The Hunger of Power (Closed for myself and Sweetp)

[nightray]

I sit next to my father’s throne of gold watching the nobles maneuvering in an endless dance making and braking alliances all in order to gain power and to crush an enemy. I yawn as I sit board for I was the oldest son of my father and thus I had to learn the politics of the court. My eye’s move to the windows looking out at the garden and the deep clear blue sky. I look over at a lord trying to engage in conversion about some deal or other.

I stand and walk out threw the back door hidden behind the throne not caring about the lectecher I would get from my father when he catches me. It seems that he’s always lectechering me about some thing demanding perfection from me.

Mother died at my breath so I never got to know her I was razed by the nannies and the tutors and when I was old enough I was schooled in the art of the sword and war. I had found that it came to me easily like I was born with a blade in my hands.

I move threw the halls avoiding the servants as much as one can so as to make it more difficult for my father to fined me. I slip out in to the courtyard looking around and dashing to the stables. I smile as I see my horse in its stall my older sisters horse is already gone.

I quickly sandal my horse up something that most of the nobles would frown apon a crowned prince shouldn’t lower him self to satelling his own horses. I chuckle as I keep a look out for the stable hands knowing that they would do there best to stop me and do it them selves. I quickly mount and kick my horse in it sides casing him to rear on his hind legs before galloping out of the stables doors as fast as he can.

I laugh at the freedom of the wind blowing in my face as my mount runs threw the fields of the peasants heeding to the royal forest. I look around and chuckle as the horse bursts in to the under brush leaping easily over bushes and reveans. I slow down once the trees become to dens to gallop in any longer my ears open for the sound of the stream that runs threw the forest. I smile as I hear it and the sweet tinkling lafter of my sister. I turn my horse in that direction heading tordes the sound. I smile broadly having always enjoyed the sound of her laugh it always made me feel happy I would do most any thing to hear her laugh.

Just as I cum out on to the bank of the stream I hear my sisters laughter turn in to a scream. I hear blades crashing and men yelling vile words. I turn my horse down stream in the direction of the yells. I burst out in to the clearing to a sight of hoarer the guards that were with my sister lay dead in and near the water. As several gruff looking men where holding and pawing at my sister.

I recognize them as what they are slavers they have been forbidden passage threw my fathers lands for many years now. With out thought I gallop strait at them trampling one man under my steed’s hooves with the satisfying sound of bones snapping. I hear the man scream in agony before his voice is cut of suddenly.

I turn my stead sharply dismounting and pulling my sword with a deadly grace. I run at the men still holding my sister ignoring me as there brutal hands grope and fondle her mercilessly laughing at her pleas of mercy.

My sword swings in a hye arc severing one manes head from his body a mist of blood flying in the air matching the fog boiling in my minds eye. I laugh with a blood lust as I turn the blade to cut another man my rage beyond control at this point. Just as my sword bites into another man I feel a sharp pain in the back of my head. I fall to my knees my eye’s blurring.

I hear a soultry women’s voice yell seeming from along way off. “Stop that you imbeciles she’s worth more untouched.” My eyes focus on my sisters horrified face tears poring down her cheeks and her breasts hanging free from her ripped dress. I try to speak but blackness envelopes me…

My eye’s open slowly the fog lifting as I see that I’m in my own room covers pulled up to my chin a maid hovering over me a wearied look on her face. I blink a few times my head pounding as I try to speak.

“W what happened how… how did I get hear?” I say in a low crock.

I flinch as she yells “My lord his awake.” I grown as her voice causes my head to ache. I role over on to my side holding my arms over my ears to keep the painful voice out.

I grown softly. “Quite pleas that hurts.” I say softly. I hear the sound of flesh being hit. I turn seeing the girl holding her cheek the red imprint of my fathers hand on it.

“Quit wench I told you to com and get me not yell his head is bond to be paining him after such a blow.” I hear my father growl in a low angry tone. My father then turns and looms over my bed something he do’s with out thinking as natchril as breathing.

“What happened son?” He asks in a low tone as gentle as he can. He’s eyes are full of fear rage and confusion.

“Slavers took Lena.” I sit up as it hit me the memory of thous rough disgusting hands pawing at her breasts. I shudder as I try to get out of bed. “I got to find her.” I say in a rush, but father’s hands push me back gently.

“Rest son it’s been days sins you where knocked out. It was all the maids could do to get you to drink broth.” I lay back weakness washing over me my head having become light as the room spins.

“But Lena.” I say a tear running down my cheek at the helpless feelings rushing threw me. “I have too save her I have too.” I say earnestly. Rage plain in my eyes at the thought of those disgusting barbarians touching her like that. I see the same rage burning in my father’s eyes.

