Ragnon knew without a doubt that he was blessed by the gods. They were on his side when he stepped inside the arena and conquered all of his opponents during the mate challenge. Now that he’d claimed his pet, Ragnon couldn’t imagine this privilege being given to another male. Dennis belonged to him and Gogrek.
Slowly, Ragnon pulled his hips back, removing his shaft. He hated to leave the warm confines of the young man’s ass, but he needed to give Dennis a break. Ragnon carefully turned Dennis over and pulled his sleeping mate across his chest.
The emotions that he was already feeling for his human pet were overwhelming. As soon as Ragnon walked into the suite and saw Dennis, he knew that the human was meant to be his.
“You are my heart,” he whispered.
As if Dennis heard Ragnon’s words, he sighed softly. The sweet sound went straight to Ragnon’s shaft, and it thickened. Would he ever get enough of his pet?
Even though Ragnon was tired, he wasn’t quite ready to fall asleep. Holding the human in his arms felt amazing, and he didn’t want to miss a single moment. Finally, after what seemed like hours, Ragnon’s eyes closed and he dozed off.
When Ragnon woke, he glanced down at the young man sprawled out across his chest and grinned. Careful not to wake his pet, Ragnon rolled to his side and lay Dennis on his back. Ragnon climbed out of bed and strode across the room. He went into the bathing chamber to use the facilities. As soon as he was finished, Ragnon walked back into the bedroom. Dennis was still asleep.
Ragnon climbed up onto the bed and crawled toward Dennis. He situated himself between the young man’s legs. Leaning down, Ragnon licked Dennis’s cock, running his tongue along the length. When Dennis was hard, Ragnon swallowed him to the root. Dennis moaned, and his entire body shuddered. Glancing up, Ragnon watched as Dennis opened his eyes. The young man blinked a few times before looking at Ragnon. As soon as their eyes connected, the young man groaned.
“Ragnon.”
Wanting to hear more of Dennis’s sweet sounds, Ragnon started bobbing his head. Licking and stroking the young man’s cock, Ragnon moved his mouth up and down. Ragnon ran his hand up and down his shaft, jacking the meaty flesh while collecting the lubricant smeared over his cock.
The oily substance would relax Dennis’s muscles, making it easier for Ragnon to penetrate his pet. He didn’t bother with the toy since Dennis was still nice and stretched.
Pulling his mouth off Dennis’s cock, Ragnon wiped the lubricant over the young man’s hole, coating the rosette with the pad of his finger. When Dennis tipped his head back and moaned, Ragnon knew the substance was working its magic. Dennis was ready for him. Going to his knees, Ragnon wrapped his hand around the base of his shaft. He lined up the head with Dennis’s hole and slowly eased his way past the tight ring of muscle.
Once he was buried deep inside of Dennis, Ragnon stopped. He gave himself a moment to simply enjoy being inside his pet. The young man’s ass tightened around his shaft, squeezing him like a tight fist. When he couldn’t take anymore, Ragnon started moving, pulling back. Swiveling his hips, Ragnon thrust forward, burying his length deep before pulling back.
It wasn’t enough. He needed more. Ragnon built up his speed. He moved faster and harder, adding more pressure to his thrusts. Lifting Dennis’s legs over his forearms, Ragnon changed angles, making sure to hit Dennis’s sweet spot on every stroke.
Dennis’s moans grew louder and more frantic. The sounds told Ragnon everything he needed to know. His pet was going to come and soon. Suddenly, Dennis’s body jerked, his back arched, and thick jets of spunk shot out of the young man’s shaft, painting his chest. Ragnon followed Dennis over the edge. He roared to the ceiling as he came, filling the young man with his seed.
Dropping down over Dennis, Ragnon planted a hand on each side of the young man’s head. He leaned his head down and pressed their lips together. Dennis wrapped his arms around Ragnon’s neck. The young man parted his lips, welcoming Ragnon’s tongue into his mouth. Their tongues moved, twirling and dancing.
Once his head stopped spinning from the intense orgasm, Ragnon broke the kiss. “Let’s get cleaned up, and then, I’ll take you home. I’m sure Gogrek is waiting for us.”
