It was a slow day at Zenarr Inc. and Kaysa was definitely feeling the boredom. All her couriers had completed their runs successfully and on time, surprisingly. She'd completed inventory on everything that had come in and all she had left to do now, was spin around in her chair and twiddle her thumbs, which she had been doing for the past half an hour.
Kaysa hated being kept waiting and that didn't hold true only for business matters, but all aspects of life. It would be a month before she married Rennor and probably longer to get ahold of some of his creds. Her anxiety began building as she thought about how long that might take, then she thought about how long her son actually had to live. This was one of those situations where her impatience was more than justified. If she just told Rennor about her predicament, maybe... Kaysa grimaced and shook her head slowly as the consequences of doing that came to mind. Rennor would probably dump her immediately for withholding such an important matter, which meant she'd either have to find another means of getting the creds, or her son would die.
"Dammit, where is she?" Kaysa hissed under her breath as she glanced at the chronometer on her desk. Her frustrations were growing by the minute as the situation she found herself in began to seem more dire, and Shiv's tardiness was only adding to her aggravations.
"Fuck this!" Kaysa spat as she punched at the keypad of her comm device and waited for a reply. She'd been kept waiting long enough and her patience had become nonexistent by now.
She began biting her lip and cursing under her breath as she waited, and waited. Today wasn't the day to get on her bad side; the tension and anxiety mounted the longer she sat in her office with nothing to do but think about her son and all her other worries. For Shiv's sake, she hoped the girl answered her call soon. After all, she needed someone to take her aggressions out on.
From a far distant place the bleating started. A constant signal, intoning with a ferocity born of far too many drinks the previous night. Consciousness slowly returned, the nagging beep sounding even more loud and oppressive. It took another moment for Shiv's mind to wake up enough to realize she was on Kaysa's couch again, and somewhere the comm was calling.
Last night's activities returned like a tide rolling up the shore of a sandy beach. She'd read the news after making a quick in-system run for Kaysa. Kaysa was marrying! Kaysa was going to be marrying some guy. It had hurt so badly. She didn't even know that Kaysa was involved in a serious relationship. From everything she'd said, Kaysa sounded like she despised men...and now this? It had hurt, and the only way to numb the pain was through drinking. And, Shiv had drunk.
Again it hit her that she was on Kaysa's couch, and she wondered how she even had managed to stagger back to the apartment. She opened her eyes as once again, the comm shouted for her attention.
Shit! Work! The contract!!
Shiv came awake with a start, and tried her hardest to push away the pounding headache that settled in with a ferocity like nothing else. She rolled over and sat up. Kaysa was calling. That's who was on the comm. Calling to find out where she was, what was taking her so long. Shiv bolted to her feet, covers still wrapped tightly around her naked body and ran toward the comm unit. She stumbled over her pile of discarded clothing, just barely avoiding falling on her face. The covers, wrapped tightly around her went taut, and yanked her backward. She didn't have time for this.
Dammit, she cursed herself and unraveled herself from the sheet and blanket, leaving them behind. Once on her feet again, she ran for the comm. She reached it, out of breath and panting. She hit the button to connect the call and immediately found herself looking at a very upset Kaysa. Her heart pounded, not from the exertion, but from seeing the face of the woman she wanted more than anything in life. "Oh gods, Kaysa," she stammered before the woman giving her shelter and work could speak. "I'm so sorry. I had a rough night last night, and I overslept. I'll be right over. I'm so so sorry."
Kaysa tried to keep her eyes from glancing at Shiv's very naked breasts engulfing the screen, but she couldn't overcome the temptation and took a long look at them. Not a bad set, she thought to herself as she returned her gaze to Shiv's face, scrutinizing her and making certain her facial expression was one of blatant disapproval. "Shiv, I've been waiting over thirty minutes. Now if you don't get your ass over here in ten, this contract becomes nullified. Got it?" Kaysa asked before interrupting and giving Shiv another scolding. "And I would really appreciate it if you didn't walk around my apartment naked. It just isn't appropriate."
Shiv brought her arms up and crossed them over her breasts. She looked away, anger and hurt welling up inside. She clenched and unclenched her jaw as she tried to force the sudden tightness in her chest away. Finally, she looked at Kaysa and nodded. "Okay," she said. "I'll be right over, in five."
"Good," Kaysa replied curtly as she gave Shiv a tight smile. "Just remember to put some clothes on first, alright?" she added, more seriously than sarcastically, before closing the comm channel.
"Yeah, sure Kaysa," Shiv said after the channel was closed. "Actually I was just thinking of walking through downtown Commerce City stark naked. Give all the girls and boys a little thrill." She shook her head as she moved to rifle through her clothes. She grabbed a pair of tight breeches and shirt that left plenty of skin exposed. She stopped at the door and pulled on her boots.
After a quick glance in the mirror to make sure she was presentable, she rushed out the door and sprinted toward Zenarr Inc. Running in her boots was difficult, the extra centimeters of height they gave her made that sort of movement quite awkward.
But, at four minutes after disconnecting from Kaysa, Shiv burst through the front doors of Zenarr Inc. She was out of breath and exhausted, but she made it.
She saw Kaysa scowling at her. "I'm so sorry, Kaysa," she said quickly. "I was out late last night, and I overslept. It won't happen again. I'll be early from now on."
"Sit down," she said firmly. Her eyes followed Shiv as she made her way to the chair. She could smell the liquor on her breath from where she was sitting and Kaysa sighed quite audibly. "I think I'll have to make that another term in our contract," Kaysa said, staring at Shiv intensely. "No drinking the day of or before a run. The last thing I need is one of my drunken couriers colliding with a small asteroid and spilling my precious cargo into space."
Shiv shook her head. "I had a rough night last night," she said. "I needed a drink, and that drink had friends. I got some bad news yesterday...and I needed to get drunk. I'll take a couple detox tabs, and I'll be fine." She looked away as she felt the sting of more tears that hadn't been shed yesterday. She clenched her fists tight driving her fingernails into her palms, using that pain to drive the pain in her heart away. "I'm sorry."
Kaysa softened her gaze and smiled gently at Shiv. She knew she'd been giving Shiv a hard time and with her almost at tears now, Kaysa couldn't help but feel a little guilty. "Look, it's ok, Shiv. I didn't mean to go off on you like that. If something was wrong, why didn't you tell me about it? I'm not just your boss, I'm your friend and if something's going on with you, don't hesitate to confide in me."
Shiv looked up at Kaysa and tried to smile. "Well, with the upcoming wedding," she said, "I didn't want to bother you. And, I figured you'd be busy making plans, or spending time with your fiancé. So, it was just easier to go get plowed." Hadn't Kaysa told her the other day that they basically weren't friends? Just boss and employee? It didn't matter. Maybe she did want to be a friend. Maybe something more. "I just thought you'd be too busy with plans and stuff."
"I'm never too busy for one of my employees, Shiv. Your happiness is important to me, because of the fact that you work more effectively when you're happy. Now, come on," Kaysa said, pouting playfully, "cheer up. How can I make you smile again?"
Shiv felt her mouth twist into a smile, regardless of her feelings. Drop your fiancé and fall in love with me, she thought. She knew she couldn't say it, but it still helped to make the smile more genuine. "Something to get rid of a headache would help," she said. As she watched her, she renewed her vow to make Kaysa love her, want her. She needed Kaysa in her life, needed Kaysa in her bed. She felt her body getting warm, her excitement suddenly building. "Getting rid of this headache would definitely put a smile on my face." And, there's another ache that you can help me with, one that would put a huge smile on my face. Please help me with that ache, Kaysa.
Kaysa laughed softly and leaned back in her chair. "Well, I don't have anything on me, but I think a nice walk with some fresh Commerce City air might clear up that headache. I could use one myself, just to ease some tension, so," Kaysa said as she reached into her drawer and pulled out a datapad, "just sign this, and we can go."
Shiv took the datapad and stylus and put her name where Kaysa indicated. She looked up and grinned at her boss. "I guess that makes it official now," she said. "I'm all yours."
"You certainly are," Kaysa replied quietly as she held the datapad tightly in her hands. "You didn't even read the contract, Shiv. You have that much faith in me?" she asked with a smile.
Shiv grinned. "Of course I do," she said. "You just said you're my friend, right? Besides, if you screw me over"--a thin dagger seemed to appear out of nowhere with a flourish of Shiv's hand, and then just as quickly disappeared--"I could just kill you." She grinned at Kaysa, a grin filled with humour and a hidden love.
Her eyes held a respect and admiration, possibly something more. Her body was completely relaxed, unthreatening. In that moment, she truly seemed the young girl. Her manner and expression showed an innocence and naiveté, a trust that defied explanation.
"Kill me?" Kaysa asked with a feigned expression of shock. "I'm far too charming for anyone to even think of killing me." Kaysa laughed and rose from her seat. She enjoyed Shiv's company and her humour was refreshing, as well as much needed considering everything weighing down upon her at that moment. In three days, she'd gotten engaged, lost a man she loved, and found out her son was dying. Even the thought of it all was overwhelming and reminded Kaysa just how much she did need that walk. "So, shall we go then?"
Shiv laughed. "Yes," she said, "a walk sounds great. And, you are far too charming." Shiv moved over to the door and glanced out while Kaysa came out from behind her desk. As she approached the door, Shiv glanced at her and forced a smile. "Congratulations. On your engagement. It's really great." Her throat felt tight, and while there were no tears she did feel ready to cry. She took a deep breath and let it out as she pushed the door open and they stepped out into the city.

"Yeah...great," Kaysa muttered as she followed Shiv out. "I was pretty shocked when it happened. I didn't even see it coming, but when the opportunity presented itself, I took it." Kaysa moved alongside Shiv and sighed deeply. Even mention of her engagement caused her to bristle and grit her teeth. She hadn't thought of the longterm consequences of her proposing to Rennor; it hadn't clued into her that she would actually have to marry the man and become his wife. She only wanted the creds and didn't care how she got them, but now it was all beginning to sink in. The ring around her finger felt like a weight pulling her down and a reminder of what she'd gotten herself into. "I'm such an idiot," she vocalized unintentionally as they headed down the road.
Shiv wanted to reach out, to hold Kaysa. To comfort her and make things better. She could see that the engagement wasn't a happy thing. It delighted her to know that, but Kaysa's happiness was more important right now. Hesitantly, as they walked, she put a hand on Kaysa's shoulder. She'd read the announcement in the news clips yesterday, and had checked out Rennor Karradas. He was incredibly rich, and seeing Kaysa now clicked things into place. "You're not an idiot," she said gently. "I mean, if you get his money, that's good, right? That is why you're marrying him? I mean, I can tell you don't love him, and that you're not happy about marrying him. So, it's for the money, right?"
Kaysa swung her head around to face Shiv and pulled away quickly. "And what do you know of love, Shiv?" Kaysa's words sounded harsh even to herself and she immediately wished she could have retracted her statement. "Sorry. You...you caught me offguard there. You're far too smart for your own good, you know that?" Kaysa smiled uneasily and narrowed her eyes at Shiv, who now intrigued her more than ever. "Do you think what I'm doing is wrong? Do you think I'm a cold, heartless bitch?"
Shiv shook her head. "No, not at all," she said hurriedly. "I read that he was rich, and you don't look like you want to marry him. I guess it just made sense to me. And, I guess if Rennor Karradas dies in a horrible accident and all his money goes to his poor, shattered widow, it makes it very convenient." She smiled. "I don't think you're a cold, heartless bitch. I think you're practical and smart. And, I think it's the best way to deal with a man." She gave Kaysa a sly smile.
A grin spread across Kaysa's face as she gazed at Shiv. The girl was sharp, intelligent, and knew far too much about Kaysa than she cared to admit. "You've pretty much got it figured out, now haven't you?" Kaysa said as she moved closer to Shiv and grabbed her arm firmly. "But that's not exactly the kind of thing I want other people finding out about, as you can probably understand. If somehow that kind of information got back to Rennor, I'd be ruined. You don't want that, now do you? I wouldn't be a very happy person if that did happen," Kaysa said in a calm, steady voice, even though her eyes displayed clearly the threat underlying her words.
Shiv's eyes narrowed as she held Kaysa's gaze. "You don't have to threaten me," she said. "I'm not telling anyone, and I wouldn't go to Rennor with that. I'm on your side, Kaysa. I'd never betray you, ever. I couldn't do something like that to you. You gave me a job and a place to stay. I want to be your friend, and a friend wouldn't do that to you." She covered Kaysa's hand with hers and gently tried to pry it free. "I'd never betray you, Kaysa." I couldn't do that to someone I love.
