In the turquoise room of Tiger Castle, sneaky Sharchan continued to kiss Sienna but she shook her head..." You promised to take me to the garden, it is nearly before lunch, so let's go now, after we eat and then I will continue my painting..." she said seriously."I need to colour my pictures and copy the writing too. I still have a lot of work."
"But when will you have time for me?"Sharchan bit his lips playing to be heartbroken.
"Well, in the garden, no? We go for a walk together..." she smiled gently, trying to coax him."Such a drama Queen!" she thought shaking her head at his theatrical performance. Sharchan always behaved as if there was no tomorrow!
"In the garden?"The snake smiled cheekily."Sure, I will show you a special place. It is a surprise."
"You made me a surprise?"Sienna asked curiously.
"Yes, and Sarcos help me with it too... just for you!" he said in a honey-like voice.
"Ok." Sienna nodded curiously."It must be something special if Sarcos helped him to make it." she thought.
Sharchan took a light blue velvet cape and put it over her shoulders. Sienna just clenched into his arm as he led her out. She was curious about what he wanted to show her. Sharchan led her secretively through the garden till they came to a tall dark green hedge maze.
"A maze?" Sienna looked surprised.
"Yes, I made it for you so that we can have fun..." he smiled cheekily.
"I do not want to get lost. Are you sure you know the way in and out?" Sienna asked seriously.
"I told you I made it, so how can I get lost?"Sharchan shook his head while rolling his eyes up."Sure I know my way. Have no worries, my love. We will not be long. I know you have a lot of work to do..."He said reassuringly.
"Ok, then."Sienna nodded and stepped inside holding his hand. Sharchan led her through the maze, the space was green and the air chilly, it felt quite invigorating. Sienna felt Sharchan's hand hold her tightly as she glanced at his burly figure. He was so handsome! It made her happy just to look at him, especially, when he was behaving so sweetly.
Sienna had a nice walk with Sharchan...The maze had beautiful blooming flowers planted inside little secret hideouts and an evergreen hedge was a nice sight after the trees with no leaves in the rest of the garden. Well, apart from a few pines.
Suddenly, a golden shine blitzed in Sienna's eyes and she saw the outlines of Sharchan's golden cage! The roses were still as beautiful as when she first saw them, but Sienna felt her face cringed uncomfortably. She hoped he would not lock her in the cold garden! But as he took her closer she realized that the cage was open. It was missing one side and it had a beautiful carved bench inside, with soft turquoise and gold cushions. The cage itself was covered with lots of flowers and green leaves which were climbing its golden bars. It did look like a romantic scene from a fairytale!
Sienna stopped cringing and looked at the dreamy sight. The soft smile appeared on her lips..."That is why he said Sarcos's helped him."She chuckled in her mind.
"I'm happy you like my cage now."Sharchan grinned and took her inside.
"I see no cage..."Sienna smiled cheekily. "This is a hideout for a fairy." She smiled at him challengingly.
"You are my fairy!"Sharchan chuckled and pulled her closer to him."You are so beautiful and soft, I can't wait to lay on you again..."He rasped squeezing her waist hotly.
"Are you calling me fat?" Sienna looked at him seriously.
"Do you think you are fat?"Sharchan asked lifting his eyebrow.
"No," Sienna ran her hand on her flat stomach."I'm curvy but not fat," she said quite content.
"Then I do not know why you are asking me such a stupid question."He shook his head."Besides, I will love you even if you are fat, you are mine forever."He licked his lips hungrily.
"Ok, thank you, my love. But I do not want to get fat...I have to start exercising more..."She noted...
"I will exercise with you."Sharchan smiled seductively.
"How?"Sienna asked him a bit suspiciously. He was in a very good mood somehow.
"Well, the best exercise is sex."He chuckled."It keeps one young, happy and fit..." he licked his lips again.
"Sure..."Sienna puckered her lips..."Is that how you got your huge muscles?"She asked satirically.
