Toren looked at his son and grinned, motioning him forward with his sword. He back stepped and to the right as Catheous charged forward but almost missed the kick to his back by him. Toren laughed as he turned around and looked at Catheous.

"Good, you still have a lot to learn. You should ask your mother's best swordsman for more training if you want to continue as a swordsman. This is where you will be living from now on so it will be good for you to get to know your future subjects son." Toren said grabbing at a towel off of a bench and drying off his face.

Catheous nodded, breathing hard, and sitting down on the bench. He smiled at his father, wondering if his father knew he had held back in the practice ring while everyone watched. He heard a bunch of the men grumbling and a few making cat calls. He turned and saw his mother and a few of her ladies following behind her as they walked to the far end of the practice field. He looked around and saw Master Neros standing in the flying ring standing next to a bunch of weights.

He looked back at his father, not sure what was going on and noticed his mother's wings. His jaw dropped as he looked at her wings on full display for all to see, which was something he hadn't seen before. He knew his mother didn't like showing off her strange wings and he had wondered when she had last flown. He trained to fight with his wings all the time, not caring who saw his unique wings. His were similar to his mother's though without the gossamer of the fae blood, though his scales and feathers shimmered like gossamer. He watched as the women he knew to be trained assassins followed her to the flying ring, some of them joking and stretching as they walked.

Lacie, Coralina, Hikari, Tasoula, and Claire all followed Aslein to practice. They had come in earlier that morning expecting to find her snuggled up to Toren but they had been totally surprised to see her alone. Aslein had woken up as soon as they opened the door and had said she needed her old workout clothes that had been made for her and her wings as she sat up in bed. Hikari had jumped up and hollered happily to see Aslein's wings out and had run off into the closet. Tas had walked up to Aslein and smiled. The others except Coralina had moved to the bed and said words of joy at seeing her wings out. Coralina went into the closet after Hikari and had come back out with the old workout clothes and Hikari trailing behind in full height.

"Your majesty, it delights me to see you displaying your beautiful wings. But I must wonder what changed your mind or who changed it for you." Said Tas, sitting down next to Aslein on the bed, smiling happily.

"Toren and Acer...though I have to get ready for morning exercises as per Acer's orders. My wings need to be re-strengthened because I barely use them." Aslein said, closing her eyes and sighing heavily, dreading the thought of exercising early in the morning.

"Aslein, be honest, when was the last time you even flew, let alone displayed your wings?" asked Claire, slight concern in her green eyes.

Aslein smiled sheepishly before acknowledging the question, "Almost four years cousin since I last flew and a little over a week ago since I stretched them. Being able to remove my wings from my body is easy, but keeping it that way takes magic I could be putting to better use though it is a lot easier to walk without worrying about brushing into someone."

They all chuckled because they all had wings of some form and understood her worry. Hikari grinned impishly and danced around in circles, happy to see her queen so happy. She shape shifted and teleported onto Coralina's shoulder, still grinning. Lacie grinned at Coralina and turned to face Aslein.

"Well, then I suppose we all could come out and practice with you, maybe we could spar a little, though I'd prefer to have no magic being used." Said Lacie, grinning at Aslein.

All the girls nodded and asked to be allowed to join in. Aslein sighed and relented, allowing them run off to get on workout clothes of their own. Lady Tas stayed behind and looked at Aslein, her eyes dark blue with silver worried.

"Aslein, I'm wondering at the real reason you changed your mind. I know that Acer probably pushed you into this but was Toren the one who really did the pushing?" she asked, her hand reaching out to touch Aslein's arm.

"Toren influenced my decision as much as Acer, but no...I decided that it was high time I be who I really am." Aslein said, looking at her cousin and patting her hand.

Tas smiled and nodded before going off to change. All her Ladies had been professionals before coming to serve her; friends or relatives she felt would help her through the day to day life of being queen. She smiled and shook her head as she got out of bed and dressed for morning exercises.

