                  Chapter VII. Partings

Collin pulled her closer against his chest, his hands softly caressing 
her breasts, he heard her moan, he came awake, for a moment confused, 
looking at the sleeping woman in his arms he smiled softly at her.  This 
was what he wanted, to feel her warm body and see her sweet face as he 
woke each morning, to hear her gentle breathing and feel it against his 
skin.  His hand lay on her stomach, he gently rubbed his hand back and 
forth, A hatchling, no he corrected himself, a child, a human child, grew 
in her womb, he smiled, imagining her with a babe suckling at her breast.  
He couldn't in this form see if it was a male or female child, but that 
wasn't important all that mattered was that it thrived and grew strong.  
Once born, then he would teach it to survive in this harsh world of humans.  
Thinking once again of a child at her breast he leaned down and kissed 
her nipple, his hands caressed her body, his hard cock rubbed against 
her hip with a soft sound she turned to him in her sleep.  He slipped 
between her thighs, wanting to see her wake to his entering her.  Her 
eyes slowly opened, she looked up at him and murmured his name, her arms 
slipping around his neck, she gasped as he slowly thrust into her, he 
leaned down and kisses her "good morn, MiLady" he smiled as his hips moved, 
slowly, savoring every movement, she returned the kiss and smiled softly 
back "good morn, My Lord."  Collin heard the door open and looked over 
his shoulder to see Mary standing holding a pitcher of hot water, her 
mouth open as if to say something.  She blinked several times, then 
quickly turned and left the room, shutting the door firmly behind her, 
she giggled and headed for the kitchen, just wait till Harriett heard 
the latest news.  

MiLady groaned and pushed at Collins shoulders, "ohh, Collin, she saw us" 
blushing vividly, Milady pressed her face against his shoulder, Collin, 
chuckled "so she did, lass" kissing her deeply, his hips moving once 
again MiLady moaned and forgot Mary.  A long time later as he lay holding 
her in his arms, he heard once again Marluxion's words and turned, kissing 
her lightly "Katrina, we must talk" she saw the serious look on his face 
and heard the concern in his voice, sshe looked at him and touched his 
cheek "what is it? Collin" his hand softly caressing her face "I have 
to  leave, Katrina, I will be gone a month" not wanting to say it but 
knowing he must, "I may be gone longer, I don't know yet, if I am, I 
will send you a messenger, to let you know."  He saw the look on her 
face and pulled her tightly against him "I don't want to go, Katrina 
but I have to, this is something I can't put off, it has to be taken 
care of."  She wanted to cry and hold onto him, never letting him go 
but she nodded and kissed him softly "a month isn't such a long time, 
mayhaps your business will conclude even sooner" she said more to reassure 
herself.  Collin said nothing only kissed her hard, then slapped her on 
her sweet bottom "I had better return to my room before Mary comes back 
and Jack starts looking for me."  As Collin was pulling on his dressing 
gown, which he found laying over the back of a chair, he tried not to 
watch her getting out of the rumpled bed.  If he did, he would end up 
tossing her on her back and loving her again. MiLady slipped her robe 
on and seeing the casket sitting on the mantel, she smiled, Collin seeing 
the smile and where she was looking, raised an eyebrow.  "I had the most 
amazing dream last night Collin, there were fairies like Bitsy, and elves 
and even Unicorns" she said wonder filled her voice.  She started to tell 
him of the dragon in her dream but stopped, for some reason she didn't 
want to mention the dragon, she had been oddly drawn to it, she knew it 
was the dragon, she had seen that one time, as she lay hurting in its arms. 
She remembered his gentle touch and the feel of him on his fingertips, 
warm and like smooth fine leather.  Remembering his own dream, Collin 
only smiled at her, he wondered what Marluxion had been doing, giving 
such dreams.  Two conflicting dreams, he shouldn't have put such dreams 
in her mind or perhaps it was better this way, better to have her dream 
of what she thought were fantasies, then dream of the man who was leaving, 
perhaps to never return.  Not liking the direction his thoughts were taking, 
Collin pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately then left the 
room.

