Oh my goodness, did I really sleep with a fairy? I close my eyes and open them again fearing I may still be dreaming, but I still see his handsome sleeping face. This is crazy! If my family knew what I did!
I hear a soft groan, Arcanes eyes fluttering open. He tilts his head lazily, a sleepy smile on his lips. My heart thuds in my chest, why is this man so gorgeous…?
“Good morning Beatrice…” He cups my cheek, caressing it with his thumb, looking into my eyes lovingly. My breath stops before I need to take another breath, for some reason I just want to snuggle into this man's warmth.
“Good morning Prince Arcane.” I say without thinking “Back to prince?” He gives me a charming smile with teasing eyes. He slowly brings his lips to mine in a gentle sweet kiss, my heart fluttering like crazy the whole time.
He pulls back slowly, looking into my eyes “You’ll have a big day today. I’m sure the other males will want a taste of you, Beatrice.” I don’t think I’ll ever get used to him saying my name, why do I feel so lucky to have gotten the fairy prince?
I blush at his comment “You will still be my first.” I don’t know why I need to tell and remind him. I fear that I may already have a connection to the fairy prince. I mean he did take my first….actually!
He smiles at me sweetly from my words “Why am I not sore?” I ask, a little bewildered. I remember the other women saying the first would hurt and you’d be sore after. It did hurt but not for long….Arcane made sure of that.
He chuckles softly, causing me to blush, did I say something funny or embarrassing?! “It’s my magic Beatrice, I made sure to help with the healing.” My heart warms at his words, this man is truly caring. “Thank you…” I rest my forehead on his chest, he kisses my head, running his fingers through my surely tangled hair.
“No need to thank me, my lady.” At that moment, the door opens and Arabella walks in. My body turns completely red, what is she doing?!
She smiles seeing the both of us, Arcane doesn’t seem bothered in the slightest though. “Is it that time?” He asks Arabella, looking over to her. She nods with a rosy smile “I apologize Prince, but she has a busy day and she must eat.” He smiles at her and turns to me, kissing my forehead.
He picks up a lock of my hair, looking into my eyes as he says “I’m always available to you, even at night.” He teases, kissing the lock of hair, my face flushing even more.
He gets up bare to the world, my mouth drops open, but Arabella acts like it’s a common occurrence. She walks over to my side, paying Arcane no mind. “My lady, I have picked out a dress for you. Once we’re done, I’ll take you to the dinning hall to eat with the others.” I nod, looking over at Arcane who is fully dressed, though his shirt is still open showing off his abs and tone muscles. He turns to me and smiles at my staring, I hide half my face behind the blankets. He nods to be before leaving the room like that.
“He wants to show off that he was your first.” I turn to Arabella who is fixing the dress she brought for me. “Show off?” I question, she smiles nodding “Yes, since you can’t put your mark on him yet he can only show off his disheveled state.” Disheveled state?! That’s so embarrassing!
Arabella giggles at me, gently taking the blankets off me. “Oh my.” She says, looking down at my chest, I look down as well. Oh my goodness! “He sure did enjoy you, my lady!” I squeak, my embarrassment through the roof today. That prince left hickeys on me!
After I got through my embarrassment and dressing, I head to the dinning hall. I sit with Willow and Sona, I really think me and these girls will be good friends here.
“So. Who else got loved up last night!” Willow asks, causing Sona to choke on her water. She looks at Willow like she grew a third eye. “Why would you just ask something like that?!” Sonas face flushes, I smile to myself, seeing a new side to her.
“Well I heard from mine that everyone was having a good time!” I truly did not expect this from Willow, she’s being very open about it and I think it’s making Sona lose her composure. But I enlighten Willow nonetheless “Yes I did enjoy myself last night with the fairy prince.” I declare, taking a bite of this interesting fluffy white stuff that reminds me of eggs.
Willow and Sonas eyes widen “The fairy Prince?!” Willow shouts, causing others to look this way. “Shush Willow, your being too loud!” Sona scolds, glaring at her to keep quiet. She apologizes and asks for me to continue.