Aslein looked over at Acer as he watched them, the look of annoyance and a hint of laughter all over his face. She grinned sheepishly and looked away, trying not to look too embarrassed by having the gaggle of women all dressed in pants and with weapons. Not all were assassins as in the case of her cousin Tas, who had been an actress, or Lady Branwen, who had been a jewel thief. Though Lady Freya wasn't there, Aslein knew she was just as comfortable as the rest of the girls were with weapons having been a courtesan. The only one of her ladies who wasn't there who wouldn't even dare pick up a weapon was Lady Lee, a close family friend from her childhood who had been a lady from birth.

She noticed that all the soldiers and guards had stopped to watch them as they passed and Aslein blushed hotly, hoping that they weren't having the thoughts she knew would run through Toren's head if he saw her dressed like this. As she neared the third ring she saw her son sitting down his mouth open as he watched her group. She smiled and walked over to Catheous and bent down to kiss his sweaty head.

"Good morning son, what are you doing here? I figured you would sleep in and enjoy a bit of freedom before your father dragged you back into training." She said, smiling happily at her son.

Catheous opened than closed his mouth, then opened it again, not sure what to say when he saw his mother's wings up close. Similar to his own wings but hers were even as to what part of her heritage was showing whereas he didn't have the fae part except for the tip. He looked behind her at all the ladies and grinned at his cousin and a few of the ladies he knew well. He noticed Coralina and Hikari were still together and that neither had changed much. He looked back up at his mother and grinned.

"Wow mom, I didn't think I'd ever see you down here training for anything. I'm training as usual with father." He said as he got up and stretched his wings.

Aslein turned and looked directly into Toren's eyes and nearly ran to hide back in her room. The look he gave her as his eyes looked up and down her body made her shiver in anticipation of tonight. Toren grinned wickedly and she almost fell to her knees as the blood rushed through her face. She turned and looked away, nodding to her son as he spoke about something.

"...father thinks it would good for me to train with your best swordsperson and to familiarize myself with how things are done here. Though I don't really need to worry since I do know who the master of the guard is and that I'm sure he would train me if I asked him." Said Catheous as he started to move away from the practice ring to the flying ring, tucking his mother's hand in the crook of his arm.

Aslein shook her head and smiled as she moved with her son, the other women following behind. She hoped that Toren wouldn't follow as well but she knew it would be too much to ask for.

"Well Theo, are you going to help me give your mother flying lessons, because even though I understand the physics and mechanics of flying; I, unlike everyone else conveniently showing up, do not have wings." Acer asked as he moved forward to bow before Aslein and Catheous.

"I will if it's okay with my task master since he had me come out here to train in the first place." Catheous said as let go of his mother's hand and turned to see his father walk up; a cold, polite face plastered on Toren's face while he looked at Acer.

Catheous looked between his father and Acer, wondering what was going on between them then shrugged figuring if it was important he would know. He looked at his mother and saw that her face was tight with worry as she looked between the two men. Even though Acer had his sunglasses on as usual, Catheous knew he was squinting against the morning sunlight since he could see clearly in the dark. He cleared his throat, bringing everyone's attention back to himself and nearly choked as he watched as his little brother jumped out of a second story window and fly over head laughing.

Toren reacted first and flew up fast to grab at the squealing little child and landed holding him squirming to his chest as he walked over to Aslein. Aslein sighed and pulled her youngest into her arms and hugged him before setting him down on the ground.

"Mik! You know better!" Aslein said before cupping his small cheek, "And you should know better than to fly out of a second story window. I've taught you better than this and you deliberately disobeyed me."

Mikhail looked down at the ground, holding both his hands and trying not to cry. He sniffled a little before he started crying and looked up at his mother, his eyes wet with tear.

"Momma! I'm sorry!! I wanted to show Theo how good I got!" Mikhail sobbed out as he hugged his mother, his little wings shaking.

Aslein sighed and picked up her son and hugged him to her. She looked at Toren and mouthed thank you before turning to her oldest and lifting Mikhail's face up. She turned him so he could see his brother and kisses Mikhail's cheek.

