Gaia's Champion Ch. 25

"On my day off, I'm allowed to ignore a few phone calls. What's got you so riled up?" she asked.

"We finally caught a break!"

"What? How? When??" Meera asked, her mood perking up instantly.

"May I come in? Unless you want the whole neighborhood to hear the details of the case we're working on," Konstantin smirked.

Meera then stood aside and let the man walk in. He took off his shoes and let Meera lead the way to the living room, which was clean and tastefully decorated. The man let himself appreciate the woman's taste and style before seating himself on her couch. Producing the tape recorder, he hit the play button, and she listened. Her eyes widened when she heard Luke and his friends speak to Randy, and a smile graced her lips.

"Of all the things that I thought harebrained and stupid! I never thought it would turn out a solid lead!" the woman laughed, joy lighting up her face.

"Sometimes, my ideas are shit, but now and then, they pay off," Konstantin admitted with a smug smirk.

"Damn right they do!" Meera enthused as she leaned into the man and kissed him. She had meant to kiss the man on the cheek, but his head turned at the last second and her kiss caught him on the lips. The moment she felt his lips on hers, her eyes widened at what had happened and she pulled away, as though she was electrocuted.

"I... ummm... ahhh..." Meera stuttered, blushing so hard, she would have made a tomato envious.

"That... was... unexpected. But... not unwelcome," Thermopolous admitted, looking Meera in the eyes.

"But I overstepped! I didn't mean to... that is... I'm trying to say..." Sadeghi blurted, trying to find the right words.

"Meera, shush," Konstantin told her, as he shuffled close to her and leaned in.

"But... the case..."

"Can wait a few minutes," he told her as he pressed his lips to hers and gave the woman a proper kiss.

Meera was stiff for a moment, before she relaxed, feeling the heady rush of endorphins flood her system. She melted into the kiss and kissed Konstantin back, making it clear that she wanted this as much as he did. Meera felt a profound loss once he backed away, already hooked on the man. She wanted, no needed, more and sucked in some air to her lungs, so she could stop herself from fainting.

"Did you want me to stop? If this is too much, we can stop right now," he told the woman.

"If I wanted you to stop, I would have told you so. Now, put those lips of yours to good use!" she demanded as she grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him to her.

Konstantin was floored by her directness, but he wasn't going to complain. Not when the woman he'd always had a thing for had just told him to keep going! Wrapping his arms around the woman, he pulled her close as she slithered onto his lap. He groaned as he could feel her womanhood grinding into his rapidly stiffening dick. He moved his hands down to her ass and gripped it tightly as he stood up.

"What the—Konstantin!" Meera yelped.

"Not going to have you on the couch. Not yet, at any rate! Bedroom?" he asked.

"Second floor, last one on the right. I can walk, you know!" she told him indignantly.

"Nope! I'm carrying you up those steps! I have a good reason to think that you like being in this position," he chuckled as he held her tightly enough to where his dick was constantly grinding into her.

Meera found she couldn't argue and let him do this. She found that his manly display of strength was more of a turn on than she was willing to admit. He clambered up the steps with little issue and walked to the room she told him to. She reached out and opened the door, making it easy for him. Once they entered, he kicked the door shut and resumed kissing the woman as he placed her beneath him on the bed.

"Wait, wait, wait. Don't you have kids?" Konstantin asked, mortified that they might be in the house.

"One, but she's at school!" Meera purred as she drew the man back down into a kiss.

Konstantin was more than happy to oblige her, his desire for the woman returning in full force. He pushed his rapidly stiffening cock into her groin, making her whimper with need. She rolled her hips with each push, needing more of it, but finding it was not enough. Meera pushed the man off and knocked him to his back, before she started stripping her sweats off.

"Sadeghi---what---" Konstantin started.

"It's been too long and this time, I'm taking control. Now, be a good boy and make me writhe," Meera commanded him as she dropped her panties next to the bed.

The detective couldn't help but stare at Meera's pussy, which was bare, save for a small patch just above her slit. With both her legs on either side of him, he could only watch as her glistening quim was lowered down to his face. The man just grinned and opened his mouth to receive his prize and latched onto it.

Meera sighed happily as she felt Konstantin's tongue working her folds as he licked her. She could feel each nerve in her vibrating in ecstasy as the man beneath her went to work on her. Rolling her hips once more, she doubled up her arms and pulled the T-shirt over her head. With her breasts now in the open, Meera cupped them as she brought one to her face and licked the nipple as Konstantin watched.

She heard a feral growl emanate from the man, and Meera felt him suck on her lips hard. The woman gasped in delight as the man continued his oral attentions on her, making Meera shiver from it. She gulped down what air she could, trying to keep herself focused on the moment, but finding that she couldn't. The pleasure she was receiving was too much for her to even form a coherent thought, much less focus.

