Chapter 35
For the first time, Sally joined Ken, Jane and Ari in the bedroom. They
were at the point where closeness was what they wanted more than sex. She
hesitated slightly before climbing in with them, but Jane took her hand and
kissed her, pulling her down where she was caught by Ken and Arianwen. They
piled into the bed and drifted off to sleep. Ken opened his eyes minutes later
to see that he, Jane and Ari, were on the small beach by the stream where Jane
had been dedicated to Lea. Of course, the Goddess Herself was there, as well.
They kissed and hugged, Ari moving like she was in a dream, then sat down on the
pillows that appeared on the blanket they were on.
"I would say," began Lea, "that your party was quite a success."
"I'd have to agree," replied Ken. Lea was all but glowing with power.
She smiled at him, knowing his thoughts. "And I also see there's been a change
in status for one of my Priestesses."
Ari was sprawled more or less across both Ken and Jane, radiating
bone-deep contentment. She didn't even realize that she wasn't dreaming, never
mind that they were talking about her. For her, this was a dream -- her
Goddess, Master and Priestess were with her, and she was too content think about
anything.
"Arianwen," said Lea.
Ari's eyes snapped open, the realization that this wasn't a dream
flooding through her. Energy replaced lassitude, and she was quickly on her
knees in front of her Goddess.
"Mistress," she said bowing her head to the blanket.
Lea sighed gently and looked at Ken.
"It isn't my fault," he said. "Jane's been training her."
"Stand, love," said Lea.
Ari quickly stood, and Lea embraced her, then gave her a deep kiss. Ari
almost melted from the Goddess's touch, her body shivering back into a state of
arousal.
"You were my Priestess," said Lea, "And you may continue as such. But,
you can be more, if you desire. Jane is a High Priestess, which is a different
matter than being a Priestess. If you were to leave my service now, your life
would continue almost as it was before. The power that you have now would
quickly diminish until you were as other humans. However, if you bind yourself
to me as a High Priestess, that is a different matter. You could not easily
leave my service, and if you did, your life would most likely be very short.
Plus, there are those that would take you and kill you just because of what you
once were.
"I do not tell you this to frighten you. But you are young in years and
experience, and I want you to know the consequences of your actions."
Ari looked at the woman in front of her, tears in her eyes. She had a
smile on her face, and her nude body was held in a stance of anticipation. Ken
could tell it was all she could do not to drop to her knees again. Ari just
stood and looked at Lea.
"I see," smiled Lea. "Welcome, my love." They kissed again and
Arianwen almost fainted from the intensity. Ken and Jane held each other close
as Ari joined the Goddess in a way that only they could understand. Lea looked
up from her kiss, and Ken and Jane joined the two for hugs and more kisses.
They stayed in Her realm for a while, just relaxing and enjoying Her
presence. Ken especially enjoyed the sight of Arianwen and Lea getting into a
splash fight in the stream. He was utterly astonished when Jane crept from his
side and took Lea by 'surprise' from behind. He knew that he was in trouble
when all three of them looked at him.
Ken allowed himself to be dragged into the refreshing water and dunked
-- several times. At one point, he found his sense of self almost dissolving in
a kiss with Lea and they ended up back on the blanket with his cock sheathed in
her very hot sex. The four of them had a short, but very intense love making
session, and Ken wondered how many other people got to actually have sex with a
Goddess.
Finally, it was time to go. Lea kissed each of them in turn, starting
with Ken and ending with Arianwen. However, after kissing Ari, she looked at
the girl as if noticing the nipple rings for the first time.
"Those are very beautiful, Arianwen," she said taking the rings in her
fingers. Needless to say, Ari was a little sore which, also needless to say,
she found quite arousing. Nipple play excited her an amazing amount. Lea began
tugging on the rings, and flames of lust raced through Ari's body. Ken thought
he saw crackles of forest-green energy coat the rings and sink into Ari's
nipples. Certainly something happened, because the girl stiffened and came, her
orgasm drawing out for a long, long time. The light dimmed, and just before
they lapsed back into sleep, Ken heard Her say, "Enjoy my gift to you, Minx."
