Can't Take Me [[Thais]]

[Demetra]

The coast was quiet, not a sound except the waves breaking on the shore, and it was soothing. Demetra smiled slightly, sitting on the sand and allowing the water to lap her feet. Her long, raven locks flitted in the salty breeze, and she lay back on the sand, breathing evenly. She enjoyed the sea, she really did, she just never got to see it very often. The cool water felt amazing on her heated skin, causing her to want to swim, just get in the water and float.

She sat up, looking either way to make sure she was alone, then moved to her feet and undressed, slipping into the water and making a sound of satisfaction as the water lapped over her skin. She stepped into a drop off, where the water barely rose above her chest, and let her head dip under, wetting her hair.

[Queen Thais ♥]

Thais spent most of her visit here at the Gulf. Last night she was near here just wandering around. Her advisors told her not to.But why would Thais even care about that? She didn't follow rules. Even gods and titans didn't follow them, why should she?

The sea curled at Thais' feet as she stood on the white sand. Dressed in a light blue dress the queen of Cyprus looked as stunning as always. Her long wavy brown hair twirling at her shoulders as she dipped her hands in the water. Kneeling down to the water Thais didn't even care if her dress was wet as long as she could feel the softness of the sea. It was sharper than the cypriote one ofcourse. In her sea you could lie all day as if it was thin air. That's how beautiful Cyprus's sea was.

The sound of a body against the water caught Thais' attention. A girl, a spartian one, was bathing in the distance. Thais eye was never usually caught by women but she didn't look away from that figure. A girl that looked so young and innocent, such soft and perfect features yet a hint of something extravagant in her eyes. Thais didn't say a word, simply watched the figure in the distance.

[Demetra]

Demetra sank under the water once more, allowing the water to lap around her face and hair. She was calmed by it slightly, before she had to resurface to allow herself breath. She simply sat in the water, eyes closed, absorbing the smell of sea air and water. After a long period of time, she was not sure how long, she finally pulled opened her eyes and looked about her.

She looked slightly to her left, and was surprised to see a woman watching her. A soft meeping sound escaped her throat and she sank farther down into the water so it covered her more, and smiled sheepishly.

[Queen Thais ♥]

Thais chuckled as the girl hid herself under the water. She glanced down at her lap and sat in the water. He dressed was all soaked now but Thais couldn't care less. She didn't look back at the girl, her eyes now closed as she titled her head back away from the sun.

[Demetra]

After the young girl collected herself, she swam a little closer to the woman, making sure to keep her form submerged. When she got closer, she could tell the woman was attractive. Nay attractive, gorgeous. She smiled, a big, wide, embarrassed smile before bowing her head politely to the woman. "It's a nice day to be out." she said softly.

She kept her eyes on the woman's face, and those entracing eyes, and took a long, lingering moment to speak. "Forgive me if I bother you, I just need company. If you wish me to leave, I shall." She said softly, surprising herself. Since when did she give a damn? Where had her Spartan demenor gone?

[Queen Thais ♥]

Thais glanced up at the girl her greyish blue eyes inspecting the child. Not only was she beautiful, she was also polite.
''You don't bother me it's my pleasure to finally speak to another female here.'' she smiled gently.

''I'm Thais, Queen of Cyprus.''she added. The girl would propably be wonder who was her husband. To everyone's suprise Thais didn't have one. A propably wouldn't have one ever.

[Demetra]

''You don't bother me it's my pleasure to finally speak to another female here.''

The woman's gentle smile caused the younger girl to smile as well. She flashed the woman bright, white teeth for only a moment before she closed her lips, a smile still tugging at the edges of her lips. "I understand what you mean...." She said softly, before beginning to slightly open up to the woman, she couldn't help it. "I've been a slave for the past few months so it's a nice change to be talking to a woman that doesn't make a living on her back." She continued.

''I'm Thais, Queen of Cyprus.''

