Adonis and Aphroditus Read online

  Zeus’ phone rang and he turned away to answer it. He turned back and explained, “That was Doc and Julie’s baby is a god. The child is Apis’ which might not be such a surprise considering how they reacted to each other.”

  “You mean you believe they are mates?” Nettie asked.

  “Yes, they are mates.”

  “How will this news affect my sister? I don’t want her forced into anything,” Nettie said.

  “No one here would ever force her. I think she and Apis have already started the relationship that will lead to them both choosing to be together. For now we’ve made a three bedroom apartment available for you, Julie, and Apis so he can watch over the two of you and see to your needs. He can show you around, order anything you need, and see that you are comfortable.”

  Afrod felt a sense of relief when Nettie didn’t complain. He’d feared she would object to him living with them even with separate bedrooms. Now that he would be close to her, he intended to lure her to his bed. Once he had her there, she would be his and he’d never let her go! He led her back to medical where they picked up Julie and then he took her to the new quarters he had been assigned. He opened the door and both females proceeded him inside.

  It was nice and he could see that Julie and Nettie both liked it. “Looks like the mates have fixed this up for us,” Afrod observed.

  “It’s lovely,” Nettie agreed.

  “Why don’t you pick your room first, Julie,” Afrod proposed.

  Julie squealed with glee and ran off to check out the bedrooms. “That was nice of you,” Nettie approved.

  “I was hoping you might share a room with me,” he suggested his face flushing at his own audacity.

  “I just might do that,” Nettie said turning redder than he had.

  A thrill shot through him as he realized what she had just conceded. His body tingled and his cock surged trying to prepare for any possibility. His hopes were on the sweetest thing of all, getting Nettie in his bed. “Nothing would please me more,” he whispered in her ear as he pulled her back against his chest. He moved his mouth along her neck nuzzling it.

  “I want that room,” Julie said pointing at the middle one.

  Hell, Afrod didn’t give a shit what room he had as long as Nettie was in it with him. “That’s fine. Someone will be bringing our bags to us soon.” The bags had been labeled so there shouldn’t be a problem.

  “Is Apis here yet?” Julie asked.

  “They stabilized him at a clinic and he will head here tomorrow,” Afrod informed. He knew it wouldn’t be long before Apis would be well and pursuing his interest in Julie. It would work out well so he could care for her while Afrod wooed his mate and worked on making their first child. The thought made him feel warm all over.

  “Will I be able to see him when he gets here?” Julie asked.

  “The moment he arrives,” Afrod offered.

  “He’s in stable condition?” Nettie questioned.

  “I’ve been told he’s expected to recover completely if there are no complications.”

  “What the hell does that mean?” Nettie asked.

  “It means if they didn’t miss something or if he doesn’t react badly to treatment, he’ll be fine.”

  “I can’t wait until he’s here,” Julie stated.

  “No more than two days, Julie,” Afrod promised.

  “I’m a little hungry,” Julie mentioned.

  “Why don’t I take you both on a tour and we’ll end up at the cafeteria?” Afrod suggested.

  “Sounds good,” Nettie agreed and Julie just nodded.

  After the tour, they went to the cafeteria where Afrod introduced them to the few gods that were there and the workers who fixed and served food. They all had a nice meal and they returned to the place that would be home for the three of them for now. They sat up for a while talking until Julie excused herself to go to bed. Afrod moved to the couch so he could sit next to Nettie. He couldn’t help himself, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her. She responded with the same passion he felt and he drank his fill of her sweet mouth.

  He panted in her ear, “Let’s go to the bedroom.” She nodded, her eyes glazed with need. He stood up and pulled her up by her hand and then he lifted her into his arms carrying her to the bedroom. He kicked the door shut behind them. He wouldn’t want to shock poor Julie if she came out of her room and wandered by.

  His attention was now completely on the gorgeous female in front of him. He set her down on her feet but kept her in his heated embrace. He slowly undressed her and he tenderly kissed her. He kissed her neck and then he bit her, she jerked away and started to say something but she was too relaxed to care. She smiled at him. “What did you do Baby?”

