As she was about to stand, she heard a soft knock at the door. Standing, she faced it.

"Come," she called. Expecting Charles to be checking in for the night, she sipped from her goblet.

The door opened and Fallon saw the flutter of soft, white material, then a bare foot, and finally the entire body of Sarah. The blonde stood in a flowing gown, her hair brushed to a shine around her shoulders and back.

"Milady?" the warrior said, suddenly concerned. Sarah said nothing, just gently shut the door behind her and leaned against it.

"My lord," she said softly.

Confused, Fallon put her goblet down on a table. "Are you alright, Sarah? Do you need something?"

"Yes." Sarah pushed away from the door and walked halfway across the room, her eyes never leaving the warrior’s. Fallon’s heart skipped a beat, wanting and uncertainty plaguing her.

Sarah stopped and extended her hand, waiting for it to be taken. Fallon placed her much larger one in it, waiting. Blue met green, and a silent conversation was played out. Fallon swallowed, hard.

"Fallon?" Sarah whispered, looking up into the brunette’s face.

"Yes?" Fallon whispered back, her knees feeling like jelly.

"Make love to me, my husband." She leaned up and placed a very soft kiss upon Fallon’s trembling lips. Fallon moved to speak, but Sarah placed her fingers over the soft lips. "Do not speak. You make me feel happy, safe, wanted and loved," she explained. "To the world you are Fallon of Aragon, Lord of Camden Castle. To me you are Fallon, the man I married and the woman I love."

A long sigh of relief fell from Fallon’s lips and she gathered the smaller woman into her arms, holding her close, needing to know this was real.

"Oh, Sarah," she breathed. "You are all those things, my love," she said into the golden hair, then brought her fingers up under Sarah’s chin, raising her face to meet her own. She met the loving gaze and returned it. "Are you sure about this?"

"Yes. I came to realize that like you, no one had ever made me feel these things. I’d be a fool to let you go."

Fallon leaned in, brushing her lips lightly against Sarah’s, causing a wave of delight to pass through them both. The kiss deepened, each slowly caressing the other with lips, tongue and teeth.

Sarah released a soft moan, her arms wrapping around Fallon’s waist, fingers grasping the material of her shirt, craving the heat that lay just beneath.

"I wish to see you, Fallon," Sarah murmured against the warrior’s lips. Fallon nodded, pulling away and taking Sarah by the hand. Together they walked toward her bedchamber where Sarah was gently nudged to sit on the edge of the bed. Fallon stood before her. She was nervous, but she saw only love and desire reflected back in those green eyes.

Bringing her hands up, she pulled the laces to her shirt and leather pants. She tugged the shirt until it came free from the breeches, then pulled if over her head. Sarah watched wide-eyed, hungry. She saw the expanse of Fallon’s muscled stomach, the skin looking so soft and smooth. Her fingers itched to touch it.

Fallon reached behind her and released the strip of material that kept her breasts bound. The swath began to loosen and she pulled it off, unwinding it from around her torso. She sighed with relief once she was released. Wide green eyes took in the full breasts, the skin slightly red from the material chaffing them.

"Ohhh," she breathed. She thought Fallon must be just about the most beautiful thing in the world.

The warrior began to take her boots off, but was stopped by a soft hand on her arm.

"Let me." Sarah knelt down, putting Fallon’s foot on her knee. She pulled and the leather came loose, falling to the ground, followed by its mate. Sarah stood, running her hands up the sides of Fallon’s thighs and side as she did. When her fingers came into contact with the unbelievably soft skin of the brunette’s sides, she whimpered. Her eyes were riveted by the swell of her breasts. So round and perfect. "Beautiful," she sighed.

Fallon watched, nearly holding her breath, as the blonde leaned down, placing a soft kiss at the juncture of her shoulder and neck. She felt so vulnerable standing there in a way that no one had ever seen her before. Eyes closing, she relished the feel of Sarah’s lips and tongue on her skin.

Sarah brought a hand up, fingers running just along the underside of a beautifully rounded breast. "So soft," she murmured, her lips making a trail along Fallon’s collar bone.

Fallon brought her hands to Sarah’s gown, gathering the material up with her fingers, gradually exposing Sarah’s body. She nearly lost control when she realized the blonde was completely naked underneath it.

