Love and Desire

Mount Olympus

"Hmmm...?" Hera, Queen of the Gods, Goddess of marriage and birth, raised her eye brow, looking down at the scrying pool.

"Hera?"

"Yes, Eros?"

Eros, the God of Love and Desire.

"Something has had your attention for the passed few months. What has happened?"

"Mortals...half breeds...creatures from all over beyond the stars...they just don't understand."

"What do you mean?"

"You and I know all too well the love and unity of two beings is sacred. This gift we have, has not been earned fully just yet. We will see if they can successfully go through this challenge or will it break them."

Eros frowned and looked into the scrying pool. He then looked at Hera and nodded.

"I see."


Kal and Diana had a great weekend together and for the next week, if they weren't texting each other all day, they would talk on the phone all night.

The week after, Clark traveled to Japan for a National Press unveiling and Diana was having the construction of the academy start.


Diana's Condominium

"Hello?"

"Good Afternoon, Diana."

"Afternoon, Hessia."

"I was calling to remind you about your appointment you have in about an hour."

"Oh, right! Yes, I'll be there. Sorry for not calling yesterday. Been so busy these last couple of days."

"No worries. I understand."

"Kal is on a business trip. Won't be there with me this time. I'll have to tell him the results later."

"Ok. Well I will see you in a bit."

"Ok."

As Diana hung up she sighed feeling a rush of nervousness.

"Was that Hessia?"

Diana jumped slightly. "Mother...I...how long were you standing there?"

"Long enough," she responsed with her arms folded.

Diana sighed. "Come with me to Hessia's office."


Hessia's Office

"I'm sorry, Diana."

Diana took a deep breath. This process..." she paused and nodded. "I understand that this process is long. But given that Kal and I are doing this naturally...I thought-"

"I know. But both of you are still very healthy. It's just the timing."

"Timing...Yes." Diana dropped her head and a single tear ran down her face. "A lot of time has passed. Maybe too much."

"Hessia, could we have a moment alone, please?"

Hessia nodded and left out of her office closing the door.

"Diana, look at me."

Diana still held her head down.

"Diana."

She reluctantly looked up at Hippolyta, tears welled up in her eyes and she was trying so hard to hold them back.

"I knew there was something you were keeping from me. Why didn't you tell me?"

"This is why. We didn't want to get ahead of ourselves but I keep doing it anyway. I get so excited just to be let down again."

"Tell me the whole truth. What is going on between you and Kal-El?"

"We made an agreement to have a child together and co-parent."

"Co-parent?"

"Raise the child together without being a couple."

Hippolyta frowned. "That is unacceptable."

"Not for us. It's better for us that way."

"Oh and who said as such?"

Diana sighed. "I asked Kal to be a donor for a child that I could raise on my own. He wanted a child too and wasn't going to let me raise the child alone. But I told him he was free to be with someone else."

"I raised you better than that and I know this is not how you want to bring a child into this world. Just as you, I wanted a child of my own. I prayed to the Gods every night and then Zeus-"

"Kal and I aren't having an affair. We won't lie to our child about the birth."

"No, I want better for you and you have that, Diana."

"This is the second time Hessia has said it was unsuccessful."

"That does not matter. Try thousands of years of believing I was a barren woman."

"I'm sorry, Mother."

Hippolyta embraced her. "I understand your frustration, my dear. The Gods will answer your prayer just as they have done mine."

Later...

Diana was laying in her bed staring at the photos she and Kal took at the mall when her cell phone started ringing. Her heart dropped seeing it was Kal.

"Hey, Kal."

"Hey, Di. I just got your text."

"I know you are busy."

"But that still doesn't stop me from missing you. Couldn't wait to get the chance to call you."

"I miss you, too."

"What's wrong?" he asked hearing a bit of sadness in her voice.

"I went to Hessia's office today."

"Oh, Di, I'm sorry. I should've been there."

"No, no, it's fine. Mother went with me."

"Hippolyta knows now?"

"Yes."

"How did she take it?"

"She's supportive."

Kal sighed relieved. "Whew. Well I'm glad for that but surprised."

Diana giggled softly. "Yes, me, too."

"Hey, I know we are anticipating this. But don't worry, okay? We will just keep trying."

