Ascending Legends

[BookWyrm]

"So true." Dayn looked down at Arryn before hugging her again. "We have our own house. I'm still trying to get used to this." Dayn held Arryn for a few moments before laying his head against her shoulder and closing his eyes. "Okay good night." Of course his smile said he wasn't sleeping, but he wanted to see Arryn's reaction.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn looked at him for a moment before pulling back a bit, smiling as she thought up a creative way to mess with him. She leaned in for a slow kiss, one hand running lightly from the back of his neck across this throat, while her other hand traced along his spine slowly. If he wanted to fake sleep, he could miss out on a good kiss. But a romantic like him, she was willing to bet he wouldn't want to miss out on returning a single kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

Arryn's tactics were solid. Dayn caved in right after feeling her hands touch his neck and back. He leaned into the kiss without regret and after they pulled away his smile was beaming. "You are devious. I love it." Dayn laid his head back against his pillow as he rubbed Arryn's neck. "Now that our house is built, what are we going to do with our free time?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn nuzzled against his cheek, propping her head on his shoulder so he could get at her neck easily. "Practice bladework. Cook. Cuddle - a lot. I'll teach you wireworking. And more cuddling. But let's only focus on right now, yes?" She didn't want him thinking too far ahead and worry about something.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn sighed quite heavily for a moment. He hadn't realized that he was starting to close off until Arryn had mentioned focusing on the present. He glanced over at her and smiled when he noticed her leaving her neck exposed. It was too inviting for him not to take the offer. "Thank you for catching me.", Dayn said as he nuzzled against her and kissed the back of her neck.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered, having expected him to rub her neck more. "You're welcome, love." Arryn moved a bit before settling down again, wrapping her arms around Dayn and pulling him close, maybe a bit protectively, before slowly kissing him, then nuzzling against his cheek. She lightly kissed his ear, before finally holding still and just keeping him close.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn was relaxed and comfy again. He had his eyes closed as he rested against Arryn. If he dozed off he wasn't too worried about upsetting her. He gently rubbed along her neck and upper back as they lay together, quietly humming as they enjoyed each others company.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn closed her eyes, enjoying the moment, before lightly kissing him. As she kissed him though, she lost herself in it, in the warmth, the closeness, the feeling of his lips pressed against hers. She reached out and lightly cupped his cheek with her hand, going completely on instinct and emotion at the moment, letting her control slip, even if it was only for a bit. She hadn't let herself release control so completely in years, letting her mind, body, and soul wander as they would yet remain in unison, as it should be. At one time, she'd have been scared that the illusions, the pain of the curse, would come back - and rightly so. Now, this calm, quite freedom only added to her blissful serenity as she lost herself completely in their kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn had gently responded to Arryn's kiss, though as it slowly changed Dayn wasn't taken by surprise. Just as Arryn lost herself and released her restraint, Dayn threw caution to the wind and allowed himself to slip away and into the emotion of the moment. Everything became heightened, every touch of her hand on his skin or the slightest change in pressure between their lips exploded with new found emotion and energy. One hand found itself caressing Arryn's cheek, each touch firm but gentle as he rubbed his thumb over her skin. His other hand embraced her at her side, making long, tender strokes up from her hip around to her back and the down again. Dayn had no conscious thought going into his attentions toward Arryn. Having let himself slip away and his mind, body, and soul connect freely with Arryn's they found themselves meshing together and connecting in a completely new fashion.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered, but continued the kiss, feeling the same heightened senses as Dayn. She didn't care enough to ponder on, though, as her free hand lightly caressed from his ear to his collarbone, letting her fingers stay there, tracings light circles on his skin while the hand that had been cupping his cheek moved to the back of his head, playing with his hair before lightly running over his spine. Without even meaning to, she was taking mutual advantage of their condition, but she was still mostly focused on their kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

