Oh look! Yet another fresh story while a bunch of others go unfinished. XD

Here's a naughty short-story featuring a male and a female anthro dragon! I haven't done a whole lot of straight stuff as of late, so this was a nice change. ^^

Thanks for reading!


"C'mon, I think it's right over here!" Koran called out and hopped down a short ledge. His girlfriend, Lily, was not far behind him, giggling brightly as she bounded forward between the trees to catch up to him.

"You think or you know?"

He held out his hand with a smile and helped her step down. Below them was a gradual, cascading staircase of rocky ledges in varying sizes. The makeshift path curled around the cliffside and into a deep valley that had been carved out by a river at some point in the past.

"I'm pretty sure," he answered. "It's not much further."

"Koran, if you get us lost, I swear..."

He chuckled and guided her down each step until they reached the bottom. A couple hundred feet to their left was the other cliffside covered by trees and foliage. They hugged the right cliff wall and wandered deeper into the valley. Stepping between trees and plants, they occasionally crunched on twigs. Sometimes, they ducked under big branches and pushed through the brush.

"We won't get lost; I know the way back to the path." They had traveled off the worn pathway used by hikers and nature enthusiasts, making their own adventure into the wilderness to a secret place Koran had discovered a few months ago with his friends. "Trust me, you'll love this."

She smiled at him and held his hand. For a moment, he lost himself in her smile, her soft, blue eyes speaking words he wished he could hear. Curling his scaly tail around hers, they walked side-by-side.

Birds chirped and sang, calling back and forth through the trees. The canopy overhead blocked the afternoon sun and provided a comfortable shade where a cool breeze could whisk the scent of fresh water into their nostrils. In the distance, Koran heard a waterfall, and it grew louder the closer they were.

Between the trees, it came into view; it spilled from the top of the cliff into the crystal-clear pond below. The roar was much louder once they stepped up to the shoreline closest to it--it overpowered most other sounds, and they had to speak up to hear each other. A short length of the bank was sand while the rest of it had rocks jutting out.

"Wow, this is beautiful," Lily said, looking around. It was a secluded pond, hidden in the pocket of rocky cliffs. She approached the water and knelt down to touch it. "But the water is pretty cold."

"Yeah, but this time of year is when it's the prettiest." He pointed up at the top of the cliff, where cherry trees were in full bloom. Even along the banks of the pond, there were colorful flowers that people had planted here over time. Most were blooming while others had already flowered.

Koran leaned over and picked up a white flower. He bared a loving expression and caressed Lily's cheek before tucking it between her ear and her horn. Her soft smile meant the world to him.

"This is really beautiful," she repeated and nuzzled him.

He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek. "Not as beautiful as you."

"Oh my goodness, that is so corny!" she retorted, giggling. "You were waiting to say that--I know you were."

He laughed and squeezed her tightly. "Mhm, because you know it's true."

Koran was taller than her, so she had to lean up against him to plant a kiss on his lips. With a rumble, he kissed her back as he held her. He relaxed and enjoyed the warm, calm sensations of having someone he loved so close to him.

They had been dating for several months now after meeting at a college party. She had caught his eye immediately; Lily was easily the prettiest dragoness at the party. Her soft-green hide blended perfectly with her features. She was lean, but she had a little muscle from the softball that she played. And the way she smiled and laughed was intoxicating--Koran would never get enough of that.

He had been surprised that she asked him out for their first date. She must have known he would be too shy to ask himself, so she took the first step and took him out to dinner. It was then that he knew she would be perfect for him, someone who would make him genuinely happy.

Though she told him he was handsome and awesome to talk with, he didn't believe her. He had simple, two-toned, earthy colors that painted his hide: copper mostly on his back that stretched partly around to his front, and then tan that covered his chest, stomach, and the inner parts of his arms and legs. His footpaws were a darker-brown.

