joseph_rahtemn* While Anishal and Lore were out indulging in the fruits of royalty, he was busy with another activity. The transition had been accomplished with flying colors. Xavier had not been a dissapointment and that had indeed been a very important stepping stone in his life. The Ba'al of Corruption was now walking the earth, and he was pleased. Since the transformation was a success, he could relax at least for a time. It had indeed been a long time since he had indulged in his duties as an Emperor. And now within his throne room, he sat comfortable, with a large goblet of wine set upon a tray next to him. A plate of half eaten food, and before him a single woman, dancing amidst the candle lights of the large interior of the throne room. The woman was tall, and elegant. She was dressed in nothing more than a silk skirt, her naked breasts exposed, her pink nipples pierced with hoops of silver. She spiredl and danced brilliantly, though there was no music playing. His dark, broen eyes observed, however they did not observe for the reasons that most would think. No, his gaze was not directed to the sumptuous curve of her hips, nor the plump naked flesh of her breasts. No, his eyes were upon the swaying blades that cut through the air. She spun and spiraled slashing her blades throughout the air, brilliantly before she slid her left blade down in a crescent, which cut the last piece of fabric from her body. Around her now naked body were sashes of silk, that she had at one point been wearing. Now, whether or not the display had aroused him was not really a question. His gaze fixed upon her structure, her poise. She was beautiful, he did find her attractive, but... would Lore? A strong, capable woman, intelligent, and beautiful. He knew that his son had his fine taste in women. That thought brought a faint smile to cross his dark features as he shifted in his, frame to the side, and leaned his cheek upon the jagged contours of his knuckles. "That will suffice," he said ina calm tone of voice. The woman bowed her head, dark, raven strands fell before her face, as she descended and lifted the scraps of clothing up from the marble floor. "Of course m'lord," she offered softly. Slowly he leaned forward. "So you think that you would be capable of committing your life to the Prince's protection and entertainment?" he inquired. The woman spun her blades back and clasped both scimitars up and rested the cold steel upon her right shoulder. Still naked before her emperor. "Of course my lord," she offered with a bow of her head. The Emperor lifted his head, and directed his gaze out beyond towards the doors where he knew Anishal would be making her appearance, he smiled faintly. "Excellent," he offered. "Let us see what the empress thinks." he finally offered. The female before him descended to her knees, bowed her head and waited.
Anishal_Silveris: And indeed she did make her appearence. The Empress eased her cool way through the massive doors into the Throne Room, sapphire eyes flecked with mercury stars settling upon the rather lovely woman knelt before her Lord. Her flesh of silver shone within the lights, quicksilver mane dancing to her knees glinting brightly as well. She wore a simple dress of white silk, the bodice laced tight against the swell of her breasts, the material clinging most deliciously to the fine shape of her legs, just sheer enough to see well muscled definition. A brow would loft as she directed that piercing gaze upon her husband, steps taken towards the dias. At the bottom she would stop, inclining her head towards the Emperor before ascending as well, standing next to his throne. " How very lovely my Lord. And to what do we owe this pleasure?" She was quite aware that Joseph tended to surround himself with intense beauty of the female persuasion, but she also knew where his loyalties lay. To have this young woman before them now was interesting indeed, and posed many a question.
joseph_rahtemn* As she entered he raised his head and offered the faintest of smiles her way. He knew that her mind wandered with many questions, and he was feeling the least bit jocular at that point in time. "I was considering her," he offered as he turned and gazed up at her. "For the harem," he stated. He left it at that however. He did wonder if she would grow jealous. After all he had never settled his hands upon any female save for his beloved Empress. However the mere concept that he was searching out females for a harem. Well that would certainly bring about a reaction. Though he did wonder what. The ties of their marriage were strong. Strong enough to keep her at his side through his long years of absence, and even still to persevere through the more troubling times that they had encountered. He was a man who was knowledgeable of the many ways of man. Anishal was faithful as was he. However their venture to the brothel did raise a few questions of his own. Questions that would be answered soon enough or so he thought, silently unto himself. He gestured for the woman to rise and signaled for her to spin. She did so immediately, and Damon leaned his head back. "Strong, fit, and lovely," he offered. "Capable of dending herself and those within the court," he said. "She would be a fine addition to the harem. Don't you agree beloved." as he gestured for Anishal to seat herself upon the throne that resided at the right side of his own. The smile upon his features was as thoughtful as ever, however. He did seek out her approval, but he did hope that it would be less clouded by jealousy. Though of course it was expected that it might be. It was his own fault for seeking to push her buttons so to speak.
