“His name is Sigan,” I said.
“Sigan. Sorry.” Lori smiled at Sigan, her gaze traveling over his face. “You’re an interesting looking Draax, aren’t you? I’ve never seen one with your… unique features before.”
Sigan’s face flushed a dark green and he immediately turned around and walked away. I decided between the way Lori was touching Galan and the way she spoke to Sigan, it was a fine time for me to leave before I punched her right in her pretty face.
“You’re a bitch,” I said to her. “Talk to my friend again that way and I’ll kick your fucking ass.”
“Nice language,” Lori said. “Real lady-like.” She smiled up at Galan, dismissing me completely. “Galan, are you ready for that walk now?”
I turned and stomped around the corner. “Sigan, where did you go?”
There was no sign of him, and I jogged down the path, taking random lefts and rights until I was deep in the garden with still no sign of Sigan. I stopped and blew out my breath before lifting my hair off the back of my neck. It was after eight, but the sun – excuse me, keo – was still out and the garden was warm and muggy. I slapped at a bug that was flying around my face before walking further down the path.
I was completely lost but I didn’t care that much. When I didn’t show up at the docking bay tomorrow, it’s not like the Draax couldn’t track me down in the garden. I rubbed at the bump on my arm where the tracking chip was.
“Stupid Lori and her stupid pretty face,” I muttered before pitching my voice higher. “It’s a good job that the Draax like big asses, right? Don’t you just love my big ass, Galan?”
I could hear voices behind me, one was definitely female, and I froze in spot for a second. Shit, it would be just my luck that stupid Lori and I refuse to find him sexy anymore Galan would walk the exact path I did.
I sprinted to the t-intersection, muttering another curse when both left and right were dead ends. Shit. The voices were growing closer. There was a thick grove of pale green bushes to my left and I darted toward them, sliding past the soft green leaves and light blue flowers. There was a small natural clearing in the middle of the bushes, and I stopped in the middle of it before turning and peering through the leaves and branches at the path.
The voices grew louder and I rolled my eyes when I realized it wasn’t Galan and Lori after all. It was a pretty blonde woman and a Draax who I’d never seen before. I groaned under my breath when they both sat down on the bench. Oh great, looked like they were settling in for a nice long chat, which was stupid because, frankly, this part of the garden was a bit boring and based on the way some of the bushes had overgrown the path, not many of the Draax even walked this way or…
I clapped my hand over my mouth, muffling my squeak of surprise when the woman and the Draax kissed. And not just a sweet little chaste kiss either. They were already going at it, tongues flailing, lips devouring, hands… oh God, hands taking off clothes.
I took a step back, staring wide-eyed at the woman as the Draax stripped off her shirt before cupping her breast through her bra. She moaned and clutched at his broad back when he pulled the cup down and sucked on her nipple.
Holy shit.
The Draax unhooked her bra after a bit of fumbling and the woman giggled at him. “You need more practice.”
He grinned and cupped both of her breasts, rubbing his thumbs over the nipples until her giggles were replaced with moans. “Perhaps you will allow me to practice every day.”
“Perhaps,” she said as she arched her back.
I swallowed hard, more than a little turned on by the way the Draax was worshipping the woman’s tits with his hands and mouth.
Great, now I was a pervert in the bushes, spying on people having sex. What was wrong with me?
I couldn’t exactly waltz out of the bushes, so my choices were to close my eyes or try and slide out of the bushes on the other side and hope that there was a path.
The woman moaned so loudly that my gaze was drawn back to her. She was straddling the Draax’s lap now. His shirt was gone, and she was dry humping the hell out of him as he cupped her ass and continued to suck on her nipples.
“Get it, girl,” I said under my breath as her moans and cries grew louder.
Damn, I really did need to get laid if I was jealous over –
There was a low rustle in the bushes behind me and a hand clamped across my mouth, muffling my shriek of surprise.
“What are you doing hiding in the hydrana bush, little human?” His low voice whispered in my ear and fuck if my nipples didn’t immediately get hard.
