He had trained with some of the best masters in all forms of combat since he was old enough to wield a weapon. Fighting and protecting others was all he had ever known. But he had a gentle side, a side he was not known to show to many other than Reyn and Willow.

Reyn smiled, "Thank you Zu" She stood and pointed at the few tribe members who happened to bring with them their drums used in ceremonies. "Play."

(Start song)

When the beat started, Reyn started to move her hips and danced in the firelight, her silk skirts moving around her legs. All who sat around the fire were mesmerized by their queen and her ability to move so gracefully. She pulled Willow up and had her join her. Zu leaned back and enjoyed watching the two dance around the fire to the light beat of the drum. As Reyn started to chant softly the fire grew brighter, Zu was amazed by the power she possessed. Every time she used her gifts, they seemed greater and greater in ability and pure strength.

Reyn's chanting grew louder and louder. " Tiesa, tiesa, ne meliņi... [līgo, līgo!]Vecu ļaužu valodiņā... [līgo, līgo!] x2Jāņu naktī meitas gājaRaganās(i), vilkacēs(i)" ( English Lyrics:Its true, Its true, there lay no lies (sway*, sway)In the old native language (sway, sway)During summer solstice night the girls become witches and werewolves)

Reyn's eye's caught Willow's and she turned to Zu, "Please make sure that I am not disturbed tonight." She grabbed Willow's hand, the two ladies walked toward the Queen's tent and Zu could hear Willow's giggle as they disappeared inside.

Zu frowned, he had not seen that newcomer yet tonight... he wondered what happened to him. He grabbed a hunk of meat that had been cooking on the fire and stood in his spot outside of Reyn's tent. From where he stood he always overheard what was happening inside the canvas walls of the Queen's tent. This only made his dreams at night more intense.

Reyn took hold of Willow's face and kissed her deeply. Willow returned the kiss, lightly biting at Reyn's lower lip. Reyn pushed her away slightly before she spun Willow around facing away from her. She playfully smacked Willow on her ass, then bit her neck. Willow leaned back into Reyn, who ran her hands around to Willow's breasts. Reyn slowly ran her hands down lower, then up under Willow's skirt...

"You are eager to please your Queen aren't you?" Reyn ran her hand up Willow's thigh, then she caught sight of the sleeping man in her bed. She let go of Willow and walked over to him. Willow felt disappointed by the sudden loss of Reyn's attention. Hunter had been very tired after all of the day's activities, Reyn had told him to lay down on her bed until she returned. She ran fingers through his hair and he woke up smiling at her.

"I am glad to see that you are not afraid of me." Reyn said softly.

"Why would I fear you? You saved me, Your Grace." Hunter said as he sat up rubbing his eyes.

Reyn looked at Willow, "You have done a good job teaching him so far Willow." Reyn returned her gaze to Hunter.  "Hunter, I overheard you tell Willow you are not new when it comes to being with a female." She waited for him to nod at her in response. "Willow, undress for me so that Hunter can show me what he knows."
