Dragonborn Rising Ch. 08

She shuddered once she'd settled on my crotch, smiling away as she admitted, "I think I nearly came just then."

"That good?"

"It's certainly hitting the right spots. Now, just let me control it this time, Ragnar. You just lie back and provide the cock."

Despite the confident tone, she didn't last long, her first orgasm arriving very quickly. She rode her way through it, barely, starting to ride a little harder and faster as she became ever more accustomed to what was inside her. Wondering if she was going to have another one soon, she could barely put three words together, leaning forward with both hands on my chest as she properly started to ride me. That sent sensations up and down my cock, and my body, and I knew I was going to cum again quite soon myself.

Climaxing a second time, that's when she had to cry enough, at least for the moment, collapsing on my chest, feeling hers rise and fall as she murmured how good she felt. I really needed to cum, so she lifted herself up, and suggested I just cum on her, so I left a load on her arse and lower back, suggesting we'd just clean it off later.

We both had a little nap, Karliah not moving off me at all. Waking up a little later, I grabbed a little water and cloth to clean her back, and we made love again, our appetites for each other still not quite sated for the moment. Apart from Karliah being on her back and me between her legs, there was only endless amounts of kissing and caressing, with plenty of romantic words shared between us too. I wasn't quite falling for her, but I knew we would be very close going forward. I was left thinking she just wanted a man who she could trust and know that would treat her right.

Cuddling under the covers later, Karliah spooned against me, we lay in silence and conversed quietly about nothing particularly important, until she said, "Thank you for tonight, Ragnar."

"You don't have to thank me."

"I know, but the entire evening, since I walked in the door, your focus has been on making me... happy. I've had a near constant grin since you opened the door. I can't remember the last time I felt remotely happy." She paused before adding, "Promise me one thing, Ragnar."

"Of course."

"Never say you love me, or you're in love with me. Even if you do. And I promise to do the same."

I could understand why she said that, so I agreed. I won't say wholeheartedly, because if we did fall in love, we'd be denying ourselves possible happiness. I had no idea what was going to happen with Haelga. Or Ingun. Or any other woman I met. But I understand why she said it, and to be honest, it was probably the best course of action. Work alongside each other. Enjoy the other's company. Enjoy some really hot sex. But don't let feelings cloud our judgement.

I did have to say, "You say that like you expect to fall in love with me, Karliah."

She turned around to face me. "Because I know I will. But I can't repeat history, Ragnar. My heart won't be able to take it."

I was about to say 'I won't end up like Gallus', but who was I to make that sort of promise? I could die tomorrow if a mission went wrong. So I promised her that, if I did fall for her completely, I'd keep it to myself.

It would probably end up being a hard promise to keep.
