Eli sighed in relief as the warm water washed over him. He’d been in the shower for almost 20 minutes at this point, scrubbing his skin raw to get all the caked-on mud off. The bar of soap he’d been provided was already almost half-gone, and the water underneath his wrinkled toes was finally running clear. When he shut off the water he idly heard Aratessa humming while she moved about the luxurious suite the Raven Queen had given them to stay in.

  One which apparently has all manner of listening devices. He reminded himself as he stepped out of the shower and began to towel dry. Of both the magical and non-magical variety.

  A knock at the door broke him out of his thoughts. Peeking out of the bathroom into the plush bedroom he looked at Aratessa, raising one eyebrow as he did. “Are we expecting company?”

  “Actually, yes. I asked Vespera to bring us a few things once she was clean.”

  “Give me a minute then, I’ll get the door.” He replied. “We can’t be too careful.”

  She shook her head. “Eli, your retainers and my guards are outside – in addition to the Raven Queen’s own guards. I think it’s safe for me to open the door.”

  “She could be trying to double-cross us.” Eli countered.

  “If she was, then there’d be a lot easier ways for her to do it than to knock on our door. Now close the door – if Vespera sees you naked she’s likely to jump your bones, and I want you all to myself tonight.”

  Relenting, Eli closed the door. He listened for a moment to ensure it was indeed Vespera at the door, and that all was well. Relaxing slightly he finished towelling himself dry before belatedly realizing he’d forgotten to bring any clean clothes with him into the washroom. Wrapping the towel around his waist he called through the door.

  “Tessa?” He called, using his dark elven Queens’ nickname. “Is Vespera gone? I’m dry but my clothes are out there.”

  “Just a minute!” Aratessa and Vespera called in unison, making him immediately suspicious about what the pair had in store for him. “Why don’t you clean up that scruffy beard of yours a bit while you’re in there? There’s some razors in the suitcase.”

  Deciding to trust in them, Eli did as he was asked. After fishing shaving cream and a steel-bladed razor from his suitcase he wiped a section of the mirror clear of steam with his hand so he could see what he was doing. He was about to apply the foamy cream to his face when he heard muffled giggles from the other room – followed by the sounds of the bed creaking. Quashing his curiosity for a moment he quickly started the process of removing his 5-o-clock-shadow, leaving the skin on his face smooth.

  He'd just finished washing off the cream when he heard the door opening and closing, followed by Aratessa’s voice. “Okay, you can come in now!”

  Dabbing his skin dry he turned and opened the door to see the bedroom once more. The lights were dimmed now, but he could still clearly see the red-accented 4-poster bed dominating the middle of the room – one which was now blocked by sheer black silk curtains on each side, obfuscating the view beyond. His bare feet padded across the plush rug covering the cold stone floors, bringing him close enough to pull back the silk and peek inside.

  The sight that greeted him took his breath away.

  Aratessa was laying naked and face-up, propped up on the bed by several large pillows. Her hands were underneath her and legs were spread for him, exposing her glistening wet pussy – one that lacked a single strand of pubic hair. Her heels were pressed tightly against her hamstrings, bound in place by lengths of red silk rope. Another set of ropes looped behind each knee, anchoring themselves to somewhere underneath the bed.

  Eli dropped his towel as his eyes continued their quest upwards. More red rope framed her pussy, tied in spiderweb-like patterns around her soft stomach and anchored by steel rings. One of those metal accents sat on her solar plexus, giving another anchor for the rope to wind around her generous tits – framing them perfectly while exposing her nipples.

  His eyes traced her curves upwards to her neck – which was unsurprisingly surrounded by yet another length of red rope that made it look like a collar. He bit his lip and unconsciously climbed onto the bed as he moved towards her, drinking in her bound form. As he neared her she finally spoke, breaking the silence.

  “I see you like the view.” She remarked softly.

  He met her red eyes just in time to see her irises flick upwards from his now-exposed and hardening cock to meet his. For a moment he froze, admiring the pout on her ruby red lips while noticing for the first time that her white hair was the only part of her body that was unbound – falling freely down across her shoulders and over the pillows in waves. He matched her gaze and growled in response.

  “There’s a lot to like.”

  “Why don’t you show me what you like about it so much?” She purred.

