Catherine was on her balcony when he arrived.  He looked around at the candles she had lit. 

"You have made this evening more special with dancing light."  He took in her appearance than.  She was dressed in the sheerest of ivory silk.  The candlelight silhouetted her lovely body beneath her spaghetti strap gown. 

"Catherine you are so beautiful my love."  Going to her he held her in his arms.  Taking her lips in a passionate kiss, he began to gently lower the strap of her gown exposing the creamy smooth swell of her breast.  The cool night air hardened her nipple drawing his gaze.  He released her lips to take the tender bud between his lips.  She gasped from the feel of his warm breath upon the sensitive peak.  He gently caressed her soft back down to her waist, over her perfectly formed rear end.  His hand caressing her thigh raising her gown higher and higher pulling her close to his arousal.  He felt her desire ignite setting off a fire in his blood.  Letting out a growl he lifted her in his arms and carried her to the bedroom.

Laying her down he could not take his eyes off her.  One beautiful breast was bare to him.  Her gown was up.  One slender but muscular thigh was exposed.  Her body was calling out to him.  Quickly removing his clothes he joined her in the bed.  Gently rubbing her breast, so beautiful, so perfect."  "I love you."

She began to moan; his hand upon her breast intoxicating.  "Love me Vincent?"

Taking her lips to his own, he entered her velvety soft wetness in one smooth stroke.   The second he was inside her, her body reacted arching upward to met him, her orgasm immediately claiming her and him.  It was the first of many that night.  By dawn they were exhausted, completely drained and totally loved.  Later Vincent held her in his arms reading her a poem from the book he had brought with him before returning Below.

When he was dressed to go, he found it so hard to leave her. "Catherine I wish I could hold you in my arms forever, staying buried inside your beautiful body forver,  never leaving you."

"Vincent I wish that too."  "I will come Below tonight."  "We can spend my time there however you want us too."  "I don't want to be away from you either."  I want to stay the weekend in your bed if you want me too."

"Catherine I want that more than anything." "I will meet you at the threshold at 9:00."

"I will be there Vincent."

Seeing her lying in bed, her  naked beauty shimmering in the rays of dawn, feeling her desire for him, he needed her again.  Removing his clothes he made love to her one more time.  Giving her a kiss, until tonight my angel, and he left out the balcony doors.  Catherine lay in her bed for a while, glowing from their lovemaking.  I cannot wait to have you inside me again Vincent." "I love you so."  Smiling she covered herself and dreamed of tonight.

Vincent was in heaven when he returned Below.  He has never felt so loved nor has he been so loved in his entire life. " Catherine has done this to me."  "What a glorious feeling it is to be truly loved by a beautiful woman".  He went straight to him chamber before letting father know he had returned.  After the lovemaking her and Catherine shared last night and this morning he wanted to wash up before he saw him.  He laid his book on the bed and saw a note beside his pillow.

Dearest Vincent

If you get back early enough meet me at our secret cavern.

Love Lisa


Vincent laid the note down.  He was not going to join her there. There was no reason too.  Than he remembered the cavern she was referring too.  It had not been repaired for over twenty years.  They community had been too busy repairing the ones closer to them.  They were dangerous no one traveled that far Below anymore.  Lisa did not know this.  He placed the note inside the book.  In his haste to stop Lisa, he left his cloak and ran to the cavern.

Lisa was doing quite well finding their secret cavern.  The further she got to it the more she remembered.  As she neared it she heard water.  She did not remember it being there before.  Putting the thought aside she held up her torch and looked ahead.  Not paying attention to the ground, she fell into a dark hole filled with icy cold water.  She managed to climb out in the dark.  It was cold, very cold; She laid her hand against the wall using it as a guide and kept moving.  She heard a light rumble than falling debris before darkness consumed her.

Vincent heard the rumble and ran to the carvern as fast as he could.  He found Lisa lying on the ground wet and unconscious.  He was just about to kneel before her when the carvern began to crumble.  Pressing his back up against the falling beam, he called" Lisa she did not answer. "He called her again, Lisa please wake up."  Vincent's strength could no longer hold out, the beam came crashing down hitting him on the head.  The darkness and rubble engulfed him.

At the same time Above Catherine had just gotten dressed when she screamed "VINCENT."  He was in danger.  She felt it.  He needed her.  She did not know why she felt it or how but she did.  Grabbing her coat she headed Below.  She arrived at the iron gate hoping Vincent felt her coming and would be there.  She waited fifteen minutes he never came.  Feeling around she located the secret lever and entered the tunnel.  She ran to his chamber. She saw his cloak hanging on the coat rack and the book of poetry on the bed but he was not there.  He never leaves the sanctuary of his chamber without his cloak.  Taking it she ran to see father.

Entering his chamber breathless.

Catherine dear how are you?"  Seeing her face, "what is it?"

"Have you seen Vincent father?"

"No." "Not since he left last night to see you."

"Father he left my apartment over an hour ago to come home."   "I was to meet him here to spend the weekend."  "I was above I don't know why but I feel he is in danger."


"
Catherine in danger how?"

"Father I don't know, she began to cry, I don't know."

"Catherine calm down, I am sure he is OK."

"Lisa came home last night."  "May be he is with her let's go to the guest chamber." "If they are not there, we can try the falls and the crystal caverns."  "We will find him don't worry."  They checked both places.  They were not at either one.

" Father can we gather everyone in the grand hall."  "Maybe someone saw them."  "Knows where they are."

" All right Catherine I will send message over the pipes."

Below in the rubble Vincent began to awaken.  His head was throbbing.  His vision was blurry.  Once his eyes adjusted to the dark, he looked around and saw the rubble. It was a cave-in. He saw Lisa on the floor.  Gathering all his strength he removed the beam off his back and crawled to her.  She was out cold and shivering.  He rubbed her arms, legs, nothing worked.  He had to get her out of her wet clothes.  He removed his vest and shirt.  He forget his cloak.  Removing her clothes he wrapped his around her.  It was not working she needed more warmth.  He covered her body with his own giving her his body heat.
Within ten minutes she began to come around. 

"Oh Lisa Lisa I was so afraid for you." 

She noticed their state of undress.  "Vincent what happened?"  "How did I get here?"

"Lisa I don't know."  "I remember coming in here finding you unconscious before the cave in." "I tried to hold it up but my strength gave out."  "I was unconscious for awhile myself when that beam over there hit me in my head."  "But I cannot remember anything that happened before I found you."  "Oh Lisa I almost lost you taking her in his arms, rocking her."   Lisa knew something was wrong Vincent was too attentive the way he addressed her.  Her eyes had adjusted to the dark.  She could see his face when she asked him "where he had been before he came here?"

"
He had a puzzled look on his face before he replied, "Lisa I don't know, grabbing his head, I cannot remember."
