CHAPTER 17 - REST AND ROMANCE
Artist is Leviathinh1 on twitter/x or whatever!!!
Max drove down the snowy streets to his home for only a few minutes. Sig and Sauer jumped into the back of his car before they laid down and waited for the trip to begin after Max dropped a bag behind the seats. Eli was confused as they rolled away from the house and went in the opposite direction of Jackson. Hours passed along with another small town before she asked him. “Max, where are we going? Wasn’t your place safe?”
“My home isn’t a secure location anymore. I have another place set up and I thought I’d never have to use it but here we are.” The snow covered road continued to twist and turn for minutes that stretched into hours. Valley roads began to creep into mountain passes as Eli continued to pick his brain about why he had a secret spot dug into the mountains of Wyoming.
“Wait, you own two properties? Doesn't that get to be really expensive?” Eli looked out to the mountains before absentmindedly opening the glove box and fishing out the bag of dried rat meat she stashed there earlier.
“It would if it was on the books…well my books. Large piece of land that's jointly owned by an old friend and the state of Idaho. Something about letting the state use it as a national park whilst allowing him to keep a small self-sustaining property stashed away in the mountain there. Go up every six months with Noah to make sure it’s still in good shape.” The travel was slow as they passed through snowy mountain passes. “When did you put that there by the way?”
Eli tried to keep her eyes from his as she flicked her tongue in the air savoring the flavor in her corner of the vehicle. “Uhm…about last week?” She took a large chunk and swallowed it whole before looking back at her partner. “You’re not mad, right?”
“I'm surprised you didn’t start sooner.” Max chuckled as his hand landed on her padded leg and let it rest there. “I hope that you’ll be comfortable tonight. I hope the water seals still work and the batteries are charged. If not, it still has a woodstove.”
Eli drops another large strand of rat jerky past her maw, teeth retracted into her jaws allowing the morsel to easily slide down her throat. “I’m sure it’ll be fine, if it’s anything like your home it’ll be really cozy.”
“You might be surprised. It’s actually nicer than my home.” Time slinked by as Max rolled his car onto an unmarked path. The sun setting below the mountain edges and dropping the temperature at least another ten degrees. “If the water seals held up at least.” Before Eli could inquire, they stopped before a cliff face and he exited the vehicle giving her a ‘wait just a moment,’ before exposing the large mouth of a cave hidden by a number of planks and camo netting caked in snow and ice. It was large enough to fit a midsize truck past the entrance where the opening had several channels made for water deviation before leading back to the entrance of the cave. “Don’t worry about the girls, they’ll ask to come in soon once they wear themselves out. They probably know the property better than I do.”
They scampered off into the treeline as Max hopped back in when the mouth of the abandoned mine was cleared enough to drive in. The mouth of the cave is just far enough to conceal the car once more as the net was dropped back in place. It sat on a flat concrete platform dug into the slope with anchor points into the floor of the cave to prevent it from disconnecting and sliding further in. It was dark and only got darker as Max covered the entrance once more. Eli stood in darkness for a moment as the cold air stilled her heart as her eyes couldn’t adjust to the dark. Fear gripped her core, as her childhood fear rushed up her spine. Her breathing was shallow and kept her feet locked in place as if they were frozen to the rough concrete pad. Childhood flashbacks of being lost and alone in the Wyoming wilderness rushed through her mind and broke down into tears calling for her father.
With a snap, a series of lights flashed on and those memories fell back into silence. Her mind slowed and tried to take in the scene before her before Max was back at her side. “Scales? Everything alright, you look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Eli shook her head trying to shake the nerves from her body. His new nickname for her surprised her and replaced those deep memories in her mind. “Uh yeah, I’m alright. Scales huh, think it’ll stick?”
Max shrugged before planting a light kiss on her cheek. “If you don’t hate it, then I think so.” He started walking her forward; deeper into the now lit cave system. “Are you sure you’re alright? You seemed really shaken there.”
“I’ll be fine, just not a fan of the dark.” Her stride lengthened as she found her strength so close to her affectionate lover. “Bad memories from a camping trip when I was young tend to stick with you when wild animals are involved.” The snarling beast in her mind fades as he holds her tighter and takes her hand in his. “I know it's stupid but it still haunts me when it gets dark out.”
