Cursed Blessing

They had fallen asleep and as the sun rose, she had ended up spooned behind him. Her face was buried between his shoulders; one leg was over his and her hand rested over his crotch. She smiled in her sleep and gave him a squeeze.

He had also fallen asleep, enjoying the closeness of her, he had pulled his cloak over them to keep them from the chilly night winds and when she squeezed his crotch he yelped and almost jumped out of his skin.
His body jerked and she startled awake, looking around. "What? What’s wrong? "

“Your hand is what’s wrong!” he said as she was still squeezing him pretty hard.

She realized where her hand was and what it was doing. "Sorry." She released him "I don’t know why I was doing that honest."

“Thank you” he sat up and dealt with the pain. “You got quite a grip”

She blushed a bit. "Will you be alright?” Her sensitive hearing picked up noise from the forest. "Sounds like the men decided to continue after all."

“I’ll live.” he stood up to greet the men, what he didn’t realize that her being close gave him morning wood.

“Looks who’s up” one of the men said and they all laughed.

She couldn’t help but snicker herself seeing his state.

“Did you come here to make fun of me and be killed on the spot or are you ready to get out of this place and find this magician? ” he looked down on her and put all the blame on her in his eyes.

She looked away from him, then stood. She walked past him and whispered as she passed. "If they hadn't arrived perhaps I could have helped you with that." She brushed herself off then gathered her things, putting them in her pack.

A big part of him cursed at the men another one thanked them… “Alright then, we are heading further north, I heard from the locals earlier that there is a soothsayer in the mountains that could help us” the men were already ready to move off and Christian was just about ready too, he only had his ax, his clothing and a few essentials’.

She tossed her pack over her shoulder and made her way with them. She decided to walk along with Christian. They had covered a good amount of land by the time they took a rest at the noon hour to eat. She found a rock and sat on it.

“So tell me chief!” one of the men said to Christian said looked at her. “How was she?” he asked.

She looked at Christian then at the man. "It is none of your business what did or did not happen between us."

“Oooo so something did happen” the man grinned and nudged Christian.

She frowned. "I'll show you something happened." She lunged for him.

The Viking tried to push her aside but with no luck, the rest of the men and even Christian laughed at him.

She growled and knocked him onto his ass, then stood looking down at him. "Talk about whatever you want but don’t ever bring me and him up together. It’s none of your business." She turned and glared at the others. "That goes for all of you."

All of them went silent and nodded, Christian was still laughing, this time at all of them.

She went back to her place and sat down again. Once rested, they were all on the trail again. As the sun crossed the sky farther, clouds formed, hiding the sun at times. "We best find some good shelter. We may get wet tonight."

The men started to giggle at her comment and proceeded to find shelter. Christian took a moment to look what was happening between her and the men. Even if they were picking on her at times, they had moved her up the higher archy and now stood firmly.

She smirked at the men. "Ha ha." She rubbed lightly against Christians back as she passed behind him. "Good thing I didn’t say, 'Looks like we are going to get pounded hard.'

“We can find a quiet place of our own if you want” he whispered to her, looking straight forward not to draw any attention to him.

She glanced at him over her shoulder. "I'd like that."

“I’ll meet you on top of this cliff just before sunset.

She nodded, before venturing on her way collecting wood.

He set out to hunt.

They found a cave large enough for shelter. She helped bring in enough wood for the night, she had teased and laughed with the men throughout. She slipped away, walking to where she had promised to meet Christian. She sat down and waited.

There was a rumble in the distance and dark clouds at the horizon to the south. Christian had just managed to slip away and soon found that she was waiting for him. He slowly sneaked up to her like a predator to a pray. For some reason he was in a really playful mood.

She was involved in watching the clouds and lighting. She could smell the rain, the thunder rolled across the land causing her flesh to prickle.

When he was just upon her, he jumped her like she was a pray. Pulling her back from the ledge and making them roll on the hard stone surface in a playful manner.

She let out a yelp, when he grabbed her. His scent surrounded her and she laughed. She squirmed, pulled and pushed trying to get the best of him as they wrestled playfully. Managing to slip out of his embrace once only to have him grab her by the ankle and pulled her back. She laughed even harder.

He pinned her to the ground with his entire weight and looked into her eyes. His could do nothing then but look at her, it was almost like the gods and goddesses blessed her when she was an infant with incredible beauty. It was a blessing and a curse to look at her. His heart wanted her but it wanted to keep her safe too. A rumble sounded again, this time very close and it soon started to rain. His big frame shielded her from being wet.

She was breathing heavily but looked at him and smiled. Rain fell but little hit her. She lifted her lips to his and kissed him.

He let her kiss him that time. He enjoyed the feel of her firm lips pressed against his. Her tongue tracing his lips.

