“Are you sure he’s OK?” Shanna nervously asked, trying to keep her voice low.

“No, I’m not sure,” Cate hotly replied. “It was stupid of him, and he should know better. He knows he’s susceptible to these kinds of attacks, and the more he does things like this without taking precautions, the shorter his time with us will be.”

“It’s alright,” Alex insisted, still looking tired and drained. “I ate some and then I took a short nap when we got back to the hotel.”

“Alex, I didn’t want to say anything before, but you already look several years older since you were shot before this latest event,” Cate told him pointedly. “Now you’re showing wrinkles on your face and around your eyes, you’ve got visible gray hairs and you look exhausted. The strain on your body is showing, and we’re worried about you.”

“And I suppose you don’t think I should have helped Rachel?” he asked.

Cate sighed heavily. “No, you did the right thing, but there are ways to go about things like this. You’re always trying to do something in the most dramatic way you can, without regard to your own safety. You just have to be more cautious. Maybe if you didn’t do it all at once.”

“You don’t seem to understand, Cate. What I did was unprecedented, and it wasn’t like anything I’d done before. It simply struck me that I could try something new and I tried it, but since it was new I had no idea what was involved or how long it would take. Clearly it took longer than I’d anticipated. It couldn’t have been done piecemeal. What I did was to cause the damaged kidney to regrow new tissue, but in order to do that I had to feed it a fairly heavy dose of energy in a consistent manner for a specific period.”

“He’s right, Cate,” Gail chimed in. “What he did was completely new. It’s akin to what they keep trying with stem cells, getting the body to grow new cells when it wouldn’t on its own. The amount of things he had to overcome and that had to occur for it to succeed makes my mind swim. I still can’t fathom how it’s even possible.”

“Still, I’d rather you tried these new things when you’re in a healthier environment and better prepared than you were,” Cate continued to chide him.

“What could be healthier than a hospital?” Alex answered flippantly.

“Anywhere you were rested, well fed and had enough supplemental energy supplies to keep you refreshed. You exhausted yourself, Alex, and you came very close to ending up in the emergency room as a result.”

“Yes, Mom, I understand what I did wrong. Now can we order dinner? I’m starving.”

“Humph, it’s no wonder. And I want you to eat double portions. Order two entrees. And not just steak and potatoes, either. We don’t know what you drained from your body, so order extra vegetables. And no desserts either. You don’t need the empty calories. If you need anything else, order an appetizer instead.” Alex merely rolled his eyes but did as his sister requested. “And don’t call me mom, I think the world of her, but it’s hardly an encouraging comment. Do it again and you’re likely to be walking to California.”

“Hey there, I’m sorry I’m late,” Liv Bisla said as she came in and found a place to sit down. “Wow, you certainly know how to make a scene. First you produce a medical miracle without any drugs, machinery or without touching the patient, then you put everyone into a panic by collapsing.”

“How’d Rachel do as a result?” Cate asked, her own scientific curiosity finally winning over her concern with her brother’s health.

“Well, it took a lot of discussion with the lead doctor at the hematology clinic, and only with Mary’s insistence would he release the information, but they ran some quick tests. It turns out her numbers are much better. He didn’t want to admit it, but Alex is correct. Her kidneys are now functioning well enough that she no longer needs dialysis. In fact, she should be relatively healthy now. At least for a while, they want to ensure this isn’t a temporary gain. But that is a big win in my book,” Liv told them all.

“It’s not short term,” Gail announced. “It’s brand new growth. She basically regrew 30% of her kidney function. I think if they did a scan they’d find her kidneys are that much larger.”

“That’s amazing. 30% is enough by itself to end dialysis, but added to what she already had, it will leave her with a healthy margin,” Liv said, looking at Alex with wonder in her eyes. “It’s one thing to have something you can’t fathom happen to you, but it’s another to have a medical miracle play out in front of educated witnesses and that can be verified by demonstrable facts. And you do this kind of thing regularly?”

“Oh, no,” Cate warned her. “This is hardly regular. He almost killed himself today. He was trying something new. Normally he simply strengthens existing tissue, giving it a boost of energy. He saved a guy in New Orleans by feeding energy into his heart following a massive heart attack, then jump starting the guy’s heart. But this time he actually convinced Rachel’s body to grow new tissue. That just breaks so many physical and biological laws it’s unbelievable. There are just a zillion reasons why it isn’t possible.”

“It isn’t possible yet, as far as modern science is concerned. They’ve managed to grow simple organisms, but nothing nearly as complicated as a kidney yet,” Liv told her. “I was wondering why he responded so poorly if he’d planned this out in advance.”

“Oh, it wasn’t planned,” Alex told her while stuffing bread rolls into his face. “I had no idea what she was suffering from, and I purposely didn’t ask in advance. In fact, I only asked Erin when there was specific information I needed to know to ensure I didn’t make her worse.”

“Yeah, she said you were afraid you could make an infection worse? You certainly confused the poor girl. She didn’t know what to report, since everything you did runs counter to everything she learned in medical school.”

Since Alex was still trying to eat, Cate answered for him. “Infections, viruses and parasites are all living things. Alex’s energy surrounds all living things, so if he feeds more energy in, he’d theoretically feed the undesirable elements the same as he would the healthy tissue. That’s all she’d need is a super healthy infection.”

“Yeah, I can see how that would be a problem,” Liv acknowledged. “Did you actually test that idea?”

Cate looked shocked. “Uh, no, I didn’t think of that.”

“Then you don’t know for sure that it’ll happen. The energy isn’t food, is it? Even if it strengthens the infection, it may strengthen the immune system more. We’ll have to think of a way of testing it.”

“Well, that’s going to be hard to do while we’re traveling,” Alex told her. “I’m the only one who can do it, and we’d need to supply energy to a Petri dish for a minimum of several days.”

“Yeah, it’d take a while, but it’s something you need to do before you make too many assumptions about what won’t work. Not that I’d suggest experimenting on someone with an infection, though,” Live replied with a grin.

They had to pause the conversation as the waiter brought Liv a menu and delivered a large frozen fruit drink in front of Alex. Hopefully that would give him enough energy to last until the food arrived. Once Liv ordered they resumed their discussion.

“Actually, you did me a favor,” Liv explained. “The head of the hematology clinic and the girls’ doctor called the hospital demanding answers, which triggered questions around the hospital as well. Doctors don’t like unanswered questions. I had to admit I didn’t know anything about it, as I’d just met you. But I told them you’d offered me a unique opportunity to visit you and learn your techniques. I then explained where I’d need to go and how long it would take. They were hesitant to approve something so unprecedented on such short notice, but they were so curious they couldn’t resist.”

“So, Alex, I’m confused,” Cate asked her brother. “How did you manage the new growth? Did you dissolve the damaged tissue? Increase the density of the kidney tissue, or cause new growth to form outside of the existing kidney like you did with the brain tissue?” Now that she’d worked out all her protective issues her scientific curiosity was bubbling over.

