《Dark Flame》Chapter 12

Gently, he laid her down on top of the blanket. Then as he lay down beside her, he gazed into her worried eyes and said.

"Don't be afraid. I'm not going to hurt you."

Letting out a shaky breath, she nodded her head, and with anticipation, she waited to see what he was going to do with her.

Lightly, he ran his fingers down her delicate neck, and then covered one of her breasts with his hand, softly kneading the shapely firm mound.

"You are so beautiful Satele." He said in a hushed tone as his eyes roamed over the length of her body.

The touch of his hand brought a pleasant shiver down her spine. Gently he pinched the erect nipple, making her shudder with delight.

Then his hand slid down on her taut stomach and as he reached the juncture of her thighs for a second Satele held her breath knowing what was to come. However this time he didn't do what he did on the ship. With a mischievous smile, he looked into her eyes and said.

"I want to try something else. Don't move."

With wide eyes, she looked at him as she felt a gentle surge of electrical current flowing through her private parts. Instantly the hair on her body stood up as his hand hovered over her sex. This sensation was uniquely amazing making her forcefully clutch the soft fabric beneath her.

"Do you like this?" He asked looking at her gleeful face.

Nodding her head, she moaned.

"Yes…I do."

Then he moved his hand away from her sex and pushed himself up. Placing himself between her thighs, he lay flat on his stomach and started kissing on the soft part of her inner thigh, causing Satele to squirm beneath his touch. Then his mouth slowly traveled up to her sex.

The sensation she felt from his tongue was an extraordinary feeling, much better than what she thought it would be.

While his tongue kept her aroused, Malgus smiled on the inside.

She tasted perfect like the little Jedi she is, he thought with a grin. My little Jedi.

After a few minutes of torturous teasing, it felt like her body was on pure fire. As her breathing became shallower and faster, she started to feel the great build-up within her core. This amazing sensation swept through her like wildfire as her climax was getting near.

Then as she was about to reach her peak, he sucked the swollen bud into his mouth and twirled his tongue around it making her scream with pleasure.

The great satisfaction that she experienced was indescribable. Satele had never thought that his mouth could feel so amazing.

However, he didn't stop and kept on going until her sex became so sensitive she started begging him to stop.

"Please…." She panted. "Stop…. it's…so …sensitive."

Looking up, he smiled and then gently, he blew on her sensitive parts making her shiver with more pleasure.

"I like to see you squirm." He said with a wicked grin.

Then she felt his finger inside her touching the walls of her sex. As he started to move his finger in and out, Satele felt lost within the sensations.

This was something different, something she had never experienced before. Propping herself up on her elbows, she wanted to see what he was doing. The view was tremendously arousing, and suddenly she wanted to touch him.

Sitting up, she pulled him up and pressed her lips to his. Then her hands swiftly ran over his muscular body reaching his erect manhood. Wrapping her fingers around him she started to move her hand up and down, just like she did in the water, making Malgus moan with pleasure.

It was greatly satisfying to watch his ecstatic expression as she picked up her pace.

Looking down on her hand, she bit her lower lip thinking about doing something that she would have never considered doing before.

The touch of her hand felt extremely good and as he opened his eyes, he noticed a glint of mischief in her eyes. Then before he could have muttered a single word, she leaned forward and wrapped her mouth around him. The sensation that followed made him almost lose control. Looking at the back of her head, he suddenly let out a nervous laugh watching her pleasing him. This greatly surprised him and after a minute of amazing pleasure, he reluctantly stopped her.

"Satele." He panted. "If you don't stop, I won't be able to perform tonight."

"You don't like it?" She asked confused.

"Oh no." He muttered. "I like it very much." Too much, he thought disheartened.

"Come here." He said as he sat down and pulled her closer.

Holding onto her hips, he placed her above his hips and slowly he lowered her onto him.

Satele felt a slightly uncomfortable pressure, making her flinch at the painful and tense sensation.

"Relax." He said as his mouth found her nipple and started to play with it. "Let me guide you." He said looking into her frightened eyes.

"Oh oh… ohhh." She whimpered feeling his length slowly filling her up.

While holding onto his shoulders, he grabbed hold of her hips, and slowly he started to move watching her face.

Soon the uncomfortable pressure turned into a more pleasant one making her pant and moan loudly as he continued with his movements.

Then her mouth came down on his and within their passionate kiss, she relaxed herself enjoying him fully.

She felt so amazing that Malgus had a hard time controlling himself.

Tightly holding onto her hips, his mouth left hers and buried his face into her chest, licking and gently biting her nipples. As her breathing quickened again, and her moans grew louder, he knew she was enjoying it, just as he hoped for.