“I’ve sent are best tracers after them but it is doubtful that we’ll find them.” He sits next to me the bed creaking slightly under his wait. “We didn’t find you until well after sundown and the tracers couldn’t find a trace of them.” He sighs they must have used the water to cover there sent and any sine of witch way they went.

I lay back my hand in a tight fist my knuckles weight with the effort. I pond my fist in to the mattress growling with frustrated anger. “So attack the slavers destroy the kingdom of Morgreth.” I say in a bitter tone my voice as hard and sharp as a sword.

My eye’s narrow slightly as my father shakes his head. “We can’t son there alleys would defend them. We would have to call in for support from are alis. They wouldn’t do so for Lena she’s not a crowned prince or a king.”

I growl rage boiling just below the serfes. “Then send are best men in to there lands to hunt the slavers and get her back.” I say every word bit off harshly.

“I've already don that son and we have also cut all trade with them as they have clearly violated the treaty.” He say’s this in a rezind voice knowing that we wouldn’t find her in time to save her from the horrors that lay in wait for her innocent mind….

Lena

Three years, four months and six days later...

She sat at the head of the row boat, watching the land becoming larger and larger. She was just moments away from returning home after being gone for several years, she did not look at this as a happy reunion but one of revenge. She had managed to save, steal and sell anything and everything to gain her passage home from her imprisonment. Now it was time she was given her dues.

She had changed in those years. Being sold has that effect on someone. She was passed from owner to owner, never having a say in anything, never allowed to speak unless bid to. The consequences were painful and she bore many scars, mostly mental scars.

She had learned on her ride over here that her Father had died last year and that her brother was now King.. And yet no one had come looking for her. No one had answered the ransome missives sent either. She had been given away to secure her Brother's station as King.

This hurt, this knowledge she had carried for most of the last three years. She was expendable, worthless, and it destroyed the last threads of her innocence. She now knew what she had to do in this life...

The boat was pulled up the shore and pushed deeper into the wet sand. The three men accompanying her helped her off the boat and waited for payment. She nodded to them and pointed to the towering castle seen above the trees. "Your payment awaits you there. Let's go.." She started off, walking. A princess, walking?! Her station in life, but far from her due. She'd see all the wrongs were righted, all the pain she went through compensated for.

Vengence would be sweet, her goal accomplished even sweeter. She had learned alot on her 'journey', suffered things unmentionable at any time. She'd use her whorish knowledge to get ahead. She had not seen her loving little brother in many years, not since she vanished, but she saw him as guilty as her father for what was done to her.. How she was left to suffer indignities, pain, tortures, starvation... She was an empty shell now, bent on one thing.

They walked their way to the castle gates which stood open. Mid-morning, her brother would be holding court. Judgements and hearings, punishments and such. She knew he was in for a shocking experience. She had learned he thought her dead, she smiled a little. The dead had risen again. She pulled her cloak tightly around her, shielding her face from curious eyes that followed her regal movements. They never did beat that out of her. Her breeding shown with each and every step and movement, but who was she? Many of the peasants didn't know, nor knew who would be coming to see their King. They watched but did not approach the woman as she moved through the court yard and into the main hall.

Two men were bickering over a broken bridal agreement. Her brother sat on his throne listening as closely as he could, his patients was amazing. She would have easily sent them both home with hefty fines for troubling their King with some thing so trivial. She waited, standing in the back of the hall, she'd wait before approaching the throne.

I sit on the thrown lessoning to the men argue only half paying attention having learned to make people think I was more interested then I was. A skill vital to a king if he would retain his sanity my father had told me once after a particularly long section of this nonsense. I finely raise my hand silencing the men as if I had yelled at them. I then tell them what was to happen my voice smooth as silk but steely hard showing that I would have no arguments. I smirk as I see that neither of them was truly happy with my verdict but it was just and even if it wasn’t once I sed it there would be nothing for them to do.

I lean back in my thrown still not totally comftable in it having never looked forward to taking my fathers place. My eyes unfokesing as I remember my father’s death a hunting accident his horse was startled and thrown him the fall breaking his neck.

I close my eyes pushing the memory back not wanting to remember that I no longer had a family even the hope that my sister had been taken from me my father told me that she had died a year before his death. I had wanted to go avenge her but my father had forbidden it telling me that it would up set the new treaties.

I open my eye then looking over the assembled men and women all come for my intervention. I sigh such petty arguments but it was my dotty to leson and pas my judgment. I had to show the peasants that I was just to keep there loyalty. My eyes linger on a hooded figer in the back. I frown as something about the persons stans tickled a memory as if I should no who it was.

