Chapter 9: An Immortal Appetite
The following few weeks blurred together. Wally tried to distract himself with training with Monica. His frustration was making her sore literally. Supergirl presence around the city doubled cracking down on crime. Kara hadn't realized it but she wanted the city safer Brighter for the lights that needed to shine. That needed to thrive in her home. Nova beefed up the security at L Corp adding Jarvis to maintain the systems. With Jarvis there, hackers or thief in any way would be detected within milliseconds and reported directly to Lena. Cadmus was locked out for good. The last of her security upgrade included Mark VII. A full body mechanical suit contributed by Tony Stark rebuilt with Monica. Along with the melted down vibranium from Captain America's shield and Jarvis program, it was the last gift given to Monica. The suit wasn't her style. It would serve a higher purpose as a bodyguard for Lena. Jarvis controlled the suits actions as Vision would have. His periodicals were only to protect Lena at all costs. The suit had been rebranded as L Corp property even though Lena couldn't for the life of her figure out the Arc receptor that powered or the assembly of such suit. It stood dormant by Lena's office doors most days only to accompany her home to ensure her safety. It was hard to wrap her head around that she had been placed in such protection. There were people that cared for her so much that they'd rather jump in front of bullets to protect her. Often she would catch herself staring at Mark VII pondering what it was capable of. Jarvis's active intelligence would have easily eradicated Jess's position at L Corp if it wasn't for Lena.
Beyond kept trying to remind Monica to be loyal to their causes. Dirk sent threatening messages almost daily for them to return to State 51. Though all of his messages remained unanswered. The evidence of their involvement with unsavory groups only cemented her resolve. The first breach opened outside of headquarters, Jessi Quick emerged out of it. After, Monica properly vetted her. Wally and Jessi could fall back into the swing of their relationship. They both treated the facilities as their personal playground. Nova draws the line on running inside after they both broke a few vases kissing. Jessi was thrilled to know Wally was a speedster now. He could finally share everything with her. The headquarters had a certain loving vibe to it. Nova wouldn't know each night if she headed to Lena's penthouse or Kara's freezing apartment until Lena caught a cold spending the night. They'd picked one resident for the three. Lena's penthouse was out of the question which only left Monica's. It was large enough but Lena had the issue with her commute time to L Corp. A bit of convincing on Kara's part Lena bent.
Another breach opened during the night. Two large males exited the breach. Monica nearly tackled Adam Brashear down to the ground overjoyed to see him. Eros shook Monica's hand with the utmost respect. They had worked together in the past. A level of respect was owed to one another. Eros and Adam made themselves at home at H.A.T.E. Immediately agree to join Nextwave claiming they'd fight for Captain Marvel any day. She chuckled at the mention of that old name. She was no longer Captain Marvel. It was a part of her past. The past she did not dwell on often. Eros had a slew of women around him. There were only a few things that could preoccupy his mind between missions. Adam took up his free time by teaching as a physics professor at a university.
Matt Murdock and Maya Lopez arrived together. Matt had his faltering feeling about leaving Hell's Kitchen. The Devil of Hell's Kitchen wasn't needed anymore. He knew that at least. Crime desperately needed to be brought into the light. His vigilante truphemus only brought it back into the shades. The need to help did not subside. The beckoning voices of help kept him up at night. He jumped at the promise for a new world to protect. Maya didn't find it surprising that she received a similar promise. Matt and herself were a package deal. They worked better together than apart.
The last of the recruits were unexpected. Monica went on a whim sent a message to Thor. In response, he sent back two members of the Defenders, Brunnhilde and Elsa Bloodstone. It was the best rejection Wally had ever seen. Brunnhilde was the legend. Elsa held loaded guns in her sleep. The team was assembled. Kara interview each arrival for Catco. She saved the best interview for last, Monica AKA Spectrum.
