Katja Pt. 08

Author's Note:

This is a work of pure fantasy.

The story contains sexual activities and situations between a man and a humanoid cat-girl that are to be read only by readers above the legal age of consent. All characters having sexual relations are above the age of 18. Or whatever the legal age is on whatever planet they came from. All the character names, places are made up and not real.

Yes, the Ancient Alien people were right. This is Part 8 of a love story and more of a human male and humanoid cat-girl from another planet.

Also, for convenience and to keep the story moving, everything has been converted to English such as language, measurements and names, etc. etc.

As are most of the stories I've written and will write, if you're looking for story that goes, "They met, they had wild sex, the end" I would advise reading something else. I stopped this part of the story at a place that seemed right when I was splitting it up. As soon as I get the next part cleaned up, I'll post that and so on and so forth.

I still consider myself an amateur writer, so please take that into consideration when you read it. I write for my enjoyment and for the people that like it. And remember, this is pure fiction and fantasy.

If you don't like how and what I write, oh well. Don't read it. My feelings won't be hurt.

For those of you that do like what I've posted so far, thank you and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.

Katja nodded, then grinned, "Speaking of things happening soon, have you and Tony come to any decisions yet?"

Ariel blushed and nodded, "Yes, we've decided that we will be Mated. We love each other to much and we have too much fun together to wait any longer, we know we are meant to be. The being Mated part we'll do when the time is right, it should be soon. However, we might wait a bit before we do what you and Erik did today. Neither of us have ever seen a ceremony like that before. But it fits us doesn't it? I saw some human weddings on the computer, and they didn't really do all that much for me. But this one did."

Then she laughed, "I couldn't believe that my big ape of a mate was crying like a child. But that's how he really is, he's one of the tenderest people I've ever met, even if he doesn't look like it."

Part 8

Two Weeks Later

Since the wedding. everything had been going as per schedule. Both of Erik's classes were going well, and Katja, with Erik's help, had revamped how the repair department was run. Now, everything more or less ran itself, only having to intercede when something major happened which was rare.

Also, when they went back to work after the wedding, Erik had talked to Neko and he introduced him to his son Axel, little Jonny's father. Axel was a younger version of his father, so Erik got along with him because of it. He explained to him what had happened and how Lucy and Jonny were fated to be mated when they came of age.

Axel was so proud to hear this; his son would be the Mate of a High Priestess one day. This was a great honor, no matter that the Priestess was human, the Lyonness looked on this quite different than humans did. While Jack and Maria had been slightly confused about Lucy becoming a priestess and when she said that she knew Jonny was to be her mate, even at her young age.

But not Axel or Neko. They had heard of this happening before and looked at it as normal and natural thing. It was something to make the family proud.

Erik explained that Lucy was a bit sad that she couldn't see or play with Jonny all the time and he assumed that Jonny was the same way. So, he was wondering if it would all right for Jonny to at least talk to her and see her by video calling each other. Then Erik added, "I need to check to see if we have anything here that will be able to do that, or if not, I can get him a human computer like this one." He showed them his laptop.

Axel looked at it and said, "That's fine by me, but I don't think we have anything to do that, or at least none that I ever seen. Where can we get one?"

Erik shook his head, "Don't worry about it, I've got an older one at home you can have. Just let me check it out and clean it up. It's not as good as the one I have now, but for what we want to do with it, it'll be fine. This way you can also use it to go on the human internet if you want to, it will hook up to the system here with an adapter to connect it. I do it all the time for my classes."

Erik had done that, so now Jonny and Lucy were happy, we'll happier, they still wanted to actually see and play with each other. Erik laughed, long distance relationships might work somewhat for adults, but for little kids, not so much.

Erik was sitting in his office going over the classes for next week. Trying to kill two birds with one stone, he had invited Jack to speak to them about some of the legal aspects of starting a business and a couple of other things relating to finding work off the ship since they were immigrants. This would allow Lucy and Jonny to spend the day together.

