He growled low. It was a sound that went right through me every time. I kicked off my boots just before he gripped my hips and lifted me off my feet. I wrapped my legs around him, rocking against his hard cock as he lowered me onto the spongy moss. The chill of the rain melted away when we were together and I completely forgot about it. I was burning up inside, so hot I expected to see steam coming off my skin.
I closed my eyes, droplets of water tickling my body as Vahko kissed his way down my neck. His lips danced over my breasts, down my belly, then to my hip as he slid his fingers under my waistband and began to pull my leggings down. When I’d been stripped of them, I opened my eyes again and lifted my head to watch him lick his way back up my leg. His skin was that pale purple color again with hints of darker shades on his crown and it turned me on so much more than it had a right to. His wet braids slid across my thigh when his mouth came to my sex, his tongue gliding up my seam. When it passed over my clit, I twitched with pleasure, muffling a whimper. He licked again, expertly swirling his tongue until I was shaking.
And then I felt him inside me.
I stared up at the netted tree canopy arching over us, my fingers sinking into the moss around me. Vahko nudged his tongue deeper until his lips were around my clit, sucking and torturing me. I could have come against his mouth alone, but then he drew back. Eyes heavy, I peered up at him as he got to his feet and loomed over me.
I watched Vahko strip, revealing his perfect, sculpted form to me in its entirety. There was no half-asleep frenzy to blur him out or darkness to shroud him. I was slack jawed, mybody prickling with desire. His cock, with its soft ridges and subtle curve, stood thick and hard toward his navel, the colors extending to the very tip where they were darker and more vibrant. Near the very base were two small nodes, but no testicles like on a human man. There wasn’t an ounce of hair on him, either and I was curious as to why not. I was curious about everything.
I couldn’t help myself. I got to my knees before him, curling my fingers around his girth. He shuddered under my hand and it made my stomach flutter. I had never wanted a man’s dick in my mouth, but I wanted Vahko. I wanted him in every way I could possibly have him and without hesitating, I licked my tongue up the ridged underside of his cock and listened to him moan. He had power over me but I had power over him, too. And I fucking loved it.
Sliding my fist down his shaft, I closed my lips over the tip and swirled my tongue around it. I’d done this before… in simulations. The real thing was so much different. So much more intimate and wonderful and arousing. I pushed against him, taking as much of him as I could. Then I did it again until he touched the back of my throat. I nearly gagged before I pulled away and did it again, reveling in the way his body tensed and quaked with every stroke.
When his hand clutched the back of my head, his fingers tangling in my wet hair, it just encouraged me. And the way his fingers tugged at my locks, shocking my scalp with little twinges of pain, just excited me. I sucked him hard, fondling him with my hand at the same time. Every time I ran my fingers over his nodes, he sucked in a hiss through his teeth and I didn’t know whether I was doing something right or not until he I felt him go rigid.
But before I could bring him to release, he pulled my hair, tilting my head up. He met my eyes for a brief moment and Icould see his colors had once more shifted hues. Red painted the tops of his crown and the grooves of every contour and ridge decorating his body. It was an intense color and the way his eyes were wide and unblinking made him look feral. Then he threw me onto my back. I wiped the back of my wrist over my lips as he kicked my legs apart and dropped between them, reaching down to notch the head of his cock at my entrance. I looked up at the desperate expression on his face and gasped as he entered me. I was soaked with arousal. So much so that he just slid right into place, stretching me around him in one steady push.
The first time we’d had sex, it was rough, a little painful, jarring, and intense and frankly, I wasn’t too conscious of what was real and what wasn’t. It was amazing, but my head was all over the place. I barely knew what I was doing. This time, I was all there. I knew what was going on and I wanted it and I felt everything so differently. It was all amplified and consuming.
I planted my hands on Vahko’s hips, savoring the way he moved with every thrust. The way he claimed me. He braced his hands on either side of my head, watching me as he rocked himself back and forth. The head of his cock did things to me. It hit me just right every time he drove into me like he’d found a nerve only he could hit. Pleasure rippled through my stomach, more intense every time he plunged forward.
“Vahko,” I panted, a sense of panic tying knots in my core. I’d never felt like I was about to fall into oblivion, but that was how I was feeling. Like gravity had abandoned me and I was weightless. My nails bit into him and he made that sexy snarling sound in his throat as he dropped to his elbows, bringing his mouth close to mine. “Yes,” I chanted, my heels pressing to the backs of his strong thighs. “Oh my god, right there. Harder.”
He thrust into me with more force. He moved faster, muttering things in his language. I wanted to ask what he was saying, but the only word I could form was “yes.” I was lost inrapture, raising my hips to meet every rock of his. He slid his hand between us again, his fingers finding my clit. I sucked in a ragged breath, my legs shaking as he stroked me. Inside, I was a bundle of screaming nerves begging to unravel. On the outside, I was a trembling mess waiting for the waves to break.
“You feel so good, Innifer,” he rasped. “You shouldn’t feel this good.”
“I shouldn’t want you this bad,” I whimpered.
“You want me?”
That made him thrust with even more brutality like his desire was suddenly overcoming him. His fingers worked my clit like an instrument he’d mastered until stars danced at the edges of my vision.
“There?” he panted.
“Uh huh,” was all I could manage.
I sucked in a sharp breath as everything came to a head. I swore I was seeing colors I’d never seen before. My back arched, my voice caught in my throat for a moment until I choked out a cry, a storm of dizzying pleasure crashing through me.
“Tell me you want me,” he purred.
“Yes,” I moaned. “Yes, I want you.”
The fireworks started in my core and traveled in all directions, down every limb straight to my toes and fingers. I could scarcely hear anything outside of my own orgasm, but I could hear Vahko as he came right after me. He buried himself deep, his body stiff as liquid heat filled me. He pressed his lips to my neck and muffled his groans before he melted on top of me, crushing me under his weight.
And I didn’t mind. He supported himself just enough on one elbow so he wasn’t suffocating me, but he was like a shield. My shield. Quivering, I turned my head and kissed his shoulder, savoring the feeling of him being inside me after we were bothspent. The rain was cold, but we were warm, our bodies making their own heat.
36: Innifer
Putting wet clothes back on was a chore, but Vahko and I managed. Of course, as soon as our clothes were back on, I wanted to rip them off again, but I resisted. We really did need to get back and despite knowing Sam was ok, I really wanted to see her for myself. So, hand in hand, we walked to the other entrance Vahko mentioned, through a large training ground with slick, metal floors, and up a flight of stairs that led to the upper levels. There, people were scrambling. I hadn’t seen so many valerians in one place before, but it seemed everyone from the outpost was out and doing something. Men with blasters ran by with their bio helmets on and their suits with glowing veins. I saw women in long dresses walking briskly in all directions, allseeming like they had something to do in the aftermath of the attack.
I tightened my hold on Vahko’s hand, a little on edge seeing all the commotion. After what happened with the freighter, loud noises and shouting people made me a little uneasy, but he squeezed my hand right back and reminded me that this was different and he was there.
Weaving through the crowds, I finally saw a familiar head of blond hair.
“Sam!” I called out.
She whipped her head in my direction, looking me up and down. I was a mess, all wet and sporting some strange stains from the moss and rain. Sam had her arms crossed over herself and opened them when she saw me like she was going to rush in for a hug. Her eyes were raw and puffy as if she’d been crying when she glimpsed mine and Vahko’s conjoined hands. Her brows furrowed and she slouched, pouting.
