Kaia’s skin tingled with each touch of Alexandros’ lips, making Kaia shiver uncontrollably, especially as she felt the familiar sensation of his breath against her ear. ’Cum for me, Kaia. Cum harder than you did before.’

Stormy blue eyes flickered open as a lust-filled smirk appeared on Kaia’s face once more. Kaia met his gaze as a hand moved to cup the side of his face, before she let it fall further still. Placing both palms on his chest, Kaia firmly pushed Alexandros back down onto the furs, gasping at the change in angle that allowed for his length to brush against a part of her she didn’t know existed.

Kaia dragged her hands back up to his shoulders, her face hovering close to his as she experimented with the new angle. She could not move her hips as fast as before, but she could move more deeply. Kaia had thought the slightly revised position might have bought her some time before her release, but her body still twitched with each stroke against her swollen bundle of nerves.

Her breaths shallow and broken between light whimpers and moans, Kaia nipped at Alexandros’ bottom lip as she focused on her building tidal wave. For a moment, her hands sought out his wrists and held them against the furs, before she could not hold herself back any longer. As the urgency for her release began to crash around her, Kaia moved to sit straight back up, never once allowing the rhythm to falter. Unable to reach Alexandros with her hands now, Kaia reached back, looking for anything that could help her find purchase. When her hands found Alexandros’ thighs, she leaned against him and leaned her head back as she picked up the pace.

The pitch in her voice began to spike until all of a sudden, her climax consumed her like the most vicious tidal wave. Wave after wave of raw, toe-curling pleasure coursed through Kaia, leaving her a shuddering mess. Her breaths still light and catching in her chest, Kaia let her body relax a little as the last ebs of her orgasm ran through her. Kaia gave Alexandros a sly grin, very aware that he had not yet finished. Although she was sated, Kaia began to rock her hips again, wanting to make sure Alexandros got his finish too.

It didn’t come as a surprise that Alexandros may want to reach his finish from a position of his choosing, but the motion still drew a light gasp from her all the same. Kaia let herself get comfortable on the furs, enjoying the closeness the position allowed. Instinctively, Kaia wrapped her legs around his hips once more, bridging her pelvis up to allow him better access, all while enjoying the kiss they shared.

Kaia could tell he was getting close by the rate of his thrusts. Matching him, Kaia moved her hips to make the experience as enjoyable for him as possible. When he broke the kiss, she figured he must be close.

’I’m nearly finished my dear, where would you have me spill my seed?’

Kaia glanced around, but there was nothing nearby that could easily catch his load. Not wanting to risk taking too long to decide, Kaia tilted her head to the side so that she could murmur in his ear this time, “anywhere but in there.” She figured he’d spill his seed on her stomach like her previous lover had that one time. It had been messy, but at least her womb hadn’t quickened with his child.

’Anywhere? Even your lovely little mouth?’

Kaia raised a brow at him playfully. She was impressed that he was able to tease her even when so close to reaching his own finish. Kaia supposed she had been quite ambiguous with her initial answer.

“Here will do just fine,” Kaia breathed, glancing down towards her stomach then back up at him again. At least it would be easier to clean off of herself than the furs.

Kaia moved her hips with him until he pulled out of her. Letting her legs drop back down onto the makeshift bed, Kaia reached down to take hold of his length as well, noticing how slick his manhood felt with her fluids. She let him direct the speed and intensity of the pumps, but wanted to still be involved up until the moment of his release.

Kaia followed his lead, somewhat pleased to be earning such reactions from him as she helped him near his end. It didn’t take long before Alexandros went crashing over the edge, his seed spilling onto her stomach. Kaia was incredibly aware of the warm, sticky fluid as it landed on her. She dared not move in case she spilled it onto the furs.

’Well, Kaia, was that everything I promised you?’

As much as she wanted to tease, she knew she couldn’t deny him, and she had no doubt that he knew it too. “Hmm, I suppose it was,” Kaia murmured with a cheeky grin as he settled down beside her. As his lips began trailing kisses along her skin, Kaia gave a content sigh and closed her eyes, her fingers gently brushing against the skin of his back. When he suddenly gave her collarbone a bite though, Kaia gave a small gasp of surprise. It wasn’t unpleasant, which she had not expected. Kaia could tell he had not drawn blood, but assumed that it must have been enough to leave a mark.

