When we got back to the apartment, I changed into my sleep clothes, put fresh sheets on the bed, and set about finding a movie for us to watch. Ren, for her part, seemed content to simply look at the movie covers while I sorted through my collection. After a bit, I found my favorite film: a road comedy with two brothers and their band getting into misadventures around Chicago while on a "mission from God". I figured it would be a great way to introduce Ren to movies, so I pulled the DVD from its steelbook and popped it into my gaming computer, which was hooked to the TV. I pulled the comically large duvet off the back of the couch and sat down. Suddenly, Ren was laying behind me completely naked, her clothing and robe folded neatly on the floor.

"Would you care to join me, lover?"

"Uh, Ren… this isn't a sex thing. I legitimately want us to watch this movie. It's great. I think you'll like it."

"Oh, I am quite interested in the movie. I had not planned to engage in anything beyond perhaps teasing your penis somewhat. I will pay attention."

"You… you know that you don't have to do that, right? We can just cuddle and be close together while we watch the movie, like… like a couple would."

"Does this mean you consider us to be in a relationship?"

"After everything that's gone on over the past twenty-four hours or so, I don't see how we couldn't be in one."

"I am very pleased to hear you say this."

With that, I got onto the couch, pulled the duvet over us (amazingly, it was big enough to cover Ren), and started the movie. Ren snuggled into me, nestling my head into her cleavage.

The movie went well, although I had to pause at several points to answer questions from Ren.

"Why is that woman hitting those men with a piece of wood?"

"What is that place they are driving through with all of the people?"

"How did their car flip around like that in midair?"

When the movie was over, I tried to get up to put the DVD back, but Ren's arms held me close. I pushed against her arms, but it was of no use. She was just too strong.

"Ren, honey?"

"Yes?"

"Will you let me get up? I need to put the DVD away."

"That can wait. I wish to continue cuddling with you."

"Ren, honey, we can cuddle more afterwards. Please let me up?"

"If I must."

"Thank you. It'll just be a minute."

I got up, turned the TV off, placed the keyboard and mouse in their normal spots, and put the DVD away in its case. When I turned back, Ren was no longer on the couch, and neither was the duvet.

Where did she go now?

I took a few steps and looked into the bedroom. Ren was floating above my bed holding the duvet, beckoning me in with one finger. Chuckling to myself, I walked in to join her.

"Did you decide you'd rather cuddle in here?"

"I thought it would be more comfortable, since it is, as you say, getting late."

"That's true. I take it you want to sleep in here?"

"I do not sleep, but yes, I wish to be near you while you sleep."

"Alright, Ren, that's fine with me."

Ren floated down to the bed, clearly ready to continue being the big spoon. I slid into bed, pulled the duvet over us, and nestled against Ren's body, trying to ignore my current pants situation.

"Good night, Ren."

"Good night."

When I awoke, Ren was still in the bed with me, holding me close like a child would hold a teddy bear. I had an idea for breakfast, but I would first have to escape the clutches of my superhuman girlfriend. That thought caused me to chuckle at its improbability, which must have signaled to Ren that I was awake, as she shifted her arms slightly.

"Good morning, Ren. Did the night go okay?"

"Good… morning. Yes, the night passed without incident. I was simply pleased to be near you."

"I hope you weren't bored just laying there all night."

"Not at all. I was simply replaying the events of the last forty-eight hours in my mind. It was quite enjoyable."

"I'm glad. So, ready for breakfast?"

"Yes. Shall I purchase more breakfast sandwiches?"

"No, no, not today. I'm going to cook."

"Then I shall prepare myself for your glorious foods."

"I mean… I don't know how 'glorious' oatmeal is, but it'll be good, especially on a cold morning like this."

With that, I got up and shuffled into the kitchen. I dug out a large pot and rinsed it, then found the measuring cups, oatmeal, milk, brown sugar, and salt (chemically speaking, adding salt to water makes it boil at a lower temperature). I portioned out the water and milk (roughly equal parts of each makes for creamier oatmeal) and added the salt, then set the pot on the stove eye to begin heating. I then set about making toast to go with the oatmeal. At this point, Ren walked out of the bedroom. Apparently, the robe was not her favorite thing, because she was still naked. I did my best to keep my blood above my waist for safety reasons (distractions leads to injuries). Once the water/milk mixture started to boil, I lowered the heat and added the oats (rolled oats cook faster and give a slightly thicker oatmeal).

"How does this device work?"