"This is actually kind of romantic," she said, baring that joyful grin he loved so much. "So that's why you wanted to bring that pack with us."

He nodded and knelt down, slinging the backpack off his shoulders. Setting it down, he reached inside and pulled out a mini-cooler to keep their sandwiches cold.

"Shall we?" he gave her the one and took the other for himself. They sat on a flat rock together and ate their sandwiches while admiring the scenery. His hand rested on top of hers, and she twined their tails together again. The rumbling of the waterfall became background noise, and Lily was the center of all his attention. Every time she smiled, he would smile too; and every time she laughed, he would laugh too.

After they ate, they put their wrappers away and relaxed together to enjoy one another's company. She leaned against his side and rested her head on his shoulder. He couldn't have asked for anything more.

"Do you think anyone is around?" Lily asked and rubbed his thigh.

At first, her touch was normal and flirting, but her hand trailed up his leg until she squeezed at the crook of it. Warmth flushed his cheeks as she touched him close to his crotch. She had never touched him so intimately before. It felt good--really good--to have a female's delicate touch caress the inner part of his thigh, even if it was through his jeans.

"Uh-uhm... No, I really doubt it. Why do you ask?"

A smirk crossed her lips. "Because I'd like to go swimming, but I didn't bring any swimwear." The last part of her sentence ended in a light trill, which sent a shiver down Koran's spine.

Does she really mean...

"You want to skinny-dip?" he asked disbelievingly. "The water is so cold... a-and..."

"And I want you to join me," she said and started unbuttoning his pants. Her knuckles bumped into his groin and made him clench his toes.

Koran gulped down any retorts to that and nodded. "O-Okay..." He froze and watched her unzip his jeans. Leaning back, he shyly opened his legs and let her pull down the zipper to expose his gray-boxer briefs underneath. As she touched him and undressed him, warmth rushed through his loins, making his sheath tingle. It made him feel strange and anxious; should he let her continue? Was he ready to let her see him naked? The bulge of his balls and sheath rounded his crotch, and he knew that's exactly where she was staring as she tugged down his pants. He helped her slip them off and left his scales exposed.

The tan coloring of his underbelly stretched down the inner parts of his thighs and ended before his knees. His hard, copper scales followed down his legs until it merged with the dark-brown scales of his footpaws.

He unzipped his jacket, and she helped pull it off of him, and then she lifted up his shirt and took it off. When she grinned at him, he bashfully turned his head away and blushed.

"Oh come on, Kory," she cooed. "We've been together for a while now. No need to be shy around me."

But we've never seen each other naked...

This was all so sudden. It was the next step in their relationship, to see each other naturally without clothes, but he never expected it to be out in the open like this. A cool breeze brushed across him, but that wasn't the only reason he shivered.

"Y-yeah..." He looked into her eyes and bared a small smile. He was almost naked next to his mate; he couldn't believe it. The most clothes he had off in front of her before this was just a shirt. He once saw Lily in her bra, and that had been very embarrassing for him because he had to hide a stiffy.

Lily pulled off her sweatshirt in front of him and quickly slipped out of her t-shirt. For the second time in his life, he saw her bra covering her plump, round breasts. His face flushed with heat, and he had to look away and cover himself with his arms, but she touched his cheek and guided his vision back to her chest.

Slowly, Lily unhooked her bra and let it fall from her. The mint-green color of her scales was much softer at her chest and down her belly. She didn't have the biggest breasts, but for being average, it was almost too much for Koran to handle. Unlike their mammal counterparts, dragons didn't have any nipples, so her smooth, tiny scales were seamless. He admired her body as he fidgeted nervously.

"O-Oh wow..." He stared at her naked breasts for the first time ever, rousing many pent desires. There was no holding back now--this was happening. The tingling in his thickening sheath quickly led to his flesh growing and tenting his underwear. He wondered how soft they were, and it was like she read his mind.