’I’ve decided that I will take your bite in exchange, my dear Kaia. I think it only fair after everything that has happened this night.’

Kaia glanced around for the closest piece of clothing and saw her chest wrap. Leaning to the side to grab it, Kaia used the end to mop up Alexandros’ seed from her stomach. She would wash it in the morning when she was back at camp and no one would be the wiser.

Once she’d cleaned herself up, Kaia rolled onto her side to face Alexandros. Leaning forwards, Kaia nipped and sucked at the skin of his collarbone, careful not to be too rough or to break the skin. When she was satisfied with her work, Kaia met his gaze again, before snuggling in against him, her face pressed against his chest.

As she closed her eyes, Kaia let herself relax, listening to the steady beating of Alexandros’ heart. With his arms wrapped around her, Kaia found herself quite comfortable in their embrace. How she wished she could just drift off to sleep without a care in the world, but alas, she knew she would need to stay awake until Alexandros fell asleep, so that she could sneak back to camp before her father and uncles returned. It really was a shame, for Kaia could easily see herself growing used to falling asleep in the warmth of his arms.

’Good night, my dear Kaia, rest well.’

“Good night,” Kaia murmured in response, a secret smile spreading across her lips. She was probably still riding high on the hormones that were released during sex, but none the less, Kaia felt happy. All too quickly though, her eyelids began to grow heavier, and it was becoming much harder to stay awake, especially with her eyes closed. Against her best attempts, Kaia soon fell into a restful sleep.

~~

At some point in the night, someone had managed to pull the furs over the two of them, for when Kaia woke up, she could never recall being so warm when waking. As gloriously comfortable as it was, it just made having to leave so much harder. As it was, Kaia had taken quite the risk by falling asleep. She had no idea how much time had passed and hoped to each and every God that the men hadn’t returned yet.

Reluctantly, Kaia began to gently pry herself away from Alexandros, being ever so careful not to wake him. Truly, she wished she could stay with him until morning, but she hated to think what would happen should she not return home in time. She doubted that even Agolois wouldn’t be able to protect her from Hektos’ wrath.

Standing up, Kaia ignored the uncomfortable pounding in her head as she quietly got herself dressed. She had to move a lot slower than she would have liked, but at least it gave her senses time to adjust. The festival was still very much alive from what she could hear, but there was a muted stillness that came with being awake in the early hours of the morning.

After slipping her dagger back under her chiton, Kaia picked up her sword and considered it. If she took it home, she would be asked about it. She could of course say she ran into someone while out hunting and managed to take it from them, but in that instance, the sword would be promptly taken from her. If she could give them something else more worthwhile, then perhaps she’d be allowed to keep it, so long as she could get Agolois on board. Hektos didn’t want either her or Aea to have a sword.

It didn’t feel right stealing from Alexandros, considering the night they’d shared. Kaia’s first lover, she never even learnt his name. Once they’d finished, she pulled her dagger on him and robbed him. This time, nothing of the sort had happened. Kaia wanted to leave a good memory to be just that, but it also went against everything she knew to leave empty handed. She already knew that if it was found out that she was right there, in his tent and she didn’t take something, she’d be punished for her incompetence.

Kaia’s gaze paused on Alexandros’ chest of belongings, but more importantly, the few gold coins resting on top. No one needed to know what he did or didn’t own if Kaia could take home a few drachma. No doubt she’d be allowed to keep her sword as a reward for such a profitable haul. Plus, given their conversations at the festival, Kaia was led to believe that Alexandros could afford to live comfortably enough. Surely it would not hurt him too severely to lose a few coins when he was wealthy enough to buy six or so goats.

Resolved with her decision, Kaia silently padded over to the chest and took the handful of coins, shoving them down her front with her dagger while she choked back the tendril of guilt that threatened to ensnare her.

Deciding the risk was worth it, Kaia leant down and gently kissed Alexandros’ forehead, before standing back up to look at him for likely the last time. Cementing his kind and handsome features in her memory, Kaia slipped out of the tent and into the night.