Lifting his arms over his head, the young man stretched. “I want to wake up like this every morning.”
Ragnon grinned and nodded. It sounded like a wonderful idea. Pulling his hips back, Ragnon climbed off the bed. He reached out and picked Dennis up. Holding the young man against his chest, Ragnon carried his pet into the bathing chamber.
Ragnon walked down the stairs and waded through the water. He sat on the bench and situated Dennis so that the young man was sitting on his lap. Running his hands over Dennis, Ragnon washed the young man, removing the spunk from his chest, thighs, and crease.
Dennis moaned softly, laying his head against Ragnon’s chest. “The water feels so good.”
Ragnon reached back and pressed a button. The water churned, moving around the bathing pool.
“Did you enjoy taking baths on Earth?” Ragnon asked.
“There isn’t a lot of usable water on Earth. I used to bathe in a stream near my house. It was cold year-round.”
Ragnon didn’t know much about Earth. But he heard that humans wanted to leave their homeworld and find mates on other planets, so he assumed it must not be a great place to live.
“At our home, we have a bathing chamber similar to this one. You can take a bath every day if you want.”
The human sighed. “I like the sound of that.”
“Will you tell me about your homeworld?”
Dennis was silent for so long that Ragnon wondered if the young man had heard his question.
“I’ve wanted to leave Earth for a long time.”
“Why?” Ragnon couldn’t imagine ever wanting to leave Noglion. The idea had never entered his mind. Noglion was his home.
“The people there are struggling to survive,” Dennis told him. “But since I volunteered to leave, my family will be taken care of. They won’t have to worry about food or water or having a roof over their heads.”
Ragnon wasn’t sure how to respond, so he remained silent, hoping that Dennis would continue talking.
“And I’m finally able to live the way I want.”
“I’m not sure I understand what you mean.”
“On Earth, if you’re different, you’re mistreated.”
“Are you different?” Ragnon asked. Had Dennis been treated poorly on Earth? It seemed impossible. Dennis was such a kind young man.
Dennis nodded, but he didn’t give an explanation.
Ragnon wanted to ask more questions. He wanted to understand what Dennis had gone through, but he didn’t want to upset his mate. Ragnon wrapped his arms around Dennis, holding him in a tight embrace, offering comfort.
“I think you’re perfect.”
“Well, then, it’s a good thing I ended up on Noglion.”
Ragnon smiled. He would protect Dennis and take care of him. Ragnon wouldn’t let anyone treat his mate poorly.
They stayed in the bathing pool for a while, just relaxing in the warm water. Ragnon was tempted to stay in the suite another night, but he knew Gogrek was waiting for them. In fact, Ragnon was pretty sure that his brother was pacing around their home in anticipation of Dennis’s arrival.
Still holding Dennis close, Ragnon rose to his feet. He waded through the water and walked up the stairs. Ragnon put Dennis down, reached out, and grabbed a towel from a nearby shelf. He wrapped the material around Dennis and started drying him. When he was done taking care of his pet, Ragnon wiped the material over his scales.
Ragnon grabbed his discarded loincloth from the floor and put it on, tying it into place around his hips. Next, he put on his sandals, wrapping the cord up around his calves. He would prefer a clean garment, but in his excitement to get to Dennis, Ragnon hadn’t used the bathing pool in the locker room or changed.
Ragnon held out his arm in offering, and Dennis accep
ted. The young man wrapped his hand around Ragnon’s bicep. Together, they strolled out of the bathing chamber. When they reached the front door, Ragnon picked up the collar hanging from a hook. At some point during their stay in the suite, Dennis’s collar and leash had been delivered.
“This collar is for your protection,” Ragnon said, showing Dennis the piece of brown leather. “It tells the other males that you belong to Gogrek and me.”
Ragnon slipped the collar around Dennis’s neck and fastened it at the base of the young man’s throat. He watched as Dennis touched the piece of leather. The young man moved his fingers over the engraved words.
“It’s our family name,” Ragnon told him.
Ragnon watched Dennis closely. He heard that humans didn’t like wearing a collar. When the young man didn’t object or complain, Ragnon attached the leash, holding it loosely in his hand.
