Chapter 14

The light snow that fell had turned into a full-blown snowstorm; the wind was howling outside in an eerie song. But Judith felt safe and warm, at peace, she felt complete.

Zamasu held her tightly in his arms, her head once again nestled in the crook of his neck and he felt her warm breath on his exposed chest. Zamasu had pulled her naked body close to his, their legs entangled. If it were possible for him to pull her even closer, he would have.

Judith knew with unwavering certainty that she never wanted to be held like this by any other arms than his. Yes. This was how it was always meant to be.

"May I ask you something Zamasu?" Judith asked against his chest.

"No." He replied. He felt her lips turn to a smile. He waited for her question, which was sure to follow.

"Why did you hate me so much?" Judith had wondered about this before, she just never felt comfortable enough to ask him.

"Did?" he asked cryptically. "What gave you the idea that I don't still hate you?" Judith could not tell by his voice if he was serious or if he was teasing her.

"Off-course. What was I thinking?" she said coyly. She pushed her body even closer to his. 'Still a pompous ass.' Little Miss Judy said satisfied. He tightened his grip on her even more.

"May I ask you a question Judith?" Zamasu said imitating her.

Judith repaid the favour my curtly answering: "No."

Zamasu smiled. 'Still as stubborn as ever.' He thought, before continuing to his question.

"You did not seem surprised by the mark that had appeared on your chest." Judith waited for him to continue. "You know what it is." He stated. "Tell me."

"It is shoyu-ken no shirushi." She said. She was not exactly sure how she knew, but every word she spoke, she spoke with certainty, knowing it was true, "It is a mark of ownership." Judith shifted herself so she could look up at Zamasu's face, her expression serious. "I belong to you now." The way she said it made Zamasu's heart skip a beat. "I have always belonged to you."

"I would not have you branded like some sort of animal." He said angrily.

Judith chuckled against his chest and simply added: "I don't think you have a say in the matter my lord."

"How do you know this anyway?" he asked annoyed at her frivolous tone.

She solemnly answered. "Would you believe me if I told you, I don't know?"

Zamasu looked at her for a moment longer. She felt his eyes on her and looked up at him again. "I did hate you." He said. "I hated you because you erased everything that I believed I lived for." He studies her face, his silver-grey eyes moving over each line, trying to memorise them. "That day you arrived on the planet; my path was laid out perfectly in front of me." He paused. "Then I saw you. And everything changed." He traced his hand over her cheek, down her neck, onto her shoulder before continuing further over her body. His touch made her shiver.

Both of them had fallen silent. Judith leaned up and kissed him deeply. He immediately returned her kiss, his tongue teasing her lips and she felt her body react almost violently. She reluctantly pulled out of the escalating kiss and attempted to sit upright. A sharp, burning pain shot up through her core at the violent loss of her virginity. She blushed ever so slightly at the realization.

Judith thought back to those few moments their souls had blurred into one, when Zamasu had pushed her far over her threshold and she was lost in sweet ecstasy. Beneath all the sensations she experienced she had felt a certain serenity slip in, and she swore she could almost hear and audible 'click'. She knew Zamasu had felt it as well.

Judith instinctively covered herself as she sat upright, and the covers slipped from her body. She suddenly felt Zamasu's chest on against her back. He had placed his hands on her wrist where she covered herself and gently pulled them away as he softly spoke into her ear, his warm breath making her shiver even more.

"Never hide yourself from me." He had placed her one hand behind her on his head and the other he simply let slip down. The air was cold on her now exposed breasts. "Off all the creations I have witnessed, I have never beheld one as beautiful as you."

She pulled his head closer to her as she kissed him over her shoulder. She felt his one hand cupping her breast while the other pulled her body closer to his. This time, he did not tease her lips and he did not force her lips open, instead, she freely allowed his tongue access. She once again felt her control slip and she gently pulled away from him, licking her lips. She smiled inwardly. He tasted off cinnamon…

Suddenly something occurred to her. It was snowing and it was probably more than a few degrees below zero outside, so why wasn't she frozen? 'What the-' she started to think panicky. Was she going to have to add temperature tolerance to the already weird list of bloody tears and toxicity to plants? Much to her relieve she noticed that a fire was burning in the fireplace inside her room, casting dancing shadows on the walls.

"Did you do that?" Judith asked, pointing awkwardly at the blazing fire, her voice was uncertain. She felt Zamasu's body jerk as he chuckled before answering.

