Story: The WitchSlayer

She blushed at the strange sensation as she fled him.

Once she was a safe distance away, she grabbed the dress he’d, kindly enough, not torn to shreds this time.

“You promised me seasonings, and I will be having them before I cook.”

He lifted himself onto one elbow with a frown.

“That will make things take longer.”

She poked her tongue out at him. She didn’t care if it took longer. She didn’t want to eat bland food anymore.

“Your insolence is not appreciated. Return to the bed.”

He pointed to it.

She took a step forward and watched his muscles relax as a small smirk curled his lips.

Then she bolted out of the room with a giggle.

Chapter 25

Amalia had her back against the bed hours later with the furs partially across her legs to try and keep the worst of the night chill away.

She convinced him to let her pick the herbs and spices she wanted for cooking after promising she wouldn’t remove them from the cooking alcove. She didn’t know what she could make with what she’d taken, so she didn’t think she would ever need to steal any.

After she’d eaten, she hadn’t even made it out of the cooking area before he’d taken her again, this time across the table she’d just eaten at.

He does not like to wait.She knew he was arrogant and impatient, but she thought this was becoming ridiculous.

They spent the remainder of the day in her room, touching.

She was enjoying it.

He wasn’t being rough with her, so she felt like her body could keep up, and in between the bouts of sex, they would occasionally talk. This was new and exciting for the both of them, and they seemed to be making the most of it.

Amalia was surprised that she was filled with energy.

She expected herself to be feeling physically drained, but she felt alive with it, almost thrumming with it. It seemed to grow each time they had sex. Even though she would become limp afterwards, it wouldn’t take her long to feel energised.

It almost felt like energy was sparking under her skin, like tingling waves through her bloodstream and muscles. It was an exhilarating, yet strange, sensation.

She hadn’t told him this. Even when, once again, he was laying between her legs and petting one of her breasts like he was fascinated by them.

The energy seemed to radiate all throughout her body, and as much she was enjoying herself, was sated and feeling very well, she had questions and curiosities.

Playing with his hair because he was letting her, she mulled on which one to ask first.

“Why are you doing this with me?”

“Because it is immensely fun.”

She rolled her eyes. That she knew.

He frowned deeply.

“Was that not the correct answer?” He seemed to think for long moments. “I like your body and face, have already mentioned you are beautiful.”

She shook her head, like she didn’t understand.
