ROLEPLAY HQ - queen-of-the-wolves

The sounds of the crowed surrounding Mathis was almost completely drowned out beating of his own heart. Moments like this are what he lived for. Here in this hastily made area with his beast kin wolf descents called the Estrella pack making up one half of the circle and the elves comprised of the other. The elves stood there with a regal demeanor, while the beast kin howled in excitement. In the year since Mathis has killed this predecessor and earned the role of Prime of pack, he has expanded the Estrella territory by double. That is the reason today the elves have made such a foolish gambit. They hope to slow or pace by challenging the beast kin to a duel. As Prime, he will fight himself. The elves wish to enslave the Estrella if they win and meet my demand if they lose. Mathis stares at the elf they placed him against such tiny creatures. Mathis standing just over 7 feet tall towered over the elf. Although the elf was smaller they were known to posses strong magic. As Mathis stood on his side he could feel the bloodlust reaching him. His normally brown eyes began to glow icy blue with the same glint as his wolf ancestors. The elf across from him in full plate mail. The air grew stiff as the time drew near. Mathis stood and so did the elf.

5:36 PM

The "arena" comprised of half beast kin and half elves was approximately 25ft large. This put the elf at a severe disadvantage. The horn signaling the start was blew and the wolves howled along with it. The elf took one step forward and raised his sword and it began to glow with an enchantment. Mathis didn't know what enchantment it was but it didn't matter the elf lost the movement he chose a close range tactic. The elf ran at him and lunged the sword towards Mathis stomach. Mathis grabbed the elf by the arm and shattered it with hardly a squeeze crushing mail and all. The elf let out a scream of pure pain as he was off his feet. Mathis slammed him to the ground repeatedly like a doll. Many of the elves looked away in disgust, while the wolves laughed and howled. Mathis then picked the battered elf up by the same arm the and ripped out his windpipe with is other clawed hand. awoooooooooo Mathis howled the rest of his pack following in unison. Mathis for the first time seeing a elf girl standing by the leader of the elves. With a devilish grin he dropped the dead elf and pointed to the woman.

5:36 PM

@Vava

Had Elanor known what was at stake, she'd have fought harder to avoid this pointless duel. But, would her word have even meant anything? The duel between Exzra and the King of the 'Beasts', as the elves so politely called them, was hastily agreed to by the Beast King and the Elven King. This was a duel between two strong warriors in order to prove who was 'stronger' the Beast King or the strongest fighter amongst the Elves. Exzra was undefeated in battle, and had helped the Elves win thousands of battles, so... when his arm was shattered in seconds by the Beast King, the Elves went deadly silent. They realized just how ill prepared they were, how wrong they were to believe they were undefeatable, and now... how powerless they were. Arendale, the Elf King, slumped back in his seat, his eyes wide as he watched the Beast King point at his daughter. His only daughter. He was claiming his prize, something Arendale willingly agreed to. He hadn't believed that his best warrior would lose. Exzra had taken down dragons before! How could... how could this happen? He felt his chest tighten as Elanor spoke, her voice trembling in fear, "F-Father? Why...Why is he pointing at me?" Elanor was a small woman who stood around five feet tall, and had hip length silvery white hair. Her bright blue eyes shone in sunlight. The sun was shining so brightly today. How could such a beautiful day become the darkest day of Arendale's life so quickly?

7:30 AM

"I-I...I am so sorry, my sweet one. I...Please follow the guards. They will... bring you to him." Elanor's eyes widened even more. "W-What? Why?! What's happening?" She grabbed at Arendale's arm and in a fit of anger and defeat, he threw her arm off. He stood, turning from her. How could he face her like this? "Bring her to him. She belongs to him now..." He said. "Get a mage for Exzra." Elanor desperately squirmed against the guards as they snagged her arms. "Stop! Stop it! Let me go!! Father! Father, please!!" She screamed, tears running down her cheeks. Two women from the beasts side approached. "We will take her to His Majesty. Let go." They snarled. The guards hesitantly released Elanor. One of the women, a broad woman who stood six feet tall with curly brown hair, helped Elanor stand. "Come, My Lady." She grinned, clearly not worried about showing familiarity. She took Elanor's hand and brought her down the steps to the fighting pit. Exzra was placed on a stretcher and removed, the sound of his screaming fading away as Elanor was presented in front of Mathis... "Your Majesty, your prize." The wolf women grinned, setting Elanor in front of them and backing away to join the other beast kin. @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched in with excited on the Elf King's face as it was filled with despair. Mathis sent his handmaidens to collect his prize. Other Beast kin were excited now and where trying to pick fights with some of the other elves. Mathis began to snarl and the wolves retreated. He watched as the woman's confusion turned to panic. She was brought to him and he looked down at the women she was tiny, barely making it to his stomach. Mathis couldn't help but think of how weak she looked but aesthetically she was pleasing which is why he chose her. "You are mine from this point on. Work well to keep your place in the pack. It is time to go home." The beast kin had no carriages nor did they have horses. Man of the beast kin took off running into the forest moving at natural speeds. @Vava

Pale ice blue eyes wandered up the stomach of the Beast King to his face. He was gigantic compared to her, and Elanor felt her heart slam into her chest out of panic. Blood thudded in her ears and when he opened his mouth, she ducked away. Elanor flinched as the Beast King told her that she was his from now on. Then, he informed her that it was time to go 'home.' She watched as the wolves began to run into the woods, their speed something completely unnatural! How on earth was she supposed to follow that?! Nervously, one of the guards brought over a white horse, the animal stomping its hooves as it watched the retreating forms of the beast kin. "M-My Lady... for you." Elanor gave the guard a sad smile of thanks, and then she climbed up using the stirrups. She held the reigns in her hands and she hesitantly looked over to the Beast King, who she was now only eye level with. "I-I...I do not know the way to... y-your home." She felt like her voice was paper thin and tears pricked her eyes. She had only heard rumors of the beast king, and seeing him in person terrified her. She knew that he could easily kill her, as he had demonstrated his power not even ten minutes before. What if she displeased him? Would he break her arm as well? Or...worse...? @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched as the woman was brought a horse watched the elf retreat. The woman sat on top of horse and spoke. He raised an eyebrow to her comments, "follow me to your home." The emphasis Mathis put on your was driving home she had no other options. She was a part of the pack now and it would be easier if she accepted that. Mathis turned and started running into the woods, he stuck to the main trails for the horse's sake. The rush of air always felt good to Mathis he loved being out in the woods especially running he was annoyed how he had to slow himself so that the horse could keep up. He would look back to ensure she and the horse were still behind him. They ran for some time they came to an castle etched into a mountain. Behind the castle there were hundreds of large caves that hid the houses of the other beast kin. This was home. Mathis stopped when he cleared the forest and waited for the horse to catch up. Once the horse caught up. Mathis said to the woman "This is your new kingdom, rule with strength of a wolf or die by the hands of one." Mathis said as he walked towards the castle. @Vava

Elanor followed as quick as she could. She ducked below branches and she did her best to keep up with Mathis, though he was far quicker than she imagined! It felt like hours before they finally stopped and when they arrived at the Beast Kingdom, Elanor's eyes widened even more. The castle was massive and was pressed to the side of a rocky cliff. It was a wolf's paradise, but an elf's nightmare... Elanor was used to the sight of the forest and the ocean near by. Now... all she saw was rocks and fields. She felt... sick. She dismounted the horse and she looked for a stable. A beast kin woman, the same woman from before, approached. "I'll take your horse." She said, giving the woman barely a glance before she guided the horse away to the others. The Beast Kin typically did not need horses but it was useful to have them in case they were ever needed, whether this was for transport or for food, that was to be determined. Elanor felt the air flee her lungs as Mathis told her that this was her new kingdom, and if she did not rule with the strength of a wolf... she would die by one. Her heart exploded. This was real. This was far too real... As if she was in a daze, Elanor followed Mathis. She didn't say a single word. She just let two thin streams of tears fall down her cheeks as she followed. As they two entered the castle, all eyes were on them. Beast kin stared at the new comer, an elf. Their queen was an elf... Several women glared, and several of the men eyed her like a piece of meat. One beast kin, a tall male, approached Mathis and grinned. "My Lord, you certainly picked a beautiful prize! What would you like us to do with her?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis walked confidently through his castle. Mathis stopped at the question. Awoo Mathis let out a short howl and instantly all the wolves within ear shot stopped moving looked in their direction. Mathis looked at his pack with pride they were powerful stronger than ever and now he could sense their resentment towards the queen. Good Mathis it will make them stronger he thought to himself. Mathis figured that she could be helpful in achieving full transformation. The elves were supposedly the best at magic and have been around for centuries. Mathis spoke with a voice that boomed though out the halls "I Mathis Prime, will take the wolf kin to greater heights and unlock the transformation. I will harness the magical power of the elves. This is your new queen she will herald our transformation. With the transformation we will conquer this land and all with belong to the beast kin. You will refer to her as Queen....er" Mathis leaned down at towards the tiny elf. "What are you called elf?" Mathis asked realizing he never cared to ask her name. Some of the female wolves growled in halls they were jealous. The beast kin mated for life and they knew their chances to breed with the most powerful of the beast kin was about to slip away. Once they are betrothed only her death could allow Mathis to mate with another. @Vava

Elanor flinched as Mathis howled. The silence that followed was almost deafening. She felt the eyes on her before but now they were prominent, now more than ever. Mathis announced his plan and every made felt a nail in her chest. He was going to use her to achieve some sort of transformation, and deep down, it bothered Elanor deeply. She was not tool to be used, and she had never agreed to any of this! She felt anger bubbling in her chest, but it suddenly died down as the large man turned to her and asked for her name. Trying to muster up her strength, she spoke, "My...My name is Elanor." She could feel her hands trembling, so she gripped the edge of her skirt, desperate to appear confident. She saw several of the wolves either glaring at her, or smirking. They knew she was a fraud, that she held no power over them. The only thing that would stop them was Mathis. But, if he wasn't around... One of the women stood, "How is someone like her going to help us reach our transformation? Her kind is nothing compared to us! She shouldn't be betrothed to someone as powerful and great as our King!" She shouted, clearly angry that she was no longer able to be the King's mate. Others began to nod and murmur. "She's nothing. She's just some weakling! All she is worthy of being is a fuck toy, Your Majesty." She spat, casting daggers at Elanor. Elanor flinched, her eyes looking down. These wolves were right. What did she have to offer this tribe of beasts? She hadn't even wanted to be here! But if he decided she wasn't worthy, what would happen to her? She looked up at Mathis, fear all over her face. @OriginalMeta

Mathis committed the name to memory…Eleanor. That would do just fine. He listened to the wolves their curiosity was understandable, but their disrespect was not. “The transformation has been lost to us for centuries. We once roamed the lands uncontested, striking fear in the hearts of all. Since the transformation has been lost we have searched for answers, meanwhile the elves have risen in power tapping into magics we don’t understand it’s time we claimed that for ourselves.” While Mathis was talking a female wolf, Joanna, spoke ‘she is nothing…she is worthy of being a fuck toy.’ At this comment Mathis began to snarl, baring his fanged teeth. His eyes changed from brown and flashed blue again. “IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE TO QUESTION YOUR PRIME.” Mathis snarled. “Or would you like to challenge me for the title, Joanna?” The woman began to whimpering and she shrunk down. “No” she said as she avoided eye contact. Many of the wolves began to snicker at the woman, who looked back a Elanor with distaste. “As I was saying, today marks a new era. You will show Elanor the respect as your queen, or else.” Mathis looked down at the tiny elf. “Someone will show you to our room. Tell them what things you need if any.” @Vava

Everyone, including Elanor, ducked as Mathis snarled at 'Joanna'. Several of the males smirked afterward, clearly enjoying the sight of Joanna being put in her place, but for those who were not used to it, it made them cautious. Elanor swallowed nervously as Mathis informed her that someone would show her to their room. "A-Alright... Thank you." She bowed her head, not wanting to invoke his wrath in anyway. Another female wolf appeared, a thin smaller one. She bowed her head and smiled. "Queen Elanor, please come with me." She guided Elanor to the large master bedroom of the castle. The inside of the room was gigantic but rather... plain. There was a bed and several dressers but it seemed rather simplistic. Perhaps Mathis was one of practicality rather than lavishness. Elanor stepped inside and cautiously looked around. The female wolf smiled at her. "What can I bring you, Queen Elanor?" "I...I will need some clothing. Dresses and... the like." "Of course, My Lady. I will have a seamstress come to take your measurements. I do wish to make a suggestion." She smirked at Elanor. "I would bathe and prepare yourself for His Majesty. He will wish to make you his, very soon, I believe. It would be best to not disappoint." Elanor's face darkened and she turned. "H-Have a maid bring something that...that he would like." The female wolf nodded, "Of course, My Lady." She bowed her head and departed. As the maid departed the room, Elanor felt the silence engulf her... and she covered her face and slumped down onto the bed. The fear and pain of the days events made her begin to cry. @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched as Mikalah took the queen away. Mikalah would be her personal attendant. It would be a good fit Mikalah was fit, strong, smart, and most importantly loyal. Mathis went towards the great hall where most of the wolves relaxed, ate, drank, and sometimes fought. He sat at his chair at the head of the room. As he sat a drink was pour for him without him needing to ask. He took a long drink and look out at the dozens of wolves in the hall enjoying themselves. Makalah appeared behind him and without looking back Mathis ask "What did you sense" "Fear, she is timid you expect a deer to survive in a wolf den?" Makalah asked. "I see a wolf in deer clothing" Mathis says with a smirk "I think the expression is sheep" "same same" they joke. "I told her to prepare herself for you. Do you plan on marking each other?" "She is to be the queen right" "Once you do that its official, some will be pissed especially the women." "May it make them stronger then." "and her safety" "she will manage. You'll look after her" Makalah rolled her eyes, but protested no more. They sat there drinking for awhile longer. Once Mathis had his fill he rose and went to their room. His heartbeat growing faster with each step and he neared the door. The closer he got the more excited he became. He reached to room and walked in, his eyes transitioning as he entered. @Vava

