V's Not Just for Victory - Chapter 4

Lena was still in a blissful state of shock when she returned to her dorm. Kara had insisted upon walking her back, citing that it was because she wanted to go for a run and grab a drink from one of the vending machines, but Lena knew it was because it was late and her heat was in full swing. She felt safe walking back with Kara by her side and surprised when the alpha laced their fingers together. Kara had kissed her when they reached the steps of her building—softly and sweetly, but a little too long to be chaste.
 

Nobody had been around to catch them, and Lena found herself wondering if she would have cared if anyone discovered that she was interested in the alpha.

 

She continued to wonder as she showered, and settled in bed, until someone sent her a text. 

Lena smirked down at the new number, knowing that it was Kara, and laughed when she read it.
 

So are you wearing my shirt to bed, or did you burn it last night?
 

It crossed my mind but it’s too comfortable to be destroyed. Lena fired back, and squinted as Kara began typing immediately.

Show me?

Lena rolled her eyes, but a smirk tugged at her lips and she found herself peeling off the blanket even as she sassed the alpha with, So that’s the real reason you wanted my number? I’m not sending you nudes.
 

She didn’t wait to see Kara’s reply as she snapped a tasteful selfie in the alpha’s jersey and sent it over with a message. Now your turn.
 

Kara took her time responding, and Lena was curious about the kind of selfie she must be taking until the alpha sent a picture of Lena’s panties draped over her hand, with the caption, I’m not wearing these to bed but they’re all I have from you.
 

Lena laughed and Sam knocked on the door to make sure she was okay, so she had to fabricate a story about a funny viral video she had seen. 

Kara ended up sending a real selfie a while later. The alpha was sprawled out in bed wearing nothing but a sports bra and her abs still glistened from a shower. Lena hated how much she loved it.
 

When Lena woke up the next morning, she felt well rested despite a spiking heat fever. She considered taking heat suppressors again, but decided she didn’t want it to interfere with her plans with Kara that night. Instead she took a cold shower and spritzed herself with scent blockers before her team rallied into her room, eager to get to breakfast.

Sam whooped noisily and bounced onto her bed, and a few other omegas followed suit, but it was Nia who noticed Kara’s jersey still draped on a pillow where Lena had left it. 

“Is that Kara Danvers’ jersey?” Nia asked as confusion tightened her eyebrows together, and she turned around to show it to Lena.

 

Lena experienced a knee jerk reaction and yanked the shirt out of Nia’s hand. Her entire omega team quieted down and stared at her in expectation that she would answer the question.

“Of course it belongs to that arrogant alpha.” Lena’s strained voice sounded a little dreamy instead of hateful, and she pointed to Danvers’ name printed on the top. 

“What are you doing with it?” Sam frowned and reached up to pull the jersey from Lena’s hand, and although no one said as much, all of the omegas were breathing in Kara’s scents. 

Lena gulped and worried that they would guess that she had been messing around with Kara. 

“I stole it, because when we win tomorrow — which we will — I’m going to paint it with our Omega National symbol and use it like a banner.” Lena declared, coming up with an awful plot under pressure.

She realized that she took after her family — each Luthor who was vindictive enough to decide the downfall of their enemies in five seconds or less. 

“Oh, girl, that’s harsh,” Sam chided and then smirked and tossed the jersey back at her. “I can’t wait to celebrate our victory.” 

Lena couldn’t wait, either, but victory was the last thing on her mind as she clung to Kara’s jersey and inhaled. She wanted the alpha’s hands on her again and fantasized about Kara thrusting into her for the first time. Her impure thoughts changed her breathing, dilated her pupils and made her chew her bottom lip. 

Thankfully when Lena caught sight of herself in the mirror, she returned to her senses and dropped Kara’s shirt like she hadn’t delighted in falling asleep in it the night before. She kicked it out of the way, and led her team out of the room and towards the dining hall.

“Look,” Sam whispered, and linked her arm through Lena’s to show support. “I know you’re dead set on being our fearless leader, but if you’re suffering through your heat just to give us an edge, maybe you should take the suppressors.”

“I’ll be fine,” Lena stressed, her smile private as she thought of Kara and how she would be soothing the ache between her legs later that night. “There’s nothing in the rule book stating that I have to take them anyway, which is such an oversight.”
 

Sam laughed at her cunning plot, oblivious to the real reasons, and Lena felt a twinge of guilt that soon dissipated when they ventured into the cafeteria already filled with the alpha team.

Lena made a point of ignoring their tables, and the omegas hurried to fill their trays while Lena stole glances at Kara. Her phone buzzed, and she smirked down at the message that flashed across the screen.
 

Better grab an extra smoothie and fruit bowl. You’re gonna need all that energy for after the game.

Lena grabbed a banana instead of the fruit bowl, and though it hadn’t been her intention to be provocative, she found herself making eye contact with Kara when she sat down at her table and peeled it. The alpha’s interest sizzled through Lena when she parted her lips and took a bite. Lena caught Kate Kane staring at her with the same slack jawed hunger, and immediately quit her reckless flirtation before anyone else caught on.

 Despite being the last ones into the dining hall, the omegas were the first ones to make it to the basketball court, and just as they were starting to warm up, Eve rushed in with an apologetic pout on her lips.
 

“I’m here, don’t bench me!” Eve panted, her face flushed and lips redder than usual as she stopped by Lena to exhale in a wheeze, “I can explain why I was missing yesterday—”
 

“Save it for after the game,” Lena bit out, completely focused on the rest of the team as they all took shots at the hoop. “Get in line like the rest of us.”

Eve followed instructions and wedged herself between Sam and Kelly to practice lay-ups.
 

