Dark Desires ~ Closed ~

[TirithIre]

He was there, and yet he was also very much hidden. He could tell it frustrated her, and that amused him more than anything else. Even as she did run and make a game of his stripping her, he smirked at her questions.

" He hasn't quite decided if you are worthy, but he wishes you to be so."

The voice was cryptic in it's meaning, and however as she hid behind one of the flower bushes, he seemed to pass around the bush, letting her keep it as a barrier between them, for now.

" Long ago, you would not have had a choice. He would have taken you, and that would have been it. Now however, he sees that such things are never truly wanted, and thus he wishes you to desire it as well."

With that, the shadow re-appeared behind her, capturing her up, hands forcefully sliding around, cupping and crushing her breasts in those shadowy hands. " Therefore the ultimate decision has to be yours, He will not take you until you decide you are ready."

Fingers cruelly captured her nipples, pulling and twisting them, the touch so much more demanding and controlling than Arkana had been, she could tell he would consume her if she but admitted what she truly wanted.

Until then, she would be toyed and played with, his desires pressing against her ass openly, letting her know that he did indeed desire her!

 

[katalynn]

Keara whimpered and fidgeted in her sleep when the shadowed one grabbed her. It surprised her that she could actually feel what he was doing to her, his heat up against her like he was physcially here, the pinching of her nipples made her cry out a little. Unintentionally, she arched her back against him pushing the hard nipple out towards his fingers.

"What if it is what I desire, as well as something I fear? I've been raised to believe many things, things that make me fear such desires... It is a desire of which I fear."

Keara squirmed within his arms, uncertain of what to do at this point, whether to stay or fight against him. She couldn't help the rolling of her hips however, pressing back into the hardness she felt. It both excited and scared her at the same time, the unknown frightened her the most.

"I fear these desires I have for him...."

She whispered, both in dream and physically.

 

[TirithIre]

The shadow seemed bemused that she had thought she could stay from him, and even as she arched her back, offering her nipples for him, those fingers only seemed to pull more fully, stretching the hard flesh, watching as she squirmed and cried.

As she said that though, the shadow's touch softened ever so slightly, as though considering her remark.

" Desires are meant to be desired yet feared. There is pain as well as pleasure, but that is life. You will have to decide for yourself whether your fear, or desire will win."

With that the fingers renewed their assault, pulling and crushing her breasts, making her dance upon her feet even as she admitted her fears.

" You should, you do not know how he will have you. Yet you still want it, your pussy cries out for it, your hips and ass beg for it." He purred to her, the visage much more real that night as the shadow shifted it's hips and she felt the length of his nine inch cock sliding alongside her slit, he forcing her to lean back against him.

" You don't fear it as much as you desire it... do you." He purred, the length tormenting her swollen needy slit.

 

[katalynn]

There was so much confusion floating around in her mind, between Arkana and the shadow, Keara almost felt trapped in a world she was meant to fear. They demanded to hear her desires, even if she herself truly didn't know the extent of them. The shadow spoke of pain and pleasure, even went as far as admitting that she should fear these desires. Keara danced on her tip toes while he tortured her nipples, forcing her to cry and whimper from the pain, much like Alexander did with the spankings.

Yet, just as with the spankings, there was also pleasure Keara couldn't deny. She could feel wet she was getting while sliding along the thick hardness she felt. Her hips did roll and begged for more, a deeper desire begged to have him stretch and fill her, like how Arkana described earlier.

"Yessss.... I desire it.... I want it.... I desire to be his...."

Keara half moaned and cried out a mixture of pain and pleasure that teased all her nerves.

 

[TirithIre]

The 'dream' wasn't quite a dream, for he her 'invaded them' creating a special place where she was to be tormented by the shadow, a visage of her lusts and desires... a place where she could safely explore them.

As she half moaned and cried out her admission though, the visage groaned softly, a deep, primal, animalistic sound as he grumbled.

" Then you will need to find your way to him. Only when you understand fully, will he claim you."

