A/N: I dedicate the lemon in this chapter to LitNiche because she convinced me to write it. X3 How could I deny her request when she said she would be devastated if there weren't any wedded bliss lemons? X3

Chapter 32

The Wedding, Part 3

By the end of the day, Shepard was pleasantly exhausted and impossibly happy. All her friends had found rooms or couches (or a floor in Grunt's case, as he preferred floors. He was a rather strange krogan), and Falere and Samara had more permanent accommodations in the estate's guest house. Her wedding was almost as perfect as her currently-stripping wife. Liara was standing next to their closet, carefully unzipping her Bonding dress, and the sight made the human want to melt in a puddle on the floor. Instead of melting, she chose to give her bondmate a hand after deciding it was better than staring like a horny teenage boy. She crossed the room and helped Liara unzip the dress the rest of the way down, immediately lowering her lips to kiss the newly-exposed skin.

"So beautiful," Shepard murmured against soft blue skin, "and all mine. Goddess, I'm married to Liara T'Soni."

Liara leaned back into Shepard's embrace, lacing their fingers over her growing belly. "Indeed you are married to Liara T'Soni. You should tell me about her. She sounds amazing."

Shepard smiled against Liara's shoulder. "Well," she replied, untangling her fingers in favor of focusing on removing Liara's dress, "she's incredibly brilliant." She placed a kiss to her neck. "Gentle to her core." She moved her hand to softly caress an exposed breast. "She's the most kind, most sensitive, most gentle, most beautiful person I've ever met. Inside and out." The dress fell in a heap at Liara's feet. "Sexy. Sensual. Soft. Strong. She's more than I could have ever hoped for, and more than I ever dreamed of. And goddess, somehow I convinced her to have my children. Surely this is heaven."

She slithered a hand up Liara's neck, gently tipping her chin up so an extension of her crest ended up in Shepard's awaiting mouth. She reveled in the sound of Liara inhaling sharply from the contact and a shiver of pleasure rippled through the asari. She gently guided Liara in the direction of their master bathroom - probably their favorite room in the entire estate. Benezia had impeccable taste in colors and design, and as such, the master bathroom was beautiful. Shepard's favorite part was probably the black marble shower, complete with two massive shower heads and more than enough room to quite comfortably accommodate both of them. Which of course meant they always showered together and for some reason that made her obscenely happy.

Halfway to the shower she tore her lips away from Liara's crest so she could remove her uniform. She didn't even care when it landed on a heap on the floor. She could iron the hell out of it later. Right now all she could think about was Liara T'Soni. Her bondmate, her wife, her love.

A minute later they were standing beneath steaming hot water and groaning softly into a sensual kiss. Though Shepard knew Liara's body well, she still took great pleasure in relearning every inch of blue skin with her hands. Their kiss deepened and soon their tongues were languidly writhing together, sometimes shallow swipes, and sometimes deep, long strokes. Oh how she loved those blue lips. They were smoother than her own, and Liara's unique taste was sweeter than the best wine. Several minutes later Shepard finally found the will to pull away and grabbed a bottle of lavender bodywash from the shelf. Squeezing a liberal amount on her hand, she moved behind her bondmate and began massaging the soap into her wife's slightly stiff shoulders. She shuddered in delight every time Liara rewarded her efforts with a soft moan of pleasure. Shepard slowly spread the soap across Liara's arms and back, then lowered her hands to pay special attention to the perfect swell her bondmate's backside. Then she moved her hands around to Liara's growing belly and moaned softly against the back of her neck, which her lips were currently kissing.

"Liara . . ." Shepard breathed, languidly running soap-covered hands over her raised stomach, "oh my sweet Liara. Do you have any idea how exquisite you are?"

Liara leaned into Shepard, and her head fell back on the human's shoulders with a small groan of pleasure. "I love you," Liara whispered, running her hands along Shepard's thighs as the human continued lavishing her blue skin with attention. "My Commander Shepard."

Shepard found she could no longer resist the temptation of Liara's perfect breasts. She cupped both of them in her slick hands and began massaging them in slow circles, reveling in all the soft moans escaping her lover's blue lips. She flicked knowing thumbs over hardened blue nipples and her heart soared when Liara rewarded the action with a cry of pleasure. It also sent burning heat rocketing directly to her core. She wasn't sure anymore if it was the heat of the water or her arousal that was making her feel so light-headed, nor did she care. She kissed her way up Liara's neck, then latched onto a perfect crest extension with her lips again. Liara tilted her head back, allowing Shepard easier access to gently suckle the sensitive flesh. Her hand traveled down the blue body in front of her and began teasing Liara's wonderfully smooth folds with practiced fingertips.

Shepard guided them toward the wall when she felt Liara start to go weak at the knees and gently pressed her into the cool marble. Liara immediately brought her hands up and dug her fingertips into the wall in a vain attempt to ground herself. If the delicious sounds escaping her beautiful blue lips were any indication, she wasn't going to last long and Shepard didn't want her to. If she had her way, she would make Liara come until she could come no more. She released Liara's crest extension only to lavish attention on another one with soft kisses and licks. Then she took it in her mouth as far as it would go while simultaneously imbedding two fingers deep within Liara's silky wet walls.

The asari's entire body convulsed with a cry of pleasure and rolled her hips into Shepard's hand. Shepard groaned around Liara's crest, eliciting another gasp from her lover. Shepard started up a quick, driving rhythm while her other hand continued roaming over Liara's hardened breasts. She lowered her hand occasionally to lavish attention on her bondmate's swollen belly, each time allowing a shudder of pride and arousal to pulse through her.

It didn't take long before she felt the gentle press of Liara's mind against her own. She smiled around the extension currently occupying her mouth and circled her tongue around it as she accepted her lover's Meld. Liara's mind cascaded into her own and Shepard was immediately swept away in the undertow of love and adoration flowing from her bondmate's beautiful mind.

Liara's first orgasm left both of them breathless and Shepard was forced to release her crest as she fell into bliss with her lover. They both cried out in exquisite ecstasy when Shepard's fingers hooked, swiping over the sensitive bundle of nerves within Liara and it made them both tumble over the edge again. Aftershocks rippled through them and Shepard held Liara until their breath returned to normal, holding her tightly all the while. The possessiveness which had taken root in her boiled up in full force when she felt a soft sob well up inside Liara. She immediately sent a wave of love and reassurance through the Meld, soothing away her wife's overwhelmed emotions. Secretly, very secretly, Shepard loved how vulnerable and emotional Liara was sometimes after making love. There were certainly never hysterics, Liara just poured so much of herself and her love into their Melds it usually left the sensitive asari feeling exposed and in need of reassurance. And Shepard adored reassuring her, adored feeling wanted and needed. But then, she adored everything about Liara.

'Shepard . . . that was . . .'

'Perfect.'

'Goddess, I love-'

'-Love you. All three of you.'

Her last words succeeded in easing some of Liara's emotions and the asari rewarded her with a soft giggle. 'There is three of me, isn't there?'

'More for me to love. I'd be okay with three or ten more little Liaras running around.'

"Ten?" Liara finally spoke aloud, filling the shower with the sound of tinkling laughter. She turned in Shepard's arms to give her a mock-scolding look. "By the goddess I'm just trying to get through one pregnancy! Let's just work on twins for now, how about?"

Shepard fondly kissed Liara's cheek. "Oh if you insist."

After a lengthy shower filled with countless soft kisses and caresses, they eventually retired to the safety of their bed where they could hide from the world in a shield of fabric. Then they spent the rest of the night making love over and over, lost in wedded bliss, and secretly praying they'd never be found again.
