Bound and Determined

Reclining back against the fallen tree trunk, the rough bark a pleasant contrast to the feel of soft hair against her thigh, Xena slowly ate another piece of the smoked fish. Heavy flavor, sharpened with hints of salt and herbs, perfect texture as it fell apart over her tongue; Joxer really was a good cook.

"Do you want more?" she asked, licking at a small piece stuck to her finger. The brush of her tongue dislodged it and the piece fell, landing on her stomach, warm against bare skin.

Joxer's gaze followed it with visible hunger, hands clenching against the rope binding them tightly behind his back. He licked his lips, his breath hot against her inner thigh. "Yeah." His voice sounded good like that, low and rough. But then he smiled up at her, tearing his gaze from her stomach to give her one of those jarringly bright smiles that was so at odds with his vulnerability, naked between her thighs.

"All right." Xena reached down beside her to pull off a piece of the cooling fish. Lying on the leaves it'd been baked in, it was close to being nothing but bones now, but there was still enough there for a few more bites.

Joxer opened his mouth, craning his head back a little for a better angle. But Xena shook her head, smiling slightly as she dropped the meat on her breast, her nipple already taut from the chill in the air and previous visits from Joxer's tongue.

His smile was even brighter this time.

She couldn't hold back a small shiver when he leaned forward, just a little, and licked the first piece of fish from her stomach. Soft, hot tongue, licking one more time than necessary, leaving a wet trail behind.

"How about I start down here," Joxer said, lowering his head, "and work my way up to the next piece?"

Xena nodded, not that Joxer could see her, but his tongue was already moving, light, teasing flicks, and words just weren't an option anymore.