Lena watched with satisfaction as her team sank every ball and then ran drills, passing to one another until the alphas made their way onto the court. 

They came in with the same chaotic energy as a stampeding herd and Lena rolled her eyes for appearance’s sake. She stood at half court and observed Kara from afar as the alpha approached her in uniform—dark blue basketball shorts and a loose-fitting mesh top over a sports bra. 

Lena spent far too much time gawking, and she began to panic as her scents reflected her thorough arousal. Kara came straight towards her and she sensed curious eyes from both teams burning into her.

“Hey Danvers, I know you don’t have any balls, so here, let me help you out.” Lena pretended to be catty and chest-passed the ball she was holding to Kara, who grabbed it and then propped it against her hip. 

Kara sneered back at her, but the attitude didn’t reflect in her eyes as she let them trail down Lena, “That’s tough talk coming from someone who’s never seen a pair.” She shot back, and then brushed by Lena as she laughed to take a running jump at the basket.
 

Kara slam dunked the ball, much to the alpha team’s glee, and Maxwell grabbed it before the omegas could get their hands on it.

 

 “Aww, too slow.” Maxwell jeered as Kelly tried to snatch it back. He spun the ball arrogantly on his fingertip, and then passed it off to Oliver, who made a shot from the back of the court like the range was nothing.

 “Maybe you should get more experience handling them,” Kara remarked as she walked around Lena, posturing as if to intimidate, but Lena could hear the alpha’s soft inhalations and knew she just wanted to be in her radius.
 

“Well, if we’re volunteering,” Kate Kane chimed in with a slow grin that would have been charming had she not been staring at Lena’s cleavage.

 

 Kara gave a sharp look to Mike, who immediately hurled the ball at Kate to snap her out of it.

 

“We’re not.” Kara snarled, and rushed off to join her team for practice.

Lena stared after her with her mouth open in a scandalized expression, and Sam came up to comfort her. 

“We’re going to cream them today, Lena, just for you,” Sam reassured her with a pat on the back that knocked Lena out of her thirsty trance. 

She could practically imagine Kara joking around with another crude play on words, and telling her that she would be the one to get creamed later. It caused her to groan, and her skin prickled with humiliation as her pheromones threatened to give away her attraction to the alpha. 

Across the court, Kara seemed to be arguing with Kate and James Olsen over positions, and she caught her name on Kate’s lips. 

“I have height advantage and frankly, you should just assign me to point guard,” James insisted and crossed his arms over his broad chest when it appeared that Kara would dispute it. “You know Lena’s gonna be out there front and center and I’m the best chance we’ve got.” 

Lena stepped close enough to listen in, curious to see if he could convince Kara, but the alpha shook her head and assigned him to center. 

Rather than stick around to hear the rest of the discussion, Lena glanced over her team and worked out who would be covering each position. She half considered benching herself to avoid drawing too much attention, but the idea of being near Kara on the court was exciting.
 

The game would start in an hour, so she used her time wisely and coached her omegas on the strengths and weaknesses of the alpha team. 

“Kelly, I want you to cover Kate Kane. I think Kara is going to assign her to point guard.” She dictated and then eyed Eve and Sam, who she hoped would score them the most points. “Eve, focus on stealing their ball and getting it to Sam. Nia, defend our hoop at all costs. And I’ll handle Kara Danvers.” 

With their positions figured out, Lena walked her team onto the court with the same confidence that Kara exuded, but nobody else knew that the extra swagger in the alpha’s step was all down to Lena and how much Kara was into her.
 

They faced off against each other, showing off for their teams but also each other as they stopped short of colliding. The atmosphere they created together had everyone raring to go.

Kara raised her chin in that arrogant, cocky way that got Lena’s blood boiling in all the right ways, and she countered by quirking a dark brow at the alpha, challenging her without a word.

“There’s no way you’re winning this,” Kara taunted, the fire in her eyes anything but hostile as she added, “You’re going to get screwed.”

Lena didn’t bristle so much as shiver, but she had been expecting something smart from Kara that would fly under the radar of their teams. “I guess we’ll see how good you are at scoring.” She slung back, the private joke enough to make Kara inhale sharply.

Lena smirked at the way Kara’s pupils dilated from breathing in the perfume of her heat, the strong scent of her alpha pheromones unfurling in response. Lena sucked them in, held her lungs full of the spice, and exhaled softly like she was letting out a puff from a cigarette, although she had never smoked in her life.

The whistle blew to signal the start of the game, and when the ball was thrown up for the tip-off, it was Kara who smacked it first and sent it sailing towards Oliver.

The omegas fanned out and Kelly intercepted Oliver’s pass to Kate. Lena smirked to herself because she had been smart to assign someone to continuously flank the fast alpha.

She noticed with a glance over her shoulder that James was hanging around awkwardly and sniffing the air by her, and Lena hurried away from him to follow the ball down the court. 

It seemed that even through the scent maskers, the scents of her heat were full-bodied and desperate, and Lena could only blame Kara for that. They were both excited about what they were going to do that night, and it took all of Lena’s will to focus on the game for the time being. 

Kelly threw the ball to Sam, who tossed it into the hoop one-handed and scored the first points of the match. 

The omegas cheered and piled on Sam, who was modest and held her hands up as if her stellar performance meant nothing. 

 
After that first small victory, Lena ended up with the ball, and although she intended to pass it, there were no openings, so she dribbled it as far as she could. She reached an impasse when Kara tried to block her, and the alpha’s body heat was strong and palpable. 

Swiveling this way and that, Lena narrowly avoided Kara’s attempt to steal the ball, and then Kara was behind her, and it reminded her far too much of other positions they had been in together several times. Through Kara’s thin basketball shorts, Lena could feel the bulge of her cock. 

