**Chapter 406: Rekindled Flames**
**Scene 1 – Nox and Ashara**
The private quarters aboard the *Sovereign* were sealed, the only light coming from the soft, pulsing glow of the fused holocron that still sat on a low table. Nox and Ashara stood facing each other, young bodies trembling with centuries of pent-up longing.
Ashara reached out first, her orange fingers brushing Nox's cheek. "Alim… I never thought I'd feel you again."
Nox pulled her close, crushing her against him. Their lips met in a desperate, hungry kiss — years of separation pouring out in a single moment. Ashara moaned into his mouth as his hands roamed her back, pulling her tighter. The Force around them crackled, violet lightning arcing between their skin where they touched.
"You're real," Nox whispered against her lips, voice rough. "You're here."
They stumbled toward the bed, clothes falling away in a frantic rush. Ashara's white montrals and lekku brushed Nox's shoulders as she pushed him down, straddling him. Her orange skin glowed with arousal, blue streaks standing out vividly.
Nox's hands explored her body — cupping her breasts, thumbs circling her nipples until she gasped. "I missed this… missed you so much."
Ashara rocked against him, feeling him harden beneath her. "Then take me. Remind me I'm yours."
He flipped them, pinning her beneath him. His mouth claimed hers again as he entered her in one deep thrust. Ashara cried out, legs wrapping around his waist. "Yes… Alim… harder!"
Their bodies moved together in perfect, desperate rhythm. The Force surged around them — lightning arcing across their skin, harmless but intense, heightening every touch. Violet sparks danced where they connected, sending jolts of pleasure through both of them.
Nox thrust deeper, faster, his hands gripping her hips. "You feel perfect… like you were made for me."
Ashara moaned loudly, nails digging into his back. "Don't stop… I'm so close… yes, right there!"
Her climax hit her hard, body arching as she cried out his name. The lightning flared brighter, wrapping around them both. Nox followed moments later, burying himself deep as he spilled inside her with a guttural groan.
They didn't stop.
Ashara pushed him onto his back, riding him with wild abandon. Her breasts bounced as she moved, moans filling the room. "I love you… I love you so much!"
Nox's hands roamed her body, one sliding between them to rub her clit. "Come for me again, love."
She did — screaming his name as another orgasm ripped through her. The Force lightning crackled louder, the room glowing with purple energy.
They changed positions again and again — Nox taking her from behind, Ashara on her knees, both of them lost in each other. Every thrust, every kiss, every spark of lightning was a reaffirmation of the love that had survived death itself.
Hours passed in a haze of pleasure and reunion. When they finally collapsed, spent and satisfied, Ashara curled against Nox's chest, tracing patterns on his skin.
"I thought I'd never have this again," she whispered.
Nox kissed her forehead. "Neither did I. But Dagon… he gave us this chance. We won't waste it."
**Scene 2 – Dagon's POV**
I stood outside their quarters, arms crossed, listening to the unmistakable sounds of reunion.
*I know I reunited them for their love… for a promise.*
But the heck — don't you guys ever sleep?
And stop the lightning.
I think they are louder than me and the girls ever were. That blue glow…
Still, it was a safety measure for them to be next to me in case of any Jedi inspections.
Wow. This is going to be a long travel.
I shook my head, a small smile tugging at my lips despite the exhaustion. The Force around their room was a storm of passion and healing — violet lightning arcing faintly even through the sealed door.
At least they were happy.
I turned and walked back toward the bridge, the sounds of their lovemaking fading behind me.
The war waited.
But for Nox and Ashara, tonight was theirs.
