Please, there's not enough on the interwebs! I'll take anything you can come up with.

First time here, but want to give it a try. Do you have any preferences? Heavy smut or just innocent love? Location their village or Davenport? Or somewhere else? I am up for anything, just want to give you what you want :p

Smut is always appreciated but I'll take something chaste as well. Just so you know, I'm a real sucker for romance.
As for the location, idk, I don't have a particular scenario in mind so I'll leave it to you.

Romance it will have then, lots and lots of it :), will probably get posted before the world ends ;)

Just in case, right?
Thanks! :D

Sorry for not posting this earlier, but it developed a life of it's own and grew and grew and grew lol. Had a problem with the fact that all the dialog between the lovers was in italic on my pc, representing Mohawk language, but when I posted it, it didn't show :(, sorry, but you'll just have to keep in mind that they don't talk English when alone :) English ain't my first language, this has not been beta'd and I am not infallible, so there may be some mistakes that I have not seen... Hope you like it, second and third part are in writing... =================================================================== Connor's eyes were dropping. He was feeling so exhausted, that he was glad his horse would know the way back from Prudence and Warren's farm. Achilles and his bizarre wishes, sometimes the man really managed to piss him off. Not enough that he had nearly not had any decent sleep for weeks, no, the second he gets home and wants nothing more than a bath, a meal and his bed the man comes up with the most exquisite demands. Chicken... The old man had been missing chicken for his recipe... Frowning and positively beaming with a fed-upness he seldom felt, he rode back, fighting sleep and lost in thoughts. That was until he heard some rustling in the bushes. He knew that in this parts animals were rare, and it sounded more like a bear than a rabbit anyways. And those definitely didn't live around here. His exhaustion was forgotten, his body had gotten so used to it to the point where it managed to conjure the last energy that was left and he jumped of his horse and quickly made his way up into the trees. His sight helped him quickly locate the source of the noise and once he was above the bush, he jumped and tackled the person. Only to have his lover squeak like a little girl when his body hit him and crashed on top of his back. “Kané... What are you doing here?” Kanen'tó:kon was used to his lover not being the most expressive when it came to emotions, hell, he could be happy when he didn't flinch out of a hug most of the time, but Kanen'tó:kon had missed him so badly that he couldn't spend time talking or staying on the floor in front of him like a fool. He jumped up and walked up to the Assassin, grabbed his face tenderly in his hands and locked their lips after whispering“I missed you” Connor needed a moment but then relaxed into the embrace, his arms moving around his friend and his face nestling his neck“I missed you too”. A split second of vulnerability... The kind only a few very selected people were allowing him to feel, or were allowed to witness. And here on his turf, his grounds, his lands, well Achilles and his, he felt a bit safer than elsewhere. And he had to admit to himself that he had often thought of Kanen'tó:kon, and had missed him awfully. But he had been too busy to travel to his village but apparently he wasn't the only one. With Kanen'tó:kon, he relived happy childhood moments... Splashing around in a river, climbing trees and racing through them, catching their dinner and then relaxing around a fire while eating and laughing. It was those simple and quiet moments that he cherished the most and that happened way too rarely. Kanen'tó:kon played with the ends of his hair, gently tugging when he saw his friend was lost in thoughts“You probably didn't even think of me with all those important missions you have” “That is not true”, checking his most trusted friend and lover, he was glad he hadn't hurt him with his drop“Is there something amiss in the village? Do you need something?” “You...” “Me?” “Ratohnhake:ton ... Do I always need a reason to come to you?” “No, of course not, but...” Kanen'tó:kon put a finger on his lips “Sshh... What were you up to?” “Achilles needed chicken” Kanen'tó:kon gazed at him then puffed, laughing hearty and playfully pushing him“Really? Life-saving mission that is...” then grabbed his hand and pulled him back to the path where the horse was waiting “Let's get the chicken to Achilles then, before he starves, the man looked like dropping any moment” “You have been to the manor?” “Yes, he told me you were on your way back and I wanted to see if I could sneak up on you...”, he grinned “But no, you had to destroy my plans”. Connor shook his head “That was a very dangerous thing to do Kané” “I knew you would not hurt me...” “It was reckless, I could have hurt you...” “I am not easily breakable” They walked the rest of the way in silence, Connor's horse following them, thumbs caressing the other's hand and glances being exchanged. Kanen'tó:kon took in the changes in his lover. He looked like hell. Dark circles framed his eyes and he looked exhausted. After a while he leaned over and gave him a playful peck on the cheek “Are you alright?” “Yes... I came back from New York today and haven't had time to rest or bath yet” “You will rest tonight...” Connor smiled “Yes, I will...” Achilles already awaited them “Ah, you have found him...” “Yes, he jumped me” Connor shook his head, still a bit annoyed that Kanen'tó:kon would risk his life like that, sneaking up on an Assassin was a real dumb thing to do “It was your fault, you should know better than trying to sneak up on me... I could have hurt you...” “But you didn't” “No, but I could have...” “Yes, but you did not” “You do not understand me Kanen'tó:kon...”, he switched to Mohawk “I do not wish to see you hurt” “And you didn't hurt me... I agree that you spooked me, but that is all” Achilles, who had followed their little exchange with obvious amusement, pushed them towards the kitchen with his wooden walking stick “Well boys, how about you help an old man a bit” “Of course...” They passed a nice moment together during dinner before Achilles excused himself to leave them to themselves. Kanen'tó:kon helped Connor prepare a bath and then helped him undress, which considering the layers the man always wore was no small undertaking. Once he was naked, Kanen'tó:kon let his hands roam his body, taking in the magnificent sight in front of him. He felt some parts of his body quickly awakening, but he knew that Connor needed rest and a good night of sleep right now, not an insatiable lover who would only add to his exhaustion. They would have time for that tomorrow. Connor noticed his gaze and blushed a bit. It still amazed him that Kanen'tó:kon always paid him compliments and looked at him if he was the most beautiful person on earth. He bend down a bit and kissed Kanen'tó:kon, nibbling on his lower lip, his hands put on the other one's hips. Kanen'tó:kon gently nudged him towards the steaming bath “In there with you, those fabulous muscles need soothing and relaxing” Connor grinned and moved towards it, giving Kanen'tó:kon a perfect view of his backside, which was as impressive as his front. A few more scars adorned his back and legs, but even the largest of them didn't take away from his beauty. Not in Kanen'tó:kon's eyes. He started undressing too, looking forward to spend a moment in the warm water with his lover. Connor was already relaxing in the steaming basin and only opened his eyes when the water moved and a body slid next to his “Move a bit...” “Kané...” Years of practice with Connor and his antics made him grin “Really Ratohnhake:ton ...”. Kanen'tó:kon pushed him a bit, ignoring the groan and placed himself behind him, pulling him against his chest “Now relax...”. It took Connor a while before the tension left his body, he was so used to being guarded and alert at all times that even now, with his lover, he had problems unwinding. Hands were ghosting over his arms, then slid around and ended on his chest. Kanen'tó:kon whispered in his ear “You have gotten bigger...” “No” “Oh yes... You have added muscles...”, he kissed his shoulder and let his hand slide to Connor's impressive pecs “Lots of muscles”. His thumb brushed over the nipple making Connor shudder a bit and sigh sleepily “No I have not...” “Yes you have ... I only lost unnecessary fat that is all, but you earned muscles, you have the perfect body of a warrior...” “Kanen'tó:kon...” “Sshhh, don't argue... Rest now...” It didn't take long and Connor was peacefully dozing, his breathing evening out and his body completely relaxed against Kanen'tó:kon's. Kanen'tó:kon let him rest for a bit, his hands trailing little patterns on his skin. The muscled body was just magnificent and a sight to behold. He had changed so much since moving to the homestead and still was changing. The boy he had loved had become a man, a beautiful tall and big one. Kanen'tó:kon would have never thought Connor to be interested in him as anything as a good friend and had been in heaven when they had first exchanged a kiss as teenagers. Unfortunately soon after that Connor had left their village and most of their relationship had blossomed through rare meetings and stolen moments. That was why he was here now. He had started missing his lover so badly, that his restlessness had made their Clan Mother put him on a horse and telling him not to come back before not having spent some time with Connor. It took some time for Kanen'tó:kon to notice that the water had considerably cooled down and that it would be a good idea to wake Connor and relocate to his bedroom. He sighed softly, he was so comfortable like this, but they would be better in bed. “Connor?”, he shook him gently “Connor?” Connor pressed against him and turned his head so he could kiss Kanen'tó:kon on the corner of his mouth, mumbling“Hmmmm?” “Let's get you out of here and into bed” Connor nodded but didn't move an inch. Kanen'tó:kon smirked and bit his neck playfully “Now...” “Hmmmm, yes...”, but the Assassin still didn't show any signs of movement, so Kanen'tó:kon got up, pulling him up “You can sleep soon” Connor stretched, making Kanen'tó:kon drool a bit and lean against his broad back “You are so beautiful” “Kané, stop please... I am nothing special” Kanen'tó:kon shook his head and grabbed a towel “You are blind my friend”. Connor was too tired to argue and fought another yawn as he stood there, half leaning against Kanen'tó:kon and being dried by him.“Bed, now...” “Kanen'tó:kon, I have to plan the next convoys...” “You will tomorrow...” “I have to...”, Kanen'tó:kon shook his head and interrupted him“You have to rest... You have the look of someone who will fall asleep standing... The convoy won't leave tonight, so you can do that tomorrow...” “I cannot start postponing things because of exhaustion Kanen'tó:kon” “Did our Clan Mother not tell you to look after yourself...” “I will when all of my wars have been fought Kané, when our village and our people are safe and my father and the other Templars are dead...” Kanen'tó:kon sighed, but was not ready to admit defeat “I will help you tomorrow”, fingers ghosted over his chest “but now your body”, the hand moved to his cheek “and your mind need rest...”. Kanen'tó:kon kissed him tenderly “Bed... Now...”. He wrapped him into a blanket and did the same, then pushed him towards his room. Connor really wanted to fight him, but deep inside he knew his lover was right. And he wanted to spend a moment in his arms, one night of peaceful sleep, real rest and no nightmares. Just forget all the bad things for a short moment. Five minutes later they were laying in bed, a cool breeze kissing their skin. Connor sighed deeply “We still have to close the window...” Kanen'tó:kon slowly passed a hand through Connor's hair and played with the single braid“Why?” “Someone may enter from there...” “No one will... Sleep, I will watch you, no one will get to you... You are safe my love”, Kanen'tó:kon pulled him into his arms, chuckling when the big frame of his lover awkwardly curled around him “I am glad you still fit in my arms” Connor lifted his head from his chest and gave him a kiss “I will always fit in your arms”. Connor really felt good. The bath had completely relaxed his body and he felt heavy with sleep. Knowing he always slept like a god when he was in Kanen'tó:kon's arms he looked forward to a reinvigorating night of sleep. He snuggled even closer and soon drifted of, cradled in his lover's arms who gently traced his spine up and down and enjoyed the moment. They didn't have the chance to lay like this often, in a comfortable bed, safe and warm. When they met somewhere in the Frontier it was nice, but Connor was never really relaxed, constantly alert and checking the surroundings and only sleeping for short amounts of time. Here in his manor he usually managed to let go and feel safe. It was a lot more pleasant like this. He contemplated his life-long friend for a long moment, kissing his head before he too let sleep wash over him. ============================================================= Part 2 will follow soon :)

Connor shook his head “That was a very dangerous thing to do Kané”

“I knew you would not hurt me...”