"Shhh, of course not! Do not interrogate me! You are my first and only mate!" He hissed possesivley.
"Come sit with me then," she smiled at him sheepishly. She did not want to craze him up more...
"Hm," Sharchan sat next to her and cuddled her on his wide chest. Sienna felt his warmth as a comfortable cloud, he felt so safe to her. She watched the sky and birds flying over the maze and ones hiding in its bushes. The hedges were full of life.
"So, do you like your surprise?"Sharchan asked innocently.
"Yes, it is very beautiful," Sienna nodded." So much better than a cage." she bit her lips.
"You might kiss me as my reward!"Sharchan captured her face between his hands.
"Sure, you deserve it..." Sienna nodded a little satirically but kissed him gently. It was utterly ridiculous from him but she decided to play along. The kiss was a much nicer use of her time than a lengthy explanation of why he did not actually deserve it in this instance...
Sharchan seized Sienna's lips and she found herself in a rather passionate embrace. His hands were sliding down her body.
"What are you doing?"She asked him into the kiss.
"I'm just making sure you are not cold ." He kept kissing her and Sienna felt his hot lips travel around her face to her neck as he embraced her tightly...
His lips were hot and it felt serene to her skin cold from the chilly air...
Sharchan pressed Sienna on himself and she was melting again at the sound of his heartbeat. Sienna gave in to his kisses and till she sobered a little she was sitting on top of him covered in his cape. He was already plunged in her insides and she felt her inner core throbbing at the pleasure he was giving her!
"What are we doing?"She asked coming out of a daze. She watched as the soft steam was leaving her lips. It was cold, but she was boiling.
"Relax, I'm just keeping you warm..."Sharchan grinned and pressed her buttock harder on himself making her shriek softly.
"What if someone sees us?"She asked worried...
"Nobody will come here."Sharchan smiled."Besides, you are all covered anyway. If you do not scream too loud we will not alert anyone." he thrust inside of her hard and Sienna covered her mouth not to shriek. She was doing it with him in the garden...Well, in the maze! Sienna glanced at the dense bushes..."Surely no one will see us in here..."She thought and let Sharchan continue his seductive advances...It felt like something hot and forbidden making her blush as she even thought of it but it was too late to stop. Her body craved what Sharchan was giving her and the cute mischievous expression on his face was making her feel somehow naughty too. "After all, Sharchan is from this world and if he did not find it inappropriate it should be all right anyway!"The thought flashed in her mind as she held onto his neck kissing him passionately feeling him move inside of her body strongly...It left her gasping for air trying to be as quiet as possible, the steam leaving their bodies heated in pleasure...Sharchan hugged her tight as he finished within her. Sienna felt like one with him, her body shaking softly still catching her breath her hot mate taken away with his steaming kisses.
"He is way too good at twisting my mind and making me do stuff, but this was so good."Sienna started to think again...She felt her body broken but was secretly happy. It was kind of a nice adventure...She held onto Sharchan's arm as he helped her to fix her dress and they went back rather fast...Sienna went to bathe and Sharchan went to see Tyrell...
When the strong Snake King opened the door to Tyrell's office he found him feeding a sleek bird of prey.
"Marco is coming tomorrow evening..."He held a piece of paper with Marco's mark grinning wildly...
"Nice..."Sharchan hissed.
"I hope you did not tire our mate much."Tyrell grinned at him."You reek from her."
" I'm not forbidding you to reek too," Sharchan grinned proudly and went to his room to bathe...Well, it's more like he was lounging in the hot water and replaying his plan to get rid of Marco to be exact...
Meanwhile, sweetly tired Sienna ate some buns and went on to draw the cruel book...The figures seemed to come to life under her fingers and she studied the expression of each person she drew....she could see the desperation in their faces, the sadness, the cruelty...it was as if she was reliving their story as she drew.... Only the Crystal Emperor seemed power crazy while happily obsessed with his ethereal beauty...
