[BurningWillows]

There was no better place in the whole facility than this Eden. A huge glass domed room, it was the only place that any patient could feel the sun again, or look at the sky, their cells and corridors windowless as they lived underground nestled in these mountains. But this room broke the surface, the dome bubbling up from the ground to give them a few of the outside world, a taste of fresh air even when there was none. Stone pathways curved and led through a maze of plant life, flowers, shrubs, and trees of all kind to ease the tensions in patients. And in the very middle of the domed room was a small field, big enough to run through, or lay relaxing in the grass.

It was indeed an Eden. A small slice of something they had lost. A privilege only Cell Block A patients could appreciate. It was theirs, and no one took it for granted.

The light was nice… Relaxing even if it was artificial. Mind you everything was artificial in this place, right down to the crap they told the patients. Half these people didn’t care for the real art of what they could do for the human race – they cared simply for themselves.

Greed was a funny thing. It did odd things to humans, and many had suffered over the years for the draw backs to such things. In this case, half these creatures died while the other lived in misery as the hands of a mere mortal. How stupid was that?

Yet he couldn’t really say much… There wasn’t a whole lot that affected Eli…. Just lack of cigarettes, alcohol, and this odd metallic meteor rock they practically melted to his skin. That was really annoying… Eli was used to being able to get what he wanted in life… He knew he still could work his way out if need be, but at what cost?

Laying further back into the creaky wooden bench, Eli ruffled his short hair with one hand before sliding it down his face – pulling at the forever young and handsome skin of his face all while blacking out his line of sight. Sighing, the halfing drew back within himself, listening to the “natural” garden like noises the staff placed through the intercom in the room to give the illusion of a more realistic place of rest for the “patients”.

Her cell had provided no solace, so Akila had whisked to the gardens. Turning to pure smoke she lay amongst a bed of carnations, a small comfort in just sinking into almost obscurity. The gardens was the one place they could all relax, and yet she could still feel thier grip on her life, never truly free from this awful place. She hadn't see him when she entered but after a bit she started catching sounds of movement and breathing and her smoke like form rose, looking to see the gorgeous man on the bench. She had seen him around the Block A floor and she knew plenty of the women were harvesting crushes on the godly looking man. She knew his status, being a halfling of both heaven and hell. Some thought it was a joke, others avoided him all together because of it. Those who did approach him were often lonely patients hoping to score or the odd tough guy trying to show his strength against what most saw as the strongest patient around. Well strongest patient in Cell Block A. There were plenty of terrifying powers in Block C no one wanted to contend with.

She watched with interest for a few seconds, expecting to see a girl appear for a romp in the trees, or perhaps the siren. Nysali was as well known on the floor as Elijah and for the same reasons. Unfairly beautiful and wanted, but her primary difference would be her personality. Nysa always seemed happy, always bouncing on some guy or gals lap, or hitting on any number of patients. She also had a soft spot, as Akila had never seen the promiscuous being actually rude to another patient unless they warranted it. Elijah was much the opposite, reclusive and resigned from the others, choosing to ignore most of them unless it suited him in some way.

How'd Akila know all this? Half of it was talk amongst the patients. Most of it was Dr. Vera's notes though, as Akila had skimmed a few whenever Dr. Vera had required her as an assistant. Which wasn't often.

maybe stop watching like a creep, her thoughts warned her making a fair point. She was hidden in the shadows of a tree, her dark smokey form invisible unless she moved into the light. And if she did move he'd spot her but neither did she want to stay stuck here. She had wanted to be alone with her thoughts, not within eyesight of him. so instead she sunk behind the tree and reformed, becoming once more solid as she snatched her clothing she'd lain conviently at the tree and dressing. At least this way she could feign ignorance if he saw her. Just a patient walking through the gardens, not a depressed patient wallowing in her thoughts while hiding amongst the plants. Her neck felt sore as she tugged her shirt on, a reminder of what had happened, her gut knotting further. God, had she been spineless around the taller woman.

Dressed and presentable Akila stepped away from her hiding spot, making it look like she hadn't seen Elijah as she wandered further into the gardens.

