“That was the most special and beautiful
night I have ever had,” Ulysses said and Xena grinned as she
nodded. “I completely gave you my heart that night,”
she said as Ulysses leaned in. “And I thank you and the gods
for that everyday. The first day I saw you I gave you my heart, the
first time we kissed I gave you my soul and on that night I gave
myself to you in a way that I had never given it to anyone before.
I surrendered myself completely and utterly to you and I have not
regretted it, in fact that is the best decision I will have ever
made in my life.” Ulysses said and Xena just looked into his
eyes as she caressed his face, “I don’t know why the
gods decided to bless us with the love that we have but I’m
glad that they did,” Xena said and Ulysses grinned.

 

 

“The love that we have, that we share is
greater than the gods, this goes beyond them, it’s all about
us, we complete each other.” Ulysses said as he ran his
fingers over the half circle on Xena’s necklace before he
leaned in and kissed her softly but passionately. “We need to
get dressed,” Xena said against Ulysses’ lips and he
nodded but kissed her again. They stood there for a while kissing
and then they finally decided to get cleaned up and dressed then
headed up stairs. “So you guys decided to get up,”
Cyrene said and Xena grinned at her mother, “well you did
tell Lyceus to come and get us didn’t you?” Xena asked
grinning as Ulysses wrapped his arms around her placing a kiss on
her cheek and Marguerite watched her son seeing how happy he was.
“Yea, but that didn’t mean you were going to come
though,” Cyrene said.

 

 

“True, your daughter is a sweet but delicious
temptation,” Ulysses said and Xena opened her mouth in
surprise as she grinned then elbowed Ulysses while everyone else in
the kitchen chuckled. “I can’t believe you just said
that,” Xena said as she turned around and hit Ulysses on his
arm and she did it again but on the third time he started blocking
her hits. “Hey I was only speaking the truth,” Ulysses
said with laughter in his voice which made Xena smile and try
harder. Ulysses caught Xena’s hands then pulled her to him
smiling in triumph and she smiled at him because she let him win
and leaned in as he leaned down slightly so that they were sharing
a soft kiss. Xena’s mother and Ulysses’ mother both
smiled at their children as they stood there kissing. Toris walked
into the kitchen followed by Julian and Lyceus, “oh for the
love of the gods didn’t you guys do enough last night,”
Toris said which made them end the kiss.
