every king had a story, of ancient glory,sweetly told

It was curious, really, that when the very symbol for Sebastian's family line was that ever-majestic lion that the vampire himself should have adopted those deer as his own personal emblem of sorts and quite by accident he was assured. Even Matteo had so commented on the deer that seemed to surround Sebastian in his visions. Those animals, in their own right, a symbol of so terribly much that Dorian had become quite enchanted with the creatures. They did not hold the same majesty as a lion in any sense and yet the Monarch enjoyed their sleekness, the way they ran and leapt and too- a stag with his ever impressive rack of horns was surely just as spellbinding as any lion ever was- if not slightly less ostentatious in a way the reminded him distinctly off his lover. It was, Dorian was assured, a perfect animal for the man he so adored and one he had taken no small amount of time in crafting to appear as life-like as possible in that bronze. That featured wall behind providing that sound of rain that they had both come to adore. Those neatly placed lights assuring those deer could be seen in their frivolity even in the dark. Dorian distinctly proud of his efforts and yet he cared only for Sebastian's opinion on it. After all, the thoughts of any other hardly mattered to him in the slightest as he lent back into that embrace of his consort the moment the man's hands rested upon his waist. Dorian allowing his silver gaze to glance upward to view that look of surprise that lingered upon the vampires features, that simper of satisfaction tracing his own at those near whispered words of thanks.

The Fae King all-too eagerly returned that simple kiss he was offered. Dorian quite assured there was no place he was more content then so nestled within his lovers arms in the private confines of their bedroom where so much of the world could be shut out and forgotten so it might be them alone. Yet, the near subtle sounds of that rain and too that soft glow of that moon above so had a habit of tugging at the ever curious King's thoughts. Dorian so eternally enjoying the exploration of any and every idea his mind might present to him. The Fae hardly having forgotten that promise made so long ago upon the street outside those glass gardens Sebastian had once taken him too. Dorian so having assured the vampire that, one day, he would let him take him entirely in any fashion he might desire beneath the moon. Dorian wholly aware that such a thing was a fantasy of sorts for his Consort- one the vampire had been distinctly patient in waiting for the Monarch himself to have that desire to fulfil. Dorian so having embraced that modern world and its customs entirely enough to so finally cast aside those barriers of the past and engage in such fanciful indulgences. He shifted easily within Sebastian's arms then, that very idea upon his lips as Sebastian abruptly stepped forward to pin him between that window and the man himself. The simple closeness of their figures so prompting that ready reaction from the King, that single, soft sound of satisfaction stirring loosely within his throat at that decided tease he knew well he was being afforded and distinctly enjoyed all at once. Ah, but how he adored it when Sebastian so played that game right back!

His arms rose upward to entwine about the vampire's neck in that purely affectionate gesture, that very idea offered then. Dorian largely oblivious to the notion Sebastian himself had so considered that very thing not moments ago. The vampire's very physique surely giving him away in that moment. Dorian so briefly glancing downward, one eye arching upward in a clear amusement at that all too obvious pleasure his lover so clearly took from the idea alone. That soft chuckle rising within his throat then as Sebastian readily assured him he would be entirely willing to show him how enjoyable those outdoor activities might prove to be. His lovers eternal willingness to embrace near any and every idea Dorian so offered only for prompting that utter love he so had for his fiancé. Another kiss was stolen from him then, Dorian quite near craving that affection before Sebastian's admittance that his grand plan had been thusly foiled saw the Monarch's own gaze roll with that playful intent.

"I shall look forward to your showing me the outdoors. As for this plan of yours, how do you know it is not I marrying you so that I might shamelessly exploit your decided skills within the bedroom for the rest of my life, hmm?"

That ready grin so found his lips all the same. Dorian chuckling once more as he offered those accented lyrics. That near reluctant admittance from Sebastian that he had forgotten that promise made so long ago to enjoy those outdoors prompting a mock sigh from the Monarch, that smile hardly faltering. Dorian so desperately relishing these single moments shared between them no matter how playful or foolish. How glorious it was to exist as himself and not that King the world looked upon.

"I am quite assured that is why you have me, so I might remind you of the things you have forgotten."

He shifted but once more within Sebastian's arms then, Dorian quite relishing that brush of his figure against the man's own as he shifted to stand behind him, his arms remaining draped about his neck all the same as his head rested softly on the other mans shoulder. The Italian content to present his lover with those suggestions for the evening then. After all, it was his birthday, Dorian quite certain that birthdays were made for being enjoyed in whatever way the being celebrating it might desire. His lips pressed near suggestively to his lovers neck all the same, that soft groan he was rewarded with entirely satisfying. How he enjoyed that sensitivity! Sebastian's neck so eternally capable of prompting those wants within his lover even when the vampire had not yet fed. Dorian paused briefly in that display of affection to allow the man to choose which idea he might like to take up. That warm simper finding his lips at Sebastian abrupt announcement to do all of them. Dorian chuckling softly against his skin then as his lips pressed back to his neck to trail down to his shoulder. The Fae pausing abruptly.

"I think that sounds a splendid idea, although it is so that I wish to table an amendment. I think, perhaps, we should start with those things I cannot be held accountable for...."

To so retrieve that dessert from Elizabeth, after all, would so require an addition of pants. Dorian so holding little desire to attempt to coax his figure into such restricting clothing when those wants had already made themselves clear. The Monarch shifting ever so slightly closer to his lover then, if only to assure Sebastian was distinctly aware of the press of those desires that quite demanded they be attended too. His arms slid softly from about his Consorts neck then, one hand reaching forward to flick that curtain back in place and across that window before coming to rest on Sebastian's waist. Dorian remaining behind the man all the same. His free hand brushed smoothly along his lover's side only to flatten gently upon that toned stomach, gliding downward then and towards those most intimate areas. Dorian afforded the length of his lover that singular stroke before abruptly allowing his hand to slide away, over that right thigh and between them to brush over one side of his lovers butt. Dorian's lips returned to his lovers neck in that same moment as he allowed his fingers to find that valley sorts behind the man, tracing over that place he so normally left till last in their intimate embraces. His lover afforded a plethora of new sensations now. Dorian working his way upward with those warm kisses till right beneath Sebastian's jaw. A distinct tease to those heated words then, those lyrics little more than a whisper.

"Of course, if you reeeaaaaally wanted to go down stairs first I suppose we can."
