First Knight: Veila

It wasn’t long before I heard Veila coming up the path, as she came into view I was somewhat surprised to see she was wearing her regular traveling clothes and carrying a small pack with her.  She nodded to me as she neared the pool’s edge.  “Evening Knight.  How’s the best night of your live going so far?”

 

“Pretty good actually.  The… strain is beginning to get to me a little though.”

 

“Hmm… I’d imagine.  Five girls in a row, huh?  Well… Rina said she was coming up here to talk, but given the dress she was wearing I’m just going to assume she was speaking with ‘body language’ as it were.”

 

She continued in a casual voice, “Yeah… So I figured you’d be getting a little tired by now, and I figured I’d bring some food up.  You know… to keep your energy level high.  It’s mostly dried trail food such as jerked meat, slightly stale bread, and some cheese.  Actually it’s all really quite good, but it appears that all the food here consists of real meals for the guests of the Grove and trail food for the rangers and druids who actually live and work here.”

 

“Thanks for thinking of me.  It's been hours since I ate, I’m kinda famished right now to tell you the truth.”  Saying that I cleared off an area near the pool edge and started to set up some unused towels as a picnic blanket and began to pour two glasses of wine, “Come on in, the water is great and I just opened another bottle of wine.”

 

Before I could even turn around, the bag that Veila was carrying was tossed on the towel and I heard a splash behind me.  I turned around to see Veila’s naked form rising from the water.  She smiled and gave a satisfied sigh, “You’re right.  That was good.  Pass me a glass, will you?”

 

I smiled as she swam up next to me, “By all means.”

 

As I sipped my wine, Veila climbed up on the edge of the pool leaning out over the towel to open her bag.  It was a pleasantly distracting view and as such I nearly missed what she was saying, “So... which do you prefer?  Cheese, bread, or meat?”

 

“Huh?  Oh, well I could eat anything right now, but since we’re drinking wine how about we start with the cheese?  I think that’s the right combination.”

 

“Hrmph.  Hells if I know.  But cheese it is.”

 

She tossed be a solid block of cheese and we sat there eating for a few moments before I chimed up, “We’re rather a ridiculous tableau aren’t we?  Eating cheese by the block, sipping wine from a fancy glass, and completely naked in a hot spring.”

 

Veila shrugged, “I don’t know.  I never really bothered about the ‘proper’ way to do things, so I guess this seems just as natural to me as anything else.”

 

“It’s really not a major issue in most cases.  I just decided to learn it so I never have to worry about it again.”

 

“Good idea.  Speaking of things you’ll never have to do again, care for any of this jerked meat?”

 

I nearly choked on my wine at that but accepted the food with a smile.  “Thank you for that, Veila.”

 

As we ate she leaned back a little, the kind of stance you take when you want to say something that you’ve been thinking about a lot in a casual manner.  “So… there was a reason I chose to go last tonight.”

 

“Oh?  What would that be?”

 

She smiled a sultry half grin, “For your entertainment obviously.  I’m sure you’ve had your fill of the other girls asking for the same tender loving over and over, so I thought that since I’ve actually tread this ground before that I could offer you something special to end night on.  Tell me Knight, have you ever had yourself pleasured by a woman using only her mouth?”

 

“Err… actually yes.  Earlier tonight in fact.”

 

Veila's ears immediately drooped with surprise and disappointment, “Huh?  Really?  Who was it?  If I may ask.”

 

I shrugged, although I had told Rina about Sieghild’s skills, I felt that letting Veila in on that would only cause some group tension, “That’s their secret to tell you if they want.”

 

“Oh… well then…” Veila rallied herself and put back on her smile from before, “Well there’s other things that I’m sure they would never dare to do, for instance, are you interested in traveling down some say… back roads?  You know, pounding at the back door until she lets you come inside?”

 

“Actually yes.  Tonight again as well.”

 

“What?  Who… never mind…”

 

“Listen, if you want to do something, just say so.  You don’t have to do something unique – “

 

“No, no.  I am going to do something special for you.  I just need to think of what it should be.”

 

“Well, you already brought me food, so you’re one up on them already.”

 

“Hrmph.  I’m not a housewife!  I’ll… I’ll figure out something.”

 

As we sat there, eating the food and drinking wine, music began to play.  I remember hearing something about entertainment at the springs and how they often hired bardic troupes to entertain the visitors there.  I turned to Veila, “Well, while you are thinking of that, come on,” I guided her out of the pool and put a robe around her.  

 

As I was putting my own one on Veila asked, “What are you doing?  Why did we get out?”

 

I shrugged, “Do you hear the music in the distance?”

 

She nodded, “Of course.  These ears aren’t just for show you know.”

 

“Good, hopefully your feet aren’t either because we’re going to dance for a while.”

 

As I put my arms around her, I was surprised to see her ears go rigid with panic, “Wait!  I don’t know how to dance like this!  That La Furlana I did at the ball was pretty much the extent of my skills!”

