Chapter 6: Lessons

Next month, the month of Payni is my wedding ceremony with Jahi, which I'm not entirely ready for it. Mother and the priestesses of Hathor that travelled all the way from Tentyra just to show me the "ways" of pleasing a man. I irritably sat through scroll after scroll of certain positions and gestures that I didn't believe were possible. The priestesses chatted shamelessly of what certain positions make them "quiver" as well did my mother which made me even more uncomfortable. The one thing that unsettled me more is when a priestess had demonstrated an action using a wooden phallus and her mouth, her tongue feverishly devouring and lips nibbling away at it. In my thought's why did this such thing matter when I possibly won't be just Jahi's single wife. "Chief Wife is what you will be." Mother stated while eagerly scanning an erotic depiction. "And you must give him as many sons as possible now pay attention Neferbennu! Here this is the position which I believe created you and your brother."

I also now have to be moved out of my chamber where I grew up all my life into the new wing where Jahi and I will stay. But since it isn't finished I will be placed with my father's concubines and near my mother. As they put it I will need to know all so that I can be praised as being a good wife. Getting back to my now old bed chamber which was now halfway emptied of my things I fell back on my unsheeted bed and sighed. Hemen flew from wherever he was perched since my harp was removed and pecked at my hair to get my attention.

"Were leaving this place Hemen," I muttered to him while stroking his downy chest. "I'm not sure I'm ready to leave this all behind. I don't even want to be married! Jahi is nice and all but no way I'm going to be someone's bedding choice for a night."

"But you still are the one that he will eventually come back to." Tehuti was laying on his stomach in the opposite direction of me.

I sat up, "Can you atleast make your presence known or act human?"

"What is it to be human? You people are reckless beings."

"And your kind is not?" I retorted. "Apparently we only act as the spitting images of the gods."

Tehuti's eyes wandered for a second before looking back at me. "You know you are right. But still you humans are odd and easily turned beings."

I rolled my eyes. "Why are you here? Leave me alone."

"I'm here to possibly help you Bennu." He said rolling onto his back and place his arms behind his head. I glared at the purple eyed god and he gazed back.

"How so?" I asked with an eyebrow raised. Tehuti slowly rose, his eyes not leaving mine. In a low sultry voice he leaned in close. "When the moon is high I will come to you, have everyone sent away even Merit and Padmavati." I opened my mouth to ask why but he cut me off before I could. "Don't ask me why just do it." And with that he disappeared.

After dinner I had Padmavati run me a bath. There's nothing more I would love is to soak in the warming waters of herbs. And nothing more relieving was to take off that heavy braided wig and have fingers run through and massage my scalp. My heart began to race for reasons unknown...or just trying to dismiss. Padmavati chuckled at my expression. "Mistress is nervous about being wedded isn't she? Or is it the thought of what you will have to do on the wedding night frightens you?" I gasped with a blush and that sent Padmavati into a laughing fit. "Oh mistress there is nothing to worry about. Think of it as a sacred dance, go with the motion of the passion. But like your scrolls we had a grand book called the Kama Sutra and that was shown to every blushing bride in order to fulfill the duties of being a wife but also having the wonderful pleasure of exploring one another as one." I didn't know what to say. Padmavati found my silence hilarious and finished drying and dressing me. When I returned to my chamber where what was left was my bed re-fitted with fresh linens and oil lamps I dismissed Padmavati and Merit for the rest of the night.

It was almost that time where the moon is at its highest, my stomach began twisting and fluttering feverishly. I was muted from all of today. The scrolls, the shameless priestesses speaking and demonstrating on how and what to do to please a man. Just the thought of my mouth on him like that unsettles me.

"Good everyone is gone." I heard Tehuti say while perching on my balcony, his wings spread and glittering in the moonlight. Hemen was perched beside him brushing his head against Tehuti's fingers. Tehuti whispered something to Hemen to where his head cocked to the side before soaring off. "Well now everyone is." His purple eyes glittered and within a blink of my eyes Tehuti was straddled above me. My heart had leapt into my stomach and in my first instinct was to strike him but he had caught my hand. He stroked my palm with his thumb and then placed it on his chest. His body was warm and his abs prodded my palms.

