Seven Deadly Sins one-shot.

Set after the big fight with Hendrickson.

The fight was over. The day, the city, the kingdom was saved. The holy knights had all dispersed to recuperate, drink, relax, spend time with loved ones. Elizabeth's family had retired to the castle but she had been allowed to return to the Boar's Hat to celebrate with the Seven Deadly Sins.

The comrades were all gathered outside, situated around a crackling fire. Ban sprawled against a tree watching Hawk devour a huge mountain of scraps Ban had just prepared for him. "Hey little master, slow down there. We just got you back. Can't have you choking to death now after you saved the day and all.""But it's just so good!" Mumbled the little pig through his mouthful.

Diane and King were together to one side of the fire. Diane sat upon the ground with a barrel of ale in her hand and King lounged on Chastiefol in pillow form in front of her so they could easily converse. They were quietly laughing and King was flushing a bright red every so often.

Merlin sat beside Gowther on a log, close enough to observe the interaction between Diane and King but not so close as to intrude. "Is Diane making King blush on purpose?" Gowther asked Merlin curiously. "I believe so", came the answer. "Their relationship is changing. Diane has come to realize how special she is to King... And how special he is to her."

Gowther pushed his glasses up his nose and regarded the giantess and the fairy King closely. "I feel I would learn a lot from the development" he stated. "Perhaps you could" responded Merlin quietly.

Meliodas was reclined on a picnic table located between the tavern door and the fire. His back was to the table, legs spread wide, arms stretched out along the table top and head leaned back. His eyes were closed and his breathing even.

Elizabeth exited the tavern carrying a tray full of fresh ale. She offered one each to Merlin and Gowther then gave the remainder to Ban. "Please go easy on the drink Sir Ban." She said in her gentle voice. "Hawk isn't big enough to carry you to bed anymore." Elizabeth smiled widely at him. Ban threw his head back and let out a deep belly laugh. "Sure thing Princess", he said before gulping down the rest of his ale and pulling another mug towards him.

Elizabeth shook her head at Ban then turned and walked towards Meliodas. She set the tray on the table and sat next to him rigidly with her hands in her lap. A smile slowly spread over his face. "Elizabeth" he greeted. "Sir Meliodas" her soft voice replied.

They were silent for a time. It was a warm night with a rare cool breeze. Meliodas opened one eye and watched her hair waft in a gentle gust of wind. He waited ppatiently.

The princess shivered slightly. Meliodas jumped at once to his feet. "Are you all right Elizabeth?" Elizabeth startled, a little surprised by the question. "Yes, of course! I should be asking if you are all right after today!... Are you?" She looks up wide eyed at him standing before her. She shivers once again.

Meliodas strides off. "W..." Elizabeth begins to call out after him. Almost immediately he returns and throws a blanket around the princess' shoulders. Elizabeth smiles at him. "Sir Meliodas... Thank you." "No problem." Meliodas sits next to her again.

After a short time once again sitting in silence Elizabeth draws in a deep breath and, staring at her hands folded in her lap, says in a low voice "Sir Meliodas... Would you take a walk with me?" "Now?""Yes. I... I'd like to look at the stars..." Her voice trailed off. She raised her face and turned to look at him. Meliodas beamed at her. "Sure."

The captain of the Seven Deadly Sins jumped to his feet and offered his hand to the princess. Elizabeth put her hand in his and stood. Meliodas quickly slipped his other hand round to cup her bottom. Elizabeth's eyes widened and she gasped. "Sir Meliodas" she squeaked out in a small protest. He grinned at her. "Shall we?"

He linked her arm in his and began to stroll away from the tavern. Elizabeth is silent and studies her feet as they walk. She is surprised when Meliodas halts by her side. "What do you think about here? A good place to look at the stars right?"

The princess looks around her. They had passed through a thicket of trees and brushes and stopped in a clearing. The clearing touches the edge of a cliff, offering a wide open view of the sky and, far below, fields and houses. She smiled. "Perfect."

Elizabeth took the blanket from around her shoulders, spread it over a patch of soft grass and sat. "Come, sit with me." She patted the blanket next to her and smiled shyly up at the captain. He gave her a queer look but sat beside her. "Are you sure you're all right?" He asked. "It was a big day after all."

"Oh Sir Meliodas" Elizabeth cried out softly. A tear escaped her eye and slid slowly down her cheek. She turned to look at him. "I thought I had lost you today! I don't know what I would have done if you had died!" She let out a sob and lowered her head. Meliodas raised a hand to her chin and pulled her face back up to look at him.

