Darkness Befell Us

Nen (narration)

I was sleeping when I felt arms pull me to a hard chest, I already knew it was Karth so I just decided to go with it I guess we will talk in the morning and I heard him whisper while stroking my hair,

"Why do you always do this Nen? Why don't you want us to share a room? When are you ever going to move into my room permanently?" he went on with the questions I pretended to stay asleep

To be honest I wanted us to be married before I moved to his room I know it is stupid because we have been together for years so sharing a room with him should not be a big deal but for me it is, and of course I loved his room it was bigger well because he is the leader of our tribe but I still wanted it to be official first

..........

I woke up in the morning to Karth kissing my neck and inhaling sharply like he was literally sniffing my neck, "Good morning beautiful," he said and kissed my neck some more, "Mmh good morning," I said turning and smiling at him, "So is everything okay in the east?" I asked as I touched his cheek, "I will talk about it after I do this," he said smiling and he turned me on my back he then disappeared under the sheets and I immediately felt my legs being pushed to my stomach and I closed my eyes as I anticipated what was going to happen.

. . . . .

"Come on lets go shower," he said carrying me to the shower and I just smiled at him. Once we reached the bathroom he put me down and turned the water on and he also got in and closed the door. I felt him rub the sponge on my back and then he reached down and started cleaning me, his other hand snaked around my waist and pulled me more to him, I got the sponge and started washing his body too putting more emphasis on some areas.

We then let the water hit us as it washed away the foam from our bodies, once the foam was off, he turned off the shower and with that he picked me up and my legs went around his waist, he then pressed me on the cold wall and kissed my forehead as he looked at me in the eyes,

"I love you Nen," he said and before I could even reply he kissed me passionately, I couldn't help but bite his lip and hold onto his neck tighter and he went on and on,

He rested his forehead on mine and in unison we both said, "I love you," and then smiled

He set me down slowly, he then turned the water back on and we cleaned ourselves some more and he reached out and grabbed a towel and put it on me, "I don't want you to get cold," he said tying a towel around his waist and pulling me out, he then picked me up and carried me bridal style back to the bedroom.

. . . . .

"So who was that yesterday, you know when you were talking to me and he called you out?" I asked him and I saw him stiffen, with that I knew something was wrong, "It was just one of the keepers," he stated trying to keep calm, well he must think I am an idiot,

"Karth let's do this one more time, who was that yesterday?" I asked with a raised eyebrow looking at him, "Do you want to go get breakfast downstairs?" he asked with a smile and I looked at him like he had two heads

"Karth I swear to God!" I almost yelled but he took few strides toward me and touched my cheek, "Nen you don't want to know who it was," he said looking at me with concern, "And how do you know that, well let's see this you can tell me and I will see if I don't want to know about it," I stated crossing my arms on my chest, "Look just tell me already don't keep anything from me please," I said looking in his eyes

"Honey you could never guess who the leader of the Karan security duty is," he said looking at me and touching my cheek, "Well who is it?" I said following him around, "It is Rik," he said turning to me and I almost screamed from the shock of my past but hoped maybe it was someone else with a similar name, "....yes Nen it is Rik my former best friend," he said and came straight at me pulling me in for a hug