Kaysa cocked an eyebrow at Shiv, impressed as well as wary of her boldness. "Very good. I'm glad you feel that way," Kaysa said as she freed Shiv's arm from her grasp. "As long as you understand that to cross me would be unwise, then we should have no trouble being friends." Kaysa smiled pleasantly as she stepped away from Shiv and motioned for her to follow. "Come on. I think we could both use that walk."
Shiv smiled. "I couldn't agree more," she said as she fell in step next to Kaysa. As they walked, she watched Kaysa out of the corner of her eye. "I'm sorry about earlier. I wasn't wearing anything when I was sleeping, and I tried to wrap the covers around me to get to the comm, but they snagged. I figured answering right then naked was better than spending who knows how long trying to untangle the covers."
"It's ok, Shiv, really," Kaysa said assuringly. "I wasn't really angry about that. It was just a case of poor timing. I was angry to begin with and I grabbed the first opportunity I had to lash out at someone, and that someone happened to be you. I don't mind you going around naked when you're not in my presence, just try not to answer the door like that, ok?"
Shiv laughed. "Well, if I did, I'm sure I'd give someone a thrill. But, I won't. And, I'll keep my clothes on when I'm not in the shower or asleep." She glanced down at her sparse top and laughed. "Well, as on as possible."
"It's good that you aren't ashamed of your body. You're a beautiful young woman, and you certainly have an asset you can use to your advantage. You should be proud of that," Kaysa said as she placed a hand on Shiv's back and led her towards a small café. "I could teach you a lot if you gave me the chance. You've got a lot of potential, Shiv, in many respects."
Kaysa's hand against her bare skin felt electric, wonderful. The contact was exhilarating, and, mixed with the compliment, sent Shiv's heart soaring. "Thank you," she said as they approached the building. "I'd really like that, Kaysa. I want that. I'll be a good student." She grinned, holding back a laugh. "Whatever chances you want, you've got them. I'd love to learn from you." Her excitement was nearly bubbling over. The chance that Kaysa would teach her, that she could be as good as her friend and boss, her mentor. It was too good to be true. She knew she could only ever aspire to be like Kaysa, and then only a pale comparison. But, to be molded and shaped by the woman she idolized, it was a dream come true. "You have no idea how much this means to me."
"It's not that big of an honour, Shiv. Trust me. All I can teach you is how to use your body to get what you want. Being a tease and a slut is not something to be proud of, but at least it gets you ahead in this male dominated universe." Kaysa removed her hand from Shiv's back and motioned towards the little café they were approaching. "What do you think? We can get you some breakfast there if you want."
Shiv glanced at the café and nodded. "Sure. Looks good." She grinned as they entered and found seats away from the rest of the crowd. "Getting ahead is important. And putting women back on top is even more important. And, if using my body helps you and Zenarr Inc., then it's worth the loss of pride." She watched Kaysa for a moment and then grinned again. "Though, I think I'll probably do more teasing than slutting. I mean, I might be able to kiss a man, maybe let him feel me up, but I don't know if I could actually...you know. They're all so rude and full of themselves, and domineering. I have never met a man who wasn't like that. They're all jerks."
"So, you've never been with a man then?" Kaysa asked inquisitively as she signalled the waiter to come over. "Are you...a virgin then. I mean, it's nothing to be ashamed of if you are. In fact, I'd say that's quite an achievement. I lost my virginity when I was sixteen and I've regretted it since."
Shiv felt her cheeks going red. "I'm not exactly a virgin," Shiv said. "And, no, I haven't been with a man." She quickly looked up at the waiter, smiled, and gave him her order. She knew the conversation was moving onto shaky ground, but she'd do her best to not scare Kaysa away.
"Hmm..." Kaysa mused as she scanned Shiv's face. She didn't quite know what the girl was getting at and she certainly had Kaysa puzzled. "Not exactly a virgin but you've not been with a man? I don't quite understand, but then again, maybe I don't want to," Kaysa said with a smile as the waiter rushed off with their orders. "You're a very peculiar person, you know that? I mean, I'm usually good at pinning down a person, figuring out exactly who they are and what they're all about, but I'm having trouble doing that with you, Shiv. Maybe if I get you nice and drunk, I can get you to leak certain information about yourself."
Shiv laughed. "Oh, I'm sure you'd learn quite a few interesting things about me," she said with a sly grin. "Just don't let me dance topless on the table." Shiv looked at her fork for a few moments before looking up. She didn't know how Kaysa would react to what she was going to say. Hopefully she wouldn't be disgusted. Hopefully. "I've never been with a guy, but I have had sex...with a girl."
Kaysa sat motionless for a moment as her eyes stared vacantly at Shiv. "You..." Kaysa attempted to utter, despite her tongue suddenly refusing to co-operate. She cleared her throat and looked to the napkin next to her plate on the table instead of continuing to gawk at Shiv. As she began playing with the white cloth nervously, she managed to regain her ability to speak enough to squeak out one of the many questions that were on her mind, "I know you said once you'd been with a woman, but I didn't know it was in that capacity. Are you... So...what exactly are you saying, Shiv?"
Shiv swallowed. "My former partner? Lerrah? She and I were very close. She became my friend when I moved to Agarra and we did everything together. Being two years older, she knew quite a bit more than I did. One night, when I was fourteen, we ended up getting very frisky while our parents were away. One thing led to another and we ended up making love. She's the only person I've ever been with. Since we broke up, I've been so busy with trying to keep from starving, I haven't had a chance to even look for any companionship or anything." Finally, she looked up from her fork and shrugged. "So, that's the sordid story of my love life."
Kaysa took a deep breath as she tried to process everything she'd heard. Was Shiv saying that she preferred women? She vaguely remembered discussing the same topic with her the night of their confrontation with that drunk in the bar, but she never did get a clear answer. She didn't quite have one now either and was left, again, to interpret what she'd said on her own. Shiv had just said she'd slept with a woman, how much clearer could she have made things?
Kaysa suddenly felt uncomfortable and could feel Shiv's eyes on her. She placed her elbows on the table and consciously attempted to cover her breasts, somehow thinking that was exactly where Shiv's eyes were gazing. "You...you loved this Lerrah, then?" Kaysa asked hesitantly, not looking up from her fingers tugging nervously at the cloth.
Shiv nodded. "I did," she said. "Very much. I mean, I still do sorta. Though, if we were in the same room now, we'd probably scratch each other's eyes out. But, I did love her. I do love her." Shiv shrugged again. "I don't know."
"Well, I think I can sort of identify with that. I mean there was a man from my past whom I loved with all my heart and even though he left me, I know that if I were to see him again, I'd kick him in the balls, then I'd throw myself into his arms and never let him go."
Kaysa sat silently for a moment as she thought about what Shiv's revelation really meant. Of course she'd be watching Shiv with a wary eye from now on, but the girl hadn't given her even a remote indication that she was attracted to her. It wasn't as if Shiv was some horny, old man who got a hard-on by just thinking about a woman; this was Shiv, a woman herself and women, as Kaysa knew, were much more rational beings who were driven by passion rather than sexual desire.
Even if Shiv felt any sexual attraction towards her, Kaysa doubted she would act on it. Shiv looked up to her, admired her, not loved her. Kaysa found herself laughing quietly as she realized her reaction to Shiv's admission was more an over-reaction than anything, most likely a result of Kaysa's own arrogance. She knew she was beautiful and desirable; who wouldn't want to get into her pants, even a woman? But Shiv wasn't like that, not her.
"If you still love her, then that just proves how passionate and caring you truly are. To love someone who's hurt you makes you an extraordinary and compassionate person. It's very admirable of you, Shiv."
Shiv giggled. "I think I really loved the way she made me scream," she said. "But, that part of my life is over, and I've moved on. I don't think it could ever work with us again. Too many things were said that would make going back difficult...on both sides. I'm better off looking forward. And, if I find someone to fall in love with, I'll be a happy girl." She grinned at Kaysa in a way that she hoped didn't say that she'd already found that someone, and Kaysa was the one.

"So this someone will most likely be another girl then?" Kaysa asked as she watched the waiter approach the table and set down their orders. "I mean, I realize that you despise men, as do I, but I know I still couldn't live without a good fuck once in a while. Is it that fulfilling with another woman?"
Shiv smiled a wicked smile. "Well, I know how I like to be touched," she said. "I'm pretty sure that most other women are going to like the same things. If I do to them what I like having done to me, I know I can have them screaming with orgasms. A man can only go by how the woman responds; he doesn't have a cunt, so he's got no idea what it even feels like. I mean, you scream and he thinks he's done good. I know what makes me go supernova, and I'm pretty sure doing the same on my partner will make her go supernova too." Her expression turned slightly dreamy at remembered nights of passion in the arms of Lerrah. So long ago now, but the memories still carried a warmth...though a warmth nowhere near what Kaysa caused in her.
"I don't know if it'll be another woman," Shiv continued, lying, "but most likely it will be. Then again, I may never find love again. I hope I do." She kept her gaze on Kaysa, trying to not appear as hopeful as she was. Then she grinned. "Personally, I think I can make a better, more fulfilling orgasm than a man ever could."
"Oh, really?" Kaysa asked skeptically before taking a sip of her hot caffa. "You're quite experienced then? I suppose you don't need my help in better acquainting you with your female prowess. With that body, your looks, and your past experience, you'll be able to manipulate your way to the top in no time. I mean, you've got youth on your side as well, whereas I'm far past my prime, and older men have always had a penchant for young girls."
Shiv laughed. "You're hardly past your prime," she said. "You're a beautiful woman, Kaysa. And, that's an envious thing, not a dyke thing." She grinned. "You're definitely not past your prime."
"I never suggested you were a dyke!" Kaysa shot back quickly and somewhat defensively. "I mean, just because you've been with women before doesn't mean you're a dyke. Hell, I've been so drunk at times, I could have spent the night with a woman and to this day I wouldn't have known it," she added, a little more calmly now. "And, thank you for the compliment, but you don't have to suck up to the boss all the time. Once in a while wouldn't hurt, but excessive fawning does annoy me and today would not be a good day to annoy me."
"Right," Shiv said with a nod. "No annoying. And, I wasn't saying that you said I was a dyke. I just didn't want you to think, I was...you know. I just wanted to say that I do think you're attractive." She grinned, and added, "And, besides, I don't suck up."
"Well, good, because today isn't exactly the best day for that sort of thing. You think you had a rough night...well I've had three rough nights in a row." Kaysa smiled wryly and began stirring her finger around in her now cooled caffa. "I fucked things up majorly, Shiv," she said quietly with a sardonic laugh escaping her lips. "You may or may not look up to me, but either way, it's better that you don't. Man, I could really use something to drink other than this crap."
Shiv laughed. "I'm game for something stronger," she said. "Probably not that same place as before." She gave Kaysa another grin. She looked at her meal sitting before her, hardly touched. She wasn't that hungry for it anyway. "A nice bottle of fire rum, or maybe some chilled veskrella wine."
"I thought you got drunk last night? You don't have to accompany if you're not up to it, Shiv. After all, can't have my shining star dying of alcohol poisoning." Kaysa attempted a smile, but her anxieties were creeping up on her again and all she could muster was a frown. She had so much on her mind and was completely incapable of resolving her problems. Merrick was gone, her son was dying, and she was being forced to marry Rennor. Even the thought of those things was causing her chest to tighten. They occupied her every waking thought and were making her life absolutely miserable.
She was an emotional catastrophe who was near tears at one moment, and flying into a wild rage the next. At that moment she was feeling indifferent, but the churning in her stomach indicated she was beginning to lean towards melancholy. "Shiv...let's get outta here. I can't...I have to be somewhere else. It's too quiet in here and I need to be someplace where it's so loud, it's too distracting to think."
Shiv nodded and quickly signalled the waiter over. She paid for their meals with her credit chip and sent the young man scampering away. "I imagine there are some good loud places back by your place," she said. "We can go there if that's okay."
"Yeah...fine...whatever..." Kaysa mumbled as she threw down her napkin and rose from her seat.
They left the café together and started toward the Yallder district in silence.

When they entered a bar, one chosen at random, they quickly made their way to a table, ordering drinks from a passing waiter on the way. Once seated, Shiv looked over at Kaysa. "How's this," she said, having to raise her voice over all the noise.
"Loud enough," Kaysa shouted back as she began shifting her chair closer to Shiv's. "It'll be easier on our throats if we don't have to shout to each other the entire night," she said with a smile once her chair was next to Shiv's. "You won't be going on any runs for another week or so, so feel free to get completely drunk, Shiv. My treat."
