"Lydia! I'm fine!" Marielle exclaimed as Lydia hugged and covered her face in kisses. "I've only been gone a few days."
She was thankful Lydia wasn't crying. She was spending the entire time laughing, and it wasn't like Marielle was trying to force her off, laughing away herself. She'd barely stepped foot in the door before Lydia crashed into her.
"Have you been to see Delphine?"
"I wanted to come home first so you could see I was okay."
Lydia grabbed her hand and led her outside. "I let Aela know what you were up to. She's been worried sick too."
"Lydia…"
"Marielle, we know how good you are with a bow. We know you're fucking brave too. But… it's the Thalmor. They're bastards. And you were by yourself. Please, we know what fate has in store for you. Let us just worry about you."
Marielle gave it a few seconds thought before she stopped, turned Lydia towards her, and kissed her hard. Lydia was surprised for a second before responding, only breaking apart when there were one or two comments from nearby. Reaching up to stroke her cheek, gazing into her eyes, she smiled. "Thank you for worrying."
Aela didn't crash into her like Lydia when they both walked into Jorrvaskr, but the kiss was intense enough it made her whimper… and a little wet. It didn't help Lydia pressed into her from behind, and she could feel both of them poking her under their skirts.
"Anyone would think you two have a one track mind when it comes to me," she whispered, feeling Lydia kissing her neck.
"We both love fucking you, Marielle," Aela whispered before kissing her again.
Glancing to see they were alone, Marielle smiled as she slid a hand under Aela's skirt, finding her cock sticking out of her panties, giving it a gentle squeeze, which made Aela growl into her mouth. Feeling Lydia gently bite her neck made her giggle and break the kiss with Aela for a moment. "Can you stay?" Aela asked.
"I really should go straight to Riverwood. I have information Delphine needs to see immediately."
"We'll come with you then."
Aela headed downstairs to grab her bow and quiver of arrows, stopping at Breezehome so Lydia could grab her sword and shield, and the three headed out of the gates and towards Riverwood. As always, it wasn't a long walk. The weather was fantastic, Marielle hearing one or two comments about just stopping, stripping off, and the three of them fucking in sunshine. It would have been a wonderful idea any other time.
Delphine was pleased to see her, while amused to see Aela and Lydia alongside her, the four of them gathering in her secret room. Marielle was convinced Orgnar knew the entire truth about Delphine and was probably her lookout in case things went pear-shaped. And she was amused when Delphine seemed overjoyed at the news that Esbern was alive, explaining who he was and why he would be of great assistance in regards to the dragon issue.
"We'll need to get you to Riften as soon as we can, Dragonborn."
"I made a friend at the soiree. Maven Black-Briar."
"I know that name," Delphine said, "Not everything I hear is pleasant, and I have my own contacts, but if you think she can help." Then she obviously paused and gave it some thought. "Let me guess…"
"Yes," Marielle replied, knowing a smirk was on her face.
Delphine laughed, while Aela and Lydia needed a couple more seconds to figure it out. "You don't waste time sometimes, Marielle," Lydia added with a giggle.
"Got properly fucked in Morthal on the way back."
"Who?" Aela wondered.
"Jonna. The innkeeper."
"Fuck off!" Aela exclaimed, "I thought she only fucked men?"
"I shouldn't really say, but it's all a ruse so she isn't constantly harassed. But her cock, Aela. By Dibella, it was just exquisite. Reminded me of Saadia in many ways."
"So I guess you might be spending some time in Riften then?" Delphine asked.
"I've never been there but I'm sure I'll figure it all out."
"All I ask is that you keep in touch. Couriers constantly run between major cities, towns and villages. While you're busy there, I can certainly keep myself busy with other things."
"When are you thinking of heading off?" Aela wondered.
"No idea, but I guess I can't waste too much time. But while it feels urgent, have there been many dragon sightings?"