Sarah raised her arms so the gown could be lifted over her head. Shaking her long hair free, she returned her attention back to Fallon’s body. The warrior closed her eyes as she felt hot breath nearing her right nipple, gentle fingers running along the underside of the breast. Her hands roamed over Sarah’s bare shoulders and neck, then down her arms and back up again.

Soft kisses turned to wet licks, and Fallon gasped when a shot of pleasure started at her suckled nipple all the way down to her core. She buried her fingers into the thick blonde hair as she listened to the contented moaning as Sarah licked and teased her. As her mouth worked, Sarah’s hands moved down to the leather pants, bringing her hands just inside and pushing, the tight pants making slow progress down the long, gorgeous thighs.

Fallon stepped out of the pants, leaving her totally naked. The blonde relinquished the nipple and looked at what was exposed. She saw the patch of dark hair, so much like her own, save for color. Curious, she reached down, using her palm to gently run over the wiry hairs, nearly tickling her palm.

The warrior’s heart rate began to do double time.

"I can’t stand, Sarah," she panted. Sarah took her by the hand and brought them the few steps to the high canopy. She climbed on, and tugged for Fallon to follow. Once on, Fallon gently pushed Sarah back, laying her body on top of hers. Both moaned in unison as their full bodies touched for the first time. The feeling of skin on skin was amazing, and nearly the undoing of them both.

Fallon immediately found Sarah’s mouth, kissing her with every bit of passion for the smaller woman she had. The blonde was left breathless as she reached her hands down to scour the warrior’s back, nails grazing across the smooth surface. She had never felt anything nearly this wonderful.

There had been a time when she’d wondered just how two women made love since they seemed to be missing a certain part of the anatomy. But now, now she wasn’t so worried.

She pushed Fallon onto her back and straddled the long, lean body beneath her. Looking down into the darkened blue eyes, Sarah felt a pulse start at her core and work its way out. Fallon reached up, cupping Sarah’s breasts in needy hands. The blonde moaned, eyes closing as she arched her head back in pleasure. She felt her most sensitive area come to life as it rested against Fallon’s stomach. Moving slightly, she realized that it felt wonderful.

Fallon sat up, bringing her mouth to where her hands played. She took one of Sarah’s nipples into her mouth, licking the hard nub until she heard Sarah’s breathing turn to panting. Sarah’s hips had begun to rock, and the warrior could feel the wetness being spread across her stomach. Lying down again, she continued the torture with her hands, but hardened the muscles in her stomach to give the blonde even more purchase.

Sarah moaned loudly, eyes closing as a jolt of pleasure shot through her. She felt hands on her hips, guiding her to begin rocking, and she did. She put her hands on Fallon’s shoulders for balance, and rubbed herself against the brunette’s skin.

The movements became more needy, desperate even. Fallon was panting right along with Sarah as she saw the waves of pleasure wash over the beautiful woman’s face. Sarah cried out, her body jerking as she released.

Fallon was amazed. She had never seen the blonde so aroused before, and her scent was driving her wild. She gently pushed Sarah to the bed and captured her lips again. Sarah was too happy to oblige.

They were a tumble of legs and arms as they rolled over, Sarah on top again. She kissed Fallon with everything she had. She reached her hand down the smooth surface of the heated skin, feeling the warrior’s dark hair between her legs. She combed her fingers through it, making Fallon’s breathing hitch.

"I want to make you feel as good as you make me," she whispered into the brunette’s mouth.

Her fingers slipped into the wet silkiness of Fallon’s sex. She was absolutely saturated, and so ready. Sarah felt the hard nub that she had come to realize was where a woman’s pleasure was hidden. Fallon cried out as her clit was stroked, her fingers balling the sheet into her fist.

Sarah roamed over Fallon’s body with her mouth, finding every little sensitive area, tasting the heated skin. Her fingers ran through the slick folds, gathering so much moisture as they went. She felt Fallon’s hips moving with her, trying to find release. The blonde found her way to a breast again, licking and suckling as her fingers continued to explore.

"Please," Fallon whimpered, desperate for Sarah’s touch. Sarah’s fingers returned to the hard nub, and began to rub in quick circles, trying to listen to Fallon’s body to see what she needed. Fallon cried out, her body arching off the bed as her desire rushed out to coat Sarah’s fingers.

Sarah held the warrior close as she tried to get herself under control. The orgasm had hit her with such unbelievable force, she felt as though she’d shudder to pieces. Sarah cooed encouraging words to the trembling woman. Once she was under control again, Sarah looked into her eyes.