I shake my head sadly and motion for the next group to com and ask of me what they will. I put the interested mask back on my face even as my eyes linger on the clocked person in the back standing in front of two men who stand protectively behind the strange person.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

Two more cases were viewed before the new King asked if there was anything else on the schedule for this morning. His advisor shook his head negatively, "No my King." He folded up some papers and moved to stand.
Thats when she took it upon herself to step forward.
"Yes, there is something else.. May I step forward my King?" She spoke softly, her head bowed respectibly, but all of it a ploy. For now she would be the perfect sweet innocent dear lost sister.. For now.

When he nodded his head she moved forward. The two men flanking her walked with her, staying behind until she stopped before the king.

She looked up then, the cloak still hiding who she was, until she reached up and removed her hood from her head. Her blonde locks shone brightly and hung down. Her large expressive blue eyes were still the same, only matured. Her bow shaped lips parted a little as she smiled.

"I was curious to know if my brother had a moment to repay these kind men for returning me home?"

 

[nightray]

Robert

I watch as the clocked person speaks her voice pulling at old memories. I frown I should know her. I think to my self as she walks to stand before me. My eyes widen with shock as the hood falls away from her face. Shock covers my face as I stumble to my feet. I don’t even notes the gasps from the people around me they all thought she was dead that’s what my father told me and them.

I walk slowly in a daze toreds my sister my eyes never leaving her face. “I I thought…” I say faintly my voice trailing off. My hand tentatively reaches out to her chin afraid that she would disappear if I touched her. “How..?” I can’t find the words the shock of seeing her alive over whelming me.

I finely shake my head and look at the two men nodding my thanks to them then motionng to my attendant to take car of paying them what they deserve for bringing my sister back to me. I then look back down at my sister looking in to her eyes my hand still lightly touching her check.

I lean down and gently kiss her forehead the way she used to do to me when she was taller then I. I smile warmly amazement at having her hear and soled still in my eyes. “I missed you… I” I sighs still unable to say more. I look down then a frown moving over my lips. “Father’s dead.” I say softly my shoulders bowing under the wait that was thrust upon my unwilling shoulders.

I look back up in to her eyes straitening my shoulders. “Com on sister we need go and talk.” I take her hand heading to the hidden door behind the throne.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

"Yes, let's go discuss this privately." She nodded her head, saying nothing. His look of shock at seeing her gave him no quarter. He knew.. They all had known where she was, the ransome note had come back with her father's bold scrawl across it, denying payment.
She let him escort her out of the main hall where once the door was closed the loud noises could be heard of astonishment and curiousity. The guards moved to block the door, she could hear their clammoring against the doors. They were in a quiet chamber now where a beautiful blonde woman sat waiting.
"Robert!" She exclaimed as she rose from her chair. Tiny and dainty, the strange woman moved towards Robert and held out her hand to him. Lena watched with little amusement, not liking the woman instantly.
"And who is this brother?"
"Brother!?" The blonde goddess gasped, looking shocked as Robert had moments ago.
"Yes, he is after all my brother.. And you are?" She could not keep the frost from her voice, not liking their 'happy reunion' interrupted by some tart.

 

[nightray]

Robert

I clear my throat nervously at the tone of my sister voice I new that tone she wasn’t happy to see my wife. “Sister this is Tonya my wife.” I say blushing slightly. “Are father arranged it shortly after you where taken.” I shrug self concisely. I clear my throat putting my arm around Tanya pulling her close giving her a modest kiss on the lips.

“Darling why don’t you leave me and my sister alone for now.” I give Tanya a playful pat on her ass before she bowes her head to Lena. She then sways out of the room to attend to her own court of ladies. I smile slightly as I watch her walk out her hips swaying in an alluring way promising of things to com later. I smile at the thought she is very good in bed.

I turn when the door closes behind her then I walk over to a large gilded cushioned chair. I sit down putting my feet up on a foot stool in front of me. I look at my sister still not buleaving that she’s really her with me.

Images of the last time I saw her replaying in my minds eyes the frustration and anger at not being able to help her closing my throat. I clear it then as I realize that I’m staring at her as she stands watching me the look in her eyes is unfamiliar to me but I block it out not wanting to think any thing was wrong.

I motion to a chair across from me “Take a set big sister we have much to talk about.” I smile then the same smile I used to give her when we where growing up one that was full of as innocent love and mischief. I blink quickly keeping the tears from my eyes my father’s voice echoing in my head. “A king never cry’s it’s a sine of weakness and a king can’t afford to be weak.”

