Chapter 7

CHAPTER 7

I watch Thokk arrange his pile of furs on the floor, trying not to stare at the way his muscles flex as he moves.

If I thought I was imagining any sexual tension between us before, well ... I wasn't. That much is clear.

But still...

But still nothing. I have never felt anything like this in my life. Sure, I remember thinking my date with Jeff Stomberg on Valentine's Day senior year felt "so perfect," but that is just laughable now. This is like some crazy soul connection. Wasn't there some movie where a woman falls in love with a fish? I thought it was so ridiculous.

I had no idea.

And who am I kidding?

I'm practically gawking at his muscles.

And from the way he keeps glancing back at me, I think he's well aware.

The air between us feels thick, charged with unspoken tension. I can practically see Thokk's internal struggle playing out - his sense of duty warring with what I hope is desire. Because let me tell you, I am feeling all kinds of desire right now.

But I should be helping I realize. As I get off the bed to lend a hand I feel a kink in my neck.

"Oh," I cry softly.

"Are you alright?" he asks immediately, voice full of alarm and concern, but also that same unmistakable softness.

"Yeah, must have been from the sudden movement. I guess it's still sore from that bracelet collar thing you put on me," I say, rubbing at my neck.

Guilt flashes across his face. "I should have found another way," he rumbles, crossing the room. "I thought a few red marks was the worst of it. Please, may I?" he says as he sits beside me again.

My heart races as I nod. He brings one huge hand to my neck, touching me gently as he rubs at it softly.

"This needs attention," he murmurs, breath warm against my ear. "I have a special salve that might help if you'd like me to apply it. Sometimes I use it after a hard day hauling stone or timber."

I nod again, my pulse quickening as I watch Thokk retrieve it and return to sit beside me again.

"Just relax," he says as he begins to rub it into my flesh.

Oh my god, I think I am going to melt.

This time his touch goes straight to my instantly hardened nipples as well as to my wide-awake lady parts.

"Is this helping?" he asks, gently kneading the sore muscles of my neck a little more deeply.

Oh my goodness but are they awake.

"Mmm, that's nice," I murmur, leaning into his touch. I can't fight it. "Yes, ohh," a gentle moan escapes my lips. "A little lower maybe?"

His hands move to my shoulders, working out knots I didn't even know I had. I bite back a louder moan. God, those hands. I bet they could ...

No, Zoe. Bad thoughts. Very bad thoughts. Keep it above the belt.

"I should have realized it was hurting you," Thokk murmurs, his voice closer to my ear than I expected. "But I will make it up to you. I promise."

I laugh softly. "That is very sweet of you Thokk, but it's just a sore neck. I'll live."

"Of course you will survive," he sounds a little taken aback.

"That was a joke," I quickly add. "If I can handle being transported to a magical hidden village and paraded around as a prisoner, I can handle a little neck pain."

His hands still for a moment. "I was just trying to keep you safe."

I turn to face him, suddenly very aware of how close we are. "I know you were Thokk. And I appreciate it, believe it or not."

I am definitely losing the battle with my dirty thoughts.

"How does it feel now?" Thokk asks, his voice tender.

"Better. But maybe you could do a little more on my shoulders and back too if that's alright? Playing prisoner is harder than it looks you know."

Truth is, I don't want him to stop.

He chuckles softly, a sound that sends a fresh wave of tingles straight to my core. "Of course. Like this?" he asks as he begins to knead at my shoulders now.

"Yes, just like that," I say, trying to keep my voice even, as his strong hands work on the stress in my shoulders and upper back. I can't help but arch into his touch.

"Oh," I exclaim as he finds another knot. Somehow I manage not to moan.

I hear Thokk's sharp intake of breath.

"I'm sorry," he says quickly. "Too much?"

I shake my head. "No, no. It feels amazing, actually. You've got magic hands, big guy."

He chuckles, a low rumble that I swear I can feel in my bones. "No magic Zoe. Just strength."

I turn my head to look at him and find his face much closer than I expected. "It's a figure of speech," I murmur as our eyes meet, less than a foot apart.

"Right," he murmurs back, just above a whisper.

"Thokk," I whisper myself, not even sure what I want to say.

He doesn't reply. Instead, he leans in, as we both turn to face each other. His lips meet mine, and it's like a dam breaking. All the tension, all the attraction we've been dancing around explodes in a passionate kiss.

I melt into him, wrapping my arms around his neck as he pulls me closer and I feel his tongue against mine. His tusks graze my cheek, sending a shiver down my spine. It should feel strange, kissing a beast of fantasy like this, but instead it feels ... right.

Fantasy has become my reality it would seem.

When we finally break apart, we're both breathing heavily. Thokk's amber eyes are dark with desire, and I'm sure mine look much the same.

"Zoe," he growls, his voice low and husky. "We shouldn't ..."

"Well, that's obvious." I run my hands over his broad chest like I have been imagining doing since we met. "But I don't know about you, I just can't fight it anymore."

"You feel what I am feeling then" He brings a hand up to gently stroke my hair.

