Ascending Legends

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt the movement, opening his eye just slightly enough to see Arryn exposing her neck more. He took the hint and made his way down, moving one hand to gently hold her neck while the other continued to rub around and behind her ear.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shuddered, almost to the point that breathing was becoming difficult. She wrapped her arms around Dayn, he fingertips lightly tracing along his spine.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn eased off slightly both in an effort to let Arryn breath and out of surprise. When Arryn had traced along his spine he had arched his back, pushing his chest up against Arryn as the goosebumps spread over him. When he'd regained focus again Dayn had started to kiss along Arryn's neck again, perhaps a little more gentle this time, before placing both hands on either side of her head and rubbing his thumbs around, behind, and over her ears as he continued to kiss along her throat.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn closed her eyes, sighing heavily as she could only focus on Dayn's movements. She was starting to have trouble sitting up straight - as that required some control - but she didn't want Dayn to stop.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn continued further, though he felt Arryn starting to get very relaxed. Finally he moved up and pulled her into a kiss that was just as passionate as the one she had given to him, his thumbs still rubbing her ears during the kiss. Once he pulled away he gently pulled her into his arms as he laid back, letting her rest against his chest. He loved how relaxed she got after they played their little game. He smiled as he continued to rub behind her ears. Their game was always fun no matter which end you were on, but he had to admit that the cuddling that came afterwards was always nice.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn nuzzled weakly against Dayn's chest, still enjoying the feeling of his rubbing her ears. She wrapped her arms around his neck as she laid against him, before sighing, "Whatever you were doing a few moments ago, I think you've found the winning move of the shudder game."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Good, I'll remember that for next time." Dayn leaned down to kiss Arryn's cheek before laying back. He moved his left hand and laid it against her back, but he kept his right hand against her head as he slowly rubbed her ear. "Now you just need to find one and we will be set."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn rolled her eyes and propped herself up on her elbows, kissing slowly from his jaw, across and down his neck, her fingers playing lightly across his throat. After a few seconds of that, she laid against his chest again.

 

[BookWyrm]

"I didn't mean right now love, but I appreciate it nonetheless." Dayn had managed to keep his spirits up. He laughed lightly before kissing Arryn's forehead. "Besides, I saw that eye roll."

 

[Dragongal]

"Aw, I thought I had the one there. Damn. Just have to experiment later. But right now, you need rest." Arryn nestled her head under Dayn's chin. Her heart was only now returning to its proper pace.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn's heart had actually quickened it's pace when Arryn had started in, but since she was offering to return and experiment at a later date Dayn kept that to himself. "Rest I can do, especially with you here with me."

 

[Dragongal]

"Good. Then rest." Arryn took his hand in hers like she was beginning to make a habit of, and pulled the blankets up over them more, before closing her eyes.

 

[BookWyrm]

"Alright love." Dayn gave one last kiss before laying back and dozing off.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn stayed awake a while longer, thinking over everything, before following Dayn's lead and falling asleep.

 

[BookWyrm]

"You didn't tell me you and Alistair had become drinking buddies." The White Wolf chuckled. What gave you the idea that we were? "Alistair found out about the wedding." Ah. Well I didn't know until Lleuna told me. And, to answer your question, yes. Alistair and I formed a decent relationship while working together. Dayn shook his head before laughing. "I am honestly surprised by just how exhausted I am." I told you the trial would be difficult. But.. "I know, the reward will be worth it. What is the reward anyway?" Just wait until you shift again. Dayn looked down at himself and realized that he was indeed not a wolf. "I didn't realize I hadn't shifted." Just rest Dayn. If Arryn knew you were here she'd come after me, and I'd rather not have to deal with her in a bad mood. "Alright. Until next time."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn was shifting about, holding his hand tightly to her chest as a bad Dream troubled her mind. It wasn't a very clear dream, but it involved the skinchanger, and the hubter, and a lot of blood....

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt something trouble him in his sleep and woke up to find Arryn shifting about. He leaned down and kissed her forehead, gently running his thumb over her cheek to wake her up.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn pressed her cheek into his hand as she woke up. When she opened her eyes, she looked him over, making sure he was okay.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled and held Arryn close against him. "Are you okay?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn looked at his hand, still clutched to her chest, and looked at his palm, running her finger over the sacr, before looking back up at him and rubbing her thumb over where the fracture in his jaw had been.she leaned against him again and nuzzled against him. "Yeah, I am now."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn frowned. He recognized the areas she was paying attention to and wondered why she was thinking over them. He laid his hand under her chin and lifted her head up slightly. "Arryn, love, what's the matter?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shrugged abit, nuzzling against his hand. "Nothing. Just a bad dream. Wanted to make sure you were okay." She didn't know why she was having such nightmares, but she wasn't concerned over it.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn hated that Arryn was having these nightmares here recently, though the good news was these were just normal nightmares and not part of the curse. He gently rubbed behind her ear as he thought about how to make her more comfortable. "Can I do anything to make you more comfortable? Do you want me to shift?"

 

[Dragongal]

"Nah. Just... be here, that's all I want." Arryn let go of his hand and put her arms around his neck, getting comfortable.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn wrapped his own arms under Arryn's before leaning down to kiss her lips gently. "Here I will be. Always. Now get some rest love."
