Katja Pt. 15

She smiled and took his hand to bring him close. She kissed him, "I'd love to see them one day." She kissed him once more, then said, "Just let me check my message center, then I can get changed for dinner. Have a seat while you're waiting."

She led him over to the office area, and she sat behind her desk and he took a chair off to the side to wait on her.

Kendra checked her messages, then smiled saying to herself, "Good, just normal routine things." There was also a few from close friends on the ship saying how happy they were for her finding a mate.

She smiled up at her mate, "Well, that was nice, no problems, just routine ships business." Then she grinned, "And quite a few from friends wishing us well and wanting to meet you."

She got up and walked over to him then curled up in his lap. She kissed him, "Come with me and keep me company while I change."

He smiled and kissed her back, "I think I'd enjoy that my mate."

She shivered in pleasure when he called her "My mate." She kissed him, then got up taking his hand and leading him into her bedroom. She sat him a chair, then went to a closet and opened it.

Robert sat there watching her. He loved just to look at her as she stood in front of the open doors trying to choose what she would wear. He grinned to himself as he watched her stand there with her head cocked slightly to the side. Her thinking stance he said to himself, she looked so cute when she did that.

Kendra gazed over the clothes she had, which were heavy on uniforms, but quite light on casual things. She supposed she'd have to find some more civilian things, I'll have to ask Ariel about that. She finally picked out something and laid the outfit on the bed, then went to a storage chest and removed some fresh undergarments.

She turned and saw Robert watching and smiling at her. She grinned back, "What are you smiling about?"

Robert grinned, "About you really, you make me happy. I also love to watch as you think about something, you stand with your weight on one foot, with you head slightly cocked. It just makes you look so cute and sweet."

She grinned, then took on the pose. "You mean like this?"

Robert nodded yes, "That's the one, you're so beautiful, it takes my breath away. But when you do that, you look so cute and it makes me smile."

She grinned, "Well, if you like that, I think you really going to enjoy this." She smiled as she stripped off her all her clothes until she was standing in front of her mate bare-furred.

She looked at him with a sexy smile and asked, "Well? What to you think about this?"

Robert stood and came over. He put his arms around her and pulled her close holding her to him. Her breasts were crushed against him as he slowly caressed her back looking into her eyes. "You are absolutely, utterly gorgeous my love. Like I said, you take my breath away." He kissed her deeply and she returned it as their tongues played with each other.

Kendra broke the kiss, looked into his eyes with her tear-filled ones, "I love you so much my mate. I thank the Goddess every minute that She brought us together. You are the best thing that ever happened to me, I never thought I'd find my Mate, then I had to travel this far just to find him on an alien world. You are mine and I am yours, we are one."

Robert looked back at her as tears formed in his eyes also, "I never thought I'd find the right one either, none of the woman I knew ever seemed to have the thing I was looking for." Then he grinned, "Then I find her walking down the ramp of a space ship from another world." He kissed her, "I love you Kendra, you are mine and I am yours, we are one."

They kissed each other again still holding each other tightly. Then she giggled, "My love, before we lose all control again, we do have a dinner to go to."

He grinned back, then reluctantly let go of her. "Your right love, you better get dressed." He turned and walked back to sit down.

Kendra grinned wickedly as she watched him reach down and rearrange his member before he sat. Though why she was grinning as she herself felt her thigh get slightly wet from her own juices. She finished dressing, then they went out and headed towards the captain's quarters.

Once there, they were greeted warmly by the captain, "Kendra, Captain Henderson, it's good to see you. I imagine you spent the afternoon getting to know each other."

Kendra smiled, however Robert blushed slightly. The captain grinned, "I'm sorry captain, I forget you humans can be a little unused to our ways. There is no need to be embarrassed."

Robert blushed again, "Yes sir, I suppose I should get used to it. I have a feeling it will come up every now and then." They walked over to where Ariel and Tony were talking and as they did, Kendra grinned, and kissed his cheek whispering, "Well it certain came up this afternoon love. A lot."

Robert stifled a laugh and realized he was being silly. He whispered back, "Yes it did. I love you."

They greeted the others and sat down. Ariel smiled, "So, how are you two making out?"

Kendra smiled, "Very well actually, though my mate here tends to get embarrassed when people ask."

Tony laughed, "Well, he'll get used to it, I went through the same thing. It's not something humans discuss as openly as the Lyonness do. To us, it's considered a more private thing."

The captains steward came around offering small glasses of wine and they all took one. Robert took a sip and smiled, "Is this one of your wines Kendra? It's very good, though I can't place what it's made from."

Kendra smiled and nodded, "Yes, it is, it's one of our better types. It's made from a fruit that grows on Lyonness."

