Having pretty much given up on sparring with me, at least for today anyway, Moordryd led me towards the lift. Even when we were standing alone and he gave my hand a squeeze I didn't respond.
"Hey you were pretty drac. I heard you knocked the stablebrat on his rear." Moordryd joked and I just sighed, looking towards the floor of the lift and he frowned not sure why I was so depressed. "Come on, you'll get better." He said as the lift door opened and we stepped out, Moordryd taking my hand before I could wander away.
"No I won't. You saw how reckless I am." I asnwered looking up and Moordryd gave me a slight grin. "Okay maybe I overreacted before but I'm scared about making a mistake."
"That's why you're so tense? Rayne, if you're afraid of failing then you will." Moordryd told me and I blinked, confusion on my face and he rolled his eyes.
"Hey that's not fair. I'm trying my best and you say that I'm a failure?" I growled as he released my hand. "Thanks a lot, Paynn you're a big help." I snarled as shoved past him, making my way towards the house. This might have seemed a foolish move by Moordryd but as it turns out he already had a plan that would help me focus. Or so he told himself anyway as he took his time, following me from a safe distance away.
By the time Moordryd caught up I was standing in the bathroom, hoping that a shower might make me feel a little better or at the very wash the sweat from my body. After spending the next minute or so adjusting the water so it was hot enough to be comfortable but not burn me further, I grabbed the hem of my shirt and just as I tugged it up and over my head I heard a cough. With my arms still in the shirt I turned to see Moordryd standing in the doorway, looking me up and down. Letting out a whistle he strolled towards me and I scrowled at him.
"Why are you here?" I muttered and he shrugged, annoying me further. When he stopped in front of me, he grinned and I shook my head at him. "Look I'm trying to take a shower in peace." I finally sighed as I resumed taking my shirt off. Once I stripped it off I hunched over, intending to removed my pants next only pausing with my fingers on the hem when I noticed that Moordryd was still in the room. "Okay what part of 'I'm trying to take a shower' did you not understand? Maybe I should talk slower." I muttered as I struggled for a moment before I slid my pants down, stepping out of them and after a slight hesitation I just left them where they fell.
"You're a slob." Moordryd sighed as he walked over and retrieving my pants set them neatly on the sink before he turned to me, giving me a smile once he noticed me standing there in just my underwear. As he tilted his head and grinned I rolled my eyes as he gave me another slow once over. I was still pretty annoyed at him, Artha and my failed training though as I turned my head slightly I noticed Moordryd was still in the room and I felt a shiver run through me when I realized he had no intention of leaving. "I'm dating a slob." Moordryd muttered as he walked over to the door and I let out a breath, thinking he was going to leave only to see the door pushed closed and my eyes narrowed as Moordryd leant against the now shut door.
"Just for the record I'm not a slob. I leave my pants on the floor, once, and suddenly a war breaks out." I grumbled reaching up to unclip my bra only to stop and whirl around, raising my eyebrows at my audience. "Do you mind?" I asked and Moordryd's lips curled up at the corner.
"Of course not. Carry on." He replied, motioning with his hand to me to continue undressing. Hands on my hips at this point I walked over until I was face to face with Moordryd, who had the same stupid grin on his face.
"Okay I am not, repeat, not undressing in front of you. Oh and why are you here anyway?" I asked, crossing my arms against my chest not understanding why Moordryd's smile grew a little bigger.
"I'm here because I wanted to know why you're acting so tense." Moordryd answered as I turned around and for a few seconds I lowered my eyes, unable to explain why I was so upset. Truthfully I wasn't mad at him or anyone other than myself having proven once again that I was a failure as the Light Booster. As if he could sense my frustration, I heard footsteps approach and suddenly Moordryd's arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me against his chest. "Its not just the training, huh?" He asked as I sighed, closing my eyes for a moment.
"I don't want to fail at being the Light Booster." I answered and his grip on me tightened. Now pressed against his chest I could hear his heartbeat and for some reason it made me feel calmer. "I want to protect everyone not just myself."