She didn't know all of Zander, she knew there was more to him, but the way was blocked. She would need to learn more about herself in order to reach him. She would need to be stronger, to become worthy.

For now her hips slid aling the hardness, it not quite real, but real enough for now. The length teased her slit, allowing her to work herself into a frenzy before the dawn had come, and he dissapeared again, leaving her un-fullfilled.

The night had been to see what her true desires were... now, she would need to show her potential, persistence and drive in order to reach the masters heart, to claim the heart of a dragon... one who had been cursed and chained for so long!

 

[katalynn]

The shadowed one was far to cryptic for Keara, his words echoed in the dream world and she whimpered with frustration as he disappeared from her. Her body was in a frenzy, craving and begging to be satisfied, to find that pleasure that it yearned for. When she woke, she was clutching her tails tightly, not realizing she had been humping against one of them between her legs.

Keara had almost forgotten Arkana was still in the bed till she heard a little moan and felt her roll over. Though Keara did try to go back to sleep, it wouldn't come easily for many reasons. Despite how worked she was, it was mostly what the shadowed one spoke of that kept her awake.

Arkana was holding onto one of her tails and when Keara tried to pull it from her, Arkana just gripped onto it tighter. This made Keara smirk a little and then wondered what happens between her and the wild elf now, wondering if last night changes the friendship, or make it stronger.

It was then Keara hid her tails once more, making them vanish from Arkanas grip before slipping out of the bed quietly. Once she found a simple, yet very pretty blue velvet dress, Keara slipped from the room in hopes she wouldn't wake Arkana. Soon made her way to the gardens to think and clear her head. The sun hadn't quite risen yet and she found a perfect spot to watch it rise.

Keara could still feel the shadowed one against her, feel how he pulled and twisted her nipples, it was so fresh in her thoughts that she couldn't help to think of it. It did make her smile however, even with what happened with Arkana made her smile.

 

[TirithIre]

The shadowed one was a fragment of Zander, of the dragon. Lost, locked within, he was more than frustrated, but was also unwilling to get his hopes completely up, especially for a young kitsune. In his eyes, she was a child, and would need to prove herself worthy of the dragon. That did not mean that the dragon would turn her away, nor would he stop helping her to develop her skills and magics.

Arkana merely moaned softly in protest when the tail dissapeared from her grip, but nuzzling into the sheets, she would sleep an hour longer before she would wake. After that she would get Keara's breakfast, and the kitsune could tell the little Wild elf would prove the most gracious and loyal of friends that she had ever had.

As Zander woke in the morning, his eyes stared slightly up at the ceiling for a few moments, before he threw on a deep red and gold robe before he wandered the halls for a while. There were magical wards blocking entrance to the North eastern quarters, the reminders of what he was annoyed and frustrated him.

He was bound to a form which was not his own, though he had another which was humanoid, he could not even shift into that. He was chained and held there, trapped until he was freed. He cursed Anastasia every day of his existence, and yet as he passed the gardens, he noticed her and decided to pause.

Watching her for a time, he made his way in. " You are up early." His voice was human, and yet the shadowed figures voice was much more. He would not share what he truly was with her... she would have to discover that for herself!

 

[katalynn]

The sunrise held her attention for the time she sat out there, entranced by its beauty which is something she's never really considered before. Normally she tends to sleep in late in the morning, wasting half her days away when she was at the city, having nothing better to do. Keara was laying down on of the benches, day dreaming and finally realized that she needed to find a way into the forbidden area of the castle. For some reason it just kept nagging at her, calling for her to explore that area. She couldn't understand what was so bad that he had to keep it hidden like that.


His voice snuck up behind her though, washing away the thoughts she had. It made her stand up and quickly, straightening out the dress. It was probably a little too much for this early in the morning, but she didn't care anymore, Keara started to like the dresses she found, for some reason she actually wanted to start wearing more of them for him.

"I just couldn't sleep, it's such a beautiful morning and I wanted to watch the sunrise."

