Drawing her nails down Del’s back, Raelin gloried at the hiss that escaped from her lips. Trailing her mouth down the blonde’s neck, she moved aside golden hair to suckle at a throbbing pulse point whose beat was calling out her name. This woman’s body sang to her; she could hear the rush of her blood, the air fighting its way in and out of her lungs...every part of Delaney’s body knew Raelin’s name and called to her so that she could bring everything together for a glorious moment in time.
Del couldn’t remember ever needing someone’s touch so bad in her life. No longer able to support herself, she fell back to the bed, pulling Raelin with her, delighting in the now familiar feel of Raelin’s weight on top of her. Her hands started a journey up toned thighs, trailing across Raelin’s hips and under the shirt the witch was wearing, running her fingertips along Raelin’s spine. She’d been determined not to let Raelin touch her again until she could return the favor, but Raelin’s hands were insistent and she was powerless to stop them. If she thought about it, and it took a lot of effort to do so between Raelin’s lips and hands, she needed this connection, needed to feel the solidity of Raelin’s body, and sensing the crushing press of her emotions; she knew Raelin needed the same.
Reaching down, Raelin tore off her shirt, leaving herself wearing a tiny scrap of silk that was riding dangerously low on her hips. Staring down at the blonde, she watched as green eyes stared at her breasts and Del licked her lips. Bringing up her hands, she cupped her breasts, offering them to the detective. “Do you want these?” She ran her thumbs over her already hard nipples.
Del whimpered as she watched Raelin touch herself, barely maintaining enough brain function to interpret the words falling out of the witch’s mouth. “Yes, I wouldn’t tease so much though. You may regret it,” Del growled.
Leaning down, Raelin groaned as their chests touched, and she wrapped her arms about the blonde and rolled, switching their positions so that the blonde was straddling her. “You waited too long...now I’m gonna have my way with you...just remember...I offered.” The brunette quickly scooted down so that her head was beneath the blonde and she pulled the woman down atop her tongue and began to suckle. Holding onto the blonde’s thighs, Raelin moaned at how sweet she tasted, it was like honey and just as addicting. Bringing one hand around, she flicked her thumb against Del’s clit, making her tremble and keen.
Any thought that Del had about trying to flip them over again was destroyed the second she felt Raelin’s tongue against her center. She arched into the touch, crying out when she felt a thumb pressing just where she needed it. Falling forward, she clutched the headboard, trying not to press down, desperate for more contact. “Please Raelin,” she managed weakly before any ability to form words left her.
Pulling her mouth away, Raelin kept flicking the tiny bud with her thumb. “Please what Delaney? What do you want?” The witch loved how the blonde looked above her, the moonlight turning golden hair almost silver, her mouth open panting, and her eyes tightly shut.
Del opened her eyes and stared at the dark, nearly black gaze of her lover. “Stop teasing me,” she begged, trying to press closer.
Staring right back at her lover, Raelin concentrated on the love that she had for this woman and slowly filled her with three fingers. Withdrawing them, she licked them clean, before sliding them back in only to withdraw them once more, cleaning them. She could feel the frustration building and she took that emotion as she pulled Del down so that she could delve her tongue in as deeply as she could. She never took her eyes off the blonde’s as she did this.
Del nearly came apart as Raelin entered her the first time, and whined in displeasure when she felt her retreat. The second time she nearly cried, her entire body shaking with need. She breathed out Raelin’s name when the witch pulled her hips down once more, her thighs clenching around her head. She tried her damned hardest to keep her eyes open. The sight of Raelin watching Del as she made love to her was probably the most erotic thing the detective had ever seen and she nearly came apart then and there. God, she was so close, and she let one hand leave the headboard to clutch at dark curls, trying to get the contact and pressure she needed.
Reaching up with one hand, Raelin tweaked Del’s clit and closed her eyes briefly; pulling at the love she felt for this woman and breathed it into her core, humming as she did so. When she opened her eyes, they were a golden warm brown, shining up at her lover as she slid three fingers back in and began to suck hard on Del’s clit at each counterthrust.
