Shalia's Diary # 6 Page 4

by Tracy St. John


  May 12

  As crappy as yesterday was, it ended quite well. I’m still wearing a smile on my face, in fact, even though I had a nasty nightmare last night.

  I’d prefer to bask in the happy parts. I was ready for dinner with a few minutes to spare when the door announce went off. “It’s Oses,” the deep, thrilling voice informed me.

  I was equal parts delighted and chagrined to hear the Nobek had dropped by. Delighted, because I’m always happy to see Oses. Plus I could show off my pretty blouse and bracelet. I’d balanced out the shiny bling with a simple long cream skirt. Forever stupid when it comes to up-dos, I’d still managed to sweep my hair into a easy chignon Candy had taught me. I felt pretty and wanted Oses to see.

  Yet I felt a stab of concern, since Betra had arranged for dinner. I didn’t like the thought of Oses feeling odd man out. He’d been through so much recently, and I worried over it.

  Fortunately, I hadn’t been fully informed of what the night was to entail. I opened my door to find Oses looking spiffy in his uniform. “You’re back on duty?” came out of my mouth by way of greeting.

  Oses looked me up and down with obvious appreciation. “Betra told me to report to your quarters for dinner, and to look like a gentleman. Since my uniform is the nicest thing I wear, I put it on. You look gorgeous, Shalia.”

  “So do you,” I said, thrilled Oses was part of the party. “Come in. What is – oh my goodness.”

  I was cut off by the arrival of an Imdiko I recognized from food services showing up at my still open door with a hovercart. On top of it were sealed meal trays. Apparently a feast was in the making.

  On his heels came Betra. My liaison was dressed in a silky-looking shirt and well-cut trousers. Oses and I both looked him up and down with appreciation. He grinned at us in return. “My timing couldn’t be better. Go ahead and set the meal up on the table,” he directed the food service worker.

  Betra turned to me and Oses. “Weapons Commander, I’m glad you made it.”

  “As if I have anything better to do,” the Nobek grumbled. His grumpiness lasted only a moment. “Thank you for the invitation, Betra. I’m not quite sure what a ‘romancing dinner’ entails, so you’ll forgive me if my manners are lacking.”

  The Imdiko grinned at him. “It’s a romantic dinner. My research says Earther females love this kind of thing. All that’s required is treating our Shalia like a queen.” He looked me over, his smile growing brighter. “You are certainly as beautiful as an empress tonight, Matara.” He bowed to me.

  I had the absurd urge to curtsey in return. “Thank you, Betra,” I said. “This is nice of you. But what’s the occasion?”

  He chuckled. “I felt bad that you two missed out on shore leave. It was a nice one, which I’m sure you’ve heard all about. I thought you deserved something special to make up for it.”

  Aw, what a sweetie. I got a lump in my throat over Betra’s gesture. Darn hormones were making me emotional again. “This is so nice of you, Betra,” I said. My voice had a catch in it.

  “Indeed it is.” Oses gave Betra a rare smile, one that had no sign of his usual feral personality. It had sincere warmth in it.

  The Imdiko blushed. He was saved further embarrassment by the food service worker stepping away from my sitting room’s table, now set for dinner.

  “Will there be anything else, Liaison Betra?” the younger man asked.

  “No, thank you. It looks wonderful. Your handheld, please?” Betra pulled his portable computer from his belt.

  The other Imdiko did likewise, and the two men tapped their handhelds together. The food service worker’s eyes widened at whatever appeared on his screen, and he bowed deeply to Betra. “Thank you, Liaison. Let me know if I can be of further service to you.”

  He left, his smile as wide as his face. I guess Betra is a good tipper.

  Betra swept his hand towards the table. “Have a seat, my friends.”

  We gathered around the table. It wasn’t that big, and our plates crowded against each other and the floral centerpiece that had apparently been brought in with the food. A spray of pink and white flowers sent a lovely perfume in my direction. The man from the kitchen had also placed my few seating cushions around the low table, rather than have us crunch together on the lounger. It was still a cozy situation with us rubbing knees as we all sat crosslegged on our pillows. I’m not complaining. I love being close to my guys.

  Betra further impressed us by taking a bottle of leshella out of a cooling cylinder and pouring everyone a glass. “It’s safe for the baby,” he reminded me.

  “Isn’t it also expensive?” I asked, admiring the deep sapphire of the beverage before taking a sip. Delicious.

  The Imdiko shrugged as he plucked a morsel of pilchok off my plate to feed to me. “This isn’t just because you missed out on shore leave. I’ve wanted to celebrate a lot of things. You two have understandably not been up for it, but things are getting better.”

  Oses eyed his massive ronka steak drowning in a thick red sauce with undisguised appreciation. “What are we celebrating, exactly?”

