Chapter Fourteen
AN: And now the part you've all been waiting for. Here's hoping it's all right. I wrote this chapter to Heather Nova's "Only Love." If you can multitask, have a listen while you read the chapter; it really sets the mood and tone.
Irishgal95: You have absolutely, totally, utterly, completely made my day! Go raibh maith agat!
"Bo?" Tamsin's voice called out hoarse and needy in the darkness.
The succubus was instantly awake. "What's wrong?"
"I need you," the Valkyrie pleaded in a desperate gasp.
Bo wrapped her arms around Tamsin, holding her close. The blonde shuddered in her embrace, clutching at the black silk of Bo's nightie while burying her head in the brunette's shoulder. Bo traced calming circles on Tamsin's back and ran tender fingers through her hair, pressing the occasional soft kiss to her forehead. "I've got you," Bo soothed. "I've always got you."
As Tamsin's shivers slowly began to subside under the succubus's ministrations, she realized exactly what position she was in. She was still clinging to Bo's nightie, pulling it so far down that her breasts were in danger of coming free. The blonde had her face buried in the crook of Bo's neck and one leg slung over the brunette's thigh. Tamsin was hyperaware of every burning place they touched, the slightest of movements kindling the flames of desire beginning to ignite within her. She looked up at Bo in panic, afraid of what the succubus's reaction would be, but Bo looked back at her with gentle surety, placing another kiss to Tamsin's forehead. The kiss turned into a series of smaller ones down Tamsin's cheek and along her jaw and ended with a gentle brush of Bo's lips against hers.
Tamsin arched into the kiss with fervent need, letting out a whimper as Bo matched her ferocity. Mouths moved in tender synchronicity as the two women molded seamlessly to each other's embrace, pressing the full length of their bodies together. But once again, Bo's tongue along Tamsin's lips made the Valkyrie pause. "Bo, wait," she protested with effort, barely breaking the kiss. It was hypocrisy of the worst kind. Hadn't Tamsin denied Bo just days ago for the very same reason – because she was hurting and in need of comfort? How selfish would Tamsin be to accept this now?
"Shh," Bo soothed again, stroking Tamsin's cheek. "I want to. I promise you, I want to." The succubus knew exactly what the Valkyrie was thinking – exactly why she was resisting. But this was different from before. This time Bo was offering to take Tamsin's pain away – not out of pity, but from a deep longing of her own. "I could never regret you," Bo repeated, smiling at the woman in her arms. And this time, Tamsin broke.
The Valkyrie crashed her lips to Bo's again and moaned as their tongues met and delved and danced. She released the succubus's nightie to wrap her arms around her neck instead, tangling her fingers in thick brown hair. Bo's lips tasted like heaven against Tamsin's and the blonde drank in the sweetness of their tongues together as if she'd never have another chance. The passing thought made Tamsin cling even more tightly to the succubus, who responded by slipping her hands beneath the hem of Tamsin's t-shirt to alight on bare skin.
Tamsin shivered again, this time from arousal as Bo drew random patterns on her skin, leaving trails of heat and lust in her wake. Tamsin began to tug at Bo's nightie in an attempt to find bare skin herself but Bo gently shushed her, rolling atop the blonde. "Let me," she murmured. "Let me take care of you." Tamsin – who had never once surrendered, never once let someone else take the lead, never once in her many lifetimes let someone lie atop her – nodded her assent, lifting her arms above her head in a sign of complete submission. Bo kissed her deeply in both understanding and reassurance as she dragged the fabric of Tamsin's shirt up her body and over her arms before tossing it somewhere into the darkness of the room.
Bo placed one last kiss to Tamsin's lips before kissing her way along her jaw and down her neck, licking and nipping at the column of her throat and eliciting whimpers from the blonde beneath her. She licked a gentle trail along the Valkyrie's collarbone before kissing her way down her chest, ending her journey at the space between Tamsin's bra-clad breasts. Bo nuzzled the generous flesh with a sigh, kissing her way along the top of the blonde's breast before leaving gentle bites in her skin, each nip bringing a whimpering cry from Tamsin's lips. The succubus reached around and deftly unhooked the clasp of Tamsin's bra as she kissed her way back to the Valkyrie's neck. With the lightest brushes of her lips, Bo nudged the straps of Tamsin's bra down her arms before taking the garment between her teeth and pulling it from her completely. The sensuality of the display only served to increase the wetness already pooling between Tamsin's thighs.
Once Tamsin's bra had been tossed aside, Bo stared at what she'd revealed. The Valkyrie's breasts were perfect – round and full with nipples of the lightest pink already pebbled with desire. Bo eagerly descended upon her, taking one breast in her hand while lowering her mouth to the other, tracing the areola with her tongue before wrapping her lips around Tamsin's nipple. Tamsin cried out and arched her back as she tried to press more of herself against Bo. The wet heat of the succubus's tongue drawing fiery designs over her breast had the Valkyrie reeling with delight, clenching the sheets in a white-knuckled grip as she moaned out her pleasure. Even as Bo laved Tamsin's nipple with her tongue, she pinched and rolled the other between her fingers, cupping the generous flesh of her breast in her hand. With one last flick of her tongue, Bo moved her lips to the neglected bud, pulling it between her teeth and sucking hard.
