Page 52 of The Alien's Runaway Bride

But Raelee was already shaking her head. “Not a chance. You’re stuck with me, Your Highness.”

Vex’s laugh, though weak, was full of genuine joy. “I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to hear you say that.”

“There’s just one thing I don’t understand still.”

“What?”

“How did you know where I was when we were on Earth? I mean our meeting was clearly not a coincidence. Even with me wearing a wig and under an assumed name, you knew it was me right?”

He nodded and picked up her hand, kissing her ring finger. She glanced at the beautiful ring she’d had been wearing since the day she runaway and gasped. “The ring?”

He grinned. “It’s got an advanced GPS tracking. I always know where you are.”

She laughed and slapped his arm playfully. “Not fair! I never stood a chance.”

He met her gaze with so much love it took her breath away. “No, my princess, I never stood a chance.”

She had come to Tharvis as a reluctant bride, determined to maintain her independence at all costs. But now she could freely admit she was a woman completely in love.

Raelee leaned down and kissed him. Vex wrapped his arms around her and pulled her onto the bed with him, deepening the kiss. He pushed his tongue into her mouth and she tangled hers with it. Tingles of desire skittered over her skin and a burning need whirled in her core.

As they kissed deeply, Raelee felt his warm, strong hands slide underneath her shirt and wrap around her waist, pulling her body against his. She moaned into the kiss as he gently massaged her back.

She pulled at his clothes, eager to feel his skin against hers once more. They panted softly as their lips parted, their chestsheaving with ragged breaths. He slipped her shirt over her head and tossed it onto the floor, exposing her bare skin to the cool air of the room.

He kissed her lips, then her chin, and then trailed kisses down her neck and collarbone while holding onto one breast gently between two fingers, rolling the hardened nipple between them. She squirmed under him, needing more contact but also savoring this slow seduction. Her hips rocked involuntarily against his hard cock pressing against his pants when he took one wet nipple into his mouth, suckling on it gently while the other hand found its way lower to tease at the lace of her panties.

Raelee gasped as he finally brushed his fingers against her wet entrance, causing a jolt of pleasure to shoot through her core.

“Oh God,” she whispered, biting her lip to keep from crying out too loudly. His finger moved in and out of her slowly, tormenting but also bringing her immense pleasure she never knew existed.

As his fingers pushed deeper, she arched her back and moaned into his touch, gripping the sheets beneath her. She could feel him smirk against the soft skin of her neck as he breached her tight entrance with another finger, stretching her slowly but surely. A shudder ran through her in response.

“You’re so wet,” he whispered against her skin, his voice low and rough with desire.

The feeling of his fingers sliding in and out of her pussy combined with the sucking on her nipple was driving her crazy. She writhed under him, wanting more.

“Vex,” she panted, not daring to ask for anything too much yet.

He pulled away from her breast reluctantly, the cool air of the room making it tingle where his warm mouth had been. Then he stood up and removed his underwear, revealing a hard cock thatwas already half-hard. Raelee’s mouth watered as she looked at it, stroking herself hastily, aching for him to be inside of her.

He crawled back onto the bed, kneeling between her legs as he positioned himself at her entrance. She whimpered when she felt him press against her slick folds, and she spread herself wider to let him in. He leaned in to capture one of her nipples again in his mouth while sliding inside of her slowly but surely, filling her completely.

She cried out in pleasure at the sensation of being stretched by him, clutching at his shoulders desperately as he began to thrust up into her slowly but surely.

Raelee’s fingers dug into Vex’s shoulders as their pace increased; she felt herself getting closer to orgasm with every thrust of his hips. Sparks of pleasure raced through her body. She arched under him desperately for more friction on an especially sensitive spot just inside of her as they reached their release at the same time.

“I love you,” Vex said as he settled beside her on the bed.

“I love you, too.” Raelee snuggled into him, never wanting to let him go.

“Garek,” Vexor managed, his voice rough. “Report.”

His friend’s posture straightened, but the amusement didn’t leave his eyes. “The situation with the warrior sect is under control for now. Your brothers have taken charge of the immediate security concerns. The alliance remains intact, though there will be much to discuss in the coming days.”

Vexor nodded, relief washing over him. At least one weight had been lifted from his shoulders. “And Raelee? Her sisters?”
