reign.
Yavil came forward and inclined her head, the beads of the headdress clashing with her movements. “Joining with another soul is a blessing that all Tebr experience. Breaking the first bond to form the second is the most difficult moment in a life. The only way that the Tebr continue on is to break one bond to form another, but I have a theory that no bond based in love can ever be broken. It can be thinned, but it will always be in the heart.”
A few older Tebr nodded and some younger ones frowned.
“We are blessed. We are designed to go through our life with someone at our side, in our minds and hearts. I speak from experience when I say that a single Tebr’s mind is not a pleasant place. It craves love, affection and understanding and will reach out to others in an effort to find it.”
She turned to address the couples. “Ladies and gentlemen, kiss the cheek of your twin and pull your mind back along the link. Do not break it yet.”
Yavil watched as both couples stood and did as she directed.
“Walk to your life mate and put your hand in theirs. Now, face them and put your other hand in theirs. Feel the warmth of your mate, the heartbeat that will join yours. Press your forehead against the one you want and breathe them in.”
She watched as both couples did as she said. “Kiss your mate, and with the kiss, draw their mind to yours and let them do the same to you. Allow them to make a place for themselves within you. Feel the joy at this link as it grows and strengthens. Feel the link with your sibling thin into a silver strand that will always connect you until death. This link can be severed by either party, but for now, let the warmth of your mate wash over you and the link to your sibling cool and fade.”
As she ceased speaking, the two couples began to make out in a display of passion that few ceremonies ever achieved.
“When you feel you have acquired your link, you can cease the kiss. If you are inclined to continue, you may want to take it somewhere private.” She grinned and inclined her head.
“Before those assembled, I have discharged my duty as primary. Thank you all for coming and sharing in our most honoured day.”
She walked down the aisle, and Hosh got to his feet, kissing her in front of all assembled.
When he lifted his head, he chuckled. “I think your parents like me.”
“The head of the Tebr council doesn’t. He disapproves of kissing in public. He thinks it will lead to the moral decline and dignity of the population.” She leaned up and kissed him again.
“I thought he disapproved.”
“Oh, he does.” She grinned and nibbled at his lower lip. “I don’t care. Guess what I just figured out.”
He wrapped his arms around her waist with the entire assembled crowd looking on.
“What?”
“I don’t live here anymore.” She laughed as he lifted her in the air and spun her around and around. As revelations went, it was beautifully simple, and there was nothing like an open mind and a place to let it run free to make someone feel at home. Add in a gorgeous hunk of a green Wyoran who shared her every hope and dream, she was set for life.
Author’s Note
Ask anyone, I can talk about anything for hours. Yes, it is horribly true…I gave her this talent, because it is something that folks around me deal with every day. I will lecture folks on the metallurgy of medieval weaponry or the best way to get a soft cinnamon bun. I just like to talk.
Having her linked to a Wyoran just made sense. If your mind loves logic, part of it must crave companionship to keep the balance.
I hope you enjoyed it. Light of Battle is next, and when you are raised with fighting as your only purpose, you tend to stop planning for the future.
