“So, where are they” Prallus asked quietly as his bride, Hera’s mother, slipped quietly into the library.

Her pleased smirk shown through her features as she approached him, “They are on the Terrace. Jacob said something about a tradition of his own.”

“Oh? I thought Humans didn’t have a claiming.” Prallus quirked an eyebrow as Silia settled into her customary spot on his lap. She had always been a cuddly one.

“We will have to ask her after. You were magnificent, by the way.” She purred up at him, settling fully into her procured position. She perused his chosen reading material as a low chuckle rumbled from her mate.

“You played your part well. I think we gave them the appropriate amount of payback. Hera looked particularly distraught.” Prallus mused.

“She did, didn’t she. After all, we couldn’t let them off easy now, could we.” Silia smirked as she nipped her mate gently, triggering a shiver from him as he felt her through their bond.

“No, we couldn’t.” He rumbled, pulling her into a tighter embrace as he let his fingers begin to wander.

———————————————————

Hera was not where she expected to be at the moment. The rest of dinner had flown my at the speed of memory, and now she found herself on the balcony with Jacob… instead of someplace more private.

“Hera,” a soft voice drew her out of her own mind as Jake turned to her, “I want to show you something.” She gave him a confused expression as he pulled a small box from his pocket, “I have to thank your father for taking his time, or I would have never been able to ship this in time.” He opened the box, revealing shimmering clear gemstones inlayed into a gold-colored metallic band. “The band is sized to you, but the diamonds are a tradition.”

“We have diamonds here, we use them as focusing apertures for our ship-grade laser and deflectors.” Hera plucked the item from the box, looking over it carefully as it shimmered and sparkled in the moonlight. “These are, gorgeous… what are all these cuts for.” She handed it back to Jacob who had watched her inquisitiveness with a combination of an amused and adoring expression.

“Long before the stars revealed their bounty to us, Humans used diamonds as symbols. Symbols of wealth, symbols of power, and… symbols of love.”

Hera looked up at him in shock as the implication slammed into her, “These are from Sol.” She softly gasped.

“They are,” Jacob nodded, “the band is new, but these diamonds have been in my family for over 600 years. I told you I would claim you by my old ways.” Hera gasped as Jacob took the ring and slowly slid it onto the third finger of her left hand. It settled in perfectly as He spoke, “Hera, will you do me the honor… of becoming my wife.” Jacob whispered.

Hera stood stunned, feeling the weight of the ring on her finger. Her Jacob had claimed her, the human way. It awakened her senses as her mind roared to life the same way it had those months ago. She said nothing, but she gave her answer. Her mind fizzed and sparked as she pulled Jacob into a fierce kiss, and she felt Jacob shudder as her mind poured itself into his. Moments later, his mind responded, solidifying their link with a wild tidal impact of his own emotions. It was too much at first, and she felt Jake hold her as her knees buckled slightly.

“Whoa..” the expression escaped her as she recovered, basking in settling turmoil of a newly formed bond.

“That’s one hell of a yes.” Jacob’s voice rumbled through his chest. He felt his body move on its own as Hera took his hand and led him off the balcony, and back to their room. The hallway seemed to stretch forever, and Hera had to fight for control over her instincts until they crossed the threshold to the room they had shared for months.

She was not the only one, the instant the door sealed shut, she felt powerful hands wrap around her from behind, and she gasped as an explosion of primal desire ripped into her mind in coordination with those hands slipping beneath her clothing. Jacob’s lips met her neck as he began to kiss his way down to her shoulder.

Her body reacted to his touch, exploding with heat as one set of his fingers slipped between her thighs, and the others found her breasts. “Jacob?” She gasped as he explored her for a moment before his touch receded. She turned to face him, kissing him fiercely as she tugged aT his clothing. His belt finally relented as his pants fell, soon followed by hers as Jacob slipped her out of them before pulling her top up over her head.

