Selase soared up to about two thousand feet and veered left flying off to the west. Paige had thought flying solo on Selase had been amazing but now, riding in front of Walter, his arms around her waist and his hands holding the horn of the saddle tightly. Her pelvis pressed hard into his hands as his manhood was pressed hard against her ass. She grinned and leaned back as she reached her left arm back over her shoulder to grab the back of his neck. She pulled against him until he leaned forward and his head came up along side hers, so she could turn her head. Paige ran her hand up his neck and through his hair, as they kissed passionately while Selase continued to fly steadily to the west.

Walter released his left hand from the saddle horn as he brought it firmly up along her body until his hand came up onto her left breast. Walter felt the softness he remembered quite well from that night after they fought the shade by the bridge. He began to caress and squeeze her breast. Walter's breathing increased rapidly.

He could feel her nipple harden under his hand behind the bodice of her dress. He began circling and pinching at it. As he began to pull on it Paige gasped into his mouth, he broke their kiss. He began kissing across her cheek, back to her ear where he paused to breathe for a few moments before he began kissing and biting her neck.

Paige's breathing also increased. She forced her right hand between her ribs and his right arm as she reached back along her hip, slipping forcefully between them until she took hold of his manhood and gently squeezed bringing an excited groan from them both. "By the wise Lady, Walter," Paige whispered urgently.

Walter was so enthralled in the feelings he had never experienced before he wasn't able to hear her as he continued to kiss and bite along her neck. His left hand moved from her breast and traveled down her body to touch the top of her left thigh. He pushed his hand to his right feeling along her thigh and stomach. He began pulling at her dress trying to drag the hem up to her thighs.

Paige's breathing increased again as she released him before squeezing him again. "Walter," She said a bit more forcefully as she brought her left hand back behind her. She was thankful he had worn regular pants rather than his leathers. She worked quickly but clumsily at his pants, finally freeing his manhood. She grinned wickedly with a groan as her eyes closed as she felt his naked flesh with both hands. She took his manhood into both hands and began stroking him. She could hear and feel the growl that came from his throat as it vibrated against her neck and her grin grew.

Walter was becoming frustrated at the material of her dress and as his teeth bit harder into her neck, his lips closed over his teeth and her skin and he sucked hard against her flesh. Paige's eyes opened as she gasped at all of the feelings, "Wise Lady," she whispered through the sensations. She began pulling at the back of her dress struggling even more than he was.

Walter's left hand fought to pull the hem of her dress up until his fingers finally felt the bare flesh of her left thigh and he growled as his fingers slid up her thigh to touch the soft curls of her pubic hair. Paige moaned louder as the callused flesh of his hand had caressed over the smooth flesh of her thigh. His index finger passed over the sensitive folds of her flesh as his middle finger pressed slightly within her.

Paige swallowed hard as she gasped, "Walter," she said again. She remembered back when they first met. The many times hearing his name whispered to her, and seeing his face in her visions hadn't prepared her for the real thing.

She had been completely smitten by him in the inn. It had been an almost torturous journey from Oxinaer to Scorpion Keep. How many times she had flirted with him during those twelve days. She'd half convinced herself that he was either already married or involved with someone as he hadn't responded to those gentle signals she sent his way to let him know she was interested.

By the time they had arrived at the Keep, their relationship was ten days longer than any other since Drew. It wasn't until Toby had explained about Paladins did she finally begin to understand a bit more about why he hadn't responded.

"Goddess, help me," Paige whispered. "Walter," she nearly screamed as she was finally able to bring the back of her dress up enough that she felt his manhood come to rest against her ass. She took hold of his manhood again and rubbed it around her bare flesh.

Walter continued to growl as he slowly released the suction against her flesh and scraped his teeth along her skin as he brought his teeth together. "My love," he finally gasped.

Paige smiled as she squeezed him again with both hands, "We need to find our campsite, quickly. I don't believe Selase would appreciate me doing what I am fighting with all my might against doing and losing." She brought her left hand back around and grabbed his left arm in need, and pressed her nails into his arm.

Walter opened his eyes as he looked around. They were passing over the western edge of the meadows and he saw a small lake down below. Drawing in a ragged but deep breath, "Selase, let's see that lake down there a bit better."

Selase shrieked her response and began a slow descent. With his fingers continuing to touch Paige intimately, Walter was beginning to understand why Paladins had such restrictions to wait until marriage. He could easily see himself losing himself in these feelings for Paige. If she was to ask him this moment to renounce being a Paladin, he felt he'd do it with no hesitancy. Lord Weir had woefully under prepared him for this moment.

"Selase, please, not slow, faster, faster," Paige gasped from Walter's caresses as she pleaded with Selase. All the while she continued to squeeze and release Walter's manhood as she tried hard not to buck on Walter's hand.

Selase shrieked and adjusted her feathers and wings as she dove down fast. Within ten seconds they dropped over two thousand feet. Had Walter not been holding the saddle horn and Paige as tightly as he was, they probably would have flown off the saddle. They both laughed at Selase's quick response and the giddiness it caused in their stomachs.

The lake Walter saw was about another thousand feet below the edge of the meadows. There was a four tier waterfall that fed the lake and then it streamed out of the lake and continued about five hundred feet before it cascaded over the edge to plummet down further to the west. Selase made several passes around the small cliff shelf, dropping several hundred feet with each pass.

"It looks perfect to me Selase," Paige breathed heavily as Walter continued to caress her flesh. Before Walter could reply Selase shrieked and dove down again and pulled up at the last minute to begin flying ten feet above the ground along the stream as it ran off of the cliff. Selase banked hard and came back up the other side as her legs came in contact with the ground and she began running up to the edge of the lake.