Shiv laughed. "I like the sound of that," she said. The young man they'd given their order to on the way in brought a tray filled with drinks toward the table. When Shiv saw him, she grinned and said, "Intoxication, here I come."
The man gave them both an overly friendly smile as he laid out the alcoholic feast. "Enjoy," he said before departing. As he backed away, he let his gaze linger on both women.
Shiv grabbed one of the glasses, raised it up and looked at Kaysa. "To climbing out of the hell we've found ourselves in," she said.
"Or to living forever in drunken bliss," Kaysa replied as she tapped her glass against Shiv's and quickly tossed her drink back. Kaysa winced momentarily as the strong liquor stung her throat and her eyes began to tear up. "Wow," she whispered in a hoarse voice. The burning in her throat began to wear off and gave her a chance to savour the sweet aftertaste of the amber liquid. "That was damn good!" she said as she regained her ability to speak and quickly signalled the waiter to bring her another two. "I haven't gotten drunk in a while, Shiv. I think I really need it tonight."
The waiter appeared to chuckle and quickly disappeared back to get more drinks. As he did, Shiv tossed her drink down and slammed the glass back onto the table. The waiter had brought them three drinks each in his first pass, and with the two more he'd be bringing, Shiv knew they would be feeling very good, very soon.
"You must get drunk tonight," Shiv said. "It is an obligation. We both must, and then we can stagger home and pass out." She laughed and downed her second drink as the waiter approached with the new drinks. "Keep 'em coming," she said with a grin.
Kaysa swiftly grabbed her drink and let the liquid run smoothly down her throat. A wheezing cough seized Kaysa before the stinging in her throat subsided and she tossed her head back, laughing. "What is that stuff?!" she asked in amazement as the burning seemed to carry down into her stomach. "I like it!" Kaysa could feel her cheeks warming and her head buzzing. It was a nice feeling and she suspected it would feel even better if she downed more drinks, which she proceeded to do after signalling the waiter again. "So, Shiv, tell me something," Kaysa said as she leaned in closer and smiled mischievously at Shiv. "When you were with that woman, how did it feel?"
Shiv smiled as she thought back to the nights with Lerrah. "It felt like everything was right. There's nothing like being with a lover who knows right where to touch you. And, her body was soft and her lips were dreamy. Oh, I could kiss her for weeks, and never get tired. Sometimes, between runs, we'd just sit on the couch in the lounge and kiss. It always led to much more though. Soon, she'd be touching my breasts through my shirt and I'd have my hand under hers. She was so perfect." Shiv felt herself suddenly caught in Kaysa's gaze. Her breathing was shallow and her body was becoming an inferno with her arousal. "You're very much like her. Similar features, and beauty." She shook her head and laughed. "She quickly found what I liked, and sent me places I never dreamed of. And, I got good at sending her too. It was such a beautiful feeling to lie together afterwards, our bodies pressed close, and we were just there. Her and me, and nothing else. Have you ever had someone who really knew how to touch you, where to touch you? I mean truly know? Oh gods it's unbelievable."
Kaysa took a deep breath and sat back in her chair. She closed her eyes and focused on the thoughts and feelings Shiv's description awakened in her. "Yes...I think I know what you mean," Kaysa whispered as a smile curled her lips. "Cadwin was like that. It was like he could sense exactly where to touch me to evoke a response. Even just looking at me a certain way would set me off with him. Making love with him was...almost explosive." Kaysa sighed and felt the throbbing between her legs beginning as she thought back to the steamy nights of passion she shared with him. Her head was swimming with the cries of ecstasy that echoed through it and she could feel her body beginning to burn up. "He was...a wonderful lover," she breathed as her hands caressed her breasts and she bit her bottom lip to fight back the gentle moan that was rising in her throat.
Shiv couldn't take her eyes from Kaysa, her hands, her mouth, just the way she seemed to be alive with sexual energy. Her body was definitely reacting to Kaysa's arousal. Watching as Kaysa's hands caressed and touched her breasts caused Shiv's nipples to harden. And, between her legs, the throbbing warmth was growing. She quickly downed her last two drinks and turned back to watch Kaysa. She wanted to reach out and touch, to help her friend ease the fire suddenly burning. But, she knew her overtures would not be met with approval. "What's it like? To have a man's--"
Before she could finish, the waiter had returned with more drinks. He only stood staring at Kaysa's hands and face. "More drinks?" he whispered.
Kaysa gasped quietly and opened her eyes as the waiter's voice broke the spell. She took a deep breath to settle her racing heart and swallowed back the sensual emotions that had arisen within her. "Yes," she whispered breathlessly, "definitely more drinks." Kaysa turned to Shiv as the waiter nodded his head and rushed off. She could see the girl's cheeks were flushed and her chest was heaving as if she too had been pulled into Kaysa's erotic memories and had felt exactly what she had felt in those short moments of nostalgia. "Sorry. I didn't mean to get so caught up."
Shiv laughed. "It's okay," she said. "It was a good show. I think the waiter liked it too. And, except for the no release part, it's a wonderful feeling." She was feeling the beginnings of drunkenness and it felt nice. Her breathing, though still heavy, felt a little more normal, but the fire burning inside wasn't going out. She tried not to stare at Kaysa with unbridled lust, but it was difficult since that was exactly what she was feeling. "My hands are definitely gonna be busy tonight."
Kaysa let loose a shrill laugh that pierced through the loud music and sent all heads turning in their direction. Her hand dropped from her chest to Shiv's knee as she patted it amicably. "So that's what you do on my couch all night!" Kaysa took a deep breath and took up a drink in her other hand, tossing it back quickly. She slammed the glass down and turned her gaze back to Shiv. "Are you drunk yet?"
Shiv laughed and quickly downed another drink. "Almost," she said. "And, not all night. Just when I'm feeling very frisky. Are you?" She reached down and patted Kaysa's hand a couple times before letting her hand rest there. "I'm definitely feeling happy. And, the company's good. Everything is okay." She grinned. "Are you drunk, Kaysa?"
"Not quite," Kaysa replied as she slowly pulled her hand away and used it to signal the waiter back...yet again. "I don't know why he doesn't just bring us the bottle." Kaysa smiled at Shiv and could see her vision blurring as well as her body becoming extremely warm. She may not have been drunk yet, but she was close enough. "Shiv, I think you're gonna end up having to split the bill with me if we keep drinking like this."
"Gladly," Shiv said as the waiter stepped up to the table. She leaned toward him to make it easier for her to be heard. "Could we just get you to bring us a couple bottles?"
He gave Shiv a nod, and his face quickly broke into a grin as he realized he was getting a good look down the front of Shiv's top. He lingered a moment longer, just looking before he turned back toward the kitchen.
"That solves that," she said, turning back to Kaysa. "Now we can get really plastered, and we don't have to keep bothering him." She took Kaysa's hand into hers and held it as she looked into her eyes. "We have to do this more often. You and me, out drinking and just blowing off all the shit in life. Girl's Time."
"That's right!" Kaysa said rather loudly. "Just you and me tonight...drinking all our worries away. Men are the root of evil...until you get 'em into bed and screw their fucking brains out." Kaysa laughed again and began airing out the front of her shirt as the temperature in the bar seemed to shoot up. She removed her hand from Shiv's gentle grip and began struggling to pull off her jacket, fumbling with the sleeves. "It didn't take this much effort to put it on," Kaysa said in between fits of giggles.
Shiv giggled along with Kaysa as she watched her friend's struggles to remove her jacket. "Here," she said, reaching in to help. Her hands weren't quite as nimble as they usually were, but she managed to help Kaysa get one arm free of its sleeve prison. She reached around Kaysa in a near embrace to help with the other sleeve. Sitting as close as they were, Shiv found herself pressed against Kaysa's side and her face only a few centimeters from Kaysa's cheek. A warm flush ran through her body at the electric contact, but she couldn't stop her giggling. "They need to make clothing that's easier to get out of when you're drunk."
"That and when you're trying to have sex." Kaysa finally pulled her other arm free while she continued to laugh hysterically. She was definitely drunk, but was too far gone to even notice.

As the bottles of liquor arrived, Kaysa quickly swiped one from the waiter's hand and guzzled it down quickly, most of the liquid spilling down the sides of her mouth. "Oh that is damn good," Kaysa commented as she wiped a hand across her mouth. "Hey, Shiv, I'm in the mood to dance. C'mon, let's go find some hot guys to grind with." Kaysa unsteadily rose from her chair and grabbed Shiv by the hand. She took up the half empty bottle of liquor and began pulling Shiv along. "Maybe we can even get some of them to buy us more drinks," Kaysa said with great effort as her tongue tripped over every word.
Shiv let out a groan as she stumbled along behind Kaysa. She didn't want guys. She didn't even want girls. She wanted Kaysa. She only wanted Kaysa. She didn't want to come right out and say anything. She had to be subtle. Subtle like wrapping her arms around Kaysa to help her with her jacket. She burbled out a dry laugh at the thought. And, Kaysa hadn't even noticed. It was obvious subtle wasn't working, and Kaysa wasn't even aware of her attentions. And, Kaysa wasn't even attracted to her. The realization soured her drunkenness and brought with it the depression of realization. But, she let herself be dragged along anyway.
Kaysa looked back at Shiv and frowned at her unenthusiastic expression. "Oh, Shiv! Cheer up! There's some good ones here today and it's not even night yet." Kaysa laughed again as she stumbled over to the bar, towards a pair of men who had been eyeing her and Shiv since they left their seats. They both had dark hair and looked quite young, but that never stopped Kaysa. She was after their bodies and as long as they had firm chests and tight asses, there was a good chance she would be bringing them home with her. "You can have the one on the left, Shiv," Kaysa whispered over her shoulder. She kept her gaze on the men and smiled at the one nearest her who was already checking her out from top to bottom. "Come on, Shiv, don't be shy," Kaysa shot back as she tugged Shiv along harder.
"Yeah, Shiv," the one on the left said as Kaysa and Shiv approached, "don't be shy." He gave both Kaysa and Shiv a smile and motioned them to the stools next to him and his friend. "You ladies look like you could use a drink. Pax, whatever they want, on my tab." He motioned them closer, his eyes on Shiv as he patted the barstool next to him. "I'm Dev, and my friend his Lam."
Shiv eyed the stool warily, but moved to sit on it at Kaysa's urging. As Pax, the bartender, set the drink on the bar next to her, she slammed half of it back quickly. She felt uneasy without Kaysa next to her, near her. She was on the other side of Lam though. Too far away.
"So," Dev said with his ever-present grin, "what are your names?"
"I'm Kaysa and the shy one's Shiv." Kaysa put down her bottle and picked up the drink that had appeared next to her and slowly drank it down, keeping her eyes on Lam as she did. All signs of her drunken stupor had been masked by pure gracefulness and suavity. She even managed to regain the ability to speak without slurring her words. She may have been drunk, but when it came to picking up men, Kaysa was the ultimate professional. "So, what do you boys do, besides buying drinks for beautiful women?" Kaysa shifted closer to Lam as their eyes remained fixed on one another. His blue eyes were staggeringly beautiful, but it was his firm, young body that caught her attention.
Lam smiled at Kaysa as she slid closer, her eyes locked with his. "I work as a navigator for one of the Tarabassic ships in the system. We've got a few days off for routine maintenance. Dev's a pilot, and a damn good one at that." They both laughed, and Lam took the opportunity to slide even closer to Kaysa. He took a pull from the bottle he had sitting next to him on the bar, but kept his attention on Kaysa. He knew the shy one, Shiv, was next to him, but she was Dev's to play with. He'd gotten a good look at her body as they approached, and he conceded that Dev was a damn lucky guy...well, damn lucky if she'd loosen up a little. But, as he felt Kaysa's eyes pulling him, he knew he was damn lucky too. He gave her a smile, one that let his lust come through.
"Damn good? I'm one of the best!" Dev corrected. He smiled at Shiv and gave her a wink. He subtly stared down the top of her shirt and the sight of her soft, supple breasts broadened his grin. "And what do you do, Shiv?" he asked as he reluctantly tore his eyes from her chest and managed to look her in the face. "I bet you're pretty talented and could do anything you wanted if you tried," he said smoothly. She was beautiful and about the right age for him, which was exactly what he was looking for, even though she appeared a bit too timid for his tastes. He couldn't help but let his eyes stray from hers and back to her chest, which was flush from alcohol, or embarrassment, and was heaving, summoning him it would seem. Before the day was over, he would have his face buried in those firm, white breasts, licking them ravenously.
