PART 17:
Liana led Trip to the mouth of the cave.
"Umm, you want to tell me why we're back here," Trip asked as he looked up at where the rocks had fallen from.
"There's something I've been wanting to show you," Liana said and she took a step into the cave.
"Hey wait a minute," Trip called out.
Liana turned and looked at him.
"Didn't you say people went in here and never came out?"
"Do you trust me?"
"Of course I do."
"Then just follow me."
Trip looked up one last time and then followed Liana into the cave.
*****************************
Trip walked into a room behind Liana. It was bigger than any of the rooms in the compound. The only light that was in there came from candles. The walls were covered with several dark colored tapestries, and in the middle were what seemed like hundreds of pillows arranged in a square.
"What is this room?" he asked.
"I'm not sure," Liana explained. "I found this place about a month after we returned here. I started coming here not long after that."
"So that story about others coming in here and never coming back out," Trip said. "Isn't true?"
"Oh no, it's true," Liana replied. "That's what makes this place so great."
"For what?"
"Just to be by myself without anyone disturbing me," Liana smiled. "That way I can think about my life, and you."
She moved over to him and put her hand to his cheek. She loved him so much she thought as she leaned in closer and kissed him.
Trip wrapped his arms around her and deepened the kiss. When he felt his body being to response to their closeness, he pulled away and turned his back to her.
"Trip are you all right?" Liana asked she was worried. "Did I do something wrong?"
Trip sighed. "No darlin', it's not you."
"Then what is it?"
"It's me."
She looked surprised. "I don't understand."
Trip turned around and saw the tears in her eyes. His heart ached at the site.
"We can't," he said. "We can't do this."
Liana put her finger to his lips. "Trip, I want you. I didn't bring you in here just to show you this room. I brought you in here cause I want to make love to you."
"But..."
"Please," she interrupted. "I need to do this. Make love to me, Trip," she moved closer to him again and started nipping at his ear.
Trip moaned. "You aren't making it easy for me to be a gentleman."
"Whoever said I wanted you to be a gentleman?"
Trip surrendered and kissed her passionately. He didn't care if this wasn't diplomatic, and to hell with T'Pol's protocols. He was with the woman he loved.
Their hands began to move all over each other, touching, feeling, exploring. Trip had removed her sweater and lowered her dress down to her shoulders. He moved his mouth to her neck and began kissing and nibbling his way to her shoulder.
Liana ran her hands through his hair. Her body was on fire. He was making her feel things she never felt before and she wanted more. She found the zipper to his jumpsuit and lowered it. Trip help her get the top down to his waist. She hooked her hands under the tank top and quickly discarded that as well.
The heat from her hands on his chest made Trip moan. He kissed her fully on the lips again and picked her up in his arms and headed over towards the pillows. They didn't break a beat. Trip gently lowered her onto the pillows, his body stretching out on top of hers. Liana moaned as his mouth continued to plunder hers.
Finally breaking the kiss. Trip helped Liana out of her dress and she helped him out of the rest of his jumpsuit, leaving him only in his underwear.
He smiled as Liana laid back onto the pillows. From what he could she so far there was no difference from her to a human woman. He decided to do a little exploring and see if the rest was the same.
He laid down beside her. His hand caressed her breast as he kissed her. Liana moaned into his mouth at the sensation it was causing throughout her body.
Trip kissed his way down to her breast. He took the first one into his mouth, sucking and licking the nipple until it was hard as a rock. He moved over to the other one and gave it the same treatment. He continued his quest southwards.
Parting her legs with his hand, he smiled again. Nope, there was no difference that he could see. He settled between her legs first kissing one thing and then the other.
Liana wondered what Trip was doing and then she felt his tongue on her most private part. She groaned. "Trip, what are you doing to me?"
She never received an answer. Trip continued licking and sucking her clit. The sensation was overwhelming. Liana's breath quickened with each lick, and she gently tugged on his hair in a silent plea not to stop.
Trip heard her gasp and knew she was close. He continued his menstruation. Liana was thrashing her head back and forth, he body felt as if it was on overload.
She cried out his name as she came. Trip licked and sucked her through her orgasm. Once her breathing calmed down he kissed his way back up. Stopping once again to pay attention to her breast. Liana helped him out of his underwear and he positioned himself over her.
"Ready for part two?" Trip asked in a husky voice.
Liana smiled and nodded her head yes.
She gasped when she felt Trip enter her. There was pain at first, but it had gone away as he continued to push his way into her.
"Oh God!" Trip moaned and leaned his forehead again hers. She was so tight and hot.
Once he was complete inside her, he gave her a kiss on the forehead. He needed to get control of his body. He hadn't been with a woman since Natalie and he didn't want to this to be over in just a few mindless minutes. He wanted to prolong their love making with ecstasy.
He slowly started thrusting into her, small movements at first and then gradually increasing the pace.
With each thrust, he whispered words of love into her ear. With each thrust, their moans echoed throughout the room. With each thrust, he brought tem closer to their release.
Liana couldn't believe the sensation that was going through her body. She clung to Trip as he continued his movements into her.
Trip supported his weight on his arms. He was getting close and he wanted to make sure Liana was there with him. One look at his lover told him she was riding the same wave he was.
Liana moved her legs up higher on Trip's waist and both cried out as he slipped deeper inside of her. Each of his thrust were getting more intense.
Finally she cried out his name as that sensation exploded throughout her body. She never felt anything so wonderful in her life and she held onto Trip as her orgasm continued to tear through her.
Trip felt her clench around him and knew he wasn't going to last much longer. He thrusted into her one last time calling out her name as he emptied his seed deep inside of her.
With their breathing now under control and their heart rates back to normal. Trip slipped out of her and pulled her into an embrace as he laid on top of the pillows.
"That was wonderful," Liana said.
Trip smiled and kissed her on top of the head. It had been a long time since he had felt this good.
"I love you," he told her.
"I love you too."
Trip tightened his embrace around her and they fell asleep together.
He stood watching the lovers from his hiding place, and what he just witnessed sickened him. How could she? How could she do that with a human?
The feeling of sickness was replaced by pure anger and he toyed with the idea of slicing the humans throat as he slept. But no, that was to risky. He could be detected. He would wait. Wait until a perfect moment presented itself. When there was not a chance at him being caught. With one last look at the sleeping couple, he turned and left the room.
