Selentha waved goodbye to her partner as he smiled a gentle smile, lifting a hand in gesture of farewell before turning away with and swish of his robes. More than likely going to visit Seth or back to his chambers and sleep til Ra knew how long.The fleeting figure began to slowly blend in with the night and shadows of the columns surrounding the hallway.
Selentha let out a sigh, glancing around to see no one standing by the doorway. Baxton more than likely left. It wasnt a big deal, there were guards everywhere and she knew Ancrete would be here soon enough.
She sat down on the ledge next to a column, dipping her head back and closing her eyes as she basked in the moonlight.She flexed her fingers as they braced her from behind. Selentha stayed in the position for a few moments, letting her thoughts wander through closed lids. She parted pink lips, breathing in and out softly.It was a long day but now it came to a close. She smiled, slowly opening her eyes as she she sat up.
Standing up she lifted her arms and stretched. She leaned backwards,arching her back and rolling her hips forward as She made a small noise, puckering pink lips in a small smile of satisfaction. She outstretched her hands, smiling dreamily as she thought of the rhythmic music and familiar voice from long ago. She swayed her hips, closing her eyes and twirling.
Where was Ancrete anyway?She thought as she slowly stopped and looked around.

After having spoken to Baxton, and having revealed nothing of Selentha’s latest antics, Ancrete proceeded towards the east wing of the palace grounds. Basking in the crisp and cool night air, he slowly made his way up towards the priestess’ quarters wondering just how much more… interesting this day could get. As he began to see the moonlit clearing in front of the east building, he saw her.
Dancing under rays of white lunar light, she stole his very breath away. Her hair glittering in the night, her heart-shaped face showing elation, her clothes pulling up like wings behind her movements. Her whole body almost looked to be glowing with not just the moonlight shining upon her, but pale sunlight emanating from her very soul.
Simply captivated by her swaying, Ancrete could only watch in fascination. As his face softened with a look of peace, all he could think was, “Ra, what a magnificent sight…”
As Selentha slowed to a stop, opened her eyes and came back to earth, he came up with a mischievous little idea. She began to look around as Ancrete snuck up behind her and grabbed her from behind. Pulling her close to him, Ancrete softly whispered into her ear.
“Boo.”

A pair of large, tan hands grabbed her from behind, pulling her flush against another warm body. Her heart skipped a few beats as she squealed and squirmed her way but to no use could not escape.Her eyes were wide with fright as she hiccuped. A voice made her stop in her frantic escapade.
"Boo."
She froze, the blood slowly rushing to her cheeks as she turned slowly in the pair of arms to meet a pair of mis-matched eyes.Selentha blinked once. Then twice. Her eyes slowly went back to their normal level.
"An..Ancrete" she softly murmured, she looked up ay him shyly.Shaking her head she puckered her pink lips into a pout, narrowing silver-blue orbs at him.
"Ga..gah! How could you!?" she squeaked,"You know I get surprised easily" she huffed, smacking his chest lightly.
It took a few moments for her to realize that he still held her against him.His well-muscled arms wrapped around her tiny frame. His large hands balancing her hips, causing her to unconsciously roll them towards him. Her hands flat against his warm,hard- oh bad thoughts! Bad thoughts! She mentally screamed at herself, squriming slightly out of his arms and sitting back on the ledge of the hallway. She took a deep breath, holding a dainty hand to her chest as she took a few seconds to regain her composure.
Looking back at him, she patted the empty space by her and smiled slightly.

Hearing his voice she stopped squirming in his grasp and turned to face him. "An..Ancrete", Selentha had apparently decided to then become a sputtering mess. "Ga..gah! How could you!?" she squeaked, "You know I get surprised easily!"
Smacking his chest, she became suddenly silent as her cheeks slowly became increasingly rosy. Ancrete, realising her ‘discomfort’, wondered just exactly what thoughts were running through her mind, and upon her blinking and shaking her head furiously, decided not to ask. When she began squirming again, he let her go and watched her dash away to sit on a nearby ledge. As Selentha patted the empty space beside her, Ancrete obliged and took up the spot next to the priestess.
“Seeing as you’re out and about this late, you were obviously waiting for me.” Ancrete spoke, “So, do you mind telling exactly what you want to talk about?”

