Chapter 13

Orsu

Julie and I walked into the cavern hand in hand. My chest filled with pride and joy as everyone took in the sight of us. Julie had claimed me as hers and was willing to announce our bond in front of the entire dekes.

"What do we have here?" Kayla asked as she looked at our joined hands.

Julie looked up at me and smiled. "Nothing much, just hanging out with my mate."

All the hu-man females squealed and rushed toward us. Julie was quickly engulfed in a group hug and a chorus of congratulations.

Drovo and Axon clapped me on the shoulder. Their teary eyes and wide smiles told me all I needed to know about the joy they had for me.

"The goddess has blessed you, my friend." Tarak chimed in. "A mate is the greatest treasure a male could hope for."

I caught Drovo sending Kayla longing glances, as if he were imaging what it would be like to be mated as well.

Kayla glanced his way briefly but quickly looked away.

Everyone seemed to be happy about our news–everyone except Rhaz, of course. He wore his usual frown and left the cavern. His anger I could understand, but this new avoidance he had of the hu-man females was baffling to me. Did he not want a mate as well?

"Do not worry about dinner tonight," Lumod clapped my shoulder. "I will prepare the evening meal."

"I appreciate that my friend, but nothing brings me more joy than to cook beside my mate."

I looked down at Julie for confirmation and she squeezed my hand in response.

My mate and I got to work preparing the final meal of the day. I never thought I could find such joy in making food. Every time our shoulders brushed or our hands touched we would look at each other and smile.

I dabbed Julie's nose with flour and she laughed when she attempted to do the same to me, but could only reach my chin. I would have to take care with Julie during our matings. She was tiny compared to me. But all the same, I looked forward to tonight and the possibilities it held.

Once the meal was finished, Lumod shooed us away so we could retire to our bed cave while he washed the dishes.

Julie and I exchanged a glance and her cheeks turned that beautiful red they tended to do when I flirted with her.

"Should we head to the furs, my mate?" I purred in her ear.

"I'd like that." Her words came out breathy, making my cock to stir.

Once we were out of the main cavern I lifted Julie over my shoulder and ran to our room. She yelped but soon her surprise turned to giggles.

I pulled back the curtain to our private cave then put it back over the entrance after setting Julie down.

When I turned back turned around I was surprised to see Julie already sitting down on the furs with a seductive gleam in her eyes. Her earlier shyness was now gone. My shaft grew ever stiffer at the sight of her on my furs. On our furs.

"I…" Julie trailed off, her anxiety breaking through once again, showing in the tight way she held her shoulders.

"I've only had sex a few times, which I know is more than you, but even still, I'm not exactly skilled at this." She let her words hang in the air, hoping I would grasp their meaning.

I sat down beside her and turned her so her back was facing me. Then I got to work rubbing her shoulders as I'd longed to do since our first night apart.

"I've waited for what feels like a lifetime to rub these knots out of your shoulders."

Julie relaxed and let out a contented sigh. "That feels really nice."

"Tell me your worries, my mate. I know there are more that you haven't yet spoken."

"I–" she paused, finding the right words to say. "I've been told I'm too stiff during sex, and that I make my partner feel like I'm not enjoying myself."

"Were you?" I asked softly as I continued to rub her shoulders.

"Not really," she admitted. "The first time a human female has sex it's usually a little painful, and then the second time I had sex it felt too rushed. I didn't have a chance to really settle into the moment and enjoy myself. And although I had wanted it, it felt like the sex was happening to me instead of with me. He found his release so fast that I had barely started to enjoy the sensations before he was done."

"Did he not pleasure you first, or at least after he had found his own release?" I held my breath as I waited for her answer. I didn't mind the thought of Julie being with another, but I could not bear the thought of her being treated as anything other than the precious gift that she was.

"No," she whispered as if she were ashamed. It was the male she had been with that should be ashamed, not Julie. How could he go to lay with her without seeing to her pleasure first?

I took a steadying breath before I answered. "We will go slow. We will take our time and you will be as relaxed as a sleeping cub in their mother's den. We will go at your pace and I will follow your lead. That is, after I've brought you to completion with my tongue at least once."

Julie turned around and looked up at me with shiny eyes. "Thank you, Orsu. I don't think I've trusted anyone as much as I trust you."

A tear streamed down her face and I brushed it away with my thumb. "You don't need to thank me. I am your mate. It is my joy to bring you pleasure, to take care of your needs and to see to your happiness. Besides, a happy female makes for a good chef." I teased.

Julie smiled at my joke and settled herself onto my lap before she pulled me in for an embrace.

"I want to be yours Orsu in every way possible." Julie confessed as she sat back and pulled off her shirt. I was rewarded with the sight of her small but beautiful breasts. I loved the sight of her. Every part of her was perfect from the hair on her head to the toes on her feet; my mate was undeniably beautiful.

I pulled off my shirt as well before pulling my mate back to my chest and kissing her with all the passion that had been stored within me from the moment we met. I showed her with my lips how much she meant to me, how much I wanted her.

The ache in my chest had turned to one of desire and a deep need to be joined with my mate burned through me.

I laid Julie on the bed and spread her legs wide so I could feast on her essence. She tasted like a sweet flower which made hope grow in my chest that she might be my luminescence one day. Growing up, the elders spoke of how their luminescence mates tasted of sweet flowers found on the world from which we came from long ago, a flower that none of us had seen or smelled, but yet it continued on in our dekes as a hopeful sign that we'd found our mate.