Tamsin bucked her hips against Bo in desperation, her entire body burning with need. The succubus ran her palms down the Valkyrie's stomach before dragging her pants and underwear down her legs with reassuring tenderness even as she looked up at the blonde with a mischievous smile. Reluctantly leaving Tamsin's breast, Bo's lips followed the path her hands had taken until she was nuzzling the soft curls between Tamsin's thighs. Spreading the Valkyrie's legs, Bo kissed her folds as she might her lips before parting them with her thumbs to reveal the soaking length of Tamsin's sex. Her own need pulsing between her legs, Bo found the blonde's aching clit with unerring accuracy and wrapped her lips around it, humming as she took in Tamsin's taste. The vibrations against the sensitive bundle of nerves had Tamsin arching again as she sobbed out her pleasure. The sound stirred Bo's own lust even further, and she slid her hand down to trace Tamsin's entrance with her fingertips before sliding two fingers inside her.
Tamsin bit her lip, but it did nothing to stifle her shuddering moan as Bo entered her. She had never felt so complete – as if she'd found part of herself she didn't even realize she was missing. Bo gently pulled back before sliding her fingers deeper, tenderly exploring the Valkyrie's center until she found that ribbed patch deep within that sent jolts of pleasure crackling along Tamsin's nerves. The Valkyrie relinquished her grip on the sheets to grasp at Bo's shoulders instead. "Bo, please…I need…I need…" Understanding Tamsin's plea, the succubus placed one more kiss to the blonde's clit before replacing her mouth with her thumb. She slid up Tamsin's body to bring their lips together again and the blonde could taste herself on Bo's tongue as the succubus wrapped her free arm around the Valkyrie to pull her closer.
Tamsin had never been taken like this before. Tamsin had never really been taken. She'd always been the one doing the taking, finding quick pleasure in a quick fuck before going on her way. But this was different. This slow, sweet joining was unlike anything the Valkyrie had ever felt before – more pleasure than she'd ever thought was possible, every sense heightened and every part of her aware of the woman above her. Maybe it was because Tamsin was in the arms of her warrior; maybe it was because it was Bo moving inside her. Whatever the reason, there was beauty in this surrender, and Tamsin cherished every movement, every second, every sound.
The Valkyrie spread her legs further and wrapped them around Bo's waist, and the change of angle made both women moan. Bo had begun to curl her fingertips on each downstroke, massaging that secret spot within Tamsin and sending her higher and higher. The succubus quickened her thrusts as the blonde began to buck her hips more frantically, the swell of her release rolling through her like a wave for shore, sharpening as it crested…
"So close," Tamsin gasped. "Bo, so close."
"That's it, baby," Bo encouraged. "Come for me, Tamsin."
Tamsin opened her eyes to meet Bo's, expecting her gaze to be bright blue, but the succubus's eyes remained their warm, caring brown. The knowledge that Bo was joining with her not as a succubus but as herself sent Tamsin over the edge.
The Valkyrie tossed her head back as she came with a sharp cry. Her climax cascaded from her center to the very tips of her fingers and toes and Tamsin let it take her, safe to let go in Bo's arms. Bo continued to move within the Valkyrie as she succumbed to her pleasure, drawing out the aftershocks until Tamsin lay spent. For a moment, the blonde could only lie there with her eyes clenched shut as she struggled to breathe. When she'd finally managed a semblance of composure, she opened her eyes to gaze up at Bo.
The smile that lit Tamsin's face made Bo's heart ache. It was vulnerable and almost shy but filled with carefree, unrestrained joy. Bo thought the blonde had never looked so beautiful as when her smile was so bright and her happiness made the succubus grin in return. Tamsin bit her lip – again, almost shyly – before leaning up to press her lips to Bo's with a giddy sigh. Bo giggled into the kiss, tenderly stroking the blonde's cheek. She was so enraptured that it took her a moment to realize that Tamsin was tugging at her nightie. "Please…" Bo complied, tossing the silk over her head before lifting off Tamsin just far enough to take off her panties as well. Both women moaned as the succubus pressed her body back to Tamsin's, relishing the feel of each other's skin. Tamsin reached between them to where their hips met and gently parted Bo's folds. Placing one hand at the small of the succubus's back, the Valkyrie guided her down so that their clits pressed together.
Bo threw her head back and cried out at the sensation, propping herself up on her elbows for leverage as she ground her hips against Tamsin's. Tamsin lifted her head to take one of Bo's nipples into her mouth, eliciting further moans from the succubus. The Valkyrie brought her free hand to Bo's neglected breast, cupping the soft mound in her palm and worshiping her nipple with her fingertips.
Both women could feel the slickness of their arousal meeting each other's and the sensation of being so connected heightened their already-frantic desire. Bo reached between them and dipped her fingers in their combined essence, painting her lips before sucking on her fingers. Tamsin's vision grew hazy with lust as she watched and when Bo bent her head to kiss Tamsin, the blonde responded eagerly, both of them whimpering at the shared taste. Succubus and Valkyrie clung to each other as they moved in perfect sync, spiraling higher and higher until their orgasm sent them soaring. Each screamed out the other's name as ecstasy caressed their every nerve in all-consuming bliss before subsiding into shudders.
Bo collapsed on top of Tamsin, who wrapped her arms around the brunette's waist. When the succubus tried to roll away, the Valkyrie let out an "mm-mn" of protest, holding her in place. Giggling, Bo kissed her again – tender and caring – before burying her face in the crook of Tamsin's neck. The blonde hummed in content as she pulled the sheets over them both.
