Oriana pushed the door open for the kitchen and looked back at him ,"Make yourself comfortable... I'll go get some wine, Okay?"
Without waiting for an answer she left to go threw the cellar door behind the grand stairwell.

Auren did what was asked and flopped onto a kitchen chair, staring at the rich wood that composed the table. Sighing heavily, he stared at his battered reflection in the polished table.
"And to think, I sacrificed so much in the name of mere gold... No, I didn't. We stopped caring about the money a few months in once it seemed how important we were..."
Leaning his head on the table, he brooded to himself.

Oriana walked through the rows of wine that had been maid throughout the lifetime of her father. she selected one off the shelf and nodded, "This one will do..."
Before returning to the kitchen she decided to look around for a few bottles that her father might like for when he comes in a week.
She picked a few and set them on a shelf near the door for safe keeping, then shut the door and began walking up the stairs.

Auren sighed as he listened her come up the stairs. Truth be told, he wanted to drink himself blind drunk, make hot passionate love to Oriana all night, then sleep all damn day the next day, periodically getting up to get water.
Auren guessed the chances of that actually happening. A grand total of 0%.
That sucked.
***
In another dimension.
"Aestivalis, I have tracked your prey... He is a long standing enemy of mine and had foiled me one too many times. You are going to the Branch of Aquious. Find the General Auren Shiro, and terminate him. It will not be hard to find him, if at all."
Aestivalis stood up from kneeling, bowed deeply, and left the hall.

Just as Oriana was about to enter the kitchen, she checked the date, and realized that after picking out a few bottles for her father, she had grabbed the wrong one. Groaning she shuffled back to the Cellar door and down the stairs to retrieve the correct bottle.

Auren sighed and got up from the table to head to where she was. "What's wrong, love?" he asked her as he entered the Hall with the stairs.

She shut the cellar door and began walking up the stairs to Auren, "Aww, I just grabbed the wrong wine... I picked out a few for when my father was coming, and i grabbed one of those instead of the one i wanted to drink."
Oriana reached the top of the stairs and kissed his cheek, "Well, Want some wine?" She held out the bottle to him and showed the date it was made, "That's my birthday... Papa has wine for every important day."

"To be perfectly honest, my love, I don't care what I drink right now, as long as I get thoroughly drunk and can forget my problems for a short time. That and make long, hot and passionate love to you to make up for the fact that we were seperated for three years."
He hugged her gently, wrapping his arms around her waist. "On the other hand, just cuddling with you and drinking the excellent wine that was prepared is another alternative that I would love to do."
~~~
Aestivalis stood at the mouth of the Gate. Somewhere, he knew, his target lay on the other side. Checking his armor and sword, he gave a satisfied grunt before stepping through it.
While Aquious was safe from invasion, some of its denizens would feel the touch of Lord Tarazael in their own home.

"I'll go with the relaxing and cuddling over a few glasses of wine..." she purred as she wrapped her arms around him, "... And if you're lucky, it might lead to something more." Oriana kissed him softly, then let him go to get two crystal glasses from the kitchen.

Auren chuckled softly as he retreated to a den, curling up on the couch after he kicked off his boots. Draping himself over the couch much like a cat, he waited for Oriana to come back.

Oriana followed a bit behind him and set a glass down on the end table. She twirled a screw into the cork and pulled hard. with a loud pop, the bottle was opened and she poured two glasses. Handing one to Auren and smiled, "To a bright future?" She asked as she tipped her glass toward him.

Auren smiled back and clinked the glass with hers. "To a bright future." before sipping the wine and moving over for Oriana to cuddle against him. Wrapping an arm around her, he set the wine on the end table behind him and nuzzled her neck, comfortable.

She giggled softly and after a sip of wine, she laid next to him. Brushing a hand through his hair she kissed him softly and smiled, "I love you. I know I probably say it too much, but for a while I thought I was never going to get the chance to..."

Auren smiled "I know the feeling~ Believe me, I was afraid I was never going to see you again." Sighing he reached back and sipped his wine before turning his attention back to her.
"Well, its nothing to worry about now~" he said with a smile.

She kissed him a few more times, then kissed his cheek, chin, neck. her fingers pressed into his chest, then slowly drug downward, wrapped around his waist and rested there.