“There’s not much to say, I fell asleep right after…” I blush, they both giggle and smile. “You passed out?” Willow asks again, I nod the embarrassment finding its way to me again. “He was really loving and gentle.” I say, looking at the both of them. “Gentle?!” Sona looks bewildered, I nod tilting my head in question.
She tightens her fist on her fork, I fear it may break. I go to ask her if hers was, but she stuffs her food in her face quickly before getting up without saying a word and walks off in a hurry. She looked really mad...I pray for the poor soul that gets in her way.
Willow and I look at each other shocked “Don’t worry, this happens sometimes and always for a good reason. I will pray for the soul that has wronged her in some way.” I just nod, not sure if I want to know what that means.
Willow and I have a nice breakfast together, we talk about things we like and have in common. I now know we both like nature and books. She adjusted well already and I’m really happy to hear that, she looked so scared and freaked when we first came here.
Arabella takes me to the Palace garden, they’re a lot of different species here. Seeing all of them gives me a rush of excitement!
I walk over to some bushes of really unique and strange flowers. I turn to one, finding a fairy on it, looking like it’s using its magic. “Hello.” I say softly, the fairy’s wings flutter, looking up at me quickly. Her face lights up “Lady Beatrice!” She stops what she’s doing to give me her full attention.
“Welcome to the garden!” She says with a cute contagious smile. I nod smiling back at her, these fairies are something else, I’m happy I can represent them. “Are these your batch of flowers?” I ask curious, she nods looking down at her work.
“We fairies help with the wildlife along with the nymphs. We all each have a section to take care of!” She flutters her wings cheerfully, flying in cute circles. “I’ll leave you to it then, you're doing a wondrous good job!” I say, her little cheeks flushing with pride. She nods bowing before getting right back to work looking determined.
I’m starting to believe that these fairies are all really determined. My thoughts flash to last night, my face heating up. I sigh softly to clear my head when I hear someone chuckle.
I look to my left to find a man, well he looks to be half man and half snake. His lower body is all snake, I have the strangest urge to caress his scales. He chuckles again, my face flushes realizing I’m staring.
“I’m so sorry! I just haven’t seen anyone like you before yet!” He smirks, showing off to sharp fangs, it sends heated shivers down my spine. “ My name is Erebus, lady Beatrice.” Oh my goodness, he has an accented voice that could make any girl melt on the spot….
I look at him shocked from his voice, my brain slowly processing what he's actually saying. I nod “It’s nice to meet you!” He chuckles at me again, my face really can’t get any more red today. It might as well be permanent!
The male in front of me has short spiky black hair on top and running down his neck. His eyes are a wild yellow, rings of iron and gold adorn his ears. Permanent markings are inked up his arms and shoulders, making him stand out even more. His snake tail is one of the most gorgeous I’ve ever seen, his base is black with patterns of gold and white scattered across his scales.
I’ve never seen anything like it, and I can’t stop looking!
His tail moves to my ankle, gently caressing it with it’s tip. The heated shivers ride up my leg, causing both my legs to feel like jello. He leans his lean tone body forward, whispering into my ear, his snake tongue tasting my ear.
My face flushes never having experienced anything like this. “I’m known as the Emir Naga.” He says into my ear, he leans back only slightly to see my reaction.
He smirks, showing off his fangs, looking pleased at my reaction. He looks down on me, way taller than the fairy prince with his tail. “I hope to see you again, Lady Beatrice. If ever given the chance, just call for the Emir Naga. I would be happy to see your beautiful face again.” He lets go of my ankle, and I surprisingly miss the warmth it brought.
Erebus moves back and slithers away before I could say a word. “Looks like the Emir Naga took notice of you, my lady. He has a hard taste in women, not many can catch his eye.” Really? Then why would he like me?
I really wanted to see some of the animals native here and some of the people, so Arabella took me to a field. They call it Sunna Meadow, it’s a place where a lot of people from Kroba like to hangout. They have all kinds of things here, like tent shops, places to go for all species to enjoy.
