Bloody dreams of you

@ katahdin
Cassia moaned as Thibault pushed into her. She gasped and pushed back against him. She moaned more as he pulled on her hair until their eyes met. She had never felt anything like this. Cassia felt the heat creeping over her skin as he trust into her and she was helpless only able to feel the pleasure he created. "Thibault!" moaned his name her knees getting shaken as the pleasure took her over.

---

Zane smiled looking her over. She came over to him and he took her hand. He smiled looking her over as he took her other hand. "You are stunning." he said and turned to the long piece of fabric he had placed down for a moment. He turned to Lynore. "Will you?" he asked her and she blushed and smiled in surprise. "I would love too." she said stepping forward taking the fabric. Zane smiled at Rosemarie. "Bonding is more than a promise it is a true connection of body and spirit. The pleasure and pain are equally felt by each of us. The satin will tie our bodies together but it is up us to tie our spirits together. It is with this commitment in mind that I pledge to protect and love you with all that is with me until death do we part, I pledge to bring you joy and comfort, to bring you a life worth living for." he said and nodded to Lynore. She started to wrap the satin around his arm and slowly down his hand stopping before she got to Rosemarie. "This is where you will need to pledge about taking care of me in the daylight and to give yourself over to me, however you would like to say that." he said softly. As Rosemarie spoke Lynore started to wrap the satin around her hand so that by the time she had finished speaking the satin was wrapped around them both and Zane pulled Rosemarie in and kissed her deeply to seal the bond.

@ Jinx...

Thibault thrust into her roughly, groaning as he neared his climax, leaning down to kiss her deeply. Soon enough he reached his high, panting as he supported himself against the wall, holding her securely to his chest in case her legs gave out.

---

Rosemarie blushed as he spoke, tears of joy welling in her eyes as she gazed up at him. She cleared her throat a bit when it was her turn to speak, gazing up at him adoringly as she squeezed his hand. "Zane.. I promise to protect you and care for you in whatever way I can, as you have done for me. I love you, and I promise to do so for as long as I live." She murmured softly, wrapping her free arm around his neck as they kissed, smiling happily against his lips, all her worries melting away.

@ katahdin
Cassia screamed as her climax hit her causing his and she felt her kneed lock then give out as he pinned her to the wall. She panted laying her hot cheek against the cool wall. She closed her eyes trying to get her breathing back under control. "Wow." she said and then chuckled as her mind started to clear. She looked back at Thibault and smiled kissing him softly. "Is it often like that?" she asked him feeling like her libido had only increased. She giggled and pushed against the wall standing and straightening her cloths out. She looked up at him and blushed. She grinned and grabbed the brush going back to the horse. "You're a lucky boy." she whispered to the horse and grinned at Thibault over the horse placing kiss to the horse and brushed him down. He was a calm horse. She would like to ride him for sure. He was a beautiful horse too. "What is his name?" she asked Thibault.

---

Zane beamed and stepped back carefully uncoiling the satin and handing it back to Lynore. "Put that in something nice." he said and she nodded scurrying off. Zane turned to Rosemarie and swept her off her feet. He chuckled and took her out into the hall that was now lit with pretty lantern and white rose petals down the hall leading to their master sweet what was safe for them to stay in for as long as they like. Champagne and fruit was set up in the corner on coolers a covered pan as well. Zane gently set Rosemarie down in the floor of red flower pedals that covered their room. He grinned as he closed the door. "Would you like some champagne?" he asked as he walked over to the display. He picked up one of the chocolate covered strawberries silently offering it to her as well. He took a bite of one and took off his jacket setting over the chair and unbuttoning his top before rolling his sleeves up and looking at her int he the candlelight that had been set up. It was stunning really and he was glad because he wanted to give this romance to her.

@ Jinx...

Thibault held her close until he was sure she could stand on her own, adjusting his own clothes as he grinned at her, still catching his breath as he followed her, patting the horse gently on the neck. "His name is Argonaut. He's a good boy, but I prefer his sister, Minerva."

