Cape and Cowl

"Excuse me, is there a phone I could use." Barbara said to Mrs. Hackett who had come by to see if there was anything else she could get her special guests.

In response, the smiling gray haired woman produced a small cellular phone from her apron. The tiny technological marvel seemed a little out of place in the antique settings.

"Be my guest." she said as she handed Barbara the phone.

"Thank you." the redhead said as she punched in the number for her office.

The conversation was brief and from the onset, Barbara was in total control. A feeling she had missed a great deal lately. Tim Murray had begun to chide her for not leaving a number where she could be reached but she quickly cut him off.

"I'll be away for the weekend, that's all you need to know." the Congresswoman said. "And when I get back Monday morning, I want to find your office cleaned out and a letter of resignation sitting on my desk."

"You can't do that." he protested.

"I can and I did." she replied firmly. "There's no need for discussion. Goodbye."

Breaking the connection, she had a broad grin on her face as she handed the phone back to Mrs. Hackett.

"Thank you, Mrs. Hackett." she said.

"You're welcome," the sixty year old smiled in return. "And you can call me Amanda."

"Then thank you, Amanda." she repeated as their hostess walked away.

"That felt good." Barbara said to Kara as she turned her attention back to her.

"I know something that's going to feel even better." the Kryptonian said cheerfully. "Our room is ready."

The room that had been reserved for them was decorated in the same motif as the rest of the small inn. It was like stepping back a hundred years to a bygone age. No television, no telephone, no instantaneous communication with the rest of the world. Even the electric lights, the only concession to modern living, had been designed to resemble old gas lamps.

A large oversized bed, complete with four tall oversized bedposts, dominated the center of the room. Large open windows filled with the light of the full moon, which had just begun to rise into the early night sky.

"It's beautiful." Barbara gasped in astonishment. "It's the most beautiful room I've ever seen."

"I hoped you'd like it." Kara said as she lifted her hand to her companion's cheek and began to gently caress it. "A beautiful lady like yourself deserves to be surrounded by beautiful things."

With that Kara replaced the caress of her fingers with that of her lips.

At first, the kiss was like that she would give a sister or a dear friend. A light peck denoting tenderness and affection. Then she pressed harder - this time with passion. Barbara felt the press of Kara's tongue against her lips and opened to receive it.

Kara reached up with her hand and cupped Barbara's breast through her dress. It felt so nice to the older woman, bringing another surge of emotion through her.

Neither knew how long they stood, taking soft touches and intimate kisses. Each time Barbara felt Kara's tongue slip past her lips, her heart skipped a beat. Her lips were so soft and sweet, her perfume so highly intoxicating.

Barbara was no stranger to love, having lost her chastity the summer of her eighteenth year. In the years since, she'd had her measure of lovers. Yet standing here in the semi-darkness, surrounded by the splendor of an earlier age and coupled with the intimate presence of the most desirable woman she had ever known - she felt like a giddy virgin once more.

"Why don't we get you a little more comfortable?" Kara asked as she kissed Barbara one more time.

With that, Kara pulled the zipper of her dress all the way down, exposing the lacy strap of her bra. With no objection from Barbara, she pulled the flowery print open just enough to expose her soft creamy shoulders.

Kara began to kiss her way down Barbara's neck. Her eyes sparkled in appreciation as the younger woman got her first good look at Barbara's lace enclosed mounds.

"Is there somewhere I could change?" Barbara suddenly asked as she took a step back and away from the Girl of Steel's embrace. "I brought something special to wear and I wanted it to be a surprise." she added in way of explanation for her abrupt desire for privacy.

"Of course." Kara replied with a look of understanding. "The bath is right through there." she continued as she pointed to a carved door to the left. "Take your time. I'll change out here."

Pausing to kiss her new love one more time, Barbara grabbed the small carry bag she had brought with her off the floor and disappeared into the bedroom. The younger woman was tempted to use her amazing vision to sneak an advanced look at her surprise but then decided against it. Some things were worth waiting for.

The interior of the bath was as carefully and artistically decorated as the outer room. A large mirror dominated an antique dressing table. It was funny, Barbara thought as she slowly undressed, that Kara would be so enthralled by the settings of a more primitive age. She had always pictured Supergirl as always being in a futuristic setting, literally the girl of tomorrow.

"Well in that case, she should love this outfit." Barbara thought as she checked her reflection in the large mirror.

Gone was the simple outfit she had worn to dinner, replaced by an embossed shimmer and tulip laced long jade gown. Deep side slits gave ample view of her long, slender legs. Cut low in the front as well, the lace top barely concealed her rounded breasts, the nipples of which could easily been seen right through them.

