Escape

When I held you in my arms as we rode into the night...

He stops his horse and dismounts, Eirika still in his arms as he rushes to a clearing by the river.

It was the first time since I was knighted that I forgot my duty.

"Seth..."

"Forgive me, princess," he whispers through dry lips. In her confusion she moves to take off her armor, and he helps her.

I thought of you not as my queen.

He forgets himself; right now all he sees is a beautiful girl, right now he's simply a man overcome with desire. And as he lowers her to the grass and looks into her eyes, he can see she feels it as well.

I wanted to leave everything behind...

Thoughts of the fallen Renais and Grado's invasion seem so far away as he kisses her.

To take you far away to someplace where we could be together.

"Seth," she whispers. Her hand moves to touch his face. "I...you..."

"It's only us, my lady," he reassures her. "This night is ours." He kisses her forehead, her eyelids, her cheeks...his lips travel slowly down her neck, stopping just above the curve of her breast.

She stands up for a moment, the rest of her clothing seeming to melt away from her. All he can do is stare, the moonlight gives her skin a beautiful glow. He snaps out of it when he realizes she's starting to undress him.

"Ah, let me..." He gently pushes her hands away, and his clothing and armor soon join hers on the ground.

someone I wanted to protect from all harm

He embraces her as they lie back down on the grass, his body shielding hers from the cool night air.

You held me tight, keeping me safe from the enemy's blades.

In spite of everything, Eirika realizes she's never felt safer than she does right now, in his arms. His skin warms her from the outside in, and a sudden press of his lips to her breast ignites a fire within her.

He parts her legs and clasps her by the shoulders, his eyes looking into hers.

"Eirika," he whispers. No title, no formality, only her name.

"Seth."

He enters her with a swift, gentle thrust; the loss of her maidenhead stings and he strokes her face, whispering an apology. She wraps her thighs around his hips, urging him to continue.

It's quite a thrill, forgetting themselves in favor of being man and woman. Lovers, hidden away from the rest of the world, free to do as they pleased. She wishes this night would never end, that it could always be like this.

"Ah, Seth...!" Her hands grip his forearms as his pace quickens. He's getting close now, and so is she...suddenly, he shouts her name and spends himself within her, triggering her own climax.

far away to someplace where we could be together

She sleepily nestles her face into the crook of his neck as he strokes her sweaty hair. She could lay like this forever with him, under the stars.

When the sun next rises, they will clean up and dress, then resume their roles as the future queen of Renais and her knight. But neither will forget that for one glorious evening, they were much more.
