“That sounds nice actually, the thought that we get another chance.” Tana said, a sad smile spreading over her face. “It won’t be so bad, living here. I’m going to miss some of the modern conveniences but there are definitely things here worth staying for. I’m not going into the great beyond anytime soon; I can assure you of that.”
Tana squeezed Kajika’s hand, hugged Mingan, and then bid him goodnight as he left. Kajika came to her and lay beside her, pulling her close to his body. The nights were cooling now, winter approached, and she was glad of his heat. She took his hand, kissing it before putting it back down on her stomach.
“Will you truly be happy here, my love?” Kajika often called her that but he’d never said he’d loved her.
“If I have you with me, Kajika, I don’t care where I am.” She replied sleepily but happily.
“I love you, Tana. And I have a confession to make.” He whispered into her hair.
Pushing aside her exhaustion, Tana sat up and faced him. “You love me?”
“I do. And I hope you’ll forgive me.” He said, looking down at his hands.
“Go on then. I can’t say unless I know what it is.” She replied.
“My wife did not run away, she went into the great beyond, she is gone forever now. She could not have children. She would become pregnant then the babes would either wither and die inside of her or would die when they were born. The misery of it finally got to her and she ended it. No matter what Mingan gave her or what we did to keep the babes healthy they always died and she just could not go on, even knowing that she had another life to live, one where she could have children.”
“How very horrible for you both! I cannot imagine how you’ve dealt with that. But it kind of explains your behaviour when I first came. It doesn’t excuse it but it does explain it.” Tana said, kissing his palm.
“No, it does not excuse it, not a bit. So, do you love me? Have you forgiven my behaviour?” He asked.
Tana gave him a wicked grin and said, “I don’t know, Mr. High and Mighty, should I love you?”
“Oh you should love me every day for the rest of this life and then some! I’m absolutely adorable don’t you know? And I know some tricks that you like.” He answered with his own cheeky grin.
“Do you now? Care to show me some of those tricks?” She asked huskily, moving her mouth to his.
“I’d love to,” he said as she moved to straddle him as he sat up. Their lips joined, the passion building quickly between them. They knew how to touch each other now, what brought the broken gasps that meant “don’t stop,” and what sent the other one into oblivion. They were going to kill each other if they weren’t careful!
Tana moved her hands over his chest as his tongue invaded her mouth, her fingers grasping at his nipples and pinching hard as he gasped. He bent his head forward, whispering to her as his lips slid down the side of her neck below her ear.
“Tease.”
“Oh, it’s not teasing darling if I carry through on my promises.” Tana responded, grinding her pussy into his hot, throbbing cock.
“I hope you aren’t going to make me wait tonight, I need to be inside of you now.” He whispered as his lips slid down the other side of her neck, making her squirm into him harder.
She moved then, taking his girth in her hand as she pulled her hips back. Slowly, oh so slowly, she allowed him to slide into her slick body, clenching and sucking him in with her muscles. She was hungry for him and only he could give her what she needed.
Taking her bottom in his hands, Kajika started to move her hips, guiding her into the first groans of the night. He was determined to make her sadness go away and this was the only way he could think of at the moment. He moved her there, scrunching down to take her nipple into his mouth, sucking hard to make the sensation jolt straight down into her groin. Tana gasped and held his head tight to her, now moving her hips on her own, finding her own rhythm as she leaned out, bracing her hand behind her so that she could move her hips without falling.
Tana whispered to Kajika as she rode him, telling him of her love for him, of how she wanted to spend an eternity with him and then ten eternities more. She gasped as she spoke, her climax close, her words running together, driving her on, until he reached between them, stroking her clit with a hard stroke of his thumb that sent her flying. Kajika smiled as she rode the pleasure, enjoying the serpentine movements of her supple body. As she came down he rolled her over, wanting to look into her eyes as he came inside of her body.
Tana watched him, his movements a display of his strength, a study in the miracle of the body. His arms braced behind her head flexed, the muscles standing out. His stomach was flat, hard muscle showing through to highlight his fitness. Kajika’s face was even strong, his jaw a hard line that clenched as the first waves rocked him. A man in the throes of passion was a powerful thing to watch, and Tana felt the response of her body as he emptied himself in her.
She let her head fall back as he calmed, staring up at him. “This is why I know I’ll be alright, Kajika. This. We don’t just have passion, it’s not just fucking that we do, it’s love. We share something beautiful and this is what makes this world worth being in. I won’t mourn my own death anymore, I’ll rejoice in my new life, with you, in the spirit world, where I belong.”
“You are right my love,” he replied as he nuzzled her neck once more, his passion for her still not quenched. “This is what makes life worth living. I just wish now I hadn’t wasted so much time in learning that.”
“We will never get that time back but we learned a lot from our first weeks. Besides, we have several lifetimes, don’t we? Maybe by the tenth one I’ll have tired of you and been able to get you out of my system.” She laughed as he tickled her ribs for that remark. “I couldn’t stop thinking about you, even when you were at your cruellest. I was drawn to you even though I told myself I was a million kinds of fool. I can’t say that I’m glad I died but if I hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here. There’s no denying this is where I’m meant to be. For now and always.” Tana reassured Kajika.
“Always, my love, always.” He replied, smiling down at her, the love he felt for her shining through even in the semi-darkness of their home. Her home.
