Strange Allies

~~~

Annowe sighed and pulled Haldir closer as his lips met hers. She had been a fool all along. How could she have not known what Haldir was asking of her when he offered to show her the bonding? Her mind was a whirl of thoughts until she felt Haldir’s desire caress her and she moaned softly against his tongue as her body quivered at his touch.

“Yes, little one,” he purred softly to her as his hands slid up the back of her dress to stroke her thighs.

His half closed dark eyes held her gaze as he continued to slowly brush his lips over hers, as his desire for her grew more intense. He would let her feel the full depth of his feelings for her and he would take her to touch his heart. Then she would understand. She would know how much she meant to him.

Annowe traced the outline of his strong features with her fingers, wanting to touch him everywhere. Would she ever see him again? Or would this be one of their last times together?

“Take off your tunic,” she murmured.

Haldir chuckled wickedly and she giggled at his look. “I want to touch your skin,” she amended. He was still too full of himself to be believed!

Without another comment, he obeyed, flinging his tunic into the floor. Instantly, Annowe’s hands were on his bare torso, touching him, stroking him and teasing him. He moaned softly as her fingers traced around his nipples then over his collarbone and down his shoulder to his hand. She placed one hand over his and he smiled at her to see how small her hand was in comparison.

Then her lips were on his and he moaned, pulling her to him as her tongue eagerly probed his mouth.

“Let me feel your full desire, little one,” he breathed as her hungry mouth moved over his neck and throat. How he wanted to feel that white hotness of her lust for him again! But this time it would also contain the sweetness of her love! The thought alone made his trousers tight.

Annowe moaned and sank her teeth into his well-muscled shoulder as she let her desire reach for him. She wanted to control it, to let it wash over him gradually as he would to her but she was not yet disciplined enough to hold it in check and it rushed at him, hitting him like a wave.

He gasped and trembled as it lashed at him. Blindly, he fumbled for her dress, trying to free her from her clothing. As suddenly as it hit him, her desire retreated and she stood up to remove the offending garment. Haldir groaned and fell back into the pillows as the intensity of it let go of him. And she had not even given him half of her lust! He grinned stupidly as the naiad stood naked before him.

“What?” She asked curiously.

He shook his head. What could he say to her? That he was happier than he thought he could ever be after Glorfindel? That he wanted her to kill him with her desire so he would not have to leave her?

Instead of answering, he held out his hand and she leaped into his arms, landing on him with a grunt. Their eager smiling lips met and Annowe sighed as her skin caressed his. She could not get enough of him. The sound of him, the smell of him, the taste of him, the way his bare skin felt on hers – she wanted to merge with him totally and reached for his desire.

Immediately she felt him reply as the warmth of his want grew, slowly surrounding her. But it was different this time. The color was deeper and more intense than she remembered and it felt as if it were sinking into her very soul, filling her with his presence.

“Yes,” he murmured as she pulled back to gaze at him curiously. “I would give myself to you completely, little one.”

“Then I would do the same,” she breathed, her heart trembling.

Gently she rested her cheek against his shoulder as she held tightly to him. What would happen if did give her self to him completely? He said it would not hurt him and she believed him.

Haldir felt her small hand grasp his hair a split second before the full force of her desire overwhelmed him. He cried out softly and immediately felt her hesitate.

“No,” he hissed eagerly, his heart pounding in his chest. “Give it to me!”

And it swept him up like a firestorm, lashing at him as he clung to her, gasping and moaning at the sensation. It was completely untamed, tossing him like a helpless leaf in a windstorm. He could see her thoughts and feelings race by, jumbled and disconnected as the intensity of her physical presence engulfed him.

He was blissfully aware of her naked body pressed against his, her heart thumping in her chest and her thighs pressing against his. He opened his eyes and tipped her chin up to him.

He smiled faintly and Annowe could feel his desire growing in her and she squirmed against him, clinging to him desperately. She knew what he could do to her and he would. He would not hold back now and neither would she!

The sensation of his want seemed to be everywhere around her and her body trembled in his arms. She moaned softly as it continued to grow, nearly suffocating her but she did not care. The feeling of being so totally and completely alive with him was the most wonderful thing she had ever felt – and they had not even physically merged yet!

When his lips met hers, she dug her fingers into his back and threw one leg over his hips as she grasped him tighter to her. He moaned and ran his hand up her naked thigh, pulling her closer as their tongues entwined and their mutual desire increased around them.

Tenderly, he stroked her secret place with his delicate fingers, feeling her wetness there. He groaned in agony, desperately needing to merge with her physically but needing to see her deepest heart first.

“I want you inside of me,” Annowe breathed. Her heart was racing and she feel him almost completely now as he settled into her.

Haldir slipped his hand between their bodies and quickly untied his trousers. Eagerly the nymph helped him remove them and when he was finally free of them, she thrust herself against him, pushing him over onto his back.

“Not quite yet,” he breathed as she wiggled eagerly.

