Darius was slightly shaky as he stood. "Then we'll continue, and finish completely."<br/><br/>Standing before her, nude as was she, Darius reached up gingerly with injured and the whole one. Turning her head gently, he leaned in and kissed each temple. "You belong to me now, and I value you for your wisdom that you may bring to my household."<br/><br/>Lowering his lips to her own, he gave a slow, deep kiss that ended with a little bite to her lower lip. "You, Gwenevere, belong to me now, and I accept your submission in our now joined lives." Taking half a step back, Darius cupped a breast in either hand, and gently kissed over her heart. "Your courage shall bolster my own when my body flags and my spirit crumbles. As we are now bound."<br/><br/>Dropping to one knee, then the other, Darius held her hips. A grimace flashed over his face as the burned hand cramped hard enough that he had to remove it and shake it. Quickly he replaced the hand, irritated at his body interrupting. Soft lips kissed her stomach just below the navel this time. "Your body is a vessel for our future sons, and your fertility will honor me." Warm breath washed over Gwen's hips as Darius' face moved lower.<br/><br/>Darius' mouth centered directly over Gwen's lower lips as he placed a kiss against the top of her clit's location. "You belong to me, as does your lust. You will honor me by meeting my own appetites whenever they arise, as I shall yours." Looking up, he smirked. "Repeatedly." Darius hands on her hips slid back over her ass, and then the back of her thighs. Scooting backwards once more, he leaned down and placed a kiss atop each of Gwen's feet.<br/><br/>"Last, and hardly least of all, you honor me with humility. I entrust you to keep me humble when needed, and uphold the honor in my devotion to you as my chosen mistress. Without these things, a bond between man and mistress means nothing." Placing his good hand on the marbled floor, he carefully push himself back up to a standing position. Arms wrapped around Gwen and pulled her close enough to press her bare chest against his. Darius was careful to avoid any of the tender areas as he held her there. Finally, he placed a searing, and highly possessive kiss against her lips for what seemed like hours before pulling away only to breathe.<br/><br/>"It is done."
