- Fantasy is number one. Steampunk, sci-fi, alternate history, and everything else that isn't boringly realistic are also fine by me.
"I will miss you as well," He admitted, but did not echo her other sentiments. If he had his way, he might never see her again. It was too much risk, too much danger, too much intrigue and betrayal for him by half. It wasn't the sort of relationship he wanted, not the sort of life he could live. He was too old and too set in his ways. When the door shut behind him, he strode off to lunch resolute to never again be tempted. Of course, he made the same vows every time he left her...
"Oh, relying on a mage for sanity. There's a great idea, love," he laughed, kissing the younger man back not near as lightly. The bed was so close, so tempting... but he daren't make his lover late, not again. Instead, with a wicked smile he trailed his hand down Sam's side, then over his hip, fingers gentle and teasing. It was cruel, he knew, to get the boy started and leave, but the thought of the young nobleman squirming as he tried to converse normally with his future betrothed was just too tempting. "You're going to be late," he murmured after a moment, drawing away. "Don't let me keep you."
Her arms instantly crossed in front of her chest. "No," The Archmage replied, her voice cold and unyielding. "When it came time to put something between my legs, you always had the time. Well, guess what. You put something in, you get something out. Make time." She hated talking with him, hated the reminder of how stupid she had been to trust him. He had only wanted her for a good tumble, only wanted her to kill his enemy for him. Not that she wouldn't have been okay with either one of those things, but she would have been smarter about it if she'd known he had every intention of leaving her as soon as the battle was done. "He's your son as much as mine, unfortunately, and I'll be damned if I let you cast him aside like you do everyone else you can't manipulate anymore."