"Catheous, you were impressed with Mikhail's skills weren't you?" she said, turned her head to look at Catheous, hoping he would figure out what she was getting at.

Catheous smiled and bent forward to tickle his little brother on the side, making him squirm and forget his mistake.

"I was very impressed Mik! But you shouldn't do dangerous stuff like that unless we say so...mother was very worried about you and so was I." Catheous said as he took Mikhail into his arms and hugged him.

Catheous pulled him back a little then smiled, "Your nurse is coming and she looks mad...you better run and hug her to make her forgive you." Catheous set his little brother down and ruffled his hair.

Mikhail looked up at his older brother and grinned happily before running off to hug and apologize to his nurse.

Everyone chuckled and looked at Aslein as she heaved an exacerbated sigh and shook her head. Catheous smiled and looked at his father and saw the way his father smiled at him.

"Father...I'm starting to suspect your remembering something I did at his age." Catheous said then groaned as Toren smiled even bigger.

"Yeah," Toren laughed, "You did the same thing except without all the loving attention of your mother to make you feel better." Toren said before patting his son on the shoulder.

Aslein turned and glared at Catheous waiting for him to say something stupid and Catheous grinned sheepishly before rubbing his neck in embarrassment.

"Umm...hehe...guess all of us kids are good at scarring the daylights out of our parents eh?" he said as he looked at his mother, hoping to not get yelled at.

Aslein rolled her eyes and turned back to Acer to see him grinning. She huffed and sat down on a bench, her wings shimmering in the morning light. Everyone either sat down or stood next to Aslein as they waited for the master guard to begin his instructions for the day.

Toren walked back to his weapons and picked them up. He turned back to look at Aslein one last time before going to change. He smiled as he watched her turn and look in his direction, instinctively knowing that she knew he had been watching her. She glared at him and he let his gaze look over her.

He moved his eyes back up to her face and mouthed silently, "You're mine," before turning his back to her and taking off his shirt and walking over the well and dumping water on his head.

Aslein half listened to Acer as he spoke of what he wanted to work on. Her eyes were feasting on Toren's naked back and side as he dumped water on his head then tilted his head back to drink from the cup. She watched transfixed as she completely forgot everyone around her and watched one rivulet of water run down the side of his back. She almost felt as if her finger was the water and it was her hand on his back. She smiled as he shivered slightly and turned to look at her, the wicked knowing smile on his face. She blushed and glared at him.

"Aslein! Pay attention!" Acer yelled at her.

Aslein turned and stopped watching Toren, knowing she'd been caught looking. She turned bright red and listened tentatively to Acer as he outlined what most would be doing.

"The final part of this exercise program will be flying five miles through the forest and an obstacle course. This is to ensure agility and reflexes. If any of you have a problem with this...leave now." Acer said as he watched all the women.

Aslein smiled at Acer before asking, "And if we refuse to do the obstacle course at the end?"

Acer smiled mischievously back at Aslein, "You have no choice. I'll make you fly the obstacle course, even if I have to bodily pick you up and throw you into it."

Aslein made a face at Acer and everyone around laughed.

"Mother, I'll do the course before you and you'll see how easy it is. A non-flyer cannot create a course that we flyers can't do." Catheous said, a smug smile on his face.

Acer turned to grin at Catheous and dissipated in front of them all then came up behind Catheous. Catheous whirled and Acer ducked before getting hit with a closed fist. Both grinned before stepping back from each other and Acer bowed.

"Well, your father has taught you well to sense magical energy all around you. But never again think I don't know how to fly. I am a Shadow One. We may not fly like angels but we understand the basis of flying and the theories behind wing movements." Acer said as he stepped back to look at everyone.

"Today is basic stretching and warming up. I only want to see what everyone is capable of, nothing more. Aslein why don't you just stretch your wings mainly for today." He said as he clapped his hands together and waited for everyone to spread out.

Aslein stood up and moved next to Acer, watching him as he indicated that Catheous could help with some of the others with showing them the stretches then looked Aslein in the eyes.

