Rewrite the Threads - Ch. 02

'That was... intense... evening.' Holt stood behind Aleera, hugging her tightly. The ball finally ended and they returned to the 'Silvery Flame'. Now they were in Holt's cabin, surrounded by darkness, enjoying the sensation of their bodies pressed against each other.

'Was, as in has ended already?' she asked, with joyful defiance in her voice, reaching up and behind her to touch his face.

'Well, that depends, Starshine. Do you want it to end?' He kissed the nape of her neck, slowly stroking her hips with his left hand, while making a small gesture with his right. Auspexes installed within the cabin walls recognised it and turned on dimmed light and started playing slow, string music.

'Mmmmmmaybe not just yet...' she murmured, closing her eyes and indulging in the sensation of his touch. It was surprisingly gentle and considerate. 'But I'll need a little help with this dress. I'd hate to damage it.'

'But of course, my dear.' Holt stepped back, breaking off contact and reached down to the gown's clasps and slowly started to undo them. Slowly. One by one.

'You're doing this on purpose,' she whispered, eyes still closed. 'Meanie.'

'You don't like the tension building up?' he asked tenderly, stroking her ear. 'I can stop, if you want.'

'Don't you dare. I won't... ahhhh...' The rest of her words drowned in a moan when he bit the tip of her ear.

'You want? My, we'll have to work on your grammar,' he laughed quietly, sliding sleeves off of her arms.

Once she felt her hands were free of fabric, Aleera turned with fluid grace and stepped out of the gown. 'Grammar? Is that really what occupies your mind at a moment like this?' Joyous sparks flared in her eyes, as she trailed fingertips over his jaw. 'I should try harder, then.'

'Worry not, Starshine.' He smiled and kissed her on the lips. 'Right now I don't have the capacity to think of anything but you.'

'I can feel it,' she giggled. 'That bulge in your trousers is quite hard to miss.' She started slowly undoing buttons on his shirt.

'What can I say? You make my head spin in more ways than one,' Holt admitted, gently caressing her back. 'You are beautiful, Starshine.' His breath quickened, as he gazed upon her naked form.

'Finally. Getting a compliment out of you is almost as hard as that confession,' she shook her head. 'Although I probably shouldn't complain. That was a wonderful confession.' His coat hit the floor, soon followed by his shirt. 'Would you mind helping me a little with this belt?'

'Why, certainly, my dear.' He flashed her another smile, and took a step back. 'Looks like you are no less eager than me, to be fair,' he added, noticing her erect nipples.

'Oh, you have no idea how,' she admitted, sitting down on the bed and admiring the view. From the Aeldari perspective, humans were crude, rough creatures, lacking grace and refinement. And yet, she could not see that in Holt. He was larger and bulkier than any of her kin, true, but it did not make him look heavy, rather... solid. Short-cropped auburn hair in the dimmed light looked like they were on fire. Soft shadows were playing on his face and body, highlighting muscles moving beneath the skin. He had much more hair than Aeldari, true, but she found it fascinating. Especially the hair on his chest. She wanted to run her fingers through it, to feel it, to find out what it would be like. She bit her lip, imagining it brushing against her body. Same was with little imperfections of his form. Little mole on his right shoulder, barely visible scar just above his wrist, little blemish on his thigh... All that just somehow managed to make him more appealing, more real in her eyes. He was not perfect, but he was true, and bare before her. How many humans would dare to do so when facing Aeldari? 'I was considering taking you right then and there, on the floor, but I was worried your tailor would be against me shredding your shirt.' More sparks flashed in her eyes, as her gaze went up, towards his face. It went over his chiselled jawline, observed soft lips that were so warm to kiss, and lingered for a moment or three over his lovely, incredibly deep and friendly eyes, only to go down, to witness removal of the last articles of clothing. Her smile widened when she noticed how ready he was for her.

'I can't say I don't share your enthusiasm, dear,' he nodded in agreement. 'Though please, don't put us both in danger from Master Lukas.' There was a brief pause, as he looked at her and smiled. She was as perfect as the human mind could perceive without breaking. Flawless, alabaster skin. Long, silken hair, flowing around her form. Delicate, soft features were nearly human, and lovely to watch. He enjoyed the sight of her full mouth, shining eyes, and felt a little amusement once he noticed delicate twitches of her ears -- a sign of barely controlled emotions boiling just below the surface. As he drew closer, he let his gaze fall lower, to the twin mounds of perky, firm breasts that she was eagerly thrusting towards him, to the flat stomach of firm muscles playing below flawless skin, to the glistening junction between her legs... 'You look good in this jewellery. Shame you dislike lingerie, little Starshine.'