Del turned her head, biting into her arm to muffle her cries, knowing they’d be heard downstairs otherwise. She felt the restless energy beginning to coil deep in her stomach and it was all she could do not to grind into Raelin’s relentless mouth. Feeling Raelin humming, sent vibrations through her body, and when she felt herself filled with a talented hand, her body locked. A few short thrusts later sent Del crashing over the edge, into the most intense release she’d ever known. The force of it sent shudders through her and she bit down harder moaning into her flesh when she tasted the coppery tang of blood on her tongue. She knew she was probably pulling painfully on Raelin’s hair at this point, but her body had locked and she couldn’t have let go if she’d tried.
The hand in her hair tightened, letting the witch know she was doing something right and she smiled against her lovers slick folds. Feeling the blonde topple over the edge, filled her with a surge of love that made her toes curl so she pulled it up, and breathed it back into the blonde as she now thrust in four fingers.
Del hadn’t even had the chance to relax when she felt Raelin’s renewed efforts, this time with an extra digit and it sent her reeling all over again. She didn’t even bother to hold back her cry; Raelin’s name was a gasping mantra as she rode out the pleasure and the surge of pure love that stormed across every nerve in her body. She tried to look down into Raelin’s eyes, but saw nothing but stars and she collapsed with barely enough mind to fall to the side to avoid crushing her lover.
Withdrawing from her trembling lover, Raelin gathered her into her embrace, placing gentle kisses over her face and hair. “I’ve got ya Darlin’.” She could feel the tremors still running rampant through the blonde’s body as she ran her hands along her back. Reaching over, she drew the sheets over them, not wanting Del to catch a chill. “Sleep my love, sleep.”
Del reached up to weakly caress Raelin’s chest. “But your turn,” she mumbled, proud that she’d managed to string half a sentence together.
“Will come in due time. Not tonight.” Raelin kissed the top of the head that was tucked under her chin. “Sleep now, for tomorrow you get to catch some bad guys.”
Comforted by the familiar smell of her witch and the loving arms around her, Del started to nod off, completely sated. Just before she drifted off, she managed to place a sloppy kiss on Raelin’s collarbone. “Love you,” she sighed sleepily finally giving in to the exhaustion.

Lying in the dark, holding onto the woman that she loved, Raelin thought back over the day and was startled at how close she had come to losing this. Loving Delaney had replenished some of her power, but it was going to take a full day of doing absolutely no magic to get her fully restored.
Making sure that Delaney was asleep, Raelin carefully slid from underneath and found the shirt that she had tossed away earlier. Pulling it on, she slid on a pair of jeans and tugged on some sneakers. Quietly making her way downstairs, she kept an ear out for anyone stirring as she opened the back door and slipped outside.
Rori padded up and fell into step with his human without a word. After a few minutes of silence, they came to a glen surrounded by a circle of trees, which was completely lit up by the moonlight. Quickly shedding her clothes, she stepped onto the center of the glen, held out her hands, and upturned her face to the moon, offering prayers.
“Thank You Great Goddess for this day for the blessings and lessons that came my way. May my sleep be peaceful in dreams and rest and tomorrow may I do my best. Oh
Great Goddess, Mother of Mercy and Healing. Send the energy of Hygeia to nourish from Her Sacred Bowl. Send the energy of Brigid to heal with the waters of Her Sacred Well. Send the energy of Demeter to restore life to withering cells. Send the energy of Quan Yin to bless the healing with peace. Send your healing wisdom to the body to restore its sacred balance. Thank You Great Goddess. Mother of All Life. Deep in my bone, the Goddess is alive. Deep in my cells and blood, the Life Force is strong. Deep in my heart and spirit, I believe I will heal. I feel the Goddess at my core, filling me with fait and health. Abundant Life Forces of the Universe flow in me, and banish all disease. My blood, my bones, my cells and my body are healing now, are healing now. The Goddess force is in me and healing me now.”
Lowering her head, Raelin thanked her Goddess and stood silently.
