Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Each movement of her body encouraged his own movements -- not that he really needed any encouragement. But still. It was oddly, satisfying to know that he could pleasure her. To feel the way her body instinctively reacted to it and the way the words fled her lips. Filled with need for more . . . just as his own body was consumed with. Breathy grunts of pleasure with each thrust inside of her, muffled only due to the fact that his lips were still pressed against her skin. But the need to breathe became all too much and he forced his lips from her neck, sliding them up to her mouth where he kissed her hard enough to bruise her lips, biting at them as if the pressure wasn't enough.
Even when he pulled away enough to talk, his forehead pressed against hers, nipping at her jaw between his words. "Do you cry out the same way for him?" He teased, somewhat rhetorically as he didn't exactly expect an answer. "Does he fill you as much as I do?" Oh the thought of how Helios would react to such a thing. But . . . suddenly, that was becoming secondary, and Arthur found himself needing to voice the words as if to remind himself of the reason he was doing this. Because, he was enjoying himself . . . a little too much. His fingers pressed harder into her thighs, his breath shorter as a groan of pleasure escaped him with the way his length throbbed inside of her, prompting him to thrust harder. Faster. Deeper.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT He would have chuckled with amusement had his lips not been occupied elsewhere. Still enjoying the taste of her skin, enjoying the way he could suck and toy with it between his lips, as his hand worked her inside. The way her hips moved, and the liquid proof of her need and enjoyed that seeped out of her . . . only made him harder. And made it more difficult to prolong the inevitable. He needed more than just his hand inside of her. He unlatched his mouth from her breast, though did not go far, dragging his lips up towards her collar bone, sucking at her skin once more, the thought of leaving marks wherever he could spurring on his actions. For Helios to return, to find his wife having been touched. To have the scent of him upon their bed. To know that she found pleasure with another.
Yes. It all was all fuelling his actions. His own desire. But this was not done without selfish intent. For Arthur knew full well that he too was deriving his own pleasure form all of this. He abruptly pulled his hand away, pushing his own pants down and kicking them off when they were low enough to do so. He then took hold of the fabric of her own and completed the task, bending her knee so that he could toss them off to the side. He didn't want to waste a moment. Guiding himself to her, he aligned himself on top, and without warning or any more building of the moment, he pushed his hips forward, slipping inside of her with ease and biting into the skin of her neck at the onslaught of pleasure that suddenly consumed his entire being. Once again, without waiting, he thrust again, and again, his hands lowering to either of her thighs as he pressed his fingers into her dark skin.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT So much was happening and he only knew he wanted more. He needed more. His cock ached in a way he had not thought possible with the sudden lustful urges that seemed to clearly be overwhelming them both. With the urgent way she pulled off his vest and shirt, and the way she moved his head to her bare chest, along with her words of encouragement. Or, perhaps demand. He wasn't sure. Nor did he care. Because he wanted it to. Once he released the skin of her neck from his lips, moving with her nonverbal command to hover to her chest, her next came in the form of words. Telling him to take off her pants. Yes. He wanted to. He wanted to feel her heat, the warmth between her legs, her slick centre.
He wanted to feel and mark all of her. His hands began to pull down her pants a little more, but didn't full give in to what she wanted. Not yet anyway. Though he was not far off. Pushing them to her knees, his fingers moved to her centre. "Ask me nicely," he demanded in return, before sliding a finger into her core, pressing into that singular spot to make her legs widen even more. To give her pleasure that her husband would forever remember whenever he touched her after this. His mouth simultaneously moved to her breast, engulfing it completely as he sucked hungrily on her luscious chest. His teeth scraped against her mound before biting into her nipple, teasing it between his teeth while his finger pressed harder into her; slipped deeper inside of her.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Feeling her nails scrape against his skin made him bite down on her lip to stifle any sound from escaping him. It was not a sound of pain that would have been emitted . . . but one of, pleasure. Odd. That he had found such strange, new sensations with this woman. A woman that he was merely using to get back at an enemy, yet the growing needed for her was transforming his motivations. Ones to be more directed at pleasure rather than revenge. And whatever her reasons were . . . they were strong enough to use her hands and mouth on him.
