Blaze Of Glory | Kylo Ren

War Of Hearts

Kylo Ren's P.O.V.

"She goes into the integration cell when we arrive back to Base."

I command while setting down the scavenger on a table in the ship. Watching the troopers cuff her, I hear the ramp behind me close. Not long after does our ship flies off into space before more of the resistance arrives. 

Searching around the ship, I sense Ani's presences yet don't see her. Feeling my nerves rest, knowing she's done as I told her, I allow my shoulders to relax. 

Her aura seems pained in a way, but her mind is calm from what I feel in the force. Turning to one stormtrooper, I question through my helmet.

"Where is Anakia?"

"I believe she's in the armory, sir." 

Without answering back, I stride toward the weapons room confused. It's a small part of the ship; it's probably not even as big as our closet. Sliding the metal door open and walking in, I find Anakia's back to me. 

She peers over her shoulder at hearing me come in and the door shutting behind me. I take off my helmet the second I see her without hers. I find her helmet and robe on a chair, but her saber clipped to her hip. 

When our eyes reach one another, her body turns to face me. I open my mouth to speak up but before I can she takes wide steps toward me. My eyes glance over her body to check for wounds just as her hand grabs my neck. 

Her other hand brushes through my hair as her lips come up to mine. I catch my breath in surprise at her greeting. Her lips press down onto mine meaningfully, and I slip my hand from her waist to hold her lower back. 

My other hand grasps her hip as I scoot closer to her narrow frame. Tilting my head, allowing her to kiss me as she pleases, my mind grows concern of what happened when we were apart. Her small hand grips my hair harder as the other wraps around the back of my neck. 

I lean forward slightly and press her chest against mine. Ani leans back, sighing into my lips, taking comfort in my affection. Caressing her lips, I rub her back soothingly, patiently waiting for the meaning of her actions. 

Whatever the reason is; I will not back away from her welcoming. Once she separates her lips from mine; her fingers push back my hair from my cheek. Her eyes are closed while setting her forehead onto mine. 

"You were right." Anakia whispers, while rubbing her thumb against the side of my face. "... I'm not who I used to be..." Peering up into my eyes with sorrow, she licks her lips and admits. "I can't go back now- Han..."

Her eyes water and I pull her into a hug instantly. Something during the time of being apart must have proved to her that life can never go back to what it once was. I don't know what has happened or transpired, but I can't ask for her to describe it to me. 

Her expression tells me all I need to know. She doesn't seem angry or conflict, but at hurt like a child would be. Staring into her eyes, I nod slowly and let out a breath I've been holding.

"Are you alright, Anakia?" 

I say in sympathy while rising my hand on her back. She nods quickly against my chest. Letting out a shaky breath, she lifts her head to look up at me and thinks out loud while staring at my lips. 

"Yes. Yes... I- You're all I want."

Pressing my lips firmly onto her again, I hear her hum in satisfaction before bringing me closer to her small frame. Tilting my head, I deepen our kiss and start walking her backwards. Her dainty feet stumble back as she pecks my bottom lip for more.
