Sacrificial Bride

Horseback Riding [Mature]

The young man smiled, waved, and called out, “Shui, are you going to Meili town to collect water?”

“Yes. I suppose you are too. Do you want to ride with me?”, she asked. Shui was both naive and strangely bold for asking such a question. A man and a woman of their age should not be in close physical contact. Any rumor could taint a young woman’s reputation. However, Shui was never one to care about physical boundaries with men. She had grown up wrestling and sparring with this boy in particular. She felt no embarrassment asking what she figured was a sincere offer to help. 

“Sure, if you have any space in the cart for my barrels too”, he said. 

“Let me help you load those up then”, she responded. Shui happily helped her neighbor load the cart and climbed back onto her horse. The young man followed closely behind her. However, he was careful to not let their bodies touch and parked his hands on the saddle. 

He teasingly said, “If we were to wrestle on top of this horse, who do you think would win?”

She responded, “If you think you can climb to the front of this horse, then I’ll kowtow to you three times and call you big brother.” At that moment, he reached for her waist and twisted her to the left side. She swung her left elbow to hit his ribcage. He swiftly blocked the blow. She then raised her hand to swing at his face, forcing him to let go of her waist to block the punch. Shui was freed and fixed her posture on the horse. 

Jokingly, she slapped the young man’s leg and said, “Jin, be good. I don’t want to disturb Madam Ma.” 

Jin chuckled close to her ears and said, “yes, madam”. The feel of his breath made her blush and almost cry out in embarrassment. However, she swallowed her feelings. This young woman had too much pride to show that she was embarrassed. She thought to herself, “does he know what he’s doing to me?”. 

Jin became quiet and narrowed his vision on Shui’s figure. He looked at her beautiful black hair that was neatly tied in a bun, then down to her ears that showed a hint of redness. He gulped his saliva when his eyes reached her exposed neckline. He wanted to kiss her bare skin. Almost like he was put under a spell, he released his inhibitions and rested his chin on her shoulder. He could smell her sweet scent from this position. He was familiar with this smell, and felt lucky every time he was close enough to be reminded of it. Without thinking, he turned his face toward her neck and planted a kiss. 

Shui let out a restrained yelp and placed her hand on where she was kissed. She turned to look at him but quickly turned around again. She was shocked. It was the first kiss she had received from a man. She couldn’t look at him in the eyes. Her shoulders were slightly trembling. With a shaky voice, she asked him aloud, “Jin, do you know what you’re doing to me?”

Jin responded, “Shui, do you know what you’re doing to me?”, he emphasized. Jin let Shui soak in that comment for a while before he decided to advance further. He moved his hips closer to her on the saddle. Shui could feel something different about this riding experience. There was something protruding in his lower half. Poor Shui had never been educated about the differences between male and female. 

She blatantly asked him, “can you please move your canteen? I can feel it pressing on me.”

Jin leaned forward and played with the baby hairs on Shui’s neck. He replied closely to her ears, “Shui, that is not a canteen.” He again let her take a moment to soak in his comment before he continued to say, “it is the only part of my body that you have not seen. It grows when it is excited. Have you never noticed this before?” 

Shui had a sudden realization. She’s seen this happen when her livestock mated. She blushed and wanted to turn around to see the outline of Jin’s member. However, she decided it was better to stay focused on the road. Besides, she didn’t want him to see her flaming red face. 

Jin continued to look at Shui’s neck. He wanted to test his luck again and planted another soft kiss on her skin. He asked, “can I keep kissing you?”

Shui did not respond. The usually brass girl was speechless. She’s unprepared for this kind of development. Her heart was excited and her lips quivered. She meekly answered, “yes.”

Jin’s eyes widened. “She’s accepting me!”, he thought. This was a joyous event for Jin, as he had been in love with this girl since their childhood days. He began to give her more and more kisses on her neck. His kisses became harder, more passionate, and lasted longer on her skin as time went on. Shui told him that he’s tickling her, so he stopped to give her a moment. He then told her to get ready for the last kiss. He pressed his lips hard against her bare skin and opened his mouth. His tongue slid out and licked her softly in a circular motion. Shui gave out a restrained yelp and moved away from him. 

“Jin, that’s too much!”, she exclaimed.

Jin smiled and said, “it’s so you don’t forget me.”

Shui scoffed but thought to herself, “how would I ever forget you?”

Jin looked at her waist and wanted to hold her. He then asked, “Could I come closer?”

Shui thought for a moment and finally said, “Jin, if it satisfies you, you can come closer.” Jin moved in and rested his whole upper body against Shui’s back. He wrapped both arms around her and breathed on the wet spot he left on her neck. Shui felt his member becoming much stiffer than before. With the bumpy road and the up and down movement atop a horse, their closeness resembled an activity that’s been deeply desired within Jin for many years. For Shui, this was a new awakening. She had been ignorant about the boundaries between men and women. Now, she understood what her body can do in response to this kind of contact. Her bottom was feeling warm and she could sense a pulse shooting down to her female member whenever the rocky road forced her against Jin’s male member. 

Shui swallowed her saliva and before saying, “we should keep a distance once we get near town.” 

Jin replied, “So you do have some sense about this.” and laughed.