"All we can do is pray to the Nine that, while there might be sightings, they don't just start an all-out attack on our cities. If that happens, then it will fall on your shoulders, Dragonborn," Delphine stated, somewhat solemnly.
"No pressure then."
"So we all going to fuck or what?" Lydia asked, "I mean, it's obvious, right?"
Marielle laughed as she quickly found herself surrounded by her three lovers. "You know, I'd love to have a couple more of us here, really gangbang her," Aela said, "Mouth, pussy, arse, two hands, and just more futanari stroking themselves, ready to slide inside her."
"Sounds like you have plans, Aela," Delphine murmured.
It didn't take long for clothing on all of them to be removed. To Marielle's surprise, she dropped to her knees and happily took Aela's cock in her mouth, while Lydia dropped to her knees to suck Delphine's cock. Marielle glanced her way. "I figured you could suck Aela now, and it's not right Delphine is ignored."
"Well, aren't you just sweet," Delphine murmured, definitely appreciating what Lydia was doing.
As for Marielle, she adored Aela's thick cock, but was always pleased she could take her entire length, her nose bumping into her groin. Aela stroked her hair as she was quickly bobbing her head up and down, causing her lover to moan and gasp, hands running up the back of those fabulous legs she had, giving her tight arse a squeeze which provoked a chuckle.
What she did manage to do while blowing Aela was reach across and stroke Lydia's cock at the same time. Delphine noticed this and shuffled across, closer to Aela, so Marielle didn't have to reach as much. Marielle looked up to see Delphine and Aela share quite the kiss, hearing Lydia moan as Marielle was already stroking her nice and fast, moving her fingers to the tip of her cock and feeling pre-cum already dripping out.
Marielle leaned over for a minute and gave Delphine a quick suck, stroking Lydia and Aela at the same time, before giving Lydia one hell of a kiss, returning her lips to Aela's cock, who started to thrust within a few seconds, the sign she was getting close.
"Cum in her mouth, Aela," Delphine whispered, "Give the Dragonborn what she wants."
Aela groaned loudly before unloading in her mouth, Marielle moaning herself. Just taking a load in the mouth turned her on completely, making audible gulping sounds with each large spurt of her sweet cum. That seemed to turn Delphine on enough that she groaned, hearing Lydia giggle as she took a mouthful at the same time, Lydia then turning towards her and the kiss swapped cum from both Aela and Delphine.
"Okay, that's pretty fucking hot," Aela murmured.
As soon as they broke the kiss, Marielle pushing Lydia back and immediately swallowed her cock. Now on her knees, arse in the air, Aela wasn't going to stand on ceremony, immediately getting behind her. Considering her pussy was already dripping wet, sliding her cock inside her was easy, and once she felt hands gripping her hips, she stopped sucking Lydia for long enough to look back and say, "Fuck me hard."
Aela did just that, but Marielle was getting used to a cock in her mouth, a cock in her pussy at the same time, so she could focus on blowing Lydia without too much distraction. Not to say Aela wasn't filling her nicely and she loved every second, but Lydia was rather turned on anyway, and knew she'd quickly give her a second mouthful. As for Delphine, she sat on Lydia's face and had her hidden pussy given some attention, mentioning that she rarely focused on it, but it was still nice to have it pleased from time to time.
Lydia did eventually cum in her mouth, and would have cried out had she not been eating out Delphine at the same time, but once she'd swallowed her load, she removed her mouth from her cock and could now focus on Aela entirely, glancing back to see her lover really pounding her, breasts swaying with each hard thrust.
"Fuck yes," Marielle moaned, "Fucking love your cock, Aela."
"Tightest pussy ever, Marielle," Aela murmured back, "I'll never tire of fucking you."
Aela leaned forward, really starting to drive her cock into her, Marielle managing to turn enough so they could kiss, a little awkwardly but worth it. She then felt finger in her hair, turning back to see Delphine offering her cock. She happily started blowing her though what Aela was doing to her proved rather distracting, and she could feel an orgasm starting to approach.