  Grinning, Eli climbed on his hands and knees towards the tightly bound dark elven queen. Starting with her left foot he began to kiss the instep arch, causing her to squirm against her ropes to no avail. His lips quested upwards slowly to her ankle, then her calf. She let out a soft groan of lust when he dipped down to his elbows, allowing him to trace his fingers up her thighs gently while continuing his kisses upwards.

  “I didn’t know you were into this.” He murmured between kisses.

  “I’ve always wanted to try.” She said breathily as she lifted her head a fraction of an inch. “But…never trusted anyone enough to actually do it.”

  Realizing what she was implying he locked eyes with her for a moment before replying. “You’re safe.”

  “I know.” She nodded. “I want you to take control, for a bit. Just…no pain, okay?”

  “No pain, got it.”

  When he resumed his kisses her head fell back onto the pillows and her eyes rolled backwards. He delighted in the little sounds she made as he pressed his lips to the skin peeking between the rope bindings, taking care to kiss every inch he could while he travelled upwards. She moaned, exhaled, and giggled alternatively when his questing fingers tickled her, relishing his soft care in the face of her complete loss of control.

  Knowing they had all night Eli slowed down, switching legs several times. He repeated the process of kisses and caresses from the foot each time, causing her to groan in growing sexual frustration. The world around them fell away into a haze of luxurious sheets, silk barriers, and soft skin as he focused on teasing her to within an inch of her sanity.

  When his kisses reached the top of her thigh for what felt like the 100th time, he looked up at her and uttered a one-word command.

  “Beg.”

  “Make me.” She replied defiantly.

  He looked down at her hips – ones that she was subconsciously moving to get her soaking wet pussy closer to his lips. “Your body knows what it wants, Tessa.”

  “Fuck.” She swore before forcing her hips to stop, gritting her teeth as she did.

  Sensing her crumbling resolve, Eli went in for the kill. He brought his lips to within a hair’s breadth of her clit before blowing cool air across it, causing goosebumps to erupt across her dark skin. He looked back up at her to see that she was watching him through half-lidded eyes, her mouth hanging open.

  “I could do this all day, you know.” He teased, running the tips of his fingers up her thighs again. “How long do you think you’ll last before you-”

  “Fuck!” She cut him off, gritting her teeth. “Eli, I…”

  “Use your words.” He goaded her.

  “…please.” She said softly.

  With that invitation Eli extended his tongue, triggering a full-body shudder the moment it touched her. He ran it in a slow circle around her clit before flicking the tip of it upwards, causing her to inhale sharply. Beneath her voluptuous ass he saw her fingers flex and claw at the bed sheets – ones that were becoming increasingly wet. Seeing she was ready he wrapped one hand around one leg to steady her while bringing his other hand around, putting his index finger at her entrance.

  “Mine.” He growled to her as he slowly inserted his finger.

  After the excruciatingly long tease, the feeling of his finger inside her was enough to send Aratessa into the stratosphere. The velvet walls of her quim clamped around him as he curled the digit upwards, gently rubbing against her most sensitive spot. Her pussy dribbled juices onto the bed as she shook through her first orgasm of the night, her body unable to do anything but strain against her full-body immobilization. Just as the shuddering started to subside his tongue returned to her clit and he began to lap away while curling his finger over and over again, causing her to roll directly from her first orgasm into her second one.

  Start-to-finish, it took almost a full minute for her to beg him to stop, the sensations becoming too much to bear. Even afterwards though, it took almost a full 5 minutes for her body to fully stop shaking from the aftershocks of her monumental orgasm. By the time she was done her body was completely relaxed – unable and unwilling to move for the moment.

  “Holy shit.” She managed to croak out eventually.

  “Good?” He asked teasingly between kisses of her thighs and stomach.

  “The fucking best.” She replied, laying back with a contented smile. “Worth the wait to try this with someone that I…trust a lot.”

  Reading into her choice of words he smiled back. “I’ll do my best to honor that trust.”

  “Good.” Her grin turned feral as she gazed at his hard cock. “Now, I can’t be letting my man go unsatisfied. Want to fuck me until you cum in me?”

  Matching her grin, Eli moved to his knees and positioned himself between her legs. Knowing that she still wanted him to be in control he gripped the base of his cock with one hand and slowly rubbed it up and down against her pussy lips, causing her to shudder slightly. Her wetness coated his head, and the heat emanating from inside tested his resolve not to slip right in.

  “You were such a good girl.” He said softly, drawing out the last two words. “Cumming for me like that.”

