Lexa's POV

I wake up next to a naked Clarke by my side. It was a hot morning and we must've stopped spooning in the middle of the night, but we're still holding hands. I get up to use the bathroom and wash my face. I need to talk to King Roan today to make sure Azgeda doesn't have the intention to break the alliance. I close my eyes to appreciate everything that has been happening the last months. The Ice Queen using someone close to Clarke to affect her leadership of the Skaikru, everything that Allyson did, Clarke being attacked... I shiver when my mind goes to those moments. The despair and anger I felt. There was no middle ground: I was either worrying sick about my Skai Princess or planning to kill the monster who hurt her. And finnaly I had the chance to. But since Clarke was well again, I made the decision to give the kill to her, satisfying myself with ending the life of the woman who made my life a hundred times more difficult the last couple of years.

Suddenly, I feel someone approach me from behind. I open my eyes slightly and realize it is the blue eyed girl, relaxing intantly.

"Who do you thought I was?" Her voice was raspy. I turn to her to give her a kiss and she pushes me away. "Morning breath..." She whispers.

"I think we're a little pass that, princess." I chuckled and she follows right after. So I lean again and this time she complies. It wasn't a deep kiss but it still made my blood run. I stepped away because I didn't want to push too far. Things weren't a hundred percent between us, yet. "We should get dressed. I still have to talk to the new king."

"I like you better without clothes but I wouldn't want anyone to see you naked." She laughs.

"I know, I have a real advantage in that department." I give her a small peck and start to walk towards the shower. The water starts running and I get under it. It's cold at first but it starts to warm up quickly. My body doesn't move under the stream and I feel Clarke's hands on my waist. She starts kissing the crook of my neck slowly. This woman is going to be the death of me. I turn around and start kissing her as passionately as I can and I could feel her relaxing under my touch. My hands are on her waist with just my thumb barely moving. She wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled me to her. I could feel her body pressed against mine and the slightly cold water makes everything more vivid. I start kissing towards her neck slowly to make sure I'm not doing anything she doesn't want to. Since her attack, her neck isn't her favourite place to be touched specially her scar. So I try to be as far away from it as possible. But now I want to kiss all of her. Scars and all. So I make sure to go slow. As soon as I get remotely close, she start to pull away. So I do it first. Disconnecting my lips completely from her and looking into her eyes. She closes them and I start to see a tear running down her face. I place my hands on her cheeks. "Skai Princess, " I whisper to her."Open your eyes please." I waited a little bit for her to do so. When she did, I saw the pain in them.

"I'm sorry" she says.

"Don't be. It's okay..." She keeps crying.

"But it's not. You have absolutely no fault of what happened to me and now you have to pay for it. I mean, I know you want to kiss me there, I feel it every time. And you have no idea how much I appreciate that you haven't yet because I wouldn't know how to react. Because not even I like to touch my neck. I can't stand it anymore... And I hate it! I hate it so much. Because I want to feel you everywhere but I can't do it." I let her get it off her chest because we haven't really talked about this yet and honestly I wanted to know why I always felt her scar became a forbidden place to touch. But seeing her with as much pain and even struggling with her word as she was, made me want to revive that monster just so I could kill her myself.

"Clarke, it IS okay... I know you're not okay with it yet and it doesn't bother me at all. I don't want to do anything if I know it is going to make you feel uncomfortable. Whatever it is. What that monster did to you is unforgivable. But you got your revenge. You were the one who took her life. It was your hands holding the sword that took her life!" The girl started having a little fire in her eyes, so Lexa made a quick pause to appreciate it. "But don't worry. Now the Queen of Azgeda is gone and Ronan will take charge. In fact, I need to talk to him now and after that, I'll head to training for a little bit. Do you want to stay here or should I send someone to warn you when I leaving for the field?"
