Thread: The Dragon Slayer's Princess (Javorcek X MissMelly)

William blinked in surprise and absently ran his hand over his beard, trying to clear whatever piece of meat of bread he had managed to get caught in his whiskers. He couldnt help but stare at the woman, as gorgeous as she had been on the other side of the room, she was much more alluring up close and angry. As she started to sway and collapse, William rushed over to her, catching her in his strong arms before she hit the floor. S-Sir! Shes a Princess! She told me! Charles ran up, breathless, panting, and flushed clearly very excited that a real princess had kissed him on the cheek! And you believe everything a common whore tells you?! Honestly William what are you teaching this boy! With a grunt, Edward leaned down, taking the unconscious woman out of Williams arms and slinging her light form over his broad shoulders. Edward what in Gods name are you doing?! William, the more sober of the two, was fairly certain that he had seen a golden necklace around the womans neck. If she wasnt a princess, she was at the very least some sort of noblewoman. Collecting my spoils of war! It been quite awhile since Ive had such a pretty young thing in my bed. The burly man chuckled, licking his lips hungrily as he patted the young maiden on the ass. Oh dont look it me like that! Ill pay her when she wakes up. Put her down! You fool! When Edward merely growled at him like a dog with a bone that wasnt about to give up his new treat, William had no other choice than use force. He kicked out the back of the massive mans knee and pulled a quick punch to the base of his skull, knocking him out cold. As Edward tumbled to the ground, William managed to catch the woman in the red gown before she ended up on the dirty floor with his friend. This wouldve all been so much easier if she was just a courtesan. Charles, be a good lad and go see if you could find some of Edwards comrades to come collect him? I believe they are staying at the Red Dragon Inn. Oh and leave some money for the drinks and the mess. Ill be in my room waiting for our guest to wake up if you need me. With the woman still unconscious, William could only sigh. Well it looked as though he wouldnt be getting any sleep in his own bed tonight. The young knight carried her out of the brothel and a couple of buildings away to the tavern he was staying at. Having an unconscious woman in his arms earned him a few looks, but since most of the townspeople had witnessed his match against Edward in the Tournament, no one questioned him. Once in his room, he carefully lay the woman down on the straw mattress and pulled the covers over her body. The urge to kiss her was quite strongthose pouty lips, that creamy skinit all beckoned to him. It took every bit of self control he had to just leave her tucked in and move away. He took off his belt and scabbard, even his gamesonbut he left the plain white tunic underneath it on as well as his pants even though he never slept in so many clothes. Still dressed for the most part, he moved to go sit in a chair by the door, closing his eyes and trying to catch a little bit of sleep while he waited for the maybe-maybe-not-princess to arise and figure out what to do with her.