"Oh Dibella," she moaned, releasing Delphine's cock. She was making a conscious effort to cry out her name over anyone.
"I'm close too," Aela grunted, really pounding her cock into her, feeling her skin slap against her arse. Marielle swallowed Delphine's cock again, mostly just to have it in her mouth, to cover some of the moans she was releasing. It was too damned good.
Then Aela came, and she came hard, feeling each spurt of cum fill her before feeling her lover relax above her, soft lips kissing the back of her neck, hot breath in her ear. "Missed you the past few days," she whispered. Marielle just turned and gave her another kiss before focusing on Delphine again.
Aela pulled out, and with a slight re-position, she was able to straddle Lydia's lap and slide down her cock, hearing her chuckle as she could feel Aela's cum still inside her. "I'm going to be full of all your cum by the end of this," she retorted.
Sitting up, Delphine moved to one side, Aela to the other, so she could blow one and stroke off the other. She was a little surprised Aela wasn't interested in fucking her arse, or that Delphine wasn't considering it, but she didn't mind. Aela had already filled her, she was already loving Lydia being inside her once again, and she knew Delphine would want to fuck her again too. She had a feeling this might be a regular thing for the foreseeable future.
As Lydia had just cum, she could ride her for what felt like ages, Aela eventually getting onto her knees next to her, and Marielle couldn't help smile when her fingers found her clit. She would have enjoyed kissing her because of that, but she wanted to make Delphine cum again with her mouth. Aela certainly enjoyed kissing other places, particularly her small breasts, but feeling her lips around her nipples, giving them gentle licks and nibbles, it just made her even wetter.
Delphine was obviously enjoying everything as she soon informed her she was ready to cum. Marielle though she'd have some fun and pulled her mouth away, the suggestion clear as to what she wanted. Delphine moved around enough that she could stroke her cock as Marielle continued to ride Lydia, and when she felt that first blast of hot cum on her face, her own orgasm almost knocked her out, it was so good. What surprised her was when Delphine aimed her cock away at Aela, who happily leaned forward to take a couple of spurts on her face. Even Lydia was surprised by that, Aela leaning forward once Delphine was done to taste her cock for herself.
"Well, didn't expect that," Marielle whispered.
"I'll suck cock when the mood takes me. I suck Lydia all the time when we're together."
"I'd love to watch you two fuck sometime,"
"Oh, definitely. We'll fuck each other, then fuck you."
The thought must have been a turn on for Lydia, as she filled Marielle within a couple of minutes, Marielle just resting with her cock still inside her, Aela cuddling into her side, having helped clean her face, Delphine relaxing against the wall. "You young women will be the death of me," she stated with humour, "But I'm glad you found me."
"Want to fuck me?" Marielle wondered.
"Give me a couple of minutes then lie back the table."
Getting up off Lydia was amusing as she felt cum flow out of her, her legs feeling a little wobbly as she'd been well fucked and her orgasm had been intense. Lying back on the table, she was amused when both Aela and Lydia spread her legs nice and wide and gave her pussy a gentle lick, joking about the taste of their cum inside her. Delphine eventually stood up, Aela and Lydia taking an ankle each as Delphine slid her cock inside her.
Leaning forward, resting a hand either side of her, it was obvious it was going to be a hard, fast fuck. And she was right, Delphine pumping her from the first thrust. "I don't want to last too long, I just want to cum in you," she murmured.
She leaned up and gave her mature lover a soft kiss. "Delphine, I just love your cock inside me."
That made her smile, feeling her ankles released so resting her legs loosely around her hips, allowing Delphine to really keep pumping her cock. Aela and Lydia seemed happy to just sit and watch, stroking their thick cocks at the same time, Lydia stating they'd both cum a couple of times and were satisfied. Delphine kept her word by not lasting all that long, her cum joining Aela's and Lydia's inside her, leaning down once she was done to share an intense kiss.
