Rovos
Istand in the cleanser, my stiff cock clenched in my fist as I jerk off to the memory of Annah coming against my tongue that plays on a loop behind my lids. Her smell is still in my nose, making my mouth water. The look on her face when I wrung orgasm after orgasm from her makes my cock harden even more.
Gnashing my teeth, I tighten my grip. What was I thinking? I practically attacked her!
And she loved every second.
Which makes no difference because I had no business touching her. At least I had the presence of mind to stop when she admitted she was untried.
Ah, but she would have given that too, with hardly any coercion at all.
The rhythmic slapping of flesh on flesh fills the small cubicle. The sonic cleanser is nearing the end of its cycle. Again. With a snarl, I slam my palm against the controls, resetting it for a third time.
A vision of Annah, with her knees splayed and her mouth open, moaning her pleasure, floats before my eyes. Squeezing my eyes shut, I lean against the stall, and, with a roar, my seed lashes the wall. I wish it was Annah’s cunt. Or her breasts. The thought of marking her has my cock growing hard in my fist once more.Fuck!
The need to plunge inside her. To spend myself deep between her thighs. The thought of being her first male has my hips surging into my fist again. But it’s the risk of getting her pregnant that gave me the power to pull away from her. Even though the thought of her swollen with my kit has my cock twitching in my grip.
Which is exactly why I pulled away.
Why I need to get her off this ship before I do something I can’t take back.
And since I can’t return her to her home planet, I need to consider Igid’s suggestion to take her someplace else. Somewhere she’ll be safe from slavers and from me.
Gods, but her smell… My hand runs up and down my length once again. I don’t understand what it is about her that has me so unhinged. Of course, there is her smell, which in and of itself calls to me. But even before I caught my first whiff of her, I’ve wanted her since that first moment I laid eyes on her. The way her strange blue eyes sparkled through the curtain of her unwashed hair when she was huddled at the back of her cage. The way she watched me, not realizing I had already noticed her, and then the way she held my gaze after, seemingly without fear.
I haven’t been able to get her out of my head since. If she stays much longer, I worry that I won’t be able to let her go. And that would be a catastrophic decision for the both of us.
Leaning against the cleanser wall, my chest is pumping in time with my fist. I can’t keep my thoughts from the human. From Annah. From the moment I first saw her, she’s had me utterly captivated.
But what is it about her? Besides her bravery and her delicious scent?
Most species find Vesens impetuous. So having this meek creature holding my stare was surprising. And later, when she trembled in my arms, her mind overburdened by everything she’d been through, it honored me that my Annah would trust me enough to let herself fall apart.
An orgasm licks up my spine, and my balls tighten just before I come again.
As soon as I’m finished, I shut off the cleanser and burst out of the door before I can shame myself again. Then I quickly dress in what I was wearing earlier, immediately regretting not bringing a change of clothes with me because her scent lingers on the fabric. Bringing my shirt to my nose I inhale deeply.Vittu!
Pulling my shirt back over my head, I ball it up with a snarl before throwing it across the room and storming out of the shared cleanser into the closet-sized bunk I’ve been staying in since giving Annah my quarters. The narrow cot is barely large enough to encompass my size, but I fold myself into the small space anyway.
Taking my comm out of my pocket, I hail Sone. Almost at once, his hologram appears in the air before me.
“Rovos, how are things on theShade?” the Markatti asks from where he’s sitting at the controls of the Xar’ads’ ship. Sone is probably the best pilot I’ve ever had the privilege of flying with. Better even than Igid. Although I’d never admit that to her. Not if I wanted to continue to have full use of both my arms.
“Everything is fine here. Have you off-loaded your cargo yet?”
“We should reach the Zoka station in another span.” Sone glances over his shoulder before looking back at me with a wide grin spread across his face. “It seems the Xar’ads have several bounties out on them, so I suspect we’ll make at least double what we were originally expecting.”
What good fortune! We were expecting a good sum of credits to begin with. “I trust you’ll contrive the best price. However, I have an additional favor to ask you.”
“Anything you need, Rovos.”
“I need you to try to find that pre-federation planet calledEarth,”I tell him. “The Xar’ads must have saved the coordinates somewhere before they wiped their databases. Maybe Treto can find a message they sent out with it. Or maybe someone on Zoka might have heard of it.”
Sone scratched at the side of his neck and grimaced. “We searched through every scrap of data we could find with no luck.” His narrow shoulders lift in a shrug. “Maybe we’ll have better luck on Zoka, but I can’t promise you anything.”
“See what you can come up with. That’s all I can ask.”
“Hey, Treto,” Sone shouts, twisting around to where Treto is sitting at another control station. “Rovos still wants us to find that pre-fed-class planet calledEarth.Think you can squeeze a little more data from the wiped memory?”
