Science Fiction Romance: Biomechanical Hearts (Space Sci-Fi Love Triangle) (New Adult Paranormal Fantasy)

by Olivia Myers

  It took several long, throbbing seconds for them to make their way through the fog of desire drenching her brain.

  “Do you want to?”

  She nodded before she realized she understood the question. It didn’t matter. Her answer was the same once she did, anyway.

  “Yes,” she replied. “Yes, I really, really want to.”

  “Good.”

  Jessa couldn’t have agreed more. Mack used his free hand — and damn, she was in danger of melting into a useless puddle if she thought too much about what his NOT free hand was doing — to push himself into a half sitting position. He swung one foot down onto the floor, spreading his thighs and stretching the blue cotton of his boxers tight.

  “Take off your shorts,” she rasped.

  Gray eyes flared as they stared into her face.

  “Take off yours,” he said. “All your clothes. I want to see your body. I was trying to picture it but…”

  He shook his head. Jessa whimpered, her fingers already reaching for the hem of her tank top.

  “You were thinking about me?” she asked.

  Heat pulsed through her veins. Her clit throbbed at the thought of Mack jerking off while thinking of her.

  He nodded, dark hair falling over his furrowed forehead, and bit his lip.

  “I didn’t mean to, but you…” His fingers tightened around his swollen shaft. He gasped. “You are fucking sexy.”

  The rough words in Mack’s deep voice were enough to make her whole body ache, but there was also that tinge of naïveté in his tone that she enjoyed. He was using those words for the first time, she knew, and something about it made her heart twist.

  “So are you,” she assured him, peeling her shirt over her head and tossing it onto her bunk. “So fucking sexy, Mack.”

  His mouth — that sinful, full-lipped mouth — curled into a smile she’d never seen before. Then, his eyes dropped to her breasts and grew wide.

  “Apollo!”

  Mack’s hand dropped from his cock and reached for her. He caught her elbow across the narrow space and drew her closer until his warm breath ghosted across the stiff, aching peaks of her nipples.

  Jessa’s hands slid over his shoulders, up the column of his throat and into the heavy black silk of his hair. She stared down into his eyes as she pulled his head to her chest.

  He moved instinctively, his mouth opening to suck her tender flesh. His hands, so big and strong, caressed the curve of her waist and the ridges of her ribs before cupping her breasts and kneading them.

  She moaned his name, arching her back and pressing him closer.

  Mack suckled her tentatively at first, but when her fingers tightened in his hair, his touch grew firmer. His eyes drifted shut, his lashes fanning against his hollowed cheeks as he drew on her nipple fiercely, pulling a cry from her throat.

  He released her breast briefly, murmuring her name against the heated skin of the valley between as he dropped a kiss there before taking the other nipple into his mouth.

  It was as his lips pressed against her sternum that Jessa realized she had yet to kiss him.

  “Mack.” She tugged gently at his head, gasping as his teeth scraped deliciously over the sensitive bud of her nipple. “Mack!”

  She pulled his hair harder, tilting his head back as he reluctantly relinquished his mouthful of flesh. Jessa didn’t give him a moment to complain. She bent to press her mouth to his.

  Her cy groaned at the first touch of her lips and wrapped his arms around her, holding her close.

  Jessa nipped his full lower lip before licking him. Mack’s growl rumbled in his chest. She smiled against his mouth. As their tongues rubbed and flicked, Jessa’s knees quaked. There had been many kisses throughout her twenty-eight years. Some were more skilled than Mack’s, but none were more passionate.

  He lifted her off her feet and rolled her beneath him in a graceful move she wasn’t sure a human could ever pull off. She would have cried out in shock, but his tongue was in her mouth and he swallowed her sounds.

  “Jessa,” he groaned as he dragged his mouth down the line of her jaw to nip at her throat. “I didn’t know I could feel these things!”

  Her hands roamed over his back, feeling the shifting muscles beneath all that hot, smooth skin.

  “I didn’t either!” She laughed, her breath catching in her lungs as Mack’s strong hands tore away her cotton shorts.

