Previously, on Around the Block (Part 2)...

When she could tell that Lirha was finished, Amaranai climbed onto the bed and lay next to the green-skinned woman, moving her hands across Lirha's abdomen and breasts for a moment before rolling onto her back, silently letting Lirha know it was her turn.

And Now, the Conclusion...

[ON]

The Orion rolled her head to look over at Amaranai with glazed green eyes and a weak smile. She didn't say as word, and instinctively knew what the woman wanted. What she needed. Lirha turned herself on her side then crawled on top of Amaranai, settling her hips in between the woman's legs while she looked down at her. She leaned her head down and began to kiss the junior officer, deeply and passionately. Her tongue ran gently across her lips and slipped into her mouth where it lapped against Amaranai's. She could taste her own juices which gave rise to a second wave of arousal.

A green hand reached down to caress Franklin's side. It ran across the smooth skin along her ribs, then down to her waist and settled on her thigh. Lirha's fingers could feel the toned muscles in her leg, one of the sure signs of a security officer who kept herself fit and in shape. She broke off the kiss only momentarily to lick Amaranai's chin clean, then turned her attention down to her bosom. Trailing her tongue down between her cleavage, Lirha kissed the top of one of her breasts then took the pert nipple into her mouth. She licked and flicked it with her tongue before giving a soft, teasing bite, after which she started to suck firmly on the sensitive bud of flesh.

The sensation of Lirha's lips on her mouth along with her own juices increased Amaranai's arousal. It deepened as Lirha continued down her body. As the woman began to nibble on her breasts, Amaranai could feel the wetness between her legs. She let out a soft moan to indicate that she liked what Lirha was doing.

Lirha tugged on the nipple with her teeth and pulled it up as far as it would go before she released it with a wet slop. Then her head descended down Franklin's body, to her stomach, and then to her waist while she returned the favor with damp kisses. She paused to adjust herself and scoot down lower until her head was in line with Amaranai's slim hips. Lirha looked down at the neatly-trimmed dark brown hairs between her thighs while taking notice of the damp sheen that coated her lips. The Orion -- always with a keen sense of smell -- savored her new partner's distinctive scent for a moment before lowering her head. She reached up to push her own damp hair back behind her head and remove any obstruction, then wrapped her arms around each of Amaranai's thighs to get a good grip on her.

Taking a deep breath, Lirha extended her tongue to the bottom of Amaranai's lips and slowly traced it upwards. Each contour and stubble of hair tasted wonderful, and when she reached the most sensitive area at the top of the folds, she took the aroused button in between her lips and started to suckle on it.

Lirha knew what she was doing, that was evident to Amaranai. The sensations that stretched across her body were slow and erotic. Amaranai could feel the lips of the Orion touching every part of her and when they reached her button, Amaranai buckled with pleasure. She let out a much louder moan and began to move her hips in conjunction with Lirha to increase the pleasure.

Now consumed with thoughts of passion, Lirha continued to suck on the hardened and exposed nub, only pausing briefly to allow her tongue to continue to lick slowly and deliberately along the length of Amaranai's sex. When she noticed Franklin's hips moving, she tightened her grip on the Human's upper thighs in order to keep her in place. Lirha closed her eyes and let out a content, muffled moan, then plunged her tongue deep inside her partner. The slippery and warm texture of her insides was most delightful, prompting Lirha to take her sweet time to explore every centimeter of the tight crevice.

Amaranai felt the pull of Lirha's hands on her legs, only prompting the brunette to increase her movement of her hips in conjunction with the Orion's tongue. This increased Amaranai's pleasure as well. Hearing the moan from the woman gave Amaranai joy because she had not been able to please a woman - or be pleased by one - in quite some time and remembered just how much she enjoyed it.

The tongue slipping inside her was almost enough to send Amaranai over the edge and after just a few short minutes, her back bucked and she came, spilling her juices into Lirha's mouth and onto her face. She panted hard for several moments but reached her hands down and held Lirha in place.

"More," she whispered between breaths.

The Orion gasped and coughed when she felt a squirt of Franklin's essence suddenly stream into the back of her throat. The sticky fluid begin to coat her tongue and seep out of her mouth, down to the bottom of her chin and onto the bed's sheets. Amaranai had come quickly, and being caught off guard, Lirha did her best to swallow before eventually pulling back ever so slightly in order to turn her head to the side for a breath of fresh air. Her cheeks and the bridge of her nose soon became soaked with her partners' fluids while she rested the side of her face in between Franklin's legs. Then, with sudden surprise, she felt the security officer take a firm hold of the back of her head and press her face back into her loins and whisper for her to continue.

