"I … I should go," Diana said reluctantly, more so to herself than to Kal.

"You don't have to," he told her.

Diana paused, and then stepped close to Kal, so near to him that they could feel one another's breaths.

"I've seen your strength, Kal-El," she said quietly. "I've been intimate with you in ways I'd never imagined, and I've seen into your soul. Tell me now, why do you want me here?"

This time Kal paused, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Princess, we live in a universe of God and devils, angels and demons, worlds and realms … but, we're not like any of them. Tell me, do you ever feel alone?"

"Of course, I … do."

Gazing into each other's eyes, Kal and Diana slowly drew toward one another. Raising her hands to his cheeks, Diana leaned forward and pressed her lips to Kal's. Since neither of them had ever been able to touch anyone else with their true strength, these simple touches between them were always extraordinary. As Diana held the kiss, Kal's hands slowly raised to cradle her hair. When they parted, she stared up at him with sadness in her eyes.

"Goodbye, Kal-El of Krypton," said Diana.

"Goodbye, Diana of Themyscira," said Kal.

Taking another final touch, Diana put her arms around his neck and pulled him into a warm hug. Wrapping his large arms around her slim waist, Kal held her gently, tenderly, somberly. Neither of them wanting to let go.

A long quiet moment passed between the two of them.

Then, Diana leaned back, stared into Kal's eyes, and kissed him again. The kiss was soft … sweet … meaningful … and not enough. They parted.

"Goodbye, Kal."

"Goodbye, Diana."

Diana took Kal's hand in her own for the final time.

Tearing her eyes away from him, Diana's heels turned to leave.

Kal didn't let go of her hand.

Diana paused. She couldn't believe how strongly her heart had been hoping that he would stop her like this. Her response was immediate.

Turning back around, Diana kept their hands joined and raised her other hand to the back of his neck. Kal leaned into her for another goodbye kiss, and Diana didn't hesitate to reciprocate.

Kal kissed Diana deeply … emotionally … passionately, the way that a man kisses the woman he wants to become his bride. His free hand laid on the small of her back and lightly drew her more into him. She kissed him back with all her heart, feeling as if she were a woman reaching for her last taste of water before entering an oasis.

After another long moment, they parted again.

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

The opposite happened. Their lips met again. This time, there would be no end to their embrace. Before Kal and Diana realized it, they were both floating in the air.

Diana began to guide their course, leading them toward the bedroom. Kal kept kissing her, holding Diana against him tenderly. Unconsciously, the two of them began a slow spin, as if riding on a carousel of love.

With firm hands, Diana began to remove Kal's cape from his shoulders. Diana broke their kissing long enough to lift his shirt up over his head and off, dropping it in the hallway where it lay. Kal raised his arms to eagerly help her, and then his large hands moved around to the back of her corset to try to unclasp it. Never having undressed a woman before, he fumbled, and Diana quickly snatched it off.

Again, as when he first laid eyes on Diana's beautiful buxom breasts, Kal paused in awe, but this time Diana was filled with too much desire to leave him to his admiring. Grabbing his manly hands, Diana placed them firmly on her breasts, his palms turning her taut nipples into hardened peaks so sensitive to his touch they were almost painful. She had moaned loudly before she had even realized it.

Her pleasure was music to his ears. Keeping one hand still kneading her breasts, his other hand slipped around to the small of her back to draw her closer to him. In response, one of Diana's hands rubbed his bulging pecs as the other tangled in the back of his hair. Kal had intended to kiss his way down to suckle on her breasts, but her lips were far too captivating to leave them. Diana broke their kissing only just long enough to whisper in his ear.

"Don't stop, Kal," urged Diana. "Please don't stop."

To further him on, Diana grabbed the sides of Kal's trousers and pushed them down off his hips. She hovered up a little higher and used her agile legs to slide them all them way down to his boots. In a quick moment, she had leaned over to grasp his boots one at a time and slip them off. Following her lead, Kal disrobed Diana in virtually one motion. As soon as she raised back up from his waist, Kal leaned her back by her shoulders and then pulled her dress down, grasping the edges of her high heeled boots along with her garment to remove them all at once. His ingenuity earned him a sexy smile from his princess.

Now completely bare to one another in every way, Kal and Diana pressed their bodies together. The full contact with each other gave them pause. Even their intense passion gave way to the growing love between them. The two of them hovered in silence, just holding one another.

Then, as they floated through the hallway, rain from Heaven seemed to begin to fall for their blossoming love. Looking up with joyful smiles, the two of them realized that Jor-El had activated a metaphysical sprinkler system, dropping sparkling water down to cleanse their bodies of their battle wear. They laughed together, enjoying the immersion.

The water was tinged with minute traces of elixir, obviously intended to aid their healing from their battle in Themyscira. The red hue of the elixir again manifested as sparkling prisms, creating an almost magical effect of glowing rain. Everything around them was glowing, and it was a beautiful sight.

"He takes care of us, doesn't he?" said Diana.

"Yes, he does," smiled Kal.

He opened his mouth to say more, but Diana stole his next breath with a kiss. They floated through the luminescent rain, again kissing and rubbing each other with heated fervor. It was impossible for Kal and Diana to get enough of one another.

As they soared into the inner sanctuary of the private bedroom, they made their way over the mattress. Instead of laying down upon it, Kal and Diana simply hovered horizontally in the air a few feet above it. With the adrenaline of battle still coursing through them, their loving fascination exploring this new world of intimacy, and given their natural innate abilities, these two particular lovers were experiencing new depths of their powers.

They hardly even noticed that they were floating above the bed instead of laying on it.

Kal wasn't going to proceed any further than Diana wanted, and he gave her all control. But Diana was certain of her feelings for Kal, and she had made her decision. She rolled them so that he was under her, and she straddled him without breaking their kissing. Taking him in hand, she guided him into her entrance.

She was dripping wet and he was hard as steel. Both their mouths fell open as she began to take him inside her. When Diana felt her final barrier break open under Kal's steel, she laid her forehead against his own to steady her. They rested a moment with their eyes closed, taking a moment to gather themselves from the all consuming essence of their bonding.

"Kal," she whispered.

"Diana," he responded.

In perfect harmony, Diana began to slide downward as Kal pushed upward, and neither of them stopped until their hips pressed together. It was absolutely overwhelmingly beautiful. They couldn't keep themselves from kissing again, their mouths joining to gasp between the other's lips.

Then, the unexpected.

The power of their bonding was so strong that they instantly went into simultaneous climax, sending a love shockwave cascading through them which was so intense it felt as if it may knock them out of their bodies.

In fact, it did.

Neither Kal nor Diana had realized they were still covered with the sprinkling of the elixir.

Their true feelings for each other within their deep sweet intimacy had started to unlock its full potential.

In the spiritual realm, the multiverse opened to them, and Kal and Diana began to slip through it together, experiencing touches of other shared worlds, circumstances, lifetimes, the two of them always coming together for the good of the universe …
