Honey

Chapter 1--Audra the Beekeeper

Audra Amarillo had always been fascinated by bees but she never thought of making honey a career.    She never had a fear of insects and honeybees were her favorite invertebrates.   Everything from their hierarchy, work ethic, and harmonious lifestyle appealed to her.    She had a sensational farm and was able to sell the literal fruits of her labor.   She also sheared sheep and knitted sweaters and created her own clothing.    She was an independent woman that lived from the labor of her multitalented hands.  She had many friends and animals that loved her but there was no one special in her life yet.    She had one man in her life who had turned out to be a disappointment but he was toxic for her.   Audra had since forgotten that person and erased him from her incredibly productive and prosperous life.   She couldn’t think of anything better than living in the splendor of nature with her pets by her side.    

Chapter 2--Zane, A Fellow Farmer

A new neighbor had moved into the area.  He was an independent farmer named Zane Zimmerman.    He had free range chickens, peacocks, alpacas, cows, pigs and a few horses.   The horses were used to help at risk kids learn how to become responsible, accountable individuals.   Zane had been helping kids so long as he could remember because he had been a youth who had been at risk himself.    Broken and bruised inwardly,  no one would’ve even have guessed that this friendly, genteel giant had suffered so much abuse when he was young.   

Intrigued by Audra’s honey, Zane inquired how much the jars were for and wondered if it was locally produced.   

‘Of course !   I harvest this myself.  The bees do all the work for me.  We have an understanding.   You know, people never believe me when I tell them but I have never been stung by one of my bees.’, Audra said.   She couldn’t take her eyes off the tanned young man.   He had a strong jawline and rugged features.   His beard was scruffy but well trimmed and his almond colored eyes twinkled in the sunlight.   His windswept platinum hair caught her gaze momentarily and she could’ve sworn she caught a smile from this otherwise solemn faced man.   

‘That’s quite impressive, young lady.   I’d love to see your hives sometime, but right now, I’m going to buy a couple of jars of honey from you.’, Zane said.    

‘I’m Audra, by the way.   Who are you ?’, Audra inquired.   After purchasing the honey, he offered her a strong, confident handshake.  

‘I’m Zane.   Pleasure meeting you.   It’ll be good to have a neighbor who shares a lot of the same hobbies and likes as I do.’, Zane said.  He offered her a genial wink and left her for the day.   Audra felt a stirring inside her heart and butterflies in her loins.    She had never felt this way about anyone before but she couldn’t wait to see him again.  

Chapter 3--Buzzing

The next day, Zane stopped by Audra’s hive and knocked on her fence.  

‘Hello ?    Is that Zane ?’, Audra asked hopefully.    She was wearing beekeeper’s attire and had been busy extracting honey from her hive and was up to 10 bottles for the day.   It was almost time for her to turn off the spigot and close the hive for the day.  

‘Yeah !   I wanted to see your hive.’, he said, eagerly, like a kid in a candy store.   She came in and introduced her bees and the hive and pulled out one more segment of honeycomb for Zane to see.   The bees were so laid back it was surreal.   

‘They really trust you.’, he said, nearly dumbfounded.   

‘We speak the same language.’, Audra boasted, somewhat.   Her violet gaze captured Zane’s and Zane’s cheeks darkened.    ‘Do you want to see the queen ?’, Audra queried.

‘I think I’m looking at her.’, Zane complemented and watched Audra’s cheeks turn beet red.  She quickly went about her business and brought up the slat that held the queen.  She was hustled and bustled around by the other workers, shrouding her from the light as she went about her royal duties.  

‘Beautiful isn’t she ?’, Audra asked, smiling as she placed the slat back into the hive.  

‘You’re even moreso.’, Zane replied, not taking any qualms about it.  Zane had never said such things to a woman before but she brought out the inner poet in him.    He felt a magnetic, electric charge between the two of them.    Coming closer he held her hand, even though she was in full protective garments at the time.     Stepping away from the hive she unzipped the white suit and hung it up for the day.   

‘I was wondering if you wanted to go and grab something to eat.  Or, I could whip something up for you.   Granted, it won’t be spectacular…’, Zane began.   Audra suggested a salad, and that was the one of many culinary treats Zane could conjure in a moment.  

