And liberating.

Fuck it.

She wanted Nythian. Sooner or later, he would come to her, and she wasn’t going to deny him.

She got into the pod. Closed her eyes. Pulled the sheets over her body and drifted…

You’re safe now.

She entered a trancelike state, letting silent images flit across the dark screen of her mind. Mostly, she thought about him.

How did a being like him even exist?

She didn’t know how long she remained in that state for. She drifted in and out of sleep, through dreams, across memories.

“Alexis.” When his deep voice finally reached her ears, it sent a ripple right down her spine and into her pussy, which began to throb.

Am I dreaming? She didn’t dare open her eyes.

She was delirious again. Had to be.

The sound of his voice drove her wild.

Her clit throbbed with a tender ache, and she was overcome with the urge to touch herself, to relieve the pressure like she’d done so many times before.

Instead, she clenched her teeth and made a fist, not wanting to dilute the intensity of her need.

She didn’t want anyone to touch her but him.

“Alexis,” he said again, and his voice was slightly distant, slightly muffled. Instinctively, she knew he wasn’t in the room with her. There must be some sort of intercom that was allowing them to talk like this. Why not? This Kordolian ship seemed to have everything.

“What are you doing?”

“May I come in?”

“What? You’re actually asking my permission? This is, uh, different. Am I not your prisoner anymore?”

“It is different,” he rumbled, and her arousal kicked into overdrive. “So? Is that a yes?” He sounded mildly amused.

“Yes, Nythian,” she said, surprised at how calm she sounded. “Not that there’s any point in asking. You were going to let yourself in anyway, weren’t you? Uh, Enki’s…”

“Already gone. There is nobody else within earshot. Only me. We are completely alone.”

Alone.

With a big, powerful Kordolian male.

“Ahh…” She curled into the fetal position, biting her lower lip as her body began to tremble. That’s how strong her need for him was right now.

She’d never felt this fucking horny before. Never wanted another person so badly. Never been so obsessed and excited and apprehensive, all at the same time.

She didn’t think it was possible to feel this way.

“Alexis.” He said her name again, and this time, his words feathered along her cheek. He’s here! A pleasant shiver ran down her spine. So fast. She hadn’t even heard the doors open. “What glorious otherverse have you fallen out of, sweet human?” His voice was a deep, rumbling purr that radiated through every fiber of her being. “I have never seen a creature as perfect as you.”

She felt nothing but his warm breath on her cheeks, her ear, her neck…

He inhaled deeply, savoring her. Still, he didn’t touch her, but she could feel him, and the faint tickle of sensation on her bare skin was electric.