He looked up at the clock and decided he had enough paperwork, so he decided to go and see Katja and talk about some classes. Well, that's what he said, he really just wanted to see her and make sure she was all right. She hadn't slept very well last night and had been sort of grumpy this morning.

He went down and buzzed her on the door intercom. She answered with growled "What is it now?"

With a little confusion he said, "It's Erik, Katja." She opened the door and hugged him. "I'm sorry I growled at you love, nobody will leave me alone today for some reason."

She kissed him and said, "I just don't know what's wrong with me today."

Erik kissed her back, "Well, you didn't get much sleep last night, you were tossing and turning most of the night. That usually makes me a little out of sorts."

"Look, it's Friday, why don't we get out of here at lunch time. We'll go home and I'll make you that tuna salad you like so much, then you can just do nothing, with no one to bother you the rest of the day. Maybe that's all you need, a little down time. Okay?"

Katja nodded then hugged him again. "I love you. You're so good to me, even when I'm being a total pain in the butt."

Erik grinned "I love you too kitten, that's what mates are supposed to do. Just let me call Ariel and let her know Tony will need to pick her up and close up my office, then I'll be back." Katja nodded and kissed him once more.

Erik went to his office and called Ariel. She answered and he told her Tony would need to pick her up. "I really don't know what's the matter with her. I thought she might just be tired, so I'm taking her home to kind of just goof off and relax."

Ariel agreed, "I think you might be right, she was very short with me this morning when I came to talk to her. Since Tony's picking me up, we might go out instead. I'll have him text you if we are."

He finished up putting everything away and was just shutting down his computer when Katja opened up his door and came in. "I decided to come here and wait for you in case someone else had wanted something."

Erik smiled, "Okay, I'm just about done. Then we can go."

Once the computer had shut down, he put it in his bag and made a quick check to make everything else was shutdown, then said, "Okay, let's go."

She took his arm and held it tight as they walked along the passageways to the exit. They saw people they knew but she just held him tighter and kept walking without saying anything. They made it to the car and she finally loosened her grip on him. He opened the door for her to get in and she kissed him.

Once they got home they went and got changed, then Erik made her lunch. She seemed much better once they got home and had something to eat. After they ate, they went into the living room and sat on the couch, then she took hold of his arm and held him as she curled up next to him. Erik smiled as he started to stroke her like he normally did. She seemed more like herself now, maybe that's all it was, she was tired.

Katja fell asleep holding him, that was nothing unusual, she normally did after eating. Erik flipped through the channels on the TV until he found something to watch, then about two or so, his phone beeped. He picked it up from the end table and saw that it was a text from Tony saying they were going out for dinner like Ariel said, and they'd see them later.

Finally, Katja woke up and stretched yawning. He looked down at her and asked, "Feeling better now kitten?"

Katja smiled and said, "Yes, I guess you were right, I was just tired." Then she snuggled up against him.

Erik hugged her to him and she purred. They watched TV for a while, then he told her what Tony had texted him. "Since we have the place to ourselves a while longer, what would you like for dinner tonight?"

Katja shrugged, "I don't know, something with meat, no fish or chicken, otherwise just surprise me."

Erik ran over the inventory of what was in the fridge, it was a little low, they were going shopping tomorrow. "I know you don't eat it all the time, but since you want meat, we've got a couple of steaks still in there. That okay?"

Katja nodded, "That's fine, I'm just in the mood for meat tonight."

Erik held her close and stroked her again. She laid her head on his shoulder and kissed it saying, "I love you so much my mate."

Erik hugged her and said, "I love you to kitten. I'm glad you're feeling better."

She just smiled and kissed his shoulder again.

About an hour later, he told her he needed to start dinner, she nodded and sat up. Erik went in the kitchen and started prepping the steaks. He normally got them from a local butcher shop and they were always tasty and tender. They might cost a little more, but he thought they were worth it.

Katja had followed him in and sat at the table to watch him cook. He was a very good cook and she was looking forward to the steak tonight. She normally didn't eat beef, but tonight she wanted the taste of the warm tasty juices running down her throat.

