He placed a hand over hers. The throttle shook, but she held tight. She turned and smiled at him.
She loves me.
At that moment, he realized he’d done the right thing. He’d wanted her so badly that he never once stopped to think about the repercussions. And there would be many.
Yes, her mother and Ship were on their side, but the thought of Taio catching him and cutting off his head should’ve made him think twice.
But somehow, staring into her eyes made the fear of dismemberment go away. She is worth it. “Escaping feels good, doesn’t it?”
Her eyes began to water again. “Thank you.”
“Thank your mom and Ship for making this possible. I’m just the man who’s crazy enough to follow through on the plan.”
She looked out the cockpit window. “I’ll be able to see her again, won’t I?”
“You’ll see her again.” He would make certain of it. He didn’t know how, but he had to try for her. “You can relax and let me take the throttle.”
She let go and turned to the window.
He steered the transporter in the direction of Jess and Rasha’s house, making sure to stay low to avoid detection. As they made their way over Singha, she pressed her face closer to the window, peering down into the water.
She sighed. “Beautiful.”
One day he was going to take her to all the loveliest places he’d ever been. He would take her to visit Jori and Yeyet. Yeyet’s species lived on a small vegetation planet. Her people reminded him of characters straight out of a fairy tale. Her skin color was a dark brown that blended in with the tree bark of her world, and she had long, wavy green hair that mimicked hanging vines rustled by the wind. He gazed at Saia and smiled. She would get a kick out of meeting them.
The grumble of the engine pulled his thoughts away.
She looked to him. “What’s the matter?”
“We’re flying so low. It’s hard on the engines to maintain this speed at such a low altitude.”
She inhaled sharply. “Are we going to crash?”
He chuckled. “Not likely. We’re almost to Jess’ house, we’ll make it.”
With one hand he eased off the throttle and with the other, he flicked a switch that would help stabilize the pressure in the engines. He initiated the engine cooling system and opened the vent. The small cabin filled with heat, thickening the air.
The engines stopped grumbling. “I think that did it.” He breathed a sigh of relief.
He pulled back on the throttle again, leveling out the transporter and veering the craft to the left. He alternated the vents between the open and closed positions. To leave them open continuously would fry him and Saia, but to leave them closed would overheat the engines. When he thought the transporter couldn’t handle the altitude any longer, he brought it down lower, until finally he skimmed the tops of the trees that surrounded the ocean.
He’d been to the house enough times to know they were close. Jess had visited it at least once a week to work on some small detail or another and he’d been her companion more times than he’d wanted.
Finally he spotted the blackened area in the dirt where he had landed numerous times before. Instead of landing there, he drove past it and settled down about a mile away from the house and next to a cluster of trees.
As the vessel landed, she wiped the tears from her cheeks. He gently squeezed her hand. “This will work.”
Saia nodded. “I trust you.”
He caught his breath. She trusted him. He couldn’t let her down.
The door opened and immediately, refreshing night air replaced the almost unbearably hot and sticky air of the transporter.
Screeching and howling came from the trees, unseen animals alert to their arrival. Saia grabbed his arm and held on. She looked around wildly, as if expecting an animal to jump inside the cockpit and attack her.
He chuckled. “You’re safe.” He opened the secure channel that Ship had given him access too and typed an encrypted message.
She twisted her body to peek out the door. “Is there anything out there that would kill us?”
He shrugged. “Probably.”
Her eyes flicked to him in a panic. “What!”
He laughed again. “I should have clarified. I’m sure there are plenty of animals out there that could kill us, but we have blasters. We’re safe. Besides, you should know more about the animals here than I do.”
“I hardly ever leave Taio’s palace.” As creatures howled loudly, she peered back out the door. “How long do we have to stay here?”
He released his harness and did the same to hers. “Only until Ship can find us a way off Sonis.”
A high-pitched scream rolled through the air.
“Do…do you think we should stay in here while we wait?” she asked nervously.
JB stood and grabbed the bags stashed behind his seat. “Naw. I just sent Ship a secure message. I don’t know how long it’ll take him to respond.” He reached for her hand.
She sank lower in her seat. “Sh-shouldn’t we wait for a response?”
He kneeled next to her and ran a hand across her cheek. “Honey, he can contact us in the house. Where it’s safer.”
A chaotic skirmish broke out. The trees teemed with hoots, hollers and screams.
Her body shook.
He patted the blaster on his hip. “Blaster, remember?”
“Give me one.”
He rose and reached into his bag for the extra blaster. She thrust her hand out, waiting impatiently. “Do you even know how to use one of these?”
She shook her head. “No, but I’m a fast learner.”
He disengaged the security lock and handed it to her. “Here.” Then rethinking what he’d done, giving a weapon to someone who’d never used one before, he added, “Don’t shoot unless I tell you too. But most importantly, don’t shoot me.”
“Right,” she said, inspecting her new weapon.
Right.
Knowing he wouldn’t be able to take the blaster away from her now, even if he tried, he jumped from the transporter and held out a hand. She took it and jumped out next to him.
JB looked toward the trees and at the leaves scattered about and on the ground surrounding them. “I’m going to hide the transporter.” He went to the tree line and gathered branches, then scooped up handfuls of leaves and other debris from the ground, tossed everything over the transporter.
Saia peered around, aiming the blaster into the trees.
“Thanks for having my back.”
She nodded. “I’m going to shoot anything I see.”
Luckily none of the animals ventured out from the confines of the trees. Otherwise they would have been fried by Saia.
After the transporter was fully covered and he was convinced it wouldn’t be visible from the sky, he led the way to Jess and Rasha’s house.
