Ecstasy From the Deep

by Octavia Kore

  He frowned, not even aware there were different kinds of hugs. There was so much to learn. “What kind of hug?”

  “It’s a little something I affectionately call a mouth hug.” Her mouth curled up into a sultry grin while Gulzar began to purr in excitement. “Let me show you.”

  He watched with bated breath as she slid the straps of her dress from her shoulders, letting the top part fall down to her waist. Her pink-tipped breasts hung free and he reached out to brush his thumb over one of them, growling when she shuddered. She untied the sash around her middle, tossing it behind her as the garment pooled around her feet.

  His female was beautiful, and he told her just as much as she sank to her knees again. When her hands slid his tunic over his hips and closed over his cock, Gulzar growled deep in his chest.

  “I was wondering what it might look like,” she said, her fingers playing along the swollen head. “I’ve never seen one quite like it.”

  “Is it different from a human male’s?”

  “Very different.” She laughed quietly, tossing the loosened strands of her hair over her shoulder as she pressed her lips to the inside of his thigh. “I read an article once that went into nearly terrifying detail on the penis of a bee, images and everything included, and I’m amazed at the similarities.”

  “A bee?”

  “You know what? Forget about the bee.” She touched the protrusion above his cock, swirling her finger around it as the stem began to vibrate, the small bumps on it wiggling in a circular motion expectantly. “Oh, gods help me. I’m in for it.”

  “You are going to drive me mad,” Gulzar ground out from between clenched teeth.

  She smiled, fisting his length as she slowly slid her hand up and down. She might deny her divinity, but right now, with her kneeling before him, his throbbing cock in her small hand, Gulzar couldn’t help but see her as the deity he had spent his entire life worshiping.

  Amanda pressed a finger to the tapered head before moving slowly down his length where the glands swelled, growing larger beneath her touch. Leaning forward, Amanda let her breath fan out against his flesh, running the tip of her tongue from stem to tip before taking him into her hot mouth. Gulzar’s hips jerked up from the ground in surprise as he watched her use her other hand to pump his length while she tried to fit his girth between her lips. She pulled back with an audible pop before smiling shyly up at him.

  “A little bigger than I thought,” she said with a wink. “We’ll just work with what we’ve got.”

  She gave him no reprieve, dipping her head and taking him back inside her warmth, pulling a groan from the darkest depths of his body. He had taken himself in his own hands before, but this wasn’t the same at all. The sight of his female moving her free fingers along his sensitive slit almost had him spilling within her mouth. He was going to embarrass himself.

  Goddess help me.

  As if sensing how close he was, Amanda moved faster, swirling her tongue along the bumps and ridges she could reach and then using her hands to squeeze what she couldn’t fit in her mouth. He felt her other hand glide over his stem, circling and pinching softly. He could hardly draw air into his lungs.

  In a bid to distract himself and prolong the encounter, he ran his hands over her chest, pinching the hardened tip of her breast between his fingers. The moan he drew from her vibrated along his cock, and he hissed at the almost painful pleasure it gave him. His cock jerked, seed shooting from the tip into her mouth as his mate tightened her hold around him.

  With a snarl, Gulzar buried his hand in her hair and yanked her off his length, pushing her onto her back as he crawled over her. She arched beneath him as her tongue swiped at her lower lip, her breasts pushing up toward his face as he moved down her body. Gulzar couldn’t resist the urge to capture the pink tip, pulling it into his mouth and nipping it with his fangs. His hands moved over her skin, clutching at her legs as they tried to wrap around his midsection.

  A breathy sigh fell from her lips when he trailed a finger over the wet folds between her legs. The sounds of her pleasure spurred him on as he explored her cunt, probing gently into the heat of her body. When he pressed a finger into her, she gasped, grinding her hips against his palm.

  “Zar!” She clutched at his head and shoulders, grabbing at his xines as she writhed against the forest floor.

  “Yes?” he asked, pulling his mouth from her breast.

