Creatures
Chapter 23

Karen woke to her alarm screeching and she reached up and shut it off with a groan. She had slept hard, but it still did not make it any easier to get up in the morning. Talon stretched his body and pulled her up against his chest without thinking, taking her mouth with his, pressing her body along the length of his as he ran his hand along her back and cupped her buttock in his palm.

He felt her struggle against him for a moment before slowly stilling beneath him as he plundered her mouth for a long moment before lifting his head.

“Good morning.”

Karen stared at him in astonishment as he grinned at her.

“I could not help myself.” He buried his head into her neck as he had the night before and nibbled on it gently, making sure not to leave any marks, waiting for her reaction to his bold attack. Last night she had asked him to stay and he was taking a chance that it meant she was starting to realize her own feelings.

“How long will you make me wait?” He asked seriously as he felt Karen’s body start to respond to him. “I love you, Karen.” He lifted his head to look her in the eyes. “I will marry you and we will eventually have a physical relationship.” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“I... I know.” Karen looked back at him and then away, unable to keep the contact between them. “I just... It is...I cannot...”

“I am not him,” Talon told her.

“I know that, but still... The things I did... What if...”

“Karen.” Talon lowered his head to hers and placed a lingering kiss on her lips before starting to trail kisses down her neck to the shallow part of the valley between her breasts, one hand caressing her buttock as the other twisted itself in her hair.

“Let me make love to you.” He murmured into her chest.

Karen could not stop her body from reacting and pressing closer to the part of his body that was responding the most to her. Her hands moved to his hair and in that moment she wanted nothing more than to have a physical relationship with him, damn the consequences. She was so tired of fighting her attraction to him. She realized that, if it was with him, she no longer feared the physical contact.

“Talon, I... I think...” She could feel his warm breath on her skin and she struggled to keep her thoughts in her head. “I think... I... I love you.” She whispered.

Talon’s movements froze for a second before he continued his exploration of the top of her breast that showed above her nightie before the hand that had been caressing her cheek moved up her hip and stomach to cup the other breast in his palm as his thumb flicked over her nipple, causing it to pucker and harden.

“Karen.” He murmured again.

Karen pushed up as his mouth came down to take her nipple into his mouth and he started to play with it with his tongue. His mouth was hot and his tongue ruthless as it hardened her nipple even more. Karen let out a moan and Talon answered with his own.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Talon let out a different groan and lifted himself from Karen’s warmth to shut off the alarm. “Come on, we had better hurry or we will be late.”

Karen stared up at him. What the hell? He stopped? She was confused. She thought he was...

“Come on love, we cannot miss work.” Talon pulled her up into his arms and placed a brutal kiss on her lips, pulling back only when oxygen became a necessity.

He had said that even when his body was screaming for him to forget work and go back to making love to her.

“We will continue this tonight, make no mistake about it. Now go shower. I will get our clothes together.”

Karen nodded and hurried to the bathroom, leaning against the door after she closed it, sagging against it. What had she done? Had she really just blurted that out? What was going to happen now? Duh, they were going to have sex now, that was what was going to happen. She pulled herself together and took a quick shower, wrapping a towel around her just as Talon came in.

“Good. I will get in the shower now, you go get dressed.”

Karen nodded and quickly put on the outfit that he had placed on the bed, grinning as she put it on. It was another Chinese cut outfit, only this one had pants underneath and was decorated with red flowers on a black with a gold under design. He had even gotten slippers to match.

She heard the water turn off and Talon stepped out a moment later. They finished getting ready in silence.

It was not until he had once again dropped her off at her classroom that he had leaned in and informed her how much he liked the outfit.

“I will pick you up at the end of the day. I have a meeting over lunch. Have a good day.” He placed a kiss on her cheek and was gone.

“Is Talon not eating with you today?” The English teacher asked at lunch. It had become a regular thing over the last two weeks to see him wander in and eat lunch with her.

Karen shook her head. “He had a meeting over lunch.”

“I see.” She continued to eat, but presently stopped and took Karen’s left hand in her own.

“What is this?”

Karen pulled her hand back and flushed. “Uh, nothing.”

“It is NOT nothing. Is that is an engagement ring? Are you two engaged?”

“What?” The P.E. teacher came over. “Did Talon propose? So soon?”

“Of course it is not soon. She has been here for almost eight months even if she has only been working here for a couple months of that time.” She turned to Karen. “So...”

Talon stood in the doorway unnoticed. What would she say? Would she deny it?