"That's a lot of one person to handle. Maybe you should focus on yourself first and see how that goes." Moordryd suggested and I opened my eyes, tilting my head back to see him smile at me and for the first time in a while I smiled back, knowing he was right. Not that I'd tell him that of course. A few minutes passed and then I felt Moordryd's grip on me loosen. "I should let you get back to your shower." He said as his arms slipped off my waist but as he started for the door I grabbed his arm. This time he raised an eyebrow at me, not sure why I stopped him until I stood on the tips of my toes and kissed his lips. That caught Moordryd off-guard and as I stepped back releasing his arm, he blinked down at me as my cheeks flushed.
I had only given that kiss as an apology, feeling awful about the why I'd acted. But then Moordryd moved towards me as I headed towards the shower, cheeks still red from embarassment and wrapped his arms around my waist. At the same time I felt his lips brush my left shoulder and I sighed, a slight shiver flowing through me. Then he nibbled my neck and I whimpered, knowing that he wasn't going to let me shower in peace after all. And I was okay with that, in fact more than okay.
Moordryd held me against his chest his mouth closing over my shoulder and as he nibbled and kissed it, I trembled as one of his hands moved closer to my bra. I knew what was coming and I didn't even care, just hoping he kept holding me. The click of my bra clasp sounded opsoibly loud, the only other sound coming from the water spray and as I tilted my head back Moordryd slipped the bra from my chest. Then he cupped my bare breast in his hand, gently squeezing it before his thumb massaged the nipple.
"Didn't you want to be alone?" Moordryd whispered, one arm wrapped securily around my waist while his other hand teased and massaged my breast and I groaned in response.
"Before I did..." I muttered and I heard a faint chuckle before he took his arm off my waist and when he cupped both breasts, one in each hand, he pressed them together. "Not...now." I groaned as he massaged both nipples with his thumbs, gently kissing my shoulder. In the back of my mind I had wanted him here, to keep me from giving up .
"Rayne...you don't need to fight Armeggaddon on your own." Moordryd told me, his lips brushing against my throat and I sighed as he teased my body. "I'm here and I'm pretty sure the Dragon Blunder would help."
"Why do you have to keep being so mean to him? He wants to stop a dragon-human war." I answered between gasps as Moordryd nuzzled my neck, his fingers pinching my nipples.
"Yeah but we are rivals." Moordryd muttered as he kissed my throat, both hands cupping my breasts for a moment before he chose to release them. "What did you expect?" He asked walking around me as I stood there, an eyebrow raised at him.
"Well I dunno. Maybe a little more self control...ugh!" I groaned, realizing too late that Moordryd wasn't finished not by a long shot. I struggled not to shiver as his tongue flicked across my right breast, his teeth nibbling before his mouth closed over it, lightly sucking on the nipple. Each time I gasped, Moordryd's mouth sucked just that little bit harder. In a manner of minutes I was gripping his shoulders for dear life panting heavily, as he licked my breast.
"What was that about self-control? I wasn't listening." Moordryd chuckled, looking up to see a faint blush appear on my cheeks. "Were you saying something?" He asked, ignoring the glare I gave him as he went to work on my left breast this time. I bit back a groan, back arching as he licked my breast and the feeling on his warm tongue on my bare skin sent waves of pleasure flowing through my stomach.
"You're a Paynn in the rear, you know that?" I mumbled, eyes still shut tight and he smiled for a moment. When his tongue left my breast I slowly opened my eyes, curious as to why he'd stopped only for Moordryd's arms to wrap around my waist drawing me towards him. The kiss that followed left me panting a little and he chuckled.
"Interesting use of my last name. And for the record...yes I know." Moordryd answered, cupping my chin and as he trailed kisses along my jawline I tried to roll my eyes.
"Thought so. So you followed me here to do this, huh?" I whispered, my heart beating a little faster when I felt Moordryd's hand slip further down my waist. I didn't want to admit it out loud but I was really enjoying myself. Especially when Moordryd squeezed my backside and I almost jumped out of my skin, letting out a yelp which turned into a purr as he rubbed his hand against my rear. "Called...it, Moordryd." I mumbled and he laughed,pulling me against his chest and giving me another drac kiss.