“Kara,” She softly cried out, but they were too close to each other and suddenly neither of them were paying attention to the ball. 

Kara leaned in to breathe in the fragrance from her neck and Lena reciprocated by relaxing into it, and then she had the presence of mind to toss the ball away from her. She wasn’t composed enough to aim, but she threw it and Eve grabbed it before someone else did. 

Eve didn’t make it far as Mike blocked her, and then she seemed to forget her footing and he intercepted the ball and hurled it up the court to James, who slammed it through the hoop for the alphas.

Kara’s cheer was belated, because she was still panting just behind Lena. Every hot puff of breath tickled the nape of Lena’s neck and slick soaked through her panties. Kara must have smelled it, because she growled under her breath without thinking, her alpha instincts taking over as she huffed Lena’s scent.
 

“Hey, keep that kind of aggression off the court!” Sam snapped in a complete misinterpretation of the noise.
 

Kara drew back a few paces to clear her head and Kate Kane drifted closer in her place while her captain was distracted.

Lena felt foggy and unfocused, her cunt had a pulse of its own, and she gulped down air in an attempt to cool off. “Come on, we got this.” She encouraged her team, forcing herself to stay present in the game as the ball passed overhead.

 

 Nia went for it and swept past Mike with a shit eating grin as she dribbled down the court. 

 

Lena followed, but found it impossible to keep up whenever Kara came within a certain range. Sweat trickled down the side of her face and she had hardly exerted herself. 

Sam must have noticed her struggling because she raced up to check on her after Nia sank the ball into the basket. 

“You okay?” Sam asked, sliding a hand onto Lena’s shoulder for a few seconds while they moved back into their positions. “Kara Danvers is really getting to you today, isn’t she?” 

Lena shook her head, but the way she gravitated towards Kara over and over again on the court truly began to affect her team’s performance. She lacked coordination whenever the alpha was near, and the temptation to press herself into Kara proved too great to avoid. 

The next play was a disaster, because Sam passed the ball to her and three alphas circled around her – not just Kara, but James and Kate – and for a few panicked seconds she thought that Kara might shove them both out of her path. Instead they all moved in, breathing her heat pheromones, and Kate’s hand slipped and grabbed at something that certainly was not the ball.
 

Lena fumbled and gave a yelp in shock as she covered her chest.
 

“Foul,” Winn shouted from the sidelines with his hands cupped to his face.

 

 “Lena, I’m so – I’m so sorry,” Kate stuttered out and raised her arms, backing off just in time for Kara to grab her and shove her aside.

Chaos erupted on the court, with the omega team running to rally around Lena, yelling at the alpha team for misconduct. Lena caught sight of the anger on Kara’s face, dark and unwavering, and her skin prickled from the potential fight about to break out.
 

The potent scent of Kara’s aggression was overpowering and though it stunned Lena, she couldn’t deny her inner omega responded to Kara’s immediate need to protect her and assert herself as the alpha in charge.

“It was an accident.” Kate explained, her face a shameful scarlet and jaw tense as she refused to be pushed off the court.
 

“Get. On. The. Bench.” Kara bit out viciously, her shoulders practically pressed into Kate’s to physically make her back down in a display that had everyone watching.
 

“But I didn’t mean it!” Kate shouted back, but the other alphas seemed to take Kara’s side to show unity and control as they stood behind their captain.
 

Kara snarled, teeth bared and fists balled as she hissed, “You think that matters? You want our team to have the reputation of groping the competition?”


It sounded like a rational reason to be so livid, but Lena knew it stemmed from Kara’s own interest and the desire to be seen as a capable alpha on and off the court for her.

 

It was a strange, though intense moment that had Lena struggling to breathe because this wasn’t just sportsmanship or posturing, it was Kara stepping up as her alpha, and it didn’t matter that nobody else understood that, because Lena did.

 

“No of course not.” Kate’s aggression slipped from her shoulders and she slumped and lowered her gaze, her head tipped to the side to bare her neck in submission.

“Bench, now.” Kara growled, and Kate slunk off to sit with her head in her hands. “Barry, take her place.” Kara snapped, and the rest of the alpha team hurried back to their spots as their captain turned to meet Lena’s eyes, so much softer and concerned as she silently asked if she was okay.

Lena nodded, even though she felt like swooning, and she was grateful her omega team still gathered around to offer her support. Everyone seemed to assume that her flustered appearance had to do with Kate’s mistake, and she took full advantage of that and continued to stare openly at Kara. 

“I hate these alphas,” Sam muttered under her breath and consoled Lena by bringing her a bottle of water. “After we win today and tomorrow, we don’t ever have to see them again.”
 

“Right,” Lena agreed, though she thought of the days of summer ahead and began to consider how much time she could spend with Kara in between her other obligations and family vacation.

She thought of the alpha picking her up for dates, and even going to the beach, an activity she often avoided because she always burned instead of tanned. Her daydreams were so distracting that she only jolted out of them to the sound of Miss Grant blowing a whistle at the alphas. 

 

“All of you better stay in line, or I will force you to forfeit and we’ll leave a day early,” Miss Grant announced, and then signaled to the referee to set up the free throw. 

Lena moved into place and the referee delivered the ball into her hands. When she glanced towards Kara, she could have sworn the alpha seemed on edge, like she wanted Lena to make the shot. It boosted her confidence and she sank the ball into the hoop without any trouble. 

The smirk on Kara’s lips went unnoticed by everyone else, but Lena honed in on it before the alpha spun around and the game continued.
 

They were fierce on the court, both teams ready to throw down to prove their worth and Kara seemed to guard Lena as much as block her, so that nobody else had the chance to accidentally cop a feel.
 

