"Mother....I am not going to have this discussion with you again." Tarishiana practically yelled at the monitor in front of her. "I am not marrying Lestian." She said simply as she crossed her arms in an almost juvenile fashion.

"Listen to me Tarishiana." The voice of Diviana Barel came across the communication link. "I am not concerned with this...agreement that you had with Lestian." The smile on her face made Tarishiana's stomach knot. "Believe it or not my dear girl...this marriage has nothing to do with you or what you want."

Tarishiana raised her hand to silence her mother. "You can't force me Diviana. Neither you nor Dad can force me to do anything. What you can do is drive me from your life...You haven't even met Markum. He is wonderful and he loves me...which is more then I can say for Lestian."

As Markum was about to enter his and Tarishiana's quarters he felt a rush of frustration wash over him from Tarish. As the door slid open he called out telepathically, Imzadi? Are you alright my love?. As Markum walked into the main room he notice Tarish chatting with someone on the subspace relay.

Far from alright. Tarishiana thought as she half listened to her mother's tirade. "Diviana....Stop" She spoke at a volume that was uncommon for the mild mannered Betazoid. She looked at the shocked look on her mother's face before she continued. "I will not listen to anything else you have to say. My Imzadi has returned home and I am going to make him dinner and dessert"

Only a simple syllable was able to escape Diviana's lips before Tarishiana was able to cut off the feed. She let out a frustrated sigh followed by a scream of sorts. She ran her fingers though her hair pushing it back away from her face as she looked at Markum, "Sorry about that."

Markum walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her and gave a long, passionate kiss. The monster-in-law not happy with you, Imzadi? "She didn't look very happy, baby. Don't worry, my mother is a saint. Of course she has to be to handle all us kids she and Pop had."

Tarishiana nuzzled her face into the side of Markum's neck savoring his scent as she let out another breath. No more horrible then normal. She thought honestly. She placed a kiss on his cheek before lightly placing her hand on his cheek. "I promise to keep you away from them as long as possible." she grinned.

Markum loved how she felt in his arms. I survived the Dominion War, no thanks to a pain in the ass Second Officer, but I survived it. I've fought jem'Hadar, Borg, Romulans, even a few Klingons. I'm sure your mother will like me once she gets to know me. "and if all else fails, we send Willis to her. That'd be enough to drive anyone crazy." he finished aloud with a chuckle. I love you, Imzadi. I will meet her whenever you are ready for me to meet her.

Tarishiana smiled slightly as she gave him a kiss on his cheek before moving towards the replicator. Despite Markum's support she was more then a little ticked off. How could I have allowed myself to be lulled into a sense of security... She thought to herself almost as if she were unaware that Markum could hear her. She let out a sigh, I should have known better... She entered in the final command into the replicator and at the end of her thought slammed her palm against the display.

Markum walked towards his beloved, For eons, many parents have tried to force their will, and ideals onto their children. He put his large hands on her shoulders and turned her towards him gently. I lived under it with my father. You with your mother. Markum placed a hand on her cheek and kissed her tenderly. Then playfully bit her lip as he pulled away. Besides, we have our love. Together we can go through anything. Markum pushed her against the wall and playfully nibbled on her neck.

Tarishiana wrapped her arms around Markum's neck as she tipped her head to the side to allow him better access. "Mmmm...this is why I love you." She purred as her fingers tangled in his hair. She pulled him against her just as the ding from replicator rang out. Dinner is ready She thought with a contented grin. The pains of the days washed away.

Markum picked Tarish up and pushed her against the wall, "We can have dinner later. I'm interested in having my dessert first, Imzadi." he said with a raised eyebrow and a playful smile. I love you Tarishiana. I have never been happier, or more in love, than I am when I'm with you.

"You make it very hard to stay angry when you do that..." Tarishiana said softly as her lips brushed against his ears. She let out a little sigh. Having dessert first...sounds perfect.

I thought you'd agree with my logic, Imzadi. replied Quinn as he gave his beloved a long passionate kiss and he held her tight, not ever wanting to let her go.
