Dancing in the Darkness Page 8


  Gently, Kal lowered the shaking human to the soft cover and groaned when she carefully drew her cock free. With a huff, she rested half on the heavily breathing human and released pleased purrs, each one against Charlie's back.

  After several ticks, Charlie regained her senses even as the orgasm continued tingling low in her belly, and her skin still seared with whispers of passion. After a deep breath, she twisted her head toward Kal, who peered down at her and held her gaze. Under the soft light, Kal's eyes were cool, but after a heartbeat, Charlie saw something else deeper in them. Perhaps it was the echoes of a mortal Alpha that still lived under her godly skin. Maybe even Kal's forgotten name was stirring deep in her, a name that Charlie wished to know. Instinctively, she reached up and grazed a flushed cheek with her fingertips, as if she could reach the mortal buried under the god.

  Kal captured the smaller hand into her own, leaned down closer, and asked, "Will you leave now?"

  Kal's thick voice curled heavily around Charlie's heart, making a beat slur. She weighed the true depth of Kal's question and released a breath as her better senses lost the battle. A string coiled around Charlie's emotions, and she shakily whispered, "Joh."

  Kal wolfishly smiled and gave a pleased rumble, which caused the slickness to return between Charlie's legs. She snaked her arm around Charlie's waist and lifted them both until they were seated upright. Kal's lap was already damp from both sweat and slick.

  Charlie released a shaken breath before leaning back into Kal's sturdy frame. She realized that Kal was propped up by her outstretched arms, leaving her hands indisposed. A gentle nuzzle to Charlie's flushed cheeks silently encouraged her to take some control, which made her stomach twist. She dug her nails into Kal's muscular thighs, unsure of herself.

  Kal sat up, freeing her left hand and brushing light brown strands off Charlie's scarred shoulder. Again, she nuzzled Charlie but trailed her lips back, breathing into a soft ear. When Charlie shuddered against her, she growled and bit the earlobe under her tongue.

  Charlie clawed into muscles, but sharply her hand was forced away and brought to their joined laps. Their fingertips grazed the fine, moist hair between her legs, teasing her.

  "Kalmar are never slick here," Kal whispered and grazed her teeth along the outside of Charlie's ear. "Only in here." She guided two of their fingers between Charlie's warm folds and pushed against the entrance.

  Charlie panted and leaned against Kal, eyes heavy. She barely registered the tidbit of education about Omegas, but it was enough for her to look at Kal's profile. "Anything else different?"

  A low rumble started deep in Kal's throat, and she had a thoughtful expression. Gradually, their fingertips traveled up until they grazed Charlie's overly sensitive clit and sent a shock through her belly.

  "This bump. Omegas have nothing here."

  Charlie gasped and tried keeping some composure even if her body betrayed her. "Humans call it a clitoris or a clit," she explained, using old English terms. She clenched her lip between her teeth when Kal rubbed her thumb across her clit, testing both it and her. A pleased groan slipped from her, and she wanted Kal to keep touching her.

  Kal breathed deeply, close to Charlie's neck. All her attention was locked on the tantalizing space between Charlie's legs. Each time she inhaled again, a thicker and heavier rumble started in her chest. She moved her thumb gently across the hard bud and paused, taking in Charlie's moans and learning her needs.

  "Fuck," Charlie hissed after Kal's thumb rolled across her clit again. She withdrew her own hand and pressed it against the bed for support. The next caress encouraged her to spread her legs farther, past Kal's hips. Her unspoken invite seemed to evoke a pleased sound from Kal, and she dropped her head against a broad shoulder.

  Kal pulled her thumb up and down against the swollen bud, learning Charlie's reaction. A few times her finger slipped from all the wetness, and she stilled when Charlie shifted against her.

  With her right arm adjusted for better support, Charlie returned her other hand to her lap and reached for her own labia. With two fingers, she spread herself open in offer and gave her lover better access. She needed Kal to keep playing with her clit, and each time it made her insides clench harder.

  Kal purred into Charlie's ear and switched to her index finger, rubbing the wet and swollen bud. Even if the Alpha was new to Charlie's human sexual anatomy, she hastily learned what pushed Charlie closer to the edge.

