A Paladin's Journey Ch. 10

In a moment of mischief, he put a hand on each of their bottoms and gave them a shove, sending them careering into the water with a splash and a squeal. Laughing, he leaped in after them, sighing in contentment as the hot water soaked his skin. Gods, he really hadn't had a bath for far too long!

He waded to the opposite side and closed the valves; the pipes were wide and the bath was already full. Two excited-looking Elves waded towards him as he turned back, their eyes shining in the firelight. He embraced them, and they came into his arms together, each of his thighs sliding between theirs.

"Who goes first?" He asked them, studying each of their pretty faces in turn.

"Liaren," Induin said, looking at her sister. "She saw you first, after all."

Liaren turned and gave Induin a grateful look. "I would have let you go first, you know."

"I know," Induin replied. "But I want it to be you." She moaned when Liaren leaned in and kissed her thoroughly. Aran just watched them, more in love than ever before. He enjoyed watching them together almost as much as being with them himself.

They kissed for long moments, but finally Induin broke away, giving Liaren space to straddle Aran's waist. When she went to move back a bit more, Liaren shook her head.

"No," she said, turning to Induin. "You stay right here, with us. I want to feel you next to me."

With a grin, Induin came up behind Liaren and held her, softly kissing her shoulder and pulling her wet hair to the side to get to her neck.

Aran took Liaren by the waist then and inserted himself into her waiting body. She gasped as he entered her, and her hands came up to hook behind his neck.

"Yesss!" She breathed hotly, gyrating her hips as her ass came to rest on his balls.

Aran began to thrust languidly, in no rush, and Liaren tilted her head back, a smile on her face. She leaned back into her sister, but kept her hands where they were around Aran's neck. Induin took advantage and cupped Liaren's tits while her lips and tongue played along her ears, her neck, her jawline.

Aran felt Liaren's quivering pleasure through the vala; between him and Induin, she would be a storm of climaxes in no time, even if Aran did nothing extra with his power.

"Don't wait," Liaren told him breathily. "Just do it!"

"Come in her, Aran," Induin said hotly, her face next to her sisters. She pinched Liaren's nipples between her thumbs and forefingers, eliciting a gasp from her twin. "Fill up her tight little cunt!"

Aran let go of his control and immediately felt his balls lift and begin to boil. Just before his seed began to shoot forth, he felt something shift in his vala, and he knew what it meant: Liaren would fall pregnant.

He held her close as he came deep inside her. Induin brought her sister forward and pressed her against Aran's chest so they could share the moment together. They'd made love plenty of times, but this felt different. Special.

Liaren wrapped her arms around Aran's neck and her legs tightened around his buttocks, locking him in place. Induin held her sister closely from behind, kissing her cheek softly and caressing her hair.

The three meldin stayed like that for long minutes afterwards, the bath chamber quiet except for the crackling of the fires and the gentle lapping of the water as it settled.

Eventually, Induin spoke. "My turn," was all she said, fixing her gaze on Aran. There was no cheekiness this time, no playfully sassy attitude. Her sapphire eyes burned with fierce love.

Liaren slowly disengaged, pressing her lips to Aran's as she slid off his rod. Induin quickly took her place, sheathing him inside her hot snatch with a sigh of satisfaction. She began to grind against him right away, her slender body undulating as she rode his cock insistently, almost forcefully.

Liaren stayed with them, a hand on each of their lower backs, her fingers softly stroking their skin. Induin's eyes remained on Aran's, never once leaving, even when her mouth opened and her breathing quickened. She came hard, the hot, silken vice of her pussy gripping him urgently.

"Do it," she whispered, clutching his face in her hands and putting her nose to his. "Do it now, please," the last came out as a whimper as she succumbed to another wave of pleasure.

Aran could feel her warm breath on his lips. His hands found the globes of her ass and he pulled her down harder, burying himself completely in her willing body. "I'm going to give you a child," he whispered in her pointed ear.

She shuddered in response, and her hips began to buck faster. The water around them began to churn and splash with their movements. Aran let go and his cock spasmed wildly, spewing hot seed into his beautiful Elvish lover. His arms came around her back and he squeezed her tightly. His lips found the soft skin of her neck and he moaned deeply as his own pleasure combined with Induin's and Liaren's through the melda, creating a maelstrom of ecstasy they shared together.