'I can consider it for you,' she smiled and leaned back, outstretched hands reaching above her head. 'For such occasions only. Now come here and stop wasting time, would you?'

He climbed the bed and lay down, next to her, reaching out to trace the outline of her form. Once she felt his touch, Aleera quivered. With closed eyes, she instinctively arched her body, all the better to guide his curious hands, to lead his fingertips where she was most sensitive. A little groan escaped her mouth as she felt his fingernails scraping sensitive skin of her inner thigh. It became louder when he cupped her breast and started kneading it. Then, she felt something warm and wet over the other nipple and shuddered. She wrapped her hands around Holt and started running them up and down his back. It was wide, compared to Aeldari, and covered in delicate hair. The sensation was unlike anything she ever experienced. And then she felt his finger entering her.

Holt kissed Aleera at the same moment she opened her mouth to howl. Muffled screams came out more like moans, while their tongues intertwined, tasting each other's mouth. As previous kisses were delicate, full of feelings and consideration, this one was fierce and passionate, brimming with lust and primal urge. He felt her nails digging into his back, scratching him to blood, but didn't feel pain. Didn't care. Her closeness, her warmth was overwhelming. Beating of heart -- although he was not sure if what he felt was his or hers -- was all he could hear, apart from her soft groans, watching her lidded eyes as he pressed inside. He could feel delicate flesh parting, as his movements, slowly at first, but gaining speed, drew more moans from her.

As their lips parted, Aleera fell back, panting heavily, trying to synchronise her hips' movements with his strokes. She could already feel tension building up in her abdomen, almost ready to spill and flood her... almost... She managed to move one hand toward her clit, but Holt grabbed her arm and stopped its movement. She fought to open her eyes and looked down surprised, not understanding why...

And at the very same moment she felt his tongue twirling around her bud.

Euphoria flooded her consciousness. Nothing existed for her anymore, apart from bliss.

Holt sat up straight, observing her delicate form in throes. Under normal circumstances, Aeldari were very able to control their hypersensitivity to external stimuli, to avoid them overwhelming their system. After climaxing, however, this sensitivity was dialled up to levels where simple touch could prove too much to bear -- especially for one as young as Aleera. He carefully made sure nothing was touching her, apart from the sheets she was resting on, and then lay down and relaxed, a smile on his lips. 'There are few things as satisfying as seeing your partner rendered unconscious by your caress,' he mused. He folded his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and sighed, content.

It didn't take Aleera long to come back to her senses. She stretched, relaxed and at ease, a warm feeling of bliss flooding her whole body. 'Well, hello, my pretty,' a soft voice came from her right, full of amusement and care. She turned her head, looked at Holt and smiled.

'You certainly know how to take care of a woman, love,' she smiled lazily, still in the afterglow. 'That was wonderful.'

He offered her a smile. 'I'm happy you liked it. Would you like to continue?'

'You know I would,' she replied, climbing over him in a single, smooth motion. She sat on top of his thighs and cupped his face, while at the same time gently pushing him to lie flat. 'But I wouldn't mind sharing some of this pleasure with you. In fact,' she reached down and carefully grabbed him, 'I believe I can do something for you as well.' She finished with a smile and leaned forward to kiss him. Her fingers carefully wrapped around his member, as she snuggled into him. Under her feather touch, Holt could only close his eyes and give in to the pleasure. As his hips started to move on their own, a purring sound started to form deep within his chest. Aleera smiled hearing this. 'Oh, you like it?' she whispered, nuzzling him just below his ear.

'You said some... ahhh... something about knowing... mmmmm... how to take care... ahh...' That was all Holt was able to put together before Aleera's hand drew even more moans from him.

'Oh, I like how you react, dear,' she whispered, clearly enjoying the situation. 'Now shush, my sweet, I'm not finished.' With these words, she straightened herself up and eyed him. Holt was writhing, rocking his hips, clearly in pleasure. She smiled, before bending over and kissing the tip of his penis.

