Leliana grabs my hands and yanks me up to my feet. Marjolaine is lying five feet away from me with burns, bites, and arrows littering her corpse. Leliana tenderly kisses my forehead between my eyes, then snaps my nose back into place. I cringe, but mumble my thanks. "Appreciate.". I pat my love on the arm before beginning to loot the place. All I find of worth is a sturdy bow in the back room. I give Leliana the bow the second I find it. My love smiles and begins equipping it. Meanwhile, I turn towards Duncan and Morrigan. "Can we have a moment?". Morrigan nods before dragging Duncan away. I look back at Leliana to see she's strapped the newer, better bow to her back and discarded the older one.

"Leliana.". The bard looks at me with a small smile on her face. I motion to the carnage around us. "Are you okay with all this?". Her smile turns into a frown before a deep sigh passes her lips. "I suppose. Only now I'm afraid.". I cock my head and she continues. "I enjoyed killing Marjolaine. I shouldn't feel joy in her suffering. It's wrong.". She looks over at her mentor's corpse and shakes her head. "Only someone like her would find pleasure in bringing about someone else's death.". She looks at me and takes a few steps towards me. "Marjolaine always said that I was like her. What if she was right? What if I'm the same as her?".

I think about it for a moment. Leliana should enjoy who she is, but apparently she's letting me decide who she is for her. So, I try to take a neutral route. "I think that's something only you can answer.". Leliana's eyes harden and she doesn't seem pleased with me. "You know me better than anyone! Please, tell me if I'm slipping!". Telling her she's slipping would, obviously, make her unhappy. I don't want her to be unhappy. I'd prefer not having a say in who she'll become, but I don't have a choice. So, I go with what will make Leliana happy. "You aren't slipping. You are who you are. Don't make any apologies for that.". The hardness in Leliana's eyes doesn't disappear, but she nods. I look over at the bloody corpse of Marjolaine and try to keep the conversation going. "So, any unresolved feelings about Marjolaine's passing?".

Leliana looks at her mentor as a deep scowl controls her face. "I suppose there isn't. I just prefer to remember her as she is instead of what she became.". She falls silent and I quickly nudge the conversation along. "She was special to you, wasn't she?". She nods and meets my eyes. "I loved her with all my heart. She was the most important person to me.". I bow my head and try to remain humble. "I can only hope to one day be as special as she was.". A gentle hand rests on my jaw and Leliana pulls me head up until we're looking into each other's eyes.

A smile is spread across her face. Still, the hardness and coldness has not faded from her eyes. "My dear, that day has already come and gone.". I smile and Leliana kisses me between the eyes once again. However, her lips trail down and capture mine in a kiss. I allow my dominant partner to completely control me. Leliana's hands grip the back of my neck in a strong, unbreakable grip; her soft lips are pressing in against mine with unheard of strength; and the woman's tongue eventually forces its way into my mouth. Her hot, slick flesh rubbing against mine coupled with her tongue controlling my mouth quickly have me. I melt into her touch and Leliana begins yanking me towards the bed.

Unfortunately, she trips over Marjolaine's body and we both half-fall/half-stumble away from each other. I end up smacking into the bed with my stomach and Leliana falls to her knees on the floor. I manage to stand up before Leliana, and when she stands I remind her of the original proposal. "You promised to ravage me in bed. My bed. Not Marjolaine's.". I look at Leliana to see her smirking while motioning to the bed I'm already on. "Come on. It couldn't hurt.". The human begins stalking towards me like she's a wolf and I'm an injured deer. "Leliana.". The woman pouts like a baby and grumbles, but relents and doesn't try anything.

However, Leliana does begin yanking me out of the house rather forcefully. She only briefly leans in to whisper to me. "Tell Morrigan and Duncan that they have a few hours of free time in the market. That should give us enough time to enjoy ourselves.". I nod without even thinking of the consequences. Morrigan and Duncan are both sitting outside the house waiting for us. I toss my human friend a sack of gold and tell her and Duncan what to do. "Both of you are free for a few hours. Leliana and I need to go get camp ready.". Morrigan gags to show she doesn't believe the lie, but stalks away with my gold. Duncan quickly follows her. "Stupid mutt!". Morrigan says the term with affection as the two disappear into the market.

Leliana drags me through the darkening street with confidence and impatience. I struggle to keep up with her as she exits the city and guides me back to our camp. The sun has set by the time we return, and Leliana begins talking the second she releases me. "The stars are out tonight.". I look upwards before nodding in agreement. I turn my attention back to Leliana as I talk. "Yes. For once it's a clear night.". Leliana's smile is soft and welcoming as she speaks. "It's nights like these I love the most. Standing guard with you. Talking into the late evenings. In moments like those I think the Maker must have meant for us to meet one another.".

