Shey and Dherris: A scene of love

Story by SashaLupe on SoFurry

This is a love scene between my character (Shey) and my friend Forgotten Wolf (Dherris). These two characters are ours and are the main characters in a book series we are writing together. While reading over some of it I decided to post it here to get the opinions of some people here. Both of these characters are the soul property of he and I so no taking.

The scene is following an emotional moment, when Shey (A werewolf) runs into her first mate and love whom she thought dead. Now she is seeking comfort from Dherris who new mate who is an incubus. Hope you all enjoy, comments are welcomed.

p.s. This was done over IMs so that is why there is that back and forth feel to it.


Shey clung to Dherris like she had never clung to anyone before, not since Jack.....thinking of him and those nights, those moments made Shey cling even more to Dherris if that was even possible and with all the other stresses she was going through she could not take thinking of him anymore. *Dherris...I need to forget...* she sent to her mate desperately as she felt herself slipping away, almost like she was drowning in all her past pain and torment. *Make love to me Dherris...* she sent to him as her hands clung to his body. *No senseless fucking, but actual love...I need to feel it, to feel your love for me.....please...* she was desperate to not fall victim to herself, not to fall victim to all the pain she had buried long ago, she was not prepared to deal with all of that; though she doubted that she ever would be.

Dherris could barely stand it, seeing Shey like this, feeling Shey like this was starting to tear at him. He couldn't leave her though; as much as he wanted to get away from the pain, the need to stay with her and help her was greater. Then her plea hit him and shook him to the core... for once he was afraid of such a request. He wanted to, needed to help Shey but he wasn't sure he could.

He couldn't give her up though and from that fear and need to help and protect her, he acted. He held her close so that head was close to his chest where his dark heart could be heard pounding beneath the surface. His wings closed around them in an effort to protect her and to try block out the world from disturbing them in that small solace. Even his tail wrapped protectively around her waist as he rested his chin on her head. He tried to find some words for her but the only thing that slipped out was *I'm sorry I wasn't there for you sooner...* as he felt something wet trail down his cheek to his chin and ultimately into her hair.

Shey hiccuped as she swallowed a sob that threatened to overwhelm her, *I should not have shut you out. I felt so wrong for what I was feeling and...* her thoughts were actually cut off as she openly sobbed now into his chest. She could feel his heart racing beneath her lips which were pressed lightly to his chest. Shey did not know what she would have done had Dherris not been here for some reason like she had lost him in that fight then seen Jack but then felt guilty for feeling for him so soon after Dherris's death. In fact now in his arms as she was, enclosed with him within his wings she knew for a fact that had Dherris died she would have lost the will to live, to will to continue fighting in world that seemed bent on hurting her. Slowly her lips began to kiss gently on his chest, actually taking the time to fully appreciate the feel of him the taste of him as he held her in his arms. With a lazy kind of attitude, with her savoring everyone, she kissed her way lightly up his chest, his collarbone, his neck, his jaw and finally his lips. With the utmost care she took his lips into her own, seeming like she tasted them for the very first time. There was no rush in her actions just simple need and a yearning.....

*It's all right.* was all Dherris could put together in a comforting and supporting mental tone. Sure other words came to mind but they seemed too long for this simple moment in time. When her kiss came, he returned it softly and simply for it was a moment to be truly experienced rather than rushed. He was slow to separate from her kiss as well but there was more that he wanted. In the shadowy area in between his wings, while he could have used his demonic eyes to see her clearly he didn't want them for now. His hand came up to caress and cradle the side of her face taking its time to memorize and enjoy the feel of the flesh. It eventually ventured on, following the outline and contours of her body in no rush as it took in every piece with new meaning...

Shey closed her eyes and allowed herself to completely savor what was happening between them, enclosed as they were it truly was like they were the only ones in the entire world, which was all that mattered to her at this moment. Her own hands reached up and they began at the sides of his face gently gliding over the line of his jaw back to his hair, her fingers working their way through his hair, her fingers working their way through his hair before making their way down slowly along his neck and across his shoulders feeling his heat, the play of the muscle beneath his skin. Then for the first time her hands glided along the inside of his wings.......