After she pulled out, Marielle just lay on the table, giggling to herself. "Divines, that's the second time you three have fucked me together."
"And probably won't be the last," Aela stated with humour, "As I said, gangbang, Marielle. I bet you'd love it."
"Oh, no doubt. But that's for later."
The four eventually dressed and headed upstairs, Delphine offering to cook them dinner before they headed back to Whiterun. With a couple of tankards as well, the four chatted about things not involving the dragon crisis, Delphine sharing a couple of old war stories, while Marielle let them know about life back in High Rock, all three of them wondering why she'd left.
"Fortune and glory, and a sense of adventure." She took a sip of her tankard. "And now I'm the Dragonborn. Funny how life works out sometimes."
Delphine escorted the three of them to the door when leaving, sharing quite the kiss with all three of them before they headed out into town. As they walked past Riverwood Trader, she looked at the door and had a pang of regret, wondering if Camilla would have been interested in joining the four of them earlier. She would have loved the chance to be with her again. She filed her name away in her mind, as she was keen on Aela's idea. Her idea of being fucked by a whole group of futanari was appealing.
Walking into Breezehome, she was feeling a little worn out as the past few days had been action packed, and it was obvious Aela and Lydia were both still horny. Lydia didn't even have to ask, Marielle kissing her cheek and telling them to have some fun, promising to see them before she departed for Riften. Lydia seemed to realise this was something Marielle had to do alone, and wasn't pushing the point anymore, which she appreciated.
It was later that night when she wasn't tired and feeling a little bored. Not wanting to go The Bannered Mare, as much of the clientele would just be too tempting, she chose to head just across the road towards The Drunken Huntsman. She'd only ever been in it once and realised it lacked the atmosphere of the Mare. But she just wanted a quiet drink before going to sleep.
Heading inside, she recognised Ahlam, having spoken with her a couple of times after being told by Aela the little secret they had. She was a lovely women and, having met Nazeem, was left wondering why she was married to him. Sitting at the bar, she was sipping at a tankard when the stool next to her was taken by a Dunmer, Marielle glancing to see it was a woman.
"Well, how are you, cutie?" the Dunmer asked.
Marielle couldn't help laugh to herself. She received compliments all the time. It made her feel good. "I'm very well. How are you?"
"Well, let's just say my night has suddenly brightened up."
"Why is that?"
"Well, don't get cute little women like you in here very often."
"Stendarr's Mercy, Jenassa, the young woman just wants a quiet drink and doesn't need you trying to get into her pants," Elrindir stated with a chuckle.
"It's okay. I like the company," Marielle stated, making an obvious glance up Jenassa's exposed legs, her short skirt, the exposed skin over her abdomen, her rather generous bust before meeting her eyes. "I'm Marielle."
"As I've already been introduced, but I'm Jenassa. I haven't seen you in here before."
"I've never been in. I wanted somewhere a little quieter."
"Want another drink and a chat somewhere private?"
Marielle smiled. "Sure."
Jenassa bought them another tankard before Marielle followed her into an alcove, that provided privacy. Taking a seat, Jenassa crossed her legs, Marielle running her eyes up them again, while the cleavage on display was mouth-watering. Jenassa seemed to realise she had a cracking body and enjoyed showing it off.
"So you're the Dragonborn?" she asked.
"Yeah. Another reason I'm having a quiet one as I'm off to Riften tomorrow."
"And you're not spending that with a lover?"
"I spent most of the afternoon being fucked by three of them."
That made Jenassa chuckle. "My, that is an exciting thought, Marielle. But you said you were fucked by them. I assume they are futanari?"
"Of course. I love a long, thick cock on a woman."
