B does a few quick thrusts, and then lays down on top of me, trying to catch his breath. "Was it everything you thought it would be?" I tease him. B props his head up with his hand. "Better," he replies with a grin, nuzzles my nose with his, then kisses me softly on the lips.
B drops his head back into the crook of my neck and keeps his body on me and in me. B's weight doesn't bother me at all. He actually feels like a second layer of skin.
I forgot that we were in the middle of taking a hot shower, but the sound of the water falling onto the tiled floor is exceptionally soothing. I don't want to move!
"Neither do I," B murmurs into my neck. That was fast!
"What was?" B asks, propping up head again with his hand while looking down at me with a questionable expression.
'Hearing my thoughts. It took the others a long time except for G, who never was able to...' WAIT ONE FUCKING MINUTE!' I exclaim in my head.
"What's wrong, my wee one?" asks B, his expression changing to a concerned frown.
"When I train later with the others, I have a bone to pick with G. He was never able to hear my thoughts. But he heard them earlier today. I was too hurt and angry to realize it at the time. I wonder what changed?" The last question was directed more towards me.
"Ye will figure it out," B says with confidence I'm not currently feeling. "But until then, ye ready for round two?" B asks me, suggestively. I can feel him getting hard inside me.
"Think you can do a quickie?" I ask, hopefully.
B grins, knowing that I'm sore and probably couldn't handle any great lovemaking at this current moment. "I'll make it quick, my wee one. I promise," he says kindly and kisses me to seal the deal.
Chapter Nine: More Than Any Stupid Love…
One of the things I already love about B is that he's like Red. Always keeps a promise. After having our quickie where I only orgasmed twice. Trying not to be an overachiever here! We finished taking our shower.
B is noticing how tired I am from the day 's intense physical activities, decides to pick me up like a baby, and carries me to the bed. I let myself fall asleep in his arms, knowing that a nap will increase the speed in recharging my batteries.
Waking up from my nap, I feel fully energized and ready to train in different combative techniques with my other mates. My body is slightly sore, but after sleeping with the guys tonight, I should feel like new tomorrow. But first, I need to talk to G.
Reaching the frozen beach, I am wearing the typical combat outfit that I wore in the previous Circle when I was training with the guys. Still fucking cold out here, but I think I am starting to become used to the freezing temperature.
"I want to start with G," I tell B, letting him walk away to guys standing and waiting for their turn to train me. G walks over to me from the group, his eyes fixated on my face, never leaving my eyes.
"Guess you had a good date," G says nastily.
I just shake my head in bewilderment. "If I didn't know any better G, I would think that you were jealous. But that can't be right since you only care about me," I quip. I see G's face darkening and jaw moving back in forth, grinding his teeth. I sigh, exasperated with the whole G situation.
"G, I don't want to fight with you about whatever personal shit you've got going on. I realized earlier that you heard what I said about being an easy lay in my head. I am curious about how you were able to do that since you don't want to strengthen the bond between us. Or have any kind of emotional attachment to me whatsoever." I can see that what I am saying is making G angrier, but I need to know how he can hear me, but I can't hear his thoughts. "Any ideas on how you can hear my thoughts?" I ask.
G shrugs and shakes his head. "No fucking clue," G stated through gritted teeth.
"I think I may have a theory," I say politely. I'm not going to let G's temper goad me into another verbal altercation.
"You're the one who knows everything," G's tone is still demeaning and hostile. Just like the pissed-off facial expression he now has. "Go for it," G snarls.
"Okay," I say patiently and happily. I definitely love pushing all G's buttons at once. Because G looks like he wants to start sparing with our swords right now.
I continue speaking, ignoring G's extremely hostile demeanor towards me. "I think you can hear my thoughts because I've been open and honest with you. I have nothing to hide, no secrets. Probably why I can't hear your thoughts. Another probable reason is I, unfortunately, love your ungrateful ass, and you don't love me, making the telepathic bond only going one way. You have pretty much shut me out in all ways. That's my theory on the subject," I finish.