A shiver passed through Dherris as her hand passed over the sensitive membranes of his wings and his eyes actually closed to enjoy the sensation. His tail slipped under her top and rubbed and slide along her belly noting how different the feel was compared to normal flesh against flesh. His hands similarly slid up under her top along her back to take in the feel of the flesh and muscle without the barrier of clothe to dilute the truth. A part of him wanted to remove the top from her but that would require having to remove her hands from his wings... and he wasn't quite ready to give up the slow caresses just yet.

Shey felt her heart rate increase a bit as she felt his tail glide over her skin, it was so different touching it and experiencing it this way....his hands on her back brought forth the smallest moan as he touched and caressed her back. She could feel the muscles there relax instantly from his touch. Her own hands continued their exploration of his wings, marveling how soft and delicate they really were....

His breathing grew a bit deeper as her hands continued to glide upon his wings, his long exhales bordered on being sighs or small moans of pleasure. He finally gathered up enough willpower to remove her top slowly, drinking in the sight of the newly uncovered skin as it was exposed. It was almost painful for him when finally she had to move her hands away from his wings for the top to be fully removed. Once it was out of the way though, his hands retraced over areas that had formerly been covered to draw in the feel and shape of her body again. Eventually it wasn't quite enough though, and his lips joined the crusade. Slowly working their way along her body to trace the shape, the feel, and now even the taste and aroma of her body which were seemingly made all the stronger without the ability to see properly.

Shey gasped as she felt his hands glide up the sides of her bare skin, as he slowly lifted her shirt up and over her head. The gasp became a soft moan as she arched her back a bit, giving more of herself to him to explore with his hands and lips. Her eyes remained close as she did not want all the sensations to be ruined by her vision, she wanted to touch and taste him in a way that she had never done before.....

Dherris' lips flowed lazily across her skin, moving with great care and focus along her neck to her shoulder and then to trail along her collar bone. They worked ever downward till they were just above her covered breasts but he wasn't in a hurry to expose them. He lifted his lips till they were just barely off the flesh there and slowly took in a breath. As the air gradually filled his lungs, her scent filled his nostrils smelling of a soldier at war (the faint hint of smoke, blood, and death clung despite showers), of sorrow (the saltiness of tears), of predatory origin (an almost indescribable animalistic smell), and of a woman. When his lungs were full, he held the breath in for a moment to fully take in the scent and memorize it before exhaling slowly from his mouth letting his warm moist breath play softly across her skin. As he lips started to brush against her skin again, he could hear the beating of her heart pounding in his ears... or was it his own? Or perhaps both of their hearts? Did it really even matter anymore?...

Shey felt herself tremor as she felt those soft lips of his explore her body, lips that she often felt with the heat and aggression that came from their earlier activities. Now though it was different, as she sat there with him held in his arms, shielded from the rest of the world within his wings. His scent feeling her nostrils seeming to fill that void that was within her body and soul completing her and making her whole once again. A moan came from her lips as she felt his hot moist breath on her skin, making her shiver despite its warmth. The thunderous sound of her beating heart roared in her ears as she ran her hands up his arms slowly, her fingertips taking their time to explore every line and indentation of the muscles that were there as they glided up to his shoulders and up to his neck. There resting at the back of his neck her finger near his pulse she could almost swear they were now beating in unison despite the increased pace....From there her hands moved down his back till they came to his wings once more, now she took the time rub up and down on the thick powerful muscled stalks that came from his back.....her pace still slow and with no rush like she wanted capture his image with her hands and nothing else.....

Again Dherris shook as her hands returned to his wings and small moan of pleasure escaped him. He nuzzled against her slightly as she traced along his wings. Their little enclosed area faltered a bit as his wings started to flutter slightly under the attention they were receiving. His tail coiled slightly tighter for a moment before he was able to redirect to learn the contours of somewhere new. The tail almost slithered back and forth as it worked its way up her back until it could finally start tracing along her shoulders. His lips found their way back to hers taste and savor the sweet sensation that was theirs alone. The serpentine appendage soon finished its prospecting along her shoulders, sliding over them and down to take in the land his lips had traveled just moments before.

