Dusty Footprints in Time
By Athena
Part 12: The Wedding Night
Myka held on tight to Helena's hand as the two hurried along the graveled path down towards the Cottage. Helena turned and smiled at her. Myka grinned back. Helena looked amazingly beautiful in the soft light from the almost full moon.
"Come darling, we must make haste or I fear that they will notice our departure."
Myka chuckled and shook her head. Interacting with the wedding guests as HG Wells had definitely had an impact on Helena.
"My Victorian wife," Myka whispered and pulled at Helena's hand for her to stop. "Come here and give me a kiss."
Helena laughed and wrapped her arms around Myka, kissing her soundly. After a moment she pulled away and cupped Myka's face. They were both breathing a little faster and Myka's cheeks were definitely flushed.
"I want nothing more than to kiss you, dearest, but I would prefer to do it naked on our wedding bed."
Myka swallowed and nodded. She held out her hand to Helena who instantly took it. Laughing, they set off again, the Cottage now in sight.
"I wore pants long before you did, so it should be my duty," Helena argued.
"Helena, I'm stronger than you, and taller."
"By one tiny inch!" Helena objected.
Myka chuckled. "Still taller."
Helena made an annoyed sound. "How about I carry you over this threshold, and you carry me over the one to our bedroom? Will that be a good enough compromise, Mrs. Bering Wells?" Helena teased, her eyes twinkling.
Myka laughed and nodded. "Yeah, I think it is."
"Then by all means, let's not dawdle here a moment longer."
With those words she swept Myka up in her arms and crossed the threshold. Myka only let out a tiny yelp before laughing happily as her wife carried her inside their home.
Helena gently set Myka down and smoothed out her dress. Turning her back to Myka she stepped into the living room and returned a moment later with a brass device in her hand.
"What on earth is that?"
"Something I came up with. It will keep any pranksters at bay."
"An alarm system!" Myka exclaimed with a grin.
"Exactly, only it will not sound, only give any trespassers a tiny Tesla shock."
Myka just stared at her. "You made a Tesla alarm system?"
Helena nodded enthusiastically. "I most certainly will not be interrupted on our wedding night."
Myka laughed and pulled Helena close. "And here I didn't think that I could love you more."
Myka took Helena's hands and led her upstairs. She stopped by their bedroom and slowly pushed the door open all while looking Helena in the eyes. Helena stepped closer and wrapped her arms around Myka's neck. She giggled when Myka picked her up and just held her in her arms for a moment.
"Helena Grace Wells, are you ready to start a new life as Mrs. Bering-Wells?"
"I am, oh believe me darling, I am."
Myka entered the room and carried Helena to the bed where she let her down. They stood holding each other for a long quiet moment. Myka turned her head when she realized that she smelled roses. She grinned as she noticed flowers on the dresser and rose petals scattered on the floor and on their bed. Candles were put in strategic places. They were not lit of course, but waiting eagerly to play their part on this important night.
Helena chuckled as she noticed an old-fashioned Victorian lamp sitting on the small table by the window, the only light source in the dimly lit room.
"I remember that," she said. "It used to sit in my parlor back in London."
"I guess HP worked some more magic."
Helena turned as she inspected the room for any other changes. Myka stepped over and lit the candles on the dresser. Helena chuckled when she noticed something on their bed.
On their bed sat a dark wooden chest. It reminded Myka of the tea chests that they have in some restaurants; it was just a bit larger. A brass key sat in the elaborate lock, as if teasing them to open it. Helena carefully opened the envelope resting on top of the chest before turning the key. She chuckled as she read the card inside. Putting it down on the nightstand she carefully opened the lid.
"Helen Magnus, you wicked, wicked woman, how I adore you," Helena said and laughed in delight at the gift.
"Oh. My. God!" Myka gasped and stared at the contents.
Helena laughed and grinned wickedly at Myka before picking up one of the items. Her fingers stroked the sex toy in a way that made Myka swallow nervously. Helena chewed on her lip as she studied Myka's reaction. She caressed the soft velvet lining for a moment before she removed the top section of the chest and inspected the second layer. The second layer was divided into seven compartments of varying size. Sitting in the largest red velvet lined compartment was a soft leather harness that clearly was made for the toy in Helena's hand.
"Perhaps we should indulge in this gift tonight darling?" Helena purred.
Myka swallowed and nodded. Her mouth was suddenly dry.