"To be truthful I was trying to cheer you up." Moordryd answered as I snuggled against his chest and I let out a snort, making him glance at me. "Alright I followed you more because I knew you'd take a shower than to cheer you up. I don't see you complaining." He admitted and I giggled, knowing that he was right. "Did it work?" He asked a few seconds later and I lifted my head, standing on my toes and giving his cheek a kiss.
"Yeah it worked great." I replied as he wrapped his other arm around my waist, holding me against his chest. But even with his body heat I shivered and Moordryd stared at me for a moment before he gave me a nod. Taking me by the hand he led me to the shower and I grinned, walking under the shower head only to gasp suddenly as I remembered too late that the water had run cold.
"Whoa...t..too...c...cold." I gasped from shock and his lips curled up giving me an amused smirk. Standing just out of range of the spray he reached up and adjusted the water as I stood shivering, arms wrapped around myself as I tried to keep warm.
"You're hopeless." Moordryd muttered, earning a glare from me. "I guess there's nothing else I can do but..." I watched as Moordryd hunched over, removing his boots before he grabbed the hem of his shrirt and tugged it over his head. My eyes going wide as he reached down, taking his time as he unzipped his extremely tight pants. My jaw dropped then as he slowly tugged them down and off, knowing full well that he had my complete and undivided attention. Now standing in his boxers he folded both articles of clothing. After setting them down neatly on his boots he straightened and I blushed as he walked over, giving me the smallest of smiles before he joined me under the shower. "Need a hand?" He asked and getting a blank stare he rolled his eye, reaching for the soap to our left.
"With what exactly?" I managed to ask, finding my voice as he moved closer and drapped one arm loosely around my wasit. "Oh...okay." I added as Moordryd started to soap my left shoulder. For the next few minutes we didn't speak and that suited me fine as I tried to figure out just how I was going to be any help as the Light Booster. As if he could read my thoughts Moordryd glanced down at my face for a moment.
"You're never this quiet. Not like that's a bad thing." Moordryd asked, grinning when I tilted my head back and he saw the frown. "Seriously though what's on your mind?"
"Apart from my failures as a booster..." I answered as he moved to my other shoulder, gently soaping it. "I really don't want anyone getting hurt."
"Rayne, that's not exactly something you can avoid. Besides I'm pretty sure Bianca had the same doubts." Moordryd said, his hand now moving to my back and I managed a slight grin.
"Yeah maybe you're right." I answered and Moordryd paused, giving me a huge grin that casued me to roll my eyes. "Don't get a big head." I added and he chuckled before he returned to washing me. As I stood there I felt Moordryd's hand moved further down my back, making me shiver a little as I knew just where he was heading.
Once he saw me tense up, he frowned slightly before his arm slipped from my waist. Seconds passed before Moordryd cupped my butt and I let out a slight gasp. "Heh usually you're groaning by this point." Moordryd pointed out and I shrugged, earning me a chuckle for my will power alone. Not that that did me much good as he set down the soap on the holder to the left of us.
"Glad to see you've finally...given...up?" I trailed off as Moordryd reached down towards my pants. Before I could blink he'd slipped them around my ankles and I raised my eyebrows, a little shocked at his boldness. "Maybe not." I admitted and after a moment's hesitation I stepped out of them, leaving me blushing furiously though with a slight smile on my face.
"Giving up? Not really." Moordryd commented as he danged my underwear in front of me amd I rolled my eyes. "Making a different approach? Yes."
Giving up on my boyfriend leaving me in peace I returned to standing under the shower head, my head tilting back as Moordryd's arms wrapped their way around my waist. The next few minutes we enjoyed the heat of the water and each others company though it didn't take Moordryd long to find my elft ear. When he started to tongue it I sighed, eyes closing and as he increased the pace of his tongue I let out a little groan, feeling his grip tighten. I don't know why because if Moordryd thought I'd try and escape he was wrong.