I slowly descended on Julie, starting first at her ankle and making my way up her leg until I was finally rewarded with her glistening cunt.

"You're so beautiful, my mate," I reassured her before her worries could take over her thoughts again.

I moaned loudly as I tasted her for the second time this day. "And you taste so good."

I wasted no more time with comments. She would discover how much I adored her body through my actions soon enough.

I licked her from the bottom of her slit to the top where her sensitive nub hid behind her curls. I pushed them aside and covered her nub with my mouth and began to suck.

"Ah!" Julie cried out and her hips lifted off the furs.

Good, I had discovered a new technique to please my mate, and I hoped to discover many more over the next coming days.

I continued to suck and lick her sensitive flesh while also inserting a finger into her channel. I was a large male and I wanted to prepare my small mate for my cock as much as I possibly could.

I inserted a second finger and began a slow thrusting motion. As I did, I felt a rough patch of skin. Julie let out a garbled noise and I knew I had found another pleasure spot.

I continued to work her cunt with both my mouth and my fingers before I added one more digit and pumped into her as I wished to do with my cock.

Julie was trembling now and gasping for air. I brought my free hand up to her breast and tweaked her nipple.

"Shit, shit, shit!" Julie cried out and I felt her channel spasm around my fingers with such force that I nearly came at the thought of her squeezing my cock in the same way.

Once the spasms stopped Julie pushed me away.

"Sensitive," she breathed.

I nodded and laid down next to my mate and ran my fingers through her dark hair until her breathing evened out.

She placed a hand over her heart and smiled up at me. She cupped my cheek with her other hand and lifted her head to kiss me again. Our kiss started out slow but quickly became passionate as I wrapped her in my arms holding her as tightly as I held my dream to find a mate.

Julie pulled away and looked at me with hunger in her eyes.

"Do you wish for me to pleasure you again?" I questioned, full of eager anticipation. I would provide whatever pleasure Julie desired.

To my disappointment she shook her head.

"I want us both to be pleasured. I want you inside me. I want… my mate."

My heart nearly leapt out of my chest. For many seasons I had lost all hope of ever hearing those words come from a female"s lips, and now, here before me, lay my mate who wished to be joined with me in the furs.

I had to remind myself that we were still going slow. Julie would need time to relax into our mating.

I sat up on the furs and placed my back against the wall and beckoned Julie to come to me.

"I am large and you are small. I do not wish to hurt you, and I fear if I am on top of you, I'll rut you like a beast. For our first mating you will lower yourself onto me. You will only take as much of me as is comfortable for you. You, my brave mate, will take the lead."

Julie looked apprehensive at first, but then she lifted her chin and gave me a resolute nod. "Okay."

It was like living in a dream as I watched my beautiful mate straddle my cock. Julie placed her hands on my shoulders as she held herself above my erect shaft.

"Take your time, my kira-si. We have a lifetime of matings ahead of us." I encouraged her.

Julie smiled and took me by surprise with a deep, passionate kiss. Her tongue explored mine and I was nearly lost in the moment when I felt her wet folds graze the head of my cock.

I broke the kiss with a hiss and prayed to the goddess for the strength to last more than one thrust for this first mating. That first brush of Julie's cunt against my cock had nearly made me come.

"I think I'm ready now," she whispered.

I nodded my head and braced myself as she held my shaft with one hand, and lowered herself onto my cockhead. She stopped there, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

I murmured encouraging words to her as I caressed her back with slow and gentle touches.

Julie took in another deep breath, then breathed out as she lowered herself the rest of the way onto my thick shaft.

The feeling of her tight heat surrounding me was like nothing I'd experienced before. It was incredible–she was incredible.

"Look at you, my mate. You take my cock so well," I said through gritted teeth. I had meant to sound encouraging, but instead I sounded pained.

"Are you okay? You're sweating." Julie remarked with concern in her eyes and wiped my brow with the blanket.

"I'm alright." I breathed. That was a lie. I was so close to coming that I feared one movement of her hips would send me over the edge.

"What about you? Are you comfortable?" I checked in with her.

Julie smiled. "Your efforts to prepare me paid off. I feel filled to the brim, but in a good way."

I breathed a sigh of relief at that.

"Good."

Julie bit her bottom lip as she looked down at our joined bodies and slowly moved her hips.

A grunt escaped my lips and my hands flew to the furs. I gripped them so hard I thought I might tear them in half.

Julie moved her hips again and groaned with pleasure. Her tight cunt slid ever so slightly up and down my shaft, sending waves of pleasure radiating throughout my entire body.

She circled her hips a third time and my untried cock could take no more. I held tightly to my mate as I grunted my release. My spine stiffened and I saw stars as my seed spilled out of me into my mate's waiting cunt.

"Oh," Julie said with surprise, and I hoped I hadn't embarrassed myself by coming so quickly. A Sirret's cock can harden shortly after coming, so thankfully our mating would not end here.

"I'm so sorry, my mate. Your body is so incredible that I spilled my seed early," I looked away in shame.

Julie's small finger lifted my chin so I'd meet her gaze.

"I've never felt so sexy in my life, Orsu." She gave me a warm smile followed by a tender kiss.

"We can continue this when you get hard again," she said with an encouraging smile.

"Then why don't you turn around and settle yourself back down on me again?" I suggested. "Because I am already hard again and I wish to pleasure your clit with my fingers as you ride my cock."
