You throw on your “at work” playlist and set to the ever growing list of emails you need to read and reply to. The rumble of drums helps you set your pace as you begin to go through the first email, words scrolling through your mind in time with the lyrics. The first one is simple enough to race through, a confirmation from the liaison of the Flaming Fists that the time and location for meeting next week is locked into place on their end. You nod to yourself and reply in kind, it was set as more of a brunch time frame by yourself at the usual tavern in the middle point between your two hqs. “That way if this meeting is as tiring as I think it’ll be I have the rest of the day to turn things around,” you think to yourself hitting send. The next few go much the same way as you start to get into an unsteady rhythm. You lose yourself in your music for a couple songs and it’s just like any normal day until you feel eyes on you, you look up to check on your tall brightly colored shadow to find her, suspiciously, looking anywhere else at that particular moment. You huff unamused and return to your work only to catch her eyes traveling down along your figure from your peripheral view a moment later. Your head snaps to the side to shoot her a glare that scares any coworker you use it on, at least it does normally, maybe it’s the bright pink reaching across your face as you try to ignore that this amazon was clearly checking you out or maybe it’s how a woman a foot shorter than her and light enough to throw with one arm is trying to be intimidating but Karlach just smiles knowingly and raises her hands placatingly before she turns toward the window and begins munching on a granola bar from your snack basket.
You sigh and crank the volume up like extra sound is able to stop you from catching the movement of her tail as it lazily sways and following up to the firm curve of her ass. Almost losing yourself to a day dream of squeezing it but managing to get yourself back on task hopefully without her noticing the shiver the ghost feeling you gave yourself. You wonder for a moment how sensitive her tail is, and how smooth it probably would feel to run your hand along it. You once again drag yourself away from your own thoughts and try to focus back in on work. Answering emails, arranging meetings, and putting out social fires you shouldn’t have to be dealing with if your uncle would just add any kind of field agent professionalism training.
“Hells I’d be happy with a thirty minute crash course on how not to insult high nobility clients while on the job, that’d cut down about half of these fucking issues,” you grumble out loud. It takes a moment before you realize Karlach had said something as she waves a hand to get your attention. “Hm? You say something?”
“Yeah,” she chuckles, “I asked what you said about somebody insulting the nobles in the field. Maybe I know the agent and can set ‘em straight.”
“Shit I said that out loud?” You groan in embarrassment. What was up with you today? Normally you’re a lot more in control and put together. She nods in affirmative to your semi-rhetorical question with a prompting look of curiosity. “Well if you must know my curious cat of a guardian it’s not just one person in the field, it’s a company-wide issue when it comes to those that actually go on these jobs. Mind you it’s not bad enough to permanently damage any of our reputation but it does get its own gift budget to smooth things over.”
“Oooh,” she nods in understanding. “Makes sense I suppose. Most guys in the field have the minds set of just getting the job done as efficient and safe as possible, manners are a second thought if even considered. What’s the other half of the ‘Fucking Issues’ you have to deal with?” She asks with a lopsided grin that makes your stomach flutter.
“The other half,” you clear your throat, “is their sons and daughters falling in love with the brave, strong, and stunning mercenaries sometimes to the point the noble find the two in bed the morning after the job or even on the road if it’s one of the better looking ones. We can tell them not to sleep with a client's family as much as we want but that won’t actually stop them if the two really want to. It doesn’t come back on the company either cuz the nobles don’t want to admit their kid was willingly part of it either so there’s no incentive for the boss to actually do anything about it. Though he sees it as part of the ‘merc life experience’ and not as a bad thing anyways.” You let out a long sigh as you do your best not to imagine you and Karlach in that kind of scenario and whisper, “can’t say I haven’t seen the appeal to it either at time.”
“Fancy a merc do ya ma’am?” Karlach teases and you freeze, too stunned to recognize the hopeful probing in the jab. “Sorry ta burst your bubble but that music’s loud enough I can hear the earbud you took out from here. Volume levels like that make you louder than you think you are when you talk to yourself.”
“I was just admitting I can see how some Of them would that’s all,” you retort. “Besides almost every merc I’ve ever seen or met had been a guy and I’m not into those so even if I did ‘fancy a merc’ I’d be hard pressed to meet one this close to home and work. I’m not lucky enough to meet one who’s into a noble heiress like me anyways if this week’s anything to go by.” You bluster the back half of your reply out hoping to sound more self assured and confident than you feel having to say it looking at a woman seemingly carved out of your dreams and favorite romance novels.
“Apologies Ms. Y/N I didn’t mean to set ya off there. I hope you find your last merc someday if that’s what you want. I’m sure she’d be the luckiest woman in the city,” there was an underlying heat in her words you missed being so consumed by your own thoughts and attempts to control yourself in front of her. You nod and murmur a thanks her way before popping your other ear bud back in and turning back to your computer.
“Dammit I couldn't even tell it or I had gotten that loud,” you think with somehow an annoyed tone towards yourself as you resume your work, “maybe music has become too much of a background thing for me to recognize my volumes? Switching to a book or podcast should change that! Don’t need them as loud to hold my attention and it’ll hopefully keep my focus off her more.” You close out the music app and open the audiobooks you have saved with a glimmer of hope that this will be the ticket to having a semi-normal rest of your work day.
That glimmer is quickly diminished as you pick up where you last left off from and realize the paused book you had been previously listening to was the recently released addition to your favorite wlw romance series. It worked to keep you from looking at her at least, though not in the way you were planning. The new chapter you stopped at begins with a soft breathy female voice narrating her love interest, a tall muscled orkish woman you recall, lifting her up onto her hips with a hard kiss as she carries her into bed with intentions to do anything but sleeping. It’s slow, firm but not rough, and almost painfully passionate. You position yourself with your back a bit more to hopefully hide your reactions both voluntary and not from Karlach who is at least pretending not to notice the change in body language. As the scene continues unrelentingly pouring erotic descriptions into your ears with husky voices and wet kisses in the background you can feel a damp patch forming in your panties. You shift your legs together a bit in an attempt to ease the aching need of your pussy with maddeningly little effect other than catching Karlach’s attention. You mentally curse yourself at your pitiful attempt at relief and that you, somebody who should be a bastion of professionalism, is seriously considering doing any kind of relieving not only at work but in your office with your gorgeous new bodyguard barely more than five feet away. The chapter continues anyways, heat and need further blossoming between your legs and you can’t think straight like this and decide to take a major risk. Slowly you try to appear adjusting your skirt while keeping one hand on the key board in an attempt to look like you're still working, the hand on the hem of your skirt sliding under it and up along your thighs ever so carefully to begin rubbing at your slick folds through the damp panties. You have to stifle a moan and blush fervently at how sensitive you feel and how this risk makes it feel so much more dangerous and gets you all the hotter.
