Crex: Alien Abduction Romance (Captured By Aliens Book 2)

by A. G. Wilde

  As the waves took the small flower away from her, Piper watched it go in silence.

  “Goodbye, Callie,” she whispered again. “I will always love you.”

  * * *

  Crex was good at preparing the meat. He’d skinned the animals, cut up the meat, and made a fire for her on the inside of the cave.

  As he speared some meat and roasted it, Piper sat and watched him.

  There was still raw meat by the fire on one side, but he’d taken the time to cut much smaller bits and roast them. He placed a bunch of the roasted bits by her and went back to roasting more when she realized he’d only made the fire for her.

  She’d forgotten. He didn’t eat his meat cooked.

  He was only doing it for her.

  The thought made her smile as she bit into the morsel.

  It tasted better than it looked, a little chewy than she was used to, but she was soon devouring multiple pieces.

  “Crex,” she spoke and he glanced over at her. “Have you heard from Yce?”

  “No,” he answered, but she sensed the tension in his voice.

  They hadn’t discussed it, but they were both worried about the others.

  “Why do you think he hasn’t reached out?” She whispered. She didn’t want to consider what might be the most likely reason.

  After all, he’d stayed on the Elysium. And Diana had stayed with him too.

  If he hadn’t survived, it was safe to assume she probably hadn’t either.

  It was something she didn’t want to consider.

  “I don’t know why.” He handed her some more pieces of meat before grasping a raw piece for himself and biting into it.

  They chewed in silence till Crex suddenly spoke.

  “We must begin moving tomorrow. Our best bet is to head to a Muk outpost. The Mukkians will help us send a signal to the Restitution for pickup. It’s our best hope and…” He paused.

  “The Tasqals. Do they know about the outpost?”

  “That’s a possibility.”

  “Will the others be heading to the outpost as well, do you think?”

  “There are three outposts. They will head to the one that’s closest.”

  Piper nodded.

  “How far from here?” She asked.

  Crex glanced at her. “With you and the beast, maybe a month’s travel.”

  A month? Dang.

  Rising, Crex looked outside the cave and lifted a few pieces of meat in his hands before walking outside.

  Curious, Piper followed him.

  The T-Rex was still there, lying on its side.

  Piper swallowed hard.

  It wasn’t going to be easy getting used to having the dinosaur around. Even looking at it now, all she could see was what it did to her sister.

  “Why is it staying with us?”

  Crex answered as he threw the T-Rex some meat, which the thing caught between its jaws easily. “It knows we are on the same side.”

  “Uh-huh…”

  “These animals…they are plentiful on your planet?”

  “No. They went extinct a long, long time ago. Before humans were around.”

  “That explains its confusion.”

  “Confusion?” Piper’s brows rose. “I don’t get how you communicate with it.”

  A slight smile smoothed his lips as he turned to her.

  “It seems humans have lost their connection with nature,” he mused. “Or maybe it is clouded.”

  “Well…”

  Well, what? What should she say? It wasn’t exactly far from the truth.

  “What is your planet like?”

  “It’s…” Piper paused. “It has massive forests. Massive oceans. Massive mountains.”

  She found herself staring into the setting suns as images of the Earth she once knew, the one she belonged to, flashed before her eyes.

  If given the chance to return there again, could she even take it?

  How would she go back to a regular life after this?

  After all that’s happened, her life had been changed forever.

  “It sounds beautiful,” he murmured.

  “It is,” she replied. “It was.”

  Chapter Twenty-Seven

  “Come,” Crex stepped close. “We must go in before the night falls. Tomorrow, we trek.”

  Piper nodded and preceded him into the cave as he put the barricade in place.

  “M’Hul will warn us if danger comes close,” she heard him say.

  “M’Hul?”

  Crex finished barricading them in and turned to her in the dimness. “The beast from your planet.”

  “You named the T-Rex?” Her brows rose in disbelief.

  “Is that not something you do on your planet?”

  “Yes, but…” She stared at him then shrugged after a while. M’Hul it was then.

  She would not be friends with M’Hul but she could at least tolerate him.

  As she settled against the bedding, she looked down at herself.

  Her shirt was covered in blood again. This time from the sand cat she’d killed.

  Fuck. She’d killed a sand cat.

  Her eyes widened as she really thought about what had happened earlier that day.

  “Shit, did you see me running?”

  Crex was still by the cave mouth, now crouching as he watched her.

  “You are fast,” he said.

  “More than fast, I was Usain freakin’ Bolt. I’ve never run that fast before and I—” She took a breath. “—I took down a fucking sand cat!” She beamed at him. “It was…”

  “Exhilarating. The speed. The kill,” Crex stood and walked toward her slowly.

  Piper paused, the smile slowly dying. “Yes. It was.”

  “It’s the jagazen,” he said. “Your body is not the same as the other humans anymore.”

  Piper blinked, then nodded. “I realize.” Her gaze drifted to the barricade. “I mean. I was mad enough to go for a T-Rex. I wounded it.” She beamed again, pleased with the fact.

  A small smile passed over his face, and again she was struck by how handsome he was.

