I should probably go and wash my seed off myself and change into clean clothing.
“I’m just going to…” my words trail off as I hook a thumb over in the direction of my washrooms. Niska grins and nods her head as I walk backward, not wanting to turn away from the sight of her sitting against my pillows until the very last moment.
Once inside my bathing chambers, I take a moment to close my eyes and take a deep, fortifying breath before going to my basin and bracing myself over it. There is a reflection glass hung above and I find myself staring intently at my image.Alright, do not spook this female, Kiahn. You came so fucking close to bonding her to you, and you can’t afford to slip up like that again.After my brief pep-talk, I ask the ship’s command for cool waters. The basin starts to fill up instantly, but before I can scoop some up to splash on my heated face, a slight glisten to two of my fingers on my right hand catches my eye.
Lifting my hand, my mind is promptly flooded with memories of mere moments ago, where those two fingers had been hooked inside the welcoming cunt of that beautiful little creature out there while she used my permission to suck on her sensitive little clit. Without thought or protest, I put my fingers into my mouth to savor the taste of her. My eyelids fall, and I can’t help the low, animalistic groan that comes out of me.
“Are you ok in there?”
Shit!My eyes fly open again. “Yes!” I call out, the answer almost mumbled from around my fingers. I’m not done sucking them clean yet. “I’m fine!”
I glare at my reflection again, as if this was all his fault.
Just… be normal. For fuck’s sake!
After a shower of cool waters, I re-enter the bedchamber wearing my softest, sand-colored pants. I normally sleep naked, but I don’t think that would be wise in this ‘sleep-over’ situation my Niska is asking for. She smiles at me and pats the space beside her, inviting me to my own bed.
Never have I slid between my sheets with my heart pumping the way it is right now.
And now I lay here, on my back, staring straight up to my bedchamber ceiling like I have a million times before whenever we travel on this ship. Except this time, I am obsessively aware of the presence beside me.
Niska giggles, and I turn my head to look at her. “Are you holding your breath?”
“No.”
Was I?
Maybe.
The smile she has on her face could rival every sunset I have ever seen.
She’s laying on her side, her head propped on her hand, elbow bent and digging into the pillow - my pillow. The blanketscovering her from chest to toe do nothing to hide the form of her. I can clearly see the valley of her waist and the crest of her hip. There’s just something about that shape that is so inviting. The Earth Goddesses knew what they were doing when they made human women this way.
“What do we do now?” I ask, prying my gaze away from the landscape of her body.
Niska laughs lightly again. “We can talk. What do you want to talk about,Prince Kiahn?”
I give her a look. She’d said my title correctly, but the tone had been teasing.
I let it slide, of course.
I think there are a lot of things that I would let slide for this female.
“What is… cuddle?”
Niska raises her brows at my question. I wet my lips before continuing.
“Before, you said that we could lay together, talk, and maybe cuddle. What is it?”
The grin she gives me is eclipsed by the way she scoots her body forward, pressing herself to my side. She then lifts my arm and settles it over her shoulder, molding herself to me. “This is a cuddle,” she explains, laying her head on my chest as one of her legs hooks over mine.
I am frozen to the spot, but I can feel my fangs start to slowly slide from my gums. “Oh.”
“Breathe, Kiahn,” Niska laughs, lightly tapping my chest. “It’s meant to be nice.”
“Itisnice… It’s very nice…Really, reallynice.”
“But your heart sounds like it’s trying to burst out of your chest right now,” she leans up to look down at me. “Are you sure you’re ok with this?”