"Anything else, little girl?" G snarls.
"Yes!" I reply happily, still pushing his buttons. "I've decided we should only be friends until the time comes when I can destroy this stupid bond. And when I say "friends," I mean friends with no benefits. Think of it as a business partnership," I said as happily as I can.
G smirks at me and crosses his massive arms. I feel like somehow he's making fun of me. "Business partnership?" G says sarcastically. "When one partner loves the other partner, and she follows him around like a dog. But the partner will NEVER love her in return," G says with hatred. All pretenses are now washed away. I tried.
I nod my head in understanding. "G, I'm sorry you feel that way about me. But I am content with the love from my four OTHER mates," emphasizing the word other. "I am extremely sorry for whatever I have done to you and wish that you weren't part of this situation. You can wait around in this Circle until we have to leave. Otherwise, stay the fuck away from me," I state with finality as I turn my back to G.
"Sera..." G demands.
"FMC!" I yell. I hear my Hellhound bounding across the living room and somehow manages to get through the training door. She doesn't stop until she's directly in front of me, all three heads have their tongues sticking out, tail wagging playfully. "FMC, please keep G away from me," I command her.
She looks behind me, and the hair on her back raises up, all three of her lips curl up, bearing her razor-sharp teeth, and a deep growl emanates from her body. She looks like she' about to attack G. Seeing a Hellhound posturing to tear you apart would make anyone shit in their pants! I'm glad she's my Hellhound and no one else's.
I turn my attention to my other mates, all watching in silence. There are frowns on all their faces. I'm guessing that they don't understand why I had to resort to using my Hellhound to keep G away from me. Virgil, ever the diplomat, approaches me. "Sera, why does it look FMC is about to attack Gabriel?" he asks softly.
I give Virgil a sad smile. "Because all G wants from me is my hate and anger at him. Oh! And sex!" I snidely add. " I am tired of G trying to make me want to hate him. So to protect myself, I told G to stay the fuck away from me. And I've ordered FMC to keep him away from me. I need the bond to defeat The Void that is bent on destroying all life as we know it. Hopefully, it will be enough. Now," I am ready to discuss more important matters. "Who's going to train me in fighting and flying?" I ask the four of them.
Red steps forward, reaching behind his back to withdraw his red sword and unleashes his wings. 'Good,' I say quietly in my head. 'I still have a bone to pick with you about your comment earlier,' I inform Red. I see Red's Adam's apple bob up and down in fear. I reach behind me and grab Cal and simultaneously release my wings.
We both jump up into the air and fly up to a proper height. Red and I start attacking each other with our swords. Fighting for the supremacy of the surrounding area. I'm still weak at flying and fighting, and Red is taking full advantage of my weakness. I let my instincts take over for me to search for my inner peace. This causes me to shut out everyone and everything until I can feel that inner peace wash over me.
I suddenly feel a warm fire within me, growing stronger with each heartbeat. I now feel as if my body is fully engulfed in that fire, and I am aware of everything. I hear a collective gasp, and awareness hits me. I see Red looking at me in wonderment, and I look down at my mates to look at the expr
essions of awe on their faces. Even G, who decided to stick around, has an appearance of amazement.
Looking down at myself, I know that I am entirely covered in a fiery flame and that the fire is burning a very bright yellow. Holy shit!
Looking at Red, I ask pleadingly, "What's happening to me? Why am I on fire?" Red shakes his head.
"I don't know Sera," he replies. "But we will find out when we get to Heaven. For now, keep training and keep that flame going. I have a feeling that flame is meant to boost your powers."
Red looks down at the others on the ground. "Who's next?" he calls down.
Virgil steps forward. "I'm it," he says, looking up at me, giving me a flirtatious wink. I smile warmly back at him. "Stay up there, Sera," Virgil commands. "You need to learn how to hold a force field up while flying." Oh goodie!
Virgil smiles wickedly at me. Shit!
Virgil throws everything at me, including a fucking kitchen sink! I was able to hold a force field longer than I thought I could while staying up in the air and being on fire.
