Chapter 14 - UNCUT

I walked to his room.  He would be frantic, I was late.  He was.  I spent most of the afternoon complying to his raw desires.  But my mind was elsewhere.  Could I really trust Percy?  The King had made it very clear what would happen if he tried to escape.  He wasn’t escaping I was effectively kidnapping him away from me.  I was betraying him.  That hurt.  Would Percy hand him over to the King?  Did Percy have his own agenda?  Well he was right about one thing, this couldn’t go on.  I had to do something. 

When I was pulled from his grasp I went to see Douglas. 

Douglas smiled and answered my questions. 

“I think you should do what Percy suggests,” he said unprompted.  “Percy asked me many the same questions but not so directly and never in the same conversation.  You can trust him, he is not the King’s man and he... well not so much loves you but certainly respects you.” We smiled at each other.

I made my preparations before returning to him.  This time I wasn’t late and he wasn’t so desperate.  I kissed him and tried to remember how much I loved him.  He sulked when I left and told me that I probably had better things to do than be with him.

I braced myself for this evening.  I wanted him to forget all the angst and make love to me once more this evening. 

Once the initial frenzy of release was over he took me to secure me in the harness.

“You have lost all your gifts haven’t you,” I said off hand.

“What?” he stopped and looked at me.

“Well you are hardly the worlds greatest lover any more are you?  You haven’t lifted a sword in months and well ... it’s shrunk.” I shrugged, “that is why you need the harness.”

“What?” he looked at me with wide frighten eyes and withdrew from me to look at himself, I smothered the smile.

“See, if you didn’t have the harness you wouldn’t be able to stay in me.  Maybe the magic is wearing off.”  I looked uninterested and sighed, “I do miss the love making though, you used to be good at that.”

“What?”

“When was the last time I called your name in passion, can you even remember?  Maybe I should ask when the last time you noticed me when you released?”

“But...but... you did... you aren’t...?”  he looked crushed.

“I wonder what you will be like when you are just a man with simple worldly needs.  I wonder if you will be so selfish with your ten minutes of fucking as you are with your 10 hours...”

He turned to me his eyes looking hurt, “Selfish?”

“I just think that you don’t love me any more.  Do you love me?

“Yes,” he whispered, “but I am not worthy.”

“Make love to me as a man and show me you are worthy.  You gift is gone, don’t try to pretend you still have it, accept it and become my man.  I don’t want a pretender, a fraud, I want Jonathan to make me scream his name.  I want Jonathan to make me his woman and know that it is his child inside me.  I want Jonathan to slay Torc and take his place in my...”

His lips were over mine and we were pulling each other, no into sex but into our kiss, our arms found each other and my skin pressed against his.  We kissed for the longest I have ever kissed him without the thrust.
