The Blood Of Three Kings

“Gather your selves.”

The whisper of Crystalis reached all of them. Silvan glanced up from the plate of food he had. Serenity turned away from the flowers to look down the hall. Kaire pulled the last of her clothing on at the urging of Crystalis. Lucian tied his silver, flowing robes closed. It was time for all of them to go meet with the Lady Crystalis.

“Greetings all.” Crystalis looked up from her throne. “I have called you all together because I believe I have found the answers you seek in my scrying pool.”

“You found the location of the staff?” Serenity stepped forward. “I mean..umm.”

Silvan, kaire and Lucian were all quiet right now. Crystalis smiled and looked at the young queen. Serenity was eager to try and find the staff. Crystalis could see the genuine want in the jade green eyes.

“I believe the staff lays in wait where religions gate begins and you are all the keys to it’s entry.”

Crystalis smiled. Her whispers were like a gentle song in each one of their heads. Serenity though, looked confused at the riddle that was given. They all did actually. She went to speak but Crystalis raised her finger in the air to shush her.

“That is all I can say. There are others among you.” She looked right at Lucian.”Who might be able to give you an answer to it.” Crystalis smiled to him in that knowing way. “Am I not correct?”

Lucian tensed completely. Kaire blinked as she felt this. His arm was around her after all. Serenity and Silvan both turned their attention to the very quiet Lucian now as well. His silver eyes gave a flicker of something. It was so quick that only Crystalis caught it. His gaze was trained upon the Whispering Shi woman.

“Well I think it is time for my love and my self to go get a little something to eat.” Lucian tore his eyes away from Crystalis’s intense stare. “Come Kaire.”

kaire oophd as she was pulled forward. Lucian made for a quick exit. This only made Silvan and Serenity more sure that he was the one Crystalis spoke of.

“Hey Lucian! Wait up!” Serenity ran after him suddenly. “You knew something the whole time didn’t you?!”

“I hardly think that is any way to ask someone something. Especially a queen.” Lucian looked at her. “What does it matter that I may know something or other? This is not my quest. I have the woman I want.”

“What do you mean! And don’t give me that queen non sense. You heard her! We are all Keys to this. If you know something.” Serenity panted. “You need to tell us.”

“She is right.” Silvan stepped up now. “I do not generally like secretes from my own people. If you have something that can help us by all means tell us.”

Lucian sighed. Damn that woman. Crystalis did this. All he wanted to do was stay in the back ground and keep kaire with him. What did she know exactly? Why speak in those riddles? Why couldn’t she have given them the information that was needed! This being good thing was apparently something he disliked as much as Kaire.

Silvan pulled Serenity a little closer now. Serenity refused to look away from Lucian right now. Kaire pulled back as best she could and hid behind Lucian. This was a terribly uncomfortable position to be in. She did not like being in the middle of them.

“I had a dream maybe.” Lucian looked at the couple “But I do not know what it meant. I saw my self, Kaire and you two standing outside a building. When we went to go inside a pair of red eyes appeared in the dream and it ended. I do not know if we were stopped or not. I woke up too soon to tell.”

“What did it look like?” Kitten prodded for more information. “Could you tell where it was at?”

“It was all white and very old looking. It was nothing like any of the building in Corinth or even in the middle lands. I don’t even think Varia has something like this.” Lucian straightened him self. “I can try and draw it I suppose.”

“That would help.” Lucian smiled. “And thank you. You know deep down that helping is the best thing. I can see that you are some what like the maiden Kaire on this.” Silvan nodded. “But please get that drawing done when ever you can.”

“As soon as I can.” Lucian bowed his head respectively and turned. “Come Kaire.”

He pulled her off with him now. Lucian was acting very proper all of the sudden. Serenity shook her head and watched the strange mans actions. Silvan sighed at it all. Why did all these complications have to arrive?

“Love I think it will be okay. I also think there is more to that man then he is saying or letting on. Something feels odd about him. I can’t explain it.” Serenity looked up at him. “And did you see the way he froze and looked at Queen Crystalis?”

“Yes I did and yes I agree. We may need to keep a closer eye on our new found friend.” Silvan wrapped his arm around hers. “Let us go for a walk though. I need to clear my head a little.”

“Alright love.” Serenity smiled. “I’m sorry this has to get so complicated.”

“It is not your fault angel.” Silvan walked with her down the hall now. “I know fait always has it’s own way of working.”

“You know sometimes I think more is working. Like mischief and mayhem. Look at all those creatures that attacked us.” Serenity stepped away from him and pushed the doors open to the outside. “And you saw how strange Crystalis acted. She kind of gives me the creeps in a way. She has that all knowing aura. Why does she whisper in out head too. I don’t understand that at all. It feels really weird to hear her but never see her lips moving.”

“Ah well I can answer that last one.” He chuckled and pulled her along with him outside. “The Shi have very shrill voices. They whisper in the mind because our ears could not take such a high pitched thing.”

“Oh! Like a Banshee! They are part of Irish lore. Their screams are said to be able to tear a man apart or even make his brain melt literally in their heads.” Serenity giggled. She scooped up a hand full of freshly fallen snow and tossed it at Silvan. “Looks like winter.”

“Hey!”

