				Spring 1752<br>The Carolinas<br><br>Twilight. The wondrous heavens&nbsp; were a rich purple hue shadowed by the new growth of leaves on the budding and blossoming trees. The rich heady scent of magnolias lingered in the warm air, and stirred with the gentle breezes to taunt the senses out from a slumberous state. Listlessly, languidly, Miss O'Meara lounged on the supple black leather seat of the carriage feeling the jolting of the horses, and listening to the repetitive clopping of hooves on the hardened dirt road that tempted to lull the young woman into sleep. The cool even breeze that stroked and caressed her delicate pale skin kept her awake, however, that, and the dull memory of conversation that was held at Jack Atherton's dinner party. <br><br>Jack Atherton was fifteen years her senior, and a man that Miss O'Meara was expected to marry, and before she could refuse that arrangement, for truly no proposal was made, the announcement of their engagement had been spread across polite society. In wishing to be the obedient daughter, and in wishing to continue living a comfortable lifestyle, the young woman of eighteen years of age simply grew used to the idea of marrying Mr. Atherton. For the most part, she easily could endure him so long as she never voiced an opinion of great importance that could start a scandal, or worse, an unseemly argument between the couple, and too, although Mr. Atherton could be ruthless in reputation, he was still an attractive man.&nbsp; That in itself was preferred, after all, it would make bearing his children far more tolerable. <br><br>A noise of disgust left the young woman's throat. She remembered that Mr. Atherton wished for boys, as many as she could produce, and regularly they had that discussion, and regularly while having that discussion, she nervously twisted that large emerald ring on her slender finger, a symbol of their engagement, as if trying to pry it off with gentle force. Now, she caught herself toying with it, and as she focused on her hand, focused on the ring, but the carriage abruptly stopped and she slid off of the seat and tumbled onto the floor. Her silvery blue skirts billowed about her as if she was lodged in a fluffy cloud.<br><br>&nbsp;“Sweet Jesus, Mary and Joseph!” She spat out in a whisper, and looked at her soiled skirts that were now dusted with debris and find sand. Gingerly, her fingers touched her skirts, but soon voices distracted her, and she cautiously opened the door to peer out of the carriage. In the twilight, her eyes could barely see her driver even though there was an oil lamp hung on the carriage near him, and then there was an outline of a darker form against the wooded area, and one that pointed a pistol at her driver.<br><br>&nbsp;“James,” She barely breathed out into the night air, addressing her driver whom was practically her own age, and employed by her family for years, &nbsp;“Do not be foolish, nor brave, and give this gentleman what he wishes.” Teagan told him, and the settled onto the seat on her carriage, but not before closing the door. She made no attempt to lock it for she saw little point of it.

				Spring 1752<br>The Carolinas<br><br>James Elroy stood at the corner of the magnolia's, the smell of them invading his nostrils. The smell not inviting nor repulsive, not that he had much time to think on it. His finger tensed around the trigger to his pistol, the clip-clop sound of hooves approached. He fingered the expensive pocket watch he had stolen from a previous merchant, smiled, right on time.<br><br>He had been stalking this young woman and her carriage for two weeks now, she was a beauty.. love at first sight for James almost. "Hmm.. Stand and Deliver!", James' pistol stared at the carriage driver, as the door opened after about a minute of after the carriage stopped he smiled. "Get off..", the driver nodding and dodging away, James grabbed his knife and set the horses free before he grabbed the carriage door. "Hmm mylady..", he was dressed in dark earth clothes, though rich in fabric. His pistol tucked into the belt, knife in an wristguard. The twilight behind him as he took his first step into the carriage.

				In the darkness, Teagan sat alone and pondered the new circumstances that was now set upon her, and little could she do but flee into the night, wander and become lost; the wooded area was thick and untamed, and it held little desire. She cared not to become lost, and waste away in the forest, and become harassed by animals. Her driver, James, however, did not have that fortune as she heard the few words exchanged, and with luck, she saw James dart through the nearby trees to vanish from her sight. Only then did the carriage rock, jiggle, and with the reins cut, and the horses set free, the young woman was now utterly alone with the gentleman of the road; many of them were mere cutthroats and bandits, not gentlemen at all. Anxiety crept through the young woman, and her mouth became instantly dry while beads of water, sweat, formed on her delicate hands.<br><br>Miss O'Meara's breath caught in her throat, gasping at first, as the carriage door swung open, and there he appeared in his dark clothes that blended into the earth's surrounding. Teagan smoothed her hands over her skirts, wiping the beads of sweat away, yet it did little for the nervous warmth that flooded through her slender being. &nbsp;“Shoo! ” She snapped out at him, startling herself, and she brought her closed fan down upon his knuckles that held open the carriage door. She dismissed him with a simple hand gesture, and then sat straight, proper, on the edge of her seat and gazed out the other window awaiting for help for eventually somebody would discover them. She sniffled.

				James stared at the young woman sitting in her carriage, then growled as she smacked her fan across his knuckles. Actually breaking skin on one of them, grabbing his saber he pulled it free from the scabbard. "Now.. that was not smart mylady, I wanted to simply let you go.. now..", he eyed her slender young body, god she was so beautiful. So nice to look at, a perfect young bride. He held the saber tip pointed towards her as James himself sat down in the other side of the carriage, "I presume I need no introduction?"

				From the corner of her eyes, she watched the man sit opposite her, the long coat clinging to the shadows of the night, and the blade of his sword glistened in the dim, dull light. Her only reply to that was to flick open her fan, and feign interest in him by gazing out at the merciless night that surrounded them. &nbsp;“Hardly do you wish to let me go,” the young lady replied, her Irish accent was softly combined with that of the Carolina, &nbsp;“after all, you made my poor driver James flee from his station in fear, and you set the horses free. I would think that abandoning a lady on the road is intent to set her free. Lying is unseemly, Sir, necessary at times, but unseemly.” She leisurely fanned herself, and then cast a sidelong look at him. &nbsp;“And indeed, you need no introduction for you are the central gossip amongst the people, especially the ladies, and I understand not. You are nothing but a brash thief preying on helpless women. It is hardly a reputation I would wish for if I were a man.” She closed her fan, and turned to him, finally gazing upon him; her legs, she crossed underneath the multitude of skirts. &nbsp;“Forgive me if I think your kind introduction does not warrant an exchange of names, Sir.”

				The man smiled in the light of the dim night, he liked the way the young woman spoke to him. "You are quite haugty for the position you are in little woman..", he smiled and placed his rapier down besides him before he stood. Flicking out his knife, the blade was marked with twenty marks, "Those where all virgins.. perhaps you can be twenty-one.. Mylady?", her body was exquisite and so pure.. hmm his final one. Such a good mark.

				Miss O'Meara gingerly leaned back in her seat, yet she remained properly upright, stately, elegant, and a smile blossomed on her lips even though her mouth dried within from the nervousness of the blades. Desperately, she tried to remain composed, calm, as she glanced at the knife, the markings upon it. &nbsp;“Fiddlesticks!” Teagan called forth, trying to dismiss him, and she glanced out at the night, up at the stars that glowed through the leaves of the trees that covered the dark heavens. &nbsp;“I am not the one who will apologize for my behaviour in this circumstance, Sir,” &nbsp;Teagan informed him, and gently she touched his hand to push the knife away from her, &nbsp;“that I reassure you.” Her boldness, or foolishness as her father so often called it, plucked forth within her. &nbsp;“Now, you put that knife away before you hurt yourself and draw blood upon my gown. It is a tedious thing to wash out of a garment, Sir.” She idly began to fan herself once again, yet this time, heat rose within her body from nervousness and anxiety.

				James grabbed the fan within a single motion of his hand and tossed it out the carriage window, "I doubt it will be so easy, Mylady, and today.. it is your blood that will be spilt..", he came over the carriage now to her. Grabbing the young woman's shoulder, roughly shoving her against the back of the carriage. His knife flashed towards her shoulder strap, she felt it hug.. then cut through. "Your not wearing a corset are you dear?", he asked, the larger man now having taken to sitting on Miss O'Meara's lap, well best he could. His smell wasn't that well washed and it would certainly make the young woman gag with him being this close up to her.

				With Miss O'Meara's favourite fan disposed of, with the strap to her gown cut, and on feeling the cold blade against her warm skin, the young woman drew in a startling deep gasp which was exhaled violently into a panting gasp. She whimpered slightly, a noise that was soft in her throat,&nbsp; as his weight upon her became heavy and unbearable, or at least his stench was unbearable; she coughed and held back the vile that wanted to spew forth. She shifted, trying to squirm from him, further pressing back onto the seat of the carriage as if her back could burrow through the seat and make for an escape.&nbsp; Clearly, it was not to be, and her politeness, her kindness, fled from her.<br><br>&nbsp;“Get off of me!” She slapped his head; she could not clearly see his face from the high collar of his long coat, from his scarf that draped around his neck and stole upon his face, and shadows from his tricorner hat blurred his appearance. &nbsp;“Jesus, Mary and Joseph! You stink like a dead swollen pig in summer heat! Now get off or I'll be boxing your ears especially if you think you're going to be spilling my blood! You thieving bastard!” Her temper flared, her accent of her homeland thick upon her words, and her hand balled into a small fist and struck his ear. &nbsp;“Shift and get off, you hooligan!”

				James chuckled as he was smacked across his face, the scarf fell from infront of his face, his rough face was exposed. His three day year old beard giving him a scraggly and unwashed face, just like most of the rest of him. His eyes stared down at the young frightened young woman. The following comment had him laughing even louder, but his laughter turned to a grunt and a growl, his hand moved quickly towards her young neck. His gloved fingers pressed in, "That little lass.. was not smart", eyes glared into her. He backhanded her across that young sweet face as well, then pulled her back up with a quick jerk on her hair. "I don't suggest you do that again.. I don't want to mar such a pretty beauty.."

				The young woman's breathing fell into short struggling pants as the highwayman pressed his fingers into her slender neck, and fright, perhaps even horror, took hold over feminine form; the laughter prior to was unsettling, but this was cruel as well. No doubt she would bruise, her skin being delicate, and then when his hand struck her, she cried out in pain. A sharp sting burned and reddened into her pale skin, and as he manipulated her body by tugging on her hair, the beautiful silken ash tresses carelessly tumbled free; the wild mop of loose rich curls fell about her shoulders, and gingerly she touched her mouth where she tasted blood. &nbsp;“Very well then.” She whispered in a breathy pant, and then looked at her fingers, and her blood upon them. &nbsp;“Take what you wish, and be done with me.”

				James stared at the young lass, shaking his head. "Where is your fire lass, you where full of it. Don't be frightened by blood.. this is what you have wrought. I only give what you sow", he smiled and touched her slender young neck almost lovingly now, when she stared she could feel the coarse hairs across her cheek. Then her neck, his hands softly running over that young body. She had some strength and it was nice to feel such things, a good well kept woman of irish descent.

				Teagan held her breath as she felt his rough calloused hands stroke and caress her supple unblemished skin that was perfumed lightly of roses. No man had ever touched her, not even her future husband, and the sensation was foreign, strange, and deep within her, she knew she must and would deny the highwayman, yet too, the caress gave her tingles that danced along her spine that she adored, and did so with deep seeded loathing. &nbsp;“And fires can be easily extinguished as they can be sparked.” The young woman whispered, and in the dim light of twilight, she studied his scruffy face that easily could have been handsome. &nbsp;“But if it is fire you wish for then you best ignite a spark,” She murmured, and leaned in to kiss him, deeply; she held her breath, something that was impossible, and as she struggled for air, she bit him on the bottom lip. She could taste more blood in her mouth, and a smile, one that was elegant, adorned his lips. &nbsp;“Is that plenty of fire for you?”

				James saw in Teagan's eyes the same trembling that he had seen in other's yet this young woman still held strongly to her virtues, it brought blood rushing to other parts of his body, for now still yet unseen. Then as his face hung before hers he suddenly felt those pair of sweet youthfull lips on his, her coppery blood in his mouth and then with a sharp tinge of pain his own. He gasped, yet allowed it, staring at Teagan. "Hmm.. that's the fire my dear lass, now.. your name was?", his gloved fingers where now rough and calloused indeed across her fair skin. One hand reaching behind, checking to see if she were wearing a corset. If so he'd untie it.

				It was not Teagan's first kiss, those belonged in memories of Jack Atherton, and those were chaste and seemingly innocent, and by far the kiss she gave to the stranger was anything but that. It made her oddly flushed and heated, made her long for another kiss. It was sinful indecent temptations with the stranger, surrounded by nothing but the isolation of night; all too well she understood the allure of the highwayman that women whispered about, yet she composed herself even if briefly. Black leather gloves glided along her soft skin, and for a moment she closed her eyes and suddenly met his gaze. &nbsp;“A name? Hardly is that appropriate, Sir, but then speaking of morals or sin will do your soul of little use, would it? If you must know of a name, you may call me Teagan.” She told him as he felt his hand upon her back searching for the ties of the corset she wore, and in a bold and saucy move, she lowered his hand where the bodice met the skirts.<br><br>&nbsp;“Yes, to answer your other question that you inquired of beforehand,” She smiled, coyly, &nbsp;“And to fit me perfectly, Sir, you will find that all my garments to my gown are hand stitched into place so that the dress fits as it should.” Teagan dared to say, and indeed, it took her maids hours to sew her into the dress.

				James nodded softly at the young woman, he could almost feel the beat of her heart in the tight carriage, in there tight embrace. He slowly slipped off her, "Don't run Teagan.. instead go off the bench and turn around.. young lass", his hand cupped the hat and placed it on the bench beside him. His dirty blonde hair lined his shoulders, there was a definite rough mark. The cut across his face, but for the rest he was handsome.. if a little scruffy. He was smiling, waiting softly.

				Mindful, Teagan paid heed to the words of the highwayman, and watched him shift, slipping off of her. For a moment, the young woman wished to run, to flee, yet those woods were not inviting nor was the idea of being shot or sliced open by a blade. All the same, with such poor choices, Teagan found herself with her back turned to the gentleman of the road and pondering his intention. She glanced down and stared at the leather bench. &nbsp;“Are you not afraid of them hanging you?” &nbsp;She asked, her hand barely touching her throat as if feeling a noose around her slender neck. &nbsp;“All them people willing you swing from a rope, cheering for it, hoping you burn in the depths of hell? Ghastly business that is,” Teagan drew silent with the morbid thoughts.

				Being easy to stand James stood up behind Teagan, his male body pressed against her back for a moment, his fingers, now ungloved at one hand, stroked across her belly. Wanting to feel her tremble, to smell her hair again. "I don't fear death my dear.. I don't fear those fools.. they dare not invade the woods. I alone do that. And I alone know where I rest my weary head..", he whispered into her ear, his voice rough as was he. Then he took a step back, starting to work on the corset knotting, pulling them free with ease. "I have had sisters..", he said with a smile, before Teagan could ask him why he did this so easily..

				Teagan wrinkled her brow as he whispered in her ear, her body shivered as she listened to him, and too, his breath smelled of stale ale and smoke which made her turn her head ever so slightly. It only exposed the length of her neck, and then on feeling his hand roam across the flat of her belly, one that had feasted on sweet chocolate that very night, she pushed his hand aside dismissing it. &nbsp;“Mind your hands! They aren't fit to be upon my gown let alone me,” She quickly said, her voice chiding, and then she laughed. &nbsp;“Sisters? And did they mind your filthy hands upon their good garments? Or ever wonder what devil possessed their brother from taking their whalebone corsets? Tis strange, mind you, I have heard of worse stories, but being of polite society, I do try not to dwell in the private lives of others.”

				James liked her wit, her retort, he smiled "No.. I often helped my sisters with there dresses.. but that is not where we were. That was the past.. this is now. With you here.. your smooth skin..", he leaned in, the smell of his breath growing in Teagan's nostrils as he suddenly kissed her neck deeply, his hands having carefully pulled all the knots and ropes free, her corset feeling very loose now. James smirkingly returned his hand to Teagan's belly, rubbing it very softly.

				&nbsp;“Like a man, to be full of excuses,” Teagan whispered when he dismissed their conversation regarding his family. His lips kissed her neck, softly, sweetly, they grazed along her pale flesh, and it gave her shivers that reached her toes. The young woman parted her lips to speak, to protest, but a soft trembling breath came from her instead. Then the corset loosened, and deeply she breathed; the cool air of the night teased her warm skin, and her senses. Teagan closed her eyes as she struggled with the angel and demon that resided within her, and as she did, her hands slid over his that tried to roam over her belly. &nbsp;“You are being more than persistent, Sir, and I fear I cannot allow that.”

				"Just accept your fate Teagan, tonight you will lose your virtue to me.. I can feel your tremble, your sweet scent growing. You are so sweet and young..", he smiled softly and cupped her chin in gloved fingers before he kissed, more forcefully then before, a deep dominating kiss as his ungloved fingers wrapped into Teagan's soft fingers, squeezing those as well, giving her some matter of comfort against what was to come.

				&nbsp;“Don't be daft! I tremble from the coolness of the night and I grow weary and tired, a just cause to feel faint and ill I believe.” Teagan breathed out, wrinkling her small nose as the man's pungent scent. She could feel her skirts move as he brushed against them, and she turned to look at him, to speak to the man, and with his hat removed, and the scarf, more of him was revealed. She tried not to frown at his shaggy appearance, yet it seemed most suitable for his career in crime. &nbsp;“I--” Her one word was stifled by a kiss, deep and passionate, one that stole her breath from her very body. Teagan struggled for a moment, fighting, and a whimper came from her as she felt his fingers curling around her own which made her stay still in his arms. The new sensations that raked through her body, budding and blossoming, curving and caressing within her, the ones that made her yearn for more, she loathed. &nbsp;“I would not be a lady if I yielded, and certainly sinful if there was pleasure within it, and so you must forgive my insistence when I beseech you to part ways with me, and do so without harming me.” She murmured when the kiss became broken, and she turned away from him, and twisted her engagement ring, prying it from her finger. Idly, she offered it to him, and odd that it had been the first jewel to be removed, but she valued her strings of pearls more than a trinket that marked an arranged marriage. &nbsp;"Take it."

				James stared at the emerald encrusted ring, his eyes ran across the beautiful stone. "You give me this.. your first choice in marriage. Your husband to be.. you give this ring willingly to a cutt-throat.. you did not choose this man", he smiled and pocketed the ring. Then opened the carriage door, he slipped from her, only holding her soft slender hand, "Come..", he was holding open the carriage door and standing at the side, waiting for Teagan to come out.<br><br>When she did he would spun the young woman into his arms, a practised dance move no doubt and kissed her again. A deep passionate one again, one hand resting against her lower back, the other holding her hand. After there kiss broke he smiled, "But mylady Teagan.. there is one thing.. more then all that I desire..", he stroked her smooth face now with both his gloves undone. "Now.. please.. just surrender yourself to my touch..", he took her breath again with a deep passionate kiss, his hand staying on her lower back but the other one started to take her dress off those pale slender shoulders. He was hot against her body, the smell of him richer now as sweat began to bubble on his brow.

				Teagan heard the highwayman's words, a correct assessment on his part regarding her future marriage, her beau, and she gave him an odd quirky smile. &nbsp;“He gave it to me, and thus it is mine to give away, at least in this circumstance, and is, I would think, the most valued of everything I own on me.” Teagan arched an eyebrow, and removed her pearl earrings to drop them into his hand, &nbsp;“To prevent scandal, Sir.” She told him although little did she care about scandal, and certainly she could live with people speaking of her being robbed of values, yet her virginity, her virtue; that would be difficult to bear, living with whispers and gossip, something intimate, private, being whispered about behind doors and behind her back.<br><br>The young lady was lost in thought when he opened the carriage door, took her by the hand, and a smile adorned her lips for he was going to let her leave, unharmed. &nbsp;“Thank you.” She whispered, and used him as a guide to step out of the carriage. The night air nipped at her skin, cooling her, giving her a chill, and then she was taken lightly into the highwayman's arms where he was brash, and kissed her once again, and once again, she could barely breathe from the passion of it. Desperately, she tried not to respond even though there was something oddly sensual about yielding to a stranger, one who seemed determined to be gentle for the most part, or so she assumed. Teagan shivered, but not from the night air; there was a feeling, a natural draw to the man despite his fragrance, and scruffiness, and there was a desire that was blooming within her that longed for something more. She smiled into the kiss, and her words were warm upon his lips; her breath smelled of mint and the sweetness of creamy chocolate.<br><br>&nbsp;“What you ask for will make me a whore,” Teagan murmured, and her eyes looked into his. &nbsp;“Is that your intention? To disgrace the name of women, of ladies? Will you not have satisfaction through taking my wealth, my jewels alone?”<br><br>

				"Ah but your beauty, your virtue is the greatest gem of all Teagan. And I will not take it from you.. not tonight..", he smiled and cupped her chin again, rubbing his fingers against her smooth fair skin. "You are to fair.. yet I will take your wealth, your money.. your strength in currency. But you.. ah... my lady you burn my heart.. its a shame but indeed it is what you do", he smiled and kissed Teagan again, "Now.. there is only one thing Teagan that I wanted one boon to allow your freedom", she felt his smooth hands across her buttocks. "Undress..", he whispered almost breathlessly. His eyes staring at Teagan's..

