Dani took his hands and guided them to her breasts. The contact was electric, his energy pouring wildly into her, heightening every sensation. She gasped as pleasure coursed through her body, more intense than anything she'd ever felt with a human lover.
Solar watched her reactions with fascination, learning quickly what made her breath catch, what drew soft sounds from her throat. He was a fast study, adjusting pressure and movement based on her responses.
"You are exquisite," he murmured, bending to replace his hands with his mouth.
Dani cried out at the first touch of his lips on her breast. The heat was extraordinary, pleasure spiraling through her body in waves. She tangled her fingers in the light where his hair would be, surprised to find it had substance, like touching warm silk that moved against her skin.
"Bedroom," she managed between gasps. "Down the hall."
Solar lifted her with effortless strength, cradling her against his glowing form. The entire length of his body radiated heat against hers, and tiny particles began to lift from his skin as if he floated freely. He drifted with her into the darkness of her bedroom. In the unlit room, he was the only source of illumination, casting golden light across her simple furnishings.
His body regained its form and he laid her on the bed with surprising gentleness, standing back to look at her with an expression of wonder. Dani took the opportunity to remove her remaining clothes, the cool air a stark contrast to the heat emanating from Solar's form.
"You're still wearing too much," she said, nodding to the lower portion of the pants and skin-suit that clung to his hips and legs.
Solar hesitated. "Full exposure may be overwhelming."
"I'll take my chances."
With a fluid motion, Solar removed his pants. The bulge she'd noticed hung like a dead weight between his thighs as part of the suit, not part of his true form. He then took off the rest of the membrane. He became fully revealed, masculine and powerful, and his energy concentrated and intensified in ways that left no doubt about his desire for her.
Dani's eyes widened. The flat energy between his legs began to reshape, mimicking that of a well-endowed human male.
Solar moved onto the bed beside her, careful not to press his full weight against her. "Your body temperature is elevated," he observed, trailing a finger down her throat to the valley between her breasts. "Your pulse is rapid. These are signs of arousal in humans, correct?"
"Very correct," Dani breathed. "And what are the signs of arousal for your species?"
Solar's light pulsed visibly, brightening and dimming in a rhythm she found hypnotic. "Increased energy output. Heightened thermal radiation. Disruption of normal light patterns." His voice deepened further. "All of which I am experiencing at dangerous levels."
"Dangerous how?" she asked, running her hands over his shoulders, reveling in the strange texture of his skin, like touching living electricity.
"I could burn you," he admitted. "If I lose control."
Dani smiled up at him. "Then don't lose control. I trust you."
Something shifted in his expression at her words. Trust. Such a simple human concept, yet it seemed to affect him.
His kiss was careful at first, measured, but as Dani responded with increasing passion, his restraint began to slip. The temperature between them rose, his light brightening until the entire room was bathed in golden radiance.
His hands explored her body with growing confidence, learning the terrain of her curves and hollows. When his fingers finally slipped between her thighs, finding her wet and ready, the energy that flowed from his touch sent her arching off the bed with a cry of shocked pleasure.
"Did I hurt you?" Solar asked immediately, withdrawing his hand.
"Hell, no," Dani gasped. "Please don't stop."
He continued his exploration, watching her reactions with intense focus. Each touch sent pulses of energy through her nervous system, building pleasure in ways she'd never experienced. It was as if he could direct sensation itself, concentrating it where she needed it most.
When she was trembling on the edge, desperate and begging for completion, she guided him over her. "I want you," she whispered. "All of you."
Solar positioned himself between her thighs, his expression a mixture of desire and concern. "I will try to maintain control."
His energy flowed into her rather than thrust, expanding to fill her to the brink. The press of his body drew a gasp from them both. His energy flowed into her as their bodies joined. Tiny sparks exploded over his skin like fireworks. They rained down on her, tingling wherever they met flesh. His body dissolved into pure energy, barely keeping shape.
"You pull at my essence," he said, his voice filled with wonder. "This is not painful for you?"
"It's incredible," Dani assured him, wrapping her legs around his waist to draw him deeper. Her legs sank into his energy field before finding a solid core to hold on to. Everything pulsed and tingled.
Solar began to ripple within her, each undulating wave of sexual energy sending heat and pleasure through her body. The room grew brighter still, his control slipping as passion overtook his restraint. Where their skin met, Dani glowed with a sympathetic light, as if his energy was flowing through her, being absorbed and reflected back.