“It’s alright love, it’s nothing to be ashamed about.” flipping up his sleeve on his left arm showed several old scars along his forearm telling of a harsh wound from prior years. “Young cougar mother got defensive when I was in my teen years on a camping trip with my dad. Hammered the point home of how effective firearms are. Doesn’t really matter in the long run, just know I understand how terrifying the dark can be.”
“You probably have more reason to be afraid in the dark than I do. Wait, what the hell is that?” Eli’s eyes were drawn to a desert brown pair of metal boxes welded together. Their wavy structure gave them away as shipping containers to be almost seamless in their conjunction. “What the…”
“Welcome to our little side project. A fully self sustaining home with plenty of supplies and security measures and comfortable sleeping. This is the fallback both Noah and I have been working on. Full electrical suite, heated water and most importantly long lasting food stores.” Max beamed with pride as he looked over the massive construct before deflating slightly. “That is if the batteries will retain a charge after being off for a month.”
“Wait hot water? From a wood stove or…”
“Electrical heater! The woodstove is a good backup just in case but either way yes we’ll have hot water, a warm meal and a soft bed to sleep in tonight. Sorry if we don't have anything specialized for washing scales. Really only have stuff for humans and canines.” Max slummed further as he remembered that he wasn't better prepared for this eventuality.
“I’m not too worried about that hun, this is just…stunning on its own.” There was a tone of longing in her voice like she was putting on a strong facade for her lover.
“Eli is everything alright? We’ve only been seeing each other for a little over a month now but you’ve clearly not really opened up to me. You’ve told me what happened with Trevor, but not why you’re really here. Not why you’re really stuck in Wyoming with several feet of snow outside. You can talk to me.” Max tried to reassure her by holding her close but that seemed to only make her retreat deeper into her shell.
“Max, I…” The words caught in her throat as she tried to speak. Max wasn’t sure if she was going to finally let that barrier come down between them or if she would stay guarded. “Not yet. I'm sorry Max but it’s just too…fresh? I don't know, even thinking about it stings.”
Max nods with a concerned look across his lips and brow. He wants to plead with her to open up. Desperate for her to feel comfortable enough to share her pain like he’s willing to share with her. At least most of his pain. Max let the thoughts of shared turmoil roll through his mind and only one answer: just give it time and be yourself. He agreed with the logical half of his mind and decided that he’d let some of his walls down for her. Show her something she wouldn’t expect. He moves to the front door with her in tow, holding it open for her, allowing her to enter the frigid abode. “Let me get the heat started, make yourself comfortable. There's decaf on the counter over there. You’ll know when you can brew when the lights come on.”
Eli was left alone for a few minutes with her thoughts and the pale light of a few low power emergency lamps illuminating the space. It was larger than his home but was clear that it was kept strictly utilitarian with stacked beds and handmade looking furnishings. A fine layer of dust sat atop the flat surfaces of the table, countertops and everywhere else. It felt empty to her like a college student had moved in and hadn’t been back since winter break. No television, computer or major appliances besides the woodstove, stacked beds, bookshelf full of survival books and large electrical control unit recessed into the wall. The lights snapped on and a moment later an electrical heater spun to life that Eli swarmed and shed her outer layers. Light clothing graced the warming air as she enjoyed the feel of the warmer air.
“Batteries must be dying in the set, I’ll see if I can charge them overnight.” A thought finally hit Eli and one of her lowered eyebrows raised, a look of contemplation resting on her face. Eli’s mind raced with thoughts of some of the mundane things she never really had to consider. ‘If we’re in a cave how are they able to produce electricity? Hell, where does the smoke go from the woodstove?’
A moment later Max passed the door shutting it behind him. “The water generator still works! That's certainly a surprise and it seemed like the batteries were still holding a charge too so we’ll be good for tonight with some warm water and dinner.” He dropped his own jacket and finally unholstered his pistol and placed the two next to the door before kicking off his boots. “So what first? Dinner or…”
Max’s eyes trailed over to a far door to the back of the secluded living space to what was obviously a recessed bathroom. Eli knew what she wanted. She was begging for some time alone with her partner and took even the smallest chance. She didn’t want to think of Trevor or what might be happening to Ian right now. She wanted time for just them. For her buried desire to finally let him be intimate with her. “Let’s do dinner first.”
Max nodded in agreement as he walked up behind her and let his hands rest on her hips before his stubble ridden face to kiss her scaled neck. “I can’t promise it’ll be good but I can promise it’ll be edible. Worse comes to worst we have some spirits to wash it down with.”