  “I just helped you relax a little.”

  He picked her up again, this time laying her stunning and naked body on the bed. As she lay there watching him, he undressed dropping his clothes in a pile on the floor. As he freed his cock, her eyes widened. He smiled at her as he saw the fascination she showed for his member.

  “It’s all for you, Sweetheart,” he promised.

  “I don’t think it will fit,” she whispered.

  “By the time I’m through with you, it’ll just slide right in,” he explained. He proceeded to show her what he meant.

  He kissed her as his hands stroked her silken skin. He kissed down her throat and bit her again just to ensure she was relaxed and open to him. He kissed down her chest and latched on to a berry colored nipple and tugged on it hard. He rolled his tongue around it and nibbled lightly with his teeth as she moaned her enjoyment. He switched to the other one giving it the same treatment. He slid his hands down to her thighs and they felt slippery. He slid in one finger starting slowly before finger fucking her enthusiastically. He added a finger and kept working her as he kissed down to her belly button which he laved with his tongue. She squirmed against him and he was excited by it.

  He continued to kiss down her body until his face was between her thighs. He kissed her there then breathed in the earthy feminine smell that made his cock ache. He found her pleasure button and sucked it into his mouth making her stiffen and groan. He let it go and licked it with his tongue whirling and pressing against it. He pulled back his finger and tongue fucked her a bit then used his fingers again as he bedeviled her little button wanting her to climax so he could slurp up some of her sweet delightful joy juice. His mouth watered at the thought and he renewed his efforts to obtain some. Nettie thrashed about and screamed as her honey flooded over his tongue. Delicious!

  She was still in the throes of an intense orgasm when he slid up her body and in one powerful thrust joined them. Oh, sweet Nettie! He’d never felt anything so incredible and a sense of wholeness encircled him. Did she feel it too? He’d never felt so enraptured in his life. He started moving faster and faster until he was slamming into her. The tension built and he could tell she was close. Just a little more and she would go over the edge and he would go with her. He lid his hand between them reaching down to her nubbin and pinched it.

  She screamed out her bliss as her body clutched and seized around his. He yelled her name as wave after wave of pleasure crested and washed over him. He was so euphoric that he couldn’t think and only felt. He rolled to his side and they both lay on their backs struggling for breath and feeling their hearts pound out of control. Once they calmed, he moved to her needing her in his arms. He needed the touch of her skin and the warmth of her body to make everything right in his world. They fell asleep together, as he intended them to always do from now on.

  He felt her against him and he wondered if this was a realistic dream as he slowly woke. His mind was still a tad fuzzy but his body felt marvelous. He breathed deeply, yes that was his Nettie. She moaned in her sleep and snuggled deeper into him. He liked it and he could get use to waking up to her every morning. In fact, he insisted on it. He struggled to decide if he should just lay here and while away the day in leisurely enjoyment, or if there was some reason he
should get up that he wasn’t remembering.

  Well if you can’t remember, just forget it, right? He curled even farther around his mate and settled back to sleep. He woke up again, but there was a reason. What was that smell? Coffee? He decided to get up and left Nettie, who would be adjusting to mating changes brought on by his venom, to sleep some more. He pulled on some lounge pants because he didn’t intend to go anywhere today, and headed out to the kitchen.

  Julie! He couldn’t believe he’d forgotten about her being left on her own. “I see you found the coffee,” he observed.

  “Yeah, it wasn’t hard to find. So, you and Nettie?”

  “Looks like it.”

  “You care about her?”

  Afrod smiled. “She’s fantastic. I’ve never known anyone like her. Well, I mean you kinda like her, but you two are different too.”

  “Hey, I knew what you meant. I just want her to be happy and loved. She deserves the best of everything.”

  “I know and I want her to have that.”

  “So have you heard anything about Apis?”