  “Please! Please…”

  He wondered idly if a male could “hug” a female in the way she had shown him and he found the idea appealed to him. He pressed his lips to her chest, trailing them over the growing bump of her belly. He nibbled at the skin on her hips and he smiled when he saw her shiver. Gulzar moved down, following the potent scent of her desire, spreading her folds and growling low as he let his gaze roam over her delicate pink flesh.

  His eyes swept up her body, locking onto hers as his tongue glided over her from the bottom of her sex to the top. The taste of her body was indescribable, richer than anything he had ever consumed. When his tongue hit the hidden nub, she arched again and he grinned against her.

  Amanda gasped. “Do that again.”

  Chapter 32

  Amanda

  If she hadn’t known Zar, if she hadn’t been in the village to witness the way others had treated him, Amanda would never have believed this was his first sexual experience. His tongue, unlike a human’s, was rough with tiny ridges running from one side to the other.

  Just one swipe of it over her folds was nearly enough to push her over the edge of sanity. When she thought it couldn’t get any better, his tongue began to vibrate gently and she sucked in a deep breath as her body tensed.

  Butterflies filled her stomach as her heart pounded inside her chest, and she squeezed her eyes shut as she let the pleasure of his touch wash over her. There was movement somewhere to her side, but Zar renewed his efforts and her mind went blank. The vines around his head struck out at her thighs, making her hiss as the light sting heightened the sensations he was giving her.

  When she felt a hand move over her breast, followed quickly by a warm mouth, Amanda’s eyes shot open, meeting Oshen’s intense golden gaze. His hand moved to her other breast, kneading and pinching the tip as Zar worked her with his mouth. The feeling of both her males giving her pleasure was overwhelming and so much more than she had ever imagined it would be.

  Amanda moved her hand beneath the borrowed tunic Oshen wore, sending up a silent thank you to any and every deity that she wasn’t going to have to struggle with his usual uniform pants. She found him hard and extruded, the glands at the base already swollen and pulsing with need, his fushori glowing with a fierceness she hadn’t seen before.

  “You are so beautiful, gynaika,” he breathed against her.

  The heat she saw in his eyes raised goosebumps along her skin, and Gulzar chose that exact moment to caress her clit with that fantastic tongue of his. Amanda arched up as a moan tore out of her throat and the sweet bliss of her orgasm crashed over her. Shudders racked her, and she felt her toes curl as her body tensed. Gulzar continued to lap at her sensitive flesh, swiping his tongue across her opening as he growled.

  “Oshen, please,” she whispered, tugging at the braids that hung over his shoulder.

  “What is it?”

  “I need you. I want you.” She whimpered at the loss of Gulzar’s heat, but Oshen was quick to take his place, nudging her legs apart as he moved over her.

  She shivered when Gulzar reached down to take Oshen’s cock in his large hands, stroking it a few times before he angled it toward her sex. The sight of them together made her breath catch. As Oshen pressed himself into her cunt, Zar trailed his fingers up to rub against her clit. Amanda could feel each ridge, each inch as he pressed deeper inside of her, and just when she felt like she couldn’t take any more, he bottomed out inside of her. Oshen pulled his hips back slowly before thrusting himself forward in time with the movement of Zar’s fingers.

  She felt
his mating glands swelling inside of her as their hips collided. Gulzar moved up to kiss her, but she tilted her head away, pressing her lips close to his ear, his xines moving up to caress her face as she spoke breathlessly. “You want Oshen?” She could only smile when he growled. “Show him,” she whispered. “Show him you want him too.”

  Zar turned and, with a snarl, reached forward to bring Oshen’s mouth down to his for a kiss that turned her on more than anything she had ever seen. She worked herself on Oshen’s cock as she watched them with hooded eyes. Her hand stroked Zar’s cock, and she smiled when she noticed it was already hard and throbbing, ready for more attention. Oshen hissed when her body tightened around his.

  “I need…” Her words ended on a groan.

  “What do you need, little goddess?”

  She felt Zar’s fingers trail over her arm. “I want both of you. I want my mates.”