“Uuhm you alright there boss? Need a bathroom break or somethin after this email string?” She asks with a hint of concern as she notices your odd little movements. You go still at the question, the lewd words still filling your ears as you try to form a response.
“Y-Yeah sorry,” you startle and remove your hand deciding to take the out she offered you, “I’ll be back in a sex- sec! Be back in a sec.” She giggles and raises a brow at your slip up before rising to her feet and striding over to the door.
“Well I’m ready when you are. I won’t come in with you for obvious reasons but I’ll have to wait outside the door at least. Sorry if it’s uncomfy but that doesn’t mean you should neglect your body’s needs,” She reminds you apologetically.
“It’s alright,” you sigh to mask you slowing your breathing to try and get your body under any kind of control. It doesn’t work, especially with this chapter still going on. “What is this author doing, trying to be the Tolkien of smut?!” You hiss to yourself as you try to rise with a minor wobble. The constant narration, descriptions, and sound effects begin to cloud your mind as you lean over your desk and send the last email before you can go take your “bathroom break”. Looking up after minimizing the window you catch Karlach’s lust filled gaze directly inline with your chest. You pretend to still be finishing up and test her by taking a long slow breath, letting your abundant cleavage rise with the swelling of your lungs. Karlach, not noticing you watching her reaction at the edge of your vision, bites her finger as heat and need further fill the look she’s giving you while her usual warm orange glow takes on a hint of barely perceptible blue.
You make a show of stretching as you stand and she quickly returns to a neutral pose though unable to keep the blue tint from her glow nor the heat from her gaze as you feel it rake along your figure. Striding over slowly like a stalking predator, the book’s scene and its character reaching climax, you stop just before her and look up into her eyes silently willing her to break before you inevitably do. Your close proximity and the hungry look in your eyes heats her engine enough that the warmth spilling off of her gets the ac across the room to kick on, and with that sudden noise the tension between you snaps along with any thought of self control.
Your lips crash into each other fiercely, your hands spearing through her mane in an attempt to pull you closer together somehow. Her arms wrapping around the small of your back in response and caging you against her warmth with a soft groan. You moan into the continued kiss as you feel her tongue slide in to taste your own, she tastes of cinnamon, dark chocolate, and a sinful bliss you’d never be able to name. You press for more, greedy to taste every inch of her you can as you trail more kisses down along her neck. Off balance from the frenzied harsh kisses Karlach lets you push her back against the wall to stabilize herself, somehow breathing hard already as you slide your thigh up between her legs and grind it slowly against her sex.
She makes a sharp inhale at the pressure before kissing you harder to muffle any sounds that would’ve further escaped her. You groan into the delicious heat and pressure as you slip one hand free from her hair and bring it down to begin unbuttoning her jacket, then her shirt. Finally your hand finds the hard scarred muscle underneath it all and a bolt of pleased electricity shoots along your spine as your lust drunk brain registers the feeling of her skin on yours. You begin smoothing your hand around the curve of her hip as your other cups the back of her neck, all you can think to do is press yourself against the strong figure of this perfect woman. Her own starting to explore your figure in return, every trailing touch leaving goose bumps in its wake as her pointed dark nails drag along your back.
You turn the two of you around and begin to guide her away from the wall, your top hand finally coming out of her hair and sliding down along and pushing against her exposed chest until it reaches the top button of her pants. The teasing touch along her waist snaps Karlach back to her senses for a brief moment, enough that she manages to break contact and stumble back until she bumps against your desk.
“W-Wait,” she holds up a hand panting, “we- we can’t do this. I, can’t do this.” You stop dead at her words. Is she rejecting you? Did you do something wrong? Was it a slip of judgement on her part and she’s already regretting things? As if sensing your anxious questions she shakes her head and continues. “It’s not that I don’t want to. Gods be good I wanna ride you until you see stars. But I can’t. Not only am I supposed to be guarding you and not fucking you as my boss’s right hand. But I was given strict instructions never to touch you unless it’s an emergency. Even if every fiber of me wants to give everything to you.”
Those anxious thoughts threatening to overwhelm you begin to fade back, while they weren’t enjoyable thoughts they’d somewhat distracted you from your lust and almost painful need for the goddess before you. Your eyes drag up her figure as she leans back on your desk, starting at the peak of dark hair above her waistband up along her scarred abs and over her heaving open chest now fully glowing blue up to her kiss swollen lips and hooded eyes filled with want. You stride over to her, silent and direct. Before she can fully protest you press a finger to her lips and kiss her neck, hard and long enough to leave the beginnings of a dark mark standing out on her bright red skin. She groans and leans into it, straining against herself as to not wrap you back up in her arms and never let go again. Slowly you raise your head to look at her, wicked excitement gleaming in your eyes as you think of a solution to your new dilemma.
“Can’t touch me huh? That’s fine, you don’t have to.” A grin spreads across your face as she looks at you with a hopeful but puzzled expression. “I prefer to do all the touching anyways. Now be a good girl and hop up on the desk. Oh, and make sure to cover that pretty mouth of yours. I’m taking my lunch break now and my meal shouldn't make too much noise.” You place a hand on her chest and feel the rumble of her mechanical heart as you begin to softly push her full onto the desk, her beautiful red and gold eyes half lidded but still locked on yours as she leans back and spreads her legs slightly, inviting you to do as you please.
“Good girl~,” you croon and begin trailing long, soft kisses starting from the purple mark you left on her neck and making your way down. Her breath hitches as your path crosses over her tit, you teasing her sensitive bud with a flick of the tongue. You hum happily at her stifled reaction and tease her once more for good measure before continuing down over her abs, leaving just as many teasing bites as you do kisses on the warm hard surface before finally bringing your head to rest on the inside of her thigh. You rest you hand over the button of her pants and look up with a subtle silent question to the woman, though you didn’t fully need to hear the pitiful little whine of “please” nor see it’s accompanying nod, you both knew once you started there was no going back rules be dammed. Her blue glow, the lust and need in her stifled whines as you made your way down, and the heat coming off her made for an intoxicating trio you couldn’t resist. In two smooth motions you free the buttons of her pants and slide them away with her briefs to expose her slick pussy, she sighs in relief as the cool office air hits her bare skin, at the same time you take a moment to admire in almost reverence at how delicious she looks at your mercy like this. You have to resist the urge to immediately take her in your mouth and try to make her loud enough the building knows this gorgeous plaything is all yours.
