My Brother

Talii let the water run over her body as she grabbed the soap and a washcloth and started to lather the piece of cloth. Just as the soapy material touched her flesh, the bathroom entrance burst open and a drunken guard stumbled through into the chamber, slamming the door behind him. Throwing the shower curtain to the side, he clambered into the shower, clothes and all, and shoved Talii against the wall, causing her to drop her things. One of his hands held her mouth tightly shut so she couldn’t scream while his other hand kept her pinned to the tile.

Talii screamed into the males hand, her voice muffled as she tried to move in the steely grasp. Talii was sure the loud noise had attracted someone and sure enough less than a minute later, Caleb burst in. his eyes quickly scanned the area, absorbing the situation in a matter of seconds before he snarled and grabbed the guard by the back of his collar and yanking him from Talii’s form. The guard hollered and then went silent when he hit the wall, a groan emanating from his lips as he rubbed the back of his head.

Talii’s legs were weak and she held back the need to cry as she used the shower wall for support, the hot water still running against her skin. Caleb stood between her and the guard until Marcus came storming in, rage etched into his features. As he got the information from Caleb, his eyes immediately went to Talii.

"Are you okay?" He asked, walking over to her in two long strides. His hands gently rested on her elbows, his eyes scanning her bare flesh.

"I’m fine." She responded in a shaky voice, "Just a bit startled."

Caleb’s eyes stayed on Talii and Marcus before slowly drifting towards the male slumped against the wall. "Should I deal with him?" He asked, his voice low and husky, making a shiver run down Talii’s spine.

"No." Marcus growled, turning to face the two. His clothes were soaked now and he turned the shower off before stepping out. "I’ll deal with him personally."

Caleb had trouble trying to hide his smile as he nodded and let Marcus drag the nearly unconscious guard outside and down the hallway before he slowly closed the door behind him.

Talii had started the shower back up and was sticking her hand under the water to determine if the temperature was the liking before she slipped back in. Caleb watched her silently, leaning against the door as she pulled the shower curtain back across and once more resumed what she had been doing.

"Are you sure you’re all right?" he asked, pushing off the wall and moving towards the shower. His cold eyes speculating Talii in front of him, seemingly roaming over her body like invisible fingers.

"I’m fine Caleb." Talii responded, eyes closed as she scrubbed the soap over her body once more. A few minutes later she felt Caleb’s hands slip around her waist and pull her close to him. Talii stopped scrubbing her body and her eyes lazily opened to watch the soap and the washcloth fall to the bottom of the shower once more. The roughness of Caleb’s clothes, now wet, felt awkward against her bare skin.

"I’m fine." She repeated as he placed gentle kisses along her neckline and up to her left ear.

"Positive?" He whispered in her ear. Talii nodded, turning slowly in Caleb’s embrace to now face him.

"He’s just down the hall." Talii established.

"So?" Caleb retorted, "When has that ever stopped you before?"

Talii went silent because she couldn’t answer him. Caleb was right, it had never stopped her before. She didn’t love Marcus like she loved Caleb and she wished more than anything her parents hadn’t agreed to the engagement.

"He’s the Prince." She finally stated.

"And you are being a very unfaithful fiancee." Caleb cooed, a wicked smile on his lovely lips.

"I’m marrying him soon." She responded quietly.

"Yes," Caleb murmured, inching closer to her, "but I don’t see you spending every night in his bed now do I?"

"He’s going to wonder-" She started, but Caleb silenced her by placing a finger over her lips.

"Why you’re not a virgin?" He finished for her.

"Yes." Talii answered, voice a whisper.

"And what are you going to say if he asks?" Caleb inquired, his voice soft in the showers roar that Talii had barley heard him.

"I’ll tell him the truth."

"That you were unfaithful? That you slept with another man before him?" Caleb questioned, "You’re willing to tarnish the Royal families name by doing this?"

"Yes." Raven mumbled as Caleb’s lips hovered over hers. Their eyes locked on to each others, both a honey brown.

"And when he ask with whom? What are you going to say?" Caleb’s fingers had slinked below Talii’s buttocks and held her firmly in place against his fully grown erection.

"My brother." She whispered before their lips met finally in a heated kiss that would of melted skin if it could.

Authors Note:
Right, I decided that I might extend it more with Talii and Caleb, maybe write one stating how it all started but I'm still not sure. If you're a bit confused about what Talii means at the end when she says 'My brother', she's basically talking about Caleb. Caleb IS her brother, and yes this is incest. Lol. The things that randomly pop into my head while getting out of the shower. Lol. >< Anywho back to what I was saying, I'm not sure on the time setting but the picture I've put it is of modern day, so if you want to think it's modern day then go ahead. Middle ages? That's fine too. =]
