MTL NOVEL Chapter 66: The Promise (1)
Bliss clung tightly to Sil, taking in a quick breath in surprise. Sil's arms wrapped around her athletic frame tightly in return. He smirked as the thickly wooded forest and warm summer breeze dissolved, vanishing from the world around them. As the visage of reality dissipated, it was simultaneously replaced, the new environment materializing right before their eyes.
Bliss gawked as the realization of what had occurred started to unravel in her mind. Sil wore a wry smile as he said to her in a smug tone "teleportation-" Sil had to admit that hearing her gasp like that as she tightened her hold around him, like a small frightened creature, gave him a smug sense of satisfaction.
Seeing his grin and hearing his words, well- the one word he said- everything clicked. Teleportation, he had not only listed another ability currently copied, but apparently decided to demonstrate it as well.
Suddenly a slight sense of foreboding crept over Bliss, as she realized that she had no idea where they had gone. "Where are we?"
Golden sunlight spilled generously through the windows of the one-room cabin, brightening every rustic corner. The air hummed lazily with warmth, carrying a scent of fresh pine.
Sensing her dismay he tried to quell her fears. "We are still on the property, don't worry." He maintained his smug expression as the tension rose, showing on her face. "This is the hunting cabin, the Blade estate is pretty large, it's a small distance from the main building.
I had planned to just— take you right there on the forest floor if I'm being honest—" Sil looked at her hungrily. Bliss blushed bright pink at the very thought. The enjoyment written on his face when her cheeks brightened, was almost palpable.
The single, modest room spoke plainly of simplicity and function rather than comfort. A sturdy, solid oak bed frame dominated the far corner, its double mattress covered with crisp, pale linen bedding that was quite plush, and cool to the touch, as Sil gently set Bliss down on the lush mattress.
Opposite the bed, a compact kitchenette stood modestly, consisting of a small, aged porcelain sink, wooden cupboards, worn smooth by decades of use, and a compact propane stove.
As she explored the cabin with her eyes Sil took a step back before removing his simple t-shirt, pulling it over his head in one fluid motion.
Suddenly there was something else for her eyes to explore, and Bliss did not hesitate this time. Bliss traced the lines of his body, taking her time to enjoy every single peak and valley of his smooth, sun-kissed, muscular frame. The heat burning brightly within her roared with an unyielding desire.
The fire of longing raged and caused a thirst to rise up into her throat, the likes of which she had never felt. Her thirsty eyes explored and drank in every taught muscle of his Grecian godlike physic.
Damn
Was the only word that came to mind as she licked her lips, her throat growing unbearably dry.
Sil's blond hair hung loosely in place, just long enough for him to run his fingers through it, brushing it back, away from his face. His grin had vanished, his face now looking very serious. The eyes however, betrayed his true thoughts. Ravenously, his piercing gaze scanned her body, seemingly doing the same thing that she had been.
Bare plank floors creaked slightly underfoot, softened only by a faded woven rug. The windows, propped open wide, invited a gentle breeze, that played with the loose tendrils of Sil's hair, causing them to dance about at the sides of his face.
Warm sunlight brightened every rough-hewn edge and crack in the timber wall. As well as reflecting off of the pale skin and chiseled body of the godslayer.
When he tossed his shirt to the side she couldn't hold back any longer, her self control had finally reached its limits. Two gentle hands were placed on his wash board stomach, sitting up directly in front of him.
Sil stared down at her, lewd thoughts flooded his brain once more. Reaching out he took her hands in his and pulled her up so that she was standing.
"I didn't think it wise for me to do anything so- Private- no matter how practical, so close to an orphanage, and school that houses children possessing special abilities." He chuckled faintly.
Bliss hadn't even thought of that. She felt foolish, and a little embarrassed. Those thoughts however, were quickly dispelled as Sil leaned his head down to claim her lips once more. "Now, where are we?"
Sil called attention back to the task at hand. He wrapped an arm around her waist as the other cupped her cheek gently, bringing her in for another delicious kiss on the lips.
"Oh yeah— my abilities? Why did you ask?" His hands slid down her sides and groped her round bottom greedily. He lifted her gently, pressing their bodies together.
It was Bliss this time who smirked, a hint of mischief ignited in her eyes. Suddenly her hands found his belt and then made quick work of unfastening his pants. "I wanted to know what you are capable of right now. How strong are you currently?"
Sil froze for a brief second, curiosity and suspicion flashing across his eyes. But then he simply threw his head back and laughed. "I mean, I am not going to lie, I am pretty powerful right now. If you are concerned though, I promise, I won't hurt you." He started to lean in to continue kissing and exploring her body. "— unless you ask me to."
Her apologetic smile held a hint of trepidation. She tugged on Sil's belt loops, turning him around so that his back was facing the bed. "Sil, there's only one thing I want you to promise me." Her grin became more sinister, the light burning in her eyes darkened.
Sil raised a curious eyebrow. "Which is?" his whole body trembled when her graceful fingers dipped below the hem of his trousers, her delicate hand gently sliding across his abdomen just above the edge of his briefs.
"Do you remember when I mentioned finding someone suitable?" Bliss gently pushed his shoulders, coaxing Sil to sit back onto the bed. He nodded to her quickly, still a hint of confusion lingering on his face.
Next she removed her scant top, similarly to Sil, with a single, swift, movement. Her modest, yet perky breasts slid out, causing Sil's body to quiver with excitement.
He placed his hands on her hips, sliding a finger on each side beneath the top of her skirt, with a few tugs he managed to slip the garment down far enough that upon release, the troublesome skirt simply fell the rest of the way to the floor. He kissed the soft flesh of her stomach, then again just a little higher, and then a bit higher still.
He looked up at her and she caught his chin with a nimble index finger as he started to move in for another taste of the sweet, supple, skin at the bottom of her breasts. Their eyes locked on each other and she pressed forward with her body, sliding one leg at a time on to the bed.
"Promise me you won't hold anything back. You don't have to worry about me, or protect me." Bliss pushed Sil back, crawling forward, until she was straddling his body with her legs on either side. His eyes narrowed at her request.
"I mean it. Promise me. That is the only thing I ask. You can do anything you want, I will do everything—" Bliss reached down, taking Sil's hands with her own. Without breaking their gaze, she placed his hands onto her breasts. Holding them there, she slowly rotated her hips, grinding on him very lightly, at first.
Sil held his breath waiting for the rest of the message, desire rising in his core, as he felt his body respond to the sight of her petite and completely naked body grinding herself against him.
After a moment or two, once she saw a strange new kind of hunger spark within Sil's eyes, she began to move his hands. Slowly, she laced her fingers through Sil's, pulling his arms up, and holding his hands above his head, her upper body sliding over onto his until her breasts rested flush against his chest. The sensation of her delicate skin resting against his was causing a strong reaction in his body.
She kissed him deeply. Bliss ran her tongue along his jaw to his ear, then around the lobe's edge. Playfully, she nibbled lightly before resting her lips there. Bliss breathed magic into his ear, her warm voice like the very breeze of summer, whispering "If you can promise me you won't hold back—" she suddenly bucked her hips slightly, this time grinding a bit rougher, "I swear, you can do anything you want to me."
