"Intimacy"
Ashley's POV
"You look good in boxers, Daniels. You're lucky I let you keep on socks", I said. It had been a hard fought battle. I was wearing a T-shirt and underclothing. Daniels was wearing her dignity. "Well...I'd say you were cheating but that can't happen in this type of game. Truce?", asked Daniels, pleading. "I don't know if I'm ready to quit...I rather enjoy watching you squirm from over here", I said, smiling. Her body was...I don't think this was a good idea but if feels so...right. "Fine. Let me guess one more thing about you", conceded Daniels. "You're down to a bra, boxers, and socks. I hope you have dental floss", I said. We both laugh. Daniels ponders for a moment. "You've had someone like me attracted to you before. Someone from your past...when you were younger", said Daniels. How the hell did she guess that? I never said...did I say? No I couldn't have.
"You're not...reading my mind or anything?", I asked trying to change the subject. "No I'm not and you didn't deny it. That must mean I am correct. I believe that shirt belongs in my pile of your things", said Daniels while walking toward me. Shit! She has me there. "Fine, fine. You guessed something out of 100 nothings correctly", I said. "What a wonderful guess though", said Daniels. I think her grin has widened. Ugh! She wasn't going to let this one slide. "Easy, Daniels. You can't rush the unveiling of greatness", I said. "I don't intend to rush. I will savor these moments, I assure you", said Daniels. The smile disappeared from her lips and appeared in her eyes. I don't know what that means but it fits. There is also something primal there...like she wants to devour me. I'm trying to turn off my erogenous zones at the moment. It isn't working. "Ashley this is...I haven't taken a shirt off a woman in a long time...just...I want to be respectful", said Daniels and added "even though I'm practically naked in front of you at the moment". Suddenly, that smirk disintegrated into a fit of nerves. Luckily, I've been with the Alliance long enough to learn how to swallow nerves.
I walk toward her slowly. "Give me your hands", I said, looking in her eyes. She steps forward, maintaining eye contact. I guide her hands to my shirt. I watch the lust building in her eyes. Why are we delaying this? For the good of the mission. At least that is the rhetoric I tell myself. "I...oh...your skin...is so soft", said Daniels. She is still maintaining eye contact. Funny. She is being respectful but I caught her eyes trailing my thighs more than once. "Daniels...you see me with no pants on but taking off my shirt makes you nervous?", I asked. "That's different. Taking off your shirt...a woman's shirt, usually means something very intimate is about to happen. At least in my experience. Not necessarily sex just...intimacy", said Daniels. Ahh. I see. I simply said "lift" as my reply. She slowly took my shirt off. This was a bad idea. I can't stop myself. "Can...I look?", asked Daniels. She was still a ball of nerves. She had maintained eye contact. One word was going to change the pace of everything. "Yes", I replied.
It was simple and effective. A pass to have her take in the sight of my half-clothed body. I want her to. The energy that came from her eyes was amazing. She blinks and begins trailing down my body. Stopping at my cheeks, lips, and neck. She studies my neck intensely. Hmm. I think she likes it. I feel a tingle of electricity throughout my body. It is tickling my erogenous zones. Is it hotter in here or just me? "I love your collar-bone. May I...touch it?", asked Daniels. At this moment she can do whatever she likes. That isn't the answer I give her, however. Another simple yes will do. Her fingertips are smooth. She makes light impressions along my clavicle. I can feel her breath but I don't remember how we ended up standing THIS close together. She stops and backs away. Something is wrong. "Are you...okay Daniels?", I asked with concern.
"I am. This is just...wonderful. But you must know something about me. I can't touch you...and not want to taste you. It's a thing for me. God I sound like a creeper", said Daniels, face-palming herself. "No I get it. It seems you think about yourself in these situations a lot...what about me, Daniels?", I asked. "What do you mean?", asked Daniels, confused. "What if I want you to taste me?", I asked. Did I just ask this...out loud? I didn't do that. Yes...I did. "Yes but...I need to be sure that it's because you want to and not because of my...gifts", said Daniels, solemnly. I hadn't considered that. If her gifts had anything to do with this, it would be enhancing the energy that is already there. "I appreciate you being respectful and kind, Daniels. Let's do it this way...", I said moving to lay down on her bed, "you choose what happens next". "Oh Ashley. Are you certain of this? You mean I can do however much or little I want...to you? You want to give me that power?", asked Daniels. I leaned back on the mattress. This bed IS extra comfortable. "Are you sure it is you that is being given the power?", I said, lowering my voice. Daniels smiled. I crossed my legs and awaited her decision.
