“We have to be quiet, Kahn. I don’t want to wake Alex,” she breathed. How she managed to form that thought was beyond her. She could hardly think of anything other than the talented mouth currently moving over her own.

He chuckled and it warmed Anna’s heart to know she had driven the desolation from him by just accepting him once more. “I don’t think I’m the one you need to silence,tarae. I seem to remember you making quite a bit of noise the last time.”

“Did I? I thought it was you bellowing when you filled my cunt with your cream.” She knew what the crudeness of her words did to him. She could feel the lust rise within him, within herself.

“Perhaps we should try it again.” His voice was a growl. “See who screams as she gets pounded with my cock.”

That did it. Anna knew she needed him inside her, riding her, taking her body any way he saw fit. The recent emotional upheaval needed release, and the man she loved was going to provide it in spades.

He palmed her ass and lifted her until she instinctively wrapped her legs around him. She rubbed her cunt against his heavy erection and felt his muscles tense as he suckled her neck. As he lifted her just a little higher, probed her slick opening with the head of his cock, she found his mouth with hers.

Instead of the quick entrance she expected, Kahn slipped just inside, halting her movements with his strong grip on her buttocks. He moved his kisses to her breasts and sucked one nipple into his mouth. The water supporting her as much as possible, Anna let her head fall back.

Kahn began to increase the pressure of his mouth on her nipple. Still he wouldn’t let her ride him as she wanted to. He held her against his body so that she was unable to get more of him inside her no matter what she tried. Her breast ached and throbbed where his mouth was attached, making her pussy spasm around his cock. Her juices mingled with the water lapping around them. Her clit pulsed in time with her heart, and she could feel her impending orgasm just out of reach.

“Please, Kahn. I need you inside me,” she pleaded. “Give me more of you. All of you.”

Kahn growled as he thrust into her. The emotions swirling inside him were chaotic. She felt his need to be a gentle lover this time warring with his need to claim her as his, to dominate his mate into accepting him. He didn’t just need her body, but her. All of her. Everything that was her.

“What do you want?” It was more demand than question. “What will it take to get you to come?”

“You,” she gasped. “Your cock. Ramming into me. I need your cock, Kahn.” She could only whimper now. She was coming apart inside. Still he didn’t move more than a fraction of the pace she needed. The teasing only served to drive Anna higher and higher without ever reaching the pinnacle.

“Look at me, Anna,” Kahn said, halting all movement now.

She didn’t want to meet his gaze. Though she knew he needed her, wanted her, she also knew there was a reason he thought his people wouldn’t accept her. She knew she shouldn’t want him, knew his people probably wanted him to marry someone befitting their future king -- one of them. But she couldn’t get enough of this man. God help her, she loved him with all that she was.

“Anna.” His voice was gentle yet gruff with emotion and lust. When she finally did look at him, it was through a haze of shame and desire mingled with love and so many emotions she couldn’t name them all. His piercing eyes bored into her soul and he paused a moment before he spoke.

“You do not fully understand the bond between us,tarae. It cannot be denied by you because you think I believe you unsuitable for me, and I cannot deny it simply because my people might not want their future king mated to an off-worlder. I swear to you by everything that I am, I am your mate and Alex’s surrogate father first. I’ll be a king second. I’ll do my duty to my people, but my family will always come first from this moment forward.”

“And if your people don’t accept me? If you have to choose between your people and me and Alex?” Anna had never been so unsure of herself in her life.

“Then we will leave. We will build a life together with love, and Alex will know that we love him and each other.”

Anna knew in her heart that Kahn was telling her the truth as he saw it. So she simply clung to that and hoped it would be enough. “Make love to me, Kahn,” she whispered.

And he did.

The slow, even thrust of his hips began again. The slick, gliding sensation of their bodies melding beneath the water was heady indeed. It didn’t take long before Anna was as frenzied as she had been earlier, and she wrapped her legs around his waist, locking her ankles.

She ground her pussy onto his cock as she twisted her hips, threw her head back and cried out. Kahn’s grip on her ass tightened and his nostrils flared with his effort. He released one cheek of her buttocks to run a finger down the seam and gently delve into her rear entrance. When he pushed past the tiny ring of muscle, Anna only suppressed her scream by biting his shoulder. The sensation was almost overwhelming in its pleasure. When he added the second, then the third finger, she had had all she could take.

“Oh my God. Kahn!” She exploded onto his cock, his fingers up her ass. Never had she felt so full. His grunts came with every stroke as he fucked her with a fever she’d never known existed, the corded muscles, tendons and veins of his face, neck and arms straining his skin. Just as her own climax was ebbing, he gave one mighty thrust and her name on his lips made a guttural, primitive sound in his own passion.

They clung to each other, the water rocking their bodies gently as if to soothe and relax them. Kahn spoke first.

“You are my life, my sweet Anna. Give me your trust and I promise I will not disappoint you again. Give me your heart and I’ll treasure it always.”

Anna stiffened. “You’ve got to give me time, Kahn. I promise to try to trust you, but it’s not just me now. I can’t afford to stumble into another situation like before. Do you understand?”

“You wouldn’t be a good mother if you didn’t take that into consideration. Of course I’ll give you time.” He kissed her forehead. “You will be asked to testify at the trial tomorrow. Will you at least trust me to see you safely there? It wouldn’t surprise me if Mikkril tried to hurt you before you can speak out against him. His life is on the line, after all.”

Anna looked at him, startled. “I never thought of that. Alex will be the most vulnerable. Since I’m obviously no match for a Gothe’maran warrior.” She thought for a minute. “I’m not thrilled about this. We have a long way to go, Kahn, and since I don’t have much of a choice, I know we’ll be safer with you than anyone else.” When he looked a bit crestfallen, she sighed. “I’m sorry if I sound harsh, but taking chances with my son’s life is not the way I’d choose to test how much I can trust you. From my viewpoint, I simply have no alternative. I may have issues with you, but you’re the only Gothe’maran I believe actually cares if we get there alive or not.”

Anna searched deep down for a gut feeling to tell her what she should do. “I think I do trust you. Even though things got a little out of hand when you brought me to Alex, I know you didn’t expect me to pick a fight.” Needing to lighten the mood a little, she said, “I caught you off guard when I slugged your father, didn’t I?”

Kahn groaned. “Don’t remind me. You would have been killed if I hadn’t intervened. I don’t think anyone in our whole history has ever hit the king before.”