---

Rosemarie giggled softly as he carried her, eyes widening in awe as she saw the rose petals and the beautiful room. She followed him over to the little tray of fruits, nodding a little when he asked if she would like some champagne. "Yes please.." she murmured softly, taking the strawberry from him and taking a bite, humming a little at the taste. She smiled as she looked around the room, trying to take in everything, wanting to remember this night forever, not noticing as he admired her in the candlelight.

@ katahdin
Cassia smiled. "Is Minerva your horse then?" she asked curious when he last time he went riding was. She was thinking if there was some low light that wouldn't hurt his eyes they could at least go for a little trot through the gardens or something. She would have to talk to Madeline to see what they could make happen for him. If she lad to light up the entire property with backlights she would jut to make this available to him again.

---

Zane grinned and poured them each a glass handing hers to her. He took off his shoes then sat in the chair sipping the champagne. "You're glowing." he said softly. "Did you not expect all of this?" he asked her. To him this was more than a bonding ceremony. He knew for her this was a wedding and he couldn't give her the big reception and the months it took planning a wedding but he could give her as much romance that was available to him. He grinned sipping his drink.

@ Jinx...

Thibault nodded, moving out of the stall down to another where a pretty white mare with grey and black speckles was munching away on some hay. He smiled when the she animal nudged her head against him, pulling an apple from seemingly no where to give to her as he pat her neck and whispered softly to her.

---

Rosemarie took her glass and took a few sips, shaking her head a little as she looked around the room once more before looking back at him. "No.. I didn't... It's so beautiful, Zane.." she whispered softly, moving to sit in the chair next to him, taking another chocolate strawberry.

@ katahdin
Cassia smiled as she watched him with the horse. "Wow I am almost jealous." she said and leaned against the door watching him. She had never seen him like this. "Did you know sometimes I use to sneak out of my room and come sleep in the stable loft?" she asked him bitting her lip.

---

Zane grinned. "Well I know what marriages are usually like now a days. I wanted you to feel like that as much as I could give you." he said and sipped his drink. Zane set his drink down after a moment his fingers running up her arm feather soft.

@ Jinx...

Thibault smiled sheepishly, pressing a kiss to the horse's forehead as she nuzzled her head against him. "You should be jealous." He teased, grinning a little as he looked over at her. "I believe Madeline mentioned it once or twice. I can't imagine you liked it in here because of the smell, though."

---

Rosemarie blushed and smiled, taking another few sips of her drink and finishing her strawberry before setting the glass down, leaning back in her chair as she gazed at him adoringly. She shivered a little when his fingers ran up her arm, smiling happily at him. "I love you.." She murmured softly, feeling like she had said it a thousand times already, but she desperately wanted him to know that she meant it.

@ katahdin
Cassia laughed. "Looks like my competition doesn't care your mine." she winked at him and smiled as he mentioned her childhood get away. "Of course she would." Cassia chuckled. "I actually find it soothing here." she said and blushed. "I don't mind the smell so much." she shrugged. "Madeline taught me to ride after a couple times and I would go riding instead of running away." she said and chuckled softly.

---

Zane grinned and stood taking her hand and pulling her gently to his chest. "I love you too." he said and cupped her cheek kissing her gently at first letting her lavish in the kiss before intensifying it as the passion grew. He ran a hand slowly up her back so their bodies where pressed together. Zane ran his hands down her sides then back to her bottom caressing her sweetly.

@ Jinx...

Thibault nodded a little as he listened to her, patting his horse gently before moving back over to her with a small smile. "I used to love riding. I miss it, but I'm glad that I still get to keep horses around." He pressed a kiss to her cheek. "Come on. What do you want to do now?" He asked, heading for the exit of the barn.

---

Rosemarie blushed as he pulled her into him, wrapping her arms loosely around his neck as they kissed, gasping softly when she felt his hands on her bottom. She shuddered a bit, kissing him lovingly before pulling back slightly. "Zane..? I want to do this, I do, but... But would it be ok if we danced first?" She asked hesitantly, voice soft as she glanced down at the ground, worried he would be upset with her for interrupting their intimate moment with something so silly.

