Chapter Four

BRIANA’S HEART RACED in her chest as she made the admission to Quillin. It was crazy, but how could she deny the connection between them? He’d known instantly, but it had taken her nearly a day to accept.

She grinned, feeling crazy and reckless as she tipped back her head and parted her lips in an invitation. “Shouldn’t there be a claiming involved?”

He stared down at her, his golden eyes blazing with a heat she could feel all the way to her soul. He swept his hand through her hair, leaning in so that his breath whispered against her lips. “Yes, there should be.”

He kissed her, soft and gentle, yet full of passion. She closed her eyes and opened herself to the feeling, letting it carry away all her doubts and fears. A fire blossomed inside of her, one that spread like wildfire throughout the rest of her body as he deepened their kiss.

When he finally broke away, she felt breathless and new—like an entirely different person than who had laid there just moments before.

His hand was still in her hair, and he looked down at her with an intensity that nearly knocked the breath from her chest. “You belong to me now,” he said softly.

She nodded, feeling the truth of it deep within her heart. She hadn’t known what she was looking for until this moment—but now she knew. He was her home, and he always would be.

He leaned in to kiss her again, a promise of forever lingering in the air between them. He pulled away with the faintest of smiles on his lips, and she leaned forward, wanting more. Her heart pounded as she moved closer. His breath quickened, and their gazes locked in a passionate embrace that she knew would soon lead to something more.

The air between them seemed electric, like the atmosphere was charged with the desire of what was unfolding. She was a little afraid, since she’d never done this before, but excitement underscored everything else.

When he lifted a hand to cup her breast, thumbing his thumb across her nipple, she purred like a kitten with wanton desire. She reached for him, pressing her body against his and wrapping one arm around his neck.

His hands snaked their way down to cup the soft curves of her ass as he murmured into her ear, “I’ve been wanting this since the moment I saw you.” His lips descended on hers hungrily as she moaned in pleasure.

She laid beneath him, her breath coming in shallow gasps and felt every movement he made as if it were her own. His lips pressed against hers and she tasted the warmth of his mouth on hers. She moved slowly at first, unsure of what to do or how to respond but driven by an instinctive desire for more.

He explored her body with fearless fingers until it seemed like every nerve ending within reach sang with pleasure and desire for him. As he did so, he whispered naughty words into her ear that made her skin tingle in anticipation and her pussy wet.

She was lost in a sea of passion, and the waves washed over her and threatened to entirely consume her. She clung to him, desperate for more of his touch but unwilling to let go even if it meant drowning beneath the tides of pleasure that threatened to overwhelm them both. “I’m really not sure what I should do,” she said, her voice quavering with uncertainty.

“That’s totally understandable.” He kissed her chest and then again. “You’ve never done this before. I understand you’re a virgin and will try not to hurt you.”

He gave a slow smile that spread honeyed warmth through her veins. “Let me kiss you...” His gaze darted to her thighs before he kissed her chest a third time, squarely in her cleavage. “Everywhere.” He almost purred the word when he lifted his head again.

She moaned, liking the sound of that. He finished undressing her and himself before laying her back on the thin mattress in the cheap hotel room. She barely noticed their surroundings as he began kissing from her chin down. His lips were soft and gentle against her skin, like a feather brushing lightly against her body. She let out a little gasp as his tongue flicked against her inner thigh, and then again as he moved higher still.

He took his time exploring every inch of her pussy with his mouth, teasing and tantalizing until she was burning up from the inside out. When his tongue flicked across her clit, she whimpered and arched her hips. “I didn’t know it would feel like this.” And he’d barely touched her yet.

He chuckled against her pussy but didn’t reply other than to kiss her again before swiping his tongue from her opening up to her clit. Her body quivered as each motion sent waves of pleasure rushing through her. His hands traveled up and down her body, caressing and touching, until she was panting with desire. She begged him to continue but he teasingly refused, telling her to wait a few moments before he resumed licking her once more.

When he stopped again, she raised herself on her elbows to glare at him. “What are you doing? Either fuck me or don’t.” Heat from embarrassment warmed her cheeks.

The damned alien just laughed again, but with a gentle edge. “I want to make sure you never forget this, and I also need to make sure you can handle my cock.”

Her gaze moved to the long, thick protrusion. She’d shied away from looking at it before, feeling nervous. Now, her eyes widened, and she trembled. It was so long and as thick as her wrist. It glowed golden like him, with the same chimeric patches—which were all vibrant red at the moment.

“It’ll never fit,” she blurted.

He smiled. “As a Med Chief, I can assure you it will...with proper preparation.”

He bent his head to her pussy again, once more resuming licking and sucking. She hovered on the edge of coming while thinking about the huge cock between his muscled legs. It looked textured, and she wondered how it would feel inside her. Her breath caught as he moved his mouth to her inner thigh, a soft moan escaping her lips. His tongue moved in circles around the contours of her skin, getting ever closer to its destination.