Instead you pull yourself back to some of your senses and decide to take things torturously slow. You begin kissing, nibbling, and marking every inch of skin between her strong thighs, reveling in the sharp breaths and soft rolling moans she can’t manage to hold onto. You give a couple scolding clicks of the tongue at her perceived lack of self control before you admit you can’t hold your own needs in check, with one hand you keep you legs spread wide enough to lick a long stripe up her heat, the taste of her exploding on your tongue as she shivers and clamps her free hand over her mouth to keep quiet. With your own free hand you fully pull up your skirt and begin to glide a pair of fingers over the molten heat behind your soaked panties. You groan at the self made pleasure, the soft vibrations traveling out of you as you take Karlach’s clit into your mouth as she gasps into her hand. Slowly you push your tongue into her slick folds, exploring every inch of her unbelievably hot pussy. Her hips rise in an attempt to force you deeper but you push them back down and pull back to tease her clit, eliciting a needy little whimper that doesn’t sound like it should’ve come from the mountain of a woman above you. Grinning wildly as you savor her you pull your underwear aside and slide a pair of fingers into yourself, pumping them in time with each thrust of your tongue. You don’t even try to suppress the ragged groan that throttles through you at the relief, gods the only way this could be better was if you replaced your hand with her face.
You begin to pick up your pace, savoring the jerks and twitches Karlach makes as you ravage her swollen clit. Chasing her orgasm with wild need you take your hand from her thigh and slide a pair of fingers in her as well. She bites back a cry of pleasure by chomping down on her hand hard enough that a seam of red begins welling along the line between her hand and teeth. It’s not long after you feel her shutter and her hips buck, her pussy clenching around your fingers as her juices pour down your throat and drip down your chin. It’s enough to send you over your own edge, white hot pleasure courses up through your body and you drink from her greedily to keep from making too much noise. The both of you ride out the waves of pleasure together on your fingers before going slack, her leaning hard on the hand bracing behind her and you panting contentedly as you lay your head against her strong bite covered thigh.
“F-Fuck ma’am that was,” she pauses to catch her breath and find the right words, “I can’t even-”
You hold up a finger to pause her, “shhh g-gimme a minute.” After a moment you sigh and you slowly pull your fingers out of yourself with a wet sucking sound followed by a small puddle forming under you. “Mmmfuck I needed that,” you half moaned, “you did so good for me little guardian~ and please. I think you earned the privilege of calling me Y/N.”
She blushes and nods, “you were amazing too Ms.Y/N.” You glare up at her expectantly and her blush deepens, “sorry Y/N old habits of the job.”
A breathy chuckle passes through your lips, “I suppose it’s excusable this time. But if I want any honorific you’ll be calling me mistress. Got it~?” You give her a teasing grin and slowly rise in unstable legs. She steadies you, strong and surprisingly gentle as she holds out her arm for you to hold onto.
“Got it…mistress,” the way she whispers the title sends a shiver down your spine which does nothing to help your lack of balance. “Shall we get you something to actually eat now? I can grab us some water too while you take a minute.”
You smile and fix your wardrobe, “Maybe split a pizza? Something easy to have delivered so you won’t be away for too long.” She nods and fixes her own suit, stepping up to the door. Pausing to square her shoulders and refind her professional swagger before heading outside to get those waters and call in the pizza, you still catch the slight shake in her legs though and it brings a wide satisfied smile to your face.

Announcement: This chapter has an accompanying art! 🩵
Just a friendly vtube water genasi tavern owner here to serve drinks, laughs,& stories! 20s, She/Her, queer, poly, and neurospicy🏳️⚧️🔞🇨🇦/🇺🇸
The first time you almost die is a scary accident, the second is terrifyingly shit luck, the third is when your uncle lends you his most trusted bodyguard because apparently his niece needs one more than he does as head of the company. You try to refuse at first, after all you can hire your own if you really have to but this was probably just a string of misfortune, accidents, and the worst luck. He still refuses to take no for an answer though and informs you that they’ll meet you at your office tomorrow morning. Begrudgingly you accept your fate of being babysat by some random jar head who’s probably going to report everything back to your loving but possibly a little overprotective uncle who happens to run one of the largest security firms on the sword coast.
You decide to go over your notes again before your meeting later this week. With your uncle out of town you, as his head of external relations, are left having to handle the semi-annual meeting with the head of your largest rival firm known as the flaming fists. Your two firms do this every so often to maintain a mutual agreement not to take on clients from each other’s designated territory. Until recently this was merely a formality, the now former leader of the Fists was an agreeable and respectable man named Ulder Ravengaurd. These days their new CEO, a weasel of a man called Enver Gortash. Has been taking any job and recruit that comes his way to the point the Fists are now seen as glorified thugs and mercenaries who need to be reminded, a little too gently in your opinion, to stay on their own turf.
“And we’ve gotta keep peace with this slime ball?” you mutter to yourself, “I’m all for not starting shit and needlessly overextending on resources but at what point does it change from avoiding unnecessarily challenging a rival to refusing to take out the trash?” You sigh thinking about the monumental amount of energy it’s gonna take you to play nice at this meeting on top of the probably gruff, nosey, and overall exhausting individual you’re going to be dealing with starting tomorrow morning. “The least uncle can do is make sure he knows how to be respectful and professional around me. I’d hate to put another of his men in the hospital moments before he gets fired for assault on a fellow employee and his charge. Not that he didn’t deserve it, I just don’t want to deal with all that paperwork again,” You explain to your empty kitchen while making some tea to help you fall asleep.
Slipping into bed nice and warmed by the tea and your pm meds you begin to drift off into a dreamless night not sure if you want the morning to come. “Maybe this one will at least be easy on the eye,” you mumble into your favorite plushie before it all goes dark.
The next morning you’re unceremoniously awoken by your phone ringing a few inches from your head, you swipe it open with bleary eyes and try to see what’s setting it off. The time shows it’ll be another half an hour until you normal morning alarm goes off and the caller ID shows your uncle’s calling you, you groan in mourning of your lost half hour before answering the call. “Suns not even up yet so somebody better be dying or our building on fire or some equally important emergency,” you grumble sleepily in greeting.
“Now I know it’s early over there but is that really how you say hello to your favorite uncle?” The man replies with a chuckle.
“You’re my only uncle,” You shoot back through a growing smirk, “but if it helps you’re my favorite of mum’s siblings.”
He barks a laugh, “and I’m the only one of those too my sharp tongued niece so I suppose both our points are moot.”
