Five

She woke disorientated. Laying over a hard body, one arm clamped across her back holding her to him. One look told her they were both fully clothed.

She was married….

They were married…..

She smiled. Had that really happened?.....

His hand squeezed her side. "You're awake. Good morning wife."

"Good morning. You're a very comfy pillow."

"Am I?" He turned them both to her squeal on to her back and stared into her face. "You sleep better with me. No longer restless. Do I get a kiss wife? You know for being so useful?"

She chuckled. "Begging? It's a little unseemly."

"You want me on my knees Helena, I'll get on my knees willingly." He told her intensely.

She shook her head not liking the change in the banter. "I don't want you on your knees. I kinda like you where you are."

"Really?" He moved and her eyes flared feeling how hard he was. He kissed her lightly and ran his lips along her cheek to her ear. "I'm glad you like me here. I want to stay very much but we have little time before the day breaks. But we have time for a little pleasure if you want it." He kissed down her neck to the shoulder and slipped the buttons free of her shirt. Kissing down her chest, he swept her shirt aside and to her shock mouthed her breast. "Beautiful Helena, I can feel your heat rising. Do you want your husband?"

Her body felt like it would explode. It seemed like she"d been waiting for this moment forever. "Yes, I do."

"Then you shall have him."

Sitting up, he pulled his top over his head throwing it to one side. All that delicious muscle on show in the dimmed light. Her hands moved down it mapping every inch as he pulled her shirt clear of her pants, her hands going to his buckle and undoing it, slipping the buttons free as he crawled down her body kissing his way, undoing hers and pulling them and her panties free of her legs, now both naked, he kissed up her legs to her thighs, burying his face in her heat as he pulled her legs open breathing in and licked her.

"Mine!" He growled. That rawness she'd witnessed once before back.

She jumped not expecting it.

His hands caressing her body as her own hands explored his head.

She'd never felt so alive in her life.

The touches, licking and sucking on her sensitive button overwhelming. Her body shuddering and tingling, she arched crying out, it was almost too much, and he growled sending shockwaves through her body. The power within her rolling through her. Her hand clenched in his hair as she moved her legs wider needing more.

His hands there, teasing her, coaxing the power higher, she held on a precipice scared to fall, and then it was all over, his finger entered her as he sucked on her and she blew. The shockwave of delight and extreme pleasure drowning her. Taking her over as she screamed out her release. His hand suddenly there, muffling it.

Holy shit….

She panted. Her breath strained. In the fog of her mind, the bonelessness that followed the fall, took her breath away as he kissed his way back up her body and she felt him at her entrance. His gaze all on her, he thrust in two fingers and stretched her, flexed to her moan, then gave her a third and moved them stretching her again, pulling her wider. Her pleasure saturating her, he slowly removed his fingers his cock right there and pushed in breaching her. His thrusts shallow as he held her legs wider while holding her eyes, his dark pools hypnotizing her. Taking her over. Watching her every move.

This beautiful man wanted and needed her.

She clung to him as he rode her. Feeling every part of him through her hands and body. His strong powerful thrusts driving into her. She moaned. The feeling of him moving in and out of her body intoxicating.

"Can't go deeper female. I don't want to tare you. You've never had a male before I'm liking that very much." He pounded each word into her. "But I'll need you ready to take me. I'm not small and it will take some time. Time I'm sorry I do not have now to do this right." He drove in deeper, pulling and thrusting in. His tempo rising along with her heat.

Her moan hit the air unable to hold it in. He was driving her crazy. Her breasts so heavy they ached, her nipples so hard she thought they'd burst.

He was driving her emotions on, the release, ‘climax' rolled right back, his hand in her heat rubbing and grinding against her body, electric in time with each thrust and suddenly, her body crested and exploded again. On her cry, he dominated her, going faster and faster looking out of control above her and planted deeper driving her channel apart on a silent roar to the ceiling as his own release came.

Panting, her nails bit in to his flesh in wonder. Shudders wreaking her body as he lay over her taking his weight smiling down on her. "My wife Helena." He choked out emotionally.

"My husband."

"We are joined now yes?" He sounded unsure. Still buried inside her.

"I'm married, had sex with my husband, I'd say we were joined."

He kissed her lips. Lingered over them, taking it deeper. Exploring, toying with her tongue before pulling back and holding his lips against her own. "You are happy Helena?"

"You can read me, you know how happy I am right now."