“It was reckless, I could have hurt you...”

“I am not easily breakable”

They walked the rest of the way in silence, Connor's horse following them, thumbs caressing the other's hand and glances being exchanged. Kanen'tó:kon took in the changes in his lover. He looked like hell. Dark circles framed his eyes and he looked exhausted. After a while he leaned over and gave him a playful peck on the cheek “Are you alright?”

“Yes... I came back from New York today and haven't had time to rest or bath yet”

“Yes, he jumped me”

Connor shook his head, still a bit annoyed that Kanen'tó:kon would risk his life like that, sneaking up on an Assassin was a real dumb thing to do “It was your fault, you should know better than trying to sneak up on me... I could have hurt you...”

“But you didn't”

“No, but I could have...”

“Yes, but you did not”

“You do not understand me Kanen'tó:kon...”, he switched to Mohawk “I do not wish to see you hurt”

Achilles, who had followed their little exchange with obvious amusement, pushed them towards the kitchen with his wooden walking stick “Well boys, how about you help an old man a bit”

“Of course...”

Connor stretched, making Kanen'tó:kon drool a bit and lean against his broad back “You are so beautiful”

“Kané, stop please... I am nothing special”

Kanen'tó:kon shook his head and grabbed a towel “You are blind my friend”. Connor was too tired to argue and fought another yawn as he stood there, half leaning against Kanen'tó:kon and being dried by him.“Bed, now...”

“Kanen'tó:kon, I have to plan the next convoys...”

“You will tomorrow...”

“I have to...”, Kanen'tó:kon shook his head and interrupted him“You have to rest... You have the look of someone who will fall asleep standing... The convoy won't leave tonight, so you can do that tomorrow...”

“I cannot start postponing things because of exhaustion Kanen'tó:kon”

“Did our Clan Mother not tell you to look after yourself...”

“I will when all of my wars have been fought Kané, when our village and our people are safe and my father and the other Templars are dead...”

Kanen'tó:kon sighed, but was not ready to admit defeat “I will help you tomorrow”, fingers ghosted over his chest “but now your body”, the hand moved to his cheek “and your mind need rest...”.

Part 2 will follow soon :)

Let me love you ;__________________________;!!!
I was waiting for something like that since always, you have just saved my life... <3
Your story is amazing and so tender ;v; it's so beautiful to see them togheter in so peaceful moments! I can't help myself but squealing in joyfull happyness ;v;!
I love the way you described of Kanen'tò:kon, it's just like I've ever thinked about him! So, thank you for your time ;v; and I can't wait to read more about them... thank you so much!

*blushes* Thank you, glad you liked it :)

Don't worry about a thing, writer!anon! I'm not a native english speaker either, so I know how hard it is to write in a language that's not your own and I appreciate this beautiful fill all the more for it.

About the fic, I loved how they've been in a relationship ever since teenagerhood and it was simply heartwarming to see them so protective towards each other.
This one line: “I do not wish to see you hurt” broke my heart just a little as I though about their fate. I loved it when Connor said “I will when all of my wars have been fought Kané, when our village and our people are safe and my father and the other Templars are dead...”
That's just so much like him!

And also, mmmm, I have a huge size-king so all the sentences about Connor being big and tall and muscolar got me just right!

I'm leaving now and I will be busy for a few days so sorry if I won't be able to feedback every single chapter but I'll stay tuned for more and leave a review as soon as possible.

You made me incredibly happy!

Thank you, I am glad you like it and I managed to write something that was what you wanted. I hope you like the next chapter too, the muses are running wild in my head hihi.

If there is anything you would like to happen, just tell me and I will try to get it done :)

Finally finished this chapter, became a bit longer than I actually planned hence the cut (the max is 16000 and I was way over it lol), but when ideas pop up I can't refrain from writing lol. Smut, fluff and fun ahead. Hope you like it :)

===========================================================================

As the sun rose, Kanen'tó:kon slowly woke and watching Connor a bright smile appeared on his face. During the night Connor had snuggled impossibly close, arm thrown over his chest, one massive thigh now draped over his legs and his face completely buried in the crook of his neck. The Assassin was still dead to the world, his breathing even and not remotely looking as if he would wake soon. Kanen'tó:kon didn't mind, not at all. He was comfortable and it felt good to be squashed like that. A breeze, the singing of the birds, his lover in his arms. Kanen'tó:kon sighed happily. He would give anything to have this every day, but for the moment this was better than nothing. All he could do was cherish and enjoy the moment, and that he did.

Half an hour later Connor started showing first signs that he came back to life. He stretched against Kanen'tó:kon, blinking the sleep out of his eyes and then squeezed closer, laying now half on top of Kanen'tó:kon and giving him a soft kiss, he whispered “Morning...”

“Good day to you... How have you slept?”

“Perfectly well...”

“Mmhmm, me too...”

Connor enjoyed another peaceful moment, but all too soon his sense of duty came up and he rolled onto his back and sighed deeply. He couldn't start to become mellow or lazy, he still had so many things to do before he could really enjoy those peaceful moments. He reluctantly got out of bed, and after quickly refreshing himself started dressing under the watchful eyes of Kanen'tó:kon.

Kanen'tó:kon really pitied himself as the layers of cloth started covering that body and sat on the edge of the large bed, shaking his head “Why don't you stay naked?”

“Kane?”

“You look so amazing, and yet you always cover yourself with all those layers that hide all of your muscles”, knowing how shy Connor was, he refrained from adding that that kind of butt needed to stay free of any garment.

“As do you”

“Yes, but I do not even look half as good as you”

“That is not true, you are beautiful”

Kanen'tó:kon smiled “Not next to you...”

“Especially next to me... You make me complete, without you I am far from beautiful...”

“You are insane Ratohnhake:ton”

Connor walked over to him and pulled his still naked lover up and into an embrace “You are beautiful Kanen'tó:kon...”, he passed a hand through the Mohawk Kanen'tó:kon wore, fluffing the hair up and then letting his fingers slide through the long tresses “Never believe that you are not beautiful, because you are...”. He kissed him tenderly “I love you”

“I love you too”

Connor let him go and smiled “Let's get ready and go downstairs... I am sure Achilles needs me to do things for him”

“I can help too if you want”

He nodded “If you really want to, it won't be a problem”

“It will help you finishing your duties faster”

Connor laughed “Oh, you do it for yourself...”

“I do it for us...”

“I can live with that”

They finished getting dressed and then joined Achilles in the kitchen. The second Connor had finished his breakfast, the man motioned towards the accounting ledger “You will have to...”

Connor immediately nodded and interrupted him “I know, I know... I apologize for not having done it yesterday”

“That is alright, you needed the rest, and with your friend here, you had the possibility”, Achilles had been quite shocked when he had first found them kissing and cuddling beneath a tree on the backside of the manor for everyone who descended to the harbour to see them. Even though shocked was a bit too harmless to explain the frown he had had on his face. And his gasped “Connor...” had only managed to make them look at him quizzically, wondering what they had done wrong. It had taken the man some time to finally accept that his Assassin had a relationship, which was bad enough, and that with a man, which was even worse. The two had explained to him that it wasn't frowned upon by their people, no, it was accepted and seen as a blessing. Now even Achilles saw it as a blessing, at least Kanen'tó:kon could protect himself, fact a woman couldn't necessarily. The relationship didn't hinder Connors missions for which he was grateful and seeing Connor act completely different with Kanen'tó:kon as he did with anybody else warmed his heart.

“There are problems in the Bahamas, Faulkner would like for the Aquila to go and help”

Connor sighed deeply “Now?”. Not that he didn't enjoy spending time on the ship and out on the sea, no, he really liked it, but now that Kanen'tó:kon was here, he had actually hoped to stay at the Homestead for a while, taking care of things he had promised the residents he'd help them with. Not to mention that it would allow him to spend some time with his lover. The weather was mild, spring announced itself as sunny and warm, and he had already so many things in mind they could do. But no, apparently duty called and he'd get only one or two nights in the arms of his lover.

Achilles noticed Connor's disappointed gaze but for the moment, there was nothing he could do to help. There was no way that the Assassin could just go and take a couple of days 'off' to have some fun with his lover “Well, you will have to deal with him, but he has been on my hind for weeks”

“I will go and talk to him...”

“You do that... But when the convoys are taken care of... The people here need the resources”

“Of course”

Two hours later he was done and met Kanen'tó:kon, who had been helping Achilles with diverse things, on the way to Faulkner. Kanen'tó:kon took his hand “Ratohnhake:ton”

“Yes?”

