Lisa was the most willing of captives, yet it wasn’t Bennett’s arms that held her prisoner. It was love. Undying, unwavering, and immeasurable love, and as her pulse quickened and her blood heated, Lisa sighed. Gone were the thoughts of battles and blood, gone was the memory of an invasion that almost ended her life, and gone was the envy she had once had of another, and in its place was truth. Truth that love at first sight did exist. Truth that good things do come to those who bide their time, and truth that Lisa had found the love of her life no matter how long her life would be. Lisa knew she’d never want for more, yet at the moment, her body disagreed. A moan slipped from her lips when sensations, tingling and throbbing, spread throughout her body, and as she opened her stance, Lisa pushed her bottom into Bennett…and beckoned for more.
Bennett wasted not a second, and slipping her hand between Lisa’s legs, she rubbed and stroked folds, delicate and slick. Bennett leisurely explored the crevices and valleys soaked with Lisa’s desire, teasing and taunting the petal-smooth folds, and in no time at all, Lisa was undulating against Bennett’s hand.
A sensual rhythm had begun. Each probing caress was answered with an arch of hips, forceful and primal, and when Bennett finally tugged on a nipple, distended and hard, Lisa white-knuckled a nearby grab bar.
Lisa’s breathing quickly became shallow and fast. At her breast and between her legs, Bennett was unstoppable, and Lisa’s nectar was now dripping from her core. Again and again, the throbs from within pushed want from her body, and with each throb, Lisa’s movements became more frenzied. She was mad with love, mad with lust, and mad for every single thing Bennett was doing, and sounds of sensual pleasure spilled from Lisa’s lips…and then they became louder.
Bennett had yet to touch something now engorged and pulsing, and when she finally tended to it, Lisa’s uninhibited growl of satisfaction echoed in the shower. Bennett circled Lisa’s clit, teasing it and rubbing it and circling it slightly harder with each pass she made, and in unabashed abandon, Lisa bucked and writhed until the convulsive waves of her orgasm claimed her.
Lisa’s entire body shuddered, and clamping her legs around Bennett’s hand, she cried out as her climax ripped through her. Greedy, it gripped her, and greedily, it took her again and again, and unchecked, Lisa rode each sweet crashing wave until the very end.

They had barely taken the time to towel dry before they fell into bed. With a well-placed knee and a motion instinctual and fluid, Bennett moved against Lisa, taking her to nirvana within minutes, and when Lisa’s breathing finally quieted, Bennett couldn’t stop herself from making love to Lisa again.