  “No, but I can check.” He ran back to the bedroom where Nettie was stretched out on the bed asleep and he grabbed his radio from the nightstand. He went back to the kitchen and sat down at the table.

  “Hercules?”

  “No, this is Eros. Hercules won’t be on until next shift.”

  “Have you had an update on Apis, yet?”

  “Sure, he’s just boarded the plane but it’s not taken off yet. He’s responding well to treatment. Looks like he’ll be fine.”

  “Thank God!” Julie breathed. “

  “Thanks Eros, catch you later.”

  “No problem.”

  “He’ll be here in a day or so if they don’t have any layovers.”

  “Do you guys even have those?”

  “I don’t know who is bringing him. Sometimes we contract a plane for a single use,” he explained. “We’ll know when he gets closer.”

  She seemed reassured and she went back to the task of cooking breakfast. They had a small but well-appointed kitchen and it seemed someone had gone to the trouble of stocking the refrigerator and the cabinets. He yawned and thought of the gorgeous female still sleeping in bed. He didn’t usually lie around in bed all day, but he was sorely tempted to do just that.

  “I’m going to go check on Nettie,” he said with a wink and a grin that made Julie flush. He chuckled, she was so innocent. He turned and walked to the bedroom.

  His intentions had been to wake his lovely lately but she looked so adorable, maybe just a kiss like sleeping beauty? He slipped into bed next to her and leaned over her. So lovely, he couldn’t resist ad he gently kissed her. She seemed to wake and her arms came up and around him clinging to him with all her might. He gave himself to her and he began to show her his love. He kissed her, plundering her lips and sinking his tongue on her mouth exploring her inner secrets.

  He moved to her neck and the temptation was too great, he bit her again dosing her with his venom. He’d never been tempted before to share his bite with a female. She relaxed and it would increase her enjoyment and that was all he wanted. He moved to her breast and he gave them his full attention. He sucked her pretty nipples until their color deepened and she squirmed beneath him begging for more. She was gorgeous with her face flushed with passion and her body responding to his slightest touch.

  He moved his hand down to her sex and found her drenched, ready, and oh so needy. He positioned himself on top of her and rolled them over. This time he wanted her to take him. “Ride me, Nettie,” he whispered hoarsely his voice filled with passion and his eyes glowing with emotion.

  She grabbed his hard and sensitive cock in her hand and he groaned with need. She rose up above him and guided him into her hot, wet, and waiting center. She slid down his shaft and he almost came just form the exquisite feeling of her wet sheathe grasping him as she moved all the way down his length until he was firmly entrenched deep within her. She paused, clearly enjoying the feel of their joining and she made whimpering noises that drove him wild.

  She started riding him, sitting astride him her head thrown back and her face aglow with need. She rode him like a rented mule, faster and faster until she rocked and rolled holding nothing back. Her explosion was near, he held himself back just waiting for her to claim her pleasure first. Her body started to tighten and it was all he could do to tamp down his climax. She froze, just a moment and then she was a wild thing riding his cock as if she intended to tear it off.

  He could hold back no more and he bucked and bowed, the need to fill her with his seed was overwhelming. Mine! Yes, Nettie was his and he would claim her. It was all he could think about as he rode out the aftershocks of his most excellent orgasm. When their bodies quieted, he pulled her into his arms for the talk he dreaded.

  “I love you, Nettie,” he whispered.

  She looked at him as if unsure how to answer. “I care about you, too,” she said softly.

  “I don’t expect professions of undying love. I know humans are different. I just have some things I have to tell you and I want you to understand how I feel about you,”

  She looked serious now as if she understood this would change her life. “Go on,” she encouraged.

  “There are differences we gods have that you might not know that come out during mating,” he paused to make sure she followed.

  She smiled. “You mean like the way you like to bite me? I never thought I’d get into that kind of thing but it makes me feel so good.”

  “That’s one thing. I release a venom but only when I bite my chosen mate. I’ve never bitten anyone else before. I’ve never wanted to.”

  “I’m getting a sense that I may not like the rest of what you’re going to tell me,” she whispered and her attitude was serious now.

