Wendigo

  Risa could hold back no more and Win could feel her body as it began to release. Her channel clenched at his fingers and she arched up, thrashing wildly with the joy of her release. He moved his fingers and lapped up the honey of her climax enjoying every drop. Her keening sound was music to his ears and he became so hard his cock wept.

  Win slid up her still jerking body and drove inside her channel which immediately clutched at him. He had to calm himself to avoid an abrupt orgasm. Slowly, he moved in and out in long even strokes. His rhythm was smooth and now his climax built slowly. Risa had calmed, but now she started to tense all over again and her second orgasm built.

  They were beautiful together, just how he’d known they would be. It felt wondrous to be inside her. He felt just as if he were home. The feeling was both peaceful and explosive, calming and titillating. Win never wanted it to end, yet he needed to find relief. This woman was everything to him and always would be.

  A tingle ran down his back to his tail bone. It was a sign he was close to his release. He held back trying to pull all the enjoyment out of being immersed in Risa’s body. His balls drew up and his toes curled. Risa gasped letting him know she was close too. His body was fully involved and from what he saw and felt, so was hers.

  It caught them both off guard when it hit like an Earthquake. The pleasure slammed into them so hard, he didn’t think either one of them could draw in a breath. They both shook with the intense feelings that overwhelmed them. His heart pounded and he finally managed to pull in a breath just to leave him gasping again and again.

  Slowly, their breathing calmed and their hearts slowed. Their bodies relaxed and before they knew it they were both asleep. Win woke suddenly. It hadn’t been his intention to fall asleep and spend the night with Risa. They hadn’t talked things through. Neither of them knew where they stood with the other.

  Honestly, except for the balls the gods held, he had no sexual experience. What they had done last night, blew all his expectations out of the water. It wasn’t a surprise that it had happened. The surprise was it hadn’t happened sooner. They had what humans called chemistry, tons of it.

  He had no regrets and he hoped she didn’t either. The smart thing would be to get dressed and slip away. They could discuss it later in the cold light of day. Win tried to be quiet and slipped out of bed. Looking at the bed, he was hit by how beautiful she looked as she lay there sleeping peacefully. Maybe next time he could sleep with her and hold her all night long.

  She moved, so he started getting dressed so he could go and not disturb her. It felt wrong to leave, but that was the way they did it after the ball. It was all he knew to do. In the morning, he would see her again. He quietly shut the door feeling awful about sneaking away.

  The hall on this level was deserted. He made it to his room unseen by anything except the camera’s ever watchful eyes. Once in his room, he relaxed. A quick shower and he felt better. Settling into his bed, he had a restless night before he finally woke in the morning. Win dressed and headed to the cafeteria. He wondered if Risa would be there and he looked forward to seeing her.

  He got his tray, his food, and was sitting down eating when she walked in. She seemed to look everywhere, but at him. Had he done something wrong? Maybe she hadn’t enjoyed herself last night. Win had thought she had, but what did he know about women? Too little it would seem. Risa sat far away from him not even sharing the same table.

  The other guys arrived one at a time. As Xap sat down, he looked at Risa then at Win. Win just shrugged, what did he know. Women were mysteries to him. Zepar sat down next to him. “What did you do to Risa?” He asked.

  “What makes you think it was me?” Win asked.

  “It’s just a little feeling I have.” Zepar replied.

  Lu and Stef sat down. They both glanced at Risa then looked at Win and frowned. Neither of them spoke. Finally Abe came in and got his tray and food. Only he sat with Risa and looked over at Win. At least he’d find out what was wrong with Risa. Abe would let him know so he could fix it. It would all be alright then.

  Win finished his breakfast and left to go to his office and do paperwork. At least it kept him busy until it was time for practice. Now that he had to go, he was nervous. What if Risa was angry with him? He felt foolish because he was a big tough male and yet Risa had him where she wanted him. The problem was, she didn’t seem to care.

  He headed down the hall to the music room. Laughter and the sound of conversation drifted out into the hallway. As soon as he stepped into the room, silence ruled. What was wrong with everyone?

  “Glad you could make it. You won’t need to run off during practice, will you?” Lu asked.

  “No.” Win replied and wondered what the significance of the question was.

  “Let’s get this party started.” Lu hollered.

  They did a set and then took a break. Win worked his way over to Risa. “Hi. How are you today?”

  “My day’s gone to shit since I woke up alone.” She said and she walked away.

  Holy crap. Now he knew what was wrong with her. He followed her and stopped next to her. “It’s not like I have any experience with females. I didn’t know if you’d be upset if I stayed.”

  “You could have asked.” Risa pointed out, but she didn’t look as mad as she had before.

  “You were asleep. I didn’t want to wake you up. I thought we’d work it all out today.” Win admitted.

  “Work what out?” She asked.

  “You and me, our relationship and how you want to move forward.” He explained.

  “I didn’t think you wanted to move forward when I woke up alone.” Risa admitted.

  “There’s something between us. I thought you felt it too.” Win said

  “When you were gone, I thought I was wrong.” Risa observed.