Elanor spent a few minutes sobbing in the room. But, Mathis’s words slowly came back to her. “Rule like a wolf, or die by the hands of one.” She didn’t want to die… and she realized that if she didn’t get ready, who knew what Mathis would do. She got up and explored the room a little. She found a washroom within the bedroom. It was private and while it was huge, it too was simply designed. Elanor stepped I side and looked around. Thankfully she was clean as she had been taken in the day time, but, she decided to freshen herself up. She took a cloth and dipped it in the bath that seemed to be heated through a burning fire. She washed her face and her arms and chest, removing all the sweat and her tears. She set the cloth on a rack to dry and then, a maid brought in a new ‘dress’ for her to wear. Elanor went to the bed and gasped as she saw the dress. She prayed Mathis would like it, as it was not her typical outfit of choice… When Mathis decided to join her, he would enter the room and see Elanor standing in front of the bed. Her hair was down and she still wore her jewelry from this morning, a thin silver circlet with purple gemstones surrounding it. Instead of her white gown, she wore a black lace one that came to her mid thighs. It hugged her chest and hips perfectly and the thin straps rested on her shoulders. The dress was mostly made of silk, but has lace designed over it and at the edges, giving it a seductive appearance. She bowed slightly. “M-My Lord, welcome back.” She said, her cheeks dark red, a stark contrast to her pale skin. Her blue eyes made their way to his, curious as to what he thought. @OriginalMeta

Mathis looked down at Elanor. She looked beautiful. Mathis looked at her with eyes of desire the black lace dress hugged her body perfectly highlighting her curves. It was enough to drive anyone insane. As he looked her up and down he noticed the silver circlet he reached down and took it off. He rested it on the dresser "Now you're perfect" He said. He lifted her chin with his finger "You are a the wolf queen. You submit only to me and no one else." Mathis began to move towards the washroom and began taking off his shirt and clothing "wash me Elanor. I wish to be clean before the marking" @Vava

Elanor flinched slightly as Mathis’s large hand came up to her head. Was he going to choke her? Crush her cheeks together until her jaw shattered? No… suddenly her circlet came off, but then… he called her ‘perfect.’ Her heart slammed into her ribs, and this time, she wasn’t sure if it was from fear or… something else. Mathis instructed her to wash him so she followed behind. “Yes, Sire!” She entered the small washroom and once he was settled in the bath, she grabbed a fresh cloth and dipped it into the water. Normally, she would have servants help wash herself, so washing him by herself was definitely unusual. However, she didn’t plan on disobeying him, so she knelt down behind him and she began to mimic the movements that her servants would do when they washed her. They would start at her neck and wash all around it. The cloth covering each inch of his skin. Then, they’d move onto arms. She let the cloth travel down his right arm, but as she got farther from his shoulder, she had to lean down, her breasts barely brushing against him. Elanor was a petite woman but her bust was rather ample, as were her hips and backside. She had been blessed with ‘a beautiful birthing body’ as her mother had said. Elanor got to his hand and her small one slowly brushed the cloth over his hand. His fingers were so large and thick. Her face darkened at the thought of what his hands had done. But it also made her shiver in fear. @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched her carefully Elanor. He studied her intently he could sense her fear. But each time she acted, not letting it pause her. She was decisive, a trait for a queen. She was performing well. As she cleaned his upper body, Mathis said to her “do you know how two wolves commit themselves to each other? We don’t wear wears which are temporary and can be removed. We mark each other.” Mathis rubbed her cheek with the back of his hand and moved down her neck stopping at the crease where her neck began into the shoulder. “We use a bite, it leaves an unique impression that scars. It will never heal completely as long as the person who gave it still lives.” Mathis pointed to his neck “you will bite me and I will bite you. Bite hard it must break the skin leave your mark as the queen on the king for all the see” @Vava

Elanor paused as his large hand caressed her skin. The heat of the water, or rather, the heat of his skin, made her shiver and as she listened to how they would 'commit' to one another, she blushed heavily. His bite mark would scar her, and hers had to scar him. "Yes, Sire..." She felt her face darken even more. Why was he saying these things as if they were just that simple?! She wasn't like him! How could she bite him and make him hers... Then, images of him biting her, both rather forcefully and frighteningly, filled her head, making her hands tremble. Elanor was a virgin, and the thought of being intimate in such a way just frightened her! She swallowed nervously, continuing to wash him. She leaned down to continue washing his front, her hands running over his large chest down to his abdomen. @OriginalMeta

Mathis could feel her tremble. He was unfazed by her apprehension. The mark was necessary they would never respect her as the queen without it. The beast king did not practice magic in its traditional sense today but there are some traditions they respected, the mark was one of them. Mathis grabbed her shoulder and bite down on her neck. He was hard enough to break the skin, but not deep. Trickles of blood ran down her shoulder. When Mathis released his bite, it began to burn. Then the pain would completely fade. The bite would heal close after a few seconds and in its place almost like a birthmark a red bite impression unique to Mathis’ teeth would be left there. Mathis released Elanor and his mark. As he looked at her otherwise pristine skin, he was pleased that only his mark contrasted her pure skin. @Vava

Elanor yelped as he suddenly grabbed her. "Y-Your Majest-" She stopped as he suddenly sank his teeth into her shoulder, the skin breaking enough to form his mark. Elanor cried out, her hands immediately clawed against his forearms, her head falling back and her eyes wide with agony. She felt the warm blood run down her shoulder and when he released her, she dropped to her knees, gasping as the searing pain in her shoulder continued to burn. Then, as quickly as it came, the pain vanished. Elanor panted, a thin sheen of sweat covering her. She had to do that to him?! She pulled her hand away, blood staining her skin. Shaking, she stood up, using the cloth to dab at the blood. She made her way to him, and since he was seated in the bath, she simply climbed onto his lap. She knelt up, now level with his neck. She moved her head to the same place he had gone to her neck, and then she opened her mouth and bit down, biting firmly until she felt the skin break. As the skin broke, she pulled away, seeing her own little rows of teeth adorning his skin. She panted softly, the adrenaline coursing through her. "A-Are...Are you okay...Your Majesty?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched as she fell to the floor. As she fought through the pain of the mark taking place. He took pride in the fact she didn’t cry. The burn has been known to cause wolves to howl in pain. He watched her carefully as she recovered and climbed on to his lap. Then without hesitation, she bit him. Mathis could feel her tiny teeth struggling to break the skin then it did. He could feel the tiny sting left by her teeth, the mark she left would not turn red like his did but it would leave a scar. It would fade over time unless she continued to replace it. She asked if he was ok. He smiled at the notion that this tiny woman thought she could harm him. “You are now the Queen of the strongest people in this land.” He said as one one hand reached around her back, and up to her neck.Mitus’ hand massive compared to her tiny neck wrapped completely around. As he grabbed her neck, he pulled her in as he leaned down to and kissed her. His other hand found its way under her silk gown and grabbed her ass. @Vava

Elanor felt a small sense of pride as he stated that she was now the Queen of the strongest people. Somehow it felt good to be acknowledged like this. She looked into his eyes and before she could say anything, he wrapped his hand around her neck and pulled her in. His lips pressed to hers and she gasped, her eyes widening. What the hell? As his massive hand rose under her dress, she let out a surprised moan, her body betraying her fear. What was he doing? Hesitantly began to kiss him back. Though his kiss was far more intense, hers was way less experienced, but, she tried her best. Her internal desires, those of a woman who was mature and capable of mating, started to come out... She pulled away ever so slightly, her eyes half lidded. "M-M...Majesty...?" @OriginalMeta

Mitus’ breathing became quicker and more shallow. He could feel the beating of his heart as his desire for Elanor increased more and more. Each time he exhaled his eyes shimmered blue flickering from brown and back. Her lips felt so soft. She was so tiny in his arms, yet her curves was fully developed in all the right places. Her ass filled his massive hands, he began to squeeze both her ass and neck tighter. No enough to hurt her but she could feel his intensity for her. She pulled back just slightly and called to him. The way she called to him sent him over the edge of craving. “I want to feel more.” He said as his hand that was touching her ass started to rub the lips of her pussy.” @Vava

Elanor felt her chest throb as her heart slammed into her ribcage as Mathis's breathing got heavier. Each time he exhaled she let out a whimper of pleasure. He gripped her neck and ass tighter and she cried out, but not from fear. "M-Majesty!" His hand moved from her ass to her pussy and a strangled moan fled her lips. She placed her hands against his wrist. "M-Majesty! T-That...That feels so strange!" She cried, but she made no attempt to push him away. Her hips slowly began to grind against his hand as if she was on auto pilot. The sensations sent her head back. She moaned softly, her eyes fluttering as he rubbed her. Her moan was soft and full of confusion and desire. @OriginalMeta

Elanor’s moaning only pushed him further. He could feel she was starting to get wet. As he rubbed, he could feel himself getting hard. His dock rising between them as she sat on his lap it pressed against her stomach as she moved back and forth. When she leaned back Mathis began to kiss on her neck, then sucking on it. Then as he slid his fingers inside her as he bit her neck not as hard as the mark. It wouldn’t break the skin but he would feel it. @Vava

Elanor cried out as Mathis’s fingers suddenly entered her. Due to his height and size, his fingers filled her rather well, making her whimper with pleasure. She rocked her hips forward, desperate for more. This was confusing as… as she was so afraid of this man! How could she be enjoying this?! “M-Majesty! Majesty! Your fingers are so… d-deep!” She cried. Her head tilted to the side as he bit her again. Her eyes fluttering, “Oh Gods…” she moaned, her heartbeat now so loud she was positive the others could hear it downstairs. @OriginalMeta

Mitus could how warm she felt inside. She pussy was wet and he could feel her gripping his fingers with her pussy. Sense heightened as they were could hear her heart, he could sense her confusion. He could tell her body was betraying her mind. All of this contributed to Mitus' lust. His dick was throbbing for her now he would take her soon. But first he wanted toy with her mind longer. He put one more finger inside her, she was so tight, he almost couldn't do it. "You are so fucking tight I love how your pussy grips my fingers. Does it feel good when I play with your pussy?" he asked. @Vava

Mathis’s words gripped her entirely, pushing her close to the edge as he inserted another finger, making her cry out as he now stretched her to the size of a large elf male. If he actually tried to take her, would she even be able to take him?! With how wet she was becoming, it was a possibility. “I-It feels good, M-Majesty! Oh Gods it feels good!” She cried, her words sharp and nervous, though she was honest. Her insides twitched with her release, her fingernails digging against his arm. Suddenly, her insides spasmed and her hips rocked forward and backward, her eyes fluttering backwards as well as her orgasm shook her. “Mathis!! Mathis!! Oh Gods, Mathis!!” She dropped onto the floor of the bathroom, her back arching as she came, her nails sinking into his arm, nearly drawing blood. @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched as spasmed and orgasmed. He smiled as she called his name, knowing now that she wanted him mind and body. She fell to the floor and Mathis took his hand that she came all over and tasted it. Her cum tasted sweet. "Are you done? Don't you want to please your king?" He asked touching his fully erect dick. @Vava

Elanor panted heavily, struggling to recovery as Mathis asked if she was done. She carefully got up, kneeling before him. He was so large. There was no way he was going to fit!! Whether it was inside her or otherwise! She inhaled nervously and then said, "Yes, Majesty." She reached up and wrapped her small hands around his large cock, her hands unable to circle him. She leaned forward and she pressed delicate kisses to his shaft, her tongue slowly sliding along the length. He tasted salty and musky, and she shivered with confused arousal... @OriginalMeta

Mitus let out a small moan as her tongue slide the length of his cock. Her hands could barely grasp him. He could feel the intensity growing inside him. He wanted to ravage her small body, and he would. But for now, he wanted to enjoy watching the elf work his cock, intrigued by her tiny hands and mouth. Her long silver hair fell around her face as she kissed his dick. Mitus used his hands to pull it back, holding it like a ponytail. "Look at me as you do it" he commanded. @Vava