Jenassa lifted her skirt to show the bulge in her panties. "Maybe you'd like to see my cock?" Marielle smiled and nodded eagerly, Jenassa lowering her panties to reveal a beautiful, thick cock, Marielle's mouth immediately watering as Jenassa placed her panties on the table, relaxing back, stroking her cock. Marielle took a sip of her tankard before getting up off her chair and sitting on her knees between her legs. "Thought you might like to suck my cock once I had it out. I had a feeling…"
She ran her tongue up her shaft, earning a hiss of approval from the Dunmer. "I love a beautiful thick cock like yours, Jenassa."
Jenassa leaned down and gave her a gentle kiss. "I want you to suck me until I cum. Would you like that?"
Marielle smiled. "Good thing I love swallowing."
"Oh, you are just a delight, Marielle."
Marielle teased her first, running her tongue up and down her shaft, giving her balls some attention, which she definitely seemed to appreciate, before finally lifted her head enough to swallow her length. It was lovely and thick, and if she took a guess, between eight and nine inches, a slight reminder of Aela. Jenassa moaned softly as Marielle started slowly, making sure she teased her new Dunmer lover. Just the taste of her cock was getting her nice and wet.
"Jenassa, have you already got her sucking your cock in there?"
"Of course, Elrindir!"
"Stendarr's Mercy," she heard him mutter, "Fine. It's late anyway so I'm going to lock the doors. If you want to fuck her, the spare room is available."
"Thanks, Elrindir. I owe you one."
"More than one now."
Marielle glanced up with her eyes, Jenassa stroking her cheek and smiling. "I'm sure you've already realised I love to fuck."
"So do I," Marielle stated before resuming her blowjob.
"Would you like to stay tonight? I'd love to fuck you for a few hours."
"You know, I was feeling a little tender earlier, but I'm suddenly feeling rather okay." She kissed up her body before their mouths came together, feeling her tongue slide into her mouth. "The thought of your thick cock sliding into my wet pussy? I'm hoping I'll feel rather tender later or tomorrow morning."
"Oh, you are just precious, Marielle. But I think you need to swallow first before I think about sliding inside that pussy of yours."
Marielle lowered her mouth and was now determined to make her cum quickly. Jenassa loved it, of course, and was soon bucking her hips, Marielle glancing up to see her undo her tight leather jacket, exposing a pair of absolutely perfect breasts, her nipples rock hard, Jenassa grabbing both and giving them a good squeeze. "Keep going, beautiful. I'm getting close."
Jenassa wasn't lying. Five minutes later, she groaned loudly as Marielle was ready for that first shot of her hot cum, eagerly swallowing down each spurt as it arrived in her mouth, making sure her cock was completely empty before finally removing her mouth, kissing up her firm stomach, which in itself was a turn on, before taking on her breasts in her mouth, wrapping her hand around her shaft to keep her nice and hard, before leaning up to kiss her.
Jenassa made her squeal by picking her up in her arms, a sign of strength she didn't expect, carried upstairs to the spare room, hearing her kick the door shut before she was placed on the ground, where she then surprised her by slowly taking off her clothes. Jenassa stood a good six inches taller than her, a Dunmer goddess. Her panties were soaked by the time Jenassa pulled them off. "Someone's excited," Jenassa sang.
"I want your cock inside me," Marielle almost blurted out.
"And here I was, thinking I'd love to eat your pussy first."
"Later. I want you to fuck me."
Jenassa simply smiled before leaning down to kiss her, leading her back to the bed at the same time. She then cried out as Jenassa spun her around so she was on her knees, immediately lowering her head to the bed, making sure her arse was nicely raised, smiling as Jenassa gave her arse a good slap. "That is a fantastic arse, Marielle. I'd love to fuck it later."
"Whatever you want, Jenassa."
She moaned when Jenassa slid her cock inside her. Nice and thick, touching all the right places inside her. Feeling a hand in the middle of her upper back, she knew she was about to get properly fucked straight away. "Fuck yes," she moaned, "Just own me, Jenassa." She surprised herself by that, but she was feeling incredibly turned on. She'd been fucked by Dunmer before, and a Dunmer futanari was just pure sex.
