I wrote this series of short stories a number of years ago (about 7 or
. I've posted them a few places, sharing them here too.
The soft echo of bootsteps on a stone floor polished by generations of feet echoed softly back to the Venusian Prince Consort as he walked calmly to the room where his Princess was meeting with the Jovian ambassador. It was nearly lunchtime and she would no doubt need "rescuing" from the otherwise arrogant woman. His white cape flowed behind him as he walked in a dignified hurry to reach her. Dressed in the armor of the Venusian Knight, he would have otherwise cut quite a path. Had he not already been married, that is.
The two members of the Venusian Royal Guard snapped to attention as he drew near, yet remained alert for any threats that there might be even in the depths of the Venusian palace. These were his men and women, having trained them up to a standard that he was happy with over the past couple of years. He could hear his wife's voice just faintly through the door as he got closer and he could sense even from this distance her unhappiness.
"I'm sorry, ambassador." Her voice sounded strained even as he pushed the door open without even a knock to announce his arrival. "But I simply can not . . . . " The conversation ended abruptly at his arrival, drawing a look of gratitude from his significant other and barely concealed look of contempt from the Jovian ambassador.
His eyes fell quite naturally onto his wife, her long blonde hair accented by the red hair bow that she'd taken to wearing just after their marriage. He could read the frustration in her otherwise flawless face and see it in her perfectly formed body. He also could read the look of gratitute in those glorious blue eyes of hers.
He didn't even spare the ambassador a glance as he paused just inside the doorway, not so conviently leaving enough room behind him for someone to slip past. "You have another matter that requires your immediate attention, Highness." He said to his wife, his eyes remaining fixed on her face.
Her face and eyes turned toward the other woman in the room. "Please excuse us, ambassador." She said with restrained politeness, making no move to get out of her chair. With barely a grumble, which would have hardly been diplomatic after all, the Jovian woman reluctantly left the room.
He pushed the door closed with his foot behind the Jovian and then held out his arms to his lover even as she slid to her feet.
"Thank you." She whispered into his shoulder even as he wrapped his arms around her and held her form fittingly against himself.
"You're welcome." He offered her a light kiss on the lips, which she eagerly accepted and returned with a second one, which lingered a bit longer.
"I can't stand that woman." She told him, her eyes locked with his. "She's insufferable."
"And I'm sure you wore your uniform just to impress her, my love." He chided her gently, giving her butt a light squeeze.
"Well, no." She made a face at him. "I thought I'd rub my rank into her face instead."
"You are terrible." He was unable to help but smile at her, an expression she returned. He could feel their energies slowly harmonizing again as they held onto each other.
"It's the company I keep." She replied lightly, having to stretch up just a bit to give him another kiss. "Why don't we go back to our chambers and unwind." She suggested, the twinkle in her eyes telling him exactly what she had in mind for unwinding.
"Your command is my delight." He gave her another kiss then relaxed his embrace on her so they could walk together back to their chambers. He kept his hip against hers, opening the door so they could slip out of the room. The two guards at the door fell into step discretely behind them even as they walked slowly, even loafingly, back to their rooms.
"Minako?" He said after they'd reached the privacy of their bedroom, having left their escort outside.
Her face and emotions both were curious, as they almost never used names. "What is it, Kou?" She asked softly, snuggling against him in the comfortable circle of his arms.
"Are you sure that we have to go to the Moon next week? I'd really rather stay here." He hadn't broached the subject with her yet.
"No, we really don't have to go." She sighed softly, hugging him tightly. "But for the sake of appearances we most certainly had better. The other Senshi and Knights will be there."
They held each other in silence for a moment more before she spoke again. "Let's get undressed and into bed." She said even as her arms went around his neck so she could look into his eyes.
"Of course." He could loose himself in those eyes if he wasn't careful. With a swirl of energy, his armor and her uniform vanished. They held each other naked for just a heartbeat before their normal clothes, an outfit that an Earther would have called a toga, reappeared.
