TOVAI stiffened a little when he put my on his lap, his large member stiff under me. I sat upright, ramrod straight, and Erik put his arms around me. “Shhh, little one,” he said, using the pet name Birgir has called me since the day he showed up at my parent’s house. “Relax. It will be okay.”I took a deep breath and let him pull me backwards so that I was leaning against him, my mangled back gently resting on his chest. He took a bar of soap from the edge of the tub and started rubbing it on my arms, making gentle circles with the fragrant soap.I let him raise my arms and clean underneath, and then circle my breasts with the soap. He grazed the bar across my nipples that responded by becoming erect. He chuckled when he saw that, his head leaning over my shoulder looking down. I snuggled further back into his chest, relaxing further.He washed my belly, and I could feel my body responding, my hips starting to move under his ministrations. He put the soap aside and reached f
ERIK I left the bath chamber pleased. Tova was untouched, just as my mother promised. I don’t know why that made me so happy but the thought of someone else running their hands over her smooth skin or suckling on her firm, plump breasts made me jealous and angry. I closed my eyes and thought of Tova, draped over my lap, head thrown back and screaming in ecstasy as I fingered her. I got hard again just thinking about it. I pulled a loose tunic over the top of my head and heard a noise behind me. I saw that Tova had taken herself out of her bath and had put on the nightgown that one of the servants had laid out for her while we were in the tub. I gestured to the office. “Join me in there when you are ready. There is a robe in the closet if you are cold, but I believe my attendant has stocked the fire.” She nodded silently, still shy over what had just happened. I reached under my tunic and squeezed myself, trying to stop the throbbing. I wanted to throw her on the bed and t
ERIKI gave a nod to Birgir and he understood, standing up. Tova looked up from the map with alarm. “Are you leaving?” she asked, a quiver in her voice.Birgir looked at me with a warning look. “Yes, little one. It’s time to sleep. I will see you again tomorrow. If you are feeling up to it, I know Bo would like to see you. I will take you to the stables and ride with you if you would like.”She bit her lip and nodded. “Yes, my Keeper. I would like that.” I approved of the formal way she addressed him. He leaned forward and kissed her on the forehead, giving me a warning look that irritated me. I knew what he was wanting, but she was mine. I would do as I saw fit.Tova stood at the table, watching Birgir leave the room. We could hear the antechamber door shut and I reached out to touch Tova’s arm. She jumped but quickly composed herself.“It is time for bed,” I said. She demurred, looking down, but following me to the bedchamber.The servants had been in, draining the b
TOVAWhen Erik rolled off me, I don’t know what I expected. Certainly, no cuddling. That was something Liv and my other attendants whispered about, talking about how considerate their lovers were and how the cuddling afterwards was their favorite part. My instructors had spoken about sex as a duty, something that we completed and then went on our way, usually back to our own bedrooms. Erik laying next to me and staring at me was a little unnerving and I didn’t know what to do or where to look.I was exhausted from my long day and soon dozed off to sleep with him still stroking my face. Sometime in the middle of the night I felt him roll me over to my stomach and gently rub some cream onto my back. I kept quiet and pretended to sleep through it. I wasn’t sure of the proper response, and honestly, it shocked me. That was something an attendant would do, not a stuffy lover. Though, after tonight, I’m not sure stuffy would describe Erik’s lovemaking. I could feel that he was res
TOVAWe rode out to the bluffs. I rode hard, pleased at how much easier it was to ride Bo in britches than it was in a cumbersome dress. Slightly less cumbersome were the tunics I favored, but even then the excessive material bunched up or was caught on branches. I pulled up at my favorite spot and Birgir cantered next to me on Troi. The two steeds nuzzled each other and Birgir watched with a little bit of exasperation. “You need to get on with it,” he chided Bo, smacking him on the flank. I looked at him questioningly. “He and Troi keep flirting. It’s been a while since we’ve had a Sleipnir colt born and I need the big ox to quit sniffing around and mate already!” He gave an outraged look to Bo who seemed nonplussed. I laughed at the beast’s expression. “Perhaps he is not interested in mating,” I suggested. Birgir shook his head. “He mates with the ordinary horses in the stables. He’s just messing around with Troi.” He grunted with exasperation and then slid off Troi’s
TOVAI looked at the king with shock in my eyes. He smiled at me and licked his lips. “I told you that you would be punished if I had to ask twice.” He looked excited at the prospect and that scared me. I immediately untied the sash at my waist and began unbuttoning the shirt.“You didn’t ask twice, Sire,” I pointed out, somewhat breathlessly. He gave me a sly grin“You are correct, Tova. My mistake. I will be careful not to accidently remind you in the future. I think punishing you will be very. . .” he paused and took a strand of my hair that had come loose from the braid and tucked it behind my ear. “. . . fun. I think we would both enjoy it.”I shuddered, not sure what he was talking about. I can’t imagine any scenario I would enjoy a punishment. I have been whipped many times in the past, the last whipping I almost didn’t survive. Punishments sounded horrid.I continued to undress, pulling off the shirt and the undershirt underneath, then untying the ribbon at my wai
ERIKI reached over and stroked the side of Tova’s face. She had a funny look.“What are you thinking about?” I asked, surprising myself. Never in my life had I ever asked that question of anyone. I am King. I do not care what anyone else thinks. But with Tova, I’m finding that I do.She smiled and blushed. “I’m thinking what an odd pair we make.”I was confused. “Explain.”She shrugged and reached out to touch my cheek. “You’re tall, broad, and your hair is the perfect combination of blonde and red. You are muscular,” she used her finger to reach under the blankets, gently tracing my abdominal muscles, “and you are lean.” Her fingers danced over my hips. I groaned and rolled to my back, my member making a tent in the sheets. I couldn’t believe her touch was doing that to me.She continued. “I am dark, round and soft. I am not firm like you are, here.” She grasped my rod and squeezed gently. My self-control broke and I rolled over on top of her again, spreading her leg
ERIKI heard the antechamber door open and close, and I knew it was Birgir. He was the only one who would be brave enough to defy the guards and my orders. He was also smart enough to only do it when he knew it wouldn’t be an issue. Like now.He walked into the office carrying a paper wrapped parcel. He gave me a half bow and then handed Tova the package. “Thank you, Keeper,” she murmured. He bowed to her and she started tugging on the strings.“What is it?” I asked. I wasn’t sure how I felt about Tova receiving gifts from others.“It’s from Brunhild. She was making one of your illegitimates an outfit when I made the request for Tova’s clothing to her. She altered the boy’s clothing and had it fitted for Tova.” He looked at Tova who was opening the package with glee. “I have seen it and I liked it enough to tell her to make several more. Then I ran into Abot who told me that Tova is joining the march and that he was ordered to make sure she had clothing.” He shrugged. “B
