Chapter {2/?}
Tap.

“Seth?”
Tap-tap.
Tap.
“Seth, Atemu’s here with a shaved head.”
Tap.
Tap.
“My those ceremonial robes sure are sheer. Jono’d be better off naked.”
Tap. “Nice try, Nefer. But I know better than to fall for that.” The teen shuffled another scroll to the ever growing pile. Silence broken only by the monotone tapping of his quill.
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.
Ta-CRUNCH!
Seth’s eyebrow rose swiftly in askance of his mentor. His quill now lay crushed in her claws. Huffing, Nefer tried to regain her composure. But several minutes passed and still her forehead-nerve twitched.Seth opened his mouth only to slam it shut at her growled “SILENCE!” Lacing his fingers together, he leaned his chin on them. Waiting for Nefer’s temper tantrum to end. After several moments more, she finally caught her breath. “Feel better?”
She ignored his smirk. “Very. Do you know how long I’ve been trying to get your attention?” Seth’s shrug threatened to bring out that twitch again. “For over a candle-mark! Now we have even less time to prepare.”
Prepare? Curiously, Seth closed his ink well. “And what exactly do we need to prepare for?”
Snarling, Nefer closed the distance between the two. “That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you! His Grace wishes us to join Jono’s party and himself for the evening meal. In. Half. A. CANDLE-MARK!” She watched as the news slowly sank into her cousin’s hard head. It was almost hilarious. The dawning horror and hope equally displayed on his stoic face.
“WHAT??!!! Why didn’t you say something sooner??!!!!” Jumping up, he rushed to bath and prepare. Not even bothering with the attendants, he was in and out in a few heartbeats. Still grumbling, he raced into their chambers. “I can’t believe you didn’t say anything. Are you TRYING to ruin my chances?” Luckily, Nefer already had a servant ready his best clothes. He only threw them on. “Remind me to speak to the seamstress, please. These new robes are too tight.”
“Oh, yes. I tried for a candle-mark to get your attention to ruin your chances with Jono.” Making sure her claws were properly buffed, she rolled her eyes. “REALLY Seth. I’ve told you; I approve of courting young Jono. I may not approve or like his mentor, but I adore that little Black Dragon halfling. I’m actually indebted to him for FINALLY breaking through your shell.” Her eyes softened at her cousin’s ruffled state. Try as he might, without an attendant, he could not get the robes to smooth. Standing, she reached out to aid. As she worked, her voice whispered. “And these are tight because you’ve grown in the week they’ve been made. Give it a few more days to insure you’ve stopped this spurt before calling for new robes.” Her voice wavered.”I was afraid you’d be lost in your heart’s darkness.” Hidden tears colored her breath. “I’m glad you found your light.” Once the robes fell smoothly, her eyes met his own crystaline blue. “I’m also proud for your actions in this situation.”
Silence wrapped comfortably around the two as they stood. The only interruption a knocking. Gathering themselves, Seth called out entrance permission. A blushing girl with small golden wings bowed as she entered. “I am sorry if you have waited long, my lord. The evening meal is about to be served.”
Nefer glided forward smiling, all traces of her earlier emotions gone. “No wait at all Jezet. Thank you. Has the Atlantean Lord’s other guests arrived yet?” Their steps echoed through the halls.
Leading the way, Jezet nodded. “Yes, my lady. Both Special Courier Ki and the Wardling Jono arrived earlier. They had other business to speak with the Lord in private.” What those issues were would have to wait. The Lord’s door stood open to the night breezes. After announcing his new guests, Jezet left her Lord’s presence. Her wings twitched in pleasure at the thought of Lord Seth finally mating his love. The whole Planer council and palace grounds knew the feelings of those two. And the betting pool on when they’d crack grew heavier the older Jono got. She could barely stop herself for singing.
In the chambers, neither paused long.Keeping himself leashed, Seth strolled forward into a graceful bow. “Thank you for your time. I hope this is no intrusion.” Even though he spoke to the Atlantean Lord, crystal blue eyes gazed only on the holder of his heart.
Overlooking the slight, especially since he knew better, the Atlantean Lord smiled. “No intrusion at all. Please rise. First we shall dine then discuss the contract afterwards.” His small wave brought servants laden with various dishes forward as the group took sat upon their cushions. The Lord took the table’s head while each group sat on either side. Jono and Ki on one with Seth and Nefer on the other. The meal progressed peacefully; small talk floated between the occupants easily. Only Jono didn’t smile. Nothing Seth or Ki said seemed to tug the smaller boy’s lips. And that worried Seth. The meal finally came to an end, but the youth still had not smiled.
“Jono.” Looking up, the boy met Seth’s eyes. The honey-gold he cared for so much lay dull before him. His heart cracked. “What is wrong.”
Jono’s blond bangs, hid his eyes once more. His voice flat answered slowly. “Nothing, my lord. What could be wrong?”
Ki sighed beside his ward. He knew Jono wasn’t happy about the prospect of the contract, but there was nothing he could do. It was a necessity in their culture. Again, there was nothing he do against it no matter how sullen Jono was. It hurt to think the little Bloodling didn’t trust him enough to realize this was for the best. The Egyptian Lord’s Priest was the best choice.
Shaking his head, an idea came to Seth. All through the Council’s meeting, he re-played Jono’s words from the garden. The idea slowly blooming. Now faced with his love, Seth’s decision reinforced itself. “I wish to remove my contract as it stands.” If he thought Ki would be the one growling at him, Seth was wrong.
“What do you MEAN you wish to remove your contract?” The Atlantean Lord’s claws slowly crushed his goblet. “You would play with his feelings like that?” Snarling, he made to stand, but Nefer’s hold on his arm stopped him.
“Let Seth speak, your Grace.” She waited for the Lord to sit again before elbowing her cousin to continue. And he better make it good, she was not certain she could stop the Lord again.
Staring into surprised honey gold, Seth forced all his emotions into his own blue. “I still wish to court Jono, but the contract as it stands is unacceptable. I wish to have it removed from discussion.” A little smile danced on his lips as Jono’s own stretched wide. “Instead, I would like Bloodling Jono to aid in writing our contract… together. So both parties have a say in how this mating will work.” Glancing at their mentors, he frowned. “WITHOUT interference from anyone else. We will take advice, but in the end it will be a mutual decision and agreement between US and no one else.”
And with those words, Seth turned their culture in a new direction. Forging new dreams and unbreakable hopes.