				When the highwayman spoke his first few words, Teagan exhaled deeply, and with relief even though a sliver of her wanted to submit to him, and that itself she could not explain. A blush crimsoned her cheeks, and grew over her face, and more so as he stole another kiss from the young lady. Her lips pursed together though as he continued to speak to her, partial flattery, and yet her mouth fell open, upon his last request, or maybe demand.<br><br>&nbsp;“I be begging your pardon, Sir,” She barely breathed out, and stared at the man with her wide blue-violet eyes.&nbsp; She arched her eyebrow at him, inquisitively, and found her voice again as shock wore from her. &nbsp;“And exactly what are you going to be doing with me naked? And what of my clothes? Certainly, you are not going to abandon me by the roadside stark naked for anyone to find or take advantage of, for if indeed, Sir, that is cruel.” She partially chided, and looked down the dark road that narrowed and disappeared into the trees and bushes.

				"But Mylady Teagan..", he stepped closer to the young woman, his rough male musk filling her nose once again. "I only ask to see your naked form.. here in this moonlit hour. Tis all, I shall not touch you nor shall I leave you here like that. I only wish to gaze at perfection", he kissed her again, deeply, a rich deep well loving kiss. "There is a part of me that throbs for you.. I cannot say that it does not. But there is one other part that throbs", he took her slender wrist, most believed it would go to his crotch. But instead Teagan found her hand on his heart, "You are the fairest of all the beauties in this land, Teagan I will never hurt you.. believe me for you are special", he smiled, kissed her again. Hands wrapping around her now, one hand into her hair as he pressed there bodies together, a deep meaning kiss. His claiming kiss as he's often heard it described, stepping back James stared at the young woman.<br><br>"Now please.. undress my lass.."

				In comparison to losing her maidenhead, the virtue that certain gentlemen adored claiming in their marital bed on their wedding night, seeing the young lady unclothed, or perhaps it was the act of undressing, was a small price that could easily be afforded. It was, at least, what Teagan believed and certainly, the flattery of romantic words aided her decision, and had there been a slight blush to her cheeks before, it deepened into the colour of bright blood and flooded over her face, and paled as it reached her bosom. As kisses were taken, indeed boldly stolen, the palm of Teagan's delicate hand remained over his heart, and upon the last kiss, the one that the highwayman was famous for, Teagan yielded and savoured the passion that drew women back into the night in pure hope of being robbed again. Practically breathless, and left with a yearning for further indulgence because of a budding of desire that was a new sensation for her, slowly Teagan responded to that last kiss; her soft lips brushing against his, tasting the ale and stale smoke that lingered in him, and then the gentleman broke the kiss.<br><br>&nbsp;“Certainly a devilish gentleman you are,” Teagan whispered almost regretting that he was not going to insist on the rights that only a husband was allowed. All the same, the young lady&nbsp; motioned for him to turn so that she may be allowed some privacy to disrobe, but she expected none, and demurely then, she turned&nbsp; her back to him and began to work her clothing free. Nimble fingers worked on buttons, laces and clasps until her bodice, skirts, corset, and small clothing were free from her body. Nearly naked she was with the streams of moonlight shimmering on her pale skin; idle fingers rolled down her silk stockings, and eventually she stood before him fully unclothed. She stared at the bundle of clothes that she had neatly placed on the ground.<br><br>&nbsp;“I believe that I am at your mercy, Sir.” Teagan admitted, drawing the man's attention to her.

				James stared at the pale beauty.. the shining light, she looked wonderfull.. magical a goddess of olden times. He smiled at Teagan, "Never at my mercy.. only at my love..", he kneeled. Sitting almost face to her pussy, "take this ring back from me I say.. remember this night", he took her slender hand. Kissing softly on Teagan's palm before he placed the ring inside, "As a token of my love for you young Teagan.. perhaps when we meet again I will be in a better position to give my love.. fully to you", he stood up and kissed her again. She could feel his bare fingers on her bare skin, his manhood throbbing against her slender body before he broke away once more. "Never forget..", he said before retrieving his hat, leaving the rapier and taking her gold and jewels. "I bid you goodnight, my Irish scented goddess..", he bowed and smiled, dashing into the woods again.

				While the highwayman stared at her body, inspecting it with his eyes, and daring not to touch, the young lady saw him kneel before her and became uncomfortable with him so near her sex. Before she could step away, or cover herself with her hands that would grant a bit of modesty and decency, the gentleman of the road spoke, and pressed the lovely rectangular cut emerald ring into her hand; his words were tender, and the closest a man ever had to admitting his love for her, or a proposal at that. Jack Atherson was hardly a romantic nor did he speak of his emotions, and so when Teagan felt the ring in her palm accompanied with a kiss, she could not help but to smile and made no attempt to hide it.<br><br>Trembled she did when he rose before her, and kissed her, and this time she willing and boldly responded, yet gently, as if she had been his lover for an indefinite span of time. A breathy sigh escaped her on feeling his fingers upon her bare flesh, and her eyes widened at the hardness of him as he pressed against her. &nbsp;“I shall not, sir.” She whispered as he retrieved his hat, and she watched him disappear into the darkness of night. Only then did she slip the ring upon her finger and turn to dress, and only then did she spy his rapier that he had left behind. Her fingertip traced over the tip of the blade, carefully, for not to cut herself. Little would the lady know of the consequences that the encounter would have upon her life.

				James stared at the whiskey in the glass as he sat in his office, staring at the several files infront of him. Men under his command that had asked for a transfer, he took a gulp of the rich fluid. Groaning softly, it still tasted well. "An earlier day.. for a different man", he smiled and almost wished he had taken something from Teagan that day, something to remember her by.<br><br>Still the taste of her chocolate breath on those sweet lips still came to his lips just as they had so many years ago, he had taken her wealth and became a wealthy captain in the navy. He was sitting in his own office now, the dress uniform covering his form. He was hard still, but some of him had softened he wouldn't be suited for life on the road anymore. That much was sure, he refilled his glass and opened the first file folder.<br><br>Harold Madison, twenty, luitenant serving on the U.S.S. New Yorker, asking for a transfer as his executive officer. The man had served well, even a few combat actions. He whipped open the other two transfer files. Both for the same thing.. he rolled the three names around. Harold would be the proper choice.<br><br>Taking his stamp he stamped twice, rejected onto each man respective file and accepted on Harold's. He walked to the door, staring at Edward, "Edward, bring this to personal details", his orderly nodded and went off with a curt sir. Edward always kept his hair cut almost to his head, his blonde hairs and green eyes made him quite a looker with the ladies. James didn't care much.<br><br>He took his long coat from the nearby rack and put it on, taking out his knife he smiled, seeing the inscriptions. "Hmm.. perhaps I do have a memory of you Teagan..", he mumbled, behind him Edward had returned, "Sir?", he turned curtly, "Edward you are dismissed, I'm going home, you do the same..", taking a gulp of his whiskey James walked to the nearby stables and took out his black stallion.<br><br>Riding out into the night and towards his house in the woods, towards Anna and Natasha and Marc. His wife and two children, he didn't much care for Anna but she was faithfull and always filled his belly with good food. Even though Natasha was bratty he liked that, his daughter reminded her of a certain someone. He chuckled as he led his horse through the dark of the night, up ahead he could see the light of his home.

				Eight years passed, almost a full decade, yet not. Eight years since Teagan O'Meara's fall from grace, her being ostracized, disowned, from her family and from Jack Atherton. The reputation of the rogue highwayman, the one whom women purposely sought to be robbed by, was so feared, so infamous, that it tarnished Teagan's good name, and haunted her reputation as a lady. No one, not her parents, not her fiancé,&nbsp; and not her friends, believed that the gentleman of the road had not stolen her virtue, did not believe the incredible tale Teagan spoke of and the situation she endured. Turned her away, they did, penniless and destitute and with only fate on her side, and perhaps an odd occasional visit with luck, the woman found herself traveling the eastern coastline of America, and lived in New York for some time, yet the Carolinas never abandoned her heart.<br><br>In the worst of circumstances and situations, one learned to survive or be devoured and have death steal upon oneself; Teagan had fire, and a lust for life which made her a survivor.&nbsp; She turned to crime, a mark of her destiny, and perhaps the thieving, and the occasional murder was influenced by a past event, but it was better than whoring herself. No one had ever touched her virtue. It was her own to give away, not to be taken or stolen and hardly did it matter anymore.<br><br>Elegantly beautiful, time not being physically cruel to the lady, but emotionally distressing, Teagan remained equally as fair as in the days of yore, perhaps more so for now she was fully developed into a woman. The clothing she favoured, however, would not suggest that; mens clothing of dark colors disguised her curves, and a long coat in a fine scarlet wool blanketed her, and it whipped and rippled in the wind. A rapier, one that was left behind by the highwayman years ago, clung to her side as well as flintlock pistols. Her reputation as a cut throat, a thief, was equal to any man in the area, and there were whispers that she was cruel, and on occasion, it was merited.&nbsp; Lurking on the built up area outside of the city, Teagan's figure that sat astride her black mare was shadowed on the slopes as she waited for her prey, and did so patiently. It would come with time. <br><br>

				James as he rode through the thick forest surrounding his home began to feel uneasy, the road looked much like the one he had been remembering. His eyes stared to the forest, but without anything to light his way he could only see small shapes. Still he readied his sabre, having it out of the sheath already a bit. His stallion whinnied slowly as he moved closer, thinking that he was just being overly cautious he set in another gallop now, the blade sheathed once more as he rode quickly.<br><br>Just the sense that something was about to happen was enough to set the former highwayman off.

				The clouds of twilight slithered across the fragment crest of the silvery moon which cast shadows across the darkened forest, and the path that snaked through and around it. On the slope where the lady sat upon her horse, where the mare rooted at the softened earth with a hoof, she spied a lone traveler, a rider, heading east towards the woods, and towards the house a couple of miles away. Adjusting the tricorner hat upon her head, pushing it down to cover her eyes, and upon tugging up the collar of her coat, Teagan withdrew her one pistol, aimed it towards the rider, and fired it; the intention was not to strike the rider or horse, but to spook them deeper into the woods.<br><br>A thin line of smoke rolled forth from the barrel and scented the air around her, and within those moments, she reloaded the pistol, holstered it, and drove her mare down the hill, weaving into the woods in pursuit of her prey.

				James' great black stallion whinnied as he was raised by the gunshot, damn he knew it. He had forgotten his own rather sleek pistol, only his sabre he had now. He had no choice, he gave his horse the order to go deep into the woods. Seeking his way around several clusters of trees he planted his horse there, then dismounted. Unsheathing the sword and keeping it low to the ground so not to catch the moonlight shimmer above them. He waited.. patiently. The rush of life back in his veins.. this is what he lived for..

				On seeing the rider and his horse burst forth into the woods, Teagan guided her mare to follow, but not directly. She weaved a path through the birches and maples, and then dismounted with ease;she had grown used to the highwayman's rapier at her side, at first stumbling with the dismount of a weapon other than a pistol, but now it was well practiced. In the breeze of the early autumn night, her scarlet wool long coat rippled in the wind, snapped on occasion, as she let the reins fall from her hand, and slowly withdrew her pistol. The rider would stop, if anything to think, to gather their wits; they always did, and that was when the young beauty found them and robbed them at gunpoint. She doubted this would be no different from the others.<br><br>She watched her footings, not stepping on branches or stirring pools of dried leaves that gathered&nbsp; randomly on the floor of the woods.&nbsp; In not being able to find the rider, and no doubt a male rider at that, Teagan turned to dramatics; she started to snivel, and faintly cry, noises that echoed in the woods. The she screamed. &nbsp;“Oh, you beast of a man! Please don't hurt me!” She whimpered, feigning being ravished. It drew even the most cowardly men to her, ones who dared to save a lady from the evil clutches of a man, and there when they stumbled upon her, the men realized that it was a hoax, and as she robbed them, often being cursed by them, she fully agreed that she ought to burn in hell for the prank...but all the interesting people were in hell, so truly, it was hardly a punishment.

				Instead Teagan saw the familair flicker of something steel, something shining in the light of the moon as it was pressed against the side of her neck. "I don't think so..", the man's voice sounding somewhat familair, yet his smell was a mix of thick smoke and whiskey right now.

				A gentle laugh came from Teagan, one that was airy, almost musical. Gingerly, she raised her hands in the air; her one hand was still holding her pistol, but in the dim light one could note that it was not in a threatening manner. <em>Eight years, and not a single threat until now</em>. &nbsp;“Apparently, I called out too soon.” She said, lightly, quietly, as she tried to puzzle the voice from her past, yet couldn't. Perhaps it was somebody she had robbed before, but she couldn't say for certain, and she stepped away from the steel; it grazed along her neck slicing at the wool instead of her skin. She&nbsp; turned to look at the man while still holding her hands in the air rather lazily. &nbsp;“For that error, I must forgive myself, and that I'm more than willing to do. Now, best we part ways and forget about this unseemly business.” Teagan stated. Her collar was still hitched up around her mouth and nose, her eyes remained still shaded by her hat, but no mistake would be made, a female she was; the long loose hair that sprawled from under the hat, and the soft voice gave her gender away, and often she used it to her advantage. Not tonight, however.

				James stared at the gentle laughing figure as she turned around, for that smooth voice was definately a she. The pistol held in her hand, yet she was not touching the trigger in any way. "You did not call out to soon dear lady, one cannot trick one at it's own game..", he eyed her young body as she told him to simply walk away from her. His long dirty blonde hair was revealed by the moon and his hair swept back a little, his bushy beard hiding most of his face from view though.<br><br>"I would be willing to let you go, but surrender your weapons to me, I'll allow you to keep the rapier", he said, the sabre was at the perfect arc to strike her, that much Teagan knew for certain. Even though this navy captain, for his clothes where mostly revealed to her now that the moon seemed to have taken a direct intrest. Lighting the forest between them.

				Teagan's jaw set firm on hearing his words, and irritated she became, but she laughed, lowly and jovial. Her money was well earned and well spent on her custom made pistols; the handles were made to purposely fit her hands, the trigger to her liking, and even the barrel was etched with Celtic knots: elaborate and vain, they suited the young woman. She shook her head all too aware of the sword that could easily carve into her luscious pale skin and scar her. &nbsp;“Well, Sir, Captain” she began, noticing the stripes on his prestine, and with her nervousness, the Irish lilt in her voice became apparent. &nbsp;“I fear that I cannot surrender my pistols to you, for they are a mark of my work, and the rapier has sentimental attachment to a particular memory of mine, and so you must forgive me for denying your request. I do promise, however, that I will not harm you when you walk away from my beloved presence.” Teagan tilted her head, and although the hat still shaded her eyes, and although the collar still protected her neck, sultry crimson painted lips could be seen against her porcelain skin.

				James had to admire Teagan's tenacity to hold her ground against him, hearing her words she caught him smiling. "You don't know who you face youngling, I raided these same roads many years ago..", then the rapier comment settled on him, his eyes staring at the Rapier hilt. "Still I might release you, show me the rapier.. and I will not harm you", James remained with his sabre raised for now. His eyes danced at the hilt, he couldn't quite see it. Though there was something odly familair about it, the leather, worn and cracked, cut into..

				Teagan gave the man a peculiar look, not that he could tell, but his voice was familiar, too familiar, and in her mind she began to eliminate the victims she had stole from: many men cursed her, and long winded they were, but the ones whom were too obnoxious, she had shot. &nbsp;“I believe, Sir, I may be able to oblige you.” Teagan said, and the sound of metal rang through the air which was absorbed the thick of the woods. The shimmering glint of steel could be seen in the brightness of the moonlight and Teagan's gloved hand, one covered in supple black kid skin, tossed the rapier into the air. A green ribbon with embroidered shamrocks on it, one that had been cut on more than one occasion, one that was notable in the light between them, had been woven around the hilt of the handle. &nbsp;“For your curiosity, Sir,”&nbsp; Teagan said, and as the man was distracted by the rapier, she stepped backwards out of his blade's reach. Dried leaves crumpled beneath her feet, and she holstered her pistol; the pair were snug on her slender hips and with idle elegance, she began to roll a cigarette.

				James caught the rapier in his grip, holding it tightly for a moment as he sheathed his own sabre. Doing a few quick forward thrusts he stared at the grip, "I know this blade..", he said, staring at Teagan, his eyes began to flow over her form. Almost like he was trying to remember something, ".. and I know you.. Teagan", the calling of the voice making his throat dry as he stared at the young woman. His eyes staring at that slender body, now more fully a woman then when first he had seen her.

				Thin wisps of smoke curled in the crisp autumn air around Teagan's womanly figure, one that was heavily draped and masked by men's clothing, and yet their was no mistaking her to be a man. It may have been the overall slenderness of her, the sway of hips, and too, no man that she knew of painted their lips whatsoever; the crimson paint clung to the cigarette, and Teagan blew a ring into the air, manipulating the smoke with her tongue. A chuckle came from her, one that was reminiscent of a feline's purr, and her violet blue eyes settled on him. Taking the thin cigarette from her lips, and holding it in her right hand, a smile blossomed on her lips. &nbsp;“It is&nbsp; my name, indeed, because I always find it civil to introduce myself to those I am robbing, but too, there are other names that unsavory gentlemen have called me by, and so regardless of Teagan or another name, I am known to many, Sir.” Teagan informed him, and in a fluid elegant gesture, she removed her hat and bowed before him. The tangle of silky blonde locks cascaded over the scarlet wool overcoat, and her eyes peered up at him.<br><br>&nbsp;“But allow me to introduce myself without any threat.&nbsp; I am Teagan; a lady robber of the roads. It is a pleasure to met you,” She stood at full height then, and tossing the cigarette to the ground, grinding it into the wet earth, she walked over to the stranger that she could not place at least not immediately. Her hand curled around the hilt of the rapier, curling over the man's fingers to claim the blade for her own; a emerald ring sparkled on her one finger, a ring that her fiancé never wanted back. &nbsp;“A rapier may look to be the same as another, and I reassure you that this was a gift from the man whom I had been in the presence of one evening. It was not stolen.”

				James stared at the young woman, her painted lips, those tangled silky blonde locks as finally her hat was pulled away. The way she said those words, now standing before him he took a sniff off her air. It was unlike before, more.. rougher, but she certainly still had her own personal smell to her. This was Teagan.. his Teagan. "I know Teagan.. I have called apon you to stand and deliver once..", he whispered very slowly. His rough beard hanging to his face could not completly hide the facial scar, and with the light now casting over them both it was visible.<br><br>"That rapier had once been mine.. my Lady Teagan..", he smiled and wrapped his fingers quickly into hers. Holding the rapier together, his eyes staring into hers. Those same blue eyes..

				An unsettling feeling roamed over Teagan, bit at her mind, tugged on past memories to a particular night about eight years ago, and on saying nothing at first, the young woman pushed her hat back upon her head so that she could look at the naval officer before her. Her eyes studied his features in the moonlight. There was a recognition of his blue eyes, the shaggy blond hair, the scar upon his face; gingerly Teagan's gloved hand touched the growth of beard, and her index finger traced over it. A smile appeared upon her face, one that was small, and full of ironic amusement. &nbsp;“I cannot recall the last time I was given the title of Lady,&nbsp; it being stripped of me the night we met in these woods, and although I was never <em>your</em> Lady, you may as well have deflowered me that night for no one believed me.” The words were spoken quietly, and with little trace of bitterness in her voice, but her fingers longed to wield her pistol.

				James stared at her bitterness in the voice and the face quietly, he smiled softly. "Then perhaps we may remedy that.. meet me tomorrow in town. There is an Inn that I always visit, we can perhaps catch upon old times", James smiled and stroked the young woman's soft skin, his rough leather riding glove across that skin. "Though I must say that I am honoured you kept my gifts, Lady Teagan as you will always be to me..", he took her slender hand and pressed a bearded kiss apon the top of it. Smiling softly. "I trust you will not shoot me in the back", he turned and walked towards his horse, "The Iron Anchor, meet me there tomorrow at eight"<br><br>He mounted his horse with grace and began to trot off.. leaving Teagan alone.. if she wished to come. She could come.. James more then anything wished it.

				Teagan should not have smiled as the stranger offered a kiss upon her hand, the tryst at the inn, but her bitterness was overpowered by the mere fact that it had been the first kind words spoken to her in years. Flattery, as she knew it, could get a man anything he desired; it depended on the woman not to yield to the temptation of pleasure and vanity. <br><br>Teagan closed her eyes as she lost her wits momentarily, silently cursed herself, and then upon opening them, those blue violet eyes stared at the man. &nbsp;“It is unsavoury in character to shoot a man in the back, Sir, so do not fear that I will do that. It is against my nature to be that unseemly.” Teagan stated and slipping the rapier into the thin scabbard. She disappeared into the woods to find her mare.

				That night James claimed his wife in there martial bed at least thrice more, the woman not knowing the young stronger man that was between her legs now. James having founded a new lease on life he, as his wife rested from there third orgasm, stood staring at his reflection in a mirror. His muscles had lessened somewhat and he wasn't the same lean bodied man he had been once, still he was strong and quick. No doubt there, just a bit more well formed.<br><br>Slowly the sun began to rise and James stared at his panting wife, "Stay in bed, sleep it off..", he said with a devilish smile before cupping her chin and kissing those sweet lips. He loved his wife.. but there was another who needed him.. and he needed her. As he dressed in his normal clothes for work he also picked up an extra bundle of clothes, the Iron Anchor was a good place for many a seaman and a member of the Navy, but still being without his Captain's clothing might be a better idea... and perhaps he could visit the hairdresser today as well..