Paige all but leapt out of the saddle followed closely by Walter. Paige smiled at Walter's hardness as it swayed with is movements. Walter turned and began untying the tent on the back of the saddle. "What are you doing?" Paige demanded as she stared at him.

Walter gasped breathlessly, "Getting the tent to put it up to ensure some privacy my love."

Paige grabbed his arm and pulled hard, "To hell with the tent for now, there is plenty of privacy here. Please Walter, I need you, here, now. I can't wait another minute."

Selase watched for a moment before she lay down where she stood.

Walter turned and grabbed Paige up, kissing her deeply. Paige pressed back into him kissing him back harder and harder as she grabbed his manhood and began squeezing him again.

As Walter began trying to undo the lace about the bodice of her dress so it would come off, Paige released him and began unbuttoning his shirt. After the second button she gave up and just grabbed the material and yanked, ripping the remaining buttons off.

They separated and Walter discarded his shirt before he pulled the sack off his belt and reached inside. He pulled out his bedroll and flung the blankets out before he struggled to get his boots off.

Paige pulled her dress up past her waist and then on over her head. Walter had frozen as her flesh was revealed before him. His eyes drank in Paige's nude body before she sat down on the blankets as she pulled her boots off.

Walter began to struggle even harder, trying to remove his boots faster and he fell to the blanket without managing to get a boot off. Walter rolled over while Paige giggled. Walter laughed a bit at himself while blushing as he continued to try and get his boots off. Paige grabbed the other boot and together they finally got his boots off and Walter began struggling to remove his pants as Paige moved around and came up behind him and wrapped her arms around his chest and pressed her bare breasts hard against his back and bent down and bit into his shoulder.

Walter growled as he kicked at the offending pants. He finally got them off and he turned as he pushed Paige down onto the blanket. He covered her body with his as she spread her legs for him while he moved into position. Walter's eyes closed as Paige reached down between them and took his manhood into her hand before guiding him inside of herself and they both groaned in pleasure as he slipped in and began to fill her up.

It had been some time since Paige had last been intimate with someone. Random hook ups were not her thing, even if they had been there was Ralph so it would have been difficult to either get away or entertain someone. Their constant moving and running from town to town didn't afford much opportunity to get close enough to someone.

It was a bit uncomfortable as Walter slid deeper into her but she welcomed it none the less. The excitement of their play on their way here had made it much easier.

Walter opened his eyes as he came to rest between Paige's legs. His mind seemed to think of something as he took in a ragged breath, "What about Selase?"

Paige shook her head with a smile, "Leave her alone, if she wants to watch, she can watch. If you are as distracted as I am, I'm thankful for her to warn us if something isn't right."

Walter nodded. He realized quickly he was at the extent of his sexual knowledge and instinct. He felt Paige move as she began grinding her pelvis up into him. He leaned in and began kissing Paige and she began having a hard time breathing, "Walter, you need to put more of your weight onto your elbows, your squishing me."

Walter blushed as he rose up to remove his weight from her and he felt the pleasure as his manhood slid backwards inside of Paige. He continued until he went a bit too far and slipped completely out of her. He groaned in frustration. Paige smiled as he almost frantically began trying to slide back inside of her. She put her hand against his chest. "It's okay, relax a moment love," Paige told him breathlessly as she reached down and guided him back into her body.

He pushed in quick and hard, desperately wanting to recapture that feeling. As his pelvis pressed hard into Paige's he bent down and kissed her again, this time keeping most of his weight off of her. Remembering the feeling of pleasure as he pulled back a moment ago he repeated the process being careful not to pull back so far and then pushed in again. The slow gentle rocking, slipping in and out was overwhelming his senses. But it was mildly frustrating Paige so she reached down and grabbed his ass with both hands and began pulling him back inside her, faster and harder with each stroke.

Walter couldn't believe the sensations as he thought, 'Wise Lady.' The force of their coupling had sweat beading up on his face and forehead. His arms and back were developing a nice sheen from his sweat. He wasn't sure why but all of his exercise routines couldn't produce this much of a burn this quickly.

As the pleasure continued to build they both began moaning and groaning more frequently. "I love you Paige," Walter whispered into her ear as she bit his shoulder as she surrendered to her orgasm.

The nerve tonic Allie had given him earlier had a secondary effect and helped him last a good while longer than he ever would have without it. Walter lasted long enough that Paige had another orgasm, "Oh Walter, I love you." This time her muscle contractions were too much for him and she felt Walter's release within her. She ran her hands through his hair as he gently sucked her nipples before kissing her. They were both quite pleased when they both climaxed and yet still they were so far from sated.

Selase had for the most part ignored their coupling but as they both came to climax she turned to watch them for several long minutes.

Walter's muscles trembled from exertion and not wanting to put too much weight against her he started to pull back. Paige quickly threw her legs around his waist and locked her feet pulling him back down to and inside of her. She smiled, "Roll us both over onto your back love."

Walter nodded and did as she said. She unlocked her feet as he rolled over and once she was on top she collapsed on top of him. "Am I too heavy for you?" Paige asked with some concern.

He responded by wrapping his arms around her and hugging her tightly against him. Paige smiled. She kissed him deeply as she began to rock her pelvis, back and forth, caressing his manhood slowly. Her actions kept him from softening and with their immediate need satisfied they took their time now, slowly caressing, teasing, biting and kissing each other in many ways and many places.