She moaned, licked his bottom lip then pulled on it. "You’re getting wet." She caught a rain drop on his neck and licked it away.

“I don’t mind. It’s only water and this makes it worth it” he smiled at her, he had decided earlier that day that he would show more affection to her, he still had to be careful though.

She grinned against his neck, nibbled on his ear, then licked around it. She made a satisfied sound in her chest. She returned to his lips and kissed him again.

“Please do me a favor and cut down on those. I don’t want your condition to get worse” he pleaded with his eyes.

"My condition? I like kissing you and so does the other."

“I don’t know what more of my… ‘Fluids’ will do you, maybe not even Freya can help at some point. And…” he stopped for a moment; the water from the rain was pouring down on his back as he lowered his head slightly.

Rain fell on her face, she licked at the drops. Placing her hands on his face, she made him look at her. "I am a were. I am your mate and I don’t mind it. I've gotten used to her and I don’t want to lose her." Using her strength she flipped him onto his back, straddling his waist, her hands on his shoulders. "Make love to me."

He didn’t know what to say to her. “I… I can’t” he looked away from her.

She narrowed her eyes. "Why? What is so wrong with it? If you didn't have him in you, you would have made love to me more times then we both could count. You know it. You were afraid of spreading it, but I have it already so how could it do anymore harm." She was getting angry at him.

“And what of the child?” he asked quietly.
She looked at him with a little shock. "What child? or do you mean if we have a child? We can be careful."

“I am not willing to risk it. If I were to have a child with you, I want it to be totally safe and what I carry.. the thought of the child having it is breaking my heart. As much as it is breaking my heart that you have it” all the cards were on the table. He did want a child with her but he could not let it be cursed, he could not do that to the things he loved or would love with all his heart.

She stood up. "Alright I understand, but know sometimes what we want we don’t always get. Let's get out of the rain. I am soaked and will take all night to dry my clothes."

He too stood up and lead the way to a second cave that he had prepared earlier, the small fire was already prepared and the meat and mead ready to be cooked and consumed. “I am sorry if I keep hurting you like this” he sat down by the stacked wood and looked into the fire.

"I do understand Christian." She slowly removed her wet clothes, squeezing the extra water from them, and then laying them near the fire. "You being the only...well you. Your decisions are not easy."

“I really wish I could give you a child we can call our own… I will promise this, when this curse is dealt with, I swear I will mate with you. That is if you’ll have me”

She looked at him. "Of course Christian. I love you and nothing will change that." She stood by the fire letting it dry and warm her.

He swallowed hard, the light from the fire danced over her body giving him a very seductive scene of her and his body responded in kind. Even the wolf in him made him drool and twist a piece of wood in to splinters in his hands.

She twisted her hair, making sure it was as dry as possible, then walked back around the fire to her pack and pulled out another cloak wrapping it around her. "You don’t need any more kindling for the fire." She smiled at the pieces of wood in his hands.

“Huh? ” he looked at her as if he had no idea what she was talking about. He still had hat image of her in the light of the fire and he never wanted to mate with anyone as much as right now, not even during the full moons.

She reached over and pulled his fingers apart, the wood falling to the floor of the cave. "I've heard that there are ways to pleasure each other without actually having sex." She sat right next to him and stared into his eyes.

“Oh? ” he looked back at her.

She nodded. "It's want I've heard." She drew his wet hair away from his face. She moved to her knees in front of him. Her cloak gapped, giving him another peak at her body. "When I was traveling, looking for you. I heard all kinds of things. Some made me blush still do when I think about it."

The view made him knock his head back straight into the rock. He didn’t say anything or showed anything that it hurt like hell, he didn’t want to lose the moment. She really had one hell of a body and his body responded in kind as he started to have huge issues fighting the hard on. But he failed. “And what did you hear? ” he said quietly.

She really had no clue what she was doing but she liked what it was doing to him. Her fingers found his skin under his shirt and she traced her finger along his side to his front, moving them lower. "That a woman’s mouth can be quite pleasant to a man if used correctly." She licked her lips. Her heart raced with excitement, she had never teased like this before but she just couldn’t help it.

Her teasing was unbearable, it was so bad that his nails changed into claws and with ease implanted them into the stone on the ground beside him and he pulled his hand to make large rips into the rock. “Really? By kissing? ”

"Yes, that was part of it." Her hand slipped to his ties and loosened them. "Touching with hands and tongue." Her fingers grazed his length as she leaned forward and nuzzled his throat.

Her actions made him grind his teeth a little, he pulled a large chuck of rock out of the floor with his bare hand and crushed it in his hand. He was losing, the wolf in him was never this eager to mate, and he feared of what might happen.
