Disclaimer: I have hit a snag in my evil plot. I have gone to recruit people to my cause.
She reached up wrapping her arms around his neck deciding that she had not spent enough time unclothed with him recently. He rumbled pressing her body flat against the door as his lips made their way down her jaw. She groaned lifting one of her legs and hooking it over his hip trying to get closer to him. One of his arms came down to help lift her leg up higher and she began to wriggle against him eagerly.
He growled nipping the skin of her neck before he pulled his head back so he could look at her. He rocked his hips into hers and she tangled the fingers of her good hand in the collar of his duster as her breathing started to get ragged. She leaned forward and bit his earlobe feeling frantic to have him closer to her.
"Ozma's slipper DG." He hissed at her as she released his ear and on impulse licked him under his jaw. "Keep this up and we're not going to make it to the bed."
"Don't care. To many cloths." She began to shove his duster off his shoulders finding it difficult to do with one wrist bandaged up tightly. He let her leg drop to the floor so his arms wouldn't get tangled in his coat. After it fell to the floor he wrapped his hands around her waist as he moved them away from the door and unfastened her pants as he kissed her.
"I thought I promised we'd go slow Sweetheart." His eyes had darkened to a much deeper shade of blue as his calloused hands brushed the fabric down off her hips.
She pressed her lips against his hungrily. She thought she might explode if he tried to slow down. "Now, Wyatt!" She had no idea what had come over her but she was clawing at his vest and she was pretty sure that that last thing she said sounded damn bossy. He spun her around toward the wall and she stepped out of her pants as she went.
As soon as he had her back to the wood he hooked his thumbs in her panties and slid them down off her. He kissed her hipbone gently as he stayed on his knees his hands running up her legs and thighs and he began to unbutton her shirt at the bottom. When his lips started to move inward she whimpered tugging the fedora off his head and letting it drop to the floor next to them.
"Wyatt-" Her words were breathy and she was having serious trouble focusing. "-you don't have to."
He chuckled his warm breath floating over her stomach. "But I want to. You have no idea how much I like to hear you whimper my name Darlin. Now take off your shirt for me DG."
She felt herself start to tremble but did exactly as he asked. For good measure she pulled her tank top over her head as well leaving herself completely exposed to him. He kissed her stomach once and smiled up at her before he lifted her leg and placed it over his shoulder. Her eyes glazed over and she hissed in anticipation as his lips trailed down between her legs.
His lips settled over her clit and one of his hands came up to tease the inside of her thigh as he started to suck her gently. She mewled her back arching and her good hand coming down to rest on his short blond hair. "Oh God!" This felt so good and he was doing something amazing with his tongue.
Then his fingers were inside her and her world contracted. Her grip on his hair tightened and she felt him grunt the vibration rocking against her as he crooked his fingers inside her pulling another long moan from her. It didn't take him long to have her practically sobbing his name as she came apart against his mouth. His hand left her thigh and helped brace her against the wall as she gasped for air.
He placed her foot on the ground and picked her up walking toward what she guessed was the bedroom. She nibbled at his neck causing him to huff in irritation. He kicked the door open and tossed her gently on a small quilt covered bed. She bounced with a giggle as he unbuttoned his vest and shirt as she stopped springing. He shrugged out of his cloths his pants following his shirt.
He growled as he crawled over her his lips capturing hers as his arms caught her legs. Suddenly her knees were locked under his elbows and he was thrusting into her in one swift stroke. She moaned as his hands snaked under her and held her shoulders pressing her closer to him. He sucked on the bruise he had given her as he began to move inside of her.
She moaned and feeling brave or simply to good to care about being nervous she twisted her head enough to be able to breath into his ear. After all his words had certainly sent spikes of pleasure through her so she figured there was no harm in trying to excite him more. "That trick with your tongue was very impressive Wyatt." She drew his name out and scratched her nails down his scalp as she spoke.
