I guide my cock towards her entrance, spread her swollen lips with my tail and drive into her. My left-hand lands on the window, and I grab hers, while my right hand grabs her hip. We have not mated in this position yet so I start out gently, biting her shoulder, her neck and up to her earlobe.

“Are you okay, my mate?” I whisper into her ear, she nods enthusiastically.

“More than okay, now let go, D’Var. I can take it. I won’t break, I won’t get scared. I know it’s you and I want you more than ever.”

“Open your eyes...” I command, knowing by the way she gasps that she understands why I wanted to take her like this. The nebula is spread out before us, blue and pink clouds are close in the distance, we see the pulsing magenta of the spark.

“This is where stars are born, my mate. Where the future is made.” I thrust into her. “You are my future, my everything.”

Her walls start fluttering again and I let go completely. I fuck her like she wants to be fucked: hard and fast, making me cum like a youngling within a couple of thrusts. I do not think she minds, because when my cum is painting her inner walls, they contract and milk me for all my seed.

We are both panting and covered in sweat. I let go of her hip and bring my hand towards her, weaving our fingers together. When I kiss her neck she turns her head, offering me her lips, which I take in a hungry kiss.

“That. Was. Amazing,” L’Ren pants when we break the kiss. I smile against her skin.

“It definitely was,” I confirm. I feel my cock soften and I gently pull out of my mate's sweet cunt.

She sighs turning around. She puts her arms around my neck and kisses me.

“I…” she begins, but then she falters. “I think we need to clean up before we go to bed.” I smile, but I don’t think that’s what she wanted to say at first...

“We can take a bath,” I offer and she squeals in delight.

“Yes!! Let’s do that!” I smile stepping away from her.

There she stands, in all her naked glory, flushed and covered in a sheen of sweat. My cum dripping down her legs while behind her are the colors of the nebula. I want to tell her that I love her, and I almost do, but then I remind myself that I am not worthy. First the head of her enemy, then she can give me her love in return. So, I smile telling her how gorgeous she looks with my cum dripping, which makes her scold me again, breaking the weight of this moment.

We walk towards the bathroom together, and I hand her a rag to clean up a little bit while I start the bath. I see her wriggling which is my cue to give her a little privacy. I give her a little kiss on her cheek, before I walk towards the door.

“I will put out some clean clothes for us, will you let me know when I can come back in again?” She smiles and nods, as I walk away.

I am baffled by a pang of hurt the minute the door slides shut behind me. If it hurts this much to be in a different room than my mate, how bad will it be when we leave tomorrow to hunt Yalix down. I sigh, this reminds me I have to check in with T’Rak about my plan.

“T’Rak, captain, can I talk to you?” I ask him through our link.

“Speak.” Is his immediate response.

“I need to hunt down Yalix. I love my L’Ren, but I am not worthy of her love if I do not bring her the head of her tormentor. I cannot take her on this journey, but I do not want to leave her unprotected. There is nobody else I would trust with the safety of my mate T’Rak. Will you stay and protect her? You are the fiercest of our warriors and a good male. I know I am asking a lot of you, but.”

“I will stay, my friend,” he interrupts me. “I understand. Take O’Rec with you, you cannot go alone.”

“Thank you, my friend. I am humbled and grateful beyond measure. I will take O’Rec.”

With that conversation closed down I feel L’Rens tug.

“Our bath is ready for you.”

I smile pushing aside all thoughts about leaving. I will tell her tomorrow. After she has seen the garden, it will help ease her worries, I think.

CHAPTER 24

Lauren

Something is up with D’Var. He seems distant. Yesterday evening was so intimate on so many different levels, but today we seem to have lost the deep connection we had yesterday. I have no idea why. It started the minute I woke up alone in bed. Alone. I was so confused; I have not woken up alone since I met D’Var, the lack of warmth from his body gave me chills all over. And I do not like being cold at all.

Turned out he was already in the Command Center, deep in conversation with T’Rak and O’Rec. The conversation was a silent one and it halted entirely when I entered. I can tell you, if I wasn’t feeling so out of sorts, the sight of these three big Alien males looking guilty would have been comical, but it only added to my unease.

After breakfast we are meeting up with Kepti, so she can show us around the garden. We walk in silence through The Ring, a sense of unease clawing around my heart.