He brushed her lips again. "Well wife, we need a shower. Time to get up." He picked her up still in her and carried her into the shower to her squeal, turning the water on, washing her standing under the water as she laughed, then took the soap and washed him and slowly her heat started to rise again as he touched her and she touched him. He started to move against her again. Rocking into her body to her moans as she held his face and kissed him, he took his time moving slowly in and out of her body, the burn slowly building, her body on fire. Her nipples hardened and beasts heavy. As he encouraged her to take what she needed from him.

"I need…." She cried out.

"Yes, I feel it female." And drove in deeper, stroke on stroke, the pain and stretch followed by the pleasure. She held on lost to the sensations feeling her emotions all over the place. All sense of anything else lost to her. Just need. Want. Needing. Moving faster he coaxed her wave as it increased in tempo, rolling and crashing inside her, the ebb and flow rising and rising, crawling up her spine, she tensed, suddenly overwhelmed with emotion, tears hitting her, he cupped her face and kissed her as he drove on. "We have this, us, we get to live." He told her.

Her passion sweeping over her, her release came in tears and passion as he followed her over holding her. Talking to her. Telling her they were together now and could do anything.

And in that moment, she believed him.

****

They were dressed, standing, holding each other close enjoying the peace and moment of just being when a knock sounded, the door opening had Jacqs standing in the doorway.

"Well I see you got a room." She told them cheekily. They both turned to her not letting go of each other. "It was about time; all that pent up angst was getting to everyone."

"Jacqs!" She told her horrified.

She shrugged. "It's true. You've loved him for years; he's love you for just as many. It was time. Over time if you ask me."

"Oh really and when exactly do you think that I should have made a move then?" she asked her amused.

"10 Years ago."

She laughed. "Don't be ridiculous. I was 15 and he was just out of a crate."

"Sounds good to me." Jacqs winked.

She narrowed her eyes at her. "You'd better not be dating Jacqs, your too young."

She put her hands up. "Not dating. Just…. looking. We do have the best candy shop in town." Jacqs smirked.

"Oh my god, I made a horror." She told them mocking.

Blad took her face and turned it up to him. "You did a fine job wife."

"Wife?" Jacqs asked shock and surprise in her voice.

"We married and recorded it with Aquarius." Blad told her.

"Can you do that? You know being Cyborg?"

"Jacqs that rude." She told her off.

Jacqs shrugged. "I'm just curious sis. Want to know you're all good."

"We do not lie little one. You know this. She is my wife, and I am one lucky happy male."

Jacqs threw herself at both of them. "I'm so happy for you." Her voice full of emotion.

She patted her back. "Okay, okay breakfast and we have work to do."

The first of their plans came in with the mid-morning patrol. It was a bust. No leaks, no one waiting. No ambush. Although that could have been caution on their part. Tunnel 2 hadn't shown a hand. But they'd try a few more times and see what gives. Tunnel 3 would be telling mid-afternoon.

Keeping to her routine she worked trying not to let her mind drift on what had happened. She was a little mind blown and a little sore. He wasn't kidding when he said he was big. It had all happened so fast, so unexpected, he had certainly rocked her world. She'd never considered that joining with someone could be so….. consuming. All she could think about was how he'd made her feel, how beautiful he was. Packed with muscle he seemed so much more.

How lucky she'd become.

It was ironic that she'd lost all the love in her life or most of it, only to have that terrible event provide the most amazing loving experience.

Did she deserve such love after everything that had happened?.....

Her doubts, stayed with her as she worked out with Jacqs, they took lunch as normal, Jacqs did some schooling and worked with one of the Cyborg medics on treatments. Leaving them to it she looked over their next raid plans adding notes or questions. Biding her time, until the patrol would be back led by her husband.

How strange that sounded.

Her husband…..

"Helena, the Commander is back."

"Thank you Aquarius, which exit?"

"East."

She stood waiting amongst the auto guns guarding this entrance. Hearing the door open his men stepping in. With a nod they walked past her. Blad walking through last securing the door behind him. He turned to her, and she knew. They'd turned up at the meet. It was just as well the actual place they'd been had been miles off. Tunnel 3 was the problem. With a nod, he came to her.

"I'm sorry." He told her.

She nodded. "So am I. Do we know for sure how they are getting the intel out?"

"No. We'll have to go there and ask."

"Before you do, we need more cameras out there. I know your eyesight is good for a couple of miles, if they think you are Cyborg, they'll know that too."

"We've no evidence to suggest they know we're here at all, but we'll set it up. Go in quietly and lock everyone down, then start the interviews."