Keara couldn't look him in the eyes, to embarrassed by the things that happened last night her confessions kept tumbling around in her head.

"I was thinking about yesterday and everything. I'm sorry if I got too excited about everything yesterday. I will do my best to not be a pest to you. I really do appreciate everything you are teaching me."

She lowered her gaze to the ground, obviously having more to say but couldn't find the right words, especially when she thought about the punishment again.

"I also don't wish to disappoint you again."

 

[TirithIre]

He admired that she jumped up so quickly, but he held up a hand. " It's all right. I used to watch the sunrises as well, however when you cannot go very far to meet the day, the thrill somewhat diminishes." He remarked, though he had a good idea that his words would stick with her in regards to proving herself, he noticed her embarassment.

" You are doing well. The high elves protected you in their own way, and though I do not agree with everything they did, you are here now, and thus the information you have been deprived is presented to you." He remarked, though he moved around the bench, his eyes on her. " Come, sit with me." He sitting down, his eyes seeming to look up at the sky.

" The library is completely open to you, everything I have on kitsune and their magic is on the table we were at yesterday. You may pursue it all you like." He remarked, though her words about dissapointing him made him scrutinize her for a moment, before he simply nodded.

" I know you will not, and that is good enough for me." He remarked as he added. " Though you didn't seem all that truly upset over it, is your bottom still sore?" He asked easily, he not shy in speaking with her. He admired the dress though, she could feel his eyes lingering on her.

" The dress is nice, it suits you." He remarked finally, smiling slightly to her. He didn't smile a lot, but it seemed that was something that she was improving about him.

 

[katalynn]

The kitsune within Keara was much like the dragon, caged and trapped. However, her cage was much different and now that kitsune had a small taste of freedom yesterday, it was written all over her face that it wanted to be free for good. Keara on the other hand was raised by high elves, the elders conditioned her to be something she isn't, to deny the true nature of the kitsune. And now, more than ever it can be seen that Keara was fighting to maintain the image of her Elders. Hidden behind masks and walls that were not made by her, but by those that raised her.

"Thank you. I'm not really used to wearing dresses like this, the elders would never allow me to wear such dresses. But, I like the dresses here."

Keara did smile at everything he said, even a light blush tinted her cheeks at the compliment of her dress. Although it faded while she sat down next to him and retreating back behind the walls when she thought of the question about her backside. At first she wasn't quite sure how to answer that, then she shook her head to hide the emotions of it.

"Yes, it is still tender and no I didn't mind the physical part of it, it was more humiliating than anything else."

There was some hesitation while she continued, uncertain of how to say what she wanted and was difficult knowing there is a connection between him and shadowed one.

"The Elders have always told me that emotions have a way of turning people into fools. That they will act on emotional thinking instead of with a clear mind void of distractions. I am not a foolish little girl, and yet I've been allowing my emotions to run wild foolishly...."

Keara lowered her gaze to the ground, knowing he had to know her desires from the Shadowed one. There are quite a few aspects about Alexander that actually reminded her of the shadow, especially his hands and some tone in his voice that's she's picked up on. However, for now, she didn't want to question it, or think about the shadowed creature, it tends to cause her mind to drift in another direction. There were other questions to think about.

"The Elders also used to tell me..... That people will want to trick me, sending me into emotional traps."

He can tell Keara was struggling hard to deny the true nature of the Kitsune and pretending to be something she isn't. It showed a lot in her ears as the kitsune fought against the elven ears, though her face was lowered, her eyes warred to hide and push back all the emotions she's been going through since her arrival here.


"They say if I give too much of myself to people, they will see my desires as a weakness and will abuse it, that I will live to regret falling for such trickery and traps."

Keara paused for a moment before continuing, hoping she won't upset him with all this, but it is something she needed hear and to hear it from him. She always had a way of knowing if someone is telling lies or being truthful, and it was more than obvious, no matter how hard she tried to hide it, there was a hint of fear within her tone.


