Secrets and Sins Part 2: Finding Mary

Chapter 54

~Ava~

One of the really fucked up downsides of accelerated healing meant Ava regained consciousness before she hit the ground. Unfortunately, with only one wing left, as well as her still mending injuries, there was nothing she could do to slow her descent.

Oh God, this is going to hurt…

The air left her lungs when she made bone shattering impact with the unyielding marble, thankfully the immense pain was quickly replaced by darkness as she blacked out once again.

Ava opened her eyes when achingly familiar calloused hands framed her face. Bea filled her field of vision, beautiful, badass Bea. Relief flooded her senses, she was safe, warm, and wrapped in the arms of the woman she loved, who was naked…actually they were both naked...and apparently in a hot tub.

Woah, Déjà vu…

A wave of apprehension disrupted her contentment. The Halo bearer had a niggling sensation of something being wrong, like she had forgotten something…something important.

“...and we are going to make the most of it!” Bea declared, dragging the younger woman into a heated kiss that wiped the uneasy thoughts from her mind.

Ava responded desperately, sinking her fingertips into the sister warrior's damp hair, eager to eradicate the anxiety that seemed to be her constant companion these days. Lost in the always intoxicating feeling of Bea’s lips moving against her own, Ava didn’t notice her girlfriend shifting until a rough hand cupped her right breast, squeezing firmly. Her gasp grew into a moan as Bea capitalized on her open mouth, brushing their tongues together. 

Ava hummed happily, sucking Bea's bottom lip into her mouth and nipping lightly.

"Ava..." She rasped, eyes opening to lock onto the younger woman's, she looked hungry...

The sister warrior moved the hand on her chest downwards, caressing her abdominal muscles briefly before finding her way between Ava’s legs. Wasting no time, Bea immediately focused on the Halo bearer's clit circling it teasingly with her index finger. Ava groaned into her mouth, lips growing sloppy at the arousal pooling in her gut, her hips stuttering at her girlfriend's ministrations.

“Mmmm…more.” She huffed, pulling away from the kiss to press her open mouth into the taller woman’s throat, latching onto her pulse point as she seized Bea’s wrist.

Bea nodded, allowing Ava to guide her fingers lower, swearing softly when she ended up knuckle-deep inside the Halo bearer. Ava rocked into Bea’s hand, sucking in a sharp breath as the angle allowed the sister warrior to hit all the right places. But with her elbow jammed against the side of the spa, Bea was finding it difficult to move her forearm enough to smoothly plunge her fingers into the Halo Bearer...not in the way Ava wanted her too, anyway. 

With a soft growl, the younger woman adjusted her position. Bracing her hands on the edge of the hot tub either side of Bea's head, Ava rose onto her knees and lifted a leg, so she was straddling her girlfriend’s thigh, giving her more control over the depth and speed of the thrusts. Also, much to her delight, the new placement of the younger woman's knee pressed it firmly into Bea's center, giving the sister warrior something to grind against.

Testing the new arrangement, she dropped down onto Bea’s hand, moaning as the taller woman suddenly curled her fingers. Ava set a steady pace, riding the long, talented fingers beneath her and brought their lips crashing back together in a searing kiss.

“Ava!”

"Fuck, Bea. I'm so close." She whimpered, breaking their embrace to bury her face into the sister warrior’s neck.