Picking her up he walked carrying her. "They'll see you for sure if we do that. Maybe there's another way. The raiders would have to have leverage on those people if they weren't just greedy individuals looking for a better deal. And that's not who we are. Or who we weren't before they came."

"True."

"Can't we have Aquarius look at the community records, see who has family that are still here or dead and missing and identify those that are captive? She'd have the records of everyone."

"Could work." He glazed over communicating over his neuro net to Aquarius. That was sexy as hell. Then they cleared.

"Do you think they're here laying in wait somewhere?"

"We've no evidence of that either. We've found nothing for miles. They're more likely using a communicator, turning it on and off stashed somewhere. Go out make the call go back. Access to the tunnels is regulated for protection, but no one is stopped from leaving if it's done the right way. But only we know where we are and Aquarius is monitoring for that now that we know; more cameras are going out." He put her down, caging her in on the sofa. "I'm moving in with my wife."

"Really? What did she have to say when you asked?"

"Whose asking?"

"Oh good. For a minute there I thought I'd gone deaf." She gave him a horrified look then rolled her eyes.

"Well if she doesn't want him, he'll have to work harder on being indispensable." He wiggled his eyebrows.

She smirked. "I guess I could have a word. Remind her of how invaluable you are."

"Is that all? I'm useful Helena?"

She didn't like the chill coming off him all of a sudden.

He was worried she didn't care for him, not really. For such a large man so in control, he doubted her, his confidence in making her happy just not there. It was a reminder that they had no experience of sharing themselves intimately, lovingly with others, this was as alien to him as this new world was to her. Not liking at all that she"d unwittingly upset him. Placing her hand on his face she pulled it towards him and brushed his lips.

"You are the man I have wanted practically from the moment I first saw you in that crate. I was too young to know what it meant then. And since, those feelings only got stronger. You have tempted me and driven me to distraction since I turned 17. I have lost hours of sleep because of you, wanting you, trying to deny it. You were right when you said I'd been unable to sleep at times thinking of you, needing to exhaust myself not to crave you. Trying to stay out of your way, stay focused. I did things that were stupid trying to push you away, or try to dislike you, have you dislike me. I've not been blind all these years. I saw the heat in your eyes, and it scared me. Not you, but for what it means. And I tried very hard not to dwell on it like a lovesick puppy. Fearing what it would mean if I allowed it to take me over. If I had to face rejection. What it would mean for us. Plus there's the whole locked up in here with me and no one else to tempt you thing. We're fighting a war; we could be gone tomorrow. I feared my feelings, feared your rejection and then where would I be? Alone. Without you and that, I couldn't bear."

He brushed her lips with his own. "That was, is, never going to happen sweetheart. It is true there are no other women here but you and Jacqs but I have seen many and none of them, give me the reaction I saw the moment you woke me in that crate. I was shocked by it. Confused. You were a child and yet, my systems were registering interest. Registering a connection, I did not understand. But with time, it became very clear to me. I wanted the woman you would become."

"I know that now." She told him honestly gazing into those beautiful eyes.

"So you love me like a human?" he asked uncertainty. It sounded hopeful and she hated hearing it. It sounded so wrong. He should be relishing her love for him and realised that in her self-preservation, trying to keep a distance from him, she'd raised these doubts in his mind.

"No." She told him determinedly. He needed to know exactly how she felt. "I love you like you are. Always have."

****

The news that they were married spread fast.

For days after, while they worked out what they were going to do next, Jacqs kept pushing for a party, but she held back. Too many people were being harmed for a party to feel right. She'd explained it the best she could and said they could have their own private one. Just the two of them if she wanted.

But Jacqs wasn't impressed.

It was hard to remember what she'd been like when she was 15 but Jacqs determination never ceased to amaze her. She watched her now laughing and talking with some of the men in the living space off duty, wrapping them around her little finger, teasing them, being pushy. Dinner done, the night drawing in. Patrols about to change. She knew just how close Jacqs was to his number one Tane. When both were in the tunnels, they were rarely apart.

Since that first day, when they'd sat with her at that table, him captivated by her stories, they were often huddled together, talking, working on something. In the early days, her homework or projects and later, their interaction becoming more mature, lots of time spent, talking, laughing, him training her.

She was worried Jacqs was becoming fixated. They were all she knew.

Who could blame her?.... Hadn't she gone through the same thing?...

But she'd only picked up on it when she'd hit 17. A late bloomer. Jacqs was still 15 going on 30.

