Devlin's Darling

by Pearl Tate

  Rachel pushes Jenny off her and turns to walk toward the crumbling building. Walking at first but picking up speed, she sprints towards the building. Where the hell does she think she’s going?

  We all take off after her. Selas catches up first and wraps his arms around her. He turns her towards Jenny, who’s just catching up. She hugs her again. This time Rachel accepts the comfort, clinging to her tightly as Jenny murmurs, “It’s okay, it’s okay.”

  “But it’s not okay!” Rachel’s wail has us all flinching. She isn’t wrong. “Amari’s in there! Is he even alive?” She breaks down into sobs as she sinks to the ground, pulling Jenny with her.

  “He’s alive.” Selas’ confident statement has her turning towards him hopefully. She tries to dry her tears, wiping her face and sniffing a few times.

  “Have you heard from him? Does he have some kind of communication device on him?”

  “He does, but that isn’t why I know.” Selas leans down and gently pulls her arm around in front of her face. “See these? He’s alive. And if he wasn’t blown up and killed from the explosion instantly, then he’s in there. Let’s give him a few minutes.”

  We turn to stare at the building again as Selas barks orders at the surrounding males. He’s right. Only time will tell.

  CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

  - Jenny

  Selas convinces us not to go back to Devlin’s home this evening. We explained why we left the night before. While we were out, he had the mattresses and linens all swapped with another place. That was super considerate. I want nothing more than to crawl into bed with him because it’s been such a crazy day.

  Selas seems to be accommodating if it makes sense and can be accomplished. He isn’t big on feelings though. It was hard for him to relate with Rachel’s breakdown. Devlin and I stayed out on the road for as long as was practical. There were teams of men running around, cleaning up—and yes, looking for the guys that took Rachel.

  Tomorrow, I'll work with Rachel and try to draw up the men by her descriptions. Like a sketch artist the police use. Maybe I’ve found a new calling?

  It made more sense once he came back with Amari from outside the dome. He must have known where to search for him if he didn’t make it out of the building. I don’t understand his reasoning for not telling Rachel that though. Instead of trying to deal with her, he put a sedative in her food so she would relax! What a control freak!

  I will talk to Devlin about making sure he keeps an eye on our meals. Everyone around here seems to use pharmaceuticals to control others. It starts right with Canesta to get an erection and poor Rachel will need to detox after all this. She said she was drugged by her abductors too.

  When she passed out so fast, I was relieved. Selas carried her into the bedroom and then explained why he didn’t wake her up to get there. I was flabbergasted! I didn’t say anything because there wasn’t anything nice to say.

  When Selas left, I thought he was taking off to track down the culprits that took her. That was the last thing we were talking about.

  When Amari came back with Selas, Devlin and I breathed a sigh of relief. While he cleaned up, Selas explained that he was actually holding the bomb when it went off! That’s why his skin is so discolored. The heat and pressure changed the top layers. But holy cow! He’s the alien version of Luke Cage.

  Even more bizarre, Selas thinks all the mated males have this capability. That when their bodies are stressed, they become impenetrable. I can’t even begin to understand it!

  My eyes are drooping as I lean against Devlin where we’re sitting. Shifting, he pulls me into his arms and stands. “It’s past time to take my mate to bed. We’ll speak more in the morning. I don’t mind helping but I’d like to make sure Jenny’s settled first.”

  “Of course. Yes.” Selas stands. Amari’s already headed to bed in the other room.

  I’m barely awake but the closer we get to our place, the more I perk up. Devlin may think I need to go to sleep, but I plan to make certain he realizes I’m ready for more. He got to lick me yesterday evening and all day I’ve been envisioning is doing the same to him.

  I wonder if he likes that? Are there guys who don’t? I’m guessing probably not.

  When he lowers me to the bed, I smile and look up at him. “Are you tired?” He’s surprised by my question. But as I rise to my knees and inspect how to open his fancy Discovery flight suite, his eyes light up.

