DangerouslyHis (17 page)

Heat built within her as his cock repeatedly hit the back of
her throat. Her mouth savored him. She sucked vigorously, trying to take as
much as she could. His moans caused her pussy to throb and swell. His fingers
tangled in her hair, pressing and pulling, setting her pace.

She went deeper, so deep she gagged. She caught her breath
and did it again. And again. Taking him in more and more.

He pulled back on her hair, raising her head.

“Am I doing it wrong?” she asked, wiping her mouth. “I can
try harder.” She reached out for him.

“Damn,” he moaned.

He grabbed her head forcefully and she opened her mouth with
a groan, letting him slip in as far as he could go. If she could, she would
swallow him whole. But she let him set the pace. She dug her nails into his ass
as he pumped into her.

Her pussy slickened with need, throbbing in time with the hard
cock in her mouth. She ached for him. She pressed her knees together to ease
her need and that just caused a little spark to erupt. Whimpering, she pulled
her cheeks in and sucked harder and faster.

“Open your legs,” he commanded.

She opened them, grinding against the mattress. It felt
good, but she needed something else.

“Rub your pussy.”

I can’t.

“Do it for me. It’ll make you feel better.”

She let go of his butt and ran a hand up her leg. Her
stomach quivered as she got closer to the aching. She held her breath and used
her middle finger to part her folds. She dipped inside her wetness.

Justin held her cheeks and pumped his hips, fucking her
mouth. “That’s it.”

Her finger breached her tight opening. She inhaled deeply,
choking on a mouthful of saliva.

He pulled out, letting her catch her breath. “Relax, we can
take our time.”

“I don’t want to take my time. There’s a pressure building
inside me.” She squirmed on her finger. “I feel like I’m going to burst.”

“You need to come.”

Her finger wriggled farther inside. “Yes!”

She slid her mouth over his cock again. She pumped her head
up and down his length while her finger explored her pussy.

“Feel for a hard ridge…find your
miltori
.”

She probed, trying to find anything that resembled what he
described. Her fingertip felt the soft, wet wall of her sheath. Then…

Her body convulsed as she grazed against a hard ridge. Her
eyes rolled back in her head as she pressed it again.

Justin groaned and pumped furiously. “That’s it. You’re
going to come. Rub that spot.”

On his command, she rubbed and rubbed, faster and faster,
until finally every nerve down her spine erupted.

Saia convulsed and fell to the side. He held back his own
need. Getting on the bed, he pulled her up until she lay beside him. She tried
to help but her legs shook from the force of her orgasm.

His cock strained, engorged with need.

She opened her legs and pulled him closer. “I need you.”

“I thought you wanted me to lick you,” he ran a finger over
her dripping sheath, “here?”

She writhed and closed her eyes. “Later.”

He moved to position himself between her legs. She opened
them wider, welcoming him. His cock seemed to have a mind of its own. It aimed
for her pussy. He pushed forward, resting his head against the opening.

Her fingers dug into his ass. She tried to pull him closer
still.

“Baby, it’s going to hurt a little at first. If you want me
to stop, just say the word.”

“Now…
please
,” she begged.

He bit down on his lip and plunged. She cried out and arched
against him. A guttural sound left his mouth as her sheath squeezed him
tightly.

“Fuck!” He clenched his teeth, trying to stop the need to
erupt.

“That hurt,” she whispered.

He kissed her collarbone and trailed up her neck to her
lips. “I know. I’m sorry.” Her pussy clenched around him. His cock throbbed and
twitched. “I’m about to embarrass myself.”

“Why?”

“I’m about to come. I’ve never come this fast before,” he
strained to say.

“Maybe we should…” She twirled her hips in a circular
motion.

He groaned and grabbed the sheet. “That’s not helping.”

She gyrated up and down. “What about now?”

“I thought you said you were in pain?” he ground out.

She didn’t stop. “I was. But now it feels good.” She twirled
her hips again.

“Shit.” He plunged.

She threw her head back and moaned. “Yes!”

He was going to come and he was going to come hard, but he
stroked the inside of her walls. Her pussy, slick with her juices, massaged
him. He pulled a nipple into his mouth and sucked. She wrapped her legs around
his waist, holding him in a vise grip.