Tony smiled and said to him, "I've had this one before at a dinner. It's similar to our Moscato, but not as sweet. I'm not a big wine drinker, I'd rather have beer or ale, but this is very good."

Kendra nodded, "Yes, I understand most of yours is made from... what was that you gave me this afternoon Robert?"

Robert smiled, "It was grapes, that's what we make our wine from, for the most part. I've had other wines made from other fruits and we also make one from honey, that's called mead."

Kendra nodded, "That was the word, grapes. We don't have anything like that on home-world, so we just use a few different fruits. We're not big wine drinkers, we save it for special occasions and certain rites."

They talked some more with Kendra asking them all questions about the planet and customs. Then when Robert and Tony were talking about a place they had both been to, Kendra leaned in and asked Ariel, "Ariel, could I have a word in private?"

Ariel smiled, "Sure." Then she said to Tony, "Kendra and I need to have a little girl talk. We'll be right back."

Tony grinned and made a shooing motion understanding what it was probably about.

Robert looked at him and Tony grinned, "They want to discuss the care and feeding of human males, more than likely."

Ariel kissed him, "Bet your cute butt love, why don't you do the same with him. Teach him about the care and feeding of beautiful cat-girls."

Tony grinned, "My pleasure kitten."

Kendra and Ariel laughed, then walked over to another couch out of earshot. Ariel smiled, "So, how did everything go?"

Kendra smiled, "Just perfect, I love him so much. He's a little... I'm not sure of the human word." She said something in their language and Ariel grinned. "Yes, that's about right, but they loosen up. Oh, and the word you're looking for is "Prim or proper."

"It took Tony a while to get used to it also." Then she got serious, "Also, you may want to explain to him on the difference between mates and playmates. Tony will more than likely mention it, but humans can be quite proprietary about their females and don't understand playing like we do."

Kendra nodded, "Yes, I sensed that. But he seems to be open to... new ways. For lack of a better term."

Ariel nodded, "Yes, like I said, once they understand it, it's fine." Then she grinned asking, "And how did everything else go? I hope you had fun."

Kendra grinned and nodded, "He was wonderful. He's better than anyone I've been with. He did something to me that I hope he never stops doing." She shivered with pleasure from the memory of him licking her.

Ariel grinned, "Oh yes, they are quite willing to do anything if it pleases the other." She looked over and then asked quietly, "Did he use his tongue on you?"

Kendra grinned and shivered again, "Yes he did, many times. I thought my head was going to explode the first time he used his tongue. It felt so wonderful."

Ariel nodded, "I learned about it from Katja when she told me about it with Erik. Then Tony did to me and I swear there are times I'd rather he just do that."

Kendra looked at her, "So you mean they all do that??"

Ariel nodded, "Just about I guess, Tony said he normally did and that the human females love it as much as we do."

Then she grinned again, "But he did add that we taste much better than human females. The smell and taste of our sex drives them wild."

Kendra nodded, "Yes, I noticed that with Robert. We were playing and when he moved between my legs, he got very amorous. More than I've ever seen a male act."

Ariel nodded, then looking slyly at her, asked, "And did reciprocate with him?"

Kendra looked startled, "You mean licking his member also?"

Ariel nodded enthusiastically, "Oh yes, and sucking on it also. Trust me, you'll love it and he definitely will. They taste wonderful and leak out a juice when you do Tony calls precum, that really tastes good. But their seed doesn't, I'll normally suck him till he climaxes or cums as they say, and finish him off by hand. He told me most females don't like the taste of it, so they do the same thing."

She smiled, "But sometimes I do when I feel like it, or we get caught off guard when we're both really excited, and it doesn't always taste bad."

Ariel smiled, "I'll send you the book Katja and myself found, it explains it all. I've never found it wrong. Oh, and don't worry if there's something you want him to do or not do. They'll try anything for the right female."

Kendra smiled, "Thanks for talking with me Ariel, this is all new."

Ariel waved that away, "It's new for all of us, on both sides. But the good thing is, both sides are willing to make it work." She looked around, then saw uncle Geoff come in, "I think your going to find out why tonight."

Kendra looked at her and remembered what happened after the first part of the mating ritual. "When we finished the first part of the mating ritual, we were holding each other and I swear I heard in my mind, "Your joining is blessed my daughter. As like the others, your children will also help heal this world."

"I thought it might have been the Goddess, but the feeling was gone as fast as it came."

Ariel nodded, "It was, trust me. Trust in Her and like I said, I believe you'll hear more about it tonight. Trust me, it's wonderful Kendra if that's what you heard."

Kendra nodded, then they went back to their mates. They sat together, and Ariel asked, "Well my mate, did you give him a few lessons?"

Tony grinned at her, "I tried, but you have to remember, he's a Marine and an officer, so it might take a while till he understands it all."