Ren was standing behind me, peering over my shoulder.

"Oh, the stove? It runs electricity through these rings, which makes them heat up whatever you're trying to cook."

Ren lifted the oatmeal pot and placed her hand directly on the eye.

"It does not feel hot."

"Ren, honey, please put the oatmeal back down. It's not done yet. Also, you shouldn't place your hands directly on a hot stove. That's a great way to stand out."

"Oh. My apologies."

Despite the slight heating interruption, the oatmeal turned out fine. I added a generous portion of brown sugar to the mixture and let it dissolve before grabbing two bowls and scooping a hearty portion of oatmeal into each. I buttered the toast, then brought the bowls and toast over to the table where Ren patiently sat.

"Here we go, oatmeal and toast. A nice warm breakfast for a cold winter's day."

"Thank you very much. I look forward to trying it."

Ren watched me carefully as I got a spoonful, blew on it to cool it down, then placed it in my mouth. Ren did the same, although her attempt to cool the oatmeal went a bit too far, forming ice crystals around the spoon. She then placed her spoon in her mouth as though this was normal. She began chewing slowly, then raised an eyebrow.

"This has an… interesting flavor. Very metallic and cold. I am unsure if I am eating this correctly."

"Um… Ren? You… you ate part of your spoon."

"Oh. I am sorry. I did not intend to do so."

"It's okay. Do you… need to spit that out?"

"No, it is gone now."

"Gone as in swallowed, or…?"

"It seems that I have crushed it to mere atoms between my teeth."

"…I… I see. Well, let me get you another spoon, and you can try it again."

"Thank you. I believe I feel… embarrassment."

"It's really okay, Ren. Don't worry about it. Besides, practice makes perfect."

I got up and grabbed another spoon, desperately trying not to think about how hot Ren's mistake was. She had completely frozen the oatmeal without thinking, bitten off the end of her spoon, then effortlessly crushed it all to nothing between her teeth! It was hard to remain standing, much less maintain a sense of calm about the whole situation.

"H-here's another spoon, Ren."

"Thank you. I believe I will observe you eating again to prevent further mistakes."

"That's fine."

It was not exactly fine. I was shaking slightly, and that made eating oatmeal somewhat difficult. I wanted to show Ren the right way to eat it, but her wrong way had sent me into quite a state.

"Here, watch me."

I took another spoonful and blew on it.

"Now, use your teeth and lips to gently scrape all the oatmeal off the spoon."

I placed the spoonful in my mouth, then removed the spoon. I chewed slowly, then swallowed.

"See?"

"Oh, yes, I understand my mistake. Although, you appear to be quite upset by it."

"No, no, I'm not upset, just… wow. You're really strong."

"Oh, and my strength… excites you. I understand now."

"Y-yeah. Oh, but Ren?"

"Yes?"

"Please don't destroy any more silverware… at least not on purpose."

"I understand."

"Have you been crushing food like that this whole time?"

"Yes. I was unaware that was incorrect."

"Ah. Well… I suppose since you don't need to eat, it's not a big deal. Still, maybe try to chew more gently so you have something to swallow, okay?"

"Oh, like the coffee, and your cum, yes?"

"…hoo boy… yes, that's… that's right."

"I will endeavor to swallow more."

Ren looked down at my crotch, eyes glowing, and winked at me.

Oh lord…

"I… wow… oh, so I need to go in to the lab today."

"The lab? What is that?"

"It's where I'm doing my graduate research. I need to go check on an important experiment."

"Do you wish for me to accompany you?"

"You don't have to. I shouldn't be gone more than an hour. I just need to make sure things haven't gotten messed up somehow."

"If you wish for me to remain here, I will do so."

"Okay. I promise, it won't take too long."

After breakfast, I showered, dressed, and got ready to head to campus.

"Okay, Ren, I'm headed to the lab for a bit. Take it easy while I'm gone, okay?"

"Alright. Please do not be gone too long."

"I won't. Here, let me kiss you before I go."

Ren was suddenly holding me in midair again.

"Of course, lover."

We kissed for a few minutes, Ren's tongue probing my mouth needily. She held my chin with one finger this time, her other hand feeling my crotch swell with excitement. Finally, she set me back on the ground, pouting as she did so.

"Wow… I have to go now. See you in a little while, Ren."

"Hurry back, sexy."

Gulp.

"I will. Believe me, I will."

