“Blood mates are our normal tradition.You and I can engage in that later.”He grinned.“For now, I would like to see your home.”
“Oh.Right.It’s covered with paint.”
“That’s fine.It plays into one of the options for your second.”
“Oh.I need to put something on.”
He laughed.“I thought you would demand a shower.”
Her fire washed over them both.All the sweat and most of the emissions were gone.
She laughed.“Forgot I could do that, huh?”
Kremoryn’s smile was slow.“Yes, I did.Can you keep the fire in with another partner?”
“Yeah.There are things I can do to get around the destructive factor.”
He paused, “Like what?”
“Condoms.My body reacts really aggressively to attempts to breed me without my authorization.”She fluttered her lashes at him.“My mother gave me a singular education.”
She eased away from him and stood up, swaying a bit.He got out of bed and held her.“Are you all right?”
“Yup.Fine.Just feel...peculiar.”
He smiled and moved behind her to wrap his arms around her.“You will get used to it.”
She leaned back against him as shadows moved over her and formed a very daringly cut gown.
“Interesting choice.”
“I like your curves.A lot.”His hands dropped to her hips.
“So do I.”She smiled.“They fill out the bras and keep the skirts from falling off.”
Kremoryn laughed and said, “A meal in the physical world?”
“Yup.Incidentally, the child will have to be conceived there.”
“Yes.I am aware.”
“Good.Some guys think it works anywhere.Time is too large a thing to mess with.”She looked at him.“So, if you want to get dressed, we can go out and have dinner.I don’t care how relaxed a restaurant is.”She waved at his torso and groin.“That needs to be hidden for sanity.”
“You flatter me.”
She shook her head at the sight of the abs, the smooth muscles on either side of his hip arrowing toward his groin, the erection that was now rising as she watched.She looked away.He walked around her and smirked.“That was flattering.”
She sighed.“Right.Get dressed, Your Majesty.I want to get something in my mouth, and I am not getting on my knees today.I prefer to pace myself.”
He huffed, and a lovely suit wrapped around him, forming trousers, a shirt, a vest, and a suit jacket that made him look like he was going to take over a corporation.
He offered her his arm.“Shall we continue our negotiations?”
“Sure.Where are we going?”
He grinned and slid a pair of dark lenses over his eyes.“I have a hankering for tacos.”
She was still laughing when they stepped out of the shadows and got into line.