"What are you doing?" I managed to ask.

"I'm going to teach you what can please a god, rather than a man." My eyes widened and he shook his head. "I'm not going to touch you, just let you touch me." He grabbed for my other hand and placed it against his other pec. My skin crawled before reaching to my lower stomach and I let out a hesitant breath. Right now I had a hard time trying to catch my breath and he chuckled at me. "You're frozen Bennu." I opened my mouth to say something but he interrupted me. "Don't just keep them there, go ahead and explore me." After I wouldn't move my hands he took me by my wrists and my fingers dragged along every part of his chest. "Don't be afraid, think of it as something wonderfully new. Think of it as travelling to a new place like you always wanted to."

"Wait you heard me?" I questioned with a wince. He took my hands into his and once again rubbed them but then he started to clutch them. "Tehuti?"

"I've been here for awhile. Half of the year to be exact. Just flying around here until I passed out from being drunk and slave traders came along. To be honest I have been watching you and your whole family, reminds me of mine actually." His eyes turned into the lightest shade of purple. They were soft and gentle like. "I lied, my family is more fucked up than anything in this lifetime."

"I'll take your word for it." I chuckled pushing him away playfully. Tehuti' face suddenly froze and he glared at me, it unsettled me a bit. "Tehuti?"

"Bennu, forgive me." Moments later I could feel his tongue massaged mine, his arm wrapped around my body pulling me close to his him and the other arm lifting my leg over his waist. He was kissing me with such ferocity and his body felt like fire. I had the impulse to pull away till he pressed me down to the bed with his body overlaying mine, my legs parted and shaking. I could hear his breath quicken and my heart ring in my ears as he kept kissing me passionately, deeply, with long stroking brushes of his tongue against mine. Tehuti's mouth drifted down to neck, catching my flesh between his petal soft lips. I yelped as he held my neck tightly close to his wandering mouth while his tongue began tracing unknown words along my skin. With every teasing flicker of his tongue, my legs twitched, my flower quivered and watered. Everytime I tried to speak Tehuti found a way to make me yelp and whine. He was enjoying this too much. So was I. Something prodded at my inner thigh almost to the point it was brushing against my flower. I managed to reach under and grasp whatever it was. As soon as I did Tehuti detached his mouth from my neck and inhaled sharply. It was hard and a bit bumpy while being eerily warm in my palm. Tehuti's breath hitched again while my hand continued to investigate.

"Bennu." He mumbled my name softly. I looked upon him, his brow was covered in sweat and his eyes closed shut. Abruptly he got off top of me and sat at the side of the bed. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to force myself upon you like that. You're just.." He paused before running his hands along his face while letting out an exasperated sigh.

"It' fine.." I said sitting up pushing my sheath back down.

"I think this is enough for one night." His back was still facing me, his wings weren't showing this time so his back was fully bare. Also covered in mini scars here and there. I wonder if those are from the slaves traders or if these have been built up over time? Tehuti stood and silently padded over to the balcony before nodding a goodbye and then left.

I laid in my bed in the dark for hours reminiscing about Tehuti. How his strong body was nestled between my parted legs and his chest pressing against my breasts. I could still feel his lips against my skin, nibbling on my neck and collar. The slippery sensation of his tongue massaging mine. I just had my first kiss. Not by Jahi, who I'm to marry but by an exiled god.

My first kiss was from a god!

For the next couple of days I have not seen Tehuti. He wasn't in the garden, nor the kitchen flirting with the servant girls. I walked the whole palace searching for him until I stopped and wondered why was I? Why did I want to eagerly find him or see him? I did actually like the sensations he was giving me. Its almost like I'm craving for him. His touch, his taste, his earthy smell. I was thinking about all of what happened last night while Jahi was discussing future matters with father and some viziers in the Per Medjet. I happened to walk in on them and Jahi insisted on me staying. "You will be my Chief Wife soon, why not start getting used to one another's company." He smiled while extending his hand out to me to take. My thoughts of Tehuti had slipped away once Jahi had placed his hand over mine stopping me from continuing to fumble with my dress and whispered to me, "Bennu, are you all right?" I nodded absentmindedly still looking down at my white pleated dress. Jahi took my hand and brought it to his lips and gently kissed it. I gave him a faint smile before turning my attention out the window. The Per Medjet was overlooking the stables. I watched Besa roll back and forth in the sand like a silly foal. I chuckled to myself until Besa rolled back on to his hooves and started trotting away with a figure running after him. Besa galloped around the person while trying to nip at the person's hair. Taking a closer look I realized those were braids. Only one person I know that wears his braids in a tribal manner.