“Frankly, my dear, as usual, I haven’t a clue,” he answered. “As always, I just did what I felt was necessary and somehow my body knew what to do. But I don’t actually think I did anything unusual. I think the increase in the level of energy and the way that I applied it fostered some natural growth function in the body that normally isn’t used, so I think her body took over and took care of things. It’s like if a parched drought ridden landscape suddenly gets a heavy rainfall. Suddenly new life springs up and everything just gets out of the way. Somehow everything just seems to work together.”

Cate grunted. It was clear she wasn’t happy with that answer. She wanted something more specific than clever but weak analogies.

“OK, moving on,” Liv said, jumping back in, realizing her time was limited since she was likely to be called back on duty. “I understand there was a lot we didn’t get to today. What else do I need to know? Do I need to travel to New Orleans? When can I head to Carbondale? Should I call your friend or the head of the hospital or what?”

“Whoa,” Alex replied, trying to slow down her questions since he didn’t feel he had the energy to handle them all. “One question at a time. Yes, Liv, there’s still quite a bit you need to know. No, you don’t need to travel to New Orleans right now. Eventually, yes, but that’s more so you can learn about the community than for any other reason. Right now I’d prefer if you focused on the medical aspects. I already spoke to Allison, so she’s expecting your call and she’s already advised Ryan about your desire to visit. They’ve already spoken to my friend Natalie, who’s been handling your role until now, Shanna. She’s the one that’s planned our trip for us. She’ll make whatever arrangements you need. Cate can give you the number for her. Call her and she’ll set things up for you.”

“Good. I’m excited about this and I’d like to start as soon as I can. Is this coming Monday too soon?” Liv asked. Alex just smiled.

“Since I’m not involved in it, the sooner the better. I’m sure they’re just as excited, so I’m sure everyone will be more than happy to make allowances. As I said, I expect Ryan to offer you a job, but he’s already been overextending himself and his hospital for my benefit, so I don’t think it’s a good idea to accept. Besides, I have other plans for you.”

The waiter arrived with their food so they dug in. The food was good, though not quite as good as they were used to in the French Quarter, but Alex made a comical sight sitting behind several dinner plates all piled around him laden with food. Both Cate and Gail knew he’d quickly eat his way through them, even with the extra large portions they piled on hoping to justify the prices they charged.

Seeing Alex was again busy stuffing his face, Cate stepped into the breach. “There’s a lot we didn’t get to. There’s a whole classification of followers that we’ve established that it’s important to understand. In order to discuss them in public we’ve developed personal and public descriptions for them. We call the first group type 1’s, or Seers. This group includes both you, Liv and Shanna, as well as Gail. They can physically see the energy Alex gives off, and that inhabits all living things. Until they’re activated, they naturally feel other’s energy, although they don’t recognize it as such. They simply assume it’s a form of intuition. They demand much more of Alex’s time and focus, so they tend to get the most attention.

“The next group is the type 2s, or Watchers. We call them that because that’s how we identify them. Whenever Alex shows up they congregate around him, simply watching in rapt attention but afraid to approach him, not understanding their attraction to him. Generally they don’t come to him on their own, but if asked they’ll jump at the chance to help him.

“The last group is the type 3s, which we classify normal people as. However over time we’ve refined that definition. There are now several subcategories. There are the type 3s who don’t know anything, there are the ones that know something about Alex but don’t cause any problems, then there are those who become part of Alex’s whole movement, taking a very active role in the whole thing.”

“That would include Alex’s sisters, his two girlfriends, and many of his friends from school,” Gail explained. “It would also include the other girls in their sorority.”

“Sorority?” Shanna asked, surprised by the off topic reference.

“Alex’s sister Melinda started a sorority at SIU in order to attract women on campus who were likely to be new followers. His foundation is trying to get charters started in a few different schools. That’s why both Tina and Amy are involved. They helped us get started and they’re trying to start their own chapters.”

“Wow, you people certainly don’t waste any time, do you?” Shanna asked. “How long have you been working on this? It sounds like you’ve been organizing it for several years now.”

Alex, Cate and Gail just looked at each other then each broke out laughing.

“Nope. Alex’s power only showed up when he traveled to New Orleans the first time just three months ago,” Gail told them.

“We’ve been working hard,” Cate explained. “As we’ve described, Alex doesn’t have much time and there are hundreds of things we have to work out. We can’t afford to lose any time being indecisive or overly cautious.”

“Wow, that’s really impressive. I can see I’m going to have to be offering my best game when I get to Carbondale,” Liv responded. “So you were saying, about the various type 3s?”

“Oh, yeah,” Cate answered. “There’s one other category of type 3, although there’s only one case. That appears to be people who have been exposed to Alex and his energy for so long that they’ve developed their own abilities. That one person would be me.” Liv stopped eating and looked up at Cate at this latest information.

“So that’s what you were talking about when you said you ‘absorbed his energy’?” Tina asked.

“Yeah, I’ve been around him for so long, always going to him as a child for comfort rather than my parents, that it seems to have affected me. When Alex...” here Cate hesitated, realizing she’d almost spilled the beans. She suddenly realized how difficult it would be to explain how Alex had boosted her own abilities without everyone asking the obvious question about it. However Liv seemed to be too inquisitive to wait for her response.

“That makes sense. If he triggers new growth within seconds in the type 1s brains, and he did it in Rachel who is a type 2, then it would make sense that he’d have done the same thing to you after years of exposure to the same energy.”

Cate raised an eyebrow at this comment. It made a lot of sense when phrased like that. Maybe it wasn’t so much an inborn talent or another genetic anomaly, as it was just prolonged exposure to Alex triggering a new adaptive growth in her.

“That’s a good way of putting it. Anyway, I seem to have the ability to feel Alex’s energy in other people. And I don’t mean his type of energy either. I mean I can feel the energy that comes from him in other people. Thus I can tell who Alex has spent time with, I can feel his emotions for the person, as well as their emotions for him. Since I feel these emotions so intimately, I tend to internalize them, feeling his emotions for his followers and him as a result. Needless to say, it can result in a bit of confusion,” Cate replied, hoping she’d provided enough of a subtle hint that they wouldn’t be as upset if they eventually learned about her and her brother.

“Yeah, that fits,” Amy said, jumping in. “That’s why you feel compelled to cuddle up with him in the middle of the night. You’re soaking up both his excess energy but also his emotions.”

“So I’m guessing you feel a little sexual charge concerning me and Amy then?” Tina teased.

“Actually, it isn’t so much a sexual charge, since Alex rarely feels simple lust,” Cate explained, getting into the issue. “The physical connection he makes seems to trigger something in each of his followers. Here I suspect he may affect the Watcher’s brains as well, since they each seem to feel real love for each other. As a result, I find that I love each and every one of Alex’s followers, just as he does.”

“Man, this just gets weirder and weirder,” Emma commented.