When Virgil could see that I was getting tired, he calls me down to the ground. He holds me close to him, letting me recharge my energy faster during my break time.
My next training session is with Raph. Using water energy when the temperature of the water is close to freezing makes it harder to create and manipulate the ocean of water in front of me. I didn't last as long as Raph liked, but I could see he's patient with me since it's my first day training at these temperatures.
During my break, I'm sitting in Raph's arms, discussing and sharing things about each other's cultures. I was always curious about ancient civilizations and what life was genuinely like back then.
I let Raph listen to the music on my iPod, watching the amusing expressions his handsome face makes with each song. 'What's your favorite song so far?' I ask Raph in my head.
'Definitely, like "Sloop John B." It reminds me of when I had to sail the seas to deliver my wine. But I always looked forward to cruising back home,' I hear Raph reply in my head. There's a dreamy expression of nostalgia on his handsome face.
Feeling giddy, I give Raph a kiss on the cheek. Raph smiles down at me, his beautiful golden eyes swirling with happiness. He then lowers his lips to mine, kissing me tenderly. I sigh into his kiss, letting him know how content I am in his arms.
When my break with Raph ends, I am somewhat recharged. I am now facing B. I am feeling enthusiastic about learning the power of the Earth element. Properly anyway.
I know B heard my statement in my head because I hear a quick chuckle escape from his lips before he puts on his "commander's" expression. B's trying to keep everything severe and grim. But I know it's all for a show because B's eyes are twinkling in amusement. 'I heard that Siiiiir!' I tease to B in my head.
B doesn't crack a grin, keeping his facial expression sober. I feel like being a little devilish because I cannot take things too seriously.
I mimic B's rigid posture and stern expression. 'I wonder if you'll be able to keep that serious expression while I'm sucking your cock and making you cum all over my face later?' I say "seriously" in my head.
B's eyes bulge out of his head and start to have a coughing fit. 'Is that a no?' I tease. B needs a few moments to regain his composure.
"We'll make this first lesson a very wee one. Ye and I have some unfinished business to attend to immediately after this," B grounds out. I also notice that B is adjusting himself in his pants. My poor mate.
B breaks his "commander's" look and gives me a frown. I give him a radiant smile in return. "Wiseass," he mutters.
I give B an innocent look and blink. 'Waiting on you,' I tell B in my head.
Ignoring my playful antics, B starts going through the basics of the Earth element. "The first thing I want ye to learn is how to control the earth. Once ye can control Earth, ye then can create it," B instructs.
My jaw drops in amazement. " Create earth? As in creating earth out of thin air?" I ask incredulously. B gives me a quick once over, making sure my question is genuine.
"You've made water from the air," B states matter of factly.
"Yes, because there's water in the air," I tell B. "And it was a bitch to create water from the air because there's not a lot of it," I finish.
"There's the earth in the air too," B says. "Much, much less than water, but it's there. That's why ye first need to learn the properties of earth and how to control them."
"B, how did you imprison the guys and FMC when we were in your office?" I inquire.
"I made the ground shake at such a rapid speed, it was preventing the guys from moving. Sort of like a magnet was created to keep them pinned down," B explains.
"Will you train me to do that also?" I ask excitedly.
"Yes, "B replies.
Taking a deep breath and slowly relaxing while I exhale, I say, "Okay, B. I'm ready. Tell me what I need to do."
"I want ye to make the earth roll. The rolling will start from ye and roll away from you. Ye will only do roll the earth in the direction you're facing. I want ye keep rolling the earth at a slow tempo until ye energy becomes low. Understand?" B asks me gently.
I nod my head in understanding, and I start focusing my energy on the ground. Feeling out, I note the different energy signatures on the ground. I begin differentiating the molecules I know from the new types of atoms I'm discovering.
I also notice that the molecules are interwoven and compact. Unlike water, where the bonded particles were loosely woven like a blanket, the earth molecules feel like beef jerky. Beef jerky at first is sturdy and rigid, but with enough pressure, you can make it bend. Bend too hard though, the jerky could snap and break. No breaking the jerky!
