Modern Mage – Chapter 9

I know I left you all with a cliffhanger at the end of the last chapter and I hope that this chapter earns your forgiveness for that. I chose to end the chapter there as I hadn’t fully formed the idea of where it was going to go from there. This chapter flowed more easily to me once i took the time away from the computer to think the story through. Please leave you feedback comments as well as ratings once you finish reading so i know what’s going right and what isn’t. I may not always agree with what people say, I always take the time to consider and I check the previous chapters for added feedback. If your just coming into the story I recommend reading all the previous chapters to understand how things got to this point. Thank you all for reading, and thank you to those who have stayed with me this far and left feedback along the way.





The tension in me built in the eternity I felt passing. This eternity wasn’t the result of Magick but the natural effect anticipation of an answer to a question that could fulfill dreams or crush lives. Sindee’s eyes were a deep grey like a storm on the horizon; silver flecks, as if lightning, shining in them; tears showing in them giving truth to the tempest they promised in their beauty as I waited for her to speak the words I needed to hear. Her pale porcelain skin glowed under the moonlight and stars as they shone down upon us, offset by the deep blue dress flowing like water along her skin. This moment felt as it would never end, me never knowing her answer. The moment was forever etched into my memory. Just as time felt as it would never move forward again, Sindee spoke.

The tears in her eyes started to flow down her cheeks as her smile bloomed, “Yes Andree, Yes I’ll marry you.” She pulled me to my feet and wrapped her arms around my body as incapable of speech as I was at that moment in time. My heart leapt to soaring heights of joy in hearing her answer, my throat tight. I leaned down as Sindee rose up to her toes, our lips meeting halfway. We kissed, and held each other, hands sliding along each other. We broke the kiss to breath as our lungs burned for lack of oxygen, despite the desperate need for air it felt as though only a second had passed.

I moved a half step back, giving us just enough space for me to take the ring out of the box. It was platinum band with a single flawless diamond. The design was classy and elegant, fitting for Sindee’s natural beauty and grace. I had picked it out some short time back and purchased that morning while we were shopping. Taking the ring from the box I slid it along her finger, my hands shaking with nerves and excitement as I did so. We stood out there on the terrace, just holding each other in our arms. Even with my arms around her and the ring upon her hand it still didn’t feel real to me. If I was dreaming I didn’t want it to end.

After some time just relaxing contentedly in the arms of the other we walked to our room, neither of us letting the other go. I picked Sindee up and carried her into the room as she squealed with laughter. She was so petite it was easy to hold her and I loved the way she felt in my arms. I set her down once we were across the room. She turned her back to me and moved her hair to the side exposing the zipper of her dress so that I could open it for her. I lowered it slowly as to tease us both with anticipation. I kissed the back of her neck, smelling her intoxicatingly natural scent as I lowered the zipper all the way to the bottom. I slid my hands up her back along her soft skin onto each shoulder. I slipped the dress off her shoulders holding the material as my hands ran down her arms. I continued to lower the dress until she could step out of it as the silk pooled around her. I was torturing myself with need and anticipation, but still took my time to step to the closet and hang the dress. When I turned to face her, Sindee was standing before me in her stockings, 6 inch heels and nothing else. My pulse quickened and the rest of the blood flowed away from my brain as I was consumed with need for this seductive goddess before me. I was stunned, unable to move and she walked towards and around me.

She reached up from behind me, into the collar of jacket. She ran her hands around the neckline, pulling the jacket open and sliding it off of my shoulders and me. As she hung the jacket over a chair I reached out to pull her towards me. She slipped out of my grab and stepped in front of me. She reached up to unbutton my shirt, taking as much time with them as I did with her zipper. I reach out to slide my hands up along her sides. She pushed my hands back to my sides giving me her wicked smile, telling me it was her turn to torture me as I did her. It was unbearable standing there not touching her when we were that close together, but I resisted the temptation. Sindee ran her hands along my skin as I did her, as she removed my tie and shirt. She slid her hands down my chest, undoing my best as she reached my waist. I slipped my shoes off as she opened my slacks and pushed them and my underwear off of me. As they dropped to the floor I placed my hands on her hips and guided her back toward the bed.

As we reached the bed, Sindee lay back stretching her form out like a satisfied cat. I kissed her neck and worked my way down her body until I took her right nipple in my mouth. I sucked on her nipple sliding my tongue in circles around it. My hands continued to move along her skin until my left hand reached her unoccupied breast and pinched her nipple causing her back to arch. I moved my mouth away from her right nipple and blew a cool breath across it. The nipple hardened as goose bumps rose upon the flesh surrounding it. I moved to take her left nipple into my mouth, using my tongue to lick around it. I flicked the nipple before moving my mouth away to blow another cool breath across it as well. I slid down her body to kneel on the floor between her extended legs and she spread them for me.

I slid my tongue along the length of her, tasting he wonderful flavor.