“When was the last time I had a drink?” Eli asked the question to no one in particular which Max didn’t answer. He simply held her closer and tightened the hug. “I think I’d like some drinks tonight…wait. Why do you have booze here and a water generator?”
Max shrugged as if it was the simplest conclusion to come to. “Keeps itself sterile, can sterilize other things, has a near infinite shelf life… Pretty easy to see why it’d be in a shelter for long term survival. As for the generator it's easier to just explain it as a mini hydro power plant. There’s three of them off a small natural spring that popped in before we moved in. Super useful and very fortunate for us.”
“I’ll say, I was about to freeze my tits off in here.” Max blinked at her crass language. The words seemed to be a surprise to even her as one hand covered her lips. “I…don’t know what came over me.”
Max simply rolled his eyes as he gave her another chaste kiss on the neck. “I do, you’ve been hanging around me too much.” He chucked as she turned in his grip to face him and let her tongue graze his cheek. “That tickles.” A warm smile spread across his lips before a mischievous spark lit up his eyes.
Eli was enjoying his scent one moment and the next a warm and wet trail made its way up her neck and to stop at her jaw. Her eyes snapped open and a harsh ‘ECH!’ escaped her as she recoiled from her partner’s tongue. “You licked me!” She was in a state of disbelief, she saw his warmer side when he was being romantic, his serious and devious sides as well. This however she could only describe as his ‘goofy side’.
“I’ll do it again.” That devilish smile spread, his straight teeth exposed as she realized he had locked her hips and her arms in a tight hug. She was stuck and he knew it.
Her eyes narrowed as she regarded her partner. “You wouldn’t dare.”
Her answer was another long lick on the softer under scales from the center of her neck and trailed to the center of her chin. A hushed scream escaped her lips just before she went limp in his arms, playing dead in his grasp with her tongue splayed out and eyes closed. “Eli you can’t play dead every time-” His words were cut short by the heavy weight of her tail coming into contact with the back of his knees and buckling them. Her weight proved too much combined with his surprise causing them to collapse into one of the cots next to the wall. When his surprise faded his voice joined her in a fit of giggles letting her body relax into his and her tail wrap around his right leg.
“I can and I will. I think I’ve earned it for not fainting the other night.” Her scaly lips met his cheek as he recalled that night. She was right, he wouldn’t be here if she didn’t. He agreed with a simple nod and another kiss on her cheek.
“Guess we’re even huh?”
An eyebrow raised on Eli’s face as she pulled back from Max, cold air slipping in between their melded forms. “For what?”
“When I pulled you from your car? We not keeping track of saving each now?” Max questioned his lover with a half smile. His joking tone was not missed by his better half.
“That’s dumb, you’re dumb for keeping track. We watch each other's backs right? So we won't sweat that kind of stuff.” The room had warmed enough for Eli in her lighter clothes to separate herself from her warm blooded partner “So…what's for dinner, because I could eat a horse.”
“If I remember correctly there's plenty of preserved Elk that should still be good so I was thinking of soup. Sure is soup weather.” Eli stops in her tracks of retrieving her Jacket and over-pants from the center of the room, locking eyes with Max.
“What the hell is soup weather?” He only chuckled before speaking.
“Hwat?”
-
Dishes were cleaned, dogs were sleeping, Eli’s jacket batteries were left charging and lights around them turned low with a radio pushing softer songs into the air. Providing a warm atmosphere while the couple shared a bottle of whiskey between them. Several pours had left the bottle nearly dry and the hognose woman was well past tipsy as Max just felt a little unsteady and warm. They had been speaking about embarrassing childhood stories where Eli wanted to be a princess well into highschool. While Max had let slip one of his more embarrassing talents. “You really think I don’t know how to dance?”
A skeptical look was tossed her boyfriend’s way as she took another sip of the acrid liquid. “I seriously call bullshit. Out of all the things you've done in the past, ballroom dancing is at the bottom of the believable list. Running through the woods, improvised explosives, firearms, swimming, wrestling…all of those make sense for your past, but ballroom dancing? Please, there's no way you got second in a regional competition.”
“Care if I prove you wrong?” A smug smile spread across his lips. “Because I know swing, rock step, salsa, tango, box step and even know a few line dances from my sister. I might be a little rusty but I still have some moves.”
Eli rolled her eyes as she rose from the bed rolls formed into a lounging pad. “Please be my guest, won’t be the first time my little casanova has surprised me.”