Her hands left his wings to wrap about his shoulders and hug him close as their lips found each other once more, each of them taking their time to explore and taste, to discover each and every unique flavor and feel that made up the others lips. Feeling his tail on her body she could not help but moan softly into the kiss as it danced and caressed her body in a way she had not thought possible. Though her body began to demand air she was slow to break the kiss as she now slowly slipped her tongue into his mouth, wanting to taste and explore this part of him as well, though she was still very aware of the actions and movements of his tail....

He granted her tongue free passage into his mouth and in exchange he sent his to hers though the two would cross paths their time was spent more from and of one another than anything else. He broke the exchange for a moment though to allow the chance to truly breathe again but was still so close that their lips brushed against one another. And with once again filled lungs, he lazily brought back the kiss and the deeper explorations they had started. His tail hadn't forgotten its duty during this whole exchange though and was tracing its way from one side to another as it worked its way down her chest. Once it reached the tops of her breasts, its explorations seemed to grow slower and more meticulous. It was deliberate in its movements as it moved along what exposed flesh it could on one breast before sinking down in the valley between as it made its slow transition from one breast to the other.

The slow and sensual way that they explored one another's mouth made her heart race even faster, when the kiss was broken she found herself panting with the mixture of emotions and sensations she was experiencing. The slight brush of his lips against her own made her gasp, the feel of his tail as it caressed the sensitive flesh of her breasts made her moan before they were once again exploring each other's mouths. Again her hands moved to his wings, seeming to be more fascinated by them because they were the one thing she had never really had a chance to touch and explore freely....now with this moment she was taking her time in doing so.....

A shiver passed through him originating under her hand and sliding down his spine to even travel through his tail. He moaned a bit into their kiss as her hands were starting to drive him crazy. He made a decision as he slipped from the kiss once again: it was time for the bra to go. His hands slid up her sides until they reached the last piece of cloth protection on her upper body. Again he was slow in the removal of the article, taking time to draw in the image of every newly exposed inch of skin as it appeared. Once it was completely clear, it was discarded with the top to someplace outside of his encircled wings, in the world that did not matter at this very moment. His decision was made for two fold: one was to be able to increase the amount of direct contact between the two of them, and to get her hands off of his wings again for a few seconds. Unfortunately it would only be for a few seconds unless he did something. *Careful Shey,* he sent with love. *You don't realize how wonderful and maddening it is when your hands are on my wings.*

Shey smiled at Dherris, though with the removal of her bra made her shiver a bit in anticipation as she glided her hands up and down his wings still slowly, wanting to touch them and to hear his reaction to her caresses *Show me how it feels when I touch them....show me just how maddening my touch is to you...* she sent back with a hint of tease though mostly love as she continued the slow and steady exploration of his wings.

Dherris thought... or at least thought as best he could with Shey's hands distracting him, on how he could properly show her what she was doing him. Only one thing popped into his mind as he drew her close to get as much contact as possible from her and while possibly a bit drastic she needed to understand. He nuzzled against her neck for a second, *If that is what you want...* he almost whispered across their link. He started to plant light kisses on her neck and shoulder, with every one he opened his link to her a bit more to allow what he was feeling to flow to her. Once it opened up enough she would understand, she would feel how sensitive the wings were, how with ever move he had to fight not to shiver or have his wings flutter with pleasure, and even how hard it was for him to resist the urge to just give into the sensations. Now she would really understand what it was like to have someone caressing your wings.

Shey hugged herself closer to him, loving the way their bare skin felt against each other, whimpering in soft pleasure from the nuzzling she found herself completely focused on the man in her arms. As the kisses began she moaned softly at first, though as more and more of the link was opened to her, the deeper and louder her moans became until finally as he opened it completely and let her feel what he felt she practically cried out. This feeling was intense with the link opened so completely that she could feel him touching her and her touching him, it was like truly being one body, one soul, one heart.... Her eyes had shifted to a crimson gold as more of her inner self came forth, her desire for him stronger though she still held off. Not saying anything she leaned forward and began to kiss, nibble and lick her way along his neck and shoulder, shivering as she felt the pleasure he was feeling in herself as well....

