> Part 1 - Long Ago <

       The full moon cast its bright, silver glow across the landscape and a brilliant reflection in the lake, marred only by the ripples of two young people swimming.
       Serenity and Endymion, both naked, swam slowly, their attention focused on each other. They moved closer and he kissed her cheek. As she kissed him in return, a grin formed on her lips and she placed her hands on his shoulders, pushing him under. He immediately grabbed her waist and pulled her down with him. They broke the surface, each gasping for air. She splashed water at him with her hand, then swam away.
       "So, somebody wants to play," he said, swimming after her.
       As he overtook her, she resumed splashing him. He moved steadily closer, finally taking her in his embrace and kissing her deeply. She relaxed in his arms, her passion matching his own.
       They walked up on shore and began slowly drying each other off, in between deep, wet kisses.
       "Oh, Endymion," she sighed, her voice full of passionate longing.
       "Yes, my love," he answered.
       They soon snuggled together on the blanket, naked and still slightly damp. The night was comfortably warm, and the fire burning several feet away was more for ambiance than anything else.
       Endymion looked into the large blue eyes of this beautiful young woman who was now his fiancee. Leaning closer, he slid a hand through her long golden hair, and pressed his lips to hers.
       Serenity opened her mouth to receive his probing tongue, softly caressing it with her own, while embracing him tightly in her arms. Never had she been so happy.
       The last few days had been like a dream. She and Endymion had consummated their love in a night of exquisite passion, and later he had asked her to marry him. Soon enough, they would have to return to their official duties, but now there was just the two of them.
       "Oh, Serenity," he whispered, feeling the passion swelling within him.
       "My prince," she sighed in response.
       "You make me so happy, my love," he said.
       "As happy as you make me, my dearest."
       As he lay back, she rested her head on his shoulder. Her fingertips gently traced his nipple, then slid down across his abdomen. She came to his penis, feeling it harden under her caress.
       "Oh, my love," he gasped.
       "I see I have your attention now," she giggled.
       "You always have my attention," he said. "Would you like to go inside?"
       "No. It's such a lovely night, my prince."
       She pressed her lips to one of his nipples, sucking at it. As he moaned in response, his fingers swept through her hair.
       "You're so lovely," he whispered.
       Her tongue swept over his nipple. She then slid across and kissed the other one, playfully nipping it with her teeth.
       He lay there, thoroughly enjoying the ministrations of his beautiful young princess, again overwhelmed at how the fates had smiled on him.
       Serenity moved down over his abdomen, softly kissing him as she went. Reaching his hard, erect manhood, she kissed the tip, then slid down and gently sucked at one of his testicles. His groan excited her still more, increasing the spreading warmth within her. She licked up along the full length of his member, reaching the tip to find fluid already emerging. Eagerly licking it up, she then took him deep into her mouth, licking and sucking him intently.
       Endymion felt ready to burst as his manhood was enveloped in the warm, silky moistness of her mouth. His hands swept lovingly over her head and shoulders.
       "Oh, Serenity... Oh, yes!" he gasped.
       As her tongue swept over him, she could feel his member throbbing. She pulled back and lightly kissed the tip, then licked down over the full length. After brushing her tongue over his sac, she kissed the insides of his thighs. Looking back up, she saw his hardness, glistening wet, beckoning to her. She kissed the tip once more, then hungrily took him back into her mouth.
       "Oh, yes... Yes!" he groaned.
       Once more she pulled away from his manhood, playfully kissing his abdomen. As he moaned in frustration, he felt the soft sweep of her hair across his legs, touching his flesh like purest silk and sending electric charges through his nerves. Those were quickly overwhelmed as she again took his member in her mouth. His awareness closed down to that one connection as his muscles began to spasm. She pulled back just as he hit his climax.
       "Serenity," he whispered.
       She moved up alongside him and softly kissed his lips.
       "Here I am, my dearest," she said.
       He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her deeply, his tongue sliding between her lips. Suddenly rolling them both over, he moved down and pressed his lips to one of her nipples. As his tongue swept over the aroused bud, she moaned with pleasure.
       Her hands swept over his back while pleasure washed through her.
       "Oh, gods! I love you so much!" she exclaimed.
       "And I love you," he replied softly, before switching to the other breast.
       Very slowly he brushed his tongue around her nipple, before finally closing his lips over it and sucking. She gave a soft moan. His fingers found the other breast, softly squeezing and caressing it.