  “If we go through the whole mating, you’ll change. You’ll develop some god characteristics if you take in enough of my venom.”

  “Have I taken enough in? You should of told me before you bit me,” she snapped angrily.

  He thought she was even more beautiful angry but he wasn’t going to enjoy dealing with her like this. It occurred to him that he could lose her and fear was like a spinning blade in his stomach eating at his insides. He wasn’t the serious type and he wasn’t any good at this. He wished he could tell a joke and diffuse the tension but he knew she wouldn’t be laughing.

  “I don’t think you’ve had enough to make any changes. I also need to tell you, and you need to know this can’t be repeated. We can have children but only with our fated mates.”

  “I can get pregnant from sex with you?” she croaked her voice rough as sandpaper.

  “Yes, it’s possible. Don’t you want to have my child?” he asked hurt evident in his voice and his demeanor.

  “That’s not the point damn it! You should have told me before we ever had sex,” she stated. “I need to be alone to think about this.”

  He nodded and left the room. He joined Julie and ate breakfast but even though she tried to engage him in conversation, he had nothing to say.

  “First fight?” Julie asked.

  “Yeah, and it was a bad one. I told her some things she didn’t like and she’s mad because I didn’t tell her before,” he explained.

  “She really cares about you. More than she’s ever cared about any guy before.”

  He hoped Julie was right as he thought back on that conversation Nettie had froze him out for days now and nothing seemed to warm her up. Apis came home and they went to see him. He looked almost like his old self. Things would be fine if Nettie would just talk to him. He missed her in all ways, physically, emotionally, and mentally. She was his but it didn’t look like she wanted to be. He was giving her time hoping she would come to him.

  He sat in the living room a few days later about as sad as a god could be. He was certain he’d lost her for good. He felt like screaming, crying, or maybe going to the gym and finding a good fight because either
beating the shit out of someone or getting it beat out of him was sounding good. He was ready to leave when he felt a weight settle next to him on the couch. He’d been so immersed in self-pity that he hadn’t noticed Nettie come into the room.

  “I’ve missed you,” she admitted haltingly.

  “I’ve missed you too,” he said with feeling.

  “Let’s talk about this thing between us. I don’t think I can keep away from you. It just hurts too much,” she explained.

  He smiled and he kissed her. Life was looking up!

  Epilogue

  Afrod slowly woke from a deep satisfying sleep. The kind of sleep a male has when he’s been satisfied without reservations by the female that he loves. Nettie, his mate, had finally accepted what they meant to each other. He could feel her satiny skin against him as she lay in his arms, naked just as he was. His body was humming with happiness but it was also coming awake to the fact that his mate was aroused. The female was insatiable, she was a perfect gift for a god.

  He rolled onto his back and pulled her on top of him. He grinned and whispered, “Have your wicked way with me, female.”

  She giggled as she wiggled around on top of him drawing interested jerks from his engorged cock. She sat astride him and leaned down to get her first kiss of the morning. Her lips teased his and he was tempted to roll them over and take control. He didn’t think she’d like that so he let her play and kept himself under the strictest of control. He moaned as she bit him lightly in the neck then laved the spot with her tongue. His hips surged up involuntarily searching for the wet heat above him.

  “Naughty, naughty! I’m in charge this time, Baby,” Nettie whispered.

  “Please Honey, don’t torment me so. I need you so much,” Afrod groaned.

  “Mm, you feel so good. I might cum just from listening to you talk.”

  “Just cum all over me, Nettie. I love the taste and the scent when you do.” He moved his hand to her pussy and slid along the crease until he dipped inside. He moved his finger to her nubbin and worried it. He lightly pinched and pulled as she moaned, arched, and squirmed against his hand until she screamed his name and he felt dampness flood against him. Her breathing came in pants as she tried to recover from her monster orgasm and he grinned with pride for making her lose control. He wanted nothing more right now than to impale her upon his ready cock. It was so engorged he fear it would explode without some relief.