It was almost dangerous feedback loop of pleasure as the sensations of one flowed to the other... but he wouldn't have changed it for how wonderful it was. He didn't moan... the feeling was too good to form a sound to describe it and instead was simply answered with a sharp inhale and another long breath against her skin. His hands slid along her back with his tail working to stay out of their way becoming almost a serpent-like aura that extended out slightly beyond his hands. Though his eyes were brightly shining their demonic nature, they were kept behind closed lids as he just soaked in the pleasure of everything. If only he could keep that moment forever of feeling her against him with the hearts and minds almost intertwining as well. His wings overlapped as he pulled them in tighter to almost cocoon the two of them together...

Taking everything in experiencing everything with the man who held her was beyond pleasure; it was something that bordered on an other-worldly experience. Still holding on to him she leaned back pulling him with her till she was now resting on her back with his body resting on top of her own. She leans up and once again slowly took his mouth into her own, tongue going to explore his while her hands kneaded the muscles in his shoulders before moving down his chest. Her pace was slow and deliberate as she allowed her finger tips to dance across definition of muscle that was there, now she realized even more that his body was the perfect specimen of the male form. With her eyes closed with her fingers doing the seeing she was able feel every inch of his body now, it was amazing... He was perfect for her.....the one person she knew she could count on....the one who would live as long as her and was able to survive through what it truly took to be her mate.....this thought and realization made her heart leap with joy, even brought forth silent tears of happiness as she gave herself over to him.....trusting him completely with her body, heart and soul.....

Instinctively, Dherris' wings and tail moved out of the way so they wouldn't be painfully trapped beneath his mate's form. His wings he kept close though, trying to keep their private haven intact from the rest of the world despite the change of position. It was one thing when they had claimed each other as mates but now it was something different... Now it wasn't him claiming her or her claiming him... but rather her giving herself over to him. This was something new and something almost completely overwhelming for the incubus. He couldn't deny her either and as soon has her call had sunk in and settled within his blackened heart and soul; he handed himself over to her for she was all the mattered in that moment. While he could have mirrored her actions to him and gone about seeing her form by touch only, he felt a different idea enter him. His tail moved and coiled up her arm slightly before its tip reached her hand. With great care, it slid across the back on the hand and nestled between two of her fingers. Now as her hand learned all it could from their trailing, his tail added a new dimension as it followed suit by sending the sensations through him and across the link to her. Now she was not seeing how his flesh was compared to her own but also to the unusual serpent like appendage as well.

Shey felt him give himself to her and she was moved beyond words to know that not only did he love her but he gave himself to her freely. Feeling the sensation of his tail through their link, feeling him control it and yet not control it was different. She also felt how sensitive it was and how it reacted when she moved to caress and touch it, her hands taking their time in exploring this new part of her mate. Yet with each touch and stroke from her hands she herself shivered with the growing need and desire that was being stirred from the sensation being transferred through their link, as well as her own as their deep and passionate kiss continued between the two of them.

*Wishing you had one?* He teased slightly when she turned her attention to his tail and when her body shivered with the pleasure that passed through him to her. The kiss just seemed to grow slowly in its deepness and passion till air forced them apart. He opened his eyes finally to look down upon her, her form looking magnificent as ever even in the artificial twilight. The visible scars told of the hardships and pain she had endured, her well built body telling him of the strength she held, and though her eyes held mostly love and desire, he could still see the hints of the predator that she was as well. She was the perfect huntress to the point where Dherris would even be so bold to say she might give Artemis a run for her money. His tail came free from her arm and stroked lightly along the side of her face while he had one of his hands doing the same to the other side. *Do I really deserve someone like you?* The thought slipped across the link before he realized it as he remembered how low he was made to feel and forced to take a rank close to being a bottom feeder in his master's court.

