Hawe and His Princess: Chapter 30

Second Lothering dance

After they made it to town, and he made his delivery to the shelter, they took the wagon back over to the stables. Elayne asked him if he wouldn't mind if she went and did some personal shopping, he didn't have a problem with it as long as she took both men with her. After she left to do her errands, he went into a few shops. Once he found what he was looking for and made a reservation, he headed to Dane's where they were to meet up.

"Welcome back Hawke, how did you like Highever?" Danal asked when he came over to where Hawke was sitting.

"It was good, definitely a lot busier than what I'm used to, but I missed my home, the peace. Your daughter and son-in-law are officially working for me permanently. They seem to like it there. I thank you again for letting them help out while I was gone. Danal, I need your best room for Elayne and I tonight and a room for my men."

"You're lucky, I do still have it available considering all the people in town for tonight. Where's that beautiful wife of yours at anyway?"

Hawke grinned over at Danal as Elayne came walking in excitedly. "My beautiful wife is coming in as we speak," he said as he nodded in her direction.

She came over to where they were and gave Danal a hug before sitting down by Hawke, giving him a hug and kiss. "Why didn't you tell me they were having a dance tonight, Hawke?"

"Because my sweet angel, it was a surprise. We're going to be staying here tonight, and we have dinner reservations in a few hours."

"But I don't have anything to wear, why didn't you tell me," she said in a huff as she started to get irritated.

He grinned at her and helped her up, then grabbed their bags and escorted her to their room, "Let's go check into our room."

"Hawke, I need to go..."

Once in their room, he put a hand up to stop her from continuing and handed her a couple of packages from his bag, "You should have everything you need, I hope. If not, then we can go get whatever you're missing."

She opened the packages, one contained a light blue dress with gloves and shoes, and the other had accessories that she would need. She turned to him with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, baby, you spoil me too much." She walked over to him, sat down on his lap, put her arms around him, and kissed him deeply, passionately.

He looked down at her, seeing how happy she was, "Isn't it my job to make sure my wife is happy and has everything you could want and need, my beautiful angel. Do you have everything?"

"I do, thank you. You know me too well, my love."

Elayne went and started getting ready, while he changed into his dress outfit and let her know he would be downstairs. He left one of his men at the door just to put his mind at ease. Danal came back over to him, and Hawke ordered a drink while waiting for Elayne. He sat there watching people coming in as dinner got closer. He stood up stunned when he felt her in his head as she finally came down, leaving him momentarily speechless.

The dress was backless with a deep plunging cleavage which revealed her breasts perfectly, it hugged her body, with slits on both sides that revealed part of her legs from the thighs down which he loved, it gave him easy access to her.

He walked up to her and took her hand, bowing before offering his arm, "You are absolutely stunning, my beautiful wife."

She curtsied to him, her hand going to his arm, "Thank you, my devilishly handsome husband."

He walked proudly beside her. She really was stunning and so beautiful that she made him ache inside. He took her to the same restaurant they had been to before. After being seated in a private booth, she leaned against him as he put his arm around her. "I love this place. It's so beautiful in here."

"Not as beautiful as you, my sweet princess," he whispered in her ear. When their waitress came over, they ordered their drinks and meal. After they were done with their meal, she ordered her favorite pie, and he couldn't help but remember the last time they had enjoyed a chocolate cream pie together. He chuckled as her face flushed beautifully, also remembering.

When they were done, they headed to where the dance was. Once there, he pulled her close to him, gazing down at her, marveling at the way she looked and felt in his arms.

Elayne looked up at him, "Remember our first date here?"

"Of course I do, baby. I remember that night perfectly. The night I first kissed you, I remember your lips tasting like plum wine. I remember the way you felt in my arms, absolutely perfect. I also remember how frightened my little dove was. I remember everything, baby." He felt her in his head as she examined his memories of that night, went through each detail, each feeling. This time, it was she who pulled his head down, her lips meeting his. She still tasted of plum wine, he thought. He pulled her closer against him, once again marveling at the feel of her in his arms. She was his everything, his heart and soul, his miracle, his to love and cherish forever, and he was never going to let her go.