Elanor shivered as Mathis moaned. Oh Gods, she was not going to survive this if he made those sounds! She continued to lick him up and down. Her movements were inexperienced, but she did her best, working her small tongue around him in an effort to get him to feel good. She had heard the female servants and the soldiers talk about this type of thing, and of course she knew how to reproduce! But actually performing the action was easier said than done. She was doing her best, and she hoped he liked it. His hand went to her hair and she let out a soft moan. Upon his command, she looked up at him as she licked him from the base to the tip. As she got to the tip of his cock, she quietly asked. "Does this feel good, Majesty?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis kept hold of her hair and looked down at her as she used her hands and tongue. His cock twitched each time she licked it. He enjoyed looking into his eyes she tried to please him. She asked him if it felt good. It did, it made him want more. “It does, you tease your king.” He pulled her hair slightly. “Put it in your mouth” he said as much as a plea as it was a command. @Vava

Elanor blushed darkly as he told her that she teased him! She hadn't meant to, but, if he enjoyed the teasing then she would continue to do so. He tugged at her hair and she moaned softly, looking up at him as he told her to put it in. She opened her mouth and leaned forward, taking him in deeply. She moaned loudly, her mouth struggling to accept his size. She was really only able to get about half way down before she could no longer fit him, but she started to lick him as much as possible. She then pulled back, before going back down. She began a steady rhythm of bobbing her head up and down, her warm soft tongue pressing against the head of his cock each time. @OriginalMeta

Mathis’ head leaned back as he enjoyed Elanor taking his cock in her mouth. Each time she when down he let out a moan. It felt so good the sensation started to build. Mathis suddenly pulled her hair to take her mouth off his cock. It felt too good. His breathing was rapid the primacy within him couldn’t be ignored any longer. Mathis stood. As he did he picked up the tiny elf and pulled her in kissing her. Her legs wrapped around his torso as he walked from the bathroom to the bed. He dropped her down on the bed. He began stoking his cock as he looked at her on the bed still in her gown. @Vava

Elanor yelped as she was suddenly lifted up by the giant man. He pressed a kiss to her lips and Elanor moaned softly, kissing him back. She wrapped her legs around his hips and her arms held onto him as much as she could while he brought her into the bedroom. He dropped her onto the bed and she laid back, her dress riding up her thighs, now revealing that she was wearing no panties. She panted softly, easily overwhelmed by him and what he was doing to her. She was so inexperienced that she had no idea how to feel! She whimpered softly, completely unsure of his next move. Would he try to take her with that giant cock? Would it even fit? She looked into his eyes and asked a small question, "W-Will...Will it hurt?" @OriginalMeta

Mitus looked down at her with eyes full of lust. He wanted to control himself but he know it would be difficult. He looked and her tiny elf body. The fresh mark on her neck, down to her large breast that seem so be impossible on such a tiny woman. Lastly he looked at her pussy. It was still wet and calling to him. He longed to bury his cock deep inside her. She asked him will it hurt. “Yes it will. Put the pain will feel so good you will be begging me to hurt you more.” He said as he pulled her by her hips to the edge of the bed. He rested one hand on her pelvis and rubbed her clit. When she inserted his dick inside her. Only the head would fit. He started to thrust softly pushing a little deeper with each thrust as she got wetter and wetter. @Vava

Elanor inhaled nervously as he confirmed that it would hurt. Oh Gods... she was not looking forward to the pain, but, if this went well, perhaps this could feel far better than she expected. His gaze was one of a hungry beast, and she was his prey. Despite the primal stare, she shivered with pleasure. "I...I trust you." She whispered. He started to rub her and then he began to enter her. The head fit, but that was it. She felt her breath hitch as he started to thrust softly, his cock burying itself deeper and deeper into her as he began to get deeper and deeper. His cock filled her petite frame and Elanor arched her back, crying out. His cock was easily visible against her belly, his cock filling her all the way to her womb. It hit the entrance to her womb and she rested a hand against her lower belly. "I-It feels so hot...I...I can feel you so deep within me..." She whimpered, though her whimpers held no pain or fear. The pain was less than she expected, but it was still there. She shuddered with ecstasy, her head tipping back. "Oh Gods, Your Majesty..." @OriginalMeta

Mathis continued to thrust himself deeper inside her. With each thrust her pussy allowed more of his cock inside her. Her tiny frame could only take half of his cock, he could feel that he that he filled her completely. As he stood over her, he watched as his dick bulged her stomach. The sight tuned him on more knowing that she was at her limit of how much of his cock she could take. Her hand covered her stomach, the sight made him want to fuck her more. Mathis leaned his head back looking at the ceiling, then back down at her. He started to thrust harder as he reached up and grabbed her neck and started to slowly squeeze. "Fuck your pussy is gripping my dick so well." He said as he watched him is cock thrust in and out her of her. Each time he pulled back her pussy gripped his dick, like it didn't want leave. Mathis was more than willing to oblige, he pushed back into her forcing more of himself inside each time. @Vava

Elanor moaned loudly with his thrusts, the tip of his cock pressing against her womb, threatening to enter it if he dared to go harder. Mathis leaned back and Elanor could see his full height. Being taken like this, held down and towered over, made her shiver. Why did this turn her on so much?! Mathis's hand slowly came up to circle her neck and she moaned, her breathing slowly becoming restricted. However, she didn't feel afraid as he did this. "It...It feels so good! It's so...deep! I can feel it all the way in.. my belly!" She gasped, her eyes fluttering as he started to thrust harder. "M-Majesty! Oh Gods, Your Majesty!" She cried, her back arching high into the air. Her legs tightened against his hips, keeping him close. @OriginalMeta

The feeling of Elanor's pussy was almost too much for Mathis. His thrust getting harder and harder she felt too good. He knew he wouldn't be able to survive much longer inside her. His hand still around her neck the sound of her voice while he restricted her breathing only made him fuck her harder. "Fuck. You like when I'm deep in your belly" he asked looking into her eyes. He wanted to see the pleasure on her face. "You are mine to fuck and mine alone Elanor." He said moving his gaze down from her eyes to her large chest. With his other hand he grabbed her breast and squeezed hard. He wanted to feel them bare. He slipped off the one shoulder strap of her gown and grabbed her breast again switching from a grabbing and playing with just her nipple. @Vava

Elanor moaned louder as he kept thrusting hard against her. His cock slammed into her g-spot, sending so much pleasure coursing through her that she was unable to do anything other than moan and cry in pure pleasure. He stated that she was his to fuck, and his alone. "M-Me too! I am...only yours, and you are only mine. My body is the only one you will do this with..." She moaned, her eyes fluttering. She let out a cry as he grabbed her breasts and began to massage them. "Oh Gods, Mathis! I-I'm going to cum! I can't hold on... anymore!" She arched her back and screamed as her pussy spasmed and her insides clamping down against his cock, milking him for his release. She clung to him, her nails digging into his forearms as she writhed on the bed, her release intense and full of desire. @OriginalMeta

Mathis did not relent. Her pussy felt too good to slow down. Mathis could feel her pussy tighten around his cock as she came. The feeling was too much. He could feel the pressure building, ready to be released. He grabbed her by the hips and pulled her into him, as he buried his cock deep inside her and held it there forcing her to take as much as him she could fit. His cock began to pulsate and with each pulse more and more of his cum filled her. "Oh shit, I can't fucking hold it" was all he said as he came. When he finished Mathis was breathing heavy and struggled to catch is breath. He looked down at Elanor and rubbed her face. "Good girl" he said. Mathis was pleased with his new Queens performance. @Vava

Elanor cried out as he pounded her through her release. His hips did not stop even when he came. The warm glow of his seed filled her lower belly and all she could do was writhe about on the bed as she released for a second time. As they finished their release, Elanor collapsed onto the bed, panting heavily. She felt so exhausted and her insides felt so warm. He praised her and for once, Elanor didn't feel as if it meant nothing. She hesitantly reached upwards, her arms outstretched. She was looking for a hug, and she wished to hold onto him. She just felt so emotional, and it was strange. Though it wasn't truly strange, as Elves only sought one lover, and whoever they willingly let have their first time, became their intended lover. @OriginalMeta

Mathis was breathing hard. He was satisfied. He saw her reach out and he was confused. Wolves didn't hug the express love in the traditional sense. He stepped away from her, and laid down on the bed. He was ready to rest. He looked over at her "Rest tomorrow will be your first day as the official queen. I'm sure the others will be pissed I marked you." This was true, Mathis was sure she would received some resent. He was confident some of the more belligerent ones will likely approach him. Mathis was fine with this. It was the ways of the wolves, at anytime the title for prime could be challenged and taken. Mathis has been challenged three times in the past, it was a horrible mistake on their part. Tomorrow he would see if this elf could be useful. He believed he could achieve the transformation with the power of the elf. It was only a guess, but something told him she was the key. @Vava

Elanor felt her chest tighten as he moved away from her. She lowered her arms, feeling a sense of loneliness wash over her. Elves were a rather affection race, so not having physical affection after being intimate felt rather painful. But, she shook the feeling off. He wasn't really aware of her customs... Perhaps she could teach him. He instructed her to rest and she carefully rolled onto her side, facing him. Then, she carefully wrapped her arms around him. It was an affectionate move and an attempt to teach him what she wanted. She rested her head on his arm and she shut her eyes. She felt exhausted and she began to feel sleepy. Hopefully she would indeed rest, because she would truly need it if she were to survive in this new land. @OriginalMeta

Mathis laid on his back and closed his eyes. He opened them as Elanor rested her arm around him. He let it happen, he did feel an odd connectiveness to her. I marked her. She is mine. He looked down at her as she rested her head on his arm. As he got lost in thought his hand began to rub her back. She feels so smooth, so soft. Different from the rough scared skin of most beast kin Mathis liked how she felt. She was so small but his primal sense could tell there was something Powerful beneath the surface. He drifted off to sleep, with these thoughts holding his new queen. It was the first time Mathis had ever held a woman to sleep, his last thought was how nice the warmth of her body felt against his. In the Morning Mathis was woken by the sound of Mikalah entering the room. "Wake up Prime, breakfast is ready in the great hall." She said. Mikalah, one of his trusted friends, got away with talking differently to him. They grew up together and he know she meant it in jest. Mathis stood up, still naked from the night before. Although he was naked the two were completely unfazed by the fact. They had seen each other plenty of times. Mikalah looked over at the queen still in the bed, noticing the mark on her neck. "You really did it huh?" She asked. Mathis' mark made her officially the queen. Mikalah bowed "Is there anything you need, my queen?" she asked Elanor. @Vava

Elanor slept peacefully despite the strange place and the aftermath of being taken to a new home and being taken for the first time. In the morning, she was awakened by the voice of a stranger and she opened her eyes quickly. She sat up and sat a female beastkin. She gasped, covering herself quickly, but soon realized that this individual was closer to Mathis. A high ranking servant, perhaps? No, not a servant. She'd have to learn what lower ranking beast kin were titled in this land, but as the beast kin asked if she needed anything, she quietly spoke, "I...I will need some clothing. I don't believe I have any real appropriate attire." Mikalah nodded, "Of course, My Queen. We had our tailor prepare some dresses when you arrived yesterday, but we will have her create some new ones after. Please, allow this to be your first gift from your subjects." Mikalah clapped and two female beast kin girls entered carrying a bright white gown with silver filligree along the skirt. The arms of the dress rested at her upper arm and it was long, but form hugging. Elanor smiled. "It's a beautiful dress. Thank you." She took it and it appeared simple enough to get into. She went to get out of the bed, but stopped as Mikalah seemed to be watching her. "M-May...May I have a moment of privacy?" Mikalah chuckled softly and nodded. "Of course, My Queen." Elanor stood and slipped the dress on. It was indeed simple enough to get into, and it actually fit her perfectly! She turned to Mathis. "How does it look?" @OriginalMeta

While they talked Mathis went to a dresser in the corner of the room. He grabbed a simple white buttoned shirt and pants. He was not one for fancy clothes. He heard Elanor ask how she looked. Mathis turned to face her he was caught of guard by her beauty even though he had just spent the night wit her. She almost seemed to glow. The white gown fit her body perfectly, matching her flawless skin and white hair. The glow of her contrasted with the bright red bite mark on her neck and shoulder, it looked more like a tattoo at this point. He felt something stir in his pants from looking at her. He suppressed the urge to have her again, instead setting on a kiss. He walked up to her and rubbed is finger along the bite mark. The old magic that connected him to her almost visible in the teeth markings. "You are without a doubt the most beautiful queen in all the land" he said as he bent down to kiss her.