Pressing her body down, and moving her hips in unison with his, she wanted to feel all of him inside her. This feeling was pure joy and Satele didn't want this to end.

When he reached his climax, a deep growl left his mouth as the amazingly blissful sensation traveled through his body making him shiver.

"Oh, Satele." He moaned into her mouth.

Cupping his face into her hands, she looked into his eyes and with a sly smile, she asked.

"Yes, Veradun?"

Shaking his head, he pulled one of his eyebrows up and with a sly grin he said.

"You are bad."

"I'm glad you approve." She teasingly said.

Embracing her, he buried his face into her neck and as he planted a soft kiss on her skin, he said.

"You make me happy. You know that, right?"

"Of course." She said smiling. Then she placed her fingers on the back of his neck and gently rubbed his skin, massaging him.

Lifting her up, he put her down on the blanket. Then he lay down beside her and laced his fingers with hers. Looking toward the starry night sky, he said.

"Are you glad that we met?"

Following his gaze, she also looked toward the sky and said.

"Yes." Then she asked. "Why are you asking that?"

"Just making sure." He said with a grin.

Snuggling up against his body, she let out a small chuckle and said.

"Can you imagine if Vowrawn saw us now?"

"Vowrawn?" He asked, and then with a smile, he added. "I think he would have a fit."

Then she pointed toward a brightly shining star and asked.

"What planet do you think that is?"

Looking at the star, he said.

"I have no idea."

"Let's name it then." She said turning to him.

"What's on your mind?" He asked gazing into her eyes.

"Let's call it Vora." She said.

"Why Vora?" He inquired.

Placing her hand on his chest, she twirled her finger on top of a scar, and then she said.

"I always liked that name. If we have a daughter I would like to name her Vora."

"What if it's a boy?" He asked.

"I don't' know." She replied. " I never thought about that."

"I like Drade." Malgus said thinking about the possibility of having a child. For some reason now he couldn't wait to hold his child in his hand and teach him or her the ways of the Force.

While they enjoyed each other for the rest of the night, from behind the boulders a pair of deep brown eyes watched them curiously.

The sun's bright yellow rays woke Malgus up in the following morning. Cracking one eye open, he looked toward the bright horizon, and then his eyes landed on Satele standing waist-deep in the water.

Her back was to him as she washed her legs and stomach.

Sitting up, he watched her for a while and then getting up, he approached her.

She heard him wading through the water, and then felt his hands on her stomach caressing her skin. Then as his hands slid up toward her breasts, his mouth came down on her right shoulder gently nibbling on it. His touch felt amazingly good and letting out a small moan, she allowed him to explore her body again.

After they got back to the camp, Satele went home to pack her things and move the little belongings she had to Malgus's place. Nico was leaving soon and the home was all theirs now.

Then she went to see Lana and Lyrna. As soon as she walked into the kitchen, a wide smile appeared on Lana's face. Rushing to Satele and in a hurry, she said.

"Tell me everything."

"Lana." Lyrna called to her. "Leave her alone."

"I'll tell you everything later when we are alone." Satele said with a beaming smile.

"You look happy." Lyrna said as she approached Satele. "I can tell your night went well."

Blushing, Satele looked from Lyrna to Lana, and then she said.

"Indeed, it went very well."

"I'm happy for you." Lyrna said hugging Satele. Letting her go, she turned to Lana and said.

"Now it's your turn, my friend."

"I'm very picky." Lana said with a sly grin. "And hard to please."

"I see." Lyrna said with a smile. Then she added. "One day you'll meet someone who would please you, you'll see."

"Exactly." Lana chimed. "We'll see."

That evening, Nico was ready to leave. As they walked him back to his ship, turning to Satele and Malgus, he said.

"Please don't cry for me, I'll be seeing you guys soon enough."

Suppressing a smile, Satele looked at him, and then after giving him a hug, she said.

"I will miss you."

Then he shook hands with Malgus and said.

"Take care."

Nodding, Malgus let go of his hand and then watched Lana walking up to Nico. As she hugged him, she whispered something into his ear which Malgus couldn't hear.

That night after their lovemaking, Malgus swiftly fell asleep, while Satele stared at the ceiling trying to go to sleep. Then her attention turned to Malgus and with a smile, she watched him as he slept. While his head nestled in the crook of her neck, one of his muscular arms enfolded her waist. His warm breath left a tingly sensation on her bare skin as he steadily breathed in and out.

Closing her eyes, she relaxed her body and slowly, she fell asleep.

In her dream, she was back on Dromund Kaas.