Collin entered his room to see Jack sitting waiting for him, "We have 
today and tomorrow, to finish things here, if you have any good-byes 
to say, best get them done with, we must be on the rode by dawn of the 
third day" Collin told Jack, as he washed and dressed for the day.  
Seeing the unhappy look on Collins face, Jack asked "I gather you didn't 
send for Marluxion, I'm wondering how he came to know about this whole 
thing, not that the old dragon doesn't have ways of finding out everything, 
just caught me by surprise it did."  Collin rasped out "No, I didn't 
send for him, although I did wish a time or two that he were here,  I 
do have my suspicions though about how he heard what I was doing."
Jack unable to control himself any longer jumped up and idly folding 
Collins dressing gown several times looked at Collin "Marluxion didn't 
happen to mention a chore or two he might be having for me, did he?  
Collin even though preoccupied with his own thoughts heard the worry 
in Jacks voice and shaking his head, told him that Marluxion had not 
mentioned any chores, but then he rarely told anyone anything except 
in his own good time. "I'm sure he will let you know soon, Marluxion 
doesn't keep people waiting needlessly, and if he called it a chore, 
well it's probably something minor, or he would have used the word 
task" Collin said trying to ease the look of worry on Jack's face. 
"You should be dancing with glee at the idea of getting out of that 
human body and back to your old self, my friend."  Jack grinned, "it's 
the truth I won't miss this scrawny body and being back to my good 
hearty superior elf self, why the ladies must be missing me something 
fierce" preened Jack, thinking of a grand homecoming.

Collin and Jack entered the dining hall, they turned as they heard 
feminine laughter coming from the kitchen and watched MiLady rushing 
out into the dining hall, her face rosy with blushes, composing herself, 
she smiled at Collin, then wished Jack a good morning.  Jack couldn't 
help grinning and told her "some better then others, MiLady" then laughed 
as Collin glared at him.  They sat next to each other, finding excuses 
to touch hands, smiling at each other, every once in a while Collins 
hand slipped under the table to rest on her thigh.  Everyone in the 
hall watched and smiled, please for them both MiLady was well loved 
and over the time that Collin had  been there, the men had grown to 
respect him as a fair man and a worthy Knight.  After the morning meal, 
Collin went into the study, he sent for several people to join him, 
Marcus was the first to enter, an older Knight, a 3rd son who had earned 
his way and knew how to conduct himself, he bowed to Collin "You sent 
for me? My Lord."  Collin informed Marcus of his impending departure, 
and gave him numerous instructions, appointing him Commander of the 
guards and Keep.  Marcus was well pleased and assured Collin everything 
would be run as it should be.  Collin dismissed Marcus as Henry entered 
the room, Henry was a very thin slight man, who had tried to eek out a 
living on the old Dukes land as a farmer, he was a miserable failure at 
farming and had it not been for the help of those at the keep he and his 
family probably would have starved long ago.  "Henry, I have to leave 
for a short period of time, I can't leave the keep unattended, I need 
someone to do the ledgers and see to assisting MiLady in the running of 
the place, would you be interested in the position?"  Henry almost fainted 
with relief, he had been so afraid that he had finally worn out his welcome 
and would be told to take his family and leave.  Henry beaming with pleasure 
took the position offered, he had always been good with numbers and unlike 
most of the farmers of his day could read and write, he ran out of the room 
in a hurry to tell his family, then came running back into the study, 
apologizing for having left without leave.  Collin smiled and dismissed 
the man, knowing he had made the right choice.

The day went by quickly, too quickly, but Collin wanted everything taken 
care of, he tried to think of all the things that needed to be done and 
wrote page after page of notes planning on leaving them for Henry.  He 
didn't want to leave anything to chance, one part of him said he would 
be back in a month, the other said this was a final last act as Collin 
the man.  He wrote four last letter's and sealed them then sent for Drapper, 
the sun was setting as Drapper entered the room, he nodded to Collin and 
sat down in the chair infront of the desk.  Collin looks tired thought 
Drapper with concern, "Drapper, we've been friends for a long time, I 
have a favor to ask you, if you refuse I will understand, but let me 
say what I have to first, then if you want, think it over and let me 
know, no later then tomorrow at noon" Drapper settled into the chair 
and listened carefully.  "I have here four letters, one to the king, 
explaining the death of Kurlew and the banishing of Dame Agnes, also 
the hand the Uncle had in the whole affair.  The second is a letter to 
MiLady's Uncle the Count, telling him about the letter to the King and 
advising him to find another bride for his son and that I have suggested 
the King appoint a new guardian for Katrina.  My suggestion is that you 
be that guardian" Collin held up his hand for Drapper to wait, seeing 
Drapper about to say something.  "I know you're the old Dukes brother 
born on the wrong side of the blankets, I also know it was your choice 
as a young man to remain here.  I also know that Katrina is your daughter, 
that you and her mother loved each other but she had to marry a man of 
wealthy, that her father gave her no choice.  I also know you have never 
loved another woman but her.  The old Duke never knew of his wife's love 
for you, he also never knew that Katrina was not his child.  
Drapper walked to the window and looked out into the gardens, he took 
a deep breath, Collin waited "and the other two letters?" Drapper asked 
quietly not looking at Collin.  "The one is to Katrina, explaining why 
I couldn't return, of my love for her and how this whole thing came 
about.  The other is a letter to my unborn child, speaking of my love 
for his mother, my deep pain and regret at not being here to see him 
grow to adulthood" Collins voice broke but he continued on "these letters 
I entrust to you Drapper, only to be sent and given at the end of a months 
time, if I can't return.  You will know which it is to be, if I do return 
I will still send the letter's to the King and Count, then with relief 
cast the other two into the fireplace to be burnt never needing to be 
read."  Drapper turned from the window and looked at Collin for a long 
time.  "A child? You can't know if she bears your child or not, its to 
soon, Collin, as to the rest, I will do as you request and keep the 
letters safe. You aren't returning are you?  The dragon in you is to 
strong." With a weary sigh Collin put his head in his hands "I don't 
know, Drapper, I just don't know, but I have to find out, as to the 
child, yes, there is a child growing in her womb" Drapper actually 
smiled, amazed he could still smile after all he had heard.  "Marluxion, 
told you?"  Collin nodded, then smiled back at Drapper, a pleased male 
smile, he started to say more but the door to the study opened and MiLady 
came in smiling at the two men.