Jenassa gave her a few hard thrusts, complimenting her on how tight her pussy was, before she got comfortable, hand still in the middle of her back, that other giving her arse the occasional slap, as her cock just pounded her. Marielle was able to move her hand to fondle her clit at the same time. She came hard within a couple of minutes, Jenassa not relenting for a second, and Marielle didn't want her to stop either.
Her new Dunmer lover was a machine, just thrusting in and out, quickening ever so slowly with each passing minute. Marielle knew she lay there with her eyes half-lidded, a smile on her face, just enjoying the feeling. Feeling her adjust against, a hand on each shoulder, glancing to see Jenassa practically couching her, she shuffling enough to expose herself even more for her. "You are just beautiful," Jenassa murmured, not relenting for a second.
Marielle didn't say anything. No real point. She just made plenty of noise otherwise, her moans probably heard across half of Skyrim. Jenassa definitely had staying power, as she must have fucked her for half an hour before she finally came, and only then did she finally come to a stop, resting on top of her, feeling soft lips on her cheek. "I could just cuddle you up and keep you for myself," she breathed into her ear.
Feeling her pull out, Marielle immediately spun around and swallowed her cock, Jenassa chuckling, stroking her hair, Marielle looking up, hoping she was pleasing her. She only had around five minutes before Jenassa gently pushed her back before lying down, Marielle straddling her lap and wasting no time sliding down her cock. Leaning down, she immediately took a nipple in her mouth again as she felt hands slide her back to her arse, grabbing it firmly by each cheek before Jenassa started to pump hard into her once again.
"Oh fuck me. Just keep fucking me," Marielle moaned before continuing her attention on her breasts.
"Love what you're doing to my nipples. Too often they are ignored."
"Your tits are fantastic, Jenassa."
Being fucked as hard as she was again, she eventually just sat up and enjoyed the feeling of her cock pumping into her, one hand fondling her clit, the other feeling up her own breasts, though Jenassa was able to sit up and return the favour. With her cock pumping into her, fondling her clit, and the attention on her breasts, Marielle enjoyed another tremendous orgasm, crying out so loud, all of Skyrim probably heard her.
"That's it, beautiful. Let it all out."
Marielle just leaned down and kissed her hard, and kept kissing her as Jenassa upped the tempo further, Marielle moaning into her mouth constantly, wanting to feel her cum inside her once again.
When she did, Jenassa held her close to her body, feeling her cock throb inside her with each spurt of cum, and when she stilled, Marielle knew that was likely the end of the night. Lifting her head, Jenassa lay there quietly with a broad grin on her face, a glazed look in her eyes, before she finally blinked and met hers. "By Azura, beautiful, that was fantastic."
"You're telling me!"
Jenassa remained inside of her until her pussy started to complain. As she got up, she sat back and inspected herself, Jenassa chuckling as her pussy was rather red. "You've been properly fucked today, Marielle. I'm impressed."
"I'm sure some would have rather unkind things to say about me. But I've had a great day."
"Would you like to stay with me tonight?"
"I don't fuck and leave, Jenassa. Even if it's only a one-night thing, though I'm hoping this isn't, I always stay for a cuddle. And in the hope of being fucked in the morning."
Jenassa was a pure warrior. Finding her soft body moulded back against hers, she couldn't help marvel at the power in her arms, though she wasn't muscular. She was athletically built but was definitely fit. Or, as she would put it, fit as fuck. But her voice didn't match, pure silk, and rather soft. And when holding her, she felt soft hands stroke her body, making her feel relaxed. "You'll have to invite me along one day," she whispered, "I'd like to meet some of your lovers, then we can have fun with you. Definitely want to fuck that tight little arse you have."
She couldn't help laugh. "We're trying to sleep, Jenassa, and I can feel you getting harder again."
