Chapter 12: Breaking the Ice

After the game, the Dragon Slayers hit the showers to wash up. Sarah walked alone back to 'his' room to shower herself in private. However, she wasn't alone. Someone had been following her. Just as she was about to enter the room she felt someone wrap their strong arms around her waist and push her hard against the wall.

Before Sarah could react she felt warm lips pressed hard against her own. As soon as she felt the tongue entre her mouth and massage her tongue in a familiar fashion, all her fears washed away. Her hands instinctively wrapped his body. His chilling bare hands felt their way up her shirt and undid the contraption which held her breasts perfectly in place.

Sarah began to feel fear as she felt him undo her bra. He was going to try and fuck her. Panic rose in her. Flashes of the pain she went through ran through her mind. She didn't want to do it but she did at the same time. She felt so confused and worried.

She moved her lips away from his and mumbled no. Dilandau frowned and began to grope her breast tenderly, arousing her burning passion for him. Her mind was screaming no but her body was yelling yes! Unfortunately for her mind, her lust for him was so strong and they fell into a night full of blissful pleasure.

When morning came, Sarah cursed at herself. He had his way with her again and she let him! But it was different than the last time. There was more love put into it and didn't feel like something that was done out of a selfish need but an act of love. Sarah sat up in the bed and noticed he wasn't there again. *where is he?*

Her question was answered immediately as Dilandau walked out of the bathroom with only a towel around his waist. Sarah blushed as she thought of what was hidden beneath the towel. Dilandau noticed her blush and though he'd be nice and give her a little show. He untied the towel and let it drop to the floor and slowly got dressed. Sarah looked away instantly.

"Why are you looking away?" he asked cunningly. "Don't you want to see it? You've seen it before so why not now?"

"Because, it's not nice to stare." Dilandau chuckled.

"Well I want you to look." hesitantly she looked and couldn't remove her eyes. Her cheeks not only looked red but they burned red with embarrassment. When she realized what she had been doing, she looked away again quickly and shut her eyes. By the time she opened them again, he was pretty much dressed.

He walked over to Sarah and had a mischievous smile on his lips. He sat down on the bed placed a gentle kiss on her soft lips. "Your turn . . ."he murmured as he went to kiss her again but more deeply.

The words echoed in her head but didn't make sense until he had kissed her again. Confused, she broke away from the kiss and looked at him bewildered. "My turn?"

"Yes, now get out and change." Sarah didn't know whether to laugh or not. He had wanted her to change in front of him?

"No and any ways, I have nothing to change into." Dilandau stood up and walked over to the closet and took out a . . .dress? He then carried it to Sarah and gave it to her.

"Now you have something to change into." his grin only grew as she reluctantly took the dress.

"Why do you want me to change into this exactly?" she was trying to buy herself some time by asking stupid questions.

"There's a ball being held in Godishim, Freid tonight and we were invited."Sarah looked at him in shock. *Is he trying to ask me out on a date?* she couldn't help but blush a bit. *I guess he's just being nice in his own way.*

"Well, if we're going to a ball I need to wash up first." she grinned inwardly as she saw him make the cutest frown she'd ever seen.

Impatiently Dilandau waited for her to finish cleaning herself. He knew she was doing this on purpose. She was being a tease to him and she enjoyed it! He cursed her to hell and back but those curses came to an end as she emerged from the bathing room. The light hitting the droplets of water gave Sarah a heavenly aura.

Sarah blushed as her sapphire blue eyes met Dilandau's ruby red eyes. Both looked away immediately feeling embarrassed. *Okay, I can do this. All I have to do is get dressed. That's all, dressed.* Sarah kept herself focussed and tried to ignore the fact that Dilandau's eyes were on her.

No matter how hard Sarah tried, she couldn't ignore his watchful eyes. Then a wicked thought came to mind. A grin kept to her lips as she walked over to the dresser where her dress laid. She kept her back to Dilandau as she began to change. *Well, he never said I had to face him.* .

Dilandau sat annoyed on the bed. What was she doing? Why was she doing that? Why did she torture him like that? Those were all the question floating through his mind. *At least I gave a full show.* Dilandau looked away and pouted his lips slightly.

As Sarah slipped on the red velvet dress, she noticed Dilandau wasn't looking at her. He was off in a daze and stroking his right cheek. Sarah couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She didn't understand why she felt sorry but she just had the feeling that, that scar not only hurt him physically but mentally.

What Sarah did next was something she didn't understand why she did it. The only answer she could conjure up was that it had to do with them being soul mates. Quietly, she walked over to the bed and sat beside him. She brought her hand up and cupped his cheek. She shut her eyes and pressed her lips against his.

Dilandau's eyes widened at her touch and her actions. *What is she doing?* he gave himself a mental kick for thinking that. He stopped stroking his cheek and returned the kiss but more passion into it. Both of them felt like they were on cloud number nine. They were together and alone.