“Do I really have to be naked?” Dennis asked, covering his cock with both of his hands. “I don’t feel comfortable like this. I don’t want other people to stare at me. And I don’t want anyone to touch me.”
“The other males can look at you, but they aren’t allowed to touch you.” It was against Noglion law to touch a mate. The penalty for such a crime was harsh.
Dennis sighed. The human didn’t seem pleased.
“I’m sorry.” Ragnon reached out and cupped Dennis’s cheek. “I don’t want you to be unhappy.”
Dennis shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s just the way things are done here,” Ragnon explained. “All non-Noglion races are expected to remain naked at all times, and they must wear a collar and leash when in public, not just humans,” he clarified, wanting Dennis to know that everyone was expected to follow the law. “It’s for your safety and protection. It tells the other Noglions that you are taken and mated.”
The young man nodded.
Ragnon pressed his palm against the pad by the door, and it slid open. He stepped out of the suite, and Dennis followed him. Ragnon took small steps so that Dennis wouldn’t need to keep up with his long strides. Side by side, they walked down the hallway.
Chapter Six
Dennis walked beside Ragnon through a series of twists and turns. It felt as though they were moving through a huge maze. His eyes were wide with wonder as his gaze swept the area, taking in his new surroundings. It was still hard for Dennis to believe that he was really on another planet. Everything felt so surreal, as if it were a vivid dream. When the tunnel opened up into a massive cavern, Dennis stopped in his tracks.
There was a crowd gathered within the cavern. Most of the aliens were Noglion, but there were a few other species. All of the non-Noglions were naked, like Dennis, except for a leather collar and leash. It made Dennis feel less self-conscious. As he scanned the crowd, Dennis quickly realized that there weren’t any females. Did Noglion have women? Or was this planet similar to Glecerus?
In the center of the cavern, there appeared to be some sort of market. There were rows of stalls with food items and various goods and wares. Dennis inhaled, and the smells made his stomach growl and his mouth water, reminding him that he hadn’t eaten for a while. The scent of freshly baked bread, cheese, and meat were easy to detect, but there was also the fragrance of sweet pastries.
“Dennis.”
Ragnon’s voice pulled Dennis from his thoughts. Jerking his head up, Dennis looked at the male. “Huh?”
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I was just looking around.”
“Come on.” Ragnon tilted his head. “I’ll give you a tour later. We’re almost home.”
“Home,” Dennis murmured, and a small smile twisted his lips.
Ragnon led Dennis around the outskirts of the marketplace, toward another tunnel. As they left the boisterous noise and laughter behind, the crowd thinned.
Soon, Ragnon stopped. The male placed his hand on a pad beside the door, and it slid open. As soon as they stepped over the threshold, Gogrek appeared from the hallway. The male grinned widely as he strode toward them. Without any hesitation, Gogrek grabbed Dennis and pulled him into his arms, holding him in a tight embrace. Dennis wrapped his arms around Gogrek’s midsection and placed his head against the male’s chest.
“I missed you,” Gogrek said.
Dennis smiled, and his heart fluttered. He didn’t think he would see Gogrek again. When the male left the suite, and the door closed behind him, Dennis was sure that their paths would never cross. But it seemed that fate had other plans for the two of them.
“I missed you, too.”
Ragnon chuckled. “It hasn’t been that long.”
“Are you hungry?” Gogrek questioned.
At the mention of food, Dennis’s stomach grumbled loudly, turning inside out. He was starved. The last time he’d eaten anything was when he was on the starship.
Gogrek dropped his arms and looked over at Ragnon, shooting his brother a pointed look. Holding out his hand, the male said, “Come with me to the kitchen. I’ll make you something to eat.”
“As soon as he woke up, I brought him home,” Ragnon said defensively as he removed the leash.
Dennis took Gogrek’s hand, intertwining their fingers. As Gogrek led Dennis toward the kitchen, he looked around his new home. The walls were the same brick-colored stone as the rest of the planet, and there were a few tapestries hanging throughout the space, each depicting a desert scene with mountains and plants and two suns. The floor was polished red stone covered in intricately woven rugs. There was a spacious sitting area with a fire pit in the center surrounded by comfortable-looking couches, chairs, and pillows. And the kitchen was large with dark-colored countertops and stools tucked neatly beneath the bar.