She looked up at him and tried to smile for Kaysa's sake. It didn't work. "I'm a courier for Zenarr Inc.," she said. "And, I'm good at most things." She could feel his eyes down her shirt. It made her skin crawl on one hand. But, on the other it was nice to let him look knowing that that was all he'd ever get. It brought a smile to her face. But, she couldn't let him go on thinking he could just stare down her shirt all day, so she shifted so the fabric of the top didn't give him as much of a look. Of course she would have chosen a shirt today that showed so much skin...but it was for Kaysa, not some drooling trog. She turned so she could watch the bar some more, and keep an eye on Kaysa nearly being mauled by Lam. It was painful to watch. She drained the rest of her drink and signalled for another.
Next to Shiv, Lam continued watching Kaysa before he finally spoke. "So, Kaysa, you look like the kind of woman that knows how to move on a dance floor. Am I right?"
"Not only the dancefloor," Kaysa answered with a suggestive smile, "but I'll show you those moves later." Kaysa tossed back her second complimentary drink and slipped off the barstool. "So, Lam, are you gonna ask me to dance or are you as shy as my friend over there?"
Lam chuckled as he set his drink down. "Well, how 'bout you show me the moves you've got here. And then you can show me your other moves later." He stood and as they walked, placed a hand on her lower back right above her ass as they moved toward the darkened, packed floor where bodies were moving to the heavy beat being churned out of the speakers.
Finding an opening on the floor was hard, but Kaysa and Lam finally wound their way to a small bubble of space. Lam moved his body with the music, easing closer to Kaysa as the strobing lights above flashed through a myriad of colours. He was a good dancer. His body was obviously limber and seemed to almost flow with the music. He kept his eyes on Kaysa's, a heavy smouldering look that carried with it his need and desire. Only centimeters separated them. Waves of heat seemed to roll from him to her and back. "Nice moves," he called.
"I know," Kaysa hollered back with a sly grin. Her arms hung loosely at her sides as she surrendered control of her body to Lam. Her hips were interlocked with his and they swayed in unison as he slowly moved from side to side. She could feel her mound rubbing against his firm cock and she closed her eyes, letting the warmth and desire take hold of her body. "You're very good, Lam," she whispered and pressed her cheek against his.
"I know," he whispered, his lips next to her ear as they moved together. He took one arm and put it around her. He pulled her to him so their bodies were pressed tightly together. Her body was driving him wild. If he wasn't careful, he was gonna blow his load right there on the dancefloor. As they danced, the frenetic rhythm of the music matching their desire beat for beat, he put his mouth to her neck and kissed it. The taste was salty-sweet and Lam realized he needed more. He put his other arm around Kaysa, holding her firmly to him while they moved as one body. He trailed kisses up the side of her neck to her ear. Once there, he gently kissed and nibbled and sucked her earlobe.
Words were not necessary. Anything they needed to say was already conveyed through gesture and touch. This was going to be a night Lam would never forget.
At the bar, Shiv shifted in her seat again so she could keep an eye on Kaysa. The crowd was too thick, and Lam kept moving Kaysa around. Too many bodies blocked her vision. She shook her head, fighting off the depression, and then took another drink.
Shiv reached into the pocket of her jacket and pulled out a small packet. She tapped out one of the cigs within and lit it off the flare patch on the side of the pack. She sat forward to try to find Kaysa again. She blew out a stream of smoke in frustration, but then she finally found her near the edge of the floor. Lam had his hands all over Kaysa's ass, and from the look on Kaysa's face she was loving it. Then again, it could have been the way he was kissing her neck.
She held the pack of cigs toward Dev. "Want one?"
Dev hadn't taken his eyes off Shiv for a moment, even though her head kept weaving as she watched the people on the dancefloor. She seemed more interested in what was going on there than in him, but he would have to remedy that. He pulled a cigarra from the package and placed it between his lips. "Got a light?" he asked, trying to draw Shiv's attention back to him.
"Sure," Shiv said, and handed him the pack with the flare patch pointed at him. "Gods, he's practically fucking her out on the floor." She shook her head and then took another drag. She turned to face him and saw he was just staring at her, cigarra hanging from lip and pack held in hand. Shiv laughed, set her cigarra in the ash slot on the bar, plucked Dev's from his lips and stuck it in hers, lit it, and handed it back to him. "Better?" she asked as she picked her own pack up.
A smile grew slowly on Dev's face and his hand slid across the bar, making contact with Shiv's. "You're sexy, you know that? Why don't you and I take a turn on the dancefloor? I'm sure we could heat things up." Dev caressed Shiv's hand with his and completely forgot about the lit cigarra on his lips as he stared intensely at Shiv. "Or we can just get outta this place all together and you can show me what you look like under those clothes."
"You mean you didn't get a good enough look earlier," she asked, leaning forward for him to glance down her shirt again, but before he could get a good look, she leaned back again. "And, I don't dance." It was a complete lie, but she didn't feel like dancing with Dev. She was actually a pretty good dancer, quite good. She and Lerrah had done quite a bit of dancing when they weren't running shipments. "So, are you considered sexy by the women you pick up?"
Dev laughed and removed his hand from Shiv's. He took a long puff of his cigarra and turned away from her to face the dancefloor. "You're a fiery one, aren't you? If you were a little more like your friend over there, you'd have a lot more guys hanging off your arms," Dev said acridly.
Shiv took another drag and glanced over at Dev. She shook her head and laughed as she sent a stream of smoke in his direction. "Maybe I don't want a lot of guys hanging off my arms," she said. "And, fiery keeps me alive. You can't make it in the male-dominated biz as a woman unless you find a little fire or you spread your legs at every turn."
"But spreading your legs has gotta be more fun, and much easier. Why don't you ask your friend over there? I'm sure she knows a lot about that sort of thing." Dev laughed as he took another drag from his cigarra and rose from his seat. He turned to Shiv and looked down at her, making certain to steal a glimpse of her breasts again before returning his eyes to hers. "This is your last chance. Come and dance with me or you can sit here all night and preach your feminist dogma to the bartender while chicks like your friend get felt up. Believe me," he said, leaning over and whispering in her ear, "getting felt up is much more fun."
Shiv reached up and put her hand on the back of his neck before he could pull away. "When you're feeling her up," she whispered huskily, her lips touching his ear, "hold on to your wallet and everything else you value." She closed her mouth around his earlobe, sucking and dragging her teeth gently across it before letting go. She sat back, her eyes on his. "Go dance, fly boy," she said, as she handed him his ID chip.
Dev pat his pockets quickly, realizing almost immediately that Shiv had swiped his ID chip. He tore the chip from Shiv's hand and glared at her contemptuously. "You're trouble, you know that?" he said in an angry whisper. "Any guy would be wise to stay away from a girl like you." Dev straightened up and shoved the chip back into his pocket as he reached over to the bar and took his drink in hand. "See y'around, blondie," he said, taking a swig from the glass and returning it empty to the bar. He kept his eyes on Shiv as he turned towards the dancefloor and started forward.

As he plunged into the mass of dancing people, Dev made his way to Lam, watching for a moment as Lam's mouth remained tightly sealed around Kaysa's and one of his hands began groping her crotch. He laughed quietly to himself and lightly tapped Lam on the shoulder. "Hey, sorry to interrupt, buddy."
The agitation showed in Lam's body as he partially separated himself from Kaysa. "I'm a little occupied, Dev," he said. "And, you ain't cuttin' in. What is it? Couldn't thaw the Ice Maiden?"
Kaysa giggled at Lam's astute description of Shiv and proceeded to kiss his neck hungrily. Dev smiled at Lam's remark and even more so at Kaysa's obvious sexual yearning. "Shiv is...stubborn, that's for sure, but I gotta get outta here anyway. I've got a run early in the morning and I gotta get some sleep, and since it doesn't look like I'll be getting anywhere with that one," he scoffed as he motioned to Shiv, "I think I'm gonna head out. Unless, of course, you're willing to share?"
Lam slid his hand down between Kaysa's thighs and laughed. "Not with you, bud," he said with mirth. "You had your chance. Not my fault you chose the frosty one instead of the one who heats up just looking at her." He kissed Kaysa hungrily, pulling her to him, wishing he could take her right there. "Go get some sleep, Dev. I'll help you pick out someone a little more willing next time." He cut Dev from his attention and focused completely on Kaysa as their sensual dance of lust continued.
Kaysa watched Dev reluctantly make his way out of the crowd and laughed as she playfully waved goodbye. "Next time I'll try and get my friend more drunk before taking her to pick up guys." Kaysa ran her hands along Lam's contoured back and pulled herself into him. She emitted a gentle moan as his firm cock rubbed against her mound while they danced, and she could feel her nipples beginning to harden. "My place is around the corner," she whispered into his ear as her hands began massaging his ass. "Let's go finish this there."
"A dance of a different kind," he said. He started leading them to the edge of the dancefloor, toward the door. "Then let's get out of here."
Kaysa pulled Lam anxiously along as they finally pushed through the crowd. "I gotta get my jacket. Would you mind telling Shiv over there that we're leaving?" Kaysa asked. She smiled and quickly kissed Lam on the mouth before heading to her table without even awaiting his answer.
Lam wandered over to the bar where Shiv sat smoking another cigarra and watching him. He gave her a smile and decided to be diplomatic instead of using the phrase he'd thought up on the way over. "We're taking off," he said.
Shiv watched him as she took a slow drag on her cigarra. "Have fun," she said and took a swallow of her drink.
"So, are we ready to go?" Kaysa asked as she appeared beside Lam with her jacket draped over her arm. "Come on, Shiv, drink up and let's go." Kaysa was teetering as the vast amounts of alcohol she'd consumed hit her again and sent the room spinning. She couldn't keep herself from giggling and staggered forward as she reached for Shiv's arm. "Don't be a baby, Shiv. Get your cute ass up and let's go!" she said playfully. She grabbed Shiv and began gently tugging on her, stumbling and giggling as she tried to pull Shiv from the stool.
Shiv fought against Kaysa's tugging at first, not wanting to leave with Kaysa and Lam, but after a moment or two she gave in. She stubbed the cigarra out on the surface of the bar, leaving a scar to match the others from so many previous cigarras. Shiv giggled as Kaysa kept tugging. "Alright," she said, "I'm coming." She slammed back the rest of her drink and let herself be pulled up. Once upright, she stumbled forward and fell into Kaysa in fit of giggles. She managed to, with Kaysa's help, steady herself, but as she glanced at her hand, she realized it was resting on Kaysa's breast. The realization brought out another fit of giggles.
Kaysa was aware of where Shiv's hand was, but was far too drunk to care and it almost felt comfortable having it rest there, so there was no point in bothering to remove it. "I'm glad you've finally come to your senses, Ice Bitch." Kaysa laughed hysterically and was pulled away from Shiv's grasp as Lam wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. "Looks like someone's in a hurry," Kaysa commented. She turned around and kissed Lam passionately as he began moving backwards towards the door. "Don't lag behind now, Shiv!" Kaysa called back as they headed for the exit.
"I'm right behind you," Shiv said as she started forward. She shook her head as Lam and Kaysa started moving almost as one four-legged being.
They were all out the door, into the cool night air. Kaysa was leading the way with Lam still wrapped around her body. As they moved, his hands slipped underneath her shirt and started fondling her breasts. Shiv's attention was drawn to them. Oh how she wished she were in Lam's place. What she wouldn't give to kiss Kaysa, to touch her, to make love to her. She knew Lam would be doing that all night long, and she'd be stuck out on the couch to listen to Kaysa's cries of passion, cries she wanted to be the cause of.
Lam's hands moved with an expert touch, bringing repeated moans from Kaysa. Shiv's own arousal had returned, a dull fire burning within. She clenched her hands at her side and tried to pull her eyes away, but she couldn't. Kaysa aroused was one of the most beautiful sights she'd ever seen. Her skin flushed, her eyes closed as Lam guided her, her body pulsing with a sexual heat. Shiv finally managed to pull her attention away as they arrived at the outer door of Kaysa's apartment complex.
She punched in the code to the door and turned to see that Lam had Kaysa pressed against the wall with her shirt pushed up. He suckled at her breasts while his hand massaged between Kaysa's legs. The sight of Kaysa's exposed breasts was nearly too much for Shiv. Her chest was heaving with her own arousal and the throbbing ache in her cunt was unbearable.
"Get inside," she said to Kaysa and Lam, "before I have to start charging the neighbours for the show."