“Would you mind if I...”, it had been a dream for many years. Ever since his eyes had caught sight of the majestic ship and Connor had sheepishly admitted to being the captain of that-said magnificent ship. He inhaled deeply and, squeezing Connor's hand, he blurted “I want to come with you”

Connor looked confused “But you are...”

Kanen'tó:kon found it cute how dense Connor could be sometimes and grinned “No, not down there... To the Bahamas”

“Kanen'tó:kon... It will be dangerous and we will be gone for a few weeks... The village needs you”

“Our village needs you too, but you are only seldom there... They can survive without me, I am not the only warrior”

“No, but you are also a diplomat and you speak for them”

“Why do you want to deny me this”

“I do not want to deny you anything, but it will be a long and perilous journey...”

“I can take care of myself...”

“I know that...”, it was so tempting to accept and spend weeks with his lover, but Connor was so used to being lonely and miserable that it was hard to accept. He was afraid that the moment he'd do something because he wanted to and not because he had to, something bad would happen. But then again, the crew was able and he would be there to make sure Kanen'tó:kon stayed safe. He squeezed his hand back and nodded “But do not yell with me when you feel sick”

“Sick?”

“Sea sick... On my first journey I spend a couple of days feeling very sick”

“I won't... And if I do, you will have to take care of me”

Connor smiled “I will anyways...”

Faulkner smirked when he saw them arrive holding hands and letting them go the second they stopped in front of him. He had had a lot less difficulty to accept Connors relationship to a man. He had found out on a journey to Martinique when Connor had blushed and vehemently refused to enter the whorehouse, admitting he already had someone in his life, and that the Mohawk only took one partner for life. That it was a man had made the crew go silent for a moment but then they congratulated their Captain. And now they started whistling. Faulkner saw Connor's complete and utterly lost face and turned towards the crew “Stop it kids, leave the Captain alone...”

Connor blushed and bit his lower lip and made Faulkner chuckle “Do not fret my friend, you are accepted here”

He quickly changed the subject “You want to travel to the Bahamas?”

“Aye, we are the most able to take care of the problem... Plus it will allow for new trading routes to open for us...”

“When do you want to leave?”

“Well, I kept our Lady ready to sail, so we can leave tomorrow if you can spare the time”

“Very well...”, Connor became a bit shy, something he rarely showed nowadays, but the situation was new to him “We will have one more passenger”

Faulkner's grin widened “Oh, your friend is joining us?”

And Connor's blush intensified “Yes”

“Well, let me say it in the name of your crew Captain, we are happy to welcome your lover aboard our beautiful lady”

Connor blushed to a full extent and flinched a bit when Kanen'tó:kon squeezed his neck, very amused, and took over, knowing very well that the younger man was lost right now “Thank you Mister Faulkner”

“No Mister here... We are not a formal club, on the contrary...”, he extended his hand but since Kanen'tó:kon only watched it quizzically he took it back and smiled “And what is your name?”

“Kanen'tó:kon”

“Right, right... Could we get you an English name too?”

That made Connor snap out of his amazement. It was bad enough he had to deal with a second name, and he had only accepted because Achilles had been right about people accepting him quicker, but there was no reason for Kanen'tó:kon to have to do it too. He shook his head and snapped “No, he will not get one...”

“Well, then we will have to learn it, will be amusing to see how the crew will fare after a couple of mugs of ale”, Faulkner's grin seemed etched on his face as he turned towards Kanen'tó:kon “And now take your personal Assassin and spend a last day on the land... You will be missing it soon enough”

Connor was in a state of utter disbelief. He knew Faulkner and the crew had no problems with his relationship, but seeing them all goof around Kanen'tó:kon was a bit too much. Once they were far enough from the pier, he pushed Kanen'tó:kon against a tree and ravished his lips. Kanen'tó:kon moaned into their kiss and locked one leg around Connor's hips, pulling him even closer. He loved it when Connor used his strength like this and engaged him. It happened rarely enough and was something he treasured when it happened. They broke the kiss only when they needed to breathe and Kanen'tó:kon rubbed shamelessly against his friend “I like this very much Ratohnhake:ton”

“Really? I would not have guessed”

“No, huh... But are you sure we should do this here?”

“I do not care”

Kanen'tó:kon chuckled “Me neither, but it isn't like you to want to let them watch”

Connor turned and saw a couple of sailors winking from the ship “I do not want them to watch”

“That is what I said, glad we agree...”

“Come”, Connor pulled Kanen'tó:kon with him into the wild and once they were deep enough in the forest he let himself slide to the floor, pulling Kanen'tó:kon on top of him.

Connor sighed sadly “I do not have grease to make this comfortable, maybe we should go back to the manor”

Kanen'tó:kon shook his head, grinning like the cat that got the cream, the bird and the fish and started fishing a little recipient out of a pouch “Say thank you Kanen'tó:kon for always coming prepared”

“I love you”

“And I need you...”

The two undressed each other and then laid back down, Kanen'tó:kon straddling Connor and his tongue busy licking and sucking his pecs, then trailing towards the nipples and spending a good moment on them and making Connor moan shamelessly. His hands were caressing every inch of skin he could touch, his hips bucking against Kanen'tó:kon who moved back up and kissed him passionately while he pressed their crotches together. Their hard cocks rubbed against each other and made them both moan and move harder and faster. Connor was the first to completely lose himself and he came with a howl, spending himself on both of them. Kanen'tó:kon didn't have the time to grin and comment on the rapidity with which his friend had come. Connor growled and then rolled them over, his mouth immediately etched on Kanen'tó:kon's chest and then sucking and biting his way down. When he reached his lover's twitching member he licked the head, his tongue toying with the slit before he took him inside his mouth, adding just the right amount of teeth to make Kanen'tó:kon moan his name so loud, that he was positive that everyone on the Homestead had heard it. When he let the thick and pulsating cock slide deeper, deep-throating, Kanen'tó:kon couldn't withhold and came, spilling himself in his mouth. Connor never had any problem swallowing, all the contrary and he moved up, kissing his lover and sharing his seed with him. When Kanen'tó:kon sighed happily he chuckled “You taste wonderful...”

“You are amazing...”

They had both missed those moments and their bodies and their desire had too. And with the first edge taken care off, they could continue with less urgency and enjoy slow and tender love making. Connor prepared Kanen'tó:kon thoroughly and apparently needed a bit too much time. Kanen'tó:kon soon put his legs around Connor's waist and urged him on to continue “Please... I need you now...”

Connor complied and slowly entered the willing body writhing beneath him, making sure to keep his eyes on his lover's face to see any signs of pain. He was rather big, his cock thick and long and he didn't want to hurt Kanen'tó:kon or cause him any discomfort.

Discomfort was something that Kanen'tó:kon didn't feel. It burned a bit at the beginning, but Connor's sweet ministrations and careful attitude soon made him moan and move so the last inches could slide in.

“Stop teasing me... Move... Please Ratohnhake:ton..”, since Connor wanted to wait another moment to be certain not to hurt him, he started clenching around him and smiled contently when the bigger man shivered and finally started moving, slow at first but quickly accelerating his trusts. He completely pulled out and then pushed back in hard and to the hilt. Kanen'tó:kon's nails entered the skin on his back and only fuelled the Assassin's passion. They moved in complete synchronisation and when Connor moved a hand to his lover's cock, they both didn't last any longer. Kanen'tó:kon came hard and the sudden crushing clenching on Connor's cock made his own orgasm wash over him.

Connor dropped heavily on his lover, arms on each side of Kanen'tó:kon's face and panting into his ear. It took Kanen'tó:kon too a moment to come back to his senses, but then he felt somewhat crushed and he playfully pushed Connor's body off his and onto the grass “You are heavy...”

Connor mumbled “Hmmm” and rolled back on top of him “But I like it here”

He patted Connor's backside amused and pinched the soft, muscular flesh beneath his fingers“Then stay if it amuses you”

They exchanged a couple of innocent kisses and then Connor got up on his knees, straddling his lover “We should go and clean up... There is a river nearby”

Once they were both up, Kanen'tó:kon grinned mischievously and pushed Connor back to floor “First one in the water wins” and he took off at full speed. Connor was up in less time you could say his name, his English one, and chased after him. Kanen'tó:kon knew very well that he stood absolutely no chance of winning, but one could always hope and he absolutely loved the thrill of their chases. Shortly before the shore Connor had caught up with him and he tackled him straight into the river. There was a monumental splash that scared a rabbit who had been peacefully nibbling on some flowers and a couple of birds flew off, spooked by the commotion. Kanen'tó:kon came up, and spit out water, pouting playfully “That was not nice...”

“I won...”

Kanen'tó:kon smirked and shook his head “I won, I entered the water first”

“But only because I caught you”

“Still, I was first... So I won...”

“You cheated”

Kanen'tó:kon poked Connor's chest at each word, punctuating them“No, I said first one in the water wins, I was first, I win Ratohnhake:ton”

Admitting defeat in this situation was easy for Connor, so he played the game “And what was at stake”

“You...”

“Not only you cheat, but you also use your cheating to get me...”

“Always my love”, Kanen'tó:kon hold out his hand and smiled and Connor grabbed it and slowly came closer.

The water was deep enough to flow in it and Connor put his arms around his neck and his legs around his hips. Their crotches brushed and immediately both moaned softly, eyes locked. It seemed their little intimate dance would continue another round. Kanen'tó:kon had one arm holding Connor's back, the other his butt. That hand moved lower and slipped between the cheeks, one finger gently rubbing and then entering his lover. Connor's eyes lit up after a first little hiss and he pressed himself closer, his mouth finding Kanen'tó:kon's for a tender and slow kiss. They stayed like that for a little while, Kanen'tó:kon slowly moving his finger in and out before adding a second and then a third. Connor threw his head back and let out loud groan. It always burned at the beginning, but he knew how good it would feel once his lover had him completely ready. Kanen'tó:kon always made sure to have his beautiful Assassin properly prepared and so on edge that he became wax in his hands. He moved towards a big rock and leaned his back against it and then slowly replaced his fingers with his cock. Once completely sheathed he waited, one hand gently playing with Connor's hair “Are you alright?”