				Eight years ago, Teagan had lived in poverty for some time, but steadily the young woman clawed her way out from it's grimy depths, and it was a constant slow progression, but she had managed; it made several despise her including that of Jack Atherton. It irked him so much, that the man had spread vicious rumours, those of whore, trying to mar her good name. He was the first man Teagan even shot let alone kill, and never did they find Jack Atherton's body. Weighted it was at the bottom of a well on his own property, and so at the boarding house where Teagan now lived, one that was run by a tyrant, hardly did the woman bother her or bully her. The Irish lass had told the woman, on one particular night&nbsp; where she tried to demand more money from her, exactly what happened to Jack Atherton, and in exact detail. There was a decrease in her rent the next day, and never was there a another question asked.<br><br>The dresses Teagan had were out of fashion, a mark of her fall from grace, but they were still lovely, and barely worn by the beauty. The only thing she bought new that day was a pair of silk stockings, blue in colour, with stays, and she bought perfume. The scent of a woman could lure a man as much as physical beauty and words, and she had plans for that highwayman, now naval officer, and tonight was going to be the beginning of a plan set in motion. She desired to ruin him as he did her that one evening eight years ago. She only prayed that she would not fall for his charming ways and flattery.<br><br>

				James having dressed in the clothes he had brought, and having gone to the barber shop he looked somewhat more like the man he had been before. His bushy beard had been shaven off, leaving only a ring-beard around his mouth which did look nicely. His hair was cut a bit shorter and was cleaned, now wearing a pair of dark skinned, yet elegant, pants and the same with a white blouse and a black overguard he buckled his boots. Placed his sabre on his side and went to the Inn.<br><br>Ordering for himself a glass of whiskey he waited for Teagan, he only wished to see one thing and that was to see the woman he had never stopped loving in his heart..

				Teagan had managed to wear the same gown as she did the evening she met the highwayman although it was a little snug in the curves of the bodice, her cleavage well rounded and womanly in comparison to what it used to be, and she never minded. Her hair she pinned up or at least she tried, but the thickness of the locks, and the curls were rather disobedient, and some sprung free to cascade down her back and over her neck.&nbsp; Yes, she thought as she gazed into the mirror, she looked as lovely as she did eight years ago, and with that vain compliment, Teagan left for the Inn.<br><br>It wasn't overly crowded, nor was it too sparse of people, and as Teagan stepped through the doors, she spotted the highwayman drinking amber liquid from a glass. She could only guess that it was whiskey, remembering the smell of him many years ago, and she walked near him, and took a chair without saying a word. With a flick of her wrist, her fan opened and gently she waved it before her face, shading her lovely features.

				Smiling very softly James stares at Teagan, the dress she wore on the night of there meeting. Her frail beauty hardened, almost like a perfect doll she was now. He stared at a nearby waitress, "Whatever the lady wishes..", the young woman, her blonde curling hair hanging loose around her face, waiting for Teagan's order. The highwayman taking another gulp of his whiskey, eyes where still looking her over. There was no doubting the look in his eyes.. he wanted Teagan.

				Teagan folded her fan and rested it in her lap. Her eyes took in the waitress, every detail of her; a habit that Teagan developed years ago as a way to identify people: limps, lisps, odd eye colouration, and gait. &nbsp;“Such a gentleman, indeed, Sir.” Teagan said and leaned back in her chair. &nbsp;“A bourbon, if you will, please. And a large one at that, Miss.”&nbsp; Teagan smiled afterwards, one that was charming and yet demure, playfully so. Her hand, gloved with soft kid skin, patted the seat beside her, beckoning the highwayman to settle near her, and keep her company.<br><br>&nbsp;“Have I told you how cruel you are? I have spent eight long years at the disadvantage of not knowing your name, and yet you know mine, and my Christian name at that! I think that would constitute you as being cruel, Sir, and had we not been in public here, I dare say, I would slap you for being impolite.” Teagan informed him, her voice low, and creamy in the air; the Irish lilt thick on her tongue.&nbsp; She accepted the bourbon, took a sip, and her eyes settled on his as she took a swallow of the liquid; it delicately burned her throat.

				James smiled as he very slowly stood up and moved down besides Teagan, his hand he had to steady on the seat cushion not to reach to far. It was a wise decision on his part to have met Teagan here, anywhere else and he might have done that which he swore he wouldn't eight years ago. Still he stared at the younger woman, nodding softly, "My name is James Madison..", he bowed very slightly towards her. "now Captain of our navy..", as his drink was brought he took a gulp of the fiery liquid. Staring into Teagan's eyes.. the fire that danced there was almost frightening in it's intensity.

				Teagan watched the man before her take a small bow as he told her his name, it but a whisper in the close distance between them, and as he settled near her, she took another swallow of bourbon. She leaned near him, giving him a darling view of her well rounded cleavage, and then the young woman crossed her legs underneath her skirts&nbsp; so that her small shoe caressed his leg. &nbsp;“Captain James Madison,” &nbsp;The words were delicately said, and as she spoke them, her sultry eyes gazed upon the man. &nbsp;“Well, my dear Captain James Madison, in seeing how you have become a valuable member of society, I can only guess that there must be a woman outside this inn whom is married to you, maybe has a child of yours, and is yearning for your dear return home. Now my question is simple: why would you wish to jeopardize such loveliness as that to remember nothing more than a girl from a past robbery?” Teagan whispered, and tenderly, almost endearingly, she brushed a stray hair away from the man's eyes.

				James' heart throbbed from the sweetness of the closeness that he was feeling from Teagan, the tenderness as she stared at him. The sultry irish voice, his eyes closed as she brushed his hair back. The man smiled, "Because that girl has never left my mind", he captured her hand, kissing it softly, ".. never left my heart either", his eyes closed again as one other hand slowly ran down and stroked down Teagan's side.. very gently.

				Teagan offered James a warm gentle smile. Indeed, the flattery was lovely and yet, Teagan thought, more than likely it was spoken out of regret for not taking her virtue that night, not deflowering her, and thus spoken from a lust that should have died years ago. Hardly could a man like him love, or so she thought, and so she let the cat and mouse game of chase begin.<br><br>As if she was always fond of James, Teagan tenderly caressed his face with her gloved hand. As her fingers slid along his skin, she became somewhat fascinated by the scar on his face and wondered how it happened, wondered at the tale that was there behind the injury. &nbsp;“And believe you me, James,” Teagan whispered, truthfully, &nbsp;“never did you leave my mind once. I have thought of you every night since we met years ago, and I may be bold enough to admit that I usually become heated with those thoughts.” Never was her thoughts kind regarding the man, and normally she struck her pillow, heated with anger and not lust and desire. A smile graced her lips, and she continued to drink.

				James felt his heart throb with a sense of enjoyment as she told him those things, feeling her gloved fingers on his face, on the scar there. "Those words fill my heart with joy Mylady Teagan, to see you have taken my former road saddens me though. You had so much potential still I see that you have made the most of this life. You are still as beautiful, if not more then you were those eight years ago", his one hand now slowly creeped up onto her upper thigh. Staring into Teagan's eyes, his where alight with the passion that had been supressed for eight long years.

				Teagan placed her glass of bourbon, as well as her fan, down on a small side table near their settee. With&nbsp; sweet regard, she took James' hands within her own, but prior to she did allow him to feel her thigh and let his hand linger a little too long, and a blush christened her face. A warm smile, one that was somewhat timid, graced her lips and turned her cheeks plump and round before lifting his hands to her lips and kissing his fingers. Crimson paint from those luscious rosebud lips now stained his skin.<br><br>&nbsp;“James, your words are kind, believe me,” Teagan whispered, and gently squeezed his hands in her own. &nbsp;“And believe me too when I say that the only people one can truly disappoint are ones friends, and so if the path I chose for my life disappoints you, saddens you, then I suppose for certain then that you are a friend. It was not an easy choice, but when I was disowned by my family, and by my fiancé, it was robbery or being on my back with some pig of a man having his way with me. I didn't want that for since I met you years ago, you haven't left my mind or my heart, and I have I prayed that we'd meet again, and God graced me yesterday eve with your presence. A sign, I think, that this was meant to be.” The words were softly spoke, and every one true, yet it was not love that drove Teagan to wish for another encounter with James, but one of misery and hate. Seldom were the feelings any different from love, however, and leaning forward, Teagan brushed a kiss upon his cheek; her face delicately caressed his.

				James smiled softly and nodded, giving a soft gasp as she kissed his cheek, those soft smooth lips. Her fingers slowly running over his skin, the blonde haired captain had to hold back every bit of himself not to simply jump Teagan right here. "I have longed for you so long Teagan, to hear what has happened brings tears to my heart. This shouldn't have been your life.. but it has and I wish to repay it somehow. Let me help you.. perhaps we can find some way for you to become.. my beloved.. my cherished..", he allowed another one of his hands to slide free as he pressed in tighter, the heat that radiated off him was incredible and the slight odor of strong liquour, smoke and a hint of sweat lingered in the air as he stared into Teagan's eyes. The murky jade of an Irish princess.

				Teagan allowed the Captain to draw near her, intimately at that, and the words he spoke not only surprised her, but made her blush unexpectedly. It was an unusual turn of events, and one that Teagan had never thought of, and this in itself was deliciously delightful for it provided with a means to personally, and intimately know the highwayman, and seek the best means of destroying him as he had done to her. She knew too that true and honest emotions could not be afforded or else she'd never have the opportunity to avenge herself. The entire situation made the woman heated, and the fan she just discarded became open yet again. She fanned herself as she desperately tried to cool her emotions. &nbsp;“James, it is most kind of you indeed, but I do not wish for you to pity my situation in life that fate has dealt me. I don't want to be a charity which you feel obligated to for that is unkind.” Teagan whispered, and offered him a delicate smile. <br><br>Teagan toyed with her fan, awkwardly. &nbsp;“Besides, you may not like what I have to offer being how I am inexperienced in relationships, and I may be petrified of you in a bedchamber. Men, I have heard, can be intimidating when unclothed and in lust.” The words seemed ridiculous coming from Teagan after all these years for in the boarding house in which she lived, the woman had several male lodgers. She had seen tightened breeches, knew how people made babies, and she had the opportunity to attend a birthing once, yet all of that did not make up for actual experience. She decided to take another sip of bourbon.

He smiled and shook his head, "Do not take it as pity my dear Teagan.. take it was a debt I have long not payed. I wish to make ammends, I have brought you too this life and I will bring you out of it as well", as she whispered the words about her prowess in the bedchamber James smiled and took the last gulp of his whiskey, "You need not worry about that.. I will only have you. If you would have me as well..", those strong fingers of James began there touching of Teagan's thigh once more. There was a buldging in James' crotch, he wanted her.. by God he wanted her.

				Finishing a sip of bourbon, and beginning to feel the effects of the liquor, Teagan's fingers caressed those that were on her face, those that belonged to James, and the palest of blushes brightened her cheeks and nose. She took his hand in hers then, and kissed the tips of them, but the index finger, she wrapped her crimson lips around it, and suckled on it quite suggestively. &nbsp;“More than fair, my dear James, and more than gentlemanly, I assure you.” She leaned closer to him, letting his hand slid further on her thigh, and she boldly stole a kiss from him, letting her crimson painted lips linger on his, nipping at his bottom lip, and brushing her warm tongue along his skin tasting the whiskey.

				James Madison had been the only man bold enough to have kissed Teagan fully on the lips while others had merely kissed her hand or cheek if they dared. The enrapturing sensations that stirred within the woman, the little pulses of heat that throbbed in her chest, hands, feet and so very near her womanhood, began to spread over her and made her crave to gratify them. She listened to that hoarse husky voice of James' bidding her plea, and she slipped her hand in his while meeting his gaze with a sultry look that she knew nothing of; it naturally just happened. &nbsp;“Of course, James.” She whispered and squeezed his hand delicately while rising to her feet, and no doubt he was going to lead her to a room upstairs that he had rented for the night or so Teagan at least thought.

				Truth be told James had rented nothing just yet, but her lover to be did quickly aquire a room with the barkeep whom did stare at James wondering why he was taking another woman up there. Still wasn't his place to ask, the upper level of the inn was warm from the kitchen below and the food smells lingered up here as well. As they finally stood before the door they needed to share James placed one hand on Teagan's shoulder and smiled before swiping the woman off her feet, he smiled as he carried her through the doorway.<br><br>The small room looked nice and clean, there was a big bed, a small washing bowl on a table and also a dresser. The small window that was in the room was closed right now and was quickly becoming covered and growing white, no doubt from the heat of the two people now there. As James placed Teagan down on the floor again he kissed her deeply, hand softly rubbing her butt.

				Teagan saw the curious look that the barkeep gave James, and for a moment, the barkeeps eyes met her own, and had Teagan been younger, she would have blushed with shame, but circumstances change, and she was no keeper of anyone's soul; her own was marred with many sins by now. The Irish beauty wondered if James noticed, or if he even cared, and it appeared not when they arrived at the door and swept her up in his arms: an odd gesture that a husband&nbsp; would make to his bride on their wedding night as they crossed the threshold to their abode. It felt peculiar to Teagan, and more so to be in a man's arms; she felt quite helpless, and strangely giddy, and that feeling left when the door closed behind them and was placed on her feet.<br><br>Before she even had the opportunity to peer around the room, save for catching a glimpse at the large bed which looked plush and comfortable, her lips were met, and she was lost in a kiss with James. Her fingers weaved and knitted through his hair, and as the kiss deepened, she felt rather breathless and weak. She smiled into the kiss enjoying the new sensations that sparked throughout her body and warmed her. It was as if her body yearned to be claimed by him for she found herself drawn closer to him and pressed against him.

				No words of love or lust where needed, there was nothing to be said for they both knew there feelings. They both loved eachother, or so James thought the man's kiss broke softly but not before he kissed his way down her neck. The deep kisses as he worked on Teagan's corset, pulling it free once more. His eyes closed as he inhaled the delirious scent of this Irish beauty, kissing her with deep need loving how she pressed against him.

				Teagan shivered as James moved his lips down her neck, as the kisses deepened at times, and as James tasted her fair perfumed skin against his warm tongue.&nbsp; Clinging to him, leaning so that her body formed perfectly against his, Teagan willing surrendered herself to James. Softly she sighed, enjoying the blossoming sensations that rippled through her, those that made her cling to the former highwayman; her fingers stole over his chest and back, curiously roaming, and as the corset was loosened, the lady finally stepped away from him but only by an inch or two. &nbsp;“Do you care to completely undress me, or do you wish me to undress myself?” Teagan whispered to him, and smiled. &nbsp;“Although I must say, James, that it would be more interesting if you took the honour.” Her violet blue eyes smoldered as she looked up at him, and an almost timid smile played across her crimson stained lips.

His tongue stroking the young Irish woman's, he allowed his hands to return to that corset, finally pulling it completly free before he started to tug the clothes off a bit. It seemed James had not lost his highwayman skills as Teagan felt her dress slide off her shoulder and fall down, pooling around her feet.

				The highwayman had not lost his skill, she noted, and her dress billowed and pooled at her feet. Teagan was left standing before James wearing her undergarments, those coloured in white and sky blue with silver embroidery, and delicately she stepped out of her dress leaving it on the hardwood floor. It occurred to her then that she never saw a man completely naked before, that on many levels James would be her first, and strangely that thought made her cheeks tinge with colour and she timidly looked away. She sat on the edge of the bed and while looking at James, she pulled out the pins that held up her hair; golden tresses tumbled across her shoulders and stretched down her back. Only then did recline on the bed, and peer at James wondering what his body would be like, and if she should be fearful of him.

Opening up the buttons to his shirt James pulled it free from his chest, revealing the dark blonde hairs on his chest. He wasn't overly hairy, but still had a nice ammount of fuzz. His body was well formed but he did have some thickness that wasn't muscle on him, the next thing that followed where his boots. The final thing was the belt, opening the gap up he pulled his pants down. Revealing his strong legs, also with a light cover of hair. Slowly he approached Teagan before going onto his knees, kissing her belly softly.

				Teagan could not help but to look at James, perhaps even stare, for indeed he was the first man she had seen unclothed and bashfully she glanced away as if to give him privacy as he approached her on the bed. As his knees sunk into the bed, the soft mattress lowering near her body from his weight, and as he kissed her bare belly, she gasped with surprise. Silencing a giggle or so, Teagan soon found herself concentrating on relaxing, and as she did, her fingers roamed into James' hair, playfully tugging at it as kisses were rained along her tummy. She struggled not to wiggle and squirm under his touch, and finally after becoming used to the soft tender kisses she relaxed, and welcomed the heat that flitted in her belly and grew and outstretched to roam over her bosom and her nether regions which left an ache within her.<br><br>&nbsp;“Oh, James!” Teagan breathed out as her fingers began to explore the curves of his jaw and neck; fingertips stroked his warm flesh, and knitted through the short hairs on his chest. The touches were light and teasing, timid at best. &nbsp;“This is so lovely.” Words that could describe her body's responses to the man's caresses and kisses&nbsp; were lost to her.

				The man only smiled back and worked his way up, kissing very slowly up her belly, his hands stroked across Teagan's fair skin as he inhaled her soft scent. She was so beautiful, so nice, James had to hold himself back from tearing her clothes off.. but this was definately nice as well. Finally James' kisses reached Teagan's brazier and reaching behind it was quickly unlocked, James very slowly pulled it away from Teagan's breasts then tossed it into the chair nearby. The very next kiss was at the top of her breasts, leading closer and closer with each kiss to her hopefully hardened nipple.

				Apprehensively, Teagan touched James, touched his skin on his back, traced over it with her hands to feel him, explore his body and as she drew them to his belly and knitted her fingers through his chest hair. Only then did he unhooked the garment that covered her breasts and slipped it off of her, exposing her creamy white skin. The cool air rushed over her heated flesh, teasing her senses as James rained precious lingering kisses on her chest, and the swell of her plump breasts; her pale pink nipples hardened, became taut, and her breathing deepened and came in airy sighs. The kisses, and the new sensations were startlingly pleasurable, and thoughtlessly, instinctively, Teagan parted her legs so that James, his pelvis, could snuggly rest against her own.

				James still did not slip inbetween her pale thighs yet, he touched them, his fingers crossing over the soft sweet flesh. But he kissed her smooth breasts first, sucking softly at the nipple. His eyes stared into Teagan's before he returned the favour to her other breast, then he kissed his way down once more. Starting to softly kiss on those smooth thighs, his face between her thighs, teasing her, not going near the heat that was flowering between her legs.

				A sigh, one almost like a low purr, left Teagan's painted crimson red lips as James kissed her breasts, and gently began to suck on her one nipple. His lips and tongue teased the sensitive pale pink skin, and&nbsp; it left the Irish beauty fervid and yearning, her heat spreading throughout her body until she gasped for air when a kiss was brushed against her creamy white thigh.&nbsp; It was a blissful feeling, and tenderly she knitted her fingers through James' hair, playfully tugging on it until she wiggled underneath him and laughed as a ticklish spot on her thigh was discovered. Almost whimpering, she raised her leg to rest it on his shoulder; her fingers began to roll down her blue silk stocking. Teagan smiled at him. &nbsp;“You are like a devil taunting and teasing me to sin, making it all too tempting and desirous, and I would beg you to stop, ask for mercy, but it feels too pleasurable.” &nbsp;She whispered, and when the stocking was completely rolled up, peeled from her shapely leg, she dropped it to the floor and smiled at James.

I want you..", he kissed that foot once more before stripping Teagan's other stocking off as well. Then finally he hooked his fingers around her panties, slowly rolling them down. James staring at the young woman bend downwards, his face near to her soft mound kissing it softly.

				Teagan smiled, one that was playful and alluring. &nbsp;“A beautiful angel fallen from grace and now at the mercy of a charming devil, and truly it is a question of who is bewitching whom.” Teagan breathed out, and lifted her bottom off of the bed as the last of her undergarments were peeled from her, and there she was fully exposed to the highwayman once more.&nbsp; She stirred with ecstasy as she felt his hot breath against her skin, loving the sensation of it, and the idea that he was teasingly close to her womanhood.

"Though now is not the time for talk my love.. now's the time for pleasure and sweetness", he kissed her very deeply, tongue-playing with Teagan before he broke there long hot passionate kiss. The next feeling Teagan would feel on her body would be James' tongue spiralling through her hot pussy.

				Teagan had spoken because she was apprehensive, not truly knowing what to expect from this experience of love making, and she had to trust in her instincts. As James kissed her, Teagan responded as did her body. Her mouth opened against his, and desirously the kiss deepened. Her warm wet tongue sought that of the highwayman's while fingers knitted through his hair, and trailed along his back. She willed herself to bask in the delicious sensations that roamed through her body with the intimacy they shared. A pleasurable gasp left her devil red lips when Teagan felt James' tongue lick at her sex, tease her, and she sunk further into the bed grasping at the sheets, and languidly, she draped a shapely leg over his shoulder.

True she was mostly acting on instinct and James knew that but it didn't stop him from thoroughly enjoying her, smiling he placed two fingers inside of the tight enclave of her lips and slowly stretched it open. Followed by a deep tongue inside of her wettened pussy, hands squeezing allover Teagan's body.

				On feeling fingers enter her, on feeling her being stretched open, and on feeling James' tongue push into her silky warm depths, Teagan's body tensed, squirmed and wiggled underneath his body at the new delicious sensations; electrifying tingles swam along her spine and pooled over her breasts and sex. Teagan drew in quick breath to relax. Her young healthy heart pounded in her chest letting her bosom rise higher as she breathed, and her heart echoed within her, pulsating with life. It flooded heated blood throughout her that seemed to center on her womanhood as did those tingles. She whimpered a delightful soft sound.<br><br>

				James smiled very softly, staring at Teagan's eyes, the Irish princess. He then returned to more pressing matters, very slowly his fingers began to work together with the former highwayman turned Captain, slowly they plunged back and fro into her whilst James' tongue swirled along the opening hole. Often nudging his face against Teagan's hardened clit. Loving the feeling of those soft moans that flowed from her opened lips.

