Letting her take the lead, Hopper was more than happy to follow.Opening not only his mind, but also his body and soul completely and totally to the only woman he had ever loved, he kept nothing back.Falling into his Mate as she kissed him with such desire and longing, Hopper was lost to all that they were together.Sliding his hands under the silk of her nightgown, he used Enchantment to rid her of the garment in little more than a thought.

Leaning back just the slightest bit, his mouth watered at the sight of her hardened nipples pushing against the thin, light pink material of a bra he hadn’t known she wore.Unable to stop, Hopper sucked first one and then the other into his mouth, teasing it with just the tip of his tongue until Hel’s fingers were tangled in his curls and she was calling his name.

Rolling them over, Hopper pushed his hips into hers, and Hel’s back arched off the bed.She ground her pelvis against his denim-covered erection, pleading, “Oh, Hopper, oh…oh…yes.With all that I am, Hopper, please, yes.I love you.”

Needing to taste and mark every inch of her, the Omnipotent Being known as Hope kissed across his Mate’s chest while reaching around her body, unhooking her bra and throwing it to the side.Immediately returning his lips to her breast, he nipped and sucked, paying extra attention to Hel’s left side.His actions were rewarded with her moans of pleasure as he felt all her doubts and fears washed away by their love.Continuing to taste every part of her body, Hel muttered his name louder and louder as her fingers dug into his scalp, pushing him to go all the way, to make her his for all time.

With no other thought but feeling the warmth of her body wrapped around his painfully hard length, Hel slid his hand between their bodies.From one breath to the next, Hopper removed the rest of her clothing, leaving her gloriously naked beneath him.Need won out over logic and his jeans immediately followed.

The feel of her body against his, the scent of her arousal filling the Castle, his name on her lips along with her feelings of conditional love and acceptance flowing through their Mating Bond was nothing short of miraculous.Hopper wanted it all.He wanted to sink into the warmth that was his Mate.He wanted to be one with his goddess, but he had to be sure.He had to know that Hel had absolutely no doubts.

Pushing his arousal aside, the Omnipotent Being known as Hope stopped all movement.Pulling back from his Mate’s body, he laid his finger to her lips just as she moaned at the loss.Waiting until she opened her eyes and speared him with glare of swirling silver, he asked, “Hel, my love, my goddess, are you sure this is what you want?Are you sure you’re ready?That I am who you want?I love you with every fiber of my being and only ever want you to be…”

Sucking his index finger into her mouth, Hel taunted the tip with her tongue as she answered directly into his mind,“I want you and only you, Omnipotent Being known as Hope.Love me and love me forever, for that is how long I will love you.”

Needing no more encouragement, his lips met hers in an all-encompassing embrace of passion and desire that made it impossible for Hope to do nothing but what his Mate and his body demanded.Still forcing himself to go slow, he pulled his lips from hers, kissed along her jaw and down her neck, across the soft sweet skin of her décolletage to her breasts.Sucking her now bare nipple into his mouth, he smiled against Hel’s flesh as her fingers were once again in his hair and her body rocked against his.

Only after paying her other breast the same attention and leaving his precious goddess panting and mewling, unable to form a coherent word, did Hopper taste across her stomach sure to leave little love bites on Hel’s left side as a reminder that he lovedallof her and always would.

Reaching the glistening half silver/half ebony curls that covered her pussy, the heavenly scent of roses and the sea took his breath away.Spreading her legs as she sought to keep them together while lost to her excitement, Hopper followed his instinct and the knowledge he’d been given for this very moment.Laying first one beautifully muscled leg and then the other over his shoulders, his desire rode him like a bucking bronco.He needed to take her more than he needed his next breath, but first things first.He had to be sure Hel’s first time was as special as he could make it.

Whispering into his Mate’s mind as he slowly pushed his middle finger through her curls and into the warm wetness of her body, Hopper murmured,“I love you, Hel Odinson Lokidottir.I always have and I always will.Thank you for accepting me just as I am and returning my love.Today is the first day of our happily ever after.May we always be as blissfully in love as we are right now.”

Her only answer was the thrashing of her head and her legs tightening around his shoulders as he pushed farther into her tight wet pussy.Pushing a second finger alongside the first, Hopper made a come-hither motion with his middle finger tickling her sensitive bundle of nerves that begged to be fondled.He reveled in Hel’s receptiveness to his touch and then grinned from ear-to-ear as she climaxed screaming his name, her juices wetting his hand from simply his fingers alone.