Connor nodded, he was not trusting his voice at this point but that didn't hinder him to show Kanen'tó:kon with his body that he was ready. He leaned on his shoulders and then moved his hips up before letting them move down again. They established a slow, deep rhythm that brought them both to the brink of insanity. It didn't take long and they both came together, clinging to each other. Kanen'tó:kon pulled out but kept Connor in his arms “I love you so much”

“You say that because of what we just did”

Kanen'tó:kon deadpanned “Of course, I only want your body”

Connor pretended kissing him and then bit Kanen'tó:kon's lower lip gently “I knew it”

They spent another moment cuddling in the water before they got out and lay in the grass, happily dozing next to one another and holding hands. Sunrays were filtering through the trees and soon they were dry and went back to where their clothes lay. Kanen'tó:kon hugged Conner from behind, nuzzling his neck, his hands joined on the perfect abs of his lover. Conner stretched his neck to the side to give him better access and put his hands on Kanen'tó:kon's. They stayed in that position for a couple of minutes, oblivious to the world around them. Kanen'tó:kon placed butterfly kisses on his shoulders and sighed contently against the skin “I could stay like this forever”

“As much as I would want that, we have to prepare for tomorrow”

“I am looking forward to it”

Connor turned and kissed him “And I am looking forward to have you by my side for weeks at a time...”

“Yes... It will be perfect... Your crew is very amusing”

“You don't even know how much...”, Connor let go and started dressing, a small frown on his face as he continued, voice betraying his annoyance on the subject “I still have not a complete understanding for their behaviour most of the time...”

Kanen'tó:kon chuckled “White men are strange”

“You do not even know how right you are...”

They continued dressing and after a moment of silence he continued “The second we will arrive in a harbour, they run towards a tavern and drink themselves silly... What normal person finds pleasure in drinking alcohol... And that to the point where all the senses are gone, they can't walk straight, they can't talk correctly, they behave strangely and in humiliating ways... Then they go and do things with women they do not know...”

Kanen'tó:kon gazed at him open-mouthed “No they do not”

“Oh yes they do... It is bordering disgusting... But they are good men, hard workers so I let them... But understanding it, I cannot”

“It will be a very amusing journey then”

“Yes...”

They walked back to the manor with a leisurely pace. It still was early afternoon and they didn't have any important things to do. Connor planned on helping with the food and beverage delivery to the ship a bit later, but for now the only thing he had in mind was something special for Kanen'tó:kon.

Over the past months he had kept all the furs from bobcats and cougars and when he had had enough of them, he had added two magnificent wolf furs and taken all of them to Ellen. The tailor had smiled and asked him if it was for courting a woman, which Connor had denied with flustered cheeks and had been astonished to hear that their shy and reserved resident native and Assassin was actually in a relationship with a childhood friend. Male. It made her realize that it probably was the one who sometimes came to visit him, but she had kept quiet, not wanting to pry. What she had done was creating a magnificent and rather huge blanket, that was big enough for Connor to wrap himself several times in it. Connor had it stashed away downstairs at the manor at the Assassin headquarters until he would see Kanen'tó:kon. And now the moment had come and he was rather nervous. Not sure how his lover would react when receiving it.

Kanen'tó:kon was speechless. He stared at Connor as if he couldn't believe it and made Connor only the more anxious at his reaction. “Don't you like it?”. His lover's answer was an embrace and a little sob when he mumbled against Connor's neck “I have never received anything this... This beautiful and special in all my life. Besides your love... But this is... I...”

Connor beamed with happiness and kissed his lover's cheek, relieved his idea had been well received “I am glad you like it”

“Like it? I absolutely love it... I cannot believe you give me this ...”, his hand passed through the soft fur “Did you kill them?”. Connor nodded “Yes... And one of our residents here put them together, she is a tailor...”

“I hope you thanked her”

Connor smirked “I gave her a horse for her daughter, I would believe that to be sufficient”

“You are a good man Connor”

That night, their last on land, they lay in each others arms, furry blanket under and on top of them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Connor woke moaning, his whole body on fire and all of his senses plugged on pleasure. All he felt was a pure bliss. Kanen'tó:kon had woken earlier than him, and had started kissing and licking a trail down south, grinning when the body beneath him had started shivering and moving. He knew it was normally dangerous to wake Connor like this, with the man constantly on high alert, but he hoped that he'd notice when waking that it was not an attack on his life, rather a pleasure attack on his senses. Connor's hand slid down and came to rest in his hair while he bucked a little, writhing and moaning “Kané...”

“Mhhmm”, speaking with a mouthful of wonderful cock was a bit difficult and Kanen'tó:kon wasn't thinking of talking to him anyways. Feeling the hard member pulsate in his mouth he knew his lover was close. He decided to tease him a bit and slowly let it pop out of his mouth, giving Connor a smirk and then started kissing the skin at the base. “Kanéééé”, Connor groaned his name again and grabbed his long hair “Don't tease... Not now... Too close...”. Kanen'tó:kon smiled and grabbed his cock in his hand, squeezing and then starting to move it up and down while he moved higher and kissed him “You look beautiful when you beg, Ratohnhake:ton”

Connor smiled back, his hand caressing over Kanen'tó:kon chest and quickly finding his lover's cock, rock-hard and warm and twitching in his hand. They lay facing each other, eyes locked as they brought each other higher and higher. Kanen'tó:kon loved Connor's eyes, normally dark and expressive but the closer he got to his orgasm, the more they sparkled golden. Not that his own eyes weren't as beautiful, Connor loved losing himself in the dark orbs. Knowing they couldn't howl their release with Achilles around, they locked their lips when it finally washed over them. Kanen'tó:kon snuggled up to Connor and sighed contently “This is a perfect morning”

“Yes it is... You are evil doing such things to me...”

“You love it...”

Connor's mood was good, better than good even. He always loved the last morning on land, somehow his bed always felt more comfortable when he knew he would not see it for a while. And with his lover and what they had just done, he felt like staying like this forever. He placed a kiss on Kanen'tó:kon's hair and held him in his arms, closing his eyes and dozing for a little moment.

The moment came to an end too fast, and soon they had to get up and prepare for their journey. Kanen'tó:kon watched Connor put on his captain's outfit and stared with his throat suddenly going awfully dry and his cock twitching. Seeing his friend's expression Connor did what he did best in such situations, he blushed, wondering what was going on “Kané?”

“You look... There are no words to express how you look...”

“How so?”

“You look absolutely perfect like this...”

“Kané, stop it...”

“But it's true”

“I look normal, like everybody else...”

“Oh no, you look like... The words elude me... You are...”, he pulled Connor into an embrace and started kissing his neck, adding teeth to it after a while and then started marking his lover's neck. He playfully licked over the result “Good, now everyone will know you are mine...”

Rubbing his neck Connor pulled a face, though amusement shone in his eyes “I would not want to be with anybody else, so this was quite unnecessary”

“But fun...”

Connor pouted slightly. He knew that the second that the crew would see it the teasing would start. And the only person who's teasing he understood was the one who had put him in this situation. Whenever the crew tried to add him to their bantering and playing around he ended up confused.. Two cultures colliding, not to mention that his life was too serious and dangerous to even comprehend how people could let go and have fun, he often ended up not understanding what they expected of him or why they acted they way they did. For years Kanen'tó:kon had been trying to make him lighten up, but to no avail. There were short moments where he laughed and made jokes, but they were way too rare.

“No one will notice...”

“Hopefully or they will have something to laugh about”

“Is that bad?”

“That is not the question... But I am their Captain... If they don't respect me, how can we work together...”

“Knowing you have a lover and have an intimate relationship will not make them respect you less... On the contrary... They seemed happy for us yesterday”

“You are right...”

Grinning Kanen'tó:kon nodded “I know...”

They went downstairs and after a short search, Connor found Achilles outside, overlooking the bay behind their manor, sitting on a rock. He stopped next to his mentor “We will be back in a couple of weeks... Should something happen, you...”

Achilles immediately waved him off “I can defend myself Connor”. He was used to Connor worrying, not only about him but everyone living there. Connor suspected his father to know the location of the Homestead and was constantly imagining the worst. Not that Achilles didn't. He didn't trust Haytham nor any of his men, but he also knew that the chances were slim that they would attack his lands. Connor sat down next to him, elbows leaning on his thighs and head turned towards him “I know old man, but should anything happen, you can always contact Lafayette, he is closest to here and I trust him”

“Yes, he is a good man... But I am not exactly a victim boy, I was fighting when you were not born yet”

Connor nodded “Could you send a message to my village that Kanen'tó:kon joined me on a mission”

“First thing tomorrow I will send a courier”

“Thank you Achilles... Will you need anything from the Bahamas?”

Achilles patted Connor's shoulder “An old man like me has anything he needs Connor”

“Very well... We will make haste”

Connor and Kanen'tó:kon walked down towards the harbour, a couple of personal belongings with them and additional crates with fresh food, vegetables, bread, eggs and even a couple of crates full with ales and spirits for the crew transported by a cart. Kanen'tó:kon curious, had sniffed one of the bottles, and had told Connor with a smirk that he was looking forward to try it. Though his lover was less than thrilled by that announcement “I do not wish to see you drunk Kané”

“Won't get drunk, just try it”

“It is your decision”

“Have you tried any of them?”

“No”

“Really?”

“Well, once with Stéphane in Boston... But only a little sip of ale...”

“And?”

Connor shrugged “I do not see the difference with water, though water refreshes better”

They arrived and one of the crew came to take the crates below deck. Connor and Kanen'tó:kon followed him to put their belongings in Connor's little room, courtesy of being the Captain. Only he and Faulkner had their own rooms, the others shared two larger ones. Kanen'tó:kon put his blanket on the bed, his eyes bright and feeling like a little boy again. No duties until the Caribbean, only him and Connor and their adventures. Connor showed him the lower decks and then they went back up where Faulkner was having the crew ready everything.

“Captain... We can depart in a couple of minutes”

“Good...”