She held her hand out to Collin "supper is about to be served, you must 
be hungry after staying hidden away in your study all day" neither man 
missed the reference to YOUR study.  Collin took her hand in his and 
bowed gracefully, kissing the back of her hand, he smiled, then stood 
tucking her arm in his. They left the room followed by Drapper, who 
watched the two with grave concerns.  Supper was a merry affair, with 
much laughter and good natured jokes passing around, MiLady was determined 
not to let Collin see how unhappy she was at the idea of his leaving.  
Collin smiled and leaned over whispering to her "tomorrow the day is 
yours, we will spend the day doing whatever you wish"  he wanted her 
to have good memories of him, hoping bad one's wouldn't over shadow the 
others. She smiled at him and wanted to hug him but they were in the 
dining hall and there was enough talk as it was.  She looked around 
the hall noticing that Drapper was no where to be seen "didn't Drapper 
come in to supper behind us?  I don't see him, do you think everything 
is all right, perhaps I should go out to the stables and check on him, 
he looked rather pale" Collin touched her hand "Drapper will be fine, 
lass, he probably is thinking up new ways to make Jack annoyed" he left 
it at that and said no more about Drapper.  MiLady stood up after the 
meal was over and looked at Collin with an inquiring look he smiled at 
her, "I still have a few things to see to, lass, but I will join you 
later."  She sat in the large chair by the fireplace, sewing and chatting 
with the serving girls and scullery maids, her glance kept going to 
Collin as he spoke to some of the men, with much masculine ribald laughter.  
Sitting there quietly, she looked down at her sewing but didn't see the 
cloth in her hand but a dragon, flying, soaring through the night she 
didn't understand why the dragon should keep returning to her thoughts 
again and again.  MiLady bid the men goodnight and entered the tower 
room,  Mary was there pouring a touch of scent into MiLady's bath, after 
her bath, MiLady sat and let Mary brush out her long, thick hair.  Mary 
started to braid it and MiLady shook her head "leave it loose tonight, 
Mary" Mary watched MiLady blushing and kept up her chatter, then realizing 
she wasn't going to ask, Mary thought it was time for a little womanly 
instructions.  MiLady tried not to blush and look like she knew what 
Mary was talking about, then finally gave up and with a brightly blushing 
face started to ask Mary questions, by the time Mary wished her good night, 
MiLady was giggling wildly to herself.  She sat there thinking of all the 
things that Mary had told her and giggled again, taking off her nightdress 
she got into bed waiting for Collin, she fell asleep to once again dream 
of fairies, elves and a dragon.  Collin slipped into the bed, looking 
down at her sleeping form he smiled tenderly as he watched her smile 
in her sleep and wondered what she dreamt of.  He pulled her into his 
arms and kissed her softly, she smiled in her sleep and murmured "yes, 
please, kiss me again." Collin chuckled and kissed her a bit harder 
this time, her eye's slowly opened and for a second he thought he saw 
disappointment then she spoke his name, her voice sleepy and warm.  He 
forgot what he had seen in her eye's as he made love to her.  He fell 
asleep with her held snug in his arms, his dreams were filled with her, 
laughing in the garden, playing with a small child, then his dream changed  
and he was a dragon, holding the woman in his arms.