“You’ve got a bad habit of wandering off don’t you?” Del asked quietly from the edge of the glen. She’d woken when she heard the door closing downstairs and sensed it was Raelin. The detective had waited an hour before she’d come looking, dressed only in her now favorite button up and tiny shorts. “I’m not stalking you or anything, but I got worried when you didn’t come back,” she explained, taking in the site of a naked Raelin, bronze sun-kissed skin glowing in the moonlight.
Turning her head, the witch regarded her lover standing just outside of the circle of trees, like she knew that crossing the invisible line would disrupt whatever Raelin was doing. It was then that the witch heard a loud thrumming and felt the air change, getting heavier. Without a word, she walked over and stood in front of the blonde. “Will you make love to me right here, right now?” she quietly asked.
The buzzing in the back of Del’s mind made itself known under Raelin’s dark gaze, and she felt the tension sitting heavily around them. Del smiled and reached up to cup a soft cheek. “I will as long as you think it’s okay. I don’t want to disturb or anger a sacred place. I’m also not sure I want Rori watching,” she smiled, rubbing her thumb across Raelin’s lips.
“Rori...go home please,” Raelin requested, reaching down to unbutton Del’s shirt.
Del waited until Rori had left the clearing before she kissed Rae softly. “Is this going to get you in trouble with anyone upstairs?” she asked, referencing the glen. She sighed softly when Raelin’s fingers brushed her skin as she worked the buttons of her shirt, her own hands sliding across the warm skin of Raelin’s waist and back.
“No, love is always welcomed here,” Raelin whispered as she finished unbuttoning the shirt and slowly slid it from Delaney’s shoulders. Picking up her own shirt, she took the blonde by the hand and led her to the middle of the glen. Releasing Del’s hand, she spread out the shirts on the soft grass before she turned to her lover. “I am giving myself to you, and while my heart has been yours since the beginning, my body will be yours tonight.”
Del locked her deep green gaze with the dark gaze of Raelin, taking both of her hands and pressing the knuckles against her lips, kissing them softly. “It is a gift I will treasure for the rest of my life. I promise,” she whispered, pressing Raelin’s hands to her chest so she could feel the pounding of her heart.
“I know. I can feel everything that you feel right now. This place means a lot to me so I am glad that you found me here. I want this place to mean something to the both of us from now on,” Raelin whispered.
Choosing to show Raelin how she felt through actions, she stepped forward to kiss her, pouring all the love she could possibly muster into the gentle touch. She ran her fingers around Raelin’s waist, running them up a graceful spine to press against strong shoulder, holding her close. “You’ll tell me if you want me to stop?”
Murmuring against Del’s lips, Raelin wrapped her arms around the shorter woman’s waist, pulling her against her, “I don’t want to stop ever again.”
“Then you’ll be glad to know that I left my cell phone at the house,” Del chuckled, kissing along Raelin’s jaw. She trailed her lips down Raelin’s neck, pausing to pay special attention to where she could feel Raelin’s pulse pounding beneath the smooth skin. Her fingers once again started to roam, this time brushing the sides of her breasts and cupping them gently. “Lay down for me?”
Slowly Raelin lowered herself to the ground, lying atop the shirts. Her heart was beating wildly, but she was not afraid. She was excited on finally loving Delaney fully and she held up her hand, silently asking the woman to join her.
Del just grinned roguishly and hooked her thumbs into the waistband of her shorts. Never taking her eyes off Raelin, she slowly lowered them until she could step out and toss them aside. Finally, taking Raelin’s hand, she stretched out along her side, leaning over the witch to kiss her softly. She kept her weight on one elbow, allowing her free hand to move behind Raelin’s neck, holding her right where she wanted her.
Trembling slightly, Raelin fisted her hands in the grass on either side of the shirt, and moistened her bottom lip with the tip of her tongue. “What am I supposed to do?” she whispered.
