She raised an eyebrow at him, encouraging him.
Within seconds, he was on top of her. She pushed herself up against his hard member, aching for him. He ground into her, rubbing his cock against her core with smooth thrusts. Just seconds before she was about to chastise him again for teasing her, he positioned himself so the head of his cock was between her legs.
Kira’s breath caught in her throat and then, with a quick thrust, he was inside of her. His hands gripped her hips to keep her steady as he pumped into her. His growls mixed with her moans and an overwhelming aching pleasure started to build inside her. Breathlessly, Kira shifted so she could rest her ankles on Xeegan’s shoulders, allowing him to penetrate her even deeper.
Xeegan groaned at the changed angle, thrusting even harder. His movements gained a frenzied edge and he reached down with a hand between her legs. He fingered her clit rapidly, sending electric bolts of pleasure through her to the tips of her toes.
“Oh god…” Fast learner.
The combination of his cock hitting deep within her and the pressure on her clit was too much. If Xeegan kept going like this, she wouldn’t last much longer.
“Wait,” she breathed. “Slow down. We’re not in a hurry here.”
Xeegan’s eyes locked on her and he slowed his thrusts. His expression looked pained, as if he was on the edge and doing his hardest to hold back and do as she asked. It was incredibly sexy.
“Like this?” he asked through gritted teeth, moving both hands to her shins to steady her as he moved at a leisurely rhythm.
“Yeah,” she said, shutting her eyes and reveling in the magnificent feeling of the slow friction between her legs. She was still close, but the gentle way Xeegan was moving now was keeping her right there.
If only they could stay like this forever…
Eventually, she readjusted her legs so they were relaxed on the bed, lazily wrapped around Xeegan’s hips. Following suit, Xeegan leaned down so his torso slick with sweat was against hers, propping himself up on his elbows.
She placed her hands on his back, feeling the subtle tightening and relaxing of his muscles as he moved, and digging her fingertips into his soft fuzzy skin every time he pushed into her and hit that perfect spot.
Her breathing quickened and she pressed her thighs against him as the amazing sensation only continued to build. No matter how slowly he moved, there was no delaying her pleasure now.
Kira moaned as the deliciously slow orgasm overtook her, leaving her mind completely blank and every nerve ending tingling. Her muscles contracted around Xeegan’s hard cock, and the feeling of her climax seemed to take him over the edge as well.
His cock expanded impossibly inside her and she felt every throb of his giant cock as he came inside her, burst after burst, the feeling of new warmth within her only extending her own climax.
Following her basest instincts, she grabbed onto his horns again and drew him against her mouth for a rough kiss as they both basked in the fading sensation.
“Oh… Wow,” she said when she could finally breathe again, letting her hands drop to the bed.
How lucky was she to have found this guy? Brave, strong, loyal, funny, and naturally fucking amazing in bed… He might’ve been a pirate, but he had a heart of gold and the stamina of a bull.
Xeegan rolled onto his back and she positioned herself so she could use his bicep as a pillow. The scent of sex was in the air, along with smoke and ash. They both still smelled like the aftermath of the demolished lab although it had been days.
“Hey,” she said, craning her neck to look up toward him. He grinned back, flashing his sharp teeth. “Want to shower?”
He looked confused. “Shower?” he asked.
“Together,” she clarified with a smile. “And who knows, maybe we can go for round two.”
Xeegan knit his brow, still looking like he didn’t know what she meant. He had been a virgin only a week ago, she had to remind herself. He hadn’t ever had shower sex. Or bend-her-over-the-table sex. Or quickie sex, or morning sex, or make-up sex…
Kira sat up in bed, still aching between the legs with pleasure, and laughed at Xeegan’s expression.
“You’ll see,” she said cryptically.
There was so much to show him, and not just sexually. There was no doubt she was falling in love with him and she couldn’t wait to show him what it meant to be loved, and in love.
But they could start with shower sex.
“Come on,” she said. “Let’s go see what kind of state-of-the-art shower this place has.”
She grabbed his hand and pulled him up after her, laughing, her heart full of joy.
EPILOGUE
XEEGAN
Xeegan checked the credit amount on the screen of his wristband, then swiped it away and checked again. He could barely believe his eyes.
10,000 credits.
“Can you believe it, buddy?” Xeegan asked Zorq, who was attempting to check his own balance on his specially fitted wristband. “What the hell are we supposed to do with all this money?”
