Masterlist
Please be nice, english isn't my first language.
As long as you remember, he was always here, looking after you. From when you became an apprentice to when you were struggling to channel, he was here, cheering for you until you succeeded. The hours you spent training Warder/Aes Sedai fight coordination together? You can't even count them. After you falled from exhaustion, he carried you to your bed every time. He was your rock, your protection against the pressure of being the most powerful apprentice in centuries.
Today you become officially a Green Aes Sedai. You're with the other apprentices, ready to pass the ceremony and choose your Ajah. You've always admired the Green one. Powerful warrior women, ready to defend themselves but at the same time capable of trusting one or multiple Warders with their lives.
When the Amyrlin Seat calls you, you step forward. " What Ajah will guide your life, young one?" She asks. You know it's a very important decision but you don't hesitate
"The Green one" you answer. Then you receive your Aes Sedai ring, a green one for the Green Ajah.
The ceremony ends as usual, all the newly named Aes Sedai leaving the room. You find him there, waiting for you, with his usual dimple smile. " How was it, becoming an Aes Sedai ?" He asks " nice ring. So you chose the Green Ajah ? Good choice. Let's go get a drink to celebrate" he wraps his arm around your shoulders and together you leave the white tower to roam in the streets of Tar Valon, searching for a good inn.
You both get a beer and start chatting. After quite a time he finally dares ask the question burning on his lips " so now that you're a real Aes Sedai you can get a Warder, right ?"
You don't know what to answer to that " yes, why?".
"You know why. Because i want to be yours, your Warder, your protector. We promised we'd bond" he says, nonchalant but with a hint of vulnerability.
"It's not a light decision to take. You're sure?" Was all you could mumble.
" i want it, i want us, bonded, against the world."
" are you sure? Because there's no coming back from a bonding"
" i know, and i choose you, the most powerful Aes Sedai in centuries to be my bonded. Please, accept" he almost begs
The next day, you both meet the Green Ajah leader at dawn "Serenya Sedai! Can we get a minute with you? Please, it's important"
" sure, young people, i'm always open to help the young ones"
"we want to get bonded" Namjoon announces
"interesting, but not surprising" she answers " everybody in the White Tower can see how close you two are. You spare together, train together, have walks together. You're almost unseparable now. Anyone could've guessed you'd end up bonded" you both blush at this.
"so...can you...bond us?" Namjoon asks
"Are you sure you're accepting each other as a part of yourself, your other half? Are you ready to feel everything the other feels through this bond? Are you ready to die for the other?" The Green leader demand "because bonding isn't a thing to take lightly. It's can't be broken, and if one of you die it'll feel worse than death for the other. Are you ready for that? To go through that and through everything else together ? Forever?"
You both answer yes.
"You two are the hope of the Tower. For decades the number and power of the aspiring Aes Sedai declines. But you two, children, are the exception. Namjoon, i've rarely seen a Warder so skilled in all forms of combat and you, girl, you're probably the most powerful Aes Sedai of the last centuries. You potential is huge, don't waste it"
" thank you, Serenya Sedai. Your praises are touching"
" Of you're both sure of your choice then let's get you two bonded. Remember, the Warder is the Aes Sedai's shield, her haven. And the Aes Sedai must always treat her Warder as an equal. Together you must be one" she starts channeling, weaving an intricate pattern to bond your souls together forever. The light strings wrap around you, bringing you two together, making your souls interwine.
That's when you both feel it, each other, like a constant presence in your chests a buzz of energy, like a small ball of light. Weird, but soothing at the same time. You know it, it was the right choice. You look at each other and smile " now it's us, forever" Namjoon affirms
Over the next months you train, again and again, to become one with Namjoon. Coordinating fighting techniques, meditating together to work on the bond, you're almost always with him. So much time that you can't imagine being without him again. He's always there, always watching, always attentive if you need something. And you become dependant, of this man, your Warder, of his dragon eyes always ensuring you're well, of this constant presence in your chest: the bond.
Today you train with Maredin Sedai, a Sister of the Green Ajah. It's complicated, the point of this is to see who has the best channeling stamina. And since not a long time you you were still a novice, you lose. You collapse in the dust, exhausted.
He picks you up into his arms bridal style and carry you through the maze of corridor that is the White Tower.
" i'm not weak" you say, wanting to reassure yourself and look strong to him at the same time.
" i know" he simply answers. Only two words but a reassurance and proof of trust. And that's all it needs to comfort you. He knows you're strong, he doesn't regret the bond.
You feel so safe in his arms, always so seen and precious. It warms your heart.
Namjoon brings you to your bedroom and sits you on the bed. You're next to each other, knees almost touching. Your heart starts beating faster at the closeness. " You must think i'm silly" you say
" why would i think that of you?"
" you probably feel it through the bond, my feelings for you. I can't hide them" you lower your head "i know you probably don't feels the same at all but-"
He cuts you " hey, listen, it's not stupid." He reassure "look at me, i like you too"
" really?"
" yes. Can i kiss you?" He asks
You nod weakly.
He closes the space between you, leading the kiss. It starts gentle but grows passionate, messy. It's filled with longing and unsaid feeling. You finally feel whole, like you've always been meant to be with him. It feels right.
The things escalate quickly. He pushes you on your back on the bed and deepen the kiss. He starts grinding his hips on yours. You grip his shoulders for support.
As it's about to get further, someone knocks at the door " Alanna Sedai request you at her bedroom"
You and Namjoon move quickly away from each other, suddenly embarassed, as if the interuption popped the bubble of intimacy.
The next few days have been akward. None of you talked about the almost-fucked situationship. Of course you can both feel each other's emotions through the bond but it's still messy and complicated. You haven't been avoiding each other but the conversations aren't as fluid as they were. The sexual tension omnipresent.