Saia didn’t complain as she followed him through the woods. She kept her blaster aimed at the trees, but better aimed at them than at him, he figured. When they arrived, he opened the door and let her enter first. As far as he could tell, the house was fully decorated, but Jess seemed to think there was so much more to do to make it homey.
It had everything Jess and Saia needed—food, shower and a bed.
“Rasha and Jess are leaving for their honeymoon in a few days. If by chance they try to stop here before, Ship has agreed to deter them.”
“Ship wouldn’t be able to keep me away if this were my home.”
“You wouldn’t mind living in something like this?”
She lowered her head, hiding her face. “In the palace, my every move is tracked. My father constantly fears that I will cause embarrassment to him or his family name.”
He moved her hair off her shoulder. “If you had the chance, where would you want to settle down?”
She looked up in thought. “I don’t think I would settle down. Not right away, anyway.”
“What would you do?”
“I would
travel the galaxy. No, I would travel all the galaxies! I would visit as many worlds as I could.” She looked at him. “Where would you go?”
He cradled her chin between his thumb and finger. “I would follow you.”
She sighed as he captured her lips with his.
This wasn’t the first time he’d kissed her, but it felt as if it was. His tongue parted her lips, claiming entry into her mouth. Hesitantly, she met him. Their tongues danced slowly at first, playing and teasing.
She pressed closer to his hard body, needing to feel him against her. Her chest heaved. There just wasn’t enough air in the room. She pulled his hips to meet hers, immediately feeling the hard outline of his cock.
His breath hitched. His hand fisted in her hair as his tongue became needier. Her body hummed with anticipation, making her forget about everything else. Their escape. King Xochis. Nothing mattered but them—this.
He pulled his mouth away and wrapped his arms around her. “We should probably stop.”
She ran her hands around his hips and gripped the nice curvature of his ass. “Why?”
She didn’t want to stop. She wanted him. All of him.
He groaned and rocked her gently. “Because I have to make an honest woman out of you first.”
She nipped at his chin and squeezed his butt. “I’m not a woman.”
“You’re a Drazlonian princess. I have to do right by you,” he said, sounding as if he were trying to convince himself.
A wicked thought crossed her mind. “You want to do me right?”
“Argh! I’m trying to be good and you’re not making this easy.”
She licked his ear and wiggled against him. “I want you to be good.”
His cock jumped against her. “I’ll be better than good,” he said in a throaty whisper.
“In my room…you were good, especially when you did that thing with your tongue.”
“I did a lot of things with my tongue.” He groaned again and let his head drop to her shoulder. “If I was smart, I would push you away and go take a cold shower.”
“Can you do that again?” she asked.
“Aww,” he moaned.
She maneuvered her hand between their bodies, finding the outline of his cock, grazing her hand over it. “Please.”
He pushed away. “I tried.” He pulled at her dress. His hands grasped the hem and worked it up her body. She wiggled it over her head and tossed it on the ground before removing her shoes.
His gaze raked down the length of her naked body and then slowly back up. She bit her lower lip, waiting for him to make the next move.
Hungrily, he watched her. “No one ever said I was smart.”
She yelped as he scooped her up into his arms. “Will you teach me how to use my mouth on you?”
He stumbled as he carried her down the hallway, banging his arm on the wall. “You’re going to be the death of me.”
“Is that a yes?” she asked as they crossed the threshold to the bedroom.
He placed her gently on the soft surface of the expansive bed. “My wish is your command.”
He worked to unfasten the ties of his pants. His cock bounced free. It was glorious. She reached out for it, and he inhaled sharply as her fingers skimmed the ridge of his head. “It’s so hard, but…” Her hand wrapped around him. “So soft.” She licked her lips. “I want to taste it.” She looked up to him. “Tell me how.”
“You—” The word croaked out. He cleared his throat. “You can kiss it first.”
There was nothing else she’d rather do.
She licked her lips and leaned forward, brushing them lightly across his head. It was even soft on her lips. A deep, throaty moan sounded from his chest as she placed another kiss over the ridge. His body shuddered, making her feel confident she was doing it right. She held him in her hand and placed kisses down the length of his cock, following the distended vein to the base.
“Just like that,” he groaned, letting his head fall forward.
She stroked him slowly and placed feathery kisses on his hanging sac.
His hands fisted in her hair. “Damn,” he whispered.
She let his sac rest on her mouth and chin as she kissed and licked it. Hairs tickled her nose. With each kiss, her mouth opened wider, until she finally pulled one side of him inside.
He lifted on his toes. “Shit.”
She looked up to see him biting his lip and staring at her. Her hand stroked the length of his cock, her tongue played with him.
The muscles in his legs flexed. “This is—”
She sucked and tugged harder. His breath caught. She released him, only to pull the other side into her mouth.
“Ahh.”
She let his sac fall and it brushed against her chin. She gave it another light kiss before running her tongue from the base and following his vein back to the tip of his head.
Clear fluid coated his slit. “What is this?”
“Pre-cum,” he bit out.
“Should I taste it?”
“Saia…”
Yes. She used her tongue to scoop up the salty liquid.
He groaned and jerked his hips forward. His cocked pressed past her lips. “Suck it,” he commanded. He used a hand to guide her down on his cock. Then he grasped her hand, making her squeeze tighter around his base. He pulled tight as they stroked him together. Humming with pleasure, she closed her eyes, letting him fill her. She enjoyed how he felt in her mouth and on her tongue.
“Look at me.”
She did as told. She caught sight of his lustful eyes watching her. She tightened her lips, working them down his length. He mouth opened and closed, but no words came out. Spit dripped over her lips and down her chin to land on her breast. Each drop sent sensual pleasure down her spine.
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 yo
ur 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.
Chapter Seventeen
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.