It wasn't too late in the morning when Ken woke. Sally was gone,
unfortunately, and Jane was spooning with Ari, both of them deeply asleep. He
slipped out of bed and into the room that he'd designated as a practice room for
martial arts. He stayed there for an hour or so, stretching and running through
some of his forms. He headed back to the bedroom for a shower, then went
downstairs.
Sally had fixed a brunch, and people were relaxing by the pool. Ellen
and Kim were on a lounge, Kim laying face up between Ellen's legs, blissfully
asleep. Bill and Genie were laying side by side on a towel holding hands. Sally
was feeding the baby, and Eric was talking with Gary. Sandy was in the pool,
swimming laps.
They all greeted Ken as he sat down and started eat.
"You are an excellent cook, Sandy," he said.
"Thank you, Master Ken," she said, popping the baby's mouth off one
brown nipple then offering the other one. Christine gurgled in contentment at
the new offering and went back to eating.
Ken chuckled and said, "Looks like Christine agrees."
"She's been very happy since we got here. She fussed a lot before I ...
well, before we came here, but now she doesn't fuss at all. It's nice, but a
little strange."
Ken looked at the baby. He really had no desire to have one of his own
but wondered if Jane or Arianwen wanted children. Time slowed and seemed to
shift around him, and he saw a girl, perhaps 10 or 11 standing before him,
naked. She was slim and coltish, as girls often were at that age, but tall.
Her hair was white blond, her nipples dark like her mother's, and she was
flushed with sexual arousal -- and a great deal of anger. Her fists were balled
at her sides, but it was clear she was displaying her body defiantly, sexually,
as if in challenge to someone.
The scene shifted again. The girl had grown to a woman, tall and
strong. She was dressed in a black, tight-fitting suit that suggested some kind
of body armor, and she and Ken were back to back. They were outside, the sky
black with storm clouds as torrential rain poured and lightening flashed through
the sky. They were defending themselves against indistinct attackers who seemed
endless in their numbers. None survived being close to the two of them, but
there were so many...
Abruptly he was back at the table, and Sally was looking at him
strangely.
"Are you OK?"
"Yeah," he replied, wondering what the hell that was all about. Had he
seen a fantasy of Sally's? Christine's? No, that didn't make sense, nor had it
felt like a fantasy. That was odd.
"For just a second, I felt, I don't know, something," she said.
"No, I'm OK," he said. "I ... well, something did happen, but I'm not
sure what it was."
The moment passed, and eventually Ari and Jane came downstairs and began
to put away some serious food. Gary walked over and sat down with them.
"How do you feel this morning, Ari?" asked Gary
"Mmm, wonderful Sir. What did you have in mind?" The tone of her voice
left little doubt what she had in mind.
Gary chuckled and said, "I don't want to wear you out. You're such a
tiny little thing."
Ari smiled at him as she stood with plate in hand, and a second later,
Gary had a lap full of naked teen. She sat sideways so she could continue to
decimate her Belgian waffle. Gary, for some reason trying to stave off the
inevitable, looked at her piercings. Then looked again. Ken felt his shock as
he realized there was no redness or swelling and they appeared completely
healed. That was because they were completely healed, but Gary knew that was
impossible.
"Maybe we should talk about aftercare for your piercings," he said.
Ken, following his thoughts, knew he was probing for information. Nipple
piercings did NOT heal overnight. "Especially considering your fondness for
certain kinds of rather unsanitary play."
"I don't think it'll be a problem, Sir. I heal very fast. In fact,
they already feel just fine. Why don't you pull them a little to make sure?"
she said as she thrust her small chest out.
Gary, still not believing his eyes, gently took a ring between his
fingers. That was when Ken found out what Lea had done to Ari. She groaned,
and he, and the rest of the Circle, felt her body flood with arousal. It felt
like her nipples now had the same connection to her brain as her clit.
Ken looked closely at his little slave, and it felt like time slowed.
Her skin began to glow, then the glow resolved into tracings of white light
running through her body, clusters that connected to each other and were
centered on her erogenous zones. The thickest of these clusters was in her
groin, but there were two other clusters, only very slightly thinner, that
resided where her nipples were. Ken realized that Lea had somehow added to the
teen's nervous system so that her nipples were, indeed, almost as reactive to
sexual pleasure as her clit. Very interesting. Time resumed its normal pace,
and he watched Gary drop the piercing as if it were hot.
