Let's turn up the heat, but just a little bit ;)
Chapter 15: Shared Moments
Xena awoke the next day wrapped in his arms. The warmth that filled her soul was indescribable. She had longed for this for so long. But something still in the back of her mind was stopping her from giving in to him completely. She wanted to fully give him her heart, body, mind, and soul. Then, she started to question herself. Was this the right thing to do? Did she deserve better than this….than him? For so long, he's tormented her. Was it all out of love? To make sure she wouldn't forget about him? Of course, there were better ways to go about trying to get her attention, other than the tactics he chose. Ares had them pulled body to body, skin to skin. His body kept her so warm, there was no need for any cover. He wore only a pair of silk pajama pants, and she wore a short lace gown that barely covered her butt cheeks, thanks to Aphrodite.
She lazily ran her hand up his strong arm smiling, still reminiscing about the previous night. He held her so protectively in the hot tub, like she was the most precious gem in the world. Again, she was truly impressed by his efforts. He went above and beyond to wow her and succeeded. He could have so easily snapped his fingers and made everything just appear. But no, he set up everything, depending on mere mortals to come through on their promises. What surprised her most was that he respected her wishes. He understood that she didn't want to have sex with him right now and he didn't force it on her, whether he understood her reasoning or not. No matter her inner debate, she knew right now, she loved him. She was in love with him, and she hoped that one day, she could truly let her guard down with him completely.
She turned in his arms to face him. He was smiling back at her. She lazily threw her leg over his hip. He leaned in closer to her and she felt his member getting harder, pressing against her center through his pants, aching to be released. Ares let out a deep breath. She pulled him closer into her arms and kissed him lovingly.
"Good morning, handsome," she said once she pulled out the kiss.
"My princess," Ares responded and then placed a soft kiss on her hand. He got up from the bed to put some space between them. He didn't know how much longer he was going to last before he went up her nightgown. There was a knock at the hotel door. Xena was pretty sure it was housekeeping, as she figured the checkout time was near.
'I'll be right back my sweet," Ares informed and left the room. Xena was preparing her mind to hear that she had to get dressed and go back home. Much as she loved spending time with Gabrielle, she enjoyed his company more. He made her feel ways that Gabrielle couldn't. However, Gabrielle awoke emotions she's never felt before. Her level of compassion she possessed was something Xena was learning daily. Ares returned with a cart with covered plates. The smothering aroma filled her senses instantly making her stomach growl. She sat up in the bed and said,
"Hmm, that smells good. What do we have here?" Ares smiled and lifted the tops off of each platter.
"Food for my princess," he declared, setting the bedside table over her thighs. Her face lit up with a bright smile. Following, he placed an empty plate and an empty glass on the table. Bringing the cart closer to the bed, he took charge of serving her breakfast. On her plate, he carefully arranged french toast, a side of eggs with thick-sliced ham, and a sliced avocado.
"Powdered sugar my sweet?"
"Yes, light please sir," Xena purred. Ares lightly coated her french toast with her request. He filled her glass with freshly squeezed orange juice and handed her the silverware.
"Enjoy." He placed a tender kiss on her cheek. Xena looked at him and asked...
"Aren't you going to join me?" Ares sat next to her in the bed and materialized a plate of ambrosia. Xena stared at the sweet immortality on the plate. Ares looked at her and smiled. He whispered in her ear, "It's yours anytime you want it, sweet."
"Ares, please don't start on this..."
"Xe, I was just reminding you. Nothing more. Nothing less. Now eat up," he gestured towards her food.
~XA~
Xena went through her overnight bag to see if Aphrodite packed her any extra daytime clothes. She surely expected to be home by now, so she didn't worry about packing multiple outfits. Of course, she could always ask Ares to materialize her something, but she preferred getting ready the mortal way. After searching the bag, she saw a miniskirt and a tank. This will have to do. Ares sat on the bed watching her mind work. Once her outfit was sprawled on the bed, she let him know she was going to take a shower. She was tempted to ask him to join her, but she didn't want celibacy to be harder than what it needed to be. It was hard enough not to give in to his every touch. She wanted him to touch her dirty. To get nasty with her. Grab her by her neck while he pounded himself within her. But she also knew once she crossed that line, there was no turning back.