"Is all of this a trick? Will staying here be something I will live to regret? Will my desires, my weaknesses be abused like the Elders claim? If I decide to stay..... I will end up giving much of myself.... I just...."

 

[TirithIre]

He looked to her as she made space for him to sit, and so he did, making his way to lean against the back of the bench, looking out over the flowers as he considered how she was acting. Besides, it seemed that she had a few things that she needed to 'get off her chest' so to speak.

As she seemed to like that he found her enticing, he did not make mention of the fact that she clearly had wanted to dress this way, in order probably to capture his attention. If that HAD been her goal, well, then she had succeeded.

As she said that about the punishment though he nodded. " I do understand, such a vulnerable position could be construed as embarassing, but I assure you it will remain between the two of us. The library is soundproofed with magic from before the curse. It is a sanctuary of sorts so that those who are within it are blocked off hearing wise from the goings on of the castle." He explained.

As she said that about herself and the elders, he let out a slightly frustrated sigh. He was sure she would take it as him being frustrated with her, but that wasn't actually the case at all. He was frustrated with the elders for treating her that way. It wouldn't help her in any real way, and had probably done damage to her.

" I understand that they were looking to protect you from being used by the humans or being killed, but they raised you wrong." He finally spoke, his voice measured. " Kitsune at their very core are sensitive and emphatic creatures. They are much like the fey when it comes to that. While emotions CAN turn you into a fool, the same could be said for every other being on this realms surface."

As she lowered her gaze though, he seemed to close his eyes, his thoughts sorting through themselves until she said that, his eyes looking to her. " There is no trap, not for you Keara." He growled slightly, taking offense towards her as he rose to his feet, his tall, handsome, strong frame shadowing her slightly.

" I do not know what the elders have said specifically about how you should act and shouldn't act, but you must listen to your heart. The most powerful of races do so, and though there are sorrows and pain within every aspect of life, that is just that, a part of life."

He seemed to consider himself for a moment, but turned away, his back to her. " You will have to come to a decision of whether you are willing to be vulnerable in many more ways than simply bent over my lap being punished for being late, and accept not to mention trust, that I will not abuse that trust. Until then, you are welcome here, and I will do my best to help you."

He moved off then, though stopped at the entrance to the gardens. " Think of yourself as a flower. You have just come out of hiding from the ground... now is your time to blossom and grow. When you are fully blossomed, and if you remain, I will pluck you." He promised gently, before he was gone, leaving her to her own thoughts and 'problems' once more.

 

[katalynn]

There wasn't much for her to say after hearing all that he had said, Keara did pick up the frustration within though. What she couldn't figure out if it was towards her for speaking out concerns, or towards the Elders. In either case, she knew he left being upset in one way or another. Keara kept listening to his words long after he left and soon she growled to herself with frustration. More than anything she wanted to keep hold of what the Elders had taught her, but after the things he had spoken, Keara didn't know what to believe in.

The morning was growing more vibrant and the day flowers were starting to wake up, Keara looked up towards where her room would be and wondered if Arkana is awake yet. Just before she was about to leave though, she let the kitsune free, filling out the bottom of her dress with the four tails, replacing the image of elders with the natural silver furred ears. The tails lifted to dress slightly and four tips could be seen twitching below the hem line. Keara went to her favorite flowers, the blue and silver ones taking a moment to enjoy their scent and beauty.

She didn't how to think of herself as a flower like he mentioned, but she was determined to find herself and remove everything the elders had told her. Then a smile came to her lips as she thought about something she read yesterday, looking back up towards her room, she closed her eyes picturing the room and the next thing she knew, she was in her room.

When she opened her eyes Arkana was right in front of her with her back turned.

"Did you sleep well?"

Keara spoke as if she had been there the whole time.

 

[TirithIre]

Zander wasn't frustrated with her, no matter what she thought. He was frustrated that the elders would have chained her spirit, when the spirit was something that the kitsune were based so completely on. It made no sense to him, but if they had been trying to protect her, he also COULD see the wisdom of their ways, even if he didn't particularly agree with them.