				Teagan idly stroked James' hair. Lightly she pulled at it while feeling the silky strands between her fingers while becoming flooded with exquisite sensations that made her breathe deeply, pant, and sigh and lost she became in the world of pleasure. Teagan had never known that world, that of physical intimacy between lovers, and easily she could become enthralled by it, fascinated, wanting to delve further into the depths of it. Lazily, Teagan stretched out before James and she squirmed with delight, basked in it while his fingers slipped into her wet silkiness and stretched her tenderly, toying with her, playing with her, preparing her for his swollen and stiffened member. Her breathing became ragged as pleasure swept through her.

				James loved the sound of such a virgin maiden, this young beauty moaning slowly, being entranced by what he was doing, her soft eyes closing and opening. Her fingers in his hair, the way she moved across the bed very slowly. Moving his mouth out James opted for a different motion. Suddenly Teagan's body would hopefully experience a rush of pleasure through her as James slowly cupped her clit, starting to roll his tongue across it while two fingers now deeply and knowing were to stroke, moved around in her pussy.

				Slight pain lingered with the bewitching sensation of pleasure that flourished within the young woman's body. Her curvaceous body flushed with heat, and she squirmed and writhed underneath the man's attentive caresses and exploratory fingers. Unknowingly, Teagan tilted her pelvis towards James silently begging him for more, wishing and desiring him to heighten the delight she felt. Her legs trembled and her hands sought to squeeze the linens on the bed as her heart began to race and beat quickly within her chest. &nbsp;“Oh, James!” Teagan breathed out, bucking her hips towards him, her muscles tightening as she cried out further for him; her voice interrupted the silence of the room, and her devious plans at that moment in time were long forgotten.<br>

He smiled and waited for her to calm, just a second before he hopefully preformed his coup de grace, three fingers now penetrated young Teagan and each rolled against her sweet sweet spot, James tongue resumed it's well made licking and flicking at the young woman's clit. Eyes staring at Teagan as he wanted to see her scream for him.

As the young woman was being lulled into relaxation, she suddenly felt another finger penetrate deep inside of her, stretching her virginal opening, teasing the delicate skin. Slight pain raked through her, but it was calmed by the sudden attention that James bestowed on her sensitive nub, that swollen pearl of flesh. Her back arched, and she cried out in whimpers as her legs trembled, and her hips wiggled and bucked; James' fingers were gripped and squeezed by the walls of her warm sleek sheath as the young woman writhed in ecstasy before him.

The woman breathed deeply and then turned to James and nuzzled her face against his bare chest and rested in his arms for the time being. &nbsp;“That was very indescribably pleasurable, James,” Teagan murmured against his chest and then kissed him there, long and lingering before seeking his lips. She brushed her lips lightly against his, sucked on the bottom lip playfully as her one hand leisurely explored his body. &nbsp;“Thank you for that.” Teagan whispered and toyed with the fine hair on his leg.

From years ago, Teagan knew James would not press his intentions on an unwilling woman, yet now she was naked with him, her body a sliver experienced at what he could offer her. A simple kind smile curved her lips, and she pressed herself against his body. &nbsp;“James, you are being too gentlemanly,” Teagan whispered, and demurely her hand travelled to his manhood, felt the heat of him, and lightly her fingers traced the length of his shaft as she stifled his words with a hungry kiss.

That feeling of loneliness washed over her like dread, and it was something in which she could not grow used to, and had no desire to want it.<br><br>As James pressed himself into her virginal opening, burying his stiff manhood deep within her, Teagan had drawn a long deep breath in, but did not release it; the initial pain of her maidenhead tearing made her unexpectedly hold her breath. Her nails dug into his back and she cried out for a moment before relaxing underneath her lover's body. Only then did she breath despite the burning sensation that needled her sex, despite the foreign sensation of being stretched full, and despite the few tears that watered her eyes, the Irish beauty managed to smile. &nbsp;“A bit of pain, yes,” she murmured and shifted her body to draw her knees up and further parted them to allow James more room to comfortably make love with her. Teagan then leaned up to kiss him fully on the lips, and dismiss the pain that was now numbing into forgetfulness.

				Being with a man intimately was very new to Teagan even though the opportunity to whore herself to many men was presented to her everyday, and everyday the Irish beauty scoffed at those men, sometimes swearing or throwing a rock at them. Her virtue, her maidenhead was hers, and hers alone to do with what she pleased, and offering, giving it to James seemed natural even though there was now a dull burning ache in her stretched sex. Her fingers traced over his muscular arms, over the few scars that he had, and soon she gently embraced him close to her so that she might be held while he claimed her, and released his seed into her. Through time, when she would be used to James' manhood being buried deep inside of her, Teagan could understand why the intimacy would be pleasing for the closeness of their bodies alone was delightful. With a soft whimpering sigh, the young woman brushed a kiss onto James' face.

A tender soft kiss, there tongues intwining as James held onto her, rubbed himself up against Teagan as they made love.

				Teagan was grateful for the gentleness that James afforded her. The kisses were sweet and loving, were sensually divine for never had the Irish lady experienced such intimacy, such life. It was a new found energy, that shared with another, and it sparked a union between them that could no longer be broken; joined by spirit they were. That in itself made Teagan faintly whimper and gasp for breath even though the love making was uncomfortable, had a tender burn that ached in her sex with every thrust, and she would endure it this time, and the next until no more pain was associated with it. Pleasure, then, she knew would come to her, flood her, and she was looking forward to that, and no doubt so would James.&nbsp; Languidly, Teagan wrapped her legs around James, and wiggled beneath him trying to puzzle together how to move with his thrusts, and for a moment she closed her eyes and let instinct guide her.

But the motions where building and there sweat mingled as James began to feel the heat, the warmth.. the need to fully join with Teagan.

				Slowly and awkwardly, Teagan began to roll her hips in rhythm with James allowing the man to assist and guide her. She noticed his breathing deepen, and a smile graced her lips as she recognized his enjoyment, his pleasure, but too, she wondered at how long she would need to endure the bitter-sweetness of their love making. Her virginal opening felt quite stretched and torn by his manhood, an aching tenderness swelling there, and truly, she just wanted it to end and have him hold her so that she might regain her strength. To be certain, once she grew used to him, the intimacy, she would experience pleasure for why else would there be so many children between men and women if a woman did not experience joy with such relations? Those thoughts slipped from her mind when she decided to trace a finger over his lips, and brush a kiss onto his cheek.

				James holding onto his new beauty, his love of his life he could only smile. And staring at Teagan as he moved in once more he saw the flutter of pain behind her beautiful lashes, sliding his hands around Teagan, staring at her slender fingers as he felt his hair being brushed away, his cheek kissed James picked up the pace a bit, biting his lip it wasn't long before he too groaned deeply, his hands holding onto Teagan. His warmth flowing out of him as he laid ontop of her, eyes staring down before he simply pulled out very slowly and held Teagan in his arms, "I love you Teagan..", he whispered before kissing her tenderly on those sweet lips.

				James had groaned and with that he buried his manhood deeper inside. Startled by that, Teagan gasped and wondered if James was in pain, or had not enjoyed their intimacy, and tenderly she embraced him as their love making ended. Afterwards, the beauty closed her eyes as she buried her face against him; the sensation of being stretched open and full still tantalized her nether regions, but the irritation and the pain subsided. She breathed easier and smiled when James spoke of loving her.<br><br>&nbsp;“You barely know me to make such declarations, James, but all the same, your words are far too kind.” Teagan told him, murmuring the words into the kiss before she deepened it.

				James still held Teagan as they kissed tenderly, brushing her hairs out of her face James drew out a long cigarette from his own pack and passed it to Teagan, "Such a fine night my love..", he whispered giving Teagan once more a tender kiss before he allowed his own cigarette to be lit. ".. tell me what you need.. and I'll make it happen..", he murmured softly.

				The cigarette was casually taken by Teagan, and she languidly stretched out on her back and stared at the ceiling. The tobacco had a calming effect on her, and she watched the smoke trickle upwards in the air in puffs bluish grey. As James spoke, Teagan stole a glance at him, and normally she would not ignore an important request such as the one he made, but womanly instincts nagged at her. &nbsp;“Are you certain you enjoyed yourself? You were groaning as if in pain, and it makes me think you should see a physician,” Teagan suggestively said, her voice rather quiet in the room.

				A roll of thin smoke curled from Teagan's lips, and she shifted to draw herself close to James quite unaware of the blood that stained her inner thighs. She welcomed the kiss, and then softly laughed at the man's words. &nbsp;“I cannot take credit for pleasuring you, James, especially when I have little to no idea of how to truly do that yet with my body.” Teagan whispered, and a demure smile grew on her lips. &nbsp;“I'm sure with time that will change.” She settled next to James and rested her head on his chest; careful, she was in not burning him with the ashes of her cigarette. She considered his statement.<br><br>

				"Indeed, all in do time my sweet Teagan..", he cupped the young woman's chin and kissed her tenderly before drawing back. He simply laid there, a small whisp of smoke running from his lips as he stared at the young body pressed up against him. Teagan, how many years had he loved her and never known. He shook his head softly, what a fool he had been to let her go..

				Teagan smiled into the kiss, tenderly returned the affection, breathing in the smoke that trickled from his lips until their embrace broke, and she settled near him. Her green eyes settled to soak in his imagine and she timidly smiled as he too gazed at her, but did so with a peculiar look on his face. She lightly laughed as she pondered what he might be thinking, but decided not to ask. Instead, however, she answered his one question of what she needed. &nbsp;“I want a place to call home. It doesn't need to be large or luxurious, but a lovely dwelling, maybe a cottage, where I needn't worry about rude landlords, where I can cook my own meals, do my washing in private,” Her voice trailed off into silence. It had been a long time since the young woman had a place to call home, and although she didn't truly mind the boarding house, it still was not hers.

				Teagan's thin eyebrows knit together, and an awkward yet delightful smile played across her lips even as James brushed a kiss onto them. Lightly, she responded, but more so, she was struck by the words that left her dumbfounded. &nbsp;“Really? You'd honestly do that for me? Buy a wee cottage for my very own?” She was in disbelief for it was truly the first act of kindness bestowed on her in years, and it raked guilt through her for she had planned to ruin the man. She realized at that moment that she would either have to detach herself from James and carry forth with the plans to ruin him, or she'd end up loving the man. She knew not what would happen.

				For a while, Teagan rested in James' arms entwined within them much like their cigarette smoke danced together and&nbsp; filtered through the air and their kisses too; sweet and lazily delicious they were . During those moments, those long minutes, there was comfortable silence between them, and again guilt needled at Teagan's mind about her wishing to ruin the man while he only desired to keep her. &nbsp;“James, I'm not the same woman you met years ago as I am certain you are not the same man. Please,” her voice faltered, &nbsp;“do not tell me that you could love me. I may not be worthy of it.”

When I first saw you, I knew you were the one for me. A fool I was when I allowed you to go, instead to claim you as my wife", James' sweet smile remained as he crushed his cigarette after finishing it.

				Teagan laughed, soft and melodious, and she shifted to sit upright in bed. Her eyes caught the bright blood between her legs, blood marred and streaked with a creamy whiteness on her innermost thigh, and for a moment Teagan was lost in thoughts. There were memories of her past which stirred in her mind, and the bitterness that accompanied them made her wrinkle her small nose; she looked again to James. &nbsp;“Unless you are a barbarian, I do not think that one can just claim a woman to be a wife, James. There is wooing and courting, and traditions of that sort which makes the heart grow fond,” Barely had she known about that life when she had met James that one night several years ago on a lonely stretch of road. &nbsp;“And it is just not you that has changed, James, but me. I've tainted my soul with sin, and little regret I have of it.” Teagan whispered, and left the bed. She had every intent to wash the blood from her, and as she strode to the water basin and pitcher, pain poked up between her legs, crawled in the delicate folds of skin and that in itself made Teagan gingerly wash.

				James came to her back, his large rough hands touching her slender shoulders as he stroked her. "Neither have I any regret for the Sin that is in my soul Teagan. But I loved you from the moment I laid eyes apon you those many nights ago. I should have taken you away then and there. Taken you as my companion first.. my love later. And my wife.. when you and I were ready..", he kissed her neck softly.

				A chilling sliver of a sensation, one that made her inhale deeply and made her heart pound in her chest,&nbsp; raced down Teagan's spine when James kissed her neck. She leaned against him and just enjoyed the feeling for the moment, that and the closeness, and on thinking of his words, she could not help but to smile. She knew had he done that, had he claimed her for his own years ago, her life would have been different and more than likely enjoyable in comparison to what she had experienced after she was disowned. &nbsp;“And do you regret becoming a decent man, James? An officer of the navy? Do you ever crave riding in the night, waiting for prey with that pistol by your side?” Teagan asked, and dared to glance at him.

Still there are times when my thoughts drift back to the days of waiting in the dark like a wolf seeking prey, eyes scanning, ears trained to hear even the slightest of sounds", he smiled softly, "I'd like a chance to do it all again..", he shook his head softly.

				The law, being protected by it, there was security and safety and somewhere along the line a misjudgement that one can have justice with that. People forgot, however, that justice was blind. How James ever became a lawful man, or unlawful then to lawful, was questionable and although Teagan was curious, she was not about to ask. That question, she knew, was for a later date and one after she got to know James better. &nbsp;“Never say never. Circumstances change and we do as we must in order to survive although sometimes decisions can be poorly made when under stress.” She leaned in close to him, and gently kissed him on the lips. &nbsp;“Will you come back to bed with me, and if you cannot stay the entire night, at least be with me for awhile?”

				Teagan could not help but to feel the pangs of guilt rake through her once more when James declared his love for her yet again. A strange smile, one marred with sadness, curved her lips and she silenced him with a kiss before he said anything more endearing. &nbsp;"Then let us go to bed and hold one another until dawn, or whatever we may wish." She whispered into the kiss. In the small warm room, one that now scented by them, of their perfume and sex, Teagan slipped into double sized bed and burrowed underneath the sheets.

				A small laugh left Teagan's mouth, a soft noise that filled the small room, and disturbed the tranquillity within it. She couldn't imagine herself looking beautiful let alone pretty with her mane of wild locks roughly tussled from the night's slumber, and a sleepy expression on her face. &nbsp;“James, you flatter me with your charming talk, you do,” Teagan whispered and then wiggled in his arms so that she was facing him. Her fingers stroked the stubble on his face. &nbsp;“You must have Irish blood within your veins for having a silver tongue and a damned good streak of luck for never being caught in the act of robbery.” She nipped his bottom lip and snuggled close to him.

				A blush grew across Teagan's cheeks and heated her as she was last night when she and James were making love. She had not thought of James being tender to every woman he robbed, and although she was not angered or jealous, it did leave her a bit shocked and flustered. She laughed, lightly, and then giggled like a girl. &nbsp;“It would have served you right had a man dressed in women's clothing, and fooled you, but then again I suppose that may have gotten a bit violent. It is regrettable and messy when something goes awry and one needs to resolve the robbery in bloodshed.” Her voice grew quiet as she spoke from experience, and then a smile played on her lips. &nbsp;“You were rather charming in a way though.”&nbsp; She nuzzled against him then, and kissed his jaw that was prickled with whiskers.

Lightly, the Irish lass kissed James on the lips. &nbsp;“Now, my question is when you might want to see me again, and if you care to know where I am staying so you might come and visit me.” Teagan raised an eyebrow and peered into the man's eyes.

The landlady is fairly surely, but under the right circumstances, and a little motivation, she can be agreeable. I'm certain she'll let you upstairs to my room.” Teagan told him, and snuggled closer. &nbsp;“And maybe you can stay for awhile.” she suggested and weaved her fingers through his hair tussling it.

A tender soreness still budded in her sex from her maidenhead being torn and ruined, and she thought the pain would lessen as time passed. She did, however, return James' kiss, one that was slow and lazy, and she stayed in bed for a few moments and watched him get dress. &nbsp;“You flatter me James with such talk, and of course, I do thank you for such compliments.” Teagan said, her voice low in the room so that any other people might not hear them. She rose from the bed, and began to search for her clothing. &nbsp;“Tonight then I shall expect you, and I'll forewarn the landlady.” Teagan told him as she slipped into her small underclothing and began to roll her stocking over her long shapely leg.

Slipping the papers into his chest pocket the tall man quickly went on his way.<br><br>When night finally fell James returned in his black clothing, knocked on the door at the house Teagan had located as hers and walked in, eyes scanend for an older experienced woman only to approach her with a soft smile.

				After Teagan and James parted their ways earlier in the day, she had slowly walked back to the boarding house where she stayed, and there in the kitchen she explained the importance of James in her life to her landlady so that they had an understanding between them. The landlady agreed to let James into the house, into Teagan's room, and to leave the couple undisturbed or more or less, let James have leave to come and go as he pleased. Extra coin was exchanged, and the landlady seemed not to object which pleased Teagan.<br><br>She had prepared for his visit that night; the room was meticulously cleaned with the bed linens freshly washed and dried, pressed, and wild flowers filled a glass vase that was nestled away on the dresser. It was a quaint room with the simplest of furnishings: a bed, dresser and a chair with a side table. Hardly did she have too many belongings, and those of value were stored in the cedar chest at the foot of the bed. Teagan, dressed in a gown of pale yellow, was staring at the fire which was barely burning in the fireplace when she heard familiar voices from below in the kitchen. James had arrived as promised, and Teagan's heart raced and pounded in her chest.

She decided to remain firm, yet as James kissed her upon seeing seeing her, Teagan melted. For so long she had wanted to be loved, to be desired, and he offered it all to her; all other men seemed crass and uncivilized by comparison. The lass held onto him as he spoke to her, and blushing, Teagan turned to look away from him. &nbsp;“James, you'll be spoiling me yet telling me so,” She murmured, and slid the bolt across her door to secure them in privacy. &nbsp;“But then again, it is a crime not to tell a woman those things too.” Teagan smiled at him, and drew her fingers over his face to feel his skin, to feel him. &nbsp;“And I missed you too, James.” She leaned in to steal another kiss from him.

				Smiling James kissed her back as eagerly, loving the words the young Irish woman spoke whispered almost against his lips. Eyes to small slits James stroked his finger across Teagan's soft cheek. "Now.. close your eyes, and receive your present", he smiled as he pulled out the deed for the small cabin, a red ribbon around it, and placed inside of the parchment was a ring, a green emerald stone inlaid in the midst.

				Teagan felt like a wee lass again receiving a present. It had been ages since anyone had given her a gift, and being obedient to James, the young woman stood before him with her eyes closed and a gracious smile budding on her lips. Although she knew what it was already, there was an endearing ritual that had to be done, and all of it felt wonderful. The paper felt thick in her hands, curled, and when she open her eyes, she let out a soft laugh, a giggle, and tugged the ribbon free of the land certificate. The deed, however, was not the present that fully caught her eye, but that of the emerald ring that tumbled out into her palm. For a long silent minute, Teagan stared at the ring, and then met James' gaze. <br><br>&nbsp;“Oh James!” Teagan barely breathed, and drew close to him. &nbsp;“It is ever so lovely. I don't know what else to say, but that it is lovely, heavenly in fact, and thank you!” She flung her arms around him and tightly embraced him which was accompanied by a long lingering kiss.

				Smiling James kissed Teagan back with eagerness, his hands embracing her young body. Eyes closed to small slits as there bodies rubbed against eachother, smiling he broke the kiss and stroked his fingers across Teagan's back, kissing her deeply afterwards again. He loved this young woman, seeing the look of pure happiness on her face now he knew that was a fact.

				A blush hinted at Teagan's cheeks after the kisses, from the heat between them and giddiness that she felt, and she nuzzled close to James. &nbsp;“Will you put the ring on me?” She asked, as she tightly held onto the deed. She knew she should have been more excited about the deed, yet it was the ring that surprised her the most, and was quite unexpected. Her eyes met his as they warmly exchanged looks, and she held her hand out to him not willing to take a refusal to her request.&nbsp;

"It's beauty pales in comparison to your own, but the ring is yours and suits you well", James said, smiling at Teagan once more.

				Teagan felt awkward receiving the compliment and knowing that she was being deceitful to James. Perhaps it would be best to bury the past, and yet a sliver of her absolutely refused to let go of the idea to destroy him. Emotionally, she began to tear, and she shook her head. &nbsp;“You are far too kind in saying so, James,” &nbsp;Teagan stated, her voice a whisper in the small room. Her eyes studied the ring on her slender finger, &nbsp;“And your gifts are far too generous. A proper lady would not accept such offers from man whom she is not married to, or related to, and yet it has been a long time since such loveliness was given to me. It is selfish of me to keep it, James, and so I must ask you not to fuss over me so,” Teagan said, and opened the nearby window to cool herself.

My light that I've found anew..", he kissed her neck again so tender and softly. "You are what I love more then anything..", his hands slid infront of Teagan, holding them pressed against her soft belly.

				Teagan sighed with pleasure as she felt the warm kiss on her neck, one which raised goosebumps on her skin, one that made her shiver, and deeply she breathed as James' hands roamed across her flat belly. With the words whispered sweetly in her ear, the Irish beauty leaned back against him, and rested against his chest to be held by him, to be seduced by his charm. She could not help herself, could not resist the charm he held with her, and she could not help but to enjoy the sensations that flooded through her body. They were delightful buds of warmth that caressed her spine, her breasts, her sex, and they pulsated within her and intensified. &nbsp;“James,” the woman murmured, and her thoughts were lost, his name being the only word she said.

