Delphi had just finished picking a bag full of peaches. She climbed carefully down from the tree and approached the lake with the water bottles.
Alton arrived at the lake just as she was climbing out of the tree. She had her back to him, and he ducked behind a rock near the water's edge, peering at her through a fissure.
She was wearing her training outfit, and the man was treated to a vision the likes of which he'd never seen before in his life; not in the relatively tame banned books that floated around among his men, and certainly not on his one or two visits to the brothel when he came of age and the older officers blooded them.
Her shapely legs lead up to a very curvy bottom, completely visible to him under her short skirt with panties that were a string that had disappeared somewhere he would love to inspect more closely.
She turned towards him as she landed on the ground and his opened even wider. He was afraid to blink and waste any of these sweet seconds.
Her luscious breasts strained the little top she wore, and Alton gulped. Some might say she was overly blessed in that department, but he had no complaints whatsoever. With any luck, those bosoms would split the stretched fabric in two.
Now he could see her face and hair for the first time; as he already knew from the jewellery store, she was a stunning beauty.
Softly wavy long brown hair with golden highlights, delicately exotic green eyes rimmed with thick, long lashes, flawless white skin. No wonder the Emperor kept them locked up in the palace, he thought. These were women worth stealing.
The water was muddy and shallow at the edge, completely unsuitable for drinking. She walked back to a flat rock, and he realised she planned to strip off her clothes.
Fuccckkk. He squeezed his eyes closed and turned his head away. It wasn't worth his life to see Delphine Chastain naked.
He scratched his neck, waited a few seconds, and then peeped through his closed eyes, which he cracked open a millimetre, reasoning that he needed not to lose sight of her.
Holy shit! His eyes flew wide open, and he huffed softly, like he'd been punched in the guts.
She faced him briefly, completely naked except for a dagger strapped to her upper thigh.
He felt himself go instantly hard, and he tried to adjust himself without making a noise.
Those boobs on that slim toned body of hers, and they were definitely natural, something they all knew wasn't the case for most of the Emperor's consorts… Her tiny waist widened into curvy hips, the sway of her back accentuating her generous ass.
It was like someone had drawn his dream woman for him and brought her to life.
Add that fiery personality, and he felt himself sinking even further into whatever this infatuation was that had plagued him since their first meeting… despite his best efforts to rid himself of this dangerous fixation.
She laid her little training outfit carefully on a rock with the bag of peaches, treating him to a view of her perfectly toned curvaceous ass as she bent over, and the smallest flash of her sweet little kitty. Pow! That hurt too.
He was starting to get very uncomfortable as his cock strained to get free of his tight, military-issue pants.
He watched her wade out past the shallows. She swam a little way and then stood and filled the water bottles, carrying them back to shore.
He decided to wait for her to get dressed before he captured her. She would definitely tell the Emperor if he grabbed her naked like this...
A little daydream started to form in his head, where he never returned her to the Emperor, and they lived blissfully on this little island, fishing, riding… and of course making lots of babies together… Heaven!
Just as she stepped back onto the sandy shore, he saw a tubiàn crocodile launch itself from the depths of the lake and half swim, half run through the shallows towards her.
She had her back to the beast, and there was no way she would turn and see it in time to defend herself.
He hurled himself from his hiding place and sprinted towards her.
Delphi saw the giant of a man tearing towards her. She turned to run and saw the crocodile which was leaping at her from the other direction. She reached for her dagger, which was still strapped to her naked thigh.
Before she could pull it free, Niko grabbed her around the waist and spun her out of harm's way.
As he slid past with her towards the sand, he thrust his broadsword through the soft underside of the mouth of the croc. It went right through the creature's head and out the other side. Killing it instantly.
He yanked his sword free, still holding Delphi around the waist. She tried to run backwards in the soft sand, and he fell right on top of her, his face inches from hers.
He grabbed her dagger and threw it aside, using the weight of his six-foot three body to trap her.
She was breathing rapidly as he stared intensely into her eyes, feeling her little panting breaths on his lips.
He glanced down at her huge breasts, squashed up against his chest, her nipples peeking out at him, and now he was breathing rapidly too.
Calm down Delphi, she told herself. You know what to do. Use your training. Come on girl. You've got this!
He moved his face an inch closer to hers so that their lips were almost touching, teasing her, waiting to draw a reaction.
When she didn't shy away or squeal, but instead, wrapped her arms around him and kissed him softly, he felt his heart go into overdrive. That was not the reaction he had been expecting!
Not that he was complaining! He didn't hold back.
He kissed her back passionately, pushing his tongue past her teeth and invading her mouth. He filled her mouth with his tongue, dominating her and tasting her soft sweetness, sucking and biting on her lips. She reached out tentatively with her tongue, darting to meet his in a little dance that was driving him wild.
Somewhere in the back of his mind he wondered if she was deliberately trying to seduce him… But to what end? She didn't have a weapon. Please! he thought. Seduce away!
He groaned as he let his hands roam down her naked torso, reaching for the curve of her hips.
Delphi could feel something very long and hard pressing into her belly. Not having any experience in such things, she could still guess what it was from her training.
Jesus, she thought, nice as this kissing stuff was, and all, and it was pretty nice she had to admit; I need to get out of this situation, and quickly.
The man's hands moved back up from her hips to her breasts, where he gently squeezed the overflow that wasn't squished between their chests.
"Holy hell, woman. These are insane," he whispered into her mouth.
Delphi tentatively reached up and stroked her hand through his thick sandy blond hair, trailing it down his cheek and running her fingers across his lips, popping her pinkie finger into his mouth and moving her lips to kiss his neck.
"Uhnn," he groaned.
He reached underneath her and squeezed her ass, pushing her hips up against him, his member still pressing insistently all the way from her honeypot up to her cleavage.
"Kiss me baby?" she breathed in her best babydoll voice.
"Are you sure?" he growled.
She nodded, fluttering her pretty green eyes at him.
He didn't have to be asked twice. Alton pinned her arms above her head and kissed her roughly with all of the force of the desire he was feeling.
Three, two, one! she counted in her head. She bit his lip at the same time as she brought her knee up as hard as she could and kneed the man in the groin.
He grunted with pain and fell sideways off her, clutching his bollocks.
She leapt to her feet and sprinted off, picking up her belongings on the way past.
"Thanks for saving me Commander," she called cheerily at him as she ran away. "Sorry about the crown jewels, but I'm not going back to the palace, so I don't need them."