“You scared the hell out of me, Galan,” I whispered when he moved his hand. “Why are you spying on me? That’s rude.”
His low chuckle sent shivers down spine. “I am rude? When you are the one watching Hingi and a female have sex?”
“They aren’t having sex,” I said. “They’re only, uh, making out, and I didn’t mean to spy on them. It just sort of happened. I’m not a pervert.”
“First you spy on me from my closet while I’m touching myself, and now you spy on Hingi while he’s touching his female,” Galan said.
“Well, when you put it that way, yeah, I kind of look like a pervert, but I’m not,” I said.
The woman’s moans were so loud now that I couldn’t help but look. Shock ran through me.
“Holy shit.”
While I was talking to Galan, they’d been joined by a third Draax and… holy double shit… the woman was completely naked and riding the first Draax’s dick while she sucked enthusiastically on the second Draax’s dick.
“She, uh,” I swallowed hard, “she looks like she’s having fun.”
“Indeed,” Galan said.
His big hand cupped my breast and I moaned when he toyed with my nipple through my shirt. “I have missed your sweet nipples, little human.”
“They, uh, they missed you too,” I said and then groaned at how stupid I sounded.
His low chuckle made me arch into his hand. God, I was so wet, I was pretty sure I was about to have a wet spot on my pants. This no underwear thing was starting to be a real problem.
In front of us, the woman was still sucking hard on the Draax dick while the first one fucked her with rough strokes. Her moans of pleasure and delight were so loud, I wouldn’t have been surprised if the Draax at the far end of the garden could hear her.
My guilt growing at spying on her, I pushed away from Galan and shoved my way through the bushes. They were slightly bent and broken already, thanks to Galan, and it wasn’t long before I was standing clear of them on the other side. There was a large tree on the other side of the path, and I backed toward it as Galan emerged from the bushes.
He had a look of feral need on his face and I licked my lips in nerves and anticipation when he backed me up until I felt the tree against my back.
He brushed one long finger over my nipples that were protruding against my shirt.
“Galan,” I pushed his hand away, “we’re right in the open. The path is right there.”
“This is a quieter part of the garden,” Galan said. “It does not have many visitors.”
“Uh… there’s three right on the other side of those bushes,” I said.
“They seem to be busy,” he said with a small grin as the woman’s cries grew louder.
“How did you even find me?”
“Your tracking chip is linked to my vertex.” He pulled out a device from his pocket that looked remarkably similar to our PAR phones. “You see.”
He pointed to the blinking red dot on the screen.
“Right,” I said. I needed to remember that Galan had been ghosting me. Only, with him standing so close and touching me, it was kind of hard to remember that I was supposed to be pissed at him. “Well, if you’ll excuse me…”
He didn’t take the hint, leaning in instead and kissing my throat. “I have missed you, little human. I lay in bed every night and stare at the wall that separates us. I think about how tigh
t your pussy is, how well you took my cock, how it sounded when you came on my face.”
I moaned, my back arching when Galan slid his hand under my shirt and cupped my breast. “Do you lie awake at night and think about me, human?”
“Sometimes,” I said.
“Only sometimes?” He arched a thick brow at me before slipping his hand into my pants. “Perhaps I should remind you of what you are missing?”
“Oh God, I… ohhh… oh, that’s so good.” My hand, which was tugging on his forearm, clutched instead, and I rocked my pussy against his rough fingers.
He moved closer, bracing one arm on the tree above my head and kissing me with those slow and coaxing kisses that made me hot.
“I love how wet you are for me, Ellis.” He kissed a path across my cheek to my ear and sucked on my lobe. “I want you to come for me.”
“That’s not a problem,” I said.
He laughed and nipped at my earlobe before leaning back. He watched my face, his fingers rubbing small, firm circles over my clit as pleasure pooled in my lower belly. My legs trembling, my worry that we would be caught, forgotten, I strained for my climax. I rose up on my tiptoes when Galan slid two thick fingers into me and flicked at my clit with his thumb.