  In the dim light, his eyes were beginning to light up as well.

  They were hypnotizing.

  Glancing down at the shirt she was wearing, she hooked her finger in the hem and pulled it over her head.

  “I must clean this before we leave tomorrow,” she said, mostly to herself, but when he didn’t respond, she raised her gaze to his.

  He was looking at her intently, or rather, her now exposed breasts.

  She watched him swallow hard as he looked at her, then when he finally met her eyes, she saw it in his gaze as clear as day.

  Need.

  Resting back against the bedding, she held his gaze in silence.

  It was getting cold, but the heat of his gaze was enough to not make her wrap her arms around herself.

  He was looking at her as if he was holding back. As if all she’d seen from him before was just a sliver of what was really there.

  Something made her want to know more. She wanted to experience what he was reining in.

  “There’s something you aren’t telling me,” she whispered and when he didn’t respond, she took that as affirmation.

  In silence, his gaze was intense. So intense, it was as if it was lighting a fire inside her, one that ignited right in the center of her groin.

  Mesmerized, she watched as he closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, almost as if he could smell her arousal.

  And then he moved, slowly crawling toward her, as he dipped his head at her feet, inhaling as he followed her leg up to her center. There, he stopped, his nose pressed into her through the fabric of the pants as he inhaled her.

  It. Was. Fucking. Erotic.

  Making her folds grow ever wetter, the thought of him there without the clothes as a barrier made her close her eyes and shiver in excitement.

  Crex crawled over her then, his gaze still intense, as he raised his face over hers.

  “Y
ou,” he whispered.

  “You,” she repeated.

  Gaze falling to her mouth, Crex brushed his lips over hers. Opening her mouth to him, Piper moaned as he obliged her with a bruising kiss.

  He was kissing her so hard, her head was pressed back into the bedding as his tongue assaulted her mouth. At the same time, his hands were busy loosening the pants, which she kicked off as soon as they were no longer fastened at her waist.

  His were next. Piper slipped her hands into the waist of his pants as he wriggled out of them, her palms flat against his warm skin.

  She could smell him too. A thick musk that called her hands to his cock as she grasped him with both fists.

  “Mmm,” she moaned into his mouth, remembering the feel of him inside her.

  This. This that she was feeling. It wasn’t just anything. It wasn’t just a fling. It wasn’t just a crush.

  She wanted him. Not only today or tomorrow.

  She wanted to be with him for the foreseeable future.

  The realization hit her like a brick and she broke the kiss, breathing hard as she stared up into his violet luminescent eyes.

  She’d grown so used to him being by her side through all this. How was she going to let him go when all his crew regrouped? How was she to carry on life without him?

  She didn’t want to.

  He was her ally, the closest thing she had to a friend, and he was her…lover?

  “Piper?” He whispered.

  As she raised her head and crushed her mouth against his again, this time it was her kissing him with abandon.

  This. This was something.

  It was something she didn’t want to get rid of.

  When Crex finally broke away and began nibbling her ear, she closed her eyes and allowed herself to enjoy the feel of his warm mouth.

  She didn’t need to think about anything else right now.

  All she needed to think about was him.

  He was nibbling down her neck as his hands found her breasts.

  “These,” he breathed. “Like flowers,” he said. “And sweet.” He took a nipple into his mouth as he said the last words and his warm tongue sent tingles down her spine.

  “Crex,” she breathed, as her back arched to him, only falling back to the bedding when his mouth continued moving down the center of her ribcage to her navel. Then lower. Lower. Till his nose was embedded deep in her dark curls.

  He stopped and she felt his chest move as he inhaled deeply.

  “You smell so good,” he whispered. “So, so intoxicating.” His fingers found her folds and Piper inhaled deeply, his touch sending more sparks down her spine.

  “I’ve wanted to do this for so long,” he whispered. “Since we were in that cell on the Isclit ship.”

  That was news to her, but she didn’t have time to deliberate on it as his tongue flattened against her wetness.

  Inhaling deeply, her hands dug into his hair as she grasped the dark strands.

  A deep growl echoed in his throat and vibrated into his whole body from that first taste. And then he was licking her, his tongue flattened as it dipped from her perineum to the top of her clit.

  Her eyes rolled back into her head and her body shuddered as he did it again, lapping up her juices as he growled against her.

  He had a palm over each breast as he gripped them fiercely, not enough for it to hurt, but enough for her to feel the power in his arms as he kneaded them, holding her there as his mouth played at her core.

  Then his tongue dived inside her and she couldn’t take it anymore. Her mouth opened in a scream as she shouted his name, gripping his scalp tighter as his tongue went deep inside her, thrusting, curling, making her so damn wet.

  And the more juices that flowed only made him more excited as he lapped against her.

  As his tongue withdrew and flicked over her folds once more, she shuddered as it reached her clit and Crex paused.

  Flicking his tongue over the little bud again, Piper shuddered once more.

  Another growl erupted from him as he took her clit into his mouth, sucking on it as he played with it in his mouth with his tongue.