  Charlie's urgency for an orgasm took control, and she gyrated her hips against Kal's own. She clenched her teeth and barked, "Push down more."

  Kal growled in return and applied firm pressure to Charlie's clit, shooting passion up Charlie's spine.

  "Faster," Charlie demanded and strained against Kal's hand, her own right hand twisting into the sheets. She opened her eyes and peered down at Kal's hand between her legs, working her so hard. Gradually, her attention trailed to Kal's cock, its glistening tip peeking back at her, and her walls suddenly clenched in need. "Fuck," she hissed just before the orgasm struck her. But she only screamed when Kal's teeth latched onto the side of her neck, in a pleasurable hold.

  For a while, Charlie rested heavily against Kal, panting with closed eyes and her neck still between her lover's teeth. Gradually, a soft tongue soothed the bite and made Charlie moan. Never had she allowed anyone to bite her and was thankful it had been an Alpha as her first. A Kalmar understood exactly where to bite, how hard, and for how long to not only please their lover but also to speak to them.

  After a deep breath, Charlie lifted her head and studied Kal's hand resting on her pale stomach. Further past their laps, she stared at the hard cock that had tipped her over the edge earlier. Another needy twinge started low in her gut, and her entrance throbbed with want. She inhaled sharply and whispered, "I need you in me again."

  For the second time, Kal gave a chuckle, and it was heavy enough to pass into Charlie's body. Silently responding to Charlie's demand, she simply removed her hand from Charlie's stomach, placed it behind herself again, and nudged her hips against Charlie's ass. It was a silent challenge for Charlie to take it if she really wanted it.

  Lust heated further in Charlie's belly. She was flush with desire, skin glistening, the slickest she had ever been in her life. All around her, she was wrapped in Kal's heady scent, nearly consumed but strangely comforted by it. She had never been lightheaded before or so wanting. No longer able to resist, Charlie gently wrapped her hand around the thick shaft.

  A low but pleased rumble from Kal encouraged her further. Charlie wanted to play with Kal's cock, learn it, maybe even taste it, but she faltered at the sheer idea of giving oral sex. She pushed aside the unusual desire and tightened her grip on the shaft, needing it still.

  Kal's purr started softly, then deepened when Charlie began moving, the Alpha's cock sliding through her slick, wet folds.

  Every bit of slick that transferred onto Kal's cock would make it easier for Charlie to ride it. She used her hand to spread it to the underside, but then the friction wasn't enough anymore. She shifted forward, holding the cock, and lifting herself up and over it. She should have gone slower, taking in the centimeters carefully, but Charlie was too greedy and rode down the hard length fast.

  Kal clenched her teeth and was tense, as if restraining her Alpha desires to split Charlie open.

  Charlie was forced to use her arms to ride up and down Kal's cock. Hunger burned in her veins, and she moved her hips, feeling every delicious length of Kal's cock. But her arms began tiring before she could find her orgasm. Kal's bared her teeth at Charlie when she went still, but thankfully, Kal realized the problem.

  With a few adjustments, Kal lifted Charlie from her lap, hooked her left arm under Charlie's knees, and clutched her right hand just under Charlie's ass. She had Charlie cradled securely in her arms and against her muscular body. Gently, she lowered Charlie onto her cock, now in control again.

  The position was completely new to Charlie, but Kal was proudly demon
strating her strength as an Alpha by cradling her. She gasped when the thick cock pushed through her entrance and slowly filled her again. She moaned and dropped her head against Kal's shoulder. Each time Kal lifted her and slowly lowered her back down onto her cock, Charlie became needier. Her inner, soaking walls wrapped around every bit of cock that Kal gave her, but the rhythm was painstaking. Charlie squeezed her own breast, rolling the hard nipple between her fingers, but it was hardly enough to give her what she really needed.

  With a turn of her head, Charlie cautiously tasted Kal's skin for the first time, kissing her neck. She grinned when she received a low, pleased rumble. She tested Kal further and pressed her lips against the hot skin again but this time licked with the flat of her tongue, tasting the musky scent. She groaned uncontrollably, then whimpered when Kal went still, cock only partially in her.