Whether she'd know if Elijah would follow her in or not, the girl was not to find out just yet. As she wandered the small paths a guard approached her, ordering her to get a move on to the Science Department and deliver a package to Dr. Rupi Vera. It seemed her time as an assistant was far from over, much to Akila's dismay. Head down she bolted from the gardens, passing Elijah on his bench in a whirl, wondering if she'd ever catch his eye. But that thought was pushed away at the other thought of how mad Dr. Vera could get being left waiting.

The birds tweeted and twitted, the plants ruffled and a call of an odd animal here and there. That noise wasn’t that stupid pre-played crap that he’d become so complacently used to… Most of the time Elijah knew everything around him… The pure lineage he had obtained since the beginning of time tainted and constrained by a mere piece of rock. Eli’s ear twitched, listening as the air like being had moved back for a moment before returning… Watching him from afar. His lash’s brushed his fingers, only opening the slightest to send an emerald eyed glance in the direction of a female. Magic was strong with that one, coursing through her veins and very being. What a pity that she was the hand to one of the scientists. Just as the thought had arisen, had a guard submerged, taking her past his relaxed form and away – probably to another test or to do some annoying task the lazy “higher ups” refused to do.

Having been sent off, Akila decided that perhaps she could hide further in the gardens, where Dr. Vera couldn't find her. The young girl did not expect Elijah to still be there when she returned, hurrying in while glancing over her shoulders, a little shooken up by glance meeting of the wolf girl. God did she scare Akila, especially with the reputation she was already receiving.

Not paying much attention what so ever, Akila looked back ahead just in time to see Elijah's legs in the way and UMPH!

"Ow! Sorry," she muttered, splayed out on the ground as she tripped and fell, her cheeks turning red in embarrassment, "Sorry about that. Clumsy me."

All he had felt was a soft nudge.

Stupid rock…

But a voice followed that thought, forcing Eli’s hand to move back and his arm to drape over the back of the rather old bench. Dark emeralds stared at the girl – her cheeks blood filled with embarrassment and her hair slightly strewn about. The Halfling had to admit that it was a rather funny sight, pulling a slight smile to his lips.

“For a magical being… Your not so in tune with your surroundings.” Eli’s deep and seductively rich voice piped up.

Holy shit was he speaking to her? Yes, yes he was. Pull it together Akila.

"Again, sorry," she muttered, pulling herself up to her knees, and then to her feet, "Must have been preoccupied, wasn't watching my step. Magic doesn't really me walk it uh...well nevermind. I'll,um, leave you be."

He was making her into a blubbering mess, not only embarrassed in her fall but awkwardly shy around such a godly looking man. She fixed her black hair, briefly glancing at the handsome man before her before turning her flamed cheeks away, "Didn't mean to disturb. Honest."

A fine brow lifted, Elijah’s beautiful face only slightly contorting in a dark unforeseeable manner. She was surprised. That was easy enough to read – even at this distance.

“It’s fine. Not like you ripped a limb off beautiful.” He breathed, his deep tone ringing around them with an authoritative airy sound. “Well, you’re the embodiment of magic. It bends at your fingertips.”

That was more of a statement. With that, Eli’s eye closed and one foot dropped to the ground, while the other moved back, his foot resting on the bench to allow the girl some space to sit.

Akila cheeks blushed a brighter red as she picked herself off the floor and dusted her pants off, looking awkwardly around before sitting next to him. He had called her beautiful. It made the butterflies in her stomach wore, much worse.

"So uh...um you like it in the gardens too?" she asked, fumbling with her words.

An eye opened ever so slightly again, watching the genie. She was very timid, and he could quite easily see the nerves building up in her muscles – even if it was faint. Her word’s brought a smirk to his lips, the Halfling shifting his head slightly - his muscles in his over laying arm flexing as his arm readjusted.

“It’s better than those stupid rooms they stick us in. The library is nice too though.” He breathed. “You practically live in here when you’re not bending backwards for them.”

Her breathing was loud, amusing him while she battered her words around. If he had barely spoken to her… He wondered. Eli’s leg adjusted, brushing her’s before finally resting against the genies soft skin.

Folding her hands in her lap she looked straight ahead, trying her best to calm herself but it was no use. His leg rubbed against hers and then rested, leaning into her leg and all Akila could think about was his proximity.

"It is rather nice in here," she replied, her mouth gone dry, "I like to walk through the pathways mostly. The plant life is so...pretty."