"If you mean the whole body urge to jump your bones combined with some kind of soul-level certainty that this is just ‘right,' then yeah, I feel it alright."

He opens his mouth, then closes it again. I can see the struggle playing out on his face – some sort of duty versus desire, or so I imagine.

"I too have been fighting this ...urge. I have to have you. It is against my kind's ways, but I know it to be right. We are right." I feel his hot breath on my neck.

"Yes, that is what I feel too Thokk. A knowing. Logically none of it ...none of any of this makes sense, I say as I gesture to indicate the two of us. But if this feeling is wrong, then I don't know what's right anymore."

He looks into my eyes again, and this time I bring a hand to his face.

"Kiss me again," I say softly.

"As a test," he whispers.

"Yes, just to be sure we aren't imagining things."

His answer comes not in words, but in action. He gently presses his lips to mine. This time we start slower with a few tentative nibbles, but it quickly escalates as Thokk brings one hand to my lower back, even as the other slips down to my breast. Immediately I feel my pussy flood as he begins to squeeze and caress at my breast through my blouse. At the same time, he pulls me closer, his lips crashing against mine, hungry and demanding. The kiss and touch are passionate and tender all at once, a release of pent-up emotions that leaves me breathless.

I respond with equal fervor, wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling him in.

My resistance is completely collapsing now. Hungrily I allow him to lift me fully into his lap as I wrap my legs to either side of his massive frame. Immediately he puts his hands under my blouse and begins to lift it off. I happily shimmy my way out of it even as he buries his face into my still bra-clad chest.

I press my hips against him, unable to resist the urge to feel his hardness any longer. I'm satisfied by the feel of his massive member straining against the taut fabric of his trousers. I push against his chest and he follows my lead, laying back onto his bed, pausing only to lift me and guide us both into the center of the mattress.

He pauses for a moment to lift his own shirt off, finally exposing the rippling muscles of his chest and stomach that I had suspected must lie beneath.

"Your body is perfect Thokk." I whisper as I allow my body to fold down and press skin to skin against him. I kiss at the hard flesh of his chest and belly even as I begin to pulse my hips against his growing hardness.

"Zoe, I could never have imagined you, a human could feel so good." I feel his breath hot, even as he presses his hardness against me in return.

Before I know it, we work together to remove my bra. In an instant he brings the swell of my breasts to his mouth and licks at my taut nipples. I feel an explosion of pleasure again as he sucks and nibbles on them each in turn.

"Thokk, but what about..."

"Shh Zoe, let us have tonight. I cannot resist you any longer. I will not, if you will have me."

Don't have to tell me twice.

I pull his head against me as he kisses and licks, taking each breast in turn into his mouth. I feel an extra thrill zing through my flesh as he teases my nipples with his tusks.

My pussy is growing wetter by the minute. I'm sure I have soaked my panties by now and push against his chest to pry my boobs out of range of his tongue once again.

He gives each breast a final kiss before I slide my hips down to grind my hips against his sex once again. I am rewarded by both his groans as well as the growing ache in my pussy.

I flash back to that first moment we came face to face and I stifle a laugh, even as I press even harder against him.

What a crazy day.

That, of course doesn't even begin to cover it.

For a moment he seems to want to fight me to take charge, but I just undulate my pussy against him with more fervor. He gets the message and lays back in surrender.

"Let me have my fun. Besides, you must be exhausted after playing master all day." He looks up at me, a look of what? Surprise? Maybe pleasure, on his face? I press hard against him once more and then hop off to his side, instantly grasping the thickness of his shaft as it presses against his pants.

"I don't want to hurt you Zoe..."

I seize it again, taking the measure of his incredible girth by feel.

"You won't, but yeah, we'll be going slow alright."

Just the thought of taking him inside me releases a whole new wave of heat and wetness from my core.

With his belt already removed, I go to work popping the few buttons of his pants, when Thokk suddenly pulls me up to his face, planting a kiss on my forehead.

"Zoe, I want you to know that this is not a normal thing for me ... you ... you are special. Beyond special ... You are ..."

"You mean you don't bed lost human woman on the regular? That is a relief." I kiss him back on the lips. "And don't worry Thokk, I can tell this is as new for you as it is for me."

"There was an old troll.... earlier tonight...he was talking of fate...Do you believe in fate Zoe?"

"Um ..." I look around the room at the incredible surroundings and raise my palms into the air. "Hello? I mean if this isn't some kinda magical freaking fate shit, I don't know what else it could be ..."

"Do you believe in mates?"

"Like soul mates... I think I do now." I pause to nibble on his lower lip a little.

"Fated mates. I believe that is what this is Zoe, we are meant for each other ..."

"I think you are right Thokky," I breathe.

I can tell he wants to protest the little spur or the moment pet name that occurred to me, but I bring a finger to his lips.

"Shhh ..." With that I start to kiss back down his chest ... and then his belly ...

"I bet no lady orc could do this," I tease.

"To mate with an orc lady is to put ones very life in danger ... it is a thing of warriors ... a rite of passage. I would never expose my belly so to the tusks of a lady orc ..."

