Heroes of Veritas: Bardic Inspiration (Book 2)

Chapter Six: Afternoon Delight

Astredian grinned back at Elise, backing quickly toward his quarters. She prowled after him, laughing lightly at the come-hither motion he made, curling two of his fingers before sliding them into his mouth and giving them a long suck.

“I missed you.” Elise says, pushing him back onto the bed. “You know that?”

“Mmm...I’m not sure words are going to be enough to prove that.” Astredian rumbled, pulling her forward to catch her lips with a quick kiss before he continued, “Maybe you should show me how much you missed me instead.”

“I’d be happy to, Commander.” Elise hummed softly as she straddled his lap. 

Her nimble fingers worked to unbuckle his belt and unbutton his pants. She leaned close to nibble on his ear, and seemed pleased at his reaction. His fingers had dug into the covers of the bed below them, and he shivered. His ears were very sensitive, and the way she was pressing herself against his growing bulge only made the rest of him more sensitive.

“I missed you too,” he breathed as the troubadour ran her tongue down the side of his neck, over the veins and tendons that were standing out. His adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed, and slid his hands along her thighs. He wasn’t normally a nervous sort, but it had been some time since they were last together, and his palms were just a bit sweaty with anticipation. Hopefully she wouldn’t notice; Elise tended to respond better to him when his confidence was on display.

“Lay back, relax,” Elise purred into Astredian’s ear, pressing her fingers lightly against his chest to encourage his cooperation.

Though she always said she liked it better when he was the one ordering her around, it seemed to Astredian that she liked being in charge just as well. Since he wasn’t entirely confident in his own master roleplay, he was quite happy to let her take the reins. He leaned back onto his elbows before reaching back to grab a pillow so he could prop himself up to watch her work. He loved watching her; to the point where having her around could easily become a distraction for him. It was why she didn’t keep a desk in his office, though they’d considered it so they could spend more time together. Besides, she wasn’t his secretary, and they didn’t want to give anyone the wrong impression by blending their workspaces together like that.

This was supposed to be a quickie, but Elise took her time getting him really revved up, placing delicate teasing kisses over his collarbone and down his chest. His abs tightened as she ran the tip over her tongue over them, and he gasped at the tingling sensation this left behind. Then she sat up, a little, and tugged his dark blue breeches down just enough to get at the prize. His d**k throbbed and sprung up as she pulled it free, and he moaned at the feel of her warm, callused little hand wrapping around his velvety length.

He grew fully hard as she gave him a few solid strokes - though it was the way she licked her sweet, pink lips that really did it for him. The sight of her bobbing down to take the tip of him into her mouth was the most erotic thing he’d seen in weeks, and he couldn’t help but reach out to grab at her hair when she started sucking. He wasn’t anywhere close to climax, but now that they’d gotten going he wanted to make the most of what little time they did have. Elise loved having her hair pulled, and hummed appreciatively at the way he tugged at her soft, winding brown curls.

“Yes, just like that…suck me harder.” Astredian grunted, which elicited just the response he was looking for. 

Elise took all of him down her throat, whimpering just a little as she fought against her gag reflex. He moaned at this, and tugged her hair again, a little harder this time. She bobbed up and down several more times before coming up for air, panting heavily.

She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, then stepped back from the bed so that she could pull off her tight, patterned leggings. Astredian’s d**k twitched in response, both at the coolness of his skin now that the heat of her mouth had left him and at the trail of slickness that came away from her mound as she pulled her panties down. Apparently, she was just as turned on as he was. It was always gratifying to know they were on the same page.

“I’ve been thinking about doing this all day…” Elise confessed, biting her bottom lip a little as she tossed the panties to the floor. Damn. It was even better to hear her say out loud what he’d been thinking himself.

“Then what are you waiting for?” Astredian asked with a smirk.

Wasting no more time, Elise straddled him again, and used one of her hands to guide the tip of his erection to her entrance. She hissed a little as she slowly impaled herself on his shaft, her hot, wet core stretching to accommodate his girth. Astredian put his hands on her hips, fingertips digging into her flesh a bit as he struggled to keep himself from bucking up into her like he was aching to do. Good Goddess, it felt so right being inside of her.

When she was fully seated, she leaned down to kiss him and ground her mound against him. He knew she’d gotten comfortable, so he pressed his hips up, thrusting hard and with an urgency that caused her to writhe and whimper on top of him. As soon as she parted from their kiss, she started riding him in earnest. He reached up to grasp one of her breasts as she bounced up and down, pinching her sensitive n****e between his thumb and the knuckle of his forefinger. She cried out in the most pleasing way when he twisted, and shook with the pleasurable beginnings of a small orgasm. When he reached down where their bodies met to rub his thumb against that little bundle of nerves that she’d been grinding against him earlier, it sent her right over the edge.

She moaned loud enough that whoever was probably now waiting outside his office probably heard it, but at the moment the guild commander couldn’t have cared less. In fact, the idea of someone hearing their passionate lovemaking only made him want to make her moan louder. He gripped her hips again and started thrusting up intently, extending her climax with the additional stimulation while also driving himself to his own release.

Astredian sat up, as he reached the end of his rope, and whispered fervently into her ear, “I’m going to fill you up just how you like, you dirty girl...”

A few moments later, with his last few thrusts, the paladin finished inside her just as he’d promised, pumping his hot seed deep hot, tight cunt. The way her walls rippled around him made it feel like she was trying to milk even more from him, even after he was spent. She kissed him, muffling her dying cries of pleasure against his soft lips as the nectar of their lovemaking leaked from the place where they were joined.

Minutes later, as Elise lay on top of him nuzzling her cheek against his chest, a hesitant knock sounded against Astredian’s locked office door.
