WE SURVEY THE DAMAGES AND take the rest of Vorgak’s soldiers as prisoners.
There will be many changes now that Vorgak is dead. Most importantly, Kaethe is safe. My beautiful mate. She’s so brave and strong. Once this is done I will spend hours enjoying the fact that we both survived today.
My soldiers who pass me in the hall nod respectively. I had to threaten them all not to bow in my presence. I am king now, but the formalities of the title don’t appeal to me. All this new title has done is given me the power to ensure peace for my village and help the other humans spread across Brokenbone Mountain. It means I now have the power to keep my mate safe, that’s the most important thing.
There’s so much to do, so many decisions to make but I can’t bring myself to do any of them right now. I speak with my soldiers and with some of Vorgak’s healers and alchemists that have crept out from the tunnels. Messenger ravens have been sent out to the other clans to inform them of the shift in power. More will need to be sent in the coming days to tell the other kingdoms.
It’s late, my soldiers and I are exhausted. I need my Kae.
Climbing the old stone steps I make my way up to where I left Kaethe earlier. A long, long time ago it was my room as a youngling. It has been left untouched. That’s another thing we’ll have to figure out: where we are going to live.
We’ll solve it all in the morning.
Right now, as I push through the door and find her sitting on the bed in a towel with wet hair, all I care about is us. Her smile is soft as I sit on the bed beside her. My hands skim over the soft skin of her arms, along the delicate slope of her nose, and over each round cheek. A growl is pulled from chest as I take in the bruise along her forehead, the split to her lip.
I don’t even realize how much I’m shaking until Kaethe’s hand cups my own.
“Don’t think about how bad things could’ve gone. We’re both alive and safe.” She leans in and touches her soft, plump lips to mine. “What happens now?”
Letting out a shuddering breath, I trace her lips with my thumb.
“That depends. I have the power now to order all human captives to be set free. With Vorgak’s arsenal of weapons we can easily put down any uprisings. There’s a hundred things that need to be done.”
Kaethe nods. “What do you want to do?”
“The same thing I always do,” I answer, untucking her towel from around her and letting it pool at her waist. Her beautiful breasts are illuminated by the soft light in the room. I thumb her nipple and she moans into my touch. “I want to get you naked and stuff you full of my cock.”
My mate giggles and smacks at my chest but she doesn’t pull away.
I grow serious as I look into her dark eyes. “You know what me becoming king means? As my mate, you’re queen now.”
“Are you okay with that? With being king?” Her hands skim up my own arm to tangle in my hair.
“I never wanted power, never wanted to rule. I’ve only ever wanted to keep people safe.”
“Then it sounds like you’re the perfect orc to be king.”
“Are you okay with it?” I ask, curling a piece of her pink hair around my finger.
“As long as we’re together, the rest is just details.” Kaethe leans in and presses her lips against mine again. I groan brokenly into the kiss and suddenly I’m flattening her to the bed. Her soft body cradles mine as I settle between her legs. Her arms go around my neck as she sucks my tongue into her mouth.
We work together to shed my clothes and I love the way her eyes glaze over as she takes in my chest. I flex my muscles for her and she sighs, pressing her hands to my back and pulling me down on top of her. The old bed we are on rattles and creaks. It was made for me when I was child, so my feet hang over the edge and there’s barely enough room for Kaethe to lay flat in it.
“If we are planning on living here we’re gonna need a bigger bed,” Kaethe says as I kiss my way down her neck. I nip at her pulse, then suck along her collar bone. My hands knead her breasts until she’s squirming against me.
“I’ll build you the biggest bed ever made.”
I kiss my way down her body, leaving nips and kisses all over her soft skin, before hooking her legs over my shoulder. Her little pussy is drenched, so pink and pretty. I press my nose against her and salivate over her sweet scent.
“Bazur,” she moans as I enjoy my feast.
My tongue works her clit as my fingers slip into her entrance. She’s so slick and hot, it’s not long before her juices are running down to her back entrance. Pulling my fingers from her cunt and making sure they’re slick from her arousal, I gently prod that untouched hole. I get to the first knuckle before she lets out a shriek.
“What are you doing?” she asks, her head thrashing against the pillow. My finger presses farther into her ass while I slip my tongue inside her pussy. I fuck both of her holes with my tongue and finger until her hips start grinding against my face.
