WIW Chapter 1

Chapter 1:

Touch of the heart

 

        I stand looking down to the thousands of people, all looking at me in fear, hoping I can help them. As one of their 2 leaders it’s my duty to help them. I scan my eyes, looking for some ray of help. I’m alone, our other leader coming to meet me here, but he’s still days away. I feel a soft wind blow up on this balcony. Her dress sways softly in the wind. She looks at me and smiles as the white within the dress brightens her eyes. She softly mouths, “You’re not alone my love”. I feel myself blushing and her, and I quickly gain control. I turn back and slow take my sword out of its scabbard. I hold it above my head, in to the light allowing the rays to amplify its majestically angelic aura to shine more gallantly then before. The people below cheer in a mad frenzy as I stand stoned in place, feeling the weight of my duties landing upon me. She fixes her dress, and then takes my arm, this symbol of affection calms the crowd, and they all softly whisper their happiness in my gain of her… The woman in white.

 

        We walk together in to the castle hand in hand. The doors close and the curtains shut. The world closes away and it’s only me and her. I start to turn ready to tell her I love you only to have her place her lips to mine, taking my breath as her own. She pulls away with a smile and whispers,

 

“Ricardo, I love you, please” She pulls me close to her, and kisses my ear before she continues, “take me.”

 

            I feel her body pressed to mine, I brush my lips along her neck. She moans softly and kisses back to me. My heart starts to beat faster than before. I slowly walk us together to our bed where I fall down with her on top of me. She pauses and places her ear to my chest, my heart, tapping with each beat. Time passes, with her gently asleep in my arms. Then a knock echoes softly from my door. I respond with an, it’s open, to have a messenger walk in. He walks to me until her notices her asleep and starts to leave.

 

“Now son, don’t leave, she’s asleep, quickly what is it?”

 

“Mi Lord, a letter, from the king.”

 

“Thank you, you may go.”

 

The boy walks out, locking the door behind him. I open the letter and read slowly, making sure I triple read it all.

 

Lord R icardo,

 

     I’m making masterful time. It will be soon that I arrive at the castle and we can start our work. I’m sure you and you love are slowly getting swamped with problems you need to take care of, so I am hurrying. Be sure to get your rest, and don’t lose sight of your love for her, and her love for you. Be true fellow knight.

 

King Sarwar

 

         I close the letter, smiling to myself, as I put it in my desk cabinet. This slight movement is enough to awaken her. She rubs the sleep from her eyes and crawls up to kiss me. Our lips meet, and I feel her muscles in her body relax. I slide my and down the center of her back, gently touching her body, enough to give her chills. She moans as I feel her tongue pass my lips. I take it with mine, moaning softly to encourage her. She unbuttons my shirt and slides it off. Her hands then slide over to the back of my neck where she brushes along one for my sensitive spots. Her lips leave mine, and start to kiss along my neck. She sits up and slides her dress off. I smile softly mouthing, “I love you”. She says what I’ve been waiting to hear,

 

“Romance me…”

 

         After she utters those words I press my lips to her hand, kissing each finger one at a time. Slowly I move up along her arm, to her shoulder, then neck. I stop and start to hear down. I kiss the top of her breast, than slide my teeth too her bra where I pull slightly, and it unhooks, falling limp in my grip. Tossing it away, I return to her. The bliss before me, my lips brush her nipple, making her moan. I kiss her breasts, gently and heavenly. Her moans start to get louder and heart rate soars. I slide down and remove the last bit of fabric, a kiss and I return to her cheek. She remove my last bits of clothing, and we lay together naked, in blissful essence. She presses to me and kisses me. She smiles and it begins.

 

The rest of the night becomes a blur….

 

         I wake up the next day. Her to my right, curled up on to me. Naked, tired. I look to see the sun barely breaking the horizon. Our bed sheets soaked in god knows what. My body feels sore, and I listen as soft whispers are heard from out of our bedroom.

 

“Did you hear those noises last night?”

 

“What ones? I slept like a rock.”

 

“You slept through it; you could hear them scream each other’s name all night. The only stopped but 2hours ago.”

 

“Who, what screams? I’m confused.”

 

“Our lord! And his lady.”

 

“I don’t recall any of it.”

 

“Damn why bother…”

 

          I laugh softly to myself as I slide out of bed. She rests, too tired to ask what I was doing. I head to the bath and wash up quickly and dressed. I return to write her a note. Then I’m off. In a matter of time I reach the court yard where I see some children playing with a ball. They kick it back and forth. Laughing and smiling to each other. I stand there watching, smiling when they notice me. One of the boys walks up to me and places his small hand on my pants. I feel him press a bit as he looks up, moments later he’s running full speed to the others screaming, HE’S REAL! I can’t resist falling back in laughter, only to have my fall cut off. I look up to see a rather tall man standing behind me, catching me. I quickly stand an turn, hand on the hilt of my sword, ready to fight until I notice who it is.

 

“Brother… Brother Sarwar?”

 

“So you do know who I am Ricardo, I’m here. Like I said, I’ve hurried.”

 

“Damn that was fast, I only received you letter yesterday night.”

 

“Fine, fine, I’ve a question for you ‘Mister Lord’.”

 

“Dear god, what could it be? You only call me ‘Mister Lord’ when you’re annoyed with me or mad.”

 

“What’s this I hear about a female voice screaming your name all night, and a male voice returning thescream with her name?”

 

I slowly turn red. “Uh… you heard nothing? Yea about that…”

“That’s not how a lord should act…”

 

“I know but…”

 

“Stop it, I’m just toying with you, I know what you did, your stance shows it. You’ve no stress mate, very well done.”

 

“Bastard, scaring me to think I’ve made a mistake, let’s go, we’ve got work to do and I’ve yet to do my morning training.”

 

“Well shouldn’t I be visiting her? She must have missed me?”

 

“Yea… She’s tired… You’ll see her later.”

 

“Damn what did you two do?”

 

My face starts to deepen in red. “Sh..Shut up.”

 

“YOU’RE BLUSHING!!!!”

 

“Let’s do…” I start to walk off to the castle head shaking back in forth with a king walking behind me who can’t stop laughing while he mocks me.