She heard him suck in a breath his movements slowing slightly as he focused on her words. "But having you inside me like this feels even better." His fingers tightened around her shoulders and he thrust harder into her. She gasped his name trying to remember what she had meant to say next. "I've never felt as good as when you press into me and groan my name. It makes chills run up my spine."
Her words were having their intended effect. "Your eyes turn the most brilliant shade of blue when you're buried inside of me. It makes me wonder how many different ways you're going to take me." Cain's thrusts were becoming desperate as he drove to bring her over the edge with him. She nuzzled his neck feeling herself getting close. "I'm so close Cowboy, twist your hips for me, make me scream for you." He complied with a feral growl and as promised she arched her back as she shouted out his name as they tumbled into ecstasy together.
He didn't even try to move off of her for a long time and she wasn't in a hurry to get him off truth be told. He unhooked her legs but returned his hands to her arms as his face rested against her hair. She played with the hair at the nape of his neck contentedly making a mental note to come up with some new material to whisper to him next time they were in bed together. Her body was sated and limp but her wrist was starting to throb again and she shifted so his weight wasn't pressing down on her left arm.
His head came up when she moved and he rolled them over so she was sprawled over his chest with her hips straddling him. She buried her face in his shoulder now slightly embarrassed as she readjusted her arm so her wrist wasn't being crushed. One of his hands rested on the small of her back and the other came up to run over her hair. She could hear his heart beat thumping steadily under her ear and she smiled. And he once said he didn't have a heart, silly man.
If her wrist hadn't been hurting so much this would have been perfect she though idly. The hand that was on her back started to trace over her bruise and she winced. Ok that too. "Darlin you're a mess." Cain murmured amusement thick in his voice. His head had come up to look her over and she raised her face off his chest to glare at him.
"Gee thanks." Sarcasm was rather prominent in her tone. "I feel very pretty and loved now that you've pointed that out." She rolled her eyes. She usually liked Cain's blunt honesty and she was ever so slightly amused by it at the moment, but what woman wants to hear that in this kind of situation? Her eyes flicked to the door, she bet there was a bathtub around here somewhere. "See if you get to see me naked again." She teased as she made to get off him.
He snorted and let her stand before he pulled her into his lap as he sat on the edge of the bed. She let out an eep of surprise as his arms held her against him. He twisted her sideways so he could see her face and brushed the hair out of her eyes. He kissed her softly and she stilled letting him explore her mouth. When he drew back his blue eyes were bright and alive as he cupped her face. "I do love you DG."
She froze her eyes widening and locking with his. His fingers held her face as she searched his very open expression. He wasn't lying and he wasn't hiding anything from her. He meant it. Then she pounced him because she didn't know what else to do and it seemed appropriate given the situation. He barely managed to keep them upright as she assaulted him with kisses her arms going back around his neck.
"Easy Sweetheart." He managed as he tried to hold her extremely excited form still. She ignored him wrapping herself back around him and attacking him with nips and kisses. She changed her mind, she didn't care if her wrist hurt, this was perfect. He gave up the fight and let her have her way running his hand up her back and trying to keep them upright with the other.
When she settled down he grabbed her neck and kissed her soundly before resting his forehead against hers. She didn't think she'd ever had such a big smile on her face before. He gave her a soft smile in return. She kissed him once more for emphasis. "I love you to."
She thought his eyes might actually start to glow when she said that. His arms tightened around her and his jaw clenched his hand tucking her head under his chin. He held on to her for a long time before he let her up. "Come on Sweetheart. Let's get you cleaned up."
She stood and Cain led her to a small room a door down the hall. As he opened the door the small bathroom someone knocked on the front door. She turned her head but he shoved her in the bathroom closing the door. "I'll take care of it. Take a bath and we can eat when you're done."
She blinked as he shut the door but dropped the silencing spell she'd thrown over the house as she turned on the water. The small tub filled with warm water quickly and she stepped in and submerged herself in the warm water gratefully. She could hear Cain talking to someone in a friendly manner and knowing it was safe began to wash her hair one handed. It took forever to get clean and keep her bandaged wrist dry but she managed.