It was more money than Xeegan had ever seen in one place, let alone legally attached to his name. With Kira vouching for him and his part in taking down the Krezlian lab on Riala, the Alliance had quickly pardoned all of Xeegan’s past crimes. After a crash course of basic training, he, Zorq, and Kira had been transferred to Inea, one of the largest and most urban Alliance planets.
Xeegan would never forget the day they got on the shuttle to Inea and he was able to see the planet grow larger and larger as they flew closer. The entire surface of the planet was covered in towering, glittering buildings made of solar-powered materials. He had known right away that he wouldn’t miss the barren wastelands that separated the cities of Riala.
And he had been right. Inea was great, but what really made it perfect was that Kira was at his side. The Alliance had even agreed to employ Zorq after hearing Xeegan talk about his enhanced abilities, and the three of them had been given a four-bedroom apartment in a good neighborhood in the capital.
It was a bit much, if you asked Xeegan, but Zorq had been happy, and so was Kira. Life was very different on Inea than what he was used to, but Xeegan didn’t mind.
The work wasn’t so bad either. The transition from pirate to Alliance agent had been oddly smooth. Xeegan used pretty much all the same skills; it was just that now he was taking down the criminals instead of waiting for a pitiful paycheck from them. Plus, he got to work with Zorq, just like he was used to.
They had just finished reporting the details of how they had successfully completed their first mission to their supervising agent. After about a week of undercover work, Xeegan and Zorq had easily taken down a smalltime drug distribution from the inside. The feeling of knowing that the streets of the city Kira lived in were that much safer… it was more than satisfying.
It wasn’t just Kira that Xeegan had to think about now anyway. Not just Zorq either.
“What are you going to use your credits on, Zorq?” Xeegan asked, turning to his friend as they walked out to the street.
The Ezak-T made an unsure sound and seemed to consider the question for a moment. Finally, he mimed drinking and eating. Xeegan laughed.
“10,000 credits would buy you basically a lifetime of beer,” he said with a smirk. “You should get yourself a virtual reality entertainment system, or a food simulator, or something like that.”
Zorq shrugged. No matter what Xeegan said, he knew that his friend would probably just spend his money on the basic comforts that he was used to: bars and street food. Knowing that Zorq would never run out of credits for what he wanted, whatever that may be, made Xeegan happy.
“You have plenty of time to think about what you want,” Xeegan said. “I know what I’m spending my first paycheck on, though. Want to come with?”
Zorq grunted and nodded happily, loping around Xeegan.
“Come on then.” He grinned. “Let’s go.”
With the raise of a hand, Xeegan
hailed the nearest transport pod driving by. It peeled off from the rest flying vehicles between the buildings, slowed, and came to a whisper of a stop before them.
The side door lifted and Xeegan climbed in, having to crouch to fit. Zorq squeezed in after him. The pods were a great transportation system that basically eliminated the need for personal vehicles on the planet, but they were designed to fit the majority of species.
Xeegan and Zorq were not the majority of species.
The pods were only barely large enough to fit him and Zorq together.
“The nearest… maternity store,” Xeegan requested, having to think about how to phrase where he wanted to go. He didn’t think he had ever used that word before.
Against everything he had thought possible, Kira had gotten pregnant a couple of moons ago when they were making preparations to move to Inea. Finding out had changed Xeegan’s entire perspective on life, and only motivated him more to do everything he could to keep the citizens of the planet – and the rest of the universe – safe.
Their baby.
10,000 credits was more than he knew what to do with, but he could already think of a million different things that he could buy Kira and their future child with that money.
They flew at a moderate, steady pace through the towering buildings of the capital, until they were dropped off at a small storefront. A helpful Va’ii woman offered to guide Xeegan through their inventory on a tablet, but he brushed her off and browsed himself with Zorq trailing behind.
Soon, his arms were full with the softest silk body pillow he had ever felt, a couple of boxes containing a state-of-the-art nursing pump system, and several bars of gourmet Inean chocolate. Kira hadn’t stopped talking about her cravings for the sweet for weeks now.
Zorq stared at him as he walked toward the register, craning his neck to be able to see past the pile in his arms.
“What?” Xeegan asked. “You think this is too much?”
The Ezak-T shook his head and held out his arms. Oh. He was offering to help carry what Xeegan had picked out.
“Thanks,” Xeegan muttered as he handed Zorq a couple of things, a little embarrassed at how ridiculous the two of them must look.