"Shit Ari," he said, "I'm sorry! I didn't realize they still hurt so
much."
Ari, who'd forgotten all about her food, spun and straddled his lap,
facing him.
"Master Gary, please don't stop. That felt amazing! Please, please,
Master, play with them more. Please, I'd like an orgasm, Sir," said the panting
girl.
Now that her legs were spread and her hot little cunt resting on Gary's
bulging cock, moisture began leaking from her. Her scent, hot and needy, made
him forget his concern and he took both rings in his fingers and began pulling
again. Ari's hand whipped between her legs, but Ken's sharp command stopped
her.
"Put your hands behind your back, Ari," he said.
She was panting and rotating her hips, sweat breaking out on her pale
skin. "Yes Master," she gasped. "May I please cum?"
"That's up to Master Gary, love," Ken replied.
She just looked at him, and he nodded. Arianwen leaned back, causing
the rings to pull her nipples very hard, and came, her body shaken by a strong
climax. She continued to try and lean further, but Gary, afraid of damaging her
nipples, grabbed her behind her shoulders and held her.
"Please, oh Goddess, please, I'm so close. One more?"
Gary started tugging gently again, and Ari continued to beg, "Oh
Goddess, tug it, twist a little, oh guh... uh, aaaAAH!" she came again, her
stomach muscles rippling and her cunt drooling on Gary's shorts. She leaned
forward and hugged him.
"Thank you, thank you," she purred. "Sir," she whispered, "Is there
anything I can do for you?"
Now Gary, Ken knew, was proud of his sexual stamina, and with good
reason. But until Ari sat in his lap, he'd been well sated from the previous
evening, with little arousal left in his body. He'd come quite a few times last
night, and figured it'd be a while before he felt this wildly aroused. He was
wrong, and soon the teen was giving him another blow job, right there at the
table. Ari's actions caused lustful energy to spiral out to encompass everyone
in the area. Soon, groups of two's and three's were making love. Jane and Ken
were no exception, and they kissed lovingly as they walked to the other end of
the pool where a small diving board was.
Ken had Jane lay her with her chest on the rough surface, then proceeded
to fuck her from behind. As always, she was tight enough that he had to almost
force his way into her. She groaned and held tightly onto the board, her
breasts being chafed by the rough surface as he plowed into her. She came, then
came again as he emptied his cum into her. Pulling her off the board, they
stood and kissed. She knelt and licked their spend off his cock and they looked
around. Most of the others were finished as well, but Ken was treated to the
sight of Genie on her hands and knees being fucked by Eric. She was
tongue-fucking Annette's asshole as the woman lay on her back with her legs up
to her shoulders. She was deep-throating Bill, who was just then cumming.
The Minx strikes again, thought Ken. Apparently becoming a High
Priestess had increased her area of effect.
They all rinsed off in the shower by the pool and settled down for some
serious lounging. Ellen and Kim decided to leave at around two, and Ken went to
talk to them.
"You guys need to take off?" he asked.
"Well," said Ellen, "We don't really have anything else to wear, and we
don't want to overstay our welcome." They didn't want to go, he knew, but they
were afraid that if they stayed now, they wouldn't want to leave until Monday.
Ellen really didn't want to leave, since she hadn't gotten any of his cock.
"Ellen," he said seriously, "you should feel free to leave if you want.
But you guys are more than welcome to stay. Tonight, tomorrow night, till next
month -- I don't care, and neither do Ari or Jane. We like having you here."
"I..." she began, embarrassed by his offer.
"Mistress Ellen," said Jane slipping into the Domme's arms, "really.
You can stay as long as you want."
Ellen's senses were filled with Jane's scent and the feel of her warm
body pressing against her own. She couldn't help but react, her pussy swelling
and getting wet, as she imagined using her whip on this beautiful woman again.
"Yes, Mistress," whispered Jane, "you can have that, and more. But
truly, if you need to leave, or you're uncomfortable, we won't keep you." She
slid, reluctantly, out of Ellen's arms. Ellen was flustered enough that she
didn't even think to question how Jane had known what she was thinking. Jane,
of course, had just slid into the brief fantasy that Ellen had had.