He heavily breathed when she broke the kiss for only a moment, having no intention to let it last long out of concern that rationality would register, and for some reason, they knew they shouldn't do this. But perhaps it was that forbidden nature of this all that made it more invigorating. As her lip moved along his chin, Arthur parted his lips to draw in breath, before his hands moved to her waist, lifting her up slightly and prompting her legs to wrap around him. He wanted to take her to bed. He wanted to taint the very surface that Helios lay with her so many times before. He wanted the man to remember what he had done to the woman he wed. And, logistically, Arthur wanted better access to her entire body. For he intended to mark her as she did him.
Carrying her the near distance, he set her down when they reached it, immediately moving himself on top of her as he kissed her with renewed vigour and intensity. Her now loosened shirt hanging over her as Arthur gripped it from the center and pulled it off, tossing it carelessly to the side as he sucked her bottom lip before lowering his head, kissing and nipping the skin of her collar bone before moving to her neck. It was here that he returned the favour, teeth sinking into her skin, teasing, tugging and toying with it between his teeth. His body now settled comfortably on top of her, leaving only a little space so that his hand could slid into the front of her pants.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT As Arthur's actions intensified, so did her own. He couldn't explain it. This sudden . . . shift in whatever was happening. The motivations behind it. Their intentions. Perhaps it was best not to over think. To just, be in the moment, as they both were aware of the risks. Yet, neither seemed to care. And still Arthur could not help but think if she was setting him up. And if she was, then it was too late to back down. The damage was done. He may as well enjoy the ride and bask in the repercussions that came after. When it came to confronting Helios. But the man slipped further from his mind as lust replaced it.
Especially with the way her teeth bit into his lip, causing him to sharply inhale at the sting of it . . . one that was not unwelcome. Teases of her being soft before re-emerging in his mind, silently encouraging her to be as aggressive as she needed to be. He could take it. Hell, he wanted it. He could feel the vest loosen, but didn't bother to aid with the remainder of the task. Instead, his hand on her hair moved to the veil, pulling out the pins that held it in place and letting it fall to the ground. Without wasting a moment, his hands went to the fastening of her shortly cropped shirt, hurriedly pulling them out. His body was starting to craving more. More to touch. More to taste. Just . . . more. More of her.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Her response started to push away any thoughts of breaking the . . . whatever this was. The moment. The intense lustful action. Whatever it was that drew this. For Arthur, it was the driving thought of what this woman meant to Helios. Though, in addition to that . . . he had to admit that she felt good. That her bite to his lip was a mix of pleasure and pain. And perhaps, this was the first time he felt something -- anything -- other than sheer rage to the man who killed all those he loved. It did not appear that either would back down . . . and Arthur would make it a point to show that he had no intention of stepping down first. Perhaps her earlier words were true: why not have some fun with all this.
Such thoughts were solidified when she began undoing the buckles of his vest. A uniform given to him by Helios. One he would burn when this was all over -- if he didn't die first. His other hand moved to the side his other one wasn't on, and wrapped around her, sliding up her back, fingers running through her long curled locks before twisting into the ones on the back of her head, tightly gripping it. Gripping her. He moved forward a little, and as they were not far from the table, he stopped only when her lower back touched the edge of it. Whatever surprise had consumed him before, had vanished, and his mouth worked against hers, pressing his tongue between her lips in a battle of dominance. As if to silently say, that he was not going to back down either.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur still wan't sure he believed her, about not having a choice. Or, if she didn't . . . that she hadn't fully embraced this life. But, he could not deny that there was at least some resentment she felt towards her husband. Still. It left him knowing that she would most likely tell Helios of what he had done, and Arthur was prepared for the fight that would ensue. It would be worth it. To see the man's face. To see his anger. Arthur was thinking over what to say in response to her teasing words, but there wasn't much time to react -- not verbally anyway.