========24========
The blonde cleared her throat straightened her skirt. She had thought interviewing Lena was stressful. Monica was a whole another story. Her heart fluttered pounding relentlessly looking everywhere but her elegant cheekbones. It wasn't just nerves. They had passion between each other that could heat up a room a certain gravitational pull that lured her in. And of course, her comfortable posture showed their undeniable chemistry. Monica took advantage of the time alone with her. They interviewed in Nova's art studio in abstract chairs.
"James will be here soon."
"The team is getting ready."
Kara gazed down at her notepad. Snapper had sent over a list of questions with important points to be clear on. He had no faith in her to give a worth will interview. After a few interviews were submitted his enthusiasm had peaked. It was obvious he wanted to take credit for the biggest story Catco had received all year. Thanks to Monica he couldn't snuff it from under Kara's nose. The byline would read Kara Danvers.
"I can feel your nerves, girl of steel."
"Sorry, it's just Snapper Car is really depending on me."
Monica leaned forward, pressed her lips against Kara's. Her hand rubbed her cheek. "Better?"
She nodded opening her eyes catching Monica's stormy eyes.
Nova sat back down.
"What compelled you to start helping others?"
"For a while, I was nothing more than a danger to others. My abilities rendered me powerless to biological meltdowns which endangered a lot of people. My mentor helped me become more stable and be proud of my gifts. One night I saw something horrible a man across the street was abusing his stepdaughter. He did it in such a way you couldn't tell. She would scream, a scream that made your blood thicken in your veins at the sound of it. I tried calling the police but with a lack of physical evidence, they couldn't do anything. He was released back on the street. So, every night I could hear those screams see what he was doing to her. I reached a breakpoint that scared even myself. I decided to do something about it ever since helping people became first nature to me."
"Wow, most people would say that heroic of you. Do you see yourself as a hero?"
"No. not at all. Supergirl is a hero."
Kara blushed, "W-Why wouldn't you see yourself as a hero?"
"Heroes are expected to be good to put other's lives above their own. I think I am too selfish for such title."
"What does H.A.T.E stand for?"
"It stands for Highest Anti-Terrorism Effort."
"Oh, is that why the team isn't seen around the city often?"
"Exactly. Terrorism isn't just in the United States. It's all over the globe. No one should suffer at the hands of terrorist plus National City has Supergirl to protect it. If she ever needed help NextWave would be there."
"Are you the leader of NextWave?"
"I assembled it, yes. The team doesn't have a single leader."
"It's a democracy?"
"No. Certain members of the team run point based on their skill set depending on the mission."
"What sets you apart from the other team members?"
"Are you asking what makes me so special? I think you'd have to ask my parents for that answer." Nova laughed into a smile.
Kara let a smile slip the vibration of her phone cause a loud buzz. She read the text, "James is here."
"I hope you know the only reason I'm allowing him to shoot us is because he's a great photographer."
"I know. Just promise you won't hurt him."
"Hurt the guy you used to have feelings for? Wouldn't think of it."
Kara laughed pulled Nova into a kiss. "Promise me."
"I promise, Supergirl. I want something in exchange, though."
"What?"
Nova leaned in closer to her ear, sliding her hand into Kara's skirt pulling at her panties. "These."
A deep red spread across Kara's cheeks, "I can't... He'll know.."
"Deal or no deal." She moved her hand out of Kara's skirt.
Monica hadn't been this outwardly flirtatious with her. It didn't catch her off guard because she was that way with Lena. They'd one second be talking then the next wrapped up in a heated kiss leaving her to sit and watch. It was frustrating. She was timid compared to the both of them always fighting for dominance. Most nights either Lena or Monica would start something in bed but stop because she was there. Maybe this was the chance she needed to show Monica she was ready for more.
Those stormy eyes widen as Kara stood up and lifted her skirt slowly pulling down her cheeky plum panties a single strand of creamy wetness connected the fabric to her pussy broke. Monica raised her hand. Kara nervously placed her panties into her hand. She looked around for a second.
"I should suit up he's almost done setting up."