Ellen looked down at Kim, kneeling at her feet and asked, "What do you
think?"
"I think, Mistress," replied the woman, "that I should go get enough
clothes for us to stay until Monday morning."
Ellen looked at a grinning Ken and said, "Do you ever wonder who's
actually running things around here?"
Ken laughed and replied, "Jane, do you want to go with Kim to help her
pick up clothes?"
"Oh, no Master, it's okay, I don't need..."
"Kim," came Ellen's sharp voice. "You will take Jane and you will obey
her commands as if they were mine."
"Yes, Mistress," responded Kim.
Ellen looked at Ken, who looked at Jane. "Well," he said, "you have
your instructions. Just don't get into an accident."
Jane smiled and looked down at Kim. "I'm sure we'll be fine, Master,"
she replied. Of course, the main thing running through Jane's mind was how she
could best satisfy Kim.
While they were gone, Ken decided to relax on a lounge in the sun.
Everyone else was napping, except Ari and Sandy who were under a stand of trees
not too far away, holding hands and talking as they walked in the shade. Gary
plopped himself down next to Ken.
"You said you'd explain about how Arianwen could do what she did the
other day," said Gary. "And last night, that piercing was more than just you
marking her your slave." He paused and looked thoughtful. "What, exactly, is
she a Priestess of?"
Ken sighed and looked at Gary. He didn't want to lie to the man, but he
had no way of knowing how he'd react to the truth. He decided to just ease his
way into an explanation.
"A religion that worships sex," replied Ken. "So are Jane and Sally. "
Gary looked at Ken sharply. He didn't seem to be a nut, but he also
seemed to be perfectly serious.
"What about you?" he asked. "Where do you stand in this ... religion?"
"Look Gary, I don't want to offend you or anything. People can be very
uptight when it comes to religion."
"You're not gonna offend me. I've been an Atheist all my life. Just
because I don't believe doesn't mean that I think no one else should."
"Just out of curiosity, why are you an Atheist?" asked Ken.
"You answer first," grinned Gary.
"OK, I'm a Priest," replied Ken.
"There's no proof," said Gary, "And no way *to* prove anything. At
least, not until you're dead, and by then it might be a little late."
"What is proof?" asked Ken.
"Good question," he replied.
Eric walked over and decided to sit down. He'd heard what they were
talking about, and was still wrestling with issues himself. His fight was about
over though, Ken sensed. There was just too much evidence around him to
disbelieve his senses.
"May I join in?" he asked.
"Sure," replied Gary. "We were just going to discuss what constitutes
proof that a God exists."
"Or Goddess," smiled Eric. Yup, Ken though, Eric was all but Circle.
"Suppose," started Ken, "you could actually talk to your Goddess?"
"People talk to god all the time," replied Gary, "problem is, he never
responds."
"What if She did respond," said Eric. "What if you could actually see
Her, touch Her?"
"What, she'd just appear in front of you?" laughed Gary. "OK, so she
does. Then what? How does she prove she's a goddess?"
"Suppose," replied Eric, "She knew what you were thinking. Suppose She
could take you somewhere in the blink of an eye, a place you'd never been?
Suppose," he continued in a softer voice, "you could actually see Her work
magic?"
Gary smiled and replied, "I quote 'Any sufficiently advanced technology
is indistinguishable from magic.'" Then he said, narrowing his eyes at Eric,
"Are you a Priest, too?"
Eric laughed and just said, "Nope."
More people joined the conversation, tossing ideas this way and that.
Ken saw that Gary noticed that he added little to the conversation, and that
Sally and Ari were mostly silent as well. When Ken got up to get something to
drink, Gary followed him.
"If you're a Priest," he said, his tone curious, "why aren't you
defending your position?"
"I don't need to. We were discussing what constitutes proof of a
Goddess. I know what constitutes proof for me. I have that proof and have
presented it to you, or rather Eric did with his questions."
"You're telling me that you've met a god."
"I have never met a god," replied Ken. He was back at his seat before
Gary remembered that Eric had been talking about a Goddess.