“Is that all?” the clerk asked with a barely repressed smile, before ringing up his purchases. It only came to just less than 5,000 credits. He would have to think of more ways to treat Kira later – but this was all he could carry, even with Zorq’s help, for now.
They left the store with their purchases and hailed another transportation pod. If it had been hard to fit in the pod before, now it was truly a challenge. Zorq hung back, looking ready to call a second transport pod for the ride home.
“Wait,” Xeegan said. “I’ll make it work.”
He had to squish the pillow behind his neck and hold the rest of his purchases on his lap before Zorq would even venture into the vehicle. After some finagling, they were both able to fit. Finally, after a short ride – and a newly developed ache in his neck – the pod pulled up to the balcony of their family apartment, hovering while they extracted themselves from the small vehicle and unloaded the boxes.
Kira walked out onto the balcony and stared as Zorq took out the last box and passed it to Xeegan. He climbed out, and the pod whisked itself away.
“I thought I heard you get home,” she said, smiling. “Hi, Zorq. What’s all this?”
“For you,” Xeegan explained. “A pump, chocolate, a body pillow, and some other goods from the maternity store.”
Zorq made a small, happy noise of agreement.
Kira narrowed her eyes at the two of them. “This is expensive stuff,” she said. “You’ve been undercover in a warehouse lately, right? You didn’t lift all this from the storage, did you?”
Xeegan groaned. Convincing Kira that he was done with his pirate days was harder than he would have thought. Of course, the fact that he still complained about authority and visited bars in the rough parts of the city didn’t help. But that would always be a part of him – and when old friends from his pirate days had business on Inea, he didn’t mind going to meet them on their own turf.
“I know why you might think that,” he said, opening the foil of a bar of chocolate and handing it to Kira. She accepted it with an eyebrow raised, still suspicious, and broke off a small piece. “But no. That mission is actually over – Zorq and I took the distributor in this morning. We got bonuses.”
A wide smile spread across Kira’s face. “That’s great news!” she said, her mouth full of chocolate. “You both deserve that. Good job!”
Xeegan took in just how adorable she looked. She had been taking most of the week off from work now that she was visibly pregnant, and when she did go in, it was for office work. Today, she had stayed home and she was still in her pajamas and a robe. Her hair was now the longest he had seen it since he had met her, and she had it pulled up in a messy bun. Her dark eyes looked joyful and were sparkling, as she hadn’t put in the purple colored contacts he was so used to.
“It’s all for you,” he said, following her into their bedroom with his arms full of boxes. She had picked up the pillow and tossed it on the bed. Zorq trailed behind the two of them.
“About that…” she said, turning to face him. “Next time, please don’t buy me anything. It’s your bonus. You should get yourself something nice.”
He set down the boxes at the foot of the bed and frowned. “I don’t need anything. You’re the one carrying the baby. I thought it would be helpful.”
Zorq looked back and forth between the two of them, following the conversation with a slightly anxious expression on his face. The Ezak-T was so perceptive and reacted to any disagreement between them, no matter how small.
Kira laughed, diffusing the tension. “Zorq, I’m not mad at him. Xeegan, all this baby needs is two loving parents. Accessories like this are optional. You work as my body pillow, and a breast pump is convenient but I’ll be around to nurse the baby, too. Not that I’m not grateful – not at all. Of course I am, but I just want you to know that I have everything I need right here.”
She wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head against his chest.
“I’m so proud of you,” she whispered into his shirt, her warm breath sending tingles across his skin.
He put one hand on her lower back and the other against the side of her rounded stomach. He strained his hearing so he could just barely hear the baby’s heart beating. This was his favorite thing to do: holding both of them as close as he could.
Xeegan nearly jumped, surprised, when a firm kick met his hand. Kira laughed at his reaction.
“You saying hi to dad?” she said, looking down toward her pregnant belly. “Come here, Zorq, come feel.”
The Ezak-T approached them carefully, gently placing a huge palm on Kira’s middle. After a few moments, the baby kicked again. Zorq just stared down at her stomach as if he was in awe. He removed his hand and parted his jaws slightly, smiling in the unique way that his snout allowed.
“Can you believe that this little miracle is going to be with us in only three more months?” she asked, looking back up at Xeegan.
“I can’t wait,” he said. He leaned down to kiss her on the forehead and she tilted her head back to meet his lips with her own. She tasted like chocolate.
He melted into the kiss, his heart filled with a love and hope for the future that his past self would have never expected – not in his wildest dreams. He never would have known it, but in the end, it had been an Alliance agent who had stolen his pirate heart.