For she took hold of his collar and pulled him down so that their lips met. He froze, numbed for a moment, as if caught off guard, yet he quickly recovered. Closing his eyes, his hand that she kept on her side slid behind her. Not strong enough to hold her close to him, but enough to embrace . . . whatever was happening. He breathed into the kiss, the sharpness of her teeth felt upon his lips. Yes, he was falling into her games and this was her last chance to call the bluff, to end this . . . before he lost all composure and unleashed everything into whatever was happening between them.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT This was not at all what Arthur expected would happen when tasked to guard Helios' wife. The mocking had been unexpected enough . . . but now, there was touching. Taunting taken to a whole other level as her hand moved on his stomach. He fought all instinct, remaining firmly in place. The thought of laying with her more and more tempting . . . but not born of desire for the woman. Not to say she wasn't, desirable. But Arthur's motivations were far darker. Far more geared towards revenge rather than pleasure. And to use a woman in such a way . . . he knew there was no coming back from that. His smirk grew when she told him that most of Helios' men were dumb and not welcome in a woman's bed.
"And I am the exception?" He asked sarcastically, making it clear in his tone that he didn't believe that he was actually the first. Not even pretend to think such a thing. Her latter question, coupled with her hand still upon his skin, and the fact that she tilted her head closer to him . . . caused him to clench his jaw, eyes locked onto her own, still refusing to move. Had it not been so natural, he may have even forgotten to breathe. "What makes you think you're so enjoyable?" He teased, an almost dare or challenge to his voice. Yes. He was going to call her bluff. He was going to see how far she was going to take this . . . and just how deep he was going to fall into this trap.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur wasn't entirely sure what was happening. Well, he wasn't an idiot . . . he knew what was happening. But, he wasn't certain as to whether she was bluffing. Whether she was testing him to see how far he would let this go. He most likely wasn't the only man she attempted to seduce . . . but how did it end? With her claiming to Helios they had tried to take advantage? With her having a justifiable reason to kill them should she claim it was forced? For her to weed out any traitors against her husband? There were so many possibilities as to what her motives were . . . yet only one thought rung in Arthur's mind. The kind of revenge that could be had should he take Helios' wife to bed.
Yes; Arthur truly had lost all honour. He was too consumed with the need for revenge. To spite Helios any possible way he could and right now, perhaps that was in the form of a woman. That is, if she took it that far. Arthur continued to remain still, continued to remain stoic. Despite her fingers upon his stomach and her moving his hand toward her body. "Something tells me, there is nothing soft about you at all," he said almost teasingly. Tauntingly. His hand slid for a brief moment along her side before he pulled it back, letting it fall to his side. He slightly leaned forward, that same amused smirk on his face, trying to ignore her hand upon his stomach though it felt rather impossible. "Do many men fall victim to your seduction?" He asked, voicing his assumption that he was not the first . . . and probably wouldn't be last.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT She was exploring. This made Arthur unable to keep the smile from his lips upon hearing that. How . . . endearing! That she wished to explore and it landed her here. Was she from a neighbouring kingdom? Or was her estate far from the city? He found himself eager to ask, eager to learn more about her . . . and yet somehow, reminded himself, that she was a noble. And, he had no right to wish to get to know her. She then told him that she thought to have met all his knights, and he parted his lips to tell her that he was not one . . . yet it was her next question that immediately silenced him. His eyes slightly widening once more as he looked at her, but more out of . . . pleasant surprise than anything else.