  He tossed away the scraps of fabric without lifting his mouth from her skin. He seemed determined to lick, kiss, and nibble every inch of her. Jessa wouldn’t complain. It felt incredible.

  Mack’s hands joined his mouth, stroking and caressing her body. Every nerve ending tingled, thrilling to his touch.

  Her pulse pounding, she watched him slide down her body through half-closed eyes. Mack pushed her thighs wide apart, spreading her. She gasped as his hot breath tickled her sensitive folds.

  “Mack!”

  He rubbed his lips against her inner thigh, his eyes devouring her swollen, wet flesh. None of her previous lovers had looked at her so intently. There was a faint spark of embarrassment, but it burned away beneath the blaze of pleasure racing beneath her skin.

  Mack lifted a hand and slowly dragged a finger up her slit, collecting moisture. She squirmed under the touch. His gaze rose to hers and he smiled.

  “You are very aroused.”

  Again, she heard that shadow of wonder in his tone. She reached down and ran her fingers through his silky hair. “Yes.”

  His finger returned, probing her lips, gently stroking over the swollen button of her clit. Jessa’s hips jerked upward. She gasped.

  “Does that feel very, very good?”

  She would have laughed if she had the breath, but it was all stuck in her lungs and throat as Mack’s thick finger explored her folds and pushed deep into the tight, slick tunnel of her sex.

  “Yes,” she moaned. “Mack, yes!”

  “What about this?”

  His mouth joined his fingers. Jessa pressed upward, against the hot, slick tongue lapping at her. Her hand clenched in his hair. She threw her head back onto the pillow and cried out to the ceiling.

  “Good, yes! So, so fucking good!”

  Mack chuckled and the vibration rumbled through her belly, twisting the coil of pleasure inside her tighter. Jessa bucked and writhed, sweat coating her skin. Her hair, still damp from her shower, tangled and clung to her face. She shoved it away and reached down to grasp more of Mack’s hair, to pull him closer to her.

  His tongue swirled and flickered, stroked and pushed. She rode it and his fingers, undulating and pressing against them.

  It had been years since she’d been touched like this. Or never, she thought, because none of them had ever been Mack. None of them had ever had her back in a firefight, and played chess with her at night, and stroked her body like a maestro.

  Her skin felt tight all over, the nerves sizzling and jumping while the pleasure swelled and swelled in her belly.

  Mack pressed deeper, two fingers now, pumping in and out of her with a wet squelch. She dug her heels into the bed and strained toward him, angling her hips. When Mack’s lips wrapped around the nub of her clit and sucked, she shattered.

  Jessa called out his name, her throat rasping, as pleasure coursed through her. She shuddered and twitched on the sweat-damp sheets, her brain sending pulse after pulse of sensation along every nerve ending.

  Between her slick thighs, Mack slowed his pace, lapping gently at her quivering flesh. Her inner muscles continued to ripple around his intruding digits, the sensation decadent and delicious.

  “Come here,” she commanded, using her grip on his hair to tug him upward.

  He didn’t have to obey. They both knew he could easily overpower her, if he wanted. A fresh twist of desire curled in her belly at the thought of all his powerful muscle. He might be intimidating to everyone else, but Jessa knew Mack would never, ever hurt her.

  His mouth was hot, wet, and tasted of her when i
t pressed against hers. She sucked the slick, musky flavor from his lips and tongue and she ran her hands down the slope of his back.

  “You taste delicious, but I was unable to categorize your precise flavor,” he said against her lips.

  Jessa laughed and palmed his ass. She’d been staring at it for months, fantasizing, and now she had it in her hands and it was every bit as glorious as she’d imagined. She squeezed.

  “Oh? Do you need to?”

  She knew the answer to that and smiled a moment later when he said, “Of course. I’ll need to taste you again, though.”

  “Yeah, you will. But there’s something else we need to do first.”

  Jessa licked a line up his throat, tasting his skin. Though she knew it was dermaplas enhanced, it didn’t taste fake. He tasted of salt, and soap, and musk. She nibbled the muscle there while sliding her hands between them to finally grip the thick, throbbing length of his erection.

  Mack grunted and bucked into her hands, his own fingers digging into her shoulders.

