Outback Love

8AM

“Nahh Bro, that fulla you chased outta here, he’s bad news.” Kiwi, was pacing the now empty front bar.

“We didn’t chase him out Kiwi, we helped the women out.” Anton corrected him.

Kiwi looked at the bar man who nodded.

“Ok, we’re gonna leave as early as possible tomorrow. We get the cars, we pick up the kit and then we leave ok. Derek here can say you were travellers and you moved on.” Kiwi went on, looking at the barman as he spoke.

“Kiwi, you know what we are…” Luke began.

Kiwi held up his hand for silence. He began to take off his clothes and shoes and then they heard the familiar sound of bones repositioning. Kiwi however, dd not end up on all four legs like they did. They stared in confusion as Kiwi shifted to a large, ape like being with long teeth that protruded from his mouth. His body was completely covered in hair and his face resembled both ape and man. He stood well over 7ft tall.

“Maero?” Luke breathed staring at him. He was truly frightening.

Kiwi turned around and shifted once again into his human form, quickly putting his clothes back on.

“Watcha think aye? Scary fulla?” Kiwi asked.

“Uh, yes.” Luke replied.

“Well, I’m scared of that fulla you crossed tonight bro. He’s mean and he has connections.” Kiwi was clearly agitated.

Luke nodded. “We will follow your advice Kiwi; you know this situation best.”

Kiwi nodded. “I’ll be back tomorrow around 8am. Car yard doesn’t open til 9am. I’ve ordered everything we need, and it should be ready first thing tomorrow. We have our phones, so I say we just hit the road. We can be in Radelaide by 6pm, maybe 7pm at the latest.”

“Radelaide?” Emily asked.

“It’s Adelaide but it’s rad. Get it?” Kiwi asked.

“Radelaide, right.” Emily smiled.

Kiwi walked towards the door. “8am.” He said as he walked out the door.

Emily headed for the stairs and made her way back to her room. She took off her dress and shoes and crawled into bed. She could hear the men talking outside, discussing whether they thought they needed a guard. They decided on 2hourly rotations, so everyone got enough sleep to take a turn of driving the next day.

Luke opened the door and walked in quietly, sitting on a chair to take off his shoes. He removed his socks and Tshirt and went to get into bed beside Emily. He wasn’t even touching her, and he had an erection. She was killing him.

“Sleeping in jeans?” Emily mumbled.

“Yep.” Luke smiled.

He slid in beside her and wrapped her up in his embrace. She sighed contentedly as she wriggled back into him as close as she could get.

“This feels nice.” She murmured sleepily.

“It does.” He smiled as they both fell asleep.

The next morning their alarms went off at 7am. Luke groaned as he woke. His arm was numb and for a moment he was disorientated. Then he remembered where he was and who he was with and smiled.

“Wake up almost birthday girl.” He whispered in her ear.

She groaned as she began to wake. “Can I just stay here?” She asked.

“Well, you could but I’m taking the credit cards with me.” He smiled.

She rolled over in his arms and snuggled into him. “We could spend the day in bed.” She whispered into his chest.

“You know we have to get moving.” He smiled. He kissed her forehead before making a move to get up.

“Five more minutes?” She asked seductively, licking her lip.

“Not if you’re going to do that.” He winked, jumping up before she could grab him again.

He made his way into the bathroom, closing the door behind him. He smiled as he undressed and turned the shower on.

He stepped into the shower and let the warm water fall over his body. Being here had felt so different to him, it had helped him feel alive again. He missed Blane so much and the thought of identifying his body made him physically ill but this country… There was just something about it.

He was so deep in thought he didn’t hear the door open, but he felt the light touch on his back. He smiled as he turned around.

“I thought we were trusting the process?” Luke smiled.

“I don’t know about you, but I’m here for a shower.” She smiled innocently in return.

Luke sighed as he made room for her in the small shower stall. He picked up her soap and squeezed some out onto his hands, rubbing it over her back and shoulders. She turned around and he repeated the process, gently circling her n*****s. Emily groaned and squeezed her thighs together. He ran his soapy hands over her hips and down her thighs. Her breath caught in her throat as she looked at him pleadingly.

“Em, I can’t. You know I am saving myself for my mate.” Luke whispered.

For the first time Emily felt afraid. What if she had it wrong and they weren’t mates?

“I’m sorry.” She stammered as she went to move out of the shower. He put his hand out and intertwined his fingers with hers. He leaned in and kissed her neck, letting his lips linger over her skin. He moved his way down to her n*****s, gently circling them with his tongue.

“I can’t resist you.” He breathed as he kissed his way down her stomach. He dropped to his knees, kissing along her thighs and hips.

“Luke.” Emily could barely get his name out. She ran her hands through his hair, grabbing it as he teased her with his lips and tongue. He gently lifted her foot and placed it on his knee, opening her thighs. She pulled his head forward as he kissed her pubic mound.

He leaned in slightly, gently lapping at her c******s. She breathed in sharply the sensation new to her. This was the closest she had ever been to s****l contact. She had been in love with Luke since she was 12. No other boy or man had ever held her interest.

He began to pleasure her, using his tongue and lips. She could barely stand, she felt faint. Was this what s*x would be like? Her legs shook and she moaned softly.

Luke continued, gently sliding his thumb inside her.

“Oh baby, you’re tight as hell.” He moaned as he withdrew his thumb. He wanted to feel her give her body over to him, he didn’t want her to lose her virginity this way.

She was writhing, gripping his hair tightly.

“Don’t stop.” She moaned as she pushed forward into his tongue. He could feel the pressure building in her body as he devoured her.

“Oh Em.” He murmured as he brought her to her first c****x. She threw her head back, gasping for breath as she let go feeling herself throb against his tongue.

He stood up and held her as her heart raced and her breathing caught in her throat.

She snuggled into him as she came back down from her o****m. He grinned at her and pushed her towards the door.

“Go get dressed.” He whispered as he returned to washing himself.

“Well, I now know what I want for my birthday.” She grinned as she sashayed out the door.