She melted into him as they embraced, and she felt him push her gently towards their bed. Jacob gently supported her as he laid her down under him, never breaking from her kiss in the process.

Eventually they came up for air, and Hera could feel Jacob’s passion as he began exploring her body with little nips and kisses. He kissed his way down her chest, pausing to give each of her nipples a gentle sucking tease, before continuing. She felt his lips pass her belly button and continue down, making her shudder as he kissed the inside of one thigh then the other. “Jake, what are you… ooohhh” she had begun to realize where he was headed even as he began kissing back up her thighs towards her womanhood, but her thighs spread on their own as Jacob’s tongue teased her folds for the first time.

A whirlwind of satisfaction roared off of Jacob’s mind as Hera reacted to his touch. She couldn’t help but press her hips towards him as his lips and tongue did their work. Soon she was panting heavily as he finally eased away from her womanhood only to start kissing his way back up her shivering, gasping form.

“Jake..” she whispered as she dug her hands into his hair. He interrupted her thoughts again as he reached her nipples once again, choosing to give them detailed attention before answering.

“Yes?” His husky voice matched his emotions as he locked her in his gaze.

Hera moaned as she felt his manhood brush her sex as he hovered over her. She tried to speak, but was interrupted as he teased her again, rubbing the tip of his shaft along her folds, “yes?” He teased again.

Hera felt him lean in again, and she felt him shudder as she rolled her hips, slipping him between her folds and pressing his tip to her entrance. She felt him grunt as she worked his tip with her hips, and she wrapped her ankles around his back and squeezed.

Jacob let out a low moan as she pulled him into herself, being met with a shaking gasp of Hera’s own reaction as he disappeared inside her. Hera’s body reacted on its own, and her legs squeezed him tightly, not letting him retreat from her as she pulled his head to her breasts.

“Oh Gods…” she moaned, as Jacob gently kissed her shaking form.

She finally released his head, and he kissed his way up her neck until their lips met and tongues dueled. He could feel her emotions, which were as intoxicating as it was new and strange. “You ok?” He whispered between kisses.

“Better than.” She whispered back, slowly releasing her leg’s grip around his hips. She slowly started rolling her hips, feeling him stir inside her; and she smiled as she saw his eyes widen and his breath quicken. She could feel herself lighting a primal fire inside her Jacob, and she only nodded to him as he began to move his hips in time to hers. She could feel him studying her, letting her lead as they made love. She began to moan as his strokes became longer, and she began to nip and kiss Jacob on the neck, eliciting little grunts from him before she put a hand on his chest. He stopped instantly and let her push him off of her with a confused face that morphed into understanding as she guided him to his back.

Hera slowly slid her body atop his, kissing him all over as she slipped him between her thighs. “My turn.” She growled that possessive growl of hers as she began kissing her way down to his manhood. She could feel him watch her as she teased his tip, taking him into her mouth as she swirled her tongue around his manhood. She felt Jacob groan as she worked, and it made her work harder until she felt him swell in her mouth.

“Wait,” she paused, then looked up at him as he panted.

“Did I hurt you?” She asked. She had been careful to not nick him with her fangs, but..

“No, but if you kept going… I would… finish” Jacob admitted.

“Oh?” Hera smirked in satisfaction as she realized what she had felt from him, “we can’t have that now can we” she purred as she kissed her way back up his body, “not when I’m” she shuddered as she sank him into her womanhood once more, “not done with you yet” she moaned as she felt his shaft fill her again.

A flash of emotion crossed their bond, and Hera caught it as she watched Jacobs eyes wander as she settled onto him. He was watching her, and it was driving him crazy. The realization made her lean over and kiss him passionately before she sat back up, and gave him what he craved. She pulled her arms over her head, showing herself off for him even as she began to roll her hips against his.

She had finally gotten used to him, and she began stirring him around inside her as she rolled her body in time with her hips. Jacob’s eyes greedily took in her performance, and she felt his manhood swell inside her like it did in her mouth. This time she didn’t stop as she slowed down to keep him with her as his building climax fed her own.

