Fucking turned on.
Why did that make her…not grossed out?
Because, Cleo, her mind helpfully answered, your vagina has had a year-long no-dickfest.
Now it wanted backstage tickets to meet the lead and his two drummers.
She was sure of it.
His hard cock was pressing into her and they both knew she could feel it because his expression suddenly turned sheepish.
Even in the cool water, it felt warm against her and something deep inside her ached.
She opened her mouth to say something. Words along the appropriate lines communicating disgust at the literal alien dick pressing into her and of how wrong it was for him to have it against her…but no words came.
She could only open her mouth and close it again.
Without a word, Sohut…Grout treaded to the edge of the pool, lifted her, and set her down on the ground.
Water sluiced off him as he exited the rock pool to stand beside her and Cleo kept her gaze averted, refusing to look at what she knew was there.
When strong hands surrounded her and lifted her once more, a yelp left her lips.
“What are you do—” But he only set her back against the rock wall where she’d been sitting before.
Fuck.
She should be annoyed. Angry. Livid.
Yet, none of those emotions were there.
All she could feel was a tingling in her lady parts and an excitement building in her chest that she hadn’t felt in a long, long time.
He was male.
So male.
And now, because of the ache building in her core, she was painfully aware of it.
She watched as he stretched and took off his wet shirt, hanging it over a bunch of vines in the corner, and a shiver went down her body.
His attention turned to her and she averted her gaze again, her eyes falling to her legs and that made her inhale a sharp gasp.
The mud…
Her camouflage.
It was gone.
Thin streaks of dirt were now on her skin, which had just been fully hidden by a healthy covering of mud.
Raising her arms, her eyes widened.
It was all gone.
When her wide gaze fell on the alien, she found he was still looking at her in that strange way he had been in the water.
Fuck.