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

She sat demurely into the chair, crossing her ankles and folding her hands. She remembered her upbringing cyrstal clearly and would use it to aid her in this endeavor.
She eyed the wife, for all outward appearences she looked happy for her brother, but inside she was steaming mad. How dare they go on with their lives?! Leaving her to suffer at the hands of so many dark twisted men.. She wanted to shout at him but bit her tongue hard enough to draw blood.
She caught Robert watching her and swallowed. Smiling, she spoke softly, "It has been a long time hasn't it Robert? I did not expect to find Father dead.. nor to see you've wed already.. Any .." she gulped down the lump in her throat, wanting to cruse out loud. "Any children?" She smiled, faintly she let her eyes tear, her head hanging a little with mock sadness.
"I feel silly showing up now after all this time.. I just wanted to see you before..." She halted her words there.

 

[nightray]

Robert

Yes it has been a long time Lena too long I missed you so much.” I tilt my head my smile broadening slightly. My smile fades slightly at her question of children. “No children yet we’re trying but nothing as of yet.”

I frown at her as her head lowers and her words hit me. “What do you mean before and why would you feel silly coming home where you are welcome and always have been.” I say this in a sinser voice one that is hiding nothing.

I stand then and walk over to her crouching easily down on the balls of my feet infrunt of her. I lift her chin forcing her to look me in the eye. “What’s wrong sister why are you so sad. This is a day of celebration. There will be a home coming banquet and dance to celebrate this day.” I smile then my eyes bright with excitement and love for her.

I look down then my face falling. “I I’m so sorry I couldn’t save you from those bruts I tried I rely did.” My hand falls from her chin as the offal memories that have so haunted me sins her chapter moves threw my mind. I shake my head sadly “Father told me that he was taking car of it that the best hunts men where out looking for you.” I take a deep breath as I seek to calm my self.

I look back up in to Lena’s eyes mine full of pain. “Pleas for give me for not being able to save you I try.” I lean forward then my head resting in her lap as I try to regain control. I know that if any saw this now they would take it as a sign of weakness but all that’s hear is my sweet sister the one person who I was always able to confide in.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

This news he spoke of, about the huntsmen was something she had not heard of before now. Did father really send men? Or was he lying to Robert as well as her?
"Shhh... it's alright."S he spoke softly, pressing his head into her lap and stroking the fine hairs at the nap of his neck as she used to when he was a little boy.
"I do not wish to shame the family name by remaining here.. I would never want to embarass you, their king." She spoke softly, the hurt sounding clearly in her voice. A tear rolled down her cheek and splashed against his.
"I just thought to spare you the indignity of my presence here... They did unspeakable things..." She shuddered all over, letting him feel her reaction to those memories. They were erotic now in nature in her mind, but they weren't always that way before she learned.
"If you need me Robert, I will stay.." She said tenderly, bending down and placing a kiss on his cheek where he tear had landed.

 

[nightray]

Robert

I shiver at her touch as it brings better memories making the memories of her capter fade slowly. I feel her kiss on my cheek and the shudder that runs threw her body with the words. I don’t want to think of what they did to her the thought only saddens me more. I fors those thoughts out of my mind as her soft caressing hands soothes me.

I then straiten up still on the balls of my feet looking in to her eyes. “I don’t care what others think you are not an embarrassment to me or the family. What happened to you was not by your will.” My hand reaches out to her face cupping it as my thumb wiping her tears away.

I chuckle ironically as a firm look comes over my face. “Besides I’m the king now my word is law.” I smile my mischief’s smile then a twinkle in my eyes.

I stand then pulling Lena up to her feet in front of me. I look down at my sisters tattered and filthy clothes tilting my head slightly. “Well if I know you a bath and new clothes are in order.” I say my voice light and on the verge of another chuckle. I look back in to her eyes my eyebrow razed quesgeningly. “And no more talk of you leaving your home is here with me.” I pull her in to a tight hug then lifting her off her feet.

I put her down chuckling softly feeling slightly giddy at having her home agene. “Your old rooms where left the way they wear…” I stop then not wanting to mechion that horrid day.

I turn to the doors then yelling for the squire that I new was waiting just out side for my slightest command. “Go tell the maids to reedy the bathes and open my sister’s rooms up and start dusting them.” The boy bows deeply and darts off to do as his king commands of him.