Anishal_Silveris: A gentle hand that could crush bone easily enough was settled upon his cheek lovingly for a moment before she took her own throne next to his, one leg swinging over the other, the silk of her dress parting enough to show a sleek line of thigh. Though truly unbeknownst to her, her foot bounced just the slightest bit as she again looked towards the beautiful young girl, watching her spin. Agitation surely. Yet her face that held the beauty of a Goddess remained nuetral. A slight nod she would give, even as she leaned back within her seat, arms crossing as she turned her attention full upon her Mate. " I'm sure she would be. But do tell, why would you possibly need a harem? Are the Twins not enough?" Bringing up the Twins brought a ghost of a smile to full tiers. She knew what role the Twins played, and they were not to appease the sexual appitites of Damon. Ah yes, she knew he was playing some sort of game, but what that game was she wasn't aware of. Yet. Was she jealous? Not per say really. She held firmly to the belief that her Mate was true, no matter how long apart they tended to be. But to seek a harem? " Surely my love, if you seek more Warriors, you can find others perhaps more.. suited for that position?"
joseph_rahtemn* The agitation fled from her and he could feel it. A soft chuckle ascended forth from his frame as he nodded his head to the woman. She bowed her head again, and gathered the torn shreds of silk, and slid the blades up to rest them upon her shoulder once more. Quietly the woman departed from the throne room, leaving the Emperor and Empress to their biddings. He turned and smiled at her. "You're agitation preceeds you," he offered. "The Harem is not for me, beloved," he offered as he leaned forward. "You are quite enough to satisfy my apetites," he stated as he reached out with his right hand and slid his fingertips along the side of her face. Gently he tipped her chin up and smiled at her. "Lore has a very... intense apetite for the flesh of females, and I felt it would do him well to have a harem of capable females, surrounding him," he stated as he leaned forward and ascended to full height. Slowly his hands rubbed together as the massive doors to the throne room was shut behind the female. "Though the question does rise," he offered as he turned and began to pace. "Did you enjoy yourself at the brothel?" he inquired. "I understand that those of ageless blood often find themselves, seeking out many partners, many mates. Not only for the varying in their sexual apetites, but also for the concept of procreation on a more basic level," he stated, with a smile as he turned and faced Anishal. "You have impeccible faith in me my love," he offered. " and for that I am grateful," he stated. "Though often I find myself wondering how I would feel if I were to enter this room to see some man, posing and strutting for you," he offered with a bit of a chuckle. "I have heard that the male servants of the brothel are quite handsome. Do they intrigue you?" he inquired, as his hands folded behind his back. His pacing continued. He was merely attempting to find out more about his beloved Anishal. He paused in his pacing and turned to face Anishal. "I suppose it's not truly important, or is it?" he inquired. "You still have no great love for The Twins," he stated, with a smile. "Why?" he inquired curiously, as he leaned his head to the side, observing her through dark, brown eyes. "They've done nothing but serve me, faithfully, offering as my protector's and my guides for eons, even before you," he stated, with a light smile. "Surely such loyalty is something to be praised. Even from their Empress, who they find to be beautiful and loving."
Anishal_Silveris: Her head would tilt without hesitation into the touch he afforded her, her smile widening, simply giving more lovliness to look upon. Smiling, it wasn't something she did much of perhaps. But now, with her family together again as it should be, how could she not smile? Her arms would uncross, noting silently the obvious mirth her husband had garnered at her expense, but she let it go. Her demeanor relaxed, her foot no longer bouncing, hands settled upon her lap almost demurely. Almost. She watched him begin his pacing, and she had to smile all the more. It had been so long since she'd witnessed his little quirk. She'd missed it. Yet his questions brought a slight scowl upon her features, fingers lacing together as she paused to think upon his musings. " The brothel, though indeed holding better taste then I first presumed, simply is not to my liking. I am sure you've known many of ageless blood beloved, but how many of Dragon ilk have you truly known deeply? We seek but one Mate, and once that One is found, there is no need for any others." She had to laugh now, a soft sound, her head tossing slightly to cause the waves of silver within her thick mane to caress against her bussom. " Though trust me, I am far from dead. Females are not to my liking, but I won't say i do not enjoy the sight of a well built male. They simply don't light my fire.." the little quip was ended with another chuckle as she to rose, drifting down the stairs upon bare feet, stopping before him as her demeanor switched to seriousness upon the mention of the Twins. " I suppose it is still hard for me to accept them because they have been with you from the very beginning. That they hold such a deep place within you. But I have grown to accept them my love, their presence. They are completely loyal to you, and that's all that matters really. Perhaps, I should spend more time getting to know their story.."