He was sure that she didn't see everything he said, but it was true, and Zander agreed with it. Even as she released herself from hiding in her physical form, the garden was still there, waiting for her to enjoy them. The silver and blue flowers gave off their usual pheromones, and yet as she seemed determined to find herself, the way was for her to experience.

As she magically shifted into her room, Arkana had been standing naked as the day she was born leaning over placing the tray down. As Keara spoke though the little elf jumped and squealed in shock and surprise, though as she spun around she lifted a hand placing it over her heart.

" Oh! where did YOU come from, you were gone, and now here, and you weren't here a moment ago..." She was rambling in her shocked surprised and honestly almost panicked state, but she finally calmed herself down and smiled meekly.

" I did sleep well, did you?" She asked, she steadying her breath and quietly began to collect her sanity again. After all only the master could teleport, and he couldn't in his chained form anyway, so it had been a long time since anyone had done that trick to her!

 

[katalynn]

"I slept well enough."

Keara smiled while Arkana rambled on while regaining her composure. It didn't take much for Keara to start feeling the flowers essence, the warmth slowly creeping throughout her body. A shiver shot up her spine when the little nub between her legs twitched with refreshed excitement.

"I was just in the gardens, wanted to get some fresh air and watch the sunrise."

Keara left out the part of talking with Zander though. Instead, she ate some fruit then a sudden urge came over her. Arkana had a certain scent about her that Keara couldn't get enough of, it intensified what the flower created within her.

Next thing Arkana knew, Keara pulled the little elf into a tender kiss while running her nails down her back. Keara let the the kiss linger a little too long before pulling away breathless. Then the sudden shyness flooded back, filling her cheeks with a burning heat.

"I just wanted to thank you for last night.... and also..... I like kissing you..."

Keara didn't know how last night might have changed Arkana or not, though she quickly found a way to distract herself by going towards the closet. Almost afraid of some kind of rejection for some reason. She started looking through the dresses and other outfits wondering if there were ways to manipulate them for her tails to be free.

 

[TirithIre]

Arkana smiled as Keara said that, though she nodded to her, the little elf simply looking to her with a soft look. As she said that about the sunrise though Arkana smiled gently again. " I used to watch every sunrise, the gardens were happier when they weren't hidden in this veil." She mused, though shrugged slightly.

Surprised was certainly a good way to describe the little elf's reaction to the kiss, though she softly moaned into her lips, shuddering at the scraping nails, and though Keara broke the kiss and said that so shyly, for a moment Arkana was caught off guard and simply nodded to her. " You have soft lips..." She mused breathlessly.

As Keara slipped into the closet though the little elf moved up behind her and smiling, she wrapped her arms around the kitsune gently. " Besides, I like kissing you too." She mused as she nibbled on the nape of Keara's neck, her hands squeezing Keara close as she smiled and pressed herself right up against her.

" We're going to be the best of friends..." She mused, though a thought came into her mind. " You ARE staying with us... right? You're not going to run away are you? I promise we're not like the high elves, you are free to do whatever you like." She mused, even as her hands moved up and cupped her lovely breasts through her gown.

" Besides, I remember what you said last night... about how you want the master... I think you'd be great for him... and he'd be good for you." She purred as she handled the kitsune really easily, stoking those desires and refusing to let Keara hide herself away again.

 

[katalynn]

Keara listened to her questions, promises and hopes and it made Keara smirk a little. It also brought back the conversation between the shadow of her dreams and Zander this morning. In a small sense, it seemed as if they were the ones wishing for her to stay, though she couldn't figure out why. They hardly knew her and yet it felt like they are expecting more from her than she'll ever know.

"Yes, I plan on staying. However, it seems I need to fix these dresses somehow, if I'm to keep my tails free that is."

Keara couldn't help the feeling Arkana gave her, gasping slightly at the nipping at her neck, arching her back when Arkana started to play with her breast, feeling how hard the nipples became a the slightest touch.

"I have a long ways to go before he will accept like that. I need to find myself before I can go looking for him. The elves made me fear a lot of things.... Made me into one of them..."