With a muffled whimper of submissive pleasure, Lirha delved back in between Amaranai's folds with her tongue. While she continued to lick and suck on the pink flesh, she reached up with both of her green hands to stroke Franklin's smooth, taut stomach. Beneath her fingertips, she could feel the woman's firm and toned muscles still subtly contracting from her previous orgasm. Lirha ran the palms of her hands across her abdomen for many long moments, then stretched her arms out further to reach her breasts. Cupping one in each hand, she started to squeeze and fondle the firm mounds while letting her fingertips play over Amaranai's nipples.

Amaranai was pleased that Lirha was willing to continue pleasing the brunette without a real pause. Amaranai felt the hands of the Orion moving up her body, caressing her belly and eventually her breasts. Despite having just had an orgasm, her body was ready for more and it didn't take very long of Lirha's tongue massaging her inner most places for it to happen again. She arched her back and came once again and began to pant even harder than before. Her body was twitching as it slowly calmed down from the sensations it had experienced.

Hooking her feet around Lirha, she pulled the woman up to her and wrapped her legs around her waist. Amaranai reached a hand around Lirha's neck and pulled her into a passionate kiss.

Time seemed to slow down to a glacial pace while the two of them exchanged deep and intense kisses. Lirha slipped a hand up to cup the side of Amaranai's face while another slid down to caress her thigh. Two, three, perhaps five full minutes passed while they held each other in a post-coital embrace, until the Orion had to take a pause to swallow and catch her breath. Her head swam with thoughts of longing and affection for the younger woman beneath her -- the feeling of her warm and sticky body, her flushed cheeks and chest, and the heavy scent of sex in the air all combined to bring Lirha into a most placid state of mind.

With eyes half open, she looked down at Amaranai while tracing a sharp fingernail delicately across her cheek in order to push a stray lock of her hair back behind her ear. Then she leaned down and gently kissed the light patch of freckles on the bridge of the woman's nose. "...Have I made you feel better?" she whispered with a small, private smile.

It had been a long time since Amaranai had felt so secure in the arms of anyone. But there was something about being in Lirha's arms that soothed her body and made her feel safe. Her lips were chapped from the long moments of kissing but she didn't care. Her arms were wrapped around the green-skinned woman, slowly tracing lines across her body. The question came in the form of a whisper and Amaranai smiled.

"Better than I have in a long time," she said, her own voice quiet. "Thank you."

Amaranai was unsure of what to do next but wanted to simply stay in bed with Lirha for the rest of the mission. But she knew that wasn't possible.

Lirha grinned then laughed lightly before kissing Amaranai's forehead, and then her lips. "Do not thank me... I think we both needed a release," she said. Tilting her head to the side with curiosity while continuing to appraise her new lover, she began to wonder how deep Franklin's feelings ran. Or if they matched her own. Maybe their encounter had been purely situational, the result of a terribly stressful series of events that had brought them both together. Maybe what the Orion really wanted while she looked down at her Human partner was instead the truth. "But," she paused, "I wish for your company. Very often," she revealed. "Would you like that?"

As Amaranai lay there, naked with her commanding officer, she listened as Lirha mentioned both needing a release. It was true and regardless of how it happened or with whom, Amaranai was glad that it had happened. She had met with the general what seemed like so long ago and was immediately taken with her beauty. She heard what Lirha said and then looked at her, blankly. It was a question that she had not expected. She thought this was simply a one time thing and that was it. But Lirha basically asked her to be a lover, at least for the time being.

"Really?" she said. "I don't know what to say." She paused. "I mean, yes. I would like that a lot."

Letting out a silent sigh of content, Lirha rested her forehead against Amaranai's. "Am I the first Orion you have been with?" Lirha asked, wondering if she knew what she'd just agreed to.

Amaranai could tell that Lirha was almost relieved when she answered in the affirmative, but it was the follow up question that caught Amaranai off guard.

"Yes," she said. "I've been with different people, but all have been human."

Humans. Lirha enjoyed their company and, having been raised on Earth during most of her teenage years before attending Starfleet Academy, knew them quite well. Most of them tended to not be as physically strong as her own kind, and many showed a lack of concern for material goods and social status. But despite their flaws, they were strong diplomats and genuinely meant well. Orions tended to keep to their own devices but Lirha had been one of the few exceptions -- a green-skinned young woman with a passion for sailing the stars. Culturally, however, she was still unique, and her adoption of Human culture had never replaced her physical or emotional differences.