Del ghosted light teasing kisses across Raelin’s collarbone, nipping occasionally before soothing the sting with her tongue. “There is no right or wrong way to do this Darlin’. All you need to do is feel. Feel how your body reacts when I touch you, how your skin tingles when I kiss you. Feel what it’s like when you love so completely nothing else in the world exists, but you and me and this one moment forever. So you just lay back and let me love you.”
Taking a deep breath, Raelin swallowed and nodded her head. Ever since she felt Delaney’s eyes caress her body that first day, she had been waiting for this moment. She reached up to trace a finger against Del’s lips. “Can you kiss me again?”
Del lifted her head and pressed a loving kiss against her witch, only deepening it in slow increments. Her fingers began a slow meandering trail across perfect breasts, her thumbs brushing across erect nipples.
Moaning against Del’s lips, Raelin arched, pressing her breasts more fully against the blonde’s hand.
Del finally pulled away from their kiss, taking in a deep lungful of air. She let her gaze travel the length of Raelin’s body, her perfect curves and bronzed skin flushed pink from need. She shifted her body fitting perfectly between toned thighs and trailed hot kisses over Raelin’s midriff. “You’re beautiful, you take my breath away.”
For the second time that night, Raelin moaned at how perfectly Delaney fit between her legs. Unconsciously she rolled her hips, spreading her essence against the blonde’s stomach.
Del hissed in a breath as she felt Raelin’s need, damp against her stomach. She trailed her kisses upwards, trailing her tongue over the curve of a breast to claim its peak teasing it as one hand worked its twin. She pressed down, enjoying the quivering mess she was quickly reducing her lover to. She teased a little longer before switching sides, moaning into the new flesh under her lips and delighting when a free hand found a sensitive spot just above her belly button. Taking her time, she was enjoying the feeling of being able to explore and learn everything about this amazing woman underneath her.
Raelin began to make tiny noises that she didn’t recognize in her need for Del to touch her. Without thinking, she reached out to drag her nails down the blonde’s back.
Del groaned as she felt Raelin’s nails raking down her back. Rising to her hands, she captured Raelin’s mouth in a demanding kiss, shifting her weight to her hips, pressing down hard.
Reaching down, Raelin pulled the blonde against her, groaning at the contact. Her nerves were on overload and she was finding it hard to wait for the blonde. She wanted to explore everything loving meant.
Feeling Raelin’s need, the detective broke away and stared down at the brunette as her hand trailed slowly between her breasts and over a firm tummy. She paused as they tangled in damp curls, silently asking permission to explore further with a look.
“Please Del...don’t make me wait any longer...let me love you fully,” Raelin begged Delaney, placing her hand on top of Del’s.
> “I love you Raelin, more than words can express,” she whispered, her fingers finally ghosting over pliant flesh. She explored gently, thrilling in every twitch of insistent hips and the feel of Raelin’s stomach, clenching in need. Finally taking mercy on her girl, she drew two fingers over Raelin’s clit, watching the reactions playing over her face.
Her eyes went wide at the touch and she gasped, “De...laney...please...oh Goddess.”
Delaney smiled and shifted, trailing a line of kisses over Raelin’s stomach to nuzzle dark curls. She took a deep breath, moaning at the sweet smell that was Raelin, taking it in for a second before she took a slow swipe across a swollen clit with her tongue. Del wasn’t sure she’d ever find anything to compare to the sweet taste of Raelin’s need. It was deep and all-encompassing and like most things with her witch, reminded her of the earth and sunshine. She wanted to taste it forever.
“Ahh...” Raelin shouted at the first swipe, her hand going to keep Del’s head right where it was. She knew how she felt while doing the same to the blonde, but it was nothing compared to what she was feeling right at that moment.
She took her time, letting Raelin build slowly towards her climax, wanting her first time to be perfect. Sensing the moment was right, she reached up with one hand, tangling her fingers with Raelin’s as her other hand teased her entrance. She pulled her mouth away to catch her eye; she squeezed Raelin’s fingers as she slid in one finger to the second knuckle. “Okay?” she asked.
“Yes,” the witch breathed. She knew that there would be some pain, but there was no way in her mind that it would overshadow everything that she was now feeling.