I push my finger all the way inside of her ass and she screams, rewarding me with a rush of her come on my tongue. I drink it all down and pull my finger out. Her eyes are unfocused and her chest rises and falls as she watches me loom over her.
“One day soon, my cock will go in that hole too.” I bite the fleshy swell of her breast, her hips tilt up to try and guide my cock into her. Reaching down, I position myself at her entrance, her thighs being hoisted up by my hands.
“We’ll need lots of my special cream for that,” she says, breaking off on a moan as I fill her in one thrust.
“So tight, akorzag.” Her cunt squeezes me and I move slowly within her for a moment. It’s not long before she starts whining, pressing her feet into my ass and urging me to take her harder. I’m not one to deny my queen.
The headboard of the old bed rattles as it slams into the stone wall. Her breasts bounce and her legs cinch tighter around my waist. Without warning, my mate uses all of her strength to try and flip me onto my back. I chuckle as I help her accomplish the task.
Kaethe straddles my thighs and I position a pillow beneath my head so I can take in all of her. She is so gorgeous. Her fair skin is covered in a fine sheen of sweat, her cheeks and knees are both pink. She places her small hands on my chest and I watch as she begins to move on my cock.
Her movements are slow and disjointed but as she gets more comfortable being on top, she starts slamming down on me in more precise movements. I watch her delicious body bounce and jiggle with each downward thrust of her hips. Over and over again, until my own breathing grows ragged. My hands slide up her stomach until I am able to cup her breasts, pinching her pink nipples.
Kaethe’s hands cover my own and she leans down to kiss me, her hips beginning to grind in circles while she’s stuffed with my cock.
“Do you want to come on my breasts this time?” she asks innocently. My body jerks and my hands fly to her hips.
Mother of the Mountain, spare me.
“Akorzag,” I groan and she kisses me again.
“Because you can.” Her teeth sink into her bottom lip as her legs on either side of me squeeze tighter. She hoists her hips higher until I am barely inside of her and then slams them back down. Over and over again she does it until I’m panting.
My finger finds her little clit and I rub tight circles on it causing her back to arch.
“I’m not coming anywhere but in this tight pussy,” I growl. Kaethe leans off of my chest and places her hands behind her on my thighs. She raises her body again, showing me all of her and I have to close my eyes because it’s almost too decadent to bear.
“I knew you’d say that.” Her eyes are hazy with lust but her smile is mischievous. My restraint snaps with what she says next. “Come inside me, mate. I need my king’s come.”
I let out a roar and suddenly I’m in control again. I rip her off of my cock and throw her face down on the bed. My tongue runs from her clit to her asshole and then I’m slamming myself inside her tight pussy again. My hips smack against her ass as she frantically claws at the sheets.
“My mate’s pussy is gripping me so good. Are you going to come, Kaethe?” I say into her ear, sinking my teeth into her shoulder. Her hips move back against me so she can fuck herself on my length.
“Please, make me come.”
“Then tell me what I want to hear.” I lick my thumb and hover it just over her clit. One press of it and she’s done for. Kaethe’s eyes are filled with so much lust as she glances over her shoulder and holds my gaze.
“I love you,” she sighs and I thumb her clit. Her climax claims her as her pussy clamps down on my cock. I fuck her hard, once, twice, three more times before I’m flooding her little cunt with my seed. She gets all of it and one day, one day very soon it’ll make our first child.
That thought stays with me as I pull out of her and hold her tight against me. On this narrow bed, over half her body lays on my chest and I don’t mind it. In fact, I’m rethinking the whole, bigger bed idea. I like being this close to her, our bond so strong between us and tying our souls together.
“Think we can make this place into a home?” Kaethe asks softly into my chest.
“My home is wherever you are.” I kiss her brow and she snuggles even deeper into me. I hold her hand on top of my chest. It’s so tiny and delicate yet it holds my entire heart in its palm.
“Forever,” she says, even as her eyes begin to close and yawn sneaks up on her.
“Forever,” I agree, draping a heavy blanket over us. Tomorrow the work starts, but right now there is only Kaethe. I have everything I have ever wanted right here in my arms. I welcome these new challenges knowing my mate and I will face them together.