I then take my sisters arm in mine leading the way threw the halls to her rooms. I notes the looks that the servants give her some disapproving and others questioning not recognizing her. I ignore them all not caring just happy to have my sister under my roof once agene.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

"As you wish Robert.." her plan could not be going any better than it was at the moment. She would let him pamper her, let him ease all her upset and hurt, or try too.
First things first, the wife had to go. Already a plan was forming in her mind as he strolled her down the hallway towards her old rooms.
"Do you reside in Father's suit now Robert?" She was curious as to where he slept. Her mother's old chamber was next to her own, then her father's. Robert's was across the hall directly from her own, either case he would be close.
"I do need an assistant, but do not know any of the women here serving.. Perhaps I could hire one of the men who escorted me home to fill some of those needs?" She quieried gently, her hand wrapped around his arm and holding tightly.
She smiled as he turned to face her at her doors, "I have missed you brother, very much so. It is good to be home." She gave his hand an affectionate squeeze, trying hard not to dig her nails in and take his innocent blood as her had been drawn.
"We do not have time for gowns to be made for this celebration Robert.. Can we wait for a day before celebrating? I know it is much to ask of you, but I do not think my old clothes would fit?" She pulled her cloak off revealing she indeed now had the curves of a full grown woman. Very nice curves, it was what got her into a high position across the sea.
She let his eyes taken in her from toe to head and back down, his gaze thoughtful a moment. She closed her cloak again and blushed a little, again a trick she knew how to use and use well. When she had left she had been a slight willowly thing, now she was anything but that.

 

[nightray]

Robert

I smile as we walk feeling her worm hand in mine still amazed that she’s real her hand squeezing mine was the proof. She asks if I’m sleeping in are father’s rooms. I nod absently that I was. “I moved in the day of my coronation. It was expected of me.” I shrug self conchisly.

I frown looking down at her as she asks about hiring one of the men that escorted her hear to serve her. I shake my head surprised at the mere thought of a man serving her. “No they aren’t worthy to serve you. Don’t get me wrong I’m happy they brot you back but they are outsiders and men.” I say in a slightly scolding tone. “We’ll hire some new servants for you, but for now you can share my wife’s until some suitable once can be found for you.”

My sister faces me in front of her room’s doors asking if we can postpone the celebration for a few days so she can have some gowns made sins her old clothes would be too small. To emphasis her wards she opens her clock reveling how much she has grown sins the last time I saw her. My eyes move up and own her body taking in the sweet curves of her body even in these tattered clothes she looks gorges with all the right curves. I swallow as I think that she’s even better looking them Tonya.

I swallow then nod my head with agreement. “Yes we can pospon the festivities a few days it would give me time to see that the celebration is suitably planed and all the right nobles are invited.” I smile warmly. “I’ll have the seamstresses sent up in a few hours to give you time to take a nice bath and get cleaned up.” I lean forward then and gently kiss her cheek. “I’m so happy to have you home.” I say in a soft loving voice.

I turn as the doors to her rooms open the servants bowing when they see use. “The room is reedy my lord my lady.” They say before slipping away quietly.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

She nodded and excused herself. Spending the next few hours bathing, being pampered and measured, she was finally able to get some time to herself.
Her mind worked in over time, she had to do something about the 'little' problem. Tonya. She had to go. There was no other option open to her but that. But how? That was the real trouble, figuring out how to rid one of a pesky little wife.
As she lay in bed a plan began to form in her mind and with it a devilish little grin. The party was the perfect opportunity to be rid of Tonya once and for all.
She went to sleep with a sick smile on her face, tomorrow would be a brighter day.....


In deed it was. She had seamstresses at her door as soon as she awoke, breakfast served to her in bed and a new assistant to help her get rid of Tonya.

She wandered aimlessly about for awhile until she found Robert in her Father's old study.
"Good morning, I trust you slept well?" She asked shyly from the door. "Am I disturbing you Sire? I can.. go.." She motioned out the door, keeping her head down as if she was timid and unsure of her surroundings and place here.

Robert

After my sister go’s in to her room to fretion up and get reedy for bed. I walk down the hall down to the rooms that Tanya is entertaining the ladies of the corte. I open the door looking in on them smiling as I see Tanya sitting in the center of the women socking up there attention. I chuckle nodding to her before stepping out leaving her to her favorite pass time gossip. Before I left I herd my sister’s name several times.

I walk slowly threw the halls my face blank as I think of my sisters home coming going over who I should invite to the celebration. I enter my privet study taking down some parchment and dipping my feather pen in the ink writing quickly. I then summon the squire who always seemed to be near by handing him the parchment to be taken to the scribes to right up the invites.

I stand then and walk to my bed chambers. I look around seeing that Tanya wasn’t back yet. I frown as I shed my tunic tossing it absently to the ground. I take a set on a large high backed chair sitting in front of the large fire place. I put my feet up and ring a bell calling a made in with my nightly drink.