 

“All right, I’ll teach you then.  We’ll start out slow, just watch my feet and for the most part you will be reversing my movements.  For instance if I step forward with my right foot, you step back with your left.  Now give me your hand,” Veila tentatively extended her hand towards me, I took it and moved it into position on my waist.  “Good, now give me your other hand,” I took that one in my own hand and extended them out to the appropriate position.  I then stepped in towards her and placed my own hand on the small of her back.  

 

“All right Veila, since you’re new at this, we’ll start out with the basics, this is known as the Promenade position….”  We spent the next few minutes going over a few basic steps and then we started to dance.  I let Veila keep her eyes on her feet for the first few minutes then got her attention.

 

 

“All right Veila, you seem to have got it down, now let’s try it without looking at your toes.  Come on, chin up.”

 

Veila lifted her head and immediately found herself staring me in the eyes, to my surprise she flushed a little and her ears lowered in an almost… timid manner.  “Well that is interesting,” I thought to myself.

 

We continued to dance for several minutes.  Surprisingly Veila seemed rather awkward and kept tripping over herself, an oddity for someone as graceful as her.  Concerned, I asked “Are you feeling okay Veila?"

 

"Huh?  Oh, yeah.  Just peachy.  Sorry, it's just that I'm not used to... dancing like this..."

 

"That's okay.  You're doing great for your first time."

 

"Really, I am?  Err... I mean -"

 

"Don't worry about it.  Just try to relax and have fun."

 

"All... all right."

 

We danced for a few more minutes, I noticed that Veila seemed to be far more timid than usual.  I wondered if I had really caught her that off guard with simple dancing, but decided that it had to be more than that.  None the less, seeing her drop her normal sarcasm and snark was a pleasant experience, so I decided to throw her off a little more.   As we were nearing the end of the dance, I suddenly applied a small amount of pressure to Veila to guide her body into position and lowered her without warning into a dip.  When we recovered, she was red to her ear tips and was biting her lower lip something fierce.  At that moment I realized exactly what she was nervous about.  However I wanted to make sure and, I must confess, to have a little bit of fun with Veila for a change.

 

I straightened my robe unnecessarily, "Well that was fun.  Care for another drink?"

 

"Huh?  Uhh... Sure.  I'll have another glass."

 

She started to head for the pool edge by herself, but instead I matched pace with her, slid my arm into her hand, and elevated my arm so that she wound up being escorted by me to the poolside.  To my mild surprise she didn't pull away, but she did indeed blush harder.  "My, my," I thought to myself.  "It appears that our little cynical rogue has a bit of an inner romantic."

 

I poured her another glass of wine and sat down next to her.  "So... you don't do this often do you?"

 

"Huh?  What do you mean?  I've probably lain with more partners than you have, Knight."

 

"That may be true actually.  But it's not what I was talking about.  I was talking about... well, courtship really.  You know, spending time with a member of the opposite gender, dances, taking them out for dinner, and other things like that."

 

"I went out to that play with you..."

 

"Yes, but you went with me and Aimèe.  That's hardly what I was talking about."

 

"Well... there was also...  Umm..."

 

"You haven't really been courted before, have you?"

 

Veila sighed and her ears drooped.  "No.  I can't say I have.  Usually everyone involved prefers to just cut to the chase as it were.  My last partner tried a few times before he..."

 

I remembered what the Golden Saber operatives had said about him and immediately felt bad about reminding her.  "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to remind you of your loss.  I forgot you never really had time to grieve over him.  If you need -"

 

"No, I'm good.  I hate grieving in front of others.  I prefer to do it in private..."

 

"All right... if you insist.  If you ever change your mind..."

 

"...Thank you, Knight.  I'll keep that in mind."

 

"You're welcome, Veila."

 

We sat there in uncomfortable and miserable silence for a while; to break it, I turned to Veila and asked, "So... you've never been properly courted before?"  In hindsight, this was probably not the wisest way to break the silence, but it worked.  

 

"Not really.  It's always been straight to the action for me.  Err... I realize that that doesn't exactly make me look good in your eyes..."

 

"Veila, you don't need to be ashamed of yourself.  However, you do deserve better.  A woman should be courted and treated like a queen by any man who wishes to enjoy their company, myself included."

 

"Heh.  If you were going to court women properly, you'd need several lifetimes to pull it off."

 

I chuckled, "At least six in fact.  One for each of you.  But... if you want we can put this off for now... take our time and do things properly.  I could -"

 

Veila chuckled, "Knight boy, just stop there.  Yes, I would like to be courted, but tonight I want to have some fun...  Some of the other girls from the Sussurri Notturni were teasing me for 'running after that Knight like a fresh maiden,' and I can't wait to see the looks on their faces when I tell them that you can satisfy six women in one night."

 

I couldn't help but smile a little as I stepped forward and began to undo her robe, "Well then, I wouldn't want it said that I kept a lady waiting..."

 

While I'm sure that Veila was expecting me to immediately start ravishing her, I instead leaned in to kiss her on the lips.  As she leaned back instinctively, I slowly removed her robe, dragging it out so that the soft material slowly dragged down her back as I lowered it to the ground.  With that out of the way, I wrapped my arms around Veila, gently touching the small of her back as I did.  