“Come for me, sweet Ellis,” he whispered and then crushed his mouth down on mine, swallowing my cry of pleasure as I climaxed.
I shuddered wildly, clinging to Galan as I buried my face in his thick neck and tried to catch my breath. His tail was wrapped around my waist, helping to hold me up, and I could feel his hard cock against my hip.
He kissed my temple before easing his fingers out of my pussy and sliding them out of my pants. “You are beautiful when you come, Ellis.”
“Thanks.” My voice was muffled against his throat. “Your turn.”
I reached for his crotch, leaning back and scowling at him when he caught my wrist. “What?”
“It is getting late,” Galan said. “Come, little human, I will return you to your quarters.”
“Are you fucking kidding me?” I said. “Galan, I don’t want –”
Two Draax turned the corner and slowed to a stop, staring at both of us before their gazes dropped to Galan’s tail still wrapped around my waist.
His face a dark green, Galan let his tail drop before stepping back from the tree and onto the path. “Good evening.”
“Good evening, Galan,” the larger one said.
I joined them and smiled at the Draax. “Hey, I’m Ellis.”
Galan made a weird growling noise, his tail whipping out to wrap around my hips again, when the other Draax’s gaze dropped to my tits. My nipples were obviously hard against the thin fabric and I resisted the urge to cross my arms over my tits.
Galan’s tail tightened, making me wince, as he made another one of those weird growls. “Stop staring at her tits, Hendren, before you feel my blade in your belly.”
“Galan!” I elbowed him in the side. “Stop that.”
“My apologies, Galan,” Hendren said. “But rest assured, I am in no way attracted to the small female.”
Without another word, he and the second Draax continued down the path. I stared up at Galan. “What was that about?”
“He wants you for himself.” Galan’s voice was low and angry, and his skin had gone from its usual emerald green to forest green. “He cannot have you.”
“He doesn’t want me,” I said. “Snap out of it, dude. You’re the only Draax in the castle, hell in the entire province, who wants me, so knock it off with the over-the-top jealousy. Also, your tail is squeezing me too tight.”
He released his tail, letting it flick back and forth behind him. His copper eyes glowed in the golden light of the setting sun, and he took my arm almost roughly. “Come, human. It is time to return to your quarters.”
Chapter Fourteen
Ellis
“You know, you’re being a real dickhead.” I refused to step into my apartment when Galan opened the door. “You ghost me for two weeks and then you corner me in the garden, make me come all over your fingers, and now you’re gonna go right back to pretending like nothing happened.”
“What do you mean by I ghost you?” Galan said.
“Ignored me, avoided me, pretended I didn’t exist,” I said. “You’re running hot and cold, you know that, right? Why did you kiss me in the garden? Why did you make me come?”
“Because I have missed you,” Galan said. “And when I saw you, I could not resist touching you again. It is why I have been,” he paused, “ghosting you. I have no self-control when I am around you, little human.”
Man, a Draax’s honesty and bluntness was a refreshing change from Earth guys’ mind games.
“I’ve missed you too,” I said. “A lot. We were starting to be friends, right?”
“Yes,” Galan said. “But I want to have sex with you as well and there are many reasons why we cannot. It would be unkind of me to lead you into believing we could have a relationship when -”
“I’m not an idiot,” I said. “I know we can’t have a relationship. Even if you were willing to come to Earth to visit me in prison, I’m pretty sure I’ll be dead before you could even request a conjugal visit.”
His skin paled to light green and his tail thumped against the wall. “Do not speak of your possible death so carelessly, little human.”
I shrugged. “Hey, we all gotta go sometime, right? I made my choice and now I have to live with the consequences.”
“Ellis -”
I held up my hand. “I don’t want to talk about what happens when I go back to Earth, okay? I want to talk about you and me being friends with benefits while I’m here.”
He didn’t reply and I said, “Friends with benefits is -”
“I know what it is,” he said.
