“Yes, of course, you are right,” I said.
CHAPTER EIGHT
CYLO HYDROS
That damn water creature had the best of me. But I wasn’t going to go down without a fight. No creature or dragon took me down ever, and it was no different now. Even though the creature caught me off guard, I was well aware of the screams that were coming over the water. Hearing Melody scream like that was too much to bear. I knew that I had to get loose. I could not leave her on this wild island without me.
Now, as we sat around the fire in the safety of the rocks high above the lake, I was able to access the situation better.
“What can we do now?” she asked me.
“I am not entirely sure yet. I will come up with a plan when I have more information. It seems that we are on a fairly wild planet, or if there are villages, we are far from them. For now, we will stay the dark hours here and set out at first light,” I said to her.
“I can’t believe this is happening. I can’t believe that we were shot down,” she said playing with a stick as she stuck it in the fire.
“Yes, I can’t believe it either. It seemed to be too deliberate to be a general space thief. This pilot was flying with purpose. Space thieves don’t shoot down the ship and cause it to crash. What’s the point in that? There will be nothing to gain from that. Space thieves get close enough and disable a ship with a magnetic pulse and then bring it in and take it apart. They use all that they can and sell the rest. They take the hostages into the slave markets on slave planets. There is a formula to it, and this pilot did not follow that formula.
“But who would want to shoot us down?” she asked.
“Maybe not us, but me. I am a prince. But there is one thing that I am thinking of. It could be the opposition. There have been whispers of the opposition turning from just arguing about opposing the hybrid breeding to actually taking violent action against it. I hope that is not true, but it could be what we experienced,” I said sadly.
“No. That would be a civil war amongst the Draqua. That would separate everyone. It is such a peaceful village; I cannot see that happening,” Melody said. I admired her love for the village, but I knew that true hearts of dragons.
“Yes, it seems that way, but you forget it is a village full of dragons and dragons have tempers. They are fire breathers, and they are fire thinkers,” I said.
“Yes, I suppose you are right. You would know. I was only there for a very short time. I do not know anything of the Draqua, but I have seen the temper of a dragon,” she said.
“I am sorry about that. My brother should have never scared you like that. It was very wrong of him. He will pay for it when I return,” I said.
“It is okay. I understand his suspicions. But yeah, he was a dick about it,” she said.
I laughed, “Yes a dick.”
“I just don’t understand why the elders would care about this human breeding if it is going to save your race. What has happened to the female Draqua? Is breeding with a human female just a choice or a necessity?” she asked.
“It is a necessity. We need you. You see, about twenty years ago the female Draqua started to have problems with breeding offspring. Many of them died in the process. Many of them could not get pregnant at all. We thought it was something they were eating or some unknown disease, but we were never able to figure it out. So that was when the king made the decision to seek females outside of Kelon. The human females turned out to be perfect. Not only was the mating successful but the hybrid dragon warriors the union bore turned out to have powers. It was perfect. But as the powers grew and more and more hybrids were born, the elders, the ones that can only shift into full dragon form, started to become jealous of the powers,” I said.
“But your brother is a full dragon. Is he jealous of your powers?” she asked.
“He has never said so. But I have suspected so. I remember the first time I discovered my power. I was very young, and he was very angry about it. We wrestled on the beach about it. It was a strange time. But now hybrid is considered completely normal, and there are hundreds of us. But the opposition continues to grow, and there are more of them than there are hybrids.”
“But that doesn’t make sense. If the female Draqua can’t have offspring at the moment, then the opposition should embrace this. Otherwise the Draqua will die off,” she said.
“Yes, those are wise words, Melody. But the dragon are stubborn. They would rather die a pure race than this new hybrid race. It is a messy situation. It is one that worries me,” I said.
“So you think that someone from your own planet shot you down? That is treason where I come from. You are the prince,” she said.
“Yes, it is very bad where I come from too. It worries me. If they came after me, then that means the unrest on Kelon is greater than I knew and as you said, it could be civil war. It could have erupted already. I need to get back there as soon as I can,” I said.
“I’m sorry. I am sorry that I had to take you from that,” she said.
“No, don’t blame yourself. This is not your fault. This is my fault. I am the one that took you. This is all on me,” I said.
“What is that?” she said as she stood up.
I followed her gaze,” What? What do you see?” I asked.
“There, look, a light,” she said pointing at the sky.
“That is a ship,” I said seeing the blinking orange and white light. It was flying over us and into the west. “That is good news. That means that there is a village, or civilization nearby. It looks like that ship is going lower; it’s going to land to the west. That is where we will go to at first light.”
“But what will we do when we get there?” she asked.
“Buy a ship and get you home and get me home,” I said.
“Buy? How? Is there some sort of space credit that you have out here as a prince?” she asked.
“Good point,” I said as I walked over to the edge of the cliff thinking. I stared at the lake where we had crashed.