Getting out of the tub she wrapped a towel around her waist and paused. She had no cloths and she could still hear Cain talking. She cracked the door open listening and heard an unfamiliar voice giving the Tin Man instructions on some sort of herbal medication. She nearly gagged when she made out the words boil and tea. That sounded so tasty. Then the front door closed and she poked her head out of the bathroom her hair dripping. She frowned focusing her light and it did its instant blow-drying trick.
Cain walked back down the hall and saw her head craning around the doorframe. He raised an eyebrow at her. "Can I grab my pack?"
His lip twitched and he nodded. "Food's in the sitting room. I'll be out in a few minutes." He looked her over as she walked out in a towel heading for the front door. His arm shot out and he pushed her backward. "I put our things in the bedroom DG. Can't say anything's organized at this point though."
She grinned and turned back to the bedroom closing the door behind her as Cain went into the bathroom. Her lip twitched when she saw the mess on the floor. He had obviously been in a hurry to get dressed and hide the fact that her cloths hadn't made it all that far into the house. She opened her pack and retrieved a set of clean cloths putting them on before she sat on the floor and began to fold their cloths.
Once they were folded she placed them in their respective bags and headed toward the food. She grinned when she spotted an assortment of food sitting on an old wooden tray on a battered old table in the center of the small cozy room. Oh yummy! She hadn't eaten since yesterday and she made it to the tray her fingers inches from a roll before she drew her hand back. She sighed and turned to the fireplace tossing a few logs into it and lighting it with her magic.
Then she snatched up an old teakettle and filled it full of water from the kitchen before she returned and hung it over the fireplace on a metal hook that had been installed for just that purpose. She sat on the edge of one of the faded chairs watching the fire as she waited for Wyatt. The kettle whistled and she stood up tugging her sleeve over her palm and lifting the kettle away from the fire. She set it on top the table as Cain walked into the room.
"Where's the medicine they sent over?" She was looking over the tray but all she saw was food.
He reached over the tray taking a tea bag and plopping it in a teacup handing it to her. "Let it steep for a few minutes before you drink it." His gaze flicked over the untouched tray then to her. "You haven't eaten yet."
Her brows furrowed. Was he trying to trick her or something? "You weren't here."
He smiled pleased, sitting down and picking up a plate as she snatched up a role. They ate silently as her tea cooled down. After she was full and happy she grabbed the cup and moved to sit carefully on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her as she leaned back and took a sip of the tea. "Uggg! What is this? Motor oil?"
He chuckled as she braced herself and swallowed the lot of it as fast as possible. "That was gross. It better make my wrist stop throbbing or so not worth it."
He took the cup from her and set it on the floor before he cuddled her back against him. She was just starting to drift off lulled by his even breathing and the warmth of the fire when she heard shouting and gunshots. She sprang off him fully awake as he snatched his gun off the table. He ran to the window keeping her behind him as he parted the curtains.
She looked past his shoulder and cursed vehemently. Riding into the center of town a large group of raggedly dressed Longcoats were being chased by a group of the royal guard. While the guard had them on the run they were sorely outnumbered and the Longcoats were turning to make a stand in the town square.
Cain headed to the door unlatching it and turning to her. "You stay here!"
She was behind him instantly her hands glowing. "Not a chance in hell Tin Man. This is my fight to and I'm going to help." Her voice was dead serious and she could see the real fear in his eyes. She set her chin and stared him down. "We don't have time to argue! These are my people and I will help them!"
He growled torn between wanting to protect her and knowing that she could in fact help them. Precious seconds ticked by as they stared at one another shouts and gunfire growing louder. "Stay behind me and keep your head down. They'll know who you are as soon as you cast a spell."
She jerked her head and he threw the door open. She took a breath trying not to think about what could happen in the next few minutes.
