Pumping it up, for a sweet, sweet victory
This series is a collaboration with KatieTay. The first three chapters appear in her library. This one fits thematically more into my library. She deserves all the credit for the quality of the writing. I accept all the blame for the topics.

I moaned into my pillow.
Judith was straddling my lower back while clamping my sides with her thighs. Meanwhile, her astonishingly strong fingers dug right into the flesh of my back. It felt as good as any deep-bone massage I'd ever received. I was justly proud of the sheath of back muscle I'd developed with pullups, pulldowns and rows of all kinds - ancillary exercises, to my mind, to make my biceps work easier - but Judith's fingers were pushing through as if my back was a giant marshmallow! I knew she was strong, of course, and I liked to think I had a hand in that, somewhat... but lately her progress, both in terms of muscle mass and muscular strength, had been nothing short of astounding.
I groaned again, feeling a wonderful admixture of bliss and agony.
"Oh - sorry, Jay, was that too hard?"
"No, no... it's fine... it's amazing... you're loosening up knots I didn't even know were there..."
"You've been working hard, you know. I saw those barbell rows you were doing." Her hands went to my sides, and squeezed. "Mmmm..." she moaned from deep within her throat, sounding well-pleased by what she felt.
And well she might, I thought. I had good lats, and I knew it. Next to my arms, they were the body part I was proudest of. Not many younger men, even, could boast lats like mine!
Her hands kept doing their magic, kneading my back muscles as if they were dough. "Like a mountain range," she murmured appreciatively. "Watching your back move is like watching a shifting pile of bricks."
I chuckled a little. "Judith, dear, that's laying it on a bit thick, isn't it."
"What's thick, Jay, is your scrumptious back. Mmm, mmm, mmm! Be a dear, sit up, flex your back for me. I want to see it," she said, her voice deepening into a lustful growl.
Grinning, I pushed myself upright and rocked onto my haunches. Judith's stiff nipples brushed against my back as we moved, and I shivered a little.
Four months into our mass-building routine so far, and we both could not have been happier with the results. It was a constant source of personal gratification to me that my initial assessment of Judith's physique potential had been completely right. Back in the 90s - the heyday of women's bodybuilding, according to some - she would have been a champion to rival the likes of Laura Creavalle, Tonya Knight and even perhaps Colette Nelson at her peak.
Unlike those women, though, she was a "nattie" - totally natural. The world had seen enough cautionary tales of anabolic steroid abuse, to my mind. I had opined strongly to Judith that hormonal supplementation should not be on the cards, without any valid medical reason, and fortunately she was in agreement with me. Only something like gender dysmorphia or an innate hormonal imbalance could ever justify playing around with one's hormone levels, I always felt.
So, Judith wasn't as incredibly massive or striated as a contest-shape FBB from the golden years, true... but every time I tried to close my hand over her baseball-sized biceps and failed, it hardly seemed to matter. And her shoulders... such delicious beef-boulders they were! Watching her flex from the back never failed to get me hard and throbbing within seconds.
Hell, watching her flex from any angle never failed to do that!
"All right, big boy, spread those wings," she said in a low husky growl that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
Grinning, I obliged and reared up, raising my arms and clenching my fists, tightening my lats.
"Ohh mmmfff..." Judith grunted, as she sank her teeth into the meat of my trapezius.
I yelped a little in surprise, but this time I was mentally prepared for it. The first time Judith had bit into my back I'd jerked up and launched myself maybe a full foot off the mattress. After she'd laughed at me for two full minutes, she'd bared her carnivorous "fangs" at me again.
"You always said you wanted me on a higher protein diet," she'd quipped. "I figure, might as well go for the highest-quality meat I can get!"
I liked doing it right back to her - her body was
scrumptious
- but with her I had to be careful with where I left any potentially embarrassing love bites. With me, since most of the time I was all covered up in my usual work outfit, she had no such compunctions.
Now she made as if to devour my back muscles, beginning from the top. While she gnawed away at the base of my neck, where I had an impressive mound going, her fingers clutched at my bulging lats and dug in. She grunted some more as her teeth worked away at my flexed flesh. I was as hard as a drill bit.
"Squeeze these slabs some more for me!" she commanded, rubbing her thumbs against the clefts of my rhomboids.
I obliged; first, I extended my arms out in front of me, and hunched over, as if I were diving into a pool. Then, drawing in a lungful of air, I arched my back and thrust my chest out again, and pulled my arms back and out as if she were yanking on them. Maximum movement for my back muscles - full stretch, followed by full contraction. This would make them look even more pumped than before.
Crunch!
Judith hissed with delight, and plastered her face against my middle back, moaning as she rubbed her cheeks against it and nipped at the chunks of muscle with her teeth.
I bared my teeth. This felt
good
. It was good to worship a muscle goddess, especially one like her... it was right and proper to genuflect before strength and venerate it. But to be the
recipient
of such attention from a strong woman, and to know in one's heart that one's accomplishments fully merited it... there was little that could compare. A free and fair exchange of worship and reverence, strength recognizing strength, power acknowledge power, mutual desire fulfilled.
This was what we had now. This was the apex, the apogee, of achievement for us. We were living the dream.
Judith's hands went to my arms. "Do it," she urged me, her breath hot on my ear. "Do...
that thing you do
. Five times! All five!" So, she wanted me to push my limits! I could do three... sometimes four. But only rarely all five.
Her breath was hot on the nape of my neck. Her fingers dug into my flesh, expectantly.
"That thing" I did was not in fact any kind of song performed by some 60s one-hit wonder band. It was, I daresay, something quite a bit better.
I stretched my arms straight out to the sides, making as if I were about to embrace the world in front of me. Then I slowly clenched my fists. My corded forearms bulged, and then I made the tension spread to my upper arms, and shoulders.
"Ohhh, yes..." Judith moaned, in anticipation. She could feel the tightening beneath her fingertips, no doubt.
"Here it comes..." I said, through gritted teeth.
