Insatiable

“Princess, you are going down to see the prince again? It’s dangerous to venture there yourself!” Venus said irritably with a frown.

The petite Moon Princess looked at her protector with a blush. “I am serious, you know.” She pulled a face and stuck out her tongue. “You have never been in love, V, you don’t know how I feel!”

She flounced off, leaving a flustered Venus behind.

The blonde guard puffed. “I understand that too …”

Venus looked to the blue planet hanging in the sky. A memory from not long ago surfaced in her mind.

She was anxious. She was worried. If the queen ever found out, she was in trouble. She might even lose her position as the leader of the Princess’ court. That humiliation she couldn’t afford, couldn’t allow to be bestowed upon her planet and her people.

She half ran, half cloaked herself in the shadows. An indescribable power hung suspended in the air of the Golden Kingdom. Every time she had to come here to fetch her princess, Venus had the fleeting suspicion the palace had a life of its own. Its invisible hands clawed at her skin and begged for her attention. Was this one of the reasons Earth was outlawed by the other member planets of the Silver Millennium?

A tail of golden hair bounced briefly in the air before disappearing into the Earth prince’s private gardens. She increased her steps and caught the pigtail before it slipped out of her grasp. She pulled at the hair until Serenity was mere inches away.

“Princess! You came here again? We are going home!”

While Venus said this, her brain was already making excuses for her wayward princess.

“It must be rough handling a princess with an insatiable curiosity,” a silky voice commented, followed by a deep chuckle.

“Kunzite!” Endymion said irritably, his handsome features marred by a frown.

Venus looked from the prince to the tall man standing on his side. Everything about him was gorgeous. He was like the gods she had read in legends. From his light grey eyes, to his sensual mouth, to the aura of power his presence generated. A halo seemed to surround him when the sun kissed his shoulder length silvery hair. His uniform fit snugly on his body and she could almost see the rippling muscles hidden beneath the fabric.

He acknowledged her with a nod, his eyes scrutinizing her but held no malice. Venus felt her heart fluttering wildly. She blushed when he caught her staring at him.

“Venus?” Mercury’s voice snapped the blonde out of her thoughts. She waved the remnants of her daydream away. Giving the blue planet another glance, she sighed.

“I am worried about her.”

The blue-haired beauty dropped her head to one side and gave a questioning look. “Worried?”

“She wouldn’t get hurt by falling in love, would she? One day she would be queen …”

Mercury patted her friend on the shoulder. “You are thinking too much, V.”

The blonde shook her head. “She is my responsibility. I am going after her. Don’t tell Mars or Jupiter. They’ll have me killed for letting the princess disappear again.”

Her friend laughed. “Go with my blessing. Your secret is safe with me. Good luck.”

Venus touched her brooch and disappeared in a flurry of orange and golden ribbon lights. When she opened her eyes, she found herself in Endymion’s acclaimed rose gardens. She looked around for cover, having sensed that her princess was nearby. She found a large tree not ten feet away and made a beeline for it. With one graceful leap, she settled on one of the branches effortlessly, the canopy above thick enough to hide her from view.

She lied against the bark and waited. Minutes ticked by. She grew bored. She would much rather be scouting around the Moon Palace and bask in the peace of the kingdom. The Ginzuishou generated atmosphere there did not have the anxiety that hung thick on Earth’s soil.

The lilting voice of her princess followed by a deep throaty laughter brought Venus out of her thoughts. She shifted from her position to have a better look. Squinting her eyes, Venus saw Serenity nestle inside the Earth Prince’s arms. He whispered something to her and the Princess laughed, blushing. Venus felt her stomach tightened in knots. The princess was always happy. She wasn’t sure if she liked how easily the Terran Prince charmed her charge’s heart.

A hand covered her mouth from behind and she found herself pulled against a deliciously hard body. Venus struggled to free herself, but her captor held her firmly in place.

“Do you want your princess to know you are spying on her?” his breath caressed her neck and she shivered.

She squeezed her eyes shut, trying to relax her taut muscles. Kunzite loosened his hold on her. He removed his gloved hand from her mouth to upturn her face for a deep kiss. Venus tensed, hating how easily he could sneak up on her like that. She gripped the branch they were sitting on and braced herself. She shouldn’t be doing this. She had the princess to guard. But Kunzite was more determined to distract her. As he probed her mouth open with his tongue, Venus found herself returning the gesture. She leaned back against him for support, her hand slipping up to pull his head closer.