The Halfling watched her movements, noted ever reaction down.

“But it’s also just an illusion in here. All made up by my father’s stupid desire for a “higher” race.” The Halfling grumbled, his word’s barely audible. Her mouth was dry. Eli could say he’d wondered why but he knew the effect he had on women. Eli stood – the motion so graceful and fluid, even the most talented in the arts couldn’t match. Holding a tanned hand out, Eli’s head motioned towards a path that lead deeper into the gardens.

She wasn't sure what he was talking about, but she didn't need to form an answer. He seemed content on her silence as she stilled her thumping heart. That was until he stood and beckoned her with his head to join, making her heart all but stop and her breath to hitch yet again.

"Uh...yeah. W-why not?" she muttered, flustered as she took his hand and rose. It was much bigger than hers, but perfect in how strong it felt, wrapping around her small slender hand. Her pale blush grew pinker as he did, trying not to giggle like an idiot that she was, in fact, touching Elijah Gemini.

The Halfling waited – rather patiently at that for the brunette. She was working things out in her head. He could see that as naturally as breathing air came to any mortal. The man’s eyes flickered to her appearance, before she accepted his invite – Her little hand curling up within his.

The 6 ft 8” hulking beast towered over her, his body leaning into her as he circled his arm around her, placing his hand on her hip while leading her into the intricate path’s that lead within the gardens. The tree’s where lush, the grass as green as physically possible. Along the way, Eli moved the overhanging branch’s out of the way, unwilling to allow the branch’s to tough the girl’s small but beautiful form.

Akila made idle talk as they walked, calming her nerves as she followed his step. The genie tried not to think about where they were going, or why such a beautiful creature was giving her the time of day. Needless to say she hoped for the best case scenario, but even that made her heart pound as she panicked, unsure what she would do if he did do "that".

"So...where are we heading?" he voice squeaked out softly at a break in their conversation.

Small chat. That was easy enough. Mind you, everything in this life had been easy for the Halfling. Having the power of persuasion and his devilish looks went a long ways – no matter the sexual preference of the other creature. Yet this one was breathless at just the image of him, let alone anything beyond that. The Halfling pulled the genie into him further, allowing her body to heavily press into him as they matched their pace at a steady stroll through the gardens.

“Well – If you look up top… There’s some stained glass. There’s a hidden part in the garden where the light hit’s it just right and the garden really comes to life.” The Halfling purred, his deep and silky voice informed her. “For a place that’s so fake – it really creates some magic.”

As if on cue, Eli ducked his head, pulling several fern’s leaf’s apart to expose a small open space. Light’s streamed different color’s amongst the green – the dust and small lights playing within the air before them. The grass swayed gently – as if a breeze had passed through, the tree’s leaves chattering for a moment above them. Eli looked down at the small genie, a smile playing on his lips as his hand slid up to rest along her chin. She had only a moment to look at the beauty of a hidden spot within the garden before he’d redirected her line of sight. Emerald eyes glittering with the light’s that played around them – his attention focused purely and solely on her. She was short, but he’d made the distance with ease, his head leaning in and his full lips pressing against hers.

The word "fake" stuck in her mind as they spoke, prompting her to ask, "What do you find fake? It is indeed a little greenhouse. The plants are real, the soil is real. The sky above us through that glass is real. The only fakeness I see is the facade that we have any freedom in here, but I do not blame the gardens."

He pushed a handful of fern leaves aside and her breath caught. She'd never been this far back and the look of the sunlight dancing along the leaves and flowers was breathtaking. As she took in the sight she hardly noticed his hand on her chin until he was tilting her head to look at him. Then her breath really stopped, her face only a foot from his. He was tall, taller than any other man she had seen in the institute and he loomed over her 5'9 body. But that didn't slow him down as he pulled her chin up and leaned down, his lips pressing to hers.

Her mind went numb. All the butterflies in her stomach quadrupled, making her feel sick and dizzy with overwhelming giddiness. Her lips pressed back, eagerly wanting this affection from such a beautiful creature. But the overwhelming emotion had caught her off guard and she could feel it: the buzz of every atom in her body, wanting to escape. She clenched her fist even as they started to turn to smoke, begging herself to remain in control and not ruin this. It took all her concentration not to break from his lips while also controlling her body's wave of emotion, pulling her atoms back until her arms were once more fleshy and human.