“So I’m little now?” He offered his hand that she took without hesitation rising to her full height to look down the few inches difference between them. His left hand rested on her hip, the exposed scales soaking up the heat offered to her. “Seems to me we’re both the right size for each other.” He pulled her in close, their bodies connecting in an intimate embrace before he started counting the rhythm in his head. He led her to step back with her right foot and seamlessly started a slow and passionate waltz in the small shipping container shelter.
Eli’s mind was completely blank as she looked at Max. This unassuming human had once again surprised her. Her mind was a mix of spinning from the alcohol and shock from another hidden talent he had sprung on her. Her heart hammered in her chest as her breath became shallow. Her mind was clouded by the liquor but one thought rang louder than the others swimming in her mind, ‘he’s the one’. There was no malice on his face as their bodies moved together the slow dance, only warm love and a sweet smile was offered to her.
She didn’t think of what she did next. She knew this man would be there for her, and would never ask her to do anything he wouldn’t. This was her moment. The big decision she would make for herself. Thus she made her move. Her tail wrapped around their waists holding them together even tighter, her arms wrapped around his neck and shoulders and brought their lips together. Their kisses previously had been passionate but this one was another level of love and devotion. She desired him, not as just a mate but as someone she could devote her heart to. Her life to him. Just like she knew he would for her.
“Max…” The moment their lips separated her eyes met his full of love and devotion. Her voice was low, barely above a whisper as she regarded him with a husky and desire filled tone. “I want-”
“You don't need to say it Eli. Let me get the lights-” He started to take a step away from her, ending the intimate dance. Unsure of how many songs had passed her grip loosed for only a moment before it tightened again and her feet pulled him towards the makeshift lounging bed. “Eli the lights.”
“No, I want to see you.”
“Do you really want the girls to watch us?” Max tossed a look over his shoulder to his dogs and their eyes locked onto him.
“Next time?” Max slipped from her grip and shed his shirt on the way to the far wall.
“Of course. In a real bed too.” The lights fell, leaving the two in soft dim lights of appliances and other items in the furnished shelter.
-
The lights fell, throwing the room into a low orange glow from the electric heater and wood stove crackling away in the center of the wall. Max turned to move back towards his scaly lover but was quickly stopped by her voice. “Wait, not yet!” Max froze in his tracks as he heard the shuffle of clothing from the far side of the room. He waited patiently as she worked in the dimly lit room. “Alright I'm ready!”
When he turned around Eli’s clothes were discarded besides the itchy flannel that normally adorned his form was half buttoned and draped over her shoulders. Cleavage on full display as her dark gray scales caught the dancing flames across the room. Max’s breath was caught in his throat as he took in her lounging form, barely kept decent by the lower flaps of his old red button up. A hand was extended to beacon him over to her side while her tail sliding effortlessly across the sheet. Attempting to hypnotize her partner absentmindedly. “This shirt is scratchy, why do you wear it all the time?”
Max chuckled before he cleared his throat with a cough, obviously caught off guard by the ludicrously sensual display from his partner. “I uh…holy shit.” He was frozen as she moved like liquid across the top of the full sized bed. Her dark glistening scales caught his eyes as the light fire danced across her form as she moved slightly. Her even breathing drew his eyes to her chest as it forced her chest to rise and fall. She cleared her throat forcing his attention back to her questioning eyes. “Oh right uhm…the shirt.” He took a breath and steadied his nerves and pulled on his shirt to bring in some cool fresh air. “I guess I'm just used to them as well as they're warm. What uh…what prompted this?”
Eli looked more confused before she rose from their shared bed for the night. Her hips swayed, hypnotizing her partner before she was on top of him. Arms wrapping around his neck before pulling him into a sensual kiss and his hands involuntarily met her trim waist to have her body be as close to his as possible. “Well lets just say that I feel the time is right. Plus the whiskey has loosened me up enough I don't think I’ll faint halfway through.” A soft giggle passed her lips before she continued. “You’re the right man for me. I wasn’t sure at first but everything you’ve done over the last month just screams reliability, caring and sweet. I can’t do better than you.” Her tone became more somber as she continued to speak, staring deeply into his eyes. “If anything I’m forcing you to settle for little ol me…Im sorry this was a mista-” She was stopped in her tracks by Max’s firm grip still resting on her waist. “Max stop, you deserve someone better than-”
Her protest was silenced again by his lips meeting hers. It had been so long since someone had desired him this way that he forgot how it felt. His chest was on fire, heart hammering into his ribs as he tried to communicate without words how she made him feel. Every ounce of passion he could muster he put into this kiss, every unspoken word and ‘I love you’ he ever said and will say was put into this one kiss. She melted in his arms and pressed deeper into his form. “You’re the most perfect woman I have and will ever meet. Please never say that I’m too good for you because I was thinking you were way out of my league.” His hand met her scaled cheek so his blue eyes met her ruby ones. “Let’s let tonight speak for itself and we’ll go from there. Like we have been.”
