Run away
Ashtons POV
Last night was hands down the best night of my life. I have never experienced that level of connection and pleasure with another person before. Only pure exhaustion made me stop. The feeling of being inside her was indescribable, like a drug I couldn’t get enough of. Normally I’d get bored of women, but not her. This wasn’t even just about the sex, I actually liked her as a person and wanted to make her happy.
I couldn’t really care less about the rescue mission now, if it was up to me I would have just run away with her, away from all the nonsense about no cross-species relationships and all my responsibilities. It wasn’t up to me though, she cared deeply about her friend and insisted on finding him. I am a little jealous, she really loves this man to risk so much for him, even if it is purely platonic. She was up and dressed before I woke up which was disappointing to say the least. I will do it though, for her, I will face whatever dangers lie ahead. I’m less concerned about the enemy and more concerned about my father, I can’t even bare to tell her who I am, she is so scared already. Admittedly I'm not sure how she will take it, she does not seem to like the royal family much and I have been lying about who I am.
After begrudgingly getting up and ready, we are on the trail again. I have been discussing how to control magic, but I refuse to let her practice in case it drains her strength.
“Will you teach me after we are back home?” She asks
“Maybe going home is not such a good idea, we can’t be like this there” I say quietly
“But we have to go back, where else would we go?” She says confused
“Anywhere, everywhere, it doesn’t matter if we are together” I’m actually a little embarrassed by my words, but I meant them.
She laughs “I guess that’s not a bad idea, its not exactly a plan though”
“So would you stay with me?” I ask feeling insecure.
She doesn’t look at me, shy all of a sudden “I’d like to.” My heart does a little flutter and I pull her into a gently kiss. She jumps up and wraps her legs around me and my gentleness turns quickly to desperate desire. I press her into a tree and grind against her. We hear noises and marching and I freeze. Before I know what is happening, everything goes dark. I drop Ava, freaking out in case someone has trapped us. Before I can get the flames in my hands she takes them in hers and calms me. As my eyes adjust I look around and see wood in a circle around us.
“Its ok, I think I did that, to hide us” she whispers.
My brain catches up, the blood actually returning to it after being rushed south by our kiss. I relax as I realise she has engulfed us in a tree, we are hidden and safe. “Can you see who it was?” I ask
“I can try” She touches the tree and her eyes close for a minute, her posture tenses and she seems on edge. I hold her trying to calm her down. Her eyes snap open.
“What did you see?” I ask
“Its him”
Ava’s POV
It can’t be him. He is dead. His lifeless body haunts my nightmares. I can’t breath, my body is trembling and my knees feel like they will give out at any moment. I see Ash talking, but I can’t hear anything over the pounding of my own heart. My legs start to buckle, but before I can fall, I feel his strong arms around me, keeping me up. His hand traces small circles around the small of my back and it starts to soothe me. I hear his gentle whispers encouraging me to breath deeply, I try to focus on that and his gentle strokes and I begin to focus again. Ash just holds me close and tight. His touch making me feel safe and keeping me sane.
“Was it the scouts?” He asks gently
I just shake my head
“Whoever it was, I will kill them, I will protect you. I promise” He sounds strong and confident, but I don’t feel like that.
“You can’t, it’s not safe” I barely whisper.
“Please explain what is going on?” he sounds frustrated, but he is trying to stay calm for me.
I just shake my head, I’m not even sure I understand it myself. He sighs and manoeuvres us to the ground, he sits and pulls me into his lap, never letting go of me fully. He kisses all along my neck and the little sparks that erupt on my skin bring back some of the life to me. A smile tugs at my lips despite my terror.
“That's better, I will keep you distracted if you keep smiling for me” He says.
I’m grateful for his comfort, but I doubt very much he can keep me that distracted. My brain is racing with worries and trying to piece together fractured memories. As I feel my face start to frown again with fear, I suddenly feel 2 fingers thrust inside me. I was so distracted that I didn’t even notice Ash pull down my pants. The sensation makes me moan and he clamps his other hand quickly over my mouth. A wicked smile spreads over his face. The lust filled glint in his eyes makes me wonder what he has planned.
“Don't make a sound” He whispers in my ear so sensually that I shiver.
He keeps his hand over my mouth and moves his over hand to rub my sensitive clit. Another moan escapes me and he stops rubbing me and slaps my ass. I gasp in shock and he slaps me again. This time I control myself and take deep breaths to help me stay quiet. He goes back to fingering my clit and he can feel how wet I have become. I feel his excitement as he gets hard and it presses against me thigh. His skilful fingers use my wetness to move harder and faster against my clit. I can feel myself building up and I scream in my head, not wanting to risk him stopping to slap me. I start to tremble as I build to my climax, but before I get there he flips me around so that I’m straddling him. I’m desperate for my release and I grind against his hard member through his trousers. He smoothly frees himself from his trousers and pushes himself inside me. I scream, unable to control it and he quickly kisses me to muffle the sound. Lifting me to smack my ass for the noise. It only turns me on more and I grind against him faster. There is no noise, except our skin slapping together and our heavy breathing. I feel him harden further inside me and I know he is close, I need to cum first. I move his hand back to keep rubbing my clit while riding his cock as hard as I can. I feel myself starting to cum and I let the beautiful feeling spasm through my body, I moan, but his tongue is so far down my throat that its barely audible. I feel his cum inside me, but instead of relaxing his grip on me, he pulls my tighter and closer into him. He kisses the top of my head and I feel so peaceful that I might fall asleep. We stay like that, holding each other for what feels like an eternity.
“As much as I would like to keep you here forever, we are going to have to leave this tree eventually.” He whispers.
I sigh, know he is right.
“Why don’t you try to explain and we can work out our next move?” He isn’t commanding, he is gentle, like he is worried his words might break me.
I take a deep breath “Ok, I will try”