She took his hand and pressed it to one of her breasts, holding it there to let him feel her. He shuddered as he cupped it and gave it a few testing squeezes. Lily purred at his touch, and she seemed to like it when he started rubbing. She unbuttoned her pants and stood up as she took them off, letting Koran's touch fall from her chest.

Thin, black underwear hugged around her nethers, leaving the both of them nearly naked until she confidently tugged it down and exposed herself completely to him. Her back faced him so he couldn't see what was between her legs yet, but he had the best view of her rump. Perfect curves rounded her smooth body. The larger scales on her back were a darker green, following her graceful form gorgeously.

"You're so beautiful," he said, an even hotter blush burning his cheeks.

A bright smile showed her teeth. "Do you need me to help you finish undressing or do you think you can handle that?" she teased.

Koran swallowed and realized that his cock was rock hard, and that was very obvious as it poked out from between his thighs. He felt her gaze wander over him as he slowly took off his last garment--now they were both naked together.

But his pink flesh was twitching needily, jutting out of his crotch with pre beading at the tip. There was no way he could hide his embarrassment, but Lily didn't seem to mind whatsoever. She looked at his member and then up into his eyes.

"That's better," she said with a soft chirr.

She bent over to pick up her clothes with the purposeful lift of her tail, exposing her gender to Koran for a brief moment. His eyes were glued to her perfectly round hind end, a thick tailbase set between her cheeks. Lily turned around, and he saw her slit again. It was just a thin crease between her legs, hiding the rest of her sex behind closed, softly-scaled lips.

From her head to her toes, her naked scales took a wonderful blend of green: a calm, relaxing shade of mint following the outer parts of her body, and an even softer, light shade in the middle, inner parts of her body. Her breasts were perky, only sagging a little, and they added to the beautiful curvature of her form--almost an hourglass figure. Her hips were set wide and her legs were long and slender with thicker muscles at her thighs.

"Close your mouth, sweetie. It's unbecoming of you to drool," she teased again, giggling. She folded up her clothes neatly and set them down next to him before leaning in for a kiss.

It caught him off guard as he gulped and closed his mouth. When her lips touched his, he closed his eyes and delved into a loving, tender kiss. Her scent filled his nostrils and his erection throbbed. Their tongues curled together for a brief moment until she slowly pulled away; it looked like she was blushing too.

She looked down at his aroused, protruding flesh, igniting his embarrassment which burned his face. It wasn't anything special: he was an average size, maybe a little longer, and his spire was smooth from tapering tip to the base. His orbs rested on the stone that he sat on. He didn't try to close his legs or hide it; instead, he let her look at his nakedness until her gaze returned to his golden eyes.

In that moment, he wondered if they were going to have sex out in the middle of the wilderness. For their first time, it sure would be something special, but he wasn't sure about doing it publicly, even if they were completely alone. What if someone happened to stumble across them?

"You're very sexy," Lily complimented and rubbed his thigh, just inches away from his twitching arousal. He hoped she would touch his flesh; he desperately wanted to feel it. After fantasizing about it for so long and being so intimate with her now, he wanted to feel her soft paw grope him. But she pulled her hand away and sauntered toward the pond, hips swaying and tail swishing.

"Y-You are too..." Koran stared at her naked body and watched her step into the water. She looked back expectantly, so he stood up and walked to her with his erection bobbing back and forth. Steadily, he calmed down from the awkwardness and discomfort he initially felt being naked in front of Lily. And when he stepped into the icy water, he shuddered and his flesh retreated back into its warm home. His orbs wanted to shrivel up inside him, too.

The further they stepped into the cold pond, the more he worried about freezing instead of his nudity. Eventually, they submerged themselves deep enough that their bodies were obscured by the water, though the water was clear, so it wasn't difficult to see that they weren't wearing any clothes. Where the water was still except for a few ripples, Koran could somewhat admire Lily's breasts and supple body.

"This is really cold," he stated, crossing his arms.