"I know."

"I'll be home in about 4 more days."

"I can't wait to see you."

"And I can't wait to see you either."


The next day: Afternoon

Diana leaned over the railing of Mera's patio deck, looking out into the ocean.

"This is truly one of the most beautiful views."

"Yeah I could sit here all day watching it," Mera said handing her a cup of iced tea. "So how is it going with Clark?"

"He is everything and more. I love spending time with him."

"But?"

Diana sighed. "Two attempts to get pregnant and both times weren't successful. Being with him intimately though, I can't stop the feeling I get thinking about it."

"The sex is damn good," Mera shrugged. "No complaining there."

"Not at all," Diana couldn't help but giggle. "But I don't want this to turn into just that."

"You aren't thinking about giving up, are you?"

"I don't know...partly."

"Don't you dare, Diana. Not only will you be breaking your own heart but Clark's too."

"You know I don't want that. But I want to be fair, Mera. If I can't have a child, Kal should move on to be happy. Have a chance for a child with someone else. That's what I want for him."

Mera shook her head in disbelief. "That is way easier said than done, Princess."


Days later...Metropolis, Clark's Apartment

Kal had arrived back home in the late hour of around 11 p.m. He texted Diana about 30 minutes earlier but hadn't heard back yet.

Given how Diana sounded on the phone, he knew she was sadden by the pregnancy news for the second time. It surprised him really and he didn't understand it himself why these first two times hadn't been successful. But he wasn't going to give up with Diana. He would make love to her a billion times over, child or no child, showing her how much he so deeply cared for her and wanted to be with her.

He got undressed and turned on the shower. Before he could get in, there was a knock on the front door. He smirked hearing a familiar heartbeat and quickly went to the door wrapping a towel around his waist.

Kal opened the door with a charming smile. "Hey, Di."

"I got your text. Have I came at a bad time?"

"Nope, your timing is perfect."

He took her hand pulling her in, closing and locking the door.

Kal guided her to the bathroom with the shower still running. He smiled undressing her and let his towel drop.

Diana honestly couldn't say a word but the enjoyable expression on her face and how fast her heart was racing let Kal know she didn't mind him taking charge at all.

Stepping in, Kal wrapped his arms around her. Diana planted a full kiss on his tasty lips, but didn't let him deepen it. Her hands ran over his back while she pulled her body off his for her eyes to peer down and check out his bare body. Dripping wet with his dark hair plastered to his forehead and water dripping down from his chin, his shoulders, down his chest, down his abs, his hips, and down to his apparent well endowed arousal.

Diana forced herself to bring her gaze back up.

"My Gods, he is so tantalizing," she thought to herself.

She grinned at the feel of his firm body covering her delicate one again. Her hands rubbed up down his back roughly, wanting to be as close to him as possible. Kal kissed her hard, forcing her mouth open and thrusting his tongue deep inside almost immediately. Diana moaned noisily and enthusiastically, half surprised by his vehement urgency.

When they pulled back, Diana bit her bottom lip and Kal smirked before he tilted down and began kissing her neck while his hands slide down her warm body, causing her to sigh, "Kal…"

His hands rested on her hips, gripping her strongly as he sucked on her neck uncontrollably, making her groan stridently. His hands made their way up to her beautiful, voluptuous breasts, lovingly fondling them. His mouth then landed on hers again and their kissing became increasingly passionate. He thumbed her firm nipples over and over, causing her to break the kiss and gasp piercingly. He watched her reactions while continuing his erotic torture, greatly enjoying it.

Kal then slipped his hands down her thighs. As he held her gaze, Diana's eyes softened and Kal felt her relax even more. He moved in, kissing her softly and tenderly like a woman like her wanted to be kissed, and Diana's arms wrapped around his neck, bringing her breasts against his chest. Kal picked her up and pressed her back against the wall so that she was just an inch or so higher than he was, her hips at the perfect level against him.

Her knees balanced against his hips and Kal's hands were on her hips as he looked up into her eyes. He adjusted himself so he was right in line with her hot center, and pressed against her entrance, waiting for the right time to enter her.