"Hey" he smiled at her. "But you didn't. I'm still here." Elizabeth drew in a ragged breath and exhaled. "Sir Meliodas..." Her hands tightened into fists as her resolve steeled. "Would... Would you... Make love with me?"

Meliodas released her face and sat back in surprise. "What?!" He asked in disbelief.

"Being a princess I've lived a very sheltered life," Elizabeth began. "I know I'm naive and have no experience. I have no skills, nothing to offer you but today has put things into perspective for me. I know what is important now and this is something I want to do. With you." She looked earnestly into Meliodas' eyes.

"Elizabeth... I..." Meliodas looked conflicted. He gazed at her in wonder. "And you want to... Make love... With me?"

"Yes!"

"Do you realize what you're asking? You're a princess of the realm! There must be marriage and... And you can't do it before! I'd be considered a traitor for daring to think such a thing. Plus it's such a gift to give. I couldn't take that from you!"

More tears started to fall silently from the princess' eyes. "I understand if you don't want me. I should never have put you in this position, I'm sorry for asking..." Her voice trailed off and she looked away.

"Hey, I never said I didn't want to." Elizabeth turned to face him, hope on her face. "I just need to know you've thought this through."

Elizabeth locked her eyes onto his, smiled and nodded. Meliodas smiled in return and moved his head ever so slowly closer to hers. "Just so long as you're sure. If you want to stop at any point, just say the word."

The princess moved her head back a fraction. "Wait... Now? Here?" She looked about her in surprise. "If you're serious, why not here and now?" Meliodas gave a small shrug of his shoulders. "If you're having doubts we can go back to the others." He leant his weight on one arm and made as if to stand.

"Now," Elizabeth breathed and moved closer to him. Her hands came up to cup the sides of his face and pulled his lips on to hers. Meliodas slid his arm around her back and lowered her gently to the blanket, his body covering hers, his lips gently moving, never breaking the kiss.

Elizabeth's eyes closed and her mouth opened slightly in an effort to pull in a breath without letting go of Meliodas. The captain took advantage and slipped his tongue gently into her mouth. He caressed her tongue with his. Elizabeth opened her eyes and Meliodas smiled behind the kiss. "You've really never even kissed before?" He murmured. Elizabeth blushed while taking advantage of the break to get her breath back. Meliodas smiled. "Don't worry, I like it." He captured her soft lips again with his.

Elizabeth was ready this time and willingly opened her mouth to him, accepting his tongue eagerly and copying the movements he made. She ran her hands over his back. Meliodas responded by kissing her more fiercely.

He took his hand and ran it gently over her stomach and up to her breast. He cupped her breast and slowly massaged it. The fabric of her clothing rubbing over her nipples aroused her further. She broke away from his kiss and gasped, "Oh Sir Meliodas".

Meliodas took advantage of his freedom to mouth her other breast. Elizabeth gasped once more and arched her back, pushing her breasts further into his palm and mouth. Meliodas grinned, enjoying the power he had over her. He shifted slightly so he was supporting his own weight without crushing her but had the use of his hands. He slipped his free hand up her flat stomach and to the buttons of her top. He popped them slowly, one by one. As the skin was exposed he released her breasts and moved his head further down her body. He kissed her smooth skin as it was exposed. Nipping and licking with teeth, tongue and lips, Elizabeth writhed beneath him.

"Don't fight it Elizabeth. Don't think, lose yourself in the sensations. I'm not going to hurt you", Meliodas murmured to her, unsure if she had heard but wanting to help guide and reassure her. He finally exposed her breasts and took a moment to look. To drink his fill of the breasts he had wanted to see since the first moment he had lain eyes on her. "Perfect. I knew they would be."

Elizabeth had regained some of her senses as Meliodas stopped plying her body with sensations to look at her. Panting, her breasts heaving, enthralling Meliodas all the more, she sat up. She reached out tentatively and laid her hand on Meliodas' chest. He dragged his eyes upwards, seeing how she was biting her bottom lip before looking to her eyes and seeing the surety there.

He smiled encouragingly at her. Elizabeth moved her hands to the buttons of his vest and opened them one by one. After his vest she moved on to the buttons of his shirt. Once they were open she pushed them aside and ran her hands over the muscles of his stomach and chest.

Meliodas sat back and removed his upper clothing. Elizabeth did the same with her top and necktie. Meliodas regarded her hungrily. His emerald eyes darkened imperceptibly. He leaned towards her and, using his body, pushed her back down on the blanket. He kissed her mouth lightly and then trailed kisses and gentle nips down her neck towards her breasts. He sucked a nipple into his warm mouth. Elizabeth moaned involuntarily. Meliodas swirled his tongue around the nipple and released it. He watched it harden in the night air then turned his attention to the other. He repeated his actions with this breast and brought his hand up to enclose the first. He rolled the nipple between his thumb and forefinger and lightly massaged the full breast. Elizabeth's head lolled back, her mouth was open and she was releasing a multitude of small moans and gasps.