				Teagan's fingers lightly danced over James', over those that held onto her body, and interlaced they did to hold his calloused hand. She shivered on feeling her earlobe touched, kissed, and she purred out a sigh before turning in his arms to look at him. Desire, she noted, twinkled and glinted in his eyes, a reflection of her own, and instead of answering him with a word, she leaned in and kissed him rather breathlessly. Within but a moment, the woman deepened the kiss, and her warm pink tongue sought his to caress and tease.

				At first, a hint of reluctance, just a touch, perhaps a passing fleeting memory of his wife before James' fingers slid into Teagan's hair, his fingers interlacing with it as his mouth opened. There tongues wrestling deeply as he held onto her, tongue against tongue, body grinding against body as he kissed her with lust.

				Teagan became lost in the moment, her lust for James overwhelming her, and she pressed her soft womanly body against him. His hardened manhood could be felt through the layers of her dress, and she smiled into the kiss that they shared. Knowing of his physical arousal, knowing that he could easily claim her made Teagan unbearably flushed in so much that she could feel the wetness pool between her legs and gather between the delicate folds of her sex; her body easily readied itself for James to penetrate her.

				Finally James broke there kiss and quickly slipped behind Teagan once more, his fingers as deft and skilled as they had ever been in his previous.. career choice, eyes shimmered as he tugged at the shoulder guards, slowly sliding them off, if Teagan allowed it, his body warm behind her. Like a furnace slowly burning from only the few remaining embers, embers that would surely light a fire within the Irish lady very soon.

				Teagan stood still before James and allowed him to slip her gown down over her creamy white shoulders and reveal her skin, her body, and the cooler air in the room danced on her flesh. It hardened her large pink nipples, but his hands were well heated and she leaned against the man so that his hands could freely roam over her and warm her, tease her body, and bring her into a further heightened sense of arousal. As she leaned against him, she shifted her hips, rubbed against him, caressed his tented trousers until her skirts slipped down her hips and she wiggled free of the garment. Teagan now stood before her lover in nothing but silk stockings and her smalls, and she offered a smile to him as her hands glided over his sides.

She tugged the shirt free of his pants and began to pull it off of him unless it was met with objection.

				Teagan rested her voluptuous body on the bed, the green, white and yellow patch work quilt hugging her curves, and she propped herself up on her elbow to look at James. His body, now unclothed and naked, had defined muscles from years of work, was lean, and his chest had scatterings of fine hair over it. Although older than her, the years set fine with him and him distinguished, and she could not help but to smile at his words.<br><br>&nbsp;“James, I'm not a poet nor will I ever be,” Teagan whispered, her voice sultry in the quietness of the room. &nbsp;“I can tell you though that the night I met you, I was torn inside for half of me longed to hang you from a rope from preying on me, and yet there was a sultriness to you. Your eyes gleamed with life, and your body was swathed in darkness like the night: beautiful and mysterious, an image most haunting and desirous.” Teagan murmured and turned to lay on her back. Her eyes closed before they opened again to stare at the ceiling.<br><br>&nbsp;“Many long nights I stared at this ceiling, and thought of you and did so as I touched myself,” The confession felt odd, and more so as her slender fingers slid over her own breasts, down to flat tummy, and knitted through her golden curls to find the precious pearl of flesh well hidden in the folds of her sex. Gently, she rubbed her fingertip across her clit, a soft sigh coming from her as a tingle of pleasure budded and formed in her body, and she arched her back to eventually look at James. &nbsp;“For years, James, I have thought of you, wanting you to claim me, wanting you to make love with me, and yet a nasty part of me wishes sweet revenge on you for ruining my life. I don't want that, not now, not when I know you desire to love me, and keep me, and do so as yours.” Teagan had made her peace, fully confessed to James as her eyes stared into his.&nbsp;

				Her testimony had brought a single tear against James' cheek as he approached Teagan slowly, his feet padding the floor of her small bedroom. His eyes stared at her beautiful young form before he went onto the bed himself, eyes staring into Teagan's, hands stroking her youthfull body. "And I have longed to be with you from the moment I saw you Teagan", he kissed her soundly, ".. for years I have longed to be with you, now.. I will be. Tell me and I will leave my wife.. my job.. I would start anew with you my sweet Princess of the Road", he stroked her fingers that where busy with pleasuring herself, helping them..

				The softest sigh came from Teagan as James' hands stole onto her body, caressed her, lingered on her curves, and deeply she inhaled, and deeply she enjoyed the pleasures of his hands, his body. Stretched out before him, she removed her own hand from her most private area to allow James to pet her there, to tease her sex, and she could not help but to part her legs further for him as a sweet blissfulness took hold of her body. Her own hands graced his body, touched him, and she gave him the gentlest of smiles. &nbsp;“I will not ask you to leave your wife or any child you might have, James. A real man does not leave his family, and so you must live with your choice you made as will I. It is what was chosen for us.”

				The penetration, as gentle as it was, as quick as it was, regardless of that, it was still tender for the Irish beauty. The pain, however, was only a dull ache in comparison to the claiming of her maidenhead, and the sensation of having a fully erect and thick member within her was still new and overwhelming. She tried to relax, and her legs parted further for James to nestle against her, to make it easy for him to move while they made love. For that moment though, the couple was still as James stroked Teagan's hair, soothed her, and in return, she leaned close to him and kissed his lips, fully, eagerly, yearning to grow used to being his mistress. Teagan had no doubt that she had much to learn, but in time James would teach her, and she would be more than willing to learn.

Slowly, Teagan moved her hips, rocked gently forward as James thrust into her, and rubbed her sex against him which teased and delighted her. She lightly giggled at the new sensation, and then she chose to suck on James' earlobe which was close to her. Her tongue was hot against his skin as was her breath; her hips, continually moved with James, in rhythm, a comfortable slow pace to ease her into womanhood. &nbsp;“Is this better?” Teagan murmured in his ear, and brushed her nose against his cheek.

				With the deeper thrusts, Teagan's breathing became ragged and was punctuated by breathy sighs and hushed whimpers. Moving with James, moving as one being, Teagan's hands slid along his skin to explore him, to feel what she could not see immediately before him; her hands lingered on the small of his back where it curved to his buttocks. Her fingers kneaded his warm skin, trailed along him soothingly, tenderly, her eyes meeting his gaze and she could not help but to smile. &nbsp;“The tenderness and discomfort that I feel, that upon your entry of me, it will go away, will it not James?” &nbsp;Teagan asked, her voice quiet, and but a whisper. The Irish beauty wanted to fully enjoy their time together, and although it was a question she should have asked another woman, she had no close womanly friends. She had no one, really, but James.

His breath was hot against her ear, and she momentarily shivered, and a shiver that spoke of her delight. She wiggled underneath the man, her luscious breasts teasing his chest, playing along the thin scatterings of hair. The Irish beauty rested for a moment, stopping all her movements, solely feeling James plunge deeply into her womanhood, and only then did Teagan wrap her legs around his waist to draw her closer to him. Delicately she began to move again, and kept pace to James; her breathing deepening into pants.

				Where Teagan might be learning the older and more experienced James was surely happy to teach such a one, her long slender legs wrapped around his waist made him tremble inside of her. Panting hot breaths into his ear and face made his eyes close as he fucked Teagan now for all he was worth, the rubbing between them, the pace that James set the young woman would be hard-pressed to follow. But he was so close and James couldn't hold back what he wanted to do, thrusting in, grinding deep inside of his love before pulling out and slamming himself back in.

				James, she heard, lowly groaned and as he quickened the pace of his thrusts, penetrating deep within Teagan, the brass headboard banged against the wall and the bed creaked. A blush coloured her Teagan's cheeks, embarrassed that others would know of James making love with her, vigorously, and although she was not ashamed of it, she did consider it a private matter. Her landlady, no doubt, would mention this to her; the pace was forgotten amongst these thoughts, and instead, Teagan braced herself for James' release. She drew herself close to him so that her body was perfectly formed against his, and she whimpered and cried out each time he delved into her body, enjoying her.

				Teagan felt the last hard thrust, heard a grunt and groan from James, and then felt a surge of wetness deep inside of her. For moments the couple were quiet as they remained still, holding one another; their breathing tried to regulate as did their racing hearts. With tenderness, Teagan stroked James face and kissed him lightly hoping that he was well, hoping that he enjoyed himself, and this closeness they shared. &nbsp;“Will you stay with me for awhile?” Teagan finally asked, not requesting the full night; his wife, she knew, would fall suspicious of him otherwise.

				James breathed easier now, finally after his heart stopped racing like a horse's, her beautiful face coming into full view once more as he stared into Teagan's eyes. "Offcourse I'll stay with you Teagan..", he smiled and kissed her deeply and fully. Rubbing himself against her.

				Teagan smiled at James, at the answer he gave her, and she swathed the two of them in the blankets to only curl up to him afterwards. Nestled close to him, Teagan enjoyed the warmth from his body, the closeness, and she smiled as she encircled his arms around her. &nbsp;“Just for awhile, James, at least, after all, you've other duties to attend to,” Teagan murmured, catching sight of the new ring she wore. It was lovely, and as she stared at it, the Irish beauty had to wonder about it's previous owner. Retired from the profession or not, James had been a highwayman.

				That ring those was far from a highwayman's treasure, he smiled and stroked her cheek as he saw her eyes rest on the ring. "An heirloom of my family, to be given to the woman I loved my mother always said", he kissed her softly, "and right now.. there's no more important duty then being here with you.. my love", he kissed her once more.

				<em>Did his wife know of the ring? How could she not?</em> The two thoughts roamed in Teagan's mind after James had whispered those words in her ear, his breath warm as was his body against hers. She never mentioned her thoughts to him, however, and part of it was not wanting to know in case she did not like the answer. Teagan did, however, turn and snuggle deeply into his arms facing him. &nbsp;“I just do not need your wife to become suspicious of her husband, out two nights in a row, coming home a little after sunrise. If I were her, I'd put you in your place.” Teagan whispered, and lightly brushed her nose against his before her lips caressed his, smiling into the kiss. &nbsp;“It's best not to think of a woman as naïve, James, besides, in two hour's time there should be a merchant's cart traveling just on the southern outskirts of town.” she smiled at him needing not to explain the rest.

				Smiling James nodded and kissed her tenderly, he waited for another hour, holding himself with Teagan before they both slipped out of bed. As he was dressing himself the former outlaw stared at his lover, a small look of sadness on his face. "How I long to go with you Teagan..", he smiled, helping her get into her clothes. Tying her boots, straightening her gloves. ".. I suggest you use your new home.. it's near the main roads.. perfect for raids..", he kissed her again deeply. Wrinkling Teagan's clothes on her butt as he groped her softly before breaking and walking away. "Tomorrow I'll visit you.."

				The kiss ended leaving Teagan feeling suddenly cold as James said his final words. &nbsp;“The cottage then.” She added before James completely left her alone to her own devices. The Irish beauty took a moment to slip into a long riding coat, one that loosely hung from her and shrouded her in darkness like the velvety skies of night. She left her humble room, the boarding house to claim her mare, and from there she rode out through the woods weaving around trees until she sat near the crossroads awaiting the merchant shipment in the wagons.<br><br>An hour would pass. A shot in the dark would be heard, one that would rumble through the night to disturb the tranquility, and one that would begin the success of a robbery. It was not gold or coin or gems that the Irish woman took, but that of linens, white lace linens from Ireland, and other oddities such as tea, candies, silverware and the fineries that a house should have; her cottage would be furnished well, and with the comfort of a lifestyle she used to know.

				The raid was succesfull nothing went wrong and nobody came looking for there goods, yet, even so when Teagan moved into the home. The very next day while she was still in bed there was a soft knock on the door, a woman's voice. It seemed soft and tender, "Good Morning, I'm Janice Elroy. I heard you were moving in", if Teagan were to open the door she would be greeted by a well formed woman, her blond hairs hanging in natural curls across her shoulders. Brown eyes staring at her and the woman clutching a basket, it smelled like food..

				Teagan heard the knock on the door, and stirred in bed, one that was rather makeshift; a pile of quilts on the floor before the fire that had burned down to nothing but mere ashes come morning. Groggily, the Irish beauty stretched, scratched at her hair that hung loosely about her shoulders, and still dressed in the clothes from the night before, Teagan rose to her feet. She was disoriented in the cottage at first, and the stranger's voice, distinctly female, made Teagan sober quickly from any sleepiness and answer the door. A smile appeared on Teagan's face. &nbsp;“And good morning to you, Ms. Elroy,” Teagan said with a stifled yawn, and she covered her mouth. &nbsp;“You must forgive me, my tired state, for I have always found moving to be a rather tedious and burdensome task, and needless to say, tiring. It is lovely to meet you though, and please, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Teagan O'Meara.” Teagan outstretched her hand, one that used to be soft, but now had callouses on it from the work she did, but then again, she was certain that Janice Elroy was not going to judge her. &nbsp;“Would you care to come in for a bit? Tis not in any grand fashion, my home of yet, but with cleaning and the like it shall be, but over time.” Teagan held the door open for the woman, politely, and she was grateful that she had the common sense to have the bedrooms doors shut, and the heavy curtain drawn between the kitchen and the sitting room. She could, Teagan thought, make tea, after all she stole some of last night, and did store it in the kitchen. It was boldly sitting out on the wooden table that was in need of dusting.

				Janice smiled and moved in, she moved slowly and slightly staring at Teagan. "My husband told me that a new neighbour had moved it, a good thing to have new neighbours don't you agree?", she placed the basket down on the table. It was filled with a cheese and two loafs of bread and a pair of tomato's, "Always bring gifts don't you say?", she looked around the small cabin. "Quite a beatiful home Madam O'Meara, what is it that a young woman such as yourself does?"

				Teagan cast a glance at the basket that Janice Elroy placed on the table, and she smiled. &nbsp;“Thank you, kindly, Mrs. Elroy. Your friendliness will be remembered, I assure you.” Teagan said and began to boil water to make tea. She was not quite prepared to answer the other question, and she gave a faint laugh. &nbsp;“And please, call me Teagan. Anything else sounds too formal between good neighbours,” Teagan gestured for the woman to sit, and she fetched to simple mugs. She studied the woman for a moment, a long sideways glance, and then she smiled. &nbsp;“A young woman such as myself is into acquisitions, preferably those from overseas; a fondness I have for anything Irish, but the business details are rather dull and dreary, I fear. I make lace in my spare time, something that my Mama had taught me, and has been passed down through the generations, however, I do hope to lure a man into my home and make a husband of him.” Teagan prattled, wondering if it at all sounded plausible. There was much truth in it and to be certain, her voice did not waiver out of fears or lies.

				Janice nodded softly, "That does sound intresting Teagan, you may adress me as Janice offcourse as well. But I'm intrested, I have never heard much of your country is it nice?", she sliced the bread and laced it with food, placing one sandwich down for Teagan and one for herself waiting for the tea. "My husband is a Navy Officer, quite a talented one as well. He hardly tells me what he goes to do, which I don't find odd, the hours he sometimes comes home.."

				Teagan was slowly opening the tea when a sudden realization overcame her of who this woman was, and loose tea poured over her delicate hands onto the counter and the well washed wooden floor. Hands trembled, and Teagan placed her weight on them for a few moments before Janice could notice, and she nervously laughed. &nbsp;“Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Teagan you are a clumsy lass for spilling such expensive leaves.” Gingerly, Teagan wiped the leaves back into the tin and smiled at Janice. <br><br>&nbsp;“I haven't seen Ireland since I was wee, Janice, but the fields are lush and green like one can never imagine, and the sheep, they are impossible huge; the wool just drapes from them. It is really what I recall.” Teagan said, and scooped the leaves into the teapot. She sat at the table, and gestured for Janice to follow suit. <br><br>Teagan bit into her sandwich and slowly chewed her food. After swallowing, her fingers fidgeted with the plate. “You must get lonely, Janice, for I have always thought that the Army and the Navy were nothing more then gentlemen's club when one is not at war, at least for the officers. Perhaps it is fortunate that I am not married because I would demand too much of my husband's time. You must be extraordinarily patient and forgiving.” Teagan offered her a polite smile, and bit into her sandwich again. It would be a few more minutes before the tea was actually ready.

				Janice raised her eyebrow, strange that at her mentioning her husband this young woman had dropped her tea, still she smiled and waited until Teagan again joined her with sitting. "Perhaps I am, but my husband surely provides for our family and our home. I have never complained about such things yet Teagan, but sometimes my bed does get cold. Then again, I'm sure you have not lain with a man either in a few years, being unwed", she smiled softly. Still believing in the christian laws about not having sex before marriage.

				Teagan soon rose to see if the tea was steeped,&nbsp; and on looking at the brown hue liquid, Teagan poured two cups of tea. &nbsp;“There's a saying about Irish women, Janice,” Teagan quietly said, and in not knowing what the woman might want in her tea, she brought over honey and cream to the table. &nbsp;“that there are no whores in Ireland. I always found that comment to be particularly interesting considering there are whores throughout the world, but what sets the Irish apart from the rest besides being on an isolated isle is that the men hold esteem and respect for women. It's natural that a man and woman be together, but it's not natural for one to converse about conquests and intimacies.” She set the cup of tea before the woman, and smiled before she took a sip. Teagan's comment said much, but it also alluded to nothing.

				"I'm sorry for my.. lack of Irish Costums then Teagan", she smiled kindly, "Please forgive me", her eyes roamed across the young woman's form for a moment, she seemed long and slender.

				&nbsp;“Customs? No, Janice, do not fret over something that small.” Teagan softly said, and chuckled. She took a sip of tea. &nbsp;“It merely states that even if a woman and man do chose to be together as only a husband and wife should, that the man is still respectful of woman.” Teagan explained and continued to eat her sandwich.&nbsp; &nbsp;“But I assure you, I do not have men in my life. It's unfortunate, but I just do not.” Teagan leaned back in her chair and studied the woman out of curiosity. She seemed nice, and was pretty, or so Teagan thought and she had to wonder why James would consider taking Teagan as a lover. He had everything at home that he needed in life, and a pain of jealousy, of envy, pricked at her.<br><br>&nbsp;“Do you have children, Janice? Certainly they must occupy your time when your husband is busy with his work.” Teagan asked, having difficulty grasping the fact that this was the wife of the man whom she was bedding. Teagan drew in a deep breath and wished for something stronger to drink, but she dare wouldn't open the whiskey in front of Janice; it was far too early in the morning, but for the Irish, that hardly mattered at times.

				"I indeed have two Children lady Teagan, one from my previous husband before and one from my current one. A beautiful&nbsp; young lass and a strong hardy young man.

				Teagan laughed rather graciously. &nbsp;“I'm uncertain of that Janice,” Teagan remarked and watched her tea leaves flutter in the hot liquid. &nbsp;“It seems very natural to some women just like birthing children, and others struggle with it.” Teagan shrugged her lean shoulders and giggled. &nbsp;“Besides the fellow who ever marries me would need to have the patience and temperament of an angel, I think, especially in dealing with my Irish blood. I don't know too many men who are saintly like that, do you?” She gave Janice a wink, and drank some more tea.

				Janice's lips opened into a retort she couldn't possibly make within the realms of deceny, after all her son Harold was quite the hardy young man who did have the same kind of strength of character as her husband did. She smiled softly as she finished her tea, "Perhaps, you are known for your strength of character, or perhaps it's the troublesomeness of it", she smiled again, "Though I am afraid I must be off soon, It was nice meeting you Lady Teagan O'meara", she nodded softly and rose up. "Keep the basket, my warming gift", she turned around towards the door already.

				&nbsp;“Thank you kindly, Janice. Your generosity will not be forgotten.” Teagan said, and saw her to the door. After the departure, Teagan stared after Janice for the longest time, contemplating her words, her good nature, and the fact that she so easily could destroy the woman's life and her belief in family. <br><br>&nbsp;“Curse you, James Elroy.” Teagan mumbled, and slammed the cottage door shut then thumped it with her hand. Pain coursed through her knuckles as they cracked against the wood. &nbsp;“Ouch! Shite!” She swore and waved her hand to numb the pain as she eased herself onto a chair. Her fingers stroked her bruising hand as her mind became cluttered with thoughts, and all made her feel wretched, and guilty.

				The Cottage in the wood in which Teagan now lived did not have many vistitors but still there was the soft clip-clop of hooves in the distance, a horse moving slowly, perhaps a trader or someone just looking for a nice place to eat in the forest? Maybe nothing to Teagan right?

				Time had passed slowly, and Teagan had remained sitting for the longest time blankly staring at the window or the table. The plates of food had crumbs on them, and the tea had grown cold. She was pulled out of her trance, however, by the sound of hooves, and her hand went for her pistol.&nbsp; With the hammer cocked, the pistol loaded and ready for the bullet to pierce through flesh, her bloodied knuckled hand was steady upon it. Rising from her seat, Teagan paced to the windows to peer outside hoping that the merchants from last night's robbery had not traced her to the cottage.

				It was a man, though definately not one that Teagan had either robbed nor seen before, there was the stopping of horse hooves and the drop of feet onto soil, the jump though seemed to not have been extremly gracefull from the two steps after the drop to be heard. Perhaps a stumble, whatever the case, the man, who's face the light of the moon didn't wish to illuminate, slowly walked towards the house, even so Teagan could see the sword hanging from his hip, whoever it was though. James it wasn't his stance was far to uneasy.

				Teagan did not recognize the man as James; the stance was different, and no need there was for him to act mysterious considering he bought her the cottage. No friend of hers knew of her move, what few friends she had, and so it puzzled her, this stranger, and it set her at ill ease. With her Irish up, Teagan stood by the door with the cocked flintlock pistol in her hand, and she was more then ready to use it on the person who entered her home, and more then familiar was she with the term 'shoot first, and ask questions second'.