Shey grinned, *Maybe. Though I don't think I have the patience to put up with it when it wants to do its own thing.* she teased him and as the kiss broke and she finally looked up into his eyes, for a moment it was hard to breath from the wave of emotions that washed over her from looking at him. Seeing the love there and the desire for her, but almost that same confident and cocky attitude that she remembered from when she first saw him in that bar which seemed almost like a lifetime ago. Her eyes closed again as she gave herself over to the sensation of his hand and tail caressing her face, though when he spoke over their link her eyes opened again and her own hands moved to cup the sides of his face as she looked him directly in the eye. *I know now that you were made for me and I for you... all that I have been through and suffered through was so that I would come to appreciate you when you came into my life. You deserve me as I deserve you....you are the other side of my soul. The other piece that completes me and makes me whole...* she sends to him with all the love she had for him as well as the fact that she believed this in her heart to be true without a doubt.

It was Dherris' turn to have silent tears of joy run down his face as her words echoed in his mind, heart, and soul. A new determination fire was added to his plans, not only so he would break free from his tormenting ruler and take a place of power he craved but now he wanted it so Shey would have a life she properly deserved and so she would be safe as well. *... and you are my other half...* He sent back with his love and joy as he returned to her lips with a renewed passion with his heart pounding in his ears. He couldn't maintain it for long though as went to sit back. His wings, unable to stretch far enough, finally parted to allow the light of the outside world to penetrate through but it couldn't do anything to ruin Shey's beauty in his eyes. As he began to sit back on his feet, his hand lightly and slowly dragged its way down her body traveling through a sensual valley and across the plains of her stomach till they reached an impassable line. The line of the top of her pants, one of the last barriers she had between him and her, but as his hand slid along that line he found himself hesitant to venture any further. He found himself worried that should that piece go that for some reason the wonderful moment they were sharing would somehow dissipate. Was he willing to risk it to feel more undiluted contact of his mate? He wasn't sure and his gaze seemed far off as he relived the past few moments and as his fingers continued to pace that line.

Shey could have died right then and there and would have done so happily with the knowledge that she had found her true soul mate. Kissing him with the renewed passion reminded her that she was very much alive and that despite the darkness this was in fact not a dream. When he pulled back from her lips she felt a sense of lost though this was replaced by a shiver of pleasure as she closed her eyes and felt his hand slide slowly over the length of her body. When he stopped at the top of her pants, his hand dancing along its edge she opened her eyes to look up at him, seeing and feeling his fear for the possibility of ruining this tender moment by going further. Her own hand found his own and guided it slowly to the buttons that held her pants closed, drawing his gaze with her own she held it as she helped him in slowly undoing one button at a time till there were no more. Finding his other hand she brought them both to the top of her pants and then together they slipped the material down from her body as she rose ever so slightly to allow them to be completely removed from her body. Looking up to him she held her arms up to him once more, waiting, yearning and giving of herself to him.

Dherris kept his eyes focused on hers even as his hands moved with hers. It wasn't until the small ripple of motion that went through Shey as the pants were removed that his eyes moved. They drifted slowly down along her bare form, committing every inch to memory as a map of paradise. As they reached the newly uncovered land of flesh, a flicker of lust entered his eyes and he slowly closed them to try to prevent it from growing. Unfortunately her figure was burn into his mind now and even with his eyes closed he could see her with absolute perfection. He could feel her move again, and his eyes slowly crept open to see her with her arms opened to him. His lust was buried under other emotions at the sight and was driven to return to her embrace. He was slow lower himself back to her, his hand sliding up the outside of a now bare leg as he moved himself over her once again. He hovered above her face for a moment looking into her red/gold eyes before whispering *too perfect* with love and awe to her. He brought back the passionate kisses that they had been sharing and growing since the beginning as his wings returned to try to isolate the two lovers from the rest of the cruel world.

Shey was in another world as their lips met again, hearing him call her perfect, seeing the way he looked her in the eyes was almost too much for her and as their lips met again she felt her body burn with such a passion and a desire that she had never thought possible. Her arms went about his neck and pulling him closer to her, holding him closer to her as she tried to feel as much his body again against her own. As they were once again enveloped within his wings she felt her heart race from the intimacy of the moment.

