"Alex… hey… wake up!" I heard, as I slowly opened my eyes. I woke up looking up at the swaying branch limbs with the flickering green leaves blowing in the wind, as the sun seeped through them. The breeze had a cool temperature to it.
As I lay there in agony listening to the symphony of nature, I wondered where I was… and who said my name… Oh… right! Celest! I turned my beaten-to-a-pulp head towards her, as she was smiling with her radiant smile and looking at me with those alluring blue eyes.
"Hey there!"
"Hey… how long was I out?"
"About thirty-six hours… I stitched you up and made breakfast, a beef stew… here!
"Thank you, Celest." I slurped down the beef juice in the bowl… "AHH! SHIT!" It burned the cuts on my lips and inside my mouth. It was hard to chew because my gums were still sore from the blows to my head and face.
"You know… You are very brave, Ser Alex… a true warrior. I can't believe you went into this knowing you were more than likely not coming back alive. Your intentions are honorable, which is very admirable."
"Well, someone had to do it."
"Do you not fear death?" she asked.
"I already told you; I fear nothing, I feel nothing. The only thing I care for in this life is you."
"Then why give it all up for a one-way mission and a slaughter?"
"Because… in war and blood… requires sacrifice a lot of it, and I was willing to give because of my love for you, your father, and your mother… and for the lot of Greengrass… to protect my home and the people in it."
"Oh, Alex… your heart is pure, but I thought you said you felt nothing…?
"Yeah, I feel nothing for the man who meets my blade or anything and anyone else who isn't a part of Greengrass."
"Oh, I see. Well, I admire your loyalty to the kingdom, ser Alex, but next time I advise you to think about me, because I do not want to lose you."
"Yes, Milady… I will try my best." I confirmed to her, as I gave her a broken smile and bruised eyes.
We sat at our camp just resting a while from the exhilarating fight. Then nightfall approached, as the pale moon shone like the aligning stars. The sound of crickets and frogs creaking and croaking by the lake nearby. I decided to get naked and rinse off in the lake. As I was taking off the clothing, the blood was stuck to my shirt like dried mud. It was excruciating, but it had to be done. So, I just ripped it off… stung like hell.
As I was naked, Celest looked like she liked what she saw, as she bit her bottom lip… not that she hadn't already seen it. I walked over the lakeshore and felt the sandy clay in between my toes as I slowly made my way into it. It was brisk at first, but it got warmer after a few minutes.
I stood there with my neck and head above the water, admiring the dark, brooding sky above, seeping slices of moonlight through the clouds, creating a spectacular reflection through a ripple in the languid water.
I cleaned off the blood with the water and dunked my head beneath the surface to slick my hair behind my ears. I just stood there relaxing for a while, when I looked behind me because of a noise I had heard, and there she was… a very naked and wholesome Celest coming in after me. Her breasts were perfectly sculpted by the Gods, as were her curvy hips and features. Her creamy skin was glowing in the moonlight.
…BOING…
She swam over to me and wrapped her legs around my hips. I was throbbing at this point, as she wrapped her arms around the back of my neck and leaned in for a kiss with her sweet, tender, and moist lips.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
We both said to each other, as we were breathing heavy from the lust we had for each other. Right then and there, we had a powerful moment of pure… passionate… carnal… instinct. Filled with nothing but sensual pleasure under the stars. Pure ecstasy.
