"Diana, why are we being commanded to celebrate? Surely we can't do that without restoring your mother, and we haven't figured out how to do that yet."

"Shayera, love, we cannot ignore the command of Hera. We have to trust." Diana sighed.

"It doesn't seem fit to throw a party without your mother. Diana, she is still recovering. We cannot drag her out of bed for this. I don't understand."

"Shayera, Hera, my patron goddess has commanded it. We will respect that. The Amazon nation will celebrate tonight. Without my mother."

"Did Hera say anything else?"

"No." Diana bit her lip. She hated lying to Shayera, but really, what would she tell her?

"Hey, what's wrong?"

Diana looked into Shayera's eyes. "You know that I love you right?"

"Of course. You tell me all the time." Shayera smiled naughtily. "You show me all the time too."

Diana chuckled. "Yes, sweetheart. You seem to be my weak spot."

Shayera closed the distance between them. "What is this all about? You can tell me. I can tell something is bothering you."

"Shayera, I feel that I can tell you everything. But, I do not have an answer for you."

"I don't understand."

"Shayera, love, leave it be for now. Let's do what is being requested of us. Besides, Huntress and Canary will relish the idea of partying. Speaking of which, feel free to tell your best friends to behave please. There are no bars here, but I would like to not have to worry about Dinah and Helena tonight. No disrespect should be shown to Hera."

"Ok, Diana. I will tell them to lay low."

Diana sighed. "Thank you."

Shayera touched Diana's face, and her lascivious grin returned. "You know I am still queen right?"

"You constantly remind me."

"As such, I was serious about the consort thing."

Diana snorted. "Is that so?"

Shayera lowered her hands to Diana's shoulders and stroked them lightly. "Mmm…a queen has certain needs."

"Are you commanding me to..."

"Perhaps. Although I should hardly have to command you. "

"Shayera, an Amazon queen does not demand sex from other Amazons."

"Well, times change Diana. Perhaps no other queen considered it. I have had very little time to figure out the rules here. So, I am choosing to ignore your argument, as is my right as your queen. Now, Diana, I am commanding you to…"

Diana didn't let her finish the thought. She pressed her lips to Shayera's, kissing her slowly. Diana's hands massaged the redhead's hips, and pulled them forward pressing them into her own. Shayera melted into the caress and opened her mouth wider so Diana could deepen the scintillating kiss she was giving. There was no battle for dominance because Shayera conceded the point immediately. She would let Diana do whatever she wanted to do to her body.

Diana moved her lips away from Shayera's and began placing small kisses on her neck. Shayera threw her head back in submission to the attention being paid to her. And while Diana's hands never moved away from her hips, Shayera could feel her skirt being slowly pulled up into Diana's fingers. Once she had finished drawing the cloth up into her hands, Diana let it rest on her wrists while she continued to massage the now exposed hips. Her lips moved from each side of the neck, to Shayera's earlobes and then back down to her collarbone. With great ease Diana moved her hands around to Shayera's backside, continuing the gentle rubbing motion, and lifting the redhead's legs and wrapping them around her. She kissed Shayera's lips again, teasing the other woman with small strokes of her tongue.

Only at the moment when Shayera needed to draw a breath did she pull her lips away, and a guttural moan was heard coming from her in response to Diana's caresses. Diana slowly moved over to the bed and laid Shayera on her back.

"My love for you…insatiable." Diana whispered softly.

She drew her hands up to the bra that Shayera wore. Using only her fingertips she followed the outline across the swell of her lover's breasts, and then across the fabric.

"Diana…" Shayera moaned.

Diana grabbed the fabric in the middle of the lingerie and with ease snapped the fabric in half in the front. Her palms rubbed from the collarbone, down to the vee of Shayera's chest and then outwards, pushing the fabric away. She placed light kisses on the swells and turned her attention to one of the exposed nipples. Her tongue traced small circles, and she watched as the nipple responded, instantly hardening. With her hand she squeezed the other breast gently and rubbed her thumb across it. She began kissing a trail down Shayera's stomach and over her pelvis. Her hands moved lower and caressed the redhead's calves, up her thighs and back to her hips. Diana slid her fingers underneath the sides of Shayera's panties, and slowly slid them down. She kissed Shayera's inner knees and began to work her way up each leg, stopping just short of Shayera's most urgent need.

"Diana, you are teasing me, " Shayera breathily whispered.

"No Shayera," came the light response, "I am enjoying you."

Shayera laid her head back, and every kiss that brought Diana closer to her center caused Shayera's hips to move up off the bed a little.

"There are no words, my love, to express…" Diana started.

"Just show me then."

Diana smiled and lowered her head in between Shayera's legs. The first stroke of the tongue barely brushed the fully aroused clit. Shayera's hips shot up again, seeking the next touch. Slowly Diana tongue responded to Shayera's non-verbal request. She took her lovers clit into her mouth and sucked lightly as her tongue continued to lavish with careful attention. Shayera's hands clinched the sheets up into her fists, as her body continued to respond to the slow anguish of its need to climax.

"Diana, please," she moaned.

Diana quickened the pace of her stroking tongue, and Shayera's hips bucked once again. Diana moved her arms underneath the woman's legs slid her hands over Shayera's pelvis, drawing her closer. Within moments, Shayera cried out, as the orgasm ripped through her body. She shuddered a few times, and could feel her legs begin to shake. Diana kissed her inner thighs a few times, but then went right back to where she had been mere moments before. It only took a few seconds for Shayera to climax again. Once her body began to calm, Shayera's legs fell to the side as she was unable to hold them up any longer. Diana smiled and began kissing her way back up to Shayera's lips.

"Diana, that…that was amazing."

Diana smiled and held her lover for a few moments. When Shayera tried to roll over and began kissing Diana's neck, she was gently pushed back.

"What's wrong? I want to touch you."

"I know. But I want this to be about you. How special you are to me. I needed to touch you so badly."

Shayera smiled. "Okay. Whatever you need. I won't complain."

Diana chuckled. "Are you finished? Do you need…"

"No more. Just hold me if you won't let me touch you."

Diana cradled Shayera into her arms, and they laid there just holding onto each other.

A/N: It was always my intention of doing a chapter like this. But love scenes are very difficult for me to write. Maybe I am shy...but if you read it, please tell me if you liked it. Thanks as always...
