Love Guardians Part 3: Dark Love

A Dark Future

I woke up with (_your name_) laying beside me, her face on my bare chest. I stroked her hair as she snuggled up to me. I stared at her closed eyes as she breathed deeply. Her bare thigh lightly rubbed against my bare thigh.

I kissed her forehead as I sat up. She sat up beside me, slowly tracing my chest.

"Pitch, I feel different." She locked her eyes with mine. "What was in that drink?"

"Some magic to let you live forever," I took her hand and placed it on my chest, "with me."

She looked at me with wide eyes. "And you weren't going to tell me before I drank it?"

"I was actually going to ask you and leave you the choice of drinking it, but then I remembered who I was." My eyes lowered. "I didn't want you away from me. I wanted you with me, to be my queen forever, not temporarily."

(_your name_) kissed my cheek. "It's all right. I want to be with you forever, I just want to know why I feel..."

"Dark," I whispered, looking at her with heavy eyes.

She smiled, placing her hand on my face. "I like it."

I smiled at her.

"After all, what's a Nightmare Queen without a little darkness?"

I cupped her head and kissed her, rolling onto her. I smothered her with kisses, every inch of my bare skin smothering every inch of her. She raked my hair as I kissed her neck and caressed her skin. I smothered my face against her cheek. Kissing it as I breathed deeply.

She stroked my hair and neck, smothering her face against mine. "When do I get to see our kingdom?"

I smiled with closed eyes. "Right now, if you wish."

"I do," she whispered.

"We should get dressed then." I grinned, my eyes still closed as I tightened my arms around her sitting up. I kissed her forehead before she got dressed.

After we got ready, I raised a shadow, holding a hand out to (_your name_).  She took hold of my hand and I kissed it as we stepped through the shadow.

She looked all around the darkness around her, smiling. The fearlings circled her, taking long looks at their new queen. (_your name_) smiled a fierce smile at them, and continued looking around, seeing nightmares form. Everyone bowed to her as she took a step forward, and they did not rise until she passed them.

She twirled around laughing, wrapping her arms around me. "I love it!" She kissed me and buried her faced into my chest. "I love you, Pitch."

I lifted up her chin. "I love you, (_your name_)." I kissed her gently.

"What are we going to do first?" She grinned, looking around.

I smiled. "I'm afraid that we won't be doing much for a while. The guardians know about my return, so I can't really do much."

"Someone help! Please!" 

I looked around for Cupid, but she was nowhere in sight.

"Pitch? What is it?" (_your name_) placed her hand on my cheek.

"Cupid is afraid... of losing Jack."

"What?"

I grinned. "I'm going to crush her light. Would you like to watch?"

She nodded, and I took her to my old lair, in one of the shadows far from Cupid.

"Stay here," I whispered to (_your name_). I used a shadow to get behind Cupid and watched what she was doing.