“Tell me about it,” Gail whispered as an aside.

“Which brings up the last issue,” Cate said, trying to create an opening for a point that Alex had been waiting to discuss. “Periodically Alex manages to increase his abilities. These are usually triggered by significant events like strong adrenaline spurts, but it also includes strong emotional responses.”

“What my sister is trying to tell you, in a subtle way, is that we’ve found that I can boost people’s abilities by making love to them. There needs to be a strong emotional connection, and there needs to be full body contact between us, so oral sex doesn’t count. Since there are so many people involved I tend to avoid it as much as I can, but I try to involve anyone that’s going to be doing anything specific for me, just so they’ll have the additional advantages they’ll need to be successful. Thus I made love to both Tina and Amy so they’d be able to evaluate the hidden motivations of anyone they met in regards to their sorority applications.”

“So that’s why you mentioned wanting to make love to us this evening?” Shanna asked. “I was wondering about that, because you described it almost like an obligation rather than as a seduction. I was a little afraid it was because you were getting jaded by so many women trying to woo you, but it sounds like it’s really an obligation for you.”

“You’d better believe it,” Cate added. “He’s been fooling around with all kinds of people, and it’s hard for him to have to reject anyone, since they’d take it so personally, but he actually puts a lot of consideration into this. He doesn’t do it lightly. If it was up to him, he’d only make love to his girlfriends. But instead he’s got dozens of women he has to make love to, many of whom are willing to wait quite a while to gain an available slot in his schedule.”

“Yeah, it must be tough,” Liv said, rolling her eyes with a smile on her lips before she hesitated. “Wait, did you say ‘girlfriends’?”

Cate laughed. “Yeah, among everything else, Alex has a couple of high school girlfriends. But I’ll tell you about them some other time. That story deserves a discussion all its own.”

“But the point Cate was trying to bring up is that I’d like to make love to both of you tonight, just so you’ll be better able to carry out your tasks, although I certainly wouldn’t complain about the opportunity to appreciate your beauty and charm up close,” Alex added, trying to score a couple of point for charm since he seemed to be running so low on that score lately.

“Hell, yes,” Liv announced without any further prompting. “I’ll definitely sleep with you, and I’d pay good money for the privilege, too. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more attracted to someone. Not to mention how thankful I feel to you for what you’ve done to me. Then, when you add in the extra bonus abilities, whatever they are, I’d be a fool to turn you down.”

“Don’t scoff too easily,” Emma advised her. “Someone just finished rejecting Alex earlier today.”

“Now that I find hard to swallow,” Shanna teased.

Cate’s phone rang, so everyone stopped talking while she answered it.

“Oh, hello Mary. Yeah, he’s doing better now. We’ve managed to feed him, so he’s slowly recovering his strength.”

She paused while she listened to the response before continuing. “No, you shouldn’t have to do anything more. We believe her kidneys should be fine, but let the doctors make sure it’s healthy enough. Just don’t let them try anything that isn’t necessary, like possibly cutting her open to find out what Alex did. That wouldn’t help anyone and would screw up Rachel’s life.”

“Yeah,” Cate replied after another pause, “if you want to teach her about her own abilities, you should take her down to New Orleans. We’ll be down there for the next few days, but anytime you go down there, just ask for either Peter or David. They work in a local coffee shop in the French Quarter, and they’ll be able to give you any information that you need. What’s more they’ll introduce you both to many more people like Rachel who share her abilities. That way you’ll be assured she’s still perfectly normal and she’ll realize she isn’t alone.”

Shanna started trying to get Cate’s attention, and Cate simply help her hand up, telling her to hold on. “Yeah, you’ll both be fine. Just relax and let Rachel be a kid for a while longer. You can give me a call if you need anything, but I think you’ll have plenty of other people you can talk to about it once you’ve visited New Orleans. Now, I’ve got someone that can arrange a visit to New Orleans whenever you want, if you want help. Here, I’ll let you talk and work it out. Take care and I hope that you and Rachel have a wonderful life,” Cate said before she handed her phone to Shanna.

Alex was glad they’d put that issue aside without any difficulties. Mary could have caused trouble if she’d started asking questions.


“Are you sure you’re OK?” Liv asked as she cuddled up against Alex, pressing her naked flesh into his equally naked side.

“Yeah, I ate, rested, and ate again. I think the big danger is if I do too much without eating. Processing the energy my body produces take a lot out of me.”

“You know, someone is going to have to pick a name for that type of energy. How about Alexism energy,” Liv suggested with a giggle.

“How about we name it after Cate?” Alex countered. “After all, she deserves some credit for what she’s done, and it looks like she’ll have to give up her dreams of a Nobel Prize, even if she does deserve it for what she discovers.”

“I don’t think I’ve ever known a young man so reticent about recognition,” Shanna told him as she played with his few chest hairs.

“Well, until about three months ago I was a shy bookworm. I’ve only become social because I had to be,” Alex replied while twirling her hair around his finger in return, turning the gesture into an intimate caress of her cheek. “Now I’m mostly reacting to everyone gushing over me. I’m afraid it’ll give me a complex and go to my head, making me unbearable. Then who would all of you love? Hmm?”

“Seriously, though, let’s not change the subject,” Shanna said. “Cate was really worried about you, and from what she told us about you, there’s good reason for that. Now, are you going to be safe making love with us all night?”

“All night? You’re pretty optimistic. Don’t you still have to pack? We’re going to be driving all day tomorrow, I think I need a little rest sometime,” Alex protested.

“There he goes diverting the topic again,” Liv said. “Actually, he shouldn’t stress himself that much. From what Cate told me, it’s only a problem when he emotionally distances himself and starts actually fucking rather than making love. She says that’s extremely rare for Alex.” Liv was cuddling up on Alex’s other side, her leg thrown over his. She couldn’t actually rub her naked chest against Alex’s, since Shanna was already hogging most of it, but Liv was idly playing with his cock as they spoke. She was currently thinking more about his cock than she was about the ongoing conversation, imagining what the feeling of an Alex energy fueled orgasm would feel like.

“That’s also why Cate sent us in here with a bag full of groceries for me to eat afterwards,” Alex reminded them. “I think I’ll be OK. Besides, as Liv says, I prefer taking my time and really getting to know the people I make love to. The boost seems to be related to the amount of emotional involvement I have with someone, rather than to the sex act itself. I doubt I’d boost a hooker on the street if I engaged in that sort of thing. In order to boost someone, I really need a combination of a strong emotional interest, a decent amount of sex appeal, and a hell of a lot of timing to achieve an almost perfect simultaneous orgasm.”

“Oh, I don’t know,” Shanna replied. “I suspect if you found a type 1 prostitute you’d love her just like you’re planning to do for us.”

“Don’t get me started,” he warned her. “There’s a whole host of problems associated with that scenario. I worry about it happening, though, so I’ve thought about it quite a bit.”