Sam continued to glower at the alphas as they played, and she used all of her outrage to sink another basket. Eve and Nia mouthed off to Oliver and Maxwell, and both of them came close to flipping the alphas off when they taunted them back. Kelly managed to score twice near the end, but they still lost by four points all the same.

The loss didn’t upset Lena as much as it probably should have, because thoughts of how she would be spending the night were already on her mind, but she lamented with her team and promised to take them all out for milkshakes and a pep talk.

Victory looked good on Kara, though Lena would never admit it, and she wondered if the alpha had given it her all not for her team, but to appeal to Lena’s baser instincts that would consider the alpha’s energy and power a benefit when picking her as a mate.

Lena puzzled over it even as she led her team off the court before the alphas had the chance to brag about their win. Her heart sped up when she returned to her locker and there was already a text from Kara waiting. She tried not to draw attention to herself and bit her lip to stop her smile when she read it.

 

You look so good when you give it your all. Wasn’t sure we would win.

And here I was just thinking the same about you, Lena typed back and then glanced up to find three of her friends watching her with curious expressions on their faces. She pretended to be checking social media, and then shoved the phone away before any of them saw a new message from Kara pop on her screen. 

“Lena, are you sure you want to go out tonight?” Sam asked with sympathy and glanced to Kelly, as if she wanted back-up to talk Lena out of it. 

“It’s just that you had a rough day and maybe you just want to get some rest tonight before the final match, not to mention the ridiculous dance and end of week ceremonies we’re supposed to attend tomorrow.” Kelly had a gentle way of speaking that Lena appreciated, but she didn’t want to be coddled after a loss, as much as it would have been nice to return to her dorm early to get ready for Kara’s arrival. 

“No, we’ll do milkshakes and I’ll still have plenty of time to decompress later,” Lena assured them, and then moved off towards the shower to wash the sweat from her skin. 

Fantasies of Kara popped into her head and if she had been alone, she might have indulged them, but the shame of being caught lusting after the alpha would too great to bear if anyone breathed in her heat pheromones.

Her phone dinged in her pocket multiple times while she was cleaning herself and toweling off, and then again when she joined the entire omega team for milkshakes at the small shop on campus.

“God, Lena, who has been blowing up your phone all night?” Kelly asked when she had sipped halfway through her strawberry shake. 

“Linda,” Lena blurted after catching sight of a passing waitress’ nametag. “Linda… Lee, an old friend of mine.” She blinked through the lie, and peered down at her phone to read Kara’s new messages. 

Her fibs served two purposes, because making up a fake friend meant she could also come up with a fake scenario and get advice in the name of helping out Linda. 

“She’s actually planning to sleep with her girlfriend tonight,” Lena revealed, keeping her tone casual and even, for fear of seeming too invested. “She’s never had sex before, and she’s asking my opinions about what to do, but I don’t really know what to tell her because I’ve never even dated anyone.”

“Ooh,” Sam exhaled in interest, her curiosity already spurring her on to ask, “So what is she asking about? Positions, foreplay, condoms? Because flavored sound good, but they definitely can’t be used for anything other than o—”

“Oh my god, wait,” Eve cut in, and Lena felt mortified at how eager her friends were to discuss it all. She warily glanced between them as they all huddled closer over the table to talk discreetly.
 

“What is it?” Nia asked as she absently stirred her shake. “Do you know her?”

 

 “No,” Eve laughed and pushed her drink aside to rest her elbows on the table. “It’s just that we don’t even know what Linda’s done yet. Like, has she even tried oral? What about fing—”

 

 “Errr, maybe we should lower our voices,” Kelly whispered and subtly motioned towards a few other peers at the table across from them that were staring.

 

 “Point taken,” Sam agreed and then nudged Lena to get her attention. “Tell Linda not to be afraid to tell her girlfriend if she doesn’t want to do something—and uh—that it’s okay to be vocal about it if it doesn’t feel good.”

 

“That won’t be a problem.” Lena scoffed, then almost died as she realized what she had said. She all but inhaled her own tongue as she hurried to explain, “I mean, she’s been telling me that her girlfriend’s gotten her off every time they’ve gotten heated, so I doubt she’ll be left unsatisfied.”
 

“Tell her to make a playlist.” Kelly suggested, and the group all nodded along “Music that sets the mood and makes her feel sexy.”

Nia pointed to Lena’s phone as if expecting her to write it all down and insisted, “And tell her not to skip foreplay—especially for her first time, because if she’s nervous, it won’t feel as good.”

Lena typed out the words foreplay and playlist into the message box. She planned to delete it, but Nia leaned a little closer so she panicked and ended up hitting the send button. 

 

Kara’s response was almost immediate and Lena blushed as she read it. Already thinking about that, huh?

 
All day, Lena admitted and tucked her cell back into her lap so no one would see that her contact was listed as Kara. 

“I think Linda’s biggest concern is condoms,” Lena murmured and wondered if it was going too far to actually solicit this much guidance from her friends. “She says she bought some, but her girlfriend is pretty endowed and they might not fit. The other option is having unprotected sex, except she doesn’t have a prescription for birth control pills.”

 
“She should just use the condoms,” Sam reasoned and slurped at the rest of her chocolate milkshake. “Especially if she’s doing it with an alpha who might knot in her.”

Lena nodded along to that, though it was little comfort to her when she was in heat and worried about taking a knot unprotected, but she also had fantasies of Kara sliding into her without the obstacle of a condom. 

 

“Or she can just get birth control pills,” Eve burst out with a glimmer of a smile pulling at her lips. “Don’t judge me, but as long as my partner has been screened, I’d rather take the pill.”