Gogrek pulled out a stool, and Dennis took a seat. The male leaned forward and pressed his lips against Dennis’s forehead before walking around the counter. The male removed some sliced meat from the refrigerator before cooking it over an open flame. The meat sizzled. Dennis’s stomach growled in anticipation, and his mouth watered.
“Mmm,” Dennis moaned. “That smells good.”
When Gogrek was done, he put the food on a square plate. He slid the plate across the bar, placing it in front of Dennis. The cuts of meat were lean with no fat marbling in any of the slices. It reminded Dennis of the beef he’d tried a couple of times back home. On Earth, meat was considered a luxury. His family didn’t get the privilege of eating it on a regular basis.
“What is this called?” Dennis asked.
“It’s a popular meat dish called seared momoo.”
Dennis picked up the utensil on the counter. Before he could stab a piece of meat, Ragnon pulled out a stool and sat down beside him. The male picked up a slice of meat with his fingers and brought it up to Dennis’s lips, holding the juicy piece in front of his mouth.
“Allow me to feed you, pet,” Ragnon said.
Dennis put the utensil down. He opened his mouth and took the offering from Ragnon. Dennis chewed slowly, savoring the flavor. He didn’t know what type of animal the meat came from, but it was tender and cooked to perfection.
“Oh, wow,” he groaned. “This is delicious.”
Ragnon fed him bite after bite until the plate was clean and his belly was full.
“Thank you,” he said, grateful to the males for taking care of him.
“You’re welcome, pet.” Gogrek picked up his empty plate from the counter and placed it in the sink.
Ragnon pressed his lips against Dennis’s neck. Dennis tilted his head and moaned. He kept his eyes on Gogrek, watching the male. Gogrek smiled, and his eyes darkened, yellow turning to a smoldering gold. Ragnon kissed a trail up Dennis’s jaw to his cheek and nibbled on his earlobe.
“It’s Gogrek’s turn to claim you, pet.”
Dennis moaned. Turning his head, Dennis kissed Ragnon. The male slid his tongue passed Dennis’s lips, and their mouths moved together. A moment later, the young man felt Gogrek at his back. The same musky scent he’d smelled before surrounded Denn
is. His cock, already at half-mast, instantly hardened. Before Dennis could move, he was lifted off the barstool. Dennis let out a surprised gasp as Gogrek tossed him over his shoulder.
“Let’s take this to the bedroom,” Gogrek said.
Ragnon chuckled as he rose from his seat.
Gogrek carried Dennis out of the kitchen and down a hallway to a large bedroom with a huge bed covered in blankets, furs, and pillows. Dennis wanted to explore his new surroundings, but Gogrek seemed to have other plans. The male dropped Dennis down onto the bed. Sitting up, Dennis stared at the two Noglion males before him. He watched as Gogrek and Ragnon removed their loincloths. Dennis’s gaze dropped first to Gogrek’s thick cock and then to Ragnon’s heavy erection.
Gogrek climbed up onto the bed and crawled toward Dennis like a predator ready to pounce. Dennis leaned back, lying down.
“I’ve been dreaming about you, pet.”
Dennis smiled.
“I’ve been thinking about all the things I want to do to you.”
Gogrek leaned down and pressed his lips against Dennis’s stomach. The male moved up Dennis’s body, his mouth and tongue exploring Dennis’s abdomen and chest. Dennis groaned as Gogrek moved, shifting against the soft bedding.
When the bed dipped, Dennis knew that Ragnon was joining them. Ragnon didn’t seem like to type to sit back and simply watch. The warrior moved in close. He cupped Dennis’s cheek. Turning his head, Dennis looked at Ragnon. The male leaned forward and connected their lips.
Gogrek and Ragnon worked together as a team, both of them giving him pleasure. Rough fingers pinched his nipples, sharp fingernails scratched his skin, mouths tasted his skin, and lips kissed. The males caressed and explored, touching every part of him. Dennis moaned, desperate for more.
“Gods above he’s beautiful,” Gogrek said.
“He’s perfect,” Ragnon murmured.