Hot lips touched her neck.

"She is so much like you were at that age."

"Really? It's hard to remember now."

"I remember it all. Every moment of being with you from the time you woke us up. They all love her. A child they never had."

"You mean they never all loved me?" she asked cheekily.

"I wouldn't let them. They knew how I felt. Unable to hide it once you were injured that first time my emotions overflowed and exploded. It was obvious to them all. Shared neuro net." He tapped his head.

She turned and looked up at him. "You aren't sharing everything right?" she whispered horrified at the thought.

His smile turned wicked. Heated. She could feel the fire burning in his eyes. Every chance he got he was with her. In her. Driving for deeper but still not all in. His hand grasped her neck, his lips finding hers. Hovering over them. "I'm not sharing us wife." He whispered but she knew the other Cyborgs could hear it if they chose to. Then pulled back and stood, arms over his chest facing the room.

"Jacqs, its bedtime. Get moving."

"What?" Jacq's stopped in mid flow explaining something she'd read and turned to face them, her face a picture. She'd never pushed her to go to bed. Jacqs always went when she was ready and never pushed it. But now at 15, she wanted to stay up like she had. Only Jacqs wasn't her and she needed her sleep. Without it she was cranky. Real cranky.

"You heard me. Brother-in-law privileges. You answer to me now. Man of the house and you're tired."

Keeping her face straight wasn't easy. Jacqs face continuing to be a picture as she stood. Disbelief riding her. "You'd better be shitting me Blad."

"Watch your language or you'll be grounded. Nope and stop ogling my men. It makes them uncomfortable."

Jacqs mouth dropped open. Her face flamed.

So Busted…..

"I…. I do no such thing! I can't help it if all that goodness is right there before my eyes. I'm training to be a medic. What should I do? Keep them closed? That would be painful. To them."

He looked at his men. "She's off limits until she's 21, maybe longer, depends on her maturity."

"What the fuck! Helena put your husband straight and tell him to back off or he's going to get a kick in the balls."

She shrugged. "Watch the language and I agree. You're tired and not ready for them believe me. I'm barely ready and like you said, too much candy in this store." The men smirked.

Jacqs turned back to Blads First. Tane. Her best friend and likely more. "You just going to sit there and let that shit happen?"

He gave a nod. "Yeah pretty much. You need reeling in, you don't listen to me, and I'm exhausted trying."

Jacqs mouth opened again shock littered her face. Guess it was a day for revelations, and Jacqs hands went to her hips and she snarled up at him. Still taller than her sitting down. "I exhaust you? Did you really just say that to me? What happened to Mr Supportive? He buckle under the weight of command?" Jacqs spat out. Tane just stared at her giving nothing away. "Right. Don't you come crying to me when you need tending. Find an Autobot. You're on my shit list!"

Throwing her hands in the air she stomped to her room. They all sat there in degrees of mild amusement until she screamed in frustration down the dorm corridor, and her door slammed shut. Hard. Tane went to get up and she shook her head and he sat back down again. Clearly undecided on what to do.

"I think you might have over played your hand husband." She told Blad looking up.

"Deliberately so." Blad was looking at his men. Then looked at his First. She followed his gaze and narrowed her eyes at Tane.

He put his hands up. "I'd never hurt her." He told her straight. "She's too young like you were."

She looked back at Blad. She'd never considered this. Tane cared for Jacqs, it was more than just friendship.

Blad confirmed it. "He cares for her. Can scent her interest. And will wait. If she chooses him, he'll be a lucky man."

The whole not till she's 21 now made sense. He wasn't kidding. She kinda felt sorry for him. Jacqs could be a pain in the ass when upset.

"Hope you know what you're doing." She told both of them getting off the sofa. With a stroke down her man's torso, she headed to their room. She could almost hear the silent conversation going on in their minds.

Blad had drawn lines. And they wouldn't go over them.

****

He stripped, showered and joined her, taking his time to map her body. Then turned her and worked her muscles. "She's going to be pissed at you and Tane."

"He was finding it hard to say no to her and asked for help. Wanting to please her, she was taking advantage of it. Where you were petulant and surly, she is using his affection for her, putting him under pressure. Asking why he wouldn't touch her while being provocative and making demands that were not reasonable. Now the balance has been reset."

"She was acting spoilt and demanding?"