 “Yeah, but who really likes going to a pharmacy and getting judged?” Kelly interjected, and then turned to Lena to impart some blunt wisdom. “The least her partner can do is pick up condoms. Linda shouldn’t have to worry about that.”
 

“Or she could just pick the pills up on her campus, if she’s a student.” Nia casually pointed out with a not so subtle glance across the table to Eve as if she had accompanied her before. “Pretty sure every college has a supply, so they don’t lose half their students to pregnancy each year, and they’re free.”

“Seriously?” Sam sputtered and gawked at Nia with a dumbfounded expression on her face. “Why did I not know this?”

 

“The better question is why do I know this.” Nia fired back teasingly, much to Eve’s chagrin.
 

“I think that’s more than enough advice for me to pass onto Linda.” Lena quickly uttered, but the topic remained on sex until a waitress ventured over to ask if they wanted anything else, and Lena finally excused herself from the group with the excuse of having a headache.

She didn’t have one, but she couldn’t exactly say she had plans to sleep with Kara Danvers and needed time to actually stop by the infirmary office to procure pills. It was terribly embarrassing, but definitely worth it to get what she wanted. Lena hurried back to her dorm and swallowed one down before getting her room ready.


She changed the sheets, tidied her things, dusted and then took another shower, because her heat was so strong that she had begun to sweat nervously.

 

By the time she had dried her hair, dressed in sexy lingerie, and applied her make-up and a few spritzes of perfume, Kara was knocking on her door.

Lena wondered if the alpha felt as nervous as she did, and she paused with her hand on the door handle before sucking in a deep breath. She stepped back, and leaned her hip into her desk in what she hoped was a provocative stance before calling out, “It’s open.”

Kara didn’t hesitate, she pushed through the door and shut it behind her before her eyes even landed on Lena. She looked handsome in a navy blue button down shirt and jeans, holding the largest bouquet of magenta orchids and pink stargazer lilies clutched in one hand.

 

“These are for you,” Kara whispered, drinking in the sight of Lena in her set of pretty lingerie as she handed them over. “I thought maybe it would be nice to combine your favorite with mine.”

 
In her other hand, she held a bag that she offered Lena a little rigidly, almost like she was worried about giving it to her. “I brought you chocolates, and uh, some comics that I thought you might like, since you’re into sci-fi movies. Oh, and this.” Kara slid her hand into her back pocket and then presented Lena with a USB stick. “I made you a playlist.”

Lena accepted the bag and peeked inside to see the chocolates and comics, which she pulled out and appreciated one by one. She flipped through a few volumes of Supergirl and then placed them on her desk. 

“That was very thoughtful of you.” Lena reflected out loud and tried not to get hung up on the fact that Kara was putting in effort. It should be expected, because they were about to have sex and Lena deserved these romantic gestures.

 

Momentary awkwardness came over her and she wondered what she could give Kara in return, apart from what the alpha so obviously wanted. She reached for a teddy bear that wore an Omega National crest on a mini t-shirt. It smelled like her because it was usually arranged on her bed, and she pushed it into Kara’s hands before she could second guess her choice, or worry if the alpha would even want a stuffed toy. 

“I’ve had this since I started school here,” Lena explained and changed the subject with a clearing of her throat and by motioning to her desk chair. “You should sit. Do you want a drink or anything?”

 

Kara gripped the bear in one hand and if Lena wasn’t mistaken, the alpha even smiled over the gift. 

The faintest crinkle came from Kara’s pocket when she sat down and she shook her head at the offered drink. “Do you want me to set up the music?”

Lena squinted at Kara thoughtfully and then leaned over the alpha to reach her laptop. It was an intentional move to try and shake off the strange vibes that were forming between them and gave her an excuse to huff in the strong pheromones of Kara’s desire. “I’ve got it, just give me a second.” Lena exhaled, and shivered when Kara’s hands locked around her hips to guide her onto her lap.

 

“Is that better?” The alpha asked, her hot breath whispering over Lena’s pale neck.

Lena shifted subtly to rub her backside into Kara’s crotch and bit her lip when she felt her stiffen. “Definitely better,” She confided, and inserted the USB stick into the side port of her laptop. A pop up appeared on screen asking if she wanted to access the files, and Lena smirked as she teased, “Is this where I find out you’ve got terrible taste?”

 

“Doubt it,” Kara muttered a little distractedly, her hands roaming over Lena’s hips and waist. “I picked you, so obviously I have the best taste.”

Lena rewarded Kara’s suave comment by rocking in her lap, and through the soft material of her panties, she felt every inch of the alpha harden. It might have been uncomfortable because Kara was still wearing her jeans, but her cunt more than made up for it with silken, smooth arousal that allowed her to stimulate Kara as much as she wanted. 

Kara rumbled and attempted to guide her by tightening her grip on Lena’s hips, and then they both shifted at the same time to get the alpha’s pants down. 

“Boxers too,” Lena insisted and she did the honors, lowering them and tossing them towards her own laundry hamper. 

She thought they might get into bed after that, but Kara pulled her back into her lap and peeled off her panties, exhaling sharply as she admired her pussy. 

Lena liked the awed expression on Kara’s face and how the alpha’s hand covered her cunt and rubbed her wet lips open. 

She was stunned when Kara kissed her with tenderness rather than rough urgency, and she melted into it with her eyes closed and heart beating faster. 

Kara was no less commanding as usual, pushing Lena’s knee to make her open her thighs wider, but she was gentle with her as she traced the length of her slit. “You’re so wet,” Kara whispered against her lips, and Lena could tell how much the alpha liked that from the way her breath hitched.

Lena moaned when Kara’s finger dipped to her untouched entrance to very lightly rest against her delicate chastity. She tried not to squirm when the alpha teased at her hole with the barest touch, feeling how her muscles clenched in anticipation.