Kunzite almost groaned as she kissed him back with the same passion. He tightened his grip around her waist. As she nipped his lower lip, warmth shot from his head to the nerve endings to his groin. He knew the senshi were forbidden as was interacting with the other planets, but he just couldn’t get enough of the girl in his arms when she wanted him equally as much.

The hand holding her chin traced a path down her neck and the smooth skin of her right arm. He caressed the satin skin for a little while before his fingers moved to explore her torso. They lingered briefly on her breasts and trailed further down. He had the distinct joy of her body stiffening as he slipped his roaming fingers under her indecently short skirt and touched the fabric shielding her core.

Venus gasped and pulled away from his lips. “Don’t.” she begged weakly against him. “The princess…”

“… is safe with Endymion.” And he claimed her mouth again.

Venus wanted to free herself from his grasp but her body said otherwise. She craved his touch to a maddening degree. She needed those long, skilful fingers to touch her everywhere, to reach into the chasm of her soul. She arched her body to his against her will, and couldn’t stifle a moan when he entered his fingers inside her.

She broke apart for air and looked into his grey eyes. “You do realize … we are on a tree.”

Kunzite gave her a knowing smile while he pulled his fingers out. Her legs suddenly felt like jelly. She was grateful of the tree supporting her weight and the arm he had draped across her waist.

“We shall continue this in my room, then,” he whispered huskily against her ear and teleported both of them away.

Reappearing in his private chamber, Kunzite spun Venus around so she stood facing him. He removed the tiara on her forehead and her orange and white uniform dissipated into a long flowing yellow gown that clung to her body like a second skin. He loved how the luxuriant garment accentuated her womanly curves at all the right places. He could feel his desire growing stronger as his eyes cast downwards and saw the modest amount of cleavage her low-cut gown produced.

Without warning, he pulled her into his arms and explored her heart-shaped face with his mouth and tongue. Venus uttered a moan when his tongue found a sensitive spot and Kunzite lost all his resolve. Effortlessly, he pushed her gown over her head, before he lifted her up and fastened his mouth on her skin. Her satin smooth legs wrapped about his waist instantly, while her arms found their way around his shoulders. He licked a wet trail up from her flat stomach to her breasts. Founding her nipples, he bit and sucked on each in return until they were rounded pebbles.

Lost in the sensation his skilful licks were doing to her body, Venus only realised he had already pushed them against the wall when her back hit the cool, solid surface. She gasped out loud as he inserted his fingers between her legs and spread her. Her back arched while the digits dive in and out of her and probed her open. Not able to take the foreplay any longer, she begged to be taken at once.

Kunzite was only too glad to give Venus what she wanted. Inserting his fingers for one final stroke, he eased them out and supported her by her small waist. He released his organ from his pants and drove into her. She cried out as internal muscles convulsed around him. It was a tight fit and she savoured the sensation his strokes was giving her. She felt complete, strangely alive. She knew their intimacy was against the rules laid down by the Gods but right now, she simply didn’t care.

His hands slid down and he gripped her shapely hips. His thrusting increased as he felt the both of them approaching the summit of their coupling. Her body was already slick with heat and he could also felt sweat coating his already heated skin. He drove into her more rapidly, more violently. Finally, she reached her climax moments later, while her internal muscles tightened and released. He had his own release soon after and he emptied his seeds inside her.

Air suddenly seemed to become limited in the room. Their breaths came out in rapid gasps, their bodies slowly returned to their normal temperatures. Kunzite nuzzled her neck and felt her shiver. He smiled, kissing and lapping at the tender skin until he was satisfied with the red mark, his mark, left there.

Her breathing gradually became more even and she relaxed against him. He pushed them away from the wall and walked towards his bed. She moaned in her sleep as he began to remove himself from within her. Kunzite chuckled. What an insatiable Venusian.

He disrobed himself after he deposited her gently onto his bed. Spreading her legs apart slightly, he positioned himself and slid home. She snuggled into his arms and murmured satisfactorily in her sleep. As fatigue began to set in, he shifted them into a comfortable position and allowed sleep to consume him.