She woke during the night and lay watching Collin sleep, she carefully 
pulled down the covers to look her fill of his body, leaning over she 
softly kissed his chest, she tried not to giggle as she thought of some 
of the things that Mary had said.  Her tongue touched first one nipple 
then the other, she slide her fingers through the hair on his chest, then 
let her finger tips follow the line of hair to his groin.  Hesitating just 
for a moment she slide her fingers through the hair around his penis, she 
was startled to see his penis jump in response, she quickly looked up at 
Collin and seeing his eye's still closed, she put out a finger and ran it 
up and down the length of him, watching him harden even more, she touched 
the tip of his penis watching it jerk at her touch again.  Wrapping her 
hand around his now rigid penis she started to slide her hand up and down 
its length, she heard Collin groan and quickly pulled her hand away, he 
reached down and took her hand and placed it back on his penis "touch 
all you want, lass"  She became bolder in her touch until he was clinching 
his teeth and about to explode.  He rolled her onto her back and quickly 
thrust into her, as he heard her moan and clinch around him he shuddered 
and let go, he moaned as he felt his own throbbing release flood her womb, 
taking deep breaths he rested on his elbows and kissed her, pleased at 
the look of satisfaction on her face, Collin rolled to his side and held 
her as they both once again fell asleep.

The day dawned bright and sunny, Mary rapped loudly on the door before
entering, not wanting to get caught again with her mouth hanging open 
like a demented fool.  Hearing Collin call for her to come in, Mary grinned 
and opened the door, taking the breakfast try from Mathew she winked at him, 
"you need to start doing guard duty during the day."  Mathew grinned back 
at her "I just might be doin that Mary me girl" she winked again and went 
inside.  Placing the breakfast tray on the table she smiled not looking 
at the people in the bed "since it's to be a day all to yourselves, I 
thought you might like to breakfast here" MiLady smiled and thanked Mary 
for her thoughtfulness, before MiLady could say another word, Mary also 
informed her that the bath water was on it's  way up. She grinned at MiLady 
"I don't think you'll be needing me to help this morning" she bobbed a 
curtsy and left the room, laughing to herself.  They spent the morning 
laughing and loving playing as they ate, Jack knocked and entered the 
room bringing Collin his clothes, he carefully avoided looking at MiLady 
who had hastily pulled on her dressing gown at his knock.  Jack informed 
the two in a gruff voice, I will be in the stables if you need me" then 
left the two alone once again.  The two lovers spent the rest of the day 
hand in hand, wandering the keep, walking through the bailey, Harriett 
sent a picnic basket out to the gardens, where they sat on a blanket and 
ate, feeding each other, laughing and kissing often.  Collin spread the 
blanket beneath a large tree and the two napped in each others arms.  
Soon the sun was setting and they returned to the keep, later sitting 
at supper in the dining hall, they continued to smile and talk even 
though it became harder and harder to smile, to laugh.  Later as the 
fire burnt low in the great fireplace, she stood and bid everyone a 
good night and left the room, she ran up the tower stairs, gaining her 
room just as the tears came.  Collin walked into the room and took her 
into his arms, holding her tight "no tears lass, a month is not such a 
long time, I will be riding back in the gates before you can even miss 
me."  She turned a tear stained face to him and kissed him "promise you 
will be back to me, please promise that you will come back, Collin, I 
need to hear you promise."  He gently cupped her face in his hands and 
returned her kiss "I promise I will return to you, no matter how or in 
what form, I will come back."  She thought that an odd way to put a promise 
but those thoughts quickly left her as he kissed her passionately and 
started to remove her clothes.  They made love, wildly, franticly. all 
night long. He with thoughts that this would be the last time he made 
love to her, held her in his mortal human arms.  She with thoughts that 
this was the last time she would ever have to love him, even with his 
promise she was so afraid he was going out of her life forever.

They heard a knock on the door and Jack calling "its time Collin" then 
his steps walking away, Collin crushed her in his arms, holding her, 
looking out at the sky.  "I will dress and walk out with you" she spoke 
softly, trying not to cry. He kissed her "no, lass, stay here, let me 
take the sight of you, well loved and warm in bed, with me until I return."  
He dressed quickly, buckling on his sword and picking up his riding cape 
he turned and strode back to the bed, he leaned down and kissed her hard, 
hugging her tight. Then he left the room, not noticing a gold and green 
scarf falling from where it had been tied around his sword hilt.  Collin 
walked out into the bailey and took his stallions reins from Drapper, 
"you have the letters safe?" Drapper nodded, Collin touched Drapper on 
the shoulder "take care of them for me, Drapper" he then swung up into 
the saddle and turning waved to those watching him leave. He turned to 
watch Jack climb up onto his donkey, then rode out of the gate, not daring 
to look back.  She stood at the window watching him ride away, clutching 
the scarf to her breast, she watched until he could no longer be seen 
but still stood staring out the window.