Sunna Meadow is a big field! A lot like my old farmhouse fields back home, but way bigger. Many of the four legged races seem to come here more often though. I remember reading about a lot of them, and learning their cultures and customs. All of it is so fascinating!
Arabella walks me through the open stalls and some of the tents. My eyes can’t stop looking at everything! Everything and everyone here is so different and new to me! I can’t wait to try out and maybe meet some people.
We move to a stall that has hot steaming looking potatoes on what looks like a cooker? It’s the only word I can describe it as. The food doesn’t smell like potatoes, it smells like roasted cow meat, and it’s making my mouth water.
Arabella walks over to the nice vendor and buys one for me, I guess she saw me eyeing it. How embarrassing…
“Here my lady, I think you’ll like this very much.” She hands the smelling meat potato to me. I sniff it some more, my mouth watering even more than before. Without thinking I take a big bite, I inhale deeply from the taste! Spices and juices filling my mouth with an overwhelming satisfied taste.
I continue to eat it after my first bite, losing my manners and eating it like a starved woman. Before I know it, it's all gone and I look at Arabella shocked.
She smiles and giggles light heartedly, my cheeks flush from embarrassment. I haven’t acted like that since I was but a child!
She brings me a cloth to wipe my hands with, and I take it gratefully.
After my embarrassment we move on to look at some of the cute animals that some of the vendors are selling and giving away.
Walking into the open fields something bites the hem of my dress, I look down finding a small fluffy, four eared, multiply tailed creature. It looks like a really small version of those big wolves that brought us here.
It’s really really tiny though, so maybe not? It’s cute fluffy ears raise up, big eyes looking up at me. It’s tail wags along with it’s little butt.
“Where did that sapus come from?” Arabella asks, trying to get the little thing off my dress, but it won't let go.
“Sapus?” I question, not getting an answer, someone yelling after us.
“I’m so sorry my lady! That one saw you and instantly ran after ya!” A young looking male runs up to us. “I apologize I'll take him off.” The man bends down getting ready to reach for the sapus before the little thing lets out the most vicious growl I’ve ever heard.
The man stops looking shocked out of his mind. Arabella even looks taken back. The sapus rubs up against my leg affectionately, even licking my ankle. I giggle, the licking tickling me, I bend down and stroke it’s dark blue fur.
Arabella and the man look at each other and smile. I look at both of them while the sapus jumps into my arms, wagging its little tail. They both look at me, the man speaking up “My lady, I think the young sapus has chosen you as its master.”
Arabella nods in agreement, “Master?” I ask, not understanding what this means. “Yes, sapus are very loyal creatures and only serve one master. They create deep bonds with that master. Some say they can even read their master's mind.” Arabella says, coming over to stand by me.
“That’s right my lady, their great companions! They live to serve, they’re an incredible animal. They even grow for their masters needs. So that little one can stay small if you’d choose it so.” The man says with a smile, nodding to the little sapus that’s nibbling on my fingers.
“How fascinating…” I say speechless, I’ve never heard of such a thing. I guess I should keep it? The sapus licks my hand and makes a cute rumbling sound. I look at it fawnedly “How much?” I ask, looking up at the smiling man.
He shakes his head “Oh no my lady, his all yours! You can take him freely, if the queen found out I asked for payment after finding out he chose you my head would be gone.” He laughs light heartedly, bowing his head.
“Have a nice day!” He says taking off his hat and running back to the other batch of baby sapus.
I look at Arabella who is smiling at me warmly. “Is it really ok to have him Arabella?” I ask her, she nods happily. “Yes, I think the queen will be happy to know you’ll raise a baby sapus!” My heart feels less heavy after hearing that.
The little sapus nuzzlings into my chest, resting in the crook of my arms. “I think I’ll call him Kefi.” I caress his little head, Arabella nodding in agreement. “What a perfect name for him, joy, excitement and high spirit in which good times and passion are expressed. The meaning behind it fits him perfectly.” She approves happily, causing my heart to fill with warmth.
“My little Kefi.” I nuzzle him to my cheek, his little tail wagging. “Will you promise to always be by my side?” I ask the little one smiling as he chirps up at me, licking my cheek lovingly.
