Juni smiled. "Good, we shall ride after dinner, Monsieurs." he said.
Once dinner was finished, Juni went to change into his riding clothes, pulling the heavy pin from his hair. He met the Baron and the Duke in the stables, his hair flowing down his back and around his face, as he pulled on his riding gloves.
"Pick any steed you wish, Monsieurs. They are all well trained." he said, looking at the males who were both staring at him like he had something on his face.

Not something on his face but more like something on his head. "You should keep you hair down more often dear Marquis. It's suits you." Amato said in appreciation, putting on his own riding gloves. "And I think I shall choose my own steed. Bred for war he was though the poor thing is much too sweet." He added with a gentle pat to Warrior's muzzle.

Juni nodded, the horse was quite the beauty. "He's quite a beauty. Is he an Arabian stallion?" he asked, as the Baron mounted one of Juni's horses named Gaspard. Juni himself mounted his black steed who he named Daredevil.
"Are you ready to ride, Monsiuers?"

"Right you are." Amato replied, though he had no idea if it was true or not as he mounted Warrior. "I am quite ready. I should be the one asking if you both are ready for the challenge." He grinned, clicking his horse into walking.

"Cocky are we?" the Baron quipped, straddling his steed.
Juni said nothing. "We shall race to the forrests and back. Is this agreeable, Monsiuers?" he asked.
"Yes, but how about a wager dear Monsiuer le Comte?" The Baron asked.
Juni arched a golden brow. "And the stakes, Monsiuer?'' he asked.
"A kiss from the fairest le Comte," the Baron grinned, looking directly at Juni.

Scowling, Amato accidentally on purpose bumped in horse into the Baron's. "Now, now Baron. No need to compromise Monsiuer le Comte's virtue." Not that he didn't think he could win, but Amato didn't like the idea of betting on his mate's kisses in the least.

Juni watched this with a raised brow. "And my reward?" he asked.
"Any favor you wish of me." the Baron smiled, ignoring the Duke.
Juni cocked his head. "I would watch my words Monsieur. They could be the kiss of death for you."
The Baron grinned. "I don't mind."

"I wouldn't mind either." Amato grumbled. "Since I for on do not wish for death," he said a little louder, "I bet my sword." The Zercan pulled the jewel encrusted sword from it's sheath, letting the sunlight catch it. He had made it himself and he had to admit that it was a lovely piece, even by his standards.

"So, I bet my kisses,you, Monsieur Baron bet a favor, and you Monsieur Duke bet your rather admirable sword. The bet is set. Although there will be two losers." he smirked.
"Prepare yourselves, men we ride at the mark." Juni said, motioning to the stable boy. He held up a cloth and dropped it and the horses were off.

Poor Warrior balked, confused, and pawed backwards nervously as the other two ran off. The Zercan soothed the horse and whispered something into his ear. After that, Warrior was off in a ground eating run, catching up with the others and easily overtaking the Baron.

Juni was in the lead, unbound hair flowing behind him as he bunked up and drove Daredevil faster.
The Baron sputtered, before driving his horse faster as well.

All Amato could think of was catching Juni. Gods, the male truly was the Jewel of France. He was so beautiful. The Zercan whispered once more into Warrior's ear and the horse pounded harder, close enough so that Amato could reach out his hand and touch Juni's golden hair.

Juni heard the pounding of Warrior's hooves and he sat up a bit in the saddle, patting the big beast on the neck. "Onwards, Devil. Push harder," he cooed to the beast, and Daredevil gained a wicked burst of speed. Juni smiling freely and beautifully in the summer sun.

Amato grinned anew. The chase was on! If only he was in cat form. He would easily catch his mate! However, not wanting to lose, he urged Warrior onward and the horse complied. He caught with daredevil until the horses were neck and neck.

The horses pounded harder and the two were neck annd neck as they reached the treeline. They brought the horses broadside to the forrests and the two turn corse back towards the Chateau, the poor Baron behind them quite a way.
