Well, since I'm moving across the USA in about a week, I figured I should make my best effort to post up another chapter to keep my readers busy. Thank you for those who have sent their best wishes for my personal life issues - things got a little worse after my last posting, but I've tried not to let that stop me from writing. I kind of feel like this chapter is sub-par, but it could just be because of the huge wet blanket that the rest of my life has proven to be. I'll let the rest of y'all decide whether it's up to standard or not. Thanks for your continued patience, and enjoy!
Chapter 14 β Descent into Darkness
Dusk had fallen by the time Jacen and Star reached the outskirts of the Jedi Temple. They lingered in the shadows, watching as students and Jedi came and went from the main steps leading to the temple entrance.
"We'll never get to my apartment unseen through the main entrance," Star said, poking her head out to get a better look. "There's too much traffic going in and out."
"Is there some sort of back door?" Jacen asked.
"Yes," she replied, thinking. "But we'll have to use some ladders and such. It's a service entrance. You'll need both hands."
"I don't know if she'll be able to handle it," Jacen said, nodding to Liana, who was still whimpering in his arms.
"She'll have to," Star said. She leaned forward, speaking softly in Liana's ear. "Liana? Sweetie, we need you to stand up. Can you do that?"
"I want it," Liana moaned, sweat beading on her forehead as she struggled with herself. "I want to come."
"I know you do, baby," Star whispered, caressing the girl's cheek gently. "I know it's hard, but I need you to focus. Focus on my voice. Can you stand up?"
Liana hesitantly swung herself down as Jacen released her from his arms. Her bare feet touched the ground lightly and she stumbled, falling forward into Star's waiting support. Liana slowly pushed off against Star's body, standing unsteadily on shaky legs.
"That's it," Star encouraged her, offering an arm for support as Jacen did the same. "We need to walk this way, okay? We'll take it slow β lean on us whenever you need support."
The trio slowly made their way around the perimeter of the Temple, carefully avoiding contact with any Jedi.
"Jacen...," Liana moaned softly as they walked along. "I..."
"Shhhh," Jacen shushed her. "Save your strength. You're not well."
"No," she insisted, tightening her grip on his arm. "I want... you."
"I know, Liana, I know," he said. "But we can't. It won't help the situation."
"We're almost there Liana," Star interrupted, drawing her attention to a nearby door. "We just have to go through there. Can you do that for me?"
Liana nodded slowly, her cloudy blue eyes fixing on the door. She groaned as the group advanced forward, her breaths quick and shallow. Jacen felt bad for the girl β it almost sounded as if she were in pain. For all he knew, she might have been. When they reached the door, Star slid it open by hand to reveal a dark shaft, lit sporadically with dim lights. A ladder ran straight up one wall.
"I seem to be using these a lot today," Star joked, gesturing to the ladder. "This is our way up β it's a service shaft for repairing the elevators in this part of the building."
"I can't," Liana said weakly. "I just..."
"Liana, you can do this," Star said, looking into the girl's eyes. "Jacen and I will both be right here. It's not far, we just need to get up a floor or two and then we can take the elevator. Can you try?"
"I... I'll try," the girl replied, her voice trembling with uncertainty.
Star led the way up the ladder first, followed by Liana. Jacen brought up the rear, keeping a watchful eye on Liana as she struggled along. They paused several times for the weakened girl to catch her breath. He could not help noticing that the cloak draped over Liana's shoulders did nothing to obscure his view of her from below. Her soft, rounded buttocks and her swollen pussy lips were on display for him as she climbed. A small trickle of wetness dripped down her thigh slowly, evidence of her continued arousal despite her predicament. Jacen felt himself stirring in his pants but shook off the feeling, trying to remain focused on the task at hand. After what seemed like an eternity, Star opened a door above her and climbed off the ladder.
"You're almost there Liana," she called down. "Just a little bit more!"
Star stuck out her hand, just out of Liana's reach. The blonde girl strained and stretched to grab hold, but as she did her foot slipped and she began sliding downward.
"Jacen! Grab her!" Star shouted.
Jacen quickly locked one arm around the ladder and reached up with the other, catching Liana high up on her left thigh. She continued to slip down until his fingers were digging into her fleshy ass cheek, with her legs dangling on either side of his arm. Liana moaned and pressed her weight down on his hand, feeling him sink into her flesh.
"Oh Liana, not now," Jacen said softly.
She ignored him, spreading her legs as his fingers slipped between them and pressed against her soaking wet opening. Her juices coated the entire area, causing a finger or two to slide right into her waiting pussy. She moaned again, feeling hot flesh at last enter her.