Meliodas moved further down her body and began licking, kissing and nipping Elizabeth's stomach once again. When he reached the top of her skirt he moved his hand to her leg and begin trailing his fingers up and down. He lifted his head and watched her. She was lost in the sensations. She looked so beautiful with the light from the stars and moon reflecting from her silver hair.

He mentally shook himself, reminding himself what they were doing here. "Elizabeth," he whispered. "Are you still sure? It's not too late. We can still stop, no harm done."

"Oh Sir Meliodas. It was too late the day I fell in the tavern door and you were so kind to me." Elizabeth smiled at him and sat up. She reached out and pushed his chest gently. Meliodas understood the hint and lay on his back, his head whirling from what she had just said. He was pulled into focus by her soft voice. "Just relax Sir Meliodas. Don't think. I'm not going to hurt you." He smiled at the echo of his words and let himself relax and his mind go blank.

Elizabeth studied him. His toned, muscled body begging her to touch it. She did so. Hesitantly running a hand lightly over his stomach, tracing his muscles with her fingers. Meliodas let out a small moan. Her hesitant fingers driving him crazy with lust. The moan lent Elizabeth confidence and spurred her on. She bent over him and started tracing his muscles with her tongue. Meliodas gasped as she grazed a nipple with her teeth, her warm breath tantalising and teasing as she moved.

As she reached over him to take his nipple in her mouth he felt her nipples gently scrape his side. He moaned once again and moved an arm to recapture her. Elizabeth felt the movement and intercepted him. "Ah ah aah Sir Meliodas. Stay still please." Meliodas sighed but acquiesced, his arm returning to his side. Elizabeth's hands now wandered back down his stomach and reached his trousers. She deftly undid the fastenings before he could react.

"A little help please", she indicated his trousers. Meliodas kicked his boots off before shifting his hips and pushing his trousers down and then off. As he laid back down Elizabeth gasped. "You ok Elizabeth?" Meliodas asked. "Yes" she whispered. "I've just never see a... A penis before". Her eyes were wide and curious. Meliodas grinned. "Go ahead. Have a look. It won't bite." He raised his hands to support his head so he could study the princess and her reactions.

Elizabeth moved her face closer to Meliodas' shaft in order to study it. He felt her warm breath waft over him and his penis twitched. "Oh!" She gasped. Meliodas grinned. Elizabeth reached out with a finger and stroked his shaft. Smooth and hard yet soft all at once. She noticed a bead of liquid sitting on the top of his penis and before she stopped to think, her tongue darted out and licked it. Meliodas groaned loudly. Elizabeth grinned. She liked the feeling of power, of control, the action gave her. She moved in closer and opened her mouth. She gently sucked the head into her mouth and Meliodas' entire body twitched beside her. "Elizabeth! You don't have to..." Meliodas groaned out but his voice died as the suction increased and ebbed and he felt her tongue flicking, licking, exploring. "Oh goddess!" He almost yelled.

Elizabeth stopped and sat up in alarm. "Sir Meliodas! Did I hurt you? I'm so sorry!" Meliodas sat up quickly to reassure her. "No, I'm not hurt. It's just it felt so good. Too good." He smiled at her and she slowly smiled back. Before she could recover and try to return to her previous activity he raised a hand and moved a strand of her hair out of her face. "How about we continue with you."

He moved his lips on to hers again. She readily complying as he moved her to lie down once more. Meliodas sat once more upright and reached for Elizabeth's foot. He pulled her shoe off and kissed the sole of her foot. He massaged her foot and stroked her ankle before reaching for the other. Meliodas once again pulled her shoe off and kissed her sole. This time he stroked his way up her leg and after reaching Elizabeth's thigh, began to roll her stocking down, all the while planting kisses slowly on her smooth leg. After pulling the stocking off he retraced his path, kissing up her leg.

Meliodas deftly pulled Elizabeth's skirt off and tossed it away. She was now naked accept for her panties. He looked her over slowly, devouring her body, trying to memorise it. "Are you sure?" He asked her once again. Elizabeth smiled at him. "Yes" she said with confidence then pulled her lower lip into her mouth. Meliodas was reassured and gave his attention once more to Elizabeth's breasts. He alternated between massaging then with his hand, playing with her nipples with his fingers and sucking and nipping at them with his mouth. Elizabeth began whimpering and then moaning as he continued.