"I've never seen you in your suit."
"I don't put it on often. Do you want to see it?"
Kara nodded with the cheeriest smile.
Monica flashed them into the living room. Electricity emulated from her hand reach for the specific spot on the wall beside the bookcase. The bookcase separated in the center revealing an all-black room with white grids on the floor. A gust of wind went through her golden locks. Monica appeared in a full-body chameleon black kevlar suit that extended down to her toes stopped at her neck. She walked into one of the grids. The floor broke apart into sections and the wall releasing mechanical arms that attached her iconic chest plate to her. The floor lifted the base of mechanical boots identical to Mark VII. She stepped into mechanical boots while the arms continued to assemble her shoulder and back plates. The arms finished hinging together her mid-knee boots. There was no shine to her combat suit the lower half was all black raising up to her vibranium chest plate that lit up in the center with her bursting star emblem. The chest plate was half white and black that spilled onto her shoulder and back. Grabs formed together again. Monica stepped out of the small room. The bookcase closed. The suit made her appear intimidating. The only glimpse of skin showing was her biceps and her visible arm tattoos. No mask to hide her lovely face or conceal her identity. The emblem on her chest glowed smoldering white. It dazzled in such a way anyone could tell it wasn't a shade of white. All the colors perfectly blended together to form white light. Kara stood stiffly looking over the detail.
Monica could tell Kara needed a second to take it all in. Adam hovered onto her balcony tapped the glass. She nodded to him.
"He's ready."
========25========
The entire time gathered outside in an open field. Those who could fly did. While the others held their dearest weapons to themselves in battle poses. Once, the shoot was over the girls circled around the camera analyzing their figures or facial expression leaving Kara and Nova an opportunity to sneak off.
"Where did Kara go?" James asked.
"Those two lovebirds probably sneak off to be alone," Elsa replied.
James confused thoroughly. "Lovebirds? What do you mean?"
"Kara and Monica." Elsa grinned.
Eros held his gut laughing too hard, "You didn't know?"
"No. Kara never told me."
"They are so cute together," Elsa admitted
Maya gushed, "Lena and Kara are the cutest."
"No. Lena and Monica." Matt chimed in.
"You can't even see." Maya and Elsa pointed out.
Matt laughed. "Fair enough."
"Lena Luthor? The C.E.O of L Corp?" James searched everyone's faces for answers.
Matt felt bad for the guy just patted his shoulder walked back to base with Maya holding onto his arm. Adam flew off into the air never interested in the conversation. Elsa tried catching up to Matt and Maya. Eros used his speed to collect all of James equipment.
"Maybe you should ask Kara." He said.

(Bonus Scene for Special Fan)
========27========
An abundant amount of bustling filled the H.A.T.E's levels as the team readied for dinner. Maya assisted Matt in picking a suit. Eros phoned all the beauties he knew for a dinner date. Adam prepared dinner in the main kitchen. Elsa tried to set the massive dinner table. Jessi readjusting the silverware to give Wally kicks. Elsa eventually caught her threatening to shoot one of her ears off if she didn't cut it out. Matt and Maya joined the team wearing matching outfits. Captivated by Earth's beer Brunnhilde drunk six packs like water while watching television. The only two people that weren't down on the main level were Monica and Kara. They hadn't been seen since the photo shoot with James. Lena arrived on time with a bottle of wine in her hand. Wally quickly put it to use by uncorking it and placing it on the table. She looked around the sea of people couldn't find her loves anywhere. Matt hears Lena's heartbeat quickening as she searched the dining hall for them. He whispered light enough only she could hear where exactly in the house they were. Lena thanked him went up to the top level to Monica's apartment. She unlocked the door with her new key.
"Honey's, I'm home."
Either of them came running. Lena went into the bedroom but once again they were nowhere to be found. Eventually found them in the closet. Kara and Monica were standing close going back and forth.
"It's not a good idea." Kara argued back.