5:47 PM

He stood up and asked "Are you ready to eat? You haven't had anything since arriving here"

5:47 PM

@Vava

The expression Mathis made surprised both of them, and she blushed heavily as he came over and kissed her. She returned the kiss, her hands coming to rest on his chest. She felt him rub along the bite mark and she shivered, but didn't shy away from the touch. His compliment made her heart throb and she smiled up at him. "Thank you, My Lord." She was... shocked. She had not believed he would be so kind, and that she would be so... happy to receive his compliments. He questioned if she was ready to eat and before she could speak, her stomach responded instead. It growled hungrily and she blushed madly. "I-I am very hungry." She admitted, noticing that Mikalah was stifling laughter. Oh Gods, this was embarrassing! She was supposed to be elegant and graceful, not some starved animal! @OriginalMeta

Mathis nodded to Elanor. He know she was hungry. He was linked to her after all. He could feel her need for food. He was hungry as well, he had bee in such a hurry last night to mark her that he didn't even think about food. "Lets go eat my queen." He told her as he walked to the towards the door. As they they entered the hallway the trophies from past conquest lined the halls. The sound of laughter and noise could be heard down the hall. They entered the great hall. There were hundreds of wolves eating food and being merry. This is how the ate, as a family. Although they had brutish customs they cared for one another. There was no greater love than one had for the pack Mathis walked in with his queen and trusted friend Mikalah, and moved towards the head table that overlooked the great hall. As they walked in, the entire hall grew silent. All eyes were on Elanor, whispers could be heard thought out the hall. They were talking about her mark. It was the first time a non beastkin had been marked. Mathis expected their confusion. "Is there a problem?" Mathis bellowed as he sat down. There was a brief pause before the wolves cheered and the noise returned. As he looked out into the crowd of wolves he could see there were some that still stared in disbelief at the new queen and her mark. Mathis locked eyes with each of them taking note, as food was brought out in front of them. @Vava

Elanor followed Mathis to the Great Hall, leaving him a little room as she walked. Her dress trailed behind her, and she kept her head up as she wanted to portray confidence, despite how nervous she felt. She knew that the other wolves may sense her nervousness, but, she couldn't show her fear. If she did, Mathis's warning would come true. They entered the hall and immediately, all eyes moved to the two that entered the room. Elanor noticed that everyone was looking at her, specifically, her neck. She reached up and touched the mark, but she did not hide it. She stepped up to Mathis's side and she took his hand in hers. Mathis shot the looks down and the two sat down and Elanor could feel the stares. She inhaled slowly but looked around the room. She did not want to be the social pariah, but, there was nothing she could do for now. She took her fork and she began to eat as the food was placed on her plate. With her free hand, she placed a hand on Mathis's arm. It was a gentle and loving gesture. She hoped that perhaps he would reciprocate her affection. @OriginalMeta

Mathis ate his food and watched the crowd. Many of the stares had disappeared and the great hall returned to the loud ruckus it was when they entered. Mathis was enjoying his food being merry with many wolves that approached him and started small talk with him.

The wolves that approached him had mixed reactions to the queen some show her respect and bowed and some pretended she wasn't there. The one's who ignored her Mathis made it a point to make them bow as a sign of respect. He would not tolerate disrespect of their customs. Some would consider him making a non wolf disrespect to the customs, but they didn't actually specifically say you couldn't so Mathis considered it a loop hole. Mikalah stood behind him and tapped him on the shoulder. As Mathis looked up at her, she indicated towards the edge of the room. She looked towards Cole, the son of the wolf Mathis had challenged to take the throne from. Cole, had challenged Mathis twice now and lost. It was not lost on Mathis that Cole intended to keep trying until he usurped him. Mathis leaned over to Elanor "Do not show weakness or back down." he said as he patted her hand that rested on his arm. Cole made his way over to the table "What in the fuck are you thinking Mathis? Bringing this outside bitch into the pact? Have you no respect?" Cole began. @Vava

Elanor smiled lightly as Mathis patted her hand. She hadn't seen any of the wolves stand so when a tall male came up to the table and insulted her, her eyes widened. He had called her a bitch! Elanor had been called plenty of insults before. That's what ruling a kingdom was like. However, being called a bitch was unacceptable. That was just completely disrespectful. Elanor stood up and immediately all eyes were on her and Mathis. Elanor looked at Cole, her eyes narrowing. "Say that again." Cole snarled at her. "This doesn't concern you, bitch. You hold no power over me. You are nothing but an invasive little slut that Mathis is too stupid to kill. That mark on your throat is nothing. You. Are. Nothing." Two guards rushed forward and Elanor held her hands up. "No. I will handle this myself..." She made her way around the table, her hands clasped together in front of her as she walked towards Cole. He took a step toward her, trying to intimidate her. Immediately, Elanor raised her hand and a sharp and loud SLAP sounded through the hall. Gasps from the entire clan sounded as Cole's head snapped to the side, his eyes wide. "You will never insult Your Queen again. Do I make myself-" She couldn't finish as Cole suddenly shifted forward and grabbed Elanor's throat in both his hands. He immediately squeezed as hard as possible. Elanor cried out, her nails sinking into Cole's hands as she struggled against Cole. "I will fucking kill you!!" He roared. @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched the situation play out with calm calculation. He almost rose when Cole began talking. He would not tolerate any disrespect. He stopped himself when Elanor said she would handle it. He was proud of her bravery. Then she slapped him and Mathis smiled it was well within her right to demand his respect. Then Cole reacted and everything went red for Mathis. Cole grabbed her neck and the guards moved towards Cole, but Mathis was quicker a lot quicker he was the without a doubt the strongest and fastest there. Mathis vaulted over the table and grabbed the arm squeezing Elanor's neck. He squeezed himself, he could feel the bones in Cole's arm breaking. Mathis was surprised it took very little effort to break his arm. Too little effort. Mathis was strong without a doubt, but so was Cole. Mathis should not have been able to break his arm so easily. Something is off here. Mathis thought to himself. There was no time to ponder his unexplained strength, as Cole howled out in agony. His grasp on Elanor forcibly broken. Mathis slammed Coles head on the table, again not under estimating his strength, the oak table cracked upon colliding with his head. "Are you stupid? You dare harm my wife before my very eyes? You have chosen to die today old friend." Mathis growled in his ear as he pressed his head onto the table his claws digging into his scalp. Mathis stood up and said loud enough for everyone to hear. "Thank you for giving Queen Elanor the opportunity to give her first decree." I look at Elanor "What do you want to do with this mutt?" he asked. The whispers starting around the hall. The act of strength we clearly abnormal. @Vava

Elanor hit the ground as Mathis snapped Cole’s arm. She coughed hard, her hands going to her throat. She was trembling now, but she knew she couldn’t run away. She had caused this. She had hit cole first and now she was causing Mathis to fight him! “Stop! Please!” She begged, standing up. She stood behind Mathis, her eyes wet with unfallen tears. “Put him in the dungeons. Let him think about what has happened, and let him understand that he is never to touch His Queen again.” She said, her hands trembling but her gaze strong and firm. As Elanor heard the whispers, she turned her head towards them. “Enough.” She stated. One by one, the whispers stopped. Elanor looked at Mathis. She slowly approached him and she wrapped her arms around his back. “Please, Your Grace. I do not wish to see any blood shed this morning.” @OriginalMeta

Mathis stared angrily down at Cole. He was unsure the origin of his anger. Was he angry that Cole challenged his authority, or was it he actually had feelings for her. He did feel a connection to her, but did he really love her? Mathis was unsure she did seem to some sway over him. Was she the source of his newfound strength? It took hearing the commanding tone of Elanor's "Enough" to snap hi out of it. "You are lucky Cole she showed you mercy. Next time I'll rip this arm off" Mathis said as looking a Cole's arm already beginning to heal. Mathis moved away from Cole and two royal guards moved in, hitting Cole over the head to knock him out. They then dragged him away. Mathis looked towards Elanor "you are better than me. I wouldn't have made an example of him." @Vava

Elanor shook her head as Mathis told her that she was better than him. "It has nothing to do with being better than you, or you being better than me. It is different ruling styles. If I go around slaying everyone who disrespects me... I'm no better than a tyrant." She said softly. She looked up at him, her eyes wet with tears. Her neck was already bruising, but she didn't let her tears fall. She blinked them away and she looked back to the crowd of wolves gazing at her. "Know this," She called, "I am merciful, but I am not going to become your punching bag. If that is a problem... it might be best to speak to me about it, rather than trying to crush my airway..." She said, rubbing her neck. She made her way back to her seat and she sat down. "Your Majesty," She called to Mathis, "Will you come sit with me again?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis listened as the she addressed the pack. When she returned to her seat and asked him to join him, Mathis turned to wolves in the great hall. "Your new queen may be merciful, but I am not. Challenge her again, and I will kill you. She bears my mark, the only of its kind. I need not tell you what that means." Mathis turned and joined her at the table. Mikalah quickly came to stand behind the queen. "Does your neck need medical attention my queen? Do elves not heal as we do? I thought they posses great magic capable of many feats." She asked not out of sarcasm, but truly of concern. Mathis was also curious, he was very interested in what she was capable of. He intended to see if this could help him achieve the transformation lost to his people. @Vava

Elanor felt a sense of pride and pleasure swell up within her as Mathis called that she was the only one to bear his mark. Her hand instinctively reached up and touched the mark. It seemed to burn as she did but the burn didn't hurt. Instead, it felt warm and she smiled lightly. She was the Queen... his Queen. She shook her head slightly. Why did that pleasure her so? She had only become his in a duel. It wasn't as if he actually courted her. But, then again, it did make her happy to hear that she was his, and he was not allowing her to be harmed. As Mikalah asked if she needed medical attention, she felt a new sensation rush through her. Shame... She bit her lip and she shook her head. "I am fine. It will heal on its own..." She said. "Elves are unable to use their healing magic on themselves anyway, and... besides I..." She stopped. "Nevermind. I am fine. Please do not worry. Perhaps some bandages, but other than that, I am fine." She said quietly. She didn't want to admit that her healing magic was not as advanced as the other elves. She had tried for so long to master it, but she had been unable to actually heal anything more than a paper cut. @OriginalMeta

Mathis listened to the conversation. "That seems kind of pointless. You can't use your healing magic on yourself?" Mathis was critical. He wanted to know depth of her abilities for his own reasons. Mikalah look on but said nothing else until the two had ate finished eating their food. Mikalah would wait till they finished. "When you two are ready there is a matter I would I need to discuss with the both of you when you are ready...We received a message of the one of the Elf King's generals " Mathis would nod. "Meet us in the council room." @Vava

Elanor felt ashamed as Mathis called her ability useless. Her magic wasn’t useless. Using magic to heal yourself was not allowed because it trifled with the Gods above, so that was the set back of their magic. She finished eating in silence, not wanting to acknowledge his comment. She stood up as she finished eating and followed Mathis to the council room. She waited until he was seated before she sat down too. “What did you need to see us about?”

9:41 AM

@OriginalMeta

Mathis led the way to the council room. It was a high circular room with a large circular table in the middle of the room. There was very little furniture or decorations. Mathis and the wolves he trusted as his council used the room to talk private matters. It wasn't often that they had to use this room, Mathis was very open with his policies and welcomed challenge. Mahis took seat and gestured to the see beside him for Elanor. It was a chair that was usually empty reserved for the Queen of Wolves her rightful seat as queen. As she sat down Mathis couldn't help but wonder why he didn't mark a wolf before. The Primes before him marked very soon after obtaining Prime. Mathis kept his thoughts brief, aware that he definitely had the most unique queen ever marked. Mikalah wasted no time explain the situation. "The Elf King, your father, I believe would like to set up a parlay. He wrote he is concerned with his daughter's well being. It said that if he can be assured that she is heathy and happy, he would be open to a armistice between us and them." Mathis was skeptical. The Wolves and Elves have been at each other's throat for centuries, he didn't believe that would all end due to one woman essentially being kidnapped from her father. "This seems foolish why should I even entertain this request? I have nothing to gain from an armistice with the elves." Mathis told Mikalah. "Yes well there are some benefits." Mikalah said looking towards the queen and not elaborating any more. @Vava

As the two sat down, Mikalah revealed that the Elf King, her father, wanted to set up what was called a parlay. Elanor listened closely as Mikalah further explained that her father wanted to make sure she was alright and that it would be a small gathering to ensure she was safe. She had been taken so abruptly from her home that the thought of seeing her family again for even just a moment had her smiling. However, Mathis quickly shut it down, and Elanor felt... hurt. Did he have such little respect for her feelings that he didn't even think of her? She reached for his hand and held it, as if trying to remind him that she was here; She was his queen, and this was mainly for her. "If it pleases you, Your Grace, I wish to accept my father's offer. I...I miss them. I'd love the chance to see them once again and show him how I have come to grow as the Queen. Shouldn't we try to end the blood shed between our kingdoms? Wasn't that the entire point of this marriage?" She gave him a slightly hard stare. He had won her in a fight, but a war had not been waged for it, and this would be a good show that the Wolves and the Elves could live peacefully. "Will you please do me this honor? Please... I wish to see my family just once more..." @OriginalMeta

Mathis eye Elanor with a cautious eye. Mathis couldn't help but have his reservations about this this meeting. As he looked a Elanor his eyes rested on the bright red mark on her neck, the vivid contrast of the red against her pristine skin made he feel a little at ease. His eyes drifted from her neck to her bosom. He remembered the night before, how eager she was to please him despite the circumstances, his pants got tight again at the thought. Mathis put his hand on hers. "Fine if the queen wishes it, it shall be done." He looked over to Mikalah, "set it up. Tell them we will meet them." Mikalah nodded "Of course my lord. They want to meet at dawn is that acceptable?" she asked. "I have no problem with it" Mikalah once again. She looked towards the queen "Is there anything else you would like before I take my leave your majesty?" @Vava

Elanor smiled happily as Mathis said that he would allow the meeting. "Thank you, Your Grace." She took his hand in hers and gave it a gentle squeeze. She was really touched that he allowed her this pleasure. Elanor looked back to Mikalah and she thought for a second, "I would like to see the gardens, but perhaps His Grace would be willing to escort me to the gardens sometime if he is free?" She asked, looking over at Mathis. She wished to spend a little more time with him, but she understood if he was too busy, she just wished to know. She wished to get to know him a little better. Subconsciously, she touched the mark on her neck. It felt warm and she smiled lightly, feeling prideful that she had this mark, despite everything that had occurred just a few hours before. She did feel rather sore in her neck. She'd have to see if some herbs would help fix it. @OriginalMeta

