Pharaoh's First Love

86

“Well, I’m in no rush, we can simply have a pleasant evening together, even if it means getting to watch you dress up and consequently undress before me~” He winked playfully before turning his head towards the knocking on his door.
“I’ll be right back, love. Maybe it’s Amarie.” Calion said, leaving Shelyn for the moment and walking across the living room before opening up the door in some surprise.
“Aoi, not often I find you knocking on my door at such an hour. Everything okay?” Calion asked, his eyes studying his brother and the ‘dress’ that the male wore. It’s not like Calion ever disapproved of how Aoi wanted to dress.
Shelyn slowly got out of bed when he left her. Thinking to herself about how silly this man was tonight. She pulled on the dress she tossed to the floor. After adjusting she too exited the bed chamber and entering the living room. She found Calion at the door talking to a woman and a stack of dresses on one of the chairs.
She opted to look through the dresses.

Aoi pouted a little. "Yes I came to pay my respect to the herbalist girl. I knew my soldier had a sister but I never suspected it to be the herbalist." He explained. Aoi was often very calm tempered. Compared to Yun he was very polite and understood personal space. "Aren’t you going to let me in? I came all this way after all"
“That’s kind of you.” Calion said, knowing his brother often hung around soldiers for reasons… he didn’t think too deeply about, although he didn’t know just how close Aoi had been with Helm. All the same he didn’t see the harm, although he did want to try and avoid Shelyn getting upset. “Certainly, brother, would you like me to fetch you something to drink or will you be leaving shortly?” Calion asked, standing aside to invite Aoi in as Calion could see through the dimly lit room that Shelyn’s frame was off inspecting some dresses.
Shutting the door after Aoi Calion walked with him and spoke to Shelyn. “This here is a relative of mine, Aoi, I’m not sure if you two have ever met.” He avoided saying ‘brother’ as he would leave it up to Aoi to confess to his gender.
Aoi smiled stepping in. "Green tea sounds wonderful." He replied as he followed Calion over to Shelyn.
His eyes looked the young get over. From that full bodied blonde hair to the unflattering, in his thoughts, dress that hid the rest of her body from him. Her face simple, of course makeupless. Common. She wasn’t very pretty. At least when compared to Helm. But to Aoi no one was.
Shelyn looked to Calion and smiled. Then to Aoi before setting the clothes aside and giving Aoi a soft nod. "Good evening.." she replied.
Aoi sat upon one of the couches. "I expected you to have his snow white hair. How unfortunate. Do you not being a woman?"
Shelyn blinked confused. "I am...sorry?"