  Helping me, he peels it back, exposing that he isn’t wearing underwear as it falls away. Wow! His body is incredible. All velvety caramel skin over defined muscles.

  His cock is waving in my face along with the longer hair he has around it. I gently grasp the base and it dances around my hand. It’s as happy to see me as he is.

  He lets out a strangled moan as I lean forward and take my first tentative lick. Swirling my tongue around the crown, I gather up a nice amount of pre-cum.

  Mm. Sweet.

  I take another lick, surprised by how yummy it is. My eyes shift up to his when I realize he’s watching. A louder moan slips from him as I take a good inch into my mouth, sucking to draw out more.

  After swallowing, I edge my lips down slowly, just a little at a time. I’m trying to hold his gaze, but his cock is so large I have to tilt it towards me, angling my head to pull him into my throat.

  “Oh, my sweet, sweet mate.” Devlin’s voice is choked as his hands settle lightly on each side of my face. His fingertips flutter over my cheekbones and I moan in reply.

  The cock in my hand jumps, so I do it again before slowly drawing off his length. I’m rewarded with more of his sweet flavor, dragging across my tongue. I had no idea this would be so delicious.

  Continuing to take him slowly in and out of my mouth, I lower him a little more each time. I love this. Everything about it. His moans. His taste. The way he looks at me.

  It dawns on me I love him. I’m committed to him and there isn’t anything more fulfilling than this relationship with him. It’s perfect. He’s perfect.

  Drawing my tongue up his length as I pull back quickly, I expose his now wet length to us both. Breathing lightly across him, I whisper. “I love you, Devlin.”

  His eyes lock with mine as understanding sinks in through his haze of pleasure. Grinning, I take his length back into my mouth, increasing the speed and rhythm. Any words he planned to say are wiped out in the strangled cry he utters.

  I don’t want him saying it back just because I’ve said it to him. Realistically, these things take time and I’d rather he didn’t tell me the first time while I’m giving him a blowjob.

  He’s so hard and tastes so good, I lose myself quickly in the pleasure of drawing him in and out of my mouth. I could get addicted to this.

  Without warning, he steps away, and I lean towards him. The only thing keeping me from falling off the bed is his firm grip on my shoulders. He’s panting heavily.

  “Wait… not like this.” Ah, I agree. As much as I look forward to making him come in my mouth, I’ve been waiting all day to have him inside me again.

  There were times during the day when I wondered if my memory of sex with him was over-inflated? Was it really that good? Will it ever be that good again? I smile realizing I’m about to find out.

  He reaches down to help me pull off my shirt and skirt. I’d worn my jean skirt again with a new shirt and at this moment, I’m regretting it.

  Popping the latch on my bra, I fling it to the side, totally naked in front of him. Has it really only been a day? I already feel so comfortable with him.

  “Scoot up and get on your hands and knees.” Devlin smiles wickedly, and it takes my breath away. Doing as he instructs, I settle into the middle of the big bed before looking over at him expectantly.

  His erection bobs and bounces as his knees slide up next to me. Everything about him is so large and impressive. Thinking back to the pleasure from last night, I peer up at him and swallow hard.

  He crouches over me. One of his hands slide under my hips to
lift them up to full height before he spreads his legs outside of mine. His body lowers down, and I savor his warm skin pressed against my back. Inhaling, I relax into his wonderful scent.

  “I’ve always wanted to try this. Is this okay?” His mouth brushes my ear. It tickles and I shiver in response. I’m so turned on, it’s hard to process his words. “I’ll be gentle.”

  I realize my slow response has made him hesitate. Turning my head, I peer into his incredible eyes. “I’ve always wanted to try this too.” Wiggling my butt against his cock, I push back against him. “If you go slow like last night, I’m sure it will be wonderful.” The urge to kiss him is strong. He moves back, sitting up and taking me with him until I’m leaning back against him. I’m nearly in his lap. “Kiss me.”

  I don’t have to urge him any more. One of his hands flattens on my stomach, almost covering my entire belly. Sucking in air as his hand lowers down between my slightly parted thighs. His fingers tease my clit, rubbing and making me moan.