Mikalah waited to see Mathis' response to the request. Mathis looked at Elanor, he didn't particularly feel like taking a stroll in the gardens. As she reached up and touched the mark on his neck the bond he had to her through the old magic. He felt a warmness for the elf queen. The emotions of affection swept over him. Was his plan backfiring on him? He only taken this woman to use her to try and achieve the transformation using her magic. Why was he feeling affection for her? He pushed the thought out of his mind. He told himself to ignore these feelings, he was caught up in connection from marking her. Still he found himself wanting to spend time with her. "We have nothing better to do till tomorrow I guess." He said. Mikalah nodded. "Very well. Then I shall leave to send a messenger back to the elf king." She turned and left the room leaving the two of them alone. @Vava

Elanor felt tense as she waited for his answer. If he rejected her request, she would understand, though it would hurt her feelings a little. She wanted this marriage to be kind and loving, not just two individuals who called themselves husband and wife, but had no interest in one another. Elves grew attached to their lovers, and if he refused her affection, it would be like torture. However, he surprised her as he told her that they had nothing better to do. She chuckled softly and reached for his hand. "Thank you, Your Grace." Mikalah left the room and now being here alone, she felt a bit... shy. She didn't have to necessarily be 'strong' in front of Mathis. If he looked at her, he would see the bruising from her attack peeking out from under the bandages. She squeezed his hand in hers. "Shall we head to the gardens, Your Grace?" She asked softly. @OriginalMeta

Mathis rose at her request. He walked with her towards the gardens. The cold stone corridors silent except the sounds of their walking. Mathis didn't understand exactly why he was placating this elf, but he didn't hate the idea of spending time with her. As they entered the garden, located at the center of the keep wolves' stronghold, the large plants immediately became visible. There were many different types of flowers, they surrounded statues of some of the greater primes of the past. Mathis hoped one day his statue would be here. He would walk Elanor through the garden, passing the many flowers and garden formations. He would lead her to the largest statue in the center of the garden. It was his favorite, the one of the first Prime. Elanor would see it didn't resemble any wolf kin she had seen at the stronghold. He looked completely like a beast. A massive wolf on all fours. There was no mistaking it for a normal wolf, it was fives times larger with fangs and claws. They eyes were sapphires, representing the eyes of a true wolf. "This is what has been lost to my people. Wolf kin have a sacred connection to the wolf nature spirt, she blessed us with supernatural powers. In the past, with her blessing we could shift into true children of the wolf much like this statue. Something happened...we lost her gift." Mathis hesitated. Why was he telling her all this? "I want to connect our people back to the wolf spirit...I just don't know how." @Vava

Elanor kept a hold on his hand, which indeed got them a few strange looks. Most wolf kin women were not as open about their affection, so seeing this elvish woman holding hands with the Prime sent some wolves nearly spiraling. Though no one said a word for fear of receiving their Prime's wrath. As they stepped into the garden, Elanor's eyes widened and she gasped quietly. The gardens were beautiful. Far more beautiful than she had initially expected, and she felt a bit ashamed at thinking that the Wolf Kin would not have magnificent gardens. Mathis brought them deeper into the gardens and they passed numerous status of different rules, all of which she assumed were past Primes. She was unfamiliar with them, but she made a mental note to research all the past Primes and come spot each one. Mathis finally stopped at one, though this status did not resemble any Prime. No, it was a statue of a massive wolf. Mathis explained that it resembled the gift that the Wolf Nature Spirit had once blessed the Wolf Kin with the ability to become these massive wolves, but somehow, this gift was no longer available to the Wolf Kin... Mathis's words made Elanor frown out of sadness. Why? That she couldn't explain... It was as if... his sadness became her sadness. She took both of his hands in hers this time. "I am sorry, Your Grace. I will do my very best to help you and our people reconnect with the Wolf Spirit. I am sure there is a way, and we will find it." She smiled. The sun was shining so brightly and the warmth from the sun felt good on her skin. Perhaps it was the beauty of their location, or perhaps it was due to him protecting her earlier. Then again, it didn't really matter now. Elanor suddenly leaned up and pressed a gentle kiss to Mathis's lips. @OriginalMeta

"I am sorry, Your Grace. I will do my very best to help you and our people reconnect with the Wolf Spirit. I am sure there is a way, and we will find it." Her words spoke to Mathis. He leaned into the kiss she offered. He was beginning to feel some attachment to her. She seemed to care for him and his people. He originally planned to use her, manipulate her to achieve power. Now he was unsure, he didn't expect her to be so...amazing. Giving her circumstance, she was performing well above the expectation. From how she pleased him last night, to how she carried herself with strength at breakfast. Maybe he should do something with for her. He was glad he agreed to let her meet with her father. When the kiss was over he asked "What else would you like to see of your kingdom Queen Elanor?" he said it with a smile. His plans to show her the garden then part ways completely abandoned. @Vava

Elanor smiled softly, her hands still resting on his chest for a moment. He asked if there was anywhere else she wanted to see of 'her' kingdom, and she blushed a little. Learning that this was her kingdom now... felt rather nice, despite the circumstances. She had thought that she would hate this place, hate Mathis, and hate her life from here now. But, Mathis seemed to protect her and almost in a way... care for her. "I would like to see your favorite part of your Kingdom. Wherever you go to calm your mind... I wish to see that." She whispered softly. "I wish to know where my husband finds his peace." @OriginalMeta

Mathis gazed at the statue of the previous king, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart. He couldn't transform into a werewolf like the king in the statue, and he felt like he had lost a part of himself. When Elanor spoke up, asking if there was anywhere else he wanted to show her, he thought of his hidden retreat in the mountains, where he often went to clear his mind and find peace. As they walked through the winding paths, Mathis felt a sense of calm and contentment being by Elanor's side. She was unlike anyone he had ever met before, and he found himself drawn to her. As they arrived at the entrance of the retreat, Mathis felt a sense of peace wash over him. The stillness of the air and the beauty of the nature surrounding them made him forget about his troubles, if only for a moment. "This is my sanctuary," Mathis said, gesturing to the peaceful surroundings. As he gazed into her eyes, Mathis couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt. He had been using Elanor for her magic, and he knew it wasn't fair to her. But the thought of being able to transform into a wolf again was too tempting to resist. He needed her magic to regain his power, but he didn't want to hurt her in the process. Deep down, Mathis knew he was using her, but he didn't want to admit it to himself. He cared for her, but he also needed her help. He was torn between his desire to regain his power and his guilt for using Elanor. He hoped that she wouldn't see through his facade and realize what he was truly after. "Let's take a walk," Mathis said, hoping to distract himself from his internal turmoil. "I want to show you something." As they walked through the retreat, Mathis tried to focus on the beauty of the surroundings and push his guilt aside. He hoped that Elanor wouldn't notice his inner conflict and continue to be by his side. He wanted to be a good husband to her, but he also needed to regain his power. It was a dilemma he wasn't sure how to solve. @Vava

Elanor followed Mathis to the retreat. The pathway was interesting and beautiful with different fauna and flora that riddled the walkway. They walked in quiet silence but Elanor found that she really enjoyed just being in his presence, and she was really confused as to why. He had been rather kind to her the previous night, but he had been a bit cold in the morning. Either way, right now, he was being kind, and Elanor didn't want to chance that by asking about it. They arrived at a beautiful sanctuary and Elanor gasped softly. "Wow..." She looked around at the retreat and the surrounding area. "It's beautiful here." She said softly. "I can see why this place is your favorite." Mathis looked into her eyes, and Elanor smiled up at him. He wished to take a walk and Elanor nodded, wrapping her arm around his to allow him to guide her. "Of course, Your Grace." She followed him as he started to walk. She noticed that he was a bit distracted and once they arrived at a small pond surrounded by flowers and bush, she made him stop in their walk. "Your Grace..." She said softly, reaching up and touching his cheek. "If something is bothering you... please remember that you can rely on me. I am your wife... and I am here for you." She said softly. She wanted him to rely on her for his needs, so she didn't want him to hide things from her. She knew nothing of his inner turmoil, but she tried hard to be there for him. @OriginalMeta

Mathis led Elanor to his favorite retreat, a serene sanctuary surrounded by lush greenery and a tranquil pond. As they walked, he couldn't help but feel conflicted about his true intentions for marrying her. He wanted to regain his ability to transform into a wolf, but at the same time, he didn't want to use Elanor's magic for his own gain. He tried to push those thoughts aside as they arrived at the pond, but Elanor's touch on his cheek brought them back to the forefront of his mind. He looked down at her and saw the kindness and concern in her eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. "Thank you, Elanor," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "I appreciate your support. I'm just... struggling with some things." He didn't want to burden her with the weight of his problems, but at the same time, he didn't want to continue using her for her magic without her knowing the full extent of his intentions. He took a deep breath, steeling himself to reveal his true motivations. "Elanor, I must admit... part of the reason I married you was because of your magic. I want to regain my ability to transform into a wolf, and I believed your magic could help me achieve that." He braced himself for her reaction, unsure of how she would take this confession. @Vava

Elanor tilted her lead as Mathis stated that he was struggling with some things. What could he be struggling with? He was a King so there was a lot to struggle with, but she wondered what was so bad that he couldn't tell her... Suddenly, he revealed that part of the reason he married her was just due to her magic. But it wasn't the only reason. He had believed her magic could help him turn into a wolf. So... he had used her, or rather, he was trying to use her. Elanor was quiet for a moment as she thought about this. But her hands did not move from his. She nodded slowly, thinking. She then leaned up and pressed another kiss to his lips. She lingered there for a moment before she pulled away lightly. "I...I am not angry. I am a little... unsure as to why you keep me around even thought you know my magical limitations. I guess... I am frightened that perhaps you will no longer need me and banish me. Then, I'll be all alone and..." She shook her head, hiding her face behind her hair. "I would rather die than let that happen..." @OriginalMeta

Mathis felt a sense of relief wash over him as Elanor accepted his admission. He had been worried about how she would react, but now he realized that he had underestimated her. She was stronger and more understanding than he had given her credit for. He listened as she shared her fears with him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt wash over him. He had used her for her magic, and he knew that it was wrong. But at the same time, he couldn't deny the feelings that he was starting to develop for her. Before last night, he had no intention of loving her. He had married her solely for her magic, but now he felt a connection to her that he couldn't explain. He didn't know when or how it had happened, but somewhere along the way, she had become more than just a means to an end. He tightened his grip on her hand and pulled her closer to him. "Elanor," he said softly, "I know that I haven't been the best husband to you, and for that, I am truly sorry. But I want you to know that I do care for you, and I don't want you to feel like you're just a means to an end for me. You are so much more than that." He looked into her eyes and saw the fear and uncertainty there. He knew that he had a lot of work to do to earn her trust and show her that he truly cared for her, but he was willing to do whatever it took. "I won't banish you, Elanor," he said firmly. "You are my wife, and I will do everything in my power to protect and care for you. I know that I have a lot to make up for, but I promise you that I will try my best to be the husband that you deserve." @Vava

His grip got tighter on her and she smiled more, looking into his eyes as he said her name. She loved the way it sounded. When she had initially thought of this arrangement, she felt intense fear, but now... after their first night together, and after his soothing words, she felt a sense of pleasure and pride. It was strange, because she didn't really understand how she could have this feeling, but, she did! She was still a little unsure about him in a way, but the fear was no longer so captivating that she only felt fear. She actually could feel other emotions, and she enjoyed that the most. He firmly stated he would not banish her, and he would do everything in his power to care for and protect her. Her heart beat quickly as he stated this. Was he essentially pledging himself to her? "Mathis..." She whispered. She cupped his cheek with one hand and she smiled softly. "I have no doubt in my mind that you will. If today has shown me anything... it is that you are not a liar. I will do everything I can in this life to ensure that you are able to turn into a wolf again. I give you my word. I will not stop until you achieve this. I promise." She then leaned up and kissed him again. With her kiss, she vowed this promise. She would make sure she could get him to turn again. @OriginalMeta

As Mathis listened to Elanor's promise, he felt a surge of emotion welling up inside him. He couldn't believe that someone like her was willing to do so much for him. He leaned in and captured her lips in a deep and passionate kiss. It was as if he was trying to convey all of his emotions through that one kiss. He held her close, feeling the softness of her lips and the warmth of her body against his. The kiss lasted for what felt like an eternity, but eventually, they pulled away, breathless. Mathis looked deeply into her eyes, feeling a newfound sense of closeness with her. "Elanor," he said, his voice thick with emotion. "I...I never expected to feel this way. But after last night and today, I can't deny that there's something between us. I want to protect you, care for you, and be with you always." He leaned in for another kiss, his hands slowly sliding down her back. It was as if he couldn't get enough of her. He kissed her deeply and passionately, feeling an intense connection between them. He knew that things were complicated between them, but in that moment, he didn't care. All he wanted was to be with her, to feel her close to him, and to never let go. @Vava