“Stay here,” I said to Melody.
“What?! What the hell are you talking about?” she said as she stomped toward me. She was ready to strike me with her feisty remarks. But I cut her off. I pulled her to me and planted a kiss on her lips. She stopped talking. She melted against me.
Then I pulled myself from her. “Don’t worry I will return. I am a dragon,” I said to her.
“Wait, what?” she said.
I leaped off the edge of the cliff and flew over the lake. I flew high looking for the exact area where we had crashed. I could see the faint blinking light of the ship console. I had to do this, and I had to do it fast before getting caught by the creature. I flew straight up in the air and then stopped at a very good height. I turned back toward the lake and dove. I dove at a speed so fast that when I hit the water, the creature would not have time to get to me.
Whoosh! I broke through the surface of the water and dove straight down into the depths of the thick dark lake. I moved fast keeping a hyper-awareness of my surroundings. I swam straight into the ship. I was safe for now. The ship was too small for the creature to get inside of. I swam to the back of the ship and tore open a panel. There I found a heavy box. I picked it up and swam to the windshield. I stopped, looking into the depth as far as I could see. The area seemed clear. I swam out of the ship and into the black abyss.
Whoosh! Something swam by me. I turned in a circle and saw nothing. I shot straight for the surface as fast as I could, but the heavy box was weighing me down. But I could not let the box go. We needed it.
Whoosh! A tentacle swished by me. “Shit!” I swam harder, darting around in a zig-zag pattern toward the surface as the creature trailed me. Whoosh! Another tentacle swished past me trying to get a hold of me. Then I broke through the surface and straight into the air. I turned to see the creature’s tentacles above water grasping at air. It was too late. I was out of range and very thankful. I flew back to the light of the campfire and landed next to it.
r /> “Are you out of your mind? What the hell was that all about? I can’t believe you would risk going back in there. You have lost your mind!” Melody shouted at me.
“I had to go back for this!” I said as I opened the box.
“Is that… gold?” she asked.
“Yes, the universal currency for all galaxies. This will buy us a ship and all the things we need when we get to the village tomorrow,” I said.
“Still, why did you have to do that? I was so terrified. You were down there for so long. I thought the creature got you. I thought you were dead,” she said as her eyes watered.
“I’m sorry. I had to. I couldn’t tell you what I was going to do cause I knew that you would be against it. It’s all right now though. Calm yourself and don’t be so sad. I can’t handle that sadness in your eyes,” I said stepping toward her with the adrenaline of getting away from the creature roaming through my veins. She was so delicate and fragile in her state, and the last kiss I gave her before jumping off the cliff was still on my mind.
“Yes, I would have stopped you. I don’t want to lose you,” she said trembling.
“Come here, you are trembling,” I said as I grabbed her hand and moved her closer to the fire.
“I’m trembling out of fear of losing you,” she said. “That creature in the lake is such a monster. It is all teeth, and it wants you. I did not think I would ever see you again the first time, but then you put me through it again a second time,” she said.
“I am sorry,” I said lifting her chin to me. “I promise I will not go back into that lake ever again,” I said as I looked into her brown eyes. She was so gentle and vulnerable, and I could no longer keep myself from her full lips. I pressed my lips against hers and took her mouth. I brushed my lips against hers and then pushed my tongue slowly into her mouth. She moaned. Her arms went up to my shoulders as she pressed her palms against them. She rubbed my chest up and down, feeling the muscles there. I wrapped my arm around her small waist and pulled her to me. I would not be able to stop myself this time.
CHAPTER NINE
MELODY REEVES
I was so pissed off at him for flying back into the lake the way he did. He left me all alone on the cliffside and went to face the monster again. I couldn’t tell if he was very brave or very stupid. So when he finally emerged, I was so damn happy to see him. I was so happy that when he finally kissed me and pulled me into his arms, I was so happy to be in those arms.
“Mmm…” I moaned as he kissed me. I rubbed my hands up and down his chest. He was so strong, and although I could not feel the scales that were on his skin, I knew that they were there. His wings spread out behind him and it was such a surreal and erotic moment.
“I want you, Melody. I cannot wait anymore. I want to make love to you. I want to be inside of you,” Cylo said to me between kissing me.
“Yes, please, I want that too, Cylo,” I responded. He groaned and picked me up. He carried me to a patch of soft moss on the rocks near the fire. He laid me down gently. He kissed my mouth and moved his lips down my chin to my neck. Cylo kissed my neck and down to my cleavage just like he had before. Then he pulled down gently on the material covering my breasts. My nipples were already hard, feeling so aroused by him. He pushed the sheer dress up my body, going up my thighs, to my belly, and then over my head. Cylo helped me take off my dress. Then he groaned as his fingers pressed my nipples. Then he hungrily took them into his mouth, licking and sucking.