Eli gave a soft nod, a bright smile spreading across her face as her hands traveled down to the hem of his shirt. Layers were peeled off of him as they made their way back to the bed being their haven. He was down to his underwear as she fell back on the cushioned surface with a giggle. Her nethers now exposed to his eyes with her excitement on full display. “Is the big bad human going to keep his girl waiting?”
He slowly moved to his knees, her scaled thighs providing a pathway to her glistening sex for him. Her scent washed over him, it was something he always enjoyed when they were close but this was her essence concentrated to be almost overwhelming. His head spun as he began planting kisses down her thighs and halting any further comments from passing her lips. The lighter scales were so smooth that they felt like silk against his skin and devoured any semblance of heat that danced across her form. Gasps escaped her lips as he gave her quim a passionate kiss and her legs snapped around his head. Her fingers danced through his hair as he began truly showing the woman in front of him the smallest amount of how much he loves her. The hem of his shirt rose as Eli gripped the sheets above her and let herself enjoy the ministrations of her lover. Unknowingly exposing something to Max’s eyes.
He pulled back for a moment and let the details appear in the low light. “Eli, is that a tattoo?” Her heart sank, she was hoping for a better opportunity to show him before he was face first between her thighs.
“Scale stain, it was uh…supposed to be a surprise.” Her hands covered her face with her upturned snout peeking out past her hands. “It’s not permanent if that’s what you’re worried about.”
Max smiled as he looked at the pelvic marking before leaning up to place a kiss in the intricate lines and single heart. “You look just as gorgeous as the day I met you.” Another kiss met her mound leading to her gasping in pleasure again. “Even if you were in eighteen layers.” A chuckle passed both their lips for a moment before Max looked down to the stained scales on her toned stomach. “You look damn good with ink though.”
His lips met her scales again before spreading those delicate lips with his tongue. She moaned deeply as she he massaged her thighs and tasted her most intimate parts. He never knew he could be so turned on. To be so attracted to someone. In such a short amount of time to feel so deeply for her. Sultry breaths and heavy desire echoed off the walls as they fell deeper and deeper into the throes of passion. “Oh god Max, don't stop. Please keep going.”
Hushed words were shared, what her partner should do more. They would switch up, hands dancing across skin and scales. Constantly sharing words of pleasure and love. He kept her in the throes of pleasure with every lick, kiss and tender massage brought her closer to a new high no one else had made her feel before. She had exes before but those had occurred in high school because they boys were dared to ask out the ‘pissed off ugly girl’. Jessica had been there to comfort her after those harsh pangs of teen drama but now she had a man that by all accounts was head over heels for her. So she wasn’t going to let go as she was thrust over that edge and rolled in the throes of bliss. Her legs locked around her partner’s head and she screamed, “?????!” Her voice shook the walls and her body vibrated as Max continued to pleasure his woman.
Quickly his attention became far too much stimulation for the woman as she was coming down from that high, like scratching the same itch until you break the skin. “M-max! T-too much!” Her legs released their hold on the man off the edge of the bed bringing his face to look at hers with a worried look on his face. She was quick to dash that worry from him. “Goddess you didn’t need to do that, love.”
Whipping his face with his discarded undershirt he slid into bed with his partner giving a light chuckle. “Nonsense, I'll do that for you daily if you wish.” He cradled her face to feel the large scales that made up her adorable yet sexy appearance. The moment of bliss was broken as Max’s eyes shot open in shock as something grazed his crotch. It was Eli’s tail and her eyes had become lidded and sultry as she felt his heat and desire through the tin fabric of his boxers.
“Seems someone is a bit excited to share a bed tonight. No interruptions, no distractions. Just a human in the snake pit.” Max swallowed at her foreboding words and simply stayed quiet as her dexterous tail started to slide the last article of clothing from his form. His erection sprang free leaving Eli to gasp at his throbbing member. The surprise fell from her face a moment later leaving just confusion. “You only have one? Wait, why is it so big?”
