To Capture a Captain's Heart (closed)

"I'm still mad with you." Kayla said as her husband's arm snaked around her waist. "Until you can make it up to me, I'm going to be mad."
 
"What do I 'ave t'do?" He asked softly as he pressed a kiss just behind her ear and his hand splayed across her belly. He was at her command, she could feel that in his kiss and how he held her.
 
"I think you know." Kayla teased her husband, grinning as he held her close and pressed a kiss behind her ear. "You either have to make love to me here in this garden or buy me the biggest diamond ring in this kingdom."
 
"Considerin' the second option's easy since you're th'Queen... I think I'll take th'more challenging of th'two." Christopher's hands fell to her waist and he circled round front of her, drawing her toward the well-trimmed hedges and the leafy bushes. "Y'sure you want t'risk it? I'm game fer it."
 
"Of course I'm certain, my love." Kayla said with a grin on her lips as he pulled her towards the thick hedges that lined her garden.
 
Christopher pulled off his jacket, laying it and his shirt out beneath the cover of the hedges for her, and he laid her across them, chuckling as he kissed her while his hand slipped beneath her gown to draw her leg up against his waist and he pressed into the familiar cradle of her hips. "What would the people think, if they knew their lovely queen was so scandalous as t'take 'er Lord Protector in th'hedges, aye?" he murmured with a grin.
 
Kayla let out a gasp as he quickly moved her into position, her leg wrapping around his waist as he settled comfortably into the cradle of her hips. She kissed him passionately, looking up at him as he teased her with a grin.

"They would finally understand what a brute the Lord Protector really is." She teased back. "How he will do anything to take his wife wherever he wants."
 
"Brute, aye? Sure, a brute tha's willin' t'take th'blame fer both their insatiable ways," he growled against her throat before he reached between them to unbutton his trousers and lift the hem of her gown. After getting his blood rushing earlier in battle, he had energy and adrenaline left to spare for her.
 
"Take me like the brute that you are." Kayla whispered against his ear before she devilishly nipped the lobe, tugging on it roughly as he pulled her skirts to her waist.
 
Christopher couldn't help a dark groan of need, especially as he sunk deep into her core. "As m'queen commands," he half-snarled in pleasure. He braced his hands on her waist, looking down at her with the most wicked smirk she'd ever seen as he immediately thrust into her with the immense strength of a man who'd ridden horses his entire life and whose thighs and core were solid muscle.
 
"Chris." She gasped, her eyes wide as he thrust into her with the strength that he had within him. "Yes, love. Just like that."

She whispered those words, but they sounded so loud as he sank into her core over and over again, her walls gripping at him as he did so.
 
Christopher caught her in a hungry and incredibly sinful kiss just as that last syllable left her lips. She could feel his muscles rippling and contracting against her skin and she could see his strong chest and shoulders holding as a rock-solid anchor not just for himself, but for her as he braced her hips against his shirt which lay beneath her. Never had he felt so much power course through him while loving her, and he knew very well that it was from the battle earlier and the adrenaline and pure testosterone that had been released into his bloodstream from it.
 
Kayla had never felt this way when she was with Christopher. She truly felt his strength as he took over their love making. He was a beast, the soldier that she had always admired and lusted after. She whimpered as he kissed her with a hungry passion, their lips clinging to one another as he made her feel dizzy with lust.
 
Christopher was enjoying himself, but he thought of a way to surprise her. Usually when they made love, they faced one another for the tenderness, but with her wanting his power and speed, he decided a different position was in order. He pulled from her body with a grunt and turned her with some command in his touch onto her knees. He took hold of her waist and mounted her from behind. His pace resumed immediately, rocking her entire body with his strength.
 
Kayla gasped as she was suddenly turned to her hands and knees, her husband mounting her like a wild beast. She let out a cry of pleasure as he commanded her as she had asked, his body demanding so much from her and giving so much in return.
 
Christopher couldn't hold out too much longer, and he let her know that with a deep groan. Soon he was pulling her tightly back against his hardened body, one hand splayed across her belly and one across her breast as he let loose a flood of his seed into her belly. He didn't make a sound this time, only a soft gasp for air. His hand drifted from her belly to her little budded clit, massaging and stroking over and around it as if in thanks.
 
Kayla whimpered softly as her husband came, flooding her body with his seed as his fingers found their way to her clit and his hand cupped her breast. She felt her own body release, her hips bucking as she came. She wanted to scream out her pleasure, but she held back, reserved as they moved together in their love making.
 
Christopher leaned down over her, his arms wrapping around her middle and across her chest. He kissed at her neck warmly, but she could feel the exhaustion set into his body after giving her his all and after the spar with Kjersten. "You're going to... run me ragged..." He panted out between breaths.
 
"Good." Kayla murmured as she pressed a kiss to her husband's lips. "It'll keep you out of trouble."

She smiled up at him, sighing in contentment. "I love you, my sweet Captain."
 
"I'll ne'er be out o' trouble," Christopher chuckled before he sought another kiss. "And I love you, m'queen..."

They eventually made their way inside and up to their own room for a well-deserved rest. They needed it, especially when the next morning came with news that, through some traitor either in the spy network or in the jail guard, Jarjaan Sedgerickssen had escaped prison and left his wife behind despite her begging to go with him. She revealed the traitor quickly, but no one knew where Jarjaan had fled to. The best guess among Christopher and his men was that the former Archduke had gone to some hidden Loyalist headquarters for sanctuary.

Christopher was the one to deliver this news to Kayla after he'd had to miss breakfast to investigate. He came to sit by her at lunch and sighed, saying simply, "... Sedgerickssen's escaped."
 
Kayla had just settled down to lunch at her desk while she worked when Christopher came in with the news that Sedgerickssen had escaped. She let out a long sigh, sitting back in her chair as she looked down at the food that she had just lost her appetite for. This man would be the bane of her existence, it seemed.

"I want it known that anyone found harboring him will be treated as a criminal as well. I will not tolerate traitors in this kingdom." Kayla said, looking to her husband with the Ghis fire burning in her eyes.
 
"I've sent my lieutenant to put out a bounty on him, but I'll make an official announcement tonight. Ulfric is arranging his men for tighter security around the palace and I'm doing the same with all of Trondheim and our surrounding area. Odds are, he will have fled a ways to his allies." Christopher sighed, leaning his back against the wall. "Ulfric's suggested we keep a close eye on our more unruly holds within the country and warn Elhardt to do the same with his. The Loyalists seem to be trying to cause a rebellion."
 
"They can rebel all they like, Chris. I'm not going anywhere." Kayla said softly as she looked towards her husband. "These people need me. I'm not about to just run off into the night because I'm scared of a few rebels. There is still so much work to be done."

She had trips planned to the countryside in the following weeks. She wouldn't cancel and no amount of talk from her security or her advisers would make her think otherwise. She had learned from Brogan that to be a good leader, you had to be a people person. Shy as she was, she was working hard to make sure that every citizen had a chance to meet their Queen in person.
 
"You sound like Brogan," Christopher smiled. "And you shouldn't be scared anyway. You have the finest adviser in Europe and, I daresay the most handsome General at your defense." He stepped over to kiss her. "You just leave rebels and ex-Archdukes to me. You focus on your people. This is what I was trained for."
 
Kayla smiled as he kissed her gently, his towering form leaning over her as he told her to leave all of her troubles to him. She couldn't help but laugh as he boasted that it was what he'd been trained for.

"You were trained to care for horses, Chris." Kayla said with one eyebrow cocked. "You were too scrawny to lift a sword when you first started working in the stables."