Demetra was surprised, she had heard of this woman, the queen without a king. She bowed her head once more. "I am Demetra, Priestess of Sparta." She said with a smile once more then settled more comfortably in the water.

[Queen Thais ♥]

Thais laughed gently at her words,''Oh yes I suppose I understand you there. Just the warriors I communicate with earn theirs by slicing throats.'' she said.
Thais rolled her long locks up in a bun. How many men loved that silky gloss of hair, ends curling up in gentle twirls. Thais watched the girl as she rolled up the bun keeping it in place with a twig. She chuckled as she watch the spartan's eyes.

[Demetra]

"Oh yes I suppose I understand you there. Just the warriors I communicate with earn theirs by slicing throats.''

The Spartan girl chuckled softly. That was pretty much the way it worked in her country as well, blood and gore were as usual as eating. She leaned her head back so her curls dipped into the water once more, then lifted her head to look at the queen once more.

Demetra watched as the woman curled her hair into a bun, refusing the urge to play with that long expanse of hair, or let out a soft exhale. She then looked about them, holding up one finger to indicate for the woman to hold her thought and swam back to where her clothing was, turning her back to the woman now in the distance and dressing quickly, then jogged back over. "I'm sorry about that, I wish not to be naked if my master comes looking for me." She said with a smile and sat beside Thais, allowing her legs to get wet as well, knowing the outfit would dry.

[Queen Thais ♥]

''Who is your master then?''asked Thais. Maybe he was up for selling this angel, she was ever so perfect. Thais wouldn't mind dragging Demetra along with her to Cyprus. She watched her dress and retaurn then let go of her hair waiting for the reply, wrapping her arms round her long legs.

[Demetra]

''Who is your master then?''

Demetra scoffed, rolling big, blue eyes before replying. "Xerxes the God King." The last words were sarcastic. The man was not a god, and barely enough to be called a man to begin with. She lay back on the sand, crossing her legs before her and sighing deeply.

"I'm the only virgin whore in his harem." She said softly, and paused, before rethinking that name. "I'm the only virgin whore I know of to begin with." She said offhandedly, and chuckled softly.

[Queen Thais ♥]

Both of Thais' eyebrows shot up at the name Xerxes. Sheheard of him; not like he was a very nice guy but Thais didn't think of him at a total bastard. She was suprised actually, why would he need a Spartian girl? Didn't Persia enough women? But actually that was a stupid question as in the world no women are more beautiful that greek women. Their bodies their hair, skin; it was all irresistable.

Thais touched the priestess' cheek,''Virgin...''Thais smiled at her and pulled her hand back,''I'll talk to that King, see if you're up for sale.''she smiled but added,''Though as soon as we are behind my border women are free and men are slaves.''she chuckled.
''It's up to you.''she shrugged with a smirk. She could atleast as him, maybe he'd agree.

[Demetra]

Demetra watched the woman's eyebrows shoot up as she mention his name, and she smirked. She assumed the two had met before, and that things had not gone so well.

''Virgin.. I'll talk to that King, see if you're up for sale. Though as soon as we are behind my border women are free and men are slaves. It's up to you.''

Demetra smiled. "With all due respect, my lady, I have no desire to go back with you to Cyprus. I just want to go back to Sparta."

[Queen Thais ♥]

''We can arrange that too. Actually I like it here too. Beautiful place. But I miss my horses, palaces.'' Thais sighed at the memory of her beautiful island. She missed it too.
''So how come you're the Persian king's slave girl anyway?''she asked changing the subject before feeling too homesick.

[Demetra]

''We can arrange that too. Actually I like it here too. Beautiful place. But I miss my horses, palaces.''

"It sounds nice to be a queen." She said with a smile and rolled onto her stomach, propping her head on her hands and watching the beautiful woman, a small smile still on her features.

''So how come you're the Persian king's slave girl anyway?''

"He saw me in the bazaar and found me interesting. I was captured by some Persian men on a trip to the coastline and sold for an exteme amount since Iw was untouched..."