You sit up in bed and smooth down your sleep mussed hair with a soft chuckle. “So what’s this about? While I appreciate hearing from you and knowing from that your trip is going well this isn’t a normal time for a friendly call in either of our time zones.”
“Ah yes,” he huffs bemused, “Always so quick to business aren’t you my dear. Well if you must know I realized that you’ve got a bit of a drive from your home to the offices so I may have instructed Frankie and your new guard to pick you up instead. Oh! And I’d prefer you stay at my manor ‘til we’ve got this all sorted out. It’ll be much safer and I’m sure the cats will love having you around again. I’m sure you understand and will make the best of this whole situation. Good luck!” Before you can protest any of it he’s already hung up, leaving you who knows how long to get ready and pack before the car gets here.
“Wonderful,” you mutter and toss your phone down onto the bed next to you before forcing your body into motion. Pulling a couple large suitcases from your closet you set to packing a week's worth of casual and work clothes while getting dressed at the same time. Around an hour later as you finish packing and getting ready for work, just before you can reach your coffee maker, there’s a loud knock at your front door. You tuck your sidearm into the back of your pants just in case this visitor isn’t who you were expecting, keeping one hand behind your back in case you need a fast draw you crack the door and peer out at your guests. Standing on your doorstep is Frankie, your uncle’s long time personal driver, and towering next to him is one of the most gorgeous tiefling women you’ve ever seen holding a pair of coffee cups from your favorite breakfast spot. She’s almost a foot taller than you’re own height of 5’6, muscle bound frame and confident stance tell you she’s been in this field a while despite looking still in her mid to late 20s, her black on black suit and her red streaked raven hair with one and a half horns curling out of it highlight her bright red skin like a shining garnet stuck in stone. Her tail flicks subtly a bit as you open the door fully and she offers you one of the steaming cups like it was a peace offering to a hungry wolf.
“Hey Ms. Y/N. I’m Karlach, your new guard. The bossman asked me to watch your back while he;s out of town and this sich is getting taken care of,” the woman chirps kindly, “Frankie here filled me in on your usual order as a way to help us get off on the right foot since this was all kinda sprung on ya last minute.” You step in and to the side allowing the pair to enter your house, Frankie immediately sets to work bringing your bags and luggage out to the car while you and Karlach have a seat at your kitchen island.
“So what have you been told so far in regards to me and the situation as a whole? And are there any questions you have that I can answer here and now?” You wait patiently for her response and sip the warm liquid heaven she’d brought you, the vanilla and caramel caffeine spreading new alertness through your system as she begins to speak.
“Well,” she starts and takes a sip of her own drink, “All I was told is somebody took a couple shots at one of the higher ups over the past couple days and while it’s under investigation I’m supposed to that should whoever it is try again that they don’t even get as close as they did previously. I was told that due to previous experiences I shouldn’t lay a finger on you unless there’s no other option, I was chosen because you have expressed more comfort with femme presenting individuals even if they’re rare in this line of work, and that you’re very important to the boss both personally and professionally. The only questions I’ve got at the moment are how they’ve tried to get ya so far and are you as sweet as your coffee order?” She finishes the second question with a wink and a wry smile that heats the room you’re in, or maybe it’s just your face heating up. A squeak escapes when you try to reply, only making you blush harder in embarrassment, earning a laugh from the woman across from you.
You quickly clear your throat and try again, “Well the first attempt was when a bus deliberately ran a red light and almost got me crossing the street, the second was when somebody pushed a large glass plate window off the fifth floor of a construction site as I was solely walking by, and the third was the propane tank next to my favorite lunch spot exploding at the exact time I usually sit down for my work break. Thankfully I was running late that day due to an overly chatty coworker I bumped into on my way out. I guess it was on a remote timer rather than having somebody watch with a detonator otherwise that might’ve actually worked, I do like to keep my food schedule on a close routine when it comes to work. As for my drink order I’ll have you know it and my own sweetness are none of your concern as I’m not sharing it for you to taste.” She genuinely laughs at the disgruntled little huff you release with your final answer and it’s one of the most beautiful sounds you’ve heard somebody make around you let alone make because of you. You try to maintain your indignant heiress front but sigh and crack a smile at the last moment, “My coffee order isn’t that sweet is it?”
“You make it sound like I said sweetness like a bad thing,” she manages to get out through the last of her laughter, “though at that point you might as well caffeinate melted ice cream.” That comment breaks the last of your composure and laughter spills out of you, unrestrained and unfiltered. “Aww your laugh is so cute! The boss’s taken me all over for trips and meetings and errands how come I’ve never bumped into you before?”
“Ha! Probably because he’s much more of an all play no work kind of person if he can get away with it. While he’s off going to the fun meetings and adventures somebody has to handle the mountain of paperwork and follow up communications that has to get done with them. Work that he leaves for and ends up keeping me constantly in my office until I force myself to my lunch spot as a breather from it all. Barely any of which mind you was meant to be my job alone, the job of external comms head and his right hand aren’t the same and I keep telling him he needs to pick one for me to do and fill the other already.” You laugh again but it comes out forced and a little bitter, “Eight hells I need a vacation. And maybe a couple more sets of hands. Once this is all taken care of I think I’m gonna take one, maybe even to some place remote and tropical. Care to join me?”
“Before any kind of vacation happens you both have work to do,” Frankie interrupts from the entryway to the kitchen, “you with your meetings and her making sure you live through them. Now come along, the car is loaded and we all have things to do.” Karlach shrugs as if to silently say she guesses you two should go then, earning a barely suppressed giggle as you both stand and follow him out into the waiting black SUV.
On the ride there you couldn’t help but be painfully aware of how close you were to the amazon you just met earlier that morning, she smelled of woodsmoke, cinnamon, and heaven. “Y’know there’s a row of seats you could take across from me. You didn’t have to cram yourself in there,” you try to school your tone and hide how flustered her mere presence was seeming to get you. When she doesn’t move from her spot right up against you you let out an exasperated sigh and try to channel that nervous energy into the usual mask of no-nonsense business woman you use around the few coworkers you see. “Spirits give me patience, you're just like my childhood dog Sigurd,” you admit to yourself.
“Oh?” She cocks her head curiously, “Was it some guardian hell hound or something like that? Should I be flattered or insulted?”