joseph_rahtemn* The ring of her laugher caused his smile to widen that much more. "You know my line was called The Clan of the Red Dragon," he offered, as a side note at her mention of dealing with Dragons. "My ancient Nemesis, known as The Jade Dragon," he stated. "In my home world the Dragons were said to be all powerful, and undefeatable," he stated as he paused, finding her in front of him. Both of his eyes followed the features of her face. At her confession of the twins he smiled. "I have spoken with them about you, they find you to be the most majestic woman they have ever seen," he stated as his hands ascended to cup the sides of her face. "They lust after you as deeply as they lust for me. Though indeed, they know their places well," he stated, as he allowed his hands to fall from the sides of her face. He did chuckle at the thought. "A shame," he offered. "If there was anyone I would allow to touch you, it would be them," he offered. "They'll be dissapointed to know it," he stated, as he turned his eyes towards the throne. "Nevertheless, I had thought that the brothel would be to your liking. A bit of a place to relax and be pampered outside of the courts," he stated, as he turned his gaze back towards the features of her face. "You had something on your mind didn't you?" he inquired. "Something that you felt we needed to discuss?" he asked, as he paced towards the steps of the throne and settled down upon them. His hands descended and rested upon his knees, his eyes never strayed from her. It was time for their talk, and he was not one to 'dodge' his wife's desire for conversation, regardless of how unfair the situation had been in her favor.
Anishal_Silveris: Her eyes sparkled with a glint of coyness as he spoke of the lust within the Twins, cocking a grin as her face turned to place a kiss filled with literal heat upon his palm. " How could they not lust after you my husband? Your prowess could be made into legend surely." Turning with him as he made his way to his Throne once again, she would follow him, sinking down at his feet, her arms crossing over his knees, her chin resting atop them as she gazed up at him. He had finally asked, and she was glad for it. She had grown to know that she was never to be disappointed. He always knew when questions rose within her mind. " I missed my son growing to manhood Damon. You blessed me with the one Pup I would ever have, and then he was taken from me. I have heard some of the words spoken between the two of you, and though I swear I understand your reasoning, I understand his as well. Time cannot be given back, and I gladly accept what time I..we.. have left with our son, but does it not disturb you, the way he feels now? Lore feels cheated as well beloved. Much as I have. I know you better then he does. I know, though I won't pretend time apart from you wears heavy upon my heart, I know you'll return. What exactly does he know of his parents? Nothing, as far as I can see.."
