She rocked, he thrust, and eventually, she screamed with her nails in the sheets. He lifted her while her body clasped his and wrapped his arms and wings around her.

She was warm, sated, and safe at that moment, so she started to cry.

He kissed her neck and asked, “Relieved that there is no more to come?”

She burst out laughing. “No, but it is a comforting thought.”

He chuckled. “Then why?”

“I felt warm and safe, and my hunger was gone. Those were the only things I have wished for in over two years, and I got them all tonight. I am overwhelmed.”

He nibbled at her shoulder. “I thought I was scaring you, but then you started responding, and I had what I was wishing for while dormant. I have a mate. Eventually, you will bear a little one for us.”

“Not unless there is a medical procedure to undo what the Vel-ech did to me. The first thing they did was deactivated my reproductive system.”

He covered her belly with his hand. “I know. I read the report the Vel-ech created, but the nanites are on it. They are rebuilding you. However, the thought of you with my young proves a little overwhelming for my instincts. Those are what you have been dealing with.”

“The gold eyes.”

“They are when I see you as everything I want, and I want itnow.”

“Ah. Got it.” She was beginning to realize that he hadn’t dwindled in her even a little.

He threaded his hand through her hair and held her head. The kiss wasn’t sweet; it was savage. He bit gently at her mouth and licked the punctures.

Kethen nuzzled her cheek. “You clench around me when my tongue touches yours.”

She shuddered. She had nothing to say. Her skin was tingling, and her body was humming.

He chuckled and licked delicately at her ear. “It seems that I took care of getting me all the way inside you. How are you feeling?”

“A little achy but not too bad.”

He licked at her jaw and then kissed her again. “Good. I believe that you were going to ride me tonight.”

She swallowed and tilted her head, so he obliged and nibbled her neck. “I thought you already had enough to eat.”

He chuckled. “Physically, yes, but I crave as much pleasure as you can part with.”

She swallowed again. “Can I try a few things you may or may not like?”

He moved quickly to lean against the headboard. “Do whatever you can to please yourself. If it pleases you, it pleases me.”

She was still straddling his wide hips and knew her thighs were going to ache from more than the bites. She frowned and rolled her hips, gasping at the slow stroke inside her. The squelching sound was a little embarrassing, but she put a hand against his chest and slowly undulated toward and away from him, and her eyes nearly rolled back in her head. She moaned and did it again. That stroke hit every fun part of her sex, and the forward grind caught her clit.

She shuddered and continued the slow forward roll. He chuckled and kissed her. The moment her mouth was open, soft, desperate sounds began to cross her lips.

The tension in her built until she faltered in her motion. She couldn’t keep building the pressure. She was trapped on the edge.

Kethen stroked her hair. “You appear to be stuck.”

She bit her lip and nodded. She rocked her hips again and whimpered. He kissed her, and she met his tongue with her own. He gripped her hips and moved her quickly in the exact stroke she had been using.

She gasped and widened her eyes as her body shook, and one final stroke left her shivering and twitching. She moaned low, and the cow-like sound would have made her blush if her cheeks weren’t crimson already.

He inhaled deeply, and she felt the wash of heat inside her.

Janessa dropped to his chest while her body jerked and shivered through the orgasm. He held her close and kissed her softly until her body finally relaxed.
