After a good night's sleep, Ben opened his eyes and found himself facing his partner's bright eyes. What a joy to be able to meet those azure eyes on waking! He had secretly dreamed of this moment throughout the previous two months, not knowing if he would ever see her again. And today, there they were, lying in this bed, still naked after their wild night, a few rays of sunlight warming the soft sheets in which they had built a bridge between earth and heaven.

"Good morning, my love," the Queen murmured as she rolled close to him to place a kiss on his lips. "Sleep well?"

Her eyes were still staring at his face, her fingers gently caressing his chest, which was covered with a few scattered hairs. She couldn't help but bury her face in his neck to inhale the manly, chypre scent he was giving off. With him, in his arms, this place that had been waiting for her for so long, she definitely felt at home.
Luna was a very cuddly woman, which suited this rather sensitive man in search of affection. However, before they met in the greenhouse, she had portrayed this image of a rather cold and authoritarian woman, especially with her daughter, and cruelly lacking in empathy. But Ben had discovered the real Luna, an absolutely kind fairy, the one almost nobody knew.
Aware of their happiness, he wrapped his right arm around her and softly kissed her shoulder. A gasp of pleasure came from her mouth and she moved her hand up to his ear, with which she played teasingly.

"It's been a long time since I had such a good night, with you, everything is magic," he answered, running his hand over her cheek, already wistful. "If only all nights could be the same..."

He knew that this moment was only an enchanted parenthesis, and that the next day he would wake up alone in his bed, at Alfea. He would have loved to spend all his free time with her, but it was not possible, they would have to go back to their own lives, and the separation would be painful.

"It would be a pity, there would be no surprise," she replied in a pained voice.

He smiled at her, amused by her remark. She was right, a life full of surprises is so much more exciting than the daily routine, however pleasant it may be.

"So is lazing around in this bed all day waiting to go back to the Other World, darling," he retorted before taking her by the hand to get up. "Shall we go for a swim?"

She nodded as she leapt out of the sheets, excited.

"Oh yes, just let me get my swimwear on," she agreed, rushing to her overnight bag on the chair.

Now, as she looked for her two-piece, nothing was concealing her burned body anymore, clearly visible in the daylight.
As he pulled on his bathing trunks, the botany professor couldn't help but scan her from head to toe with kindness and love. Now he could see all the details of the scars on this unique woman whom he considered the most beautiful in the world.
His smile widened. She was indeed a wonderful creature, who had regained her confidence and dared to reveal herself. How proud he was of the queen of his heart! In the last two days, she had taught him not to regret the past, with her resilience.
Without her having to ask, he deftly tied her sky-blue crocheted triangle bra in her back.

"You look hot without this," he admitted before sliding his lips along her most prominent scar, his hands encircling her flat stomach.

She let out a soft moan as she arched her back, her hands resting naturally on those of the man she was in love with. The effect he was having on her was indescribably exquisite and she could have stayed for hours skin to skin with him.
But suddenly he put one arm under her shoulder blades, the other in the hollow of her knees, and lifted her up before leaving the hut. He carried her, walking quickly on the pontoon, before jumping into the turquoise water of the lagoon, under the sun already high in the sky.
The light fairy gave a cry of surprise and happiness. The tepid water was getting to her chin and he had not let go.

"Ben! You startled me!" she exclaimed, laughing.

He continued to hold her tenderly in his arms, getting lost in her irises. They were the same color as the lagoon.

"I thought my beloved liked surprises," he teased her with an astonished look.

With her arms around his neck, she moved closer to his ear to confirm her confidence in him.

"I love it when you thrill me," she whispered sweetly.

From this fairy emanated such a light, she was the sun of his universe, and he did not deprive himself of covering her with kisses, until she emitted a plaintive groan.
At that moment, he noticed with horror that her scars were turning a reddish hue under the effect of the sun and the sea salt.

"Shit, we need to get out of the water before you turn as red as a crayfish," he muttered, carrying her towards the beach. "I know a place close enough to here where we'll be better off."

Too busy fighting the pain that was eating away at her skin, his partner asked no questions, and he led her into the forest to protect her from the sun.
As they went deeper into the vegetation, a sound like flowing water came closer and closer. Soon they arrived near a natural freshwater pool, fed by a small waterfall, surrounded by lush vegetation. Here, not a ray of burning sunlight to further bruise the Queen's skin.

"Here is our little piece of paradise, my blossom," he announced as he entered the pond, carrying her firmly.

Immediately, on contact with the cool, soft water, the pain faded.

"Mmmm, that's so good, my love, thank you," she rejoiced, snuggling against his chest. "This place is extraordinarily romantic."

She, who loved exotic gardens, had something to look forward to, and Ben knew it.
He placed a kiss on her forehead, gently running his fingers down her spine to the elastic of her panties. She wanted so badly for him to take them off and give him access to her femininity. This place was perfect for a cuddle session.

"Are you feeling better now?" he questioned, concerned.

She clinged to him a little more, her hands on his hips, reveling in his hot breath, burning with desire.

"Couldn't be better," she reassured him with intensity.

Eager to become one with her, he grabbed her ass with a grunt, forcing her closer still. Feeling all his desire for her press against her intimacy, she undulated the pelvis, moaning, her lips pampering those of her man, ready to welcome him deep inside her body.
He pulled back slightly as he kept kissing her, with this furious desire to finally possess her. He could not wait to see her quiver and shudder like last night, and he would finally see every one of her reactions in the light of day.
His fairy saw that his swimming trunks were floating on the surface, and she immediately took hers off as well. The time had come for them to love each other, to give all their soul to each other, to unite.
And suddenly, without ever ceasing to kiss his beloved woman, Ben slipped into her, appreciating her warmth, still amazed at their compatibility. As soon as she felt him inside her, Luna let out a gasp of relief, her legs shaking. He was unlocking something inside her. For the first time, she was no longer trying to control her entire world, but to let herself enjoy the pleasures of love with the man who had eyes only for her.