“Uh, yes.” Karen could not see any reason to lie. Besides, in the end, Talon was right. They would marry. They were to be together for the rest of their lives, so if she wanted a family, Talon was her only choice. “We are engaged.” Karen looked at her food. Even though she said it, she knew it was in name only. She may love him, but he would one day grow to regret having her as his partner and wife, she was sure of it.

“Congratulation hon. You two are so good together.”

“I agree.” The math teacher spoke up. “You have been wonderful for Talon. Congrats to both of you.”

“Uh, thank you.”

Talon smiled at her shy response to their congratulations and left. He was looking forward to tonight now more than ever.

Talon headed towards the music room after school. It had not taken long for their engagement to spread through the school after lunch and just about everyone had wanted to stop and congratulate him and talk about it. He had just smiled and bore with it, wanting to see Karen. He had had no idea that this was the way it would be when he finally fell in love, and although he was a bit scared about it, he was very happy that he was able to have this experience.

“Are you ready?” He asked as he entered her room.

Karen jumped and spun around. “Um, are you mad?”

He smiled and moved towards her. She was looking very good to him right now and he was losing ground with his control fast. They needed to find a bed soon.

“About what?”

“Well, about... you know... the engagement thing.” She mumbled, not looking at him. This was becoming a habit of hers that he needed to break.

“I couldn’t be happier.” He replied, putting an arm around her on the desk, pinning her there and leaning in.

“Wh-wha-what are you doing?”

“What do you think I am doing. I do not have any more control when I see you looking so sexy and now that you have accepted and returned my feelings...” He replied as he pushed her hair off her neck and started a slowly nibble up to her earlobe, pushing her back onto her desk.

“Wa-wait! You cannot do this.”

“Why not?” he asked as he continued his exploration of her jawline and then went to her other ear and gave it some attention as well.

“Because someone could walk in!” Karen exclaimed, trying to stop her body from reacting to his caresses. Hadn’t they done this before?

“Oh, that is right.” Talon stood up and moved towards the door as Karen let out a sigh. As much as she had enjoyed that just then, it was inappropriate conduct for school and they could lose their jobs over it.

Talon walked over and shut off her lights and locked the door before coming back. Karen had stood up and started to gather her things into her bag, preparing to leave. Talon spun her around and pushed her back onto her desk, parting her legs and stepping in between. Yup, they had done this before.

“Where do you think you are going? I told you that I have no more control.”

“Wait... Talon... What are you doing?”

“Relax. The door is locked and the lights are off. Everyone is gone for the weekend and as long as you are quiet no one will know that we are in here.” He grinned as he spoke, slipping a hand underneath her tunic and dipping into her pants. He slid his hand down to her heat and cupped the area in his palm. She was hot and wet and he groaned at just the thought of sinking into her willing flesh.

Karen let out a gasp as his palm rubbed her mound gently and she felt the first of his fingers caress the folds of her opening before slowly sinking into her heat. She leaned her head back, all energy to fight him gone in an instant. She could only feel pleasure as he unbuttoned her shirt, and popping on breast out of her bra, placed his mouth over her nipple to continue from where he had left off that morning.

His finger continued to push in and out, caressing her before sinking back in and stroking the inside of her canal as his other hand plunged through her hair, his mouth continuing to slowly explore her breast.

Karen could not breathe. In the past, she had been disgusted and turned off by this exact scenario, but with Talon, although there was still a sense of uneasiness, all thought left as she wrapped one arm around his waist and boldly placed her hand over his own erection, rubbing it gently through his pants. She was awarded with a groan from his lips.

“Damn it, woman, I do not have a whole lot of control right now. If you do too much, I will not be able to stop myself.”

Karen shut down the rest of her emotions, reverting back to what she had been taught, and throwing caution to the wind, whispered in his ear, “Then cum for me.” As she lowered the zipper of his pants and pulled him free. Her body easily remembering the movements she had been taught and she had a fleeting moment of disgust with herself for remembering them.

She ran a finger up the underside, over the tip and then down the top before placing her palm squarely over him and gently stroking up and down, rubbing her thumb over his tip and the ridge of the head between each stroke of her hand.

Talon forgot his own name for a moment as she stroked him up and down with a smooth motion. She was amazing and he was so close.

“Karen..”

“Come on, baby, just let it out.”

He continued his exploration of her breasts as he sunk two more fingers into her warmth and used his thumb to stimulate her as he pushed into her further and harder. They did not speak as they drove each other closer and closer to their perspective climaxes.

“I... I am close.” Karen breathed, arching against his hand as she felt the tightening of her muscles.