She wanted to learn how to hold a sword?! How different she was from the nobles he had encountered thus far! Or at least the ones he saw from a distance! He knew on the one hand, he shouldn't. Despite her request, he should tell her the truth for she believed him to be a knight. He should tell her that he was not. That he was a servant. That . . . "Of course, My Lady," he blurted out. The inner conflict strong, yet intrigue gave way to his morals. He was lying . . . and he knew it wasn't right. "Are you right handed or left handed my Lady?" He asked her. "For it will effect which hand you grasp it with, and how you position your feet when taking your stance." This was so, so wrong. Yet . . . perhaps he could escape for just a moment from the reality of his life, and pretend, that showing a beautiful woman how to hold a sword, was just another day as a knight.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur slightly stiffened upon hearing her words. Though, it was not just her words . . . but the fact that she reached out and began toying with the laces on his shirt. Once again, he did not know what game she was playing at. What form of manipulation she was taking on. He knew she was toying with him . . . but to what purpose, he wasn't sure. He had to fight the urge to take hold of her wrist and push her hand away with his own. Yet, something inside of him left him frozen in place, still working to keep that stoic composure. That, calm demeanour. Even at the revolting thought of sharing a bed with someone like Helios.
"I assure you, I am not," he told her bluntly at her latter spoken words. Truth was, he required the distraction from such a subject. Any intimacy with Helios was sickening. And he'd rather not dwell on the conversation. "If you do not satisfy him, I am sure he can find another." NOT him! "For perhaps even you. . . " He began to say while tilting his head to the side, a slight smirk on his face. "Have lost all soft touch." Words coinciding with his earlier ones of how she had a sharp tongue. Perhaps she once held softness . . . but the woman before him was hardened. That much was plain to see. Now if only she would release her touch on his laces, so that they could return to their earlier positions. Distant and silent.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur was so engrossed in his own self training, that he had not noticed a pair of eyes on him . . . that is, until he heard her voice. He froze, spinning around to see a woman. Not just any woman. Perhaps the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his entire life. He belatedly realized he was just staring, and he held no doubt in the way that she was dressed, that she was at the very least . . . a noble. He immediately dropped his gaze and lowered his head out of respect. "Thank you," he said quietly, knowing he should not be acting or speaking without respect. That he was a servant and . . . well, he should not even be keeping his eyes on her the way he had.
"I . . . " Someone had been watching him. That was when he realized the impact of her words. She thought him to be good. Very good! He was unused to such a compliment coming from one of a higher rank and he felt his heart swell with honour. Especially coming from a beautiful woman . . . what man could not enjoy the flattery?! "Did not realize anyone was watching," he said with a slight smile, feeling a bit sheepish. Would she report him to the king? Was he going to lose his job for using this area designated for knights? He felt his heart quicken in his chest, as if awaiting judgement . . . and yet, all he could think of was that a breathtaking woman thought he was good.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur knew that to be true when it came to the warriors he had here. There was a heirachy, and Helios was at the top of it. Arthur supposed that if it was in fact true that Guinevère was forced to marry him, then no one stood as his equal among the rankings. Still. It did not yet evoke sympathy from him to hear of Guinevère's plight. He did not even know for certain whether it was true or not. He looked at her when she gave him advice, speaking of how once he showed weakness, he would be dead. He would be done with him. "Advice that seems to be relevant to you as well," he told her. Meaning, that if what she said were true, then Helios would eventually be done with her as well.
Especially if she made it a habit to reject his gifts. Upon her next words, he knew he had to speak carefully. The idea of all of this being a ploy against him not yet fled from his mind. Not yet dismissed as a possibility. "I serve Helios, not you," he stated bluntly. "I don't care for whichever women he has warming his bed." Whether there was her, or another. Or multiple. "I serve only him." Here, it was about surviving. He did what he had to do. And he did what he needed to. Just as she did if what she said was true. But among the people, everyone just strove to survive. Few were here willingly. It was quite literally life or death. Though, his words were said with the hope of keeping up pretence. He would have chosen death long ago had he not had a reason to survive. Once that reason was over, he was unsure what would be left in this world for him.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Did he always do what he was told. No. Though he technically was, it wasn't without higher purpose. So he knew he had to swallow it back, and set aside his pride -- if he even had any left. Perhaps he didn't. But what he did know, was that to be provoked, could risk exposure and the slightest doubt in his loyalty to Helios. He had already been in this hellhole for 3 weeks, he didn't want to drag it out any longer than what was absolutely necessary. Though, the most prominent reply on his mind was What other choice is there. Arthur knew that even without his ulterior motives, he would have still be forced here. Forced to fight. Though, he supposed the difference was . . . he would have rather died than serve Helios. His existence would not have lasted long had he not held another purpose.