Kaysa glanced at Shiv, then back at Lam as his mouth enveloped her nipple. She emitted a moan that echoed down the street and amplified as it travelled through the thin, night air. "I think she's right, Lam," Kaysa said as she tried to pull herself away from his tender suckling of her breasts. "I've got a bed...a big one. It's more pleasant doing it on a bed than against a hard wall." Kaysa gripped Lam's shirt and pulled him inside as she brushed past Shiv. She could feel Lam's hands creeping up under her shirt, which triggered a shrill cry from Kaysa and an eruption of laughter. She playfully slapped Lam's hands away and ran unsteadily down the corridor, taunting Lam, who sprinted after her with a smile on his face. Kaysa shrieked as Lam scooped her up into his arms from behind and buried his face into her neck. Kaysa laughed hysterically as she fumbled for the keycard in her pant pocket, only to have it flitter to the floor. "Shiv...pick that up will ya?" she asked between fits of laughter.
Shiv let the door close behind her and picked up the keycard as she led the way to Kaysa's apartment. As she reached the stairs that led up to Kaysa's apartment, she glanced back to see that Lam had managed to remove Kaysa's top and was trying to get her pants undone too.
Shiv could really feel the heat rising in her as she watched their display. She shook her head and started up the stairs. She just hoped they'd get into the bedroom quickly so she could get to her couch to frig herself. She got to Kaysa's door and used the card to open it. Another burst of laughter announced Lam and Kaysa's arrival behind her. She turned to see Kaysa, nearly naked in Lam's arms. The shirt was gone, and her pants trailed off of one leg. He had her cradled in one arm, as his other hand busied itself with her cunt. The sight made Shiv's own cunt throb even more.
She laughed and shook her head again.
Suddenly the scent of Kaysa's sex hit her, an overpowering smell that sent Shiv's desire through the roof. She felt her entire body flush as the aching need blossomed.
Shiv quickly pushed the door open for them to go inside. She held it for them to go in past her so she could close the door. "Inside, you two," she said, trying to not let her arousal come through in her voice. "Before the neighbours actually start coming outside."
Kaysa had been set upon the floor again, and the two of them stumbled into the room, their bodies ricocheting off the walls as their frantic groping and passionate kisses threw them off balance. Kaysa had already succeeded in tearing open Lam's shirt, but his pants were proving more difficult to undo. She sputtered curses at the zipper that was holding his pants tightly shut and his cock sealed up inside of it, out of reach of Kaysa's moist, throbbing cunt. His hands were working inside of her, but they weren't having the desired effect. At the bar, she revelled in the fact that she liked them young, liked to have a hand in training them, but as his fingers clumsily groped within her cunt, she began to regret not choosing someone a little more experienced.
"You're doing it all wrong!" Kaysa shouted before she was seized by a fit of laughter. She grabbed Lam's wrist and pulled his hand away from her crotch, laughing in his face. "Why don't you ask Shiv to show you how it's done? She's been with a lady before, you know. She should be very good with her hands...and her mouth." Kaysa fell back against the wall and reeled with laughter as she turned her head to face Shiv. "I bet you know your way around a cunt, don't ya, Shiv?"
Shiv laughed as Kaysa looked in her direction. She set the keycard on the small table next to the door as she watched Kaysa, her naked, flushed body. She figured Kaysa was just toying with her, teasing her. "I know my way," she said. She pulled Dev's credit chip out and set it on the table next to the keycard. "I'm good with my hands." She giggled. "And, my mouth." She felt her hopes soaring and quickly squashed them, reminding herself that Kaysa was just playing with her.
"See, Lam. Why can't you be more like her? I bet she knows what she's doing." Kaysa gave a throaty laugh and slapped Lam on the chest playfully as she staggered towards Shiv. "Are you gonna stand there and watch all night, Shiv, or are you gonna teach this amateur how it's done?"
Lam laughed as he started unbuckling his pants. "Yeah, Shiv," he said, "show me how it's done."

Shiv swallowed as Kaysa approached. Her heart was beating fast and her cunt was throbbing like she couldn't believe. She took a couple steps toward Kaysa, hesitant and uncertain. She still wasn't sure if Kaysa was playing with her or not. But if she wasn't...
She reached up a hand and brushed it across Kaysa's chest, circling her hard nipples. She kept her eyes on Kaysa's. She couldn't hold back any longer and leaned in and kissed Kaysa. Her passion poured through the contact. As their lips were sealed together, tongues twisting together, she slid a hand down between Kaysa's thighs, the familiar touch of a woman coming back.
It had been two years since Shiv had had any sexual contact with another person, two very long years. And, since she'd first met Kaysa she'd been lusting for her. But, it was all familiar, where to touch, how to touch. It was all coming back, and she could tell she was doing good.
Behind Kaysa, Lam approached having finally shed the rest of his clothes. He pressed himself to Kaysa, kissing her neck and back. His hands reached around to fondle Kaysa's breasts. He could feel Shiv's breasts there too, the fabric of her top against the back of his hands. He made special care to rub his hands across the girl's breasts as well. Both women were really heated up. It was going to be a night to remember.
Shiv's touch caused an instant reaction in Kaysa. Her cunt was burning up and became increasingly sensitive the longer Shiv's slender, smooth fingers oscillated within her. Her hips jerked forward and her body slammed against Shiv's as her most sensitive spot was worked. Lam's hands were still cupped over her swelling breasts, providing one lingering barrier between her and Shiv. As his hands slowly slid away from her chest and began caressing her bare stomach, Kaysa flattened her breasts against Shiv's. She could feel the girl's hard nipples poking into her soft flesh, and her excitement only grew.
Lam's cock had finally been released from his pants and was now rubbing against her back. His lips traced over her shoulders and neck, while her own lips remained fastened to Shiv's. A moan travelled from deep in her throat and made its way into Shiv's mouth as all the feelings began culminating. Her mind was in a frenzy, not able to keep up with all the sensations arising from the stimulation of different parts of her body simultaneously. It felt like a million hands were moving over her skin, every one of them eliciting a spike of intense pleasure in her. Her own hands slid under Shiv's thin top and slid across her warm, silky flesh as Shiv's tongue tickled the back of her throat. A muffled cry escaped and got lost in Shiv's mouth, one evoked by a sudden intense throbbing in her cunt brought on by Shiv's fingers. They moved expertly, but tenderly within Kaysa, whose hands proceeded to tug at Shiv's shirt.
With her free hand, Shiv reached up to the strap holding her top in place at her neck and tugged it free. The second strap, stretching across the middle of her back went next and her top vanished to the floor as Kaysa pulled it away. They pressed their bodies together again, breasts and stomachs pressed together, exchanging heat.
Shiv could feel Lam's hands moving against her and Kaysa's stomachs. As her fingers worked at Kaysa's clit, she felt another hand brush against hers. She opened her eyes briefly to see Lam looking at her, smiling. She closed her eyes and kept kissing, revelling in Kaysa's body against hers.
Lam was in a place he never dreamed he'd be, and he was loving it. Two women. They weren't paying much attention to him right now, but he knew he'd get them soon. Their bodies were amazing, and he was going to have them both. He caressed Shiv's breasts, wishing he could suck and kiss them. With his free hand, he took his cock in hand, and guided it to Kaysa's entrance. He brushed his hand against Shiv's and he smiled at her. Then, with a single thrust, he entered Kaysa. He felt her body shudder slightly, and then he started moving inside her, in and out. He could feel himself brushing against Shiv with each thrust. He didn't know how long he could last. His arousal was through the roof, but he wanted to hold out a little. He wanted to give Kaysa a good fucking. She insulted his skills with his hands, he'd show her how good he was with his dick. And, then he'd have to give Shiv a spin. He put his mouth to Kaysa's neck and started kissing again. He slipped his hands around her body to fondle Shiv and Kaysa's breasts, pressed against each other.
Kaysa's mouth slackened and fell away from Shiv's. Her head reclined back against Lam's chest as a sustained moan echoed through the room. With every thrust of Lam's cock, Kaysa's hips jerked forward against Shiv's hand, and Kaysa only cried out louder as their combined stimulation sent a blinding wave of pleasure through her. She clung tightly to Shiv's waist and began sliding her hands into her pants. Kaysa was feeling so indescribably wonderful that an altruistic part of her wanted to share that pleasure with Shiv.
Kaysa's prolonged moans reverted to loud, staccato cries, which grew evermore shrill as the erotic bliss surmounted and her climax neared. Her legs were buckling beneath her, but she was wedged between Shiv and Lam tightly, the closeness of their bodies the only thing keeping her from sinking to the ground. Her hand finally made its way to Shiv's hot, wet cunt and she felt it pulsating against her hand. She slipped her fingers slowly inside and began working them against her clit with as much enthusiasm as Shiv was working hers.
Lam's cock was lost within her now, and his every thrust buried it deeper inside of her mound. Her entire body was burning up as the sweat poured down her face and beaded up on her chest. She bit her lip as she tried to slow down the hastening throbbing in her cunt. She'd never been so enraptured with ecstasy as she was at that moment and there was no way she wanted it to end.
Shiv cried out as Kaysa's hands started working magic. In the last two years, only her hands had touched where Kaysa's hands were, and recently they had touched while fantasies of Kaysa flashed through her mind. And now Kaysa was doing to her what she'd been dreaming about.
She lowered her mouth to Kaysa's breasts, sucking and nibbling at her nipples. Shiv knew that Kaysa had never been with a woman before, but her hands sure knew what to do. She could feel the climax building, and it was going to be big. It was the first time she'd been touched by someone else in a long time, and it was making everything that much more intense.
"Oh gods," she rasped. She wasn't there yet, but it was close. Oh so close.
Shiv kept her fingers going at Kaysa's clit as Lam continued fucking her deep. He was making a lot of moans and grunts as he plunged deep inside, only to pull out and plunge again.
Lam wasn't going to last much longer, and he could feel Kaysa starting to tighten as her climax drew even closer. He plunged deep and felt himself go. His seed flooded Kaysa's cunt as she threw her head back and screamed. Her climax hit like a summer storm, bigger than anything she'd ever felt before. It seemed to last forever as Shiv's fingers still stimulated her clit, shocks keeping the climax going, prolonging it.
Shiv pulled away from Kaysa's breasts to look up at her, gauge whether she wanted her to keep going, drive her through more and more orgasms.
Kaysa's trembling fingers continued to press into Shiv's mound, even though her entire body was wracked with spasms and she seemed to melt with the smouldering heat boiling within her. She groaned as her cunt began to ache from Shiv's touch.
Kaysa quickly pulled Shiv's hand away as the pain radiated from her mound, and she collapsed against Shiv, spreading kisses onto her neck. Her body instantly relaxed and she let out a long, relieved sigh as the discomfort was replaced by a warm, soothing sense of satisfaction. She felt Lam's cock slide slowly out of her cunt, causing her to shudder almost violently as he hit her sensitive clit on his way out.
Her fingers continued to caress the inside of Shiv's mound as she moved her lips to her ear and whispered into it. "I think it's your turn, my shining star. Don't be afraid, Lam's not that big." Kaysa laughed as she pulled away from Shiv and withdrew her fingers from her cunt. She was slowly turned around by Lam and pulled into a passionate kiss. Kaysa stroked his limp cock and attempted to reawaken it in preparation for Shiv. "Now you treat her good, Lam, or you don't get a second go at me."
"I'll treat her real good," he said. His hands caressed her body as she worked at his. Finally, Kaysa's magic had worked itself through Lam's now erect prick and he turned to Shiv with a gentle smile on his face.
"You've never done this with a man, have you?"
Shiv shook her head. She still wore her boots and pants. Her eyes still watched Kaysa, a burning hunger in them. Slowly she turned her attention to Lam as he stepped forward. Her eyes were drawn down his body until they came to his erection. A mixture of fear and fascination flashed across her face. She knew he was about to fuck her. She had told herself so many times in her life that she would never go with a man, never sleep with the enemy. But here he was. She'd just watched him with Kaysa. Her friend and mentor watched her with-- Was that pride? She had to do this. Kaysa wanted her to. Kaysa was watching, and she wanted Kaysa's approval. She wanted Kaysa's love. And, doing this with Lam might get her closer to Kaysa.
And, a part of her wanted this for herself. Her curiousity had been piqued, and it approached her in the form of Lam's erect cock, his mouth eager to kiss her, to suckle her breasts. She was scared out of her mind, but Kaysa's presence was calming. She could do this.
She stepped forward toward Lam. As his hands moved quickly to her waist, and then from her waist to her stomach and upward to her breasts, she ran hesitant fingers along the shaft of his prick. She looked up at him only to have her mouth covered by his in a passionate kiss. It was a rough kiss, very masculine. But, there was a hunger in it, a hunger that seemed to feed Shiv's lust. She kissed him back as she pressed herself to him, pulling him to her.