“I know, honey, I am too.”

“Come with me.” Karen pleaded.

“Do you want me in you now?”

“Yes.” Karen moaned. That was what the man wanted to hear, right?

As much as Talon wanted to sink deep into her, now was not the time and he told her so.

“Not yet, love, you have to wait. I want to take you on a bed the first time.”

“But...” Wait? That was not right. He should be taking off her pants and sinking into her right now, telling her how good she felt. Had she done something wrong just now?

Talon covered her mouth with his own, plundering his tongue deep into her mouth just as his fingers were doing to her and she could not stop it any longer. All doubts and worries disappeared as the spasms of her climax hit and her body tightened against his hand. She could feel his warm semen spill into her own hand, covering it with a sticky thickness.

Talon did not move for a few moments, letting their breathing return to normal before removing his hand from her heat. He grabbed a couple of tissues and handed them to her, before taking a few for himself.

“You had better clean up.” He commented as he wiped himself clean and tucked it back into his pants. Something was not right here, he could feel it. She had somehow disengaged her emotions in the last few minutes. In fact, her entire personality had changed. What was going on? What had he done wrong?

Karen flushed and wiped off her hand before reaching in and wiping up the wetness that had pooled between her thighs. At least she had managed an orgasm with him, not that she had doubted that part, but... She buried her thoughts deep inside as Talon spoke.

“Karen.” Talon stepped in front of her and took the hand that had been wrapped around him in his own. “Let’s go home.”

Karen could not look at him. She was so disgusted with herself right now. It seemed that her old self was not gone after all. What would she do when Talon found out?

“Uh.”

“Come on honey.” Talon gave her a smile as he kissed the palm that he had just cum in and pulled her towards the door.

“Wait.” She stopped as they went by the restroom.

She hurried into the ladies room and washed her hands thoroughly and then went into a stall and clean herself up a bit better before coming back out. Talon was leaning against the opposite wall, looking out the window when she came out.

He turned and gave her a smile. “Ready?”

“Yup.” He took her hand and headed for the car.

“Have a great weekend you two.” The P.E. teacher called out in the parking lot as Talon helped Karen into his car.

“You too,” Talon called as he climbed in and sped out of the parking lot, heading for the mansion.

What was going on with her? He may be hot to get her into bed right now, but he knew as he knew is own name, that she had not been with him completely back there in the classroom and it was not from the location. Even now, he could feel that she was hiding something from him and he did not like it one bit. He was going to find out what was wrong before they did anything else.

Karen watched the scenery go by. So, she still performed, even if she loved the person she was with. He would be pleased to know that his training was still effective. Karen tried to hide the self-hatred and sadness from Talon. She did not want to lose him just yet. Karen’s phone went off and she picked it up.

“Hello?”

“Hey Karen, it’s Emerald.”

“What is up hon?” Karen asked.

“Evan and I were invited over to a friends house for dinner and study for exams next week so we will be home late. Is that all right?”

“That is fine hon. Be careful and call if you need anything.”

“Thanks, Karen. You two have fun and we will see you in the morning.”

“Bye.”

“Bye.”

“What is up?” Talon asked when Karen hung up. He grabbed her hand, not wanting to let go of her and continued to drive.

“Nothing.” Karen looked out the window, quite conscious of his hand holding hers.

“They are eating with friends and studying for exams so they will be home late tonight.”

“Good.”

“Why?”

“Then there will be no interruptions.”

“For what?”

Talon chuckled. “Did you think I was done?”

Karen did not pretend to misunderstand. “Well, you did cum so I thought...” Karen continued to look out the window, unable to look at him. She could not believe that she was having this conversation with Talon right now.

“Honey, I have so much built up right now I could go for days.”

“Oh.” Karen flushed at his words.

Though her body was already becoming excited at the thought of spending the night in Talon’s arms and not just sleeping, Karen was still unsure about it all. She did not know how Talon would react to her after they were done. She... she was in way over her head right now. She wanted Talon, but she was afraid that she would scare him off with her ‘training’.

They arrived at the mansion and Talon dropped her off at the door before going and parking the car. He could feel her anxiety and her anticipation and he knew that she was worried. How could he make her see that she was safe with him? He knew that she had been in a bad relationship before, but he was not that man and she loved him... right?

Talon shook his doubts away. No, he would take all of her worries away tonight until she only could only think of him. The only thing was, now that he had her here, how should he proceed? He was hot and excited, but he did not want to scare her. He ran his hand through his hair, now what?