“I’m sure your friend Allison would object to that. There are escorts, there are high class prostitutes, and then there are street walkers. I think most of the higher end types keep themselves pretty clean,” Liv suggested. “At least, the one’s I’ve treated seem to be.”

Alex thought that last comment deserved more discussion, but he was having trouble focusing on the topic as Shanna was pressing her tits into his chest and Liv was slowly jerking his cock with her hand.

“You know, I think I like the idea that the Native American’s had of changing one’s name based upon what happens to you,” Liv said, changing the topic once again. “I’m a Sikh, just in case you haven’t guessed yet. I’m thinking I should legally change my name since all this happened to me. I’m thinking Anadjot would be a good name. After all, it’s a traditional Sikh name that seems to apply to me all of a sudden.”

“Oh really,” Alex asked, “and just what does Anadjot mean?”

“It means ‘one who radiates the Lord’s light’,” she explained, attempting to look at him. “Given that you’re now my own personal lord, and that you are filled with light, I think it’s fitting.”

“Yeah, but it hardly slips off the tongue. I think I like Liv better. It’s easier to pronounce and it’s close to ‘live’, which is always a nice idea. By the way, since you seem to know the etymology of Sikh names, what does Liv mean?”

“It means ‘focused and dedicated’, like someone who is focused on what they’re doing, just like I am now,” she said as she gave his cock a gentle squeeze. Alex sighed, but he refused to be dissuaded just yet.

“Personally, I think Liv is a better choice, as it describes the personality that got you to where you are,” Alex told her, squeezing her tight buns in an effort to distract her work on his cock. “You’re focused on your medicine, which you need to be. I want you to become a world renowned surgeon, applying that same dedication in applying your new vision to your surgery. I need someone who’s focused, much more than I need someone who only focuses on what a dim bulb I really am.”

“Ha,” responded Shanna, reaching up and kissing him on the cheek. “You’re hardly a dim bulb. You’re nearly as bright as your sister. In fact, I’m sure you would equal her if you dedicated yourself to the topic like she does. But I think I prefer you focusing on this mission of yours instead.”

“And what does your name mean, Shanna?” he asked, turning and kissing her lightly on the lips. He knew they were both getting antsy, but it had almost become a game now. They couldn’t seem to stop talking, and he knew the longer he kept them talking the hornier they’d get.

“Very funny, Alex. You know very well Shanna is just the Americanization of my real name, which is Sanaa. But it means brilliance, though it also means ‘art’ in Swahili.”

“Well, since you aren’t African I think we’ll stick with the intended meaning,” Alex replied, reaching behind her to squeeze her buns as well with his other hand. As he squeezed both girls’ asses, they pressed their thighs tighter against his. “By the way,” he asked, continuing the teasing discussion, “what does your last name, Shenouda, mean? And did I pronounce it correctly?”

“You did better than most Americans do, and surprisingly it also fits, since it means a ‘slave of God’. I always thought it was a stupid name, but now I think it fits pretty well. I’ll bet my parents never dreamed just how apt their name would become,” she teased him right back.

“All right, let’s drop all this God talk,” he warned them playfully. “I think you two are the exceptions, since you didn’t accuse me of being an angel or a reincarnated Jesus, so let’s keep that going. I’m not a god, and I have no desire to be.”

“Yeah, but according to Gail and Anh you seem to be guided by either God, spirits, or beings from another dimension. With that many mythical beings supporting you, I don’t think anyone wants to get on your bad side,” Liv teased. “Now, Shanna, I think we’ve been talking long enough. I seem to have this mysterious fleshy pole going to waste in my hand. Can you think of any better uses we could put it to?”

“Um hum,” Shanna answered as she kissed Alex seriously, her other hand snaking down to wrap around Alex’s shaft just above Liv’s hand, which was currently jacking Alex’s cock. Luckily for him their motions weren’t coordinated, so her joining in actually delayed his excitement a bit.

Seeing as how Shanna didn’t get the message, Liv pulled back, disengaging from Alex until she maneuvered low enough to lick along his shaft. Shanna, feeling Liv’s face pressed against her hand, shifted it and wrapped it around his side. Alex, suddenly finding his left hand free, wrapped it around Shanna’s breast.

Shanna had larger breasts and more curves than his other girls had, and he appreciated the contrast. He loved small breasts, so Cate’s were still a delight for him, but he’d learned to appreciate the difference so many women offered him. It had taken a while to not make contrasts, comparing one against the other, but he’d gotten better at it over time. Now he focused on the benefits of each, trying mightily to ignore similarities or differences between those not present. However, at the moment his mind was overcome with other thoughts, or more accurately non-thoughts, as Liv wrapped her lips around his organ and started going down on him.

Alex sighed, which Shanna found delightful, as his moan echoed throughout her mouth as they continued to kiss. Shanna had never been involved in a threesome before, thinking they were a purely male fantasy, but she’d recently rethought that belief, as of today. Now it seemed not only natural to join someone else in making love to someone they both loved, but she was enjoying what it added to her own level of arousal. She had never thought of herself as bisexual, in any sense of the word, but she found the contrast between Alex’s hairy muscular legs and Liv’s softer but almost equally muscled legs rather intoxicating.

It wasn’t that Shanna suddenly wanted to make love to another woman, but the contrast between the two extremes teased her senses, and the idea that both of them were worshipping Alex’ body at the same time just made it all the more exciting. What she’d once thought of as a disgusting male fantasy suddenly seemed like a natural extension of her love for this young man who had won her fancy.

Liv, meanwhile, was applying her namesake dedication by focusing on what she was doing, surrendering all conscious thoughts in her appreciation of Alex’s cock as she slid it in and out of her mouth, marveling how it seemed both plain and extraordinary at the same time. Even though she’d seen both bigger and more impressive ones over the years, somehow this one seems to dwarf the others she’d encountered. In fact, although no one mentioned it, she could swear she could feel his energy vibrating through his cock alongside his heartbeat as her lips slid over it. She wondered whether his cum had any energy in it she could absorb, but that was about the extent of her thinking at the moment.

Alex was caught up in his own battle with several overwhelming sensations, although he was a bit more used to handling circumstances like this. Liv was doing wonderful things to his dick, she really had a wonderful technique, which was different than that used by either Anh or Allison, the two reigning champions of fellatio in his household. She had this way of lightly scratching the surface with her teeth, not enough to hurt, but just enough to further heighten the sensations he was feeling. It was certainly an unusual technique, but one he’d remember for quite some time. He didn’t think he’d suggest it to anyone else, though, as images of tooth scratches to his cock made his balls retract temporarily.

Meanwhile Shanna was busy sucking his face as she proceeded to hump his leg. He could feel just how excited she was by how damp his leg was becoming, both of their hands keeping busy as well. His playing with her full hefty breasts, hers running around his chest playing with the various muscles she found there. Cate, Allison and Gail had each been pushing Alex to begin an exercise regimen lately, hoping to fend off even more damage to his health, and that exercise, plus his own growth over the last couple of months, had paid off in a few more defined muscles than he had before, although that regime was going to be hard to keep up on the road.

