[Queen Sarah]

---

Flopping on the bed like she used to do when she was a child Sarah lands next to Rufus. The jarring motion stirs him to awaken with a smile. Quickly following her jump with a kiss, Sarah greets her husband a new day. Running her slender fingers over his markings as he lays beside her his eyes close. Noticing that her touch beings to soothe him back to a restful state she continues as her mind recalls the recent past events.

She had been unable to stop looking or touching him all night….as if she needed to constantly remind herself of his return. Relief that she felt when she saw him in the main hall of the palace had nearly caused her to collapse. But the exact opposite occurred, she ran into his arms, taking in his scent, his touch, and his sounds. Never had she felt so connected with him than at that very instance.

Quick conversations of what, who and how…were exchanged in rapid succession, punctuated by kisses and caresses. Time had stopped for them as they told one another of the past week's events. Before they realized it, Walter was clearing his throat beside them offering some sort of muffled apologies for interrupting the lovers. The sheer thrill of being alive compelled them to go to Poet’s for some good cheer.

Now stretched out beside Rufus but propped up on one elbow Sarah softly caresses his facial markings. She had only left his side once since his return. She had gone to tell the wonderful news to Najm that his father was back and that he had been injured but well on his way to a full recovery. Arrangements were made for his safe passage to the Palace later the following day so father and son would be reunited.

Looking down at Rufus her mind fondly recalls how they had shared the most intimate re-unitement two people could share. The night had held so many passionate and pleasurable moments that her body had grown sore from the activity. A soreness only a truly loved wife would cherish. Knowing the Ameer would be arriving soon, diplomats will want to seek out her husband, Lady Naissia will need an audience, commands of the day needed to be given, and even the maidservants wanting to take on their tasks with in their chamber…..all waited upon them to stir.

“Let them wait,” Sarah mused as she held onto her husband, letting this moment be fixed upon her forever.