I smile at her kindly as I take the goblet from her my eyes moving to the leaping flames as I think of how my father cold have been so rung as think my sister had been killed. I frown as I sip the wine slowly feeling the stresses of the day slowly fading from me.


In the morning I get up quietly not disturbing Tanya I wore her out last night when she came in. I smile fondly at the remembered screams of delight that I got out of her before we both fell in to an existed sleep.

I move to the bathing chambers where a steaming tub is already waiting for me. I ease in to it as a made comes in and begins to rub me down washing my back for me. She then dries me off when I step out of the tub. I smile fondly at her knowing that she would be willing to satisfy any of my needs if I asked her to part of her duties to the king if required.

After I’m dry she helps me dress making sheer that the close mach and are properly clean before I put them on. I then quietly leave my bed chambers walking to my fathers study where paper work is already waiting for me to look over and sine where necessary. I sigh this is the worst part of being king all the paper work I have scribes who take car of most of it but there are some things that I can only approve or disapprove.

I look up slightly startled at hearing my sisters voice still not todily used to the idea of her being home at last. I smile warmly at her wards waving her in. “You’re not disturbing me I’ve always got time to talk to you.” I say softly leaning back in my set stretching my mussels from being hunched over and righting for so long.

“I’m glad you came this paper work is monotones I was needing a brake from it.” I smile broadly. “And yes I slept grate last night. I Hop you did as well.” My eyes watch her as she walks in taking a set. “So did you have fun getting some new dresses made for you?”

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

"Fun? With the dress makers? Surely you jest brother dear." She laughed lightly, "Everyone knows they are far from fun. Poking and proding.. So tell me what interesting people have you found to invite to this gala event?" She spoke softly, held herself properly, but only for now. Soon she'd show him what she was capable of. Just a little longer..

"I suppose that we're gossip now? What, with my return and all. Perhaps It would be best if I retired to mother's old estates in the south?" She proded, wondering if he would want to be rid of her. Another test, one she was curious to see a reaction to.

"Perhaps not, I have been away so long.. I just wish to spend time with my little brother.." She gave another light laugh, her eyes meeting his, "Of course you are no longer my little brother Robert.. You have grown up quite nicely.. Father must have.. Been proud?" Her fingers idly toyed with her bodice lace, drawing his eyes to her chest which threatened to escape the smaller gown she was borrowed.

"Come! Let's walk?" She rose from her seat, coming around the desk to take his hand in hers and tug on him. "Please? I have missed our time together desperately!"

 

[nightray]

Robert

I chuckle softly at Lena’s statement about the talers probing and poking. I had seen them fit Tonya a few times and so I understand. “I was just teasing you sister I know how the tailors can be.” Smile ruefully at the thought.

My eyebrows raise at the mention of her going to mothers old estate in the south. I shake my head firmly. “I won’t hear of it I just got you back I’m not letting you go yet. Not even if you get a marriage proposal tomorrow the man will just have to wait tell I’m reedy to give you up.” I shrug a ruffle grin on my lips. “What can I say I’m just greedy that way?”

I blush slightly at her comment about me not being little any more embraced that she noticed. I shrug self concisely as my eyes move to her hands playing with her bodes. I blush more as I realize that I’m looking right at her well formed chest her flesh practically spilling out of the top. I blink and move my eyes back up to her face feeling my face worming.

I clear my throat selfconchisly hoping my sister didn’t notes. “Well in my mind I’ll always be your little brother.” I say in a soft voice just slightly husky. I smile fondly at her as she stands taking my hand to go for a walk.

I fallow her lead letting her decide where to walk though I’m not surprised that she takes use out to the back privet gardens it was always her favorite place to spend the days no one was allowed back her with out the royal families permion. I look around at the neatly trimmed hedges and the bushes sculpted in to many deferent animal shapes. The sound of a fountain in the back ground soothing and tranquil.

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lena

"Yes, of course. Only you are not small any longer." She flushed a little, complimenting him was harder than she thought. He looked so happy, so normal. It sickened her to remember all she undured to get back home.
While she could not blame him, she felt she had the right. He had taken his father's place one year ago almost! In that time he surely had to see the missives sent between her owner and her father?! Surely he should have by now! So why did he not pay for her release? Was gold all that mattered?
"Forgive me, I am adjusting still." She moved towards her favorite bench and sat down. "The things that haunt me are the hardest to shake free of. Things that happened.. Were inhumane. But I will not get into this here and now, I just need time Brother. Time to feel normal again." She patted the bench beside her, offering him a seat.
"Tell me, how does marriage agree with you? You look happy, contended." She pasted on a smile and tried to search for a solution to the wife. She would let no queen rule her! She should have been queen! She was the eldest and by god's will, she would be!