Without hesistation, he reached up and slid the strap from her shoulder even as she did the same for him. Their toga-like outfit, which was all that they normally wore, landed at their feet almost simultaneously. He could only think then on how soft and warm she was, how very much he loved her so, and how happy she made him. She was a part of himself, joined mind and spirit by choice. Their love was eternal and when their bodies faded, their souls would join together and become one.
"Goddess, I need you." She whispered to him, pressing her lips hungrily against his.
"I will always love you with everything that I am." He whispered back to her, his fingers caressing her curves.
"And I will always be yours." She whispered back, slipping from his arms and taking his hand to lead him to their bed. The rest of their day would be devoted solely to enjoying their shared love.
She couldn't believe that it was him. That he'd finally returned to her. Sailor Venus clung tightly to her Venusian Knight as the aftermath of the battle that had brought the Knights awakened and into the fray. "I missed you." She whispered quietly into his shoulder, feeling the familiar strength of his arms around her.
"I'm here now." He whispered back, pressing a soft kiss into her hair. "And I'm not going to leave you."
She lifted her blue eyes up to meet his green ones, that hollow feeling of incompleteness that she'd felt since the day that she'd become Sailor V was slowly beginning to fade. She was barely aware of the other senshi and knights making their own greetings, her world having narrowed down to the man she clung to. "Can we go somewhere? Somewhere that we can be alone?" She stretched up just a little on her tiptoes and kissed him softly on the lips, which sent a little shudder of pleasure down her spine.
"Yes, I have an apartment not too far from here." He seemed reluctant to disengage himself from her but kept ahold of her hand as they hopped from rooftop to rooftop until they got to the alley that lead to his place. She was barely aware of the other senshi calling out to her and didn't even hear the communicator beep, so absorbed in his presence that she barely noticed anything.
Another hop/jump put them at a doorway and she found herself gathered in his arms again. She gave him another squeeze of a hug and turned her lips to his for a lingering kiss. She felt the swirl of energy around them as their transformations faded and she searched his eyes as the kiss finally broke.
He reached into the pocket of the simple grey sweats that he wore and produced a key which he used to open the apartment door. A light breeze cut down the alley, making her summer dress swish even as she followed him inside. She toed out of her loafer style shoes even as he closed the door behind them and locked it securely.
"I've been looking for you for so long." She wigged her way into his embrace again, resting her head on his chest so she could listen to his heartbeat. "I don't want to be without you even again, not for one moment. I want to stay with you. Forever."
She felt a kiss into her hair again, luxurating in the attention and felt his hands give her behind a soft squeeze. "I will always love you with everything that I am, my Princess." She heard him whisper to her.
"And I will always be yours." She lifted her head to meet his eyes, knowing that they'd whispered that promise in their last lifetime. A promise that would carry them until the universe itself ceased. "Take me to bed." She requested, returning her head to rest on his chest.
She felt herself being lifted up and she put her arms around his shoulders, her eyes fixed on his face. The bedroom of the small apartment was only around the corner from the living room and he returned her to her feet when they'd reached the side of the bed. "I'm so tired." She said, feeling very drained from the past couple days of activities and the whirlwind of emotion that their reunion had done to her. "I want to make love with you but tomorrow." Her eyes sought his face and he nodded slightly in response to her, his hands sliding from around her. "But tonight, I want to sleep with you. Just sleep." She clarified, slipping her dress from her shoulders and letting it settle to the floor at her feet.
She watched his every movement as he undressed himself, unfastening her bra and sliding it down her arms without removing his eyes from her. As she stepped out of her panties, he sat down on the bed naked and held out his arms to her. He'd known what she'd wanted without having to say a word.
She settled into his lap, sliding herself down onto his waiting erection, her arms going around his neck even as he took hold of her waist. She gave a little gasp as they joined, feeling complete for the first time in her life and saw the same wonder she felt reflected in his eyes. She wrapped her legs around his knees and he slid back into the bed, still with him inside of her.
"I don't even know your name." She said quietly as he stretched out flat on his back, resting her head on his shoulder. "I'm Minako."
"It's Kou." He told her, his arms going loosely around her shoulders.
"I love you." Her eyes caught his and then she closed them as he whispered the same words back to her, falling asleep only within a moment, with him still inside of her.
