“Go, enjoy your night, I’m sure there’s other things you want to do besides talk to me’’ Halsin’s soft smile radiated in the campfire light.
“On the contrary I was going to ask if you’d like to go for a walk? It’s been so long since I’ve had the chance to talk to another druid.. That wasn’t trying to perform a corrupted rite” Tav let out a small laugh, realizing she had been in the company of the druids of the grove for adequate time. What she really wanted was to spend some alone time with Halsin.
“Not in the mood for celebration? I don’t think anyone would argue that you’ve earned it but… I am in no place to deny my savior. Come, I know of a place.” Halsin gestured down the trail and Tav followed in step.
The two walked side by side, the further they got from the camp the quieter it became. Just what Tav needed.
“No, I cannot say I am in the mood to celebrate. It hardly feels like something worth celebrating. Don’t get me wrong, I would’ve done anything to save your Grove but… the goblin camp has left me with more questions than answers… not to mention my little tenant is not far from my mind,” Tav wrang her hands, her silvery locks falling into her face. A quick motion pushed the hair back behind a pointed ear. It wasn’t a lie. She was going to save the grove, and the tieflings, since the moment she stepped foot there. As a circle of the Moon druid, this is the longest she’s been around other druids. Typically they meet once in a while to trade information with each other in the moonlight. Then, she wouldn’t see another human let alone a druid for weeks on end.
“I’m sure you are in the mood to stretch your legs after the goblin business.” Tav offered, there was a time she couldn’t imagine what it was like to be caged. A time before the nautaloid ship.
Halsin let out a deep chuckle, “business is surely one way to put it. I thank you again, truly, for your aid in all of this’’
“There’s no need to thank me-”
“It must have been quite the shock to find our home, I know of your kind, and I know you don’t often see others.”
“Ever since the ship crashed I haven’t been shocked by much. How did you know I was a member of the circle of the moon?” She cocked an eyebrow.
“It’s in the eyes.” His steps stopped and he turned to Tav ”Yours hold a beastial fury… and it’s not every day a bear comes to my aid… Just some days”
Tav couldn’t help but laugh, perhaps to break eye contact, or perhaps Halsin was right. It must have been quite the sight to see a bear, white as moonlight itself, slash down his goblin captors.
They had been walking for a bit, deep, deep into the forest. Passing over fauna and little creatures until the trees gave way to a clearing. It was so still, the water untouched. The only sound that could be heard was of their feet crushing the grass beneath, and frogs and insects making their nightly music.
“Mmm it’s so beautiful here, who would have thought I’d see nature’s untouched beauty again. Do you know it’s all I thought of in that pod.” Tav hurried to the waters edge, kneeling beside it, taking a long gaze at her reflection before looking back toward Halsin. He wore a wide smile, as if surprised by her reaction. He stepped closer,
“Maybe even more than getting out… I thought i’d never feel this again” She let out a deep sigh as a heavy body found itself next to hers. “Thank you” she whispered in a voice only they could hear. So soft, as if it was the most precious of all secrets.
“A druid should always have a quiet moment with nature, to think, to remember, to feel. I come here to think often, it’s just far enough that no one would find me, but not so far I am out of reach.” A wistful look in his eye as he leans back on his arms and looks up to the night sky. The moon was almost as bright as the sun, bathing everything it touched in pale light.
“I can imagine you don’t get much time alone, being Archdruid and all”
“I do not regret it, but there are times I miss the freedom. I sure miss the lack of politics. Sure we druids can play them if they are needed, but such things are wastes of time.”
Tav turns, looking at him leaning back. He looked so at peace, a face of contentment that suited him well. She saw the wrinkles in his furrowed brow, she saw the far off looks he had, he yearned for something. She leans over him, searching his face. Her eyes found the curve of his lips, and soon her own lips did.
She kissed him, and he did not protest. He leaned into her just as much as she into him. An animalistic hunger on both of their tongues. A carnal need, primal. The kiss deepened and before long his tongue probed at hers, twirling and twisting, entangling them. Tav broke the kiss, her lips, already swollen from the archdruids eagerness. In a swift motion, she had climbed ontop of him. Straddling his wide hips, her hands found his broad, muscular shoulders. She traced the lines of his musculature around his armor with a finger. She bit the corner of her bottom lip as she peeled off his leafy pauldrons. He playfully tried to sit up, only to be stopped by her delicate hand that eased him back down onto his back.
“Remind me” her voice quiet. Her eyes searched his face once more, but not hungrily, something else altogether. Her white hair dangling down, pooling on his chest.