  Charlie expected a threatening growl from Kal or worse but was surprised by a head tilt, a silent offer. She stared at the expanse of the neck now exposed to her and leaned in, only kissing and not biting. From rumors, she knew it was safer not to bite an Alpha unless she wanted to fight for dominance again.

  At first, Kal's rumbles sounded dangerous, but they were gentler and softer, something different. She then continued lowering Charlie onto her cock again but went brutally slow, as if needing to feel every depth of Charlie.

  Nearly driven mad, Charlie craned her neck and lightly grazed her teeth over Kal's pulse point behind her jaw. It was a risk that she hastily hid with a needy whisper. "Please, I need you to fuck me." Her words were rasped and even raw against her own throat.

  There was silence for a few heartbeats, worrying Charlie until Kal snarled with menace. She lifted Charlie off her cock and suddenly flipped and shoved Charlie face first into the bed, then a heavy weight was between Charlie's shoulder blades. She turned her head to one side and gulped for air, barely able to recover before her hips were forcibly lifted up. Then her left arm was jerked behind and held against her midback.

  Kal growled above her, shifted a little, and sharply drove her thick cock past Charlie's entrance and into tight, slick walls.

  "Shit," Charlie yelped and clenched her teeth, closing her eyes. She had provoked Kal to fuck her, and now she was going to have to take it. She was weaker than Kal and yet she feared nothing, actually excited by Kal's power. But she tensed when Kal remained motionless behind her and nearly moved her hips to get the Alpha to move. From the corner of her eye, she barely made out Kal's glowing outline and slight sneer in the candlelight.

  Kal remained still, somewhat buried into Charlie, staring hungrily down at her lover. She snarled low, signaling the start of a good fuck. Pushing forward, her cock filled Charlie to the limit. She pulled back a little, then thrust forward again, repeating the greedy motions. Her grunts matched Charlie's groans, and she kept the wild pace, pounding into Charlie again and again.

  Charlie's walls fluttered briefly… so close. Her moans turned into low screams, barely drowning out their smacking skin. She raised her ass higher, demanding more from her lover. She could feel Kal nearly at her orgasm too, straining and driving against her. Every thrust was more desperate and frantic than the last one, pushing them both to the brink.

  After a wolfish snarl, Kal leveraged a higher angle and went slightly faster, pounding into her lover for every drop of passion. Her cock pulled through Charlie's taut inner center but came out farther than normal. The cock's flared head hit the bundle of nerves near her entrance and pushed her into the orgasm she so badly needed. She screamed and clawed into the sheet under her, but Kal's cock still slid through her clenched walls, eliciting a louder cry from her and splitting her wide.

  Kal echoed Charlie's scream and started toppling forward, just barely able to catch herself with her hands against the bed. She sunk down until both their bodies were flush against each other, then lowered her head near Charlie's own, her hair brushing against Charlie's shoulder.

  Her warm breath caressed the back of Charlie's head. She tried swallowing, but her mouth was so dry, and the heat from Kal's body was against her back. She took several more breaths and was grateful when Kal adjusted her weight slightly off her. A soft, painful throb started low in her belly, signaling her limits, and she still felt Kal's cock in her.

  As if reading Charlie's mind, Kal lifted her weight with her arms and worked her knees under herself. Carefully, she rolled her hips and throatily hummed at Charlie's instant moan from her cock moving inside her.

  "You're too tight," Kal whispered.

  Charlie sighed at her body's betrayal, her inner muscles clenching Kal's cock as if it were a prize to keep. "Just give me a tick." She bit her bottom lip, decided to tease Kal, and reminded, "You are big." Even though she couldn't see Kal's smirk, she heard it in the low rumble rolling around deep in Kal's chest. Somehow she suspected the tightness of her inner muscles and being locked around the Alphas' cock was a compliment to Kal.