  His lips descend on my slightly open mouth. His tongue swiping mine before slowly entwining. I moan into his mouth while his other hand cups my breast while his fingertips trace the line of my sex. It’s sensation overload as my excitement and breathing shoots off the charts.

  His teasing fingers at my core, come close to entering me. Pushing back against his body, I angle my hips, urging him to push inside. Devlin growls into my mouth before breaking off the kiss.

  “I’m going to lose control soon.” His breathing is harsh as our gaze’s lock. His rock-hard erection is rubbing up against me. Right next to where his fingers are still tracing the seam of my opening. Growling again, he whispers raspily, “Am I doing this right for you? The way you like?”

  I nod, still in a daze of lust.

  CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

  - Jenny

  “You are so beautiful.” That snaps me to the present.

  “So are you.” His body is the epitome of perfection, with his proportioned, muscular frame.

  He snorts before responding. “I’m not beautiful.” His indignant tone lets me know he’s never been told that before.

  “You are to me.” I smile, twitching under his slow fingers still stroking me in gentle circles around my clit.

  “I want to be deep inside you so much it hurts.” His expression is pained. My poor man.

  I bite my lip to avoid laughing. “Then what are you waiting for?” Dropping forward onto my hands, I turn and give him a sexy look over my shoulder. I feel like a bit foolish until his eyes light up as I spread my legs a little further apart and arch my back. “Will this work?”

  He doesn’t answer, just drapes his body over mine in the next heartbeat. I feel caged and protected inside his arms. “I’ll be gentle.” His words float over my senses, but I already knew that.

  “Okay. Just go slow to give me time to adjust to you. I trust you.”

  As he reaches between us, I notice the sensation of the tip of his cock, circling and teasing in my slick folds. Closing my eyes, I concentrate, jumping when he brushes my swollen clit.

  Moaning, I press back as soon as I detect him arranged against my entrance. I’m wet and ready for him. My desire is making me crazy, and he growls deep at me as I push even harder with impatience.

  His chest against my back, carries his growling moan as he starts to squeeze into me. His thick cock feels just as wonderful as the memory of our first time together. As he breaches me, my body seems to resist his broad tip, not wanting to admit something that size. Another moan comes from us both as he pushes inside more.

  I can’t help my loud sign of satisfaction in response as my body stretches to fit him. It’s taken care of the empty ache. But he freezes, withdrawing a bit and I’m about to complain when he thrusts forward again. Delving deeper into me, he groans again.

  “Uh, Jenny. It’s so good. Too good.” He’s frozen again.

  Twisting my head, I open my eyes to check on him. He has a pained expression on his face. “Are you alright?”

  He bites his lip before looking at me. “I don’t want to lose control and force my way into you so hard and deep that you scream. You’re so tight at this angle. I’m worried about tearing you if I’m too rough. I want you hard and fast though.”

  Stunned by his honesty, I have to admit it’s a real turn on. “Is that what you want to do?”

  “Mm.” He is gripping my hips hard.

  “Sit back for a minute.”

  His body tenses. “Why?”

  “I have an idea.”

  Cursing something, I don’t understand, he withdraws totally from me. I straighten up when he settles onto his legs. His hands have moved from my hips to his thighs. If his fists indicate his mood, he’s frustrated.

  Easing backwards, I curl my fingers around his cock. Groaning, he closes his eyes and his huge frame quivers. It amazes me I have this much control with such a light touch. Shifting closer, I position my hips over his cock with my bent legs still between his. I’m nearly sitting on his lap.

  His eyes pop open to snap to mine as I lower my hips until the tip of his dick presses against my opening again. Wiggling, I slide him into my slickness with less resistance. He still feels huge. It’s snug but as I settle onto him, just as it becomes painful, pleasure seeps in.

  Rising up, I lower myself. I keep doing it, each time pressing down, Devlin’s cock fills me more. Soft noises of please rumble from him. I’m having a hard time watching him as the pleasure of our bodies coming together takes over.