Their eyes met and Annowe splayed her hand against his chest, trying to touch as much of his skin as possible with only her hand. She could feel him breathing and the warmth of his skin. She leaned closer and smelled his neck, closing her eyes and moaning softly.

“Yes, my wicked one,” she breathed against his neck as his hands caressed her aching skin.

She would let him feel it all now. Let him know what he had awakened in her! Let him pay for his foolishness! The intensity of her desire grew and Haldir moaned helplessly as she poured it into him. It was a firestorm of passion lashing at him and he pushed his own desire on her, urging her on, needing to merge with her totally before they joined physically.

Annowe moaned as she felt his want seep deep into her being. When he had surrounded her with it, she felt it explode in her and she gave a startled cry as he began to fill her completely, overwhelming her senses with his presence and desire for her.

His eager lips closed over hers and she trembled in his strong grasp as she realized he would see everything in her. There would be no hiding from him and there would be no more hiding from her self.

The intensity of their want leveled out, like the calm before a storm and Annowe could feel him inside of her, caressing her very being with his. And then she saw it again – that dark red ember she had seen when they bonded before.

“What is that?” She breathed against his lips as his eyes gazed drowsily into hers.

“Touch it,” he whispered. “It will not hurt me.”

Tentatively she reached for it, still unsure what it was. At her first light touch, it trembled and she gasped but did not retreat.

“Yes,” he murmured encouragingly. He needed her to touch that part of him, to understand how completely he wanted her.

Gathering up her courage, she plunged forward, letting her self touch it and she choked out a cry as she realized it was his heart. Dark red and burning brightly in him, smoldering just below the surface it was and she could see herself there in it. It was here that all of his reckless passion and past hurts were stored and she could see it all!

Suddenly she understood everything – why he had manipulated her, what he wanted and what he was willing to do to keep her. The intensity of it was overwhelming – she had no idea he was so taken with her! And she had been so cruel to him!

Haldir hissed softly as he felt her pull back slightly from him, frightened at the intensity inside of him yet curious to know him completely. She would come to him in good time, he was certain of it.

“Do not fret for me, little one,” he breathed. “I have you now.”

He held her close as he reached for her most secret place and he could feel her quivering in his grasp. Gently he caressed the outer edges of her deepest heart, seeing Legolas there.

“Now touch me as I touch you. Reach for me,” he urged. Annowe obeyed, reaching for the ember inside of him. As she touched it, she felt him touch her heart and she squeaked as the sensation of utterly belonging in him crashed against her.

“Haldir!” She cried, feeling her body tremble with restraint as she clung to him inside and out.

“Yes,” he hissed as he saw her naked heart. Eagerly he reached for it, needing to know that it was he in her deepest heart. As he caressed the delicate glow within her he gasped at the trembling beauty of it and what he felt there.

“Annowe,” he moaned. “Oh, little one!” He could not begin to express with words how humbled he felt seeing that deepest part of her nor how incredibly giddy he was at knowing that it was he in her heart and no one else.

Before he knew it, she was straddling him, sliding his aching shaft deep inside of her and he cried out softly at the intensity of it as they became one – heart and body.

Haldir gasped and clutched her thighs as he writhed under her. He was almost blinded by the intensity of her lust for him and it felt so incredibly overwhelming that for a split second he was almost a bit frightened of it. He had truly created a monster with her but he did not care!

“Yes,” he moaned as the tempest of their mutual desire whipped into a frenzy around them. The brightness of it flashed sporadically, casting wild shadows on the wall as it continued to grow brighter.

“Haldir!” She cried as she felt her body tense for climax. The sensation of being completely merged with him was absolutely blissful! She was drowning in his lust, his heat, his want and his tender affection for her that he had hidden until now.

“Yes,” he encouraged, willing himself to wait for her. His body was shaking with the effort to contain himself.

He reached for her heart again as she touched his. That was the last push she needed, moaning blissfully as she contracted against his stiff rod. Immediately, he let himself go, thrusting his pelvis upwards as the naiad moaned helplessly convulsing with pleasure against him.

He cried out softly as he joined her, his body writhing with climax as he shuddered under her. They moaned in unison as their bodies and hearts merged into one bright being of bliss completely oblivious to anyone or anything outside of them selves.

She could feel Haldir totally – his heart and his body – deep inside of her, filling her completely and she moaned as she clung to him desperately, her entire being riding out the torrent of climax.

Haldir felt the tears of happiness prick the corner of his eyes as he was swept along in the whirlwind of their mutual desire. It was so much more intense than he had ever remembered! And he had needed it so desperately! How he had waited for another creature to awaken his latent desire since Glorfindel! And now he had her!

As the last waves lashed against him, he felt her well-concealed gentleness settle over him like a soft blanket and he sighed, wrapping his arms protectively around her as he basked in her warmth. He could lay her forever with her in their mutual desire.

Annowe moaned softly as he caressed her and murmured tender endearments to her , his smoldering desire for her still clinging to her being. How could she consider letting him go after such an intense experience? She pushed the thought from her mind, content now simply to lay with him as long as the night would last. There would always be time for regrets.