“I want to touch you like this for a little while,” Kara expressed sincerely, her middle finger gathering up Lena’s arousal to massage it into her clit with slow circles that caused Lena’s thighs to tremble. “Is that okay?”

Lena had barely uttered a breathless yes when Kara’s lips were on hers again. Kara kissed her like she was something to be treasured, soft and slow with just enough heat under the surface to remind Lena how much she wanted to do more with her.

The experience contrasted with every one that came before it, and yet the tension between them was still palpable, with the subtle and playful energy that came out during the competitions. 

Lena settled her hand around the alpha’s cock, though it swelled to where her fingers wouldn’t quite fit the circumference. She moved her other hand in and used both to stroke Kara, watching her face to make sure she was doing it correctly. It gratified her when Kara moaned, but then the alpha gently pried her fingers free. 

“What’s wrong? Are you going to give me another lesson?” Lena asked, and if she sounded touchy, it couldn’t be helped, though her tone softened as Kara ran her thumb between her pussy lips and spread them, exposing the seal of her purity. 

“Don’t want to finish too soon.” Kara murmured into the crook of her neck without a hint of shame as she peered down at her spread pink lips. She traced her finger over Lena in delicate strokes and applied the slightest pressure before backing off.

 

Lena couldn’t quite see what Kara was staring at, but a pretty blush still warmed her cheeks because she knew exactly what had captivated all of her attention.



“Do you want to lie down?” Kara asked, but she was already lifting Lena into her strong arms to carry her over to the small mattress. She stripped out of her shirt once Lena got comfortable and snatched up her jeans to rummage through her back pocket to retrieve a condom she brought along. “Not for right now,” Kara was quick to explain as she dropped it onto the nightstand by Lena’s bed. “Just so I don’t have to leave you to get it later.”

Kara moved to stretch out alongside Lena, her own body burning almost as hot as Lena’s as she kissed up her throat and slid her hand back between Lena’s thighs to cup her pussy. Kara explored her confidently, rubbing over her clit with two fingers until Lena moaned and arched up.

“Open your legs,” Kara husked, her mouth gliding over the sensitive skin of Lena’s breasts. “I want to use my fingers first,” She confessed with warmth and nuzzled into Lena’s cheek. “Can I?”

Lena nodded, because in spite of their long history of conflict, she trusted Kara would make it pleasurable. She knew this intuitively based on her complicated feelings for Kara and she took a few moments to prepare herself before fully moving her legs apart.

 

A tremor went through her when Kara teased her innocent hole and she uttered the first thing that came to her mind without thinking. “I never thought the biggest jerk I know would also be my first.” Lena froze when she realized what she had said, immediately horrified that she offended the alpha, who paused to look down at her.

Kara’s eyebrows arched before she laughed in surprise, but there was no anger in her voice as she promised, “I’ll be gentle.”
 

Lena still felt mortified, but it didn’t dampen the rage of her heat and she relaxed into the bed when Kara kissed along her jaw and down the slope of her neck.

Kara rubbed into her pussy with careful persistence and trailed a warm, wet path between her breasts. She nipped and kissed over her ribs and it was when she reached Lena’s hips that her intentions became clear.

 

 “Tell me if it’s too much, I want this to be good for you.” Kara intoned, her other hand linking with one of Lena’s as she settled on her stomach between Lena’s thighs and slipped her tongue between her glistening lips to lick at her clit.
 

The hot sensation of Kara’s tongue rolling over her had Lena gasping and she tightened her hand in the alpha’s as she writhed from the sweet attention.
 

When she began to exhale whimpers, Kara moaned encouragement and increased the pressure of her fingertip.
 

With a quiet cry and the barest twinge, Lena felt the resistance give way and Kara eased her finger inside to feel her soft, clenching walls. 

“Are you okay?” Kara groaned and began a slow penetration that brought on both relief and excitement. 

“It feels good,” Lena breathed out in amazement, since she had expected more discomfort than that, but Kara’s finger pushed in up to the first knuckle and her snug cunt gripped around it. 

It took her a little while to get accustomed to how her internal muscles contracted with Kara’s careful thrusting, but it loosened her subtly and soon she was moving her pelvis in time with the alpha’s motions. 

Kara continued to slide deeper, and soon she introduced a second finger that she only used to stretch her entrance without trying to pump into her. 

Lena gasped when her natural lubrication made it possible for Kara’s fingers to slip in, and she moaned at the noise of her cunt opening up for the alpha. 

She moved her legs farther apart and raised her hips up to take Kara’s fingers. “Please, a little harder,” she begged and soon she was listening to the sounds of Kara pounding into her like she had wanted all day long. 

Kara’s attention was split between her face and her pussy, and she muttered “Oh—wow—Lena” in wonder and gratitude. “I didn’t expect you to be able to take it like this your first time.”

 

Lena’s head tipped back into the pillow and a whine escaped her lips before she bit them. The new sensation of Kara crooking her fingertips had Lena restlessly rocking into her hand, and she groaned when the alpha’s tongue swirled around her clit, lifting her higher with the added stimulation.

“Oh, right there, faster.” Lena gasped out, her hand coming to rest on the top of Kara’s head. Every quick breath and shuddering moan was all part of the journey Kara was taking her on, and Lena gave in to it, trusting and desperate as she undulated against the alpha’s mouth.

The slick sound of Kara’s fingers driving into her cunt was lewd and Lena’s heat fevered mind couldn’t get enough of it. She felt pleasure prickle under her skin, sizzling through her veins and contorting her body as she arched up. “Yes, like that, I’m—”

The noise of Lena coming was provocative and Kara responded by groaning into her, her lips wrapped around Lena’s clit to try and prolong her orgasm.
 

