They helped each other wash up, dry off, and then they fell into bed. Hades cock was still hard and in need of more relief. Doc slid down on the bed until she was eye level with his one eyed snake. A shiny drop glistened on the end of it as Hades anticipated what her next move would be. He almost shot his load when he felt her hot wet tongue slide over the end of his cock to taste the his pre cum. Her mouth closed over the head of his penis and she sucked in hard making him groan with need.
He could only hope she would never stop. She moved back and forth taking him way back into her throat. Her teeth lightly scraped him, but it only excited him more. One hand cupped his balls rolling them gently and making him shiver with delight. Her other hand stroked his thigh so softly it was like a whisper making his whole body feel more sensitive. She moved faster and faster, her head bobbed up and down and she used her tongue to stroke the underside of his cock while she sucked in making her mouth fit him tightly. Pleasure blossomed ever brighter until he tingled all over and his balls were drawn up tight, right before he felt his cum shoot into her mouth. He felt her swallow stream after stream of his seed until he had no more left to give. She continued sucking just a little while longer as he jerked with every pull of her mouth on his now spent cock.
He would have returned the favor but she pushed on his chest to keep him in place. “Sh, Baby. Just hold me while I sleep. I’m too tired for anything else.” Doc curled up against him and he wrapped himself around her. Never had he imagined he would feel so at peace or have such happiness even when their world was still so troubled. She was everything he had ever wanted and a few things he needed that he never would have thought to ask for. He closed his eyes to sleep and whispered, “Mine,” as he fell into a deep restful sleep.
She fell asleep wrapped in his secure warmth. It wasn’t long before the dream came back picking right up where it left off. It was something she had always found funny, the way you could live through weeks in a single night of dreams. She was back with Carl Riddle living through that doomed relationship once again. They dated for only a few weeks, but the feelings on both their parts had seemed intense. He said he loved her, wanted to marry her, but he continued to push her toward Origin even after she made it clear they held no appeal to her.
Their love affair was running out of control, too much passion caused confusion. She didn’t know if he wanted her for himself or if he was simply pursuing her for the sake of the company he represented. Okay, that sounded crazy even to her. To think that a man would marry a woman just to get her to sign on with the company he worked for, that was just showed she was going a little nuts trying to figure this relationship out.
Maybe the truth was halfway in the middle. He loved her and loved the company he worked for. It made sense that if she worked for Origin, they would see more of each other. They would have more money, because Origin paid well, better than anyone else could even think of paying. She would just tell him that she cared about him, but she would never work for his company. She would find out how much he really cared.
A few days later, she sat at the bar crying in her beer. The fight had been ugly, he had accused her of thinking she was too good for Origin and therefore, too good for him. How did one mean the other? He was obsessed with the company he worked for and willing to do anything to climb up the corporate ladder. His dream was to someday be a vice president and he said he could do it with her at his side. That part of his dream would never be fulfilled. Origin gave her the heebie jeebies for many reasons. Aggressive hiring tactics, skirting the edge of ethics, and attempting experiments that should be illegal were just some of the things they did. If she’d been in a position to oppose them, she would have.
She thought he might call her or come see her to figure out where they stood, but she never saw him again. She supposed that told her exactly where they stood and how he felt about her. She woke up to a wet spot on her pillow. She moved her hand to her eye, feeling the tear that fell to join the others on her pillow. Her dream had taken her back as if it had happened yesterday. She had gotten over Carl, she didn’t hurt over him anymore and now that she was awake and her head clear, the tears stopped. Hades woke, she heard him take a deep breath before he reached for her.
“You’re crying, what’s wrong?”
“I just had a bad dream about someone in my past.”
“Someone who hurt you,” he said.
“Yes, and I want to tell you, but I’m afraid of how you might react.”
“An old lover,” he said it as a fact.
“Yes.”
“I’m not sure I want to know about him. Is he someone I might meet?”
“It’s Carl Riddle.”
“You and he were lovers?” Hades growled. This wasn’t going well, not that she’d expected it to.
“It was years ago when I was in my last year of residency. I worked at a hospital as a medical doctor, but I did research as well. He was a recruiter for Origin, it was before I was sure they had done anything criminal. I just had a bad feeling about them so I refused to sign on. I’m not sure if he dated me to influence me to work for them or if he really cared but wanted me there so we’d be together even at work. I refused to work for Origin even when he said if I loved him I would take the job. Of course I told him if he loved me, he wouldn’t ask. He left me that day and I’ve not seen or heard from him.”
“So you think we will run into him now?”
“It looks like it is possible. If he’s caught and brought to Olympus, I don’t want you blindsided.”
“You loved him. Do you love him still?”
“I love you and no other male but you.”
Hades smiled. “Show me!”
Doc rolled over and straddled him. His olive eyes glowed with desire as her hands stroked his sculptured chest. She leaned down capturing his lips in a slow tender kiss that just kept getting hotter. Her hands moved up to his small male nipples, tugging and lightly pinching. He growled and jerked in response making her slide down to join their bodies. She had so many things in mind to do to him but time was a consideration. She reached between them with one hand as she leaned on him with the other. She grasp his hard cock, stroking it a couple times enjoying the feel of the silken flesh that covered his hard rod. She moved it to her slick opening and slid down his heated length. It seemed she was always primed and ready when he was near.