				The voice, Teagan didn't recognize and it perplexed her even further when the man had asked for her by name. Perhaps, she thought, James had sent him. She didn't know, but she lowered the pistol and opened the door a fragment. The pistol, she still held, but it was hidden by her body and the door; a good reflex she had earlier in her life and still maintained. Little doubt she had that if need be, she could still shoot the man. &nbsp;“I fear you have the advantage, Sir, of knowing my name, but I not yours,” Teagan said, greeting him, her voice clear. The clothes she wore, that of a man, that which did nothing to hide her form, were still from yesterday's robbery and they crumpled badly. &nbsp;“Perhaps you'll be a gentleman and enlighten me of it?”

				The eyes that stared at Teagan from the darkness of the woods around them were Silvery in this moonlight as the younger man smiled and nodded gracefully, his eyes did rise at the sight of male clothes on a female form. Especially such a beautiful female, "Oh.. yes my name, it is Virgil Elroy, son of mister James Elroy my father by marriage but not by blood", he smiled and bowed again before picking Teagan's hand, kissing it softly. "I was sent here by my mother to make sure you were safe before the late hours approached, truth be told, the woods themselves led me on a merry stroll explaining the late hour. If you desire protection Lady O'meara, I will certainly stay to give it.

				Teagan looked at the young man standing in her doorway, staring at him, studying him, his lean form. It made Teagan smile, almost blush considering what she said earlier in her conversation regarding men to Janice, something about her needing a saintly man, and now Virgil was sent to her specifically by Janice Elroy. Her smile only broadened when Virgil kissed her hand, and somehow, for some reason, Teagan felt a little heated and she nodded her head. &nbsp;“A vicious raider on the loose you say? Well then, a woman can't be too safe alone, and so it is best you tie your horse up 'round back in the stable, and come inside when your done.” Teagan informed him, her voice softer in tone although she did not know it, and she certainly blocked the view of the pistol from him. All she could think of is that she should have had a bath that day, and had dressed in something more feminine.

				While the younger man certainly didn't move with the grace that James did Virgil Elroy certainly wasn't a weakling nor a non experienced fighter, as he placed the horse behind the house he urged himself to gain control. Feeling already the effects of seeing such a beautiful woman at this time of night, shaking the thought he walked in. "The house is quite nicely decorated my lady O'meara", he bowed softly forward, smiling at Teagan. There was honesty in that smile, but his eyes couldn't help but for a moment linger on her soft long legs..

				Teagan laughed, lightly, as she stood before the kitchen sink washing dishes. &nbsp;“Your mother did say that you were a polite young man,” Teagan teasingly said, and gestured for him to take a seat, &nbsp;“And seeing to how I am still unpacking, my back rooms being a dreadful mess,” Teagan paused to glance at the slightly open curtain that separated the kitchen from the rest of the cottage. Stolen goods were scattered about, but too, it just looked as if she might have been rummaging for something in particular in her packed wares. &nbsp;“I must agree with her although she said nothing about your good looks, your handsomeness, and lasses, well, she must be tired of shooing them away from the doorstep of hers.” Teagan said, giving him a long look, taking in his appearance. He looked nothing like James, and a slight colouring burned her cheeks when she realized that she was comparing the young man to his stepfather and more so. &nbsp;“Put the kettle on, and make some tea for us. Might as well make yourself at home if you're going to be staying.”

But I thank you for your kind words, you are a radiant flower as well in a forest darkened without sun", he winked and stood up. Coming besides Teagan he filled the kettle with water before pulling a small bag of herbs from his belt, he tapped just a tiniest bit amongst the tea. The aroma was thick and wafty, a mix between Strawberries and Grapefruit strangely enough..

				The flattery, the compliment and the wink made Teagan blush, unknowingly, and as she washed a saucer, her eyes caught sight of Virgil standing near her, pumping the water into the kettle, and she smiled. He smelled nice, that of soap and a musky scent, an oil that was a little bit too alluring, and for a moment it distracted her enough to forget about James. She slipped the saucer onto the drying tray, and arched her fine brow when he removed a bag from his belt, placing herbs amongst the tea. The scent of strawberry lingered in the air, but it was blended with something else that she could not recognize. &nbsp;“What is that?” Teagan asked, peering up at the man, just standing below his shoulder in height. &nbsp;“There's strawberry in it, but what else? I don't recognize it.” Teagan slipped her hands into the hot water and started to wash the delicate cup that matched the saucer.

				Virgil smiled as he felt Teagan's eyes on his hands as he placed the herbs in, "Oh.. the second is a grapefruit, strong scent, but I downed it a bit, cutting it up and changing it around with a few wild blackberries I picked. It's really quite delicious, or at least I think so", he allowed the Tea to slowly reach boiling point and took his place besides Teagan. He took the drying cloth from her hands with a short snap, winking softly before drying the cup as well.

				Teagan turned to look at the water that the dishes she acquired were soaking in, flustered by the young man, amused by him, enjoying his playfulness, and she could not help but to smile. &nbsp;“Grapefruit? I haven't had that before,” Teagan admitted, the fruits that were given to her at the boarding house were local, plain, inexpensive such as apples, or wild berries, or peaches and too poor was she too seek out other foods, or more correctly, she was trying to hoard her money in order to save, be wealthy, buy a house, furnishings. &nbsp;“What is it like? Tell me what it looks like, tastes like.” Teagan murmured.

				Virgil took the dish that Teagan handed him, wiping it clean quickly as he stood besides her. He nodded at her questions, "The grapefruit is a yellow fruit with a creamy pink center, the taste can be bittersweet but I truly like the taste of such a fruit", he picked another dish from Teagan stroking his hands across hers as the kettle began to whistle softly. He turned to the kettle and turned the fire off beneath it, the air of sweetness hanging in the small cottage now. "I hope it's too you delight..", his eyes again roamed Teagan's body for a moment, she was stunning.

				&nbsp;“I have always enjoyed tart apples and berries, and soured candies such as lemon drops,” Teagan confessed, having the need and desire now to purchase some grapefruit from a merchant. As Virgil's fingers touched those of Teagan's, as they slid across the china, she practically dropped the dish, and luckily the young man was agile and reflexive enough to catch it. It was unexpected, their touch, and more than likely an accident, but it drew the Irish woman to the very present realizing that she had taken a bit of a fancy to Virgil, based on his appearance, his charm, and yet there was James.<br><br>&nbsp;“I'm certain I shall like it.” she said a little curtly, peering out the window suddenly remembering that she may have made James promise to come to the cottage that eve. With the robbery, with Janice and now Virgil, she could not remember. She shook her head at her own forgetfulness.

				Virgil smiled at Teagan as he took the falling dish and placed it down on the table once again, walking over he poured the hot tea into two cups as he looked at Teagan. His eyes again admiring her wry form, the agileness of her body the.. then he started to superimpose something. A darker cloak.. hooded face.. rapier at her belt and a flintlock as well. He nearly gasped, it seemed that old man Kendrin had been telling the truth when he said he got robbed by a lady. "Ahum. Lady O'Meara, your tea is getting cold", he said, suddenly feeling concious about where he was..

				Teagan had just finished the last washing of the dishes when Virgil spoke. Before she further attended to him, to her company, the Irish beauty took the lit lantern from the main kitchen window in hope that James would realize it was a signal of her being unavailable. She extinguished the flame, and in a gentle soft glow of beeswax candles that were lit upon the table, her and Virgil remained. She sat at the table and lifted the cup to her mouth, took a sip of the steamy boiled liquid, and swallowed it. All the while she sat in silence studying Virgil, and letting the flavours of the tea delicately dance in her mouth. &nbsp;“Tis lovely, the flavour.” Teagan said, shifting, the sound of the rapier's scabbard scraped along the chair. &nbsp;“Tell me, what does a gentleman such as yourself do all day? What sort of work are you employed with, and leisurely activities do you have or is it too scandalous to tell a woman?” She asked, a bit of a tease in her voice.

				Virgil smiled at the beautiful young woman, his eyes staring at her youthfull body as he shook his head. "No not quite Lady O'Meara, my work often keeps me at home, studying to be an officer in the army, I want to join the war effort I feel I could do some good there. As for leisurely activities, well guarding beautiful young woman like yourselves are offcourse always great", Virgil cast a smile at her as he pondered his question but asked her no doubt. "And what nightly dealings might you have yourself, that while still looking as beautiful as you do, have you dressing as a man".<br><br>In truth James had already seen his step-son's horse, something he was nervous about. The boy was a good tracker and he knew how to locate his prey..

				Teagan laughed at his question, a flood of lies and answers washed over her mind, and with nimble fingers she loosened the straps that held her rapier around her waist and the holster for the pistol. She put them across the table. &nbsp;“I think it would be terribly romantic to say I was a highwayman, all those tales written about them,” Teagan began, her voice soft and serene, a whisper that fell between her and Virgil, &nbsp;“the women swooning, looking for that highwayman at night so that she may be robbed by him so that she may be in his presence, hitch up her skirts,” Teagan looked at her teacup, at the warm liquid inside, and laughed. &nbsp;“I doubt, however, that a man would be swooning over a woman robbing them, but cursing her, and truth be told, Virgil, I was an unfortunate victim of a robbery about six years ago.” Teagan's voice faltered, and in being a woman, in working her wiles, she glanced up at Virgil with glistening eyes; tears were moist in them, and one rolled down her face for a lovely effect.<br><br>&nbsp;“I was defenceless, and was forced to strip out of my clothes, and I was so angry and frightened, and ashamed. No man had ever been with me even though I was betrothed, a few months to my wedding, and you know, that man, that thief, he never touched me, but wanted to look at me. I was so grateful for that. I can still remember what he smelled like, the sweat, the scent of horse, the liquor on his breath,” Another tear rolled down her cheek, slid over her skin, and dropped into the cup of tea. Teagan brushed her hand across her face. &nbsp;“Mattered little though because I was disowned, my father and my betrothed believing me tarnished, my virtue taken.” Teagan rose from the table and went to the shelf where a tin of biscuits were, and she opened them and presented the chocolate coated shortbreads to Virgil.<br><br>&nbsp;“Not a romantic story is it? And so, with living alone, with having valuables in the house including myself, I'd rather dress as a man and hope I can intimate a stranger from my door if they are unsavoury.” Teagan leaned against the table, and drew a finger across the younger man's face, tracing his jaw, feeling the slightest stubble underneath his shaven skin. &nbsp;“And until I meet the right man to marry, it'll remain that way, and then I can truly surrender to being a woman for him, his wife and lover, future mother.” Teagan whispered, and slipped the pad of her index finger over Virgil's bottom lip to feel the softness of the skin. &nbsp;“You are here now, though, and so I needed pretend any longer, but feel protected, safe. Can I feel safe with you, Virgil Elroy?” Teagan asked, her accent a little thicker as her voice further softened, and in not waiting for an answer, Teagan left the room to wash her body. As she walked to the curtain that divided the kitchen from the living room, she pulled free the shirt from the breeches; glimpses of pale skin, that along her hips and lower back could be seen. She walked though the curtain, and into the living room to her bedroom.

				Virgil stared at Teagan, his eyes going to the belt holding the rapier and pistol. Staring at the beautiful long rapier and the well crafted pistol, staring at the younger woman as she explained everything she had gone through. The long tears that rolled down her face made the man grit his teeth, why did he have to draw the wrong conclusion. As he leaned in to say something Teagan returned to her words, the story coming out in full now. Taking the shortbread without really wondering why he gulped.<br><br>As she leaned in Virgil felt his heart start to beat a little thicker, feeling her still calloused finger across his rough light stubble. With every passing moment she spoke, with every movement her fingers made Virgil felt himself rise up in need to want to defend Teagan, he wanted to be there for her. To be the man she wanted, when she rose and walked away Virgil stood from the chair. "Yes.. Mylady Teagan O'Meara, I'll protect you, you can feel safe with me", his eyes caught the glimpses of pale soft skin, his eyes clinging to them before she jerked open the cloth compartiment and walked into her room. Leaving Virgil Elroy battling his emotions. He wanted to go in there after her, but everything he knew about deceny forbade him!

				Teagan had glanced over her shoulder as Virgil spoke, and the softest, most feminine smiles graced her lips. &nbsp;“I have no doubt of that, Virgil.” The words Teagan spoke were warm and matched her smile, and then she disappeared beyond the curtain to a small private bathing room. There she had drawn her bath water almost two hours prior, it steaming from the many buckets of boiling water, and the bath had cooled perfectly. She added some oil to the bath to keep her skin supple and soft, then she added perfumed milks to make the bath creamy. Stripping naked, the beauty of a woman slipped into her bath and after moments of soaking, she realized she had forgotten her tea. <br><br>&nbsp;“Virgil,” Teagan called out, her accent a little thick. &nbsp;“Would you be a dear and bring me my tea?” Teagan asked, and slipped under the water to cover her body delighting in the warmth.

				Virgil clenched his fists as he walked over, taking Teagan's tea into her hands before turning around. Walking towards the bath-room, sliding the curtain apart he stared at the naked form, whilst hidden beneath water, of Teagan. His eyes trailing her soft long legs, his hands trembled slightly before he turned to her, smiling, "Your.. Tea", he said with a soft smile as he offered it too her. "..you are.. very beautiful Teagan..", he said softly and huskily.

				Teagan reached for her tea, and tisked him; a quiet noise that emanated from her perfectly curved mouth. &nbsp;“Saints be with me, Virgil! You shouldn't be looking at me while I'm in the bath being strangers and all, and what would your mother think? But all the same, I kindly thank you for the compliment.” The lilt was soft, tender as she spoke, and she turned to raise the cup to her lips to take a drink. Water splashed over the tub as she rested her ankles on the edge to fully recline and relax. The shapely limbs were exposed but her most private areas disappeared into the water.

				Virgil immediately turned beat-red as he coughed and nodded, "Aye, sorry for looking..", his eyes again trailed at the ankles, then those shapely long legs. His hand clenched at his side, a large buldge forming between his legs as he stared at the beauty that was laying in the tub. His mouth grew dry, ".. I should.. get going..", he said, soft.. and really in a tone that made Teagan sure he wanted to stay..

				The blush on Virgil's face, the indecisiveness of him not knowing where to look, it made Teagan smile behind her tea cup that was sacredly held to her lips. When he spoke of leaving, however, Teagan lowered the cup noting there was something in his voice, a tone, which betrayed his true self. Her bright eyes stared at him. &nbsp;“Your mother sent you here to protect me, and now that you've seen me in the bath naked as a Jay bird, you wish to leave? Jesus, Mary and Joseph! What does that say about me as a woman? Not much, I tell you! Can't keep a man interested in me, that is what it tells me.” Teagan said, her accent thick and held a bit of a tease to her voice. She arched an eyebrow at him to further fluster him.<br><br>&nbsp;“And what are you going to tell your ma when you go back home?&nbsp; I left Miss O'Meara naked and unprotected while she had a bath to come back home because I can't stray from your apron strings. No, Mr. Elroy, I believe you will be staying like it or not.” Teagan insisted, and then took another swallow of tea to dismiss the conversation. The boy was being silly and difficult at best.

				"Then perhaps..", Virgil said at the rough and uncalloused words that Teagan spoke, ".. there needs to be more room in that bath?", he unhooked his own belt, the rapier landing on the floor. Everything he knew forbade the thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't resist, he couldn't. The sight of those long supple legs, toned to perfection, he was mad with lust as he took off his shirt, the rough manly features of his strong young body revealed. "And I'll be telling my ma little of what happened here.. I'm sure..", gulping her stepped to the front of the tub, taking hold of Teagan's ankle before his other finger started working on her lower calve, massaging it as he stared at Teagan, still blushing.

				As Teagan remained in the bath with her back towards Virgil, her long legs out for display, as she finished her tea, she heard the familiar sound of a rapier in its scabbard being dropped to the floor...and the words about making room in the bath. She did not mean to compare the men, James and Virgil, but both were bold as brass; a reflection of father and son although the son held a certain sweet shyness and modesty that was adorable, and something James lost a long time ago. Of course, too, Teagan was equally as cheeky, and she needed Virgil to like her, needed a reason to visit the Elroy house to catch a glimpse of James, but too, there was a fear that she would fall for the young man and forget about her former highwayman. She didn't view that as bad thing considering James was married, considering that more than likely a divorce was questionable, and those thoughts ended when Virgil touched her ankle.<br><br>&nbsp;“You don't be telling your Ma because you know this is forbidden by the church, by society, and I'm sure your Ma can wield a switch well even though you are a man.” Teagan whispered, her tone of voice teasingly soft, and stretched her arm over the edge of the tub to put the cup onto the floor. To be certain, the young man caught glimpses of her breasts, and she soon pulled those long limbs into the bath and peered at him. She pushed a blonde lock of hair from her eyes. “The water is still warm, but be forewarned Virgil, that my company will spoil you for others.”

				Virgil stared at the beautiful young woman in the bathtub infront of him, he nodded at what she said. Then smiled, "Other's company be damned Lady O'Meara, you are all the company one man could ever wish for..", he also quickly undid those pants. Slowly tugging them down, his boots already having come off. When he was standing there in his breeches he gulped, staring at the lovely nymph in the water he hooked his fingers into the breeches and pulled down. A beautifully upwards curved member stood at the ready, quite long and thick. Gulping Virgil approached the tub slowly and tried to slip himself into it. Moving his own legs underneath Teagan's.. smiling he looked at her, "..Perhaps I can wash your legs?", he said, his face burning redly.

She noted the muscles of youth, well toned with sun kissed skin, and indeed, her eyes glanced at his erect member, thick and heavy, that drowned in the warm water. <br><br>&nbsp;“Perhaps you can, yes,” Teagan whispered and leaned close to him. The tip of her nose caressed his cheek and she breathed in his scent. &nbsp; “but I was hoping you might be a little more adventurous then that unless, of course, you are not an adventurous sort of man.” Her breath, that which smelled of his tea, was warm against his skin. &nbsp;“Are you adventurous, Virgil?” The words were whispered in his ear, and she brushed her tongue along his earlobe, tasting him.

I hope I can have a good teacher..", he whispered into Teagan's ear before leaning in and kissing her smooth neck.

				Teagan flushed at the very idea that the young Master Elroy was a virgin, sweet and innocent, polite and moral, a considerable man for any woman, and in knowing that she, herself, had recently lost her virtue, she was at a loss of how to teach Virgil anything. A slow smile curved her lips, and she nuzzled her nose against his warm cheek. &nbsp;“Why, Mr. Elroy, to be fair and honest with you, I have never bathed with a man before, and being more honest with you, I do not think I can be your teacher or more correctly a good one for I have only reclined twice for a man.” The near virgin confessed, and breathed in his sweet scent before trailing a kiss there and nibbling tenderly along his jaw. &nbsp;“Perhaps it will be more of a test of patience, and learning between us.”

				Teagan's fingers slid across Virgil's face, felt the warm flush of his skin, the smoothness of it and she purred with delight not only at her caresses, but at the sweet sensations that Virgil's hands brought her.&nbsp; His hands and fingers roamed over the shapely curves of her bottom, timidly explored her body, and Teagan shifted so that his manhood was no longer awkwardly pressed against her, no longer uncomfortable against the delicate folds of her sex as they kissed. Long and lingering those kisses were, and she nipped and teased his bottom lip, sucked on it and eventually she parted her lips and her tongue found Virgil's to caress. As heat overwhelmed the Irish beauty, blushed her skin, flooded a blossoming arousal through her that made her nipples hard and her core weep. Teagan parted her legs, straddled Virgil, and with boldness she placed his fingertips upon her swollen bud of flesh that allowed her vast pleasure, and guided him, encouraged him, to stroke and pet her there. She sighed near his ear, her breath warm against his skin. &nbsp;“Very very gently, Virgil, explore as you desire.” Teagan whispered, feeling his chest, the outline of muscle and her hand roamed lower to play with the curly hair that adorned his cock.

				Virgil moved and petted across where Teagan allowed him to go, they were like two young teenagers exploring eachother for the first time. Which wasn't far from the truth actually, kissing her softly Virgil's finger softly rubbed across her swollen bud of flesh, feeling Teagan rubbing against him every time. "You smell soft and delicious.. I Teagan.. your beautiful..", he whispered, eyes closed to small slits as his body trembled at the feel of her smooth hands, the feel of her fingers on his hair below..

				Virgil's fingers slid over her bud of flesh, stroked it between his fingers, and the caresses, the touches, made Teagan press her voluptuous body against the young man as she hungrily kissed him, nipped at his lips. She purred with a heavenly bliss as shivers and tingles danced along her spine to stretch from head to toe, and they heated her body, her blood, and slowly burned a deep arousal within her. As the sensations began to overwhelm her, Teagan's fingers weaved in Virgil's springy hair, and they curled around the thickness of his shaft and slowly stroked his length. She peered into his eyes that looked dreamy and sultry as his own blood was heating with lust and desire, and she could not help but to smile. &nbsp;“If we had any common sense, we'd move to some place more comfortable, with more room,” Teagan lowly murmured, and trailed fingers along his well formed body.

				As if told by a command Virgil's fingers moved to underneath Teagan's full firm buttocks as he lifted her up, his sizeable erection beating softly between the two of them as he stepped out of the bathtub and walked her towards the bed he had seen, only.. he didn't get that far, making a slight tumble he went onto his knees in the middle of the room and with his lust addled mind, this seemed good enough as well as he kissed Teagan again, hungrier now then before. Fingers running along her sides, his erection rubbing against her soft lovebutton now as he stared at Teagan.. oh he wanted her..

