<span style="font-family:Quintessential">Xiu wouldn't say that she was afraid of him, but she felt herself on the edge of her nerves. Her grey eyes stared up at him with a certain amount of hope and when he gripped onto her chin she couldn't hide the fact that a gasp fell from her lips. He pulled her chin closer, and she was terrified that he would take something so precious to her. The idea of kissing someone she had only just met a few weeks prior made her nervous and as she looked away she could feel shame eating away at her shoulders. As soon as she felt his words pouring over her skin she bit down onto the inside of her cheek and she blushed gently as he pulled her closer, their lips meeting in a gentle yet firm embrace. As his arm snaked around her waist she felt her body grow slightly rigid and she reluctantly kissed him back. The young princess didn't understand what this would prove other than to give him what he wanted, but.. Somehow part of it felt right.<br/>
<br/>
She didn't realize how long she remained in his embrace, but she grew to like it more as time passed. Fingers gripped onto his robes and she pulled him closer to her as she kissed him greedily, breathing out heavily as her lips trembled. She felt her forehead rest on his chin as he whispered sweet promises of how he refused to let her maidenhood to be taken like a common whore, a dog, a common wench.. She was more than that.. At least for this she needed to be. Their lips met again and this time a whimper escaped her. She trembled and kissed him feverishly, not prepared for what was next to come. He had begun to lift her top and her eyes widened. Distracted, she felt her fingers tremble reluctant to stop him from seeing her porcelain skin. She swallowed hard as she looked up at him, seeing his true smile as he stared down at her. She couldn't help the stirring in her abdomen as she found his gaze and when he stepped forward, Xiu instinctively took a step back and fell on the bed. Her raven hair spilling across the bed spread she blushed and as she tried to push herself back up to sit he found her lips again.<br/>
<br/>
This time she moaned and felt his bare chest against her breasts. Another shiver made her lips tremble and it wasn't long until he had caressed her thigh. Everything appeared to be at her own speed and tempo and when he gently touched her inner thigh, Xiu whined softly. Her grey eyes seemed to grow bright as she stared up at him and she pulled away before her fingers gripped onto the sheets beneath her with a hidden grace. Her eyes held a certain truth behind them before her other arm snaked around his neck and pulled him toward her, speaking against his lips timidly. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"I-I... S-Say it again.."</span> The one thing that unraveled her was the name he chose to use for her.. Dark Princess. Even thinking of it now she wanted to hear him say it again.. To whisper it against her skin, and to coax more out of her than ever before.<br/>
<br/>
Xiu felt her knee bend off to the side and she blushed before meeting his gaze. There was concern and worry, but as soon as she felt his reassuring embrace she let out a deep breath, relaxing under his touch. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"I.. W-Will it hurt?"</span> Her eyes looked away and she felt the shame eat away at her before reluctantly meeting his gaze. She wanted to know, and she needed to feel his touch no matter her lack of experience. Lucien most likely knew based off of her reactions and she felt her eyes fall. A soft whimper escaped her before relaxing in his grasp. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"I.. J-Just promise to.. T-To warn me before.. Before you just.."</span> She was letting her nerves eat away at her and she hated it. She was bad at words and Xiu felt herself get frustrated, her form beginning to tense beneath her mentor.</span>