She didn't know what she was doing. A voice in her head cried out for her to stop, but the throbbing in her cunt, the aching in her nipples, it was all too much. She needed to be satisfied, to orgasm again and again.
Her hands left his prick and moved to fumble with the fastenings of her pants. The kiss never stopped, never even wavered as they explored each other's mouths as their lust ever increased. Finally, the catch on her pants came free and Shiv frantically tried pushing them down. She whimpered with need as she struggled against her clothing. Her pants were hung up on her boots, and she had no idea how to get out of them without separating from Lam. She moaned as his hands caressed her nipples, kneaded her breasts.
"Oh, come on now, Lam!" Kaysa hollered from behind. "The girl's never done it with a man before and she's obviously nervous. You aren't just gonna fuck her standing up, are you?" Kaysa laughed and playfully tsked at Lam as she moved towards them. "Poor thing, you're trembling," she said softly to Shiv. Kaysa stood at Shiv's side and gently caressed her cheek trying to give her a comforting smile. "Don't worry, my star. I won't leave your side." Kaysa kissed Shiv lightly on the lips and pulled her free from Lam's embrace. She wrapped her own arms tenderly around Shiv and hugged her trembling body against hers. "Let's move this to the bedroom," Kaysa whispered as she kissed Shiv on the cheek and began leading her away from the living area. "Come along, Lam."

Shiv leaned against Kaysa as they started to move. The warmth of her body was comforting, the gentle caresses and kisses filled her heart to bursting. She stumbled slightly as they started to move, and stooped to pull her pants up for walking. As she was able to walk again, she moved her lips to Kaysa's neck and cheeks. The salty taste of Kaysa's sweat still lingered on her skin.
Once in the bedroom, Kaysa led Shiv to the bed where she helped her remove her boots as Lam moved around behind and began kissing and caressing. Finally both boots and pants fell to the floor and Lam's attentions increased. One hand played with her nipples and breasts while the other dropped down between her thighs. It didn't take much before he had Shiv writhing back against him.
"Please," she finally whispered as she reached back to touch his cock pressing against her back. She managed to wrap a hand around his shaft, working it slowly. A moan escaped her lips as he brought his lips to her neck again while his hands continued to work in her cunt.
She tried to turn. At first, Lam seemed confused, but then he realized she was turning back to him not trying to get away. Once out of his embrace, she crawled to the middle of the bed and turned to watch him and Kaysa. Her eyes held a hunger as she looked at both of them. Finally, Lam moved up to her and started kissing again as they knelt together in the center of Kaysa's bed.
His prick pressed against her belly, it's warmth radiating, it's hardness comforting. She knew she needed him inside her. She couldn't believe herself, but she did.
"Yes," she whispered. "Please."
Lam took that as his cue and laid Shiv back on the bed. He positioned himself over her with his cock pressing against her entrance.
Shiv bit her lip, fighting back tears. She couldn't believe what she was doing. She wanted to stop. She wanted to keep going. She didn't know what to do. She looked up into Lam's eyes, and saw a lustful need in them. Then without warning, she cried out as he thrust himself inside her. The tears in her eyes fell as he started taking long strokes inside of her.
She tasted blood in her mouth from her lip as he continued his thrusts.
"Oh gods yes," she cried out.
She wrapped her legs around his waist as he sped up his pace. She heard her voice, crying out, moaning. Her head was thrown back as she tried to pull him deeper inside her. She never realized... The feelings they were...
"Oh gods, don't stop!! Keep going!! Yes, yes!!"
Lam's face contorted as he tried to keep himself from cumming too soon. She was tight. She was good. And, she was damn enthusiastic.
Shiv heard herself screaming. She didn't know what, but she was screaming. She had never known such ecstasy. She hated herself for it. She hated that it was with a man. But, oh, of all the gods, what he was doing to her...
Her vision went white as her orgasm hit full force. And, only a few seconds later, she felt Lam let go inside her. Her voice was going hoarse with her cries and screams, but the feelings inside her... She had had some wonderful sex before, but never anything like this. There was something bigger about this. And, not because of Lam. It was everything. And, it was Kaysa.
Finally, Lam slowed and finally stopped, his body still on top of Shiv. She was panting. She looked to her side where Kaysa was sitting. She grinned like a fool and couldn't stop giggling. "I just did a guy."
Kaysa smiled at Shiv as she ground out the cigarra she had sparked up. "Bravo! A very entertaining show," Kaysa commented. She laughed aloud and rose from the seat she'd taken not far from the bed. She'd made sure to position herself at a perfect angle to view the entire event, and she was not disappointed. "You two were wonderful!" Kaysa began applauding as she moved to the side of the bed and looked down at Shiv's glistening body. Her chest was noticeably heaving and a smile was plastered onto her face, one almost as big as the one Lam was wearing. Kaysa stopped clapping and shooed Lam with her hands. "Get off of her now. Don't wanna crush the poor thing, not after you've already impaled the precious creature with that oversized dick of yours." Kaysa scowled playfully at Lam as she lay down on the bed next to Shiv and began smoothing her hand over her damp hair. "Are you alright, Shiv?"
Shiv reached out and touched Kaysa, lightly running her hands over her body. "I feel like a million credits," she said with a giggle. "I was so scared at first. Even during sort of, but oh the way it felt." She closed her eyes briefly, savouring the tingling still running through her body. She opened them, still grinning. She leaned up and kissed Kaysa on the lips. "Did I do okay? I mean, I didn't do much, but was I okay?" Before Kaysa could respond, Shiv kissed her again. Then she started trailing kisses down her chin and throat.
"You were impressive, Shiv, especially for a first-timer." Kaysa sighed as Shiv's delicate lips brushed across her still sensitive flesh. Kaysa smiled sweetly at Shiv and pulled her into an embrace, kissing her gently on the forehead. "You can go now, Lam," she said quietly across the bed. "You've served your purpose. Maybe we'll see y'around sometime."
Lam's jaw dropped as he looked at the two women. Kaysa glancing at him, and Shiv ignoring him as she kissed her way down Kaysa's body held in an embrace. He shook his head and laughed. "You mean I was just here to pop her cherry?"
Shiv stopped her kisses and glanced back. "My cherry was popped a long time ago," she said. "By a dildo this big." She showed with her hands, an impressive length indeed. "You're just the first guy I've ever been with."
Lam shook his head. "You two planned this? To get your little friend done by a local stud?"
"It wasn't my plan," Shiv said with a shake of her head. "I was content to never be touched by a guy. But watching you and Kaysa changed my mind." She returned her lips to Kaysa's chest and belly, kissing her way down toward Kaysa's mound.
"So," Lam said, turning his attention to Kaysa, "I'm just supposed to go now? That was it? You don't want to keep going? I've still got some juice left, Kaysa."
Kaysa's breath caught in her throat as Shiv's mouth brushed across the opening of her cunt, then moved to her inner thighs, kissing them tenderly. "As you can see, Lam, you've become superfluous. I brought you here for a good fuck, and that's what you've given me...us. You can jerk off in the bathroom if you like; just remember to clean up afterwards." Kaysa watched Lam as the impact of her statement reflected quickly on his changing facial expression. He was pissed and she was loving it. A good fuck was exactly what he was looking for and Kaysa gave it to him willingly, as did Shiv, although a little reluctantly. That's all men ever wanted and even though his begging was rather flattering, Kaysa had grown weary of his presence. "You can watch if you like, but I'd prefer it if you left now," Kaysa said rather curtly as her fingers entangled themselves in Shiv's soft hair.
Shiv put Lam out of her mind as she concentrated on sending Kaysa to the most powerful orgasm she'd ever had in her life. Her lips and tongue moved expertly across Kaysa's cunt. With Kaysa's hands in her hair, pulling her even further in, Shiv had no choice but to continue, not that anything would have stopped her anyway. She'd been dying to be where she was now, and there she was. Just brushing her tongue across Kaysa's clit caused a throbbing in her own cunt.
Lam watched as Shiv licked and sucked at Kaysa's pussy. The girl was good. And, judging from Kaysa's reaction very good. Lam was half tempted to stay and watch, to wait for his dick to get hard again and then take the girl from behind. But, Kaysa's insulting comments pissed him off. He shook his head and climbed off the bed. "Maybe I'll see you around," he said as he stalked from the room to get his clothes.
Shiv didn't notice him going, she was too intent on the pleasure she was giving Kaysa. She was soaring, happier, giddier, than she'd ever been. Her dreams were coming true, and each of Kaysa's moans helped make her realize that just a little more. She only hoped that she was as good as Lerrah always said she was.
Kaysa winked at Lam as he headed out of the room, then closed her eyes and lay her head back against the headboard. Shiv's tongue was slipping between the lips of her cunt, a sensation she'd felt before, but not like this. She didn't care that it was Shiv bringing out such a reaction in her; it could have been just about anyone and she would have enjoyed it just as much. The act was purely one whose purpose was to fulfill her hedonistic desires, and Shiv was merely the tool that would bring that satisfaction about. She liked the girl, but she knew romps with her wouldn't be a frequent occurrence, and most likely only when she was as drunk as she was that night.
Kaysa's thoughts centred on her cunt now and the intense pulsating Shiv was causing within it. The waves of pleasure coursed through her in ever-increasing intensity, feelings that were expressed clearly by the voluminous cries she was emitting. "Oh...Shiv..." Kaysa muttered as a particularly powerful sensation jolted her and caused her back to arch off the bed. She pushed on Shiv's head and spread her legs wider, allowing Shiv to slip between them. "Are we gonna remember this in the morning?"
Shiv slid her hand down between her own thighs as she worked at Kaysa's pussy. She could feel Kaysa getting close. She paused long enough to take a breath, and quickly say: "I'm going to remember this night forever." She returned her tongue to Kaysa's clit and could feel the tremors starting. Kaysa was going to cum any moment. Shiv was going to make sure it was big and beautiful, something Kaysa would remember for always.
The muscles of Kaysa's cunt began to tighten and her breasts ached as the pressure in them reached an extreme. Her hips were jerking forward violently while the throbbing in her mound intensified. She cried out desperately and writhed frantically on the bed. The climax was approaching and she yearned to feel the pinnacle of ecstasy it would bring with it, but she knew it would end just as soon as it would begin. She felt wonderful and never wanted it to end. "Slower..." Kaysa pleaded in a strained voice, but to no avail. She was already too far past the brink to turn back; her sexual desire was inevitably going to reach its fulfillment at any moment and every muscle in her body tensed in preparation for it.
Her fingers untangled themselves from Shiv's dishevelled hair and clawed at the sheets of the bed as her cunt began to ache, an ache mingled with intense pleasure. Kaysa's cries grew louder and more primal, and with a final violent thrust of her hips, Kaysa's body was flooded with a blinding rush of ecstasy. Her screams filled the entire room and rebounded off every wall as her entire body lifted off the bed, save for her hips, which were still being weighed down by Shiv's hands. Her head remained between Kaysa's thighs as ripples of pleasure continued to wash over her. She was aware of Shiv's mouth continuing to feast on her cunt, but her body was overly sensitive now, and even the slightest touch was causing her to writhe in pain. "Stop, Shiv. Oh gods, stop," she whispered in a hoarse breathless voice.
Shiv stopped immediately. As she pulled away, she paused long enough to place several gentle kisses on Kaysa's inner thighs. She crawled up on the bed to lay next to Kaysa, watching her as she came down from the bliss she'd just experienced. Shiv made certain to not touch Kaysa yet, to not overload her senses.
Kaysa's breathing was still very fast and heavy. As Shiv looked at her, she couldn't imagine how beautiful Kaysa looked. And, she couldn't believe the dream that had just come true. Since she'd met Kaysa, she'd been wanting to make love to her, and she had. Now she just had to find a way to make Kaysa love her.

Shiv reached up a hesitant hand to smooth Kaysa's hair. "Are you alright, Kaysa?" She grinned.
Kaysa nodded her head slowly and stared at the ceiling with a gentle smile on her face. "I knew you had potential from the moment I saw you," Kaysa said breathlessly as she brought an arm around Shiv and pulled her close. "I just had no idea you were this talented."
Shiv giggled as she snuggled close to Kaysa. "I'm a girl of many talents," she said. "And, I think I do damn good at giving other girls pleasure. You're only my second, but I'd say from your screams I did okay." She grinned. "And, anytime you want more of that, you know where to find me." She giggled again as she wrapped an arm around Kaysa.
"Well, I'll let you know," Kaysa said as she moved her eyes to Shiv. "Are you tired? You don't have to sleep on the couch tonight. I think you've earned the right to sleep in bed with me." Kaysa smiled down at Shiv and laughed softly. "You're the first woman I've been with and I don't know if it's because I'm still bloody drunk or what, but I rather enjoyed myself."