As she walked into the Dark council's palace she noticed it was empty except for one person who stood in a long dark robe in front of the council's table. His back was to her, but as she got closer, he slowly turned around.

Instantly, Satele recognized the mask the man wore. It was the same mask that was kept within the box. Stopping, she looked at him. Then her strong voice echoed through the tall chamber.

"What is it that you want to show me? Tell me please."

Then an eerie silence enveloped the room. The only thing Satele heard was the beating of her heart accompanied by her shallow breathing.

When he didn't answer, she approached him. She was certain he was not there to hurt her.

As she got closer, she noticed there was nobody beneath the robe. She only saw emptiness and darkness beckoning her. Ignoring the empty robe, she reached out, and placed her hand on the mask, slowly removing it.

To her relief, there was no face beneath the mask, but only a faint purple glow that lingered under the hood. Looking down, she noticed the holocron medallion around her neck started to glow, reflecting its bright purple color of the worn mask. Lifting it up, she curiously looked at it. As she looked closer, she noticed there was something written on the inside. However, the letters were too small to read and after a second or two she gave up on trying to decipher the words.

Then she looked at the mask again and turning it around, she slowly lifted it up and placed it on her face.

Instantly, the whole room turned crimson and she felt herself falling.

With a loud thud, she landed on the floor.

"Satele." Malgus's worried voice cut through her foggy mind.

Then she felt his hand lifting her up.

"You rolled off the bed." He said looking at her pale face. "Are you alright?"

"The mask…I have to…get the mask." She muttered.

"What did you dream?" He asked searching her face. Somehow her dreams always left him worried. Although he didn't always believe in them, the one she told him on Korriban still haunted his thoughts.

After hearing about her dream, for a few seconds, Malgus stayed quiet, and then he said.

"I don't like this at all."

"I know you don't, but I need to know." Satele insisted. "He is trying to show me something."

"Are you going to ask her to give it to you?" He asked.

Thinking about telling this to her somehow gave Satele an uneasy feeling. She rather not wanted to tell her about the dream or ask her to give her the mask. She didn't think Lord Darkspanner was going to hand the precious mask over.

"No. I don't think it would be a good idea." Satele replied.

Then Malgus asked.

"You said the mask was locked inside a box?"

"Yes." Satele replied. "It's locked and the box is part of the altar. We can't just take it."

"And Lord Darkspanner has the key, right?" He asked looking at her.

"Yes." She replied.

"I know a perfect person who can help us." Malgus said, with a sly grin.

"You want me to steal the key?" Lyrna asked the next day as she stood in the middle of Malgus and Satele's home.

"Yes." Malgus replied gazing into her eyes.

"If she catches me, my husband and I would be punished and exiled from this place." She said, looking at them both.

"Can you help us or not?" Malgus asked intently looking at her.

With a sly grin, she said. "Let's see what I can do."

A few hours later she was back with the key.

"How did you do that?" Satele asked astounded.

Winking at her, she said. "I managed to run into her."

"Does your husband know about this?" Malgus asked looking at her.

"Of course not." She replied. "He wouldn't approve of my little shenanigans."

Taking the key from Lyrna, Satele put it in her pocket, and then she said.

"Tonight after the worship when everyone leaves, I'll take it."

"Just be careful." Lyrna said. Then she walked out leaving the home.

"I'm going with you." Malgus insisted. "If anything happens…

"Nothing will happen." She swiftly cut in. "I can do this."

Her stubborn attitude did not surprise him at all. However, he didn't want to start an argument with her. He planned to be close by, and if anything happened, he would be ready.

During worship, Malgus scanned the temple, watching everyone. Then his eyes landed on the altar where the box was kept. Then his attention turned to Lord Darkspanner and the Chagrian who stood beside her. Behind the Chagrian stood Satele. As his eyes met hers, she slightly nodded her head and then looked away from his penetrating gaze.

When her eyes found Lyrna's and Lord Scourge's she slightly nodded her head and then turned her attention back to Lord Darkspanner. Satele wondered if he was aware of their little scheming.

As the ceremony ended, everyone started to walk out leaving Satele and Lord Darkspanner alone in the temple.

"What a beautiful worship it was." Satele said with a smile. Then she added. "If you want to I can lock up tonight."

"Would you do that?" She asked, searching Satele's face.

"Yes." She replied. "I don't mind."

"Thank you, Satele." Lord Darkspanner said with a smile placing her hand on Satele's forearm. "You are truly a blessing around here."

"You are too kind." Satele coyly replied.

