Shadow Mari, having regained control, hoped Dumas wouldn't notice anything and start asking questions. She just expected to get on with her plan. Now that they had gotten the issue of her virginal state out of the way, she felt more comfortable. The two Maris had very different reasons for that situation. Shadow Mari was busy with more important matters. Mari, on the other hand, was a romantic, a dreamer. She dreamed of having her first time with someone she loved and care about.<br/><br/>"It's okay, darling. I can handle it", was Mari's answer when Dumas cautioned that it could hurt a little. When he said he would be gentle, Shadow Mari almost laughed. She controlled herself, though, and took a deep breath. Biting her lower lip, she nodded. "I know you will, darling. I know you'd never hurt me."<br/><br/>When Dumas's fingers trailed down her spine, Mari let out a soft chuckle. She had always been ticklish, but that felt different and better. Another chuckle came out of her lips when he teased her. Winking at Dumas, Mari smiled. "Don't laugh. I'm not sure how to do this", she whispered, before placing her hands on his chest and lowering herself slowly, with a soft moan indicating a bit of pain.
