    At his touch, her heart quickened, which she was sure he could feel as they still stood nearly plastered against each other. It was then, that her barrier began cracking, letting the light of the outside world peak in. A fluttering of her eyes as they adjusted to the light and then she...

    "No, you haven't," she stammered. It seemed as if they'd be in this shell not too much longer. But long enough for her to let the following slip. "It's not. I mean you must know..." She paused, honeyed-eyes still trying to find his in the dark. A small purse of her lips. A clear of her...

    "I'm not worried about myself," she said quietly into the darkness. A wince that his elven eyes could probably pick up the darkness as he mentioned Gerra's guard. They were rather...brutish. "I'm more worried about ruining any plans the Emperor had here. And the people here. If there is...

    A small snort as he said My Lady. Did he know she’d been a slave before being freed by Gerra? Before his appointment. She’d been the lowest of the low. And now nearly on top of him with the barrier at her back and his hard, muscled chest at her front, with his warm breath tickling across her...

    As he shifted, his arm brushed across her shoulder. Her lips pressed tightly together. Strange how that motion seemed to elicit more of a reaction out of her when she was pressed completely against his chest. "Well," she breathed against him. "Not many know about it. I'm not even sure the...

    It was instinct. Her arms warped around his torso and she pressed herself closely against his frame. Head tucking against him. As the magic worked. Even a few moments after they were sealed in a much quieter darkness of the protective barrier between them and a storm that wanted to rip and...

    The sand storm sounded like thunder, a fierce beast bellowing in her ears. She couldn't even open her eyes as it assaulted her skin. And then she realized she very well might die. Right here and right now. Head tilted, instinct of hearing something rather than actually hearing anything. Her...

    Squinted eyes nodded to the Vizier of the Red Sun. And his men. Even though she still felt a pang of something in her gut. As grateful as she was, especially with the growing negative behavior the orcs soldiers had shown her. Was Gerra that fearful of losing her that he ordered his soldiers...

    The massive orc's dangerous eyes looked down to Ashuanar. He sneered and after a moment a bit too long, his large bruising grip unfurled around the woman's arm. His gaze though, showed the Vizier of War that this was NOT finished. He hadn't liked being corrected in front of his two men who...

    People were screaming and running inside the, possibly slightly, more secured tent of the chieftain. Kailyn was on her feet and moving against the tide. Or trying to. Desert robes whipped around her slender form. Golden-strawberry hair a stream behind her as she found spaces between those...

    The chief was in the middle of saying something but paused as another entered. Kailyn's honeyed-eyes lifted and flickered to the opening of the tent. It was twilight outside, the last rays of the setting sun nearly gone with only the darker pinks and oranges like fading brushstrokes across a...

    Rugs and an assortment of rough, woven pillows decorated the floor of the tent. Chief Kin’ouya took the head pillow. Kaitlyn tucked her legs beneath her at one to his side. Tea was poured and a shared cup was passed around. Her amber eyes swept those gathered, trying to commit each face to...

    Kailyn dismounted as they entered the small maze of tents and huts. Gerra’s massive irc guards did the same as a small boy ran up to them. He hesitated at the sight of the giant soldiers. Kaitlyn smoothly stepped in front of one and knelt down, flocking the cowl of her cloak down and slowly...

    The juggernaut guards remained stoic as they traveled with Kailyn. Gerra's guard for her. She used to wonder if they were sent with her as much to keep her safe as it was to keep her in the Empire. She truly doubted the latter. The Emperor had more important things to worry about than one...

    Time and his many exploits had created a chasm between them she struggled to cross. Warm-caramel eyes never left his smoldering twin suns. A small frown as he put her at literal arms-width away. "Perhaps you just needed someone to show it to you," gently, she took his hand off her shoulder...