Little gasps and moans broke through the words while Arkana distracted her more, increasing the burning need that filled her to the core.

"I don't even know who I am or how to act anymore..."

Keara was pressing back against Arkana, letting the elf play with her body. Meanwhile her tails lifted the skirt and wrapped around Arkanas' legs, caressing over her silky skin.

 

[TirithIre]

Arkana smiled as Keara didn't seem to fear being there, but perhaps rather fearing the unknown path that laid before her. Arkana nodded though, she smiling.

" We DO have a seamstress you know, I am sure if you spoke with her she would be able to help you adjust your dresses." She mused, though she grinned as Keara responded so openly to her touches and attentions.

As she gasped and moaned that out though, the little elf nodded. " You do, he is more than what he seems, but I am bound not to speak of it, all who are here are. The last thing he commanded of us was that, so I must respect his wishes." She mused.

As Keara's back arched Arkana felt how hard those nubs became, she smiling as she pinched them through the dress, though she soon was moving her hands and working the dress looser, she fished Keara's lovely breasts out and openly played with them.

" You should only act as you wish to act, but you are right, you do have a long way to go before he will take you. Since you want to be his, you will need to improve your magics, understand that you are free to be yourself, and overcome the conditioning those elves placed upon you." She mused.

As she spoke though she enjoyed the tails attentions, though she soon slid a hand down and with the skirts lifted for Keara's tails Arkana was able to smoothly slide two fingers into her pussy, fingering her as they both stood there, the little elf taking such good control, though nothing like the shadows attentions upon her in the night times.

 

[katalynn]

Keara held onto the wall of the closet for support while her legs started to tremble slightly, for reason she found no reason to fight this feeling anymore. The last two days have proven that it was hopeless to fight it, that it brought her so much pleasure and she simply accepted it. Her legs parted the moment she felt Arkanas' fingers slip between them, shaking on her tip toes from the weakness it caused.

"Will..... you help me..... to overcome such things.... help me.... to break free....."

her words were random while the focus slowly faded, turning into pure lust as her hips rolled and her body writhed within Arkana's hands. Moans and purrs flooded from the little kitsune as she grew closer to reaching that pleasurable edge. Keara didn't understand why her body reacts so easily, suddenly acting like a needy little slut everytime Arkana touches her, yet, Keara liked how it felt as well.

Her tails roamed freely over Arkana, caressing her back and wrapping around them both, hugging them tighter together if that was possible. One of her silky tails slipped between Arkana's thighs and teased her lightly, tickling along her wet folds.

 

[TirithIre]

Arkana smiled as she moved Keara closer to the wall, allowing her to hold onto it for support. She could tell that the young kitsune had been so sexually deprived that such sensitivity was to be expected, not to mention that the little elf enjoyed handling Keara in such a way.

As she asked that though, Arkana softly smiled.

" I will, in whatever ways you need." She purred, and even as her hips rolled and rocked, the lithe fingers working Keara's pussy very well as her palm ground gently against the kitsune's hard little clit. She would help Keara in whatever way she could, though unbeknowest to Keara the little blue and silver flowers she loved so much were the 'reason' she was so uninhibited, Keara's lusts being stoked constantly really.

As Keara roamed her tails the little elf mewled and moaned herself, her toned legs spreading open slightly as she worked her own hips back and forth slightly, a soft cry issuing from her lips as Keara's tail slid over her swollen wet folds, but she grinned and pushed a third finger into Keara in response, stretching her as she filled her as well.

" Now, be a good little slut and cum, then we can study those books master took out in the library for you." She purred, working Keara relentlessly towards a much needed climax.

 

[katalynn]

When Arkana called her a slut, a strange sensation filled Keara with the single word. Keara remembers when the little elf called her that last night as well, only she didn't think about it then. Somehow it was different this time, having a different affect mentally and with the third finger entering, stretching her more, Keara did cum. She shook hard and buckled forward a little while gripping onto the wall, knees giving out and trembling hard.