I welcomed the cold as I stepped outside, as it meant I would likely be able to think straight more quickly. I got in the Buick, took a few deep breaths to clear my head, and headed for campus.

My research lab was on the fourth floor of the old sciences building, not too far from where my office had been while I was teaching. Dr. Rachel Starling, my research advisor, was in the lab puttering about as usual, even on a Saturday.

"What are you doing here? I told you that I'd keep an eye on your experiment over the break."

"Sorry, Doc. I just wanted to be sure about things, and I also thought I could use an outing to clear my head."

"Well, your experiment is fine, don't worry. Crystallization seems to be going well, and I haven't noticed any sort of anomalies. I'd dare say that you'll have some good samples for us to test by the beginning of the year. Still, you need to relax. You've been working really hard lately, especially stepping up to teach that Physics class. Don't worry about a thing here, okay?"

"Alright, Doc. I'll try to relax. Please try not to be here all night again, okay?"

"You know I can't promise that, but I'll try."

"Right. See you later, Doc."

Dr. Starling waved at me as I walked out of the lab.

Well, that went a lot faster than I expected. Now what?

I decided to drive back past Night of the Living Threads, as well as the site of Ren's engine-ectomy operation. Erika's Jeep was still in the same spot, police caution tape surrounding the whole vehicle.

Looks like she called the cops. Great.

As I mulled over the situation, I came to the conclusion that the police likely wouldn't be able to connect anything back to Ren. There was no way they would suspect an impossibly strong superwoman had simply kicked the engine into the pavement. That was outside the realm of possibility as far as the cops were concerned. I decided that it was better not to stick around and puzzle over it, as someone might get suspicious. I drove the rest of the way back to the apartment and headed inside.

"Ren? I'm back. Everything okay?"

No answer.

Huh. Ren must have stepped out for a bit.

A sudden gust of wind from behind me told me that Ren had just returned.

"Welcome home, sexy."

"Welcome home yourself. Where'd you run off to?"

"I did not run anywhere. I flew."

"Okay, then where did you fly off to?"

"I visited a volcano in Hawaii. I felt as though a nice soak was in order."

"Wait… a soak in a volcano? I guess I shouldn't be too surprised by this."

"Yes. I did not feel as though I had time to enjoy a proper bit of sunbathing."

"Well, I mean, sunbathing seems a lot less intense than a volcano bath… wait, you don't mean…"

"The Sun is so warm and inviting. I enjoy floating amid the constant fusion reactions. Such a pleasant tingly feeling."

I nearly fell over at this statement. As Ren caught and held me like I weighed nothing at all, I shook my head. Faster than light, able to crush metal out of existence with only her teeth, and durable enough to swim in the literal Sun? Is there anything Ren can't do?

"Are you alright? Do you require medical assistance?"

Oh, right, she can't quite pass for human. That's what she can't do.

"I'm okay, I'm okay. Just… your powers are hard to process sometimes."

"I apologize. I did not mean to cause you any distress."

"You're fine, Ren. Don't worry. It's just going to take some getting used to that you apparently have no real limits to your power."

"As far as I am aware, there is only one limit to my abilities."

"What's that?"

"You. I will not do anything that could hurt you."

"Thank you, Ren. That means a lot to me."

"You are most welcome. Now, could we partake in more sexual activities? I wish to further practice swallowing."

Gulp.

"S-sure, Ren. That sounds like fun."

"Hold on, lover. I have an idea."

With that, Ren seems to almost flicker, surely a consequence of moving at superhuman speeds and returning to her original position. She came back holding a large mangled lump of metal in one hand, which I quickly realized was Erika's Jeep's former engine. She had run to downtown, ripped the engine block out of the pavement, and returned with it faster than someone could blink.

"I found a new toy for us. Do you approve?"

"Ren, that's incredibly sexy, but the noise will surely alert the neighbors."

Ren's eyes glowed slightly as she looked around the apartment.

"All of the apartments near us have been vacated, most likely for the winter holiday. Nobody will be disturbed by my demonstration."

"Alright, but how are the floors supporting all that weight?"

"The floors are unaffected by the weight of my new toy. I am supporting all of the weight by floating."

As I looked at her feet, I could tell that, yes, Ren was in fact hovering less than an inch off the floor.

I guess that explains how she can move so quietly in those boots.

"Okay, sorry. Sometimes I can't help but be so bogged down in how the world works that I forget how you work."

"So, may I perform a demonstration for you with my new toy?"