Sienna did not like the picture of the Butterfly Princess. With her weirdly shaped cheekbones and big eyes, she was entirely different and so cold...She could feel the ice just seeping from her..."She must be so cruel..."Sienna shook her head..." Or depressed..."Sienna kept thinking why the princess did not even battle an eyelid at Crystal Emperor's ridiculous sacrifices..."Maybe she saw he was crazy...but he did not get her anyway...The last page shows that he finally kills everyone in her castle and then he captures her in his crystal cage so she cannot fly away from him. He went on holding her hand briefly as the huge army of the undead attacked the city..." We will be ruling forever, wait for me, my Queen!" he said to her as he went to fight off again...
"What happened to him?" Sienna was wondering."Did he win over the army of undead? Did they stay together? Or was he defeated and she died in that cage? Who led the undead army? Who was strong enough to fight him?"Sienna felt puzzled. The possibilities were endless and her creative mind was spinning different endings as she drew the pictures...
"I need to find out how the story ends..." she thought and kept drawing.
As nightfall approached the Tiger Castle, tired Sienna left the books and drawings on the table and went to eat her dinner in her bed. She ate vegetable soup slowly, thinking about the cruel story, the pictures stuck in her mind fluttering as the colourful butterfly wings.
"How is my beautiful Queen?"Tyrell came inside the room suddenly.
"Tired my love."Sienna nodded.
Tyrell sat next to her on the bed. She finished the soup and put the bowl on her side table. Then she just cuddled up to him.
"I missed you so much."She bit her lips as she burrowed into his wide chest. He was warm and felt like home to her.
"I missed you too."Tyrell hugged her tight."I see you were working hard." he nodded.
"Yes, but not more than you."She smiled softly at him." That story is so cruel. I feel so sorry for the people..." Sienna nodded."I hope he is not the Crystal Pincer."She bit her lips uncomfortably.
"I do not like that story either. I hated it as a kid because it was too much bloody for nothing and he was boasting about his ridiculous powers too much."Tyrell nodded." But after I know Sarcos, everything can be possible now."He sighed worriedly.
"Do you know how it ends?"Sienna asked curiously.
"I was never too interested." Tyrell noted."I thought it was just a fairytale, I was sure nobody could have power like that." he chuckled a bit desperately." It looks like my mother was right when she lectured me to consider everything is possible." he chuckled.
"Your mother knows the story?"Sienna asked.
"Sure, she always thought it was all true. She sees it as a romantic story and has her own ending." He grinned satirically...
"What ending?"Sienna asked curiously.
" I never listen to it."Tyrell shook his head..."I was not interested and always fell asleep."
"Aha."Sienna sighed."At least you are not asleep when I'm talking to you..."She nudged his shoulder."Tyrell, tell me about your mother!"Sienna lifted her head, but Tyrell looked sleeping.
"Hey! Stop playing you are asleep and tell me about your mother!" Sienna knocked on his forehead. "Stop pretending!"
"Hm. It is too much to tell. Come visit my parents with me, hm? They can't wait to meet you..." he smiled looking into her wilden-up blue tiger eyes..." Will you go?" he asked hopefully.
"Sure, my love...I will be so happy to meet them!" she nodded sweetly, "I bet they are as amazing as you..." she cuddled up to him.
"My mother longs to meet you and my father too..." he smiled..."We can go in a few days..." he nodded..."When it be safe." he thought...
"It will be so great!"Sienna smiled and stood up to get ready for bed. Tyrell watched her beautiful figure pacing from the bathroom in and out and changing into the warm blue velvet nightgown. She looked like a dreamy picture of love to him, almost unreal.
After Sienna got ready to go to sleep, she closed her eyes tiredly."Another busy day indeed, still so much to do."She thought falling asleep on Tyrell's warm shoulder, not knowing that deep within the Crystal City an artist was working hard at his new figures with her likeness.
