Kade by Tasha Black
Aurora
Aurora closed her eyes as the sensations overtook her.
A few times, she had endured the awkward fumbling of a Terran boy back on her home planet, inclined by an ache that was never really assuaged.
There was only so much privacy in the alleyways of Terra-4, and there wasn’t much time to luxuriate.
But this bed was so soft that she felt it would absorb her.
And there was no one nearby, no soldiers to catch them and break them up, laughing. There was no harsh weather to contend with. They were both clean and content, with full bellies.
And Kade was kissing his way down her body as he slid his finger down each fastening of her gown, revealing her sensitive skin to the cool night air, and then warming it with his mouth.
Oh gods, his wicked mouth. He nuzzled her right breast and then her left, his rough jaw abrading the tender flesh.
She cried out when he drew her nipple into his mouth at last, his hand mimicking his mouth’s movements on the other nipple.
He groaned and the sound was deeper than it should have been.
The deep note seemed to reverberate in her core and she sank her nails into his shoulders, desperate for more.
He fed on her breasts for a long time.
Aurora was trembling, burning.
He was pressing her down against the bed before she even realized she was arching up against him.
He abandoned her breasts, licking and nipping his way down to her hips.
With a flick of his wrist, her panties were gone. She smiled at the idea that those sharp scales around his forearms could be used for something other than armor.
Then he was parting her sex with a rough hand and all thought left her mind.
Oceans of need washed over her and she couldn’t tell where she ended and his mouth began.
Kade was groaning against her, fluttering his tongue against her softly, and then lapping at her with firm strokes.
Aurora heard herself cry out, and then she was riding a waterfall of blinding pleasure into a sea of ecstasy.
Kade continued to work her, extending her rapture until she could take no more and whimpered and struggled to free herself.
Instantly, he pulled away and leaned his head against her belly, stroking her thighs as if to comfort her.
“Kade,” she sighed.
He crawled up beside her and pulled her against his chest.
She could feel the hard, hot length of him through his clothes, and need began to pulse inside her again.
“Beautiful woman,” he murmured into her hair.
She slid her hand down the ridges of his abs toward his cock.
But he grabbed her wrist before she could touch him.
“Sleep now, Aurora,” he murmured. “Tomorrow everything will be settled between us.”
It was an oddly old-fashioned thing to say.
And there was no way she could sleep now.
But his arms were so warm around her, and she was feeling so relaxed, that she decided to close her eyes, just for a moment, before she asked him what he meant.