***ELAINA: Emerin Chapel, Ekistair***

Elaina stirred restlessly. She was not quite asleep, but not yet awake. Her body felt flushed, hot. She was beginning to sweat beneath the sheets, and she kicked them off feebly, exposing her skin to the cooler air of the room. Her nipples hardened into aching points instantly, and she moaned softly as another surge of pleasure crashed through from Aran's melda.

What was he doing down there? She could feel him below, glowing like the sun, though her vala was not yet restored enough that she could tell anything else. His arousal was roaring; he must be fucking Liaren and Induin. Lucky things.

There was a pleasant tingling in her breasts and belly as Aran's feelings affected her. She squeezed her thighs together, wanting to feel some friction between them. There was another sensation, too; a slight burning from several different places on her body; one beneath her right eye, and several on her arms and legs. A more distinct burn came from her right side, just below her ribs.

That's right, she'd been stabbed. She felt at the wound gingerly, peeling back the dressing. The bandages were wrapped all the way around her torso, just beneath her breasts. It wasn't painful, exactly, it just felt hot. To her surprise, the wound had mostly closed up, and it continued to heal rapidly even as she felt at it.

Aran's vala surged again, and Elaina felt it flow through her, just before the burning feeling intensified. A few moments later it was gone, leaving smooth skin where moments ago there'd been a nasty knife wound. She didn't need to check her arms and legs to know those cuts and gashes had disappeared, too.

Suddenly, she felt as healthy as a spring foal. 'Aran Sunblade,' she muttered as she sat up and put her feet on the floor. 'What miraculous thing have you discovered now?' Even with the support of the vala, full recovery should have taken at least a day or two. She was sure Aran had healed her, somehow. But how?

With her returned strength, her vala was also restored, and she used it to get a feel for the Chapel and its current denizens. Unsurprisingly, there was a fair bit of sex happening down below, and not just where Aran and the twins were concerned. Elves and Humans alike were happily pairing off or gathering in groups to make love. Not all of them were going somewhere secluded, either. Some were quite happy to express their desires in front of an audience.

Elaina smiled. For the first time in her memory the Chapel was alive with souls again. The smile slipped, however, when she felt Smythe and Kedron nearby, still healing. What could be done for them had been done, she was sure. They just needed time.

Rising from the bed, she removed the rest of her bandages and stretched, enjoying the renewed power flowing through her muscles. Opening the door, she stepped out into the hallway, not bothering with clothing. From the feel of what was happening downstairs, things were escalating quickly, and her nudity would not be an issue.

Before heading down to find Aran, she peeked in on Smythe. The brawny Paladin was lying on his bed looking pale as a sheet, though his breathing was steady. It looked strange, like a mountain lying down. She'd never seen him like this in the thirty years she'd known him.

He didn't stir when she whispered his name, and she couldn't blame him; she could feel the three dark wounds he carried, along with a multitude of less severe ones.

"May you heal quickly and well, my friend," she said softly before gently closing the door.

Kedron and his girl were in the next room along. A quick look inside showed the young par'vala asleep on his back with his meldin curled up beside him. When the door creaked, Imella sat bolt upright, her eyes wide with fear.

Elaina stepped into the room and closed the door behind her. "Hush, now," she soothed the frightened girl. Gods, the poor thing was bruises head to toe! She looked as bad as Ayla did when they'd taken her off the Heralds! "I'm a friend."

She aligned with Imella, and felt barely constrained fear, dominated only by a deep and fierce love for Kedron. Elaina smiled. The girl had a good heart.

Imella settled somewhat after the alignment. Someone had found her a white cotton dress, and it looked like she'd had a bit of a wash, but Elaina could feel the burning stripes on her back where she'd been lashed.

"He won't wake," Imella whispered as Elaina approached the bed. The younger woman brought her knees up to her chest and hugged them as she looked down at Kedron, her brow furrowed with worry.

"And he will not for some time," Elaina said gently, taking a seat on the edge of the bed. Imella was a pretty girl, with big brown eyes and full lips. She was plump in the chest and had a nice curve to her hips, too. Kedron had certainly chosen well. Reaching out, Elaina placed a hand on Imella's bare foot. "He is fortunate to have you with him, Imella'meldin," she offered encouragingly.