Finally the kiss ended and her breath came out in a small sigh, her cheeks flaming under his still piercing gaze, "That was...unexpected. But...I wouldn't mind...more..."

Eli couldn’t help the soft scoffing noise that rumbled in the bottom of his throat.

“The plants may seem real, and the soil, the sky above a glass cage. It’s all an illusion – the guards, the security cams. Minus this area… The only untouched and unseeable area in this entire place.” He breathed, his attention focused soley on the woman before them. This entire place was doomed – and the people within it even more so.

It had taken the brunette a moment to adjust from the scenery to him, sudden pleasure taking her lips and flavoring his taste buds. So much so that magic flourished from every atom of her being, shaking her hands until she could control and maintain it. Naturally, his arms wrapped around her, picking her up while her grip was tight and firm on her luxurious body. Her word’s brought a smile to his lips, bringing them down to her neck.

“More?” His voice purred against her neck, his lips fluttering across her skin while his hands pressed her body into his firm muscle form.

She couldn't believe this. It had to be a dream. A delicious dream. And whether it was or not, she didn't want it to stop. She let him pull her in, her arms wrapping as if on instinct around his neck. Tilting her head back, she let him kiss her neck. How long had it been since she had felt the warm touch of the man, void of ill intent or violence?

"Yes please," she whispered, her cheeks hot and red.

Eli pressed her furthermore against him, her response edging him on. Her skin was hungry with lust, her body craving him alike he craved her. His skin buzzed, and his mind cleared – every atom of his being awakening with the answer that flowed from her lips. His body moved as if time was frozen, his body roughly laying her into the lush and spongey grass. The blades caressed his skin and bedded the beautiful creature within his grasp, his hands removing the cloth’s that clothed her perfect body, quickly making them disappear.

His lips moved over her skin, his hands caressing her hour glass shaped figure – gliding down her while his lips made their way. He moved to her plump nipples, allowing the warmth of his mouth to suckle on them, teasing them. His hands moved down her, finding her thigh’s to rub while one glided over the lush skin. His body warmed with need, his muscles rippling with desire as his hand made its way between her legs, allowing the slender and strong fingers find their way to Akila’s pink warmth.

Akila hadn't realized what 'more' meant until she was set down in the grass and suddenly naked, her body turning pink with embarrassment at being nude in front of this godly looking man. The blush only increased as his mouth and fingers focused on her, giving her attention all over till her breath was hitching and her heart raced. She wasn't even sure what to do, so she let her hands run through his hair and enjoyed herself, a sliver of her brain warning her that they could be caught at any time.

She also wondered how far he would go. Would she see him undress? Would she see....down there? Her cheeks burnt with the thought, the all too well behaved girl had not fantasized about a man's groin in a long time, or for that matter any dirty thoughts. But he was making her think them. Want them.

Her body quaked, unsure how to react to this all. She was obviously new to this deed, and her body reacted in every positive manner. Her hands through his hair, roughly meading his scalp as new pleasure’s spilled over her.

With that, he kissed across her chest, nipping eagerly at her other perky nipple before moving down her. His hand easily spead her legs, and his lips found their way to her succulent and tender pinkness. Eli’s tongue glided over her while his finger sipped within her with an eager need to explore ever part of the beauty.

"I haven't done this in ages," Akila finally admitted, squeezing her eyes shut as she held back a groan, "I got...little....will power. I might....explode here if...you keep that up with...your tongue."

Her back arched as her hips rolled, her thoughts hoping for more than just his mouth soon, while another thought chided her greediness, tell her to enjoy what she was getting. And she was. Boy was she ever, as she groaned and moaned loudly.

Her reaction was perfect. Everything he desired and more. Her groan’s were nothing alike the maiden he’d married at one point – but still beautiful in themselves beyond most. Eli’s free hand gripped the woman’s hip, his tongue slipping down into her with his finger, eagerly lapping up the juice’s that spilled not only from her lips on her upper half, but from her lower half as well. While his body hummed for her, he continued to please her, eager to gain more excitement before he could allow himself the deepening pleasure that not only came from her own. Eli’s finger deepened and quickened into her vast warmth, eager to get her to spill her juice’s furthermore until she would scream and plead for him.