  “Crex!” Piper shook beneath him. She was going to orgasm if he didn’t stop and she wanted to tell him that. She wanted to feel him inside her before she came. She had never ever come twice in a session and she wanted to feel her pussy pulsing over his thickness when it happened.

  But his growls drowned out her soft, breathless voice as he sucked her, his tongue making circular movements all around her clit before he took the bud back into his mouth.

  When she thought she couldn’t take it anymore, his fingers found her again and two of them slid inside her.

  That was the tipping point.

  Piper gripped the bedding and bucked against him as her orgasm rocked through her.

  She was shaking uncontrollably when he finally raised his head.

  When their eyes met again, she saw it there.

  That intensity of whatever he was holding back.

  “Show me,” she whispered. “Show me what you’re afraid to tell me.”

  Crex blinked as her words hit him.

  With another growl, he grabbed her by the hips, flipping her over onto her hands and knees.

  The movement was so primal, so daring, it surprised her. She could feel another wave of arousal waking within her immediately, her ass tilted in the air, as she waited, her own wetness dripping down her legs.

  “Crex,” she breathed, as he squeezed her buttocks in his palms.

  His hardness was throbbing just underneath her. She could feel it touch her swollen labia each time it jerked and with every jerk, there was a promise of pleasure.

  Sweet, sweet pleasure.

  She wanted him inside her.

  This alien. This man. This person who had turned out to be her lifeline without her even realizing it.

  She wanted it.

  No.

  Hell.

  She wanted him.

  She felt him position himself at her entrance, and with one more squeeze of her buttocks, he slid the head past her lips.

  She felt her eyelids flutter as her eyes rolled back in her head.

  And then he was thrusting into her slowly, allowing her to get used to his width…his length…his fucking ridges!

  They were rubbing against her G-spot and it felt as if her entire vagina was vibrating, sending spasms down her clit and deep within her.

  As her buttocks landed flat against him, he leaned over her back and nibbled her shoulder.

  “Fuck!” She screamed as another orgasm crashed through her.

  As her pussy clenched around him, Crex grasped her ass again and began thrusting, his groans matching her own moans and echoing in the cave so much so she had the passing thought that the T-Rex, M’Hul, was bound to hear them.

  But there wasn’t time to think about that right now as Crex picked up the pace, slamming into her so hard her entire body jolted forward with each thrust.

  She was screaming so loudly; she bit down into the bedding, thrusting her ass higher to meet him as her body surrendered to his assault.

  And just when she was sure she wouldn’t be able to take anymore, another orgasm crashed through her.

  No longer able to stay upright, she would have fallen against the bedding if Crex wasn’t holding her against him.

  Panting, she whispered his name over and over again till she felt him stiffen behind her and his warmth flood her insides.

  He leaned over her then, burying his face into the back of her neck as he breathed hard against her.

  When they finally collapsed against the bedding, Crex pulled her toward him and held her there.

  He was still inside her, and she didn’t mind. She wanted him there for as long as possible.

  They panted in silence, finally cooling down as the suns exited the sky.

  Now, in pitch darkness, she reveled in his warmth.

  “I don’t want to,” he finally said.

&nbs
p; “Don’t want to what?”

  He didn’t answer for a few seconds.

  “I don’t want to say goodbye,” he said. “I don’t want to say goodbye to you.”

  Piper swallowed hard.

  She knew what he meant.

  She felt the same.

  “Do we have to?”

  He seemed surprised by her response and turned her head so he could see her face.

  “You won’t go to the refugee base with your kind?”

  She thought about it for a second, but the answer was easy.

  “No.”

  “Why?”

  “I don’t want to say goodbye either,” she whispered.

  He studied her in silence before she saw him smile. And this time, it wasn’t a hint of a smile. It was a real smile. The first real smile she’d seen on his face ever.

  “You’re smiling,” she whispered and immediately his smile disappeared, as if he didn’t realize it was something he was doing.

  Piper chuckled. “You’re a strange one, you know that? Not like I imagined aliens to be like at all.”

  His eyebrows rose a little. “What did you imagine aliens to be like?”

  “More like the pieces of shit—”

  “The Isclits?”

  “Yes, them.” Piper rolled her eyes. “And the Tasqals. Nasty. Dirty. And ugly.”

  “Most beings are not like that,” Crex mused as he traced her nipple absentmindedly. “Most beings are quite beautiful. Kyris’ planet is thought to have the most beautiful beings.”

  “Is that the insanely attractive member of your group?”

  Crex’s eyes narrowed and he growled softly. “Insanely attractive?”

  Piper chuckled again. So, there was some jealousy there. “Never mind that. I only have eyes for one alien,” she whispered, tilting her head just enough to kiss him softly.

  “You will stay?” He whispered.

  “I don’t want to go anywhere without you.” It felt good saying it.

  It felt right.

  She felt him exhale a massive breath.

  “I’ve bonded to you,” he whispered.

  “Yes, you said. But I don’t know what that means.”

  Taking her chin in his hand, he brought his forehead to hers.

  “It means I want you. I want you to be mine. And only mine.”

  Weeks ago, she’d have laughed at something like that.
