Staring at the sleeping woman in his arms, Drey placed her on the bed gently and tucked her between the covers. Picking his robe he walked out closing the door quietly as he headed to the rooftop.
He sat at the edge, lost in thought as the darkness surrounded him. His hand was clenching and unclenching repeatedly. His mind was racing as his eyes narrowed.
Drey closed his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the cool air ease his tension. His mind was still running wild with thoughts, but he was slowly relaxing. He used to admire death with darkness as his constant companion, not knowing his true self.
But then Kira entered his life she was his light and slowly showed him a side of the world he never saw before.
Rico's voice interrupted his thoughts approaching from the small door leading to the rooftop. He sat next to Drey and they gazed into the darkness together, only to see blackness that surrounded their world.
"You knew it, Rico? Drey asked.
"I did but not all," Rico responded.
"What was the deal with grandfather?" Drey asked again.
"He help me in saving Trina," Rico responded. A tear escapes his eyes as his heart felt heavy. Drey patted Rico on the back until he calm down. Even though Trina was a strong lady, he didn't wish for her to be near Dany.
Drey can relate to how devastated Rico was when Trina was kidnapped.
They started talking the recent events.
A loud door slam interrupted their conversation and they saw a shadow moving.
It was a secret door as most people in the castle use the stairs to reach the rooftop. They swiftly used signs and move to the door, separate at the entrance.
As Rico took the lower stairs he stumbled upon a piece of cloth. Looking at the closed doors and windows he frowned.
Drey's ears detected the small footsteps behind the pillar, he moved following the figure where it stopped on the ground floor. Walking towards the person Drey was stopped with mockery laughter. He froze, his face was covered, and the voice... The person stopped laughing and said,
"We will meet again Drey." Saying that he threw the black shawl on Drey's face. As soon as Drey uncovered his face the person had disappeared. Rico walked to the main hall coming in conducted with frustrated Drey.
Drey and Rico didn't find the person who had been watching them on the rooftop. They found a piece of cloth that was different from what was typically used in Rivea, which led them to believe that there was someone from outside their kingdom present.
Matching the piece of the cloth on Rico's hand with the shawl they halt. Two different people watching them!
As this idea struck their minds they stared at each other and looked upstairs. Without goodbyes, they run back to their chambers. Drey found Kira comfortable sleeping he held the door as he sighed deeply. Closing the door he walked inside. Watching her sleep he climbed the bed and brought her to his embrace. They both didn't want to alert the guards, at least when they don't know who are after them.
The next morning Drey woke to find Kira was already out of the bed. He went to the bathroom and found the birth tub filled with warm water and mountains herbs.
He soaked himself feeling the herbs soothe his aches and bruises. As he was about to get out, Kira walked in.
She stood dumbstruck before evading her gaze from his tempting body. The droplets of water slid from his hair down to his chest, the image was engraved in her mind.
" I know am handsome you just have to say it." Drey's hoarse voice startled her. " I didn't know the bath was prepared for two, I would have waited," Drey said with a playful smile.
Drey let her admire him all she wanted. Until she heard her.
"Sick people shouldn't be soaked in water for long,"
"Am not sick," Drey protested.
"You are," Kira replied.
"Then help me dry," he requested shamelessly.
Kira's mouth opened and then closed. "It would have been an honor to help His Highness but I wouldn't like to keep Lady Trina waiting," Kira said trying to escape.
"Are you avoiding me, Kira Winger?" Drey asked, stopping her from leaving. He picks up the towel lying beside the bathtub.
"Why would I do that to His Highness?" Kira asked her hand on the door nob.
Kira shook her head and then nodded she didn't even know anymore. She opened the door only for it to be slammed shut.
She hadn't even heard his footsteps. Kira was turned unexpectedly her face hitting his bare chest her hands on his shoulders. Drey rubbed her sore nose before getting hold of her hands.
He placed it on his upper abdomen as he helped her caress him throwing his head back they longed for each other's touch. The yearning he saw in her eyes caressed him for a while go he felt it with her hands. She drew small circles around his chest earning a growl from him.
His body tightens her seductive body settling on his shaft, he rubbed himself on her hips and felt the softness through her dress, Kira felt the poking of the shaft grow hard and strong as the heat in the bathroom raised. He whacks her bottom and she moaned.
Drey tried to calm his little brother not to scare her when her body jerked towards the tip.
He tightly caught hold of her hand which surprised her, he let go and move backward. Kira's blue eyes captured Drey's gaze, holding him transfixed.
"Leave now!" His low magnetic voice jolted her up. Thinking that the lady would leave him alone Drey turned away holding the walls.
He felt her tiny little hands on his waist, "damn it, Kira," he cursed. "You are making it difficult for me."
Drey had never felt this hopeless before. The two living things were bringing havoc in his head. On the other side, Kira tightly hugged him placing her hands just above his shaft while the cobra wanted to tear her apart. The cobra felt a sense of belonging wherever she holds him.
"I won't leave you alone," Kira whispered on his back her hot breath making the cold animal in him basked with pride in the sunlight.
"Please, Kira.." Drey begged and pray the woman would run out but she had made up her mind. His eyes alternated from black to grey and then turn darker.
Holding his breath he turned her around and hugged her back. "Will you let me wear my clothes Her Highness?" He asked his nose on her hair. He had warned himself not to smell the scent but he couldn't help it.
"Unless you want to take Chard's work, I wouldn't mind it," Drey had a playful smile.
"Y-you want me to..?" Whispered Kira. "You are truly insane!" Of course, he could come up with such a proposal; what had she expected?