  The realization that she could have died in that ship slammed into her and she felt her emotions choke her. She would have never had this opportunity, would have never been able to share her love with both of them. Oshen pulled her up into his arms, flipping them so that she straddled his hips. He looked up at her and touched her cheek, smiling as if he could read her mind.

  She turned her head to watch Zar as he moved up behind her, his tongue running along her shoulders and the back of her neck as he got down on his knees. Oshen’s cock jerked within her as Zar’s hands ran over his thighs, guiding her forward until she was lying on top of Oshen. The tip of Zar’s cock pressed into her and she gasped.

  Oshen pulled nearly all the way out and she felt both of them thrust together, gently working their lengths inside of her body. She whimpered at the fullness, at the way her body stretched almost painfully to accommodate them.

  “Oh fuck,” she breathed, groaning as they moved against one another within her.

  Beneath her, Oshen’s eyes slid closed and he arched his back, snarling as his glands pressed against her walls.

  The small protrusion above Zar’s cock pressed against her ass as he sank into her, drawing a moan from Amanda as she met his movements. Oshen’s fingers played with her nipples as Zar thrust forward again, grinding her clit against their mate’s pelvis. When the vibrating protrusion slipped into her, Amanda’s head fell forward.

  “You feel so good,” Zar groaned as he gripped her hips with his claws, his mouth moving down to kiss her shoulder. “Mine,” he growled as he opened his mouth and then dug his fangs into her skin, causing a haze to fall over her vision.

  Oshen hissed, and she glanced down to see Zar’s claws sinking into the dark skin on his thighs just before she felt his mating glands expand within her, locking the three of them together. Hot seed bathed her walls as they came together, all three of them coming with a moan of pure bliss. Amanda sighed as Zar’s tongue stroked the wound he had made, and she clutched at Oshen’s arms as they turned onto their sides. For the first time in her life, Amanda felt complete.

  “Is this the only way to get to the dome?” Amanda narrowed her eyes on the sleek pod Oshen stood in front of, her feet shifting restlessly against the stone platform they stood on.

  “It’s the fastest and safest way to get you there.” Oshen held his hand out to her. “I don’t know how long the leaves are going to keep infection from Zar’s wounds. I would like for them to be checked by the healer as soon as possible.”

  “They have never failed Kyra.” Zar frowned as he stepped up behind her. “I do not like the idea of being surrounded by the wayward offsprings’ technology.”

  “Well, you happen to be mated to one of them, so I suppose you will get used to it,” Oshen drawled, motioning to the pod with his chin. “Let’s go, you two.”

  Amanda bit her lip, shrugging at Zar as she stepped forward into the pod. Her big mauve mate climbed in hesitantly behind her, pulling her into his lap as he sat down on the cushioned bench. His hands cradled her belly and she rested her head against his shoulder as Oshen closed the door.

  “Welcome back, Ambassador Oshen.”

  “Set coordinates to the main dome.”

  “Setting destination. Please be seated.” The pod lurched as it began to move across the ground toward the beach.

  Amanda glanced around in wonder as she took in her surroundings. She was finally getting her first good look at Venora without her life being in danger, and it was more beautiful than she had realized. She had once thought it might look like Earth, but she had been wrong.

  Red leaves peeked at her from outside the window of the pod, curling black trunks reaching for her as if to welcome her to the new world. She eagerly absorbed everything around her as she looked for any sign of creatures she had encountered over the last few days, but only plant life and terrain were visible.

  “Why aren’t there any animals out here?”

  “The transport emits a high-pitched noise that keeps them away for our protection.”

  “Interesting,” she mused as she turned this way and that in Zar’s arms, trying to get a better look.

  Oshen leaned forward, plucking a pad from a pocket in the wall. She watched him as he scrolled, frowning down at whatever it was he was reading. He’d been quiet most of the morning, and she wasn’t sure if it was because of what had happened between them the day before or if it was something else entirely. He would tell her eventually. For now, she was going to take in as much as she could. Gulzar shifted uncomfortably beneath her and she squeezed his hand gently.