He chuckled and ran after her. The two ran into the main court yard of the Shi palace. Serenity loved the snow. This forest was especially beautiful in it’s new blanket of white. Silvan scooped her up into his arms and fell backwards into a small snow back and wrapped his arms around her lovingly.

“I love you Serenity Demetrious. We will solve this no matter what problems we may face.”

“Say that again.” Serenity hugged her self up against him. “The part where you said my name.”

“Serenity Demetrious?” Silvan smirked. “Or I love you Serenity Demetrious?”

“The second one.” She chuckled and kissed his lips lightly. “I love you too Silvan Demetrious. My handsome husband and father of our children.” She shivered a little. “We should move though. It is kind of cold.”

“Oh I can think of a few things to warm us up.”

He winked. His hands worked under the thin material of her loin cloth. Serenity gasped and sat up. Her legs were straddling him. Her hips started to squirm a little.

“Silvan!” She panted a little. “You’re..being really naughty..”

She moaned out. Her hips bucked against the hidden hand in her loin cloth. Silvan sat up and leaned him self against the solid part of a tree, shifting Serenity with him. His hand worked it’s self further under the loin cloth. Serenity gasped out again.

“Oh!”

“You’re not cold anymore are you.”

Serenity panted harder as her eyes closed. She moaned louder at the actions of his hand. His fingers were pressing them selves deeply into her womanly treasure and stroking. He added a third finger. Silvan delighted in seeing the look of pleasure on his wife’s face.

“N..no..” Serenity moaned louder. Her hips were bucking lightly against his hand now at a steady pace. “S..silvan..What about you?”

Serenity could feel his erection against her from where she sat. Silvan leaned forward and kissed her deeply. Serenity moaned louder now. Her hips were grinding against his hand. His fingers were buried deep inside her. He pulled them out slowly. Serenity gave him a cute whimper.

“Why did you stop?”

“I think I have someone much better suited for that job in mind.”

Silvan smirked and lifted her slightly. She giggled at the shuffling of his pants. He felt warm and ready for her too. Serenity pushed him back against the tree and smiled.

“I’ll take over from here love.”

“Oh. I love a woman who takes charge.”

Serenity laughed at his comment. Silvan moaned as he felt her push her warmth over his member and down. Both his hands went to her hips and grabbed on. Serenity took a deep breath and pushed all the way down. He wasn’t a small man. She felt impossibly full every time she had him inside her.

“You know.” Serenity opened her eyes to look at him while her body adjusted to his size again. “I always did like riding in the snow.”

“I think I like it too.” Silvan moaned and thrust his hips up. His member was squeezed very tightly in her warmth.”Oh yeah. I like it a lot. Ride me angel.”

“Silvan!” Serenity blushed. “You never talked like that before.”

“You like it though.”

“Yes I do.”

Serenity kissed him hard and passionately. Her hips started to rock against him as she did. Silvan moaned into the kiss. The snow didn’t even bother the couple. They were plenty warm with one another.

“ So..” Serenity was panting hard by now. “T..think we will actually get that picture from Lucian?”

Her hips kept working slowly and grinded down against him. Silvan moaned, closing his eyes. His hands were grasped onto her hips. She was his dream.

“ Ye..yes I do.”

Silvan shifted his hips to buck them up into her and made her bounce now. Serenity gasped out and grabbed onto his shirt material. Their pace had just picked up at least two levels. The intensity of their love making caused beads of sweat to form over Serenity’s fore head. The cold of the snow didn’t slow them down a bit.

“Oh!” Serenity’s back arched. Her warmth clenched around Silvan’s member and locked down. ”Silvan!”

“Serenity!”

Silvan’s excitement exploded. Serenity’s had already gushed two times over. The two sat together as one in the snow. Silvan ran his fingers through her hair and crooned over her. She was os beautiful. The snow that sparkled around her made her look like a snow angel.

“We should probably go and check on the resident mystery man.” Silvan didn’t want to move though. She felt delightful right here she was sitting. “Don’t you think?”

“ Probably.” She yawned and leaned against him. Serenity snuggled up against his chest for warmth.”I think I like it right here for now. Just as long as you wrap your cloak around us.”

“Ah yes.” He slid his cloak around. The movement of his hips made her gasp a little. “Sorry love.”

Silvan grinned and wrapped the black cloak around them. It was very warm. Serenity nuzzled her cheek against his chest, yawning again. She could fall asleep right here. Silvan didn’t mind. Well, his bottom might after a while. They were sitting in snow.

“Come on love.” Silvan reluctantly pulled her up with him. Her loin cloth fell back down over her as he did. She moaned and hugged up as close as she could while she was in arms. Silvan chuckled and adjusted his pants below. He couldn’t walk into the palace with his private parts hanging out.

“You’re such a tease. I was almost asleep.” Serenity gave him a fake pout. “But I can get over it I guess. If you promise to make it up to me later.”

“Definitely.” Silvan grinned and swept her back up into his arms. “We should go check on the others though as I said. You know so we at least look like were not just interested in making love all the time.”

“I wouldn’t complain about that one bit.” She kissed his cheek softly. “Though you might after you got sore and couldn’t walk.”

Silvan just laughed and carried her away. Crystalis chuckled from her seat as she looked at the scrying pool. She believed those two were a very fine king and queen indeed. They were doing Corinthia’s crowns justice already. Plus you know, watching two people making love never hurt anyone. It was just too bad she didn’t have a man.