I hold in a scoff, but playfully tease my love. "I'm a gift from the Maker now, am I?". Leliana doesn't back down. Instead, she nods and defends herself. "Love is the Maker's greatest gift, isn't it?". I know I love Leliana, but it's still a surprise to hear the woman say in. Hence, my first (idiotic) response. "Love?". Leliana nods and takes a single step closer to me. "That warm feeling that envelopes you like you're sliding into a warm bath of pudding.". I have no idea why my stomach rules the night, but the beast inside me growls and instantly demands a sacrifice of delicious pudding. My mouth waters and sex flees from my mind. Any sexy response I could have had dies as I say the first word that comes to my mind.

"Mmm... pudding.". Leliana takes a deep breath, holds it, and slowly releases it. A sickly smile is still stuck on her face as she talks to me. "Oh, I have tales of pudding like you would not believe... perhaps we could retire to my tent and I could regale you?". Fuck, I don't want to hear stories about pudding all night! Damn it! I fucked up and now she doesn't want to have sex with me! I have to think of an escape, and quick! "No, thank you. I think I'll stay up and write in my journal.". Leliana is tapping her foot and her head is slowly tilting to the side. I can see all of the teeth in her smile as she keeps talking.

"I didn't know you had a journal, or wrote in it regularly.". I already have another excuse ready. "Today's a special day and I want to make a special entry.". Leliana's face drops into a near-snarl as she finally stops the game. "Perhaps you and I can go into the tent together when you write. I could watch and make suggestions.". She takes one more step forward until she's towering over me with her face barely tilted downwards to look me in the eyes. "Dear Journal... Leliana has shown much affection for me. Even asked me to come to bed with her, but alas, subtlety is lost on me.". I nearly choke on my tongue as it all falls into place. My face begins to become red.

I want to have sex, but I still find myself stalling. "Leliana, you're sure?". Leliana reaches out, grabs one of my ears, and twists. I moan as my eyes close and I lean into her touch. Leliana leans in and hisses into my untwisted ear. "Yes. I'm absolutely sure I want to take you inside out tent, bend you over, and fuck you into the ground.". My heartbeat is through the roof and my entire upper body is hot. I whisper a warning to my soon-to-be lover. "Leliana, listen. I'm a virgin, I don't have any clue as to what to do, and I'm not sure I can-". Leliana adds a tiny more twist to my ear to silence me before whispering in my ear again. "I don't give a shit. Tonight I'll get myself off by fucking you until you're raw. Now, get in the tent.".

I hardly have any say in the matter as Leliana drags me into the tent. My love turns me towards the door and gives a command. "Tie it shut. I don't want anyone or anything coming in.". I begin tying the tent up while Leliana lights a single torch. When I turn around my love is placing the torch to the side. Leliana sits down, turns towards me, and motions me over. Cautiously, I walk over. Instantly, rough hands are ripping my armor off and casually tossing it to the side. I can't meet her eyes as my naked, scarred body is put on display. Leliana only hums before heaving herself up. I can't even ask what she's doing before the human snarls a threat.

"On your knees.". I collapse onto my knees, slide onto my elbows, and rest my forehead against the ground. A deep, booming laugh. "Good little bitch!". A sharp smack across my ass for my efforts. More laughter. I nearly jump out of my skin as Leliana drags hot, rough fingers through my dripping sex. "Damn, already wet. All I've done is smack you around a little.". Another smack to my ass that causes me to gasp in shock. Leliana shoves her wet fingers in my mouth. Her digits begin roughly working over my tongue as I'm given another order. "Suck.". I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing, but I do my best. Leliana snorts and smacks. "Taste that? That's your cunt juices.".

I close my eyes and Leliana pops her fingers from my mouth. "You're dripping like an absolute whore, so I'm going to move the main event along. Have you ever even experienced an orgasm?". I nod a little and my dominant partner snarls at me. "Tell me exactly where, when, and how.". I hesitate and receive another, harder smack for my silence. "In my bedroom at night a few years ago I rubbed myself.". Leliana positions herself behind me. Her fingers dig into my ass as she separates my flesh with her hands. My cunt and asshole are laid bare for her. A single finger is ran through my wetness before Leliana's warm breath washes over my cunt.

I hiss and begin curling my spine as Leliana feasts on me. My toes curl and I find my head thrown backwards as she expertly laps, sucks, and nibbles on my virgin offering. A tension in my stomach begins to boil. I close my eyes and allow myself to get lost in the sensation of fucking. A wet thumb working its way up my ass is what finally pushes me over the edge. I groan and Leliana eases up as I begin having my first orgasm brought on by someone else. As I lie there shivering and adjusting, Leliana says something that sends a delicious shiver up my spine. "Now let's see how much I can shove up inside you.".