"That's it. Relax and let go for me" he encouraged. "Don't think, just feel." He glided a hand slowly over her flat stomach and down to her panties. He slipped his hand under the cloth and palmed her mound. "Oh Elizabeth," he moaned around a mouthful of breast. "Already so wet!"

He kissed his way down her body, eager to get to her center. With one quick, smooth motion, her panties were gone. Meliodas gently pushed open Elizabeth's legs and knelt between them. He ran a finger the length of her slit, marveling at the wetness reflecting the moonlight. He retraced the line his finger made with his tongue and exhaled forcefully. Elizabeth groaned, lost in the moment, not quite sure what was happening anymore but reveling in the feelings Meliodas produced in her.

The captain gently opened her lips with his hands and gently pressed his tongue to her nub of pleasure. Elizabeth writhed underneath him. He began alternating between flicking his tongue lightly and blowing on her gently. Elizabeth's moans increased and Meliodas looked up at her. Her face and chest were flushed and he smiled. He returned to his work, a little more firmly and slid a finger inside of her. Elizabeth broke. Her moans increased in volume and the walls of her heat pulsed around his finger. He slowly began to work his finger in and out, his tongue flicking back and forth, up and down, now licking, now sucking, riding out the pleasure waves with her. Her body arched off the floor and Meliodas went with it. As her moans began to lesson and the contractions came less frequently, Meliodas raised his head to watch her. He added another finger to her heat and continued to stroke in and out.

"You are truly beautiful Elizabeth," he murmured. Elizabeth smiled and hummed at him. "Are you sure you want to continue? There will be pain... and it's not too late. You can still be a virgin for your wedding night."

"Oh Sir Meliodas. Still trying to protect me." Elizabeth breathlessly managed to say. "I wouldn't have this any other way. We can do anything together." "As you wish," Meliodas acquiesced, "but remember, say the word and I'll stop". Reminding her that she had the power.

He removed his hand from her center and stroked his shaft, coating himself in her juices. He positioned himself at her entrance and began pushing slowly. "Just relax Elizabeth. It will be easier if you relax." He ended in a groan as the head of his shaft was enveloped in warmth. He pressed further. And still further. Elizabeth let out a sharp cry. Meliodas stopped moving and gave her time to adjust. Once he felt her relax he thrust firmly in one long stroke until he was buried in her completely. Elizabeth cried out once more and trembled slightly. Meliodas gathered her up in his arms and easily maneuvered them both until he was sitting up with his legs stretched before him and hers to either side of him, still joined.

"Hey Elizabeth," he whispered to her. Elizabeth opened her eyes and instead of speaking, kissed him vehemently. Meliodas was taken by surprise but matched her passion. She began rocking in his lap, moving her hips back and forth and making small circles. Meliodas moaned into her mouth. "You drive me crazy!" He managed to gasp out.

Elizabeth leaned back and looked him in the eye. "Do it." She commanded. "Make love to me!"

Meliodas groaned. He grasped her buttocks with his hands and began lifting her up and plunging her down, almost emptying her and then filling her completely. She was so tight, so hot, still so wet. He picked the princess up and maneuvered them so she was once again on her back on the blanket and his body covered hers. His thumb found her pleasure center and rubbed in circles. He watched her through a haze. Her face and chest were flushing, her moans increasing, the walls of her core tightening. As she fell over the edge of her climax, Meliodas let out a roar and joined her, holding her hips close to his own, keeping them joined. Feeling the after spasms wash over both of them.

As she quieted and they both relaxed, he rested his body on top of hers. Elizabeth snuggled into him, enjoying the still full feeling she felt. There was a slight pain and she would be sore in the morning but it was worth it,

knowing the cause.

Meliodas kissed the princess' throat and sucked her earlobe. Elizabeth giggled. "Sir Meliodas, you want more so soon?" She asked him innocently. He raised his body and smiled down at her. He tucked a strand of stray silver hair behind her ear. "Always." He smiled devilishly back at her. "But I think you may need some time to recover. I wasn't as gentle with you as I should have been." He planted a soft kiss on her lips and raised himself off her. Elizabeth inwardly sighed at the separation and outwardly gave a yawn.

"Come. We should get back. It's been a long day and you need some sleep." Meliodas started to pull his clothes on. Elizabeth quickly pulled her clothes on and then wrapped herself in the blanket. She sat on the grass and stared out over the cliff at the stars. "No matter what tomorrow may bring, I'm glad we did this." She said softly, stifling another yawn. Meliodas scooped her up in his arms, blanket and all, and as her head lolled on his shoulder and her eyes drifted close, he whispered "so am I."
