Mahnu, An Immortal's Journey

Chapter 27

King Richard kissed Mahnu's forehead, putting his fingers down her bare back and through her hair. "Are you ok?" He asked.

She was slumped against him, with her hands on his chest, "Mmm..."

He pulled her face up to make sure and let out a chuckle. Her eyes and face looked relaxed, almost like she would fall asleep. Their breathing was calm once again, but they had not moved from their last position. Their bodies were still one, but their trembling had stopped some time ago.

Having been silent all this time, as both in their own thoughts, King Richard had finally broken the silence, wanting to make sure his dearest person was okay.

"Did I tire you out?" He asked, putting her head against him again.

"...I don't ...Really know what to say or do." 'Cassandra' really didn't!

This man had completely taken her soul! She had never known that anyone could act like that! At first, she liked how it felt and just kept going, then something totally amazing took over her and it was so great that she now felt tired and completely satisfied!

What Betty had told her about a man and woman was not like this! She never said it was great! Why didn't she say it!?

King Richard chuckled again. It was the best feeling in the world. To have her here like this, in his arms, especially naked!

Suddenly, he remembered where they were, "Oh...I guess we should dress."

She put her arms around him then, holding so tight that it reminded him of that last night before she had disappeared. "Mahnu?" His voice showed his worry of the past reoccurring.

"Can we...I mean..." He heard Mahnu sigh. "For some reason, I wanted to..."
Her silence made him angry. He wanted to hear what she wanted to say!

Then, finally, she continued, "I don't remember, but when I left you that note and disappeared. I think it might have been a very hard thing for me to do...Right now, I didn't want to let you go..."

How was it that her words could touch me so much! King Richard pulled her face towards him and kissed her.

Not yet, both of them thinking, as desire rippled through them once again.

How could he let her go now! They had been separated for two years!

Laying her gently upon the small blanket, King Richard plunged himself right back into her wetness and groaned.

Slowly, he made love to her yet again, watching her desire filled eyes, feeling her wrap her legs around him and her hands hold him tight. He wouldn't be a man if he didn't do as his lady wanted!

She wanted him to hold her longer, then he will happily do so!

Marcus decided to give the command that the house be off limits till the next day. He advised Betty and Donald to follow a knight to go to an inn, so that they can eat and rest.

Marcus sighed, he thought that it had been time to leave, but when he checked last...It wasn't going to be so.

He did know that His Majesty hadn't touched anyone for the last two years and he wondered if the King was making up for lost time...It was something Marcus admitted to not understand. He had never loved a woman or lain with one. He had decided a long time ago that he wanted to make His Majesty his only priority. It wasn't rare, as many of the leaders of the Loyal Royal Knights were the most loyal to His Majesty even if they did have wife's. The problem was, he may not have an heir if he continues like this...But that didn't matter, William was a nephew and he was already willing to place the next leadership upon his head instead...
