moment before biting them and saying "Mmmmm why sure. But I still don't know, I don't want to be disappointed." She smirked. This made me even more angry at her. Without realising what I was doing I whipped my pants off, leaving me only in my underwear. "Hmmm. Now see? You can't take the heat is all," I winked at her. She got a devilish look on her face before standing up and limping over to me. Rae only came to about my chin. She was just inches from my face before say, "Try me." I then closed the space between us and grabbed her by the waist, making her gasp. I looked into her eyes and said wryly "You can't take it at all, you're too scared." My lips twisted into a playful grin as her face looked annoyed.
She knew I was calling her bluff and didn't know how to counter attack. She then snaked her arms around my neck before pulling my face to hers. We were touching noses. Her hands twisted in my hair, playing with the it at the nape of my neck. This playful act slowly but surely turning us both on. "Oh, I wouldn't be to sure about that," she whispered. She closed her eyes and brushed her lips ever so slightly before pulling back giggling. I couldn't take it any more. The look on her face, so sexy and turned on, made me fling my lips to hers. I kissed her hungrily as she let out a soft moan into my mouth. I smiled as we kissed each other, obviously not going slow at all. I kissed her hard, my hands moving from her waist to her hips. Rae moaned once more and arched her back, kissing me just as rough as I was her. She'd been waiting for this too?
Rae gently pulled my hair, making me moan softly and hold her tighter, pulling her even closer. I picked her up by her legs, not breaking the kiss as she wrapped her legs around me. We were chest to chest, kissing intensely. I broke the kiss for air, kissing her jaw line down to her neck, to her collarbone, gently sucking. She started breathing harder and moan softly. I walked to the edge of the bed before plopping her down onto it. She looked up at me, breathing hard and biting her bottom lip, waiting for me. I crawled onto the bed, hovering over her before she couldn't take it any more and leaned up to kiss me. My hands travelled up her thighs, past her underwear, up her shirt to her stomach. She bit my bottom lip and opened my mouth more, letting her tongue slip into my mouth. Out tongues danced together, exploring each others mouths until we needed to breath.
I finally built up the courage to take the night shirt off, leaving her breasts exposed. I kissed from her lips to her neck, down her breasts to her stomach and then back up again, stopping at her breasts. I kissed them lightly, nibbling and sucking. She arched her back again, pulling my hair as our lips met again. Her nails were lightly digging into my back sending chills up my spine. It fealt so good. I reached one hand up to her breast, playing with her taut nipple. She moaned again as she flipped me over, she straddled me. She kissed my neck, gently sucking and biting. I let out a small moan that seemed like a growl. She smiled as her hands went exploring. Rae explored everywhere and so did I until one hand was behind my neck and the other rubbed past my boxers. I moaned and flipped her over. She had made me hard....damnit! I kissed down to her stomach again until I started slightly pulling down her underwear. She gasped and stopped me. The Queen of The Reds