"Wow. Well, let's make this a different sort of rite of passage then." I pull his pants down enough so that his hard green shaft pops free.

I gasp at the size of it, even as I kiss it just beneath the head.

He instant let's out a groan of pleasure.

I add a few licks to my kisses before I spit on his shaft and take him in my hand.

In both hands.

He begins to rock his hips as I start to rhythmically stoke his hot hard length. For a moment I pause to gently knead his huge balls, eliciting yet another moan.

"Zoe, I did not know human females knew of such arts ..."

"Shh... not human females ... just me, Zoe ... Zoe Bennet, thank you very much. Now stop talking. Please." I kiss and suck on the tip of his cock again for emphasis.

"Yes, Zoe Bennet." Another long moan escapes his lips as he lets his arms fall to his sides.

I continue kissing and stroking his hardness, finally daring to try to take him full in my mouth. I am just able to take a little, which sends him into another round of moans.

But then, just as quickly he pulls me up toward his chest and then flips me onto my back on the soft bed as he looms over me, making quick work of pulling off my pants. Before I know what has happened, he has laid me back and is pressing my legs open as seems to be sniffing deeply at my now exposed sex.

"I have a confession," he says.

"What did we say about talking?"

But he pays me no mind as he continues. "I have been transfixed by your scent from the moment you arrived. I tried to fight it, to ignore it, but I cannot. I have wanted to devour you, to taste you, to eat you from the moment I saw you..."

"Eat me...?"

"Not eat you eat you...you know what I mean."

"Oh, I think I do ," I say as I feel my lady parts release a fresh wave of tingling pleasure at the thought.

And with that he begins to kiss at my thighs. Immediately my pussy is dripping even as I do my best to angle my sex toward his hungry tongue.

He works his way closer until finally pleasure overcomes me as I feel him first kiss at my lips, and then at my clit. I can't help it. I pulse my hips up against his waiting tongue as he begins to run his tongue from my ass right up to my clit before gently sucking on me.

Oh my god.

I can feel the familiar pressure building as he hungrily licks and sucks at my wetness. I have never experienced anything like this. As the pressure builds, he suddenly sticks two massive fingers inside me. That's more than enough to put me over the edge. I barely register what he is doing before I fresh moan of pleasure escapes my lips as the wave of my climax overcomes me. But my groans of pleasure only seem to egg him on as he kisses at my thighs and then my clit again in turn. My hands dig into the bed sheets as I struggle for some kind of control. But he is relentless with his tongue and fingers until I feel I can't take anymore. Finally, he withdraws his hand and looks me in the eyes again, kissing at my belly. I pull him close, in for another kiss.

"You have hidden talents as well."

He kisses my forehead in reply. But he isn't done. Now he is looming over me, his massive green shaft hard thick and ready.

I feel my sex tingle, knowing what is to come.

He lowers himself just enough to allow its length to lay against me. His cock is hot and unleashes a fresh torrent of pleasure through my core. No sooner do I feel him pressing against me, than he begins to rock back and forth. The base and his balls are right against my opening and I instantly bring my legs around him as best I can, opening my pussy for him even as he teases even more. I moan with pleasure as I feel his organ sliding along the outside of my lips and clit. But he has me so excited.

"Be gentle."

"Of course, Zoe Bennet," he replies as he brings one hand to my breast. I reach down and seize his cock as best as I can and guide it toward my opening, immediately feeling a shock of pleasure radiate out from my core as my lips stretch to accommodate him.

Slowly he begins to pump into me, and with each thrust I feel him going deeper and deeper inside.

"Oh my God, Thock, yes," I say as I feel my sex stretching out for him.

Every time, I think this must be the deepest I have ever been filled, but then he drives in deeper, until I begin to shake with pleasure.

"Uhh", a guttural moan escapes my lips in spite of my attempts to maintain some semblance of composure. I let that go though, just as I begin to let my grunts come as they may as well. And soon he is panting too, as he begins to slam into me harder. I hold onto his arms tightly, trying to pull him into me.

"Yes baby" I say as I feel him speeding up even more. His huge balls slam against my ass and I sense a tingling hot pressure building again.

"Thokk, I am going to come again."

"As am I," he moans as he drives in again all the way to the hilt.

As I let out another grunt of pleasure he bellows and I feel his hot seed shooting deep inside me, filling my pussy.

"Ohh. My. God." I practically scream as another wave of orgasm sends stars across my vision.

With his release his stokes first slow and then stop altogether as he finally collapses at my side. He quickly takes my hand in his as we lay on our backs beside one another.

As I hear his hoarse panting breathe, I am feeling every bit of this magical freaking world I am in.

"Holy fucking shit that was incredible."

For a moment he just breathes...but he finally answers

"You, Zoe Bennet, are incredible."

And with that, I feel myself drifting off to sleep, feeling safer and more at home in this magical hidden world, and in Thokk's bed, than I could have ever thought possible.

So much so that I hardly even give a thought to what new adventures tomorrow will no doubt bring ...