~XA~
She was in the shower when she heard the bathroom door open. Steam filled the shower's glass making it hard to see. She heard his footsteps approaching, getting closer and closer. Her heart started to pick up its pace. How the hell was she going to resist him if he stepped in the shower with her completely nude? That was going to be an impossible task, but she knew she did not want to have sex on the first date. Can't we at least make it to the second date? She kept showering, as if unaware he was in there. She soaped her naked body, in hopes of keeping her mind off him. Ares pulled open her shower door. Xena turned to look at him. He said with a sexy expression on his face.
"Got enough room for one more?" he asked huskily. He was completely naked. Her face flushed and she stepped over in the shower to accommodate room for him. She ran her eyes all over his body. His muscles glistened under the warm water. Her eyes roamed down to his growing cock, and it twitched. She felt herself becoming excited. Ares grabbed her face between his palms and passionately kissed her. She kissed him back with just as much passion. His hands then slowly roamed down her wet body. He stopped one hand to caress her hard nipple. Xena moaned at his advances, enjoying his every touch. He placed his warm mouth over the other nipple, slowly massaging it with his tongue. Xena gripped his wet hair tightly. Passion was overtaking her senses, and she couldn't think clearly.
"Aresssss," she moaned his name hoarsely. He pulled back from her and watched as the water ran over her perfect frame. He then dropped to his knees, licking her body on his way down.
"Say the word and I'll stop." He looked up at her to see her eyes were closed. He waited a moment longer for any kind of protest from her. One never came. He lifted one of her legs over his shoulder. He slowly twirled his tongue on her lower inner thigh moving higher and higher. She gasped. The sensations he was causing felt heavenly. She knew for sure her heart was beating through her skin now. Her grip tightened on his wet curls, as he made it closer to her center. He looked up at her again before he continued. She looked down at him, eyes glazed over, full of passion. She slowly pulled his head closer to where she wanted him. Getting the green light, Ares dived into her lips, slowly licking and sucking at her swollen clit. Xena moaned loudly under his touches. She felt a strong surge of electricity shoot through her. She was on her way to oblivion. He noticed the leg she was standing on trembling.
"Wrap your arms around my neck." Xena moved on command. Ares then placed her back against the wall and lifted her other leg on his shoulder. Xena leaned over him as he pleasured her with his talented tongue. She felt her pleasure rising. She was going to explode any second. Ares kept his mouth on her clit sucking more and more. He could tell by her moans and wiggles he was about to send her over the edge.
"Aresss I'm gggonna..."
"...rain in my mouth, my sweet." At his request, she exploded into his mouth and her body shuddered. Ares lapped up all her juices, savoring her taste. It was a release she didn't realize she needed but well appreciated. Ares placed her back onto her feet once her orgasm had completely washed over her. Her legs felt like jelly. He stood back up, looking her deep into her eyes. The water ran into his eyes, but he was unbothered. Her baby blues shining back at him, fulfilled.
She pulled him into her embrace, his hard cock, resting on her stomach. She kissed him and whispered ever so lowly in his ear,
"Let me help you with that." She dropped down to her knees and tenderly took his massive cock into her hands. She slowly began to massage the head. "Don't use any powers," she commanded. She knew with his powers; he could last an eternity if he chose to. She licked around his cock before tenderly taking it into her mouth, never breaking her gaze from him. Ares moaned with pleasure, while gingerly massaging her scalp. She then adjusted her jaw, taking in all of him. He hit the back of her throat. Luckily for her, she didn't gag easily. She felt his grip on her hair getting tighter and tighter. She understood that he was going to come any moment. She only hoped she was causing him as much pleasure as he had caused her. She pulled her mouth off of him and said,
"Don't hold back," and took him back in. She felt his hand go from gripping her hair to pushing the back of her neck towards him as she sucked. With a loud growl from him, she felt his hot godhood coating her mouth, sliding down her throat. She held his cock in her mouth until it was done pulsing. He pulled her up and placed both of his hands on her ass cheeks.
"Wow," was all he said, and they both laughed. Xena nuzzled her head in the crook of his neck. She looked at her skin and it looked like a prune. Ares placed a kiss on her head and turned the water off.
"You're clean enough my love," he smiled and took her hand, leading her out the shower. He grabbed her bath towel and dried her off. He lotioned her body while, giving her muscles a light massage. He later wrapped her bath towel around her and led her to the bedroom. He snapped a towel around his lower half, in case house keeping was around. Neither one of them really would have known until they exited the bathroom. He kissed her head and told her to meet him in the front room once she was dressed. After he left the room, Xena fell back onto the bed, feeling fulfilled. She looked over at the clock. Noon. With a loud sigh she said,
"That was amazing." She put on her outfit and exited the bedroom, eager to explore what else was in store for them.