Seeing as you’re out and about this late, you were obviously waiting for me.” Ancrete spoke, “So, do you mind telling exactly what you want to talk about?”
Selentha froze,glancing over as Ancrete sat beside her. Her cheeks flamed up as she silently gulped. Wasnt this where she was suppose to work up the courage and tell him? She turned quickly to face him, her hands resting in her lap as they held onto her robes tightly.
"No, I just wanted to sit here for a bit and gaze up at the moon.." she smiled dreamily as she ran her fingers through her blonde hair,"Isnt it so beautiful? I mean...Ra is very gorgeous too but...the moon always seems to be connected to me too, not through my priestesshood either." She glanced over in his direction.She felt speechless,he looks so hansome. The way his left golden eyes glimmered and his right glowed an eerie crimson, so much like blood. His face had some many sharp angles like Baxton, her heart tightened. His hands were so large compared to her own and so well shaped.If she were light some of the artistians here she would have loved to draw them or scuplture them, heck, even his whole being was perfect. She let out a sigh.
She smiled over at him,"You know whats fun? Dancing in the moonlight or even the rain..." her eyes softened their gaze as she gazed back out into the courtyard,"My adopted mother use to do that with me, Baxton always stay under the shelter to avoid getting wet." she giggled. Hopping down onto the grass, she twirled, laughing as she closed her eyes. Robes twisting with her and blooming out. She rolled her wrists and swayed with the silent melody.
Slender fingers reached out to the sky. Stoping; she arched back, smiling as she extended her hands to him before lifting towards her lips and brushing them down her body.Selentha gazed at him longingly for a moment before standing back up straight. Lifting her robes, she walked to the fountain, placing her feet in the cool water. She giggled and kicked up water childishly.
"Ancrete come on over!" she waved,"I'll dance moreee plleaase?" she gave him huge puppy-dog eyes.

Selentha looked over at Ancrete with a look of… fear? Before he could say anything, Selentha quickly said, “No, I just wanted to sit here for a bit and gaze up at the moon...” she gazed at the white orb as tough she were in a daze. “Isn’t it so beautiful? I mean... Ra is very gorgeous too but... the moon always seems to be connected to me too, not through my priestesshood either.”
She turned to face Ancrete and stared intently at him, and though it piqued his curiosity, he could was helplessly drawn into her gaze. Her eyes, a brilliant blue, made him feel as though he were staring into an endless sea. The longer it went, the more he felt as though he was drawing ever closer to her soul. But then she sighed and broke the trance she unknowingly had him in.
As she smiled at him, she remarked, “You know what’s fun? Dancing in the moonlight or even the rain...” she turned to the courtyard as she continued, “My adopted mother use to do that with me, Baxton always stayed under the shelter to avoid getting wet.”
Giggling, she hopped down to the fountain in the middle of the courtyard, and after hopping in, she splashed around a bit and turned to offer her hand to Ancrete. ‘She’s not going to do what I think she is, is she?’ She yelled out to him, “Ancrete come on over!” ‘I knew it, but she’s not serious, is she?’ “I'll dance moreee plleaase?” ‘No. No way. Never. I’m not going to-’
She gave him the puppy dog eyes.
And as he registered the fact, he came to the realization that he lost. ‘…Damn it.’ “Alright, I’ll do it.” As he stepped onto the cool grass, he noted how the cool night air was contrasted by the warm earth, and as he stepped into the fountain, he noticed how clear the reflection of the night sky was in the pool of water. He stepped up to Selentha, took her hand, and to some music that was never played, nor heard by any but the two…
They danced.
Holding her close, Ancrete and Selentha slowly swayed under the moon and stars both above and below them. As he danced with her, a myriad of thoughts swarmed his mind, but only two poked through. Despite all the strength others said he had, despite his courage, he was brave enough to give voice to one.
He stopped dancing to hold her close to him, tight against his frame, her face facing his… or at least his chest. With both of them like that, Ancrete looking right at Selentha, who had no chance to escape, he asked.
“Selentha… What did you want to tell me?”