'What are you...' The rest of his words drowned in a loud moan, as Aleera went down on him, swallowing almost his entire member in one smooth move. The sensation of her warm tongue, combined with the wet softness of her mouth and throat threatened to render him unconscious with pleasure. Her fingers, running up and down his groin only multiplied what he already felt. When she started scratching sensitive skin there he thought it was too much. She knew what she was doing, though, and chose this moment to let his penis free, only to take his testicles into her mouth and suck on them. Gasping with pleasure, he reached towards her and ran his fingers over her hair, struggling not to climax too fast.

The young Anhrathe smiled. She was ecstatic. The way Holt reacted to her caress was incredibly satisfying, and she enjoyed it deeply, just as the touch of his hands on her head. Taking him whole required her to curve her neck in a not necessarily comfortable position, and overcoming her gag reflex was quite challenging, but listening to his gasps and moans made it all worthwhile. With one final push she finally managed to take it all to the very end, sticking her tongue out, reaching towards the testicles. She heard him spasmodically gasping, and then his hands pushed hard at her head. 'What is wrong, dear?' she asked, slightly surprised.

Holt shook his head, smiling lightly, struggling to catch his breath. 'Starshine, please. I'd rather not finish that early. You are extraordinary, dearest. I never expected...'

'You never expected what? That I'd be able to please you?' she asked, playful scorn in her voice. 'You thought that I'd be an inexperienced child?'

'More like not expecting you to start this aggressively,' Holt shook his head. 'Starshine, give me some credit, would you? I know how Lady Greenblade acts and leads. And I happen to know that life on a Craftworld is not a monastery as well. I never expected you to be an innocent prude with no knowledge of sex, dear.' He paused, while sitting up. 'And I'm not complaining, mind you,' he flashed her a quick smile. 'But I'd like to point out that it will take some time to get me ready once I finish, if you forgot.'

'Oh, you humans, so fragile,' she stuck out her tongue and winked playfully, before becoming serious again. 'I want to make this clear, though -- I am not made of glass. And I do enjoy sex. And I like it rather rough, at that. Will that be a problem?'

'I don't see why it would,' Holt shrugged and winked. 'I do enjoy it as well, though it would be nice if we could still find time for some more... intimate... activities as well.'

A shudder went down Aleera's spine, when she thought of their earlier caresses. 'I'm... not against it,' she finally admitted. 'But I don't want you to treat me like a glass statue.'

'Aleera, dearest, I've seen you single-handedly defeating a damn daemon. You really think I'd consider you too delicate for anything?' Holt laughed, gently rubbing the back of her neck. He noticed this was probably her most sensitive spot. 'I enjoy both rough sex and intimate caress, my sweet. Why don't you get on all fours, so I can show you?'

'Oh, I thought you'd never ask,' she licked her lips sensually, before turning away from him and kneeling. She dropped on her elbows, forcing her neat buttocks into the air. 'Like what you see, my love?' she asked teasingly, wiggling just before his eyes.

'I absolutely adore what I see,' Holt laughed, kneeling behind her and grabbing her hips. 'Although I think I'll have to thank you for your earlier teasing,' he added, suddenly reaching forward and grabbing her by the back of the neck and pushing down. 'How do you like this?'

'Oh? And what do you plan to do?' she asked playfully, just before she felt his tongue on her lower lips. And this time, Holt was not teasing -- she felt his fingers enter her and start hitting her most sensitive spot almost immediately. She screamed into the sheets, surprised by the intensity of his caress, leaning and arching to grant him better access.

Holt held her with a strong grip, not allowing her to straighten up and kept up his assault. His tongue slid between delicate folds of flesh, looking for this very special place, while his fingers were moving inside, scraping individually, stimulating that one spot she reacted to the strongest. Her moans were growing louder, and her hips were moving faster with each stroke.

Aleera felt wonderful. She was balancing on the edge of yet another climax, and Holt's caresses were keeping her just moments before reaching the point of explosion. She was breathing hard, feeling tension building up over her whole body, when suddenly, he freed her head and stopped. It took her some time to get her breathing under control and raise her head to look at what happened, only to feel his member entering her as she did.