Elanor's eyes widened as Mathis suddenly kissed her. She felt his kiss and the passion that it filled her with. It was so sudden, and she couldn't help but blush. Her arms slowly moved to wrap around his neck, her hands going to his hair. She kissed him back, her hands holding onto him to keep him close to her. As he pulled away, she felt breathless. She panted softly, her eyes half lidded as she stared into his eyes. "Mathis... I'm glad that... you feel this way. I...I never thought you would. I thought you... hated me." She whispered. Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes as she whispered this. When he first met her, he had taken her, and she had felt a small spark of his passion, but now, it was so sweet and real. He kissed her again and she moaned softly against his kiss. His hands were on her, and she pulled herself closer to him, kissing him back. Her tongue shyly poked out and pressed against lip. @OriginalMeta

Mathis couldn't hold back the flood of emotions that surged through him as he kissed Elanor passionately. His heart raced with desire, and he felt a deep connection to her that he hadn't expected. He had been denying his feelings for so long, but now, in this moment, it was impossible to resist the pull he felt towards her. Elanor responded eagerly to his kiss, her arms wrapping around his neck, her fingers tangling in his hair. Her lips were warm and soft against his, and he lost himself in the taste and feel of her. He deepened the kiss, his tongue seeking entrance to explore her mouth, and she responded with a soft moan that sent shivers down his spine. Their bodies pressed together, and he felt the heat building between them. His hands roamed her curves, tracing the contours of her body, and he couldn't get enough of her. The fear and doubts that had once plagued him were forgotten in this moment, replaced by a raw, overwhelming desire for her. As they broke for air, Mathis looked into Elanor's eyes, his own filled with emotion. "Elanor," he whispered hoarsely, his voice thick with longing. "I never expected to feel this way, but I can't deny it anymore. I need you, I want you, and I can't resist you any longer." He kissed her again, their lips melding together in a fiery embrace. The passion between them was palpable, and they lost themselves in each other, forgetting everything else in the world. In that moment, their connection was undeniable, and they surrendered to the raw emotions that consumed them, lost in the intensity of their newfound love. @Vava

Elanor moaned softly as he deepened the kiss. Her tongue dancing with his, the heat of their embrace and their kiss just sending her spiraling into a moment of utter bliss. His hands were roaming around her body and she let out soft moans in response. "Mathis...." This felt different than their first night together. Their first night together was under different circumstances and she had felt far more nervous and obligated to be unionized with him. Now, she felt as though these touches were because he wanted to touch her. He wanted her. Mathis confirmed what she felt. He needed her, wanted her, and he couldn't resist her... He kissed her again and Elanor moaned softly, wrapping her arms around him tightly, her hands going to his hair. "Mathis, I...I feel the same. I want you. I need you so badly, please." She whispered against his lips, her kisses getting more frequent and needy. She was shaking with the intensity of the pleasure within her, and she let her hands moved down his chest. She started to undo the buttons on his shirt, her delicate fingers easily moving through the buttons. She then took his hands and placed them against her chest. "Mathis...Please, I need you." @OriginalMeta

Mathis felt Elanor's arms wrap tightly around him and he knew in that moment that he wanted nothing more than to be with her. The way she responded to his touch, the way she moaned his name, it was all he needed to hear. He kissed her deeply, feeling her tongue dance with his and the heat of their embrace consuming him. As she whispered her desires to him, Mathis couldn't help but feel his own need for her grow stronger. He ran his hands over her body, feeling every curve and dip, eliciting soft moans from her. When she started to undo the buttons on his shirt, he felt his heart race with anticipation. As she took his hands and placed them against her chest, Mathis could feel the intense desire building within him. He leaned in to kiss her neck, softly biting and sucking on her skin, feeling her body tremble under his touch. "Elanor," he whispered in a husky voice, "I want you too. More than anything." He moved his hands down to her hips, pulling her close to him as he continued to kiss her passionately. He couldn't wait to explore every inch of her body, to show her just how much he desired her. @Vava

Elanor moaned as his hands continued to roam her body. As he started to kiss her neck, she tilted her head to the side, falling into him with a moan. "Mathis!" Her hands clutched at his body, his arms, everywhere she could get. Her hips pressed against his and she cried out softly, her hips starting to grind against his. "Please, please, Mathis! I need you too." She begged. She suddenly tugged him down to the ground, both of them on the grassy floor by the lake. She pushed him to lay flat on his back as she climbed up onto him, straddling his hips. She began to undo his belt and buttons on his trousers. "I can not wait until we return. I need you, Mathis, now." She said quickly. She started to grind her hips again, but she lifted her dress so only her panties and his boxers were separating their bodies. She moaned loudly, her head tipping back as she pushed her hips into his. "Mathis!" @OriginalMeta

Mathis groaned as Elanor pressed herself against him, her hips grinding against his. He felt his desire for her intensify, and he knew he couldn't resist her any longer. As she pulled him down to the ground and straddled him, he felt a surge of excitement run through him. He watched as she quickly undid his belt and buttons, the urgency in her movements driving him wild with desire. He lifted his hips to help her remove his pants, his eyes never leaving hers. "I need you too, Elanor," he said huskily, his voice filled with desire. As she lifted her dress, Mathis felt his breath catch in his throat. He couldn't believe how beautiful she looked, straddling him like that. He moaned as she began to grind her hips against his, their bodies growing hotter and more desperate by the second. "Elanor," he groaned, his hands running up and down her thighs. "I want you so badly. Let me show you how much." @Vava

Mathis moaned and it sent shivers up and down her body. She loved the way her name sounded on his lips. She felt his hands roaming up her thighs and she shivered with ecstasy. "Ahh, Mathis..." She whimpered. She suddenly pulled her panties to the side and then she tugged his trousers and boxers down. His cock sprang free and she raised her hips up and then she lowered herself down onto his cock. She gasped loudly, arching her back as she moaned loudly. "Oh Gods, Mathis!" She cried. Her nails sunk in against his chest slightly. This was only the second time they had been intimate, so having him inside her again after so long was really important. She moaned again, her hips slowly rising and falling as she started to bounce up and down on him. "Mathis, Mathis!" @OriginalMeta

Mathis couldn't help but groan as he felt Elanor pull him inside of her. He grabbed onto her hips as she started to move up and down, matching her movements with his own. The feeling of being inside of her was pure bliss and he couldn't get enough of it. He looked up at her, taking in the sight of her above him, bouncing on his cock. He reached up and cupped her breasts, massaging them gently as she moved. "You feel so good, Elanor," he whispered, his voice thick with desire. He couldn't hold back anymore, he needed to feel her even closer to him. He flipped her over so that he was on top of her, still inside of her. He started to thrust harder and faster, their moans and cries of pleasure filling the air around them. "Gods, I've missed you," he said, his breath coming out in short gasps. "I need you, Elanor." He leaned down and kissed her deeply, their tongues tangling together as they moved together in perfect harmony. @Vava

Eleanor's hips bounced up and down at a slow but steady pace, her hands resting comfortably on Mathis's chest. "Oh Gods, Mathis! You're so deep!" She cried, her head tilting back as she moaned into the open air. THe feeling of his hands on her breasts felt so good. Before, she had dreaded the thought of him touching her, but now, she needed him more than ever. She loved hearing his voice. Every moan he let out made her gasp and shiver. He suddenly flipped her over and she gasped, her head falling back into the ground, her hips thrusting forward quickly. "Oh Gods! Mathis! Mathis!" She cried, her hips rapidly thrusting into his. "I need you! I need your seed inside me!" @OriginalMeta

Mathis felt a surge of pleasure wash over him as Elanor cried out for him. He could feel her body responding to his touch, her hips meeting his thrusts eagerly. As she begged for him to fill her with his seed, he felt himself getting closer to the edge. He leaned down to kiss her deeply, his hands roaming over her body as he continued to move inside her. "I'll give you everything you need, Elanor," he whispered against her lips, his thrusts becoming more urgent. With one final thrust, he felt himself reach the peak of his pleasure, his body tensing as he spilled himself inside her. He collapsed onto her, both of them breathing heavily as they basked in the afterglow of their passion. "Elanor...you are everything to me," Mathis said, his voice filled with sincerity. @Vava

Elanor maoned loudly, her hips bouncing up and down quickly with his, their bodies meeting with each thrust. She returned his kisses, her arms wrapped around his neck. "Mathis! Mathis!" Suddenly, her pussy began to spasm and her feminine essence splashed on their legs as she came. She screamed with pleasure, her cries muffled against his mouth. She felt the heat of his seed and it made her shiver and moan. As he collapsed onto her, she kept him close, her chest rising and falling quickly. She couldn't speak. She was so happy right now! This was strange! She had despised him not even a few days ago, and now... she was living her life completely in pleasure. She gave him a lazy weak smile. "Mathis... I wish to continue being... your everything." She brushed her fingers against his cheek, wiping away a stray bead of sweat. @OriginalMeta

Mathis smiled back at Elanor, his heart filled with joy and contentment. "And you shall be, my love," he whispered, caressing her face with his hand. "I never want to let you go." He leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips, his love for her evident in every touch. "You are everything to me, Elanor," he said softly, gazing into her eyes. "I never want to lose you." He pulled her close, holding her tightly in his arms. "I love you," he whispered, his lips brushing against her ear. "I will always love you." @Vava

Elanor blushed more as he called her 'his love'. This was honestly the first time she had heard him say such a thing, and it touched her heart. She leaned into his touch and she returned his kiss. He then said... he loved her, his words radiating through her. She gasped softly, shock filling her veins. "M-Mathis..." She quickly wrapped her arms around him and she pressed kisses against his cheeks and his neck. "I love you too." She wanted him to know how she actually felt. After everything... she felt as though she did love him. It was strange, but ever since he marked her, she felt this strong attraction to him, and the more he opened up to her, she couldn't resist him anymore. "I never expected that... I could feel this way for anyone." She whispered. "I'm glad I feel this way about you." @OriginalMeta

Mathis smiled and pulled her closer, feeling his heart swell with joy at her confession. "I never thought I could feel this way either, my love," he whispered back, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "But you've changed everything for me. I can't imagine my life without you now." He held her tightly, enjoying the warmth of her body against his, and he knew that he never wanted to let go. "I'll love you always, Elanor," he said softly. "Forever and ever." @Vava

Elanor smiled and nuzzled against him as he kissed her forehead. "I can't imagine my life without you either, Mathis." She was honestly surprised to say these words, because they were true. She had feared that perhaps she'd have to lie and force a smile everywhere she went in regards to this marriage. But, no, she never felt like she had to lie. She pressed another kiss to his lips. "I love you too, Mathis. Forever and ever." She repeated his words, letting him know that she truly loved him. There was absolutely no way she could lie to him. She lightly touched the mark on her neck, humming softly. @OriginalMeta

Mathis caressed her cheek, his gaze filled with adoration. "Thank you, Elanor," he whispered, his voice filled with sincerity. "Thank you for accepting me, for seeing beyond the facade, and for loving me despite everything." He placed a gentle kiss on her lips, cherishing the connection they shared. The mark on her neck served as a reminder of their bond, a symbol of their love and commitment. It held a significance that went beyond words. "Let's face whatever challenges come our way together, Elanor," he said, his voice steady and filled with determination. "With your love by my side, I feel invincible. Nothing can break us apart." They lay there in each other's arms, basking in the warmth of their love and the peace that enveloped them. Their journey had taken unexpected turns, but in that moment, they knew they had found their true solace and happiness in each other. @Vava

Blushing heavily, Elanor leaned forward and returned his kiss. "I feel the exact same way, Mathis. I...I didn't think we could be this way. But, now that I feel this way... there is no one I would rather feel this way for." She leaned forward and pressed her head against his, kissing him sweetly. "If someone told me... that I would be the wife of a wolfkin King, I would have called them insane. Now..." Elanor took Mathis's hand and she pressed it lightly against her mark, smiling softly, "There's no greater pride that I feel than being the queen of our people." She leaned up and pressed a sweet kiss to his lips, nuzzling up against him. "I love you, Mathis." She whispered once more. @OriginalMeta

Mathis smiled warmly, his heart swelling with love and gratitude. He intertwined his fingers with hers, feeling the warmth and strength of their connection. "I am grateful every day that our paths crossed, Elanor," he confessed, his voice filled with sincerity. "You have brought light and joy into my life, and I can't imagine it any other way." As their lips met, he savored the sweetness of their kiss, cherishing the tenderness between them. He felt her love and devotion in every touch, and it fueled his own feelings for her. With his free hand, he gently caressed her cheek, his gaze filled with affection. "And as for your father," he whispered, his voice tinged with a hint of curiosity. "Before we meet him, I want to make sure we've experienced all the joys and adventures that life has to offer. Is there anything in particular you desire, Elanor? Any dreams or desires you wish to fulfill? I want to share those moments with you, to create cherished memories before we face whatever lies ahead." @Vava

