“But they don’t know we are doing it, so it doesn’t affect them,” Dariux said with perfect logic.
“Would you prefer it if I scan you secretly, then?” she asked sweetly.
“Don’t be sassy. Of course not. Fine, you can scan me. We are likely to get tested and scanned anyway when we get back. You probably won’t get what you want from me.”
“Really? Is that your way to seduce a woman? These parbots seem to have men’s skills a little rusty. I’m not impressed with your...prowess and beginning to doubt it would be worth my trouble.”
Her eyes danced with humor, and her teasing was more than he could take. Did she want to see his prowess? He would show her.
“Oh, I haven’t even shown you my skills.”
“I would agree with that. So far, it’s been all talk and no action.”
“You want action?” Suddenly standing from the tub, he grabbed her and hugged her against his naked body.
Her arms came up to brace against his chest, but she wasn’t trying to get away. Her hands slid over his shoulders and around his neck. She leaned back in his embrace and looked at him. All humor gone; naked hunger showed in her eyes that he was sure was mirrored in his.
“So we are doing this. Are you sure?” he asked in a hoarse whisper.
Kalli merely nodded her head and tried to kiss him, but he pulled back.
“Tell me. Tell me this is what you want.”
“I want it. I want you.”
CHAPTER 8
He swooped down andcaptured her lips. The desire that had simmered in her since she spotted him walking into the tub sporting a magnificent erection exploded into an uncontrollable fire.
The kiss started off where the previous one in the tent had ended and escalated from there. His lips were warm, soft, commanding. He plundered her mouth, exploring all the different textures, groaning when her tongue tangled with his in a delicious play. Just to suckle again at the corners of her mouth, sending a shot of surprised delight straight to her core. It was as if there were invisible threads of sensation connecting her mouth to every other area of her body, and he alone knew how to pull the strings and play her, creating a symphony of delight in her entire body.
It had never felt this good. Usually, kisses were an uncomplicated prelude to the more interesting action, but Dariux kissed as if the kiss was the mating. Wanting to draw more pleasure from his lips, she mirrored his action, sucking his tongue into her mouth in a rhythm imitating intercourse. He groaned again and ground her against his naked body, hips flexing in a primal rhythm. His body was hard, hot, deliciously male; his hard length proud and potent between them.
She wanted to grab it. Feel it with her hands, with her mouth. The desires coursing through her shocked and titillated her, fanning the flames of her desire until she was a mindless creature of pleasure.
She untangled a hand from his neck, slid it between their bodies, over the rock-hard planes of his chest. When her fingers brushed his nipple, he let out a helpless gasp. Interesting. Lower, lower, over his stomach rippled with muscle, seeking the hot flesh she wanted. Her hand wrapped around his turgid member, and his hips pumped helplessly into her.