Breaking off his kiss with Shanna, Alex warned the good doctor, “You’d best hold off there, Liv, else I’m going to spoil everyone’s night by coming too soon.” However she was so focused on her task it took a minute for the meaning of his words to sink into her brain. She was reluctant to give it up, since she seemed to be drawing both excitement and an overall feeling of wellbeing from it at the moment. Letting it escape her lips with a wet popping sound, she slid up his body to discover Shanna trying to swallow him whole with her kisses.

Liv laughed softly to herself, since Shanna was so involved with their kiss that she was missing her better position to claim him first. As Shanna continued to hump his thigh, Liv gently moved her aside and threw her leg over him, only to slide down on his cock. She swore softly to herself, both literally and figuratively, as she was sure the waves of energy coming off his cock made it expand to fit her vagina. It, like the rest of him, seemed to be a heaven sent miracle that defied all human sensibilities.

She slowly eased down, allowing him to slide further inside her, filling her up. She pressed both hands against his chest, taking in the definition in his pectorals as she used them to leverage herself in the time honored up and down motion, even as she altered it with her own swirling motion she’d discovered could stimulate her own senses enough to help her achieve an orgasm though normal intercourse. However, she reminded herself, this was anything besides ‘normal’ intercourse.

“Uh, as much fun as this is,” Alex told her, gripping her hips, “from all accounts we need full body contact for this to work.” With that he rolled them both over, pulling him free from Shanna’s caresses. Liv found herself suddenly pressed down into the bed as Alex began taking the lead in their little dance. Normally she had always liked taking the lead role in sex, since she knew how to stimulate her clit while she was in charge of the action, but she had to acknowledge the other girls were right, even though she hadn’t met any of them. The feelings she was receiving from Alex pumping into her were way superior to anything she could have achieved on her own. She instantly fell in love with this most basic of positions, and she swore to herself she’d give up on her cowgirl superior preference to this new missionary position. Her nipples, which she’d long considered one of her best features because of how long and sensitive they were, were stimulated both by his hairy chest as well as by the sensations running through her. She thought she could probably orgasm just from the feelings running through her, even without any physical contact, but the two combined were a purely wonderful sensation.

Shanna, meanwhile, slid over Alex’s side trying to regain her own contact with him. She found she could apply his in and out motions to herself as she once again slid her leg over and between his, pressing her pussy against his thigh and riding it much like she had long ridden pillows at home, unable to sneak any boys into the room she shared in her parents’ house. However, there was so much else going on. As her hands snaked over his skin, they went from his side, where she could feel his labored breath, to Liv’s softer skin on her side and yes, even her breast, which Shanna found oddly sexy as her fingers splayed over it. She ran her hands up both sides as her hand covered Alex’s and Liv’s neck to play with both the tensing and relaxing muscles there, and the rewarding teasing she could apply to both their ears. She leaned in and whispered to both of them.

“Give it to her good, Alex, she’s been a bad girl, and only the punishing application of a good stiff prick will satisfy her baser instincts.”

Shanna was well aware of her conflicted feelings about her dirty talk. She’d managed to internalize her parents’ long expressed feelings of how dirty sex was by reveling in the feelings of shame it produced. She always thought of herself as a ‘dirty girl’ who could only be satisfied by a good solid punishing, much like her father applied to her mother, only after he finally lost control of his baser instincts. When they were younger, living in a small shack with almost paper thin walls, she’d frequently hear their arguments as her father would accuse her mother of forcing him to ravage her, as her own cries of surrendered lust rang out over the small household.

Of course, she hadn’t been the only one listening to the sounds of her parents’ ruttings. Her brothers did too, and for days thereafter they’d let their hands roam and grab at her as she walked past, and she’d been so frustrated she almost let them do as they desired. But she had never wanted to reward them with her hidden treasures, because, just like the many Disney princesses she’d patterned herself after, she had wanted a mysterious prince to suddenly appear, ravage her with his strange ethnic good looks, and carry her off somewhere strange and wonderful.

And here she was, in a strange and wonderful land where sex was both openly discussed and condemned, where her family still railed about the sins of unbridled lust while they themselves engaged in it at every opportunity. She had slowly learned to apply her own feelings of guilt and sinfulness into a heightened sexuality by portraying them as corrective coercion. She wanted to be taken and abused, but more than anything, she wanted the taker to be Alex. She truly wanted to be a slave to this new god of hers, just as her name had long proclaimed her to be. If such a life included many fellow wives and only a few occasional trysts with her lover, she’d accept it, because she could feel, just like Liv was, the benefits of full body contact while Alex made love with them both.

She knew her psyche was well and properly screwed up, but the orgasms she’d found she could achieve by subverting the feelings of guilt had long proven too impossible to ignore. Indeed, she knew it was herself that was the dirty girl, deserving of the punishing rod of her avenging angel Alex, drilling her into the bed in punishment for her sinful thoughts and actions. Damn, just these thoughts were enough to achieve an orgasm.

But, more and more, Shanna found these thoughts were sidelined rather than forced to prominence. The sensations she was receiving from both partners, but mainly from the tingling sensations of being physically connected skin-to-skin with Alex, overwhelmed her, regardless of any fantasies she may have used previously. She found she could abandon the make believe world she’d always used to justify herself and overcome the hesitant fumblings of her partners. Now she could just let herself go and enjoy the sensations she was feeling, even if she wasn’t the one currently being screwed. Somehow, not being screwed by Alex was the most sexually fulfilling experience she’d ever achieved, and forbidden fantasies seemed to be completely immaterial.

Alex, though, had no idea of the internal struggles of his two lovers. He, like Liv, was focusing on the here and now, on making love to the two beautiful women who were currently gifting him with their love. He was once again amazed that these two beautiful creatures would allow him to do what he was doing. He knew the reason they did had little to do with his looks, his personality or his own desirability. He knew that if he had never left his small town he’d still be a virgin to this day, never getting up the nerve to make a move on a girl, yet the selfsame abilities that drew these women to him also managed to keep them more than satisfied with his self-perceived inadequate performance. Shanna wasn’t the only one with difficult issues of self perception.

Alex was trying to work Liv up to a slow crescendo, since he knew she needed an overwhelming orgasm for him to do what he need to in her brain. She’d already had several minor orgasms, yet those never seemed to have the effect needed. Instead it was the mind-melting simultaneous orgasm accompanied by their full body sharing of his cast off energy that triggered the increased abilities she needed now. And he was working to give her just that kind of orgasm.

In fact, if he wasn’t mistaken, he was pretty sure Shanna had achieved a couple of smaller orgasms herself, as she continued to hump his leg. He was glad he could rely on the energy his body gave off to satisfy these women, because he had no doubt he’d be unable to keep up with so many women without some unnatural assistance.

