Luke felt like he was on the very edge of life.
Where a full life is lived for the betterment of all.
He wanted to rejoice for all the good things in his life, more good than he has ever known. It was heady and exhilarating. Even the threats of danger all around the castle could not dispel his happiness.
He walked down the big hall and stopped at a casement. Below in the bailey the twins were tending horses as their hawk perched nearby.
Luke saw the yard next to the stable where a practice area would fit in well. This as well as a dozen other thoughts of how to improve this place and these lands went through his mind.
He sensed her and heard her soft footfalls all at once.
Luke turned with a smile on his lips; and, Enarrah walked with lithe grace into his arms. They encircled her and his hands folded around the curves of her body.
“Hello My Beloved Lady.”
Enarrah thought she would be ready when next they touched, she was mistaken. She melded into his body and he wrapped her in an embrace of tenderness and love, oceans of heat and light flowed through her.
“Oh Dearest Luke, you are the one.”
The End