"What's not a good idea?" Lena interrupted.
Monica grinned, "Lena, you're home early."
"I wouldn't miss your big night. Are you both going to make me ask again?"
"Monica wants me to invite my sister to dinner." Kara admitted.
"Oh… Why not Kara?"
"Because... Because I'm upset with her. She can't abduct people and call it protecting me."
"Kara, she thought I was manipulating you. She had every right to find out the truth." Monica said.
"No, she had every right to investigate you to find out what side you were on. She had no right to come here drug you and interrogate you." Kara snapped back.
"Your right. I think Monica wants to put this behind her. She is the one who has a right to be angry right now. She isn't. I think she could come to dinner too. Let them hash it out." Lena said.
"Exactly. I can feel how much you love her. I don't want to stand in the way of that." Monica softly put.
Kara gave them both her famous pout, "Please don't make me."
Monica melted wavering to Kara's side. Lena crossed her arms at Kara.
"Fine!"
Kara called her sister invited her to dinner. Alex was hesitant they had talked little it was unlike her to just get over things without talking about it firsthand. Lena moved her hair over to one side, Monica unzipped her work dress pulled down the straps. It fell to the floor. She stepped out of it. Lena looked over her clothes meshed in with Monica's predominately black clothes with splashes of pastels. Monica admired Lena's figure. Kara hung up with her sister.
"She's coming?" Monica asked.
"Yeah, she's bringing her girlfriend too."
Lena finished putting on her outfit. "She's gay?" She looked herself over in the mirror.
"Yeah," Kara answered.
"Wow, that makes her so much hotter," Lena admitted without thinking.
Kara shot her a look.
"Kidding." Lena tried to look serious.
They joined the rest of the team down on the main level. Adam had mathematically portioned out all the food to everyone's insane appetite. Wally helped him serve dinner. The aroma dragged Kara to the table. It didn't look like a dinner of a normal household. Tart smells covered the smokiness of the meats decoratively placed at the table. It was a buffet of almost every culture. Creamy muscles oozed out of lobsters an entire platter of crispy fries several boats of cheeses. Every kind square meal was represented from waffles, breakfast burritos, cakes, mushy pudding, pizza, salad, and so much more. The fruit was cut into ocean waves. Strawberry sushi spelled out hate at the center of the table. Vintage bottles of wines that Eros snagged from a collectors volt. Mushroom soup, bitter greens with tomatoes the size of peas, rare roast beef slices as thin as paper, noodles in a green sauce, cheese that melts on your tongue served with sweet blue grapes. Stacks of mini burgers sat beside the fries. Monica even made her family's secret recipe gumbo. It was decadent. Adam clapped pulling everyone's attention to the set table.
"Come Eat!"
No one sat down at the heads of the table. Two long benches were pulled out as everyone found a place. Right off the bat, they started to chow down. The security camera's picked up motion outside. The doorbell rang. Monica looked toward the door.
"Your sister is here. Do you want me to.."
"No, I should get it." She leaps up from the table to answer the door.
It didn't feel right to leave Kara alone to face her sister. Lena gave her a cautious look. She reached for her hand intertwined their fingers. Her hands calmed her, and the softness dragged her back down to reality. If she wanted a bright future with Kara, she needed to get with Alex. It only made scenes. Eros joked with Wally. Adam hovered in his seat eventually sampling each dish. It had been a few minutes since Kara had left. Nova couldn't take it anymore. A cutting pain drove down deep into her stomach. Kara was upset. Monica rose headed to the front door. Alex was apologizing to her but Kara didn't want to hear it. A light touch on her shoulder relaxed her. She knew that touch anywhere.
"Hi, I'm Monica Rambeau but Spectrum if you're nasty." She reached her hand out to Maggie.
She chuckled shook firm, "Maggie Sawyer, nice to meet you."
Nova's eyes set on the redhead. A paralyzing fear spread through her entire body clenched her jaw inching her hand over to her. The impulse to walk away seared into her trembling feet. Kara adjusted her glasses feeling Nova's fear. Their hands met into a shake.