She could feel her inner walls flutter slightly, as the pleasure she was receiving was driving her desire to new heights. Meera bit her lower lip gently as she rode Konstantin's face. She was enjoying herself with the man, far more than she thought she would, and that boded well for both of them. If Konstantin was this good with his mouth, she wondered how good he was with his dick.

"Wha---" Meera squawked as she felt her center of balance get thrown off. She found herself on her back and looking up at the big man, who now stood by the side of her bed. His clothes came off as he rushed to get them undone and join her in her nakedness. The moment his pants came off, her eyes widened and Meera smiled.

Konstantin was bigger than every other guy she'd been with, as his frame was one of strength and power. He had some muscle to him, which appealed to her to no end. His dick was nicely sized, looking like it was over nine inches long. He was also nicely curved, which she knew would hit some of those juicier spots within her. She could tell he was drinking in the sight of her as much as she was him.

Meera had taken the time to put herself into the best shape she could and it showed. Her C cup was high and perky, as was her ass, which she worked on relentlessly. Sure, she wasn't as young as she used to be, but she had the start of a six-pack, which on her, looked sexy as hell. She could tell that Konstantin appreciated her body, as his dick throbbed with need and want.

Konstantin crawled onto the bed, coming up to her and drawing her close to him. He didn't enter her, but instead, he teased the woman with his dick, sliding over her slit. The motion gave Meera goosebumps, and she wanted and needed to feel that monster inside her. Just as the big man made to line up and push himself into her, her mind focused and screamed at her to stop him.

"Wait!"

"What?" Konstantin asked, looking confused. Meera then reached for her nightstand and opened the drawer. Her hand dug in and rooted around for a second before she found what she was looking for. Pulling out the foil packet, she waved in front of Konstantin's face, smirking.

"Condom," she told him. Grinning, Konstantin took the packet from her, opened it and slid the condom onto his dick. Once it was on, she nodded and the big man pushed into the womanhood. She moaned as his cock stretched her out, the large member pushing her walls apart. Meera felt a small stab of satisfaction as she heard Konstantin moan as well.

"So... tight..." he groaned.

"Think that's... tight? How's... this?" Meera asked as she flexed her inner muscles. Konstantin yelped in pleasure as the increased pressure on his dick made him nearly lose his mind.

"Two can play... that game!" the big man told her. Seconds later, he pushed more into her, until she felt his balls resting on her ass. Meera crooned as her pussy accommodated his cock, making room so it would fit inside of her.

"Oh, yes! Fuck me with that cock!" Meera enthused and Konstantin did just that. His hands snapped to her hips and gripped her tightly. She purred in response, happy to see the man taking control of the situation. Meera felt him withdraw his cock before he rammed it back into her. The force of it was enough to leave her breathless, and the pleasure of it nearly melted her mind.

Konstantin continued doing this, moving in and out as fast as he could, whole while ramming this woman hard. Normally, he would have taken his time to make things good for her, but there was something about Meera. Something that told him he needed to take her this way, to make her want him. The way she was responding to him told him this was the right thing to do, as she clung to the man like a woman dying of thirst.

"More, more, more!" she chanted as Konstantin kept fucking her, using his dick to hammer her cunt.

"You sure you can handle more?" Konstantin asked.

"Keep... fucking... me!!" Meera yowled as she was racing back to her peak once again. What the man had started with his mouth would quickly be finished with his cock. Meera had been right. His upward curve was hitting her nerves in the most delightful way. She could feel the adrenaline rushing through her system, like a wave about to crash on dry land.

Konstantin could tell that Meera was getting near, and his instinct told him to change things up a bit. He wondered what he could do at this moment until he saw her leg twitch. Smiling evilly, he stopped for a second, but just long enough to raise one of Meera's legs up. He knew this angle was a good one, and he hoped Meera would enjoy herself from it.

"Ooooohhhhh... FUCK!" Meera screamed as the big man resumed his pace, plowing into her quim like there was no tomorrow. Meera was now riding the wave that was her orgasm, nearing her breaking point as she moved with Konstantin.

"Please... keep... going!! Almost... there... fffuuuucCCCKKKKKKK!!!" she howled as Meera's body spasmed and her pussy squeezed her new lover's cock.

Konstantin almost lost his shit right there, but just before he tipped over the edge, he felt Meer's inner muscles relax their grip on him. He looked down at her and smiled, watching Meera go through her post orgasmic fall. She lay there, writhing in the bedsheets as her high continued to carry her along. After an indeterminable amount of time, Konstantin started again, still hard enough to drive nails.

"You're... still hard?" Meera breathed, thinking this impossible.

"Didn't cum yet. Wanted to make it good for you, so you'd remember this," Konstantin chuckled.

"Oh, no you don't!" Meera growled as she pushed him off. Konstantin spluttered in protest until he watched Meera climb atop of him and guide his dick back into her. She sighed as she settled down on his cock, then looked down at her lover and smirked.