“Not quite,” you smirk fondly at the memory, “she was this massive husky mix that despite being twice my size at that age was entirely convinced she was a lap dog. Anytime I sat somewhere she’d do her best to fold herself into my lap without a care for whatever I was doing or trying to watch.” As you recall the weight of your four legged friend when she sat on you the memories shift and you find yourself imagining the woman next to you in Sigurd’s place. Her strong thighs pressing in around your hips as she peers down at you, panting with half lidded eyes filled with need. The light blue collar Sigurd would wear around her neck attached to a short chain leash wrapped around your hand so you can pull her as close as you want. Your breath hitches a bit as you imagine pulling her down into a kiss, her lips tasting like the cherry lip balm you keep in your purse.
“You alright there ma’am?” Karlach’s voice snaps you out of your daydream and back to the car and confined seat you ended up in. She looks a little concerned and confused, “kinda spaced out lookin up at me there. Do I have something on my face?”
You shake your head clear of the thoughts and look away to hide the bright red no doubt engulfing your cheeks. “N-Nope all good I just spaced out there don’t worry about ,” you splutter and change seats to be sitting across from her. You’re not sure if she noticed anything but you kick yourself as you know you probably weren’t all that good at hiding your body’s reaction. She raises a brow in question towards your reaction and immediate seat change. “I just needed some space is all,” you try to reign in the squeak in your voice, “please don’t worry about me I’m all good.” She sighs heartily in acquiescence and you can’t help but peek at how her chest swells with the action. Before your thoughts can pull you into another inappropriate line of thoughts and daydreams the SUV pulls into an underground parking garage and the divider slides away.
“We’re here Ms.Y/N,” Frankie calls back, “I shall be here when it’s time to take you home. Until then Ms. Cliffgate and I are under instructions to make sure you stay safely here. Anything you need can be gotten by a runner or delivered.”
“Never thought I’d be happy to arrive at work knowing how much paperwork is awaiting me,” you think to yourself and gather your belongings up. “Understood I suppose. Thanks for the ride Frankie and I guess we’ll see you later,” you reply to him and Karlach steps out of the vehicle and waits patiently for you to follow. You hop out before reaching back in to grab your bow empty coffee cup to throw away, it’s only responsible to take care of it.
The two of you head up to your office in silence. Karlach playing the strong and silent guardian to intimidating levels while you just didn’t really feel like conversing with the other zombies in the elevator who’s caffeine hadn’t kicked in yet. Approaching your office at the end of the hall you push your door open to reveal the spacious but cluttered room you spend your entire workday in. There was a new small stack of papers on your desk you dread having to go through, “Please let them have at least put them in some kind of order.”
Taking your seat you gesture to a small table to the side of you with a couple chairs, “feel free to take a seat and help yourself to the snack box there. I know you probably can’t do much as you have to ‘gaurd me’ and all so maybe at least have a snack to break up the monotony as you need.” You fish your earbud case from your purse and queue up your comfort playlist, “wave if you need my attention for anything alright? I probably won't hear you or anyone else unless they yell while these are going.” She nods in understanding and takes a seat on the table and peers out the wall of windows overlooking the Waterdeep skyline though you swear you catch her looking over you every so often with more than the usual body guard assessing eyes as you begin your work. Oh well, it’s probably all in your head.
Taking a little break from “Investigations of the Heart” but don’t worry. Doesn’t mean I’m stepping back in general. Just starting a new one🩵 don’t have a title yet but it’s for Karlach❤️🔥
CW: this is a spicy chapter! (And my first attempt at one too so please don’t be too mean🩵) Things include fingering, ice play, restraints, oral, marking, and some light D/S themes

Total word count: ~7.3
Eager and obedient you begin to carry her back down the hall to her room, neither of you seeming to have the ability to take your mouth off the other. About halfway there one of your hands finds it’s way to the front of her shirt and begins to unbutton it, exposing more of warm silk soft skin for you to greedily taste like a woman who’s been starved her whole life. Nipping around the swell of her chest coaxes another soft moan from Neve as she tightens her legs around your waist and grinds against your stomach. Her hands slip through your hair and grip it tight before pulling your head back to look up and taking a heated kiss that has you leaning against the doorframe for balance. One of her hands slides from your hair and down to push against your chest in an effort to make you keep moving you can’t help but follow, only making it a few steps back before falling onto the bed with her now straddling you with a hungry look in her eyes.
As she shrugs off her shirt you find yourself mesmerized by every shallow curve and inch of smooth skin being bathed in the golden light of the sun. Reaching out you rest your hands on her waist and slowly slide them up along her sides, stopping to cup her breasts and begin to tease their stiff buds dragging a groan out of her as she leans forward to bite at your neck hard enough to mark.
“Mm this body is mine now Trouble,” she sighs and pulls your shirt open to trail more dark marks along your neck, chest, and stomach. “You’re ok with that right? Belonging to me is such a privilege~” You nod, back arching with every proof of ownership she leaves on you until she pauses at the top of your pants. “I need you to use your words baby,” she clarifies and places a kiss on your waist, “especially before I leave you unable to use that pretty mouth of yours to speak.”
“Y-Yes,” it almost comes out of you in a whine, “my body is yours Neve.” She smiles and slowly slides off everything else you had on at once exposing your soaked pussy and kisses just above it to tease you. Her soft lips pressing close to your heat make you shift to try and get her mouth just a little lower.
“That’s a good girl,” she teases and presses you down by your hips, “and don’t worry, I’ll get to that soon enough. But first I’ve got to do one little thing” The devious look that she gives would be worrying were you not too focused grinding on her thigh for relief. Leaning over you she takes both wrists in one hand and pins them above your head before burying her face in your neck to nip and kiss. Her free hand begins to slide up and tease your sensitive breasts, coaxing out another moan as you try and reach to take hold of something. It’s then you feel something cold begin to form around your hands and realize Neve’s frozen them above your head. “There we go, now all you have to do is lay there and look pretty while I enjoy taking you apart~.”
You twist and squirm against your cold restraints to no avail earning only an amused chuckle from the woman now kneeling between your thighs. She eyes your unmarred legs greedily before leaning in to trail hungry marking bites and kisses starting at each knee and following the inside of your thighs as she slowly, finally, pushes two of her fingers in your slick needy folds. You let out breathy moan as she begins to pump those fingers in a smooth slow practiced motion and she teases your sensitive clit with her tongue. Your back arches off the bed and you’d wrap your legs around her head had she not been holding them open with her free hand, it’s been too long since you’ve had anyone down there other than yourself and Neve certainly knew what she was doing.