Max just sat up slightly dumbfounded at her words, taking a moment to process what she had just said. “Well for one humans aren't diphallic and for two I'm only slightly above average as far as I'm aware.”
“Well you’re massive compared to snakes then because look at this thing!” She waved it back and forth in her grip tossing small strands of precum to and fro landing on the bed, Max and Eli’s exposed scales. He could only laugh at the absurdity of what was happening and kiss her cheek while she was still dumbfoundedly playing with his shaft. “How do humans and other anthros take something like this!?”
Another belly laugh left his lips as he covered his face in a mix of relief and lingering embarrassment. “Babe please you’re embarrassing me!”
“Fine, I'll prove it to you!” Eli slid on top of her lover and straddled his pelvis, his length sandwiched in between his stomach and her pussy. She rose and positioned the tip of his cock directly at her entrance. “Look! It’s way too bi-” Her sentence was cut off as he entered her, not by much since it was only half an inch entered her. She was shocked by how much she was being stretched, by how good it felt, by how WARM he is. Her muscles faltered for just a moment, causing her pelvis to meet his. The sudden changes of pressure and temperature threw her body into a state of pleasurable shock that caused her body to go ramrod stiff. Max wasn’t fairing much better due to her cool body and the tightness enveloping him. Her scales teased his skin and the temperature difference between them drove each other insane.
They were breathless as their bodies continued to adjust to one another and flexed to test each other’s limits. Throwing them into deeper levels of pleasure from new jolts of movement and exchanging heat. Eli was the first to speak but it was clearly in Russian, something Max would have to ask about later. Well if he could remember it after their minds returned. The first thing that returned to her mind was the feeling of heat welling up inside her, their hips embracing and their breaths mixing in the warm smoke tinged air. “M-max…Oh goddess…you feel perfect.”
He was fully sheathed in her and in retrospect he was. Not too big, not too long. Almost as if they were made for each other. Max was seeing stars as Eli began absentmindedly peeling off the last article of clothing that adorned her frame. Toned muscles and large pert breasts met her lover's eyes as her full body was shown to him. “Dear lord, I need to get you out of your clothes more often if it means I can see this masterpiece more.”
Her hips started rolling before rising slightly and planting them back on his with a soft plap. Both of their voices caught in their throats as the friction between them lit up their minds with pure desire and lust. Eli rose and fell again and again. Gaining speed as their bodies sang together in a symphony of pleasure as the sounds of sex echoed off the walls. Hands explored and massaged muscles and breasts as the scales and sinew beneath each others hands provided more of a sensory feast between the two. She fell to embrace him and he met her with open arms and equal thrusts to meet her frantic movements that desired only one thing. Him.
Minutes passed as the two continued to make love with more frantic and sloppy movements, lust clouding their minds that the only thing that mattered was driving the other over that edge. Max forced Eli onto her back, she in turn grazed his skin with her nails and wrapped her legs and tail around him driving him wild. Heated breath passed his lips where Eli’s form lapped it up frantically, seemingly always needing more than what he could give.
She was being greedy, she wanted more, more of him, more of his heat. MORE. Her maw split and her face lashed into his shoulder, needle like teeth sinking into his flesh and delivering a small amount of venom into his flesh. The moment it happened she snapped out of her loving trance, hypnotized by pleasure and lust. “Max oh my God I- I bit yo-AH!”
Her words didn’t register, the heat from the blood trickling down his shoulder were not as important as driving his woman mad with pleasure. She kept trying to speak but she was cut off with another mind melting thrust. There was no swelling, no pain, no anything from her lover. Her worried mind quickly fogged over in his ministrations allowing them to continue uninterrupted.
Desire was the only thing on their mind now. The dried blood passing off as another battle scar Eli hadn’t seen before, her stained scales a hidden secret that drove him more wild. Their love for one another that had been screaming at them to do this the first time they kissed. Moans and orgasms passed as easily as water moved down a river. Repressed desires finally being let out allowing for them to forge a new path for the both of them.
-
It had been hours since their tryst started and finally the two had slowed to simple cuddling, tired thrusts and whispered I love you’s passed their lips. The room was stuffy and smelled of desire as the last of the light faded from the woodstove. Finally allowing the two to pull a set of sheets over their bodies and drift to sleep together in each other’s arms.