Her nails ran across his scalp when he tightened his lips
around her nipple. Moaning, she flailed her head from side to side. He strained
with each thrust, trying to hold back.

Her pussy quivered. Warm liquid dripped from her.

She convulsed around him but he didn’t stop. He grabbed her
thighs and pressed them back. Now that she’d come her body seemed to relax
slightly, but still her tightness pulled and sucked at him. The wetness that
flowed liberally from her pussy helped him glide in and out. She gripped his
arms, her hands kneading his muscles.

He slowly pumped into her as she nipped and licked his
nipple. “I could stay like this forever.”

He let go of her legs and settled on top of her. “So could
I.”

He began moving again, a little faster than before, taking
her arms and positioning them over her head. He held on to them and gazed down
at her in wonder. He thought he’d never see the day.

He was making love.

This wasn’t just another warm body beneath him. This was the
female he loved and would spend the rest of his days with.

“I think I’m going to come again,” she moaned. Her body
tensed.

He’d held out before, but he didn’t think he could do it
again.

Her pussy contracted. Her legs squeezed his waist. “Yes!”
She threw her head back and erupted around him again.

Every nerve in his body fired. His orgasm came fast and
hard. “Ahh!”

He came with a scream as her walls spasmed around his cock.
Holding her tight, he thrust up, spilling his seed deep inside her body.

“Justin, yes!” she cried out.

He fell to his side, taking Saia with him. His breaths came
out heavy and hard. His heart beat painfully against the wall of his chest.
Lying together with her legs still around his waist, he never wanted to let her
go.

She stroked his hair slowly, and his breathing started to
slow as he drifted off to sleep.

* * * * *

Saia sat between his legs, her arms resting on his thighs.
She patiently waited as he combed through her hair, parting it down the middle.

“What are you doing again?”

“I’m putting your hair in French braids. Don’t worry. It’s
going to look pretty. I used to braid my sister’s hair all the time.”

He separated the sides and tied one with a piece of string
he’d found. He urged her to tip her head back, grabbed a small lock of hair
and, starting from her forehead, began to braid it along her scalp.

She tried to flinch away.

“Stay still.”

“I can’t help it. You’re tugging my hair.”

“You’re just tender-headed. I’ll try to be gentler. I have
to get the braid tight or it’ll unravel. But if you keep moving it’ll be
crooked, and I’ll have to take it down and start again.”

She stilled and he finished his work, taking his time to
braid all the way to her ends. At the bottom, he secured his work with a second
string and let the braid fall to her waist.

She retrieved the braid and inspected it. “Are you done?”

“No, I have to do the other side.” He began to comb out the rest
of her hair.

“And you said your sister liked these French braids?”

He twisted strands of hair together, making a perfect braid
down her scalp. “Yeah, she needed to keep them in braids for softball games, a
sport she used to play. She wanted me to do them because she thought our
grandmother made them crooked and they would come undone in the middle of her
games.”

“Were you close to her? I mean, before she left home.”

“We were pretty close.”

He finished the braid and tied it with the last piece of
string.

“Justin and Justina. I bet you two were a handful.”

He chuckled. “It was JB and Tina, and yeah, we gave our
grandmother a run for her money.”

“Are you the oldest?”

He shook his head. “No, she was born three minutes before
me. She never let me forget it either.”

How many times had she said, “I’m the oldest!”? Too many
times for him to count. Most times she was shouting it while holding him down
and punching him.

“It must hurt to be separated from a twin.”

He looked away. It hurt more than he could ever put into
words.

Although he hadn’t seen her since she’d left home, there had
been the constant calls. They’d talked almost every day until the invasion. By
the time he could pull himself away from watching the mayhem on television to
dial her number, all the lines were busy or down.

When he didn’t respond, she continued, “On Holis, the twins
share a special bond. They are able to share feelings and thoughts. When they
are separated from each other for long periods of time, they often die unless
they can make a link with another, which is very rare.”

He pulled her back to sit against him and wrapped his arms
around hers. “Human twins have a special bond too, nothing like that though.
She’s still alive.” He squeezed Saia tighter. “Wouldn’t I feel it if she were
dead?”

