Page 35 of Kazzon's Human Bride
He added soap to the water and finally stood up, then sank into the large tub with his bride. He didn’t release her even after they entered the water, the need to have her close clutched at him.
He thought of the upcoming stop on Xollnax and a spasm of worry tightened in his gut. Frustration built inside him that he had no choice but to stop on the planet. He couldn’t disobey a direct order from a Tarrkuan official, nor could he leave a fellow ambassador stranded on a dangerous world with a damaged ship.
He hoped the stop was a quick one and that nothing bad happened. Above all, he wished to keep Caylee safe. With this thought in mind, he determined that he would spend the upcoming days fortifying theCorrannelia’sshields, as well as ensuring extra security protocols were in place.
He would send a message ahead to Ambassador Stonnas, requesting the diplomat and his crewmembers be waiting on the landing platform when Kazzon arrived. Perhaps it would not be necessary to leave theCorranneliaat all.
This plan helped him relax somewhat, but he would still be busy during the next few days. When it came to the safety of his bride, he would never be too careful.
“What are you thinking about?” Caylee peered at him, a fatigued but curious glint in her pretty blue eyes. “You, um, look as though you’re a million miles away right now.”
He straightened and stared down at her, debating whether or not to inform her of his apprehension over the trip to Xollnax. Not wishing to cause her worry, he said, “I was just thinking about the days to come. I have much work to complete before we reach planet Xollnax.”
“What kind of work?”
“I cannot tell you everything about my job as an ambassador, little human,” he said, adding a note of warning to his voice.
To his relief, she didn’t seem to take offense. Instead, she grinned at him and snuggled deeper into his arms. “Very well, keep your secrets,Xerr. I won’t pry, but I hope I’ll still be permitted to roam the corridors of theCorrannelia. As you know,I like to walk for exercise.”
“Yes, little human, you may walk the corridors. Just stay off the bridge and out of the engineering room.” Most of the work he needed to complete would be done in those two locations. “Though we have conversed in English this entire time, I assume you know how to speak and read Tarrkuan. You will see signs warning unauthorized personnel to stay off the bridge and out of engineering.”
“Yes, I can speak all twelve dialects of Tarrkuan,” she replied, speaking in his tongue, using the most common dialect spoken in Ashorr, the capital city of Kazzon’s planet.
“I am glad to hear it,” he said, switching back to English.
He reached for a washcloth and dipped it in the water. His cock thickened underneath her bottom, and he watched as her nipples hardened to stiff peaks while she shifted slightly on his lap. Her long hair brushed over his shoulders, tickling him. Settling her deeper into the tub, right between his spread legs, he began washing her, dragging the soapy cloth up and down her slender arms.
“Mm. This feels nice. Thank you,Xerr.”
“It’s my pleasure,” he murmured directly into her ear.
Once he finished with her arms, he worked the cloth over her full breasts, even pausing to tease her nipples with quick pinches that made her gasp. Her legs came next, and he took a particular enjoyment in running the cloth over her inner thighs, cleansing her of the sticky trails left by his seed.
Tender regard for Caylee swelled within him. She relaxed in his arms, allowing him to clean her all over, though she blushed furiously when he dragged the cloth through her nether folds.
After he finished tending to her, he grabbed a fresh cloth and quickly cleansed himself, then he drained the bathtub and turned on the multiple showerheads above them, which caused a gentle patter of warm water to cascade over their bodies.
Caylee sighed and placed her hands on the wall, a look of bliss crossing her face. He noticed a slight tremor in her legs, evidence that she was still weakened in the aftermath of their carnal activities. He kept an eye on her as they both rinsed off, ready to grab onto her and steady her if she happened to slip.
He turned the water off and reached for a large warm towel, which he immediately wrapped around his bride. She hugged the towel to herself and shot him a sweet look of gratitude. After wrapping himself in his own towel, he lifted her from the tub and carried her back to the bedroom.
They dressed in silence, though she occasionally shot him shy glances that made him want to order her to kneel before him and suck his cock all over again. Tonight, he decided. He would spend the day working with his guards on the security protocols on his ship, then a night loving Caylee would be his reward.
He couldn’tfluxxingwait.
Chapter 26
The screenon the video comm glowed blue and the control panel glimmered under Caylee’s fingers while she typed in the password Kazzon had taught her, as well as the proper video comm number. She braced herself, waiting to see if the call to her parents’ home would be answered. She hadn’t spoken to her family since the morning she’d said her goodbyes to them.
She counted the days in her head. About a week and a half ago. That was how long she’d been married to Kazzon, though time seemed to move slower on his ship. If she didn’t make a point of adding another day to her mental tally each morning when she awoke, she would’ve guessed a full month had passed since her marriage to Kazzon and her departure from Earth.
Wilson’s face suddenly filled the screen. When he shot her a warm smile, she almost started crying. He looked happy, the way she remembered him as a little boy, and she wondered what had occurred during her absence.
“Caylee!” He straightened in his chair and leaned forward. “I didn’t recognize the comm number you were calling from and almost didn’t answer. I’m glad I did though. It’s nice to see you.”
She returned his grin, joy filling her. Whatever the cause for his good mood, she was grateful for it. “Hey, Wilson. It’s nice to see you too. What’s been going on? You look happier than I’ve seen you in years.”
“I skipped another grade,” he said, “which means I’ll graduate next month.”
