Start Again

Night of Passion

"Bite me." Tav says drunkenly.

"Wait, hold on." Astarion says, taken aback at the sudden proposition. He doesn't know how to respond. She has always let him drink her blood, but she would always put it into a cup. He only drank straight from her the first time, when he ended up waking her.

Tav rolls her head back, exposing her neck. "I want you to drink from me. I want to feel you bite me." She says, almost desperately.

Astarion worries about losing control, like he almost did the first time he drank from her. In this situation, neither of them have enough mental capacity to fully think through the risk and are both drawn to the allure of the possibilities.

Seeing his hesitation, Tav leans in and kisses him again. She wants to let him know that she trusts him fully and that she is not worried about him biting her. She truly wants him to, she isn't just saying this.

They become distracted from the previous topic, fully focusing on the kiss. The kiss deepens, and their tongues become intertwined. Astarion moves his hand to feel the curves of her waist, while Tav's hands find their place within his hair. Soon they are broken from their moment by a cough from the entrance to the hallway that they never left.

Tav and Astarion break apart, panicked, and turn to look at the source of their disruption. Karlach and Wyll were standing there sheepishly, but Karlach had a giant smile across her face.

Karlach spoke first to break the silence. "I saw Tav run off, and you follow. It has been a while so I came to check and see if you both were doing alright... but it seems like you both are just fine considering you couldn't even make it to the room."

"Not what I expected, but glad you are both alright?" Wyll adds confused with the scene.

"Um... sorry! Don't mean to bother you both!" Tav says while grabbing Astarion and shuffling them both into her room, which they were sitting right in front of. "Well-uh... We will just..." Tav continues, stuttering while pointing in her room. She then shuts the door on them, ending the awkward encounter.

Despite the interuption, Tav still feels riled up and Astarion looks the same. She grabs him and rushes back into kissing him, as if making up for the time they lost due to the distraction. He complies, pulling her onto the bed.

A sense of reality hits Tav, as she stops and looks into his eyes. "Are you okay? We don't have to go any further if you do not want to?"

Astarion's eyes soften at Tav's consideration. "I promise, darling, there is nothing I want more." He says before initiating the next kiss. There is no shortage of passion between them as they begin to intertwine their bodies.

Tav's body starts to feel hot and her desires begin to surface again. She wants to be connected to him, in a much deeper way. She rolls her head back again to expose her neck. "I trust you to bite me. I want to give this to you." She says.

In his excited state, Astarion does not need much more convincing. He begins kissing down Tav's neck, feeling her pulse underneath his lips. One hand is placed gently underneath her head, while the other hand is exploring her body. She moves his exploring hand underneath her clothes, up towards her breasts.

Before biting down, Astarion pulls the hem of her shirt above her head, exposing her top. She quickly does the same to him, desiring the feeling of his skin pressing against hers. Astarion takes his place back on her neck, finding where her pulse is the strongest. At the same time, Tav places him hand back on her chest. He massages her breast while taking one slow lick across her neck, sending shivers through her body. He could feel her tremble beneath him, and he knew that it was time.