Diana rested her forehead against Kal's, both of them were looking down, looking at where their bodies would soon be joined. Very slowly, Kal pushed in. Diana gasped and moaned as her entrance accepted the intrusion. As Kal kept pushing deeper, Diana was clenching around him with incredible pressure.

Kal adjusted her in his arms as the hot water and steam and fog surrounded them, making their bodies slick and more easily accepting of each other. Diana watched more and more of his pleasurable length enter her. Her tight cavern swallowed him, engulfed him, and readily took in more of him as he pushed and pushed. They let out a sigh together.

Kal shifted a little, rebalancing his weight on his feet, and Diana groaned when she felt him move inside of her. He filled up every last bit of space inside her, feeling so hot, tight and amazing.

They grin sexily at each other before his lips landed on hers in a deep kiss as he proceeded moving in and out of her. His thrusts were slow and gentle at first but gradually become faster and deeper while their kissing gained intensity. They soon broke the kiss breathlessly, needing oxygen before they began panting and groaning uncontrollably.

Diana started moving her hips with his, making their union more complete with the formation of their sacred, erotic rhythm.

Kal kissed her neck as they moved together much faster. He then thrust into her much harder, making her throw her head back, groaning and exclaiming loudly, "Gods, Kal!"

Diana's head fell forward into Kal's neck, which she soon kissed and licked sensually before breathing heavily. Her hot breath turned him on even more, causing him to pump even faster. She held onto him tighter than ever before lifting her head up quickly, crying out his name and dug her nails deeply into his shoulders.

They both loved the way their lovemaking felt and loved they way their names were coming from each other's lips. Kal moaned into her neck before pulling up to look into her eyes and see just how pleasurable this was for her. Her reactions to their lovemaking was so beautiful to him. He was so happy that he was the one who gets to be with her this way.

Kal lifted her higher, pushing her a couple inches up the wall, and then put his hands back at her hips. Diana marveled at his strength, and the increase in the angle had him rubbing against all of her right spots. She couldn't think about anything at that moment even if her life depended on it. The friction was incredible.

Kal grunted as the water cascaded over both of them. He pulled out a little, then slammed back in as hard and fast as he could. Diana yelped, but his hands were holding her firm and he was doing it again, pulling out of her before ramming back in.

He buried his face in her heaving breasts. He nipped at them, biting gently at the nipples and running his tongue over the peaks and gentle hills of the softest part of her lush body.

They both start panting over and over as they get closer and closer to the pinnacle of their lovemaking and held onto each other more forcefully.

Diana panted his name twice and locked eyes with his. They keep panting and groaning, kept moving swiftly. And soon, Diana's orgasm hits her oh so hard, bringing her to sensational satisfaction. She screamed as her wetness flows around him.

She nearly sobbed from the searing waves of pleasure that washed through her and wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, holding his face against her breasts.

Kal still continued to thrust in and out of her inviting body. He groaned, feeling himself close. He slammed into her one last time before that was it for him and he exploded like a volcano gushing into her. His face buried in her breasts and his hips continued to move forward as he came, coating her insides, and Diana took it all. She came again a minute or two after he did, holding on to him tighter and screamed his name again.

Kal stood against Diana for a long moment, holding her in his arms, his hands now cupping her bottom, his forehead resting against the tops of her breasts, the water gushing down over both of them, and he still buried to the hilt inside her warm, slick paradise.

They breathe erratically as they held onto each other loosely. A few moments later, Kal pulled out of her and set her down, and they remained silent as their bodies calmed down. Diana pushed her wet hair out of her face, her breasts heaving with every panted breath.

Once their breathing returned to normal, Kal stepped away from her, reached to turn off the cold water, and pulled the shower curtain open for them to step out. After drying each other off, they wrap towels around themselves and Kal grabbed a small towel, proceeding in drying Diana's hair, massaging her head as he does so, causing her to moan happily. Once finished, he threw their towels aside, leaving them now both completely naked again. He turned Diana around, pulling her close, holding her lovingly and kissing her deeply.

Pulling away just a bit, Kal ran a hand over a side of her face. Diana wrapped her arms around him, hugging him.

Kal picked her up carrying her to his bed, laying her down gently then laying beside her. They held each other, not saying a word. The silence was beautiful and all that mattered was this moment of having each other.

And for now...well that was just what it was...for now.