I managed to slip away from Jahi and the others. I made it to the stables to find that Besa was already back in the stalls. I whistled to him and like usual he would kick at the door until I approached him. He nuzzled me with his large black muzzle and started searching my dress for sugar or anything a treat. "I'm sorry Besa I have nothing with me today. Tomorrow I will have something for you." I said smiling while stroking his muzzle.

"Sorry that I've been avoiding you." I heard Tehuti say beside me. "I had to in order to..control myself around you."

"What do you mean by that?" I questioned without looking at him.

"I'm a god remember, our libido charges are higher than humans," He paused before looking around and pulled me into Besa's stall. He continued in a low voice, "Like in those Grecian stories of how the gods mated with humans and lusted for them so strongly, it's a drive that we cannot handle ourselves." I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest. "I'm serious Bennu! If I hadn't stopped…" His words trailed off and he took a deep sigh.

"What? You would've raped me!"

"When you put it like that it seems menacing but not exactly. Its just I'm not the one that can deflower you…"

"You were planning to.."

"No! That wasn't my intention at first."

"At first!" I snapped. Tehuti raised his hands in defeat.

"Keep your voice down!" he said through gritted teeth. "I meant...alright yes. I thought you were going to be some spoiled palace brat that would lie on her back for just some attention."

"What!" I screamed. His hand slapped over my mouth and shushed me.

"Bennu! Please, someone will hear! This isn't the most secluded spot here." It wasn't, a servant was always working in the stables or close by. "I don't want us to cause a scandal just yet," he chuckled and I curled my lip up in general disgust at him which caused him to laugh. "I'll meet you back in your room again tonight. Make sure you send everyone away." I silently nodded in agreement. He waved me goodbye before exiting the stables. I was still lost in train of thought while I rode Besa through the track. Almost to the point where I almost fell off. I swear on his father I will kill him if he placed a spell on me to feel this way.

I waited patiently for him, almost eagerly I waited for him to show. Once again everyone was away and tonight is also my last night here. Tomorrow I would be move the harem close to mother and my other family. A silhouette had perched on my balcony railing before leaping to his feet and wings disappeared behind his back. I stood from my bed while Tehuti slowly padded over to me. He stood in front of me for a moment gazing at me with those beautiful deep amethyst eyes. His hands rose to my waist, his fingertips brushing along my thighs before settling them on my lower back. He brought his lips close to mine before lightly brushing them then pressing them to mine. At first he began slowly before furiously darting his tongue around mine. I gripped his shoulders to push him back but he pulled me closer to him, constricting me in his grasp. His lips left mine to kiss my cheek and down to my throat. He ferociously began gnawing at my neck and licking around my neck, his breath was a quickened pitch as if he was gasping for air. "I missed your embrace so much Bennu," he said between kisses. "I had to stay away."

"You said that earlier." I managed to speak, I was swept up by the fluttering emotions of his lips against my skin once again. I have to admit I did miss and crave this feeling again. Tehuti's hands roamed my thighs once more, tugging at my dress. "Tehuti wait!" He paused for a minute before apologizing once more.

"I meant what I meant that our drive is almost to uncontrollable." I raised my brow at him and he sighed pulling away from me.

"If I let you continue this lesson, will you behave yourself?"

"I'll try…" then he mumbled something under his breath.

"What?"

"Nothing." he shook his head then raised a brow and smirked. I took a step back.

"What?"

"Bennu have you ever seen a naked man before?" He questioned. I could feel my cheeks instantly burn. The only naked male body that I have seen was father's whenever I foolishly walked in on his escapades and my brothers when they feel the need to race naked to the Nile pools in the West atrium. But I never stare long enough to see what is going on but I do know very well we have different appendages.

