The insistent tug at his beard sends a little shiver through him. Most women, even women who have spent time as shield maidens, aren't rough with him. They tend to go soft and pliant, but he likes this. He likes the edge of fierceness in her, the way she doesn't care for the blood still staining his face, the fact she presses herself up to him for more of that kiss. It's impossible to forget she's a goddess, and simply fall into the moment with possibly the most beautiful woman he's ever seen: there are too many little reminders that set her out as different.
That does not stop his arms from coiling around her, his hands smoothing down her sides and then around her back, lifting her so that he no longer has to bend. He isn't sure what he expected holding a god like this to feel like, but again, nothing strikes him down. Her divinity does not make it difficult to hold her or his arms ache, and that's welcome. If only because holding her against him like this brings her flush against him, her breasts against his chest and her hips aligned with him.
Rollo should know better. She's a goddess, one who has offered him more favour than any other person in his life, she has saved him from death to ensure he has a chance to fulfil the destiny she has told him about. He should be more respectful. He should not kiss her like this, he should not feel his body throb hungrily for her. Nor should he so desperately enjoy this, the way her nails catch against his skin, the power of her so much stronger than his own. But he does like it, all of it.
And would it be so bad, part of him thinks, to be remembered in legend as one of Freya's mortal lovers?
She’s not sure why women aren’t rough with him, he’s a strong, strapping man and she’s well aware that he can take it. Freya likes him this way, rough and raw, and she’s happy to show that like as well. In a lot of ways, she’ll always be a goddess, but in some ways she’s very much just a woman at the same time. There are wants and desires just like everyone else, and the feel of him against her mouth, against her body, fans those desires deep inside her.
Legs slide along his hips as he lifts her up, settling around his skin to help hold herself up too. Though she has a feeling he could hold her that way for a while. One hand threads through his hair, nails sharp against skin without breaking it along his scalp as she gives a happy sound into the kiss even as she deepens it. There’s the softest tug of teeth against his lower lip, almost a question of if he wants a little hungrier, a little rougher than the current kiss they have. In this way, she is a goddess and he doesn’t have to be careful with her, she’d almost prefer if he wasn’t.
In some ways, Freya would argue that he’s showing her as much respect as he can. To know that his body throbs with hunger for her, that he finds her pleasurable even from just being flushed against each other and tangled in a kiss. This is everything she watches over, but narrowed down to just their pleasure. If he wants to stop, she will, but this far into the kiss, wrapped around him as she is, she’s hoping that he won’t want to stop, that he wants to continue, to see this through. There would be no hard feelings should he want to stop, no resentment.
Warrior, Lover, Favored by the Gods. Rollo probably couldn’t ask for more. Could he?