"In some ways yes. No one has ever really given her parameters. She was a kind and giving child. Always so engaging. You love her, know what she's been through and find it difficult to reel her in. And to be fair until recently, it wasn't a real issue. We all love her and don't want to punish her either, but she has to learn Helena. Tane cares for her deeply, wants to make her happy but he also knows she's too young for him. Like I knew at that same time in your life, you were too young and not ready for me. It's a delicate balance."

"In other words, I did a crap job."

He smothered her back with his heat. "You were a child bringing up a child with 76 Cyborgs who didn't know the first thing about children to help you. She came out okay. You did good. You'll make a wonderful mother."

He kneeled up and lifted her legs wide. Pulling her ass up, his cock was at her entrance. She held her breath under him as he pushed in slow relishing the feel of him joining with her and starting that rhythm driving into her. Drowning in the sensation of them both together. Joined as they should be. The feel of him stretching her and filling her would have brought him to his knees if she wasn't already on them. Helena moaned. His hands on her hips holding her still and open as he started to pound. Needing to go deeper, stretching her on every thrust. Until he bottomed out on her cry at the burn and stayed there. His heat covering her back once more. The stretch and burn filling her for a moment. She groaned as her body tingled under him. It felt so good.

"You okay? Needed all in." He had to ask.

"Umm… I'm good."

Giving her body time to adjust. He kissed her head. "Do you want children Helena?" He asked her softly holding there.

"Maybe, in time." He started to move, pulling out and driving in. "Oooo. That's amazing. Don't stop."

"I've no intension of stopping wife, I need you too much." He rode her with deep fast thrusts, his balls hitting her butt. Driving faster and faster, her heat rising as she clawed the sheets. Her need flowing, rising, rolling through her body, cresting…

"I need…." She cried out.

He slammed into her and ground against her body, his hand finding her pleasure button and rubbing hard. She came apart on a scream she muffled with her own hand. Him moving faster into her, barely aware on the pleasure train until he planted in deep and bit her shoulder. The pain of him breaking skin was taken over by the pleasure hitting her again, his mouth on her sucking her, then licking the area. As she instinctively turned her head to him, he nicked it and she found her lips on his wet skin. His blood.

He'd nicked his neck for her to take from him.

It was such a primal thing. His bite bubbled against her skin under his tongue and the pain was gone, pulling away from her, he brushed the blood from her lips onto his thumb and placed it in her mouth.

"The need to bite was strong. My beast needing to bond. You're okay?" She nodded sucking his thumb tasting him. "Good. Take it. It's me, giving to you."

She sucked on his thumb as he watched her, then he pulled his thumb free and bit into the fleshy part of his hand and gave that to her too, she drank him down without hesitation and he brushed her hair away loving the feel of it in his hands.

"They told us our blood is dangerous to humans. But that was a lie. I know that now. It might help you be stronger, but I don't know for sure. What my logic tells me, is that I need you to have a part of me. But I can't give you children Helena. I'm sorry. No Cyborg can. If you want them, you'll need to find a human male."

She pushed his hand away. "I married you." She whispered on a moan of pleasure as her body suddenly lit up.

"But I can't give you that."

"Then we'll go without. There will be children out there who are damaged that need parents. We can be that."

He lifted her face to look in her eyes. "You would do that for me?"

"I'm not sharing you, don't ask me to. Or that I find someone else. Not happening." She told him fiercely.

****

His face softened. She rarely saw it but at times like these when his emotion was stronger than his logic they showed. "I would never do that, but I would share you if it made you happy."

"I couldn't bare it. How you could, I do not know. No. I am happy. It's us or nothing. Don't offer it again."

Sliding down and out her body he turned them both and laid her over him. Taking her face. "You don't have to sacrifice your life. I accept what I cannot do." He told her.

Crawling up his body she hovered over his face her body stretched to max laying over him. And for a split second she saw pain and sadness before it was gone. "How you listen to me husband. Did you make a lifetime commitment to me or just one until you moved on or I did?"

"I'm never moving on from you Helena. And hope you never leave me. But if they come for us, try to put us back in those crates, we are all decided. We'll go to war and die defending you." He kissed her hard. As tears hit her eyes. He was saying he'd have to leave her one way or another when they were found. He'd never mentioned it before, and she should have realised this. Their old owners might want them back.

Not fucking happening…..

She pulled back. "Did I make that a risk when I demanded you do the message?" He gave a nod. "You should have told me; I wouldn't have pushed."

"It's a calculated risk and we need help." He took her lips and brushed them.

She held his fast. "Then more war it will be. I married for life. Long or short, I'm never letting you go." She told him meaning it.