Sally, Genie and Sandy went inside to start preparing dinner, and Bill
and Ken got up to fire up the grill. Arianwen was laying, naked of course, with
her head in Annette's equally naked lap. Annette had participated in the
conversation, but Ari had just lain there, enjoying the feel of the other woman
against her skin.
Annette reached down to gently touch Ari's new rings and asked, "How do
they feel?"
"Mmmm, so good," replied Ari. "Pull them all you want, but be prepared
to be attacked if you do." The teen's fingers sliding up Annette's ribs and the
expression on her face left little doubt of what kind of attack Annette could
expect.
"You shouldn't be too rough with them, Ari. They need time to heal."
Ari smiled, her eyes still closed, and replied, "They're already healed,
so don't let that stop you."
Annette frowned and said, "Wait, didn't you just get these last night?"
"Yup."
"Then they can't be healed yet."
"If you say so," replied Ari. She was too comfortable being near
Annette to worry about trifles like miraculous healing.
Gary had heard the exchange and got up from his chair. Ken watched the
man thoughtfully approach Arianwen and bend down. He examined her nipple
closely. As he'd noted earlier, there was no sign that it was a fresh piercing.
He still wasn't entirely convinced they were healed.
"Ari," he said, "you really think it's healed."
"Yes, Master Gary."
"Then you won't mind if I remove one of them?"
"No, Sir. Will you put it back though? I don't think Master Ken would
like me wearing only one ring. Aesthetics and all." The girl still had not
opened her eyes.
Gary carefully removed the ring that he'd watched Ken insert into a
fresh hole last night. There was no sign of blood or any discharge on it or
coming from her nipple. The girl shivered when he pulled it out, but it
obviously wasn't from pain. The patterns on the ring looked different. He
couldn't tell what the difference was, but he'd watched Annette work on these,
and the etching she'd placed in the gold was different.
He handed it to Annette, who immediately said, "Ari? Did you dip this
in something? The color's changed a little."
"Nope."
Either Ari was lying, thought Annette, or something had actually changed
the metal. These were her work, no doubt about it, but they'd been yellow gold
yesterday. Today, they were still yellow gold, but it seemed lighter, and the
inlay was traced with copper red. Sort of like the ring that Ari was wearing on
her finger.
"Ari, can I see your ring?" asked Annette.
"You've got it in your hand."
"No, the one on your finger."
"What ring on my..." said Ari sitting up and looking at her hand.
There, just like the one that Ken and Jane had, was a delicate ring made of a
white metal with copper patterns inlaid in it. There was a beautiful green
stone in the middle, which Ari noted matched the color or Lea's eyes, just as
the copper matched the color of Her hair. How had she not noticed it? Ken
looked over at her and just smiled. Ari smiled back, but was hesitant to remove
the ring. So instead she held up her hand for Annette to see.
The workmanship was stunning. Annette knew that she did excellent work,
but this! If she worked her whole life, she didn't think she'd ever be able to
make something this beautiful.
"Where did you get this?" she asked, completely forgetting Ari's
reaction to the ring. Gary didn't though. The teen could have meant that she'd
forgotten she had it on, but he didn't think so. While he knew that Ken and
Jane had one like this, Ari hadn't been wearing one yesterday. Surely, there
was more going on here than met the eye. Gary was intrigued.
"It was a gift."
"From who? It's amazing work -- I've never seen anything like it."
Ari shifted nervously. She didn't want to tell them where she'd gotten
the ring because they weren't ready yet.
"Master Gary, would you put my nipple ring back in?" asked the girl.
Ah yes, the other mystery, thought Gary. She was healed, no doubt about
it. Ken followed his thoughts and was surprised. Gary had decided that he
didn't have enough information to figure out what was going on with Ari. He
decided to remember the things he discovered about these people, though. Jane's
unusual strength, she'd actually bent a frame made of tube steel the other day,
Ari's ability to easily seduce someone, and now her ability to heal overnight.
His eyes narrowed as Ken heard him come to the realization that it
wasn't only Ari that healed fast. There wasn't a single bruise on Jane's skin
anywhere. All the welts, cuts and bruises caused by what she'd been subjected
to last evening were completely gone. Hmmm. More to ponder.