Helena picked up one item after the other and giggled a little. A small black velvet bag with a golden drawstring sat in the top right compartment. She carefully opened it and poured out its contents into her palm.
"Dear God," she whispered as she stared at the silver items with inlays of gold. Light reflected in the red garnets as she turned and showed the items to Myka.
"Nipple clamps?" Myka mumbled and took a deep breath as she felt her nipples tingle at the thought.
"Mine, more exactly," Helena mumbled.
"Yours?" Myka exclaimed. She pointed at the two beautiful items in Helena's hand. "These used to be yours?"
Helena nodded. "I must have left them with Helen. She gave them to me a very long time ago."
Myka chewed on her lip as she was yet again reminded of Helena's past.
"Dearest," Helena said seriously and put the clamps back in the bag. "I am so sorry. It was terrible taste of me to remind you of my past relationships. Can you forgive me?"
Myka smiled and nodded. She caressed Helena's cheek and kissed her.
"You know you're already forgiven," she whispered.
Helena nodded. She picked up the chest and put it on the nightstand. She winked at Myka when she noticed the raised eyebrow.
"You never know when this might come in handy."
Myka laughed and nodded. She held out her hands to Helena who took them eagerly.
They undressed each other slowly, cherishing each caress. Taking their time as only lovers who know each other well are capable of, placing a kiss here and a nibble there, stroking softly over sensitive spots, they drew sighs and shivers from each other.
When Helena finally lowered Myka to the bed they were both trembling with need. Helena stretched out next to Myka and stroked her stomach as she watched her.
"You are so beautiful my darling," she whispered. "I am a very lucky woman."
Myka smiled and took her hand, intertwining their fingers. "As am I."
"Darling, while we are still in somewhat control of our actions and thoughts we need to talk about Dr. Calder," Helena said softly.
Myka swallowed and nodded. "I saw you talking to her."
"I told her we would call her. I gave her our spare key, and the deactivation device for the Tesla protection guard of course. I do not think it a wise to Tesla the good doctor prior to her performing such an important procedure."
"I see."
"If you're not ready, we will not do this," Helena said gently and leaned down for a sweet kiss.
"No, I'm ready," Myka said quickly. "I'm just feeling a little weird about it."
"You're absolutely safe with her. I promise you."
"I know, but it's one thing to be naked with you and a totally different thing to have her here," Myka said in a small voice.
"She has seen worse I'm sure," Helena said and winked. "I mean, she's dating Artie."
"Eww! Helena!" Myka exclaimed and wrinkled her nose. "Are you trying to completely turn me off? Only thing that could be worse would be talking about my parents having sex. Which they don't by the way!" she said and made a face at Helena.
Helena laughed and sat up straighter. She ran her hand down Myka's thigh and then tickled the inside of it. Myka instantly opened her legs in response to the loving caress.
"I want to use the dildo darling. What do you think?"
Myka nodded. "I think I would really like that."
"How wonderful!"
Helena made love achingly slowly to Myka, touching her and tasting her so tenderly it almost made Myka weep. When Helena slowly entered her, Myka cried out and her body shook. She fought to keep the orgasm at bay for just a little longer, wanting to savor the moment. Helena eased the dildo in and out of her while stroking her clit. Myka tossed her head from side to side, panting hard. She looked up at Helena when Helena took her hand and placed her fingers on her sex. Helena smiled at her as she again pushed inside of her, all while watching Myka stroking herself.
Helena raised Myka's legs and grabbed her feet. Myka gasped at the new intense feeling when Helena eased the dildo back inside her. Myka kept stroking her clit as she whimpered and trembled in prerelease.
"Let go, love," Helena whispered.
Myka's eyes rolled back in her head as the orgasm hit. She cried out and tossed her head back. Her body gripped the dildo hard, keeping it inside her. Helena just held still, trapping it deep inside Myka. She gently lowered Myka's feet to the bed and stretched out on top of her. She kissed her softly and waited for Myka to open her eyes.
"Wow," Myka said and took a deep breath. She laughed and wrapped her arms around Helena. "That was amazing."
Helena grinned, very pleased with herself. "I'm glad that you enjoyed it."
"Oh I definitely did."
Helena sat next to Myka on the bed, holding her hand in a tight grip. They were both naked, having made love only minutes prior. Myka looked Helena in the eyes and whimpered softly. Helena caressed her hair.