  For a moment, there was silence between them that was both peaceful and comforting, compared to the start of their relationship. On the first day, Kal had been a dark force on the throne that had silently willed Charlie to kneel to her. Even tonight, she held control over Charlie, but it was an arrangement rather than forced upon her. Strangely, relinquishing the power to Kal had been thrilling, but it left her questioning herself. Never had anybody been worth trusting so deeply, and yet giving that to Kal had altered something in her. Charlie was hardly ready to face the realization and instead twisted her head over her shoulder.

  "Try now?"

  Kal placed her hand against Charlie's hip and gently pulled her hips away, testing their tightness. She paused on hearing Charlie's moan but continued withdrawing slowly. Once separated, she rolled onto her back and breathed in deeply, as if sedated.

  Charlie remained on her stomach, eyes closed, replaying the unexpected night with Kal. Even if her body still tingled, a note of exhaustion crept through her limbs and settled heavily in her mind. She dozed off into a light sleep that became deeper when the Alpha's soft warmth surrounded her.

  Chapter 6

  Charlie released a groan and turned onto her right side, enjoying the comfort around her. A light but cool breeze brushed across her cheek, making her grumble and burrow under the heavy cover. As she settled again, her mind continued stirring awake, and the musky scent near her played with her memories. She remembered coming over to Kal's room, stripping off their clothes, and then fucking until she fell asleep.

  Sharply, she opened her eyes after realizing she had fallen asleep on Kal, potentially insulting her Alpha nature. Her racing heart made her scan the nearby space, which was the bed's messy and empty landscape. There was still a familiar muskiness that was strictly Kal's own and most likely meant she slept beside Charlie. But Kal had left at some point, and Charlie was worried what could happen next. Based on the sunshine lighting up the room, it was the morning after; Charlie recalled a few regrets in her past sexual encounters.

  Sitting up a little, another soft breeze touched Charlie's flushed skin, and she looked toward the source. To the right, a sheer drape fluttered in the air from the light wind off the balcony. Ever so slightly, an outline of a figure's back stood out against the drape.

  Biting her lip, Charlie considered what to do and visually searched for her clothes. They were neatly folded on a long bench against the opposite wall. She silently cursed when she realized it was unwise to put them on when she smelled like sex, specifically with Kal's scent. Another Kalmar would figure them out in two ticks or faster. However, her attention shifted to the black robe that was resting at the foot of the bed, on her side. It was a silent invite to wear it, so she slid out of the bed and put on the cool, soft clothing. After adjusting it, Charlie headed to the balcony and did her best not to trip on the robe due to its length.

  Beside the floating drape, Charlie made out Kal's distant features and gently offered, "Good morning." Unsure how to handle their unusual situation, she remained positioned near t
he drape so it hid her from the city and any onlookers but kept her in Kal's view.

  Kal turned her attention to her new lover and returned the greeting.

  In a heartbeat, Charlie sensed a different aura from Kal, and it made her tighten her crossed arms. She reminded herself not to overthink last night's choices, something they both made as adults. Charlie had accepted both the decision and the potential circumstance if word spread about her and Kal, a human and a Kalmar.

  Clearing her throat, Charlie mentioned, "I'll grab my stuff and—"

  "Stand out here with me," Kal ordered.

  Charlie swallowed first but nodded more confidently and stepped out onto the balcony beside Kal. As she took in the beautiful view of Tarrak, her concerns faded away, leaving her with a thin smile. From so high up, it would be impossible for anyone to see them together, easing her nerves.

  "Beautiful, isn't it?"

  "Ja," Charlie whispered.

  From the fifty-first floor of the Great Tower, the city's buildings and people were painted across the lands until they faded away against the farmland in the distance. To the right was the Koblenz River with wooden ships that sailed, motored, or moved by oar power. Occasionally, a gull's familiar cry traveled across the winds and made it to their ears. Despite the cool day, the sunlight was soothing against Charlie's flushed features.

  "You came to my planet at what age?" Kal asked, but her attention remained on the city.

  Mentally jerking back to the present, Charlie sighed and answered, "I was about seven when the Liberator made it here." She was well aware of Kal's possession of Kander, fitting into the role of god to this world.