Elanor laced their fingers together, loving their connection. She hummed softly against their kiss. He was so tender and sweet, and being with him like this was a beautiful change that the somewhat neglectful connection this morning had been. He mentioned her father and she stiffened a bit. "I... Well, I truly want to be useful to you. My magic is still in need of some work, so I would like to try to harness it and get better at mastering my skills. You are trying to get back in touch with your wolven nature, so... Maybe my magic can help with that!" She took his hands in hers and pulled them to her lips, kissing them. "Would...Would you allow me to try to heal a small wound of yours?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis nodded, his eyes filled with understanding and support. "Of course, Elanor," he replied, his voice gentle and reassuring. "Your magic has already shown great potential, and I have no doubt that it can be of assistance in my journey to reconnect with my wolven nature. I trust you, my love." He watched as she kissed his hands, feeling a surge of affection and gratitude. "I would be honored to have you heal a wound of mine," he said, his voice filled with sincerity. "It would be a beautiful demonstration of our bond and the power of your magic. Choose a wound, no matter how small, and let your healing touch work its wonders." He offered her a warm smile, his gaze fixed on her. "I believe in you, Elanor, and I am eager to witness the depth of your magical abilities. Together, we will embrace our true selves and face whatever challenges lie ahead." @Vava

"Really? Oh, thank you, Mathis!" Elanor wrapped her arms around him tightly and pressed a kiss to his lips. He trusted her well enough to heal his injuries? That was so sweet! This was also the first time that anyone had ever truly wanted her to use her magic on them. No one in her kingdom was really willing to let her test her magic, and therefore, she wasn't able to practice a lot. She looked around at his body, searching for a wound. "Do you have any injuries that are not fully healed yet?" She asked softly, looking around his body to see what possibly injuries she could heal. @OriginalMeta

Mathis smiled at Elanor's enthusiastic response, appreciating her excitement and gratitude. He returned her embrace, holding her close as their lips met in a tender kiss. The warmth of her embrace and the sweetness of her kiss filled him with a deep sense of contentment. As she pulled away, scanning his body for a suitable injury to heal, Mathis concentrated, focusing his energy on his right forearm. Slowly, his claws extended, revealing their sharp and gleaming tips. With a controlled swipe, he created a shallow cut along his forearm, just enough to draw a thin line of blood. "I have a minor cut here," Mathis said, his voice calm and reassuring. "It's not fully healed yet, and it will provide an opportunity for you to practice your healing magic. Please, Elanor, use your powers to mend the wound." He extended his arm toward her, offering the cut for her to attend to. His trust in her abilities was evident in his unwavering gaze, filled with affection and belief. @Vava

Elanor flinched as he suddenly swiped his arm, his claws cutting the skin open just enough for a thin line of blood to appear on his skin. He offered her his arm, and she stepped forward. Taking his arm in her hands, Elanor lifted her left hand and she held her hand over the warm blood of his arm. She shivered, hiding her nervousness. What if this didn't work? What if she messed up and his wound never healed? How useless would that be? However, she shut her eyes, and she quietly began to chant in elvish. Her voice was soft, and as she chanted, her hand started to glow yellow. A thin yellow light began to spread over his arm, and slowly, ever so slowly, the cut started to heal. The wound sealed shut, but just before the pigment returned to his skin entirely, Elanor suddenly fell to her knees. She panted heavily, her brow lined with sweat and her hands shaking. There were now several thin pink lines on his arm, nearly completely healed wounds. "I...That is...all I can... do." She said weakly. "I...I'm sorry." Elanor looked down at the ground, feeling ashamed of herself. The wounds were not deep, and healing magic was not hard to handle! Why was she unable to master even a basic healing spell? Tears pricked her eyes as she braced herself for him to scold her. Why would he be proud of an elf who couldn't even master basic magic? @OriginalMeta

Mathis watched attentively as Elanor began her healing chant and her hand emitted a gentle yellow glow. He observed with fascination as the wound on his arm gradually closed, leaving behind only faint pink lines as a testament to the cut that had once been there. He was impressed by her progress, but his joy quickly turned to concern as he saw her suddenly fall to her knees, panting heavily and trembling. Rushing to her side, Mathis knelt down and gently placed his hands on her shoulders. "Elanor, it's alright," he reassured her, his voice filled with genuine care. "You did well. I am proud of you." He brushed a stray lock of hair behind her ear and wiped away a tear that had escaped her eye. "You mustn't be so hard on yourself. Healing magic takes time and practice. What you accomplished just now is a significant step forward, and I believe in your abilities. You're still learning, and that's perfectly fine. You have my full support." Mathis pulled her into a comforting embrace, holding her close against his chest. "Remember, Elanor, I fell in love with you for who you are, not just your magical abilities. You are kind, compassionate, and strong in ways that extend beyond the realm of magic. Don't let this setback discourage you. We'll work on it together, and I know you'll continue to grow and master your magic." He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, expressing his unwavering faith in her. "I love you, Elanor, and I'm proud to be by your side, no matter what challenges we face." @Vava

Elanor was surprised as he suddenly placed his hands on her shoulders and told her that he was proud of her. This was the only time someone had ever said that they were proud of her after she had used her magic. Her tutors and even her parents had believed that she was a poor performer through her magic, so hearing someone say they were proud was really amazing to hear. Each word that Mathis spoke made tears fall faster down her cheeks. Never in her entire life had anyone been so kind to her about her magic. All she had experienced was hate and humiliation. Now, her husband was saying that he was proud of her, and she had his full support. Elanor wrapped her arms around his neck and she hugged him tightly in return. "Thank you. Thank you so much, Mathis." She whispered, the tears running down onto his shoulder as she cried softly against him. "No one has ever...ever spoken to me so kindly after I healed someone. No one. Thank you so much, Mathis. I love you so much. I promise to get better. For you." She wanted to become a stronger magic user. She wanted to learn how to heal people better than she currently was. She aimed to heal larger injuries, especially if her husband ever got into a fight, such as this morning with Cole. Thankfully Mathis hadn't been hurt, but if he had, she wouldn't have been able to heal him. She needed to get better. "Do you have any magic users in your kingdom?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis held Elanor close, his embrace offering comfort and reassurance. He understood the weight of her words and the depth of her emotions, having witnessed firsthand the lack of support and understanding she had faced in her past. He gently stroked her back, his voice soothing and tender. "You're welcome, my love. It hurts my heart to know that you've never received the kindness and encouragement you deserved for your magic. But remember, Elanor, you're not defined solely by your magical abilities. You are so much more than that, and I love every part of you." He paused for a moment, collecting his thoughts before continuing. "In our kingdom, magic users are rare among the wolfkin. Our strength lies in our physical prowess. We are faster and stronger than most other races, and our connection to the wolf nature spirit grants us additional gifts. When we have the full blessing of the spirit, we possess the ability to shift into our wolf forms and experience regenerative healing." Mathis gently wiped away the tears from her cheeks, his gaze filled with sincerity. "But that doesn't mean we don't value and respect magic. We have great admiration for those who possess magical abilities, and your healing magic holds immense potential. While we may not have many magic users in our kingdom, we believe in the power of unity and the strength that comes from embracing diverse talents." He smiled warmly at her, his love evident in his eyes. "Together, we can nurture your magical skills and help you become the best healer you can be. And if there are magic users in our kingdom, I'm certain they will be more than willing to share their knowledge and support your growth. We'll find a way to learn and progress together, my dear." Mathis pressed a tender kiss against her forehead, his voice filled with unwavering determination. "I believe in you, Elanor. You have already shown incredible progress, and I have no doubt that you'll continue to amaze me. I love you with all my hea

rt, and I'm here for you every step of the way." @Vava

"It is alright, my love. I am here now. I believe that if I can harness my magic and get better at using it, I can be an asset." She listened as he explained that magic users were rare, but there were some. It seemed that the wolfkin did not dislike magic and that was good to know. There were some races that absolutely refused to accept magic into their cultures, and Elanor had feared at first that Wolfkin would be that type of race. However, Mathis seemed undisturbed with her magic, and he stated as such. Elanor smiled sweetly up at him, proud to have him as her husband. "Yes, together we will bring each other up to our full potential. I shall help you regain the ability to become a wolf once more. I give you my word, my love." She leaned up and kissed him once more, pushing all of her love and desire into it. She was honored to be a part of this journey with him. She took his hand and looked up as the sun began to set. "Should we head back? I worry they might send a hunting party to come find us." She chuckled. She was about to speak when her stomach rumbled loudly. "I think it is also getting close to dinner time." A thought suddenly crossed her mind. "Will...Will our people distrust me ever since this morning? With what happened to Cole?" She asked softly. @OriginalMeta

Mathis returned her kiss with equal passion, their love and devotion intertwining in that moment. He cherished her words and the promise she made, feeling a renewed sense of determination to embrace his wolf nature once more. With Elanor by his side, he believed they could overcome any obstacle. He nodded in agreement as she mentioned heading back, acknowledging the practicalities of the situation. "You're right, my love. We should make our way back before anyone grows concerned. And dinner sounds delightful." However, when Elanor expressed her concern about how their people might perceive her after the incident with Cole, Mathis's expression turned serious. He gently cupped her face, his eyes filled with unwavering support. "Elanor, you must never doubt yourself or your place as our queen. What Cole did was an unforgivable act, a direct offense against you, our kingdom, and our bond. I will not tolerate such behavior. Know that I've taken appropriate measures to ensure the safety and well-being of our people." Mathis's voice carried a hint of gravity as he continued, "Cole is currently in the cells, awaiting his judgment. His actions cannot go unpunished, and I intend to call for his execution. The safety of our kingdom and the sanctity of our marriage must be upheld." He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, his voice softening. "You have nothing to fear, Elanor. Our people will understand that your well-being and honor are of utmost importance to me. You are their queen, and they will see the strength and resolve within you. We will face any doubts together, side by side." Mathis held her close, his embrace offering solace and protection. "Never forget, my love, that I am by your side, and our love will guide us through any storm that may come our way." @Vava

Elanor's eyes widened as Mathis revealed that Cole would be executed. She quickly reached up, cupping his cheeks. "My love, please. Please do not shed any blood in my name. Especially against our own people. Yes, Cole did something truly heinous, but perhaps he can learn." She didn't want their people to think that she called for Cole's execution, and while that might have been selfish, she didn't want their people to start resenting her. She also didn't want them to think she forced Mathis to do this. "Please, my love. Do not kill Cole. I beg of you. Allow him one more chance to make things right." She wrapped her arms around him, holding him close. "We can lead our people with mercy. Mercy will show them that we are noy tyrants. I do not want our people to fear me, or us, and think that they will be subjected to execution just for speaking their minds." She couldn't handle if their people started to resent it. It would also mean that her safety was compromised, and while she did believe Mathis when he said that she was safe, she knew that she had to prepare and be safe. She had to ensure her people did not hate her. A hated ruler, was a dead ruler.

@OriginalMeta

Mathis listened to Elanor's pleas with a mixture of understanding and conflict. He saw the genuine compassion in her eyes and felt her desire to lead their people with mercy. The weight of his responsibilities as a king and the expectations of the wolfkin traditions pressed upon him. He held her gently, his embrace steady and reassuring. "Elanor, my love, I understand your intentions and your wish for mercy. Your compassion is one of the reasons I fell in love with you. However, it is important to consider the delicate balance we must strike as rulers." He took a deep breath, his voice tinged with the weight of his words. "In the wolfkin traditions, strength and unity are highly valued. Showing mercy in certain situations can be seen as a sign of weakness, and it may undermine our authority and the stability of our rule. Our people expect us to protect them and uphold justice." Mathis caressed her cheek, his gaze filled with love and concern. "I assure you, Elanor, I have considered all aspects of this decision. The judgment for Cole's actions has been discussed with the council and our trusted advisors. It is not a decision I make lightly." He paused, his voice softening. "However, I will take your words to heart, my love. Before the execution is carried out, I will meet with Cole once more and give him an opportunity to reflect and make amends. If he shows genuine remorse and is willing to atone for his actions, we can reconsider his fate." Mathis understood the importance of maintaining the respect and trust of their people. He pressed a tender kiss to Elanor's forehead. "We shall find the balance between strength and mercy, my love. Together, we will lead with wisdom and compassion, ensuring the safety and well-being of our kingdom." He held her close, determined to navigate this challenging path with her by his side. @Vava

Elanor bit her lip as Mathis explained that while he understood where she was coming from, Cole would still be put to execution. She felt... ashamed. But then again, that wasn't necessarily the word she would use. Perhaps, disappointed? She didn't want anyone to die in her name. Not unless they truly deserved it. She feared being hated and feared by her people, as she had heard plenty of stories about rulers that been risen up against due to their tyrannical misdeeds. However, Mathis shook her from her disappointment as he said that he would take her words into consideration and he would let Cole try once more to make amends before he carried out the execution. She wrapped her arms around him and kissed him, "Thank you, my love. That means the world to me. I believe that if Cole can make amends, we can show our people that death is not the only way. But, if he does not, then I will not stop his punishment. I respect your customs, I just... I can not see anyone die without allowing them one chance to make things right." With this being said, Elanor took his hand and headed back to the Wolf Kingdom. @OriginalMeta