Kara rolled her hips into the bed subtly and kept her fingers buried inside Lena’s pulsing cunt. She kissed her inner thighs reverently, but when she finally went to pull her fingers free, Lena whimpered and clamped her legs together.

“Not yet,” Lena breathlessly stated, and weakly tried to tug Kara up the bed. “I want you to do it again, but with you lying next to me so I can touch you too.”

Kara moved eagerly to nuzzle into Lena’s neck, nipping at her racing pulse as she informed her, “You’re so warm, Lena. I love feeling how you ripple around my fingers.” She showed Lena just how much she enjoyed it by guiding her hand down to her hard cock and kissed her as she began to thrust her fingers again.

 

Lena gathered the hot drizzle of Kara’s arousal in her palm and smoothed it down over her cock. Her thumb worked at the cleft along the tip while Kara in turn played with her clit. 

“Think about being inside me for the first time, Kara,” Lena whispered and moved her hand in a deliberate, tight stroke over Kara’s shaft.

 

Kara groaned and her pupils expanded, covering up the blue of her eyes like a cloud over the sky.
 

Alpha pheromones built up around her, and Lena inhaled and opened her mouth to Kara’s tongue, letting the fragrance take over her senses. 

It seduced her into opening her legs wider, and Kara rumbled at how she presented herself and slammed into her with a much more forceful thrust that left no doubt in Lena’s mind that sex was incredible. 

She reciprocated by jerking Kara’s cock from base to head until it turned a stimulated and throbbing purple. Clear beads of excitement dripped out when she passed her hand over it and Kara grunt-moaned. The thick vein along the bottom of Kara’s cock began to twitch and then a surge of come erupted from the top.

Lena rubbed it out onto her thighs and her cunt, and Kara roughly pronounced her name, “Uhhmph—Leee-nuh.”

 

At the same time, her fingers caressed Lena in a perfect, matched tempo, gliding along the cushiony inner spot where she craved to be touched and over her slit.
 

She came for a second time with Kara inside of her, and she must have looked good with her breasts heaving and a moan on her lips, because the alpha practically fell out of the bed in desperation to grab a condom.

“I’m on birth control,” Lena informed her with a sly smirk, which revealed that she was glad she waited until that second to tell Kara — otherwise, she would have missed out on the alpha making a fool of herself. 

“You are?” Kara asked, clearly stunned yet unable to hide her obvious appreciation as her cock bounced in excitement. “So you don’t want me to use this?”

Kara waited for Lena to shake her head, then dropped the condom like it was on fire to pounce back onto the bed with a hungry growl. Lena laughed, forgetting how shy she felt because Kara was staring at her like she was captivating.

 

“Do you have any idea how sexy you are?” Kara rumbled as she moved over Lena to pin her with her body and kissed her so fiercely that Lena forgot how to breathe. Between her heat and the raw desire emanating from the alpha, Lena was close to combusting in the best possible way, and she wrapped her arms around Kara to pull her closer.

“Why don’t you show me?” Lena lilted back, and boldly licked over Kara’s lower lip before catching it between her teeth and sucking on it. 

Kara’s eyes glazed over and she pushed her hand down to grip the base of her cock. She positioned herself at Lena’s entrance without pushing in, and then searched Lena’s eyes. “Are you sure you’re ready? Because I can wait if you’re not.”

 

 It was the closest Kara had gotten to saying she wanted to date her, that there would be more time for this in the future — but Lena had never felt more ready.

“I’m so sure,” Lena whispered, reaching up to cup Kara’s face, and that simple touch was somehow more intimate than what they had already done. She stared up at Kara through her heavy dark lashes and parted her lips to exhale a quiet moan when the alpha rolled her hips to push forward.

 

 The slight twinge of pain was expected, but Lena’s heat was so powerful that she focused on the stretch of her cunt and how warm Kara was as she eased just the tip of her cock inside her tight entrance.

 

Kara was breathing heavier, her arms shaking as she tried to fight her urges to plunge into her silken heat. The first moan fell from her lips to praise Lena — a gravelly, “God—”

 

”Lena, open up.”

The sound of thumping broke their lustful haze and they both looked towards the door, which Eve rattled on its hinges.

“Lena, I know you're still mad at me, but I swear I can explain. I’m sorry!” Eve called out pathetically. 

“Of all the times to explain herself, she picks now.” Lena grumbled, her libido shrinking along with something else as Kara pulled back to gawk at her.

 

“I know you’re in there, please let me in.” Eve wailed from the other side of the door.
 

Lena shoved Kara to scramble off the bed and began to raid her closet to pull on a nightdress as she yelled, “Give me a minute!”
 

She scooped up Kara’s clothes and pushed them into the startled alpha’s arms and then backed her into the closet.
 

“You can’t be serious.” Kara whispered, her face falling as Lena hid her away.

“It won’t be for long.” Lena reasoned in lieu of an apology, then shut the closet door before hiding the bag of comics and chocolates, and closing the laptop that was still playing the music Kara had brought over. She sprayed the room with scent maskers and combed her hair with her fingers before unlocking the door.
 

“You couldn’t have just called?” Lena snapped, red faced and breathless as she greeted her friend.

 

 Eve hurried into her room with big, sad eyes and flailed as she spoke. “Yeah, I tried that five times, and when you wouldn’t pick up, I knew you were still furious with me.”

 

“Oh, I’m livid,” Lena emphasized with honesty, and she hoped her resentment showed in her cool green eyes and firm jaw. “So livid, in fact, that you can get out.”

Much to her disappointment, Eve shook her head and reached out to take her hand. “Please just listen to me. I can live with you being angry if you’ll at least hear me out.”

