Darcie had barely noticed me leaving. She was on the edge of sleep, exhausted.
Another of the bronze-skinned serving girls kneeled next to her, resting her hand gently on Darcie's knee.
"You should rest," she said, "but not sleep. There is no time for you."
Darcie shook herself awake. The girl was dressed like the other serving girls in the tent; silk pants, lots of gold and silver jewelry, plump breasts swinging free. Her black hair was piled on top of her head, just like the others. In truth, she looked remarkably like the other girls. They all look strikingly similar, with similar haircuts and classically beautiful faces, loose silk pants and bronze skin.
Darcie noticed that the woman had left her hand on Darcie's knee. It was a comforting, but intimate gesture.
"Your lover is learning an important teaching, it is one of the sacred revelations of my Lord," continued the woman. "Would you like to learn it?"
"I shouldn't," said Darcie, rising up on her elbows. "What is it going to cost me? I have nothing to give in return."
"This is a gift from my Lord," replied the girl.
"Someone told me there are no gifts in this place," said Darcie, suspicious.
The woman smiled, revealing perfect white teeth. Her eyes sparkled with amusement.
"You are right. I claim my price then. A kiss."
And with that she leaned forward, each hand on either side of Darcie, and softly placed her lips on Darcie's lips.
Darcie was surprised when the kiss lingered, turned into something else. The woman leaned in a little further, pressing her soft lips against Darcie's. Her tongue darted forward, probing, pushing Darcie's mouth open. Darcie didn't even think of resisting. She had become very aware of the woman's nipples brushing against her own, as the gentle swinging of her heavy breasts brought their nipples together. Darcie opened her mouth, letting her mouth be invaded by the sweet tasting tongue.
They kissed for a while, their tongues twirling around one another's. Darcie was becoming more and more aroused, her nipples hard and tight agains the woman's soft breasts. She squirmed a bit, raising a knee, finding her thighs brushing against the other woman's thighs.
Finally the woman pulled away, leaving Darcie suddenly wanting more.
"You paid the price, now I teach you," said the woman.
"That's it? that's the price? Can I pay again?" said Darcie with a smile.
The woman giggled. She kneeled down in front of Darcie, her hands on Darcie's knees, pushing them slightly apart so that she could fit between Darcie's legs.
"My Lord is a generous Lord. There is no need to pay anymore. Here is the teaching. The men have their rules, we women have ours. They lose their Prana with every ejaculation, we gain with every orgasm," she continued, suddenly serious.
"What's Prana?" asked Darcie.
"Your life force, that which sustains and feeds you. Now listen, though we do not lose Prana with each embrace, we lose in the effort. So we must learn to be receptive, and to receive and store the Prana we accumulate. You must learn to breathe," the woman said.
"Sounds simple," said Darcie.
The woman smiled mischievously.
"Everyone says that," she responded.
She leaned forward, as if for another kiss. But instead she reached with delicate fingers for the warm folds of Darcie's sex. Darcie gasped when she felt the tip of the woman's fingers brush against the soft and sensitive skin where her inner thigh swelled to become the outer lips of her sex. The woman leaned forward, her lips inches away from Darcie's.
"Breathe," she said softly.
Darcie tried, but the fingers brushing against her were becoming more insistent, tracing the long folds of flesh with the softest of touch. The woman let the back of her hand brush gently across the closed folds of Darcie's pussy, briefly pressing against the hood of her clit before fluttering back down, gently pressing her open.
"Breathe," repeated the woman.
Darcie took a deep breath. The woman was now nose to nose with Darcie. She herself took a deep breath, inviting Darcie to match her. Darcie took the hint and started to take long slow breaths. Her pussy was getting warmer, her clit swelling. The woman's skin, so close, had a hint of musk, of spices, but her her breath was fresh and sweet. Their eyes were locked in each others. Darcie licked her lips, her tongue brushing against the woman's own lips. The woman's tongue darted forward, brushing against Darcie. They weren't kissing, but breathing each other's air, their mouths inches apart, the tip of their tongues darting and touching.
When the woman's fingers parted the thick lips of her sex, Darcie tried very hard to maintain the deep breath of her teacher. She couldn't suppress a small gasp as a nimble finger wriggled it's way between the soft and wet inner lips. Her pussy was wet already, leaking her clear and musky nectar. That one finger traveled up, opening her, parting the folds of her sex until her clit was revealed. A single finger started slowly circling Darcie's clit, spreading her own wetness over it.
Darcie moaned, her eyes rolling back, her eyelids dropping, heavy with lust.
"Keep breathing," said the woman.
That finger never changed rhythm, just a slow and insistent circle around her clit. Darcie started to squirm.