"I can be aggressive at times," she started to explain, "and very...'enthusiastic' in bed," she grinned. "And I don't sleep through a full night such as your people do." Orion sleep patterns were based on smaller but more numerous sleep intervals, which meant Lirha was often awake at odd times of the night. Combined with her sexual appetite, it would mean Amaranai would probably be romanced at random hours of the day.

The many sexual partners of Amaranai Franklin wouldn't be a large novel, but it would be a good story, to say the least. She had been sexually active since her teens with men and women, both older and younger and she had not loved any of them. There had been two loves in her life - one male and one female - and it was only the female that Amaranai regretted breaking things off with. What this was with Lirha, Amaranai wasn't sure. It was lust for certain, and Lirha's desire to continue the relationship was definitely a positive but the brunette wasn't sure how long or how far it would progress.

Listening to the Orion speak about her agressiveness in bed intrigued Amarnai more and she could feel wetness between her legs just thinking about the possibilities. She chuckled at the comment about not sleeping much.

"No worries there," she said. "It's been a long time since I slept through the night."

"Hopefully not without a partner?" Lirha wondered out loud and with concern, now stroking the side of Franklin's face. The poor soul. All the security officers she'd ever known were wound tightly for some reason, and she hoped Amaranai hadn't been left on her own too long if at all. She gave a kiss to the woman's earlobe, after which a sudden flash of recent memories invaded her thoughts.

Amaranai didn't mention the fact that she had not had anyone in her bed for a long time. She was tired and lonely but that was how it had to be at the moment. She had been with someone before her transfer but felt the need to break it off before leaving.

The Orion instantly recalled her encounters with Miraj. From their two awkward encounters in this same quarters, to the turbolift where they'd been momentarily stranded together -- Lirha remembered every line of dialogue they'd shared, including both her profession to appease the ensign as well as the young woman's rejection of her offers. It had never felt right to Lirha, and she knew deep inside that she'd been consumed with an unknown desire for the Derani without giving it much thought. She didn't know what Miraj thought of her of if she even had an interest in her, but she knew that she had almost instantly fallen for Amaranai the moment she'd stepped into her shower. Derani, on the other hand, was young, naive, and reserved, which was the opposite of her own personality. And her advances upon her, while private in nature, tugged at her gut while she lay with Amaranai. It wasn't right to extend her hand of love to Franklin without first being honest.

"I need to tell you about Miraj," Lirha said with apprehension yet conviction. She sat up on her haunches in between Amaranai's hips and looked down at her. "I...approached her, several days ago. I was confused and upset, and...not myself," she began, her eyes drifting to the bed sheets. "I wanted to lay with her, but she refused me. But then she came to me and offered herself, but then suddenly left." Lirha didn't really know how to describe what'd happened between the two of them, mostly because she, herself, was confused.

"I don't want you to think I have chosen her over you, or that I am..." what was the Human term? Loose? "...'casual' with those I bring to my bed." Lirha looked into Amaranai's eyes with pained regret at her prior actions as well as a hope for understanding. "I never shared myself with her as I did with you, or smiled to each other while enjoying our warmth," she confessed.

Amaranai watched as Lirha sat on top of her and the connection felt good, but her demeanor was not that of creating more pleasure, it was that of honesty. The security officer already knew about some of the details because of her talk with Miraj but Amaranai found the honesty refreshing. She sat up, causing Lirha to sit back slightly and faced the woman. She wrapped her arms around her and kissed her lips softly.

"There is nothing to fear," she began. "Your life is your own and you are your own person." She paused as she kissed her lips again. "I will not think differently of you for previous actions or for future actions." Another kiss. "If we talk honestly, I will respect you and be with you."

Lirha looked back up into Amaranai's eyes and searched them for compassion and commitment. "It has been a very long time since anyone has said that to me," she quietly replied, giving Amaranai a genuine smile. "I am an admiral, after all. Was an admiral," she corrected. "Those around me usually stay away and just see me as an overseer. Not as a peer, or a friend. Certainly not a potential girlfriend," she tried to explain. "But you are different."

Amaranai smiled at her comment. "The highest ranking officer I've had was a captain," she said. "I'm not a perfect person or a perfect girlfriend, but I try and I would like to try with you."

She leaned in and kissed Lirha again before forcing the Orion onto the bed once again as her hips began to grind against Lirha while they kissed.

A happy smile spread across the Orion's gold lips before she closed her eyes to resume kissing her new lover. "When I promised us breakfast, I didn't realize that it would be you..." she said with a big grin accompanied by another surge of bedplay excitement twinging through her extremities.