"Aslein, I want you to stretch your wings out as far as you can then bring them in tight to your body. I want you to repeat this motion about twenty times then I want you to do that in an upward motion." He said as he moved back to give Aslein room while stretched.

Aslein sighed and stretched her wings out to the side, the muscles tight from lack of use and pulled them in. She repeated this motion realizing that her wings ached just from these small exercises. She cringed when she changed direction and lifted them up in the air. She cried out as a muscle along her shoulder spasmed from the change in direction and waved her ladies hands away when they all jumped to help her.

"No, I'm fine." She said as she grimaced and stretched her wings up again, working the muscles through the pain.

They exercised for a half an hour before Acer called for the end of the lesson. He looked over everyone and smiled as he saw that most were in good form. All the flyers had no problem and would easily take to the lessons. He decided that everyone could use a day of rest before the next lesson and also that Aslein would be busy tomorrow.

"Alright everyone, we'll practice again in two days same time and I want everyone to bring their weapons this time. I need to know what sort of skills you all have besides flying." Acer said as he handed Aslein a towel to wipe off her face.

Aslein sighed and wiped at her face and neck, trying not to feel so out of shape. She might not have been running for her life for the past five years but she shouldn't have been this out of shape. She whimpered when she stretched her arms above her head to relieve some of the tension from her shoulders. Catheous looked at his mother and felt sorry that he hadn't been helping her. He knew that she barely used her wings and he should have insisted she go flying with him more often when he was home.

"Mother, would you like me to rub your shoulders?" Catheous asked; concern in his voice as he watched his mother rub her shoulders.

Aslein smiled and looked at her son, "No sweetie, I'll be fine. I just need to let my wings get relax the rest of the day."

"Actually you should stretch your wings later so they don't cramp on you Aslein." Said a voice from behind Aslein.

Aslein turned and saw Toren walking up, her youngest son in his arms as he stopped behind her. Toren set the little boy down and ruffled his hair and smiled.

Aslein looked at Mikhail and grinned as she knew Toren was now wrapped around his little finger just like everyone else was.

"Hi sweetie, what are you and Toren up to?" she asked, wondering why Toren had Mikhail with him.

"The little guy was going to come and practice with you. He said he needed exercise too to be like his big brother." Toren said as he got down on his haunches and looked Mikhail in the eyes.

"Yeah! I wanna fly just like Theo one day mommy!!" Mikhail said as he ran forward and hugged his mom.

Aslein hugged Mikhail and picked him up into her lap, sitting him down and pressing little kisses to his cheeks. Mikhail laughed in glee.

"Mommy!! Stop!! Ima big boy!" he said in between laughing.

Aslein laughed and kissed him on the forehead before setting him down on the ground and pulling his shirt down.

"Well I'm glad you want to be like Theo, but that's a long way off sweetie. You still have to grow a lot. And your still a little boy and little boys should be doing their numbers and letters." She said as she cupped his cheek and looked him in the eyes.

"But I was done. And Tooren said I could go wit him to see you." Said Mikhail; a little pout on his face.

Aslein grinned and patted Mikhail's head before looking at her oldest, "Theo, why don't you take Mikhail and go play for a while. I need to go do paperwork and I'm sure Toren and I need to talk some more."

Mikhail grinned hugely and ran to Catheous, tugging his pants and pulling on his wings, "Come on! Lets go play with the kitties!!"

Catheous laughed and picked Mikhail up and tossed him in the air before catching him and running down the yard to the stables. Everyone smiled or laughed as they heard Mikhail talk about the cats in the stables and their names.

Aslein turned to look back at Toren and stood up. She moved past him and headed towards the castle but she stopped and looked back and saw all her ladies following.

"Toren, are you coming with me? I sure you can wait for me in the antechamber while I change then we can talk. Ladies, I won't need any of you, the rest of the day is yours to do with as you please. Well Toren?" She said; her face a mask of neutrality as she waited for Toren.