Daniels' POV
The ball is in my court. I have a slightly undressed Ashley on my bed. Do you understand what your life is worth at the moment? I sure don't. I have to touch her...even if it doesn't go past that. Dear god I'm about to touch Ashley. I don't care about anything else at the moment. Consensual touching is always a win! I walk slowly toward the bed. Something is missing. Music. Music is needed. Before I can walk toward my iPod, Ashley has her omni-tool out and replays the Dream Koala song I sent her. I'd actually forgotten I sent that to her before the dinner party. I smile and lay on the bed next to her. This is...this is glorious.
I start to caress her cheek with my pointer finger. We maintain eye contact. She smiles. "I just want...I just want to touch your skin...to make a permanent memory of how it feels. Lie flat on your back", I said. "Well at least you bought me dinner first", said Ashley. We laugh. "I'm only touching you. Whatever else may happen, know that this was my only true intention", I said earnestly. Ashley nods. I continue to make a trail toward her lips. So soft. I caress her chin with all of my fingertips. I start to trail toward her neck and I stop. Her neck just needs to be bitten. It demands teeth or tongue there. I want to do both. "Please...don't ask...just do", said Ashley. She'd been reading my eyes...saw my lust amplify. Her breathing has quickened and she was...gripping the comforter. Oh. I didn't realize my effect would be that instantaneous.
I bring my face closer to her neck. At first nuzzling my nose in the crevice between shoulder and neck. Ashley shudders. I kiss her neck slightly and bite gently. Ashley begins to writhe beside me...she moans a little too. She is trying to suppress the sounds but her throat isn't cooperating. Only fair to continue this sweet torture right? I use my lips to cover places my tongue swirls around on her neck. That got a louder sound out of her. I think this is one of her spots. Mental note to self. I reach her clavicle, kissing along the way...bite it slightly too. I stop when I realize how close to her breasts I've gotten. I look up at her and she opens her eyes. When did she close them? "What...what is it?", said Ashley, sounding dazed. She looked dazed too. "I...your bra...I wasn't sure...", I said trailing off. "I told you...whatever you want to do", said Ashley. This was too much power. Way too much. I got on my knees beside her in bed. Lowering my head, I kissed both parts of her chest in the bra. I trace circles around both areola with my tongue. Ashley moans something. I can't make it out but it sounded like "damn" and "Daniels". That may be my ego talking. I slide her bra straps off both arms. She responds by grabbing my head and directing it toward her breasts. I like that forceful tug.
My face is buried into her chest. I don't know if I'm breathing anymore. Her skin temperature changed and she's squeezing my 'locs. I look up to see her biting hard on her bottom lip...eyes closed...in pleasure. No fangirling this time. I'm simply enjoying pleasing a woman. It's been a while. I continue toward her stomach. I take care to kiss each part of her six-pack. I grab both hips because she is starting to move a LOT more. I need control for this part. My hunger has exacerbated with her movements. I can tell she wants it. And she might pull out one of my 'locs if I don't comply, out of sheer frustration. I lick just above her queendom and her entire lower body shakes. Her moans have turned into shaky, whispery breaths. I raise up, momentarily, to take off my sports bra. Before I can lower myself again, Ashley stops me. "Wait...I want...I want to see you...touch you", said Ashley between breaths. I comply by taking both hands and kissing them. "Place them where ever you like", I said. She pulls me on top of her. She grabs my chest and squeezes lightly playing with my mounds between her thumb and pointer finger. She is smiling with content plastered across her face. I can't help but smile back at her. It is infectious.