Dherris mirrored her need to for contact between the two of them, holding her as close as possible and his tail slipped down to coil around a leg just for the contact. As great as it was to have gotten her pants out of the way, the goal of truly feeling her fell short slightly with the existence of his pants. Still he didn't want to tear free of her arms and closeness to get them out of the way. It was almost enough just to be that close to her as their lips parted and he slid his face next to hers cheek to cheek rubbing and nuzzling at being so close. He almost shivered from the heat passing between the two of them that just kept growing and just kept soothing deeper into his body, heart, and soul.

The heat, the scent and the overall feel of his body against her own was maddening in the intimacy of moment; she had never thought she could be so close to one person before yet here she was practically sharing the same body and soul with the man above her; her soul mate. With the link as it was it was almost like they were of the same mind as well as soul, whimpering in pleasure as he nuzzled her face and neck her hands slipped slowly from his neck and trailed down his chest to his pants. There she stopped at the top of the pants and waited till he was looking into her eyes again as she slowly undid the button, then the zipper and slowly she began to push them down his waist. Though there was only so much she could do on her own without his assistance to further move the pants from his body.

Too many pieces, too many physical barriers stood between them but with each one that was removed a new level of meaning and life was brought to their bounding. As much as he might have wanted to rush getting another layer out of the way, he paced himself neither trying to be fast nor slow as he got his pants out of the way. Still the action required him to move away from Shey a bit and given how he felt at that moment even a second or two was too long. Once free though he was quick to return to her warmth and embracing arms. More contact between the two, closer they seemed to be getting to just giving up the illusion that they were two creatures and melting into one complete being. A memory from earlier entered his mind and a similar question was raised again. *Are all you're Heats this amazing?* Even the thought came across almost breathlessly as he reveled in the feel of her body against his, her mind linked with his, and her heart entwined in his. He couldn't help but want to taste her lips again as if it could save him from starvation... perhaps it was even true that some part of him would starve without her kiss if gone too long for she was now as essential to his life as air or water...

Shey kissed his lips with equal passion, feeling the full contact of his body against her own was amazing as she could feel the sensation of him feeling her through his own body through their link, *This is a first time for me as well.* she replied to him as she basically gave herself over to him and allowed for them to truly become one as she lost herself with desire and need for him. *Besides this is not my Heat doing this....this is my love for you.* she sent back with every ounce of love she had in her heart for the man above her. Shey could not even think back to her life now before Dherris, that was all in the past, for this moment in time all that mattered was the two of them and their love for one another.

*Even better...* He sent with all the emotions running through him. His slipped from her lips and slid down, making sure to keep his lips or cheek in constant contact with her flesh as he trailed sensually down. Upon reaching her womanly peaks, his southward travel detoured to learn the rising landscape with slow movements of his lips and cheeks dragging along her skin. *It makes this mean so much more.* Once he finished with one peak, he went to the next to learn it in much the same manner. Only once he was certain he had learned everything from those explorations did he begin to planted slow and light kisses upon her breasts and the valley between. He shivered himself at the sensations spilling over from her to him but that only drove him to be more determined in making sure every motion was made to count.

Shey shivered and squirmed slightly in the bed as she felt each and every touch of his lips like a small bolt of lightning coursing through her body. As he began to explore the more sensitive portions of her body she gasped and felt her body arch up to him, as she seemed to be experiencing everything with him for the first time though they had experienced and shared one another's body many many times. *Dherris...* she moaned through their link as she shared with him the sensations that were going through her body.

*... Shey* Was his only reply in much the same manner as she had called to him. A hand of his came up to lightly run over the area that his lips were currently caring for, to learn what it could compared to his lips. With slow caresses, his fingertips worked along and grew into almost a soft massage of the wonderful mounds as it gathered all of the feelings it could from the whole time, committing each part to memory. He moved to the side slightly to allow the hand to move on as it felt its calling somewhere further to the south but once it reached her belly it slowed to a halt. Slowly it rubbed over the area and he found his eyes drawn down to look at it and her. Though he knew there wasn't anything there just yet, the knowledge of what might soon lay inside of her set shivers of fear and excitement through him. Would he really be ready for such a big challenge? Maybe... Just maybe with Shey by him, he would be strong enough for her... and their possible future children...