"I feel awful for what I did. You didn't deserve any of it. If I would have known you two were..."
"Hey, no hard feelings. I would do... Be anything Kara needed. So I understand. Do me a favor don't abduct any of my friends."
"I won't. Thank you really."
Maggie said in a monotone voice, "Now that's over with. Let's eat."
They joined the rest of everyone at the dinner table. Maggie and Alex sat together beside Matt and Eros. Kara sat in between Monica and Lena.
Matt moved his open hand toward Maggie, "Matt Murdock also known as Daredevil."
Maya leaned into him looking at the guests, "Hi, I'm Echo."
Eros's eyes undressing Alex, "I'm Eros, but you can call me Starfox sweetheart."
"Eros it is." She sarcastically said back.
"I should introduce myself shouldn't I?" Elsa whispered to Brunnhilde
She nodded.
"Hey, I'm Elsa Bloodstone this sexy blonde is Brunnhilde." She gleamed.
"Kid Flash, Wally West."
"Jessi Quick or just Jessi is fine."
The reluctance on Adam's face was transparent. He did not trust them nor did he want them around. Tonight was more than a dinner to the team. It was a celebration of their unity. Out of all the teams, he had fought on. Fighting with Monica brought him the most joy. He had seen her at her worst. Brought her back to life with her powers. They always kept a close relationship one of a father and daughter. There wasn't a single thing that Monica could ask of him he couldn't have done. Her abduction at the hands of the small woman sitting across from him rubbed him in such a bad way. Monica could forgive her for Kara but he had no reason to. Instead, of introducing himself he filled his plate kept quite.
Brunnhilde had indulged, eating more than she'd thought possible. She'd started on creamy nettle soup that felt warm in her belly, which settled the hangover she would've had. When the bowl was empty she focused more closely to lobster etched sweet dressing fragrance stretching out to caress her nostrils. It had been surrounded by islands of steamed vegetables. A handsome fish dish had followed. Matt was a strict vegan his plate did not conceal it. Shatter about past battles, best takedown techniques, and types of rifles. Alex liked the openness. Everyone has his or her moments of captivating storytelling although Lena was just human with no death-defying story to tell. She did not have to impress being a Luthor and owning a successful company meant she wasn't built for bragging. Adam gladly geeked out about physics with her some of it was over her head but she liked to think he kept her sharp. Kara ogled the many platters of potstickers Lena made sure was present at dinner. Delicate fingers slide the platter over in Kara's direction. Within minutes it was void of all previous food. Monica kept her eyes down on her full plate. She didn't need food to sustain herself. Her body generated enough energy to power every cell in her body. The fork just moved around the food. She sipped on the wine.
Eventually, Monica rose up with her drink in her hand high. They all looked up at her.
"Sorry to interrupt, I just wanted to say. I am more than grateful to fight alongside all of you. It was my hope to form a strong team to bring terrorism to its knees. Regardless if no one outside of these walls knows this, you are all heroes to me. To us, we're fearless, we're rebels, we're outcasts, we're orphans, we're shooters so they'll try to kill us. We're brave, we're mutants, we're accidents… WE ARE NEXTWAVE!"
Each member of the team stood up raised their glasses, "To us!" They all clinked their glasses together.
Alex searched Kara's face for answers, "Terrorism?"
Maggie looked at Alex, "Team?"
"Awww, they're so cute all confused.." Elsa blurted out.
Eros looked up from his steak, "Why do you have to flirt with anything that moves?"
"Why do you have to fuck anything that can breathe?" Elsa said.
