It is about halfway through the third hour of the fifteenth day of Lucette's attempt to reorganize her grandfather's library. The project is moving at an acceptable pace overall, though she's starting to question the wisdom of having scheduled the whole thing down to the hour during day three (hour four).
Yeah, Lucette has complicated feelings about that right now.
Still, she gets back into bed with Annie.
Annie adores her with unerring confidence and magical intensity. Lucette is the most important person in the world and should always have everything she needs especially if she needs Annie. Annie is running almost all of her thoughts now through a lens of how they'd affect Lucette - if something would be interesting or useful to her, or spare her some bother, or of course most importantly keep her safe and happy, that's the overriding consideration. Also she's so beautiful, Annie can't see her but she knows it, she's so beautiful and Annie's not sure if she's exactly attracted back or just has some weird foreign emotional situation regarding intimacy or what but Annie will take absolutely anything Lucette wants to give her, all the kisses in the world -
"...oh."
"The marriage worked...." What if Lucette were kissing Annie right this second.
"It worked it worked it worked! - I still don't feel anything, which might just be because I don't have a demon but maybe whatever artifact made it so I -" Out of the way, artifact.
Lucette is head over heels in love with her Annie, and somehow has yet to realize this. Annie is the best person, the most important person, and her favorite person. Lucette's feelings don't quite match Annie's, but they're still really quite a lot considering the lack of magical mind control involved. Annie is strange and wonderful, and sometimes Lucette is scared or guilty about how much she enjoys Annie's love, but really she's exhilarated by it. Her feelings are also decidedly non-platonic in nature - hardly anything has ever turned her on as much as how Annie smiles or how Annie moves or how Annie wants her.
Then Lucette would kiss her even more back, somehow! It's not easy to figure out how but Lucette is determined.
Is Annie allowed to try to return any of the favors she's accumulated from Lucette, yet, or no?
Well, it is their wedding night... though Lucette might still prefer things to escalate somewhat slowly.
She knows and it's wonderful, and this time Annie can be awake to hear Lucette say her name.
After the first time, Lucette has more specific opinions about what sort of things she wants (Lucette should be kissing her at the same time, should focus less on pushing inside her, and should be positioned so Lucette can't see what's going on) and then Annie can hear it another four times if she'd like.
Lucette would like to show Annie how much she appreciates her! With her mouth and then with her hands.