Lily chuckled and dove forward to swim out to where her feet couldn't touch. Koran watched her and admired her beauty before going to join her too. Thankfully, dragon scales were somewhat resistant to the cold and water, so when he started moving, it didn't seem so frigid.

"Not so bad, huh?" Lily smiled at him and splashed a bit of water his way.

He wore a small, shy grin and shook his head. "I-I guess not."

"There's no one around; loosen up a bit," she cooed and swam on her back with her chest bobbing out of the water.

He blushed and looked around. Except for the waterfall, everything was quiet and still. The forest surrounded them on one side and rocky walls on the other. Water cascaded down three different ledges, roaring and bubbling at the other edge of the basin. Toward the left side, a river flowed and took the excess water away.

"I'm not nervous because we're out in the open," he started. "It's... more like because I've never been naked in front of anyone before..."

"Oh, really? Have you ever seen anyone else naked?"

"I-I-I uhm... not in p-person... real life... but on the internet," he answered truthfully and somewhat ashamed.

She swam back to him with a wide-set smile. "So you've never done anything... with anyone?"

He shook his head. Of course he had imagined having sex with someone else many times in the past, and more recently Lily; he often used his hand to pleasure himself while looking at naughty images on the computer. Not once had he ever been so exposed and with someone else. He doubted anyone had ever seen his erection other than Lily.

"Hmmm... That's good to know," she cooed and swam away from him again.

"W-Why's that good to know?" he asked and swam after her.

"It means I'll be your first!" she answered cheerfully, turning to greet him with a kiss.

"Oh... Well... uhm, yeah..." he stammered. "D-Does that mean... you... want to...?" He stared at the ripples in the water, unable to meet her eyes. They were talking about sex, something Koran had been fantasizing about since they first started dating. She was so beautiful and sexy that it was hard not to think about it when he saw her!

A smirk crossed her lips. "Only if you do."

Koran gulped. "I'd love t-to..."

"Mmmm... good." Lily turned to the shore and swam toward it.

"Right now?" he asked incredulously. "But w-we just started swimming..."

She didn't look back at him or answer his question. Instead, she continued up to the shoreline with Koran following behind her. She stepped out of the water and exposed her nakedness again, taught rump swaying with her steps, breasts dripping with water. Her wet, soft-green scales looked sleek, glistening in the sunlight.

Koran stepped out after her and felt the cold wind nip at his scales, but the warmth of the sun helped fight the cold from his bones. He watched Lily saunter over to his backpack and rummage through it while she bent over, covering herself with her tail. She searched for something but couldn't find it, but she was sure to give Koran a show, with her hips swaying back and forth with her tail.

"I guess we don't have any towels," she said, standing back up and flashing him a coy smile.

"I didn't think to bring any..." He couldn't help but to stare at her. She was perfect.

"I suppose we'll just have to air-dry," she replied, smirking as she sat on a smooth, flat rock, with her legs spread shamelessly. One leg was up on the rock while the other dangled off of it. Water dripped off her body and soaked the dry rock. Casually, she rested an arm on her raised leg and looked at Koran as if to judge his reaction.

And she saw him staring with wide, curious eyes. Her slit was right there in front of him, nestled between her open thighs, shining in the sunlight. Lily's beauty was so alluring, and she confidently displayed herself to him.

"Why don't you get a closer look, handsome?" she cooed and spread her legs farther apart.

Koran looked up into her eyes; she wanted more than just looking. His face was already flushed, and the rest of his body was warming up rather quickly--not just because of the sun. His tapered tip poked out of his sheath, and she saw it as he scooted closer to her. He sat on the rock facing her, but with both of his legs hanging off of it. His eyes trailed down to her breasts and down to her slit again.

"You're so beautiful," he said.

Lily cooed and caressed his head, pulling him toward her chest. "Closer," she purred.