"I love you, always and forever," he told her when their lips separated.

"I love you too, Hawke, with all my heart and soul, always and forever."

Midway through the night, he looked down at her, "You feel like taking a walk, angel?"

She looked up at him and smiled beautifully, "I would love that baby."

Hawke took her hand in his, and they headed towards the water. He found a nice quiet spot, leaned against a tree, and pulled her down with him, wrapping his arms around her, his chin resting on her head. She leaned her head back against his chest, loving the feel of his strong, powerful arms around her. It was so peaceful, so relaxing, every once in a while, she could hear the music drifting over.

She turned around so she could look at him, "Thank you, Arik," she whispered up to him.

He looked down at her, she could see the love he had, he felt for her. She felt a peaceful warmth spread throughout her body with that look. She felt safe, happy, loved, "What are you thanking me for, angel?"

"For being you, for everything you do for me, for making me happy beyond belief, for loving me with all you heart and soul."

She put her hand to his face, her eyes feasting on him. She traced his mouth with her finger, remembering the magic his lips made her feel when he was teasing and feasting on her, his mouth and tongue doing wonderful things to her body. Her hand and eyes wandered lower to his chest, feeling his strong, powerful muscles. She undid the buttons of his shirt so she could get better access to him. Her gaze feasted hungrily over him. He was so perfectly sculpted. Her fingers traced around his chest in circles until she got to his nipple. She teased and pulled it with her fingers, then lowered her mouth to it. She heard his breath catch, felt his heart quicken against her hand. She looked back up at him, her eyes meeting his, her hand still wondering along his firm chest and belly. She moaned at the look in his eyes, the heat, the desire, the intensity, the hungry need in them, making her body tremble. She felt that delicious warmth flow down her body to her core.

Pulling her close to him, his mouth taking hers hungrily, his hand trailed up and down her bare back, his other pulling down the strap from her shoulder, exposing her bare breast. She felt his hot hand touch her, his fingers brushed against her nipple and she moaned into his mouth, her chest arching into his touch. He laid her back, her head resting on his arm, she wrapped her arms around him as his mouth left hers and went to her nipple, molten fire raced throughout her body at the touch of his mouth.

His hand slid up and down her thigh teasingly before slipping between her legs, his fingers rubbing her sensitive clit. Her hips moved with his movements, becoming more frantic, she started whimpering, her hips moving faster until her body came to the point of release, his mouth left her nipple, took hers with his as his fingers slid deep inside her.

Her hips thrust up frantically taking him in deep, tightening around him, her body exploding on his fingers, his mouth taking in her scream.

He removed his mouth from hers, trailing back down to her bare breast, taking her nipple back into his mouth, his hand still moving along her, bringing her close to the edge again before she felt his hot mouth between her legs, his tongue buried deep into her. She wrapped her legs around his neck as he devoured her, her body clamping tightly around his tongue, climaxing hard into his mouth. He took her again before he raised his body up hers, his mouth claiming hers as he sat up with her straddled over him. Her hands went to his pants to start unbuttoning them.

He pulled her hands away, "patience my little tigress, let's wait until we're in our room, I want to devour your body some more later."

Her hands went back down, "Hawke, I don't want to wait, I need to have you inside me now baby, please," she whimpered desperately. When he didn't stop her, she released him and raised his hips to remove his pants a little down his thighs. With his hands on her hips she lowered herself over him with a pleasurable satisfied sigh as he filled her completely. Her mouth went to his, he pulled down the other strap to her dress and exposed both her breasts. He grabbed her hips and slid her up and down the length of him, his mouth going to her nipple. Her hands went to his shoulders as she ground herself along him hard and fast. She felt him thicken in her, her body muscles gripping him tightly.

"Angel," he gasped hotly in her ear, his hands tightening around her hips slamming her onto him hard and deep before he filled her with his seed, and she released on him. She collapsed against him, breathing heavily, her head on his shoulder.

He tilted her head up to him, his eyes still hot and hungry, "you feeling better, my fierce sexy little tigress?"

She sighed contentedly, her arms going around his neck, "very much so my love."