He was shocked a little when Kendra inadvertently growled as she said, "I wouldn't worry about that."

Robert looked at her in amazement as Ariel grinned and said, "Pull your claws in, they're only playing with each."

Kendra blushed as Robert smiled and took hold of her hand. Tony smiled and said, "She's right Kendra, we were only playing, I wasn't insulting your mate."

She looked at Robert as he smiled at her, "Love, it's really alright, Tony is ex-navy and we always joke with each other like that, it's normal. Marines and Navy always do that, until someone else starts with one of us, then we gang up on them."

Kendra blushed once more, "I'm sorry, I didn't understand."

Tony grinned "That's alright, I'd have thought less of you if you didn't."

Robert leaned over and kissed her, "Thank you kitten."

She looked at him and asked, "Why?"

He grinned, "I never had anyone that was ready to tear apart someone for me."

She looked at him and shook her head. Then she looked at Ariel, and she shrugged, then grinned.

Tony laughed, "Bob, would you like that translated?"

He shook his head no, "I think I got that one." He sighed dramatically, "Males!"

Tony nodded laughing, then Kendra and Ariel joined them.

They all sat down to dinner once everyone got there. The food was wonderful and Tony aided Robert on a few things when the girls couldn't explain what the food was. Afterwards, they relaxed at the table talking amongst themselves. Then the captain said to Geoff, "Well my friend, you said you were going to explain some things. Why don't we get that out of the way?"

Geoff took a sip of tea, then wiped his mouth and put the napkin on the table. He then said, "Yes, why don't we my friend. A few here already know firsthand what I'm about to say." He nodded to Tony and Ariel. "They can correct me or add anything that seems appropriate."

He looked around the room, then said, "What I'm about to say, should stay in this room for now. Once you hear it, I think you'll understand better." He then proceeded to tell them the reason why everything was going well and why so many of their people and earth people were mating and so quickly.

He told them about the visitations different people had and what was planned. He also added the fact that many of the humans had a combination of DNA and told them the theory that Erik had come up with and told them how many had been tested. Then finally, he told them of the new Goddess Briast and how she would be watching over the new people.

The room was quiet while he told them and when he finished, you could hear a pin drop. Then Robert looked at Tony and asked in a quiet voice, "This is all true?"

Tony nodded, then smiled, "Yes Bob, it's true, all of it. Actually, I believe it goes a little farther than that, but we don't know it all yet."

Tony noticed the others listening, then for some reason, he went on. "What the commander didn't mention, since I live with Erik and Katja I sometimes hear a little more, we'll probably find that the same will happen once the others get here, the Kannite's and the Avianne's. For humans here that don't know, the Kannite's are kind of like the Lyonness, except their background is canine instead of feline and the Avianne's evolved from birds."

He shrugged, "I don't know much about them, only what Ariel's told me."

Then he looked at the rest of the people there, "It seems, that all the Gods/ Goddesses have decided to take a more overt hand in everything."

Then he laughed, "Before you ask why, I couldn't say for the others, but for us humans, I'd imagine they got a little tired of us screwing things up." Then he got serious, but still not knowing why, he continued. "I believe that they decided to because we are coming to the point where we are going to be traveling farther away from this planet as we learn more from the Lyonness and the others once they show up. They want kind, peaceful, and intelligent people, like we were intended to be."

Then Kendra asked, "Tony, does this mean you look to this new Goddess? And that the rest of us of mixed specie relationships will also?"

Tony smiled, "I don't believe so, you look to who you want. I'm what's called, Asatru, I look to Odin All-father and Ariel still looks to Bast." Then he grinned, "Though I've been told I'm partially Hers also due to my DNA."

He shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm sure I'm not saying or explaining this right. I don't have the gift like Erik does to explain things like this."

Suddenly, they all felt a presence and an aura appeared as the filmy image of the Goddess Briast materialized. They all sat in awe at this visitation.

She smiled, then with a lilting voice, she said, "Do not be sorry my son, I thought you explained it well." She laughed, "Your brother Erik is often warned that he knows to much. The others are a bit proper, but since I'm younger, it does not bother me as much."

She looked at the group of people and smiled, "All my son has told you is true, you'll will know more when the time is right. The one thing he said that was perfectly correct, is that We all wish that all the peoples are kind, peaceful, and intelligent. It will take time, everything has the proper time to be accomplished, but in the end, all will be like this. Things were left too much to chance, so we will guide you all once again. This is the One's wish, to which even we answer to."

She smiled lovingly at them all, then the aura around Her expanded as She raised her arms. Then she said, "I bless all here, proceed as you have started, all will be well." The aura grew brighter and brighter, then it faded and She was gone.

They all felt slightly empty as the Goddess left, but it was replaced with the joy of what they had just experienced.