He shuddered as his nose touched her breasts, pushing between them as she guided him. From here, her scent was provocative and filling his head with lustful desires. He gripped her thighs as he leaned over her and nuzzled into her chest. Taking a deep breath, he tried to relax and breathe it out slowly.

Soft gasps and coos escaped her lips as she rubbed his head and held it against her body. She was turned on too, which excited Koran greatly--they were finally going to take the next step. The worries and anxieties he had about being naked and doing naughty things in the forest pushed to the furthest corners of his mind. His needs and desires came second, only to be preceded by anything Lily wished.

His cock swelled, and his own scent spilled into the fresh air. Never before had he felt the instinct to mate so strongly. He lustfully rubbed his snout into her chest, but she continued to pull him down. Koran realized what was happening when Lily lay with her back on the rock, legs spread as she pushed his muzzle down between them. He hardly had any time to think before he was licking and rubbing his nose against her groin.

"Oooohhh! Good boy," she moaned as his tongue slathered up her slit.

He only licked her soft scales at first before his tongue pressed between her nether lips and dragged across her sensitive flesh. Another lewd moan escaped her lips while she gripped the back of his head. She tasted almost sweet, an unexpected, delectable flavor that aroused him. This was nothing like what he had imagined it would be, yet he thoroughly enjoyed every second of it.

Lily lay back and relaxed with Koran's muzzle buried between her thighs. When she moaned, it sent shivers through his scales. He loved hearing how he pleasured her, encouraging him to continue lapping across her sex. She rolled her hips into him and grabbed between his horns, somewhat grinding against his muzzle. He held onto her thighs and dutifully tended to his girlfriend.

"Oooh... Wow, Kory..."

The more he licked her, the wetter she was. Secretions oozed from her vent, mixing with his saliva that coated her scales and flesh. Her nether lips were so soft, and they parted easily to expose her even softer, pink flesh. Koran slipped his tongue between them and plunged into her entrance, eliciting a loud groan from her as muscles clenched around him. His snout rubbed against her wet groin, his nostrils smothered by her arousal and intoxicating scent.

"Aaaahhh, your tongue..." She let go of his head and squirmed as he ate her out. His tongue wetly squelched inside her, and he pushed it in as deep as it would go. Sometimes, he curled it and wriggled it around, trying to find those sensitive spots he heard about from his friends, and he knew when he found one as she whined and gasped for breath.

Opening his eyes, he looked up at her from between her thighs and watched her expression scrunch together. She moaned to him and panted while rubbing one of her breasts. She was enjoying every second of it, her breaths heavy and filled with lust as she lay on her back with her legs open to him.

Koran didn't want to stop, but he felt the need to spill his seed quickly overwhelming his normal thoughts. His cock ached and pulsed, dripping with pre; he needed release. The desire to take her, to feel her hot, soft walls clenching around his flesh, was pushing at his mind the longer he tasted and smelled her. Primal instincts welled inside him.

He pulled his muzzle away and licked his lips as he sat up on the rock on his knees, looking over her sexy body. Taking his cock in his hand, he showed it to her and stared between her legs at her wet, swollen sex. This was it. He was going to lose his virginity here and now, in the middle of the wilderness.

Lily eyed him with a glazed expression. She spread her legs a little wider, presenting herself to him. Soft-green scales seamlessly followed her every curve all the way down to her engorged lips. Her vision rested on his cock, with desire showing in her gaze.

"No protection?" she asked, smiling.

The sudden realization hit him, and he silently cursed to himself. No protection... damnit!

He never would have thought to bring any with him; he never expected something like this to happen on a picnic! Here he was, aroused, hot, and needing to satisfy his pent lusts, but he didn't have any condoms with him. There were some in his car, but that was nearly a mile away! He let out a huff and a sigh, disappointed.

I guess I'll just keep licking her... And maybe after she can blow me... He liked the thought of that.

But before he could return to pleasuring her, she cooed and beckoned to him. "Let's do it anyway."

