Lance leans down and kisses Leann, and when she kisses him back he repositions them so that she is under him. As he continues her moans are what wakes her. "Lance, shouldn't we do this in a more private location?"

Lance breaks off what he's doing and looks at her, "Do you want to continue?" His eyes have a strange light in them that is more than a little hypnotizing.

Leann smiles and caresses his face, "I've told you before that my wants have little to do with anything. But isn't it getting late? Doesn't the court convene soon?" Leann asks, she'd lost track of time once she fell asleep.

"We have time if you wish Leann," Lance smiles and the fires in his eyes grow brighter yet. Leann finds herself lost in his gaze as he continues his seduction.

"Stop, Lance, now is not the time." Leann says her voice far more firm than she'd dared hope it would be. "How much time before the court convene's?"

"About half an hour. You should wear your best clothes to the court. They are rather formal like that." Lance says getting back up so that Leann could sit up.

"I don't have anything nicer than this." Leann says she's just wearing some comfortable jeans and an oversize t-shirt. Neither had noticed that they had an audience.

"I have something that would work if you don't mind borrowing my clothes?," Verruca says managing to pull her face into a blank look when all she wants to do is gape at Leann. She would never have believed it if she hadn't seen it. Lance had been in full seduction mode and Leann had told him to stop. And she'd done it in a tone of irritation at that. With as powerful as Lance is there should have been no way for Leann to do that. The more she's around Leann the more she's amazed by her abilities.

"If you have something that will even come close to fitting I would be very thankful. I wouldn't want to embarrass Lance or Jim at the court." Leann says blushing lightly.

Lance looks at Verruca who is giving him a look, "I'll be right back Leann. I need to talk to Verruca before the court."

"What is it Verruca? As Leann has so forcefully said time is short here." Lance is more than a bit frustrated and it is very evident.

"Calm yourself demon. And I don't just mean emotionally. What the hell just happened in there?" Verruca demands in her shock or she'd never have done anything like that. It's rude to demand answers when you are a guest.

"That was Leann, being Leann. Damn that woman can shake off the strongest of my spells. No one has ever managed to say no to me, especially with attitude when I'm like I was. Kira merely had to look at me for a second and I had her in my control and I wasn't even trying."

"She is a good bond mate for you Lance. Far more of an equal than your last one." Verruca says absently.

"I didn't think you were that old Verruca." Lance says with a raised eyebrow.

"Mmm, yeah, just about to reach my majority when the treaty was signed. I was there, I don't think I've ever seen anybody so underwhelmed by a ceremony before."

"I would appreciate it if you would not talk to her about things of my past, Verruca. She needs to learn to trust me enough to come to me about any questions she might have."

"Has she not then? I thought that's what she was doing after you so elegantly dismissed me from the room." Verruca's sarcasm is as thick as honey but nowhere near as sweet.

"She isn't a topic I'll discuss with you further." Lance says angrily and leaves the hall and goes to his room to prepare. He may have told Leann they had time, but it's best if they aren't late. Especially since they are the complainants.
