"Not finished with you yet," he growled against her neck, hips already moving. "Need more. Need to come inside you."
He set a relentless pace, driving into her with controlled power. Each thrust sent aftershocks of pleasure through her already sensitized body. She wrapped her legs around his waist.
"Perfect," he panted, bracing himself above her, the cords standing out in his powerful neck. "So tight.Mine."
She watched his face as he chased his release… the intensity in his strange blue-gold eyes, the flush spreading across his cheekbones, the way his jaw clenched with each thrust. Beautiful, primal, something beyond entirely human. And utterly hers.
"Come for me," she urged, tightening her inner muscles around him. "I need to feel you."
A groan tore from his throat, his rhythm faltering. "Mira?—"
"I want you," she whispered, pulling him closer. "Give it to me."
With a final, powerful thrust, he buried himself to the hilt, and his whole body tensed. He came with a growl, cock jerking and pulsing deep inside her. The feel of him bathing her inner walls with his hot seed triggered another climax and she cried out. His arms gave out, weight collapsing onto her, face buried in her neck as he shuddered through the aftershocks.
For long moments, they lay tangled together. Sweat cooled on their skin as their breathing gradually slowed. He stayed inside her, still hard, but neither of them pulled away.
"Okay?" he finally murmured against her throat.
She nodded, unable to find words for the tangle of emotions inside her. Satisfaction, yes, but something deeper too. A sense of rightness, of belonging, that frightened her with its intensity.
He moved, finally slipping free of her body. Instead of pulling away, he gathered her against his side, tucking her head under his chin.
"Still need to monitor my vitals?" he asked, amusement coloring his voice.
She huffed a laugh against his chest. "Pretty sure we just broke every monitoring protocol Jex established."
"It was worth it," he declared, kissing the top of her head.
"Mmm," she agreed, already feeling sleep tugging at her. "But if you collapse again after this, I'm telling Covak why."
His chest rumbled with laughter beneath her cheek. "Deal."

Light from passingstars filtered through the viewport, casting a pale glow across Davis's quarters. He hadn't slept. Not really. His body hummed with lingering energy despite hours of exertion that should have exhausted him. Whatever changes were happening to him, increased stamina was definitely one benefit.
He propped himself up on one elbow, gaze locked on Mira's sleeping form beside him. She lay sprawled on her stomach, the sheet draped low across her ass, revealing the smooth expanse of her back. Her blonde hair spilled across his pillow in tangled waves, and his cock hardened at the memory of wrapping the silky strands around his fist last night.
She'd finally passed out about an hour ago, her body surrendering to exhaustion after he'd taken her for the fourth—or was it fifth?—time. He'd lost count somewhere between bending her over the edge of the bed and the moment she'd straddled him again, riding his cock like a pro.
He ran his fingertips lightly down the curve of her back, admiring the sight of her in his bed. She was his. All his.
Murmuring something in her sleep, she shifted slightly. The movement dislodged the sheet further, exposing the curve of her ass. His cock throbbed painfully, already rock hard and ready to go again.
Leaning down, he pressed his lips to her hip in a gentle kiss. An apology and a claim all at once. She stirred at the contact, murmuring his name as she rolled onto her back, her legs falling open slightly.
The invitation was too tempting to resist. He moved between her thighs, leaning over to kiss her nipples before trailing kisses down her stomach. The scent of her arousal, mixed with the lingering evidence of their night together, made his cock throb against the sheets. He groaned as he reached the apex of her thighs, inhaling deeply before running his tongue through her folds.
Fuck, she tasted incredible. He lapped at her slowly, savoring the taste as her body responded even in sleep, her pussy growing wetter with each stroke of his tongue.
He circled her clit, flicking and teasing it with his tongue. Her breathing changed, becoming shallower as she hovered between sleep and wakefulness. He pushed her thighs wider, exposing all of her to his hungry gaze. His cock throbbed painfully, demanding attention. He shifted, reaching down to palm himself, wrapping his fingers around his thick shaft while his mouth continued working her pussy.
Her eyes flew open, and she arched, a soft moan tearing from her throat as he worked her clit with his tongue and fucked her with his fingers. The sound went straight to his cock.
"Davis," she gasped, one hand tangling in his hair, pulling him harder against her.
He doubled his efforts, sucking her clit between his lips while his tongue flicked rapidly across the sensitive bud. His fingers continued their teasing exploration, and his hand moved faster on his cock.
