Ties That Bind (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[PoisonousIvee]

She nodded and pet his hair gently, "Come, let's go eat.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He nodded and followed her to the dining hall, his heart still pounding.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

His seat was next to her, the table surrounded by her warhawks and other nobility.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He looked at his food, never speaking to anyone but her.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

It was more food than he ever could eat on his own. Things he couldn't afford even if he saved up for a year. Fruits and gourds he didn't recognize trailed down the table along with the meat of animals he rarely saw.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He ate and drank as much as he could, thanking the cooks and servers, much to the confusion of her warhawks.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She waved them off, shooting glares at each of them. She found his gratitude endearing.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He was full, and honestly a little drunk. This was a lot for him to take in.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"You don't have to keep eating.." She said gently, "We can go off to our chambers and rest.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He nodded. "Whenever works for you..!" He said with a smile.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She moved to stand and everyone stood to bow as she left.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He simply got up after her and left with her.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"So what did you think?" She asked, "Not as thrilling as you thought, hm?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"What do you mean?" He asked.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"It's dull and boring here.." She said, "I don't enjoy it.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"I'm sorry Indra.." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She shrugged and pushed open their bedroom door, letting him walk in first.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He bowed a little sloppily and entered first.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"You don't have to bow, Hein.." She told him as she walked in.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Ah apologies.." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She rose an eyebrow as she watched him, "You don't hold your liquor well, do you?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"No, not very well.." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She laughed softly and guided him to the bed, laying him down and undressing him.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He made a noise. "Indra..? What are you doing..?"

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She glanced up at him, "Undressing you. What does it look like?"