  “No, you weren’t wrong. You just forgot demons aren’t like other guys. We don’t know what to do or what’s expected of us. Our lives have been lived away from the opposite sex. No one told us what to do or how to act. We didn’t have parents to emulate, no favorite uncle to tell us about his relationships, nothing but TV which isn’t realistic for the most part.” Win offered.

  “You’re right. I did forget. I just felt so disappointed when you were gone I thought you didn’t care.” She admitted.

  “That’s not true. I care a bunch. You’ll just have to be patient with me. All this is new.” Win explained.

  “I’ll try, but you’ll have to be understanding too.” She added.

  “If we both try, I think we’ll be fine.” Win imagined.

  “Time to get back to practice unless you two need more time.” Lu asked.

  “We’re fine.” Win declared. Thank goodness he’d weathered this storm. He remembered when Stef and Lu had gotten together. That’s when he realized there might be a few more storms.

  Practice went well, so much so that he was surprised when Lu mentioned they would practice again tomorrow. First no practice, now practice all the time. It was Lu’s call but whatever. Now they sat down for lunch and a meeting.

  “I got word back from Zeus about the Yukon facility. He believes it’s underground and they thought they’d located it once, but it didn’t pan out. They’re using satellite surveillance to ferret it out. If we’re available, he wants us to go in with Hades and Doc for a backup.” Lu explained.

  “Why would we need backup?” Xap asked.

  “We haven’t run the missions before. It’s smart to have backup in case of problems.” Lu declared.

  “Okay.” Win said and the others followed.

  “Who is going on this mission?” Risa asked.

  “Yeah, who?” Stef seconded.

  Lu groaned and Win winced. They both saw what was coming. “We want to go.” Both women said in chorus.

  “Do you know how dangerous it is?” Win asked. They both nodded. “I’m not sure you truly do. These guys are out for blood and dying is better than being captured.”

  “I worked with th
ose guys. I couldn’t help but know how they are.” Risa snapped.

  “Believe me, I’m well trained in hand to hand combat. I’ve seen videos of the raids on Origin labs so I am well aware of how they are.” Stef offered.

  “What about Lily? If something should happen to you, what about her!” Lu asked.

  “And if something happened to you?” Stef asked.

  “I’m trained to do these raids.” Lu said confidently.

  “You trained on actual raids. I’ve heard all about it.” Stef observed.

  “I also trained before them in a number of things.” Lu insisted.

  “Fine. What do I need to train in?” Stef asked.

  “You need to be able to run a long distance in a short time without stopping.” Lu listed.

  “I already do. I go five miles on the track in the gym. You can check my times.” Stef offered.

  “You need a high level of combat training and ability.” Lu added.

  “I have a fifth degree black belt in karate, kung fu, and judo. I was also trained by a military combat instructor because Sierra wanted me to have some additional training.” Stef said.

  “You also need additional skills in a relevant area.” Lu continued.

  “That covers me. I’m a medic.” Risa said. She and Stef pumped fists.

  “You need the combat training and physical fitness requirements.” Win pointed out.

  “Just send us the requirements, but know if you make them harder for us, we’ll find out. We’ll check them all off and then we will be included.” Stef threatened.

  “Fine. Let’s eat lunch and I’ll dismiss you all.” Lu promised.

  That was exactly the way things happened. The next few days passed and he saw Risa every night. Usually they spent the night together, but one night they couldn’t because she worked late and he had to get up early. Stef and Risa went to the gym with the guys so they could qualify and they were amazed at the condition the girls were in. They could even fight a little.

  That was what Win said when he picked himself up from the mat. It was already obvious Lu wouldn’t be able to keep them off the team. Two days until they left and Risa was immersed in finishing up Troll, Urisk, and Hob.

  They were relaxing after making love and just before sleep took them. “Troll is finished. He has all the robotics and I injected his nanonets. He’ll have to go with us to Cali so I can observe him. It’s why I’m waiting to inject the nanonets in the other two. I need more information, but so far it’s amazing.” Risa enthused.

  “You’re ahead of schedule.” Win observed. “I thought doctors always put things off, canceled, rescheduled, and so on.” He chuckled when she smacked him lightly.

  “Not this doctor. This work is amazing. Skin is starting to grow over the robotics. I believe eventually he’ll look like what most of us imagine a cyborg to be. The robotic ears and eyes are even better than your superior demon ones. The arms and leg, ten times stronger than the one he was born with. I hate anyone to lose a part of themselves, but if they do, these replacements are the next best thing.” Risa concluded.

  “You really think it will look natural? How can the nanonets do that?” Win wondered.

  “I used the measurement of his natural limb added a little to make up for what he lost while he was injured and will regain once he’s active to make his robotics. The skin will grow from the edge of the robotics out until eventually it covers everything. If he’s cut, it will bleed. You won’t believe it when you see him.” Risa said.

  “Troll didn’t have many of the traits that make one a demon. He has bumps where horns would be, but they never developed. He had a stub where his tail would have been, but it never grew either. He has knobs where the wings never formed. He’s always felt like he was missing something. This will be good for him.” Win remarked.