"I can fall asleep hard. That's not a problem."
It was a blissful sleep, waking up still cocooned in the arms of her new lover. She knew Jenassa was awake when feeling soft lips at her neck. All she did was lift her leg over hers and felt Jenassa slide her cock inside her. Compared to the night before, the sex was tender, rather gentle that morning, Marielle able to turn just enough so they could kiss properly. "Shame you've got to go," Jenassa murmured, "Would love to keep you around for a few days…"
"I live close by. You could always visit when I'm there."
She wasn't worried about her own orgasm, just wanting to feel Jenassa inside her again, and when she came a little later, their appetites were somewhat sated for now. After dressing, they made out a final time before heading downstairs for breakfast, Elrindir making no mention of the night before, though the glances suggested he'd heard plenty. Marielle figured Jenassa was a regular and would no doubt have jokes at her expense once she'd left.
Jenassa had her own work to do, so headed outside together, Marielle needing to go home, Jenassa heading off for a few days. They shared one long kiss before finally splitting apart with promises to get together another time. Marielle watched her go, as those legs she had were something else, plus she had quite the nice little arse herself. She had a feeling Jenassa was one futanari who only fucked, and was ever fucked. There were a few like that.
Heading into Breezehome, there was no sign of Lydia, which wasn't a surprise. Whenever she spent time with Lydia, Marielle had learned she'd be gone for a few days. She was fairly sure they didn't just fuck each other, but probably shared other women, or other futanari. It wasn't her place to pry though she would admit to interest in what they got up to.
Her bag was already packed to go, so she changed into her leather armour, grabbed her bow and quiver of arrows, and after a last check, headed outside, locked up the house, and walked down to the stables. As she wasn't doing work for the Companions, she didn't have a horse, so needed to rely on a carriage to take her to Riften. Warned it would take longer than a day to get there, as the route was perilous at times, she said that was fine, as long as she got there in the end.
The carriage eventually stopped in a hamlet by the name of Shor's Stone, still a few hours short of Riften. There were only a few dwellings, but it was home to a large mine, and as the carriage driver set up their small camp, she walked over to join them. Marielle knew she was a lost cause as she was rather attracted to the only female of the group, a soft-spoken Nordic woman named Sylgja.
Caught up in each other, they barely noticed the other miners leave, glancing over to see her carriage driver already in his tent. Sylgja blushed, brushing a strand of her hair over her ear as their eyes met. Marielle would have loved an invite back, but it had been a tiring day, and she would even admit she could do with a night just sleeping by herself in a tent.
"You've been delightful company, Sylgja. Definitely an excuse to visit this place again."
"You would?"
"Of course."
That made her smile, and she escorted her to the door. No goodnight kiss, but there was a hug, Sylgja thanking her for just listening to her. Mining was a hard life, and Sylgja was doing her best to scratch a living for herself. As Sylgja opened the door, Marielle pulled her back and kissed her, Sylgja practically melting into her. It was nice to be kissing someone of similar height for once.
"Sorry, didn't want to leave with just a hug," Marielle said softly upon breaking apart.
"Trust me, I'd invite you in but I wake up early."
"As I said, there is always next time. I'm sure I'll end up heading this way again."
"I hope so."
They shared a last, lingering kiss, before she pulled back, wishing her goodnight, and gently closed the door. Chuckling to herself at how easily she seemed to find potential lovers, Marielle headed to the tent and probably amazed herself at how quickly she ended up falling asleep.
Arriving at Riften gates around lunchtime the next day, she had received plenty of warning sfrom the carriage driver about what to expect, and her first experience was a doozy, as the pair of city guards at the gates tried to fleece her of well-earned coin. She knew she couldn't fight them, so played her usual damsel in distress routine, which made them relent quickly and allowed her into the city.
Taking a deep breath, she stepped through the gates and into some new potential avenues regarding her life.
