Old Vows, Young Lovers

Hearts On Fire

A few hours later, around midnight. In the Moon Mansion.

Artemis and Percy settle in for the night in their bedroom; it has been a long day. So much has happened today, but it has all been exhausting. They had gotten to have Venison steaks for dinner because Alissa went hunting earlier in the day... Atalanta took the Eye of Round to make Venison Jerky, naturally, but there wasn't enough to go around; Alissa had only shot two deer, and Percy had given his up to one of the younger huntresses out of the kindness of his heart. Artemis noticed this, of course, and she vowed that she would greatly reward him for it.

When they get to their room, Percy goes into the bathroom to shave, brush his teeth, and take a shower before they retire to bed. Artemis walks over to their bed and strips out of her hunter's garb, leaving her in just her underclothes. She changes into the sexy and erotic lacey blue lingerie she always wears for Percy. She's made it a habit and a rule to generally always let her hair down and wear her lingerie (or less) when they are alone. She even puts on the stockings for Percy, making her look insanely hot in the tight blue outfit. Her stockings are really hot and come up to mid thigh, and her panties are tight and contour her ass insanely well in a lacey V. This also makes for a very prominent target when Percy spanks her... Aphrodite made sure to give her an outfit fit for a submissive girl like her. She then sits down on the lip of the bed, and she reaches over to her nightstand to grab her book to wait for him to come take her.

Percy:

Percy stays in the bathroom for almost half an hour. He takes an abnormally long shower, and he doesn't even dare to invite Artemis to join him this time... Even though he would extraordinarily enjoy it. Having sex in the shower is by far his #1 favorite place to make love to Artemis because the water gives him strength. His erection gets a little bigger, he lasts twice to three times as long, and his orgasm is greatly intensified. On the other hand, even though she always loves to do what makes him the happiest, it is still something that Artemis doesn't like nearly as much. It's just a little too intense for her, and it's the only time she ever says no to sex, regardless of her promise; however, it's only because of the way he words it. He has always just asked her if she would like to join him in the shower... If he told her he wants to make love in the shower, or suggested they do it in the shower... She would always agree then. But the real reason he takes such a long shower this time and takes his time shaving and brushing his teeth is because he wants to give Artemis some time to cool off. Their relationship has been on pretty shaky ground today.

Half an hour later:

Artemis closes her book as she hears the sound of Percy spitting out his toothpaste into the sink, signifying that he is almost done and is about to come out of the bathroom. She gets up from the bed and positions herself, classically, in front of the mirror and begins to methodically start brushing out the knots. The sharp pain of the knotting in her locks has no effect on her sex drive, contrary to when Percy does it...

She suddenly hears the sound of the bathroom door opening and pretends that she is deep in thought. Percy emerges from the bathroom, smelling like lavender, wearing only his boxers and nothing else. She has gotten to the point where she usually doesn't blush when she sees his perfect physique, but it still is distracting and still melts her resolve. Percy is only slightly taller than her, but he is stronger and more well built. She finds his physique to be quite appealing and attractive, a distinct turn-on. Percy is everything she always wished men were... Strong, pure, compassionate and respectful, gentle and loving towards women, always composed and driven. He is near as perfect as one can be in her eyes, and it's why she loves him, and why she gave him her virginity what feels like ages ago... Best decision of her life.