"Good," Shiv said with a giggle. "You were supposed to enjoy yourself. I mean, that's what sex is all about, right? Pleasure and enjoyment. If you don't enjoy it, you shouldn't do it; but if you do, you should do it a lot." Shiv was quiet for a few long moments, content to just lay snuggled close to Kaysa. "I want to go out picking up guys with you again." She giggled. "Just think what kind of damage we can do if I'm willing from the start."
"So, changed your mind about men, have you? I figured it was just a phase. You're still young and all you needed was a little sexual exploration to help you make up your mind." She enjoyed having Shiv laying by her side clinging to her tightly as if the girl were afraid to let go, afraid Kaysa would simply vanish as if she were only a figment of Shiv's ultimate fantasy. Kaysa enjoyed the feeling of dominance that came with knowing she held such power over the girl. Control and manipulation were two things Kaysa sought to gain in all aspects of life; sex was just one area where she excelled at seizing such dominance.
After the hell she'd been through over the past week, it was wonderful to be able to detach herself from reality and merely drown in immense euphoria and ecstasy. In the bedroom, she knew her way around and could easily take control of any situation, but out there in Commerce City, things were more complex and unpredictable. It was a struggle to stay ahead and maintain what little authority she had in a world dominated by men, but in the bedroom, she could rule over them.
Shiv submitted more quickly than Kaysa had initially anticipated. It wasn't her plan to invite her home that night, but a part of her - the part that wasn't piss drunk - wanted to test just how strong Shiv was. She was still as strong-willed as ever, but Kaysa knew she had her wrapped around her finger. A smile curled her lips as she caressed her new pet's breast. Her life was slipping out of control, but dominating Shiv could give her the illusion of power and help her regain some of the order she'd maintained before everything fell into shambles.
"It was a lucky twist of fate that you walked into my office that day, Shiv," Kaysa said softly as she turned onto her side and slowly slid atop Shiv. Kaysa straddled her waist with her legs and began kneading Shiv's breasts sensuously. "You've proven yourself even more worthy of my friendship and that is precisely what you shall have if you never do anything to anger me, Shiv. Would you like that?"
Shiv moaned against Kaysa's touch. She nodded. "Yes," she moaned. "I want that. I want it very much." Kaysa's touch was electric. The fire that had died down once again bloomed to life, spreading from Shiv's breasts outward through the rest of her body. "I never want to anger you, Kaysa; I want to be your friend. I want that." She moaned again and brought her hands up to touch and caress Kaysa.
"Uh uh uh, Shiv," Kaysa chided gently as she clasped her hands around Shiv's wrists and pushed her arms back against the mattress. "It's my turn, Shiv. If you're going to be my friend, you'll have to learn some restraint, and you'll have to learn to wait your turn." Kaysa laughed as she released Shiv's wrists and pried open Shiv's legs and slid down between them. She let her mouth kiss every visible area of Shiv's stomach while her hands smoothed over her thighs. "I don't like defiance either, Shiv. I won't tolerate it. But you've been a good girl so far, and I would like you to remain obedient. I'm a much more pleasant person to be around if I'm not defied." Kaysa's eyes gazed up at Shiv and she smiled seductively as she ran her tongue along Shiv's thigh, close enough to her cunt that she could feel Shiv trembling in anticipation. "Are we clear on everything, Shiv, my shining star? You do as I tell you, and our relationship will be a harmonious one."
"Everything," Shiv rasped. "I'll do whatever you tell me to, whatever you want me to. Oh!" She reached up and gripped the rungs of the headboard and closed her eyes tightly. "I'll be obedient. I'll do everything you tell me to." Shiv's body writhed at the feather-light touch of Kaysa's tongue, so close she could almost feel it plunging inside her, but not there. She could feel Kaysa's warm breath against her lips and clit. Her arousal was total. Her body flushed and trembled, yearning for Kaysa's touch. "I'm all yours."
"That's all I needed to hear," Kaysa whispered as she ran her fingers lightly along Shiv's inner thighs and finally buried her head between her legs. Her hands gripped Shiv's thighs, holding them down firmly as her tongue finally slid into her hot, moist cunt. She had Shiv now. There was no way after this was over that Shiv would turn against Kaysa and risk losing her. She would be intoxicated by Kaysa, addicted to her which would better facilitate Kaysa's manipulation. Vrax was becoming a liability; he had proven his loyalty to Kaysa, but he was becoming possessive, which made him very dangerous.
Kaysa needed someone she could better control and tame. Shiv was young and malleable, which meant Kaysa could shape her how she pleased, mould her to become Kaysa's devoted servant. The idea of that excited Kaysa and she began pleasuring Shiv more enthusiastically and vigourously. She would surrender herself completely to Kaysa and she would gladly take hold of her. It was how it had to be.
Shiv's body writhed uncontrollably against Kaysa. She could feel her orgasm coming on, bigger than anything she'd ever felt before. Her cries were growing in intensity, interspersed with moans. She knew she was crying out Kaysa's name. She didn't know what else she was saying, crying out. But, she knew it all had to do with Kaysa.
She was Kaysa's now. She wanted that. She had given herself over to the woman she loved more than anything, now more than ever. She would do anything for Kaysa, be anything for Kaysa. She did not know what this arrangement had in store for her. She hoped that a lot of it would involve her pleasuring Kaysa, but at this point she didn't care. She was Kaysa's to do with as she pleased. And, Shiv would do that willingly. Whatever Kaysa wanted, she would obey.
Finally her orgasm hit. Her body trembled violently, held only in place by her firm grip on the sheets and Kaysa holding her down. Her scream carried, a scream of the purest pleasure, shattering the night with its intensity.
After several very long minutes, it all subsided. Shiv's breath was still coming in shuddering gasps, but she was calming. "Oh gods," she finally managed. "That was... You were... Most unbelievable... Oh, gods, thank you. After that, I think I can die now." She giggled and looked down at Kaysa. Beautiful Kaysa, and the one who possessed her, body, heart, and spirit. "Thank you."
"My pleasure...and apparently yours too." Kaysa chuckled and ran the back of her hand across her lips, removing the physical signs of Shiv's arousal from her mouth. Shiv's body was visibly trembling and her breasts were still swollen and plump with a lovely flush spread over them. Kaysa moved to lie on top of Shiv and cradled her face in her hands. "My precious star," she said quietly as her lips gently pressed against Shiv's. "You and I are gonna work so well together. I can just tell." Kaysa's kiss became more forceful and she enveloped Shiv's mouth entirely with her own. She could feel Shiv submitting, could feel her entire body melting at her touch. Shiv would serve Kaysa's purposes perfectly.
As the kiss went on, Shiv gave herself over completely to Kaysa. Gentle whimpering moans echoed from her throat as she kept the sheets gripped in her fists. She was Kaysa's. She knew that she would willingly give Kaysa whatever she wanted, do whatever Kaysa wanted. And, each second that passed, whatever resistance she could have ever raised against her mentor, lover, and mistress drained away. Shiv knew there was a danger in doing what she was doing, but she didn't care. She loved Kaysa, loved her with every fibre of her being; and there was nothing she would refuse her. She knew she had enslaved herself to Kaysa, and would be blissfully happy there. As long as she could please Kaysa, she would be so.
Kaysa broke the kiss and laughed at Shiv as she felt the girl's nipples becoming hard again and poking into her chest. "You're very excitable, aren't you? Haven't you had enough for one night?" Kaysa gave Shiv one final, lingering kiss before slipping off of the girl and lying next to her on the bed. "It's not that late yet, but we should rest. Tomorrow's a big day, after all."
Shiv closed her eyes and snuggled up against Kaysa. The kiss had brought back her arousal, but she was also quite exhausted, not to mention a little sore. She couldn't remember a time in her life when she'd felt more content, not even with Lerrah. It was a surprising and startling thought, but Shiv knew it for the truth. She smiled as she realized her body was still tingling. And, she would spend the entire night sleeping with Kaysa. The day had started quite badly, but was definitely turning out for the better. And, then tomorrow...what would tomorrow bring? "Tomorrow's a big day?" she asked. "What's happening tomorrow?"
Kaysa laughed with mirth and her eyes twinkled as she pulled Shiv closer and whispered into her ear. "Tomorrow, we're going shopping, courtesy of our good friend, Dev. Whaddya say, my shining star?"

Shiv grinned and opened her eyes, suddenly remembering the credit chip she'd lifted off Dev when she took his ID chip. "Mmm," she said. "I haven't been shopping in a long time. He actually has a few thousand credits on there." She had no idea what she would buy. Clothing was the easiest choice. And, she could always use more knives, but she had quite a few. Maybe new clothes so she and Kaysa could go out to pick up guys. And, lift their credit chips too. She giggled at the thought. She and Kaysa could have quite the enterprising business. "We could turn quite the profit doing that, you know?" she said, giving her thoughts voice. "I mean, if we go out and pick up guys, and I grab their chips. Can you imagine how much we could make in a week?" She giggled. "I mean, if we were really adventurous, we could tag a few marks in a night."
"I like how your mind works, Shiv. I'm really glad I hired you now," Kaysa said. "But we have to be careful. I can't afford to get caught now. I'm to marry Mr. Rennor Karradas, and he would highly disapprove of me getting thrown into prison." Kaysa burst into laughter and pulled Shiv into an embrace. "Who the fuck cares about Rennor Karradas? This may be my only chance for fun before I condemn myself to a life of misery with that man."
Shiv giggled as she melted into Kaysa's embrace. "Well, we just have to make sure we don't get caught," she said. "And, if we do, we need to have a good place to hide the bodies." She grinned. "And, which would he disapprove of more, you being thrown in prison or you having wild, rambunctious sex with one of your employees and a complete stranger." She giggled again. "Well, he probably wouldn't like either, so we just can't be caught." She kissed Kaysa and then smiled as she gazed into her beautiful brown eyes. "What he doesn't know, won't hurt him." Shiv was quiet for a moment as she clung to Kaysa. "The way you talk about him, it sounds like marrying him is going to be like a prison itself." She sighed and then forced a smile. "I'll help you any way I can. Anything you need when you're in lock-up, I'll help you with." She grinned.
"Of course you will, Shiv. It's your duty as my friend to help me whenever I'm in distress." Kaysa brought one of her hands to Shiv's cheek and began caressing it gently. Shiv was right in everything that she'd said, that marrying Rennor was going to be the biggest mistake she'd ever made, but Kaysa had no other viable options at that moment. They could go on sprees for an entire month, stealing credit chips off hundreds of men, but their money combined would be nowhere near enough, not unless they robbed from a man like Rennor, which was what Kaysa inevitably planned to do.
Something Shiv said, even though it may have been in jest, brought with it a realization that Kaysa had to be more cautious. If Rennor found out about her promiscuity and outside relations, he would break the engagement. Yet, the contract they had both signed warded either them off of leaving one another. It appeared as if she was going to be stuck with Rennor for quite a long time. Still, however, if he did find out about her overt sexual relations with almost every man in Commerce City, he had it within his power to make her life forever difficult. He was a well-known man with money and sway in Commerce City; no contract would stand in the way of him destroying Kaysa both financially and in reputation.
Kaysa's anxieties peaked and she felt her fingers sliding down Shiv's soft, damp cheek and gently brushing along the side of her neck. Before she knew what had possessed her, Kaysa closed her hand around Shiv's throat and jerked her head forward. She stared coldly into Shiv's deep, brown eyes, which were now wide with surprise and a tinge of fear, and held her firmly while her legs thrashed and her fingers clawed at Kaysa's hand. She could hear hoarse gasps coming from Shiv and her shocked expression changed quickly to one of a piteous imploration as Kaysa's grip tightened.
"Don't worry, my pet," Kaysa whispered with a sadistic grin curling her lips. "I don't plan on killing you. I'm not a murderer, my star, but there is a little matter I wish to discuss with you." She paused a moment and peered deeply into Shiv's eyes, her gaze warming slightly as she tenderly stroked Shiv's hair with her free hand. "I know you didn't mean it when you mentioned Rennor's reaction to our relations, my dear, but if word of what happened here tonight, or what will most likely continue to happen here, ever finds its way to Rennor's ears, you will not live to regret it."