As they got closer and closer, Liv started mumbling his name, calling on him to ‘anoint her with his love and make her into his new creation’. Boy, she must have a good mind if she could think of such descriptive things to call out during sex, Alex thought. But he tried to fulfill her desires. As he pumped harder and harder into her, her moaning become throatier and more disjointed until she finally started shrieking, then crying out. Finally he shoved home hard, drilling his firm dick into her love slickened pussy, and he proceeded to ejaculate wildly into her as Shanna clutched him from behind and echoed his thrusts with her own.

Liv shrieked her loudest in a wordless sound before her eyes rolled up in her head and she passed out in a shivering mass of excited nerve endings. Shanna had stopped suggesting how dirty everyone was some time ago, but she was currently moaning in his ear as she gave a lesser cry of her own and she bit his shoulder as she began shuddering in her own orgasm. Luckily she hadn’t passed out.

They lay there in a weak and tired heap and allowed themselves to slowly come down from their sexual heights. Alex was just starting to move, trying to take some of his and Shanna’s combined weight off of Liv so he could check to ensure she was still breathing, when the door rattled. Turning to look the door swung inward and Gail slowly entered. However, she appeared to be moving too slowly for Cate, who shoved past the slower moving ex-cop.

“Well, that sounds like you burned off even more energy that you normally do,” Cate said as she handed her brother a cold can of Coke from the machine down the hall. Alex shifted, lifting Shanna and him off of Liv, who Cate could now see was out of it, although she continued to shiver in post orgasmic delight.

“Damn, I’ve got to try that sometime,” she observed, referring to Liv’s reactions rather than making love to her brother, which she wasn’t about to reveal at the moment.

“Are they OK?” Gail asked nervously.

“They will be as soon as I can get my Lothario brother to eat something,” she answered back. Alex managed to sit up and finally took hold of the cold beverage, using it to cool off his forehead before taking a long drink from it. While he was doing that Shanna was checking to see if Liv was still with them. She gently cuddled her new sister, trying to ease her slowing shivering.

“Do you always come in to administer last rights to your naked brother?” Shanna asked Cate teasingly.

“Actually, she didn’t want to come in, since she was afraid it would freak you out,” Gail explained as she started to take the food out of the grocery bag where he’d left it earlier. “But I was taking so long opening the door after that wild orgasms that the whole floor could hear, she shoved me aside to make sure Alex hadn’t overexerted himself.”

“Yeah, as you can guess, I’ve seen my brother naked a few times,” Cate told Shanna as she fed him a couple of KitKat bars. She didn’t bother going into any more detail than that, though, as she didn’t want the whole world to know about her and her brother. “You can’t live around our house without seeing plenty of naked people around all the time.”

“Besides, I should have warned you ahead of time,” Alex tried to say between bites. “Chances are, if you stay over tonight, she’ll probably sneak in and cuddle up with me tonight.”

Shanna sat up somewhat, now that Liv was starting to come around, in order to take in this newest information about Alex.

“It’s an energy absorption thing,” Cate told them, hoping they wouldn’t jump to the obvious, and true, conclusion. “I’ve been doing it since I was little, and once you get that used to it, it’s hard to give up just because he’s sleeping with other people.”

Liv took that moment to moan as her eyes flickered open, so all eyes turned towards her.

“Geez, you sure know how to win over your lovers, Alex,” Cate told him. “You really don’t have to work that hard. In case you haven’t guessed, these two were yours long before you got them into bed.”

“Is necessary,” he got out between bites, since Cate was still shoving things into his mouth. “The whole simultaneous orgasm thing, remember?”

“Yeah, yeah, I remember. Shanna, how about you get her a damp washcloth while I keep feeding this love crazed baboon here,” she added, still annoyed her brother continued to worry her so much.

“You really don’t need to worry so much,” Alex said, pushing Cate away from him so he could do something besides try to chew everything she was shoving down his throat. “In case you’ve forgotten, I’ve got pretty good recuperative power. I think I’m sufficiently recovered from earlier today.”

“Yeah, but I’m not,” Cate protested. “I’m not going to be over that until I see you fully recovered for a while.”

“Speaking of recovery,” Liv moaned, trying to sit up to see what was going on, “what truck just ran me over, and could someone get me a repeat engagement to be run over like that again?”

“Yeah, Alex certainly does a number his first time. I’ve never had one of those super-duper initiation orgasms before, but they can be pretty wild.” Once Cate realized what she’d unintentionally admitted to she blushed heavily, but everyone else was too preoccupied to have paid it much attention.

“Try speaking to Gail,” Alex told Liv, holding her hand while fending off Cate’s continued attempts to feed him.

“Could you get me on a repeating schedule with Alex, Gail?” Liv teased, taking Alex literally.

“Telepathically,” Alex insisted, although he knew she was just playing.

“Yep, it works. I’m officially ‘boosted’. Wow, that’s neat.”

“Now try Anh, then Allison,” Alex instructed her. “You should remember them from when I had you contact them earlier.” By then Shanna had returned and started wiping Liv’s forehead and face.

“Man, you could certainly put AT&T out of business. I get much better reception this way than I do with the best landline or cell phone I’ve ever tried,” Liv announced in surprise.

“That’s because it’s full featured. You can feel their emotions, hear their thoughts and see what they’re imagining. It’s really handy when you’re away from home,” Alex explained.

“Man, I can’t wait until it’s my turn,” Shanna commented as she vainly tried to cover Liv with the sheet. However she quickly gave up, as it was twisted up amongst the various bodies. “Man, I’m still buzzing from my own orgasms. If I can come that hard and still not qualify, I can’t imagine what I’ll be like after you do me.”

“I think I’ve recovered enough, Shanna,” Liv announced, “you’ve stopped wiping my chest and now you’re just teasing the nipples. I think you’re right, you’re still turned on. Alex, we’ve got to do something about this poor girl.”

“I think that’s my cue to head back next door,” Gail announced. As she did, everyone watched her stand up, and they noticed Amy and Tina watching them wordlessly from the door.

“Come on in,” Liv laughed, “the more the merrier. Though I suspect Alex may take a little longer before he can finish what he started.”

“I wouldn’t bet on that if I were you,” Cate told her. “Alex frequently continues through his first orgasm without even slowing down. I’ve almost had to physically tackle him just to get him to eat something.”

Liv, Shanna and Alex each glanced at this unintended slip on Cate’s part, though Alex was glad to see the unintended gaffe wasn’t entirely his domain. It made him feel better about all the information he’d let slip over the past several weeks.

“So I take it this isn’t the first time you’ve had to feed your brother, though it sounds like you didn’t have to get out of bed to do it before,” Shanna replied. Cate blushed again.

“As I said before, I frequently sleep with him after he finishes. That often times means I’m there when he gets started again,” she added, only admitting to half the truth. Alex wasn’t sure whether the other girls believed her or not, but they didn’t say anything.