"I've always like this color." Barbara thought as she undid her hair and spread it across her exposed shoulders. "So much like my eyes."

Satisfied with her appearance, Barbara took a deep breath stepped back into the bedroom. She wasn't prepared for what she found.

"Oh my!" she exclaimed as she stepped into a world of joyous luminosity.

The old fashion bedroom was filled with the light of what had to be close to a thousand candles. Mixed between them was an equal number of mixed flowers , turning the chamber into a garden. Even the night air was rich with the scent of blossoms.

In the center of it all stood Kara, her upraised arm against the bedpost. Like her new found love, her dinner attire had been replaced by something more suitable. A bright red baby doll lace nightie barely covered her well developed form. The outline of her sexuality was clearly visible through the see through material. The outfit was completed by the addition of a matching kimono robe. Her long blonde hair hung straight down her back.

"Impressed?" Kara grinned as she reached out her hand in invitation.

"That's an understatement." Barbara replied as she quickly crossed the room and placed her hand in Kara's.

Only for a moment did Barbara asked herself how Kara could have done all this. After all, she couldn't have been inside more than ten or fifteen minutes. Then, as quickly as the question manifested itself, the answer followed. Because she's Supergirl, silly. If she had wanted to, she could've flown to Gotham and back in that time.

"I hope some disaster doesn't suddenly require your attention somewhere on the other side of the world." Barbara said softly as she pressed against Kara and felt her powerful arms close around her.

"Don't worry about that, my dear sweet love." Kara whispered as she kissed Barbara lightly on her cheek. "I didn't even pack my working clothes. Let the Justice League or the Titans handle the world for a night."

"You don't know how glad I am to hear you say that." Barbara replied with her own pleasant kisses, remembering the many nights her plans had been interrupted by the call of duty.

"Enough talk." Kara said as she pressed her lips against Barbara's.

The warmth of Kara's pink lips spread throughout Barbara's own well developed body, finally coming to a rest in and igniting a fire in her heart.

"Mmm, that feels nice." Barbara purred as lace covered mound rubbed against lace covered mound, causing the nipples beneath to become hard and erect.

Kara leaned over and kissed her way now the fold of Barbara's neck to the softness of her shoulders. Deftly she undid the small clasps that held the nightgown in place and undid them. Holding the material so that it didn't immediately drop, the blonde carefully let it slide down the redhead's body, kissing the creamy white skin beneath it as it was exposed to the warm night air. Slowly she bent her knees and dropped to the ground, exposing her new love as she went. In no time at all, Barbara was as nude as could be.

"You are so beautiful." Kara said as she rose back to her full height.

'Thank you." Barbara beamed back.

Before she could say anything more, she found herself literally swept off of her feet as Kara effortlessly lifted her into the air and began to carry her precious cargo to the waiting bed.

Gently laying Barbara across the soft satin sheets, Kara took a step back and undid her own robe and let it fall to the ground. The red nightie quickly followed and she was as bare as the Congresswoman.

"If there's a word beyond beautiful, then you are certainly it." Barbara responded to the vision in front of her.

Kara's reply was only a broader smile as she joined Barbara on the bed. Gingerly she ran her fingers up and down the body next to her, producing a series of soft sighs.

"That feels nice." Barbara murmured.

"It gets better." Kara replied as she stroked the sides of Barbara's breasts.

The soft sighs began to grow in intensity until they became moans. The Maid of Might's fingers glided down the sides of the older woman until they came to her buttocks. There, she took a firm grip and pulled them up and apart, exposing the wet mound beneath it.

Kara bent down and kissed Barbara's left buttock, then her right. Each succeeding kiss brought her closer to the moist center. Finally, her kisses hit home and a slight shiver shook Barbara's body. Pulling harder, Kara gave herself greater access and kissed her again, this time pushing her searching tongue up into the exposed cavity.

"Mmmmm" she said as the tangy taste of her new love filled her mouth.

Unable to restrain herself any longer, she began to work her tongue in and out of the opening. Faster and faster it moved, sending tiny sparks of delight up into Barbara receptive form.

"Oh yes," she said as she enjoyed the sensation, excited even more that this was the first time she had received such pleasure such as the hand of another woman. "More, more."

Kara was more than willing to reply to the request. Even as her quick moving tongue wove a wet path up and down Barbara's slit, Kara's hands began to again roam across her body. Again sliding up and under, she cupped Barbara's firm breasts and played with her nipples, bringing even louder moans.

"Turn over." She said, guiding Barbara with a gentle touch.

Barbara was quick to respond, quickly flipping over onto her back and giving Kara full and unrestricted access.