       The increasing warm wetness within her made her need him elsewhere. Her hands pressed on his shoulders as she tried to move him.
       Sensing her need, he planted several soft kisses over her abdomen while sliding a hand up between her legs.
       "Oh yes, my prince," she whispered.
       His fingers traced over her nether lips, feeling her honey dripping out of her. Spreading her legs apart, he began softly licking the surface of her soft folds.
       "Please, Endymion. Oh, please!" she gasped.
       Just then, she could feel his tongue slide into her, as he drank in more of her honey. He stroked the insides of her opening, but carefully avoided the one spot where she most wanted his attention. Her body squirmed with increasing longing and passion.
       He drew his tongue back and kissed her nether lips. The aroma of her arousal flooded his senses, increasing his own need. He slid his tongue back into her.
       "Oh, yes!" she cried as his tongue brushed her jewel, setting her nerves on fire with ecstasy.
       He repeated the move, feeling the pleasure within her. Stroking his tongue deep within her, he tasted more of her sweet honey as she gasped again and again.
       Her fingers ran through his dark hair as she tried to press him still deeper. His tongue rubbed over her jewel once more, overwhelming her with almost painfully intense pleasure.
       Feeling her being swept ever higher into realms of pleasure, he continued to caress her jewel. His tongue swept deep to lick up more honey, then stroked her pleasure point in a long, slow motion. As he did so, he gently sucked.
       "Ennndymmmionnn!" she cried as she soared into orgasm.
       He eagerly drank in her honey, then, after taking a breath, began slowly licking her clean. As he did so, an idea formed in his mind. He slipped his tongue back deep inside her, drawing it down and stroking her jewel.
       She gasped as she felt him, her body quickly swept upward once more with pleasure, completely at the mercy of his hungrily probing tongue.
       Pulling back, he slowly stroked the sides of her opening, hearing her frustrated groans. As her hands swept anxiously over the back of his head, he slipped his tongue back into her and caressed her jewel repeatedly.
       "Oh, yes!... Yes, my prince!... Gods!... Oh, yes!" she cried.
       He loved her taste, and loved being able to pleasure her this way. Knowing she was fast approaching the brink, he devoted his attention to her jewel, her cries growing more intense and more breathless. Suddenly, with a loud, wordless cry, she reached her climax. This time, as she struggled for breath, he very gently licked around her opening, then slid up beside her.
       "Serenity, my love," he whispered, kissing her lips.
       "Oh, my dearest. I love you so much," she said softly.
       They snuggled together, kissing softly as the moon shone brightly down on them.
       She held him close, enjoying the warmth of his body, the touch of his lips, the feel of his beating heart, and the pressure of his aroused manhood. Her own heart was beating fast as she pressed against the body of the man she loved, molding together so perfectly.
       He sighed happily as his heart swelled still more with the love he felt for her, and the knowledge that they would be together for the rest of their lives.
       She rolled him on his back and moved astride him, bending down to kiss his nipples. His hands slid up along her sides and over her back. Her longing growing ever stronger, she moved herself back, feeling his tip on her nether lips. His soft groan told her he felt it too. She braced her hands, and they moved as one.
       "Oh yes, my prince!" she cried in purest joy as she impaled herself on his manhood and they became one.
       "Serenity!" he gasped, his hands stroking along her arms as he felt himself deep within the warm, loving embrace of her womanhood.
       Her nerves were on fire as they fell into an exquisitely slow, sensual rhythm. His member, molded just perfectly for her, was stroking her nerves with warmth with every movement. His hands were playing with her breasts, adding to the incredible warmth and pleasure already filling her body.
       As he thrust up with their next motion, he felt her inner muscles squeeze on his member, beautifully stimulating him and leaving him gasping with delight. Looking up at her, he saw her large blue eyes aglow with love, while the crescent moon on her forehead seemed to be glowing brightly. Framed by the moonlight, and lit from within by love and passion, she seemed to him more beautiful than ever.
       Serenity leaned down and kissed him, feeling his tongue dancing with her own, and his arms embracing her tightly. She sighed happily, then kissed him once more.
       "Oh, yes!" she gasped, as their next motion swept through them.
       He swept his fingers through her hair, enjoying its feel, then drew his hand back up along her back. She sat up following their next thrust, and he brought his hands back to her breasts, squeezing the nipples with his fingertips.
       She slid a hand up along his chest, running her fingers over his nipple. Their bodies thrust together, shifting his throbbing member inside her as her own muscles squeezed on it.