I frown sadly at her mentioning of the things down to her sorrow in my own heart at thinking of such things. I sit next to her and put my arm around her shoulders pulling her close to me rocking slightly trying to comfort her as much as possible. “I’m so sorry I couldn’t save you that day how I wish I could go back and change things.” I rest my head on hers as I fight the tears that so desperately want to flow but my fathers wards and teaching is to strong.

“I was ready to go looking for you as soon as I woke up from that blow to the head but father forbad it saying that I couldn’t risk my life so being the air to the thrown. He ushered me that he had the best out already searching but they never found a trays it was as if you vanished off the face of the earth.” I sniff then embarist at my show of weakness.

I take a deep breath trying to calm my self. I chuckle then sadly “Marriage… It was arranged.” I shrug as I look up at the garden around me. “I cair for her and she is pleasing in bed. But I don’t truly love her like you hear of in ballads and stories. I think that kind of love and happiness is reserved for the comen foce who can choose for them selves. I do enjoy her company she do’s make me laugh and smile.” I shrug then and pull my sister closer to me.

Lena

She leaned into him, listening to him speak of his new wife. A plan forming in her mind as she relaxed in his comforting arms. It was no small accomplishment to relax in his arms. For the only man she was safe with in this world was her brother.
She knew it, she had yet to decide if it annoyed her or not. She smiled, nodding when expected, hugging him back when he hugged her. She even went so far as to lean her head onto his shoulder as if contented.
"We should have a huge ball brother dear." She smiled, the more people the merrier. The easier it will be to get dear sweet Queen Tonya..
"Single gentlemen should be invited as well Brother.. I will need to find a match soon won't I? However distasteful it is, I know your wife will not allow me to remain here forever." She moved from him then, standing to gaze back at her home. The one place that shouldn't feel like home, still did. She had so many happy memories here in this castle. She longed to remain here until her ghost haunted it's halls.
"The plans are in motion, did you send invitations Robert?" She took his hand, strolling along the small paths of their favorite garden. They played so often in this place.. Until Father deemed it unmanly for Robert and sent him to the school rooms.

I smile as my sister restes her head on my shoulder it’s ironic rilly for when we were kids it was I who leaned on her. I chuckle softly at her asking for a large ball it was like her she always did like that sort of thing.

“Of cores Lena this will be one of the biggest balls that we’ve seen in along time. I made up a list of people to com Tanya has also made up a list.” I shrug then as I think of single men for my sister. “As for finding you a husband I’m not in a hery for that I jut got you back I don’t want to get rid of you that fast.” I smile a little boy grin.

I look at my sister as she mentions Tanya not wanting her around for long. “Now why would you say such a thing sis?” I ask truly confused having never under stood the jealousy women can hold. “Tanya will accept you. You are my sister after all even if she didn’t like it she wouldn’t have any chois in the mater.” I frown agitated slightly at the thought of my sister being driven away for any reason.

I walk beside my sister enjoying the garden I haven’t been out hear in a long wile having not had the time to do so lately. I smile broadly as I hear the bark of my prized wolf hound. I wissal sharply chuckling as I see the large dog cum bounding threw the garden tordes me his long tong hanging out the side his mouth.

He stops in front of me looking up at me with adoring eyes his tail waging franticly. I pat him on the head feeling his tong lapping at my hand before he moves over to Lena sniffing at her curiously. “This is brutes my best wolf hunter.” I smile down fondly at the dog as he walk around my sister sniffing her cereusly,

Lena

"Do not fret brother dear.. I am sure she will accept me." She smiled, resting her hand on his. The barking and large animal coming her way reminded her of her father's hounds. It would have brought a smile if it weren't for who they reminded her of.

"Hello Brutis." She smiled, letting the dog sniff her hand before she scratched behind his ears. He began to grunt and wag his tale at her. Simple really, males were all the same. Just find their weak spot.. She smiled again, pasting it on as best she could and turned from Robert to head back.

"We are making party plans and decorations, well the ladies are. I have been sent out to.. well I do not know exactly. Would you like to ride brother? Perhaps swim? It is warm this time of year. Or perhaps escort me to the shore so that I may swim?" She wanted something to ease her boredom, and she needed to kill time until she met with the new stable hand. He had connections to one of the randiest knights in her brother's kingdom. Also knowledge of a special kind of drug that would effect Tonya quickly and thuroughly. Both things needed to be settled tonight.