* Rae *

I gasped as Xander started pulling down my underwear. I pushed him away and reached for the nightshirt self conscious. I turned away from him and [ut it on, I quickly looked at him. I could tell he was mentally slapping himself for what happened. Maybe I wanted that to happen, I did, just not now. I wanted to know him better. I closed my eyes tightly, a tear streamed my face as I sucked in a breath. Xander must have seen this because he came rushing over cupping my face. "I'm so sorry Rae," he said, "I didn't know what came over me. This was a mistake, I'm sorry." He sounded as if he was fighting back tears. I sniffled and looked up at him. He wasn't crying or about to, he just looked so very ashamed and sad. I suddenly felt as bad as he did. I attempted to smile, obviously it didn't work hence the word attempted. I put my hand over one of his and kissed him softly. "It's ok," I said softly. He smiled weakly at me and I smiled back.
We both got up from the bed and went on getting dressed. I flung the nightshirt over my head, not caring that Xander was in the room. I looked over at him and noticed him staring at me. I blushed and looked away. He laughed and came over, pulling my close to him, his arm around my waist. He put the other hand on my face. I smile and wrapped my hands around his neck. "You so beautiful Rae, I never got a chance to tell you," He said. My face turned a deeper shade of red as I bit my lip and giggled softly. He laughed too and kissed me tenderly. "Get dressed silly," I said. We continued getting dressed as the guard Gilberto came into the tent.
"Your mother is on her way Your Highness," he said. "Thank you Gilberto," Xander nodded. Gilberto bowed at both of use and left the tent. Xander let out a somewhat frustrated sigh and rubbed his face. He looked stressed. "What's wrong?" I asked. "My mothers coming, that's what's wrong. And I don't know how I'm going to explain this," He said flicking his finger from me to him. I guess his mother must have issues with Zander and girls. I felt sympathetic for him. I felt his pain. My mother hated the equation of me and boys. "Hmmmmm, I think we can make it work though. She won't be that bad will she?" I asked. He laughed sarcastically. "You'd be surprised, My mother is insane I swear." Just then we heard trumpets sound. We both knew she was here. Xanders face turned smug and he sighed again saying, "Oh goody, mothers here."

Frowned Upon

I was not ready to experience Xanders mother. Not one bit, and so soon either. We walked out of the tent to see five horses being brought down to the creek. I exhaled, I was so nervous. I looked over at Zander, taking his hand and squeezing. He looked over and gave me a sympathetic smile. I was freaking out! Zanders mother was a freaking QUEEN for crying out loud! I was dying on the inside. I looked around me, I couldn't see her yet. All of a sudden we both hear, loud and clear, "Xander! Child come here this instant." Xanders face turned grimm and dark. "Coming mother," he grumbled. He started walking, holding my hand and taking me with him. I pulled back,"N-No, I don't think it's a good idea if I go over and see her. I'll just wait in the tent." Xander looked at me confused. "Don't be silly, she'll like you I promise." He said with a reassuring smile. I just nodded and went along with it.
His mother ended up coming to find Xander instead. We bumped right into her actually. "Xander wha-," but she didn't finish her sentence. She just stared at me with a very disgusted face. I mean, I guess I could understand. I was in clothes from the day before and they were dirty and what not. I walked up and bowed to her saying, "I-it's very nice to meet you, Your Highness." I bowed my head low. Xander came over and lifted me up from the ground. "There's no need to bow Rae. It's ok," he whispered in my ear. "Well Zander I beg to differ. She will bow to me, just look at her, she's so vile!" The queen snapped. "Now come here and give your mother a kiss," she said leaning her cheek in his direction. This made Xander angry. "Mother! Shut your insolent mouth! How dare you talk to the woman I love that way!" He yelled. Woman he loved?! Jeez, his mother looked just as shocked as I was! But yet, I smiled and grabbed his hand.
"Woman you love?!" his mother shouted."This girl is nothing more than a scullery made if anything! I forbid this Xander. You're never to see her again! GUARDS!! SEISE HER!!!" At this time, Zander took me and we ran into the forest. The guards weren't far behind but we still kept as much distance as possible. I was terrified, would she kill me? Lock me up so Xander could never see me? I was so very scared. We made it to a clearing when Zander took out his sword and handed it to me. MY eyes grew wide as I said, "I can't take this! What am I supposed to use it for?" "Rae, I love you. But you must run. Run with all your heart away from this place. I will find you I promise." I started to cry. "I can't leave you Xander! I just can't," I sniffled. He grabbed me and hugged me hard. He then took off the bear paw necklace and tied it around my neck. I pulled back a little bit and kissed him with everything I had. I couldn't lose him, not now! I just found him! "I love you Rae, now go!" he shouted. "I love you too, and I WILL see you again,I promise." I reassured him. He touched my face and smiled weakly. I kissed his hand and ran off into the forest, leaving him there, heartbroken. I cried as I swiftly ran as fast as I could to safety.
