The squad’s. Not mine. That was as clear as a Sirian crystal.
“That’s right,” Kroktl replied, his voice dripping with satisfaction. “I knew the moment I caught her scent on the air that she was special. You’ve got a lot of fucking nerve coming back after what you did to Lohr. You’ve got a lot to answer to, especially why you fucking stranded us here in the first place. But the most pressing question I have is why the fuck you thought it was a good idea to take my fucking mate.”
Unfamiliar emotion made my teeth clash. “I took her to protect her. You were doing a shit job.”
Snryx—our mild-mannered medic—twisted his head around so hard and fast to glare at me that his implements rattled about his head. “You almost killed her! From the moment you swallowed her, you put her in danger.”
“The likelihood of her contracting bacteria from inside your mouth was fifty-two percent even if you didn’t nick her with a tooth,” Lohr’s fangs dropped down enough to give him a lisp. “However, the probability that you would indeed cut her open with those razor-sharp teeth was ninety-nine point-eighty-seven percent.”
Rizan muttered, “Fucking moron.”
“Don’t even get me started on her other injuries, or how weakened and precarious her health is now,” Snryx growled, his tone severe.
My squad—my subordinates—lecturing me like I was a fucking newly hatched youngling without the sense to feed myself. Before Earth, it wouldn’t have even occurred to them to question me or follow me against my orders, let alone stand up to me.
Kroktl didn’t say a word. He didn’t have to.
And the worst part?
They’re fucking right.
“I had no idea humans were so fucking hard to take care of, alright? I fucked up. Yeah. But the nest you found was laughable. I knew another squad would be deployed. I had to get her out of there. I had the perfect nest that could hide her even from the squad. If she hadn’t fucking disappeared down the river, you never would have found her, Red.”
“Bullshit,” Kroktl said without any inflection in his voice. His eyes burned like lasers, searing with intensity. “We were here, weren’t we? And thank the fucking stars that we were able to find her before she went over that waterfall and busted her delicate body into a thousand pieces.”
“Wait, wait, wait.” The drowned little rat of a human stiffened in his arms and twisted her head around to shoot a venomous look at me. “I didn’t fucking ask to be locked in a tiny, dark cave with disgusting MREs and a couple of Tylenol after getting fucking swallowed by a fucking Tyrannosaurus Rex!”
Keeping eye contact with me, Kroktl asked, “Is she safe to move now, Sn?”
“She’s stable.” Snryx disconnected the last of his implements from the human. “You’re doing more for her healing now than I am.”
Locking her against him, Kroktl stood, still deeply seated inside her. She moaned, a broken, soft, fragile sound that made every predator instinct in me perk with interest. I couldn’t help but stare. Devouring her with my eyes. The way she clung to him despite her injuries. So fucking small against his bulk. She’d managed to not only escape but also survive.
I’d wondered how he would even fit inside her. Now I had my answer. Evidently he fit fucking fine, stretching her pussy wide. Pearly green cum coated her flesh, dripping down her thighs. Her head lolled, her eyelids fluttering, her lips parted on another guttural moan of pleasure. Not pain. He wasn’t splitting her in half. Well, he was, but not to the point of hurting her.
Kroktl’s voice rumbled a deep bass. “I want to see this perfect nest.”
He still held my gaze. Fearlessly.
Not in direct challenge. He knew I was alpha. He knew I could kill him if I decided to eliminate him.
He simply didn’t fucking care any longer.

Natalie madedelicious little mewls of pleasure with every step I took, even though I tried my best not to jostle her. I didn’t know if her health could take a massive climax right now, but as long as Snryx wasn’t concerned, I was keeping my dick planted in her as deeply as I could. Especially as long as our alpha was around.
:You’re not harming her in any way,:Snryx confirmed.:Your semen is actually healing her from the inside out, and pleasure endorphins will speed her recovery as well.:
Her pussy clenched down on me, pulsing rhythmically in release. Her mouth roamed my chest, her teeth digging in playfully.Oh yeah, baby. As soon as we get to a safe place…
I sighed, forgetting that she couldn’t hear my thoughts on the grid.
Rizan cackled.:Damn. I thought you were talking to me.:
Even Lohr cracked a grin.:Me too. My fucking tongue dropped, ready for action.:
