After scrambling to my feet, I search the room not seeing anyone. "WHO'S THERE? SHOW YOURSELF?!" I call out, to the box and shelve filled room.
The voice rings out again, "Please. I have no intention to cause you any harm. I am searching for someone."
An oddly, Victorian-esque dressed woman comes out from behind some of the shelves. My jaw drops at the stunning, beautiful woman that looks at me, cautiously, but anxiously too.
"Wow! You are gorgeous." I can't help but compliment her wide eyed as I look her over.
Her dark, tight, curled hair was pinned up high on her head, with stray curls loose from the pins in a naturally attractive way. Her skin was the color of mahogany, a set of full lips, a pert nose with eyes that stood out and were framed with long natural lashes.
She shuffles, awkwardly, and merely gives me a thin lipped smile in response.
"I'm sorry, who are you? Who are you looking for?" I shake my head getting back on track.
"I'm looking for Mr. Fairchild. My husband, but you may call me Mrs. Langridge. "She says hope filling her eyes as she asks for her husband.
'Mr. Fairchild?' I see the hope dim in her eyes, noticing my confused look.
"Don't worry Mrs. Langridge. I do not know that many peoples names that are here so I'm sure he's around." I inform her.
"May I ask, why did you kick the box that labeled Lead weights?" She points to the label of the box and I swear I could kick myself again for not noticing that before.
"I'm an idiot, who can't control my emotions of helplessness, so I lash out violently without thinking sometimes." I force out with as much self deprecating humor as I can muster, right before I break down thinking of John.
"Sorry, I just need a moment." I open the door and step out to calm down and I've only gone two steps when a set of arms go around me that make me stiffen up.
"Hey, don't worry we will find him. I know you feel helpless but we are almost done." It's Bavarthos who is holding me tightly whispering softly into my hair, near my ear.
"B?" I start when he stops, freezing to his spot.
"Bav! Why are you hugging another woman?!" The woman Mrs. Langridge calls out from behind me.
Bav... BAV?! I push myself away from him and look shocked to him and then to Rakara. This has to be Rakara!
"Rakara?!" I ask her, "Rakara Langridge?!"
She gives me a tight lipped nod and I smack Bavarthos on the back. "Earth to B... Snap out of it and go say hello to your wife. I'll give you some privacy."
I exit the room and leave those two alone.
...Bavarthos POV...
Kara?
IS she really here?
My Kara?
"Earth to B.. Snap out of it and go say hello to your wife. I'll give you some privacy." Sin smacks me on the back and ushers me into the room, closing the door behind me.
She's become even more beautiful, confident, and stronger than when I last saw her. She is so stunning, I can't seem to breathe as my knees go weak coming to the realization that she is here.
"Kara?" I whisper breathlessly as I take shaky steps towards her. My arms open up as I near her and pull her into my arms, feeling her solidly against me, taking a deep inhale of her scent that I had almost forgotten and clutch her close to me, desperately praying I am not dreaming.
"Kara... My Kara... My love.." I can't help as tears fall from my eyes.
"Bav." She squeezes me back just as tightly, sobs escaping her. After some time she pushes back from my arms and takes my face in her hands.
"Hello, Bav." She takes a deep breath and puts her hands on my shoulders, "Now, care to tell me who that woman was and why you had your arms around her, whispering in to her hair like that?" A spark lights in her eyes and I can't help but laugh.
"Ha! Sin?!" I exclaim loudly in disbelief.
Suddenly the door opens and Sin sticks her head back in, "Did you call me?" She inquires.
"Are you listening to our conversation?" Kara asks, shocked disdain beginning to form.
"No! I just heard my name being shouted! Sorry, I don't know how to get back to the workroom from here. I can't snap back." She says seeing that there is tension building.
I quickly wave her over to me. "Kara, my love. I'd like you to meet my friend, Sin. Her husband was captured earlier by the Erlking. We are trying to finish our plans to go save him and end this war."
Sin sticks her hand out to shake her hand, "Rakara! I've heard very good things about you from B here. Speaking of which B, your last name is Fairchild?" Sin asks after shaking Rakara's hand.
"Yes, it is. Can you please explain to my wife what I was telling you in your ear while trying to console you please?" I ask her to clarify.
She looks at me, a quirked eyebrow and a lopsided grin on her face. "Is that the problem here right now?" A quick nod of my head is not really needed as she laughs it off. "Darling, I can tell you right now that your husband, B, Bavarthos, is the definition of faithful in regards to you. I had just ran off from the workroom upset because, he, blocked my abilities in here so I can't go rescue my husband until we're ready to go. That's when I came in here. He was just trying to comfort me, ensuring me we will get him back. I love my husband John, B is just a friend." She reassures Rakara who still looks annoyed but her anger is cooling.
She merely nods to Sin and looks towards me. Catching the hint, I turn to Sin. "I'll snap you back to the workroom." Sin nods in response and she's gone with the snap of my fingers.
"Does that make you feel better, dear?" I ask her, feeling slighted by the fact she would think I would possibly be involved with anyone else.
"Yes, you must be close friends to hug her in such an intimate manner." She crosses her arms and I forget how conservative her society is compared to this ones.
"Apologies my love, but I did inform you that this is another world who's interactions and what is considered socially acceptable is different from Jakesha. Here male or female may hug one another, platonically and it is acceptable, in certain cases it is expected."
I gather myself and respond honestly, "Now, you are hurting me with these obvious questions of skepticism, when I have thought of no one in that manner, but you for the past eight, long years."
She looks down guilt in her face for a moment before looking back u pin defense, "My apologies, Bav. You have to admit that if you witnessed the same situation reversed, that you would not ask the same questions of me though."
Sighing she steps forward and wraps her arms around me, "I have missed you too." She leans forward and places her lips on mine, a soft sweet kiss, that ignites my suppressed hunger for her.
I wrap her in my arms and clutching the back of her head as I deepen the kiss longing to show her how much I have missed her. I can feel her legs shake and give out as I hold her up to me, kissing her still as her arms work around my neck. I pick her legs up, setting them around my waist, getting the skirts layers out of the way to feel her more closely to me.
I find the wall still kissing her, as she rubs herself up against me, sharing the hot moisture that is forming in between her legs that rubs against me.
"Oh Kara..." I whisper to her huskily when I pull back from our kiss to look upon my beautiful wife.
She pants her seductive hooded gaze devouring me and enticing me simultaneously. "Bav.. Please?" She begs in her high pitched voice that sends chills down my spine.
I snap my fingers and end up in my bedroom here in the caves, setting her back on the blanket, as she looks around wide eyed.
She laughs nervously, "I forgot what that felt like." The laughter fades quickly as she looks me up and down as I remove my shirt and loosen my belt and kick off my shoes.
She hungrily eyes my chest and my heart blooms with pride, she's still attracted to me.
I climb slowly over her body lifting her skirts as I do, letting my tongue do a trail up to her mid thighs to lay a love bite, on the tender and sensitive flesh.
"OH! BAV! Please just make love to me! I can't handle the teasing, I need you now." Her words are full of desire, anxiety and demand. I pull up from her thighs and finish undressing as she stands to quickly undress and bare her nakedness before me. I pull her towards me and she straddles my lap, pushing me back on the bed kissing my lips and neck. She rubs her slick lips against my hard member that feels like it's ready to burst already. I hold it steady for her letting her slide her self on to me.
"OH SWEET ELEMENTS! " She moans out as I stretch her tightness, filling her up with me. She tosses her head back as I pull her hips down more, working her slowly up and down my shaft as she moans out in ecstasy.
I've just pulled her down to the base when I feel her walls begin contracting all around my dick, her crying out sweetly. Whimpering, she leans forward and kisses me, beginning to rock her hips riding out her orgasm.
"Oh damn, Kara, you feel better than ever before my love." I gasp out, picking her hips up and helping her set a better pace for us both. I'm about to cum already. It's been eight years for me, I am surprised I haven't cum already with how amazing this feels.
I clutch her to me and roll over to be on top, stroking into her deep than before.
"Oh Bav....!" She cries when I run my tongue down her neck, licking and biting and suckling at her sensitive flesh.
"I love you, Kara." I tell her in between each thrust. " How I have missed being home,.... hearing your voice,.... your sounds."
She clings to me panting and running her hands all over my back. She clings to me tighter as I feel her grip me like a vice. I'm about to lose my control.
"Kara." I moan out as she grips me harder against her.
"Bav!" Her cry pushes me to the edge but I can't back out of her as she grips me. Her bodies orgasm milks my member for all it's worth as we both shudder in and moan, kissing each other in bliss.
I'm still holding her in my arms as she whimpers in pleasure with each pulsating spasm her body does along the length of my cock. She strokes my face, pulling me down to kiss her and then holds me close.
My heart swells with joy and love. My Kara is in my arms and I feel whole again.
