“Say you’re my mate. Say you’re mine.”

Passion makes me admit to my feelings. “I’m yours. You’re mine.”

His mouth sucks my clit in rhythmic pulls, and I explode, waves of pleasure coursing through me. “Elex!”

My knees buckle, my legs quivering, but he supports me.

“Perfect, my love,” he growls and effortlessly picks me up, carrying me to the bed.

His tentacles grasp my wrists and my ankles, stretching me wide as he strokes my body again, his mouth taking my nipples. Sensation erupts everywhere—soothing caresses of my arms, my legs, my calves, my ankles.

Achingly empty, I clench and release my sex repeatedly as if I can stave off the desire as he continues to make me whimper for him. I’m dripping with need and in a smooth, continuous motion, he rubs his tentacles in my wetness, over and over, stroking along my lips. I’m about to beg him to fill me when he lifts his head from my breast, and a look of ecstasy roves over his face.

He’s tasting me. Not just my sex…but myemotions.

The look across his face is everything, like he’s the desert and I’m a glass of water. Like he’s a sinner and I’m a goddess. Because I can’t stand that he looks at me with such reverence, I reach down for his slippery cock and squeeze the shaft. When he shudders with pleasure, I demand, “Fill me. Fuck me.”

He snarls as his hips lift, the tentacles still writhing around me, enveloping my thighs, my ankles, one gliding round and round my clit before slapping lightly, and I catch the sight of his monstrous, shiny cock, all purple and swollen hard. The head is large and bulbous and along the shaft are two more great round bulges as big as the head and I know from the sex we had before that I can feel every inch of those giant balls inside my channel. I can feel when they stretch my lips as they plunder in and out when he’s ramming me full up to the hilt.

His cock, hot, hard, and slippery with his natural lubrication, slides against my body, along my slit like a warm iron rod as thick as a forearm, sliding back and forth. His hands lift my ass to rock against him, teasing me and building my need so I’m roughly gliding along his shaft. I can’t help but writhe against his hot flesh, my pussy still clenching because his tentacle still sucks my clit, bringing me frustratingly close to orgasm before it drops off and leaves me hanging, perilously close to coming but not quite pushing me over the edge.

“Elex, please,” I beg. “Make me come.”

“Greedy girl. I just swallowed your orgasm.” The pleased lilt in his voice doesn’t escape my notice. He loves that he can bring me so much pleasure.

He shifts the angle of his hips so the head of his cock is at my entrance and plunders into me. I’m so wet, so swollen; I feel like I grip his huge cock like a glove.

He finds a rhythm, moving in and out of me fast and deep.

Pleasure crashes into me in wave after wave of euphoria, speeding down my veins, rolling through every cell, sparking nerve ending of my being. I continue to chase the spiral, sailing higher, coming down, and jerking upward again as I hear him mutter my name into my ear.

I quiver when warm liquid fills me and he groans, his body convulsing as he comes. His mouth crashes down on mine as he swallows another orgasm.

God, I’ve missed this man.

ChapterSeventeen

ELEX

This fresh, beautiful morning means a whistle in my voice and a skip to my step. I left my beautiful mate exhausted in our bed as soon as I heard the whisperings from the living room.

Last night she collapsed in my arms, sated and exhausted after hours of loving. She was well and truly fucked. She will not forget me anytime soon, even if she tries.

Again.

I gather thekishren, hushing them into silence, and take them over to the dance hall to feed them breakfast without waking Christina. As soon as they finish eating, I walk them to their school where Dori works this morning. Times are much more relaxed now that we moved the school into Eden. Christina and Dori rotate morning and afternoon shifts with each other. Today is not a school day but the two of them voluntarily open for a few hours to allow the parents a break from chasing after their offspring. It is a daycare, I guess.

After dropping them off, I head to Relion’s. We have plans to train the new recruits from Pimeon on how to appear non-threatening to humans. Except Relion is not waiting for me on the porch. Instead, I’m cornered by his mate already sitting there, sipping her coffee, waiting for me with narrowed eyes. Telilah sits on her lap, bundled so only her sweet face shows. Tera sets her mug on a table, far from thekish’sreach.

With a sigh, I join her.

“What’s going on with you and mom?” Tera asks.

“What do you mean?” I ask warily.

“Something is off.”

I shrug. “I’m just here to see if your mate still wishes to head out and round up the newbies with me.”