"I have," I answered back sheepishly. "Never wanted to but it just happens when half of your brothers are immature and your father is practically a harlot." I said with a shrug. "And yes I'm aware that you males have an extra appendage." I flickered my eyes downward to his waist. Tehuti chuckled looking down almost trying to avoid my gaze.

"I was hoping you didn't notice that." he grinned with his eyes low.

"Well, I did. It was rather annoying to have something abnormally warm rubbing against your thigh."

"Well I actually do, it's attached to me I have no choice but to live with it, every man does. Most of the time we honestly don't realize it's there."

I crossed my arms over my chest, "Unless you're about to use it right?" I retorted back mockingly. Tehuti opened his mouth to protest but closed it.

"Hmm, sounds about right." he grinned. I threw my hands up and rolled my eyes.

"Males."

"Bennu," Tehuti cooed my name while taking my arm and bringing me close back to him. His arm wrapped around my waist and he lifted my chin to look at him. "Why are you always denying your instincts?"

"Instincts?" I yanked my chin from his hand but his arm was still constricted around me.

"Yes, you're denying your womanly tendencies and that offends me a bit." he pouted his lower lip out. I winced at him.

"That doesn't affect me."

"Bennu, love me," Tehuti moaned nuzzling my neck. "I'll love you."

"I'm pretty sure my father said the same thing to my mother and look how many siblings I have by different women."

"But he's pharaoh so that will happen." he said kissing my shoulder.

"And you're a god which is worse." I shrugged him away and out of his arms. I walked over to the balcony and leaned on the railing. I swear I'll miss this view, the sun directly rose right in front of me. I'll miss that warm and welcoming feeling, I doubt the sun even touches the harem like it does here.

"I understand, you still don't want to be tied down." He said coming up beside me and leaning his back on the rail. "Like you said before, you want to see the world but I can tell you now Bennu that will not happen if you become Queen."

"Please do not remind me…" I groaned.

"But you know what, I can take you to places that aren't from this world." I lifted my head and looked to him. A sly grin was plastered over his face and one eyebrow raised. "Peaked your interest?"

"Are you talking about taking me to your home?"

"I am but also not exactly."

"So I assume you're banished from there."

"Yes I am in current exile but thanks to a good friend of mine, she lets me through the portal once and awhile so I could regain my strength. I can only stay in this world for a medium amount of time before I become mundane," His wings unfolded from his back and flexed. He grabbed ahold of his left wing and showed me the two spots where I had plucked his feathers from. There were two large dots encrusted with dried blood. "I even tried to grow them back but I lost the power to heal my wings. This place is taking a toll on me Bennu, I miss my home, I miss my mother and I can't even see if she's doing fine! I mean I can by looking at the necklace around your neck." I looked at the silver and purple bellied moon, it was a smooth light lavender. "She's sleeping at the moment from what I can sense."

"Does it change color whenever her mood changes?" I asked.

"Yes, sometimes. But now since you're wearing it, it reflects your emotions mostly. Right now you're calm and content. Did I do that?" he said teasingly. I shrugged and looked up at the moon.

"Maybe." The next thing I knew Tehuti once again had his arms constricted around me with his face buried in my neck.

"So you do love me Bennu." He mumbled kissing my neck.

"And you lust for me."

"Bennu, I can't have you for myself at the moment. But even if I could, who would know of us?" He said between kisses on my collar. He's somewhat right, who would know of us. No one doesn't now, not even Akhom which I'm surprised he has yet to burst into my room. "And the reason why your childish brother has yet to burst into your room, interrupting my enjoyment is because his new amusement is keeping him rather occupied."

"Can you not read my thoughts!" I tried swatting at him but he continued to have a tight grip on me. He was quiet for a long time before eventually letting me go and sat cross legged beside me. I gave him a quizzical look before he pulled me down beside him and lifted my face towards the moon.

"Enjoy the moonlight while it lasts, the harem doesn't get a view like this." He said leaning back on his elbows. I grimaced and watched the moon along with Tehuti for awhile until he eventually fell asleep with his arms wrapped around my waist and his head resting on my thigh. When I tried to move he would hug me tighter and mumble something before going back to sleep. "Oh what am I to do with you?" I mumbled stroking his loose braids.
