Forget Horizon

Kaiden let out an exclamation of surprise that was quickly stifled by Shepards mouth as she grabbed his shoulders and yanked him down to kiss her. He collapsed on top of her body, arms giving out at the sudden movement she made that caught him off guard, and he was painfully aware that he must be crushing her with his weight sprawled so clumsily on top of her. Shepard however made no movement nor indication that she was uncomfortable, his weight above her again felt glorious albeit a little difficult to breathe perhaps. But breathing was the last thing on her mind as she kissed him feverishly; her hands on his face, his neck, shoulders, back, all clinging him close to her, never wanting to let him go again.

Feeling light-headed and short of breath Shepard suddenly pulled away with a gasp, craning her neck back to seek fresh air and giving him back access to all of those sensitive little spots. She moaned as he nipped at the skin of her neck, hands convulsing in the fabric of his shirt; she needed him now.

She tugged at his clothing to no avail, finding it too firmly pinned between them to expose the smooth expanse of his chest that she loved so much. His body was perfect, just the right amount of sculpted hard muscle with the odd scar here and there to make it look interesting and as if the physique was worked at out of necessity and not simply to look good; but it was a hell of a good bonus that Shepard wanted to indulge in. “Shit,” She hissed in frustration, hands balling into fists in his shirt so much so that she’d be leaving wrinkles in the military issue civvies (what an oxymoron they were but heck they all wore them).

Getting the hint Kaiden moved to his knees, pinning just her lower body to the bed, and tugged the shirt over his head. The soft lighting from the fish tank illuminated the olive tones of his skin, picking out the gentle lines of pectorals and abs. The shirt was swiftly discarded of upon the floor and he grinned down at Shepard’s hungry expression. “Better?” He asked.

Shepard smirked and growled with desire. Raising her upper body to reach him again she smoothed her hands over him finally touching skin, feeling the heat of it beneath her fingertips and wanting more. She kissed him quickly, “It’s a start.” She purred, reaching coyly for his belt buckle.

A part of her had half expected him to stop her hands as she tugged the leather strap through the metal buckle so he could continue to taunt and tease her by not letting her get at what she wanted. But he didn’t and as she slipped the belt from the loops and tossed it with a clatter to the floor and reached for the button and zip that fastened his pants she met his eyes and met nothing but a dark anticipation as he watched her.

Kaiden had wanted to stop her, to carry on teasing and taunting her until she met breaking point but as she tugged at the fastenings on his pants promising some relief to the hardness that was beginning to ache he changed his mind. It had been a long time for him too, longer in fact seeing as Shepard had been dead or comatose for most of it. He’d been on a date or two with that doctor on the Citadel but nothing had progressed past a little kissing, the body may have been more than willing but the mind had not been ready to take another woman to his bed; not while Shepard still haunted his thoughts and as much as he liked this doctor she just hadn’t been Shepard. But now it was Shepard that sat beneath him again, relieving him of his clothing and the wonder of what she was going to do next tightened his chest and hitched his breathing. He’d waited so long, not willing to replace her and now against all odds he had her back again it was almost too much for his lust filled mind to cope with and from her first gentle touch he knew it wouldn’t take much for him to lose it.

Shepard had loosened his pants away from his hips and shoved them down as far as they could fall and she reached for his underwear, tented about as far as they could strain. She ran delicate fleeting touches over the length of him and was rewarded with a soft moan and then more as she grasped him through the fabric remembering the size and feel of him.

His moans drove her crazy, she loved being able to elicit that sort of reaction from him again and after a few moments more squeezing and caressing him she reached creeping fingers for the waistband and tugged it away from his body.

This time she did feel his hands stop her, holding onto her own but not yet moving them away. “Shepard wait, I can’t…” Kaiden gasped and Shepard looked up to him with two horror filled eyes.

He was going to tell her he couldn’t do this, that he had to go, she was sure of it. “Kaiden,” She tried coaxing, clenching a fist around him again and eliciting a hiss from his lips.

“Shepard I’m sorry, it’s been so long and, I’d let you do anything you want, but I’m not going to last and I need to have you.” He purred desperately.

Shepard was so surprised that an uncontrollable giggle escaped her lips, she’d never laugh at him but it was the biggest relief to hear, insecurities getting the better of her.

“Well I’ll admit that laughing at me might do the trick, but it’s not exactly the way to go about making me feel better.” He huffed suddenly sounding slightly offended.

She shook her head, the giggles swiftly suppressed. “No, Kaiden, I’m sorry. I wasn’t laughing at you I promise.” She smoothed her hands through his hair and held his face so he’d look at her, “I was panicking again that you’d tell me you couldn’t do this and that you had to leave.”

He studied her eyes to read the sincerity in her words then let a small smile creep to his lips as he shook his head. “Not a chance Shepard. I don’t know what you’ve done to me but right now I need you and badly at that.”

Shepard smirked, “That’s good to hear, and for the record I don’t care how long you’re going to last right now because I don’t plan on letting you out of here any time soon.” She purred again, snaking her arms possessively around his shoulders; now she had him again she was going to enjoy him for as long as possible. “And right now I want to do something, if you’ll let me.”

