“Are you sure?”

“Very sure. Now are you going to stop worrying and make love to me properly or am I going to have to do all the work myself?”

She rocked teasingly against his rigid shaft again, and he pushed aside his doubts. He bent her back over his arm, taking a sweet, tempting little nipple in his mouth, licking and sucking as she wiggled impatiently against him. He gave her other breast the same attention, feasting on her until she was trembling with need.

He slipped one hand beneath her gown, his hand traveling up her thigh until he found the swollen bud of flesh that brought her pleasure, circling it until she cried out, her body quivering.

“Please, Wraith.”

He continued to caress her with one hand as he freed his erection with the other, his frills already fluttering with anticipation.

He lifted her over him, the slick heat of her cunt teasing the head of his cock as she rocked against him. He groaned at the sensation, gripping her hips to still her. He’d been so obsessed with making sure she was ready for him he hadn’t considered his own precarious state of control.

Gritting his teeth he slowly lowered her down over him, her body stretching to accommodate the wide head of his cock before finally taking him inside. Her wet heat enveloped him, the pressure and friction drawing a guttural groan from his throat as his frills caressed her.

“Oh, god, yes,” she moaned, rising up to sink back down again, taking him deeper.

He nearly lost control right then, but he managed to restrain himself and let her ride him, impaling her body on his cock again and again, her head thrown back, her cheeks flushed with pleasure. His muscles trembled with the effort of remaining still, of watching her pleasure herself with his body.

He’d never seen anything as beautiful as she was at this moment. Her eyes were closed, her lips parted, her hair a wild cloud around her. His heart raced as emotion washed over him, more intense than any physical pleasure could be.

She cried out as her climax took her, her channel convulsing around his cock, and all hope of control vanished. He surrendered to the hunger, pulling her down over him as he thrust upwards into her, faster and faster until he shuddered, his release sweeping over him in long, shuddering waves, shaking him to the core, and leaving him panting and utterly sated.

She collapsed against him, and he wrapped his arms around her, holding her close.

“I love you,” he whispered.

“I love you too.”

She sounded as dazed and happy as he felt, and he tightened his grip as he gazed out at the vast expanse of stars. A sense of peace washed over him, unlike anything he’d ever experienced before. The warmth of her body against his, the gentle rhythm of her breathing - it all felt so right, so perfect.

The sudden chime of an incoming call broke through the tranquil moment. He winced as he recognized the source of the call, remembering his promise to Drax. He reluctantly reached for the communication panel, bracing himself for an immediate assignment.

To his surprise, the trader’s gruff voice held a note of concern. “Did you find your mate?”

Mate. The word sent an unexpected thrill through his body. He tightened his hold on her, savoring the feeling.

“Yes,” he said quietly. “I am in your debt.”

Drax grunted, a hint of amusement in his tone.

“Yes. But I think I will hold that debt in reserve until it is needed.”

With that, the communication ended. He looked down at her, her eyes warm and loving, still stunned that she had changed his world so completely.

“What shall we do now, my love?” he asked softly.

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Willow’s heart skipped a beat at Wraith’s question. His purple eyes, usually so guarded, were warm and loving. She reached out, tracing the contours of his face with her fingertips.

“Is there a choice?” she asked softly. “I thought you had a contract to take me to Farlain - and you never break a contract.”

He shook his head, his long hair brushing softly against her skin.

“Your happiness is more important to me,” he said, his voice low and intense. “We can go anywhere you want.”

For a moment she thought of Earth, but Wraith, the wounded, complex male who’d stolen her heart, wouldn’t be welcome there, let alone Sooni and Malacar, her new little family, and she dismissed the idea without regret.