"You can touch her if you want," Dr. Calder said and smiled at Helena.
"Are you uncomfortable, darling?" Helena asked, worried.
"It's not the most comfortable I've ever been," Myka mumbled. She jumped when Helena caressed her breast. "Helena!"
Helena chuckled and glanced at the doctor. "I'm sure that Dr. Calder is fine with me touching you like this."
"As long as you're comforted by it Myka, don't you worry about me," Vanessa said and smiled at Myka. She gently caressed Myka's thigh, trying to comfort her. She looked curious at Helena when she heard her chuckle.
"I would suggest not touching Myka's leg like that, doctor. You might get a different response than what you expected."
"Oh dear," Vanessa said embarrassed. "I'm terribly sorry Myka. It was not my intention to touch you inappropriately. I wanted to comfort you, that's all."
Myka nodded silently, fearful of how her voice would sound if she spoke.
"If you raise your knees and open your legs just a little bit more, Myka, it will be easier for me to do this," Vanessa said in a gentle voice.
"God," Myka whispered embarrassed and closed her eyes.
"I will go very slowly and you tell me the moment you feel pain or discomfort, agreed?" the doctor said and looked at Myka.
Myka nodded. She gripped Helena's hand harder as she felt the doctor's hands on her, easing the instrument inside her body. She closed her eyes and whimpered.
"Am I hurting you?" Vanessa asked and stopped for a moment.
"No," Myka whispered. "It just feels a little uncomfortable, that's all."
Vanessa smiled at her. "Try to ignore that I'm even here. Close your eyes and imagine that it's Helena doing this. Think about what she's doing to you Myka."
Myka nodded and it made her feel a bit better. She whimpered a little and flinched when Dr. Calder touched her.
"It's okay Myka," Vanessa said.
"I'm sorry," Myka sighed. "It feels very awkward."
"As I said, try to imagine that I'm not here," the doctor said.
"Not as easy as you'd think," Myka muttered.
Myka sighed in relief when Dr. Calder finally removed the instrument from her body. She raised her hips as another soft pillow was placed under her buttocks. She heard the doctor and Helena speak quietly and then there was just silence as the door closed behind the doctor.
"She's gone darling," Helena said and kissed Myka's cheek.
Myka opened her eyes and smiled faintly. She pulled Helena to her and just held her for a long moment. Helena stroked her back, trying to comfort her. When Myka turned more, Helena gently pushed her down.
"You have to stay on your back for a little longer, love."
Myka blushed and nodded. "I almost forgot. I'm just so relieved that it's over."
Helena smiled and leaned closer. "It's not quite over yet darling. Now the fun part begins."
Myka giggled at the mischievous look on Helena's face. "Oh, is that so?"
"I promised the good doctor that I would give you an orgasm after the procedure, and I intend to keep my word."
"What if I don't feel up to it?" Myka said and tried to look serious.
Helena's eyebrows shot up. "Not up to it? You turning me down?" she huffed. "Since that has not happened yet, I find the mere thought of it ridiculous, and on our wedding night at that."
Myka giggled and pulled at Helena's hand. "Come here lover and give me some Victorian sweetness."
Helena laughed and kissed her. "At your service, my lady."
Helena teased Myka's nipples knowing that it would be the fastest way of getting her aroused. As expected Myka's breathing quickened within minutes. Helena took a rosy nipple in her mouth and sucked gently, stroking her tongue over it.
"How do I look down there?" Myka mumbled embarrassed. "Am I clean or did she lube me up a lot? I can't really tell."
Helena caressed Myka's cheek and smiled. "She cleaned you up a little when she was done. I think you're fine. Since I had just made love to you she did not actually have to use a lot of artificial lubrication. The evidence of your appreciation of my touch was more than enough."
"Helena!" Myka exclaimed and blushed.
Helena laughed and kissed her. "You know that I love how wet you get. Dr. Calder seemed to approve too."
"This is so humiliating," Myka whispered.
"Do you want my mouth on you? Is that why you asked?" Helena asked her. She gently caressed Myka's cheek smiling at her.
"Yeah. But only if I'm okay down there."
"I'm sure it's fine sweetheart."
Myka nodded and her eyes fluttered shut as Helena's mouth worked magic on her. Helena did not disappoint as she brought Myka to climax not once, but twice before they curled up and fell asleep in each other's arms.