“Of what” his voice was hoarse, filled with lust and desire but also an undeniably softness.
“what it’s like to be alive” her voice trembled a bit, full of hesitant emotion. Something begging and pleading to be brought forth, to let spill.
Halsin said no words, a strong arm grabbed her waist and changed their positions. Her back laid against the grass gently as he enveloped her completely. His body was so close, flush against hers, a knee in between her legs keeping himself from crushing her completely. His lips came crashing down onto hers once again, her lips, her cheeks, her jawline, down her neck. He trailed and her hands tangled in his long, thick brown hair. She could take in his scent. He smelled of spiced herbs and nature, of dirt and sandalwood, of musk.
He leaned up for a moment, leaving her breathless beneath him. She shivered at the loss of his great heat that surrounded her . Belts and buckles, wraps and jerkin all fell to the ground with light thuds around them as he took his garb off. His bare , hairy chest finally illuminated by the moon. Tav couldn’t help but stare.. how could she not? The man was unquestionably handsome and built quite like a bear now that she thought about it. He did not give her long to think before he was on her again. Kissing, nipping. He pulled her linen top down to reveal a collarbone. One he wasted no time lavishing kisses upon, biting at the flesh.
As he did he moved to pull the shirt over her head. The shirt had no chance against his mighty grasp, now put to purpose. Her large breasts spilled forth, and the chilly nighttime air already hardened her tiny nipples to their peak. Her bare back to the grass, her open chest to the night sky, this is where she felt real, like a person truly living.
Halsin removed his knee from between her legs and began to unbutton them. He slid them off, inch by inch exposing her skin to the night. She gave a light shiver, she could not help it. He tossed them aside, uncaring where they landed. He froze. His eyes searched her elven form, greedily. Her tan, freckle dotted skin bathed in moonlight was a sight to behold, he looked at her like a deserted man finally finding water, like she wasn’t only something precious, but something he wanted, no, needed. Something he would have.
“Tav-“ his voice, even thicker than before.
Her hands traced his own pectorals, she found him utterly breathtaking. Her eyes darted down to the bulge beginning in his trousers, and her hands followed.
He grabbed them. He pinned her hands above her head with one hand. A thick root springing from the ground to tangle around them, holding them there. The other hand, finding a breast as his mouth collapsed onto the other.
She could not stop the moan that escaped from her mouth. His tongue lapped over and over the peaked nipple, hard as can be, he sucked and played with it in his mouth. Gently grazing his teeth over it, kissing, biting.
She did not notice how wet she must be getting until she found herself painfully aware of how she began grinding her hips against his leg. Desperate for some friction, some heat. Halsin did not seem to mind, continuing to play with her chest. He allowed one hand to escape his grasp and it immediately found itself in his hair once more. Pulling it, grasping at his scalp, begging him to be rougher, letting him know she wanted this deeply. His mouth trailed down her abdomen, peppering kisses as he went. His other hand now moving to a breast before they both also trailed her sides. Featherlight touches with his large calloused hands mixed with deep grabs that made her breath hitch.
He kissed and grabbed and teased until he reached the crop of white hair that rested above her slit. His hot breath on her made her shiver with need, And he instead trailed down her thighs, biting, grabbing, leaving love bites in his wake.
Tav grew restless at the teasing touches. “Please” she muttered breathlessly.
“Please what” he hummed as he didn’t lift his head from her thighs.
“Oak father preserve me …. please Halsin anything”
“You deny me life’s greatest pleasures” the vines unwrapped her hands, freeing them “taking my time with someone so beautiful” He stood once more, pulling his pants off of him.
His throbbing length bounced forward. For the moment, Tav perhaps wished she had been more patient. It was long, and thick, with a tuft of brown hair nestled at it’s base. She felt warmth creep up her cheek, was she suddenly embarrassed, shy? She couldn’t take her eyes off of him, or it. He gave it a long, slow stroke before going back to his knees before her.
“You don’t know the power you hold over me…. Since the moment I saw you I knew I could not deny you..” there was something beyond lust in his voice, something tav could not place.
He lined himself up with her entrance, rubbing the head of his cock up and down along her wet folds, coating it in her slick.
“The first time you saw me I was a bear” tav gasped through a bit lip, teasing him.
“The real you” he plunged himself into her to hilt.
Tav couldn’t help but yelp at the pain and pleasure all mixed together. His large form dwarfing her own. Large arms on either side of her head kept her from moving. Halsin brought his face down to the crook of her neck.