I hear the sputtering of someone trying to prevent their laughing in the background, but I'm too focused on my task to be distracted. I start breaking the bonds between the earth molecules, creating a little heat to give the "jerky" flexibility. Using more energy, I begin flexing the earth molecules nearest me.
Looking at the ground, I see little ripples beginning at my feet and moving forward, away from me. Using more energy, I make the ripples bigger in size, pushing out small waves further away from me. "Bigger," B commands. That's what she said.
There are more coughing and choking noises in the background, but I'm still focused on creating bigger waves. I'm using more energy now. Creating waves of rolling earth about a foot high. "Bigger," B pushes.
Gritting my teeth, I dig deep inside me and call for more energy. The waves are about five feet high, and I know that my strength is running out fast. I keep the rhythm of the rolling earth at this pace for at least ten minutes.
I feel dripping from my nose and stop the rolling earth. My low energy warning signal was just triggered. I quickly think a tissue, and I wipe away the blood. When I finish, I turn to B, unsure if my performance was way below his expectations.
Looking at B, all I see is pride on his face. "How was that?" I ask tentatively.
"Ye are much stronger and more powerful than I thought ye were my wee one," B's voice brimming with pride.
I smile happily at him. I walk shakily to where B's standing and give him a kiss on the cheek. "I'm completely drained. Want to help me re-energize?" I ask B flirtatiously.
B suddenly lifts me off my feet and quickly carries me back to the bedroom. Ain't I a lucky girl!
I'm not going to bore you with the details of what happened between B and me, but let's just say that I had a sore jaw afterward. I always keep my promises.
Speaking of promises. I must keep to FMC for carrying us up the endless flights of stairs to B's office when we first came to this Circle.
I spend a few hours scratching, rubbing, and brushing FMC while B watches us in amusement. Such a good puppy!
After FMC's reward, I take a long sweet dip in the jacuzzi tub. Letting myself fully relax against the water jets, having soft relaxing music playing in the background. I close my eyes for a second...
And I
feel as if I'm being carried, strong arms holding me close to a solid mass of muscle. From the smell of cinnamon, I know it is Red that is taking me. Feeling safe and secure, I let myself drift back to sleep.
The next time I wake up, I'm surrounded by four bodies. I feel G's energy signature, not in the immediate vicinity. Staying away from me as I wanted. I wish I knew what he truly wants from me.
I feel my stomach rumble. I frown, not being able to recall the last time I've eaten. I don't remember eating a single thing since coming to this Circle. What the hell?!
"What's wrong, baby?" Raph murmurs from behind me.
"I just realized that I haven't eaten anything since coming here. Now I'm suddenly feeling hungry, and I don't understand how I've missed eating food for days until now," I explain to Raph.
Red sits up and looks at me and turns his head quizzically. Examining me like I'm a phenomenon that needs studying. "What Red?" I ask, now feeling incredibly self-conscious.
"You're evolving. Turning into an Archangel. Us Archangel's and souls," Red referring to Virgil. "We only need to eat when our energy is very low on something."
I grimace, "Shit! I love eating! Especially a good fucking pizza."
Virgil snorts, "And don't we know it!" I roll my eyes at him, knowing what he's referring to. Thinking of pizza.
"One New York-style brick oven pizza is coming right up," I say happily and sit up. Using the headboard to support my back.
A pizza appears in front of me, hot and ready to eat. "Here we go," mutters Red.
"What is that heavenly aroma? B asks, sitting up. Forgetting my snarky reply to Red's comment, I think up a pizza, and a box appears in front of B.
"What is it?" B inquires, looking at the pizza box with uncertainty. I flip open the lid on my pizza box, and I let the steam hit me in the face. The best smell in the whole world!
B intimates my movements, but there is curiosity on his face. I lift a slice, and I see Virgil elbowing Raph in the ribs. "Bet you a solo turn with her that she will moan more with this one slice of pizza than she has moaned with any and all of us during sex," Virgil offers Raph.