Kaiden caught her lips and kissed her quick and rough, she sounded a little too possessive and he still wasn’t sure where this would be going come the morning but there was no way in hell he was up and leaving before the night was over so he let it slide. He was more intrigued by what she wanted to do to him, “And what is that?” He breathed against her mouth kissing her again and gripping her shoulders to try and lower her back down to the bed but this time it was her who stopped him.

“Something I was regretting not doing before when we were together,” She whispered giving him no hints, but he was quietly hoping… “You’ll have to let me up first though.”

“Hmm, but I do so like having you beneath me Shepard.” He breathed back in a velvet tone that made her shiver. “Such a power trip.”

“I don’t outrank you anymore Kaiden, can’t live the fantasy of dominating your CO anymore.” She teased wondering if that had been what he was hinting at or whether she’d just revealed to him the sort of thing that used to run through her mind when Kaiden was still her lieutenant.

He arched an eyebrow at her at that idea and it almost did seem a shame he couldn’t live out that little scenario again but it hadn’t changed all that much. “Doesn’t matter Shepard, I may have been promoted but you still like to be in control of everything you do and I like to see you squirm when I take it away.”

Shepard closed her eyes and shivered again, yes she had to admit she liked it too; the ever in control Commander Shepard liked to be dominated in the bedroom, albeit she didn’t much like to submit it was more the struggle that was fun. “mmm, I know and I will squirm for you all you like Kaiden but first, please…” Her hands trailed back down to his waist and below the waistband of his underwear, searching out the hot silken flesh she knew she’d find therein. She gently stroked him and Kaiden let out a low moan, “Let me taste you.” She breathed, her lips ghosting over his.

That had been what he was quietly hoping for, something they’d just never done for one reason or another and something he’d never wanted to have to ask her for. She felt him twitch in her hands as another moan rumbled low in his chest. He grabbed her very suddenly, crushing his lips to hers with a bruising force; imagining what it might feel like to have those lips wrapped around another part of his anatomy and kissing her all the harder in anticipation. His arms wrapped around her tightly and he flipped himself over onto his back pulling her over with him so she was suddenly on top.

She’d yelped with surprise, the sound muffled against his mouth, but she pulled away with a grin painted on her lips. “I take that as a yes then.” She said brightly kissing him quickly before dipping her head to his neck.

She loved the way his skin felt and tasted as she worked her way down. Mimicking the actions he’d bestowed on her own neck a little while before, Kaiden’s was not nearly so sensitive but it still managed to illicit some gasps of expectancy from him, she worked her way down. Taking her time over the spread of his chest and stomach that she loved so much, tracing each defined muscle contour with her tongue and fluttering kisses. She reached his belly button and the trail of hair that ran down the centre of his body into the confines of his underwear and looked up. Shepard tugged at his remaining clothing and Kaiden obligingly arched off of the bed so that she could slip them down over his thighs and leave him lying naked against her sheets.

Shepard took in the sight of him, laid bare and perfect on her bed, how she had longed to see that again, She shifted back and settled low on her knees between his thighs, Kaiden had raised his head to watch her anticipation burning in his dark eyes as she licked her lips teasingly and then lowered her head to him. Just a taste to begin with, delicate swipes of her tongue across the hot, hard flesh, urged on as Kaiden gasped his assent.

Gently she drew him into her mouth, encasing the tip of him in the wet heat and swirling her tongue around it seeking out the salty drops she knew would seep from him. Kaiden’s hands fisted in the sheets beneath him as he moaned, hips jerking slightly involuntarily and then rhythmically as Shepard bobbed her head a set a pace drawing him in as deep as she could without gagging before sliding back up sucking roughly and trailing her tongue. What she couldn’t draw into her mouth she grasped tightly in her hand and stroked in time with her movements.

Kaiden felt lost to the sensations that were coursing through his body, he’d watched as long as he could but had soon thrown his head back against the bed, eyes screwed shut tight and mouth open as he moaned in abandon. So long, it had been so long, solo flights were nothing in comparison with the pleasure her mouth could draw from him. He’d let of the sheet and dragged his fingers through her hair, mussing the tight knot that had barely fallen loose through all of their antics so far. He tugged on it hard enough to hurt feeling the urge to thrust deeper into her and trying to resist, still his hips jerked in time and Shepard held him steady controlling the pace that was both comfortable for her and pleasing for him.

His moans grew louder, making Shepard glad that her quarters were on a floor of their own on the Normandy SR2, if it had been the former Normandy they’d probably have awoken the entire crew. She knew he was close and upped her efforts, gripping him tighter, her mouth a rhythmic vacuum; jaw beginning to ache but she was nothing if not determined to finish him, he was close and she knew it.

“Fuck! Shepard I’m…” Was all the warning she got, spat out between gasps and moans as he reached his peak and erupted in climax. She held him fast in her mouth, drinking in his pleasure gleefully as he panted slowly recovering from the high.

Once he began to twitch away, her touch too much to bear so soon after orgasm, Shepard placed a last final kiss on the tip of his manhood and moved over him grinning like the Cheshire cat.

“So? Glad you relinquished your control Commander Alenko?"