Minako came to slowly, rising gently out of her sleep. It was the best sleep, the most restful sleep, that she'd had in a very long time and she luxurated in it. She opened her eyes and found her head resting on Kou's shoulder, her body stretched out over his like a blanket. With a little smile, she pressed a soft kiss onto his chest over his heart. Completely content, she returned her head to resting on his shoulder to wait for him to wake up.
It wasn't very long before she sensed the stirrings of his emotions as he drifted toward conciousness as well. His fingers drifted up to the back of her head then down her hair until he cupped her butt gently. "Good morning." He greeted her with a whisper and she tilted her head so that her eyes met his.
"Good morning." She practically purred, sharing a smile with him. "How did you sleep? I slept absolutely marvellous." To emphase her point she stretched just slightly, the inner thigh of her right leg rubbing teasingly across his groin.
"Very well." She felt him press a kiss onto the top of her head and supressed a purring sound even as he continued to speak. "My memories seem to have come back."
"Mine too," she turned her gaze back to his chest and gave him another soft little kiss over his heart. "I dreamt of you, making love with you." She was unable to help but smile at just the thought, nevermind the memories.
"I dreamed of Venus," he whispered softly as he gave her butt a playful squeeze. "About when we spoke to the oracle after we were bonded."
The last word broke her train of thought in an abrupt and unpleasant fashion. "Bonded...." She whispered suddenly, sitting up involuntarily as the implications swept through her. She felt a tremor of fear and her eyes turned to his face even as the feeling faded.
His eyes took on a look of concern as he likewise sat up and enfolded her in the circle of his arms, as protective and possessive as always. And she liked it that way. "What's the matter?" The concern in his voice echoed the emotions she could feel from him.
"I was just thinking," she said softly. "That I don't know how to explain it to my mother." She sighed, rubbing her nose in the warmth of his shoulder. "That we need to be together every single night, for every moment we can." She fell silent, an immediate solution to the problem not coming to her.
She could practically hear the wheels turning as he likewise racked his brain to come up with a solution. After a long moment of silence, he buried his nose into her hair and breathed deep. She could feel the contentment sweep through him as he luxurated in her. "Tell her the truth." He murmured into her hair.
Minako had to think that one over, not really sure it was a good idea but a better solution didn't seem to be coming to her. "I'm not sure that I should." She said quietly, turning her face to his.
She tasted his lips, loving and passionate as he gave her a lingering kiss. Instead of dwelling on the subject, he stretched back out on the bed and quietly began to fill her in on his life since he'd been reborn. She listened with eager ears, soaking up every detail and giving him encouragement with little kisses and caresses when he hesistated. When he'd finished, she did exactly the same thing. She told him of her life, his tender touch and soft kisses an encouragement when she had trouble continuing.
When she fell silent, she could feel the soft glow of his love for her. Unconditional and boundless. She knew that she felt exactly the same way for him. She gave a soft sigh, wiggling upward a bit so that her body covered his completely. She gave him a playful kiss, unable to help but share a smile with him. "All right, I'll tell my mother the truth. But...." She hedged just a bit. "You're going to have to come with me. Hold my hand and all that."
"Of course." She heard him agree readily, rubbing his nose against hers. "Quickie in the shower?"
"Absolutely!" She agreed, practically bouncing out of bed. She took his hand when he managed to join her and let him lead her to the shower. It was a rather simple bathroom and oddly enough there wasn't a shower curtain present. He stepped into the shower and she gingerly stepped into the tub after him. She giggled impulsively as he turned her until her back was against the wall and he pressed her tight against it.
"Fast and hard." She whispered into his ear as she wrapped her legs around his waist. She was already wet with anticiation and so he slid smoothly into her. It felt so much better than when she'd had to masturbate herself, just the feeling of him inside of her. Her body trembled as he filled her over and over again, driving into her just like she'd asked him.
She gave a moan as her orgasm finally came and her entire body trembled against his as his seed flowed into her, his own release coming with hers. It was better than she remembered and couldn't wait to do it again.