“Oh yes, Cylo, that feels so good. Don’t stop, please. That feels so good,” I said as I pushed my fingers through Cylo’s long dark hair. He was so much bigger than I was and I felt small and delicate underneath him. He kissed me softly as though he would hurt me with too much pressure, but then that softness would give way to a voracious hunger, as he would forget himself.
I wrapped my legs around the back of Cylo’s thighs. They were very muscular and solid, and I rubbed the bottom of my feet up and down his calves. He moaned and groaned again.
“You are so beautiful, Melody. You are so beautiful and intelligent. I can’t believe I am with you right now,” Cylo said.
“I can’t believe it either. It feels right; this feels right,” I whispered to Cylo.
He let out a soft sigh and then moved his lips from my nipples and massaged my breasts in his massive hands. His lips moved down to my belly as he placed soft kisses there as he went further and further down. I opened my eyes, looking at his wings spread out over us as though shielding us. I could not believe that I was mating with this alien creature. It was exotic, and it only turned me on more to see those wings above us. I looked at his arm holding himself up on the rock and looked at the tattoo-like pattern of scales on him. They were beautiful and I put my hand on top of it and rubbed up and down. Then Cylo grabbed my loincloth in his teeth and slid it off of me down to my thighs.
“Mmm…” I moaned in response. He let out a sigh. Then he looked up at me with his kind brown eyes as his thick strands of black hair dangled in front of them. “I want to taste you, Melody,” Cylo said.
I bit my lower lip, and my eyes widened. I nodded my head yes as it was all I could do in response to his filthy words. He smirked a dashing sideways smirk that drove me wild. Then Cylo put his face between my thighs. His tongue moved from his mouth to my wet center.
“Oh, Oh, Oh god,” I whispered as he licked me up and down slowly. I felt like his own personal ice cream cone as he moved up and down. I thought I would cum immediately as he licked me. It was the notion of having Cylo between my thighs that was such a turn on to me. I had wanted this exact fantasy to play out since I’d met him and now it was actually happening. It was so damn hot. I felt sensitive as soon as he licked me.
Cylo moaned, “Melody you taste so good. I want you. I want to be inside of you.” He said this between lickings and when he was finished with the breathy words, he plunged his tongue inside of me.
“Oh! Oh!” I whispered as my fingers pressed into the flesh of his shoulders. I was almost there, and I did not know how much longer I could hold out. He moved his tongue around inside me slowly. Then he moved higher and pressed his tongue against my clitoris. “Oh shit, oh shit,” I whispered.
“Do you like that? That feels good, doesn’t it?” he said. “Tell me that it feels good.”
“It feels good,” I responded as I felt a daze come over me.
“Tell me you won’t let anyone else lick this except for me,” he whispered.
“I won’t let anyone else lick me except for you,” I said in response to his orders. Then he pressed harder and flicked my clitoris back and forth. “Oh god! I’m going to release! I’m going to release!” I screamed as I pushed my fingers through his hair and tangled the strands around my fingers. I pulled on them. “I’m cumming! I’m cumming!” I shouted.
Cylo moaned as I came in his mouth and licked me up and down, enjoying and savoring every bit of me. I wiggled under him, trying to endure the pulsations that raced through me. I was on a cloud as my orgasm exploded inside of me, almost causing me to lose consciousness. Cylo moaned as he licked me. Then he placed soft kisses on the inside of my thigh. Then he kissed my belly and slowly made my way up to my mouth. We kissed as I allowed the sensation of the climax to move through my entire body. After a few moments, I had regained some of my composure.
“Are you all right?” he asked.
“Yes, couldn’t be better,” I smiled.
“Good,” he said.
“But now it’s my turn,” I said.
“Oh, is it?” he asked arching his brow.
“Yes, it is,” I said wiggling out from under him. I got on my knees, and he leaned back on his knees. I pulled on the belt of the loincloth and unwrapped it from his waist. He moaned and sucked in a sharp breath of air. Then I pulled the loincloth off completely.
“Oh my,” I said as I saw his massive hard cock. It was long and thick and completely proportionate to his nine-foot frame.
“Is that a good thing?�
�� he asked.
I took a deep breath,” Yes, very, very good,” I said. Then I took his cock in both of my hands.
“Mmm… that feels so good, Melody,” Cylo said as I rubbed his cock up and down. I wanted to please him. I tightened my hands and moved faster and then slower and then fast again. “Oh fuck, oh fuck,” he whispered.
But I was only just beginning. I bent over at the waist and placed the tip of Cylo’s cock in my mouth. He moaned and put his hands on my back. His hands were warm as he rubbed it up and down. Then I licked around the tip as he groaned again. Cylo pulled my long hair up on top of my head and held it there. “I want to watch you, Melody,” Cylo said to me. I melted there with those words, and I continued my sensual massage. I pushed Cylo’s cock deeper into my mouth and then out again. But it was so large that I could not fit all of it. But he did not seem to mind this.