"Of course, Ren. Just… let me change out of these clothes. I only have so many pairs of pants."

With that, I jogged to the bedroom (as well as I could manage with three legs) and began removing my clothes. Ren floated in behind me and settled on hovering just above the bed, still holding the engine block in one hand.

"Are you ready to begin?"

"As ready as I'll ever be. Where do you want me?"

"Simply stand there. Do not touch your penis. I wish to observe how my strength affects you and your body."

"…hoo boy… alright, go for it."

Ren began by tossing the engine block up slightly, just enough to show light between the engine and her hand. The engine came down on her hand with a loud THUD. The impact vibrated my body, even from across the room. My cock, already hard, twitched with the vibration. Ren raised her eyebrow seductively and tossed the engine several more times, enjoying the sight of my cock throbbing with each catch.

Ren's next act was to move the side of the engine block close to her mouth for a few seconds, the sounds of tortured metal ringing through the apartment. She then turned the lump of steel around to show her handiwork: a heart she had carved into the metal with her tongue. Remembering what else she had done with that tongue, I shuddered as she licked her full, luscious lips.

Next, Ren raised the base of the engine block to her breasts, gently teasing her nipples with the cold steel. Her nipples responded by snapping erect with the sound of bullets hitting a metal target. She then removed her hands from the engine, fully supporting the mass with just her teats. Her breasts remained as full and firm as before, not reacting to the mass in even the slightest. My shaft, which I had thought was fully erect, surged with another inch of growth.

Ren then gripped the engine block with her left hand, fingers probing deep into the steel, and repositioned it such that the cylinders were facing towards me. It only later dawned on me that this hold would make the lift much more difficult, but she still held it as effortlessly as a sheet of paper. Her next move was to slowly shove her right arm through one of the cylinders, her fist crushing the weak metal she was displacing. Once the engine block was hanging from her upper arm, she began to flex. I watched in awe as her bicep peak rose straight through the steel as though it was air. My cock responded with another burst of growth, now putting it at around nine inches.

The engine block, now barely able to support its own weight with the scant bits of metal still holding it to Ren's arm, began to shriek as the steel gave way and the engine began to fall. Ren's left hand shot out and caught the mass of metal between two fingers before it could fall to the ground. She then guided the engine block to her defined abs and began to rub the metal over them. I could hear pieces of metal being grated off like cheese against her infinitely harder midsection. This sent another wave of arousal through my shaft, causing it to grow another inch.

Ren must have decided that it was time for the grand finale, because she then lifted the mangled engine block to her chest and began crushing it in a bear hug. I knew she didn't need her arms to crush it down; she simply needed to reach all the way around the tortured lump of metal. Once the middle of the engine had been crushed enough, she removed her arms, but the engine didn't fall. It was now trapped between her breasts. Ren then began forcing the top and bottom of the engine together, her breasts holding the center of the mass firmly in place.

After a few minutes, Ren reached between her breasts and pulled out a foot-long rod that had once been the engine block. She then floated towards me, inviting me to watch as she inserted the rod into her moist hot vagina. Ren then put her hands behind her head and smirked. I looked down to see the former engine moving in and out of her all on its own. Ren was using her vaginal muscles to fuck herself with the mass of the engine. The rod seemed to be getting shorter and shorter with each thrust. Steam billowed from her snatch, her juices being heated to boiling by the pressure on the engine.

Could Ren be crushing the rod to nothing inside her?

That thought sent me over the edge. My cock surged another inch as I fought my release as long as I could. Just as I couldn't hold myself back any more, Ren was suddenly holding me up and sucking on my over-engorged shaft, swallowing every drop of what felt like gallons of cum. As she swallowed my seed, she must have had her own orgasm, as that long, low moan began vibrating my whole body, and the former engine disappeared, completely obliterated inside her.

"Mmmmmm… I would call that a successful experiment. Such delicious growth from your cock…"

"I… I didn't think that sort of thing could happen… wow… I wonder if this growth is permanent…"

"Let us hope so. I would very much enjoy having its full size in my mouth, or perhaps my vagina."

"Uh… maybe not your vagina. I mean… you just crushed a car engine out of existence in there…"

"I have total control over my abilities. I would never hurt you."

"…okay, Ren. I trust you."

"Oh, thank you for the practice with swallowing. It is greatly appreciated.

"You're… you're welcome… so, uh, what do you want to do now?"

"Do you wish to eat? I have heard many positive things about 'waffles'…"
