Of the Fells

[KieranSoares]

Theo slowly wrapped his arms around Valentina after her question. His daughters were the loss he couldn't let go of quite yet, and that showed in how tightly he held Valentina, looking for a little comfort. "Elena and Kasey..." he murmured, their names almost difficult to get out.

 

[heartofcourage]

"They're beautiful names." Valentina said softly as she noticed just how tightly he held her when he spoke about the little girls that he had lost. "And I know they would be incredibly proud of their Papa. Not many men would have been able to continue on after losing so much."

 

[KieranSoares]

Theo buried his face against her shoulder, taking in a deep, steadying breath to stop himself from weeping over the little girls for what seemed like the millionth time in those lonely years since their deaths. "Gods, I miss 'em..." he whispered.

 

[heartofcourage]

"And you should never stop missing them." Valentina said softly as she held him tightly. "No matter what happens between the two of us, I never want you to forget your little girls or your wife. They were a large part of your life."

 

[KieranSoares]

When Theo finally pulled back, he wiped away the tears that had just begun to fall. "I... I need to finish dinner before it burns." He had never meant to let on just how much he still hurt, especially not to Valentina.

 

[heartofcourage]

"Alright, mi amore." Valentina said softly, letting him alone to finish their dinner and to be alone with his thoughts. "I'll be tending the fire if you need me."

 

[KieranSoares]

"Val," he murmured before she got too far. "... Thank you, love..." He couldn't say much more than that, hoping those simple words told her how he appreciated her patience and love.

 

[heartofcourage]

"You never have to thank me for loving you." Valentina said with a gentle smile. "I would gladly do it no matter what."

 

[KieranSoares]

"Beauty," he murmured, touching her cheek once more. Dinner was lovely and quiet, followed by simply sitting in front of the fire and relaxing once the dishes were done. Theo let his head rest in Valentina's lap, his eyes closed as he simply enjoyed the moment.

 

[heartofcourage]

Valentina's fingers placed through Theo's hair as they sat in front of the fire. This moment was perfect and peaceful, everything she could have imagined a relationship to be. Theo completed a large part of her and it was nearly overwhelming in the intensity that she felt for him.

 

[KieranSoares]

Something took hold of Theo in that moment, and he looked up to meet her eyes for just a second before he sat up to kiss her like it was his last chance. His armwrapped about her waist, pulling her in tight.

 

[heartofcourage]

Val gasped as Theo was suddenly there, kissing her deeply and with an intensity that he hadn't shown before. His arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her tightly against his body. She gripped his broad shoulders, whimpering as they kiss suddenly ended and she was left staring into his eyes.

"What was that for?" She asked him with a breathless sigh.

 

[KieranSoares]

"I 'ave no idea," he told her quite honestly. He had no idea what had come over him, especially when he pressed her back against the fire-warmed wooden floor and kissed her again, letting this one last until they both forgot how to breathe.

 

[heartofcourage]

She didn't protest when he pressed her back against the floor, kissing her again with a slow burning passion that made her toes curl. She reached up and cupped his cheeks, kissing him again once they had caught their breath.

 

[KieranSoares]

"Val..." He whispered against her lips, unable to help himself when his hands began to unfasten her belt. He slid away her pants and pressed close as he could, tossing aside his shirt.

 

[heartofcourage]

Something had come over Theo and it seemed that his lusts were burning brightly inside of his body. Valentina whimpered as he pulled free her belt, her trousers soon gone as he pressed intimately against her body. She could feel his length hardening against the cradle of her hips, a long low moan issuing from her lips at the thought of making love to him again.

 

[KieranSoares]

His broad hands slipped beneath her shirt, fingers trailing over her skin as he pulled the cloth away to bare her skin for his hungry kisses and exploration. Her underclothes were gone in seconds, allowing him unrestricted access to her soft breasts and to suckle on one hard nipple with a need she'd never felt from him. He'd usually tamed any fire to be slow and gentle with her, but this time he seemed intent to show her what he was capable of.

 

[heartofcourage]

Valentina arched off the flood as Theo wrapped his lips around her nipple, suckling on it until she let out a long, hot moan. He was more rushed, more frantic. There was something about this place and the memories that he still hid from that had triggered all of this. She could only hold on to him for dear life and enjoy the ride that he was taking her on.

 

[KieranSoares]

Theo hardly waited to unbutton his trousers, not even caring to toss aside his tunic before plunging into her core. He gave a soft, groaning growl when he began to rock her body with deep and quick thrusts, grunting with effort as he held her tight to his chest.

 

[heartofcourage]

Valentina wrapped her legs around his hips, gasping as he thrust into her body easily. She clenched around him, savoring the sharp growl that sounded as he thrust into her deeply.

"Mi amore. That's it." She whispered against his ear, his large hands holding her tightly against his body. "Yes, love. More..."

 

[KieranSoares]

Theo could feel all his senses narrow in on Valentina as she encouraged him, and he proved he meant business when he pinned her firmly to the wooden floor and his powerful arms braced her and himself for his release of strength. He rocked her body with each thrust, seeming to reach deeper every time. He'd gone silent and his eyes were blazing and focused on her as if the world beyond had gone.

 

[heartofcourage]

Valentina had no idea where Theo had gone, but she had to admit that she liked the man that was left behind. He was still the same person that she had fallen in love with, but something had come over him. It was probably being back in the place that had left him heartbroken and aching. She simply had to be there for him and love him no matter what.

"Theo!" She cried out, her eyes clenching shut tightly as she came for him in a sudden rush, clinging to him as he thrust into her with abandon.

 

[KieranSoares]

Theo drew back with a dark growl of a groan, his seed spilling on the floor beneath them before he slowly settled against her and kissed her throat softly. His blood had begun to calm and cool and he came back into his own. "Val..." he breathed heavily.

 

[heartofcourage]

Val was panting as Theo pulled from her, spilling his seed onto the floor before he was back over her body. She let out a sigh as he kissed her throat warmly, calming down as they both basked in the afterglow of their love making.

"What got into you?" She asked softly, her lips pressed against his own as her dark eyes stared up into his own.

 

[KieranSoares]

"I 'ave no idea," he half-whispered and let his head rest against her shoulder. He'd even startled himself, being so suddenly upon Valentina without a thought. "Maybe I jus' needed you," he murmured.