  Betra took a bite of his own braised ronka strips tossed in a bed of herbs and greens. After chewing and swallowing, he replied, “Everything. Getting you and Shalia back alive. The two of you getting past the trauma of your imprisonment. You and I finding common ground to explore our relationship options. Shalia’s little girl. Shalia’s birthday. I mean, it feels like there is a lot to be happy about and I am. I hope it’s not too soon?”

  “Not for me,” I said. “I’m feeling good about a lot of things.” I took another bite of pilchok, this time from Oses.

  Oses nodded. “I’m a bit frustrated by not being able to resume my duties yet, but yes, overall I would say things are much better. I think Feru is going to push for another trial separation from Shalia soon though, this time for two days. I’m not looking forward to it.”

  “We’ll just have to make tonight an extra special celebration then,” I said, giving him a wicked look.

  He answered with a growl and “Let me get my strength up,” before shoving a huge chunk of ronka in his mouth.

  The dinner that followed was romantic all right. The two men made sure of that. They fed me, petted me, kissed me, made sure of my every comfort. The compliments were copious with my various attributes lauded: beauty (yeah right), warmth of personality (ha-ha), strength (ha-ha-ha-ha), and anything else they could come up with to honor me for. By the time we finished eating, I was Goddess of the Universe.

  It was silly and over the top, but those two men made me feel so good. There was genuine regard in their eyes. One minute I would beam, the next I was wiping tears away. Betra’s dinner surprise was wonderful.

  “And now for dessert,” Betra said after we’d emptied our plates.

  I groaned. “I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but I have to beg off. I’m stuffed full. I couldn’t eat another bite.”

  He snickered as he reached to open one of two small bowl containers that had remained covered throughout our meal. “Actually, my sweet, you are the dessert.” He uncovered the bowl with a flourish.

  Oses growled at what looked to me like a thick yellow liquid. “Rasgrul sauce?”

  Betra’s grin was an evil thing as he nodded to the weapons commander. “I thought you might like it.” He turned to me. “It’s a sweet but spicy sauce. And when I say spicy, I’m talking a serious kick to the tongue. Most Earthers don’t care for it, but we Kalquorians love it.”

  I raised my eyebrows at him. “I assume I’m wearing rather than tasting it.”

  “You would be correct.”

  Betra rose from the table, taking the bowl of hot and spicy rasgrul sauce as well as the still-covered bowl. I assumed that to be extra sauce. He jerked a nod to Oses. “You can carry our lovely maiden to her bedroom. I’ll fetch an extra cover to keep her sheets clean.”

  I’ve never seen Oses grin bigger than he did right then. The man looked like he had won a billion
dollars. “You do know how to throw a dinner party, Imdiko. One Matara, coming to bed.”

  Betra went to my room while Oses got gracefully to his feet. “Stay there, pet. Let this old warrior pick you up.”

  “Old?” I laughed while secretly envying how easily he was able to get up from the floor. Even when I’m not pregnant, I don’t have any of his agility. “You could outfight most men a quarter of your age and you know it.”

  Oses bowed, looking more pleased than ever. “Thank you, my sweet pet.”

  He crouched to gather me in his arms and lifted me like a baby. My big, strong Nobek. He makes me giddy.

  Oses carried me the few steps from sitting room to bedroom. Betra had already located a thick, fluffy blanket and set it over the other coverings of my sleeping mat. The bowl of sauce was on the nightstand.

  Oses stopped next to him and my bed. “As you’ve already directed tonight’s festivities so well, I leave you in command. What next?” the Nobek asked Betra.

  Betra looked delighted that the usually controlling Nobek was letting him keep the lead. “Lay her on the mat. We’ll undress her.”

  Oses settled me gently to the soft surface. He supported my back as Betra slipped my pretty blouse off. “Hang it up in the closet please?” I asked. I didn’t want it getting wrinkled.

  “Of course. Matara Katrina has good taste in clothes,” Betra said.

  He put the blouse away and then my skirt when Oses took that off me and handed it off. My low-heeled slippers were next. Then with infinite care, I was stripped of my underclothes, leaving me with just my bracelet and a simple gold necklace.

  “The jewelry is pretty,” Betra decided. “Let’s leave it on. If the sauce gets on it, we can clean it.”

  “All right.” Oses’ eyes had gone dark the way they always do when sex is on the menu. “I’m looking forward to cleaning sauce off her skin.”

  “So am I. Shall I drizzle our dessert?”

  “Indeed and hurry.” Oses looked my naked body over with eagerness.

  “I take it the heat won’t translate to skin contact?” I asked.

  Betra brought the bowl over and settled on the bed next to me. “Just a little warmth, perhaps.”

  “You’ve felt worse,” Oses agreed. “Like last time you and I were together?”

  Oh yeah, the fire lotion episode. If we weren’t going that far this time, I thought I’d be okay.

