A Romantic Interlude
Forgive me..was in sap mode..heehee enjoy..tam


Dancing with him in the privacy of his chambers was one of the things she most
enjoyed about their times together. It wasn't all sex. There was romance and
slow passion that grew into something wonderous between them. Although she
knew she had to share his love with the other Scribes, she knew that when they
were together, they belonged strictly to each other. For some reason, he did
not like to see her with others and she did not pick others often, simply
because it was her nature.
Lotor had been relieved when she left Loggan on Rice-A to visit, but he had
not been pleased to know that Gorjon had a thing for her. It bothered him for
he and Gorjon had become friends and he remembered the standing offer he had
once made Gorjon after he conquered his planet. Gorjon had always joked he
never would take him up on that offer unless he found a Queen. Tamy told him
of Gorjon's proposal. Had he found his Queen?
They danced slowly, to Moonlight Seranade by Glenn Miller - one of her
favorites. He knew it would soothe her mind and her body. Lotor sensed that
she had been under stresses lately, though she did not bother him about it. He
knew she had a sense of fierce pride. It was what endeared her to him. That
and her bravery. She was also modest but passionate. She could actually stand
up to him, but she didn't do it in a way that would humiliate him in front of
others. She had a voice of reason, although at times she could become swept up
in her emotions and it would be up to him to calm her.
They danced, exchaning soft kisses between them. Tamy swayed to the music,
swept up in it. Lotor proved to be a very good dancer, considering that this
was a Teran dance he was doing. He looked into her eyes and she smiled. He
could see something shadowy behind her eyes, as if she had a secret fear
within them. It had been there for only a little while, ever since that
strange day that he awoke in his chambers, feeling like he went through
something but didn't know what.
"Tamy.." he said.
"Hmmmm.." she said, closing her eyes.
"You're hiding something from me.." Lotor whispered.
She opened her eyes. "I've told you about Gorjon.."
"I know.." A sudden flare of jealousy crossed his face.
She laughed a little. "Lotor, I never said yes to him.."
"You never said no either.." he grumbled.
Her arms tightened around his neck. "I do belong to you, Lotor and I am
honored that I am among those that you chose."
"You and the other Scribes are more than my harem.." he said gently.
"I know that, Lotor. I sensed that."
"How?" he asked, kissing her forehead.
"Oh, an instinct. I took a test once. It said I tended to operate on gut
instinct, that I knew what was right and what was wrong by my feelings. You
felt right to me - still do."
He smiled at the play on words. "As do you, my saucy wench.."
They laughed together. The song was drawing to a close. His face became
serious.
"I sense that my father has visited here though none of you have told me so.
You know I don't like that. If he takes any one of you, I shall kill him. It
is what any husband would do to avenge a wife."
She repressed a shudder but he felt it. He looked sharply at her.
"Has he tried to take you, Tamysan?" Lotor growled.
"No." she lied. "He has not. We fend him off. Hagar helps us as well."
"Hagar? Hmm..interesting. I want to believe you.." he said.
She kissed him gently. "Then believe me, Lotor. Ok? We don't like it when your
father comes into the Harem, but we trick him every time. We are the Scribes,
remember?"
"Yes.." He smiled slightly, suspecting. He would not push it. He knew if he
did, she would only remain stubbornly silent.
"Lotor..the song's over.." she said gently. They were still dancing, swaying.
Lotor gave her a lopsided smile. He saw the shadows in her eyes. He wanted to
chase them away. He lifted her up in his arms and she squealed with suprise.
"So it is, my lovely Scribe.." he whispered.
He carried her to his bed and gently laid her down. He looked down at her,
love in his eyes.
"But there is more dancing to be done, Tamysan.."
He kissed her passionately and they began a different dance...