Kanen'tó:kon was in awe, seeing his lover like this. Connor was leaning against the wheel, enjoying the breeze that ruffled the strands of hair that weren't covered by his hat, and the fresh air. They were at half sail, gently riding the waves out of the creek and the ship resembled a beehive, men buzzing right and left, busy. The moment they were on open sea Connor called for full sails and Kanen'tó:kon observed both him and the ship, still in good mood and in high spirits.

That changed after a couple of hours when the sea became a little wilder. First he only felt a little dizzy, but soon his stomach started to rebel and his breakfast found it's way back up. Faulkner replaced Connor at the wheel, trying hard not to smirk too much. He always found it a bit amusing when someone got sick at sea “He will get used to the movement, don't worry”

“I hope...”, Connor sighed sadly “I do not like to see him like that, he does not deserve that”

“He will be alright, it didn't last long with you either”

“It took me three full days”

Pushing Connor in Kanen'tó:kon direction “Go take care of your lover Captain”

Connor took Kanen'tó:kon to their room and made him lay down “You will feel better soon”

Kanen'tó:kon kept his head low, feeling stupid for ruining Connor's day, and his voice was only a whisper when he leant against Connor “I am sorry Ratohnhake:ton”

Connor caressed his cheek and kissed him tenderly “You are not at fault Kané ... You know I had the same problem at the beginning, but I do not have it anymore, you will get used to the waves...”

“I hope this passes quickly”

Connor pulled his head onto his lap and softly caressed his hair “It will, you are not getting sick in a canoe after all, so try to sleep a little”

“I do not think I can...”

“Wait a moment... I will go and get you something...”

Kanen'tó:kon curled into a ball and held the bucket in sight, not trusting his stomach to keep calm. At least below deck he felt the movement of the ship less. While he fought another purging of his stomach, Connor was waiting for the cook to finish a tea that would help his lover. When the man added something he found suspicious he wondered if it had been the right person to ask “What are you putting in there?”

“Something that will help... Believe me Captain, he will feel better, it will dull all his senses, and help his stomach to calm down”

“I do not want his senses dulled...”

“They won't be completely dulled, but his stomach will”

“If he feels sicker, I will hurt you and throw you overboard for the fish to finish you off”

“You won't have to Captain... It always helps...”

“I do hope for you...”

Connor took the mug back to his room, still not very convinced that the brew in it would indeed help Kanen'tó:kon. He sat down on the bed and helped him drink the warm liquid “I think your trying of their alcohol happens faster as you wanted it”

“Great... And I can't enjoy it...”

“It will help you to rest...”

“I rather sleep through this feeling if I am honest... Though I would love to be on deck and see everything”

“We have weeks to go Kané, you will have the opportunity to spend hours up there”

“And in the meantime I hinder you work”

“Do not say that... Faulkner taught me everything I know, he can steer this ship as well as I can”

Kanen'tó:kon soon was sleeping, and Connor though he didn't want to leave him, decided to go and check on Faulkner. When he arrived on deck, the man grinned “And? How is he faring?”

“I made him drink a tea and he is now asleep”

“Good... He will be feeling better soon”

Connor nodded and after a while went back to Kanen'tó:kon's side. When the sun was setting, Connor woke him. “How are you feeling?”

“I do not know”

Putting his hand on Kanen'tó:kon's forehead he was relieved the skin felt cool and not clammy anymore “What do you mean you do not know?”

“My body feels heavy but my stomach seems to be alright”

“I am so glad...”, Connor kissed him “Do you want to see the sunset? The sea is calm now, I don't think you will be sick again...”

“Yes...”

Kanen'tó:kon gaped at the horizon, where the sun was finishing it's descent and seemed to drown in the sea in the most spectacular colours “I have never seen something like that”

Connor put his arm around him “It does not look like that at home”

“No... Will you use the stars to navigate once it is dark?”

“Yes... I know the way, this was my first route... We will stop at Martha's Vineyard to load more weapons in two days”

“Oh, I will witness their strange behaviour...”

“As long as you do not act like them, you can witness what you want...”

Kanen'tó:kon smirked amused “So I can't do things with women?”

Connor's head snapped up and he stared at his lover, pondering if he was serious or not. They had both never had intimate relationships with the opposite gender, or at least he hoped that Kanen'tó:kon never had. With all that had happened, his missions to eradicate the Templars, he had spend less time with his lover than he had wanted, and though he trusted Kanen'tó:kon unconditionally, he couldn't be sure. He had never asked him if maybe he had found interest in a woman, had never even assumed that that might happen. And now his lover, the only one he let close, the only one he had ever slept with, the one he had had his first time with, suddenly said such things. “Do you wish to... With a woman?”

“No, I was jesting Ratohnhake:ton... You are the only one for me”

Connor grabbed his hand “Have you ever wanted to?”

“No, I already told you... Ratohnhake:ton...”, he squeezed his hand and lifted it, gently kissing Connor's knuckles “I have everything I want and need with you...”

Their discussion was interrupted by Faulkner who had gone to have dinner and brought them two plates “Here boys... How are you feeling Kano... Kani...”, noticing the native smirk he waved his hand “Oh come on, help me out here, will you...”

“Kanen'tó:kon”

“Is there any way to make that easier to pronounce?”

Connor shook his head “No...”

“Oh come on... Even you must have nicknames...”

“What?”

“Shorter version or something else altogether”

“I do not understand...”

Faulkner was used to those moments where Connor didn't get what he was saying, even though it had become better with time “Whatever...”, he turned towards Kanen'tó:kon “How are you feeling?”

Kanen'tó:kon smiled, wrapped in his furs “Better...”, pointing to his plate he added “Though I am not sure if food will not make it come back”

“If you are feeling well, then it won't...”, pushing Connor aside he smiled “Let me take the wheel so you can eat”

Connor sat down behind him with his back against the railing and Kanen'tó:kon joined him and sat down next to him. Connor was still in thoughts, his lover's teasing about women was making him nervous. He had never even given it a thought, they had been in love for so long that it seemed so natural, so eternal. Kanen'tó:kon tasted the food and found it surprisingly good, but his lover's lost expression and the fact he was playing with the food made him sigh “ Ratohnhake:ton please... You are the only one who has my love... There will never be anybody else”

“How can you know? We do not see each other often... Maybe some beautiful woman will catch your attention... You could become a father”

“I really think the sea air does bad things to your head”, Connor's head snapped up for the second time and he stared at his lover who chuckled “I have been in love with you since like forever Ratohnhake:ton... You made all my wishes come true when we came together... And I do not want to be a father, I want to be your lover... So do not go and imagine things...”

“I don't, I just wonder that is all... It is not fair that I bound you to me and don't have time for you”

“It is true that I often miss you, but that is no reason not to be with you...”, he smiled “And it makes the time we spent together even more valuable...”

Connor nodded “That is true... I can find solace and peace only in your arms...”

“The Gods chose for us, we are meant to be together”, gently pushing his elbow into Connor's side “So stop fretting... I never gave you reasons to doubt me, so do not create some imaginary ones... You do not see me wonder about you, even though you have more contact with women and men alike...”

“I would never consider anyone else...”

“Good... And now eat... You need your strength, Captain”

Connor chuckled “You are right”

“I am always right...”

“Oh really”

“Yes really... And this is delicious”

“Yes, though I wonder how that man manages such delightful meals in that kitchen”

“Who cares...”

When they finished, Kanen'tó:kon put his head on Connor's shoulder, eyes looking up “The stars are so bright...”

“Yes... The sky is beautiful tonight”

“Not as beautiful as you”

“Kanééééééééé”

“It's the truth, don't complain about the truth”

“Kanéééééé, really...”

Kanen'tó:kon pulled his tongue at him just as Faulkner turned “Oh... The boys are becoming immature I see”

Connor blushed and quickly got up “No... We finished dinner... How about I take the wheel for the night and you can go and rest”

“How about you and...”, he pointed to Kanen'tó:kon and imitated Connor “Kané go and rest too... The boys here can take over... I do not believe there to be any problems, the weather will stay stable”

Connor snapped, a bit harsher than he actually wanted but no one called Kanen'tó:kon that besides him “Do not call him that...”

Kanen'tó:kon had always loved Connor's possessiveness and Faulkner found it cute “Why? It is a lot easier... You called him that right now, no?”

“I call him that because he is my lover”

“But it is just a shortening of his name, no?”

“It is what I call him...”, if Faulkner didn't know it was impossible, he'd think that their Captain was sulking right now and laughing, he shook his head “Captain... I need to address your lover with something else than 'your lover' or 'you there', it makes me feel uneasy...”

Kanen'tó:kon intervened, hugging Connor from behind “It is alright...”, whispering in his lover's ear he switched to Mohawk “He won't ever moan it”

Connor sighed “Alright... It will indeed be easier...”

“Good, now that that is cleared... You two have a nice night, and you Kané, enjoy it... Now that you feel better”

“I will”

“Faulkner... We rested all afternoon, maybe it...”, but he got interrupted by the man “I can promise you, that some things are really nice when done on open sea and you are lucky enough to have your lover here with you”

“What?”

Faulkner made a very naughty movement with his hips and Connor blushed full force “Do not do that... That is... disgusting”

“Sure, sure... I just tried to give you ideas... Go below deck, get comfortable and have fun Captain... Have a nice night boys”. Faulkner left amused and Connor noticed his lover was pressing his face against his shoulder-blade, puffing and on the verge of a massive laughing attack.

“This is not funny”

“Oh yes it is... And I really would love to have you right now”

“You have me Kané, what do you mean?”

Chuckling Kanen'tó:kon smirked and made the same movement Faulkner had done leaving Connor stare at him as if he had lost his mind “You are... I... Kané...”

“Ssssh”, Kanen'tó:kon pulled him into an embrace “I desire you Ratohnhake:ton... Every moment of every day”

“But here with all them around...”

“We can be discreet my love...”

Connor felt a bit anxious to be naked on his ship. Not because he was prude, that was something that didn't really exist in his vocabulary, but being naked rendered him vulnerable in case of an attack. Kanen'tó:kon patted his chest, squeezing a nipple “Nothing will happen, come... Let me make you feel good”

They snuggled up on the small bed, rubbing their bodies against each other and kissing without ever losing the other's lips. When Connor came, Kanen'tó:kon held him, gently nipping his neck and pulling him into his arms “That was amazing...”