He pulled a strap back up, covering up one of her breasts, his hand brushing the nipple of the other, and she moaned in pleasure at the sensation. "You feel like going back and dancing some more or retiring for the night and continuing this," he whispered huskily in her ear. Her body tightened around him when his tongue flicked her nipple before covering it with his mouth. His shaft twitched inside her, and she moaned in pleasure again. He grabbed her by the hips growling, sliding her up and down him.

"What a wonderful evening this has been, baby," she sighed contentedly in his arms as they danced.

He looked down at her, her eyes on his, his heart skipping when he saw her love for him. She truly was his miracle. "I love you, Elayne," he said before his mouth came down on hers.

When the song ended, they walked over to get some refreshments, with her hand on his arm. Suddenly, he heard a woman's voice calling out to him.

He stopped, watching Sister Leliana walking towards him, "Good evening to you, Sister Leliana. May I introduce to you my beautiful bride, Elayne? How are you doing this fine evening, Sister?"

Leliana's eyes roamed over Elayne as she curtsied to her, "My Lady, it's a pleasure to meet you. So you're the one that finally captured our young master Hawke's heart. You are a very lucky woman to have such a fine outstanding man here, my lady. I've heard about the announcement of your wedding in a few months, congratulations to both of you."

Elayne tilted her head in acknowledgment, "Thank you, Sister Leliana." She paused, looking up at him, her hand on his chest, her eyes shining with the love she had for him. "I am indeed a very lucky woman, blessed to have this wonderfully loving, handsome man as my husband." She looked back at Leliana, "if you'll excuse us, we were on our way to get something to drink. It was a pleasure meeting you, Sister Leliana."

Elayne guided him to the table, and they got their drinks and headed to a place to sit.

"So the announcement was officially made," Elayne said with excitement, leaning against him. "Hawke, what about your wedding outfit? You haven't even looked for one yet."

"Sweetheart, like your dress, my outfit is going to be made, you'll see it at the wedding. Now quit fretting, my love, and enjoy yourself."

Later that night, Hawke laid in bed with his arm around her, watching her sleep. Tomorrow, they would be heading back to the farm and, in a few more days after that, headed back to Highever. The end of the month was fast approaching, and he found himself dreading it. What could be so important that Caleb was insisting that Hawke had to leave with him for a while? He felt Elayne stir against him. He cleared his mind and pulled her closer to him, and she settled down. He laid there listening to her breathing, letting it lull him to sleep.

The next morning after breakfast, Hawke and Elayne bid Danal a good day, and they headed out. Before leaving town, Hawke took her to a couple of blacksmiths, looking for a better sword for her. After going through at least a dozen, he got frustrated, and they left heading home empty-handed.

Elayne looked at the couple of crates in the wagon, "Hawke, what's with those crates?" she asked him curiously.

He looked over at her with a grin, "Oh something for our house, something we talked about for the bedroom." He saw her going through her memory of what could possibly be in them. When it dawned on her, her face turned a rosy red as she blushed furiously. She avoided looking at him, fanning herself. He chuckled, brought her over on Midnight with him wrapping his arms around her. "Elayne, it was after all your idea, my beautiful little wildcat." Her face became even more red. He pulled her against him and lightly brushed his lips with hers, "I think it was a delicious idea, my love," he whispered to her before his mouth invaded hers.

They finally made it home, and he took the wagon down by his house and unloaded it. After the wagon was unhooked, the horses were taken care of, Hawke and Elayne headed back to their house. Hawke started unloading the glass from the crates. There was a full-length mirror in a beautiful oak frame that stood on a silver stand, plus six other smaller pieces. He looked over at her with a grin, "Would you like to help me, my love?"

The full-length mirror was set up on her side of the bed, considering he didn't need it. The individual pieces went up above the bed.

Elayne looked up at them, her face slightly flushed, "Hawke I'm not so sure, to constantly have those up there. I know it was my idea, but I didn't think you'd actually go through with it."

He was prepared for this and pulled out a silk cloth that he hooked up above the mirror. "When you don't want the mirror exposed, we'll just cover it up. When you want it exposed, we can uncover it with my power. Does this work for you, my love?"