She turned away once more, telling him that he didn't have a choice but to marry her and . . . he couldn't help but wonder if that was true. The previous question returning of whether she was just playing with him. This entire thing could be a test by Helios to determine whether he could truly trust Arthur or not. But, his gut feeling was telling him that it wasn't the case. Still. Who was he to trust what he had become. "So you stand by a man who you don't support?" He asked, trying to understand. If that was true . . . then maybe killing her was not the best option. "Once again, I find that hard to believe." For surely, she was not idle in such a place and did something to contribute to his terrors. "You can tell him yourself," he said, tossing the gift onto the table. "My task s to guard you. Not to be your tongue. Yours is sharp enough as it is." A bit of an insult; a bit of a tease.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur watched her reaction to the gift, as it was not one he'd been expecting. She turned away from it, and he couldn't help but wonder what she was playing at. Was this all part of her game? Part of her manipulation? Surely the wife of a warlord enjoyed such spoils; one that came at a cost too great. But instead of claiming it, she turned away from it, saying she wanted nothing to do with it. And . . . Arthur found that difficult to believe. Yet, at the same time, there was something oddly . . . genuine about it. Perhaps he was stupid and naive for thinking such. There was surely nothing more than what was on the surface in this hellhole. Helios and Guinevère included.
"I find that difficult to believe," he told her bluntly. "Why else marry such a man." It was both a statement and a question, though more of a rhetorical one for he had no interest in hearing of the story of how they married. He walked to her, standing directly in front of her for he had no desire to keep hold of the gift. "My orders were to give it to you." And if Helios found that he hadn't . . . well, Arthur was not going to give cause for suspicion. Unless of course, he succumbed to the fleeting temptation of killing her before Helios returned.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur knew that on some level, he should feel guilty. Perhaps he did . . . deep, deep, deep down inside. But then, why should he? She was the wife of a warlord. Such behavior automatically condoned. Those who supported Helios were no better than the man himself. Just like the queen. For it was people like her, and like Guinevère who encouraged his acts of cruelty. That was what Arthur had to remind himself of anyway, so that he could justify his murderous plan. His ploy to kill these people. So no. He did not get out. He did step away, waiting by the door, not watching her every move thought at the same time, not letting her out of his sight.
The day passed on as such, night upon them, silence filling the room since there was nothing more than needed to be said between them. A light knock at the door alerted Arthur, and he turned to open it. Quiet voices hardly to be heard between him and a messenger, as he reached for the reached for the small package that was wrapped in a cloth. Arthur closed the door and turned to Guinevère, taking a few steps towards her. The package in his hand may as well have been soaked in blood, for who knew who had to die on order for her to enjoy the spoils of a raid. "A gift from Helios," he said handing it to her, trying not to choke on the words and what it meant for village full of innocent people to be attacked by him.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Odd, how things had taken such an unexpected turn in Arthur's life. His upbringing had been simple, but happy. He had a loving mother, one who kept him sheltered from the darkness of the world. But, in her absence -- her death -- Arthur had been in need for work, and the memories of his mother too painful to remain in the place they called home. He wished to feel close to her, to hear stories of those who knew her. And what better place to do that than to go where she was born: Camelot city. She had once been a servant in the royal household and Arthur was fortunate to find himself in a similar position. With his background, and the family history, he was granted one of the highest honours -- as it only took a short time to reach there.
He was servant to the king. Truth be told, Arthur did not know a great deal of Uther Pendragon. The man seemed detached, cold but he was strong. For anyone to rule a kingdom the way he did, one had to be incredibly strong. And then there was his ward, that Arthur had yet to meet. He had barley met all the other servants in the castle! It was enormous and full of life. The city was truly a drastic change from the village he had grown up in which was both good and bad, as it did make him miss home. Currently, he was taking advantage on an empty training field. He couldn't resist picking up one of the practice swords, doing a quick look around to ensure no one was watching -- so that he was not to get into trouble.