Tina and Amy came and sat on the bed, although Cate noticed Tina’s eyes were busy switching between Alex’s semi-tumescent cock and Liv’s still erect nipples. She had to admit to herself that Liv had some terrific looking nipples. Cate could feel herself unconsciously licking her lips as she imagined wrapping her lips around them. Realizing what she was doing she snapped out of it.

“I should probably go too,” she announced unhappily.

“You don’t have to, Cate,” Shanna told her, noticing her tone of voice. “After all, as Liv said earlier, Alex isn’t quite ready to go yet. You can stay and watch over him for a bit longer. Besides, if you’ve seen him perform naked before, I’m sure you’ve already seen plenty of him, so you won’t be shocked to see it again.”

“Hell, we’ve seen Alex perform before,” Tina admitted, “but it was nothing compared to what we heard you two shouting about. I mean, Alex is a terrific lover, but we never lost consciousness before after screaming the roof down.” Liv blushed heavily hearing what a spectacle she’d made of herself. However, the blush extended all the way down her chest, making her already erect nipples tingle all the more.

“That’s because he didn’t do brain surgery on you as you orgasmed,” Cate informed Tina. “It tends to make a bit of a difference.”

“As does the energy you can feel pumping into you,” Liv admitted.

“Amen to that, sister,” Shanna echoed. “I was coming at a steady pace, and I wasn’t even involved.”

“Not involved? Was I confused, or was it someone else that was humping his leg like a racehorse while he was screwing me?” Liv asked Shanna.

“Excuse me, I don’t screw anyone,” Alex insisted.

“You could have fooled me, you certainly did when...” Cate started to say, only to catch herself much too late.

“Go ahead and say it, Cate, you’ve already admitted to everything else,” Shanna suggested.

“He just gets carried away sometimes, which is why I was checking up on him. He’s had a bit of a medical emergency as a result of when he gets like that.”

“I think you spoke too soon,” Amy told Liv and Shanna as she reached over and ran her hand up and down Alex’s almost fully erect cock. It was drooping slightly, arching over like a water faucet, however it certainly firmed up under her hand. “Alex seems about ready for the second act.”

“Hey, hands off the merchandise,” Shanna teased. “The next mind blowing orgasm around here is mine.”

“Sure thing, but you don’t mind if I get him started for you, do you?” Amy asked with a smile, as she leaned over and took him into her mouth. She moaned as she went down on him and everyone watched her as she did.

“Damn, I don’t care if he is my brother,” Cate told everyone present, “that is not going to encourage me to leave.” Alex didn’t think she was fooling anyone, but he was too busy moaning himself to measure everyone else’s response to the statement.

Amy’s head bobbed up and down a few times before she released him with a smack of her lips. She reached over and wrapped Cate’s hand around his shaft as she stood up. “That should do it,” she stated. “We’ve already had our share of him, the rest of you should enjoy him for a while,” she said as she and Tina left, though Amy had to lead her friend away by the hand. The door closed behind them.

Still self conscious, Cate immediately jerked her hand away.

“That hot, huh?” Shanna teased.

“I think I’ll just watch for a bit, to make sure he’s recovered enough, you understand,” Cate said as she backed up to the spare bed.

“That’s fine, I think we’ll find something to distract ourselves with,” Liv replied as she reached down and grasped the spare cock Cate had left wobbling in the air. She started jacking it, ensuring it was fully erect as Shanna crawled back into bed. “I think you were looking for a place to put this,” she offered.

“That’s OK,” Alex replied. “I don’t like to jump into the middle of things. I always like to start slowly. As my sister observed, I sometimes get into trouble when I skip the important preliminary steps.”

“Fine,” Shanna responded. “Let’s start with the basics then. I could use another dinner and a show,” she teased.

“Not quite that basic. I was thinking we could start with some kissing,” Alex replied as she started kissing her, making sure to not leave Liv alone. Once again, Alex’s familiarity with fooling around with multiple women came in handy as they proceeded to make out at the same time. As Alex drew Shanna down so he could better access her breasts, Liv moved down and licked Shanna’s breast. Noticing her jump a little as a result, Liv sought to reassure her.

“Don’t worry, Shanna, I’m not doing this out of any lesbian tendencies or anything. Numerous people have theorized that the desire to play with boobies has its roots in the mother/child period of child development. Women have the same early childhood developmental issues, so it makes sense we’d have the same impulses,” she answered with a smile, just before she took Shanna’s left nipple in her mouth and began suckling. Breaking off for a moment she continued. “You know, I think all those little boys have got a point, this is a hell of a lot of fun,” and she went back to study the phenomenon in more detail.

Meanwhile Alex continued to kiss Shanna, preventing her from protesting too vociferously, although she hardly felt like complaining much, given how nice it felt, but if Alex hadn’t been there she would have felt obligated to say something. Alex’s left hand was playing with Shanna’s other breast, while he caressed Liv with his other hand.

They made out for a little longer before Alex pulled back, giving everyone a chance to breathe again.

“Want to come up here and try kissing your friend?” Alex asked. “It might be your last chance for a while.”

Liv pulled back and looked at Shanna. Despite her own lack of lesbian tendencies, she was greatly tempted. She’d always wondered what those girls who kissed each other saw in it, and this was the perfect opportunity to find out. But one look at Shanna’s slightly panicky eyes told her that this wasn’t the time.

“No thanks, I’m enjoying what I’m doing at the moment. Just tell me to move over if you need access, though,” she told Alex. Alex simply laughed, while Shanna felt a wave of relief wash over her. But the idea, however forbidden, had edged up her excitement a bit, so she pulled Alex back down and proceeded to make out with him a bit more.

Finally Alex started to shift down, hoping to join Liv for a moment, then potentially move a bit farther south.

“Nuh uh, buddy,” Shanna warned him. “Everyone warned me not to let you do that. As nice as a little cunnilingus is, they say it’s nothing compared to what you offer otherwise. So I’ll respectfully decline. I want you up here, and I think we’re about ready to do something a little more advanced.”

“Nee mre mo mrov?” Liv asked, not yet willing to disengage her mouth.

“You’re a spoil sport,” Alex playfully pouted. “You realize no one lets me do that anymore. And I really like doing it, too.”

“That just goes to show that I’m right,” Cate shouted from across the room. “You have no powers of mind control. It’s all in that little head of your, so occupy it some other way and stop talking about what you can and can’t do. We all know what you’re going to do.”

Alex merely grumbled, then playfully nudged Liv. “Hey, move over so a boy can do the other childhood obsession that all boys share.” She moved aside, but didn’t release her liplock on Shanna’s breast.

“Imma gowa kwim ahowlla thrissh for a mif, K?” she asked.

“Sure, take as long as you want. Though it may be a bit hard to hold onto in another few minutes,” Alex warned her.