"Now, it's your turn to cum! I want you to fill that condom with every drop you have!" she told the man. Konstantin nodded and put his hands on her tits, feeling every inch he held as Meera moved her hips, riding the man. She yipped happily as he rolled and pinched her nipples between his fingers, wanting to see her face blissful once again.

"Oh, you clever little shit! Noticed I'm sensitive there, did you?" she sighed as her hips rose and fell on his cock.

"Yeah! The way you were working them gave it away!" Konstantin moaned as he felt his balls start to boil.

"You're not the only... clever one," Meera purred as she lowered her head and bit his neck, just below his jaw.

Konstantin then felt a surge of lust and desire course right through him, and he lost all sense of control. His arms wrapped around Meera and he moved his hips feverishly, almost like he was a man possessed. His cock pushed in and out of Meera so quickly that it felt like one long screw. He felt the need to empty his balls, take over and drive him to just savage the woman atop of him.

Meera figured his neck was sensitive, but she hadn't thought that she'd find one of Konstantin's set off points. Though she wasn't complaining, as she was being given an epic drilling that was pushing her back to that precipice once more. She could feel his grunting and moaning, which she could tell he was getting close. He was teetering on going over the edge, and she knew what she needed to do to set him off.

"Cum inside me," she whispered to him.

Konstantin half groaned and half roared as he came, his balls giving their offering to Meera. His essence raced up his shaft and his cock exploded, filling the condom with his seed. Feeling her lover expend himself inside her gave Meera a minigasm as she squeezed with her pussy muscles, milking Konstantin's cock. Spent from their impromptu fuck session, the pair of them lay like that, enjoying the afterglow.

"You know... I never thought you'd be one for being... vocal," Konstantin commented, after his mind had recovered from blissful oblivion.

"I'm still... finding my way with that. Learning to be the woman... I want to be," Meera admitted.

"Thought you already knew that," the big man chuckled.

"Well, there are a few things I'm still learning about. It's not like women from my culture are taught or allowed to embrace that... darker side of ourselves," Meera stated as she rolled off Konstantin, before snuggling into his side.

"You'll hear no complaints from me about that. I'm all for a woman embracing her darker side," the detective chuckled.

"Yeah, I'll bet you are!"

"Think I'll get a chance to see that darker side, unvarnished?" he asked.

"Keep giving me good snu-snu, and you will," she teased him as she giggled.

"I keep hearing that word everywhere, but I don't know what the deal is with it!" the man griped as he sat up.

"Sounds to me like you need an infusion of Futurama in your life!" Meera snickered.

"Maybe later. After we've questioned Randy and wrapped up this case," Konstantin stated, as his mind finally stopped whirling for him to stand up.

"Agreed. Just let me make a call first. I need to make sure that Zafira is looked after," Meera told him.

Konstantin nodded as he pulled the condom off, disposed of it, and got dressed. He smiled to himself as he put his clothes on, wondering what would happen now. Meera had more or less told him that encounters like this would be happening again. What would come of it, Konstantin didn't know, but there was one thing he knew. Whatever it was that was between them, for the first time in a long while, he was looking forward to where it could go.

******************************

The beleaguered attackers shuffled into the corrupted grove, feeling defeated and forlorn. The grove reflected what they felt, as it too had been affected by the soul drain that happened to the Dark Nymph. Many of the plants and creatures there had withered and died, the power of the mistress was no longer enough to keep them alive. As the Dark Nymph was carried to the center of the grove, they all feared that their time was soon at an end.

'Her soul? It was taken?' the Dark Heart questioned, demanding to know.

It received a round of nods from the children and the behemoth, as their power was just as badly diminished. The Dark Heart seethed with rage, but then noted something as it probed his most faithful servant. There were still fragments of her soul remaining, but they did not pulse with Gaian power. Only the corruption of Dark Magic remained within her.

'Take me and place me within your mistress. The time has come for her ultimate service,' the Dark Heart boomed, commanding one of the children.

Hearing this, the child obeyed, its face full of adulation as it carried out its duty. If the Dark Heart commanded this, then the true form of it would soon become manifest. The child went to the oozing and gloopy mass, picking it up gently and cradling it as it was carried to the Dark Nymph.

The dark muck that oozed from it slathered the child's hands, then arms, as the Darkness began to absorb it. The child made it to his mistress, just as it was being disintegrated and pulled into the Dark Heart. He placed the object of Darkness on the rent in his mistress' ravaged body, before he was gone, absorbed into it.

'Come to me! Join with me and we will destroy these hated interlopers and take back that which belongs to us!' the Dark Heart commanded.

The remaining creatures obeyed, each one of them coming and placing their hands and appendages upon the Dark Heart. Slowly, one by one, it absorbed them, their magic and their essence, feeding it and fueling its transformation. With Felicitae's Gaian side gone, the Dark Heart could now move to the final part of its plan. Now, Felicitae and every creature here would become its vessel, a Vessel of the Dark!