"Cool it you too." A fatherly tone exuded out of Adam
Eros curled his lip up continued to eat. Monica released her fork lowered her hand from the table to Kara's knee. Her thigh tightened nearly bent her fork in half. Lena looked down to secretly check her email noticed Monica's hand. Huffed at Monica's bold choice. She calmly moved her hand up Kara's thigh into her skirt. Lena aided by moving her hand onto her thigh opening them wider for Monica's hand. Kara looked down at both of their hand's inches closer to her inner thighs. Lena had experience keeping a straight face. It was flawless. Monica sipped on her wine keeping her attention of those who could notice. Kara's toes curled when Lena's fingertip grazed over her pussy's slit. She tried to hide a smirk. "No panties..." she thought. Monica's fingers opened her slit. Kara trembled under both of their touch on her clit twitch as her wetness streamed down onto the bench. She let go of her silverware reach down and held on top both of their wrists, and someone's finger slide right inside her. She shifted her posture leaned into Monica's arm trying to hide her heavy blush.
"Monica you and my sister have been getting close," Alex said
Monica looked around, "Did you want a response to that or is it an observation?"
Kara looked for the words to end the transactions between Alex and Monica, "We're together Alex."
Brunnhilde watched the exchange opening another beer leaning back in her chair as this was the best entertainment she had seen all year. Adam made himself another plate waiting for the shoe to drop. He knew the probability of the conversation to go well was low.
"Ah, does anyone want a refill?" Jessi said.
"Yes, I'll help you." Both of the speedsters burst from the table into the kitchen.
"Maggie if you don't mind me asking, what do you do?" Matt gleamed.
Monica heard Kara soft voice leak into her ears, "Please… I can't." She turned kissed Kara pulling her hands off of her. Lena rescinded her hand.
"I'm a police officer," Maggie replied
"I would have guessed lightweight bodybuilder because of all the calluses on your hands." He openly admired.
"How can you even see that? Aren't you…. Or you just like sporting sunglasses inside?" She said.
He smiled, "The tissues on your hands have been healed many times. Unlike, the wound on your shoulder that still gives you discomfort. Yes, I am blind."
"Wow."
"Stop showing off Matthew." Maya insisted.
"What? Me? Show off? Doesn't even sound like me." Matt leaned over and kissed her softly resumed eating.
Monica's hand moved up slowly then stopped. A pink blush went over Kara's ear tried tugging down her dress. A loud buzz came from Lena's phone. She instinctively looked down at the screen. "I should..."
"No." Kara and Monica's stimutasouly said.
Just about everyone resuming eating until their heart's content. Trays were pulled from the table to clear room for additional food. A silence wormed around the table as everyone met their fill. Eros and Kara even pushed away from their plates.
"How did you get an invitation, Lena?" Alex asked.
"I didn't need one. I sleep here most nights." Lena said, her voice icy.
"Don't you have a penthouse or whole building to sleep in?"
"I prefer to be with Kara and Monica."
"Kara…" Alex attempted a judgmental look.
Maya stood up from the table pulling Matt up by his arm. They needed to talk. Anyone with eyes could see that. She extended his cane. They walked to the large couch in the far off living room. Monica looked at each of her team members. Some nodded and took their leave. Last to exit was Adam still unsure of the redhead's presence. Everyone suggested what they should watch.
"Maggie, can you give us a minute?" Kara asked kindly.
"Sure baby Danvers." Maggie kissed Alex's cheek before joining arguing team on the couch.
"Explain Kara."
"What you aren't going to do is demand things of her." Monica lip coiled upward nose twitched.
"Nova!" Lena snapped at her.
"No, she's right. I shouldn't demand I should ask. What's going on Kara?"
Kara fidgeted with her glasses cleared her throat. "I...I...I… love both of them."
Those words shock around the table. Monica ingested it the best by not commenting on it. Deep down she knew the more time they spent together the more inclined she would be to love her. It was her magnetic pull. The closer she got to the Kara she would feel even more drawn to her. All she could hope it was real. Her hand rubbed over Kara's lovingly.
"It's only been a few weeks. I didn't even know you had feelings for Lena. You always defended her but I never knew it went that deep Kara. I… I thought maybe you and Monica were bonded somehow but love? Are you sure?"