  “Jessa!”

  She stared up into his flushed face, heart thumping at the pleasure and shock twisting his gorgeous features. Her own arousal began building again at the sight of his, and the feel of his hard cock sliding through her palm.

  Jessa caressed careful fingers around his sack, fondling the soft, tight flesh. Mack buried his face against her throat, moaning as he thrust his cock through the squeezing circle of her fingers.

  She could feel his mouth moving against her skin, hear the muffled murmurs, but not make out his words until he lifted his head to kiss her shoulder.

  “Jessa,” he chanted in rhythm with each flex of his hips. “Jessa, Jessa, Jessa!”

  The warm weight of his shuddering body against hers, the hushed sound of his voice, it filled her with such a sense of euphoria. Her head spun with it. She shifted beneath him, spreading her legs wider, bending her knees.

  Her lips found his temple. She pressed a kiss against the damp hair there.

  “Mack, baby.”

  Never in her life had she used an endearment, but like everything else she’d done since she’d walked out of the shower to find her cy jerking off, she went with her instincts. Releasing his testicles, she tugged his hip, guiding him up between her thighs.

  His hands stroked her shoulders and hair rhythmically as she pulled him into place on top of her.

  When the wide, bulbous head of his cock brushed the still-sensitive folds of her pussy, they both gasped. Mack finally seemed to realize what she was doing. He lifted his head and stared into her face.

  They were only inches apart. She could feel his breath puff against her lips. He kissed her again, devouring her mouth thoroughly before pulling back.

  “Are you going to put my cock inside you, Jessa?”

  His deep bass voice rumbled through her, making her shiver. Or maybe that was the words he spoke. The question. There was her Mack. She nodded.

  “Yes, baby. Yes. We’re going to put your cock inside me now.”

  He grinned, showing teeth and dimples in his cheeks she hadn’t even known he had until that moment. Jessa lifted her head, kissing the grin off his mouth and seating the head of his cock at her entrance.

  When his tongue slid between her lips, Jessa wrapped her legs around his waist and rolled her hips, taking him in.

  Mack made a noise in the back of his throat, half shout, half groan, as his cock sank into her. Jessa gasped at the sweet, burning stretch. He was bigger than she was used to, both longer and thicker, but it was so, so good.

  For a long, breathless moment, they both lay still, soaking in the sensation of their joined flesh.

  Then, Mack began to move.

  He drew out of her with excruciating, exquisite slowness. Jessa could swear she felt each inch, each vein, as he moved.

  Warm satin lips brushed hers just before he plunged back in. The strength of his thrust drove the air from her lungs as pleasure swelled within her. Jessa clung to him, her thigh muscles aching, her nails digging into his skin until she was sure they’d leave welts. At least he healed fast.

  Mack didn’t seem to care either, rearing when she scratched at him and pistoning deeper. He took her mouth in kiss after kiss, ravaging her lips.

  The power of his body, those steel-synth muscles, was evident in every rolling thrust of his hips and thighs, every flex of the firm buttocks against Jessa’s calves. That power was made even more evident as he rolled suddenly, flipping them so quickly Jessa’s already spinning head couldn’t follow the movement.

  One moment, she was pressed into the bunk, Mack’s glorious weight on top of her, enjoying the pounding of her life, and the next she was riding him, the slightly rough cotton sheets abrading her knees.

  Mack’s hands urged her on, gripping her ass as she rose and fell, circling her hips on every upward push and rocking them back and forth on every downward lunge. She ground her clit against the base of his shaft, sending sharp sparks of pleasure up her spine.

  Hot silver eyes slid from her face down to the bouncing mounds of her breasts. Jessa reached back, wrapped her fingers around his wrists, and tugged them up to her chest. He caught on quickly, kneading the soft, heavy flesh and rolling the hard tips between his talented fingers.

  Their bodies slid together, hot and slick, as Jessa rode Mack.

  He met her thrust for thrust, the muscles of his belly rippling with the effort to bury his cock deep within her tight, wet passage. Jessa braced herself on his sculpted chest, working her hips faster. Her muscles were feeling the strain, but the burgeoning bubble of pleasure beneath her skin was all-encompassing.