				In the midst of the room not even six feet from the bed, Virgil had fallen to his knees upon the fine wool area rug, and luxuriously reclining before him, Teagan rested. Her legs, slender and shapely, parted for the young man more than willingly as they hungrily kissed, their bodies needing and yearning for one another, and on feeling his rigid cock bob against her warm weeping sex, Teagan exhaled a long breathy sigh. Her back arched, and adjusting her body to his, shifting his cock so that he could easily penetrate her at his own will and desire, the Irish beauty pulled him closer with her legs so that Virgil toppled onto her. Only then did she kiss him deeply, wrapping and weaving her fingers into his hair, and enjoying the feel of his body against hers.

				The youth was strong and well-formed from no doubt years of work that he had done in both the town and around the house, Virgil's eyes staring down into Teagan's irish eyes as he gulped softly, feeling himself pressed against her soft wet center he finally surrendered himself fully to Teagan. Following her sweet mouth down the path of damnation as he slipped in, a hot gasp from his lips as he penetrated her, body shuddering softly before he continued to rock back and forth. "Your beautiful..", he whispered softly into Teagan's ear.

				Teagan's warm hands slid over Virgil's shoulders and back, caressed his skin, and settled on the swell of his buttocks, and easily she felt the muscles working themselves as he penetrated her. The sensation of the piercing, the feel of Virgil's swollen heavy cock entering her narrow almost virginal passage made her gasp with pleasure, moan, and she rocked her hips to move with the young man, seducing him further onto the path of pure carnal lust. &nbsp;“Slow and easy, Virgil, or else you'll spill your seed too soon,” Teagan murmured in his ear; the complaint heard of by Teagan, but never experienced. As she was about to say something else, the words slipped free of her mind as Virgil commented on her beauty, and she deeply blushed, but not before she draped her legs around his hips and waist to hold him near her. &nbsp;“So are you, my dear man.” She leaned up and sucked on his lower lip, playfully nipping him and drawing him into a deeper kiss.

				Moaning softly into those deep kisses between them, hands running over Teagan's warm soft body his eyes closed Virgil's hips moved back and forth, filling and unfilling inside of his lover. His body warm to the touch, moving and grinding together with her. Even so the spilling of his seed may yet come to soon, even so, what can you expect when your first lover is such a beautiful young woman. Her sweet words caressing your ear, her tongue softly probing against yours.

				As Virgil and Teagan continued to make love, their hands roaming and seeking and caressing, their hips meeting and hugging one another's, their bodies united as one, the Irish beauty trailed a line of light lingering kisses over the young man's jaw and neck. The taste of his sweat, and the faintness of soap on his skin budded in mouth, warmed her tongue, and a purr, long and luxurious came from her; the muscles of her sleek sex squeezed and gripped his member that swelled and throbbed within her. She hoped he would stay the night, hoped to feel his delicious cock carve into her at least once more. Her adoration for his lean young muscular body was apparent, and his gentle personality she too adored. She nipped at his earlobe. &nbsp;“Please stay with me tonight, Virgil, please.” The soft begging lilt of her voice was warm against his ear, and equally so were her legs that wrapped around his waist to draw him closer to her.

				When Virgil finally sheathed himself again and heard Teagan's question he groaned, "Yess...", then pantingly, stared into the woman's eyes, ".. off course I'll stay with you.. my love?", he asked very tentatively staring her softly in the eyes. He knew that he would be completely and utterly devastated if she said no, or looked away or did anything not to give her the love back that he so eagerly gave her.

				Teagan delicately caressed and bathed Virgil's face, framed him within thin hands, and she smiled up at him, leaned closed and breathed out words against his lips. &nbsp;“Thank you.” Like honey, the sweet thickness of her kiss leisurely poured upon his lips, glossing the tender skin, tempting him into an intoxicating ardor that unknowingly could poison him for no other. Fingers weaved into his hair, gently tugged and pulled at his mane, knitted though it, and as her pelvis curved and formed to his, as her muscles tensed and twitched, as her sleek passage gripped and milked his member, Teagan sighed out. Her nails carved down Virgil's unblemished back as ecstasy began to bloom within her very blood. &nbsp;“Oh, Virgil,” Teagan purred forth. &nbsp;“You feel heavenly within me.” She drew herself tight to him, and clung to the young man with the need to be exceptionally close to him.<br>

His hips starting to rock once more, having regained a second wind after he had already delivered himself inside of her once his fingers running through the Irish woman's hair before he once again kissed her deeply, passionately, sheathing and grinding inside of her warm flesh. His own blood quickening with every soft gasp, moan and twist of Teagan's hips.

				United as one, and entwined in passion, in lust, Teagan felt the man's fingers entangle and ensnare in her long silky tresses that splayed underneath her head. She sighed delicately, almost well sated as he lavished attention upon her voluptuous body, and with every thrust and grind, with every deep rooted impalement that Virgil blessed her with, Teagan felt her blood heat, boil, and flushed her body in a sweet pink glow. Her cries were heard throughout the cottage, and with the windows open, into the nearness of the trees and brush that sheltered the abode they floated; fluttered on the night breeze those cries did. Whimpering, she pulled herself tight to Virgil, faint from their love making, but she would not yield to slumber, to rest, until Virgil felt fully and completely spent and exhausted. <br><br>&nbsp;“I want you to feel not good, but as if you are in Elysian Fields.” Teagan whispered, her voice tender against his ear as she nibbled and gently sucked on the earlobe.

Moaning softly as he once again yielded his fresh seed, panting against Teagan's neck as he kissed the smooth flesh there. ".. you are so beautiful.. my Greek goddess", he whispered softly before kissing her earlobe. His own body slowly begging for sleep.

				The faintest of giggles came from Teagan, her body now overly sensitive to Virgil's caresses, his touch, but lightly she returned the kiss. &nbsp;“And it is said that beauty knows only beauty.” Teagan whispered and strained her body, shifted, and reached to pull the corner of her quilt so that the bed linens slid free of the bed and tumbled to the floor. On the heavy woolen rug where they had fallen, where they had yielded to their passion, they still were, languid and reclined, lazy from their love making, and Teagan swaddled them in comfort of the heavy quilt and a large down filled pillow she tucked under Virgil's head. For being a virgin, being without the company of a woman in any sexual manner, he had been tender, and more than a fair lover. &nbsp;“Now let sleep seduce you and cradle you in her arms, my dear.” Teagan murmured, softly kissing his cheek with affection, and she curled up to him so that she too could drift into the comfort of slumber and be lulled asleep.

Who in the far distant perhaps he saw as his wife, but for now, definitely as a lover, his lover.

				In a sound heavy sleep, one that was dreamless, one that was refreshing, Teagan rested cradled in Virgil's arms for the remainder of the night. Not once did the beauty move, the slumber being undisturbed until the morning light filtered into the windows and danced on the floor, fluttered on the quilt that was draped over the lovers bodies, and kissed their faces with warmth; songbirds chirped and a stir of wagons on the nearby road could be heard. Only then did Teagan open her eyes, lazily stretch out her naked body, and she turned to peer at Virgil whom twitched and flinched on feeling the sunlight on his skin. Before he opened his eyes, Teagan had peered at him, hovered slightly above his exquisite masculine form, and then she disappeared under the covers to welcome and deeply bury his waking manhood into her mouth; her tongue glided over his shaft, teased him, tasted the dried fluids of their love making on his flesh, and tenderly she began to further arouse him.

Only to feel something around him, a soft warmth, a hot wet warmth and he groaned softly, stiffening further now as he slowly awoke, his body warming greatly to Teagan's eager mouth..

				Slipped deeply, Virgil's turgid member did, into the warm moist cavern of Teagan's mouth, and pushed along her tongue it did, and grazed her throat, caressed her. Teagan bathed her lover's masculinity with her velvety hot tongue, let it curve and glide silkily over him, lapped at him tenderly, stroked the sensitive underside of his shaft, and suckled upon the delectable flesh. The Irish beauty listened to Virgil breath deeply, moan, and shift under her affectionate touch as he drifted further into a heated state of arousal, and as she to became wanton, she straddled his one leg and gently rubbed and teased herself against him to pleasure herself. She purred underneath the quilt.

Feeling her tongue once more against the hot flesh of him before he too leaned forward, his tongue slowly and softly pressing between Teagan's rose petals, running his tongue through the gorge of her love.

				Virgil's breath was hot upon her delicate folds and coupled with his tender probing tongue, it distracted the young Irish beauty. She whimpered with pleasure; her body tensed and relaxed, and her pelvis slightly moved, rocked involuntarily. She had to concentrate on focusing her attention on Virgil, the worship and affection she wished and yearned to bestow on him, and soon she succeeded at her quest. Her tongue lavishly swirled around the head of his swollen shaft, lapped at the sensitive underside, and she buried him deeply inside her mouth so that her cheek and throat muscles could caress and envelop him. All the while, her hand and fingers trailed between the young man's legs, cupped him, fondled him gently until they both purred.

More than once she had to pause so that an airy sweet gasp could flood freely from her mouth as an explorative tongue wiggled against her ripe wanton sex. The soft warm muscled wetness, the tongue, poked and prodded at her, caressed her, teased her senses and it took all of her concentration to focus on Virgil's member, to keep the steady pace of arousal accelerating within him. Her tongue, her cheeks, absorbed the taste of his salty prefluids, and delightfully she moaned and sighed, savouring the delicious droplets that eagerly tickled her tongue.

				Virgil's own feelings were much like Teagan's, his entire existence was drawn just to this beautiful young woman. The way she eagerly worked her magic on him, how her long tongue drew lines of fire into his skull. How good she tasted with every deep probing of his tongue, Virgil's body was warm to the touch and he was fast approaching the end of the line of himself. Not wanting to leave Teagan behind his thumb took up position against that tiny little pearl at Teagan's core before his tongue started digging for more liquid gold.

It fell into raspy shallow pants as Virgil caressed and massaged her silky pearl of flesh, the glistening skin that wrought pleasure deep within her, and coupled with the young man's tongue delving into her sex to savour the nectarous juice of her very being, the Irish beauty was in heaven. Shivers of pleasure, of delight, flowed and curved down her spine to blanket her body in tingles and intense desire. Her slender wiry muscles tightened as her heart pulsed and raced as her release, that carnal blissfulness, was peaking and all the while her tongue continued to ravish his manhood.<br><br>

The taste was foreign, salty, and Teagan purred delightfully as she savoured it, savoured the moment, and as licked the last droplet from the young man's cock, she felt a breathy sigh caress her sex, and the gentleness of it excited her alone to climax, to release the tension within her own body. She writhed and wiggled and cried out until she practically collapsed on Virgil. Fatigued, the Irish beauty tumbled beside him to rest, and she kissed his knee as she panted for breath.

				Teagan had no idea that a blush set to her cheeks when Virgil kissed her, that she timidly bit her lip and that her eyes sparkled with life when she felt the warmth of his affection bestowed upon her. Tenderly, she squeezed his hand. &nbsp;“Have an enjoyable day, Mr. Elroy.” Teagan said while she walked him to the door, and as the two young lovers departed, Teagan let her fingers stroke those of Virgil's, a soft lingering touch that silently told him of her longings. The door closed, and Teagan found herself alone with James Elroy.<br><br>"What did you do?"

In such short hours, so few, she finally knew the sensation, the feeling of love; not lust, not admiration or adoration, but love. It was exquisite and she relished it.<br>

				Eyes narrowing James' fist clenched besides his side as he walked over towards Teagan, her eyes, her movement. James knew what had happened, "Teagan.. how dare you be this way, you know damn well what you did.. he is my son.. maybe not of my loins but he is still my son. And you seduced him didn't you?", the eyes that looked at her now where burning with the fury barely held in check as the man's breathing grew harder. His entire body looking ready to explode..

				Teagan, with grave irritation, listened to the insulting words that James spoke and although her ire did not show on her face barely could she pour the boiling water into the teapot. As James quaked with fury, as his breathing puffed out ragged, Teagan had the ill fate of accidentally touching the surface of the stove which burned and seared her skin on her hand and wrist. The kettle was dropped and she swore under her breath as she cradled her injury. She pumped cold water onto it, and then shook the appendage as stared at James with disgust.<br><br>&nbsp;“Seduce him? Why I never seduced a man in the entirety of my life, James Elroy, and you know that.” She drew closer to him, and she spoke to him through clinched teeth as pain coursed and throbbed through her hand. She shook it again to numb the nerves. &nbsp;“Now instead of parading around like you're some tomcat in heat, yowling around me, turning me into a slut, wishing no other life for me except that of the other woman, something I am not going to be,&nbsp; why don't you go home to your wife? That good decent woman slaves for you, for your family, and that good decent woman is the one you need and should bed every night and who you made vows to before congregation and God. Turn around, walk away and forget that I even exist something that you did years ago on that highway.” Her eyes roamed to the door, a gesture for him to leave, to walk away from her forever and forget her existence, and for him to be a decent man. To further the gesture, and out of respect for him, Teagan gave James his family ring back, pushed it into his hand. She walked away from him then to find bandages to wrap her hand in, swaddle it; the scent of Virgil, of them, lingered in the air of the back rooms.

				James was glad that he didn't have his pistol with him.. or there'd be one less woman on the face of the earth because as Teagan walked away, the force of impact from the door shutting was enough to make the entire building almost shake. The still bristling James mounted his horse, "This aint the last you heard of me lass.. I'll watch you with my boy.. yeah I will and when the time comes.. your gonna be mine", he growled low and menacing before the horse spurred away. Leaving Teagan alone with her memories in the building still smelling of both her lovers..

				The cottage trembled with the slamming of the door, and it mimicked Teagan, her shivers that coursed over her fine curvaceous womanly body as James spat out his ungentlemanly words. It was fortunate for James that Teagan had not been wielding her pistol or else there would have been one less man on the earth, but never would she make a woman twice a widow; Janice Elroy deserved more to life than one of loneliness even if it was with the rascal James. She bustled outside, and saw the mounted man, the one who claimed her life so many years ago. <br><br>&nbsp;“May the devil damn you to the stone of dirges or to the well of ashes seven miles below hell and may the devil break your bones! And all my calamity and harm and misfortune for a year on you!” Teagan spat out, the words said in the native language, the Irish words fluid and thick on the wind. With it done and said, she fled inside, locked the door and drew the curtains to block out all memories of James Elroy.<br><br>&nbsp;“Christ help me!” She prayed out loud in a whisper, and collapsed onto the floor where she sought solitude to think.

				As Teagan slumped to the floor behind her the door opened slowly and in the doorway stood Virgil, his eyes looked broken. He seemingly heard it all, ".. is all you said true?", he asked, his tears barely held in check, there was no anger in his face, no unkindness there.. only sadness. Sadness for all Teagan had said he believed to be true.. if it was. He would die inside, he loved Teagan, but to think she would have done such things with James.. it made that love wither.. crumble..

				Teagan had wanted to fall into a fit of tears when she heard Virgil's tender lonely voice behind her, but she was Irish, and she was strong because of her blood, but she wished that she did not feel like Christ completely abandoned her then and there. Slowly, she nodded her head, and not being able to look at Virgil, she remained looking at the floor. She did not bother to rise.<br><br>In a tightened voice that was strained, one that held back sobs, Teagan finally spoke. &nbsp;“True, yes, Virgil that they are, and whilst I am in the midst of a confession, I will admit to highway robbery, the committing of that crime. I would speak more of that, but I fear you'd only me more then you do now, at this point in time, but I did forewarn you, Virgil. I did tell you earlier this morning that you were a sweet man, and that you should not make promises of courtship and marriage to me in case you may learn of some foul secret of mine and wish that you had not made those promises.” Teagan rose to her feet, and looked at Virgil once, looked at his handsomeness, and then she stepped into the bedroom where they had made love on the floor the night before.<br><br>&nbsp;“Best you leave me be, Virgil, and build a life with a better girl then one tainted by the hate of her past,” Teagan clearly said, but her voice trembled and she stood there and stared at her belongings. Easily everything could be readied for travel, and she thought Boston might be a place to settle.&nbsp; <br>

				Fist clenching Virgil stood at the brink, to walk away was to fall into depression and into despair, but to join Teagan was to invite even darker thoughts onto himself, he stood there.. pondering before he instead of walking away, he closed the door and walked into the bedroom. Giving Teagan the tightest hug, soft tears against her shoulder, "I love you woman, damn all the rest, damn what you have done. Damn what my father has done too you. I love you and I'll take care of you..", he sobbed softly before moving his face before Teagan's. Soft tears still on his cheeks as he leaned in, kissing Teagan deeply onto her lips as he held her smooth firm body close to his.

				Teagan had not expected Virgil to draw near her, had not expected Virgil to still confess his love for her, and tenderly embrace her as he did, and breathlessly astounded by the young man's forgiving heart, Teagan melted in his arms. The words were a luxury that the Irish beauty had not thought she would ever hear again from him, and the kiss, sweet and delicate, fragile like the moment between them was a blessing but no sooner had the kiss happened then Teagan fell into a fit of weeping. <br><br>&nbsp;“I'm sorry, Virgil. I'm so sorry. Had I ever known a man like yourself could have entered my life never would I have given myself to another, and never would I plague myself with such hate and revenge over the years, and such crimes that I have committed.” The words were softly murmured in his ear, strained, and with a low sigh she snuggled closer to him for strength and comfort. &nbsp;“I don't deserve a man like you to love or be loved by, Virgil.” Her tear filled eyes peered up in his and she weakly smiled at him. &nbsp;“I suppose I should tell you my plight from the beginning to this moment so that you truly weigh your decision, and by the end if you truly believe you can forgive me then let it be, and if not let us part ways and lead separate lives. Tis a long tale, one which I began last night with the highwayman,” Teagan said, and sat down on the edge of her bed, at the foot, and there she began to tell Virgil of her first encounter with James so many years past.

				As Teagan began to speak Virgil did not move from her side, his eyes though still lined with tears listened closely to every word, then finally when all was said and done, when the tale of Teagan and James was told, when her life was folded out before Virgil for him to see, to judge. All he did was slip his arms around her, pulled Teagan close and whispered those words of joy into her ear. "I still love you, forever Teagan. You are everything to me..", he kissed her softly after that, his eyes closing as they kissed. Virgil proclaiming his love for the woman he felt was worth it more then anyone else.

				The story had consumed the morning, and had left Teagan weary and fatigued emotionally; tears had streamed and flowed down her face often, and by the end, the warmth of Virgil, his touch and his words, were soothing. The kiss was endearing, tender, and Teagan nuzzled closer to the man who judged and weighed and measured her story, her words, and even though it must have been trying for him, taxing, Virgil could still forgive her and proclaim a love for her. It rendered her speechless, and barely could she offer the affection in return. <br><br>&nbsp;“As you are to me, Virgil,” Teagan managed to whisper, and through her tears she managed to smile. &nbsp;“And so what do we do now? Certainly James would not wish to tell Janice of his indiscretion for it would break her heart, yet I fear he may, or at least allude to my criminality and render her unforgiving to me. Moving to begin anew, it seems like running away, and it is not a solution, not really.” Teagan confessed, and glanced up at Virgil for guidance.

				"We stay, who ever comes Teagan, I will not let them touch you, I will be here for you, through everything that will happen", he smiled happily, "I will marry you as soon as I am able and everything is appropriate to the people in town, we must keep a semblance of a happy family. As for you, my Sister's older friends have a profitable business in town, selling and creating several pieces of artwork.. perhaps I could acquire a position for you there?". The youth smiled tenderly, stroking through Teagan's hair, "Everything will be alright.."

				Teagan nodded her head and leaned into Virgil to be held by him as he stroked her hair and made soothing promises of marriage, that all would be well. &nbsp;“If anything for your mother's sake we should make the appearance that all is well.” Teagan murmured in Virgil's ear, almost a coo of a noise. She pecked a kiss on his check then and stroked her fingers over the area in which she had kissed as if to rub the sweet small affection into his skin. &nbsp;“And to be honest, I'd rather retire from <em>business</em> so that I can make you a proper wife; establish the house, our home, a garden and no doubt eventually children, ours, will need care. Perhaps, however, I can sell the lace that I make, and the knitwear, and if the garden I make flourishes, sell vegetables and preserves. It's an idea to consider, and it would provide spare money for us.” Teagan added as an afterthought and then stepped away from him as she glanced around the cottage.<br><br>&nbsp;“You should also know that James bought this cottage for me, but I have the signed deed now belonging in my name. We should sell it and build our own home.” Teagan suggested, and thought of the possibilities of where they could build. Somewhere private she preferred, but she made no more comments allowing the information she just said sink into Virgil's mind, allotted him time to digest it.

				Virgil's mind was spinning with it all, even so when he finished his teachings at the academy he would be in the service of the army, softly breathing Virgil looked over everything in his mind. "Very well my dove, I will speak to the landowner south of town, he is an old friend of my mother and I'm sure he will have some place where we can live. Or build our own home", rising to his feet now and taking Teagan with him he shook his head, "While a rough life though, I wonder my dove, a farmer's life, would that be to much to ask. It is an honorable profession, one that with you at my side I would greatly like to take", he never had that much love for the academy, and while his life now. What he wanted most, was to be with Teagan.

				Teagan peered up a Virgil and a quaint smile adorned her sweet lips. &nbsp;“A farmer?” The words left her rather quick and almost in disbelief at first, and then she nodded. &nbsp;“My Papa made his money from breeding fine horses, and raising cattle so the concept is not new to me Virgil, but I must ask if you intend to be harvesting crops or raising livestock. Crops are harder, demanding, and unreliable due to nature be it poor seasons or more; drought, the cold, poor soil, plagues of insects or rodents,” Teagan moved from Virgil's side and removed a walnut box which was locked from the one dresser drawer. It was the money she made in New York City, all eight hundred dollars, a tidy sum that most people would never see in a life time but it did not seem like enough for her, for her past losses. She gave it to Virgil along with the key trusting him fully with it, and knowing the consequences if he robbed her of it, but too virtuous he was, too honourable, and she smiled at him.<br><br>&nbsp;“Now, you may have your heart set on that, I do not know, but I would suggest livestock, and not cattle or horses, but sheep. No one around here raises sheep, and they can be used for not only their wool, but hide and meat. My suggestion, my dear, yea or nay it as you will. I trust your knowledge of farming.” She drew quiet then and gestured to the box. &nbsp;“Consider it a dowry.”