“Faulkner was right... The movement of the ship is very arousing...”

“I believe this journey will be very very special...”

Connor chuckled and pressed his face against Kanen'tó:kon's neck “I love you...”

“Love you too”

They spent the night glued to each other, the waves gently rocking them throughout the night.

The next two days Connor showed Kanen'tó:kon what sailing was made of, even putting him at the wheel while hugging him from behind and glaring at any man who would look at them a bit too long. Fact Kanen'tó:kon found more than amusing. It was early morning on the third day when the first cottages could be seen and Connor pointed towards them “We will be at the Vineyard soon”

“It really looks peaceful and idyllic”

“It is... Though I have never stayed here for long...”

Connor steered the ship into the harbour, grinning at Kanen'tó:kon's amazement and switching back to English since Faulkner stood next to him “Hey, I can steer it out, I surely can steer it in”

Faulkner chuckled, patting his shoulder “I do not need to have details on your steering 'in' of things”

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing, nothing Captain...”

Frowning a bit and quite sure he had missed something again, especially since everyone smirked, he shook his head “We will leave tonight... We will get everything we came for, and then you can have the day to yourselves”

Loud cheering could be heard and Kanen'tó:kon chuckled “I look forward to have you to myself...”

“I will show you around, maybe we can spend some time at the beach”

“Oh yes, I would love that”

They bought another set of canons and since the Aquila had been prepared to receive them, and with everyone helping, the installation happened rather fast. Faulkner pulled Connor aside “You watch your man, alright... You do not look native, well at least not as much as he does, and I do not want a drunken sailor or some other idiot trying to stir up shit...”

“I will kill anyone looking at him the wrong way Faulkner”

“That is exactly what I want to avoid Captain...”

“Everything will be alright, and should someone not show him respect, well, they will do it once and never again”

“Great... Don't create havoc please...”

“We won't, I wanted to show him the beach you showed me last time”

“Good... Well, have fun... You can find me...”

Connor interrupted him, rolling his eyes “At the tavern, where else, right?”

Patting Connor's shoulder Faulkner grinned “What do you want me to say, I like it there”

“You like that woman”

“Yes”, Faulkner sighed “Amanda... But she does not like me anymore...”

“Maybe she does”

“Maybe you are right Captain, I should try to charm her again...”

“Good luck my friend...”

Connor and Kanen'tó:kon walked through the harbour and Connor bought some fruits Kanen'tó:kon didn't know “You'll see, they are delicious”

“As delicious as you?”

“Kané please...”, grabbing Kanen'tó:kon's hand and not caring, or realizing, that people stared at them, he pulled him along “Come...”

They found a nice spot in the shades under an oak tree that captivated Kanen'tó:kon's attention to a point where Connor announced amused, that he was starting to get jealous. Kanen'tó:kon only laughed and patted the oak “Well, it is hard and thick”, pressing his body against it he sighed contently, moaning a bit for the form “So big, hard and thick”

Connor was laying on his back, watching him and pulled an adorable pout “You love that oak more than me, I am devastated”

“I have enough love for the both of you...”

“I do not share”

“But me and my oak do”, he let himself drop half on Connor and patted his chest “Please... We both like you very very much”

“You are insane”

“This beautiful place, this beautiful tree and you, make me insane...”, he kissed him tenderly “How about taking a little dive... That water is looking very appealing... I have never seen waves that big”

“You go ahead, I will stay here”

“Ratohnhake:ton... It will not be fun alone”

“I know”, he sighed and looked around “But there are people here that might have followed us... I have enemies who do not care what I do and who I am with... All they wait for, is a moment in which I let my guard down to strike”

“Please... I am here too, I could help if they decide to attack”

“That is not my main concern, but all of my weapons will be here and I will be in the water”

There was a commotion, screaming and laughing and then a couple of the crew came running through the bushes “Hey Captain... We decided on a little swim...”. They were definitely already more than inebriated and made Connor frown a bit. His little piece of heaven suddenly seemed too crowded “And this is the only place you could think of?”

“Well yes... Since you were already here we wanted to join you...”

Kanen'tó:kon embraced him, nibbling on his ear “There goes our moment with the tree”

Connor dropped his face against Kanen'tó:kon's arm “I told you they became... Well...”, seeing them undress and run into the waves laughing and screaming he only added “Like that... They become loud and annoying”

“You need to have some fun too love, come, let's join them”

“I am their Captain, I cannot act like that...”

“I am sure they would not hold it against you...”

“But I would...”

Kanen'tó:kon sighed and shook him gently “You are too serious Ratohnhake:ton, really...”. He really wanted to him to join him and the others but he knew that it would be very difficult to coax him into it “You do not have to scream or splash... But it is warm and a little bath would make you more comfortable”

“Kané...”

“You know I am right...”, he started undressing him, patting his hands away when Connor tried to grab him to make him stop “Don't... You will come with me into those waves... You don't have to act like a boy, but I want you with me...”

Connor tried a last time to get him to stop “They will stare at my body” and completely lost the game since his lover only nodded, a huge grin on his face “Yes, I know... I want them to be jealous... You are mine...”

Connor playfully punched his shoulder “You really want me to join you and you make up such things”

“Guilty...”, having Connor naked, he quickly got rid of his clothes and then ran into the sea, throwing himself into a big wave and then surfacing behind it. He waited for Connor, who suddenly felt an awful lot stupid and imitated him, at least in the water his crew would not see him naked. When he surfaced, his crew was whistling and clapping and he immediately felt bad for acting like a little boy. Kanen'tó:kon didn't let him mop and threw himself on him, trying to dunk him.

“Kané”

“Yes?”

“Stop that...”

“Why?”

Connor grinned and dunked him “That is why...”

“That was mean Ratohnhake:ton”

“You started it”

When Connor walked back to where his uniform lay he saw Faulkner sitting under the tree, leaning against the trunk and indulging in both some ale and the fruits he had bought for Kanen'tó:kon. Connor quickly covered himself, glad that his first mate and mentor had the decency to lower his gaze and stole back a strawberry “Those are mine...”

“I thought so, those other goons do not know how delicious fruits are unless they are swimming in ale...”

Drying himself off with the outer layers of his uniform and putting on the undergarments he grabbed another one “They were for Kanen'tó:kon and me”

“Well, then you will take it with delight if I tell you that I had a couple of boxes taken to our lady...”

“Good...”

When Connor was dressed he sat next to Faulkner and observed his lover who had joined the other crew men in their water games. Connor sighed “He is so open with anyone...”

“Just the opposite of you”

“Yes”

“Why? I mean I know we are all different, but you are always so serious and distant, you always were”

Connor shrugged “My life is serious... I have so many things to achieve, that I sometimes wonder if I can finish all in this life”

“You need time to yourself Captain... Time only to yourself and your lover of course... Where you forget all about your father, the Templars, the British...”

Connor frowned “Oh... You mean like you did? Hiding in your little cabin with alcohols?”

Faulkner laughed “I guess I deserved that... I lost myself, but thanks to Achilles and you I got back on the trail...”, slapping Connor's knee he shook his head “But what I meant for you, was some time back at your village, or somewhere else, far from everything”

“I cannot do that... Not as long as Lee is alive... Not as long as my father has not changed his ways...”

“And if he doesn't change?”

“Then he will join Lee...”

“Do not lose yourself along the way, my boy”

“I won't...”

“Well, as long as you have Kané on your side, you will manage fine...”

Looking where his lover was, he saw him still having fun with the others and smiled “He is all I have left...”

Getting up, Faulkner fluffed through his Captain's hair “You have us too... And Achilles and all the residents... Your Assassin friends... You are not alone, Connor, far from it...”

The sun was just setting when the Aquila left the port, the sky starting to cloud and Kanen'tó:kon not looking too happy. He imitated Faulkner who was leaning on the other side of Connor against the railing and sighed “Does the sky mean it will get stormy again?”

“Oh I can guarantee you it wasn't stormy a couple of days ago...”, Faulkner shook his head “But no... Those are just a few clouds, they do not foretell rain or storm...”

Kanen'tó:kon sighed, relief shining on his face “Good... I can live without feeling sick...”

“I wouldn't assume that heavier waves mean sea sickness, I believe you just had to get used to it... And let's face it... Our Captain here...”, he punched Connor friendly on the arm “... needed longer to stop purging his stomach and looking green...”

“Very decent of you to make mention of it...”

“Well, you are a great Captain, I would even say you have surpassed me... So please let me have the satisfaction of knowing that the first hours and days took a toll on you...”, chuckling he added “You were green in the face”

“And you will soon have to swim behind the ship my friend”

“Oh come on Connor, lighten up...”

The next three weeks were spend mainly on open sea, the weather sunny and the temperatures rising as they sailed closer to their meeting point with the Independence. Faulkner knew their Captain and they had informed him via a network of harbours and allies that they often crossed privateers who did everything to control the main routes. Faulkner planned on stopping at one of their regular harbours and get information on where the Independence was at so that they would join them. With their new cannons they were a force to be reckoned with, not to mention that Connor was top notch when it came to sailing into problematic situations. Kanen'tó:kon had found his place on Connor's other side, his fur blanket on the floor and comfortably resting with his back against the railing and his his legs stretched, eyes on his lover. Connor chuckled, looking at him “Are you comfortable?”

“Yes... Very... Good position and nice sight...”

“I am glad you enjoy yourself”, Connor smiled, happy that his friend was enjoying himself. No sea sickness, a good relationship with the crew and the ability of helping when needed. He had to admit he really loved it like this. “We will sail into shallow waters... There are hundreds of tiny little islands, very beautiful... We will cast the anchor and spend a couple of hours on land... The men need a moment...”, Faulkner didn't understand a word they were speaking and interrupted his Captain “English boys...”

“If was telling Kanen'tó:kon that we will drop the anchor soon and spend some time on land”

Faulkner nodded “Yes... But we should get closer to a harbour, you know how the crew gets when left without women and taverns”

“Yes, I won't just stop around here”

“I know you won't... And two days south of here we will find even nicer beaches”

Connor nodded “Alright...”