  “Oh fuck.” She groaned. “Take me, now.”

  Eli shook his head. “I’m the one in control right now, remember?”

  Leaning over her, he wrapped his lips around one nipple while keeping his cock head positioned at her entrance. His teeth raked across the sensitive nub softly, followed up by his flicking tongue. Her hips bucked against him in a desperate move to take him inside but he backed off slightly, prolonging the tease a bit longer.

  “Mine.” He growled again as he released her nipple before kissing across to her other breast.

  “Oh fuck. Yes. I’m yours.” She whispered breathily, her hips still questing for his.

  Something about her words broke the dam of resolve in Eli. Without releasing her nipple from his mouth he pushed into her in one long, steady stroke. She bit her lip as he pushed deeper, crying out only when his hips met hers.

  Even though this wasn’t their first time together, to Eli her pussy still felt like heaven. From all his teasing it was already soaking wet, and it felt like her ridges molded perfectly around his cock as he stayed inside her for just a moment. He could feel her heartbeat inside her – perfectly in sync with the way that her muscles seemed to flex and massage him of their own volition.

  Locking eyes with her, he released her nipple and began to kiss upwards. When he reached her collarbone he slowly drew his hips backwards, only to thrust back in a moment later when his lips reached hers. They groaned into one another’s mouths and their kiss deepened when he repeated the motion, establishing a slow, heavy rhythm inside her.

  Even though he’d already hilted his cock in her, every thrust seemed to suck him deeper into her wonderful pussy. Her tight inner walls clamped around him as his hands explored her full curves, seemingly having developed a mind of their own. The fire of passion built inside them both as he pounded her into the bed – something that drew yet more moans of pleasure from Aratessa.

  After what might have been either an eternity or a single moment of pure bliss, Eli felt the familiar pressure building inside his body. He belatedly realized that he wasn’t immune to the effects of his own teasing – it had taken every ounce of self-control he had not to pounce on his bound dark elven queen the moment he saw her, and that control was coming undone now. His eyes went hazy with lust as the primal part of his brain took over, pushing him to thrust his hips faster to fill her perfect pussy with cum.

  Sensing the change in his motions Aratessa urged him on. “Fuck me Eli! Fuck me and cum in me!”

  That was all it took. She moaned while his hot cum pumped into her hungry pussy – a motion that caused her to shudder into her final orgasm. Her ruby lips parted as she let out a groan to match his own, her body doing its best to milk every drop from him. In that moment there was nothing that could have torn the two apart from their perfect, blissful point of connection – they were well and truly bound together.

  Feeling lightheaded from the force of the orgasm Eli collapsed onto Aratessa, his breathing ragged. The two of them stayed like that for several long moments before his cock slipped out of her, wet with their combined juices. With a final kiss he rolled to the side, locking eyes with her as he did.

  “Untie me?” She asked sweetly. “I’d like to be close to you, but these ropes make it hard.”

  “Couldn’t you just use shadow step to get out of the ropes?” He asked as he gently started to untie her.

  “No. Clothes come with me when I shadow step.” She replied sleepily.

  “I mean, I wouldn’t exactly call these clothes.” He joked with a grin. “But I get what you’re saying.”

  It took several more minutes of loosening and pulling the knots in the ropes before Aratessa was fully freed. Her legs collapsed the moment they weren’t being held up anymore, and based on the way she tried unsuccessfully to flex her arms Eli guessed they were feeling like jelly too. He chuckled for a moment only to see a pout reappear on her face.

  “Hey.” He said softly, scooping her up and placing her head on his chest. “Come here. Let me take care of you.”

  “Thank you.” She murmured, nuzzling her head against his chest as she closed her eyes. “I liked tonight.”

  “Me too.” He replied.

  “Yeah? I know I kinda sprang it on you.”

  “Feel free to spring that stuff on me anytime.” He responded cheekily. “I didn’t know I liked that, but I’m happy to explore new things with you.”

  “Good.” She said. “Because I have a lot of things I want to explore with you.”

  He tried to think of a romantic response, but after his intense orgasm it felt like his brain was wading through the mud from earlier. A few moments later his thought process was interrupted by Aratessa’s gentle snoring, her eyelids seemingly glued shut. Smiling to himself he kissed her on the top of her head and pulled her close to him before closing his own eyes and quickly falling asleep.