  I moan, moving against him a little faster. I’m adjusting to him. It isn’t long until I completely sit on his lap, taking all of him inside me. The sensation is fantastic. With him buried there, it’s like he’s a part of me and I love that connected feeling I’m experiencing.

  Every rock-hard inch of him is inside me. Caressing all my super sensitive nerves.

  “Jenny,” he breathes.

  I experience a moment of shock when Devlin suddenly moves. Push both of us forward, he positions me on my hands and knees again. I’m under him and he takes control by thrusting into me faster.

  Moaning every time his hips hit my butt, I enjoy the ride. He’s incredible, driving into me and raw bliss blooms with each thrust. His hair flutter across my head, cheeks, and shoulders, sending tingles down my spine.

  Devlin lifts a hand from the bed, wrapping it firmly around my waist, locking me in place. Then he seems to let go of any control he had left.

  Hammering inside me, he rocks against me with powerful strokes. Tearing moans from us both, his cock seems to grow larger. My body tenses and I scream his name. Heat tears through me as I climax. I’m sure I can feel him getting thicker and harder inside me until the pressure makes me come again.

  His body behind me tenses as he bows over me. A sound I’ve never heard before fills the room as he explodes. I’m still coming myself as he stills completely. We’re both breathing heavily.

  The pressure inside me eases but I can still detect his cock quiver deep in me. Little tremors tease me as we both seem to sag forward.

  “Did I hurt you?” He’s panting over me and I giggle as I crumple more.

  “You absolutely didn’t hurt me. That was incredible.”

  He laughs too as he drops his weight, forcing my body lower until I’m pinned flat to my stomach. His cock is still buried deep inside me with his chest and hips pressing against my backside. Using his legs resting outside of mine, he braces his arms and upper chest over me.

  “That was great sex.” I open my eyes and turn my head enough to see him as he brushes a gentle kiss onto my cheek. I blink up at him. “I think you’re bigger than you were yesterday. Everywhere.”

  His expression is neutral as he gives a curt nod. “You feel so tight now, it’s almost painful. But in a very pleasurable way.” I wiggle my butt and freeze as he groans. “Selas said Amari and I would go through a change today after having our mates threatened. It appears it wasn’t only my height that was affected.”
<
br />   I smirk as he drags his still hard length from between my legs, a tiny bit at a time. “Lucky me.”

  “I’m the lucky one, Jenny. Thank you for staying with me and honoring me with your body. Your being here with me has changed my life.”

  Flipping over, I stare into his beautiful eyes and fight the urge to cry. He really means everything he says. When he drops next to me, I turn onto my side and our gazes meet again.

  “Thank you for letting me stay. I’m sure I’m a complication you didn’t count on. Somehow, I’ll make it up to you.” I lean forward and kiss him, intending to lock lips for a long time.

  He pulls back though. “Jenny, I’m the one that has trapped you here on this prison planet with thieves, murderers, and rapists. Thank you for taking a chance on me. I promise to take care of you. I’m sure I love you more than you think you love me.”

  Snorting, I pull him in and lock my lips to his. This time, I don’t let him pull away as I thrust my tongue into his mouth, mimicking his cock he filled me with so perfectly.

  In a few minutes, I need to take a shower so we can go to sleep for the night. But I can take a few minutes to show him just how much more I love him.

  CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

  - Devlin

  As I leave our dwelling the next morning, I spot Selas down the hall talking to a guard outside of his place. I head over to inform them no one is to go inside or bother Jenny until I return.

  “Good morning, Devlin. How was the night here? Are you settling in?” Selas takes a couple steps towards me before I even get to him.

  “Yes, much better. Changing out the mattresses really helped.” Walking toward the door at the end of the hall, I drop my voice. “I will bring over some of my own possessions, but I don’t want anyone to be aware I’m not in the room. Except you and your men, of course. I understand the wisdom in us living here. And Jenny likes it. Especially now that she has Rachel and Amari on this floor too. They plan to stay?”