Two days later, Kanen'tó:kon felt like a little boy, his eyes sparkling as he took in the environment. Connor was steering the ship through shallow waters, passing rocks and cliffs by what anyone on the ship would call 'close-calls' and yet the Aquila seemed to glide past them without even thinking of touching them. Connor was used to his special sight, his Eagle vision, even though no one had been able until now to explain it to him. What he knew was that he was the only one capable of it within his tribe and Achilles had only hinted towards him being somewhat related to Ezio Auditore since the Italian assassin had mentioned it in his writings. Right now all that mattered was that he could distinguish the currents and the cliffs. And not only them. Late afternoon, Connor distinguished the four ships first, his sight not letting him down. Growling annoyed, he called his men to quarter and Faulkner bellowed to load their cannons. Connor turned towards Kanen'tó:kon and told him to go below deck.

Kanen'tó:kon shook his head “You are not serious...”

“It may get unpleasant...”

“I do not care, I will stay at your side...”

“Very well, but when I tell you to take cover, you do...”

“I promise...”

All things considering the two schooners and two frigates were an easy target, probably because they were all acting as a team and Connor had enough instinct and talent to literally foresee their enemies movements. When the last one went down and the cheering started, Faulkner patted his shoulder “Well, they didn't see that coming... Now our convoys can pass this parts unharmed”

“Yes...”

“We should head back to an harbour, there are quite a few very small ones around here, where we can find refills and a moment of safe rest...”

“We will never have a moment of safe rest Faulkner...”

“Well, our lady needs it... Some minor reparations and we can continue our journey...”, he walked down “Plus they have really magnificent beaches around here... Palms, white sand, clear sea...”

“Whatever you say”

“Head south...”, Faulkner walked down “I will be back soon, need some ale after all of this action”

Kanen'tó:kon had helped clear the deck of debris and was now back at his lover's side “I never experienced anything like that...”

“Be happy for that fact... Those were easy targets, but I can assure you I had worse, far worse...”

“You did very well, and I am sure you also did then...”

“I still could have avoided those cannon impacts”, he motioned towards the broken railing.

“No one got hurt, that is the most important”

“Our lady got hurt...”

“But you will repair the ship”, he chuckled “Sorry, the lady...”

“If you don't respect the Aquila, you will have to swim”

“Oh, I do respect her Ratohnhake:ton... But I rather swim with...“, he pressed his body against Connor's back “With you on a nice beach...”

They arrived at the harbour Faulkner had directed him to in the evening and Connor dropped the anchor at the only pier “Good... Now let's start the repairs immediately and then spend the night here...”

Faulkner nodded “Yes... In the meantime I will try and find out where the Independence was last seen... It would be counterproductive to just sail out and not find her”

“You do that Faulkner...”

The repairs took a good part of the night. It wasn't exactly easy in the dark and with a wary crew who wanted nothing more than to party. In the early morning hours they finally finished and Connor and Kanen'tó:kon retired to the beach. They enjoyed the sunrise on a little beach separated by a lagoon from the mainland. If you could call it mainland. The main island was really tiny, only a small, sheltered harbour and a couple of houses next to a tavern. Probably one of the reasons Faulkner liked it so much. That and the fact it was held by friends. It was quiet and peaceful and they just were feeling blessed to sit cuddled up and enjoy their own little private moment. Connor was sitting between Kanen'tó:kon's legs, leaning against his chest, his head placed on his shoulder. Their arms were joined on the Assassin's chest, hands locked. Kanen'tó:kon placed a kiss on his cheek “I could stay like this forever...”

“Me too... Only you and me and this little spot of heaven...”

“How about we fish later...”

“Good idea...”

Unfortunately they wouldn't be able to since the first mate's voice could be heard “Connor...”. Connor sighed and turned his head towards Faulkner who quickly made his way through the shallow water “Connor...”

“Yes?”

“We just received a distress call...”, he sat on his heels next to the two “The Independence won't make it to safe waters alone... Some idiotic privateers broke their main mast apparently...”

“Is the Aquila ready to sail out?”

“Ready and able...”

Connor stretched and got up “Well, then let's sail...”

Kanen'tó:kon followed suit and got up too “Well, there goes the day at the beach”

“It is always like this... Whenever I think I have a moment to just spend resting, something comes up... I really hoped the Independence would make it to harbour safely”

“Well, didn't we come here to help them?”

“Yes, we did...”

The Aquila sailed out and it didn't take more than two hours to reach the other ship. Unfortunately they were not the only ones. Seeing the sheer amount of ships that were sailing towards them once they had taken position next to the Independence, Faulkner and Connor exchanged worrying glances “This time we won't finish them quickly Captain”

“No, and the Independence is a sitting target...”

Faulkner nodded “We could circle her and make sure they can't reach her...”

“And block their cannons?”, Connor called for half sails “They may be incapable of moving, but they can still a minimum defend themselves...”

“How many are there?”

Connor's and Faulkner's eyes screened the horizon where three groups of ships were coming closer, Faulkner answering him “Too many Kané, too many...”

Connor quickly counted them and sighed “tsá:ta iawén:re”, seeing Faulkner stare he chuckled “Seventeen... There are seventeen ships... tsá:ta iawén:re... Seventeen... ”

“Thank you for the language course Captain, but I would assume this not to be the right moment to start teaching me numbers...”

Connor gave him a little smile but quickly resumed command “Load the cannons and get the swivels ready... There are many small ships, we should destroy them with one shot...”, turning towards the men handling the swivels he added “Shoot the moment you have the opportunity, even if I do not give the order”

“Yes Captain...”, the crew was ready and eager to have some fun and destroy them all and then quickly go back to spend time whoring and drinking.

Faulkner smirked, now that he had counted the amount of smaller ships he felt confident that they would quickly manage to finish at least them off “Load the heat shots men...”

The fight was a straining and long one. The small ships were quickly taken care off, but the frigates where a lot tougher, especially since Connor tried not to get too far away of the Independence. And what was even more annoying was two swivel bullets that had hit him when he hadn't ducked fast enough. His shoulder hurt but he ignored it for as long as the fight lasted, Faulkner not noticing since he was busy and neither Kanen'tó:kon who helped bringing wounded men below deck so they would not have to lay on deck and wait for the end of the fight. Once Connor stopped the Aquila next to the Independence, Kanen'tó:kon walked up to him and noticed the blood flowing down his lover's hand and pooling on the wooden floor.

“Ratohnhake:ton??? Are you hurt?”

Faulkner may not understand Mohawk, but the tone Kanen'tó:kon had used made him worry too “Connor? Everything alright?”

“Yes, only a scratch”

“How a scratch?”, he helped Kanen'tó:kon make him sit and started opening his uniform, Connor weakly protesting “I am alright... There are men below deck, who need the healer more than me...”

“Let me assess that, Captain...”, he turned to Kanen'tó:kon “Go below deck and bring clean sheets and water... And tell the doc to give you the patch-up pouch, he'll know which one...”

“I am alright Faulkner, the others need you more...”

“You need to help me undress you and let me check you, that is all I have to do... You lost a lot of blood”

“Nonsense...”

Once he had the upper layers down and was face to naked chest he rolled his eyes “You were lucky Captain... One hit the shoulder and one your arm”

“I know...”

“The arm won't need stitches, but the shoulder does”

“Nonsense...”

“I should have never taught you that word Captain...”

Kanen'tó:kon came rushing back and sat on his knees next to his lover, gently patting his shoulder and inspecting the wound “You are hurt...”

“It will be alright, it isn't that bad...”

Kanen'tó:kon grabbed the needle Faulkner had in his hand “Let me do this...”

“You know how to?”

“Yes...”

“Good, I will go and check on the others and then I will go over to the Independence and check on them”

Connor leaned his head against the wooden railing and nodded, before concentrating on his trembling lover “I will be alright Kané, I promise... This is nothing but a scratch”

“You should have been more careful... I do not wish to lose you”, he started stitching and kissed him tenderly on the cheek when Connor hissed “I will be done quickly and then I will take you to your bed and make you rest”

“No... I have a lot to do... I will rest later...”

“You are impossible...”

“But you love me anyways, right?”

“Yes... And that is why I want you to be careful and listen to your body...”

“I am alright”, Connor started wondering when his vocabulary had started shrinking to 'Nonsense' and 'I am alright' and chuckled “I had worse...”

“Is that supposed to make me happy now?”

“No, but it may help you to stop fretting over me and worrying...”

Kanen'tó:kon rolled his eyes and quickly finished, before bandaging both his shoulder and his biceps “I do not want this beautiful body ruined...”

That ripped Connor out of his dozing and he nudged his lover, laughing “Ruined? Those little scars won't ruin it... I have bigger ones all over my body”

Kanen'tó:kon's hand gently trailed one that stretched from under his right peck to his side, knowing well that such a wound could be deadly “Yes, and you should not take them so lightly... You could have died already many times...”

Following his lover's hand with his eyes he sighed “I am an Assassin Kané, chances are high that I will die a painful death...”

“Do not say that”, he slapped him on the head “I do not want to hear such things...”

“But it is the truth Kané...

“Then I will have to always stay with you and watch out for you...”

“No...”

“No?”

“No... I do not want you to get hurt...”

“I am a warrior too, maybe not as good as you, but I can stand my ground...”

“Yes... You weren't hurt...”

“Well, I listened to you and took cover...”

Connor kissed him and then slowly raised “And I am happy you did... Come, I will have to check my ship and my crew...”

The Aquila had taken quite some blasts but was still operational, which could not be said about the Independence. Faulkner had the crazy idea that they could try to pull her with them and Connor was a bit lost at that announcement, leaning on the Aquila's railing and asking his first mate who was imitating his position still on-board of the Independence “How can we pull her? The Independence is bigger than the Aquila”

“Trust me Captain, it will work...”

“If you say so...”

Connor had not put his uniform back up and ignored the admiring gazes both his crew and the Independence's crew gave him. Faulkner pointed towards the bandages “How is your shoulder Captain?”