“I can feel how wet you are for me, mmm so warm” he whispers against the delicate skin. He kisses it gently as he begins to rock his hips.
She moaned as she felt her back arch, adjusting to his size. His thrusts become faster, deeper. One of his hands reaches down to play with the budding pearl above her entrance. His teeth digging into her neck, leaving marks she was sure would be there a while. Before she knew it his lips were on hers again as he crashed into her. The sounds of nature drowned out by the sound of his thrusts into her increasingly wet entrance.
He breaks their kiss but his hands and hips were unrelenting. He searched her face, drank in her soft features lolled in pleasure, the sounds she made as they met, again and again. She grasped at his back, clinging on as if for dead life, as if she were lost at sea and he was the only thing able to keep her afloat. Her nails dug into his flesh, clawing and scraping.
“Look at me” he whispered. Tav opened her emerald eyes, glazed over with lust. His face was right above hers. His forehead glistened with sweat and Tav’s hand gently held his cheek before brushing his hair behind his ear.
Her blinks were slow as she held his intense and deep gaze as he fucked into her. He found himself so completely lost in her, lost unlike anything he’s experienced before. She smelled of sage and rosemary, and sweat, their sweat the smell of sex undeniable in the air.
She couldn’t help but notice that he, for a moment, was somewhere else. With a swift gesture she pulled him over to the ground, climbing ontop of him.
“Is this the power of an Archdruid” she asked coyly, her hands trailing up his chest as she ground over his cock. She slipped off of it, nestling herself between his tree trunk legs.
“To so easily come undone” a long lick up the underside of his cock, her tongue lingering on its head before swirling around it. She could taste the precum that spilled from it, he tasted like he smelled. She gave the head a sloppy kiss before taking it into her mouth. Her tongue curled and twisted around the length as it slid further into her throat.
Halsin moans were gravely and deep as he grabbed a fistful of hair and pushed her down onto his cock a few more times before pulling her off completely.
He looked at her in bewilderment as a light laugh escaped her lips. She slinked back over him, a hand down between them stroking his length as she lined him up herself.
“Fuck you’re so big” she muttered as she slowly sat down, enveloping him.
She adjusted much quicker this time, getting used to his size. She rocked her hips slowly and began to bounce on the throbbing cock that was the source of her pleasure.
His hands dug into her hips as she bounced, his grip keeping her in place as he began to meet her bounces. Each thrust he fucked into her elicited the prettiest of moans. He watched her breasts bounce about as she bit down on her own finger, grabbing at her hair, her breasts, her body, feeling every rocking wave of pleasure.
Halsin pulled her forward, completely ontop of him as he raised his knees, angling himself to take away and leverage she had once had. He held her there against his chest as his cock thrusted in and out of her. She was a babbling mess of ecstasy.
“Come for me” he whispered in her ear, his hands digging into her round ass as he threw it up and down onto him.
“Halsin” she eeked out as she felt herself edging ever closer to climax. She picked her head up to lock eyes with him once more. She felt her face twist in response to her growing orgasm and she forced her lips back onto his. His thrusts were unrelenting, moans escaping his lips through their empassioned kiss. She bites at his lower lip. She feels it, the creating over the edge of pleasure. Crying out his name once more as she feels her abdominal muscles cramp and adjust. Finishing over his cock that does not cease.
All too soon she can feel herself cumming all over again. Gasps and moans are all she can fathom before he pulls out of her. He slips from under her, keeping her on her forearms and knees. “You wish to know the fortitude of an Archdruid…you wish to feel alive.. You will know this night, among nature and beneath the stars.” She felt her breath hitch as he entered her from behind.
She lost track of how many times she came before his seed finally filled her. Her head was in a daze and her limbs felt so weak, exhausted. Halsin pulled out of her slowly, the sudden feeling of being so.. Cold.. empty. It made her shiver despite how sweaty she was.
Halsin plopped down on the grass besides her, they both laid side by side looking up to the stars, spent. A large arm swept her up and pulled her flush against his side.
“I will come with you to Moonrise towers” he muttered “‘l’ll join your camp if you would have me.” not looking away from the nightsky.
Tav tilted her head to look up at his features, silhouetted. “After that, I can hardly say no.” she huffed out a laugh. She propped herself up on her elbow and pushed some hair off his forehead, stuck there by sweat.
He kissed her, not with hunger, or passion, but with sweetness. “To moonrise then”
Tav snuggled herself into the crook of his neck, warm in his embrace. “In the morning”