"Alright, I’ll do it"He replied in defeat as he slowly walked over to where she stood in the fountain. Silver-blue eyes sparkled as she smiled in glee as shw watched him take off his sandles and step in.
What caught her off guard though was when he pulled her close. She blushed, looking up curiously into mis-matched orbs. She blinked before slowly smiling warmly. She swayed her hips and closed her eyes, enjoying the feeling of her hands against his warm chest. She sighed dreamily, eventually laying her head where her hands were. Truly a perfect moment. Her thoughts of intwined fingers and parted lips were evaporated when she heard his deep,rich voice ask the question she completely forgot about. Her had stopped swaying, his arms hugging her frame to his body. She couldnt move, all she could do was raise her head.
“Selentha… What did you want to tell me?”he asked curiously, gazing down at her as she continued to stare at his chest with wide eyes.
Slowly she looked up, her cheeks the color of budding roses. Selentha bit her bottom lip as she looked away,"Have you ever felt like you wanted to tell someone something but couldnt? well...thats the thing..." she paused, looking down as she suffered an inner turmoil. It was now or never. He had her and so she was trapped.
"Ancrete......for...a time now..I.........." she looked back up, unshed tears glittered her eyes,"I-...I...I love you" she continued to hold his gaze in determination.
She didnt have a chance. She was a High Priestess! He would rather someone like the maids..they were all beautiful. She was a freak..lightly tanned..blue eyes...And she already gave her treasure away to her partner..but then again it was for duty. But she was still weird..she had powers.

As Ancrete asked, Selentha blushed and looked away as she responded, “Have you ever felt like you wanted to tell someone something but couldn’t? Well... that’s the thing...” she hesitated. He was nervous, extremely so.
"Ancrete......for...a time now...I.........." Selentha looked slowly up at him, eyes shining with tears about to overflow, “I-...I...I love you"
Ancrete studied her face; Selentha had a look of determination, happiness and fear. He figured that she had mustered all of her courage to do this, was happy that she could voice her feelings, and probably terrified of rejection. Ancrete thought about that last thought and before he could finish thinking said, “You’re a real idiot aren’t you?”
Selentha looked up at him with a look of hurt and confusion.
“I mean... what are you crying for? You should be able to tell that I love you too. Idiot!”

“You’re a real idiot aren’t you?”
Selentha felt her heart start to break, tears welled up in her eyes as she gripped her robes tightly, her knuckles turning white. She was about to stand up and leave when he continued.
“I mean... what are you crying for? You should be able to tell that I love you too. Idiot!”He exclaimed, staring hard at her as a slow smile touched his lips.
Selentha forgot how to breathe at that moment.
She sobbed, smiling through the tears as she slapped him playfully on the chest. "Im not an idiot! I just thought it was just your duty to be nice to me..." she glared and hiccupped.
Selentha buried her face in his chest, sighing deeply as she wrapped her arms around his waist, hugging him tightly.
"Ancrete...." she smiled and looked up at him as she leaned up, her lips only a breath away from his.
"...cant catch me" she whispered and pushed away from him, running away as fast as she could with no sandles. The wind whipped by her, her laughter like bells tolling in the night as she held her robes.

