The Alien’s Reward by Luna Kingsley
Chapter 25
Vah’all
“I’ve got you.Just hang on.” We’re both dripping wet when I pull her from the lake, but her body can’t regulate the temperature like I can. She’s already shaking out of control and while my body would usually warm hers, I’m now wet and cold from the lake as well. The fight continues above us, so I stay close to the water, holding her to my chest while I try to figure out where to take her. For now, it’s imperative that I get her warm and hide her somewhere safe until we regain control of the situation. Before that happens, it’s risky to try to get her back across the mountain pass.
Our enemies are circling above so I fly off in a different direction toward the safety of the forest where it’s possible to find somewhere to hide. I settle at the base of a hill where the grass grows tall, but soft. The trees stand a few feet away, but the canopy provides a circle of protection from enemy eyes searching from above.
I lay her in the tall grass and cover her with my body. It’s dark but still not safe to start a fire for warmth. “I know you’re cold.” She watches me while I check my waist to see what supplies are still with us since we made such a quick exit from the cargo ship. “No fire, but this will keep you warm.” I hold up the device that turns into a heated blanket and she manages a small smile. “Take off your wet clothes and I’ll wrap you in the warm blanket.”
Her teeth chatter loudly while she complies. First, she tugs the soaking shirt over her head before moving to the waist of her pants. Her nipples are hard buds, round like berries and I must fight the urge to suck them into my mouth. My body aches for her and even though my head knows this isn’t the time for mating, my body isn’t getting the same message.
She struggles out of her pants but eventually manages as I activate the blanket to begin wrapping her up. My cock is as hard as a steel pole in my pants and now that I have my woman back by my side, I want to show her physically how much I’ve missed her. But first, I’m going to make sure she’s warm and uninjured.
“Do you want to share the blanket?” she asks. “You must be cold. You went in the water too.”
“I just need to hold you. That’s all it will take to warm me.”
I pull her onto my lap and then burrow us down into the tall grass as far as possible. From this position, I can still see if anyone approaches but we’re well protected. We’ll be able to rest for a few hours and then I’ll get her back to the compound.
“Are you okay, Sarah? What did they do to you in there?”
She releases a deep exhale and burrows deeper against my chest. She quietly retells what happened to them until we arrived. It’s unsettling to listen the details of her captivity and have it sink in how dangerous it is for her right now. I brought her here once I had permission. I kept her with permission from the council. But once that all changed, it has become more difficult for me to guarantee her safety. How responsible am I being if I’ve put her at the center of conflict among my kind?
“You’re so quiet. What’s wrong?” She props her chin on my chest and searches my face for the answers she seeks.
Unfortunately, I’m more conflicted now than I was when I had a clear purpose. We’ve rescued the women, but we need to figure out what will happen to them. “I’m good,” I finally say. “Trying to be alert until it’s safe for us to leave this place.”
“Are you cold?” Her fingers trace up and down my torso, light enough to send a shiver through my body. “I’m hogging the blanket when you were in the water too.” Before I can object and remind her that my body adjusts easily to the temperature of my environment, she begins to unzip the thin blanket, revealing her warm, slightly pink skin.
I groan when she flattens her chest against me before pulling the blanket wide, so it stretches over my shoulders. “You should keep the heat. I want you to be warm.” Even as I say those words, I rub my hands over her soft skin, reveling in the silkiness of her body rubbing against mine. She parts her lips and smiles, as if she knows what she’s doing to me.
“I’ll share with you,” she says, her hand sliding down my body until she rubs over my growing bulge. “You saved me from that hell, Vah’all. Those plain white walls were painted with hopelessness and all the tubes and needles were panic inducing.” She wraps her fist around me and squeezes. I can’t contain the sounds of pleasure that escape me even though I’m trying my best to be quiet. “You make me feel different, though. You give me pleasure and make me feel safe. Give me those things now, Vah’all. Please.”
Without waiting for a response, she slides down my body and takes me into her mouth. Her tongue slides over my shaft, licking around my swollen head. Heat engulfs me as she takes me into the back of her throat. I twist my fingers in her hair as she moves up and down, taking me as deep as she can until she starts to gag. Warm saliva drips onto my pelvis and a moment later, I pull her off me by her hair. She sucks in a deep breath as I gush liquid onto my belly and cock. “Looks like you’re ready,” she says. Before I can answer, she licks over my shaft, tasting my lubricant.
The physical response is almost immediate. Her cheeks flush pink while her breathing changes. Grabbing onto her, I roll us around so she’s on the bottom, nestled in the grass. “This is the first time I get to take you without chains to hold me back.” I take her mouth hungrily, my cock sliding against her pussy, making her wet and ready for me. “Spread wide for me. I won’t be gentle.”
“Vah’all,” she moans as her mouth moves against mine. Her hips press up, seeking the connection she’s aching for. “Fill me,” she begs.
I give her what she wants. She spreads herself for me, so I push my cock into her slick cunt and thrust home with one forceful pump. With my hand covering her mouth to keep her noises from carrying, we lock gazes and I start to move. Her eyes squeeze shut with the first few thrusts, her body stretching and adapting to me. “Open your eyes and watch me, Sarah. Watch what you do to me.”
Her eyes snap open and flood with desire. There’s something else there, too, a flicker every time I bury myself until my balls slap against her skin. “Does that hurt, my only?”
She nods, a low groan sounding from her throat.
“Do you want me to stop?”
She shakes her head.
“Soon your cunt will recognize my cock. But only mine. This is my cunt now, isn’t it?”
She nods her head again, her eyes losing focus the closer she gets to orgasm as I continue to pound into her body. “You squeeze me so tight. So tight.” I continue to whisper to her as I take her. My hand moves from over her mouth to around her neck, squeezing just enough to show her who’s in charge.
Her mouth parts as her eyes roll back in her head. I’m about to tell her to keep her eyes on me when she begs me to touch her. “Please, Vah’all, please. Touch me, rub me.” I move my finger down to her pleasure bud and massage her, rubbing my fingers in circles until her body locks up and I know she’s coming harder than she ever has by how hard her nails dig into my ass.
Her channel squeezes me while it contracts, and I come just as hard. I pulse into her warmth, locking my arms around her torso and holding her to me so we’re one. After such an intense mating, the nature of the kiss I press to her lips is surprisingly gentle. She curls her body into me, and I’m filled with the greatest sense of peace. It’s the same sensation I experienced when I first saw her. I knew she’d be the one to save me from a lifetime of assassinations and haunted dreams. But now I’m struck with the realization that in order to keep her safe, I’m going to have to let her go. Unless my brothers and I can figure out a way to guarantee the women’s safety, we’re going to have to offer them a ride out of here.