She begins curling her two fingers inside you and adds a third to stretch you out, making stars dance in your eyes as your thighs begin to shake on their own accord. “Getting so close already?” She asks in that teasing tone of hers, “let’s see if we can’t cool this heat and drag you out longer.” You couldn’t ask how even if you wanted before you feel her pressing a small piece of ice up against your clit. The shock of cold as her fingers go still rips a gasp from your lungs as you try to recoil away only to be held firmly in place by two more blocks of ice now encasing your feet as well. “Shhh relax pet,” she croons and slides her bare chest up along your body to lavish your sensitive nipples in her mouth as her fingers begin to slide along the inside of you once again.
You whimper and feel the building of pressure getting too much to hold in as she picks up her pace and rubs the melting ice into the inside of your thigh in slow circles. Nipping and sucking your boobs hungrily as she grinds against the hand inside you like it was her strap and orders you, “Go on, come apart for me~”
Unable and unwilling to defy her, you let go. Shaking thighs tensing as you cry out and tighten on her still pumping fingers, riding out the crashing waves of your climax. “Suuuch a good girl,” she whispers in reassurance with maybe a bit of awe in her voice, “you did so good for me baby.” She slowly pulls out of you and cleans her fingers one by one, savoring your sweet pussy juices like they were even better than the finest wine. “I shouldn’t get to indulge in this just on my own,” she smirks before leaning down and kissing you, the taste of yourself lingering on her tongue as you devour each other’s mouths. She lets out a satisfied hum as she pulls away, a line of spit or maybe cum trailing thinly between you for a moment. Straddling your stomach she reaches over and releases the ice holding you in place and letting you go limp underneath her as she then shifts to your side and pulls you into her arms.
“Everything ok Trouble? Feeling good?” She asks quietly, stroking your hair and holding you close. You manage a nod and weak little whimper of receding bliss before burying your face in her chest and sighing contentedly. “Mmm I’m glad you seem to have had as good a time as I did,” she continues and plans a soft kiss on the top of your head, “take your time coming back to me Trouble, no need to push that kind mind of yours and strain your gorgeous body. You looked so good coming apart on me, I’d give the world up on a job if that’s what it takes to see again.” She couldn’t see the blush covering your face at her kind yet heated words, you’d probably do the same for a repeat of the last 24 hours if not more.
You try to answer but the exertion catching up with you is too much still, words fail and it's all you can do to get a giddy contented hum out and try to burrow further into her like a needy puppy. “Aww you're so cute,” she laughs and pets you, “just relax now and let things come back on their own. And don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere until you’re ready.” You nod again in understanding and try to slowly restart your body and mind to a functional level, the pressure of her body against yours and mind touches becoming an anchor for you to slowly work off of.

The sun filtering through the curtains stirs you from a deep dreamless slumber. Groaning sleepily you shift away from the warm rays between the most comfortable sheets you’ve ever felt in your life. It’s strange though, you don’t remember ever having silk sheets let alone a bed this plush. Then it all hits you like last night's runaway cart; memories of your date with Neve, the chase through the city, drinking two bottles of wine between the two of you, the taste of Neve’s mouth on your own with her in your lap, and the mother of all headaches to prove none of it was a dream. A louder groan of pain escapes past your lips as you try to open your eyes and prop yourself up on your elbows. It’s a little fuzzy and way too bright nut you can just make Neve’s blurry figure out in the doorway with what might be a mug and a cup but you aren’t quite sure. She walks over and kneels down next to the bed before speaking softly with the most kindness and care you’ve heard in a while.
“Morning Trouble, figured you’d feel pretty rough this morning so I brought you some water and a couple meds to help ease the hangover. Take your time getting up ok? There’s no need to push yourself, you’re more than welcome in my room and neither of us have any plans today to rush off to.” She sets the glass on the end table next to you along with the meds before heading back towards the door, “If you need anything I’ll just be down the hall to the right in my study ok?”
You give a small nod of understanding and she turns the corner out of sight, the sound of her prosthetic fading down the hall as you close your eyes and begin to try gathering your scattered thoughts. After taking a moment to still your head you take another to still your fluttering heart. Not only did she come to check on you at the first couple sounds, and bring you water with some pain killers, And offer further care should you need anything, but she let you sleep in her room! You normally have a tendency to spread out in your sleep and she didn’t seem like somebody who’d been prodded or hit with an errant limb in the middle of the night so she probably slept elsewhere. You have to make this up to her somehow, especially if things continued after that kiss only for you to go and steal her bed for yourself.
You feel the heat of a blush returning and quickly down the water and meds to hopefully cool off at least a little internally. Sitting up with your back leaning against the headboard you let out a sigh, “Spirits girl, what are we gonna do for this angel of a woman you’ve gotten us entangled with? Clearly the detective gig pays pretty well so even if the tips are good for a solid week she doesn’t need the coin as thanks, that and there’s not enough money in the realms to equate the worth of last night’s adventure.” Then an idea hits, it works as both a show of gratitude and something you want to do for both of your safety. You stumble a bit getting to your feet and have to brace yourself on the bed post as the room spins at a nauseating angle. Closing your eyes and taking a couple slow breaths the room and your stomach eventually begin to settle down enough for you to function so long as you don’t go whipping your head around.
Your post drunken work night habits kick in and without thinking you lace up your pants that’re at the end of the bed and throw on the nearest shirt, it’s a loose fitting buttoned shirt with a deep V leading down to your sternum to give off a view you can’t help but admire in the nearby wall mirror for a moment. The scent of Neve’s perfume drifts up into your senses as you adjust the shirt’s collar and you can’t help but let out a happy little hum. You think for a second that you accidentally nabbed one of her shirts but you figure with how close the two of you got last night that some just clung to you, after all she probably has like a hamper or something for her clothes and wouldn’t have left a shirt on the floor by your pants. Heading down the hall you peer into her study to find her leaning over a cluttered table she uses as a desk, one hand is still grasping the mug as the other sifts through an arrangement of newspapers in front of her.
Knocking lightly on the doorframe you startle her away from the pages with an almost spill of the dark coffee in her mug. She looks up and raises her brow in questioning appreciation, “If I knew you’d look that good in my clothes I would’ve laid out an entire outfit for you. Or did you just want the shirt from last night’s escapades specifically?” She grins teasingly as her eyes linger on the view of your chest nearly falling out of her shirt’s open upper half. Blushing you quickly tug it a little closer to try and somewhat hide your ample chest but only manage to make it worse but squishing them together.