She sobbed with a big smile as she slapped his chest and exclaimed, “I’m not an idiot! I just thought it was just your duty to be nice to me...” Ancrete couldn’t help but chuckle at how wrong she was about that.
"Ancrete...." She looked up at him and drew closer, Ancrete slowly being drawn into her, his thoughts disappearing from his mind.
Until she whispered, "...can’t catch me." She pushed away from him and broke into a sandal-less run. He instantly gave chase, finding fun in trying to catch her and listening to her wonderful laughter as usual.
“Get back here you little nymph!” Ancrete laughed as he chased the priestess across the palace grounds.
“You’re mine now!”

“Get back here you little nymph!” Ancrete laughed as he chased the priestess across the palace grounds. Selentha squeaked, skidding to a stop when she reached a dead end. Turning around she saw Ancrete drawing closer.She was a trapped Priestess now. Think.Think.Think! What could she do?
Shit.
“You’re mine now!”He grinned, his eyes shining victoriously.
An idea formed in her head as she braced herself.
She stuck her tongue out before dodging him and running back to her room. She eventually stopped holding her robes as was running to her goal. Her room.
The gods didnt seem to want this to happen as she stumbled a bit reaching her door as she tried to open it. Her laughing breathless and hair wind-blown. Her hands fumbled with trying to unlock the double doors. Who thought of this anyways? She braced herself against the door, knowing she was more than likely going to get caught.

Ancrete had figured out her final destination and had instead of simply chasing her there, decided on a little surprise for her. He took a detour which led him around the East wing of the palace and, with a running start, sailed straight through a window which allowed him access to the door.
He heard Selentha on the other side, frantically trying to open the door to this room, her chambers, and Ancrete walked up and the priestess fell on him as he opened the door.
As she looked up at him with shock and surprise, he drew nearer to her. Their faces came closer to each other, his senses almost being overcome with everything about her. The scent of her hair, the sound of her short breaths, the feel of her heart beating fast, and when their noses were almost touching, her eyes filling his vision, he whispered.
“I caught you.”

Her fingers fumbled the door as she glanced behind her to see if Ancrete was any closer. Not seeing him, she swung open the door as she ran straight into Ancrete's chest. Her breath hitched and silver-blue orbs went wide with surprise as he pulled her against him.
Ancrete smiled, the door closed with a soft click. Her heart hammered against her chest as she stared into his own mis-matched orbs. Their noses were barely touching as he softly murmured,"I caught you".
Her cheeks flushed as she slowly closed her eyes, her hands trembling as they reached up and touched his cheeks. She leaned up to close the space and brushed her lips over his.

She closed her eyes and closed the distance between them, her lips brushing over his. He felt her almost electrifying touch and couldn’t help but brush back against hers. Not even a moment later and he felt the need to have those lips and it was taking every last bit of restraint to keep him from simply seizing them. Caressing her cheek and firmly gripping her waist, pulling them even closer together, he lifted her chin and kissed her.
With that, everything began to unravel.
His senses were completely isolated from everything but her, unable to take in the world, and filled completely by her existence. He was beginning to lose rational thought and was now running on instinct and emotion, thoughts without understanding, yet still directing his every movement. The pulled apart after what must have been an eternity, and amongst all of this he could only breathe out...
“Selentha... I love you....”

His lips brushed her lips back as she gave a small shiver of delight. She smiled through half-lidded eyes when he pulled her flat against him. Selen gave a soft gasp of surprise to feel her breasts crushed against his chest and her legs pressed with his own.
He lowered his head down again, his hand caraessing her cheek and other hand gripping her waist. Ancrete's lips sought hers. Selentha's fingers tangled in his hair, pulling away slowly after awhile from him as they both took their own breaths of air.
“Selentha... I love you....”he whispered huskily, his mis-matched eyes glowing softly as he stared at her intently.
Tears spilled down her flushed cheeks as she smiled, sliding her hands to cup his face as she pulled him closer again,"As do I Ancrete, as do I...." she softly replied before kissing back passionately. She sighed softly into the kiss.
It was intoxicating to kiss him, but she couldnt get enough.