Mathis held Elanor close, grateful for her understanding and her willingness to support him in upholding their customs and traditions. He cherished her compassionate nature and her desire to give others a chance at redemption. He walked alongside her, their hands entwined, as they made their way back to the Wolf Kingdom. The setting sun cast a warm glow over the landscape, reflecting the hope and determination they held in their hearts. As they approached the kingdom, Mathis couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility weighing upon him. He knew the challenges that lay ahead, both in maintaining order and in earning the trust and respect of their people. But with Elanor by his side, he felt a renewed sense of purpose and the strength to face whatever came their way. Together, they would strive to lead with wisdom, compassion, and a fair judgment. They would work towards a harmonious balance between strength and mercy, guiding their people towards a brighter future. And as they walked hand in hand, Mathis knew that with Elanor as his queen and partner, they would face any obstacles that came their way, united and unyielding. Their journey had only just begun, and the challenges they would encounter would test them in ways they couldn't yet imagine. But their love and shared vision for their kingdom would guide them through, shaping them into the leaders their people needed. As they entered the Wolf Kingdom, Mathis and Elanor prepared themselves for the path ahead, ready to face it together, hand in hand, bound by love, loyalty, and the promise of a better future. @Vava

Returning to the Wolf Kingdom, Elanor felt less insecure. She walked with a new sense of confidence, one that felt earned. But she kept her feelings to herself, as she didn't want to act cocky, especially when her new people were still rather wary of her. She kept a hold of Mathis's hand as they walked into the Kingdom once again. Mikalah came to them immediately. "Welcome back, Prime, My Queen. I take it you had a pleasant walk?" She glanced at a mark on Elanor's neck, not the one that revealed her partnership to Mathis, but another one from their earlier love making. Elanor blushed but made no attempt to cover it. No, she wanted people to see that she and Mathis had a connection. She only hoped they didn't think she was just after him for his looks. "It was a beautiful walk. Thank you. I believe...Mathis and I would like to speak to Cole." Mikalah visibly stiffened and she looked over at Mathis. "Are you...sure of this, Prime? Cole has not spoken a word since he was taken to the dungeons." @OriginalMeta

Mathis walked alongside Elanor, his hand firmly holding hers as they returned to the Wolf Kingdom. Despite the lingering wariness from some of the people, he could sense a newfound confidence in Elanor's demeanor. It pleased him to see her growing into her role as queen, and he knew she had earned it with her genuine care and determination. As they entered the kingdom, Mikalah, one of his most trusted advisors, approached them. Mathis nodded in acknowledgment of her presence. "Mikalah, it was a pleasant walk. Thank you for asking." His gaze met Mikalah's, and he continued, "We wish to speak with Cole. Despite his actions, we believe in giving him another chance to explain himself and seek redemption." Mikalah's expression displayed her concern. "Are you certain, Prime? Cole has not spoken a word since he was placed in the dungeons." Mathis nodded once more. "Yes, I am certain. We need to understand the reasons behind his actions, and it is important to offer him the opportunity to express himself, even if he has been silent thus far." With that, they proceeded to the dungeons, where Cole sat alone in his cell. His face held a mix of surprise and apprehension when he saw Mathis and Elanor approaching. Mathis unlocked the cell door, and they stepped inside. Cole looked up, his bitterness evident in his tone. "You came to gloat, I presume?" Mathis's voice was steady and unwavering as he replied, "No, Cole. We came to hear your side of the story. We want to understand your reasons for acting against us and the consequences of your actions." Throughout Cole's explanation, Mathis listened intently, trying to grasp the underlying motivations behind his actions. He assessed Cole's remorse, seeking to discern whether the man before him was truly regretful. In the dimly lit cell, Mathis found himself torn between his sense of duty to the kingdom and his desire for justice tempered with mercy. He knew the decisions they made today would have far-reaching consequences,

setting the tone for their rule. His thoughts were interrupted when Elanor stepped forward, her presence a calming influence. She spoke with a gentle yet determined tone, expressing their willingness to consider Cole's remorse and possible redemption. As Cole's words continued, Mathis observed the emotions flickering across his face. He remained stoic, contemplating the weight of their responsibility as rulers and the delicate balance they needed to strike. In that moment, Mathis realized the significance of their united front—himself as the king and Elanor as the queen. Together, they embodied the strength and compassion that their kingdom needed. Amidst shadows and uncertainties, Mathis and Elanor confronted the complexities of leadership, their shared love guiding them through the challenges that lay ahead. The choices they made today would shape their reign and define the path their kingdom would tread in the days to come. @Vava

Elanor and Mathis were allowed into Cole's cell and Elanor was not surprised by Cole's apprehension to them both. She listened to him explain his side of the story on why he lashed out so harshly. In his own words, Cole explained that he had been angry and assumed Mathis was trying to merge their cultures by giving in to the elves, rather than conquering them, which was how they always had done things. Cole would be considered old-fashioned, and Elanor could understand and respect that, but it was still difficult to hear how he had considered Mathis weak at first. He explained that when Elanor had struck him, he had lashed out to try to assert his dominance over her, and he understood that his behavior was not going to be tolerated. Taking a slow deep breath, he promised to not do it again, and to be onboard with their goals, so long as the elves respected their traditions and culture. Elanor nodded and smiled. It seemed that they had been able to clear this entire thing up rather efficiently, and she turned to Mathis. "My love," She took his hand and squeezed it lightly. "May we please release Cole now? I believe he has learned from this experience." @OriginalMeta

Mathis stood there, his gaze shifting between Cole and Elanor as the conversation unfolded. He could sense the tension in the air, but as Cole spoke and explained his perspective, Mathis tried to understand where he was coming from. The clash of cultures and traditions could be challenging, and he appreciated Cole's willingness to express his thoughts openly. When Cole admitted his mistake and promised to be more supportive of their goals, Mathis could see a glimmer of sincerity in his eyes. It was not an easy decision, but Mathis understood the importance of giving people a chance to change and grow. He turned to Elanor, feeling the warmth of her hand in his. Her support meant everything to him, and he knew they were in this together. Her request to release Cole showed her compassion and desire for unity, and he respected that. Mathis looked back at Cole, his expression serious yet understanding. "Cole, we hear your words, and we appreciate your honesty. We understand that change can be difficult, but we hope that with time, you will see that our unity can strengthen our kingdom rather than weaken it. As long as you remain committed to our shared goals and respect our culture as we respect yours, we are willing to grant you this chance." He paused for a moment before continuing, "However, let it be clear that any further aggressive actions towards my queen or our goals will not be tolerated. We seek unity and understanding, but we will protect our kingdom and our people." Mathis turned the key to unlock the cell door, and with a nod, he indicated that Cole was free to leave. "Consider this an opportunity for growth and reconciliation, Cole. We hope to build a united and prosperous future for all our people." As Cole stepped out of the cell, Mathis offered him a firm but friendly nod, acknowledging their agreement. He knew that navigating the complexities of leadership and cultural differences would be an ongoing challenge, but with Elanor by his side, he felt

a newfound sense of strength and determination. Together, they would lead their kingdom towards a better future, where understanding and unity prevailed. @Vava

Cole nodded and knelt down before Elanor and Mathis, "I give you my word, Prime and My Queen, I will never let this happen again. I promise to protect you both with my life and continue your goals." As Mathis allowed him to exit, he stood and bowed his head. He felt shameful, especially after attacking the Queen but being granted such mercy. Returning Mathis's nod, though his was more submissive, Cole quickly left the cell and the dungeon entirely. Elanor bowed her head in respect, granting Cole her approval and her forgiveness. She knew he would need that in order to begin his own healing process. "My love?" She asked, looking up at Mathis, "Is there anything further that we should do today? We will be meeting with my father tomorrow. Do we need to prepare anything before we do?" @OriginalMeta

Mathis observed Cole's words and actions closely, noting the sincerity in his voice and his genuine remorse. His promise to protect and support them, along with his acknowledgement of their goals, was a significant step towards unity. Mathis's nod to Cole was a sign of acceptance, a recognition that they were all working towards a common purpose now. As Cole left the cell, Mathis turned his attention back to Elanor, his hand finding hers once more. He could sense her compassion and wisdom in the way she handled the situation. Her forgiveness was a powerful gesture, one that showed their commitment to building bridges rather than walls. "There's nothing more to be done today," Mathis replied, his gaze focused on Elanor. "As for meeting with your father tomorrow, we should prepare ourselves mentally and emotionally. This meeting will be crucial in establishing our relationship with the elven kingdom. We must be clear about our intentions and aspirations for the unity of our people." He squeezed her hand gently, offering her a reassuring smile. "You have shown remarkable diplomacy and strength, Elanor. I have full confidence in our ability to navigate this challenge together." Mathis believed that with their unity, their determination, and their shared love, they could overcome any obstacle that lay ahead. Mathis considered Elanor's question, his thoughts reflecting on the upcoming meeting with her father. He understood the significance of this diplomatic interaction, not only for their personal relationship but also for the unity of their kingdoms. He glanced at the mark on Elanor's neck, the red imprint of their bond, a symbol of their newfound alliance. "In the world of the Wolfkin," Mathis began, his voice tinged with a mixture of reflection and sincerity, "diplomacy as you practice it, where understanding and cooperation are paramount, is a foreign concept. We are a people shaped by a history of conquest and domination. Our strength has always been our defini

ng trait, and showing any sign of vulnerability or compromise was seen as a weakness." He continued, his gaze softening as it met Elanor's. "Meeting with your father in this manner, discussing unity and collaboration, it goes against our traditions. But," he paused, his thumb brushing lightly over the mark on her neck, "you have changed me, Elanor. For better or worse, I cannot deny the impact you've had on me." Mathis's fingers gently traced the outline of the red mark, his touch tender and affectionate. "You've shown me that strength is not just about physical might, but also about the strength of character, understanding, and compassion. You've challenged me to see beyond the limits of our traditions and to embrace a future built on unity, even if it's unfamiliar and uncomfortable." He lifted his eyes to meet hers again, a mixture of gratitude and affection in his gaze. "So, as we prepare for this meeting with your father, I will carry your wisdom with me. And together, we will show both our kingdoms that strength can be found in unity, even among the most unlikely of allies." @Vava

Elanor took Mathis's hands and turned to look up at him as he explained that diplomacy and unity through discussions went against the typical Wolfkin traditions. That made sense to Elanor, especially given with how she had been taken in the beginning for this marriage. It hadn't been a civilized discussion. It had been due to losing a battle, or rather her soldiers had. Now, she was technically the price for that loss. Tilting her head lightly as he traced the mark along her neck, Mathis praised her and even told her that she had changed him. She smiled lightly, reaching up and brushing her fingers along his cheek. "I hope that this change is for the better, for both you and our people, Mathis." She didn't want to change him for the worse, or hurt his people or their traditions. Tearing apart traditions wasn't the Elven way. Most elves wanted to live in peace. Living amongst other cultures never bothered the elves, unless their own traditions were squandered and crushed. The first day she was here, Elanor thought that her traditions and culture would be destroyed. Thankfully, that did not happen, as Mathis was willing to learn with her. His praise filled her heart with joy and pleasure, and she couldn't stop the tears of joy that ran down her cheeks. She brushed them away and chuckled softly. "I believe that our meeting will be for the best. We can create unity and perhaps even discuss mingling our cultures. That will probably take more than just a single meeting, but it could be discussed. That's what I hope for our people." She looked out towards the window to see that the sun was setting. "We should head to dinner. I believe the travel to the Elven kingdom will take a little bit so we must depart early." @OriginalMeta

Mathis couldn't help but smile as he looked into Elanor's eyes, his heart warmed by her words and the affectionate touch of her fingers on his cheek. Her genuine desire for unity and understanding between their cultures had a profound impact on him. It was a far cry from the conquests and battles he had known all his life, and yet, it felt like a path worth exploring. "I believe it will be for the best as well," he replied with a soft nod, his fingers entwining with hers. "Our people have much to gain from this union, even if it challenges our traditions. Change may be uncomfortable, but it can also bring growth and strength." As the sun dipped below the horizon, he nodded in agreement with her suggestion to head to dinner and prepare for their journey to the Elven kingdom. "You're right, my love. We shall dine and rest for the night. Tomorrow, as we journey to your kingdom, we'll be taking the first steps on a new path, one that I'm beginning to believe will lead to a brighter future." With Elanor by his side, Mathis felt a sense of hope and optimism that he hadn't experienced before. They were embarking on a journey together, not just as husband and wife, but as partners working towards a better future for their people. It was a path filled with challenges, but it was a path they would walk together. @Vava

With their plan solidified, Elanor and Mathis headed upstairs to their bedroom after they had a delicious meal prepared. It had been just the two of them and Elanor was thankful for the privacy especially after making such a large declaration of peace and unity. Entering the bedroom, she couldn't help but chuckle to herself for a split moment. It was funny. Not even twenty four hours ago she was here, terrified and afraid for her life. Now, she was more confident than ever. She actually felt as though she was home! She went towards the bathroom. "I am going to wash up," She smiled at Mathis, silently inviting him to join her in the bedroom if he so chose. She walked into the bathroom and she shut the door just enough that she had a little privacy but open enough for Mathis to enter if he did decide to step inside. She stripped herself from her dress, thankful that the wolfkin allowed their women to wear dresses that didn't require so many straps, ties, belts, or clasps. Elven gowns could be so difficult to undress from, so having a dress that she could get in and out of herself was refreshing. She turned the tap on and hot water filled the large wash basin. Once the basin was ready, she stepped inside, moaning softly as the hot water soothed her skin. @OriginalMeta
