regency au } { of stolen moments and being wooed

[braveandstupid]

Elena: [so after looking after Ben while Cora was in labor and being relieved of her duties, Elena wanders back towards the wing of the manor which her family has more or less claimed as their own, going in search of her husband.]

Derek: [and he has just come back from sending the youngest of their children to their naps while Patience was with her tutor]

Elena: [smiles when she sees them] How's everyone doing?

Derek: Patience is learning her letters, and the girls are hopefully sleeping.

Elena: Good. [she smiles softly] Cora is resting, but she is well and they now have a healthy baby girl.

Derek: [laughs] This is how the Hales become broke - dowries for our daughters.

Elena: [she laughs as well] Well, at least Stiles has an inheritance he can build her dowry from - he doesn't need yours. And I have some funding as well.

Derek: True, and the dowry that Laura was to give to the Argents remains in our coffers, so we are not in any trouble. But we do need to start having a few more boys or people will see us as an Amazon nation.

Elena: [she laughs, before sliding her arms around his neck] I wouldn't mind a little boy. Spending time with Ben today was very much a reminder of that.

Derek: I wouldn't mind one either. I mean, I am completely secure in knowing that my ladies control my heart, but it would be nice to even the numbers a bit.

Elena: [she laughs] Well, whenever you're ready, we should try.

Derek: Well we have maybe an hour now? [laughing]

Elena: [she laughs] How romantic.

Derek: What, have we gotten that old that quick moments in hidden nooks are beyond us?

Elena: I wouldn't say that. But I don't think they were proposed quite like that either.

Derek: That was before we had children who sneak up on us when we aren't looking. [steps closer to smile down at her, taking in her scent]

Elena: [smirks a bit before turning up her nose playfully] That doesn't mean I can just be expected to leap into your arms at a moment's notice. I still deserve to be wooed.

Derek: [leans down, kissing her right under her ear before whispering] Have I mentioned how beautiful you look today, my love?

Elena: [she closes her eyes as her head tips to the side] You have not. [probably a lie]

Derek: [kisses along her neck] You do. Every day, more and more beautiful.

Elena: [and that makes her smile] That's better.

Derek: [and he will leave her neck and kiss her, pulling her nice and close to him]

Elena: [kisses him back, melting into his arms]

Derek: [and he will gently guide her back to a little alcove tucked in the hallway that would be for archers]

Elena: [and she will follow his lead, leaning back until whatever wall he happens to press her against]

Derek: [which he will, and at an angle where anyone ooking at the archer slit wouldn't notice them as his fingers start to tease her dress skirt up]

Elena: [and she will shift to give him better access, her legs parting to steady herself better as well. as her moves closer, one hand moves lower to help him gather her skirts and one leg slides up over his hip]

Derek: [and he will step into that space, getting her to rest against him, his hips pressing up against hers once those skirts are out of the way]

Elena: [she sighs softly as she pulls him into a deeper kiss, she starts to reach down to work on his breeches]

Derek: [he wouldn't let her do that without his own hand reaching to press along her sex]

Elena: [to which she gasps against his lips, her hips lifting to meet his hand]

Derek: [he smiles against her lips, his own hips pressing against her hand as he probes deeper with his fingers]

Elena: [she moans against his lips one hand sliding around him to stroke him gently]

Derek: Oh god, Elena. [he kissed her harder, pushing her up the wall a bit to try and position her for him to enter]

Elena: [it takes some maneuvering, as he's taller than she is, but eventually she manages to push up on her toes, using his shoulders to brace herself for the press of him inside her]

Derek: [when she places him there, his hands will go to her hips to lift and guide her the rest of the way, stepping one more step towards the wall to pin her to it as he thrusts in]

Elena: [she moans softly into the kiss, gripping his shoulders tightly with one hand, while the other still holds her skirts in place]

Derek: [and he is going to kiss her deeply as he makes love to his wife against the castle wall]

Elena: [and she does her best to try and keep quiet so they don't attract attention]

Derek: [and they probably don't notice the lack of wolves within scent or hearing distance because GET A ROOM]

Elena: [DON'T JUDGE US BECAUSE WE'RE HAPPY]

Derek: [they will totally be responsible for all the werewolf sex happening that evening]

Elena: [and eventually tensed under his ministrations, before tumbling over the edge and her body relaxing with a sigh]

Derek: [and he will join her, kissing her neck and not breaking the skin]

Elena: [she smiled softly at that, before tipping her head to try and catch his lips]

Derek: [and as they kiss, he will hear the screaming voice of their youngest waking from her nap and sigh against her lips]

Elena: [sighs as well, before shifting a bit to slowly dislodge herself from him] I'll go check on her.

Derek: Okay. I need to check on the knights. I will see you at dinner.

Elena: [she nods as she sneaks one last kiss] See you then.

Derek: [savors it] Until later, my beautiful wife.

Elena: [she smiles] Until then.
