Denied Rights

**right where we left off**

Slipping inside, Rumil kicked the door shut with his foot, still holding Calimara. "You can let go of me now, my lady," he said softly when she didn’t release him.

"One still watches," she muttered as she slowly rubbed her foot over Rumil’s calf.

Although he saw nobody, he suddenly felt eyes upon them, and continued the charade by sliding his hands down her back, going lower and lower…. "If you go any lower, Rumil, I will kill you…" she mumbled in his ear.

He laughed quietly and then tipped them over onto his bed. "Relax," he whispered when he felt her stiffen, "I will not go too far." He locked his hands with hers and planted gentle kisses on her neck, and then up her jaw, before his tongue darted out to suck on the delicate point of her ear.

Breathing heavily she arched against him. "Oh Rumil!" Releasing her ear, his lips traveled down her face before reaching her lips. He nibbled gently on the lower one before pressing his tongue ast hst her mouth. After a minute she opened to let him in, and the two of them were lost in each other.

Outside a cloaked figure gazed through a hole in the wall. "Hey you!" a guard shouted, spotting him. "What do you think you are doing?!" The stranger darted off followed by the guard.

When he finally needed to breathe, Rumil released her lips. "We are alone now," she gasped trying to catch her breath. "You can get off of me."

Staring into her eyes he answered, "maybe I do not want to."

She stared back, "maybe I don’t want you to either," she said softly. He grinned and leaned back down to kiss her, but then she continued, "however, I need to speak to you of your brother."

Groaning, he got off of her, and gave her a hand up. Turning serious, he turned to her, "can you help him?"

She looked thoughtful for a second, as if she was choosing her words very carefully. "There are many who do not agree with my father. There are few who would deny help to a Lothlorien elf, and our people desire to repair relations with Lothlorien," she paused, "My brother is very adamant about rescuing Haldir. A small party will be leaving tomorrow at sunset to find the marchwarden. Only my brother’s most trusted warriors will be included. You must leave at sunrise tomorrow, and say nothing of this to anyone. Not even your lady!"

At this Rumil started to protest, "But-" She cut him off before he could continue.

"My brother will fix everyg, ag, and it will seem like the king is the one who ordered the help. Friendship will resume between our two kingdoms once more, and my brother has agreed to accept the consequences. Nobody will know that we went against the king. This is very important Rumil. You must swear not to tell." She pulled him close. "Swear," she said as she ran her fingers through his silver locks.

He leaned into her touch, "mmmm, I swear." And then he claimed her lips once more, not even thinking to ask ‘which brother’ she spoke of.