Pulling his fingers from her, Hopper immediately replaced them with his tongue, licking and tasting, pushing her higher, feeling another orgasm building within her before the first had completely ebbed.She called his name, pulled at his curls and her thighs wrapped so tightly around his head it was a good thing he was an Omnipotent Being and didn’t need to breathe to exist, but none of that mattered, he was pleasing his Mate, all was right with the world.

Wanting…needing her to orgasm again, he rubbed her swollen, throbbing clit between his thumb and forefinger as he thrust his tongue in and out of her, touching the proof of her virginity.Her back bowed off his pallet, her heels dug into his back, and she pulled at his hair with such force Hopper knew he would be bald but couldn’t care as she came over and over into his mouth, her screams so loud he was sure all of Helheim knew of their Queen’s pleasure.

Needing to have every drop of her essence within him, he continued to lavish her with his tongue as her contractions slowed, her breathing returned to normal, and her body relaxed.

Hel took his breath away.Laying there like a goddess, his goddess, with her head thrown back, her lips seductively curved in lazy smile, and the gentle rise and fall of her full breasts, she was absolutely the most magnificent creature he’d ever seen.Raising to his knees, he kissed his way up her body, nipped along her neck to her ear and whispered, “And now we become one, my love.”

Inch by mind-blowing inch, he slowly slid into her, stopping every little bit to let her body adjust to his size.A feeling unlike any other filled the Omnipotent Being.Nothing had ever felt so right…so perfect.Finally reaching her maidenhead, Hopper stopped, laid his lips to hers and while pouring all the love and adoration he already felt for her into that one single kiss, he murmured into her mind,“I love you, Hel.I love you with every fiber of my being, and I always will.”

Pushing through, he continued their kiss, once again blown away by Hel’s strength as she barely winced at the intrusion.Holding both he and his Mate completely still, rejoicing in the feel of her inner walls welcoming him, Hopper’s chest swelled with pride as she sighed in pleasure right along with him.He felt her arousal building, her body needing more of what only he could give her and before he could move, Hel rolled her hips, and her inner muscles massaged him, pushed him, and forced him to move with her.

Her fingers, now on his on back, ran up and down his spine.Her legs wound tight around his waist.He could feel her everywhere.They were one as it was meant to be.Hopper's mind was blown at the perfection of the moment.The Omnipotent Being known as Hope was gutted, completely and irrevocably under his Mate’s spell, and he never wanted to be anywhere else.

Her free hand touched his face, as she continued her erotic dance.Hopper’s hips match her rhythm.Their hearts beat as one and to his complete surprise his goddess whispered, "Hold on, my love.I am about to show you how to fly without wings.”

Helpless but to do anything but follow his Mate wherever she led, Hopper met Hel’s hips as she wailed his name again and again.Unable to control his passion any longer, spurred on by his goddess’s need as it flooded through their Mating Bond, he thrust in and out of her, creating a furious tempo that she met thrust for thrust.

Higher and higher their hunger grew, the need to be one so intense, so demanding, that for the first time in his very long life Hopper gave up total control.He held nothing back.All that he had ever been, all that he was and all that he would ever be burst open Hel, and only her, from that moment forward, for all eternity.They were one.No one and nothing, not even the All Father himself, could tear them apart.

Reaching between their bodies, his need for them to climax together overpowering, Hopper gently pinched her clit between his thumb and forefinger at the same time that he gave one final thrust into her and together they roared their completion to the Heavens.Moving together, loving one another as Fate and the Universe had always intended, they floated back to earth each more fulfilled than they had ever thought possible.

Rolling to his side, Hopper carefully laid Hel across his chest unwilling to be without the feel of her skin upon his for even a second.Propping her chin on her hand, she smiled at him and cooed, “I love you, Hope, and I always will, but I have one question.”

“Anything.”Smiling, he quickly teased, “Cause there will be no more secrets, not even if they have flaming red scales, a Welsh accent, and a quite lovely personality.”

“Oh, yeah, about that…”

“Not to worry, my love.Carys explained everything.”

“Well, that’s good, because she told me all about those half-dressed Amazonian Dragonesses right before I got all jealous, green-eyed, and crazy.”

“Ha!Thank the Goddess, we’ve got her.”