 

We stood there embraced locked in a kiss for a good while, when I pulled back I could see that Veila looked pleasantly surprised, like she enjoyed the simple act far more than she thought she would.  I leaned in again for another kiss which she eagerly accepted, and then I began to lower one hand down and along her rear, slowly slipping around it and down between her lets to find her opening.  I felt Veila gasp with surprise and pleasure as I began to tenderly tease her with my fingers.  She smiled a coy smile and slowly reached inside my robe to take my own manhood and began to gently stroke it.  We wound up standing the for some time, gently caressing and teasing each other and slowly exchanging kisses.  Finally I stopped kissing her on the lips and began to slowly move down her front, starting with her neck and moving on to her small, round breasts.  I teased her nipples with my tongue and enjoyed the sound of Veila moaning with delight.  As her nipples began to harden and jut out from her chest, I moved on further down to her stomach, her toned belly, and her round hips.  This produced a more… ticklish effect, but the sounds of Veila giggling and laughing uncontrollably as she begged me to move on were rather pleasing anyways.  Finally I reached my goal, as I gently opened Veila up with my fingers I probed her sex with my tongue.  At this point Veila was breathing heavily, sweat dripping down her body, and her legs were trembling.  Then I stopped.

 

Veila's eyes widened , "Wha?  Knight, please don’t stop.  I was so close…"

 

I smiled, "I know, that's why.  Couldn’t let you miss the main event now could I?  Don't worry, I'll keep going in a bit but I still need a little time to get my own strength back."

 

She groaned with dismay as she looked down, "Damn.  I should have realized that coming in sixth with you would make it hard for you to come with me.  Let me take my turn now…"

 

Veila guided me to a seated position and then went off to get some things from her bag.  When she returned, she was… clothed is not the right word… wearing an outfit of beads, gold chains, and string.  While many of the interesting parts of her were still covered, she still was showing significantly too much to be decent, which was perfect for the moment.  With that she began to dance, not the courtly dance we were doing earlier or even the La Furlana we did at the ball, this was a more… personal dance.  She moved along with the music that was still drifting in from the main areas and the effect was mesmerizing.  Instead of moving her feet she used her torso and her hips, articulating them so that I could see the way that her body moved and the control over it that she had.  The way the beads and gems moved and jangled on her was mesmerizing.  It wasn’t long before the sensuous display of talent had me ready again, but Veila wasn't finished.  Slowly she crawled on top of my waist.  "Martina asked me about this earlier, but I think you should see how someone with more… talent does it."

 

She then began to dance again, this time focusing on the movements of her waist as it slid and grinded against my manhood and the articulations and motions of her torso as she gently waved her breasts in my face.  I reached up for her, ready to take her then and there, but she gently pushed my hand aside, "No touching, Sir Knight.  Just sit back and enjoy the show."

 

At this point, she turned around and continued to dance , this time using the twisting and shaking of her hips to tease me with her well toned rear.  As she moved, she undid her hair and I could see the long strands brushing against her.  After a few minutes of this, she turned to look at me and said with another coy smile, "Are you ready now, Sir Knight?"

 

"More than ready, Veila."

 

Veila didn't change position much, she merely lifted her rear so that she could reach down and grab my manhood and move it into position.  She then lowered herself gently onto my shaft, sliding it deep inside her.  She slowly began to raise herself using her legs and hips and slide back down.  I didn’t say anything, but I was grateful for the change of pace as I was beginning to tire of being the active one tonight.  Veila began to work faster, her rear arse cheeks bouncing up and down on my waist and contracting around my shaft.  Both of us were moaning with delight when she decided to turn around.  Fortunately she did it carefully, so the sensation of her muscles twisting around my manhood was pleasant rather than painful, and now I could see her beautiful face and magnificent breasts.  She began to repeatedly slide herself up and down on me again, this time I gained an amazing view of her breasts as they bounced up and down with her movements.  She leaned in, arcing her back so her chest was in my face again and said, "You know… you can touch me now."

 

I didn’t need to be told twice.  I took one hand and placed on her rear, feeling the beautiful curves there and I used the other to push Veila's back closer towards me where I then resumed teasing her nipples with my tongue.  It wasn't long before we were both moaning, her juices were dripping down on me and I was about to erupt into her.  With a force of willpower and effort I began to thrust upwards, lifting my waist off the ground to meet Veila's body as it was on the way down.  She began to moan under her breath, "Oh Gods… yes.  Yes!  More!  More!" and then we came.  I felt my body shudder with the effort of ejecting this sixth load of the night and her juices came dripping down on me.  We sat there in silence for a moment, Veila was draped across my chest and panting along with me.  

 

After a few minutes, Veila looked down at me and spoke, "You know, I wouldn't mind being courted by you, but if you're ever in the mood for some simple fun just let me know and I'll be ready.  You sir, are good.  Very good."

 

"You're not bad yourself Veila.  That was an amazing dance, and the follow up was even better.  And it will be a pleasure to show you the finer aspects of romantic courtship."

 

We laid there for another hour or so before we  got up to head back.  We cleaned up the area and ourselves once again, relaxed in the hot spring for another hour and then began to our cabin for a well deserved rest.