" Namjoon it can't stay this way! We need to talk it off!" You complain
" what is there to say? That we kissed? That we almost slept together ?"
" yes! That's exactly what we need to talk about"
" and why should we?" He retorts " you regret?"
" no! But it's clearly affecting our bond!"
" i know, damnit! And it's killing me"
" then we have to fix it"
" yeah" he says, unsure
You take his hand and bring him to your bedroom " there's only one way to fix it: by finishing what we started"
" you mean..."
" yes"
He sits on the bed and pulls you on his lap, kissing you like his life depends on it. He then spread his legs so that you're straddling only one. He takes your hips in his strong hands and rocks your hips, making you grind on his thigh.
"It feels good, darling?"
" yes" You moan in his mouth as tu he kisses you. He keeps moving your hips for a few minutes more, making sure to put pressure on you clit every grind.
" i'm close" you whine
" go on, you can cum. I love you" he says, still kissing you
You take support on his shoulders as you come undone on his thigh, your moans of his name echoing in the room, your release soaking his uniform pants.
To soothe you he rubs your back gently and lay you on the bed. He then undresses you slowly, always making sure you're comfortable.
" it's embarassing if i'm the only one naked" you whisper
He smiles and undress immediatly, revealing his muscular body and honey skin. You bite your lower lip. But the real surprise comes when he takes off his pants. He's massive. Like very. For a moment you're scared. He feels it through the bond and immediatly reassure you " hey, it's okay, we don't have to do anything if you don't want to"
" i want to but...will it fit? I might hurt"
" i'll prep you well, don't worry" he's always so protective, so considerate and caring, it makes you internaly squeal in happiness. If he does feel it through the bond he doesn't mention it.
No sooner said than done, he preps you, stretching you with his fingers carefully and bringing you to a second orgasm until you're ready for him. He withdraw his fingers and kiss your forehead.
" it's time. Tell me if it hurts, i'll stop" he whispers in your ear. He pushes gently into you, stretching you. You wrap your arms around his neck. He pushes slow, inch by inch until he's fully sheathed inside you. You feel so full, like you're never been before. " Joon..." You moan "how can it feel so good?"
" it's probably because of the bond. Since we feel what each other feels then it's like we feel twice the pleasure." He suppose
He starts moving, starting with deep strokes before getting faster. He angles tentatively his hips until he finds the spot that makes you see stars. "Right here!" He smirk and start hitting this spot harder until you can only moan. "Shit, this pleasure amplification with the bond is really something else"
He kisses you deeply to muffle your moans so that nobody can hear. It feels so good, you can feel every stroke, every vein of his shaft. Your legs start to shake and your hips buck up into his, your gummy walls clenching around him "fuck! You feel so good" he groans
He picks up the pace and make sure to thrust directly to your spongy spot everytime, also rubbing circles on your clit until your moans are so loud that he has to put his hand on your mouth. You moan and whine his name desperatly as he brings you to the edge.
The bond makes your climax twice more powerful and pleasurable, you clench around him, milking his cock dry. You swear your vision went white for a moment. It triggers his own release. He grunts before slamming one last time into you and stilling deep inside to spill his hot seed.
He collapses onto you and burries his face in the crook of your neck. " I love you, my Aes Sedai"
" i love you too" you answer, stroking his muscular back and playing with his hair gently.
After few minutes he stands up from the bed and walk to the table, still naked. "Nice view" you tease him. He doesn't answer but his ears get red. He takes a carafe and a clothe. He wets the clothe and cleans you throughoutly. He even washes your face
" thank you, you're always so caring"
"always for you"
He then comes back in bed and wraps his arms around you in a protective embrace. You huddle into his chest and pull him in a kiss. You stay cuddling like that for almost an hour.
" i couldn't have dreamt of a better Warder"
"and me of a better Aes Sedai"
" i love you"
"i love you too"
chapter 2
This is my first fic ever so don't hesitate to make comments or give advices! Also tell me if you'd like moodboards for the characters or if you have requests!
Watercolor work of Lan and Moiraine (season 2 beach scene) made back in September
Hair is acrylic (and the gold piece is a specific material used for watercolor works) the rest is watercolor. Some pencil for details of the faces.
My original plan was to use the gold to imitate weaves (the ones we see in the beach scene) but alas it would not work on the blue watercolor. It was a mess. So instead I added some details on Lan's clothes. Because the man deserves all the glitter of this world.
Little bonus:
My roommate's cat, Milo, trying to steal the spotlight
Ive got my nitpicks with the amazon prime WoT show, but this season has definitely shown things are going in a good direction. They need to stop teasing me and show the Finn and give Mat his Ashandarei already, whether they are going to hang his ass for it or not, but otherwise most of my favorite aspects of the books have been handled really well. (Min is feeling like a bit of a fumble to me too, tbh) The Aes Sedai, the Aiel, Warder bonds, Tel'aran'rhiod, and so many other bits have been handled amazingly. Shohreh Aghdashloo was an amazing choice for Elaida, though I have a heavy bias from how much I loved her portrail of Chrisjen Avasarala in The Expanse adaptation. The White Cloaks too. Someone please give Abdul Salis an Emmy, cuz he will be Eamon Valda in my head forever more. Call my standards low (more than one person has), but I dont think enough people remember or had to experience 90s/2000s Sci-Fi Channel adaptations and the ever looming bogeyman of Red Eagle Productions. Changes were always going to happen when adapting a series with over a dozen books, and I think the team responsible for the current series has done a phenomenal job by any standard and far better than I expected when I heard Bezos got his grubby mitts on it.