While he was waiting for the pan to heat up, he put the plates and silverware on the table and Katja set them at their spots. She asked him what he wanted to drink and then got them some iced tea.

He put the steaks in the pan and as they sizzled, the aroma was making her mouth water. After they cooked for a while, Erik checked the temp and shut off the stove, then he transferred them to a plate to rest while he finished up.

While the steaks were resting, he made some fries up and some salad to go along with the steaks. This was his favorite meal, a good steak and fries,

He dished everything up and sat down across from Katja. He watched as she cut off a piece of steak and slowly chewed it.

Katja shivered as the hot, rich juices of the steak ran down her throat as she chewed. She smiled at Erik and said, "Ummm, this is so good my love. You always cook so well, I don't know how you do it."

Erik grinned, "I worked in a catering place when I was a teenager, washing dishes. But the cook liked me and promoted me to cooks assistant. That meant I still washed dishes, along with being his gofer, but he did teach me how to cook. Then when I got my own place, I got tired of eating out, so I started to cook more and more and learned different things."

He started eating his and before he knew it, she was done. He watched as she wiped up the steak juices with some leftover French fries. He smiled, "You look like your still hungry, want the rest of mine."

She nodded, so he put what he had left on her plate and watched her as she devoured that.

He smiled again, "I hope your full now, there's none left."

She licked her lips and then daub at them with a napkin, "That was so good Erik, thank you for that last piece."

Erik smiled, "Not a problem love, why don't you go out and watch TV while clean up."

Katja shook her head no, "I want to help you, then we can both go."

Erik smiled, "Okay, whatever you say."

They finished up quickly, then Erik refilled their glasses and they took them out with them. She curled up next to him and held his arm tightly just like she did before. She normally curled up like this, but she had a death grip on his arm tonight, like she was afraid he was going to go away or something.

They talked for a while and Erik mentioned that Jack and the girls would be down on Thursday. Katja yawned widely, showing her fangs and said "I guess we should have them over for dinner, I could make the chicken you like so much."

Erik smiled and said, "That sounds good to me, I like everything you make, but that one is the best."

Katja smiled and yawned again, "I'm glad you like it, that's the reason I made sure I knew how to make it perfect."

The next thing he knew, she was asleep and purring still holding on to him. He smiled, that was the reason he filled up his glass again, he knew she'd go into her normal post-meal coma.

He looked down at her, thinking once more, "Thank you my Goddess for letting us find each other. I love her so much."

Then he heard a soft lilting Irish voice say to him, "You are welcome my son. Always know that I love you also, you are one of my best creations."

Erik thought back, "And I love you also my wonderful, beautiful Goddess."

He heard a tinkling laugh, "Don't let your mate hear you say that my son." And then She was gone, and he felt slightly empty inside. But only until he felt his mate lying next to him, her warm soft body cuddled up against him with her arm still wrapped tightly around his as she purred.

He watched TV and then after about an hour, she woke again and stretched. She let go of his arm and wormed her way up until she was in his lap. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him. "I'm sorry I slept so long my love."

Erik smiled, and kissed her back, "That's all right kitten, you needed it. Besides, I like to watch you sleep, your so cute and I love how you purr when your sleeping."

She smiled and said, "I love you, you always know the right thing to say."

They sat there talking for a while, the Erik heard the door open. Tony and Ariel walked in and greeted them. Then Tony said, "We found a new restaurant that just opened, the food is really good. But the best thing is, they have a section of menu that's just the Lyonness food."

Ariel smiled, "And it's not bad, at all. Katja they have that one that your uncle eats all the time that you like so much. Erik you've had that on a few times also."

Erik smiled, "Yeah that one is good, did they say where they learned how to make it?"

Ariel nodded, "One of our cooks stopped in a week or so ago, and he got to talking shop to the chef there. They kind of traded, he wanted to learn how to make some human dishes and the chef wanted to learn ours"

Then she laughed, "He might be one of the first ones to leave the ship, and not work there anymore, the chef is trying to hire him away."

Then Erik noticed that Katja wasn't saying anything and she would hold him tighter every time Ariel spoke. He asked her, "Did you want to try there one-night kitten?"

