If Only{{Kina/Ardell Dark Mabinogi}}You Could Have Looked Like That Sooner

The elf's hand dropped, expression drooping at her unexpected reaction. He stood there for a second, then slowly stepped over to the bed and sat next to her. "An Adonis, huh..." he murmured thoughtfully. The smile was trying to creep back again, but it refused to surface with her last words. His eyes swept over to her's. "Does it really matter that much...?" his voice was gentle.

"...." Kina glanced at him, eyes sad. "...Does it matter to you?" She inquired, pulling up her shirt and showing a long, large scar that stretched from her hip up towards her chest. Bears were no joke- especially the really, really big ones.

Ardell didn't blink at the large scar, but only a noting glance. He'd seen enough grotesque wounds and scars on the enslaved elves to desensitize him quite a bit. "No..." he answered, "It doesn't."

"..." Kina smiled, the sight sweet and almost pure. She looked down, blushing a little bit as she let the fabric of the shirt fall. "Then don't I feel silly..?" She replied, laughing gently.

Ardell returned the smile, hand dropping to between the two. A moment later, and it was tilted into a slight smirk. "So...an Adonis..." he thought again, "..You really think so?"

Kina smirked back. "...I get the feeling you're going to push this..." She replied, "...But yes. An Adonis." She blushed lightly, "...You've matured a lot. Not the same little shrimp I fell in love with all those years ago." She leaned in, pecking him playfully on the cheek.

This prompted a laugh- a soft chuckle of a noise. "Hm...okay." his arm rose again, this time to wrap itself around the human woman. Even with the supposed maturity, a bit of red could be seen on his face at the compliment.

Kina gave a sigh as his arm wrapped around her, loving the feeling of their closeness. "..." She leaned forward, mouth hovering over Ardell's ear and warm breath caressing the sensitive skin. After a moment, she gently clasped her teeth on the tip, pulling back and allowing them to lightly graze the skin before she let go.

A shiver ran along his skin at the feeling, the elf's eyes drooping. It had been years since he'd felt that. His eyes reopened, leaning in for a brief kiss.

Kina obliged, mouth meeting his halfway in it's journey and colliding fully and hungrily. As their lips tangled, her fingers found Ardell's ears. She began to stroke them, up and down at first and then in small circles.

Another shiver went through him, this time much rougher with excitement as his ears warmed. His other arm rose around her, and the both of them pulled her closer. The kiss sped up rapidly on his side.

At the speeding of the kiss on her lover's side, the young woman was all too happy to meet his pace. She pressed harder into it- hot mouth opening and allowing her tongue to slip between his lips. She shuddered at the taste of him- so familiar and yet so new.
Though her other hand continued its rubbing, one of them slid down Ardell's frame and to his upper thigh, where she squeezed promptingly, fingers playing closer and closer to his inner leg.

Ardell's excitement rose up and off of him in waves, the energy strong enough it was probably felt by his lover. As he felt her wandering hands, his own began to sneak up under her shirt.

Kina, feeling the excitement roll off of the elf in heavy bursts and feeling his hands becoming bold, now desired to pleasure her partner even further. She pushed him onto his back, crawling on top of him. Her knee now pressed perfectly between his legs, both of her hands were at his ears, and her lips were at his neck.

The elf seemed to tremble, a gasp escaping him and leaving in a low moan. His hands trailed over her back, moving in jerks at the large amount of emotion flooding him.

Kina's nails very lightly combed across the ears and her lips suckled at his skin, giving occasional nips. Her knee moved casually and carefully, though now and again she would give a hard press with it- the desire being that he would perhaps explode into a needy moan of her name- something she found no real shame in wanting after so many years without him.

It didn't take long for her to get what she wanted. Ardell's entire body was pulsating with pleasure, the fact relayed through inconsistent breaths of sound. Quickly one of these formed her name, simultaneously with one of her presses. "Ki-na-~....~..."

The groan worked well at snipping Kina's self-control loose, as now, her hands moved from his ears to his pants. "I...I can't wait anymore-- I can't play around anymore." She stuttered,voice demanding and desperate. "You need to take me- right. Now."

Ardell's head lifted, body still trembling with excitement. There was no sign of argument in his eyes, and where his hands launched at would certainly not discourage what Kina had in mind.

Of course, something else would just have to step in.

"....Oh Dear God, what did I wake up to!?" the voice piped up from a corner of the tent, from a certain wooden bow. Light emanated from it, pulsing with the words.

Kina- entranced by her lustful desire, blocked the bow's voice out of her head. Her shirt flew off- ontop of the bow. Following that went Ardell's- her pants, his pants, and all undergarments were gone in near record time.

The elf had turned from surprise at the spoken voice- but quickly had his attention returned to his lover during her assault on clothing. He didn't get a chance to warn her.

For...as would be expected, Ardell was not an exception to the many and various wounds damaging so many of the elves in the camp. His body held many scars, decorating his skin in a colorless web of past damage. Some were minor and held to the smaller parts of his body, such as the feet and hands. But the worst were in the center of his body.

It looked like a pit had fallen into his hip. Much of the skin was discolored from a horrible collision, and the muscle itself seemed as though it had been brutally ripped from his frame. From seeing the scars alone, it was a wonder how they had been able to heal at all without first killing him; the wound must have near cut through him.

Ardell carefully watched Kina's face.

Kina halted in her desperate attempt at prurience. She stared at his body in horror and shock. For a long few moments, she did nothing but stare. Suddenly her eyes began to cloud up, the young woman leaning down to his most prominent wound and kissing it as sweetly as she could manage. "....Oh Ardell..." She whimpered, shoulders shaking, "...What did they...do to you...?"

Ardell watched her with low eyes, but eventually glanced away at her words. He didn't answer at first. "A..train cart." his voice was a murmur. "They threw one at me...." a hand rose to her back, brushing back and forth in a soothing gesture. He gave a small smile, though a sad one. It was such a massive understatement. A single collision would not have done such damage. Multiple collisions, however, such as a giant grabbing the train cart and repeatedly bashing it over Ardell's body...

"I was lucky that Enoch was nearby." Kina's reaction was distressing to the blond elf.

Kina gave a heartbroken whimper, her forehead lying against his stomach. "....Ardell..." Was all she could get out as she tried to fight back tears.

"...Hey..." he soothed, arms holding the human woman. "I'm alright....it could have been far worse."
