Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

Arryn crawled over to Dayn and cuddled up to him. "Mhm. I'm so glad we're home. Alone."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn turned and wrapped his arms around Arryn, resting his head against her's as he held her close. Desires could wait for now. "Just you and me hon. Not a care in the world."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn gave Dayn a light kiss. "I think, after the last few days, we most certainly deserve this."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled as he nuzzled against Arryn's neck. "I think, after the last few days, you might be right."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn moved to wrap her arms around Dayn's neck. "Mhm, and my big brave knight ran in there with his armor all blacked up. Quite the awe-inspiring sight."

 

[BookWyrm]

"I feel less like a knight and more like a wolf as the days go by." Dayn's hands were crossing learned paths over Arryn's back as he nuzzled her. "The wolf-knight. Hmm, doesn't have a bad sound to it actually. Might make the black armor permanent too."

 

[Dragongal]

"Oh, but when it shines in the light, it makes all the Ladies jealous." Arryn nuzzled against Dayn's neck as she lightly shivered from his touch. "Except me. Because you're mine."

 

[BookWyrm]

"I don't want jealous Ladies. I want my rose, my lover and closest friend. I want the woman that knows my heart inside and out, because she is the woman whom I gave it to hold it and care for it."

 

[Dragongal]

"Fair... but I'm an evil person who kind of likes seeing rich Ladies jealous of what is mine." Arryn giggled a bit. Yes he had said a very romantic statement, but her point held. She moved to nuzzling against his cheek. "You're the best knight, wolf-knight or not."

 

[BookWyrm]

"And you have suddenly become a sweet talker." Dayn pulled Arryn back just so he could kiss her. "Keep that up and I might be more inclined to make a show of things so that there can be jealous Ladies."

 

[Dragongal]

"What Lady wouldn't be jealous? You're handsome, and strong, and smart. Poetic, romantic, and, of course, you look fantastic shirtless."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Other than the fact that I get rather hairy from time to time?"

 

[Dragongal]

"You mean that you get warmer and more cuddly on occasion?" Arryn laughed as she nuzzled against his cheek. When she pulled back, she paused to look at him for a few moments before giving him a kiss. "I love you."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled. "I love you too." For several moments he remained silent as he watched Arryn. "What do you see when you look at me?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn raised one eyebrow in response. After a few moments, she smiled, and pulled him into a tight hug. "My husband."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn buried his face against Arryn, holding her with a fierce passion. "You know what I am yet you love me just the same. No matter what jealous temptress comes around to try and pull me away they would never know me like you do, they would never be loyal like you are, and they could never love as deeply." Dayn raised his eyes to meet Arryn's as he brushed his thumb across her cheek. He couldn't help but think back on that woman that had tried to seduce him. "Wolves mate for life. You know I would never leave you, right?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nodded. "I know you never would, mo chroi. And you know griffins mate for life as well. But even without my lineage, I would never leave you either. I need my heart." Arryn decided to make the conversation a bit more chipper. She grinned and nuzzled against his cheek. "I do still get to fight temptresses anyway, though, right?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"You mean I can't eat them? Isn't that what big bad wolves are supposed to do?"

 

[Dragongal]

"But you're not a big bad wolf, silly, you're a big snuggle wolf. Besides, I don't want any part of you touching them, whether it be to murder them or otherwise."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn's brow knit together before he started laughing. "That is the most adorably strange thing I have ever heard."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn giggled and kissed his cheek. "You did marry a rather 'adorably strange' girl. And with our lifestyles? Nothing should be odd to you anymore."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn laughed and returned the kiss before giving Arryn a classic mischievous grin.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled back, then suddenly began tickling him while putting in her best effort to be hard to remove.

 

[BookWyrm]

"Not fair!" Dayn found himself powerless to remove or to stop Arryn's rampant tickle attack. In the end, and only after several long minutes of enduring the tickling, Dayn finally buried his face against Arryn's chest, hoping to maybe find some relief possibly by shocking her. If not, well, at least he'd suffocate as a happy man.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn pushed Dayn away, waited a second, then practically tackled him as she got close to cuddle him. Close enough so that he couldn't try that stunt again without considerable difficulty. She wrapped her arms around him and smiled.