Toren looked at Aslein and wondered what she was getting at with her invitation but he followed behind her. He fell into step with her and watched her wings shift and sway as she walked. He saw people bow or curtsy to Aslein as she walked past them and her head nod at each one or group, but she never stopped to talk. As they reached the stairs heading to her room he brushed against her wings and watched as she flinched slightly.

"Aslein...would you like a wing massage? It might make them less sore and it would help you relax more." He offered; his voice quiet as moved up to stand beside her.

Aslein turned and smiled slightly before nodding and continuing up to her room with Toren right behind her. She walked straight back to her room and into her closet to strip down and grab a towel to wrap around her body before going and sitting on her bed.

Toren smiled and went to her, caressing her cheek, "Lay down on your stomach in the middle of the bed." His words were soft as stepped back and waited for her to lie down.

He turned his back and took off his shirt, knowing it would make it easier to move while he massaged her wings and back. He turned back and got on the bed, watching as she grabbed a pillow and laid her head upon it. As he kneeled by her side, he looked closely at her shoulders, noting how tense they seemed and started to massage those first. His hands were light but firm across her skin. He wanted to lean down and kiss her soft skin as he had done so long ago but resisted, feeling that he should let her make the first move.

Aslein closed her eyes and winced every once in a while as Toren's hands worked over her sore and tight muscles. When his hands started down the scales she almost cried out at how sore they were.

"Your scales are so soft...like the your skin." He said quietly his hands continuing to massage her slowly.

"I know...I wonder if maybe I won't ever have hard scales not having actually dragon's blood in my veins." She said; her speech slowing like she could fall asleep.

Toren smiled and bent down, brushing his lips lightly across her skin and watching her shiver. He knew it then that she was his again; her responses were becoming even stronger with the slightest touch he gave her. That was when he decided that no matter what, he would seduce her with the massage and take her. Toren bent his head back down as he ran a finger down her spine, drawing the towel down with it.

Aslein gasped but didn't want anything to stop him touching her. She felt a growing need for him and wondered why she had even bothered to leave him so long ago.

Toren growled lightly against her shoulder, his hands light as he caressed and stroked her back and wings, allowing himself to enjoy her small sounds. He moved his body and spread her legs apart, nestling his still clothed body between her legs and pulling her into a kneeling position slowly. He gently moved his hands down her wings, the light pressure telling her to fold them and he lifted her hair off her neck and kissed one of her most sensitive spots. He nipped lightly as she shuddered at his touch and then leaned into him.

"Toren..." she whispered, a hand reaching back to caress his face.

"Aslein...tell me you want me inside you. Tell me you want me to make love to you as we both long to do." His words whispered against her shoulder and throat, sending chills throughout her body.

She turned her head slightly, her eyes dark as a stormy sea, her passions nearly beyond their breaking point. She moved then and leaned forward to kiss him lightly and slowly, giving him her answer in the kiss. Her hand ran down his chest, slowly moving down his stomach and abs before stopping at the top of his pants and smiling.

Toren nearly lost control at her touch, but when her hand rested on the top of his pants he almost groaned as he waited for her to push them down. His hands reached out and tugged the towel from her and he drank in the sight of her luscious body. He hardened more as he saw that she was even more beautiful than he remembered; her skin creamy and soft. He looked at her face then grinned before moving forward slowly and pressing her back onto the bed.

Aslein laid down, careful of her sore wings, her body screaming out for release and her mind on the man before her. He hadn't really changed that much, but she knew that no one stayed the same. His rough, callused palm on her stomach her tremble as he slowly ran his hand down, caressing her hips before bending down to lick one hip. His hand continued on down, lightly scratching her inner thigh before softly running a single finger over her clit. She arched her back and moaned, wanting more but knowing he would only give into her pleas when he had his fill.

Toren smiled as he brushed his lips slowly across to her other hip; nipping slightly and eliciting a gasp from her before he spread her legs apart and let his finger caress her clit. He kissed the top of her mons, smelling her scent and growled, knowing she would scream out his name before too long. He bent further down and blew his warm breath across her, watching her squirm.