“Alright... Stings a little but that is normal”

Shaking his head, he chuckled amused “Next time duck”

Connor didn't comment that and started reading the Aquila for Faulkner's idea. The fact that the man was right and that they indeed managed to pull the other ship behind them amazed him. But then again, that meant they would be back on land sooner then he had planned. He dropped the anchor and yawned, Kanen'tó:kon smiling “You need rest my love”

“Yes, but first I want something to eat...”

“Then let's go and get you something”

They accompanied the crew and Faulkner to the tavern and ordered, finding a place outside and dining with only the chatter of the seagulls and the laughter echoing out of the tavern. Connor yawned again and stretched, making sure not to move his shoulder too much and mumbled “Sleepy...”

“Me too... Come... Let's get you back to your lady, my Captain”

Connor grinned and let Kanen'tó:kon pull him up and push him towards the Aquila. They went to their little realm of peace and he helped Connor disrobe before checking his shoulder and arm again “Try not to pull the stitches in your sleep”

“I won't, not when laying in your arms”

Kanen'tó:kon quickly undressed and then lay down, pulling Connor carefully in his arms “I will make sure of that...”

The next morning Connor overslept, something he seldom did, and only the banging sounds of the repairing woke him and made him frown “Don't want to move...”

“Then don't”, Kanen'tó:kon kissed him “You have all rights to stay here, in my arms”

“No, I don't... They are all working, I cannot stay here and be lazy”

“You were hurt, do you really think the other wounded men are up?”

“No, but they are more hurt than me...”

“You are of no use to anyone if you are tired”

Connor sighed but Kanen'tó:kon was right, he knew that “Maybe I can doze for a little while”

“Yes, you can...”

Connor snuggled closer and closed his eyes, soon softly snoring again. Kanen'tó:kon wrapped himself around his lover and was soon asleep again too. Faulkner woke them late afternoon “Hey, sleepyheads...”

“Sorry, I was very tired”

“No problem Captain...”

“I will come and help”

“You will not have to, the crew from the Independence helped us, their way of thanking us... Some of our men will help them in turn and we have a couple of days of rest...”

“What will we have to do next?”

“The Somerset has been giving anyone hard times, but for now no one has sighted her... I await her location, until then we can only wait...”

Kanen'tó:kon smiled “Good...”

“Yes... Our Captain can heal calmly, you make sure of that”

“Oh I will”

The next days were spent doing nothing, which made Connor a bit restless, not used to just do nothing besides cuddling in his lover's arms but nonetheless he enjoyed himself, laying on the beach watching Kanen'tó:kon fish. Kanen'tó:kon arrived back and dropped next to his lover, pointing towards his catch “All we need now is a fire...”

Connor wanted to get up and start it, but he kept him down “No... I will do it...”

“I can help”

“Yes, you can help and stay down”

“Kanééééééé”

“Blablabla...”

“You really do not have to learn such things from Faulkner”

“Blablabla... I like that, sounds funny...”

Spending a week on land had relaxed everyone, even Connor, who chuckled “Blablabla yourself...”

“How rude of you, Captain”, his head turned and he saw Faulkner grin at him “Faulkner, I had started missing you and your great vocabulary that has rubbed off on my lover”

“Life is made of learning and I am glad I can teach Kané some things... Listen, the Somerset has been seen not far from here...”

“Good, we will leave tomorrow at sunrise and take care of them... They have destroyed enough ships and need to be taken out”

“Yes... And then we should head back, or Achilles will be after my hind again... And you know the old man is a bit more dangerous than me...”

“He wouldn't... But you are right... Who knows what my father has done again...”

“You never know, maybe he was quiet...”

“I really hope so... Do you want to dine with us?”

“I would love to, but I have a willing lady that awaits me...”

“What about Amanda?”

“What Amanda does not know...”

Connor shook his head “I will never understand you...”

“Enjoy your fish and your lover Captain... I will tell the crew to stay away from here, you can do whatever you want...”

Connor blushed and lowered his head but Kanen'tó:kon added to his discomfort “Thank you Faulkner... I will make sure that we use our time alone adequately”

“You do that, our Captain needs some fun time”

“Oh stop it, both of you...”

Laughing, Faulkner walked back and Connor's eyes came to rest on his lover, who standing there in just some loincloth really looked appetizing. Kanen'tó:kon saw Connor's eyes darken and smirked “Like what you see, love?”

“Oh yes...”, he got up and joined him, pressing his body against him “The fish will take some time... And I feel like taking a dive... With you...”, he whispered, feeling strange to suddenly be able of adding such naughty and dirty things, but apparently not only Faulkner's vocabulary had rubbed off on his lover, but the carefree behaviour on him too “In you...”

“Hmmmm, yes... You in me is really something that needs to be taken into consideration”

Connor quickly was naked and they swam around each other, teasing and playing around. Kanen'tó:kon swam back to the shore and lay down in the shallow waters, motioning his lover over “Come... I need you now... Or I will go crazy...”

“You are already crazy Kané”

“Crazy for you Ratonhnhaké:ton , yes...”

Connor swam towards him and let a wave slide him on top of his lover, immediately catching his lips for a passionate kiss. Kanen'tó:kon's hands were busy caressing and scratching his lover's back, squeezing him closer and whispering “Take me now... Hard... Fast... Deep...”

Connor moaned “Need to prepare you Kané”

“Do it now... The water will help”, he bit his collarbone and let one hand slide deeper so he could grab his lover's hard cock and place him at his entrance “Now...”

Growling, Connor complied and sheathed himself in one powerful trust, loving the way Kanen'tó:kon's body arched beneath him. He usually was overly careful, but right now, his lover's scratching and dirty talk just rendered all brain-functions useless. And really, Kanen'tó:kon just brought him on the brink of his sanity with his moans, and that, added to the waves that rolled over them over and over again made them both not last very long. Kanen'tó:kon came first, screaming “Ratonhnhaké:ton” and reacted so violently, biting Connor's neck and clenching his cock that Connor howled and came hard too. He lay shivering on top of his lover and panted “You will kill me one day like this”

“Oh no, I hope not... Though it would be a nice way to die...”

Connor chuckled “Spending myself inside you would be a wonderful last memory of life...”

Turning his head and looking at their fire and the fish he pushed Connor off of him “If you stay like this, our diner will be ruined”

“Oh no, I need my energy back”

“Poor baby”

“Hey...”

Kanen'tó:kon took the fish out of the fire and patted his lap “Come here Ratonhnhaké:ton... I will feed you and make sure you have enough energy left for the rest of our night...”

Connor lay down and put his head on Kanen'tó:kon's lap, who started feeding him. They spent the night at the beach, waking up early and making their way back to the Aquila, where the first sailors were reading her “Ah Captain... Enjoyed our last night on this beautiful island”

“Yes... Are we ready to sail out?”

“As good as, we are only waiting for your first mate”, there was snickering among the crew and Connor stopped them “Please... I am sure you did not spent the night alone either, so do not mock him”

“We do not mock him... Aaaah, there he comes”, there was another wave of snickering and this time Kanen'tó:kon joined them, quickly shutting up when Connor's glare reached him too but not enough to switch to Mohawk and tease him “What? You came too... Multiple times”, he whispered “My beautiful Captain”

Connor shook his head “Impossible, all of you...”

They sailed out and by midday the Somerset was in sight. And another hour later she was no more and the Aquila was on her way up North. Sixteen days later Connor steered their ship back to their home harbour and smirked when he saw Achilles make his way over the pier “Old man... Missed us?”

“Wipe that grin off of your face Connor” and addressing Faulkner he frowned “What are you teaching him? Insolence and insubordination?”

“Yes... Don't forget bad language my friend...”

Connor walked off the Aquila “Anything happened during our absence?”

“Something always happens, but this time nothing bad... Norris finally worked up the courage to ask Myriam to marry him and apparently she said yes”

“Good for him...”

“Yes... It had become painful to watch him gravitate around her”

Faulkner clapped his hand “Well, a wedding is always a good reason to party...”, slapping both natives on their shoulders he grinned “When will you two marry?”

Connor shook his head “We are bonded... We do not need what you call a wedding”

“A pity, two parties are always better than one...”, turning towards the crew “Bring in the sails and then you can head to our beloved tavern”

Achilles shook his head and walked with Connor and Kanen'tó:kon back up to the manor, asking his Assassin's lover “Did you enjoy your first journey on the Aquila?”

“Yes... It was good to spend time with Ratonhnhaké:ton and the crew are nice people”

Achilles snorted “I am not sure I would call them nice people...”

Connor added “They are a bit wild, that is true...”

“Yes indeed... What will you two do now?”

Connor stretched “Rest a bit and then I will go and talk to Norris...”

“Father Timothy was looking for you”

“Then I will go and find him too later”

“You do that... Glad you are back unharmed”

Before Connor would signal Kanen'tó:kon to keep quiet his lover groaned “Well, he was hit though...”

“Anything bad?”

Connor shook his head, entering the manor “Nothing worth of mentioning”. He was looking forward to take a bath and then stretch in a bed that was bigger than his body.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally finished chapter 3, I hope you liked it :)

I kept the naval fighting to a minimum, too many ideas already :p

Now that they are back at the Homestead and I have a forth chapter in the works with the wedding and a fifth with Connor meeting his love at their village, how do you want me to continue after that?

AU or should I follow the game and have Connor eventually kill his lover? I can do both, as in "alternative ending" or just one...

Or I could write some oneshots, not related to the happenings in the game... Didn't think of that earlier ;)

Not OP but this story is too cute... but I would love to see multiple fluffy and angsty endings

Sorry for taking so long, Writer!Anon! Exams had me really busy, forgive me.

About the endings, I'd rather have you follow the game, I'd absolutely love it if you could find a way to explay just what made Kanen'to:kon turn against Connor, and what Lee told him.
Anyway I wouldn't really mind a fluffy, happy AU ending either.
So, I don't know, you could write multiples endings if it's not too much work, that's it.

Anyway, thanks a lot for the amazing fill, I loved part 3 and I can't wait to read more. I'll write you a more detailed review asap. :D