She rocked back and forth until he was all in and they moaned together at the feeling of being fully joined. She started moving faster and threw her head back in total abandon. He moved his hips up as she moved down, coming together hard. She felt the sizzle of the building orgasm, he almost seemed to throb inside her. Nothing had ever felt like the two of them coming together as one. Faster and harder she moved on top of him, his hands at her hips urged her to move even faster.
“Aw, fuck Baby. I’m going to cum,” Hades gasped as he moved his finger to her clit to torment it. It was almost as if he pressed a secret button. She froze as her pussy clenched his rock hard cock before she screamed out her pleasure. She jerked in a frenzy as waves of pleasure washed over her. He was right behind her as he roared and his body arched completely off the bed and she just clung to him, weak and almost dizzy in the wake of the rapture they had shared.
They lay there, their breath coming in gasps and pants. Her heart beat so hard it threatened to beat right out of her chest. Life was just crazy and exciting with this god she had found. She hoped that she never came face to face with Carl Riddle again. Not because she had any feelings for him, but because he might cause Hades pain. Regardless of her preferences, she had a bad feeling deep in her gut that it wouldn’t be long before they met face to face. It was probably because of Carl’s likely involvement in the locations they had been checking out and the trap that had been laid at the last one.
It was time to get up, check on the guys, get out of the hotel, and hopefully find a decent place to get some breakfast. Steak and eggs with a pot of coffee just for her sounded pretty nice
. It was a shame few places put the carafes full of coffee on the table where you could serve yourself any more. Waitresses rarely kept up with her need for coffee when she was like this. She was edgy, nervous, and needed caffeine.
They were ready to leave their room in record time taking their bags with them. Dione and Erebus were the two she worried about the most. If they had needed her, they would have called so she didn’t worry too much. They opened the door before she knocked. Zot had stayed with Dione and he said he had slept all night only waking briefly once. She woke him now to see how he was doing.
Dione groaned, she was sure he hurt all over but his headache had to be terrible. “Can you speak?”
“Hell, yes, but I’d rather not.”
“I think he’s getting better if he’s well enough to complain. Here’s some pain meds for him. Zot, get him a drink and make sure he swallows these. It’s also an anti inflammatory. I’m going to check on Erebus.”
She and Hades went next door, but this time they knocked. Zot answered the door, his long hair in disarray. He wore the shorts Doc was use to seeing on the gods and nothing else. He was attractive, traffic stopping if he stood where women could see. They all were when they weren’t beat all to hell like the other three were. She could enjoy the view, but she had everything she needed in her own big god.
He stepped aside letting them in. “How did Erebus do overnight?” Doc asked.
“He slept well only moaning once in a while when he moved in his sleep,” Zot said.
She moved over to the bed where Erebus still lay. Someone had put him in the shorts the gods all wore. She checked out the wound seeing it had already started healing. It was faster than a regular human, but just noticeably so. It still had a long way to go but she was happy that there was no bleeding and no signs of infection. The relief she felt was overwhelming and they were ready to head home.
A long trip with four rowdy gods, even when two were wounded and you had an intimidating mate to calm them down, was no picnic. She slept a lot of the way, but she no longer dreamed of Carl. She felt guilty for being involved with someone that had been so pivotal for a company like Origin even though he probably hadn’t known what they were doing at the time. Now that she had come clean with Hades, she hoped it wouldn’t come back to bite her in the ass. Sierra and Way knew, they had known when it had happened, they had held her hand while she cried her heart out. Now she realized he had done her a favor by letting her go.
They were nearly to Olympus where they would have some of their questions answered. Doc wanted to know who had been killed and left in that house. Was it the god they had searched for? How were the other teams doing and what had they found. What had Sierra done with Lizzy and Nancy? Just a little longer and she would know. She snuggled up against her sexy god. She would try to smell him but the wind blew through the doors taking all scents away. She could only feel his warmth and that would have to be good enough. He pulled her into his arms tighter, putting a sweet kiss on her forehead. She relaxed in his arms, maybe she should take a quick nap before they arrived. They would be in a meeting for hours she was sure.
So much was happening so quick she could hardly wrap her head around it and when she had spoken to Sierra last she had implied she had a lot to tell them too. Not all of it was mission related, she had hinted leaving her to wonder if it was about family or friends. The sounds of the helicopter that had annoyed her in the past was becoming familiar. It lured her into a shallow sleep.
Chapter 9
Past Practice
Sierra looked at the tear stained faces of the two cousins. Once confronted and convinced of their grandma’s death, they had admitted to everything they had done and told the little they knew. It was sad that Origin had taken advantage of the two young women and cheated them out of the chance to share the last days of their grandma’s life with her and each other. The saddest thing was they had been targeted because of a relative working for Origin. He had been in charge of getting intel on the gods and had used his own family to do so. He was a cousin to both Nancy and Lizzy so he knew they were good cooks and had a good chance of being selected for employment by the gods.