Shiv groaned in protest, but Kaysa pressed a finger over her lips and shushed her gently. "I know you wouldn't dare say anything to him, but I have to hear it from you, Shiv. I have to be certain that if news of this does reach Rennor, it won't be by your mouth. I'm a woman with everything to lose, and in desperation, Shiv, I don't know what I'll be capable of. I don't want to have to silence you permanently, so I want what happened here to be between you and I. That fool out there and the rest of the horny bastards I bring home wouldn't go to Rennor with this kind of information; it wouldn't benefit them in any way if they did. That means, my star, that the only way he could ever possibly find out," she whispered as her finger trailed down to Shiv's chest, winding its way across to her breast and tracing around her nipple, "is if you spill it to him. Don't do that to me, Shiv. Please?" Kaysa's expression became gentle and earnest as she finally loosened her fingers from Shiv's neck and resumed caressing her cheek, as before.
Shiv shook her head frantically. "I'd never do that, Kaysa," she stammered, as tears flowed down her cheeks. "I'd never do anything to hurt you. Please believe me. I'd never tell anyone, no one. Please, Kaysa. I liked what happened here. I don't want it to stop. I wouldn't tell. I couldn't. Not to you. I couldn't do that to you. Please believe that I wouldn't." Shiv reached out to take the hand that had been constricting around her throat and brought it to her lips. She kissed it desperately, needfully. She looked up again, her eyes focusing on Kaysa's. "I would never hurt you, Kaysa. I couldn't."
"I know, my pet, I know," Kaysa said assuringly as she pulled Shiv into a firm embrace and began rubbing her back as sobs wracked her body. "I believe you, Shiv. I just needed to hear it from you," she whispered into her ear softly. "No need for tears, my star. I'm not angry or upset with you. I was just trying to assess your loyalty, and you've already proven it far better than I could have imagined."
Kaysa moved her hand slowly down Shiv's back and brought it around onto her thigh. She kissed Shiv's cheek and licked up her salty tears as her hand slid between Shiv's thighs and into her warm, trembling cunt. "No more tears..." she repeated in an inaudible whisper as she crushed Shiv's naked body against her own and began working her fingers deeper inside of Shiv.
A whimper quickly turned into a moan. Shiv's mind reeled with all the feelings that had been coursing through her. She pushed her hips forward, trying to take more of Kaysa's fingers and hand inside her. Above everything though, she felt her bond to Kaysa deepening. She never thought she could so completely give herself over to another, but it had happened with Kaysa. And, there was no shock or surprise. It felt natural. It felt right. The devotion and obedience she felt toward Kaysa was just there. She knew it was borne out of her love for Kaysa and a desire to be loved. If she was what Kaysa wanted her to be, she might love her in return. She realized, though, it wasn't a matter of choice though, she just was. She had no willing choice in the matter. Another moan escaped her lips as Kaysa found a sensitive spot. "I'm yours, Kaysa," Shiv whispered. "Completely and, oh gods, completely yours. I'll do anything. Oh gods, Kaysa, I lo--" Her words were cut off by another moan followed by a cry of ecstasy. "I am yours, loyal and, oh!, so very loyal!"
Shiv's cries coupled with the incessant pulsating of her cunt told Kaysa her star was at the brink. She had her now, fully and completely. The girl was obviously enthralled by her, enamoured with her and Kaysa would use that to her advantage. She held her hand firmly against the small of Shiv's back to brace her as she gave her a few final, hard thrusts with her fingers to bring her over the edge. Each thrust was punctuated by a violent jerk of Shiv's body and shrill, piercing cries that made Kaysa wince as her ears processed the sounds. Her fingers were drowning in a sea of fluid as the lips of Shiv's cunt closed firmly around Kaysa's hand and the girl's body convulsed wildly. A thick, guttural moan filled the room as Shiv's entire body stiffened and Kaysa could feel a final wave of heat radiate the girl's body.
A satisfied grin enveloped Kaysa's face; she knew how to sway Shiv now, how to manipulate her. Kaysa's preference was still men, but she had to do what she needed to control Shiv, and this was the easiest way to do it. She was a naive, lonely girl yearning for someone in the universe to quench the aching in her heart and her cunt; Kaysa would be that for her until her purposes were served.
She let her fingers remain inside of Shiv for a moment longer, stroking the girl's hair gently, before she pulled out slowly, eliciting a final shudder and a gentle whimper in Shiv.
Shiv's breathing came in shuddering gasps. She opened her eyes to look into Kaysa's. Her heart ached with love, her body trembled with overwhelming feelings. In one night, she'd never known such pleasure or joy. She kissed Kaysa, a kiss tender and filled with the entirety of her heart and with a passion that still burned hotter than a star. She was completely exhausted, a most wonderful exhilarating exhaustion. She reached her hands, still trembling up, brushing across Kaysa's stomach and breasts, gently caressing chin and cheeks. Finally, out of breath, Shiv pulled back from the kiss, her eyes opening and immediately finding Kaysa's. "I love you, Kaysa," she said.
With that one statement, Kaysa truly understood how effective her seduction really had been. Shiv had turned over her body, her soul, her freedom to Kaysa, but now, she took it all with some trepidation. She wasn't certain if Shiv's profession was made blindly in the heat of passion, confusing love for ecstasy, or if the girl's feelings were genuine. The girl had given her entire being over to Kaysa in one night of physical pleasure and Kaysa realized the extent of Shiv's need, her loneliness and desperation; a person had to be truly all those things to fall in love with a scheming, cold bitch like herself.
But Shiv loved her, which meant she knew exactly how hard she could push the girl and how far she could extend her control over her, and at the moment, that appeared to be all the way.
Kaysa pulled Shiv into another embrace and buried the girl's face into her chest. She pitied Shiv for being so easily manipulated by her. She was so in love, she was completely blind to Kaysa's deception. She held it within her power now to completely destroy Shiv, emotionally moreso than anything. But her purpose was to use Shiv and unfortunately, the possible consequence of that was permanent psychological damage to a young, vulnerable girl, much like Kaysa had been at one time. She would break her spirit like Cadwin had broken hers. It was the cruelest fate anyone could be dealt, but it had to be done.
"Go to sleep now, Shiv," Kaysa said quietly. "We've a long day ahead of us tomorrow."
Kaysa could feel her own body trembling as she held onto Shiv's and was surprised to feel a warm trail of tears on her cheeks. She was a cruel woman - that she knew for certain - and she knew the tears were completely shed for herself. Her body had become an enormous void, bereft of any emotion. She knew she had sunk as low as anyone could get and still pass for a human being, but Kaysa was drifting precariously close to that line separating man from monster. Lying there, holding Shiv in her arms, she realized that lingering part of her humanity was slowly dissolving in the bitter acid of spite and hate that was born in her long ago, and the worst part of it was that anyone who got too close to her was at risk of being consumed as well.
Kaysa silenced the sobs growing in her throat and tried to force back the tears that refused to be suppressed. She was a monster; she realized that now, and no matter how much control she gained by manipulating poor creatures like Shiv, she was still powerless to stop the momentum of the looming darkness threatening to possess her. In that moment, Kaysa was convinced that she was truly damned.
Shiv was already drifting off to sleep in Kaysa's arms. Her breathing had changed to the shallow breaths taken by one nearly asleep. A gentle smile was on her face as she finally drifted completely into the realm of dreams. Held in Kaysa's arms as she was, Shiv couldn't have asked for a better night's sleep.
"Hunter Hunted"
By: Daemor'rah - Jedi/Bounty Huntress
Kylas Thoamis - Jedi Master
Location: New Plouton
Date: Thaniss 3, 3 ABY
***
Kylas had grown tired of waiting for Dargus and Evie to return. He knew
that with the Imperial bloackade, it would be only a matter of time before
the empire would try to conquer this isolated little planet. He left Dargus'
ship to head into the bowels of the under world. If anything he at the very
least hoped to find Rebels would could help him escape.
From the distance she felt a certain presence... Her bio implant told her
that this one was near. She grinned to herself. Yet another target, another
prize. It was becoming all too easy to bump into Jedi or Padawans in this
planet. Indeed had Tae'Karada been a good choice for her hunting grounds.
She picked up her long-projectile rifle she had set down and secured it,
getting up and ready for action. Whoever this was he or she was near. She
turned around and saw a man who would certainly fit the description.
Moreover, her bio implant suggested it was him.
She took a better look in order to slightly study him before she went for
the kill. This one had something different about him... Perhaps this one was
really worth a closer look, a closer kill, having her look him in the eyes
like a true hunter and its hunted prey.
Kylas felt the presense of another. A Jedi, no something different. He
looked around. This one was closer than he liked to feel. He could sense
it; she was a hunter. He closed his eyes and focused, he employed force
stealth.
He turned a corner, unable to be detected by force users and bio scanners.
He continued down the road. He could still feel her, she was still
following him. Come out and play, he pathed out to his stalker. His force
stealth was still up and he knelt. He focused his mind even more. Hiding
himself with stealth, he lunged into the air and jumped high enough to clear
to a window. He jumped again to the other side of the street to a rooftop,
and waited for her to turn the corner.
She had tracked him and sensed him disappear from her Force readings. Alas,
she could still heat sensor him as his body revealed a small path. She
followed him and knew she had been sensed also. Looking around at the zone
that she was in she saw as a good chance to get to him from upwards.
Besides, he would be expecting her.
Even if he could feel her presence a faster move would be harder to trace
with precision. She leaped on top of a building and took her lightsaber,
igniting it. She wanted to know what this one was like. She had never faced
a Jedi who had influence over both sides of the force as this one seemed to
have.
"Good girl, had to get you away from the people below, something to have
between you and me." He looked at her. "Now, why have you come hunting me,
don't you know it's not nice to hunt people?" His face remained calm and
blank. He never reached for his saber, his robes remained around him. "I
would really hate to have to kill you."
Daemor'rah grinned. "You can always try..." she replied to Kylas. "I hunt
you for what you are. A Jedi! You are the one who should be ashamed. If any
personality you had you would demise what you have become and turn away like
I." She then frowned. "But I have not come after you for small talk. I have
come as a hunter always does after prey. And unless you choose to die
without a fight, I advise you to withdraw your lightsaber! I shall not use
any weapons either for this encounter..." she told Kylas as she dropped both
her blasters as well as took off her long-projectile rifle.
"I am ashamed of what I was, but not of what I am!" he spoke loudly. "Here
bounty huntress, in the words and feelings of the here and now, I am not
ashamed, I am atoning for my crimes, by helping people and defending who I
am able to." He looked at her. "But are you so blinded by anger and your
need for revenge that you now hunt the innocent." He opened his cloak and
dropped it to the ground.
He extended his hand, used a slight force grip to squeeze her wrists and
make her drop her saber, when it fell from her hands: "I am giving you one
last chance, child. Walk away."
She felt her hands gripped and her saber pushed away from her, making it
fall onto the ground. She force pulled it back to her hands and force
gripped it so it would not fall again. She looked at the man in front of her
and smirked. "Hunt the innocent?! Are you innocent by any chance? You who
have walked in the Dark Side... Yes, I can feel you. But unlike you I walk
no path but my own free from the laws that corrupt your actions," she
replied.
Daemor'rah then frowned, a most serious and deadly look in her eyes. "I
need no chances! And I shall not give up my vow and curse upon you Jedi!"
She turned slightly so he could see the other sabers strapped in her belt.
"Others have tried to dissuade me and have failed... So shall you!"
Kylas shook his head. "Very well, come and take mine if you can." He
pulled his saber and ignited both ends. His force shield went up. If she
was going to beat him it would be by saber alone. "You will have to be far
more prepared for me than you have been in the past."
His movements exploded in a flurry of movements that were faster than any
she had faced before. Kylas held back though; he made sure that every
attack he did she could block. He also moved fast enough to block any
attack she threw at him. The battle began.
As his attacks came she made sure her movements were precise and fast
enough. She knew he was holding back and that his level of experience with
lightsabers was much greater than what he was using at the time being. This
would get her nowhere...
Jumping backwards with a somersault she sharpened her eyes. She too had been
holding back a little, but only because she knew she could not win on a fair
fight against this one she faced now. Nothing to matter too much.
Reaching the back of her belt she took a thermal detonator and ignited it.
She then smiled at him wickedly. "Any of your tricks and the both of us
go... I advise you to be careful, Jedi." And with that she force pulled her
blasters and her rifle back to her and strapped them on again.
"Fair enough, Huntress, but after today, know this: I know who you are, and
you become the hunted." He jumped and somersaulted backwards. His mind
lashed out and with all his might in a Force push, he flung her back off the
building into the air and he himself disappeared from the building and
quickly blended and lost in the crowd with force stealth.
As she was pushed beyond the building she tucked and did an acro-aerial,
falling down perfectly on her feet, even though the fall was a couple of
stories high. When she landed already had Kylas disappeared. Alas, the
encounter had been quite interesting and she had now something to aspire to.
A new trophy...
