“I’m fine.”Rygar grunts as he leans down and places soft kisses on top of my exposed cleavage.I bury my fingers in his hair and throw my head back to give him more room.

BILL:Maintain focus, Commander.If you can’t control your suit, it puts both you and your mate at risk.I recommend you cease all physical contact.She could be harmed.Humans are weak, fragile lifeforms.

“I am not weak.”I lean forward and whisper, playing along.I can’t stop the smile as I pepper his mouth with little kisses between words.“And I happen to like the physical contact.”

“As do I.”

“You really take this spaceman character seriously.”I run my fingertips along the seams of his armor costume, eager for the moment I can get him out of it.There must be a zipper.Or buttons.Snaps?Something?

His gaze locks with mine and I freeze.“This is not a game.This is who I am.My men and I were forced to make an emergency landing on Earth two days ago.BILL can repair himself, but we are trapped here until he completes the process.”

“Were you looking for spaceship parts atThe Bucking Bronco?”I tease, because that makes total sense to me.A cowboy bar is, after all, the perfect place to find spare parts for a broken, alien spaceship.

“We came to your village to search for supplies and to sample local food.”Rygar’s lips hover over mine.“I told you, BILL can repair himself.He just needs time.”

I kiss him.I can’t help myself.Just once because now I’m curious and this is fun.“So, you’re an alien who crash landed just outside Stargazer Village?In the middle of nowhere?”

“Yes.”

“And all this just happened to be a few days before theAstronomy Festival & Area 51 Cook-Off?”Where is he really from?Because Stargazer Village’s annual festival is exactly the kind of thing that would attract cosplay super-nerds hoping to see a real-life UFO or two.Hell, my dad was the leader of the local UFO watchers’ club.No one ever pulled off spacesuits that looked like this before.Impressive.“Where do you live?”I bite my lower lip to keep from giggling.“You know, when you’re not on your spaceship fighting bad guys?”

“A city on Erra.Eankeali.”

“Never heard of it.”Is that a Native American word?Washoe Tribe maybe?

He slides his lips along my cheek to whisper in my ear.“Miraculous, is it not?I never would have believed I would find you on Earth.I can’t believe you are here, that you are alive.When we leave this planet, you will accompany us.”

“Oh yeah?Where will we be going?”Leave the planet?His dedication to his cosplay is on another level.It’s charming.I kiss his neck.He smells divine.He tastes like heaven.I want more of him, of his kisses and his crazy talk.It’s fun.I didn’t really understand role-playing before.Now I see the appeal.Maybe he will want me to paint my body green.He can pretend he’s visiting my planet and I’m a local slave girl he rescues.I will need to thank him, of course, with the only thing I have, my magic va-jay-jay.If he says the word, I’ll make it happen.

“Home.To the Pleiadean system.I am not from this planet, Madison.”

My insides feel like melted caramel.He wants to take me home with him?How about I take him home first.“It’s not a distant star, but I have a very posh cabin rented for the next couple days.How about after we get hitched, you come home with me?”I know this thing between us is insane.Maybe it’s the alcohol making me feel warm and fuzzy.Maybe it’s the fact that I caught a man I was supposed to have serious feelings for in a sexual situation with his best friend—and didn’t really care.Or maybe it really is destiny.Fate.Maybe Rygar is justmine.

“I go where you go.”His response is one of the sexiest things I’ve ever heard.Any control I had slips away as he slides his hand up my thing, underneath my dress.Higher.Higher.

I want him to rip every stitch of clothing off my body and feel his way around.I want skin on skin, full body contact.I want him inside?—

Oh, god.

Well, it’s not his cock,but his fingers aren’t exactly small, and he knows how to use them.I rock against his hand as he teases my flesh until I’m gasping at the intense pleasure swamping me.My head falls back when his fingers circle the tiny bundle of nerves.

His talented fingers weave their spell on my girly bits until I’m clinging to him, hanging on for dear life while he drives me toward release.A moan spills from deep in my throat.I want to claw off his stupid spacesuit.I want him naked.Nothing has ever felt so right.

My logical mind is screaming at the top of her lungs that this is too crazy and I need to stop before this goes any further.Bless her heart, I’m not fucking listening.This guy is magic.That’s all there is to it.He’s magical.He’s moving his fingers inside me, kissing my neck right at my sweet spot.I never want him to stop.I never wantthis feelingto go away.Something shifted the moment I kissed him, something fundamental and bone deep, so raw and primitive I don’t want to question it.

If this is a thrill ride, a rollercoaster, or an emotional rocket launch of a relationship, I’m going to hang on to this ride until the end.I’m tired of playing things safe.It’s time I shake my life up a bit.This is me rolling the dice.

I turn my head and claim his lips in a kiss I started but can’t control.

His suit makes a quick beeping noise.When I break the kiss and glance down, something built into the material flashes what looks like some kind of warning.

B.I.L.L.:Sir, your temperature readings are off.Do you need medical assistance?

He growls and lowers his head, taking my bottom lip in his mouth and grazing it with his teeth as he continues his intimate seduction.

B.I.L.L.:Commander?Please respond.

Rygar opens his mouth and takes a breath.That’s air I don’t want him to waste talking, not when he could be kissing me instead.I smash our lips together, kissing him with everything he makes me feel.Talking is irrelevant.Talking accomplishes nothing.Not when I’m on the verge of an orgasm.