She genuinely nodded.
"Is it true are you bonded to my sister?" She looked at Monica.
"No. We are perfect matches. Sort of like soul mates. It's the same with Lena and me."
"How can you have more than one perfect matches?"
"It is because of my mutation." She lifted her hand, letting it radiated electricity, slowly faded back to normal. "My DNA makes my body somewhat like a magnet. If I was born on Krypton I would have found Kara naturally the moment we touched everything would have changed for both of us. Since I was born on Earth I was pulled to Lena. She is more like me then Kara." Lena listened carefully to Monica's full explanation. "I was never supposed to meet Kara in my life. Circumstances brought her here to Earth it was only a matter of time before we found each other."
Alex listened to her eyes still on Kara as if to be saying 'They know?!'
"So... So you aren't human?"
"I am a human with mutated DNA. Some call my kind the next stage in human evolution."
Alex stood up from the table paced back and forth putting it all together in her mind. "But, you just love Lena Luthor because you love her?"
"I love them because that's how I feel, Alex." Kara corrected.
Lena grinned. Kara was sure of her feelings toward her. It made her admire their connection so much more. She took Kara's hand under the table. They were both supporting Kara through the conversation. "We love each other."
"Will both protect my sister?"
"With my life," Monica admitted quickly.
"Yes," Lena said.
Alex finally stopped pacing took in a breath. Her expression softened, "Okay. I want you to be happy more than anything Kara."
========28========
The eerie darkness of that night would never escape the overstuffed restless bodies. The pitch-black curtain draped over the sky and the twisted, warped shapes that the stars made against the blackness. The milky speckles twirled and danced along the sky in various patterns, tugging at the corners of Lena's lips to make Kara crave her. She smiled down at her with love so intense it warmed her soul like a fireplace on a cold winter's night. One by one the team found reasons to retire to their beds. The guest had long gone. Monica instructed Jarvis to lock down the compound. They headed up to the cozy apartment. Kara went to the bedroom. She looked out the window. Outside of the city, it was quiet calm in some ways. She had come accustomed to the smell of the city the abundance of life pouring out of each building. If she focused she could still hear the bustle of the city. Almost silent footsteps came from behind her, Lena's arms wrapped around her waist her chin gently laid on her shoulder. Her head tilted downward feeling ungrounded. A softhearted dismayed voice, "I shouldn't have said.."
She was turned around delicate fingers touched her lips. "Shhhh…" The next thing Kara knew, she had slammed her lips to hers and nearly knocked all wind from her lungs. She hardly had a moment to react before she pressed her tongue to the seam of my lips and grant of access, delved inside her mouth. It was a very sloppy kiss with the strong scent of old wine being exchanged in the intermingling of their billowing breaths. Kara's hands reached up and tangled into her bone straight hair. In an instant she had pulled away and arched closer to her body, moaning in the contact of body heat against her own, before drew back into her lips. Kara could nearly feel the slight burn of the wine as it rolled off her tongue and seeped down my throat with every push of her tongue against hers. Lena bit down her lip, knowing full well that Kara was about to seduce her, nothing needed to be said. Kara breezed them to the bed. It had always been written in their gaze, chemistry, a seed of love, an invitation to learn about the other. She removed Lena clothes slowly careful to rip the fabric. She knows that once Lena kisses her neck resistance will crumble into nothing.
Monica walked into the bedroom rubbing the back of her neck. It was aching. The slight pain pulled her attention to her. Tilted her head to the side looked around stopped in her tracks. Insatiable fire that burnt all the oxygen in her body left listless and empty. It was the cruelty of long lifespan that a heart can keep on beating even after it has been broken in two. She had heard Kara profess her love just hours ago. Her heart had felt as though it is being gripped in an ice-cold vice and ache as if it will implode in her chest, but still the boom-boom continues as she watched them for a moment longer. She retreated to the farthest space away from them, caved in on herself.