Shanna was about to make a comment about having him punish this dirty girl, but she suddenly realized she had no desire to follow her usual sexual routine. She didn’t want anything hard and fast. Instead she really wanted him to take his time. Damn, if his moving that slow blew Liv’s head off like that, then she’d take his slow and steady any day. She didn’t think she’d ever seen anyone cum so hard before, in real life or in porn videos.

Alex carefully slotted himself, then lay back atop her, still giving Liv room to play. He resumed kissing her as he slowly slid himself inside of her. Shanna moaned in appreciation and lifted her legs, giving him ample room. Liv, feeling helpful, finally let her captive nipple free and grabbed her friend’s thigh, helping to position it for her.

Alex took the new position to thrust more easily into Shanna, keeping the motions slow and steady, and he slid in and out making long slow full motions, driving it in to the hilt, only to pull back almost to the point of it falling out. One time it did, and Liv quickly grabbed it, putting it back into position before Alex put it back where it belonged. Liv felt especially naughty wrapping her hand around Alex’s love slickened pole covered in her new friend’s juices. When she thought no one was looking she licked her palm, only to notice Cate watching her from the other bed. While she blushed, Cate blew her an imaginary kiss and winked at her. Liv blushed even harder.

Instead of trying to get Alex to move faster, Shanna was appreciating Alex’s slow easy motions. It felt much more relaxing, and she was already feeling her skin, as it seemed to be alive with a tingling sensation. As a result she pulled Alex down against her, trying to get more of the skin-on-skin contact everyone had told her was necessary. Liv took all this in as she allowed her hands to wander, one running across Shanna’s thigh, across Alex’s ass and up his back, while her other hand played around her own thigh.

Damn, this is sexy as hell, she thought to herself. Even as hard as I came before, they’re both getting me going. And from the looks of it, Cate certainly seems to be enjoying the show as well. And who can blame her, she asked herself. If I was her, I’d certainly be hot to trot regardless of who it was conducting such sexual magic. Still, she got a little shiver thinking she detected a bit more interest from Cate than she had from Shanna. She knew she wouldn’t be around after tomorrow, but she wondered what it would be like to sleep with Cate. Did she have any of Alex’s magic? Could she use the energy she took from her brother to do any of the same things he seemed able to do?

Alex and Shanna were slowly working themselves up. Even though she didn’t really need to, Shanna worked her hand in between them and started frigging herself as Alex made slow love to her. When Alex broke their kiss in order to regain his breath, since they were both breathing so hard, Shanna glanced at Liv and noticed how beautiful she looked as she rubbed her sweat dampened skin. She watched the same hand run up Liv’s side and begin playing with her breast, and Shanna thought how jealous she felt of that hand, and how she could surely do a much better job than Liv’s own hand could. However she had to abandon that train of thought, as Alex’s continually intruding cock brought her mind back to what was important.

She marveled that a man this young had such expertise and such a soft, light touch. She assumed the sheer number of women everyone talked about his sleeping with had something to do with it, as did his magical energy, but she suspected there was also simply a lot of tenderness and love in Alex that highlighted everything else he did. Despite just having met them earlier today, Alex already loved them both, and they both deeply loved him. Shanna knew she’d dedicate her life to Alex, she’d known that after only talking to him for a short while, but she was reminded as she once more felt his love wash over her like a large fluffy blanket, warming her very soul and comforting the large empty spot in her that had always threatened her. Now that hole seemed miniscule, hardly noticeable, and she suspected she could fill it full of the knowledge of Alex’s love whenever she needed to in the future. That made her feel even better. Damn, how much better can I keep feeling, she asked herself.

Alex started stoking a bit harder, as both of their breaths became a bit heavier. Shanna was still pulling him tighter against her while holding his hips, Liv’s hands once more playing with the both of them since she’d lain down beside them. The difference in the sensation of their hands was amazing, and she again wondered how far those differences extended, as she continued to find her friend amazingly sexy. She knew a lot of long closed doors in her mind were slowly opening wide, opened by Alex’s love and his, Liv and Cate’s concern for them both.

Alex had to prop himself up on his hands in order to get the angle he needed, as he was starting to tire. Shanna missed the press of his body against her, as the skin seemed to cry out in its absence. She knew that was silly, but it was such a strong mental image she couldn’t deny it. Liv’s hand made up for some of the loss, as it quickly eased into the space between Alex’s and her body, running over her damp skin, touching places only male lovers had ever touched before. Liv’s touch was electrifying. Not like Alex’s at all, but still intriguing all its own, and added to what she was feeling from Alex it made for a complex mess she knew she’d be trying to analyze for months.

Alex’s strokes got shorter as his pace increased once more. He was making shorter thrusts into her, and she realized they were both getting closer to the big event. She realized belatedly that her body had, and was currently going through, several mini-orgasms that were each much more than she’d felt with her other lovers, and she marveled at that thought. She knew she was headed for a massive one, one by which all others would pale in comparison. She also realized it was silly making such comparisons, since she knew this one would be due to physical changes to her brain, but she also knew she’d compare each and every lover for the rest of her life against this moment, even Alex, though she suspected Alex would manage to rise to the challenge, even as she doubted that no one else ever would.

Alex, growing weary, collapsed down on her again, Liv only just removing her hand in time. Liv transferred her hand to Alex’s ass as he continued thrusting into Shanna, his pace growing faster and more erratic. Shanna felt the beginnings of what she intuitively knew was the mother of all orgasms. She could feel her skin rippling with Alex’s energy, her nipples felt like they were near to bursting, and her lungs couldn’t draw in enough air for the scream she knew was building up in her.

Alex’s pace became even faster and more frantic, and she felt him shaking as he held her to him. Trying to help him, she raised her own pelvis and strained to hold onto him each time he withdrew from her. She could feel sweat dripping down her skin and pooling in unexpected places, but she didn’t give a damn. Nor did she worry about what dripped off of Alex, either. Somehow, anything that came from Alex seemed simply divine, whatever it might be.

Somehow the thought of Alex’s potential divinity drove Shanna’s excitement even higher, even though she knew it was a falsehood. Here she was, making love to the most amazing man anyone was likely to know, the future father of an entire race of man, and a man who would singlehandedly change the future of a whole people. With that thought in mind, she felt Alex pull back and shove into her hard and she felt a hot shooting motion in her lower belly and she knew he was coming and suddenly it felt like the top of her head was exploding. She felt joy, excitement and happiness without bounds. She felt all was right with the world, and that she’d never again feel such happiness in her life, but she was too happy to be concerned with such a foreign concept. She idly recognized that she seemed to be screaming, although she had no conscious awareness of doing it. Almost in slow motion, she noticed Alex’s amazing glow begin to diminish as she felt her eyes roll to the back of her head and she slowly lost consciousness in the grandest experience a woman, no, any human, could ever experience. She felt her consciousness leave her body as if carried away on a receding wave of beauty and happiness, and she bid it a joyful ma'as salaama.