And soon enough, he fell into a rhythm. He entered a dance with the sword, skilfully manoeuvring it. How incredibly it would be to be a knight. To serve the crown with honour. Arthur knew it was an impossibility, but that did not mean he could never pick up a sword. That he could not train, as informally as he was. He felt as so much ease with such a way . . . as if he was one with it. As if somehow, this was his true calling. But alas, such foolish notions were ones he knew he had to set to rest. He was a servant. Nothing more than that.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur closed his eyes when she tossed the drink at him, belatedly opening them as his tongue ran over his lips, the taste of wine upon them and now covering his face. It seemed that she had struck a nerve, just as she had struck one within him. Yet, he felt no satisfaction or pride in being able to do so. It was no contest, and he knew his mother would not approve of such words. But then . . . had his mother been alive, he would not be saying them. "Fortunate then," he said in the same stoic tone, clearly not having learned his lesson.
"That he was spared the sight of his daughter in such a role." Arthur stepped past her to reach for the towel upon the table, using it to wipe his face before tossing it at her feet. "I will detain you no further. Carry on with your tasks, and I will continue with my duty." He knew that his words could have triggered another physical reaction, and despite whatever honour he lacked, he would not fight a woman. So with that, he took only a few steps back, still in close proximity to her as he kept his gaze upon her. Yes, his mother would be ashamed of him indeed but he did what he had to. People like Helios, and Guinevère should not live to kill others.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Arthur's eyes remained locked onto her as she shifted closer, speaking of how many he had to kill. He was not proud of it; of having to fight others for survival. He already felt dead on the inside, the only thing keeping him going was the thought of bringing justice. Each men that fell, was a casualty of the war against corruption. Arthur knew he held no more honour. Such a trait had indeed died with his mother. He was a man of the sword now. A man determined to use it to rid the world of this warlord.
But it was her latter spoken words that caused him to stiffen, a slight clench of his jaw. Part of him wanted to spit out that her husband had killed his mother . . . but he knew in doing so, it could incriminate him. It could cause suspicion and this woman held no loyalty to him. Quite the opposite. They were merely throwing words back and forth at each other like daggers . . . any inkling of his true motives and she would undoubtedly report back to her husband. But it was indeed difficult to hold back. To bite the words back. To spit out that her husband that she so loved and supported, had killed so many innocent people.
So instead, he just stood still. Too still. His eyes narrowing at her, not daring to avert his gaze. "As proud as your parents must be," he retorted. "Or did your father barter you for coin, and riches, so that you could be the--" He couldn't say the word, though there were ones that many called such a woman. "Wife of a warlord." Yes. She had struck a nerve within him. As if she herself had tainted the very memory of his mother. He hated Helios for what he had done. And he hated her for whatever encouragement and support she surely must have given him.

Tag: Guinevère Note: Better layout coming soon! for the love OF CAMELOT Three years. Well, good for her. That she married a ruthless man for so long. And who knows how long they knew each other prior. Arthur had no respect for a womanw ho could stand by and let her husband do such things. Most likely support him in them for, who didn't want power? She clearly desired it, considering her position and her choice of spouse. How cruel and unfair the world was. To keep within it the corrupt and strip from it the pure . . . like his mother. "I do not need luck," he stated bluntly as she wished him so.
He had no intention of lasting that long. He did not even intend to last a year. And neither would Helios. Arthur would either kill him or die in his attempt. Either way, he would not remain here for such a long duration of time. "I have the skills to keep me in place here." He paused for a moment, a bit of a smirk re-emerging on his features. "As I am sure you have your own skills that has kept the attentions of a warlord for such a length of time." Did they not bore easily? Perhaps not, if he had a wife who kept him . . . satisfied for so long.