				As Virgil looked at the money and at the motion of the farm that Teagan wanted more then raising crops the young man shook his head and smiled. "Your wish is my command your dove, if this is to be your dowry.. then I will use it to my full advantage. Please", he pulled out a hundred dollars for Teagan, "Buy yourself a dress and a ring you want my dear..", he placed the small box away before kissing his woman, his soon to be wife, ".. I will be back soon with everything done and arranged"

				Teagan studied Virgil's face, the expressions which changed from curiosity regarding the box to one of shock and awe and then to glee when he opened it, when he found the neatly tied bundles of bills and coins. As he handed her folded bills, something to which Teagan did not count. It was then that he told her to buy a dress and and the ring she desired; Teagan's facial expression changed, dimmed. A sadness appeared and then the softest of smiles curved her lips. &nbsp;“I won't be buying myself no ring, Virgil. That is unromantic, besides, a woman likes a surprise now and then.” Teagan delicately chided, and escorted him to the door for he had plans to leave, plans for their future home, their farm, their liveliness.<br><br>&nbsp;“Keep the box close to you. Don't be losing it.” Teagan said a little worried, and then wrinkled her forehead. &nbsp;“Wait! This isn't right. I feel like I'm sending you to be outright robbed by some bandit of the road.” She whispered and it was then that she placed her flintlock pistol in the holster and strapped it to his fine body. He looked like a boy who never fired one, a boy which was not made to wield that weapon, but it was deceptive look especially when he was being trained at the academy.<br><br>&nbsp;“Don't be questioning me about this, Virgil, please. It just makes me feel safer knowing you are armed,” &nbsp;Teagan murmured in his ear, and kissed his cheek. &nbsp;“Be safe and come back to me.”<br>

				Smiling softly Virgil nodded at her, she was right of course. Placing the money back into the box he moved together with his lover towards the door, smoothing his hand across her arm as he saw the wrinkle of worry come across her smooth face. As she placed the hip-pistol on his body Virgil ran his fingers across the weapon before turning too Teagan. "I will my love. I will", he leaned in and kissed Teagan deeply on her lips, then he left for the town. The thundering of hooves taking him away from the beautiful Irish lass.

				For the longest time Teagan stood in the doorway of the cottage, leaned against the smooth wooden frame, and stared at the winding dirt road that Virgil took to the depths of town; it was empty and void of life, quiet. It made her uneasy, but it was the midst of day, and the roads were safe, that she knew, and so she turned to peer inside the cottage that James had bought her. Indeed, her and Virgil would have to move for Teagan wanted nothing from James. After knowing Virgil, spending the long night with him, the idea of her being with James now, intimately, made her cringe. <br><br>The lingering thoughts of her revenge was in the past, too, for all had changed now, but the prodding of James' anger poked at Teagan, tormented her, and deep inside, she felt James would not accept the severing of their ties. A gloomy look darkened the beauty's face, and with a heavy sigh, she stepped back inside allowing the screen door to shut behind her with a light rattle of a noise.<br><br>Easily, Teagan and Virgil could sell the cottage and with that in mind, she studied her belongings, her property; she was not fully unpacked from her original move from the boarding house, and some rooms just looked messy due to that. She left everything as is, and then decided to have a quick bath to scrub herself clean for the day. The scent of Virgil faded from her voluptuous body, and his seed, their mingled fluids from making love, still trickled from her womanhood despite the cleanliness from the bath. <br><br>&nbsp;“Best get used to it, lass.” Teagan murmured to herself and sat down on the bed naked to dress for the day; a stocking she rolled up over her shapely leg, and many thoughts began to drift in her mind.

				As Teagan got dressed, half-way through it she was awoken from her Reverie by the soft whinnying of a horse, then another and as she perhaps went to see what it was Teagan was greeted by the sight that would put fear into her heart. James. And with James stood the constable and two of his deputies, all had flintlock pistols on there hips and one of the deputies also wore iron shackles hooked onto his belt.. this could never be good..

				Not only did it put fear into Teagan's heart, but anger, a cold bitter anger at the pettiness that James Elroy outright demonstrated, yet not for her, not for Teagan; hurt, yes, she was, but too, she expected a consequence for refusing James. It was the man's lack of regard for his son, the lack of respect for Virgil, and that the incivility, the hostility now abound resulted in one final thought: James Elroy had to die. <br><br>It was with grave misfortune that Virgil had her flintlock pistol, and yet perhaps a blessing, and too, the main sum of money now rested with a good man. For a moment, Teagan contemplated donning the rapier and driving it through the bastard, but seeing how there was truly no escape, and that an escape only made her appear guilty, the lass decided to continue to dress. The inevitable was about to happen, and she knew one man, one individual, that knew the entirety of her story.<br><br>Rising to the occasion, Teagan opened the cottage door, and greeted James Elroy. &nbsp;“Mr. Elroy, I wasn't expecting to have the pleasure of your company yet again this morning.” Teagan began, her accent thick, and she gave him a placid smile. &nbsp;“And I see that you brought company. Do you mind stating your business? Or are you going to be the coward you are and let them speak for you?” She folded her arms across her chest, just underneath her bosom, and desperately she tried to soothe the terror that was welling inside of her.<br>

				The Constable held a respective age of forty-seven and was by all accounts a just though hard man, he stared at Teagan as she assaulted James with her words. As the man was about to answer he held his hand up, walking over to Teagan he smiled softly. His black hairs were already tainted by faint grey locks, his body, while having lost some of it's youthful hardness was still strong. Dressed in dark clothes and wearing a long coat he looked at Teagan and her home, "Mylady, I am here on account of James, he has brought something rather troubling to my attention. He says that the robber that haunts our woods is indeed you, now troubling news as that may be, I shall not arrest you until I know it is truth", he smiled, his voice was warm and deep, "may I enter please?"

				The Constable stood before Teagan, his voice low and held a certain gentleness within it, and for an unknown reason, the man reminded Teagan of her father. Blankly she looked at him almost too stunned to reply or make a quip, but eventually she drew close to him so that the distance between them closed and only what Teagan spoke could be heard by the Constable. &nbsp;“Do not venture where a family will be torn apart by the truth. Janice Elroy does not deserve to be hurt, and in court it will be mentioned that James strayed from her, that he and I were once lovers, and that I denied him my bed when I met his son last eve. This is nothing but petty revenge, and scandal will befall the Elroy house, tear it apart: husband and wife, and son and father. Is that what you want, Constable? Do you want to see the title of this particular cottage, one signed over to me by James because I can produce it as evidence in court, and Virgil can testify, and it will be grossly ugly, humiliating to all, and scandalous. Besides, I've no weapon to rob a person with save for a rapier that came into my belonging from years ago and I do not know how to use it.” Teagan pleaded, her eyes beseeching the Constable's for an ounce of pity, of sympathy; the half truth was an endearing argument, and she felt relief knowing that she did not have a sidearm on her, that Virgil had it. Not being able to say anything more, the Irish beauty stepped aside to give the man access to the cottage. &nbsp;“I have nothing to hide and not a soul to hurt. Enter if you need be, Constable.” Teagan said, and then she met James' gaze. She could only wonder how this was going to end, but she vowed not to show fear or anger or any emotion that would truly be negative. She shook her head in disbelief and managed a slight smile.

				The Constable's eyes remained fixed on Teagan as she spoke, then he nodded very slowly. "Then I will investigate your premises Miss O'Meara, do know. If I find anything, I'll not care what happens to the Elroy family", stepping into the small cottage his eyes looked around as he went to investigating, checking every box and such. Finding indeed the rapier Teagan had mentioned he unsheathed it, "It is sharp mylady..", he murmured softly before sheathing the weapon once more and placing it aside as he went through with his work.<br><br>It lasted three hours, but when he was finished Teagan's house was more ruffled then it was, but the Constable, apart from one or two things that could have been belonging to one of the trader's that were robbed, he found nothing else.. "It seems that Mister Elroy made a mistake, James", the man came closer, his eyes narrowing at the Constable, "please apologize to this woman, she was falsely accused by you", James' eyes spat fire as he stared at Teagan and at the Constable. "No she wasn't, the woman is a seducer and a snake and perhaps worst of all, a thief!", he growled as the Constable moved to step in front of Teagan. "Control yourself man", "Control this!", the thunder clap that followed spat hot smoke in the air and blocked the world from view. Teagan could feel a sharp pain in her arm and a sound of what could only be a human body falling on the floor..

				A thunderous noise burst into the air, deafened Teagan momentarily, and as her eyes focused on the cloud of haze between James Elroy and herself, a surge of burning pain tore through her arm as the Constable collapsed before her. The body slumped to the ground, fell forward, and a pool of bright red blood flowed beneath him, seeped into the ground, and stupefied, Teagan stared at the dying or dead man. <br><br>Only then had she noticed the heavy stream of blood cascading over her pale hand; warm it was at first, and cooled when the breeze caressed her body: droplets, the same brilliant red, fluttered over her fingertips and fell to the ground. Green eyes, those of Teagan's, peered at her blouse in disbelief: the sleeve was shredded, and the linen was drenched in dark blood.<br><br><em>The bullet</em><br><br>&nbsp;“Why, James, how ungentlemanly of you.” Teagan said, her voice bizarrely distant, serene, and before another word could be spoken, the young woman collapsed to the ground. Her open eyes stared blankly at a black ant that was only inches away from her face, and yet darkness began to surround her as a wave of cold bathed her, then a wave of heat followed by trembling. She began to lose consciousness.

				When Teagan awoke she heard soft singing, almost angelic in its serenity and as she slowly woke up she could feel the entry and exit wound of the bullet. She was lucky, it hadn't strayed into any organs nor torn anything to shreds, when she came further too she heard muffled voices behind a large wooden door. She was lying on a sparse, yet comfortable bed and on the bedside table was a black leather bound bible.<br><br>Then it hit her, she was more then likely in the convent on the edge of town, if she checked beneath the covers she would find that her wound had been closed and that several layers of bandage where pressed around her smooth pale flesh.

				A white cotton shift she was in, one that exposed her lean bandaged arm; the strips of cloth were spotted with blood, and barely could Teagan find the strength to control the nausea that flooded through her. Pain accompanied it, dull and throbbing, a constant ache that centered on her wound, and stretched over her arm. The flesh around the bandages was hot, burned to touch as she investigated the wounded that was neatly sewn closed, and all too well she knew there was still a possibility of a spreading infection, and loss of her arm.<br><br>As beads of sweat trickled over her brow, trickled over her upper lip, she lazily tugged at the high collar of the shift that was not hers, more than likely a spare that the convent had; fingers fumbled with buttons. Teagan then pushed the blankets and bed linens down to expose her body to the coolness of the room, one that was sparse of decoration save for the bible and the crucifixion that hung on the wall above her bed; a candle burned by a small figurine of the blessed virgin Mary holding the baby Jesus. It only made Teagan wrinkle her nose as a bead of guilt for her past crimes wormed through her.<br><br>Decisively ill at ease, Teagan moved, swung her feet out over the edge of the bed and weakly stood on her feet. She padded to the door, cradling her arm, and opened it to peer into an empty narrow hall. &nbsp;“Hello?” She called out, uncertain of herself; the doors in the hall were open, and somebody, she thought, must be near.

				From one of the chambers came indeed a nun, her black habit had a white 'gown' in front of it, almost like a cooking gown, covered in some bit of blood. "Mylady, you should not be out of bed come.. come", she softly led Teagan back towards her cot, back towards the bed. "You were lucky to come to us so quickly, now.. you must rest and the Sisters and myself will take care of everything", she was a beautiful young thing, perhaps not even twenty years of age, no hair revealed but her dark black eyebrows. "I'm Sister Maria, when it is time I will come to change your dressing.", she stood up and placed her hand on Teagan's forehead. "Now please sleep dear lady.. questions will come later"

				Sister Maria's hand felt cool against Teagan's warm forehead that beaded with sweat; a feeling of nausea swept through the highwaylady and as was eased onto her narrow bed for recuperation. As Sister Maria spoke, as she told Teagan of being fortunate, the young nun traced a cool cloth over her brow and left it there. Fatigued and drained of energy from the vague events of the day, Teagan managed a smile. <br><br>&nbsp;“Questions?” She repeated and sunk further into the mattress which was sparse of blankets; the sheets had been bleached, starched and pressed. Crisp the linens were against Teagan's soft body. &nbsp;“Virgil,” She mumbled, and grasped the nun's hand lightly. &nbsp;“Virgil,” Teagan repeated and she slipped into unconsciousness once more where sleep claimed her.

				When Teagan awoke again there was a vision of an angel, or a nun sitting besides her bed, slowly warming her body as she stroked a warm rag across her skin, "You're awake again.. sshh.. don't sit..", the nun warned her softly as she tenderly cleaned Teagan's skin.

				Teagan was not disoriented when she was roused from her sleep, but her body throbbed with pain; it centered on her arm where it was acute, and slowly rippled from there in dullness. Weakened, and feeling as if she were now made of lead instead of muscle, bone and flesh, Teagan remained still and peered into the nun's face as she was bathed in tepid water. Naked, she was, and the gentle breeze from the open window indicated an unusually warm spring day, yet how long she had remained sleeping, remained at the convent, she knew not. Being in the nun's presence, a woman of God, a bride of the Lord, a sense of modesty overwhelmed Teagan, and young woman blushed, a faint pinkness glowing over her lovely body.<br><br>&nbsp;“Thank you for your kindness.” Teagan murmured, and wiggled her legs so that they slid underneath the bed linens granting her cover, granting her modesty. She closed her eyes for a moment, drifted into sleep once more, then woke with a start. &nbsp;“The constable,” Teagan murmured. &nbsp;“He was shot. How is he?” Teagan asked and glanced up into&nbsp; the nun's face. &nbsp;“And Virgil Elroy,” Teagan faintly mention, and her face deepened&nbsp; into a hue of red as she thought of their one evening of lovemaking. &nbsp;“He's my suitor. I'd like to speak with him, please.”<br><br>&nbsp;

				Staring down at Teagan the soft warmth of the cloth spread further through her body as she was cleaned, "..The Constable is dead, he died saving you from the bullet that pierced your arm.. or so I was told", the Nun returning to dip the cloth in a small water basin next to the bed before returning to cleaning Teagan. And when the name of Virgil Elroy came, not the nurse answered but a familiar voice did. "Stay in your bed Teagan, but your suitor, Virgil is quite alright", he stared at the young Nun who nodded softly and rose from Teagan's bedside. Then walked away, Virgil, dressed in a dark shirt with a white blouse underneath sat down on the bedside. Black pants ending tucked into riding boots.<br><br>He had grown older in his face somewhat as he ran his fingers across his woman's cheek, "..It does me good to see you awake at the very least Teagan, much has happened in the last few weeks. To much to simply tell you right now", he leaned in and gave her a tender kiss apon her lips. "..but all you need to know is that you're recovering better now. The Nuns told me, perhaps in a week you'll be allowed to go home..", his hand moved to her softly matted sweaty hair, running his fingers through it..

				Death had claimed many in the O'Meara family, and certainly Death was not a stranger, but to know that the Constable was dead from protecting her, taking the shot that was meant for her, it made Teagan nauseated. Bile, the acidic taste, crept into her throat and longed to slid over her tongue. She choked it down, and fought to remain in control of her body. &nbsp;“Sweet Jesus.” She murmured, a slip of words before the nun.<br><br>Only then did she hear the nun's words, and those of Virgil's; movement by her bed caught her sight of Virgil, and the young nun left so that they would have privacy. &nbsp;“Weeks? What do you mean by weeks? Was it not just today that James shot me? And the Constable?” Teagan breathed out in a whisper. Weakly, she struggled to sit up in bed, and she clung to the sheets to give her some modesty as she studied Virgil; handsome he was, but something had changed about his presence. The dark clothes made him look sombre and serious in comparison to when she last saw him.<br><br>&nbsp;“What has happened?” Teagan asked, and on seeing her bandages, and the faint yellow bruising that filled her arm, shaking fingers, slender, trembling began to unravel them out of curiosity. &nbsp;“Everything is a blur.”

				"Sssh.. relax Teagan", he slowly helped her unhook the bandages from Teagan's arm, the wound had healed almost completely now. "..The Sisters here have been aiding your recovery for nearly a month now, time has for you almost passed slowly. But it has past. The Farm we had wished was bought, I returned to our homestead to find you left for dead, the Constable no longer breathing and the man who had done this.. gone from the scene", he quieted her words if she had any to speak, "..While the proper way should have been to give my father to the law, after I captured him, I couldn't he pleaded, telling me he would take his own live.. I didn't give him the change", for a moment a deep moment of introspection washed over the young man as he looked at his hands. "..I killed him.. then buried his body..", he whispered softly, before turning to Teagan. "..the Sisters say you can nearly go home with me. If you wish it.. the Farm still awaits. If you.. however do not want to be with a murderer.. I understand.."

				A bewildered looked washed across Teagan's face, and it could not be helped for Virgil, as she knew him, was a gentle creature yet all gentle creatures had a darker hidden side to them much like her own. &nbsp;“Sweet mother of God!” Teagan whispered more or less to herself as Virgil's words sunk into her, was digested by her mind, and as her eyes focused on the glossy scar tissue on her arm. Emotions ran wild within her, and while she stared at the arm, the circular scar, she simply shook her head; matted golden locks of hair danced about her pale face that looked thinner then before. <br><br>&nbsp;“Virgil, you know I cannot condemn you when I have done the same,” Teagan murmured as she recalled her ex-fiancée, recalled killing him, and recalled disposing his body down the well. &nbsp;“What is done is done and cannot be undone. Let us not make a habit of it, shall we?” She asked, and smoothed her hand over his face rather tenderly as she peered up at him. &nbsp;“I will have you, yes, as a&nbsp; husband and future father of the children I bear, but tell me this,” Teagan leaned closer to him so that the words could only be heard between them.<br><br>&nbsp;“Who knows of the crime you committed?” She asked him, the words breathed in his ear. She settled back onto her pillow. &nbsp;“shall we have your mum come to live with us?&nbsp; How is she fairing with the death of her husband?Being a widow once more?” The questions were sincerely asked for Janice Elroy had been friendly with her, caring, and Teagan had wanted to salvage the friendship if possible.

				Virgil smiled softly at the beautiful woman across the bed from him, yes there hearts weighed heavily with the darkness of guilt, the severity of what they had done. But as he stared into Teagan's eyes, he could not condemn her, just like she could not do the same to her. "None knows of what I have done, my mother is already living on the farm for now. Together with my sister", he said softly, stroking a lone strand of Teagan's hair behind her ear.<br><br>"She says she's good enough, but my eyes know that she lies, the words from her lips aren't her feelings. But she keeps herself busy around the home..", he stared into those lovely eyes of his still soon to be wife, "If you wish it my love.. I could arrange us to be married here.. in this house of god.. to vow to make our lives righteous and upholding of morals?", he whispered tenderly against her cheek.

				&nbsp;“And your mother knows of us, of our engagement? It won't surprise her, our being wedded?” Teagan asked him as she felt the warmth of his words dance along her skin. Her hand sought his, and held it weakly, limply; his was calloused and warm against her skin which was cool and any callouses she had faded into smoothness over the month in which she had taken poorly from the bullet wound. She nuzzled closer to him, digesting the fact that she and Virgil would have secrets to take to the grave those which were bound with blood, murder and lust. <br><br>Her voice was tenderly faint when she spoke again. &nbsp;“Yes, let us marry here if possible, in a house of God, and begin anew with strength of morals and righteousness. Let us have a new beginning, Virgil.”

				Nodding softly Virgil pressed his forehead against Teagan's before kissing her tenderly. "Lets.. now rest my dear.. I'll arrange it all", he whispered softly and laid her back down. As Virgil walked away he gave her one last smile and then he was gone, much had happened between them. Even so, Virgil had not told Teagan the answer to his mother's approval. There was none, she knew of there love, Virgil had told her. But that they were to be wed, no words were spoken.

				The Irish lass, a beauty of her right, the stray soul and spirit nestled into the white linens of the narrow bed; eyes peered at the door, and they had watched Virgil leave, and only the footfalls of his boots echoed in the lonely corridor of the convent. Only then could she hear the songbirds, their melancholy but endearing tunes float and flutter on the breeze, and only then could she hear her heart steadily beat, and only then a sniffle, a choke, as a sob, soft and faint, struggle to release from her throat, and her mouth. Tears filled her eyes, swam over her pallid skin, and she gingerly raised her healed arm so that her hand could smear the droplets dry across her cheeks.<br><br>Tears.<br><br>It was a representation of mourning, one from a loss of life so needless, that of the Constable, and that of James Elroy. While there was a loss, there was also a joy, a bead of happiness to celebrate a new found love, a new found family, of relationships and children to come; a new generation would flourish from Virgil and Teagan: three boys and two girls.<br><br>As time passed, as they would age, the secrets that bound the two lovers together would eventually fade into history, and none would know, none would suspect that somewhere in the deeper woods a corpse rotted in a make shift grave; an heirloom, a ring, the body had clutched tightly in its grasp.