I lean down to kiss her. I haven't put my entire weight on her just yet. Ashley wraps her legs around my waist. That was...unexpected. She is kissing me with an intensity that I've never experienced. In any of my lives. Her tongue explored mine...the effect was intoxicating. She stopped, placing both her hands above her head. At first I had no idea what this meant. I need only to look into her eyes for the answer. She was surrendering. I kneeled down and kissed both of her wrists. The primal part of myself kicked in as I used my legs to part hers. Ashley smiled. Standing in between her thighs, I used both hands to slide off her panties. In an awkward motion, I removed my boxers. "I want to feel what your skin is like against my own", I said. She nods. I lay myself on top of her. This is so...I don't know how to describe it anymore. Euphoric? Ethereal? No. This was just...perfect. "Open your eyes", I said. Ashley complies while making small orgasmic whimper sounds. That is the best description I can give. She starts moving her body against mine and I mimic her movements. It creates a comfortable friction...heat passing through our bodies everywhere. "Ash...I know you said no more questions but I have to...do you want me to taste you?", I asked. "I thought that is what you were doing, Daniels?", asked Ashley. "No. I was playing with my meal. Now I'm ready to eat", I said with a devilish smile. "Please do. I wouldn't want you to starve", said Ashley.
No second thoughts here. I slide down her body and place my kisses on her other lips. Her body jerks forward. I moan at that response. There are juices across my lips and I haven't started yet. She's been aroused for some time according to the lovely mess I have down here. She smells just like Dove everywhere. I tease her a bit longer with my tongue swirling around her lips and inner thighs, which have begun to twitch more often. I use my fingers to part both lips and flick the magic button with the tip of my tongue. I can feel her queendom clench itself instinctively. This causes me to smile. Ashley is still with me physically but she is floating in her mind. I tease her by making a "pop" sound as I suckle my lips on and off that button. Her hips have started moving already. My hunger is getting the better of me. I use the full measure of my tongue to lick the button and the entrance to her queendom. I'm soaked in the scent of her. Ashley guides my head in and out of her. I allow this because it helps me know the pace she desires. And also, it is sexy as hell to me. I bite the inside of her thighs, suckling there and leaving a mark on one side. I am pleased at the purple mark left behind that looks like a heart.
I wonder if...hmm. I grab both of Ashley's hips and I pull her on top of me...to have a seat on my face. Her eyes open with pleasure and shock simultaneously showing in them. I put my wrists above my head in similar fashion to her. "Do what you will", I say. She nods. I'm surrendering now. She leans back and wraps her arms around my thighs. I laid still with the exception of my head, lips, and tongue moving. Ashley knows how to use her hips, for the record. She rolls into my tongue, guiding my thrusts inside her. Her legs are becoming more wobbly above me. Her juices have soaked my chin and neck. She's biting her lip again. Releasing my legs, she leans forward and places both hands on my head. She grinds harder with each moan louder than the next. Her effort to suppress them isn't working. I can feel her getting closer. Her body starts shaking out of rhythm. "Daniels...damn...I'm...oh god...I'm...", breathes Ashley. I know what that means. She started to run away from my tongue inside of her. No, Ms. Williams. You're gonna get this work. I grabbed her hips to keep control. Her eyes open again and I feel the quiet shaking that builds into a colossal earth quake. I am being flooding with her taste. She is holding my hair for dear life. She shudders violently and I suckle it out of her. Every drop. Every "oh" sound...every sharp intake of breath...every failed attempt to look me in the eye only to close her own. She stops shaking and I gently place her down on the bed. I kiss her thighs and kiss her fingertips. She has a happy and sleepy grin on face. I know that look too. The energy exchanged is...intense. I climb up to stroke her hair allowing my after care to soothe her. She finally catches her breathe and says "we're not done. lay down".
Who am I not to comply with a lady's demand?
End Chapter 25
A/N: I tried to make this as tasteful as possible without sacrificing the kink that we all know and love. I hope that I achieved this as what's sexy to me may not be to you guys but you know...feedback, I need that. I think I'll move on to the Citadel in the next chapter. Time to get back to shooting up things!