Shey closed her eyes as she allowed herself to fully enjoy him pleasuring her with nothing but his lips and fingers, though when his hand stopped to rub on her stomach gently she opened her eyes and lifted her head to look down at him. The tender way that he was touching her there made her choke for a moment with the emotions she felt seeing him so gentle with her there and feeling his emotions about their future children. *Together we will be strong enough to face whatever may come...* she sent him with love and reassurance through their link.

A small smile forming on his face was Dherris' only reply as his gaze returned to her eyes. His hand went still on her stomach for a long while before lifting up to till just his finger tips were in contact with her skin. It traced it self lower to slowly travel on the top of her thigh down to her knee before turning around and going back up. Similarly to the pants, the hand traced along the waistline of her panties for awhile but there was a difference this time. After about the second pass, his hand slowed as it reached the middle and then started to trace down the front. His touch was light at first as he took in this final frontier through a cloth filter but eventually it grew to learn on another level. Once or twice he slipped off to trail along her inner thighs to take them in as well before returning to the hand's previous route. Time passed though and he returned to the waistline to slide to one side, his other hand caressing its way to the other side. Slowly, without any rush or hurry to clear this final barricade, he gently started to tug her panties down and could only gaze in awe as if there was the possibility that he might be struck blind before he could see his mate in her purest form.

Leaning back her head as he resumed his exploration of her body, the touches once again sending shivers down her spine and through her body as she felt everywhere his finger touched even long after it had gone. It was like a pleasant torture to lay there and allow him to take his time with her, to tease her as he went slowly down her leg and then back up again, how her danced at the waistline of her panties. Pulling forth a sharp gasp as his finger lightly traced over that sensitive flesh through the fabric of her panties. Losing track of time as she just gave in to feeling him touching and exploring her body so gently, that when she felt him actually begin to remove her panties that she held her breath and tried to slow her heart so that she could enjoy each and every moment as she felt the soft material get pulled so tenderly away from her body.

Eventually the small covering would come free of her body revealing the huntress of the night, darkness, and earth in all of her splendor. It was almost too much for the creature that lay with her. He could feel her holding her breath and knew instinctively why through their close mental binding. He leaned and brought his head down to place a kiss right where her heart was located even as his hand trailed back up the inside of her leg. Following closely behind the hand was his tail to keep as much contact as possible and to make sure not a piece of flesh was left untraveled. He returned to that delicate and sensitive area to run lightly upon it unhindered and found himself moaning at the shared sensation. He kept his tail clear of that land but kept it occupied on the nearby thighs. Finally it became too much and he moved the hand away to glide over to hers. He caresses her hand for a second before guiding it over to the waistline of his underwear. There he handed the decision over to her, though he would help if she chose to remove the clothing, Dherris ultimately left that last piece and choice in her control. No matter the decision he knew he'd still love her but the final revelation of flesh was for her alone.

When he kissed the place over her heart she closed her eyes as a single silent tear of love rolled down her cheek. Shey inhaled deeply and sharply as she felt his hand touch her again in that most sensitive area making her back arch in pleasure as she felt her heart race again with yearning and anticipation, the gentle caresses of his tail on her thighs making her subconsciously open her legs to him. When his hand left that area and came to her hand, the light caress there making her shiver and open her eyes to look into his own as he guided her hand to the waistline of his underwear. Slowly she allowed her fingers to trail along it, to caress the flesh there with the backs of her fingers, till she brought her other hand to join the other and together they slowly began to remove the final piece of clothing as she continued to look into his eyes.

He maintained his gaze into her eyes even as he shifted necessarily to allow that final piece of clothing to get free. With the fabric gone though, he finally realized how confined he was. Now with the new found freedom, he was also becoming increasingly aware of how long he had been waiting and how torturous and wonderful the whole time had been. Still he didn't want to rush, not to torture Shey but because this was something he might only get the chance to experience once in his eternity and he wasn't going to pass it up. Now with all layers removed, all barriers physical and metaphysical gone, he did what he should have done a long time ago: look at her. Not a passing glance, or a passionate blur, but really look at her fully. To take in her complete naked form, her mental form, and emotional form from their link and combine them into a complete picture, a true image of the woman before him... It was almost enough to bring tears of love and joy to his eyes again...

