Chapter Text
Cu closes the door behind him, letting out a deep sigh. He shuffles off his vest and kicks his boots off to the side before stretching a dozen ways. Walking over to the bed, he pulls his pants off, takes a book off the nightstand, and sits on the firm mattress. Settling in against the plush pillows, he sets aside the bookmark and picks up where he’d left off.
Eidos had compiled and combined a wide array of tactical and strategic schools of thought into a sizable treatise, fitting for the long-time general of a renowned mercenary corps. Also nice of her to ensure every officer, including non-commissioned ones, had a copy. The ideas and doctrines set out in it had been the basis for almost every operation he’d ever planned, and even some he hadn’t.
Just as he gets to a segment reconciling Torrezonian naval doctrine with Eibosean small unit tactics, he hears a knock on the door. Without waiting, it opens just enough for a fit, curvy woman with wavy black hair down to her mid-back to slide into the room and close it behind her. Kali had chosen to wear a loose, flowing dress of sheer fabric that could be seen through with a mote of concentration. Cu and she smile at each other, the man replacing the bookmark and setting the treatise aside.
“Hey, Cu.” Her face rapidly reddening, Kali sways her hips walking to the bedside. “I know we’re going to fuck, but do you have a minute?”
She didn’t usually ask to talk, and Cu raises his eyebrows. “Sure, what do ye need?”
“Thanks.” She climbs onto the bed and nestles herself into Cu’s arms. “I... need a little advice. Insight, more like.”
He hugs her close, pressing his cheek into her soft hair. “Insight on what? I’m nae exactly a stellar example of how tae live life.”
Kali chuckles. “There’s a guy, Gavin MacIshdray, who’s asked me out. We barely met a few weeks ago, and... I know we Chroi tend to move fast, but...”
“Ye’r worried about who he is and whether he’ll be good? And about whether or not ye’ll be able tae say no if it doesn’t turn out?”
She falls silent for a moment. “Y-Yeah, I guess so. I’ve just... never had a guy take a serious interest in me before. I mean, we’ve been fuck buddies for the whole last year, but...”
“I’ve never made tae be more, I get it.” Truth be told, Cu had thought about it, but he didn’t feel worthy. Still doesn’t. He’s a drunk soldier, who’s he to settle down with a woman like Kali? “Ye worried ye won’t live up tae his expectations?”
“Well... I don’t know. I’ve been a whore and a waitress for years, I never got to finish my training or take the verd’goten... Dad wasn’t healthy enough and mom died, I couldn’t do it. Can any man of the isle be happy with me?”
Cu wraps his arms around her a little tighter. “If I were a better man I’d have taken a shot at ye. Figured ye deserve better than a depressed drunkard.”
“Aww, don’t talk about yourself like that. You’re always there for me, just like now. Though that might change soon enough, if I saw how Bethany looked at you right.”
“Maybe, but if I can I’ll still make time for ye. It’s what friends are for.”
She kisses his chest and wraps a hand around his. “Thanks, Cu. It means a lot that you’d do that for me. I just... I guess I expected to get asked out by someone I’ve known for a while, not someone I just met.”
“Well, things can come from unexpected places. Gav’s a good lad, solid head on his shoulders. We fought together in Tibrin, ye’ll do well with him.”
“Assuming it works out...”
Cu chuckles. “Well, ye won’t know until ye try. Donnae worry too much about the outcome right now. What’s important at this moment is, do ye want tae take him up on it? Do you want to date him?”
“I... I don’t know...” Kali shakes her head. “I mean, he seems pretty nice, and he’s treated me well so far, but it’s only been a couple weeks. Who knows what can change in the meantime?”
“Aye, true. Tell ye what: donnae let it tear ye up too much. Tell him ye want tae see how ye mesh as friends first, he’ll understand. If he doesn’t, then that’s a no straight out. A good man will give ye the space ye ask for, and from there pay close attention tae see if he’s a good fit. No need tae stress over it too much.”
She takes a few deep breaths, pressing into Cu’s chest as far as she can. After a few more moments, she pulls away to look him in the eye and run her hand down his chest. “Thanks, Cu. So much. I... I want to pamper you tonight, as thanks for being such a good friend. If I’ve read things right, Bethany’s going to snatch you up as soon as she figures out she’s got the hots for you something fierce, and I don’t want to come between that. But I can treat you special for a night.”