The younger woman gave her a grateful smile in return, then her eyes dropped lower, to Elaina's bare chest. Her eyes widened. "You're naked!" She blurted as if just realising the fact.

Elaina chuckled. "Yes, my dear. I awoke moments ago and decided to forgo clothing, at least for now."

"But people will see your..." She gestured to Elaina's breasts, and then lower.

"No doubt they will," Elaina responded with a smile. "You will find that things are different, among the arohim, my friend. In fact, my nudity is quite a small matter beside what is unfolding downstairs."

Elaina's vala was painting a clear picture of that very thing. Inhibitions were being discarded more readily by the minute, and the Elves and Rostiners were beginning to have a very good time. With her body restored, Elaina was more than ready to join them, at least after she'd fucked Aran to within an inch of his life.

Imella nodded, understanding. "I've felt different since the first time I was with him," she nodded toward Kedron. "In my body, I mean. I feel more... like me. More free."

"It is one of the many benefits of being a meldin," Elaina explained as she rose from the bed. Imella's eyes wandered over her body before she caught herself and looked back down at the bed, blushing.

"Do not be embarrassed," Elaina told her, stepping closer and lifting the girl's chin with a finger. "You are one of us, now, and there are few secrets among the arohim." Imella lifted her eyes to meet Elaina's. "You are attracted to me, are you not?"

The dark-haired girl nodded after only a moment's hesitation. "I've never liked women before," she confessed. "But there is something about you."

"I like you too," Elaina said warmly, kneeling beside the bed. "Hopefully soon we can explore that together. For now, though, take care of Kedron. He will want you with him when he wakes." She leaned in and brushed a kiss against Imella's soft lips. "Until later, sweetheart."

Elaina padded from the room, fully aware of Imella's eyes on her bottom. She gave the girl a wink as she pulled the door shut and headed for the stairs.

***ARAN***

Aran had not felt this relaxed for weeks. He lay back on the warm stones beside the bath, his hands folded behind his head. For once, everything was right with the world. He still held some concern for Smythe and Kedron, but his vala told him their condition was improving, just very slowly.

Induin and Liaren were on either side of him, their slender, pale bodies stretched out in imitation of his own. They had fallen asleep quickly after the torrid lovemaking in -- and out of -- the bath. He had taken them twice more each after the first, each time coming inside them at their behest. He had assured them that the first time was enough, but they had insisted anyway.

He turned his head to either side and smiled as he ran his eyes over their identical bodies, smooth and supple. A few beads of water still glistened on their pale skin. His cock stiffened a little at the thought of more sex, but he decided to let them sleep, for now. In fact, a little nap would not go astray at this time.

With a contented sigh, he closed his eyes and let himself drift.

"Oh, no you don't!" Liaren said from his left before slapping him on the chest.

Aran cracked an eye to look at her. "Don't what? He asked. "Take a nap?"

A slim leg snaked its way across his hips from the right, the smooth skin caressing his cock and bringing it back to full mast. Induin settled herself down on him a moment later, trapping his hard length between their bodies. Her pussy was warm and wet on the underside of his shaft.

"That's right!" The silvery-haired beauty declared as she sat proudly astride him. Her pert breasts caught his eyes, the pink nipples hardened into little points. "We don't know how long we have you all to ourselves for, you know." She slid herself forward a little, dragging the lips of her pussy along his cock and gasping at the pleasant sensation.

Another leg came from his left and his vision of Induin was obscured as Liaren's bald snatch lowered down over his face. He eagerly ran his tongue through her pink folds, loving the way she tasted.

"Very well," he mumbled into Liaren's pussy, making the Elf giggle. There was a shift in the weight across his hips, and then his cock was bathed in a delicious, wet heat as Induin sank down, taking him inside her once again.

The three lovers resumed their fucking, the heat of the fires quickly bringing fresh sweat from their pores. Aran devoured Liaren's sweet-tasting Elvish pussy while Induin bounced lazily on his pole. The twins leaned forward often to engage in steamy kisses and to say dirty things to one another, much to Aran's delight.

Suddenly, Induin stopped grinding her hips and Liaren stopped pushing her sopping cunt down onto his face. Before Aran could discover what was happening, the twins abandoned him, scrambling to their feet.