Aslein whimpered and moaned at his teasing touch, her body crying out for release. As he blew across her moistened area she nearly jumped but instead she reached down and threaded her fingers in his dark hair, her body shaking from her pent up energy.

Toren looked up and smiled then bent his head back down and licked her clit slowly, listening to her moans as he sucked gently upon her clit. He lightly traced his finger over her opening and grinned devilishly as her fingers tightened in his hair. He licked up her clit as he thrust one finger inside her then slowly pulled it back out and thrust back in. He watched her face as he toyed with, her tongue licking her lips as she moaned. He groaned at the sight and moved back up her body to kiss her as he inserted two fingers into her and watched her eyes widen then close as she arched her back into him.

Aslein cried out as he thrust two fingers into her and pulled his head closer as he kissed her, her tongue dueled with his in time to his thrusts and she felt herself reaching her peak. She whimpered as he pulled his fingers out and leaned back, nibbling her lip. Her fingers left his hair and slowly trailed down the back of his neck.

Toren shivered at her touch before pulling away. He placed the fingers he'd had inside her on her lips and moaned loudly as she took them and sucked on them; her tongue licking across them in her mouth. He growled and took his fingers back then slide off the bed as he removed his pants. He got back on the bed but chose to look down at her. The sight she of her laying on her back, her wings underneath her, and her body flushed and trembling made him wish he could see it forever. He moved over her then bent down to kiss her before wrapping his arms around her waist and licking her ear.

"Aslein...tell me you want this...tell me you want me inside you. No kisses this time, I want to hear you say it in your own words." He whispered seductively into her ear as he laid himself between her legs and caressed her wet clit with his cock.

Aslein moaned loudly at the feel of him and shuddered, her hands upon his shoulders stilling as he whispered to her. Her breath hitched as she realized he wouldn't take her without her speaking and she wanted to cry because she wasn't sure she could say it. Then she stopped thinking used his cock as he had his finger and rubbed back and forth over her clit, making her moan and whimper at the torture. He did this a few times before she finally cried out and mumbled that she wanted him.

Toren heard the words but he stopped and pulled back, his eyes starring down at hers, "I didn't hear you too clearly Aslein...say it." His voice was dark and husky as he waited.

"Just take me Toren! Please!!" she cried out to him as she felt cool air upon her skin.

"Say it." He growled as he shifted and positioned himself at her opening.

"Toren!" she pleaded with him; her nails digging into his skin.

"Say it!" he ground out as one of his hands took her breast and caressed it.

Aslein moaned loudly and arched her back, thrusting her breast into his hand. Her body trembled, "Please!! Take me now!" she cried out.

Toren grinned in satisfaction as he thrust into her, feeling how tight she was, almost as if she was a virgin again. He groaned loudly as her nails dragged down his back as he slowly thrust in and out of her, her body responding to his hands as she moved against him.

Aslein completely forgot everything as Toren took her, her desire close to exploding as he took her fast and hard. She moaned louder and louder as she reached closer to orgasm, her hands holding onto his back as he moaned and thrust faster into her. She nearly screamed as she orgasmed, her whole body tightening and shaking from the force of it.

Toren threw his head back and groaned in ecstasy as he felt Aslein convulse around him then thrust into her two more times before finding his own release. He shuddered as he laid his head against her shoulder and breathed as he spilled his seed into her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and rolled onto his back, keeping himself inside her as he laid her on top of him and kissed the top of her head. He caressed her back, careful to not jar her wings as he snuggled her.

Aslein sighed happily then sat up and starred Toren in fright, "Toren...you didn't..."she stammered.

Toren nodded and looked at her. "No I didn't. But if you do become pregnant, I swear I won't leave you ever." A single finger caressed her cheek soothingly, hoping she'd understand why he had done that.

Aslein sat up and wiggled off him to lay by his side and run a hand slowly over his chest. She looked up at him, slightly upset but feeling as if the world was alright again. She snuggled down next to him and slept for a while until his hand caressed her waist.

Toren sat up and picked up Aslein, taking her into her private bath to wash her and soothe her sore muscles. But he had another agenda as he stepped into the large tub.