Neither had wanted to go along with his schemes so he had abducted his own grandma. At least the poor woman hadn’t known it. She thought she was just visiting her grandson for an extended stay. Both had a high likelihood of finding a mate among the gods and they had been coerced, but could they ever be trusted fully? Sierra gave them each an opportunity to stay if they were willing to wear an armband. It had a watch and looked perfectly innocuous, but it tracked their every move and the gods could also listen in and even had a limited view of what was happening at the moment if the camera was activated. The choice was simple: wear it or leave. She had to admit her surprise when they both chose to stay.
“You understand that the armband monitors and tracks you? It limits your privacy.”
“I understand.”
“Me too.” They both agreed.
“You two may go back to whatever you were doing. If Origin contacts you again, we need to know. If anything comes up that causes you concern, we need to know. Do both of you understand?” They both nodded, maybe they were too overwhelmed with all they had found out to talk. Sierra stood and walked to the door. She opened it and both ladies exited. The reaction to the death of their grandma had been pure, raw pain. She supposed someone trained to deceive might have pulled that off, but she didn’t think so. It washed off both of them in waves so hard, it brought tears to her eyes as well.
Lizzy had shown her a picture of her and Nancy with her grandma in younger days. The love between them was clear to see. Origin just kept adding to their list of crimes. Sometimes Sierra wondered if it would ever end. She collapsed back into her seat to decide what to do next. A knock at the door interrupted again. This was not a good day to attempt to tame her pile of paperwork. Some might think Zeus just gave her enough work to feel useful, but she had at least ten hours of steady work to do each day.
“Come in,” she said.
The door opened and Zeus peaked in.
“Since when do you bother to knock?” she asked him.
“I knew you were in with Nancy and Lizzy and I didn’t want anything to do with that. I wasn’t sure if you were done yet.”
“Impeccable timing as always. They just left.”
“Will they stay or go?”
“It surprises me, but they both want to stay.”
“Are we making a mistake?”
“We can watch every move they make. If Origin contacts them, we’ll know when they do. I don’t see how we can lose.”
“I hope our trust isn’t misplaced. If they mate a god, he will demand the bands come off.”
“If they mate a god, he’ll be all up in their business and he’ll please them so well, they will give him their loyalty before all others.”
Zeus growled, “Is that how I make you feel?” Desire lit up his eyes as he stalked up to her. He pulled her into his arms as he waited for her answer.
“Nothing but Athena comes before you. Nothing. You are all I want in a male, all I need.”
Zeus breathed in deeply and scented the need she had mentioned. He wanted to take her right there on her desk even though so much was going on and he knew it wasn’t a good idea. He dropped his mouth onto hers to kiss her with unleashed passion. He claimed her mouth so she wouldn’t forget who she belonged to. He was losing the fight to hold back his need when there was a knock on the door.
He paused a moment to regain control of himself. “Come in,” he said, his voice strong and clear.
“Hades and his team has just arrived,” Jupiter said as he gave them a knowing look. “You said you wished to be informed as soon as they landed.” The young gods were doing a good job of stepping into positions left empty by those on a mission. It hadn’t been easy, but Zeus had made them understand that they needed to earn their place and gain respect before they went on missions to the outside. Jupiter act
ed and looked nothing like an average fifteen year old. He could be in his twenties judging by looks and behavior.
It was like a flashback in time for Zeus since Jupiter resembled his younger self. Jupiter left to meet Hades team and escort them back to Zeus. It hadn’t been as crazy for him and the other young gods as he’d expected. The only thing that really pissed him off was when some of the others called him and the others found with him baby gods. He knew originally they hadn’t intended it as an insult or even in a teasing manner, but only as a way to categorize them. Nevertheless, once they realized it aggravated some of his guys, a few of them had rubbed it in. War had been declared and those few gods had the wrath of the young gods brought down on their heads.
Some of Zeus’s gods were finding surprises in their beds, problems with certain furniture items, and wardrobe malfunctions. Who knew itching powder could be gotten so easily and used with such great results? Jupiter heard a yell followed with cussing as he walked past the room of one of the god’s that had made their shit list. A ghost of a smile crossed his face before it disappeared as if it had never been there.
He continued to the end of the hall where he waited a few minutes until Hades and his team appeared. Hades’s mate was hot, all the mates he had met were. He couldn’t wait until someday he met his mate, but not too soon. He wanted to sample all that the world had to offer first.
“Hello, glad to see you survived your mission. Zeus ask that I escort you to him,” Jupiter said.
“Lead on,” Hades answered.
Zeus and Sierra waited in the meeting room alone. Doc and Sierra rushed to each other to hug. They had tears in their eyes. Zeus and Hades looked at each other and their eyes met. They would never understand females and they weren’t going to try. They would just love them, enough said.
“Bring us up to date,” Zeus said. “We’ll fill you in next.”
“There’s nothing new to tell you. We’ve kept you up on everything as soon as we could. As you can see, Dione got the worst of it, Erebus second, and Aaron next. We all had some bruises, but we were lucky. Those explosives were set to kill. Any word yet on the bodies?”