Koran gulped. "Are you s-sure? What if--"

"I want this, Kory," she said and sat up, her hands guiding him down on his back. He didn't think twice and followed her touch until his back rested against a rock, his head propped against it. It wasn't the most comfortable place to have sex, but neither of them seemed to mind it. She climbed over him and straddled his hips, her breasts only inches away from his snout.

His hands mindlessly moved to her round hips as her body pressed against his. All he could do was lean against the rock and submit to her, to share an intimacy they had never experienced together before. He watched her hand grip his hard flesh and tug it into position between her thighs, and what came next felt unbelievably amazing.

His length slipped inside her hot, wet, soft folds, squeezing and stretching her slippery flesh. Pleasure trickled up from his loins and pulsed in the back of his mind. More and more of his sensitive cock pushed inside her, delving deep into her snug warmth. She felt soft, so incredibly soft. He felt every inch of his flesh being embraced by her warm, slippery passage.

Her hands moved to his tan chest and a deep, huffy breath escaped her lips. She felt so tight around him, and he could feel her clenches as she took him. Moments later, his entirety was buried inside her slit, their hips conjoining as lovers.

"Mmmmm... Lily..." Koran stole a glance between them, seeing how his flesh stretched her slit. Then she shifted forward until her breasts squished against him, and his eyes moved to hers. Warm, blue sphere's stared him back. With her eyes closed, she leaned in while tilting her head to the side. Their snouts bumped together and their lips met.

Koran's hands slid up her naked body and wrapped around her tightly as he kissed her. This kiss felt like so much more than before; so many new feelings were welling up inside him, creating new sensations he didn't know existed. It felt like they were connected on a much more deeper level. And unlike their previous kisses, this one was fueled by lust, so it felt sloppier but so much hotter.

Lily rolled her hips and caused his flesh to move inside her, drawing out a lewd groan from him. He curled his toes and sucked in a quick breath before she coaxed another moan with her movements. After they broke their kiss, she half-grinded against him and half-lifted her hips up at the same time, letting his hard length slip in and out of her velvety sex.

"O-Ooh... mmmm..."

"Does that feel good?" Lily asked with a bright giggle. She was slow at first, letting both of them grow acquainted to how they felt together.

"Yeah, really good..." He rubbed her back to help her feel good and to express his affection as she kneaded into his broad chest.

At this rate, Koran wasn't sure how long he would last. All of these new feelings blissful sensations were crashing against him wave after wave, and Lily was unceasing in her efforts. She rode him faster and worked herself into a smooth rhythm, almost bouncing in his lap. His hands returned to her rump, groping and squeezing while he felt her hips swaying and moving up and down. Every time her rump lifted up, he felt his length tugging out of her, and when she sat down again, he felt it slide right back inside her hot tunnel.

He heard her moans and felt her shudders. In a way, he wished this would last forever, but that blissful warmth stirring in his loins made him want to finish and spill his seed. He never imagined how wet, soft, and tight a female would be; it was so much better in real life.

"Oooh, Kory!" she moaned. To hear her say his name like that--to know that he was giving her pleasure--felt amazing. There was more to sex than just getting off, he realized. It was about sharing that pleasure with his partner, someone he loved and wanted to feel the same ecstasy as he was.

Each time her hips returned to his lap, he gave a gentle thrust up and pushed his cock deeper inside her. He was rewarded with a husky groan from her, as well as the pleasure of burying his length as deep as it could go. Their hips patted together repeatedly, just barely audible above the background noise of the waterfall.

Sometimes, she would take pauses and simply enjoy him and enjoy the feeling of having his flesh buried inside her. And he would take great pleasure from that too. Her soft walls quivered around his length, gripping and squeezing snugly around him. She felt so wet and her secretions leaked around his spire and coated his sheath. Slowly, her hips moved back and forth, swiveling in his lap, before continuing up and down in a constant motion.