Keara cried out her pleasures, unconcerned of anyone else hearing her at this point. It took her several moments to regain herself, hugging Arkana close with her tails.

"I.... I like it when you call me that..."

She finally panted out softly, releasing the hugging grip her tails had on Arkana while she slowly stood up, fighting to regain some kind of composure. No matter how much she enjoyed it however, the shyness and embarrassment always seem to fill her eyes, redness heating her face from such action and confessions.

"I should speak with that seamstress first though, it must look funny having my tails under the dress like this."

Keara trying to change the subject, although it just barely happened and clearly fresh in her thoughts, her voice still a bit shaky and a shiver ran up her spine as the juices streamed down her thighs.

"I.... I will make this up to you later.... I promise.."

She couldn't look at Arkana right now, to embarrassed by her own actions that started all this.

 

[TirithIre]

Arkana grinned when the lovely kitsune had THAT look on her face, and even as Keara seemed lost within the realms of her own pleasure, Arkana shifted those fingers, working them right up against Keara's g-spot and was rewarded by her strangled cries which seemed to be pushing her right over the edge.

The little elf smiled when Keara said that, though she lifted her fingers and licked them off happily. " I could tell." She purred, though she could see that shyness and embarassment returning. Arkana smiled though and simply nodded.

" You DO look a bit silly." She admitted with a giggle, but she shook her head. " You don't have to do anything, I like making you cum." She purred, though she helped Keara into the bathroom to wash up, Arkana then sliding her own simple dress on before she showed her to the seamstress.

She was very helpful, and Zander seemed to stay away that day, he was watching though, from a distance, watching to see what Keara would do to prove herself to him. He had left every book he had on kitsune, so she had her own journey to pursue.

Arkana was there helping her in any way that she could. It was clear the little elf WANTED them to be together, and would help her friend in any way she could. She didn't bring up Keara's submissive tendencies at all, not unless Keara wanted to talk on it.

She doubted that Keara would want that however... it was a private issue really, something for her to delve into for herself!

 

[katalynn]

The day seemed to have passed by without much excitement, except for how Keara remained aroused throughout the day. The flower had worn off long time ago, it wasn't much to begin with, however the thoughts kept filling her head with many images. Keara still stayed focused on what she was learning though, talking with Arkana as if they had been friends since childhood. The sex talk was kept to a minimum for now however, it was still too much for her to process. Making the subject in the books their main focus for now.

It was just after lunchtime when Keara let Arkana go do whatever it is she needed, after all, the little elf had her own chores to do still. Getting Arkana in trouble was the last thing she wanted to do. Also, Keara was getting tired of reading so much, she wanted to spend sometime outside before dinner, get some fresh air after spending hours in the library.

She was happy that the seamstress fixed the dress she was already wearing, taking no time at all to set her tails free. Once back in the garden, the dark silver markings of her tails seem to glitter in the sunlight as she moved around. While outside she payed a little bit of attention to the flowers like she has been doing. Shortly after started practicing some of her magic.

Figured she could practice and at the same time play with Arkana while she did her chores doing simple things such making things disappear and reappear in a different spot without Arkana ever seeing her. Keara was learning how to hide as well as port around the place, she also followed along the hedge line at one point just to see if she could find any more holes. to her surprise she did actually see the holes, or perhaps it was just one that kept moving in random places. It was a huge hedge and she couldn't tell, she just knew that when she went back to where one hole was, it was gone. Most the time however, the holes were too small for her to even consider fitting through.

It wasn't quite dinner time yet, Keara had plenty of time to kill and at first she was going to go back to Arkana and keep playing with her. Then just as she was about to port to where ever Arkana was, Alexander came to her thoughts, just realizing that she hadn't seen him all day, he hadn't come looking for her either.

Soon she found herself in a strange room, one that she hadn't been in yet and it was cluttered with ... to her.. was junk at first. Normally Keara had to see the place she wanted to port to, it said in the book that if one doesn't know where they are going, they could get trapped in a wall or something. Just then Keara wanted to leave this room, not knowing where she was frightened her a little.

