Sodrel's Massage (Jynx & Sodrel)

Jynx laughed. It wasn't a giggle. It wasn't a chortle. It wasn't a snicker. It was an open-mouthed laugh. “The oil contains a secret formula that causes women to fall madly and hopelessly in love with me.” He laughed again. His laugh had a melodic sing-song quality to it. “I am going to massage your upper chest, shoulders and neck now.”

He positioned himself at her head and folded the sheet down far enough to expose the area just above her breasts. He placed both hands on her upper chest with fingers pointing toward her feet. He was careful not to touch her breasts, although they were tempting. When he had a mistress, his animal instincts were somehow more subdued than they were now that he had been without one for a while. He pulled his hands up toward her shoulders, around to the back of the shoulders, to the neck and up the back of the neck to the base of the head.

“I really have nowhere else to go,” he said as he repeated the move several more times, coaxing the tension out of her pectoral muscles. “I am here now. Perhaps I will be here a year from now, perhaps not. I do not know what the future holds for me.” He tilted his head so that he was looking down into her eyes again. “But I am glad I met you, Sodrel Frostfawn.” He held her eyes for a moment and then looked away.

“I am going to give you what is called a facial swoop,” he said. “I am not making that up. That is what it is called.” He applied oil to her face in upward and outward strokes. Using both hands at the same time, he glided his fingertips from the chin to the jaws and slowly massaged the jaw joints in a circular motion. Then he glided his fingers over the eyebrows from the center to the temples, which he massaged in a circular motion. Finally his fingers slid down to the jaw joints which he pressed on with some pressure and then released. He repeated this several more times.

“Last technique,” he said. “To get the full effect, you have to close your eyes.” He lightly touched her forehead with the fingers of both hands, which he then brushed downward, slowly, almost feather-like, across her eyes, nose, lips, chin. Then her neck and chest, being careful to pass between her breasts but not to touch them. Then down across her rib cage, belly and pelvis. Finally down her legs to her toes. He repeated this twice more.

He waited until she opened her eyes. “We are done. You may get dressed now.” He turned and looked the other way. "What is an ice maiden?"

She found she liked the way his voice sounded when he talked to her. She listened to his answers, but she was half in and half out. Her body felt so good, she felt like she was floating. If she didn’t know she had to run off to the stables as soon as she was done, she probably would have slept the rest of the day away. As it was, she knew she was going to be lazy. The massage was over too soon. She was just starting to get comfortable.

She wrapped the sheet around her body and got up to get dressed while his head was turned.

“You don’t know what an Icemaiden is?” For a chime, she forgot where he was from. “Sorry, I guess you don’t.” She hesitated, hoping he wouldn't guess her age. He didn’t need to know how close she was to becoming one herself. “A girl who isn’t married by the time she’s twenty is considered hopeless. She becomes an Icemaiden. It's how we do things here.” She shrugged her shoulders and headed to off to the bathroom to put her clothes back on.

While she dressed, she thought about her time with Jynx. It had been relaxing and informative. Now she had the answers to plenty of the questions that might come up about him. She was glad she came. It had definitely been an experience.

She ducked out of the bathroom and handed him the sheet. “How much do I owe you for the massage?”

He still wasn't quite clear on what an “ice maiden” was but guessed it was roughly equivalent to the phrase “old maid” which he had encountered in Novallas. How could someone be an old maid at twenty years of age? He took the sheet back.

“Apparently you have a short memory,” he said. “I promised you a free massage and that is what you got. Next time we'll discuss whether or not it will cost you anything.”

He opened the cabin door and preceded her outside. Clouds were rolling in, bringing a cold wind and the beginnings of a snow storm.

“There is a storm coming. Would you like me to escort you home?”

“Okay then. If you're sure." She considered them beyond even for whatever small gesture she’d done for him. "Thanks again."

The temperature drop outside the cabin was steep compared to the warmth of the fire inside. She was afraid he’d freeze if he stayed outside in the coming storm. Morwen’s mark kept her from feeling the worst of the weather. If either of them was going to be outside in what was coming, she'd be the better off.

“I appreciate your offer to escort me home, but I’m fine to walk alone. This one doesn't look too bad.” She smiled one last time as she pulled up her hood, said goodbye and left in the direction of White Elk Stables.

When Sodrel reached her hold, had she looked up into the sky, she might have noticed a hawk circling just below the cloud cover, and had she listened she might have heard a long, descending kee-ree.