‘Definitely.   This is one of my specialities.   Come on over !’, Zane said, leading the way with a bounce to his step and a whistle upon his lips.  

Chapter 3--Caught Up in the Moment

Zane brought her to one of his favorite places in the barn, the hayloft.   The horses were out frolicking for the day so they could be unattended for hours and neither of them had to worry.   He had recently cleaned out the stalls so everything actually smelled pleasant.  

‘You really went out of the way to make this place spic and span.’, Audra commented.

‘I try to.   I like to make a good impression.’, Zane said.   The two ate his garbanzo bean salad, munching contentedly.   

‘This is stupendous.   Do you enjoy cooking ?’, Audra questioned.

‘Yes, immensely, especially for other people.  It’s not often I have a chance to show off my skills.’, Zane boasted.    He found himself opening up more around Audra.   She was such an easy person to talk to and he had to admit his heart fluttered just being in her presence.   Part of him felt aroused speaking to her and his manhood pulsed under his boxer shorts.   

He sat closer to her and placed his hand atop hers, stroking it.   

‘Your hands are so much softer than I would’ve guessed.’, Audra replied, becoming shy for a moment.   This had been the first time her hand had been held by a man.   She grasped his hand gently and smiled cheerily.   

‘Is it wrong to say that I can’t stop looking at you ?’, Zane said, feeling his lips inextricably drawn to Audra’s.  

‘No.  Gaze away.  I feel the same.  I want to say something but I don’t want to frighten you away.   After all, this is our first actual date.’, Audra confessed.  

There was a momentary nervousness, but it soon dissipated.   

‘I love you.’, Audra said, in a near whisper.   

‘I’m not scared of that.   I felt that the moment I saw you, but I was wondering who would say it first.’, Zane said with a laugh.   Their faces were only inches apart and Audra leaned in to smooch Zane gently at first.    Zane began french kissing Audra and stroking her sides.   Audra felt her fears dissolve and she began unbuttoning Zane’s shirt, revealing his tank top underneath.

‘Are you sure you want to do this ?’, Zane asked, wondering if he would be too much for the slightly built young woman.  

‘I don’t think so.   I’m ready.  I want you.’, Audra said, her tone tender.   Her hands massaged his muscular pecs and he shivered happily at her touch.   He continued to kiss her, the nape of her neck and down her arm to her fingertips.    Delicately, he removed her blouse and her bra to reveal her perky round breasts.    They weren’t too large or small, but perfect to be fondled by him.   Gently he cupped them in his hands and lightly tweaked her nipples.

‘Does that feel good ?’, he asked.   Her expression was enough to tell him she was being driven wild by his silken hands.    He brought his face between her breasts and brought her left nipple to his mouth, sucking softly while his other hand unzipped her jean skirt.   He could feel the outside of her panties.    His hand delved into her, slowly at first.    He curled his finger, locating her G spot.   He had never fingered a woman before but having read plenty of books, the anatomy wasn’t really that much of a mystery.    All that he needed was micro-cues or audible approval from Audra.  

‘Yes, don’t stop.   That feels magnificent.’, Audra said, holding onto him around his waist.  Hearing her melodic sighs was making his penis ache hungrily for her.    He guided her hands boldly around her waist and helped her undo his belt.   He stood erect, his rod glistening with precum.   She gazed at it with amazement.   

‘It’s like a flagpole.’, she said, nearly gawking.    Hoisting her atop the hay bale, he pierced her snatch with his sword very deliberately, thrusting into her.   His lips never once left a piece of her flesh unexposed but they always lit on her lips, stealing her moans from her.  She never once wanted him to stop.  

‘Zane...You...are remarkable.’, she said, her hips beginning to compensate for his.   She raised her leg for him to penetrate her deeper and she moaned,

‘Oh...yes…’  

Zane’s movement increased until he climaxed and panted, regaining his breath.   He hadn’t been intimate with a woman so his mind was racing.   Audra felt the same way, but she was still surfing a wave of endorphins and bliss after copulating with him.  

Chapter 4--Roll in the Hay

Audra laced her hands around him, spooning him from behind.  

‘That was spectacular.’, she breathed, regaining her breath.