Lena tried not to think of the slick pooling between her thighs as Eve sat on the edge of her bed. She perched next to her distraught friend and sighed out, “Fine, tell me why you weren’t at the volleyball match.”

 

“Two words: Michael Matthews.” Eve bent her head as if she expected Lena to judge her for messing around with that alpha, but Lena only quirked an eyebrow at her. 

 
“I went with him back to the alpha dorm and we both got sloppy drunk,” Eve admitted with her next breath and then she flopped back on Lena’s bed, making herself comfortable in the spot Kara had previously occupied. 

“I’ve never been so sick or so hungover before in my life, and if it wasn’t for Kara Danvers, I honestly think I would have gotten myself expelled that night.” Eve chuckled over her foolishness and her face turned pink with shame.

It surprised Lena to hear Kara mentioned as part of the story, and then it struck her that she never did give the alpha the chance to tell her the reason why she failed to show up the night before. Lena had assumed it was all part of a mind game, but Kara must have been helping Mike and Eve out.  

 

“What’s this got to do with that arrogant ass of a team captain?” Lena scoffed, fully aware that Kara could hear her in the closet. Her tone lacked bite but her eyes were curiously burning into Eve for answers to questions she hadn’t yet asked.
 

“I’ll get to that.” Eve promised, and settled in like she planned to stay longer than two minutes. “So, Mike invites me back to his dorm room for a few drinks, but I had no idea we’d be sneaking into someone else’s room to get them. So he comes running out with two bottles. It was stupid to go with him, I know it, but he was so proud of himself and his grin—”
 

“You can skip all of that.” Lena cut in quickly, because if she had to hear about how cute Mike was, she would lose her libido forever.

 

“Right, so we’re in his room and we start playing truth or shot to get to know each other.” Eve smiled as if she was recalling fond memories then reddened further as she murmured, “We drank like, a bottle between us—”
 

“A bottle of what?” Lena pressed, already dreading the answer and swallowing back her disgust over how smitten Eve seemed.
 

“Vodka, I think? It tasted awful, but the buzz was great, and we were making out and stripping off, and that’s when...” Eve scrunched her face up and then slapped her hands over her face. “He threw up. And then I threw up because it splashed me, and then he threw up again, and god Lena, the smell, and it went everywhere.”
 

Lena felt her stomach churning at the mere mention of it and she grimaced and shook her head. “Please, don’t go into detail about it.”
 

“So, Kara must have heard us stumbling around wailing because she came in, saw the state of his room and us and started questioning him about where he got the alcohol, and Lena, he took it from his mom, Rhea.”

“Nooo,” Lena exhaled in a rush. “She’s our coordinator.”
 

“I know!” Eve laughed, as if her mind was blown by that revelation. “So Kara grabbed the bottles and ran across campus to stash them back where they belonged and then came back like ten minutes later with a bucket and gloves and started cleaning up our mess. Mike passed out and I was just crying because I was drunk off my ass, and then Rhea barged in, because someone ratted on Mike taking the booze and he’s not 21 yet. Kara pointed to us and told her that we had some kind of bug and nobody was drinking. Rhea couldn’t find any bottles and the stench was enough to drive her off.”
 

Lena couldn’t believe that she was hearing this, and she leaned forward, invested in the story now that it was giving her insight into who Kara was as a person. “So, then what happened?”

 

“Look, I know you think Kara’s this cocky douche, and I mean she is, but we’re wrong about her.” Eve concluded before she continued with an embarrassed noise that stuck in her throat. “She took me back to her dorm and cleaned me up and sat with me the whole night while the room was spinning. She even held my hair when I puked into a bucket. I begged her not to tell anyone what happened and she promised she wouldn’t. She gave me her bed and slept on the floor, and in the morning she left me a bottle of water and some Advil with a note that said Mike’s an idiot but he likes me, and then left me his number. So I called him and we talked for hours until our hangover started to lift and then we had a late lunch.”

 

Lena experienced a sharp sting of guilt over how horrible she had been to Kara yesterday, and whispered, “So she didn’t—”

“She didn’t what?” Eve asked curiously, but then someone knocked on Lena’s door and Eve shot up to answer it like it was her own room.

 

“Whoa, Lena, I knew you were sad about losing, but that is a lot of comfort food for one person.” Eve exclaimed, taking two bags from the delivery guy who insisted it was already paid for with tip. She closed the door and brought over the take-out that looked more classy than pizza and began lifting out containers.

“This looks amazing, and there’s no way you can eat it all yourself.” Eve stated and opened one of the containers to breathe in the delicious scents.
 

Lena’s phone dinged, and she lifted it to read the message while Eve was distracted.
 

Don’t listen to her, I have a reputation to uphold as an arrogant asshole.
 

Lena smirked, her gaze lingering on the closet as she sent back, You ordered us a feast?
 

Lena’s phone lit up a few seconds later with another quick message from Kara. Surprise. I didn’t know what you liked so I ordered a lot. Save me some?

Of course. You really wanted to make this romantic, didn’t you?  Lena typed and hit the enter button just in time before Eve saw the message.
 

“Did someone send you flowers?” Eve asked with a fork in one hand and a clear-lidded container of chicken parmigiana in the other. She motioned towards the bouquet on the desk and eyed Lena in intrigue.
 

“Yeah,” Lena admitted and began digging through all of the food Kara ordered. “Actually, I’m seeing someone. Every day I get to know her a little bit better and I’m starting to develop feelings for her.”

Although Kara was out of sight in the closet, Lena knew that the alpha would hear every word. 

 
“Oh, tell me more,” Eve gushed, and without giving herself away with any particular details that could be traced back to Kara, Lena opened up and did just that.
