Ascending Legends

[BookWyrm]

Dayn allowed Arryn to lead him into the kitchen, though he turned her hands loose once they had entered so he could tend to the mead. After setting out two mugs he carefully opened the bottle and poured, filling each mug before corking the bottle once more. He turned to his wife and presented her a mug as he flashed a sly smile.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled widely and accepted the mug with a smile. She took a long drink before leaning against him, even though they were both standing. She knew he'd support her.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn supported Arryn with ease, wrapping one arm around her as he rubbed her lower back. "It's hard to focus on the mead with you leaning against me you know." He hid his smile behind his mug as he took another sip. Anticipation was building for sure, but he liked how they were both taking their time in a playful manner.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn arched her back a bit in response. She finished her mead and set it on the counter before leaning against him more heavily, just to see his response.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn finished off his mead about the time Arryn did, and he just managed to get focused on her when she decided to lean against him completely. Dayn let her fall into his arms before leaning in and kissing her passionately as they embraced. His one hand remained against her back, the other moved up to tangle in her hair.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn closed her eyes and reached out to tangle her own fingers in his hair. When they finally pulled apart, she wrapped her arms around his neck. "Not what I expected, but quite enjoyable.

 

[BookWyrm]

"I like to keep you guessing." Dayn ran his fingers down Arryn's cheek and across her throat, stopping at the hollow of her neck before letting his hand flow downwards some. His pupils dilated as a mischievous smirk crossed his face as he leaned in close and kissed her again. As he pulled back he gently nibbled her lower lip.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn pulled away just enough to nuzzle against his neck. "Let's get out of these formal clothes, dear. Mind helping me out of this dress?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"I don't mind at all.", Dayn said as he walked behind Arryn to start unlacing her. He moved with purpose, though he wasn't rushed. Occasionally he would brush a finger against her back or along her neck, maybe even lean in to kiss her here and there, though never in the same spot. He enjoyed teasing her like this.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered at each teasing touch, rolling her eyes, though she was smiling. "I can tell you're enjoying this." Once I'm out of this dress I'll get some revenge.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn laughed quietly, he could almost hear Arryn roll her eyes. "I'm not the only one of us enjoying this. Your skin is a bad liar. I can see you shiver." Dayn finally undid the last of the lace knots before taking a few steps back. "All untied."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn sighed contently and shimmied the dress down before taking it off and folding it carefully before going into their room and setting it on their clothing chest. She grabbed a blanket off the bed and wrapped it around herself before returning to Dayn. She nuzzled up against his neck as she wrapped her arms around him in a hug, wrapping the blanket around him too.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn's eyes followed Arryn into their bedroom, never straying far from her until she had past into the room. He quietly stepped into the great room and undid his doublet before laying it aside on a dresser, though by that time Arryn had walked back into the room with a blanket wrapped around her. He turned just in time to have her arms wrap around him, enveloping them both in the blanket as she nuzzled against his neck. His hands pressed against her back as he embraced her. "I'm not sure what you are planning, but so far I like it."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn mumbled against his neck, "'m not plannin' anythin'. Just wanted a hug."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn pressed his face against Arryn's neck as he held her tight. "Mm canm do dat.", he mumbled back.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nuzzled against his neck one last time before lightly kissing his collarbone and slowly kissing up his neck to his cheek.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn held his head still to the best of his ability as he shivered slightly. Instead of just standing around, though, Dayn gently picked Arryn up again, making sure to keep the cover around her before he nuzzled against her cheek. "Hello Arryn."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn squeaked a bit as he picked her up before she giggled quietly. "Hello mo chroi." She lightly kissed his cheek before burying her face against his neck again, waiting to see what he'd do.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn laughed at Arryn's squeak, but when she buried her face against his neck he found himself nuzzling against her cheek. "That squeak might have been one of the most hilariously adorable things I've ever heard."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn blushed crimson, hiding her face against his shoulder. "I'm glad you found it humorous."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Arryn, I don't mean to embarrass you. You just have some of the cutest quirks."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn blushed even more. "I'm not embarrassed... okay, maybe a little. but not in a bad way."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn couldn't help but smile now. He reached up and brushed back a stray lock of her hair before rubbing his thumb along her cheek. "Cheeks of the same red as your hair. Beautiful."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn would have blushed more if it were possible. She wrapped her arms around his neck and adjusted so she could kiss his cheek.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn turned his head so he could kiss her lips. His hand strayed down to the back of Arryn's neck and then around and back up to her cheek again. "You are so adorable when you blush."
