Page 38 of A Song of Death and Desire

I hold her in submission by her hair and squeeze her breast firmly. I run my fingers over her nipple, tweaking and pinching and notice the way her whimpers and moans increase as I do so.

“More, more, more,” she pleads as I keep up my relentless pace. My hands claw at any available bit of skin I can reach, fingers digging in so hard that they are sure to leave marks.

“You’re so desperate for me. Do you love my cock inside you? Do you feel full?”

“So full,” she whimpers. I’m frenzied, drowning in my lust and unable to conjure a single fuck about who might be listening in right now. All that matters is our pleasure.

“I’m coming,” she whimpers at the same time as I feel myself racing toward my release.

“I want to feel your cunt squeeze around me, vicious one. I want you to give me everything.” I raise a hand and slap it against her ass cheek. Hard. The sound of it hitting her skin rings through the air. With the impact she shatters completely, letting out a scream that mingles with my gravelly groan as I join her in release.

Her arms give way, and she collapses forward onto the bathroom counter. Still inside her, I slump over her, resting against her back and planting a soft kiss there. Our breaths are ragged, and our chests move in time with each other.

I reluctantly pull out of her and dispose of the condom in a nearby trash can. A few moments later, she stands up straight, and I smirk as I take in her freshly fucked appearance. After pulling up my pants I help Kairi freshen up. I gently rearrange her dress, softly massaging the pink that marks her skin from my hand. She fixes up her smudged makeup and runs her fingers through her hair, but there is no way our friends won’t know what we’ve been up to, and I find that I don’t really care what they think about it.

We leave the bathroom, and I note the slight tinge of pink that flushes Kairi’s cheeks as she avoids eye contact with the other women in the hallway. I walk behind her as she leads us back to our booth where the rest of our group are talking.

At the sight of us they all stop mid-conversation to stare. Sienna gives us a knowing smile while Tom winks. Lacey, obviously filled in by Tom, just grins.

“Where have you two been? You look awfully sweaty. I guess… dancing… will do that to you?” Sienna chuckles and I smirk ather. I glance over at Kairi and see that although she appears to be a little uncomfortable with the attention we are getting, she doesn’t shy away.

“You’re right! Eagan is a great… dancer,” Kairi retorts, causing Tom to choke on his drink and Lacey to pound on his back. God damn I love how she is able to go head-to-head with my friends, refusing to be intimidated.

Lacey encourages Kairi to shuffle in next to her and Tom and they quickly become immersed in conversation. I’m a little wary that Kairi may give something away to indicate her history, especially with the couple of drinks she’s had tonight, but so far so good.

Sienna beckons me to sit next to her and I’m certain she is going to give me the third degree about Kairi. Better to get it over and done with.

“Things seem to be going well with Kairi,” she comments. I “hmm” in response but I should know that is not enough of an answer for her.

“Oh, come on E! Is that all you’re going to give me? Are you together now? You’re already living together.”

“Look, it’s a bit more complicated than you think. We aren’t together, we’re just having a bit of fun.” Now it’s Sienna’s turn to reply with a hmm as she raises her eyebrows at me.

“If that’s all you think is happening, then I’m concerned about your lack of self-awareness,” she laughs, and I glare at her. “Okay, okay. I’ll drop it for now. But I will say that it’s clear to everyone, but you, it seems, that there is a lot more than ‘just fun’ between you two…”

“What’s going on with you then Enna? I saw you getting all up and personal with the girl on the dance floor. Are you going to make a move? When do you go back home?” I interrupt, eager to move the conversation on from my complicated kind of relationship with Kairi.

Sienna looks down at her hands resting in her lap, the smile and humor leaving her face.

“Well, here’s the thing, I’m actually not going back,” she says as she raises her eyes to meet my confused gaze.

“What do you mean? You have to go back, what about work?

“I’ve decided to take a sabbatical. While I’ve been in Witches Cove, I’ve been looking for a place to rent, and I’ve found one. I’m going to be living here for a while so I can work out my next steps.”

I’m filled with concern at the fact she hasn’t mentioned a word of this before now. As far as I know she enjoys her job and has a good life in Blackwood. “What brought this on?” I ask.

She sighs and runs a hand across her face. “Things have been…hard lately. I was dating someone, and she broke my heart, and then things at work are a mess at the moment. And then everything that happened with you. I should have been here. It’s just the two of us and we promised to always be there for each other. You were here going through something awful, and I couldn’t come and support you because my employers are assholes.”

She’s right. Growing up with a dead mom and an absent dad meant that we had to rely on each other far more than was fair. We never had the sibling rivalry that I saw among my friends and their siblings. I think we knew that we didn’t have anyone else in our corner, so things were much better if we worked as a team. I haven’t liked living in separate towns these past years, so part of me is glad that she’s moving here, but I hate that she’s been having such a hard time.

I try to suppress the strong flash of bitterness that hits me when I remember that the reason I wasn’t aware of my sister's struggles is sitting right opposite me. If I weren’t so consumed with my obsession then I would have been there for her. Everytime I start to forget, there is another reminder about Kairi’s past.

I wrap an arm around Sienna’s shoulders pulling her into my side a little more. “I’m so sorry that I didn’t know that things are hard for you right now, Enna. And I’m even more sorry that you must have felt like you couldn’t speak to me about all of this before now.”

She jabs me in the ribs with her elbow causing me to squirm out of her reach. “Oi! None of that. We have both been struggling. I didn’t tell you about my sabbatical because it’s only just been finalized, and I wasn’t a hundred percent certain that’s what I wanted to do. Being back here has made me realize how much I’ve missed you and I want to be a bigger part of your life. Especially to help you stop being an ignorant fool when it comes to Kairi,” she sniggers trying to elbow me once more.

Her comment momentarily throws me into deep thought. It’s clear that Sienna likes Kairi and she’s made it well known that she wants and expects us to end up together. But she doesn’t know Kairi’s true nature like I do. Would that change her opinion? Sienna sometimes has trouble making friends and I don’t want her to be hurt when she finds out we have been lying to her. This is just one more thing to feel guilty about. I’m so sick of that emotion.
