The Dragon & The Princess

Once upon a time in the not so enchanted forest of future, two mythical magical creatures languished in their respective surroundings of ancient domain.
The fierce, wild Dragon held court daily, barking out orders "Do as I demand or be doomed, then consumed by my fiery breath" The minion subservients around and about him, scurried to and fro in total deference to this odious being. No one had ever dared stand up to his egotistical self importance, let alone ask any questions or offer argument.
There would be occasional respite for these little Hobgoblins, as often, just before dusk of days end, the Dragon would wander off in amongst the knurled, spindly tree trunks and dank festering undergrowth, looking for a fresh source of amusement. He was becoming terribly bored with all the subservience. His giant ego definitely needed to be honed and polished elsewhere, so it was time to seek out pastures and victims anew.
Deep in the undergrowth of Forest Glen, lived a beautiful Princess, with wealth of smile to melt the hardest of hearts. Surrounded by an army of the most delicate, intricate butterflies, fluttering a plethora of stunning, vibrant colors in their wake.
Flitter, flutter all day long, they would dance around each other as moths to a flame. Theirs was a sensory, sensual existence complimented with harmonious sing song melodies, as the ethereal Princess gracefully danced of soft, rhythmic movement, humming melodic notes, constant, to accompany this artistry of pastime.
On this particularly fateful evening, as dusk descended and rendered the forest a mask of deep, dark, grey hues, the fearsome Dragon stumbled through a mass of tangled undergrowth, burning the same with force of flame. All of a sudden within the transcending glow of his fiery breathing, he saw the beautiful Princess dancing a short distance ahead. He was momentarily transfixed. Watching her dance sensually and delightfully in the reflection of his flame, with the appetizing smell of slightly singed feet, the Dragon thought "Yum, this one's tastier than the usual take away Princess. I could eat her all up now or save a snack bite for later."
Spotting this craggy, fiery creature in her eye line, the Princess sensed intent as the Dragon lasciviously rolled his eyes in wonder. She purposely intensified the rhythm of the dance, allowing all consumption in the here and now...The mesmerized Dragon was slain with salacious want of owning this stunning, sensual, delicate creature. He defied all natural instinct and moved closer to join her in the dance. Her head resting gently in the nape of his long, scaly neck, they swayed in tune, with the longing of pleasure, so wanting to belong to each other. A communion of souls divided and now joined in the artistry of dance.
The beautiful Princess brought a wealth of wisdom and grace to compliment the odorous Dragon's furiosity and a sprinkling of sparkling smiles to dance amongst the flame of eternal togetherness.