@ katahdin
Cassia grinned and kissed his cheek. "What fucking in the barn and taking a walk wasn't enough for you?" she teased. Cassia wrapped her arm around his and leaned into him as he started to guide her back to the mansion. "Let's go finish that letter for your sister." she said knowing he hadn't wanted to do that.

---

Zane smiled. "I love that idea." He stepped back turned over to a panel opening it up and turning on some pucks. He closed the panel and then turned back to her. "Is this okay?" he asked. It was slow romantic music. Zane moved back towards her and offered his hand to her offering to dance. He was glade she had suggested this. Once she placed her hand in his he pulled her gently back to him and caressed her as he started to sway with her letting them slowly dance to the music.

@ Jinx...

Thibault chuckled, guiding her back to the mansion slowly, enjoying the evening breeze and the sound of the crickets as they walked. "You were the one complaining about not doing anything." He teased, pressing a kiss to her cheek as they walked inside. "Yes, I suppose I should write that letter now.. And you're sure you don't mind helping?" He asked, hoping to get out of it if she didn't want to help him write it.

---

Rosemarie smiled nervously as she heard the music begin to play, nodding a little as she gently set her hand in his. She rested her head against his shoulder as they danced, closing her eyes contently as they swayed to the music, smiling happily to herself. "Thank you, Zane.. For everything.." She whispered softly, pressing closer as they continued to dance slowly around the room.

@ katahdin
Cassia chuckled and smacked his arm as they got back inside. "Nice try big guy." she said and kissed his cheek. "Come on lead the way and let's see how you started this letter." she said and followed him. They came to his desk and she found a comfortable seat slipping into it cuddling in looking like a lounging cat. She grinned at him. "Proceed." she giggled and watched him get everything he needed out.

---

Zane smiled. "Of course Rosemarie." he spoke softly and kissed her head. He was worried she was trying to stretch the time before they consummated with the dancing but he pressed it out of his mind. So what if she did it was normal. Zane cupped her cheek and waited till she looked up at him. "I would do anything for you my love." he spoke and kissed her gently.

@ Jinx...

Thibault sighed, walking to his desk and taking a seat, slipping on a pair of glasses before he pulled a few crumpled pieces of paper from the waste bin, scanning them over briefly before grabbing a fresh piece of paper to start the new letter. "I think the hardest part is how to start it... It's not like I can just say "Hello, sorry for not talking to you the past three hundred years, I've been busy. But I'd love for you to come visit sometime."" He huffed in frustration, leaning back against his chair as he looked over at her.

---

Rosemarie glanced up at him as he kissed her head, smiling a little as they danced. "I'm not stalling.. I promise." She whispered softly, closing her eyes once more as she snuggled closer. "I just... I know I'm nervous, but I don't want it to go by so fast. I want to remember it forever, so that I could tell..." She trailed off, biting her lip as she blushed a bit, having been about to say that she would tell their children, but she realized that they'd never discussed that, let alone the possibility of them having children, or him wanting children. She shook her head a little to dismiss it, smiling up at him when he cupped her cheeks in his hands. "I love you, Zane." She whispered after kissing him back gently, smiling up at him adoringly.

@ katahdin
Cassia smiled watching his nervous actions. She giggled as he huffed. "Now now you're forgetting a very important part." she said and sat up crossing her legs and propping her head on her knuckles, her elbows on her knees. "How about you start with hello, or her name. Then your first words should be, I am sorry. Just those words. Give it some space let her just see those words bold and strong and let her soak it in. The you need to explain what you are sorry for. Start with the big one then work your way down to not seeing her for so long. Then talk about how your married now and you would really love her to come visit us." she said giving him a rough outline to help him get started.

