Raptor's Desire (A Planet Desire novelette)(6)

Her eyes widened. “You could do that?”

“Yes. But I prefer to meld our vision to form events we both want to pass.”

“Therefore we’re naked?” Red suffused her cheeks. “It’s what my mind wants?”

He nodded, satisfied she finally understood.

Her teeth nibbled the bottom lip of her lush mouth for a moment, and then her gaze narrowed. “But you didn’t have to encourage me.”

He arched one eyebrow.

“Once you realized I thought you were part of a dream, you didn’t have to seduce me. You weren’t being gentlemanly when you took advantage of the fact that—”

“That you were lonely? That your body ached for loving?” He pumped his hips to emphasize his point. “I couldn’t resist becoming your fantasy. What man could?”

Her hands moved to the tops of his shoulders, and she lifted herself up then ground her body down on his cock. Her eyes closed for a moment, and her head fell back. “Don’t flatter me. I won’t believe you—I know what I am.”

His hands assisted her movement, and they quickly established a rhythm. “Tell me.” His lips skimmed her jaw. “What are you?”

“Only average looking.” She gasped as his teeth closed on her earlobe. Her back arched, pressing her pointed breasts into his chest. “Under other circumstances, you wouldn’t give me a second glance.”

He tongued the tender lobe his teeth had worried. “It’s true. Of late, I haven’t had time to pursue my pleasure. I’ve only known the purchased favors of professional pleasure-givers. But you are beautiful.” He thrust faster, pushing her hips downward to increase the friction between their opposing fleshes. “Would you believe me if I said that your inexpertise is enchanting?”

Her breaths panted. “Still, you should…have told me…before you took me the first time.”

“Would you have refused me?” he asked, his voice roughening with passion.

“Probably not…I wouldn’t have…believed you.” She moaned—a low sweet sound that amused him. Her body was already quickening.

Although their conversation was killing him, he continued to drive his point as his cock drove them both to distraction. “When I brought you to my chambers—only intending to talk to you—I read the hunger in your eyes.”

“So…you decided to use my need…to soften me up…and get the password?” The first shudder of her orgasm racked them both.

Khalim slowed and sharpened his thrusts, angling his hips to glide his cock along the nerve-rich spot inside her vagina. He would deliver her maximum satisfaction. “No,” he said, even as he felt her body convulse. “I wasn’t thinking.” His hips slammed against hers. “When your hands…went straight for my cock…and you knelt on the floor to take me into your sweet mouth…any thoughts of negotiation flew.”

She groaned. “Don’t remind me… This is…embarrassing enough.”

“There should be no embarrassment…when we both are pleased with…where our imaginations lead us.” He shouted then, and his body exploded, his cock pummeling her sweet cunt as his ejaculate bathed her womb.

Dragging air into his starved lungs, he released a short bark of laughter. Never had a conversation been so torturous!

Once again, Andromeda cuddled in his embrace. “If I surrender to you,” she whispered, “I’ll become hunted. I’ll lose everything I’ve worked for—my ship, my reputation. And for what?”

“For us?”

Her head shook in denial against his shoulder. “I’m not so big a fool to believe there’s any us beyond this dream.”

He threaded his fingers through her wet hair and pulled her head back to watch the emotions her face betrayed. Sadness trembled at the corners of her mouth; wariness lurked in her wide-eyed stare. “Where do you think we go after this?”

“You to prison, me to the next job.” Her expression grew closed. “We should go back.”

Andromeda had much to learn. His wounded prey would resist his gentling every step of the way. His head descended toward hers, and she didn’t resist as he pressed a chaste kiss against her lips. Then with a nod, they were back inside the misty shower stall.

Andromeda found herself pressed to the metal wall, Khalim blanketing her back. The weight of his cock rested between her legs, nudging her swollen slit. With the memory of her recent orgasms humming in her mind and body, she had to fight hard not to tilt her hips. Oh, how she wanted for him to slide right in…

Being pulled between a wet “dream” and reality was too damn confusing. She took a deep breath and pushed away from the wall.

Khalim kissed the top of her shoulder but stepped away.

With his body calling all her sensually deprived hormones, she knew she needed space. And time to sort out her jumbled thoughts, free from the distraction of his aroused body.

The man needed clothes.

She pressed the button to stop the water, and the door to the stall slid open. “I’d like for us both to get dressed. I need to check my navigation system to see where we are. Then I’ll fix us something to eat.”

She didn’t wait for his response and stepped out. The silent vacuum tucked around the doorway of the stall sucked the excess water from her body. Stepping farther into her cabin, she opened the cabinet above her bed and pulled out a reclamation suit.