“I-I’m so sorry!” You Splutter as you turn bright red, “I was moving without thinking and didn’t realize the shirt was yours and tried to look less like I was showing off but made it worse and and I can go change of course I didn’t mean to look like we did anything last night or if we did that it meant anything unless you wanted it to and…”
In your spiraling thoughts and flustered rambling you don’t notice Neve set down her drink and stride over with a kind yet slightly bemused look about her. She cups your chin in her hand and gently brushes a thumb across your lips to quiet you down. Your mind stills at her touch, the warm pad of her thumb pressing against your mouth acting as silent instruction that she’s talking now and you’re going to be good and listen to every word.
“Shhh it’s alright, you’re alright, everything’s ok,” she half whispers in a low soothing tone, “Regardless of meaning to or not I’m in no way bothered by you wearing my shirt, if anything I’d say it’s a good look on you.” The little compliment from her sends a small buzz of pride through you and brings a smile out to press into her touch, all you can really think of in this moment is Neve and doing whatever she asks of you next. “Now I’m gonna let you speak but just focus on one thing to start with ok Trouble?” She slowly removes her hand from your face and you have to suppress a whine at the sudden loss of her warmth.
“Ok. Alright. Just one thing to start with,” you mutter to yourself. Looking into Neve’s rich brown eyes and find nothing but kindness and patience looking back in contrast to the anxious and flustered look you assume resides in you. “So, uhm, I don’t remember much or really anything after we got up off the couch last night,” you pause to collect your next words with determination, “Did we…continue anything? Like after that point? Next thing I can remember is waking up in your bed earlier today.”
“We didn’t,” she chuckles and steps a bit closer, her perfume filling your head again. “You were slurring about me being too far gone to consent and that was so sweet of you. I had just dropped my shirt with my back turned to you sitting on the bed and by the time I turned around you’d already fallen asleep.” You blush in embarrassment which only seems to amuse her more as she presses in closer, her warm breath ghosting along your neck making your heart rate pick up and your arms act on their own and wrap around her waist.
“W-Well I’m not drunkenly falling asleep now and you seem in condition to consent,” you slowly start giving yourself over to your need for her and find your flirt again. “That looks like your second mug of the morning so maybe it’s time to take a break from your current case and relax a moment.”
“And where would you suggest we do that?” she smirks and slowly presses you back against the door, placing a long soft kiss against your neck and drawing the inside of her leg up along yours making heat pool in your belly. You sigh into her and run your hands down her back, ass, and thighs to hook behind her knees, lifting her up as she wraps her legs around your hips.
“Got a spot in mind, Miss Gallus?” You ask between kisses along her deliciously soft collar bone, “or would you like me to clear some space off your desk?”
She moans and pushes her hands through your hair. “Take me back to the bed,” she orders breathlessly, “Now~”

• Karlach goes all out on celebrations and festivals for the entire month. Back to back packed weekends filled with shows, parades, and any gathering she hears about. Of course dragging you along the entire time with the biggest grin on her face
• Her outfits can barely be considered actual clothes whenever you two are at an event. Cut off a quarter down her thighs shorts, a rainbow bikini top, and painted pride flags on each cheek (one is general pride the other is Bi)
• If you thought she was outwardly affectionate before it’s cranked up to 11 now. Always hugging you and picking you up, drowning you in compliments and declarations of love/affection, even when you’re trying to walk somewhere or just simply go out to dinner she’ll wrap her tail around the closest part of you she can with a little hum of satisfaction that she still gets to touch you
• Despite her overall jovial mood through the month she will absolutely fight any protestor that comes to spoil the day for people. Normally it’s just arguing and intimidating them but once one hurls an insult or gods forbid an actual object anywhere near you she flies into her trademark barbarian rage and all but kills the attacker in the name of “self defense”
Aria:
• Aria doesn’t go out to different events during pride but instead sets up a different pride event every weekend in her club for people to enjoy. Always the first one being more “family friendly” and set before normal opening hours while the last weekend is usually some level of explicit. Her favorite was when it was celebrating the connections between the queer and kink community so she could show you off as her pet
• Her show of pride is a little subtle at times. Usually changing the colors or her outfit to match her pansexual pride colors. Though if you take her out to an event that she’ll go further and temporarily paint her crest in the colors and use a cloak in the progressive pride design
• Her affectionate side does show a bit more in public during the month. She always has you around when she goes out but now she’s more showing you off almost. Rather than just staying near you she’s always holding you somehow; be it your hand in hers, or an arm around your waist, or even carrying you home after you had too many drinks trying to keep up with her
• Aria whenever asked about you will answer how proud she is of her brave little starlight. “Regardless of family, her people back home, or my enemies she’s never once showed regret for being herself as a human loving an alien or one woman loving another. For that I’ll always be proud and thankful to have such a brave individual at my side”
Neve:
• During June Neve hangs a lesbian flag alongside her year round progressive one she keeps in her office as well as keeps little flags for every identity in a flower vase on her desk
• She always attends her local parade and festival with you, holding onto you like you might disappear and raising your hands high as you walk through the city with everyone. These two events are the only times in the year she’ll put any non-life threatening cases on hold and just enjoy the whole day with you.
• Neve is fiercely protective of baby gays when you’re walking around and there are protestors. Always stepping between them and squaring up with her fists because “they aren’t worth the magic use”. This coupled with her being seen as a hero in the city by all but the Venatori usually gets them to back off if not just leave
• If you’re checking something out at a booth and somebody asks her what she’s doing there she’ll give them two reasons. The first one that she leads with is supporting the people of the city be they masc, femme, gay, ace, nonbinary, or anything else. Then she walks over and wraps her arms around you to pull you into a deep kiss before smirking to the person that asked, “and the second reason is my lovely partner here~”
Moira:
• Moira doesn’t really like being around big crowds so she doesn’t usually join you for bigger events but if you find a smaller event close by she’s happy to join in the celebrations, especially if it’s a festival with booths she can get little accessories to take home or get as a gift for you to remember the day.
• Normally she keeps her laptop for the home lab and work lab separate as she doesn’t really like sharing lots of personal info with her coworkers but during the month she’ll bring her preferred laptop with her to work. It’s covered in stickers among which are her three pride flags; her trans pride flag, Demi-sexual pride, and pan.
• She tries to be quiet about it and act like she doesn’t know where it came from but at the start of every pride month she stays up to her usually ungodly morning time but not in the lab. Instead she takes the time to bake an entire rainbow cake frosted to look like the progressive pride flag. She’ll only share it with you even if her coworkers or your friends visit through the month.
