<span style="font-family:Quintessential">The way that Lucius' hands felt on Xiu's form was sending her on heights that she didn't quite understand. The way he called her a Princess of Darkness held power in it and she felt herself chewing at her lower lip. Shutting her eyes, she could feel his breath on the back of her neck and a heavy breath escaped the smaller apprentice. She turned to look up at him and the redness in her cheeks was clear in contrast to her fair skin. As her grey pupils stared up at him she could feel a sudden touch beneath her breast and a gasp slipped past her lips. Suddenly she stepped backwards and felt the pillar against her back and she blushed more, hoping that her bangs would fall across her gaze.<br/>
<br/>
The way the invisible hand felt across her ribcage was intoxicating and as she broke eye contact, she looked down and whimpered beneath him. Her lips trembled as she let out a heavy breath when all of a sudden there was a caress at her inner thigh and she whined audibly. The more she tried to get away, she felt her back firm against the pillar and she looked up to find him staring intently at her. Lust had overcome her and Xiu blushed as she found his gaze, looking at his hand reluctantly.<br/>
<br/>
The more she hesitated the more she felt the touch and a whimper escaped her. "A-Ah!" She quickly placed a hand over her lips and she felt shame overwhelm her senses as she stood shakily on her own two feet. She took a step forward and as she tried to listen to him and his advice, she thought on how she would indeed become a woman of her own volition and her fingers reluctantly rested in his palm. <br/>
<br/>
Swallowing hard Xiu looked up at him for any sign of desire and although it was faint she could see something hiding beneath a shadow. Pulling his palm towards her, a sudden shyness overtook her nerves and she looked away as she felt his body close enough to feel her body heat. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"I.. I've never.." </span>Her shame was like a sleeve, apparent in her inexperience and she let out a sigh as her fingers rested against his chest.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff"> "I need.. To know that this isn't just.. Something to do. That.. That it might mean more."</span> Her eyes fell and she felt a tightness in her chest, and an uneasiness in her stomach. She needed this to mean something, because if it was purely for her training and nothing else she would never forgive herself for being so careless with something that meant so much.</span>