After Lord Darkspanner left and making sure her chores were done, she walked up to the altar and took out the key from her pocket. As she opened the box, for a few seconds Satele hesitated. She had never stolen anything in her life and this felt extremely uncomfortable and wrong. However, she needed to know what the mask wanted to tell her. She was certain her ancestor contacted her for a reason, and Satele didn't want to let him down.

Placing the mask inside her vest, she swiftly locked the box, and then she left the temple to head home. As she walked out of the cave, Malgus's strong voice stopped her in her tracks.

"Do you have it?"

Yes." She replied watching him heading her way.

When they got home, she pulled the mask out of her vest and placed it on the table.

With a frown, Malgus looked at the mask and then he said.

"Go ahead. Let me see what this useless thing can show you."

Lifting up the mask, Satele placed it on her face and waited for something to happen. However, to her great disappointment, she didn't feel anything unusual. She thought that by putting it on, she would feel or see something important that could lead her to her ancestor.

Taking the mask off, she let out a frustrated sigh and as she looked at Malgus, she said.

"I didn't see anything just the color red."

"Red?" Malgus asked.

"Yes." She replied. "Looking through the mask everything looks annoyingly red."

Taking the mask from her, Malgus lifted it up to his face. As he looked through the mask, with a distorted voice, he said to Satele.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Then he added. "I don't see red."

Frowning, she took the mask away from him and put it back onto her face. As she threw her arms up into the air, she said.

"How can you not see it? Everything looks red, just like Lord Scourge."She added with a grin.

As she said his name, suddenly something clicked inside her. Taking the mask off, she looked at Malgus and with amazement, she said.

"Red….just like Lord Scourge."

"What are you trying to say?" Malgus asked looking at her puzzled expression.

Looking at the mask, she let out a shaky breath, and then she mumbled.

"The mask….it wanted to show me." Then she quickly shoved the mask beneath her vest and ran out of the house.

When Malgus caught up with her, she was already at Lyrna's house knocking on the door.

Opening the door, with a troubled expression, Lyrna looked at them, and then she swiftly gestured for them to step inside.

"I'm glad to see you Satele." Lord Scourge said as he sat at the table looking at Satele and then Malgus.

"You knew I was coming?" She asked puzzled.

"I didn't know when, but I knew eventually you would come to me." He said as he motioned for them to take a seat.

Not wanting to sit down, she stood at the table and placed the mask on it. Then her eyes found his and she asked.

"Why did the mask show me to come to you?"

"Your ancestor Revan, proudly wore this mask during his years as a Sith. As I have mentioned to you before, I'd known him personally. Not when he wore the mask, but as a Jedi trying to defeat the Emperor."

Taking a deep breath, and under their scrutinizing stare, he continued.

"I lost faith in the Empire long before your time. I had been manipulated, lied to, betrayed, and nearly assassinated by my own kind." Saying that his eyes met Malgus's. Then he looked at Satele as he resumed.

"I'm not going to lie to you. What I did to Revan and to the Exile it still haunts me." Saying that he looked at Malgus again, whose piercing gaze was on the Pureblood Sith's. "I betrayed them so I can live and see the day of the Emperor's doom. I had a vision that showed me it was not Revan but another Jedi who is going to stop the Emperor from annihilating the galaxy."

"You betrayed them?" She asked perplexed.

"Yes, Satele. I did and I am truly sorry for what I have done. Please forgive me."

There was true regret in his eyes. For a second Satele didn't know what to say. Although this happened a long time ago, still what he had done was troubling. However, the cause behind his cruel actions was reasonable enough for her to forgive him. And if his vision was correct and this Jedi would bring down the Emperor, saving everyone, and possibly freeing her ancestor, Satele was looking forward to aiding this person if need be.

"I forgive you." She said gazing into his eyes.

Hearing her words, Malgus swallowed hard and instant jealousy engulfed him. Then he heard Scourge again.

"Thank you, Satele."

"Who is this Jedi you are talking about?" She inquired.

Somehow Malgus sensed that his answer would not be for his liking.

"If I had told you a few days ago that you were destined to kill the Emperor, would you have believed me?" Lord Scourge asked, intensely gazing into Satele's eyes.

Shaking her head, she said. "I would have said you had lost your mind."

"That is why I didn't want to approach you. I was waiting for you to come to me." Lord Scourge said.

"What if I had not come here?" Satele asked. "What if the mask hadn't shown me to come to you?

"There are no if's or but's, only the power of the Force." He said looking at her puzzled expression. "I have lived long and I have seen many things in my lifetime. However, I have never seen anything happen by pure chance. Everything happens for a reason. We were destined to meet and that is what I call the true power of the Force."

Stepping forward, and with a look that could have killed, Malgus asked with anger and disbelief.

