I stood there chewing my cud like a fawn-swollen doe, unsure of what to do next. Unsure of even what to think.
If that wasn’t an invitation, then I’m a gnome on stilts.

PAIGE
The door closed behind me, and, despite my placid demeanor, my heart was thudding a mile a minute. I can’t believe I just said that. I can’t believe I just did that! It’s scary but also thrilling to think that he might take me up on my offer.
I’m surprised at how spartan it is inside his bedroom. There are no decorations, no banners, and no paintings on the wall. This is a stark contrast from other orc homes I’ve seen. They usually have keepsakes or trophies from battles, at the very least. His personal space is almost … sterile. Like he’s hiding everything about himself rather than splashing it on the walls.
I suppose with him being the Longstrider and all that, he doesn’t spend a whole lot of time in this bedroom. I doubt I’m the first female in here, which kind of makes me jealous for some reason. And yet, I have a feeling that tonight is going to be momentous.
Or so I think until the minutes stretch by, and I start to feel more and more like I’ve been abandoned. I guess maybe he doesn’t want me after all ...
The door opens partway. I glanced sharply over and saw Jovak standing there, his eyes burning with hunger. His chiseled chest rises and falls in heavy breaths. I don’t know what to do next or what to say.
Don’t get me wrong, I know how the lovemaking thing works on a technical level. It’s just that I’ve never been in this position before. I keep waiting for him to do something, but it’s like he’s being held back. I don’t know if I should encourage him or not.
If I try to embolden him, it might just drive him away instead of bringing him into my web, as it were. But he’s just standing there with hungry eyes but immovable feet. I want him to stalk across the floor and take me in those powerful arms of his, and kiss me again.
Slowly, I reached behind my head and gathered the material of my shirt up, never breaking eye contact with him. His eyes widened slightly, his gaze darting down to the expanse of flesh bared on my belly as the shirt lifted from the motion.
My heart is pounding like a drumbeat, and my mind is zinging with excitement. I pulled the shirt off over my head, then tugged it away until my back was bare. Now I am holding the shirt in front of me. It’s still on my arms and covering my breasts, but not much else.
At last, I let the shirt slip away and revealed my breasts to him. His pupils dilated, and his nostrils flared as he took in my scent. I’m so ready to go. I’m shaking with need. I’ve never wanted a man to take me so badly in all my life.
I dropped the shirt to the floor and then grabbed the waist of my mannish trousers. I slid the garment off, down to my knees, and then to my ankles, and then I stepped out of the puddled material.
I now stand naked before him. Jovak moves, at last, entering the room and closing the door behind him. He stalked toward me, and I leaned into him as he took me into his arms. His hands touched my bare back for the first time, and a shiver ran down my spine.
“Paige …” he breathes my name like a one-word poem, eyes shining and glazed with desire. “Are you certain this is what you want?”
“I’ve never been more certain of anything.” I put my hand on his cheek, caressing the green-gray skin. His eyes squeezed shut as if the touch caused him pain. He trembled, perhaps with fear or many other things roiling inside him. I know the feeling, as I’m in the same boat.
Jovak leaned his face closer to mine. His warm breath tickled my skin, and then I felt the sublime press of his lips upon my own. I accepted his kiss willingly and eagerly. It seems like it’s been so long since he last kissed me, though I know it’s only been a few days. It might as well have been a decade.
I pressed my body against him, feeling the touch of his skin on mine. His furry loincloth rubbed against my belly, the triangular tip brushing my thighs. His cock twitched under the fur, and the thudding of his heartbeat was so close to my own.
The taste of his mouth is still new to me and yet somehow familiar. It doesn’t make any sense, and yet it does. Sort of like the attraction between us. In so many ways, we could not be more different. But right now, we’re on the same page. The same frequency. The chemistry is so thick you could scoop it with a fork.
Jovak’s kiss grows harder, deeper. His hands crush me to his body. I groan, but not from alarm, fear, or pain. It feels good to have him take me into his arms like this, taking my lips, taking everything, and yet giving back even more.
We came up for air, and our eyes met. He kissed me softly on the lips again, then stepped back to undo the ties on his belt. The loincloth drops to the floor. I take a moment to drink in the sight of him. His body is even more amazing naked, from his broad shoulders to his tapered waist, to the flared bulges of his thighs, which frame the most perfect cock I have ever seen.
His member is standing at attention, ready for me. Jovak took me into his arms again and kissed me. This time nothing is separating us but a sheen of sweat. I moaned into his mouth as he showered me with intense kisses.
Then Jovak dropped his lips to my neck, his hand caressing my hair.
“Paige,” he mumbles into my flesh. “I have longed to touch you for an eternity just like this.”
I cry out as his words send a deep, primal tremble through my pussy to emanate out to the rest of my body. His touches are like fire, threatening to consume me with passion. I cling to his body as he kisses his way down to my chest.
He carefully kisses each of my nipples before his tongue darts out of his mouth. The first overtly carnal touch, and it’s a doozy. My head flew back, and I let out a groan fit to wake the dead. I hope Laney really is as deep a sleeper as she claims.
My nipple hardened under his gentle, teasing ministrations. He suckled on the tender flesh, and I felt a sharp twinge run through my clit. I want him so badly. I want to feel him inside me so much I can’t stand it.
The nipple came out of Jovak’s mouth with a wet pop. He continued downward, kissing my belly, the soft skin around my navel, and farther down still. Jovak knelt in front of me and pushed my thighs apart with such a sweet dominance that I turned to putty.