  “You feel so good inside me,” Jessa told Mack, remembering his earlier questions. “Very, very — oh!”

  Her second orgasm took her by surprise, slamming into her and rocketing through her body. Her fingernails cut into Mack’s skin as her hands spasmed. Her inner muscles clamped down hard on the thick, throbbing length within her.

  Jessa threw back her head and moaned, loud, low, and long. Her toes curled. It felt as if the pleasure started there and rose up through her and out her mouth, pouring out, going on and on.

  She bucked wildly on top of Mack and probably would have fallen if not for the grip of his hands on her body.

  Through her lashes, she saw his face, wracked with the same pleasure she was feeling.

  “Jessa!” His hips punched upward, burying every inch of his rock hard flesh within her. Jessa felt that thick length throb and pulse, and then the hot spill of his seed inside her.

  With a cry, she collapsed against him.

  Mack’s arms wrapped around her, holding her to his heaving chest. Jessa rested there, heedless of the sweat sticking them together, enjoying the feel of post-coital bliss. Every inch of her felt good. Even her hair seemed to tingle with the remnants of her orgasms.

  Her mouth was curved in what was no doubt a goofy grin, but she didn’t care. No one but Mack could see it, and she didn’t mind that at all. His heart thumped loudly beneath her ear, slowing but not yet back to normal.

  “God was right,” he said suddenly. “That was like nothing I ever could have imagined.”

  Jessa took a deep breath so she could laugh.

  “You asked Godfrey about…? No, never mind. Of course you did.”

  She shook her head. There was no other way he could have gotten the requisite parts. The tech was, pun definitely intended, a cocky bastard. Jessa shoved any thoughts of the annoying genius from her mind and idly stroked a hand down Mack’s side.

  “So, I’m going to need to take another shower.”

  Mack’s lips pressed briefly against her damp, tangled hair.

  “Yes.”

  She lifted her head, meeting gray eyes still hazy with his own pleasure. She imagined all that sculpted muscle beneath the water and smiled.

  “During the ridiculous amount of research I am quite sure you did, did you encounter the definition of a blow job?”

  Mack swallo
wed, his Adam’s apple bobbing in his throat. Between her legs, Jessa felt his softening cock twitch. It was no surprise when he nodded.

  She pulled gently away from him and climbed to her feet, extending a hand. He didn’t need her help to rise, but he took it anyway.

  “Let’s go,” Jessa said. “Research is all well and good, but I’m sure you can appreciate the merits of hands — and mouth — on demonstrations.”

  His deep, husky laugh rolled through their rooms, making her smile as she led him into the shower stall.

  Mack frowned at the readings on the display in front of him. So far, there was no sign of the pirate’s ship. After the attack on the Oubliette and the attempt on Lyra, Cantra Corp had wanted to hit the thieves back instead of just waiting for the next incursion.

  It was Jessa who had come up with the plan. His brilliant, sexy partner.

  Unable to keep his eyes from drifting to her, he took in the golden glow of her hair, the soft line of her jaw, the curl of her ear. She was intent on her own readings, forehead furrowed.

  He wanted to kiss her frown away.

  Godfrey had not warned him how powerful the feelings that came with sexual contact would be. Since the first moment Mack had touched Jessa’s silky, honey-colored skin, the second she’d kissed him, he’d been changed.

  It was as if the press of her lips against his had rewritten his core programming.

  He couldn’t get enough of touching her, kissing her, being inside her. Jessa seemed just as affected, her hands seeking his flesh just as often as he sought hers. Whenever they weren’t on shift, they were naked, pressed together.

  The night before, Mack had held her in his arms and kissed every single inch of her body. He already wanted to do it all over again.

  “Got anything over there?”

  Jessa’s voice, calmly professional, cut through his wandering thoughts. Mack switched his attention back to his display, thankful his BCI had continued monitoring while he daydreamed about the feel of Jessa’s sweet lips wrapping around his cock and sucking him deep.

  “Nothing.”

  Beside him, Jessa cursed. “Where the fuck are they?”