He wasn't sure how long they had been going at it, but he knew he was getting close. That familiar sensation of warmth balled up in his loins, some of it trickling up his spine to the back of his tingling head. About now was the time he'd slow down and just let it steadily build, but he had no control over that with Lily riding him continuously. No, he couldn't stop it, and it was coming faster than he anticipated. It was like a lightning bolt coursing throughout his body, sparking an explosion.

"Oh... Ooh, gods! Lily... Lily, w-wait, I think I'm--aaaahhh!"

His hands gripped her hind end tightly as his flesh throbbed and spewed the first thick strand of cum inside her. A lewd moan followed his gasp of breath as his seed spilled inside Lily's vent, gushing and spraying across her walls with every powerful pulse. Without any protection to stop him, he quickly filled her loins with his seed, and what didn't stay inside her oozed out. The intensity of his orgasm had his head reeling, unable to make sense of anything other than how good it felt.

Lily rode him through his climax and prolonged it. Her moans harmonized with his, and her muscles sporadically squeezed around his pulsating flesh.

"Aah... Aaahh, Kory..." Her gyrating hips slowed down until she sat in his lap and let him finish inside her. Through his blissful stupor, he realized that she was cumming too. Lily was experiencing the pinnacle of pleasure like he had just felt, but now he was coming out of it as she began.

Kory lay back against the rock and basked in the afterglow. Warm relaxation washed over him like a pleasant bath. He loved how Lily's face scrunched together while she squirmed and gasped. Her muscles undulated around his length and milked him for the last of his seed. He hoped there wouldn't be any eggs because of this, but he did like the idea of how he claimed her.

Or more how she claimed him; she had him pinned beneath her, his flesh nestled deep inside her vent as his sheath rubbed against her softly-scaled lips. When Lily calmed down, she smiled at him and rested her snout against his, sharing heavy breaths.

His hands glided up her back before his arms wrapped around her and pulled her against him, her breasts mushing against his chest. He kissed her and she kissed him, expressing love and passion while they remained entwined at the hips.

After a tender moment, their muzzles parted and their eyes met.

"That was amazing, Lily," he said honestly, grinning. His eyes often glanced at her breasts and followed down her naked form before returning to hers.

Her warm smile melted his heart, filled and radiating with joy. "It certainly was. You're the first guy that's let me take charge," she said. "I mean... I haven't been with that many guys, but the ones I have been with have always been so... dominant. It's nice for a change."

A blush tinted his cheeks. "W-Well, you know me... I'm not very assertive."

She giggled and held him. "No, you're not, and I love that about you."

"And I love that you can be assertive."

Her smile bared more teeth as it widened. With a quick kiss on the lips, she hugged him and leaned against him, her head on his shoulder. They had cuddled together before, but this was the most intimate they had ever been. Kory continued smiling with a new feeling of elation brightening his day; she was his, and he was hers. He was no longer a virgin, and he was glad that he spent it with Lily.

"I love you," he said softly.

"Mmmmmm... I love you too," she answered. "When we get back to your place, we're going to do it some more."

Kory gulped, but he couldn't think of a single reason why not--he was eager for more! "S-Sure..."

...

"Shouldn't we get dressed?" he asked.

"Not yet. I want to stay like this for a while."

"Oh... okay."

And so they did. Several minutes later, they separated and put on their clothes. Taking one last look back, Koran saved a mental picture of one of the most beautiful places he had ever seen. Nature roamed freely around them, completely undisturbed by their presence. The waterfall's distant roar grew faint until he couldn't hear it any longer, replaced by birds and gusts of wind. His gaze turned to Lily, the most beautiful dragoness he had ever seen.

Luckily for him, Lily was an arm's-length away, and he could savor her for much longer and more often than a serene place like this. She was his world: all that he could ever want.

And he knew that she felt the same way about him. That's what made him truly happy.