At every touch of Arryn's hand or gentle brush of her fingers Dayn broke out in goosebumps and shivers. He let his focus wander over each sensation as they happened, each touch or kiss a note played together in this symphony of the heart. Such focus and dedication seemed to drive each motion, but in truth it was nothing more than pure love for one another that fueled their actions. Expression of passion in it's most pure, unadulterated form, being poured out from one to the other. This was romance in how it was meant to be, sacred and pure. Dayn found himself moving slightly, his lips now along Arryn's jaw, but he did not stop himself. No, he allowed the moment to drive his actions, he was just here to drink deep of his share, his portion in this most pure well of love.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered, gasping a bit as his lips left hers and moved to her jaw. She wanted to continue kissing him, but this felt fantastic, each touch renewing the sensations completely. Her hand ran lightly along his spine, slowly tracing over his ribs before returning to his neck and running back down, her other hand tracing his collarbone.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt his body go weak as Arryn's fingers brushed over his ribs and over his collarbone. He gasped quietly, his face resting against her neck as he shivered in ecstasy. Slowly he managed to bring his lips back to Arryn's, though with each pass down his spine, across his ribs, or over his throat Dayn would shiver and pull back ever so slightly from Arryn's lips. His hands continued to caress and trace around her neck, ears, back, sides, and every now and then he would let his hand gently brush along her leg and thigh as he moved between her lips, jaw, cheek, and neck.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn was shivering uncontrollably, her heart nearly racing. She moved her hands behind his head, drawing him into another slow, passionate kiss, preventing him from pulling back any more as he shivered. Her thumbs traced behind his ears and across his temples slowly. The only coherent thought she could form was, Mine.

 

[BookWyrm]

Even if he could have Dayn wouldn't have pulled away from Arryn's lips this time. It was the final expression, the resolution of all everything else, and he wasn't going to miss it for the world. His hands gently pressed against Arryn's cheeks, his fingers tracing over and behind her ears and brushing lightly around the back of her neck as the kissed each other. Ever so slowly they calmed down, and when their lips finally parted for the last time Dayn let his head rest against Arryn's neck. For several minutes he didn't speak, instead just enjoying the quiet intimacy of the moment as he held Arryn.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn wrapped her arms around Dayn, tucking her head down against his. Mine. She caught herself as she began to take control again, deciding it was best to just stay relaxed and free. She moved one of her hands a bit to lightly play with his hair, more for her own enjoyment than anything.

 

[BookWyrm]

"Mm." Dayn smiled as he felt Arryn playing with his hair. He gave her a quick kiss under her jaw before nuzzling against her neck again. His right hand found a few stray locks of Arryn's hair and he started to twist and play with it, tangling his fingers and brushing them through it gently.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and adjusted her position so she could nuzzle against his cheek but still hold him close. She pulled up the blankets a bit, not wanting him to get chilled. Finally she pressed her forehead against his, enjoying the closeness.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled as he and Arryn pressed their foreheads together. It was an intimate gesture that he loved, and Arryn seemed to enjoy it as well. Dayn gently wrapped his arms around Arryn's neck. "Yr ydych yn anhygoel."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn giggled a bit, then said, "Níl A fhios agam cad a chiallaíonn go bhfuil, ach a ghlacadh mé é mar chomhlánú ar, mo chroi."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled before kissing Arryn's neck rather lavishly. "One of these days we are going to need to learn our respective languages."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shuddered a bit. "Maybe so." she put her arms around his neck, getting comfortable.

 

[BookWyrm]

"You are amazing.", Dayn said as he rested his head against Arryn's arm. He looked up at her with his shy smile, his eyes playing over her skin happily as he drank in her beauty.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn nuzzled against his cheek for a moment. "And you are fantastic. So we make quite the pair."

 

[BookWyrm]

"I've always thought so.", Dayn said as he lazily brushed his fingers up and down Arryn's arm. His eyes held a slightly icy blue glint to them as he looked at her. He knew she hadn't wanted him to shift, but this was more or less just him being comfortable at the moment. Little did he know that his lycanthropy was maturing. It didn't mean that he would be stuck partially or completely wolfed, but it did mean that it was settling into his system better.
