Loneliness Ebbs Deep

by Rachael Orman

  Kaya swam through the water, wrapping her tentacles around Helki's legs. Her stomach burbled with excitement as she hoped Helki had something new planned. She made sure to pay attention each time Helki showed her something new, especially anything with her new body that filled her with wonderful sensations. Kaya climbed up Helki's legs until she was mostly out of the water, waiting for her lover to explain.

  "I want to make love like this. One day I will no longer be here, and you will take a new lover. There are pleasures to be found in the human body we can't experience in our natural state." Helki spoke to Kaya as she tenderly ran a hand over Kaya's bulbous head. Kaya swallowed the wave of sadness that overcame her and stared up at her lover.

  Sinking to her knees, Helki moaned when Kaya instinctively moved a tentacle between her thighs. Another tentacle wrapped around Helki's back, holding her firmly as Kaya slipped sensually against Helki. Even from barely touching and massaging Helki between her legs, she was moaning loudly.

  Kaya replaced the tentacle with her notched head, sliding it back and forth along Helki's core. Wrapping her tentacles around each of Helki's legs, she used the new found strength to move Helki's body with the waves in the water she was creating as her own desire grew. Kaya didn't know how she created the waves, but she used them to move Helki against her own body.

  Helki threw back her head as her orgasm grew closer. A scream escaped her throat as the pleasure soared through her and her body was dragged under the growing waves. Kaya continued to rub gentle against Helki, slowing her movements until the ripples in the water matched her speed.

  Kaya twisted around and ran the tip of one tentacle through Helki's folds. Everything felt different in this form. Helki's body was soft, but Kaya couldn't feel her skin as well as if she'd had fingertips. To feel pleasure, Kaya needed to use more pressure, harder rubbing. She purposely kept her touch gentle on Helki, remembering how sore she'd been after their time together.

  Helki reached down and slid her hand along Kaya's ridges, scratching lightly. As she recovered from her own pleasure, Helki stood again and reached out a hand to pull Kaya's form to her.

  "Calm, ma petite. The waves are an extension of your desire. I will take care of you, but you don't want to make the water rough or I won't be able to hold this form." Helki gently dragged her hand over the tentacle Kaya wrapped around her waist.

  "I will try," Kaya shyly said. Heat raced through her body as embarrassment thread through her.

  "Do not be embarrassed. Be delighted you can express such pleasure." Helki curved a finger around Kaya's tentacle and smile down at her lover. "I want to taste you," she whispered.

  A shiver ran through Kaya, starting at the top of her head and going into each of her tentacles. She shuddered as it moved through her. Her heart rate picked up as she climbed Helki's prone form. Kaya made her way to Helki's chin and hesitated. Helki's hand on her back guided her into position. Kaya spread her tentacles out, two wrapped under Helki's arms to keep her in position. Helki's eyes glinted with delight as she licked her lips.

  "I wonder if you taste sweet."

  Kaya didn't get a chance to wonder. Helki's tongue flicked over her opening. Kaya groaned, and she knew her voice echoed in Helki's mind. Her body tensed before relaxing, and she tried to open herself as much as possible.

  Kaya slipped one tentacle down Helki's body to steady herself and to give Helki just as much pleasure as she was receiving. Helki halted her movements, pulling back slightly until Kaya was in her full sight. She shook her head and laughed, moving right back in to circle her tongue around Kaya's opening.

  The touch was softer than what Kaya had anticipated, but it still gave her just as much pleasure as she needed. It took longer than she'd thought it should. Helki smacked her lips together before scraping her teeth against Kaya's tough skin.

  Kaya sighed. She pulsed her tentacles up and down against Helki's body, making sure to keep her grip. She lost sight of whatever Helki was doing to her body. She was only feeling and focusing on that feeling. She'd given her whole life she'd known to be here, and it was perfect. Kaya curved a tentacle down Helki's body, twisting one around her breasts.

  Helki gasped when Kaya bent her tentacle over Helki's nipple. Kaya was absorbed in Helki's manipulations of her body, but she wanted to give as much back as she could. Kaya continued to massage Helki's body, touching her in every way she knew made her lover feel bewitched.

  Kaya breathed and dipped a tentacle down into the water. She would need to submerge herself soon. Her body was drying and aching, but she couldn't bring herself to move. Helki must have sensed something was wrong, because she dipped down into the water until Kaya was mostly covered. She continued to suck and scrape her teeth along Kaya's opening.

  Once in the water, Kaya felt power and pleasure surge through her. She was so connected to it, connected to everything it touched. She slipped a tentacle between Helki's legs and ran the tip of it over Helki's bundle of nerves. Helki drew in a deep breath and stumbled in her movements. Kaya saw the moment as a victory; she'd successfully distracted Helki. She moved her tentacle faster and faster, back and forth. Helki threw her head back and drew in a deep breath of air, her hair waving in the gentle breeze behind her. The ripples in the lake increased and covered Helki to her chin.

  Kaya wrapped a tentacle around the back of Helki's head and pressed her mouth back to her body. She wasn't finished yet, and she wanted to. Helki continued to taste her, swirling her tongue and nipping on occasion. Kaya gasped. Pleasure burbled up and grasped hold, tightly keeping her in place. She was having trouble breathing as it continued to consume her.

  When she came to, her head spun and she breathed hard. Helki stroked her gently with tentacles, back in her natural state. Helki made comforting noises as they floated in the water. Kaya relaxed, rubbing her bulbous head against Helki's and snuggling with the creature. This was perfect; it was exactly how she wanted it to be.

  "This won't last forever," Helki said.

  Kaya tensed again, her heart rate increasing as the one topic she didn't want to talk about came up again. She knew Helki would not be there some day. A cycle would come and she would once again be alone—but it wouldn't be soon.

  "I know," Kaya responded. "And when the time comes, I'll find a new companion."

  Helki ran a gentle tentacle over Kaya's head and sighed. "Yes, yes you will."

  *~*~*

  Five hundred cycles passed...

  Kaya floated under the surface of the water, her tentacles spread out around her as she watched and waited. She'd been pulled to the surface, pulled to the edge of the Golden Lake like she had only once been pulled before. Ripples moved in the center of the water out toward the edges. Kaya hadn't felt the ripples in many cycles. She watched, tenuously waiting for whatever was coming.

  She was young. It was the first thought that ran through Kaya's mind. She'd been that young once. Swimming closer, Kaya watched as the dark skinned women kneeled down at the water's edge. She looked around herself before dipping her hand into the water and splashing. A smile bloomed on her face, and had Kaya been in her human form, she would have echoed it.

  The woman spread her legs, her body already glistening in the sun. Kaya stilled her form and watched carefully; she had never been that brave. The woman played with the thatch of ebony black hair between her legs, clearly hesitating before she took the plunge.

  Kaya silently encouraged the woman, her mind reaching out to hers until they touched. The ripples in the lake intensified, and Kaya backed off. She took a deep breath, bubbles rising to the surface, and she knew the time had come. She would no longer be alone. Dark fingers disappeared into dark skin, and Kaya released her pent up energy. She changed into her human form and rose out of the water.

  Walking toward the woman, water cascaded off her. Kaya knelt down on top of the water and stared at dark brown eyes. The woman in front of her froze, and Kaya said the only thing she could think of.

  "Don't stop."