  The babies wiggled in her belly and she felt Zar rattle softly, stopping the nausea that being in the enclosed space was causing. Zar pointed out some of the plants she had seen on their journey, telling her their names and what his people used them for. She recognized the porous rocks they had taken shelter in on their way to the village and again yesterday after they had finally pulled themselves away from one another.

  Excitement pulsed through her body, the hairs on her arms standing on end as the first waves licked at the edge of the pod. She was finally going down into the ocean her mate had bragged about. A new world was opened up to her as they sank farther into the surf and she gaped in utter amazement.

  “Ooh, look! What’s that one? It’s like a fish-eating anemone but way longer and translucent!”

  Oshen only grunted in response as he continued to scroll, his brows pinched as he chewed at his lip.

  “Hey, Meatface! Your mate is talking to you,” Mouni announced, ever helpful.

  Oshen looked up, a guilty expression flashing across his face. “My apologies, my heart. I’m sincerely glad you find my world interesting. I was just reading the article the healer sent Mouni.”

  The AI had stolen the words straight from her mind and she could have kissed her for calling Oshen out.

  “Article about what?”

  “I had inquired while you were sleeping about your sickness and he found a problem that humans have during pregnancy called hyperemesis gravidarum. It is very rare, but he says with the weight you have lost and your symptoms, you qualify for the diagnosis. He said he could confirm at the clinic and talk about a treatment plan to keep you healthy.”

  “That’s good, but I prefer Zar’s rattle.” She grinned back at Zar before looking around once more. Medical talk could wait until her appointment.

  A creature swam near the window and she nearly jumped out of Zar’s lap to get a better look. Its body was long and slender, like an eel, but it was transparent and the head looked more like the exoskeleton of a crustacean.

  Whatever the eel thing was, it didn’t stay around long, dashing off as a reptilian beast drifted too close. This new one was even more extraordinary, with its massive horned shell and the long mermaid’s tail that trailed behind it.

  Amanda itched to throw on her gear and dive right in, but that would have to wait at least until the little ones arrived. Taps on the glass above her had her looking up to see four claws scooting along the surface. A long, fleshy tether connected the crab-like critter to a large buoyant
balloon with flowering at the top.

  “Does the noise not keep the sea life away like it did on land? I would think the sound waves would travel better under the water.”

  “It keeps the larger ones at bay, but some can withstand the noise.”

  “So it ripples away from the pod then? I can’t imagine how many miles out they must scatter considering how far sound waves can carry. I wonder if these are similar to the octopus in that they have limited hearing.” Normally, crustaceans like the common prawn were sensitive to higher frequencies. Though she supposed that instead of the statocyst, these could have sensory hairs that made them less sensitive. “I would kill to learn more about the inhabitants you have here! It’s all so fascinating.”

  Oshen smiled as he leaned forward to cup her face, tenderly kissing her forehead. “You don’t have to kill anyone to get that chance. I will talk to a few acquaintances and see if I can get you a position with our scientists, my love. Maybe get you diving again,” his hand caressed her stomach. “Whenever it is safe again.”

  “Maybe I could snorkel in the meantime?” She pursed her lips, glancing back into the depths. She hadn’t really considered what she might do once she got here. “Do you guys have something similar I could do?”

  “Maybe we could look into the miliseeds?” Gulzar supplied.

  “I’ll ask around. Perhaps, for the time being at least, we use the pods to explore the open water? The city within will have more than enough for you to explore.”

  “Yeah.” She sighed as the pod came to a soft stop. Bouncing her leg anxiously, she looked for something to distract herself from her thoughts. Despite the fact that she would have her mates beside her, meeting new people wasn’t exactly something she looked forward to. Zar set her on her feet gently, but he caused the entire craft to shudder as he stood, making Amanda fall into Oshen as she stumbled to the side. He caught her with ease and gave her a gentle smile as he brushed her hair from her face.