Jacob began to grunt and moan loudly as she coaxed him slowly past his point of no return, and her performance falters slightly as her hips jerked from her own orgasm. She fell forward as her climax peaked, grabbing fistfuls of hair as a feral moaning cry ripped itself from her soul. Her forehead pressed against his as her hips began to buck on their own, and Jacob responded. She felt a burning heat spread as Jacob exploded inside her; and a second orgasm roared through her body as her Jacob began bucking under her as he emptied himself into her.

Jacob’s breath was ragged as Hera collapsed on top of him. She seemed to melt into him as she soaked up his body heat, and he pulled the blankets over the two of them. He chuckled as Hera wiggled down a little into their nest, letting out a long contented “hmmmm” as the two of them drifted off.

————————————————-

Several hours later, Hera awoke in a familiar heavenly warmth, but this time a flicker of amusement reached into her mind as Jacob watched her stir. “Good morning,” he whispered as he traced little patterns into her mane with his finger. He smirked as he watched and felt her respond to his touch.

Hera found herself tilting the ring on her finger into the light, watching the diamonds dance in the early morning sunlight. The shimmering refractions fluttered as she watched. To the rest of the galaxy, Diamonds were industrial tools, used to manufacturing or for high end energy weapons and shielding; but Hera treasures these diamonds. These were symbols.

Her wonder was interrupted by Jacob’s touch, slipping his fingers between her legs, eliciting a gasp as a pair of them disappeared into her core. Jacob had his thumb playing gentle circles around her bud, while his fingers swirled inside her.

“Jacob, oh gods… we just woke uuuhhhhhhh mmmmm” she faltered as his lips found hers. His kiss was deep and passionate, even as Hera discovered the magic of his touch drawing her to climax in moments. Her shuddering hips bucked against his hand until he released her. “What was.. amazing. Hmmm…” she coo’d, completely at his mercy as he shifted out from under her, and she watched him take to his knees behind her, lifting her hips to meet his.

She followed his hands until she was on her knees, face still on the pillows; and she moaned loudly as her Jacob slid smoothly into her. He didn’t wait to let her get used to him this time. Instead, his smooth strokes began instantly as he took her from behind.

Hera’s tail wrapped instinctively around Jacob’s waist, pulling at him as she bucked into him. Pulling him towards her with her tail caused her to flex her womanhood around his shaft and she felt the explosive grunt as much as heard it. She did it again, intentionally this time feeling him pause; and she could feel him struggle to hold back. “Don’t you dare,” she moaned loudly, flexing on him as tightly as she could.

It broke his control, and Jacob began pounding into her. Hera cried out with every thrust, squeezing him with everything she had. He wrapped his hands about her hips, holding her in place as he ravaged her, but she kept up with him. She felt him begin to climax, and she slammed him deep into herself with her tail and held him there, bucking her hips as he poured himself into her. She kept stirring him inside her, drawing little sputters and shakes as she pulled everything from him.; and she followed him down as he sank to his heels. She refused to let him fall out of her as she sat down on his lap, arching her back until her lips met his and his arms wrapped around her.

“Where did you…” Jacob asked, unable.

, and in wanting to escape her touch.

“The bond….” She purred, pouring her desire into his mind and smiling as she felt him grow inside her almost instantly. “You can’t.. hmmmmmm…. Hide anything” she coo’d as she began to roll her hips again, “from me, oooooh”

She had him at her mercy, and she held him there, stirring him deep into her as she flaunted her Delmar flexibility. She kept her lips on his, giving his hand free range over her body as she slowly ground into him. The two bathed in each other’s pleasure for a small eternity until Hera pulled another Climax from her Jacob. Exhaustion finally felled them, leaving them entangled upon each other as sleep claimed them once more.

It was almost midday meal when they stirred from their nest.