She laid down to look. Right now, it was covered up. "That is actually perfect, Hawke."

He offered his hand to her and helped her sit up as they both sat on the bed. "Elayne, if you want me too, I can remove them if they make you too uncomfortable."

"No, their fine hun and the way their covered up is a great idea." She leaned against him, "how about I go and start dinner, I'm starving."

"Ok, and I'm going to go clean up, I'll be back." He gave her a kiss and went to gather a clean pair of pants, his soap and towel, and headed to the lake. After letting his body adjust to the water, he felt Elayne in his head as he started washing up.

"Why do you insist on bathing there, Hawke? You should buy a tub that you can actually fit in, that way we can bathe together."

"You could come and join me, baby," he chuckled.

"That's okay, love. I've seen and felt how chilly it is from you. I've heard what the cold water will do to a guy, but for you, my love, it doesn't seem to make a difference."

He chuckled again as he stood under the waterfall, letting the water rinse off the soap. Once he was done, he went over to the shelf behind the falls and sat there relaxing, thinking.

Elayne watched his thoughts. He was warring with himself about this trip in a little over a week. He really didn't want to leave, but he knew he had to. Her heart went out to him for his reason of not wanting to go. She herself was not looking forward to him being gone for so long. But as she told him, they would still be together, just not physically, which made her think of something. He had said he hadn't completely unraveled the ball that he had probed into when he made their connection stronger. Not for the first time, she wondered what would happen if he did unravel it all the way. For now, though, she put the thought in the back of her mind for another time.

With dinner done and the table set, she walked out to the lake, "Hawke, dinner is ready, my love." She heard a splash and saw him coming towards her, she couldn't help but notice how the cold water didn't seem to effect him as she grabbed his towel and waited for him to come out of the water, watching the way the water dripped down his body, he truly was a perfect in every way possible.

He walked up to her as she handed him the towel, grabbing her along with it, "Is that so, my love," he said with amusement before his mouth came down on hers.

She squirmed against him, laughing, "Hawke, stop it, you're getting me all wet, and dinners on the table."

When he let her go, she heard him laughing behind her as she rushed back to the house.

She smirked at him when he came into the house with only pants on and sat down at the table. When she set the last of the food on the table, he grabbed her by the waist and plopped her on his lap, "Now about that kiss, darling." He kissed her long and hard before letting her up, fanning herself as she sat down to eat.

After dinner and cleaning up, Elayne went to change for the evening, and she went outside to where he was sitting on his rock as he loved to call it. "Hawke," she said, walking towards him. He turned around, looking at her with a haunted look. When she got to him, she put her arms around him, bringing his head down to hers, "Come back inside, my love," she said softly before she kissed him. He responded back to her kiss and wrapped her up in his arms.

A cool breeze came up around them, and she shivered in his arms. When he pulled away from her, he groaned when he looked down, noticing what she was wearing. "Elayne, my love, why did you come out here wearing only this?" he asked as he picked her up and carried her in his arms back to the house.

When they got in, he laid her on the bed, looking down at her. The haunted look in his eyes gone, instead there they became hungry as they roamed over her, "I believe my hot little sexy temptress is trying to seduce me," he grinned wickedly at her.

She adjusted herself on the bed, one arm behind her head. She ran her hand slowly down her body watching his eyes roaming hungrily over her, watching as her hand went to the bottom of her gown slipping it over her raised knee, exposing the bare flesh of her leg to him.

She gave him a sultry seductive look, "Is it working, my love," she purred. She slowly pulled more of her gown up, exposing the bare flesh of her inner thigh, giving him a tease of the flesh between her legs. He started to put his hand on her bare leg when she slapped it away.

"Hawke," she whispered, "do you want this, my darling?" She pulled just enough of her gown up, exposing herself to his his hungry eyes. "Do you want to feast on this," she opened her legs more, her finger slid along her exposed clit.

He growled, his eyes becoming darker with lust watching her. "Take off your pants, Hawke," she purred as her fingers slid along her. She watched as he pulled down his pants and kicked them off, exposing his thick, long, hard shaft to her, his hot gaze watching her fingers.
