Chapter IX

By the time the party ended, Kaidan and Shepard couldn't keep their hands off of each other. Every touch, every kiss was exhilarating. Luckily, the Citadel corridors were almost deserted and Shepard's apartment wasn't far away. Standing closely behind her as they waited for the elevator, Kaidan brushed her hair aside and placed his lips on the back of her neck and whispered, "You're so beautiful". His warm breath on her bare skin sent a delightful shiver down her spine. She turned around, looked into his inviting hazel eyes, tilted her head, and sensually kissed him just below his left earlobe. She followed by a peck on his temple and ended with a long kiss on the left cheek, barely touching his lips.

When the elevator door whooshed open, they were once again enthralled in a passionate kiss. A couple past by them, staring, but Shepard and Kaidan didn't care anymore. They weren't prone to public displays of affection, but tonight was different. Tonight they didn't want anything holding them back.

Noting that the elevator was empty, Kaidan picked Shepard up with one swift motion and carried her inside. Her legs were firmly wrapped around his waist as they continued to kiss each other feverishly.

"What ... floor ... is ... your apartment?" mumbled Kaidan between kisses.

"Fifth," spurted out Shepard without missing a beat.

Still holding her tightly against him, Kaidan managed to press the button to the fifth floor of the residential wards. As the doors closed, he thrusted her to the wall and began to unbutton her top. She could feel his member growing under her, and she suddenly heard herself groan with pleasure which made Kaidan rip her blouse open. He dove in to bury his face in her cleavage, and pushed the fabric of her bra with his tongue to freely and gently bite at her exposed nipple. Shepard was going mad with desire, swaying her hips so as to feel his hardness fondle her sensitive nub.

When they arrived at the fifth floor, they were both panting heavily. Kaidan carefully set her down making sure her breasts were covered. She grabbed him by the belt and undid it as she stepped backwards toward the hall. They barely made it inside her apartment when they both started tearing their clothes off. Shoes came off first, then tops, pants and socks. Once her bra was tossed, he picked her up again, caressing every part of her body he could touch.

"Kaidan", she murmured in his ear, "I've missed you so much."

Her sultry voice and her wetness on his groin almost made Kaidan lose his balance. He set her down on the corner of the couch, caught the rim of her underwear and peeled it off. Kaidan stopped for a second to gaze at Shepard's naked body.

She was more beautiful than he had remembered. He had spent too many nights without her and now needed to feel her arousal, to hear her moan uncontrollably. All he wanted was to pleasure her-to love her.

Shepard began to massage her pink bud with one hand, touched her breasts with the other and cried out his name, cueing him to drizzle kisses from her knee to her inner thigh, spreading her legs apart. By then, she had lost herself with desire and reached for his head, tugging him by the hair toward her middle. He grinned at the thought that she craved him as much as he craved her.

His tongue traced her creases several times before landing on her swollen knob. He nipped at it with his teeth, and introduced two fingers in her. He swirled his fingers upwards pressing gloriously on her G-spot. Shepard arched her back, swooning, and squeezed the cushions of the couch fiercely as to stop her from dissolving. He slowly pulled out his fingers, spread her inner lips, and inserted his tongue, twirling it around, licking her and sucking her until she was dripping wet. She tasted so sweet and moved so gracefully. He loved every second. Kaidan switched back to rubbing her, and he felt her opening tighten around his fingers. He continued a little faster-a little harder-to get her more aroused and even tighter. Shepard's panting became erratic, moaning Oh yes incessantly. She was close, so close.

At the moment of her climax, Kaidan jumped back to suck on her some more, letting him quickly take off his briefs and giving Shepard a chance to settle her breathing. Admiring the woman he loved, Kaidan slid into her, taking but a few sturdy thrusts to reach his apex. He moaned blissfully and finished inside her warmth. In triumph, he crashed beside her on the sofa, holding her firmly.

"Where did you pick all that up?" said Shepard slowly recovering and curling up against Kaidan's sweaty body.

"I had a lot of free time on my hands fantasizing about you."

"I see," giggled Shepard naughtily.

Exhausted and satisfied, they headed to the bedroom for some well deserved shut eye and fell sound asleep instantly. A couple of hours later, Kaidan felt a hand stroking his genitals. Shepard was laying sideways, her chin on her right palm, elbow toward the headboard of the bed. She was grinning devilishly at him when he opening his eyes to look at her.

"Hey loverboy, hope you are ready for round two, because I have fantasies of my own."

"Is that right?" he asked, quickly regaining his senses.

"Uh huh," she said, springing on top of him, kissing his chest lusciously, and moving down his torso.