Kara lowered herself to a position directly over Barbara. Then she shifted position just a little, raising herself so that her breasts were hanging directly over Barbara's mouth. There was no mistaking her intention and Barbara was eager to reply. She reached up with her tongue and caressed the nipple of Kara's left breast. As she eagerly took it into her mouth, she was surprised to find that it was so soft. She half expected to find Kara's skin to be hard, after all - bullets bounced off it.

"Mmmm." Kara moaned as she felt the warm embrace of Barbara's mouth. "You do that well, are you sure you haven't done this before?"

Barbara was greatly pleased with the blonde's reaction as she again ran her probing tongue around the wide aureole before once more engulfing it whole. A thousand times she had imagined what it would be like tasting another woman's breasts. None of those fantasies could compare with the real thing.

After a few more minutes, Kara shifted breasts and gave Barbara a chance to work her neophyte urges on her other mound. As she worked her way across this new morsel, Barbara was again overwhelmed by the combination of Kara's natural scent and the perfume she wore. It was strongest in the deep valley between her breasts, a place Barbara would've never thought of wearing it.

It was only then that Barbara noticed that although Kara was on top of her, she wasn't actually on her. Using her amazing ability to defy gravity, she was floating in the air, an inch between them.

Kara shifted position again, drifting downward so that she could kiss Barbara anew. As their lips met, she pressed her breasts hard against the woman beneath her, rubbing their nipples against each other.

"I want you." Barbara whispered in Kara's ear. "I want to taste you."

"And you shall." Kara replied in the same quiet tone.

After a final kiss, she floated upward and straddled the redhead spreading her tunnel of delight above her. Barbara sat up and stuck her eager face between the outstretched legs. She wasted no time in reaching up with her tongue, probing the inner reaches of Kara's womanhood. A sudden rush filled Barbara as the first taste of female juices hit her tongue. Out of curiosity, she had tasted herself several times, but this was different. This was another woman. Possibly the most powerful woman in the world.

Determined to excel in her new activity as she had done in most everything else in her life, Barbara slid her tongue around and around as she liked a lover to do to her. Her left hand played with Kara's clit as she tried to reach out with her tongue, hitting all the places that she knew were the most sensitive in her own body.

Kara helped with her efforts with both a gentle hand on the back of her head, guiding her, as well as a steady stream of soft moans. The closer Barbara got the right spots, the louder the moans became.

Time passed quickly and what had begun as soft gentle surges in Kara's body had progressed until they became rapid torrid. She was now thrashing her saturated pussy against Barbara's open and ever enthusiastic mouth, almost unable to believe that this novice was going to bring her to climax. Another powerful body quake gripped her body, causing her to stiffen momentarily. From past experiences, she knew the next time would be the one to send her over the abyss.

"Great Krypton!" Kara screamed as a tidal wave of passion ripped across her shaking body.

Copying a move an old lover had once used on her, Barbara grabbed Kara's ass and pressed her face as hard against her cunt as she could. An action that drove her tongue in as deep as was possible. For this, she was rewarded with what seemed to be endless eruptions of nectar. Waves that quickly overflowed from her mouth and spread out across her face. She half expected it to be different, but it was as familiar as her own. She felt a such delight knowing she had caused it.

"That was fantastic!" Barbara exclaimed as Kara pivoted in midair and kissed her.

"It certainly was." Kara agreed. "And now it's my turn."

Spreading Barbara's legs, Kara placed her head between them and with a burst of energy began to play a tune across her precious pearl with amazing rapidity. The effect on Barbara was instantaneous.

"Oh God, Oh God!'' she panted as the racing of her heart seemed to match the speed of Kara's tongue.

She could have never imaged any lover, man or woman, producing such a reaction. It was like having an evening of lovemaking compressed into a single instant. Her orgasm was both instantaneous and overwhelming.

"Oooooooo" she screamed so loud that she was sure that every guest in the small inn heard her.

Barbara would never be sure how long her brief passage through nirvana lasted, it was like an out of body experience. All she knew was that some time later she again became conscious of her surroundings and shifted her sweat covered body so she could face her blonde lover once more.

"I think I should be dead." she said.

"Why is that?" Kara asked curiously.

"Because after that, I think everything else in my life is going to be anticlimactic." Barbara laughed.

Kara laughed and kissed her lover lightly. "I guess I did get a little carried away." she said.

"A little..?" Barbara repeated.

"Tell you what," Kara said. "We have all night, why don't we try it again... this time at a slower speed?"

Barbara's answer was to lean over and nestle her head between the folds of Kara's breasts. The warmest of smiles filled her face.

Come the morning, they would leave their sanctuary and return to the world beyond - and the legends they had become. But for this one brief moment, they were simply two lonely woman with dreams and desires like any other. In truth, under cape and cowl - that's all they ever were.