Saia snuggled into his arms. “I would think so. You just
have to keep hoping she is alive and well.”

If a little hope was all it took, he would have never been
captured by the Loconuist in the first place.

No, hope didn’t serve a purpose in this situation.

“Human females haven’t fared so well. A lot of them were
sold to brothels or to males as mates.”

She turned to look at him. “You will find her one day.”

“
We
will find her one day,” he corrected.

She brightened. “You would take me with you?”

“As soon as we can get off this rock, we’ll search for her,
me and you.”

She smiled and settled back into his arms. “It’ll be nice to
see the galaxy. Taio and Kiehle tell me about it all the time. They bring me
trinkets from different planets, but that’s not like seeing them myself.”

“We won’t leave any planet unturned,” he declared.

She stiffened slightly in his grasp.

“What’s wrong?”

“You know that my brother and father will not let me get
far. They’ll be looking for me.”

“Saia, listen, we’ll do everything we can to remain
undetected. I have experience with living on the run. We can get to Ryan. He’ll
hide us on
The Vengeance II
.”

“I don’t know about asking your friend for help. He doesn’t
even know me. Why would he risk his life to hide me?”

“Because I love you.”

She looked over her shoulder. “Will that be enough?”

“Saia, you aren’t just some female that I’m on the run with.
You’re the love of my life, my mate.”

He watched the way her eyes softened and all the worry
seemed to disappear. “As you are mine.”

If this wasn’t love, he didn’t know what else was. Here he
was, holding the most beautiful woman in the universe, and she loved him just
as much as he loved her.

I don’t want this feeling to ever go away.

“Saia Xochis, will you bond with me?”

She giggled. “I already agreed.” She threw up an arm.
“Remember? The reason we’re here?”

“Right now. What do we have to do? Do we need a witness? Can
Ship serve as one? Should I call him?”

She pulled away from him. “Are you serious? You want to bond
right now?”

“Yes, unless we can’t. What are the rules?”

“The two parties have to be in agreement. If it is forced,
the Ancients won’t bless the union.”

“But you didn’t want to bond with Ranuit Pi. Your father was
going to make you.”

She shook her head. “I didn’t want to bond with him, but I
did agree to the union.”

He rolled to stand and reached for her hand, lifting her to
her feet. “Two willing parties—check. Witnesses?”

She shook her head. “Not needed. A bond is a bond.”

“But won’t we need someone to witness, to tell your father
that we actually went through with it? Someone to verify the bond is legit?”

“It doesn’t work that way. I can’t explain it. Bonding is a
spiritual connection between two people. It’s not something that someone would
lie about. The individuals are connected in more ways than one.”

“Let’s get this ceremony started.”

She turned to scan Jess’ living room. “Here?”

He followed her gaze with his. “What’s wrong with this room?
Do you want to do it in the bedroom?”

She held up her hands. “You can say no, but hear me out
first.”

He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her flush
against him. “I’m not waiting any longer.”

“When I was little, I always dreamed of having a bonding
ceremony outside in a garden. I dreamt of how romantic it would be. I gave up
that fantasy when I found out I was bonding with Ranuit Pi, but now—”

He placed a finger over her lips. “Let’s go get married.”

“But the garden…”

“Tonight is your lucky night. Jess has a small one in the
back.”

* * * * *

She sat on her knees facing Justin. They were both naked,
their palms pressed together. Her body thrummed as they spoke the sacred words.

My heart is your heart.

My body is your body.

My soul is your soul.

From this moment on,

We live as one.

Before does not matter.

Before is not relevant.

Before there were two,

Now we are one.

As they chanted the words over and over, the air around them
sparked with electricity. Every hair on her body seemed to stand on end. Every
nerve in her skin thrived.

Her knees brushed lightly against the ground then she was
hovering above the grass, moving closer to Justin until they pressed against
each other. Their bodies connected. They seemed to melt together. Their spirits
blended.

She heard the words they spoke, so fast, so loud, but it was
distant. She felt her lips moving but she tuned the words out. All that
mattered was that she be with Justin, touching him…loving him.

A bright light flickered then exploded. She fell to the
ground. A million voices spoke in her head. All telling her the same thing in
different dialects.

Take care of his soul and he will take care of yours.