‘No doubt, honey.’, Zane thought.   He had never been so impulsive before, but to be honest he hadn’t wanted to lose his virginity to anyone else.    It felt so natural and he felt more alive than ever before.    Seeing her naked body lying next to his, their clothes lying on the barnyard floor made him all the more aroused.   He wanted to send her into ecstasy again but needed to rest before joining her in an intimate embrace.   He wanted to try 69ing but had only read about it.  

‘Do you want to try something ?’, he asked playfully.

‘What’s that, pumpkin ?’, she retorted, just as coquettishly.   

‘I want to 69.’, he prompted.   She had read about how it was to be done and gave him instructions.   She didn’t know how to orally please a man but it wasn’t nearly so hard as she believed it was going to be.    She simply nibbled up and down his sausage, kissing.   Her tongue swirled his head and she took his meat into her mouth.   Zane crooned.

‘You’re driving me nuts...My God…’, he said.   Words were difficult to come by and resorted to animalistic grunts and primal screams between the two of them.   It sounded like a symphony of harmony in the highest regard.    He tried to please her as well as she had pleased him, working his tongue like clockwork.   Back to front, side to side, clockwise, counterclockwise until he could taste her cum.   He kissed her clit and sucked until he heard her yell and gasp.  He continued until they both climaxed, Audra first and Zane not long after.    

‘Sensational.’, Audra exhaled, collapsing into Zane’s arms.   He felt it proper to clean up and to help her clean up.   He kissed her.   Their taste lingered upon each other’s lips for a moment.    From there, the two fell asleep until they were awoken the next morning by a young, feisty thoroughbred colt.   

Chapter 5--Zane’s Promise

That next day was spent seeing the horses were fed, watered and exercised properly.   Zane fell more and more in love with Audra the more he was around her.   Their passion was unhindered and the sex between them was explosive.    Zane had never been so free with himself as he was with Audra.    

‘You won’t date someone else will you ?   The last time I was in a relationship, the guy became interested in another girl.   I tried changing who I was because of him.   I realized I was being inauthentic.’, Audra revealed.    Zane took her hand and squeezed it, then ran his thumb and forefinger over it.   

“That guy was a moron for ever leaving you.   But honestly, I’m glad he did because it gave you a chance to open back up and let me in.’, Zane said, kissing her forehead.   Zane was tried-and true, loyal and frank.   He could be independent but he didn’t mind when Audra wanted to be affectionate with him.   He felt like a king whenever she was around.   His mood was heightened when she smiled at him.   Just her laugh made him feel like he was in charge of the Universe.    Yet, she was still so humble and hardworking it simply made him savor her and like her all the more.    She had come into his life as a fellow farmer, lover of animals and steward of the land, but she had become his lover almost overnight.    

One night while lying in Zane’s bed, Audra and he had just savored another bout of insane lovemaking.   Zane had his head lying atop Audra’s beautiful, perfect breasts and he affectionately kissed her navel, tousling her hair.   She idly stroked his beard and saw the Cosmos in his eyes as they entered their intimate embrace for a second time.    Zane had been flaccid but his dick had grown strong with the sway of her thighs.    He entered her again, clasping her butt in his hands and sighed sublimely.   

‘I love everything about you.   You are perfection.’, Zane said, nibbling on Audra’s ear.   She felt happy tears flooding her eyes and he kissed them away.   In those motions, they rocked their queen sized bed in elation.   

‘I love you more than words can say.’, Zane whispered, holding her close after he climaxed again.   They actually climaxed together, which was rare, but it didn’t matter which of them came first.   They simply enjoyed the sensation of their bodies coming together and their hearts uniting as one.   Zane was never going to leave her.   In fact, they had developed a contract where they united their farms and their business grew.    Their love life continued to remain red hot even though it required more work from the both of them.   Matters couldn’t have been better and only improved with time.  

Epilogue

BUsiness only grew more and more as time marched on.  The lovers became an even bigger family and even though they had more mouths to feed.    The children that they helped were doing wonderfully well in the world and they would always help new applicants when they filed in.    The community could thank them for the positive environment and safe haven they supplied to children who might not have a family otherwise.   The two continued billing and cooing although they had babies to take care of.   The flame between them was never extinguished.  In fact, it only enhanced and grew fonder in time and neither of them ever looked back from their unification.