       Moving his hands around to her back, he arched up and pressed his lips to her breast, suckling intently at her nipple. Her hands pressed into the back of his head as she gasped his name repeatedly. As their bodies continued to move as one, he shifted to her other breast, stroking the nipple over and over with his tongue, then pressing it in his lips.
       She clung to him tightly, the fires growing ever more intense within her. The next thrust brought a passionate cry from her as she approached the brink. He sucked at her breast, increasing her pleasure, just as their bodies moved once more. She cried his name as her body locked up in a massive orgasm, flooding her with intense ecstasy.
       Endymion struggled to hold himself back as her inner muscles clamped down on him hard. Taking a slow, deep breath, he lay back on the blanket, drawing her down on top of him. He ran a hand up along her back and kissed her deeply.
       Sighing happily, she slipped her tongue into his mouth, reveling in his warmth around and inside her. In his eyes, she could see a love that matched her own.
       They resumed their slow rhythm, their bodies moving together, shifting his member within her. Their lips pressed together, and their tongues continued their passionate dance.
       "Oh, yes!" she cried as the next thrust swept through her.
       She sat back up astride him as the fire swelled within her and their pace grew faster. His hands swept over her breasts as she pumped and gyrated above him.
       "Serenity," he gasped.
       She looked back down at him, breathless with passion and delight as his throbbing member within her swept her ever higher. Bending down, she kissed his nipples, while her hair spread over them both. As his hands caressed her, she reached up and pressed her lips to his.
       As her lips pressed to his and her hair covered them both, he held her tightly in his embrace, inhaling her soft scent and feeling her body drawing him deep into her womanhood. With their next thrust her muscles squeezed tightly, leaving him gasping with pleasure.
       She sat back up as their pace grew still faster.
       "Oh, my prince... Oh, yes... Yes!... Oh, gods... Please... Oh, yes... Oh, yes!... Oh, yes!... Ennndymmionnn!"
       Just as she soared into orgasm, his body spasmed sharply in climax, pouring his seed deep into her. Tremors continued to shake them as the last bits of pleasure were wrung from each of them. Finally, she lay down on top of him, deliciously spent, and enjoying the feel of his warmth spreading within her. He folded her in his arms, holding her close and feeling her heartbeat.
       "Oh, Serenity," he whispered. "You are so beautiful, and I love you so much."
       She sighed happily, snuggling her head against his chest.
       They soon felt the night air growing cooler. Slipping her off of him, he wrapped a part of the blanket over them both and snuggled alongside her.
       "This is so wonderful," she said quietly. "Being together, just the two of us."
       "I quite agree, my love. This is the way it should always be," he said.
       As she lay beside him, she glanced up at the moon shining brightly in the sky.
       "Now I understand what Earth poets say about the moon and lovers," she whispered. "It truly is a lovely sight, made to be enjoyed by the two of us."
       "We're made for each other," he told her.
       "Most definitely, my dearest."
       "But it is getting cooler, my love. And we should be getting inside," he said.
       "Oh, alright," she sighed.
       He poured some water over the fire and made sure it was out, then picked up their blanket. Hand-in-hand, they walked back along the shore to the house by the lake.
       "Endymion, are you looking forward to one day being a king?" she asked.
       "What do you mean?" he asked. "My father's not really that old. He's talked about abdicating when he gets to the point where he's no longer up to the job, but even so, I expect him to remain on the throne for quite some time yet."
       "I know, and I still probably have quite a few years before my mother steps aside, but the thought still scares me a little," she said.
       He slipped his hand from hers and embraced her.
       "I understand, my love," he said. "But you still have a lot of time yet to learn that you will need to know to become queen. And your mother will make sure that you've learned it before she steps aside."
       "And how will it effect us? Being rulers of two different kingdoms?"
       "We'll be married, my love. That will be the important thing. Everything else will work out," he said.
       "Hmmm. Just hearing you say that makes me feel so much better," she sighed.
       They entered the house and walked into one of the bedrooms. Climbing into bed, they quickly snuggled together, her body draped partly over his and her head on his chest. He wrapped an arm over her.
       "I'll be glad when we are married, my dearest," she said softly. "Because then I can fall asleep like this every night, and wake up in your arms every morning."
       "That will certainly be nice, my love," he agreed.
       "What do you think the future holds?" she asked, already drifting toward sleep.
       "I don't know, except that whatever happens, we'll be together."
