“What the hell,” I muttered softly, in a trance of sorts when I felt the head of his cock notch at my entrance.
Deeply confused and yet so ridiculously content, I rocked forward, urging Vahko on. He moved his thigh under me, helping to support my weight as he eased his way in.
And… ok, I guess that was as good a time as any to remember I hadn’t slept with anyone since I was a stupid fifteen-year-old rebel with parent issues. Everything since then had been through a simulator and holy shit was it different. I sucked in a sharp breath when I felt the first pinch of pain rack my insides. What was I thinking? And better yet, why wasn’t I telling Vahko to stop?
Truth was, I couldn’t. I still wanted him, pain or no pain. Alien or not. My sex life was gathering dust until him. I grabbed hold of him, my hands hooking around the back of his neck and tangling in his braids. He pushed on and I felt my nails bite into his skin. Groaning, he planted his hands on the wall on either side of me and flashed those small fangs in his mouth.
“Sjek, Innifer,” he grunted. “You’re tight.”
“It’s ok.”
“I can stop.”
“Can you?”
His face looked strained. If I made him stop, I suspected we’d both be in greater agony.
“Don’t stop,” I said. “I want this. I don’t know why, but I do.”
“It is the surge,” he said. “But it doesn’t usually feel this way.”
I didn’t know what the hell that meant, but I didn’t have time to think about it. His tone suggested he was going to try and pull from me, but then he thrust forward with a hiss like his body wasn’t listening to him. Another wave of pain burned in my core as he stretched me and I whimpered, but there was no way I wanted him to stop. I choked back my voice as he pushed deeper and when he was fully seated inside me, everything felt strangely right. There were tears in my eyes and they were not from the discomfort. Something had planted itself in my soul and it was lighting up with brilliant awareness now that Vahko and I were locked together.
I pulled him close, feeling as if he would never be close enough.
“Why does this seem so right?” I whispered into his ear.
He slowly wrapped an arm around me, his lips moving against my bare neck as he spoke.
“I really don’t know,” he answered, pulling out of me slowly and then pushing back in. “But you feel so good.”
I trembled at the feel of him. All the strange textures of his cock seemed to stroke all the right places and when he was inside me again, all of my other worries dissolved. It was more real than anything I’d ever known and not because it was outside a simulator. Something about Vahko was perfect. New. Exciting. And I couldn’t help the voice in my head saying he wasmine.
I didn’t believe in soulmates, but I believed people could be right for each other. And Vahko just seemed right.
Every time he thrust into me, my heart leapt out of my chest. I held him with my legs, my heels pressed into the backs of his thighs. I could feel every movement of every muscle as he claimed me. When he kissed the side of my neck, his warmth turned to heat. It was a heat like fire and turned my blood to lava. My nails scored the flesh of his back and it only encouraged him to keep going. He growled against my shoulder, thrusting into me with more vigor. Every time, I felt like he touched me deeper. Claimed more of me.
“Yes,” I panted, over and over telling him I wanted it. All of it. “Yes, Vahko. Please.”
He drew back his head to look at me, clearing strands of my hair away from my face as he rocked his hips.
“This shouldn’t be happening,” he muttered.
“What?”
“I shouldn’t feel like this.”
The look on his face turned to one of regret. He seemed almost sad, like what we were doing was causing him grief, but then he kept his pace, thrusting with force like he couldn’t get enough. Confusion tapped at my brain again, but I didn’t care. I could be confused when it was done and my soul stopped begging for it.
“I don’t care about any of it right now,” I said, my fingers dragging down his arm. “I just care about this moment. Let’s just care about this moment and nothing else, yeah?”
Vahko moaned, his nostrils flaring again as he took me in another ravenous kiss. It was suffocating in the best of ways. His hand slipped around my neck, squeezing lightly as he pounded into me again and again.
That was the moment everything started to go dark around me. Not like I was passing out, but like nothing else in the world mattered. I felt my core swelling with pleasure and my body shook at the suspense. I bit down on Vahko’s lip and he snarled, driving himself on like he was in the same tiny world that I was. A world where all we had was each other and the building rapture threatening to explode between us.
“I want you,” Vahko rasped against my lips. Then he said a few things in his own language.
Those words made my body seize, whether I understood them or not. Something deep inside me was unraveling and I was losing the reins. I let out a choked cry as pleasure detonated in my stomach and burst through every vein straight to my toes and to my fingertips. I could barely breathe let alone speak.
