****** Mistress in the Night by MadCelt ****** =============================================================================== Mistress in the Night I had been going to the princess's birthday celebration since she was 8. In the year of our Lord 1278 she turned 14. She was slowly turning into a young woman. King Edward had been a good friend of mine for many years. In fact his son and mine could be found hunting the King's land many times through the year. Winter was finally upon us and they had since travelled to the Holy Lands for a pilgrimage. As for my wife, she was feeling ill and had taken to her bed. I had just finished putting my heavy cloak on when one of my servants came into my dressing chamber. "Good evening Lord Charles, I hope I did not disturb you," he said quietly. "No, not at all Edmund, what did you wish to tell me?" I asked. "Your horse is ready for you at the front gate my lord," he responded. "Thank you Edmund, see to it that my wife sleeps comfortably tonight, I may not be back until morning. This storm seems to be coming upon us quickly, I do not wish to be caught in it later," I said. "Do be careful my lord, I do not like the looks of the storm myself," he added. I added quickly, "It is not bad, I have made it through worse." Saying that I strode out of the room and made my way down the ornately carved stairs to the front gate. This castle had been in my family for decades and each generation had added to it, the stairs were my addition. My horse stood there tied to a post, his breath visible as he breathed the chill air. As I lifted myself unto my horse I realised that I would not have to sleep alone at the King's palace. Catherine, my mistress had returned from France where she was shopping for gifts for the King's daughter. I pulled my cloak tight around me as my heart skipped a beat, it had been a long time since we had been together. As I urged the horse forward I mentally went through the best route to take. With the weather being as it was I took a path that was a little longer, but it was not as treacherous as the shorter ones. I had always enjoyed riding and the trip was a quick one as I sung lowly through the woods. Upon arriving a servant took my horse to the warm stables and I strode through the entrance to the palace. The ballroom was full of well-wishers and as I scanned the room I saw the princess and her ladies in waiting sitting and giggling about something. Perhaps what one of them was doing last evening with one of the servants. Girls their age were rarely pure as the snow that was now falling slowly through the cold air, but it was rumoured that princess was still a virgin. I would hope that my son would one day catch her eye, but only time would tell. It was unfortunate that he could not be here tonight, though I am glad in a way that I was able to stay the night. If he had been with me he would have insisted on going home after the dancing had tapered off. As my eyes scanned the room once more I saw the King and some of his advisors talking amongst themselves about some type of political movement likely. My eyes had just about finished their circuit when I saw her walking into the room. She was wearing a beautiful dark red gown. I had never seen her in it before and I found out later that it was something she bought in France on her trip. As I looked her up and down I felt my manhood shift slightly. She finally caught my eye and I slowly walked over to her as she beckoned me nearer. I kissed her cheek lightly as we embraced. "How have you been my dear?" I whispered in her ear as I broke the kiss. "Very well my lord, I have missed you very much," She replied as she took my hand in hers. She pulled me into a shadow and gave me a long kiss, her hands caressing my back softly. Just as I was about to tell her to wait until later a servant announced that the first remove was ready and that everyone could take their seats in the dining hall. I took my seat at the head table and she took her seat at another table with the queen's ladies in waiting. She was the oldest, and might I add the most beautiful, of them all. Her green eyes could warm your heart with one glance. Her soft touch could thaw any frozen heart. Her long dark hair was lifted in many combs, it certainly was a very nice addition to her dress. I caught her eye on more than a few occasions through the long and boring feast. Many people rose to pay homage to the princess. In my opinion they were all a bunch of brown-nosing do-nothings. As supper drew to an end I smiled towards Catherine. She smiled back and gave me a quick wink. We usually cut out of the dancing early in order to spend more time together. Tonight would be no exception as we had been apart for nearly a month. As I walked up to her she hugged me close and whispered something about all the long-winded well-wishers. I laughed politely and took her hand and lead her to the ballroom where the musicians had gathered already. A volte was the first dance and I took every opportunity to flirt with Catherine throughout the first three dances. At the end of the third dance I sneaked up behind her and hugged her from behind. "Oh my!" she gasped. Smiling I turned her around and kissed her on her lips and drew her into the shadows. "I long for your company dear, won't you join me?" I asked. "Yes my lord," she said quietly. "Lead the way my dear," I said as I caressed her rosy cheek. We slipped out of the ballroom unnoticed and started ascending the stairs to her bed chamber. As I followed behind her I pinched her bottom and she jumped. "Miss me?" I asked. As a response she turned towards me and kissed me in a fashion that only lovers use. She gently sucked on my tongue as I pressed her against the wall, my hands lifting her dress to caress her thigh. She pushed me away playfully and ran up the stairs to her room with me in pursuit. She ran in and sat down on her bed and I followed her and pushed her down onto it slowly. I took off my over tunic and let it drop to the floor before I slowly started to unlace her bodice. She pulled me down to kiss me again and I returned it deeply, my hands pressing against her full bosom. As I slowly undressed her I caressed her naked body, admiring her beauty. "You are still the most beautiful women in all of England my love," I whispered into her ear. Blushing deeply she slide a hand down and grasped my manhood. I rolled over and let her undress me, her soft touch driving me mad as she teased me. As she finished I drew her into my arms and kissed her neck slowly from ear to ear. As she moaned with pleasure she rolled over and pulled me with her. I slowly kissed down her body and caressed her sides slowly. As my lips stumbled upon her hardening nipples I kissed them both and then sucked on them gently. I casually licked and kissed my way down her body until I was nibbling on her thigh. She ran her long fingers through my hair as I kissed her thigh. I could smell her sweetness. She was ready for me but I would not let her have me yet. I easily spread her legs apart and took one of my hands and ran it through her fuzzy hair, spreading her flower I began to lick up her nectar. As I tasted her she moaned lowly and pressed my head into her, her back arching in pleasure as I slid my tongue inside her. As I dug in deeper my nose bumped against her bud and she whimpered in pleasure, rolling her hips to get more. I licked her bud with my tongue again and again her moaning increasing as she drew nearer to climax. I slide a finger inside her and that proved to much as she shook and flooded my finger with her nectar. I licked her clean and then slid up to kiss her deeply. As I did she ran her hand up and down my back and slipped it down between my legs to stroke my shaft slowly. "Mmm... So you did miss me didn't you?" I asked. "Yes," she replied as she squeezed it gently. "Take me!" I started rubbing my manhood against her soft petals and tickled her bud. She moaned lowly as I cautiously entered her. She was tighter since I last took her and I then knew that she had been faithful while in France. I buried myself deep inside her and finally started to work it in and out slowly, at first using short strokes and then working it in and out full length as she closed her eyes and rolled her head to the side. I leaned down to kiss her nipples and started to quicken my pace. Again I heard her volume increase as she approached climax. I slowed down, feeling myself drawing nearer also. I began to move my hips in circular motions as I made love to her. I loved the feeling of her silky love canal tighten around my hard shaft and I let myself relax as my manhood shook inside her as I poured forth my hot seed. As we melted into each other's arms I kissed her passionately, my hands caressing her back. "I missed you my lord," she said. "Not half as much as I missed you my lady," said I. As we snuggled against each other she smiled up at me. We soon fell asleep and when we woke up in the morning... Well, that is another story...