  Betra dripped yellow goo over my breasts. “One for you and one for me,” he told Oses happily. He set the bowl with still more than half the sauce left over to the side.

  “Fair enough.” Oses sat next to my prone body and leaned in with a very glad expression and erection. He licked the fastest falling drop rolling down beneath my armpit, and kept going up all the way to the nipple.

  “Yum,” he said, as I giggled at the ticklish-erotic sensation.

  Betra was right in that there was a little warmth, especially where that raspy tongue lapped up the rasgrul. It reminded me of when I’d chopped jalapenos in the past and the resulting heat on my fingertips. Very warm, but not painful. It was a good feeling.

  “My turn,” Betra said. He took out a wide swath of sauce at the bottom of the breast on his side and smacked his lips together. My insides bubbled in joy. I liked being dessert.

  “Delicious,” Oses said, bending to suck my nipple clean of sauce. I squealed as he drew hard and licked the pebbled tip with great enthusiasm. Excitement zapped from breast to clit.

  Back and forth the rapturous feasting went. My breasts tingled from the attention as the men licked, suckled, and mouthed them with abandon. Hands crept down by body to enjoy points south. Being his typical baby belly-worshiping self, Betra caressed my bump. Oses went further down to tease my pussy.

  “Speaking of tasty sauces,” the Nobek said, licking his dripping fingers after cleaning the breast he’d been assigned to.

  “You can mix them, you know,” Betra said, waggling his eyebrows at us both. “Dr. Tep said it’s okay, so long as you keep the rasgrul on the outside.”

  “Oh did he?” Oses said at the same time that I groaned and covered my face with my hands. I spread my fingers to give Betra a glare.

  “I am tired of that man knowing everything I do in the bedroom,” I told my liaison.

  Betra didn’t look the least bit apologetic. “He needs to know for the baby’s sake. Besides, I think we’re helping his clan with their own seduction techniques.”

  I wrinkled my nose. “You know, I think I want to think about Tep getting busy almost as little as I want him to be thinking of me like that.”

  “Too much talk,” Oses growled as he slid down to put his face level with my sex. “Hand me that bowl of sauce.”

  I was freshly drizzled above and below decks. Betra now had my tits to himself while Oses concentrated on my pussy. Warmth and tongues and lips and occasionally little nips from teeth ... I quickly forgot my momentary pique with Betra.

  Oh those wonderful men. With those talented mouths in play, I could forgive them anything.

  My insides churned in a good way as I was lustfully devoured for several minutes. The warmth of the sauce permeated deep into my flesh as low rumbles of pleasure grew to shuddering bliss and occasional thunderclaps of pure sensation. Oses worked to stretch my ass with his fingers as he mouthed my mound, letting me know there was so much more fun in store later. He was extremely careful to make sure he ate up all the sauce before it could drip down where his fingers twisted and plumbed.

  I never got a taste of the rasgrul, but I know I absolutely love it. I’m thinking of keeping a bowl on my bedside table for my bed partners’ midnight snacking needs.

  Mine wasn’t the only unhappy sigh when the last of it was lapped from my trembling flesh. Then Oses smiled brightly at the still-covered bowl on the bedside table. “Shall I open it?” he asked Betra.

  The Imdiko grinned from ear to ear. “Absolutely. However, that one is Shalia’s dessert. Now that her dinner has had time to settle, she might be ready to indulge herself – and us.”

  I crooked a brow at the big, naughty boy. “What are you up to now?”

  Oses took the cover off and sniffed the contents. “Oh, I see.” His smile leered as evilly as Betra’s. “It’s chocolate sauce for you to pour on us.”

  Betra stood and peeled his clothes off. “Right on the first guess.”

  He lay down next to me on the bed and stretched luxuriously. His cocks jutted towards the ceiling, thick and ready. My, my, they would look and taste wonderful with a coating of chocolate.

  I sat up and beckoned for the bowl. “Give me that.”

  Oses obligingly handed me the bowl. The chocolate sauce was dark and smelled divine. This was going to be so good. I gave him an arch look.

  “I expect you to be ready for your turn as soon as I’m finished with Betra,” I said.

  Oses’ eyes widened. “Feeling assertive, are you?”

  “I’ve been offered chocolate and cinnamon dicks. I’m hormonal with fierce cravings, and this one is now at the top of my list. Don’t make the moody pregnant lady get mean.”

  Oses laughed. I mean, he really laughed with unabashed humor. When was the last time I’d heard him do that? I couldn’t remember.

  He stood and bowed deeply. “As you wish, Matara. In deference to your condition, I am yours to command.”

  Seeing I would be properly obeyed, I turned back to Betra. The Imdiko’s smile was as big as ever as he waited. Someone was looking forward to being munched on.