Katja looked at him and nodded. Then Ariel said, "You're going to love it Kat."

That's when Erik noticed her get a frown on her face when Ariel spoke again. It had to his imagination. They were best friends.

He asked her, "Is something wrong my mate?" Are you okay?

Katja looked at him and said sharply, "Of course I'm okay, why would you even ask that?"

Erik was a bit taken aback, "I'm sorry Katja, you just looked like something was the matter."

Then she hugged him, "I'm all right, I'm sorry I snapped at you. I'm fine."

Now Erik was getting worried, Katja had never done that before for any reason, it was totally out of character. Sure, some couples might disagree on some things and one might get a little ticked at the other, but it never really happened to them.

He just held her tighter and said, "It's all right kitten, don't worry about it."

Then he said to Tony, "So, I hear you two are finally going to formalize things. Are you going the whole route and get married to?"

Tony smiled, "Yeah we figured it was about time. We haven't decided on the earth marriage yet. She's thinking might as well, but I'm not too sure we need to."

To which Erik replied, "Well, there are advantages that come along with it, Ariel would be granted the ability to apply for citizenship if you were to marry her and it would probably go faster. I'm getting things set up now so Katja can get hers. That Mr. Sharpe is helping, but with all the things going on with the town, the meeting and stuff, he hasn't gotten the chance to see what the exact procedure will be."

Tony looked at him, "You know, I forgot all about that."

Ariel laughed and said joking, "Well if he doesn't decide soon, maybe I'll just marry you, I hear there are humans that have than one wife. So why can't you have two."

Erik smiled, but he felt Katja stiffen. He held her a little tighter and said grinning, "Sorry, no, I don't think so. Besides, the ones you read about were probably Mormons. They're were allowed for religious reasons, but I don't think they can anymore." He felt Katja relax a little, "Besides, I've got all I can handle or want right here."

After few minutes more, Katja said to him, "I think I'm going to bed." And she got up to go into the bedroom.

Then Erik stood also saying, "Holdup love, I'll go with you."

She turned and looked at him and said, "No, that's all right, you can stay here if you want, I don't care."

Erik pulled up short with that statement, and watched as she went in and closed the door, hard.

Ariel and Tony looked at him as he stood there staring at the door. Then he walked over and opened it to walk in.

Tony looked at Ariel, "What was that all about?"

Ariel looked at the closed door and said, "I really don't know, she's been a little cranky all day. I stopped in to see her this morning and she was really short with me. She said it was because people were bothering her all morning. Erik told me she didn't sleep very well last night and he thought that was what was making her edgy. That's why he took her home early, to relax."

Tony nodded, "I can understand that, back in the day, there were times that we didn't get a whole lot of sleep. We were grumpy for days after that."

When Erik came into the room, Katja was already in bed. He got undressed and got in bed with her. Normally, the minute they laid down, they were in each other's arms. But tonight, she just laid there. He knew she wasn't sleeping, if she was, she'd be purring.

He rolled on his side and put an arm around her, "Kitten, are you all right? Did I do something wrong?"

Without turning over, her heard he say. "I'm fine. Please stop asking me, just leave me alone."

Tears formed in his eyes as she said to leave her alone. He didn't know what was the matter and it hurt for her to say that to him. It also hurt that he couldn't help her, because she wouldn't talk to him. Sadly, he answered, "Okay, if that's what you want, I won't bother you." Then he rolled over, his back to hers.

As he laid there, tears rolled down his cheek. So much for being able to fix anything, he thought to himself. It had felt like a knife going into him when she told him to leave her alone. She was always so open with him about any problems and he remembered her words to him after the trip to the village,

"Good, now if you told this to me yesterday, we would have fixed it then instead of today and you wouldn't have been upset since yesterday. That is why I told you, so I would only feel upset for a little while."

That's the way she was, not like she was tonight.

He felt her turn over and she put her arm around him laying her head against him. He could tell that she had been crying herself, he felt her tears on his bare back. In a soft voice she said, "My Mate, I'm so sorry."