A smirk grows on Cu’s face. “Well, nothin’s said she wouldn’t go for a threesome, and ye know I’d be up for that.”
Kali giggles, leaning in to press her forehead into his. “Of course you would be, you horndog! And you could probably keep us both satisfied, too.”
She lays a kiss on his lips, and he shifts his hands to her hips. “Just don’t forget there’s a task for ye first. See if ye can bag an exclusive man first, that’s a lot easier tae be happy with.”
“Look at you, still looking out for me when you’re about to throw my panties across the room and ruin my pussy for a few days.” Kali cups Cu’s face with both hands and dives onto his lips, grinding into his lap as a hot wetness starts to grow on her lingerie bottoms. Cu’s loincloth strains to keep in his rapidly growing erection as he runs his hands all over her curves. He takes it slow, savouring his way along every inch of Kali’s soft skin, her fit figure only accentuated by that little bit of give when he presses his fingers in.
Kali moans into his mouth when he kneads her supple ass, and starts to grind into the tent in his loincloth. Cu returns the grinding, pulling her sheer dress up and over her hips. As he continues to bring it up towards her shoulders, he traces the curves of her waist, nearly wrapping his hands around her completely at her thinnest point.
When they break the kiss to breathe, Kali lifts her arms to let him pull the dress off her and toss it to the chair off to the side. Cu reaches around to undo the clasp of her bra as she returns to making out with him. Sliding it down her arms, he lets her throw it to join the dress and takes her tits in his hands. He gently rolls the soft mounds around, taking care not to squeeze, and Kali moans lustfully.
They stay close, tongues dancing a duel of passion as they feel each other up. Kali’s hands roam Cu’s muscled form, giving his delts, pecs, and biceps appreciative squeezes. Similarly, his hands satisfy themselves with her assets, caressing and kneading her plush chest and ass, and tracing every curve along the way. He settles on her chest after a few minutes, Kali’s big tits irresistibly drawing his hands to them.
Kali breaks the kissing, panting and gasping for breath, and giggling between gulps of air. “Nice to see you still like my chest, with a new milk girl in town.”
Cu chuckles, his own breathing laboured. “Size ain’t everything. Yer’s have a perk tae them despite bein’ on the bigger size, and that’s somethin’ nice.”
“And what if they sagged? Whatever will I do as an old woman?”
“Keep yerself in shape and it won’t be too bad. But a sag ain’t wrong on its own, ‘specially if ye’ve got the charms tae go with ‘em.” He strokes her cheek gently, and Kali presses into his palm. “Good men are more interested in you, than your body.”
She giggles and playfully flashes her eyebrows. “Is that why you think you’re not a good man?”
Cu can’t help but smile. “Maybe. But I’m sure gonna enjoy yer body tonight.”
Kali’s giggle turns to a laugh as Cu dives onto her chest, taking as much of one full, bouncy tit into his mouth as he can. She cradles his head into her with one arm, kissing the top of his head as she reaches down with her other arm. Fiddling with the fabric a little, she manages to undo the tie of his loincloth and Cu’s manhood springs free to slap into her ass. She coos with a sultry chuckle and starts to stroke him off, drawing a lustful groan from him.
He continues to knead her tits as Kali hot dogs him between her ass cheeks and grinds against him, holding his thick member in place with her free hand. She runs her finger along his urethral meatus and gets a twitch and throb for her effort.
Cu stops suckling her puffy nipple and leans over to his knapsack to open a side pocket. Kali reaches to snatch the small root he retrieves out of the pack from his hand and puts it between her teeth, keeping the sterilizing herb behind a silent demand for another kiss. He smiles and chuffs, taking her lips and using his tongue to pull it from her and allowing his lips to linger on hers for a few extra moments.
The seed-eater root will work as the most effective contraception he’s ever seen, and Cu swiftly chews and swallows so he can kiss Kali again. She intensifies her grinding to show her appreciation, pulling him down to her other tit once they break the kiss. Hot love juice drips onto his crotch as she angles her ass to grind her lower lips into him while she keeps his manhood snugly tucked into the valley of her ass.