"Elaina!" Liaren cried happily as she ran around the bath to throw herself at the voluptuous Paladin standing naked in the archway.

Aran sat up in surprise. He'd been so distracted with the twins he hadn't felt her wake. Induin was only a half-second behind her sister, crashing into the other two women as they hugged.

Elaina was laughing, but she held the two Elves against herself fiercely, an arm around each one. "Yes, it's me. In the flesh."

"How did you get better so fast?" Induin asked before planting a solid kiss on Elaina's mouth. It went on for some time, both women investing themselves fully. Aran could only witness appreciatively.

"I'm not sure," Elaina replied when she had her lips back. "I felt you three down here, and something flowed through to me. All of a sudden, I was healed." Her eyes fell on Aran, and he smiled. Gods, she was beautiful. They all were.

"We did as you asked," Liaren told Elaina proudly as Aran got to his feet. "We didn't wear him out." She peppered kisses along Elaina's neck, making the sexy Paladin chuckle hotly.

Elaina's hands drifted down to cup one cheek each of the Elves' tight bottoms. She squeezed them fondly while Induin attended to the other side of Elaina's neck. Elaina moaned approvingly, even as her emerald eyes focused on Aran, the smoky light behind them telling him exactly what she was thinking.

His vala was pulling him toward her, but he stood and watched for a time, enjoying the way the three women kissed and touched each other.

Induin and Liaren kissed their way from Elaina's neck and down to her magnificent breasts, and as one the twins each took a nipple between their lips. Elaina gasped happily as they suckled her, and her hands came up to caress the girls' heads lovingly. Her eyes remained on Aran all the while, until he thought he might catch fire from the heat in her stare.

Eventually, the twins released Elaina. "Go to him, sister," Liaren said, giving Elaina one last kiss.

"We will find you later and finish what we started," Induin added with a kiss of her own.

"Sounds good to me," Elaina told them both with a smile. "Why don't you two go and see what's happening elsewhere in the Chapel? I think you'll find plenty of fun without looking too hard."

The twins shared an eager glance, but then they turned to Aran. Blue eyes and green regarded him almost seriously as they approached. Aran admired their graceful walk, the gentle sway of their hips as they seemed to almost glide across the stone floor.

Liaren threw her arms around him first. "Thank you," she whispered in his ear. "I can feel it already. I love you." She pulled back, a tear streaking down one cheek. Aran wiped it away with his thumb.

"I love you, too," he told her.

Then Induin took Liaren's place. "You have made us very happy, Aran Sunblade," she said softly. There were no tears from Induin, but her eyes were misty. Aran kissed her forehead tenderly.

"Likewise, mi eldar'vanima." My beautiful Elves.

They left the room in their naked state, holding hands as they slid past Elaina and out through the archway.

"Well," Elaina purred. "I suppose that leaves us all alone, now, doesn't it?" She moved toward him, her hips swaying hypnotically, her breasts even more mesmerising as they shifted in time with her steps.

"It does," Aran agreed, meeting her halfway and taking her in his arms. Her body melted into him, her breasts pillowing against his chest as their lips met in a deep, soulful kiss. Their vala melded together, intertwined intricately until they were as one.

"I nearly lost you," he said softly when the kiss ended. The room seemed to go dead quiet as he stared into her eyes. There was a whole universe in there, if you looked. Deeper than the ocean and more infinite than eternity.

She touched his face. "But you didn't. You came and got me."

"I always will."

Their mouths met again, harder this time, more fierce. Had they been wearing clothes they would have been torn to shreds in seconds. Hands were everywhere, grasping, squeezing, gripping. Elaina dropped back to the floor before one of the fireplaces, pulling him down on top of her.

She opened her thighs wide to receive him as he settled his weight on her luscious form. Like a key to a lock, they fit together effortlessly, his cock sinking into her molten depths, finding its way home once again.

They sighed together as they were reunited, and their eyes locked together as Aran began to move, fucking her slowly but determinedly, with all the love and passion he could muster. Elaina hooked her heels behind his buttocks and pulled at him insistently with each forward stroke, trying to bring him deeper into her clenching pussy.

"Yes! Yes!" Elaina breathed, her words hitching each time his hips drove home. She was clutching his face, her breath heating his lips. "Let's come together."
