Valerie kissed her hard. It took her by surprise and by the time Islinda had the sense to reciprocate, he pulled back and her head was spinning. Desire pooled in her lower belly and there was now an ache at her core.
He towered over her and she glanced up at him, the heat in his eyes stealing her breath away. It was no wonder Fae could not blend with humans because his beauty was devastating and there was that unnatural glow about him.
Humans would always be able to sense he wasn’t one of them. They were predators, the apex of the food chain and Islinda began to wonder what she was doing with one. Perhaps, she really desired death?
Valerie closed the space between them once more but he didn’t kiss her, instead, he let their breath mingle and she could sense his hesitation. He lowered his lips to her ear, causing goosebumps to erupt on her arms and said,
"You can stop this now. I’m not going to force you to do what you don’t want to or you are not ready for?"
He was giving her a way out.
But even as he spoke, his hot tongue licked a trail down to her collarbone and she sucked in a sharp breath. Valerie was also showing her what she would miss out on if she said no. Her pulse pounded in her ears as he ran his nose along the column of her neck and licked her skin.
The sensation shot straight to her core and Islinda arched her back, pressing herself harder into him. This is it, she wanted this as much as he did. Islinda was giving her virginity to him and may the gods help anyone that tries to interrupt them tonight.
Islinda did not give him a verbal answer, rather she reached out and caressed his pointed Fae ears. She knew that part of his body was extra sensitive from experience and he groaned into her neck, his grip on her waist tightening as he held her to him.
Their eyes met and Islinda declared, "I’m not going anywhere."
And with those words, she gave herself to him and Valerie took over.
He pressed his lips to hers and Islinda was prepared this time, matching each glide of his soft lips with fervor. It surprised her that she was capable of such passion, but Islinda guessed everything was possible when she met the right person. And Valerie was a good kisser, not that she had much experience with one, but quality spoke for itself.
Islinda moaned against his lips, his tongue tangling into her mouth while her hand tangled into his silky soft hair, and giving in to the heavenly sensation. She let him take the lead. The old mill was all stone walls and machinery and when Valerie began to walk with their lips still joined, she feared they would bump into one of the machines hard. Or worse, trip and fall in the dark.
However, Valerie proved her point that the Fae had sharpened senses because he had no problem seeing in the dark and she followed his lead. However, what stunned Islinda was when Valerie lifted his hand and an orb of light floated from his palm and illuminated the space.
Islinda had to break away from the kiss and stared at the light orb with a gasp of astonishment. It was amazing and magical. When she stared back at Valerie, it turns out that he was watching her with a pleased smile and Islinda suddenly felt shy, taking her gaze off.
The orb provided the only light in the room, casting a romantic glow around them and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the darkened look in his eyes. When their lips met this time, it was a clash of teeth and tongues. She let out a small contented sound as he tasted her thoroughly and his hands began to undress her.
Islinda was not a proper lady, neither had she attempted to be one, always preferring pants to the dresses her step sisters loved and spent all of their coins on. The dresses were not suitable for hunting and were damned restrictive with the damned corsets and all. Hence, it was not difficult for Valerie to undress her, and she was standing stark naked in a blink of an eye.
Islinda would have covered herself in shame if it wasn’t for the blatant way Valerie stared at her and the desire evident in his eyes. It gave her a boost of confidence and she stood tall, waiting for him to undress. And that he did.
When Valerie stood equally naked in front of her, she forgot how to breathe. The Fae was perfection; hard muscles and smooth skin. He had graceful curves. And when her gaze ventured further down to satisfy her curiosity, her eyes widened and she stared back at him with red face and mouth agape.
Valerie grinned at her, "Like what you see?"
Islinda had no idea what she had been expecting, but Valerie was no different from a man, perhaps better. She should admire his manhood, but the thought that came into her mind was, ’Is he about to stab her with that?’
And that was all the command he needed.