joseph_rahtemn* The words were spoken from her as he knew they would be. It was indeed a decision that could not be rectified, though he did think wisely upon this entire ordeal and prepared himself, for what he would tell her in reply. "Beloved wife," he offered. "Who is to say that Lore will be the only child between us?" he inquired. " No time cannot be undone, and we cannot steal back those many years. However it is wise for us to be here for our son, and hope that he will forgive us both for the decision made," he stated. His right hand descended to caress the side of her face adoringly. "I would be honored to have another child with you," he stated sincerely. "Yet, you must know that every pup, must walk away from his home at some point, at some time, that pup must grow into the Dragon that he is meant to be," he offered wisely, as his fingertips ascended. "I will post you this question my love," he offered, as his features grew heavy with thought, and his voice became as serious as ever. "I will grant you my seed again, but.." he offered. "It will be your decision to make this time. Will we explain to our child who I am, and what I do. Or leave him, or her in the darkness as we did Lore?" he inquired. "My decision remains the same beloved. However, this time it is your word that we will heed." he explained, ever so seriously. "It has been too long and I beg your forgiveness, my love," he stated, as he ascended to his feet and slid his hands down to her arms to lift her up before him. A deep breath was taken as he leaned forward and gently brushed the soft flesh of his lips against her cheek. "I have unlocked the third and final portion of The Ba'al stone, and I fear that I may lose myself to it, if I do not have you and Lore close to me," he explaiend. "Lore has considered joining me at my side, and if he does, then most assuredly I will be safe from the trappings of the infernal stone," he said. "If we should have another child beloved," he whispered, sliding his hands down along her waist, to rest his hands upon her hips. "Then, with all of us together, then my success is assured," he stated as he turned his head and kissed her cheek. Slowly he drew back and slid his hands up to cup her cheeks adoringly. "My work is almost complete, and once finished I will have no more need to be locked away from you, or my child," he stated as his hand descended to rest upon her stomach. "What say you Anishal?" he inquired. "This time, explain the truth to our child?" he inquired, as his fingertips tensed into her hips gently. "I desire another child beloved," he whispered into her ear.
Anishal_Silveris: She listened to his words, took them in with all the seriousness they were given forth with. For many long moments she would gaze into his features, his eyes, and her heart would indeed swell at the thought of bearing another child. To be a mother again, with perhaps the chance to raise this one from birth? Sighing softly, she would stand as he urged her, her head lowered somewhat as thoughts raced through her mind. How would Lore feel about such a thing? To have a sibling, yet to have one that got a chance he never did? To have the reason as to why Damon had been gone from her this last so long opened to her finally, she understood things deeper. She would lean into him as he whispered to her his desires, his need. Another child would assure he would remain at her side? How could she refuse such a temptation? Still.. " I would love nothing more then to bear another child with you my Mate. I accept your offer, yet I request one boon. That we talk with Lore, let him know our plans. Find out his thoughts. I can't leave our son in the dark about our lives any longer. Can you understand that?"
joseph_rahtemn* A smile ascended upon the features of his face as he leaned back and chuckled lightly. "Yes, I had thought the same thing. Once morning comes and we have our chance to speak with Lore on the matter, we will discuss our options further," he stated as he leaned forward and slid his fingertips up to the sides of her face. "I believe it would be interesting to see how Lore will respond, for I indeed have been curious as to how he would deal with such a situation," he stated as he leaned forward and ascended to his feet. "Yes, I agree," he offered, as his slid his hands down to her shoulders and then rolled his hands down to take hold of her own. "We will speak to him together and see what he thinks," he decided finally, as he leaned forward and gently allowed his mouth to embrace her own. "Though tonight, I believe we should spend the night together," he offered as his fingertips descended to graze over the tops of her partially exposed breasts. "I have missed you dearly, and I think that we have a great deal of catching up to do," he stated, as he slid his arm around her and drew her close to his body.
Anishal_Silveris: And indeed she did make her appearence. The Empress eased her cool way through the massive doors into the Throne Room, sapphire eyes flecked with mercury stars settling upon the rather lovely woman knelt before her Lord. Her flesh of silver shone within the lights, quicksilver mane dancing to her knees glinting brightly as well.

Another child would assure he would remain at her side? How could she refuse such a temptation? Still.. " I would love nothing more then to bear another child with you my Mate. I accept your offer, yet I request one boon. That we talk with Lore, let him know our plans. Find out his thoughts. I can't leave our son in the dark about our lives any longer.

Once morning comes and we have our chance to speak with Lore on the matter, we will discuss our options further," he stated as he leaned forward and slid his fingertips up to the sides of her face. "I believe it would be interesting to see how Lore will respond, for I indeed have been curious as to how he would deal with such a situation," he stated as he leaned forward and ascended to his feet. "Yes, I agree," he offered, as his slid his hands down to her shoulders and then rolled his hands down to take hold of her own. "We will speak to him together and see what he thinks," he decided finally, as he leaned forward and gently allowed his mouth to embrace her own. "Though tonight, I believe we should spend the night together," he offered as his fingertips descended to graze over the tops of her partially exposed breasts. "I have missed you dearly, and I think that we have a great deal of catching up to do," he stated, as he slid his arm around her and drew her close to his body.
