Walking into the Lodge, hand in hand, Killian and Caitlin stopped to gaze in surprise upon all the Kindred Caitlin met on the Clipper plus several more. A table in the center of the room held gifts of welcoming. There were savory foods steaming from large crocks and filling the hall with delicious odors. A fire was blazing in a large fireplace in a lounge area where many Kindred gathered in the evenings to tell stories or to read. Caitlin felt at home immediately.

Klancy moved out from the center of the crowd, with her usual cavalier style and impeccable grace. She came to stand before the couple. She could see in an instant that Caitlin’s time in the world of the Fae had healed the warrior completely. Klancy lowered her gaze from Caitlin to Killian and threw her arms around them both in a most unwarrior-like display of affection. “Welcome home! Come in and be with your Kindred.” She stood straight and swept an arm out to the room. The others gathered around the couple, offering welcoming words and hand shakes.

Aria, who was less welcoming toward Caitlin, lavished attention and gifts on Killian. She leaned down, putting her beautiful mouth to Killian’s ear and whispered, “I have had your room cleaned and scented with the most exotic oils my little peapod. And when this celebration is over, there will be a hot bath ready for you and your warrior.”

Killian was delighted, a little surprised and extremely grateful. She wanted nothing more than to get up to her room with Caitlin. They hadn’t been alone for any measurable time since the rescue. “Oh yes! Thank you Aria.” She wrapped her arms around her friend and held on. She loved how Aria always squeezed back. “Nobody cares about me like you do.”

“Just remember my Killy, I have my eye on Caitlin. She is fine now but… she will never get the chance to hurt you again. I won’t let it happen.” Aria gave the younger woman an extra strong squeeze and stood back, still smiling. Any sign of distress was well hidden by the skilled assassin. Killian knew it was out of respect for her that Aria didn’t just turn a stiff back on Caitlin altogether.

Killian allowed her gaze to sweep the room. Nessa would not be there she knew. But still she missed the presence of the warrior who saved her in so many ways this past year. She dearly loved Nessa and understood the pain the Celt was now enduring. There was too much between them to be lost for any reason. At least Jan was with the warrior in the forest they both loved. It mattered to Killian that Nessa was not alone through this. She lifted her eyes and met Caitlin’s beautiful smile.

Suddenly, it seemed that all the Kindred drifted away to tables and chairs and corners one by one as if there was a common sense about timing. They were leaving the couple to themselves now. Caitlin stepped close to Killian and drew her near. “Where is our room love?” she said softly.

Killian felt a leaping inside at Caitlin’s wonderful assumption that the room she had for all the time she had lived at the Lodge, was now “ours.” She lifted her chin and glanced at the stairway. Caitlin understood and bending down, the warrior picked the love of her life up in her arms and carried her up the stairs toward the bliss that had been missing for both of them far too long.

~~~~~~~~

Killian’s heart was thudding hard in her chest. Caitlin, this was Caitlin. Not a dream, but her one and only flesh and blood mate. They were inside their bed chambers now. Caitlin lowered Killian down on her feet then pulled her in close, wrapping strong arms around that small waist. They looked at each other only for a moment before their mouths were pressed together in a sweet, hot kiss. Their tongues danced in a gentle back and forth motion. Their love mingled with the old passion as their bodies touched and rubbed into each other.

Suddenly Caitlin broke the kiss and stood back. She wanted to feel every throbbing second of this. She wanted to feast on her lover. She looked around the room, stepped to a large cushy chair, and sat.

Killian watched Caitlin move in that slinky way she was so familiar with. She frowned with curiosity. “What are you doing? Is that it?”

“No my love, that is not it.” Caitlin’s voice was like honey, sweet and thick. “I want you to undress for me. I want to see every bit of you, a little at a time.”

Killian was caught in the grasp of cerulean blue eyes. She would obey Caitlin now as she had always obeyed her. Her boots were first. She was conscious of Caitlin’s burning gaze as she unfastened her shirt and pulled it slowly over each shoulder and down her arms to drop on the floor at her feet. She knew her breasts were firm and round. She loved how it felt to have her lover squeeze them. Knowing that Caitlin was picturing that very thing caused her sex to clench. She saw how Caitlin watched her and she felt a power of her own. The breeches were next. Killian was slow about pulling them down and off.

Caitlin saw what she wanted to see and so much more. This Killian was the same and yet different somehow. She changed from an adorable kid into a mature and gorgeous woman. Caitlin’s breath caught in her throat at the sight of the exquisite body before her. Killian was hers. With a voice she tried to steady she asked, “What do you need my Killian? Hmm?”

The younger woman thought she might melt from the inside out, at the question. She needed what she always needed from her warrior. “I need to belong to you Caitlin. I need you to show me your strength and your love… I need to feel safe… “

“Do you need discipline?”

Killian felt hot cum spreading down her inner thighs. “Yes.”

Caitlin pulled her leather belt from her breeches where she sat. Her own heart pounded so hard she could almost hear it. “Come here.”

Killian moved slowly to stand in front of the sitting warrior. She saw love in those magnificent eyes. She felt that safety she needed to feel, even as Caitlin pulled her down to lay face down across her muscled thighs. It felt so incredible to know that the one she loved with all her heart would have her like this. She wanted to feel Caitlin’s belt and she knew Caitlin wanted to watch her round bottom turn bright red at her hand. She waited.

Caitlin loved the weight of her mate. She looked down lovingly at the straight, strong back. She looked at the round swells that would soon be shaking and quivering with each sting of the leather. Caitlin reached over her sweet Killian’s body and grasped her free arm. She wanted to be sure she had a good strong hold. She began. She whipped Killian through kicking and crying without a break. She whipped her until her naked bottom was swollen with welts. She whipped her lover until her own breeches were wet in the crotch from the beautiful sight and sounds.

That night, after Killian obediently got in the hot bath with Caitlin in spite of the burning to her well whipped bottom, they made love rough and tender. Killian felt the completeness of her surrender. She was safe at last in the arms of her warrior, Caitlin.
