looming departure had erected. “A
night?” He left the question open to not trap her.
    She leaned up and brushed a gentle kiss
across his lips. Hers were so soft, a contrast to the strong lines
of her face and body that years of training had given her. “One
night where I can make love with you. One night with no obligations
or promises or unavoidable journeys to be made. Just two best
friends. Just us.”
    “Just us.” The perfect life – he
squashed that thought, throttled it. No, it was one night. It was
just them. And it would be the memory he’d keep next to his heart
through the long years ahead.
    Decision made, the weight on his chest
lightened enough that he could make himself believe it had
disappeared. Seth stood and reached down to grab Kira around her
waist and without waiting for her to speak, threw her onto the
bed.
    “Seth!” she squealed, laughter and shock in
her tone at his unexpected movement.
    “What?” He jumped on the bed and landed on
his knees next to her. “My understanding is this is where you do
that sort of thing.”
    “Mine as well,” she replied, her smile wide.
“Your first time?”
    “Yep,” he replied, though of course she knew
that. She knew everything, just as he did for her. He had only ever
wanted her anyway. No other woman at court ever came close to
tempting him. And even though he knew the answer, he asked anyway.
“Your first time?”
    “You know it,” she answered cheerfully back,
but as their gazes met, for one moment her face went slack, losing
the breezy humor to show a gravitas, an awareness of this moment
and all it contained… and all that was ending with it. He froze in
the act of reaching for her, waiting to see where it led.
    But it lasted for only a moment. She shook it
off and let their familiar closeness overpower any darker emotions,
her eyes returning to the soft, laughing look they had shared
before. She leaned back on her elbows and stared up at him, her
mouth challenging. “So how exactly are you going to dazzle me with
this sex thing?”
    Kira always said she followed where he led,
but in this time and place, he followed her. There would be nothing
dark allowed to touch this night.
    No, not this night. Not a night he had been
fantasizing about since he was old enough to have fantasies, and
not when Kira was spread out before him in sensual offering. Her
hair was fire bright and her skin had a silky sheen that invited
him to explore every inch with his tongue.
    That didn’t mean they couldn’t play and
tease. He put a finger to his chin and affected an air of deep
thought. “Well, there is good news and bad news on that front.”
    “I see,” she nodded, putting her own finger
on her chin to mimic him. “Please start with the bad news.”
    “I’m a young man about to have my first
sexual experience. I believe the words premature ejaculation was created for just this scenario.”
    Kira pressed her lips hard together, but she
couldn’t fully contain the snort of laughter. She breathed hard
through her nose, and when she had some control again, said, “I
hope the good news can cancel that out.”
    He lowered himself so that he was holding
himself slightly above her, their mouths inches apart. “I believe
it can. For you see, I am a young man, and that means my second
time will last quite a bit longer, as well as the fact I am able to have a second time. And a third. Possibly even a
fourth.”
    “Indeed. I completely agree with you on how
they balance in the end.” Her smile lost the humorous edge and
deepened into something more intimate, more loving. She wrapped her
arms around his neck again and pushed her mouth up to his.
    Their lips were firmer this time, less
tentative. He explored the curve of the top lip and the long, thin
line of the bottom, little nips and slight suction that brought
forth throaty sounds.
    Kira returned his actions with her own. His
mouth was her territory, and she claimed it however she wished. His
lip found
