Page 55 of The Arabis Triad

There were no fated mates on Earth. No Triads who formed Quads, and certainly no mate-sync. And all that after being abducted and tortured.

“I’ve told you, no one on Earth believes that there are aliens,” she continued. “It’s a shock to me. It’ll be a shock to her, and to the other women, as well.”

“It is quite obnoxious to think that there is no life other than on one single planet,” Paxt said.

She tapped his chest. “I know that, but you have to understand there has been no contact. In fact, it’s the furthest thing from people’s minds. They have busy lives to lead. Careers. Families. Bills. I guess they’re not missing what they don’t know.”

“It will only be a matter of time. Life has a tendency to reach out to other life,” Paxt said.

“It already has.” And not in a good way. Who knew how long the Reptiles had been abducting people from Earth. How many women had died? Or worse? Her thoughts turned darker. “Maybe they know about what’s happening. The military hoards all kinds of secrets.”

She wouldn’t put it past them to keep or even allow happenings like that in exchange for technological advancement. What she wouldn’t give to write about it. World exclusive... with photographic evidence.

“You can talk to her if you’d like,” Coltan said.

She came back into the moment from her dark thoughts to discover Coltan and Ashir had joined them in the water. “I can?”

Coltan shrugged as though it was no big deal. “Yes. You can call her from the bridge. Although it takes some time to travel here, we can still communicate in no time at all. I’ll set it up with the Erion when we get back if you like.”

Evelyn nodded. “I’d like that very much. Can I talk to the others as well?”

“You can talk to all of them. They have been housed throughout the Homelands. Some have even been claimed by other Triads and have formed Quads throughout the planet,” Ashir said.

Evelyn sat up straight in Paxt’s arms. “Why didn’t you tell me that?”

“We would have, but you have been resting and recovering and we didn’t want to worry you.” Ashir frowned, looking adorably concerned.

Coltan swept her wet locks from her shoulder and kissed the sensitive spot at the base of her neck. “And you’ve been interested in other things. We also wanted to please you by keeping you in a state of complete and utter sexual-satiation.”

She shuddered as his hot tongue teased her flesh, made even hotter with the relative coolness of the water.

“I seem to remember being in this situation not so long ago.” She sighed, tilting her head so that he could work his magic on her skin.

“Yes. And I liked the way that turned out,” Ashir said, lifting her hand and suckling on her fingers.

Paxt turned her to straddle him. She eagerly wound her legs around his waist. Her clit rubbed on solid muscle and a sharp thrill raced through her. It certainly didn’t take much these days.

I like the way you respond so well to us. Paxt kissed her, deeply, passionately, as though he had all the time in the world. She guessed for the next week or so, they did.

Coltan slid his hand down her back and worked two fingers down her crevice, curving beneath her buttocks and erringly finding her entrance. She was already soaked and he slid into her core without resistance. He pumped his fingers in and out of her slowly, and her hips tilted with each plunge.

Feels so good, Coltan.

A rumbling chuckle answered her.I know.

As I know you also like this. Ashir nibbled the soft flesh on her earlobe, sending cascading shivers over her skin. She’d never considered her earlobe to be an especially erogenous zone, but she was happy to be shown differently. She was in heaven. Mentally. Sexually. Spiritually.

Paxt deepened their kiss as her arousal grew. She gripped Paxt’s horn and curled her fingers around the base. It pulsed in her grip and she held on as Coltan plunged his fingers inside her with strokes no longer aimed at stirring her arousal, but now to push her over the edge. Ashir sucked on her lobe, catching the tip between his teeth. His hand reached between herself and Paxt, tweaking her nipple.

Her climax crashed over her with an unexpected wave.

That’s right, sweetheart. Let us take you away. Paxt’s voice slid like silk through her mind.

Her muscles tightened and she screamed into Paxt’s mouth, blinded by ecstasy. Coltan and Ashir held her as Paxt gripped her hips, and before her orgasm had even subsided, he thrust into her. She reached a new golden peak as, with a few hard, deep thrusts, Paxt found his own release.

He eased out of her and turned her around in his arms. She was a boneless pile of pleasure, yet she reached for Coltan as he pressed against her. She wrapped her legs around his waist as he sought her entrance and gently pushed inside. Smiling, she curled both hands around his horns and slid her fingers from temple to end, as though she was stroking his shaft, knowing exactly what she was doing to him.

Every muscle in his body locked and a deep shudder worked through him. When he opened his eyes, he pierced her with a gaze so deep it sent chills through her. She shivered as a dark sensation slithered through her. She drew her hands back and forth, rubbing them all over his horns.