Holt leaned over her and grabbed her by the chin, kissing her deeply, as he started moving within her. This was everything he thought and so much more. The feeling of the soft, tender flesh around his stiff member, taste of her mouth and tongue, sensation of her buttocks pressing against his stomach, her eager rocking of her hips... All of those combined were nearly too much. He closed his eyes and focused on her warmth, as their bodies moved.

There were many words in Aeldarin to describe the feeling of pure ecstasy when one was with one's beloved. None of these was sufficient to describe what Aleera was experiencing at this moment. She pressed her face into the sheets, biting hard on them to contain a howl of pure delight. She felt orgasm building up as her partner kept pounding her in a deliberate, steady pace. She reached to where they combined and started stroking his member and fondling his testicles, drawing gasps of pleasure from him.

This latest caress from the young Anhrathe was almost too much for him. He licked his fingers, still bearing some of her sweet taste, and then slowly pressed them at the tight opening between her buttocks.

This new sensation was too much for Aleera to bear. She straightened herself up, howling in ecstasy, feeling filled to the brim. She did not remember anything afterwards.

---

Holt lay down, clutching his hand to his solar plexus and struggling to catch his breath. Aleera, in throes of pleasure, was flailing wildly, and hit him hard enough to make him lose breath. He came to in a few moments, only to find out the Aeldari was still flailing around, her eyes rolled into the back of her head, her face brimming with afterglow. Well, this sight alone was more than worth everything Holt could think of. He lay down, admiring the young Anhrathe, as the pain subsided.

This time Aleera did not come to as fast as previously. When she finally managed to focus her sight on anything, it was an unfamiliar ceiling. It took her some time to recognise Holt's cabin, and even more to remember what she was doing there. She could barely move, and formulating any coherent thought took a serious effort and time. Small wonder she didn't realise Holt was lying beside her right away. When she finally put everything together, she didn't even try to stop her mouth from curling in a warm smile. 'Hey there, handsome,' she murmured, carefully reaching to touch his chest. Only then she noticed how stiff he still was. 'Oh, by Isha, love, you didn't finish?' she asked surprised. 'What happened?'

'Just a small, unpredictable obstacle, Starshine,' he smiled with some effort. 'But I don't really mind. Your delight was simply wonderful to look at.'

'I can imagine,' she agreed, stretching. Even the gentle touch of the finest silken sheet was enough to send her back into bliss. 'Oh my. I'm sorry, but I don't know if I will be able to do anything more to you tonight.'

'You don't have to, honey. I mean it,' Holt shook his head. 'I am really satisfied, I promise.'

'Awwww... I was looking forward to seeing you climax as well,' she pouted, clearly disappointed. 'Or maybe you could do this for me? Please?' She licked her lips temptingly. Even this was enough to send a wave of pleasure across her body.

'Oh, Starshine, how could I refuse you?' Holt smiled and started to lazily stroke his penis. 'You were wonderful.'

'Thank you, Holt. But please, come over.'

Grunting with effort after all this, he kneeled beside her, pumping his member. They locked eyes, reliving moments before, so full of pleasure and feelings. Aleera managed to reach out and carefully started to tenderly scratch his groin. He gasped and quickened his movements, whimpering as her touch reached lower and started caressing his testicles.

'Please, show it to me...' she whispered, arching her back. The moment her still-erect nipple touched the tip of his penis, they both trembled, and Holt exploded all over her chest, stomach and neck, shooting long streams of pearlescent fluid. With a groan of satisfaction and exhaustion, he fell down on the bed, unable to stay up. Aleera let out a short, silvery laugh at the sight. 'I knew you'd be a sight to behold, love.'

'Happy... to oblige... Starshine...' Holt panted, gasping for breath, as pleasure flooded his mind. 'You look... good... with this... pearl necklace,' he smiled, as he managed to focus his gaze long enough to look at Aleera bathed in pearly liquid.

'I take it's some human saying, adequate to this situation,' Aleera reached to him and carefully grabbed his hand. He squeezed hers tenderly, nodding in answer to her words. 'Relax. Rest a little, my love,' she whispered, doing her best to relax.

It took them quite some time to be able to get up and go shower, before laying back down. Aleera nestled herself against Holt's warm, wide, hairy chest. 'I love you, dear. I want to stay with you.'

'I would like nothing more, Starshine,' Holt agreed, tenderly stroking her hair.