At first, Zander had been the one keeping a strict eye on her, making sure that she was accomplishing something... anything. It was clear from his words that he did want her to succeed, to grow stronger and to become what she desired to be.

Yet even as that passed, he soon was consumed by his own thoughts, brought about by his own chained cursed existence. Even as she had arranged for her dress to be opened up, the seamstress had handled it well, promising to have her entire wardrobe adjusted within a few days for her.

Arkana had been able to pick up that someone was porting around, after all most elves were sensitive to magic, but she didn't make Arkana jump again, so that was fine. She had rooms to keep clean, to keep her chores going and there was some dinner to help prepare, but the cook mostly wanted people out of the way.

As she ported into the strange room however, there seemed to be no sense of order to the room. The only thing familiar about the room was the fact that it carried Alexander's scent, and yet it seemed that she had somehow ended up in the north eastern part of the castle. After all, she had explored every other part, and if she wasn't sure of where she was, by the process of elimination, that was where she had to be.

" How did you get in here?" A very familiar voice rang out through the silence, his eyes seeming to glow within the darkness as Zander stepped from the balconey, surprise turning to anger. He certainly didn't seem pleased that she was there however.

" How dare you..." He growled, a snarl issuing from his voice as he seemed to look around for a moment, his hands curling into fists. " One place you are NOT allowed..." Yet as he approached her, she had to see the paintings, the beautifully done artwork of a regal looking black dragon. Obsidian scales seemed to be caught within the light, and it carried over from one to another.

The statues were of the same dragon, the shadow's visage seeming to rise up against the wall behind him. Aaxtrinioius was not amused however, his entire human persona seemingly very... well angry as he wasn't between her and the way out.

He seemed about ready to snap however, rage blinding him to the magnificent feat that she had accomplished, porting past arcane runes and warding, overcoming powerful magics with her instinct to see him, to reach him!

The fear at first wouldn't let her think straight and just when she forced some of that fear down, wanting to figure out where she was, curiosity slowly took place. It didn't take much at all for her to finally figure out where she was, the dragon statues and paintings gave some of the location away, knowing he had them locked in the forbidden area. Also, she has been all over the castle, in every other room just exploring and figuring out where everyone was in case she needed something.

Just as she reached one painting in particular though, his voice filled the room and brought back the fear, quickly turning into panic as his anger rose. Keara started to back up, tripping over a statue and staggered back until she was up against a wall.

"I.... I didn't mean to... I.. was thinking of you and..... and I ended up here...."

Keara can tell her words were falling on deaf ears right now, any excuse she has had no meaning through his rage. The fear consumed her though, making it very difficult to think of anything else, however she forced herself to think of another place, anywhere but here. And with some effort she found herself back in the library in shock and filled with fear, wondering what he is going to do with her now.

 

[TirithIre]

He had no idea how she had ended up there, but his own rage was mixed with panic. He hadn't been ready for her to find out what he was... he wasn't ready for her to discover that part of him. Yet it seemed that the future wasn't willing to wait until he was ready, and instead forced the issue to the forefront.

As she turned in panic though she could see that the shadow behind him was very much the same shadow which had invaded her thoughts and dreams over the nights, but the man before her seemed so much more than that.

As she stammered that though he had been about to snap his hand out and catch her when she simply... dissapeared. His eyes widened slightly. " Shit.." He growled to himself, his eyes sweeping the area. " Shit shit shit!" He snapped at himself, though he turned and raking a claw like hand over one of the paintings he destroyed it in anger.

" She would never want to be with me now that she knows..." He snarled at himself, and yet he forced himself to calm for a moment. She was thinking of me, and ended up here. He remembered those words of hers and they seemed to indeed calm him for that time. Even as he took a long half hour to calm down though, he did leave the north eastern part of the castle, he on the hunt for her.

After all, they did need to talk, one way or another, the cat was out of the bag so to speak.
