Revelations

The couple returned to their hotel.  Roy forwarded their contact list to Cyborg and reported their progress to Nightwing as Raven took her shower. It was a long day so they decided to have an early dinner at one of the hotel's restaurant, a Michelin three star restaurant.

Raven was getting dressed in one of the cocktail dresses they bought earlier when Roy came out of the bathroom in a towel, and nothing else. Raven gawked. His glistening damp skin highlighted his toned abdomen, muscular arms and chiseled jawline. Roy noticed Raven's reaction and smiled, pleased with himself.

"You obviously like what you see," commented Roy with a smirk.

"Well, considering you came out wrapped in a tiny hand towel and not a bath towel, I think you did that on purpose," retorted Raven.

"So what if I did? Judging from your considerable appreciation of my physique, it clearly worked," responded Roy, smugly.

"I, umm...barely noticed you," suggested Raven, blushing slightly.

"Rae, you were drooling," stated Roy, grinning. He clearly enjoyed making Raven uncomfortable.

Raven blushed deeply. In a desperate attempt to change the topic and to clear the electrically charged atmosphere, she turned around to face the mirror and starting applying her makeup while saying," You had better get dressed, our reservation at the restaurant is in fifteen minutes."

Roy smiled, threw the towel on the couch and proceeded to get dressed right beside her. Raven's face was still a bright shade of red when she adverted her eyes from the mirror where she could see Roy changing in all his (naked) glory. So she studied her lipstick instead and returned to look at the mirror when she heard him zipping his pants.

Raven finished her makeup and took a quick survey at the mirror. She wore a low-cut bordeaux colored silk dress, embroidered with bronze crystal and lace that ended at mid-thigh. With her six inch heels, the effect made her legs incredibly long. Roy saw her and commented," You look amazing."

"Thank you," replied Raven.

"I have something for you that would complete the look," said Roy as he reached into his coat pocket and withdrew a rectangular velvet box. He removed a long white platinum chain with a large heart shaped ruby pendant pierced with a platinum arrow. On the arrow's tip was a white diamond. He stood behind her to fasten the necklace and brushed his lips against her neck. Raven flinched slightly.

"It's perfect," she whispered, as she gently fingered the pendant that hung right above her cleavage.

"Well, we are still in our honeymoon phase, so of course I have to shower my beautiful wife with gifts and displays of affection," as he kissed her neck.

Raven turned around to face him. "Who would have thought that you would be such a romantic? Shouldn't you save all this attention when we are in public? There is no one here you have to convince that we are a couple," stated Raven.

"On the contrary, there is someone I have to convince," replied Roy in a barely audible husky voice. He reached out and enclosed her in a powerful embrace. At the same time his lips sought hers with hunger and desperation. The kiss was passionate. It was intense. When Roy deepened the kiss, Raven whimpered and responded with the same fervor and their tongues explored, danced and battled.

Roy reached down and picked up Raven, not breaking their kiss. He placed her on the bed and climbed on top of her. His hands explored and caressed her body, sending shivers down her spine. Roy broke the kiss and started nipping her neck. Raven moaned. Her hands wrapped his neck and ruffled his hair. Using his tongue and lips he started exploring down her neck, eventually stopped at her breasts. He cupped one of her breast before sliding underneath the dress to push aside the fabric to reveal her full breast. Roy groaned. "You are so beautiful," he whispered before licking and sucking her nipple while groping her other breast. He was hard, his desires throbbing as he shifted between Raven's legs.
