surprised to see her cheeks turning red. “After all we’ve done
together, you’re still shy around me?”
    I can’t help it. You overwhelm me.
    I picked her up carefully and took her into
the bathroom. I held her while the tub filled, cradling her in my
lap. When I eased her into the water she sighed with relief. I let
her sit in there until the scars were faded and almost gone, and
there was just a faint bruise where the rocks had hit her. I leaned
forward over the edge of the tub to get her out. She was dry in
moments of the air hitting her skin.
    I left her naked, covering her fully with
the covers and I stayed clothed but slipped in behind her. She
stirred against me.
    “ Are you alright?” I asked
worried that the water hadn’t healed her enough.
    “ I feel better, but I need
more than water.” Her voice was even, her tone low and
unintentionally dripping with sexiness.
    “ I’ll make love to you if
you want me to,” I offered, trying not to sound as eager as I felt.
I’d wanted her from the first day we met, but the feelings I had
for her were deeper than that and I need more from her than just
her body and I had wanted to wait until she felt the same way about
me. I hadn’t wanted to rush her. I also wanted her to choose me.
    I could have had her in
the Caves but it was too soon. I could feel that she was still
overwhelmed by our connection. It was so complicated being reborn
into Second-Plane. Sex was an emotional need, but also physical.
Back on earth you didn’t crave another person like this. You didn’t
need to satisfy this kind of sexual hunger. But at the same time,
it was similar to love making on Earth was like. She was my Venku,
my soul mate. I wanted to please her.
    Let me try, I thought to her.
    She didn’t say anything but she didn’t move
away either. I slowly took off my body suit and then placed my hand
on her waist. I didn’t want to scare her and I knew the passion
between us was intense. It would only increase as we got physical
with each other and that was disarming to me too, but my need for
her overrode my fears.
    Leaning forward, I kissed the path from her
shoulder up to her neck. The energy flared between us.
    “ I’ll go slowly,” I
promised, my breath stroking he neck in hot waves.
    “ Alright,” she said. Her
eyes were closed.
    “ Tell me if it’s too
much,” I told her. With my left hand on her waist, I wrapped my
other arm around her body and cupped her breast from behind. I
thumbed her nipple as I kissed her shoulder. I was already hard,
and she moaned, instinctively moving against me.
    More? I thought to her. I could feel her body healing against mine.
We created so much energy between, that just foreplay was enough to
finish healing her injuries, but this was more than reviving her
body now, and I was willing to go as far as she was.

 
     
     
     
    13: SARIAH

    My body was on fire. I was scared of how
much I wanted him. My mind felt completely over stimulated. I
couldn’t process the way he made me feel. I felt out of control but
I at the same time I knew he was right there. I could trust him. I
could let him take control. I gave in to myself.
    I need more.
    He moaned, biting the back of my shoulder
passionately.
    “ If it’s too much, tell me
and I’ll take it back to where you’re comfortable,” he
promised.
    He pulled me towards him, his arm tightening
around my waist like an anchor. His other hand dragged lazily down
the length of my thigh.
    “ You skin feels like
silk,” he said in a low voice.
    I felt his left hand drag back up and over
to my sex. My thighs spread in anticipation and he didn’t make me
wait. One, then two, fingers slid over me, glazing me in a firm but
gentle arousing touch before finally dipping into me.
    My world burst into technicolor. I pushed
back on him as his hand moved, moaning in a way I didn’t even know
I knew how.
    “ Too much,” he said into
my ear.
    Gutturally groaning back was all I could
manage for a