"You want to send my wife to kill the Emperor because of a vision? And why would you do that?"

Looking at Malgus, he said.

"The Emperor is a great threat to all of us. I've seen what he had done on Nathema. He is planning to do that on a galactic scale. If we don't kill him, we'll all be dead soon."

Calmly, he added.

"Yes. She is destined to kill him."

An instant rage swept through Malgus. Without thinking it through, he lashed out at the Pureblood Sith with all his might. Instantly, Scourge's ignited weapon deflected the fury of Malgus's unleashed Force lightning. As he sprung up, he kicked the table toward Malgus hitting him with full force. Malgus mind went dark, like an endless void. Igniting his weapon, he attacked Scourge.

Satele couldn't believe her eyes. Dumbstruck, she stood beside Lyrna, who for some reason looked calm and composed. As she was about to interfere with the fight, Lyrna grabbed hold of her arm and said.

"Don't."

As the blades slashed at each other, the room instantly turned into a war zone. Malgus deftly spun around and with a powerful roundhouse kick, he sent the Pureblood Sith flying against the wall. In a matter of seconds, Scourge picked himself up and sent a strong electrical current toward Malgus. Not having enough time to deflect the attack, Malgus felt the fury of Scourge in the middle of his chest, immobilizing him for a few seconds, rendering him to his knees.

"Enough!" Satele screamed at the men. "Stop this madness NOW!"

Standing up, with an intense stare, Malgus looked at Satele, then he turned around and kicked the turned over table against the wall.

Stepping in between the two men, Satele looked at Scourge and then Malgus.

"What is wrong with you?!" She yelled! "You are acting like children!"

Breathing heavily, Scourge looked at Satele and said, as he glanced toward Malgus.

"It is not me you need to control."

Turning to Malgus, Satele accusingly asked.

"Why did you do that?"

"Because I don't want to LOSE YOU!" He roared with an expression that was truly frightening to watch. The madness in his eyes scared Satele leaving her speechless.

Pointing his finger toward Scourge, he growled. "You are sending her to her death, you know that right?" With an angry tone, he yelled. "No one can defeat the Emperor! NO ONE!"

"He is not invincible." Lord Scourge said standing his ground.

"Even if she was destined as you have seen in your vision, she is far from ready to do something like that!" Malgus yelled at him. "How dare you do this to US!" Again the madness in his eyes surprised Satele. She hadn't seen him like this since his fight with the two council members on Dromund Kaas.

"She is more capable than you think." Lord Scourge said walking closer to Malgus. "You need to trust me and trust her."

"I would never trust you." Malgus spat at him with anger.

"Then don't." He said looking at Malgus. "But you need to trust her and respect her decision." Scourge sensed that he might give him more trouble, but he had never thought he would see Malgus this passionate about her. However, he knew what love could do to a man.

Searching Satele's eyes, Malgus asked.

"Please tell me that you are not considering this futile plan?"

Gazing into his eyes, Satele said.

"There is a reason I came here."

"Satele." He begged. "Don't do this."

Stepping closer to him, and as she caressed his face, in a low voice, she said.

"I need you by my side."

Holding onto her hand, he gazed into her pleading eyes and then in defeat, he said.

"I will always be there for you. Never doubt that….Satele Shan."

Then he embraced her and buried his face into her hair.

The following night, they met on the beach where a spaceship was waiting for them. As they walked toward the ship Satele turned to Lana and said.

"You don't have to come with us, Lana."

"So I can miss out on this opportunity?" She asked with a grin. "Never, my friend."

After everyone took their seat, the Chiss pilot lifted up the ship leaving Lehon behind.

Lord Darkspanner watched as the ship disappeared amongst the stars. Then she turned around and headed toward the temple.

Pulling out the spare key from her pocket, she opened the box to see that the mask was gone. With a sly smile, she locked the box and then walked behind the altar and approached the hidden door.

Once inside, she locked the door and walked up to the table.

Turning on the hologram projector she patiently waited until the tall Sith's glowing image appeared in front of her.

"My Lord." She said bowing her head. "They are on their way."

"Are you certain?" The Sith asked.

"Yes. They took the mask and now they are heading toward his location." She said looking at the glowing image.

"As we have discussed." The Sith said. "You'll get his body back and I'll get my revenge."

"Yes my Lord." She replied with excitement. "I'm truly grateful for your help."

"Your greed is my pleasure." The Sith said and then his image disappeared.

With an excited expression, Lord Darkspanner turned around and leaned against the table. To lose his mask was not what she had expected to happen. However, what she was about to receive in exchange for a mask would be an unparalleled treasure that would change everything.