  “It will be good for all three of them. The other two will just have to wait until we get back. They have their robotics, I’m just not ready to use the nanonets before I see how Troll does.” Risa admitted.

  They fell asleep, tired but happy. He was happy all the time now that they were together. She completed him and he hoped she felt the same way. In the morning they would put the finishing touches on everything. Packing was mostly done except for a few last minute items. It was all good and by the end of the day, all luggage was loaded and everything was ready.

  All they had to do was get through the night, dress, eat breakfast, and load on the plane. Win was getting excited. He couldn’t wait to see Risa’s house. It would be a reflection of how she was inside. He wanted to know everything about her. Meanwhile, Zeus had been working on finding her sister, Leann. Once they knew where she was, a mission would be called right away.

  The morning hit like a cyclone. Everyone seemed to have forgotten last minute things. Win was the only one who was calmly eating breakfast and drinking his coffee. Even Risa was overly excited, but it was because of Troll. His skin had grown at an accelerated pace. His eye had filled in and looked almost natural. His ear was perfect and undetectable. The skin of his arm was to his elbow and looked like the skin on the other arm.

  His leg had skin to his knee. He was walking like he had before he’d been injured and had perfect control of his limbs. There was a big smile on his face and he was excited as they loaded on the plane for his first trip since they’d moved to this island and his first vacation ever.

  Chapter 10

  Tripping

  Risa was excited. As she looked out the window of the plane and saw they were leaving the island behind, she looked forward to the visit home. Lu had assured her they would spend a week there possibly more and she was stoked.

  “Attention everyone. Now that we’re in the air, I have an announcement to make. First, while we will start out in San Diego and most likely end up there, we have three more concerts and a raid we will be carrying out.” A low buzz of conversation met this announcement. First will be San Diego, then after a day off, we will fly up to San Francisco for the day and come back that evening after the concert. We will take the next day off then go to Los Angeles for a day followed by a private party in Beverly Hills the next day. We’ll return to San Diego that night and wait for information and a backup team for an extraction mission. Everyone understand?” Lu asked.

  “Who are we extracting?” Xap asked.

  “Leann, Risa’s sister and anyone else that Origin may be holding at that location including potential prisoners so we only kill if necessary.” Lu cautioned.

  She wasn’t surprised by any of the news. Lu had divulged all this information to her earlier. Zeus had information on her sister including a location that they were currently scouting. Once her presence or the presence of someone they wanted was confirmed, the raid would be scheduled around their schedule or given to another team if necessary.

  It didn’t matter how they recovered her as long as they did and she was okay. She hated that those horrible people had captured her sister and killed their parents. As much as she wanted revenge, right now her sister was the most important thing as far as she was concerned. The gods had other reasons for the raid as well and she wished them luck.

  Lu went on to answer questions, none of them affected her part in all this. Win sat next to her and she was sure he knew more than she did. Stef was by Lu and Lily had been left behind for safety sake. Several gods well trained in security had arrived at the Island last night and they would see to Lily and the facility until Lu was back. They would take the approach of fading into the background as if they were on vacation unless they were needed.

  “So how is Tarot doing?” Zepar asked.

  “She’s been watching Cirrus and reporting to me. Now she’ll report to Bellet until I get back. What’s your interest?” Lu asked.

  “I’m just curious about Cirrus.” Zepar explained, but Lu didn’t look convinced.

  Some of the secondary leadership team would be in charge completely if nothing went wrong. Risa was almost positive the extra security was
because of Cirrus. The man gave her the willies and probably always would. It was nice to get a break from him. She hoped he could behave while they were gone so Lu and Win wouldn’t have any worries.

  The plane was cool and loaded with luxuries which was good since it was a long flight. Risa pulled out her notebook and got to work. She had more than enough to keep her busy on any flight. She accessed her patient records and began to go through everything for Urisk and Hob. As soon as she returned they would get their nanonets.

  Troll was doing amazing. She had checked him out part way through the flight and was stunned his robotics were fully covered with skin and they blended in completely. It was so much better than expected, because Brentwood had told her the nanonets wouldn’t grow skin. Once she’d fixed the anomaly in their programing, the sky was the limit. They had fixed every issue Troll had due to the torture he’d been the victim of. They had also blended his robotics in where no one would be able to detect them visually once the skin growth was complete.

  He sat there, close to Risa relaxed and looking the happiest she’d ever seen him. Risa had never imagined his body would accept the nanonets and the robotics so seamlessly. It looked like Troll had gotten a new lease on life. If he passed all his tests, Lu intended to put him on a team once the demons started raiding Origin facilities. It seemed the gods had missed at least half a dozen of labs located in harsh environments. Those were places the demons could easily go.

  Information was coming in that showed those labs were still functioning. Gods were still there being tortured and experimented on. They were being bred and children were being kept or sold. Risa turned off her electronic notebook. It was impossible to concentrate when her mind was filled with everything that was going on. Normally she could compartmentalize, but there was just too much happening.

  “Too much excitement?” Win asked while he watched her carefully.