Shey laid there waiting, her body alive and waiting for him yet not wanting for this moment to end.....though her body cried out for their body's to be reunited together...to feel each other in a way they had yet to experience one another.....

He smiled and leaned over to kiss her as he enveloped her body once more. He took his time to position himself before pulled his lips back and away from her to look at her eyes. There was a moment of silence and a pause before he entered her slowly. He found himself unable to keep quiet as the feelings, both physical and emotional, that ran back and forth between them overwhelmed him to cause a long moan to escape him. Time stood still for an eternity as he bottomed out in her and he took a second to process all that he was feeling. After a moment he realized he had closed his eyes but he hadn't realized because he knew her in such a complete form that the image held true on dark eyelids. Bringing them open again he looked up his mate and slowly started to move again as he started to service her lips with all the love and passion his lips could provide. There were no demonic energies, powers, or magics this time; this time it was only him and her. Even without such abilities, the moment was overwhelmingly good for he was with, linked, and apart of his true soul mate and that was all that mattered...

Shey took his kiss eagerly in her lips, her body quaking with anticipation as she felt him position himself above her, then his lips were gone and he was looking into her eyes. Everything seemed to be holding its breath, like the whole world was waiting for this one moment...slowly he entered and Shey felt as if her body was becoming whole for the very first time in a very long time as a long moan came from her to mingle with his own. When he was fully inside of her they both just laid there to full take in that moment and together they opened their eyes to look at one another and met once more in a passionate and love filled kiss as their bodies moved in slow unison. There was no drive from her Heat, or any other outer influences as they sought to express themselves in the purest form of love....soul mates coming together after years of longing and searching....

The pace and build up were gradual to increase, not wanting to rush but fully enjoy it and bask in the union. One entity coming together for the first time in an eternity of being apart and in pieces. The mind that was Dherris just kept repeating one word over and over again with unchanging love: *Shey*. Heartbeats fell into perfect sync much like the bodies and minds of the two. The emotions and feelings just kept growing stronger as they drew closer and closer to the apex of this union that would never be forgotten.

As she moved with him she felt her body build toward a climax she had never thought was possible, though knew that this was what it truly meant to be in love, to be joining so completely with someone. Over and over she repeated, *Dherris* with equal love to how he was saying her name. Heartbeats matching at an insane pace, breathing rapid and shallow as bodies tensed and as she felt herself release she felt his at the same time. The sensation was nearly overpowering and all she could do was say allowed and think were three simple words that held so much meaning for the two of them, I love you....

I love you, The words exiting him at the same time as her as his body all the way down to his soul was overwhelmed and completed with his release. Everything became secondary, sight, sound, breathing... everything became secondary to the sensation that swept through him and her. It was an eternity later but still it was too soon in his mind when he came down from the impossible high. All he could in the face of the overwhelming afterglow, satisfaction, and completeness was to breathe and look down at his mate as a he used the back of his hand to caress the side of her face.

Shey laid there beneath her mate looking up at him, feeling all the stress of her life and of the day melt away, like nothing but a bad dream as she looked up into his eyes. She was full of such love and emotion right now that she did not want to move from this spot, though she knew that eventually they would have to rejoin the living world once again she wanted to make this moment last; for however long they could. Reaching up to him she wrapped her arms about his neck and pulled him down into a slow tender kiss, before moving into just a sweet embrace as the two of them held each other, perhaps for just a little while longer they could pretend there was nothing else in the world but their two souls beating as one.

Dherris didn't want to say anything, didn't want to ruin what was now existing between them. Unfortunately his body couldn't completely agree, more specifically his wings. Being in the position they were in for so long was unusual and they were starting to cramp up. Reluctantly he withdrew his wings slowly to fold up in their normal position on his back and exposed the reality that there was more than just the two of them that existed. Still he kept his eyes lightly closed as if to perpetuate the illusion for just a little longer.