“Cool. So, what do you say? Are you in?”
It took me a few minutes to understand why he still hesitated. My stomach clenched and hurt flooded through me, but I pushed it down ruthlessly. Of course, he wouldn’t want the others to know he was banging me. One, I was a prisoner and a thief, and two, he might find me attractive but none of the other Draax did. The Draax might be sweeter than human guys, but that didn’t mean Galan wanted to be seen with the ugliest girl at the prom.
“I won’t tell anyone,” I said.
“It is not that I want to keep it a secret,” he said, “but if the others found out, it would -”
“I know,” I said. “I totally get it and I’m perfectly fine to keep it between you and me.”
He stared at me, his copper eyes reflecting his internal war over whether he could trust me.
I stepped closer and rested my hand on his forearm. “Galan, I promise I won’t say anything. I know I’ve lied in the past, but I’m not lying about this. I will keep it a secret. You can trust me.”
“Are you certain you understand we cannot have a relationship?” Galan said. “That this can only be sex between us?”
“Yes,” I said. “I won’t refer to you as my boyfriend or expect the girlfriend treatment, I promise. Just two people banging each other’s brains out on a regular basis.
I grinned at him, but his face remained solemn.
I cleared my throat. “Or a semi-regular basis. Or, just for tonight if that’s all you want.”
Lord, could I sound any more pathetic? I wanted to walk back my words, maybe try and sound like I had a little pride, but I couldn’t do it. The war would end, I’d go to prison, and then I’d die. This was my only and last chance to get laid, and that’s why my desire to fuck Galan was so intense.
Is it?
I cleared my throat again. “I won’t, uh, complain so much when we’re having sex this time, I promise. I was just a bit nervous about your dick size the first time but now that I know what I’m dealing with, I won’t be such a whining chicken about it.”
He frowned at me before closing my apartment door and taking my hand. We walked the couple of steps to his apartment and I followed him inside
. He shut the door and wrapped his tail around my waist, pulling me up close.
He touched my face before smoothing back my hair. “You did very well to take my cock, Ellis, especially for how little you are. Being apprehensive about it is nothing you need to apologize for.”
I hooked my arms around his waist and smiled up at him. “Okay, cool. You ready to get naked?”
He laughed. “Yes, little human, I am ready to get naked.”
I stood on my tiptoes and he bent his head, pressing his lips against mine. The kiss started off gentle and sweet but quickly turned heated. I sucked on his tongue when Galan slid it into my mouth and stuck my hands up the back of his shirt, running my fingertips over the large muscles in his back.
He tugged his shirt off and I stepped back and stared greedily at his naked chest. “Your eight pack is very impressive.”
I traced each slab of muscle, smiling when he moaned and goosebumps appeared on his skin. The front of his pants was tented, and I cupped his cock, rubbing him through the fabric. His eyes went from copper to burnt bronze and I arched my back when he cupped my breast. His thumb brushed against my nipple and he bent his head and kissed me again. It was hot and feverish, and I fumbled at the button on his pants as he cupped the back of my skull and angled his mouth over mine.
He took the kiss deep and I could feel the vibration of his groan when I finally succeeded in unbuttoning his pants and stuck my hand down the front of them. I wrapped my fingers around his thick cock and stroked him with slow, firm pulls.
His big hand cupped my ass and squeezed hard, his head falling back when I kissed his chest. I sucked on his flat nipple and his hips jerked against me, nearly knocking me over.
I giggled and kissed his chest again. “Let’s take this to the couch, big guy.”
He followed me without argument. I pushed on his chest until he sat but shook my head when he tried to tug me into his lap. “Nope, not yet. It’s my turn to taste you.”
He inhaled sharply, his gaze arrowing in on my mouth. “Take off your clothes first,” he growled.
Lust burned in my belly and I quickly stripped as Galan shoved his pants down his legs and off his feet. He sat on the couch, one big hand lazily stroking his cock as he stared at my naked body.