Cu starts to roll his hips to meet her grinding, wrapping his arms around the small of her back. He sucks and gently munches on her tits, each one in turn, and rolling turns to bucking as a familiar pressure builds in his core. Kali whispers into his ear: “Getting close, huh? Want to paint my back white?”
He groans into her chest, and Kali squeezes her cheeks together around a rapidly expanding bulge near the base of his manhood. She takes two fingers and presses into it, the animal-like knot shivering and twitching. With a strained grunt, Cu lets loose, shooting several ropes of hot, white spunk up to land across Kali’s back and ass.
“Ooohh... so much.” She giggles as she guides his head up for a kiss. “I hope you have more in the tank, I haven’t gotten off yet.”
“Always,” Cu husks. “What kinda scum do ye take me for?”
“The kind that never leaves a woman dissatisfied~”
They share a chuckle as Kali lifts her ass up and lines up Cu’s tip with her sweltering entrance. Slowly lowering herself down, her eyes roll back in her head and she moans needily. He, too, groans at the tight, soaking wet glove that ripples along his length with every quickened breath she takes. With his knot already engorged, she doesn’t take all of it, but the way her love juices drizzle down over it adds a nice sensation to the already pleasurable penetration.
She lifts her ass again, slowly, her nether lips grasping at every millimetre of rigid flesh leaving her depths. At the apex, with his tip barely inside her, she lets herself slowly slide back down, releasing a deep, lusty breath. Cu’s hands roam Kali’s back and sides, tracing every familiar curve from her hips to her shoulder blades to her soft yet toned upper arms. Kali in turn grips onto his powerful shoulders, using his mountain man physique to brace herself for her titillatingly snail-like pace.
Hot and heavy breaths pass between them, pressing their foreheads into each other’s with an occasional kiss as they take their time enjoying each others’ bodies. After a few minutes, Cu shifts his hands to Kali’s plush ass, groping and kneading the soft cheeks and guiding her to a new, ramping pace. Soon, her pussy lips are smacking into his knot, opening slightly each time they meet as though kissing the animalistic part.
“I’m close,” Cu husks. “Where do ye want it?”
With a flirtatious smile, Kali speeds up. “You know where I want it. We’re safe, there’s no way I’m letting you get away with pulling out.”
With a smile gracing his own lips, Cu braces his legs and bucks his hips up into her. With a rapid series of wild thrusts, he buries himself to the hilt, Kali’s writhing walls parting wide to accommodate the knot. The pressure she applies to that most sensitive part of his manhood throws him over the edge, shooting several globs of hot, sticky cum into her depths.
Kali cries out in pleasure, an orgasm of her own crashing through her. They smash their lips together, making out for a full minute before finally parting to gulp down fresh air.
“Fuck, Cu. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that.”
“Well, lucky you. I don’t think I can get used tae that squeeze.”
“I guess we’ll never get bored in bed, then.” She giggles, then glances down and to the side. “Though, I guess we can’t do this anymore if I start dating.”
“No, but don’t take that as a bad thing. Ye’d gain a whole new man tae roll in bed with.”
Kali bites her lip, her gaze returning to the man here now. “Hopefully he’s as good as you.”
Cu gains a cocky grin and chuckles. “No one’s as good as me, but maybe he’s close.”
He doesn’t fully mean that, of course. Surely there are men out there better in bed than him, and there are definitely better men overall, but that doesn’t mean he can’t have a little fun with his ego once in a while. Kali understands, and bursts into hearty laughter. “Maybe he’s got a knot, too. You never know...”
“No, I guess ye don’t. But I’ve nae seen another half-tuatha wanderin’ about, so I think I can be pretty confident.”
She laughs again and leans onto Cu’s chest, purring into the soft hair there. “I guess you’d know more about that than me, but a girl can hope.”
“Hope works best when ye combine it with action. Like I said, Gav’s a good lad, and ye ought tae do well with him. But ye’ve got tae take him, a good relationship doesnae just come by and pick ye up.”
Kali nods into his chest, but stays silent. Her heartbeat against his own is a comforting feeling, and Cu closes his eyes to relish it. After a time, Kali shifts, his softening knot sliding out of her.
“Another round, big guy?”
Cu smiles. “Ye are insatiable, woman.”
“What can I say? You bring it out in me.”
He rolls over and on top of her, Kali giggling the whole way.
