Before Sena turned back to face Salamacia, she undid her hair from its messy braid before working it back into a quick bun to keep it out of the way during their bath, knowing that the older woman was watching every movement.
"You tease," she heard Salamacia purr, and for some reason, that made her want to laugh. She slowly turned back to face the older woman. She was no stranger to bathing with other women, but was fully aware of just how... different this instance would be to all the others she'd had in the past. It wasn't hard to imagine what Salamacia might want to do, and that thought sent a pleasant, warm tingle through her core.
"I will be sure to get every inch of you clean," Salamacia said, her golden eyes glinting with open desire, a lecherous smirk on her full lips. Sena felt her cheeks warm further than they had already.
"Are you sure you won't be too distracted to complete that task?" she queried before she could stop herself.
Salamacia gave a mock gasp of surprise. "Do my ears deceive me? Are you looking forward to this?"
Sena blinked at that. Where had these words come from? Even though on their wedding night she'd lost the bet, and was now bound to the older woman as wife, it didn't mean that she would embrace the role. She had been determined to maintain a wall between her wife and herself. She had told herself that she would treat Salamacia with politeness and respect, just as any lady would give her lord husband. There were times where she would protest Salamacia's advances, such as on their first hike, and other times, she would dutifully submit to the dragon's desires.
As Sena stared at her partner, she was forced to realize that she hadn't merely come to tolerate the blonde's attentions, she was enjoying them, and even looked forward to such intimacy with anticipation.
Nonetheless, she was a stubborn woman, and old habits did not die so easily.
"I said no such thing!" Sena retorted.
"Such a shame. You should learn to be more open," Salamacia said, lightly tutting her as she bent down to remove her own pants and boots, tossing them to land near Sena's own discarded clothing. Her tunic remained where it was, but what was loose on Sena fit Salamacia well, outlining the curves of her breasts and hips. "Now, come and sit here so I may tend to you."
Sena obeyed, sitting down on the stool and glancing down at the mosaic tile floor. Pieces of tile in varying shades of red through yellow formed a stylized depiction of the sun, and with the terracotta walls that surrounded them, the sunlight infused the room with a warm glow.
Out of the corner of her eye, she watched as Salamacia knelt next to the bucket, and a faint red glow infused the blonde's hands as she channeled Fire magic into heat, causing steam to rise out of the bucket.
Folding a towel and placing it under her knees, Salamacia positioned herself behind Sena and dipped a sponge into the water, and the younger woman let out a soft sigh as she felt the hot water drip down her back before the sponge pressed against her skin.
"See, fire and water don't have to be antagonistic," she heard Salamacia whisper. It was hard to argue such a statement when she was being subjected to the pleasant sensation of a heat-filled sponge. She closed her eyes, letting her head loll forward as she succumbed to her wife's attentions. A small coo of pleasure escaped her throat as she felt the sponge press against the back and sides of her neck, washing away the sweat.
Both hand and sponge slid along her shoulders, and Sena couldn't remember having ever enjoyed a backwashing so much. A delicate shiver passed through her when she felt Salamacia's lips press against one shoulder and then the other after she'd cleaned them. She hadn't been washed since she was very young, and though it did feel a touch weird having someone else wash her when she was very well capable of doing it herself, there was no denying the pleasure in this.
Sena obliged Salamacia in every unspoken instruction, lifting her arms for washing, picking up her feet so that Salamacia could run the sponge over and under them and so on. When the sponge approached her breasts, she pulled her shoulders back to give her wife easier access, and blushed as Salamacia smirked at her knowingly.
"Fret not, I'll be sure to wash them nice and good," Salamacia whispered as she settled in front of Sena. Her free hand went to one breast, massaging it and rubbing a finger across its nipple, as she washed the other breast, working the sponge against it in slow, lazy circles. She closed her eyes.
Inevitably, her nipples hardened, and Sena noted that she didn't feel one single iota of embarrassment for her body's response to Salamacia's attentions. A soft intake of breath filled her longs when she felt Salamacia's lips wrap around her nipple, and she let her head loll forward as she opened her eyes, watching the blonde take enjoyment from the little nub.
Tentatively, she lifted her foot, sliding it between Salamacia's knees. The older woman didn't seem to notice, so she pushed her leg further. When she felt Salamacia's thighs against her foot, she continued, feeling the hem of the older woman's tunic against the top of her foot.
Salamacia had to know what she was doing, but she made no move to ward off the foot. Boldened by this, Sena slid up further, feeling the other woman's groin against the top of her foot. Salamacia moved her lips to the younger woman's other breast, now washing the breast she'd stopped sucking on. Sena picked up one hand and ran it along the blonde's thick, wavy hair, letting a few curls tangle in her fingers.
Her wife certainly was paying a lot of attention to her breasts, washing them longer than necessary... not that Sena was about to object, of course. Purposely, she pressed her foot against the cloth-covered flesh, hearing Salamacia give out a small groan. Encouraged by this, Sena started rubbing her foot up and down, feeling Salamacia stir in response.
The sponge slid down to her stomach, and Salamacia washed her there, rubbing the taut flesh in languid circles. Finally, the older woman slid away, and Sena was gratified to see that she'd actually made the other woman blush.
"There's one more part of you I need to wash, get up and keep your feet apart," she instructed. Without a moment's hesitation, Sena complied, hands on her knees, her feet in a stance a bit wider than her shoulders.

Salamacia did not miss how relaxed and compliant her wife had been through the entire session. Sena using her foot to tease her was a surprise but not unwelcome treat.
It would appear that swordplay is good for you in more ways than one, she mused as she dipped her sponge in the bucket, making sure the water was heated well enough before she pulled it out, squeezing it a bit before bringing it between Sena's thighs.
"Are you enjoying this, sweetling?" Salamacia asked with a purr as she gently swiped the sponge between the younger woman's legs.