Robert

I smile as I look up tordes the sun gagging the time. “Well sister mine we have time to go for a swim if you wish.” I chuckle softly as I lead the way back to the castle. I gesger to a squire to com he runs up to me keeping his eyes respectfully down. “Go my boy ready two hoarse my sister and I are going for a ride.” The boy bows deeply and runs in to the castle to do as I had bid.

I fallow him slowly flagging down some servant giving them messages to take to the nobles that I was to see this morning telling them that I was detained and I would talk with them later. I smile broadly as Tanya appears from a side passage moving tordes use her eyes looking at my sister a look on her face that I had never seen before.

She looks at me the look disappearing instantly as she smiles broadly at me. “So my lord what are you up to.” I smile back at her as I take her up in to my arms kissing her softly. “I’m going for a swim with my sister we have much to talk about it’s been so long.” Tanya smiles and looks over at Lena.

“Well my lord don’t be too greedy for I and the rest of the court is eager to talk with her as well.” She says in her sweet voice soft and seemingly genuine. She looks up at me then and moving up on to her toes she kisses me once agene. “Have fun my husband but remember we have much to do so don’t be all day.” She smiles and winks at me as she licks her lips in a suggestive way. I smile knowingly.

She then turns on her heals and walks down the hall slipping threw a door. I smile after her thinking of her hidden meaning behind her ward the sight of her tong exhilarating me. I shake my head then clearing my throat.

Lena

She sat astride the horse, watching the sea below beat against the shore line. It was a beautiful sight to behold and for a moment brought back the sweet memories of home. And then reality set in again and she shook herself out of it.
Watching Robert sit beside her, she was tempted to shove him over the cliff edge. Only trouble was his wife would succeed him on the throne, not herself. She had to rid herself on Tonya before hand.
"Beautiful isnt it?" She asked, tapping her horse and moving down the narrow trail slowly. The sure-footed beast had no trouble moving down safely, for this she was thankful.
They made it to the shore, she moved towards the water and began shedding her clothes as she went. She ignored Robert's gasps as her underwear was uncovered. Unlady like yes, but it was much easier to swim in.
Stockings, shoes, corsets, pentlettes, gown, tunic, all came off and landed in a pile on the shore. She stood in a thin camisole, bare foot and smiling out at the endless horizone. She wiggled her toes into the sand and then let down her hair.
"Coming?" She moved into the ocean easily and dove under. She learned to swim across the sea, one thing she could look back on with a friendlier memory. She resurfaced out a distance and dove again, swimming down to look at some beautiful shells littering the ocean's floor. Turning back, she swam to the shore and walked out. Setting down her treasure she grinned at Robert, knowing what he was seeing was her pretty much bare. "This is relaxing, you sure you aren't going to come into the water?" He still had not undressed, merely sat watching.
She had everything in order for tomorrow night, today she felt as if years were melting off of her, happiness coming back to her in an odd way.. A sick way really. But revenge was never pretty, nor petty. She'd either succeed or fail. Either way her life would change.

Robert

I watch in shock as my sister strips down to her under clothes as if I wasn’t her to witness. It I turn my head looking away from her as I lesson to the splashes of her swimming out in to the salty swells of the sea. I look around and find a stone out cropping near the water. I brush of a spot and sit watching her as she swims out pretty far. I feel anegchis wanting to call her back afraid some thing would happen.

I look away as she comes out of the water caring some shells from the sea floor. I blush as before I look away my eyes moved up and own her body taking it all in. Her large and beautifully shaped breasts outlined perfectly by her socking wet under garments. It looked as though her nipples were erect and large almost bagging to be sucked on. Her legs are long, pale, and perfectly shaped they looked strong and flexible.

I feel my self reacting involuntarily my cock growing hard from the breaf and exidingly taboo glimpse. I look back out at the ocean blushing that I had seen her like this and that my body was betraying me so agregesly. I can’t but help to think of the priestess reaction to such a sinful thing. It’s a good thing he would never be able to tell any one as he would be sealed to silents one of the most beneficial roles of the confessional.

”umm no sister it wouldn’t be proper for me to…” I trail of feeling my face grow wormer with embarrassment. I try to think of how she could be doing this in front of me she must have lost her modesty with the people she was with while in captivity.

I chuckle nervously as I look back at her locking my eyes on her face refusing to look any lower. “So you learned how to swim.” I smile warmly remembering that she had never been that strong of a swimmer before. I look away then agene not wanting to see her like this knowing that it was wrong.

I sigh as I lean back resting on my elbows as my eyes look out over the blue water. “So do you have any plans now that your back any thing special that you would like to do?” I ask as I watch the wave’s role in splashing agenst the rocks that I’m sitting on. I feel the spray waft over me cooling me as the hot sun beats down on use.