---

Zane smiled as she spoke and nodded. "I love you too." he said softly and held her close just dancing for a while. He hummed softly until it felt right. "Rosemarie." he said and smiled as their eyes met. "Let me make love to you my beautiful bride." he said softly running his hand up her arms. He understood her need to take this slow but the siring in his belly told him it was time. He needed her, he needed to be one with her, finally.

@ Jinx...

Thibault nodded a little as he listened, jotting down a few notes on one of the crumpled pieces of paper before starting on the new letter, reading the words aloud as he wrote.

"Bernadette,

I am sorry. I apologize for fighting with you when you wanted to marry that young man all those years ago, and I'm sorry that I had him sent away. I regret my actions everyday. I am also sorry that I haven't spoken to you all these years, and wish to see you again. I've recently completed the bonding ceremony with someone, and, if you would accept, I would like to invite you to meet her. I think you two would get along quite well.

I hope to hear from you soon
Thibault."

---

Rosemarie closed her eyes happily as they danced, looking up at him as he slowly came to a stop. She blushed at his words, shuddering a little as he ran his hands up her arms, biting her lip nervously as she looked up at him. Despite her nerves, she wanted to be with him, and didn't want to deny him when she had promised to give herself to him. She nodded a little, standing on her toes to press a loving kiss to his lips, hands moving to lightly rest against his chest.

@ katahdin
Cassia smiled and nodded. "Good. Simple. If she wants more she will reach out or just show up to test your true intentions." she said and grinned. "Seal it up and let's see if we can finish that book you where reading to me earlier." she said and leaned over the table kissing him. "See, not so hard." she winked at him. "You where overthinking it." she said and then turned from him looking around the room. She had thought that was going to take a lot longer but he seemed to be a man of few words even in writing.

---

Zane grinned and kissed her back slowly. He kissed her deeply exploring the kiss with her his hands moving slowly and sensually over her body. He pulled her to him as his tongue traced over her bottom lip asking for entrance. He wanted to give her every experience at her own pace.

@ Jinx...

Thibault put the letter into an envelope and sealed it, addressing it before passing it off to a servant to mail. He kissed her back gently before standing with a sigh, taking his glasses off and setting them down on the desk as he rubbed his eyes before walking over to his bed and flopping down on it. "Is it overthinking if you've been thinking about writing it for a hundred years?" He asked teasingly, grinning over at her.

---

Rosemarie kissed him back lovingly, a faint moan escaping her lips as they parted to let his tongue in, her fingers lightly gripping his shirt as they kissed. As it intensified, her fingers slowly began to unbotton the buttons on his shirt, moving slowly and carefully as to not interrupt their kiss.

@ katahdin
Cassia laughed. "Okay at that point I think you can consider it obsessing." she said and walked over to him straddling his lap looking dow at him. "I will kill you if it takes you that long to apologize to me." She half teased. She would be pissed if he ever waited on apologizing to her over something stupid. She smiled and rubbed his chest gently and leaned down kissing him softly. "So where is that book?" she asked him.

---

Zane smiled against her lips as her fingers brushed over his skin as she started unbuttoning his shirt. He ran his hands up her back and slowly started to unzip her dress his fingertips trailing down the newly exposed skin feeling her skin tremble with he sensation. He felt the heat rise at the desire to make her tremble more in pleasure.

@ Jinx...

Thibault's hands moved to rest on her hips as she straddled him, laughing a little as he shook his head. "I couldn't wait that long to apologize to you. The most time it would be would be maybe a month or two at most, after that I would be too hungry and weak to not apologize." He teased, kissing her back lovingly before gesturing to the nightstand where their book lay, although he grinned up at her. "It doesn't seem to me like you're very interested in reading, though."

---

Rosemarie shivered as he ran his fingers down the bare skin of her back, kissing him lovingly before pulling back enough to slip her arms out of the sleeves once he had unzipped her dress, resting her forehead lightly against his as she let the dress fall from around her to pool at her feet on the floor. She blushed brightly as she kissed him again, feeling nervous standing there in front of him in the lingerie that Lynore had picked out for her to wear for him, the maid having promised that Zane would love it.