"Unless that ridiculous angel of yours somehow managed to sneak in and decided, very wisely, not to interrupt us, I think it would be the only logical explanation." Judith swung herself around to face him. 'Always sarcasm!' she thought, but before she could snap something back at him, he wickedly added with a sneer on his face. "Also, I didn't want you thinking that some things are smaller than what they are in reality."

Judith did not immediately catch on to what he was hinting at. 'What would be smaller in the cold that would…'. The moment she realized what he was talking about, she turned the colour of the communist manifesto, giving red a whole new meaning. 'Men.' Little Miss Judy added bored.

Still as red as the blood that had covered her cheeks weeks ago, she once again straddled him, holding his shoulder for support. Zamasu quickly wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Oh, I don't think you have to worry about that…" she said teasingly as she leaned closer to him. She could feel his aroused member pressing against her belly. "Besides…" she leaned even closer to his lips, just close enough for him to feel her breath on them, "after you so vociferously ravaged me…" she moved her body closer to his, causing some friction between them. Her breath caught in her throat as she felt Zamasu's grip tighten and he let out a shaky breath, "I won't be doubting the size of your… divinity any time soon." She barely managed to finish the sentence. The fire that burned for him inside of her now, made the fire in the fireplace look like a matchstick in comparison, and she saw the same fire burn in his eyes.

Roughly Zamasu swung her around and onto her back pinning her to the bed with his body. Lips still inches from hers, he asked amused: "Do you think flattery will get you anywhere?"

Judith smiled guiltily as she said. "Yes." And then she added. "Although your already over-blown ego hardly needs it."

Before Zamasu could reply, Judith had pulled him down and kissed him feverishly. They were once again fighting for control. Zamasu grabbed one of her wrists and pinned it to the bed. Judith could tell he was having trouble controlling his strength, the grip on her wrist was painfully tight and she was sure she had just earned herself another bruise.

… WARNING! LEMON! DO NOT READ IF YOU FIND IT DISTATEFUL …

He abruptly broke free of the kiss, breathing heavily. He looked down at her as she felt him spread her legs apart with his knee. Judith did not have time to brace herself. He slammed into her… HARD. Zamasu muffled her scream with another passionate kiss. He did not move again. Neither of them did, they were frozen in that moment. A feeling so intense had taken hold of them. Is this what love feels like? Zamasu had released her lips and was resting his forehead on hers again, eyes closed.

"Do you feel that?" he asked her breathlessly.

"Mmmh… y-yes." Judith hardly managed to speak.

The sensation only intensified as Zamasu pulled out of her before thrusting into her again, causing both of them to gasp. Torturously slowly he pulled out again, almost completely before pushing back into her as deeply as he could. Judith's back arched at his deep penetration. Ever so slowly Zamasu started to pick up the pace and soon they were once again gasping for breath.

Judith had grabbed hold of his biceps, which was on either side of her, his hands planted firmly on the bed. She could feel his muscles contract with effort underneath her palms, at each thrust and she swore, it only made her desire for him burn more fiercely.

She wrapped her legs around his waist, the result causing a completely new wave of sensations to assail both of them. Zamasu snaked his one arm underneath her waist lifting her pelvis. Judith did not know how much more she would be able to take.

Zamasu desperately grabbed onto one of her thighs. 'Oh god…' Judith thought. 'I'm going to be sixteen shades of black and blue after he's done with me!' But to her shame, it only made her want him more. Zamasu sat upright and lifted her leg over his shoulder, allowing him to push into her even deeper.

"Aahah." Judith gasped at the new angle. "Sweet jesus!" she cried out as Zamasu hit a hitherto unknown spot inside of her causing the sensations to intensify tenfold. She saw Zamasu was having trouble controlling himself.

"Zamasu." She managed to say. He looked at her with a pained expression. "Let go." She said. "Let go!" she threw her head back in ecstasy as Zamasu's grey energy engulfed them both. He grabbed both of her hands, their fingers entwined and pinned her to the bed as he thrust into her mercilessly with complete abandon.

The windows of the cabin cracked as they both hit their limit and pushed through it. Judith was clutching onto Zamasu, she did not notice she had dug her nails into his back and had caused long scratches as they both came undone simultaneously.

Zamasu collapsed on top of her, both of them panting, struggling to catch their breath, their bodies once again covered in sweat. Both of them knew, nothing would be the same again. They were bound together by something more than just desire.