• The only change she makes to her appearance is a pretty noticeable one, on the first she uses her vast knowledge of bio-manipulation to change her hair to have a thick streak of rainbow and keeps it pristine until the end of the month when she changes it back to her usual ginger color. It surprises her coworkers every year despite the regularity of her doing it the same time for the past few years
You stare a moment slackjawed, Neve raises her brow waiting for an answer as you force yourself back into motion. Picking your jaw up off the floor you clear your throat before nodding and heading inside after her. She closes the door behind you and clicks the locks into place before striding over into her kitchen area.
"Care to share a couple more drinks with me, Trouble. My last client was a bit of a noble mage and gifted me a pretty nice wine bottle as a tip for a job well done.”
"Sounds like I'd be an idiot to refuse," you smile and join her by the marble countertop. You made it sound like the reason was the wine's quality but in truth the chase and adrenaline had killed all but the dregs of your buzz and if you are going to see this right through like you want you're gonna probably need that liquid courage. She pours you both a tall glass before taking the bottle to her white and gold leather couch and sets them on the table in front of it so she can fall back with a soft sigh of relief. You take up a seat on the other end and sip the rich red slowly, the smooth wine easily going down and reawakening that warm fuzziness at the very cage of your senses.
The two of you relax contentedly in silence for a moment before she asks, “So? What’s got you so quiet? Is my place that bad you’re at a loss for words?” You almost spit out your last sip of wine, eyes widening as you gulp it down.
“Are you joking? This place is beautiful! If anything it’s said beauty that’s leaving me speechless,” you say as you attempt to recover your composure and pouring both of your third glasses. You aren't sure if it's the wine giving you your former bartender courage back or the aftermath of being chased through the city putting things in perspective but you soon follow up your remarks on her home.
"Even then it's still second in beauty to you miss Gallus," you smile as it's her turn to almost spill her drink in surprise with what you think may be a slight hint of pink crossing her features.
"My looks top that which makes you speechless? Then how come you find it so easy to flirt?" She asks teasingly and shifts closer on the couch, her long slender legs stretching out behind her to where she formerly sat.
"Well it's a beauty that surpasses the awe and loss for words to the need to compliment if not worship” you explain with a wink, “I'd say you need a fan club out us dragons may count as one already plus your many adoring fans in thy city." As you reply your gaze drifts back along her legs your traitorous brain begins to imagine those probably toned legs wrapped in silk soft skin resting on your shoulders and pulling you closer into-
You throw back your glass, focusing on not spilling the wine as you down it to get your head off those thoughts. She’s the infamous and amazing Neve Gallus after all, she wouldn’t be into a less than known Shadow Dragon informant like yourself. Right? These drinks are probably just a thanks for the help and otherwise enjoyable night or something like that.
"Well with an endorsement like that how can I hope to argue?" She chuckles as she sips her glass casually in an attempt to hide her growing blush from you. Soon enough the two of you finish off the fancy bottle and you can almost feel your thoughts starting to slosh around your skull. Neve looks at the now empty wine bottle with a cute little look of disappointment and you start to think this is as good a time as any to start your goodbyes and thank her for the lovely night even if you agree it’s disappointing the wine’s all gone. As you begin to drag yourself to your feet her look shifts to you as she asks with barely hidden hope in her voice. “Oh! While you’re up would you mind grabbing us the other bottle I keep on top of the ice box? Please?”
You smile through a sigh, steadying your slight sway on the couch and nodding. “Who am I to deny a request from such a beautiful woman like yourself? But first if you could point me towards the bathroom I’d be quite grateful.” She giggles and points you towards a room just inside the hallway leading out of the room. “Thanks,” you smile and close the door behind you before splashing water over your heated face. Trying to reign in your racing and stumbling mind you can’t help but think back to the look she gave you when asking for the other bottle. You’re wine soaked imagination decides to be unhelpful and tries to figure out what she’d look and sound like asking for more of of you instead. Her kiss swollen lips breathlessly begging for more between whines and breathy moans as you pump your strap into her relentlessly. Reaching into your pants you can feel the growing wet spot between your legs and whisper a groan of need and frustration.
“Get it together girl,” you mutter to yourself, “Even if she’s somehow that into you both of us will probably be too tipsy to fully consent to anything like that after we’re done with the next bottle. Now come on, she gave you a task to do and it’s not hiding in here.” Drying the water from your hands and face you feel a sharp pain around the left side of your head.Looking ot the right for a better view you see a long shallow scar trailing along your jaw, you realize it was from when that thief fell in pain while holding a knife to you in the alley. In hindsight maybe trying to kick his knee out wasn’t your best idea for escape. Finishing up at the sink you adjust your pants back and take one last look in the mirror before reassuring yourself, “We’ve got this.”
You exit the bathroom and make your way towards the ice box with measured steps, your hand lightly resting on counter tops and tables to help your fading balance. Grabbing the bottle and the accompanying cork screw to open it, you return to the living area and take up a spot on the couch next to Neve rather than on the end. You pop the cork with ease and fill the glasses carefully though the scent of wine mixing with the sea air still clinging to Neve is making focusing on anything a little more difficult than normal.
Before either of you realize much time has passed the second bottle is already half empty and your mind is as foggy as you think it’s ever been in a while.You shift your gaze from the bottle on the table to Neve who’s staring at you with a mix of what you think is worry and a touch of confusion. “What happened to your pretty face?” She asks as she tilts your chin up and to the side to get a better look at your new scar.
“Oh nothin too bad, jus the knife that guy held ta me nicked me when he went down. I’m fine I promise,” You assure her with a slight slur in your words that didn’t seem to sway her worry.
“It’s bleeding a littl from the drink, it thins your blood,” she leans up and presses a soft kiss to the cut. It was a very brief sting followed by the soft wet warmth of her lips that had any logical part left in your head shutting down. You turn back to face her and bring a hand up to caress her face, her eyes fluttering closed as she leans into your touch with a low happy sigh. Leaning in you touch your forehead to hers and mirror the little sounds of comfort she emits.
“Guess I’ll have to be the one to take the next step too,” she giggles. You’re confused for a monet and start to pull back to look at her but then her hand wraps behind your neck and she pulls you down into a deep kiss. You can’t help but let out a pleased groan as she shifts to straddle your lap and push her tongue in to meet yours. She tasted of the last sip of wine, mint, and bliss as you explored each other, your hands wrapping around her waist and hold her pressed as close to you as you could as you trailed kisses along her jaw and down her neck making her moan and grind into your thigh. Your vision swims as the last of you glass fully absorbs into your sluggish system, a low whine sneaking out past your lips as she shifts off you and extends a hand to you.
“C’mon Trouble,” she takes your hand and guides you up next to her, “I know a far comfier place to continue than the couch.”
