“I am glad we came today, Timber.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle. “All you bought was little things that look like me. What about other Earth souvenirs?”
He looked up from the phone with a confused expression, then stroked my cheek. “What else is there on Earth to bother bringing home?”
Damnit. I amnotthe type to swoon, but that was pretty swoon-worthy.
I put my hand over his and gently pulled his hand away from my face. “N’kal, I know last night was a confusing time for you—it was for me, too—but we can’t. I can’t go home with you, and since you’re the heir to Xalan, you can’t exactly stay here. The toys and stuff are the closest you’ll get to bringing me back with you.”
His face fell, but to his credit, he didn’t argue.
“I wish I could stay. I am liking Earth. It’s nice.”
“The con is nice, yeah, but Earth sucks. People are hateful things, and they don’t much like change. You’d be wanting to go home in no time if you stayed.”
“Not if I stayed with you.”
Damn again. He wasn’t going to let it go.
The intensity of N’kal’s gaze made me uncomfortably hot, and I fanned myself with my hand. Rather than backing off, he moved closer, wrapping his arms around me. I wanted to stop him, to push him away, but a larger part of me enjoyed the feeling. For an amphibian, he was incredibly warm and cozy. My heartbeat thudded heavily in my chest, and my lips parted against my will as I gazed up at him. I didn’t want to give him the impression that I wanted him to kiss me, but Iwantedhim to kiss me.
And kiss me he did.
He leaned in, cradling the back of my head with his hand, his scaled lips brushing against my mouth. I gasped and placed a hand on his chest, but I couldn’t bring myself to push himaway. Instead, I deepened the kiss, licking his lips before gently pushing my tongue between them.
N’kal was a fast learner. I didn’t know if Xalanites had a version of French kissing on their planet, but if not, he picked it up pretty quick. Before long, I was moaning into him, threading my fingers in his hair as he held me to him.
While we kissed, N’kal slowly led me to the bed. I trembled at the thought of sleeping with him, but it wasn’t from fear. I knew I had nothing to fear from N’kal.
“Timber,” he muttered against my lips, “if you do not wish to mate, please say so.”
I should say no … I should say no …
“Please, N’kal …” The words came unbidden from my mouth. “Please … don’t stop. Please don’t stop.”
Did I seriously justbeghim? What was wrong with me?
He slid his hands down my back and under my ass, gripping my thighs as he lifted me to his waist. I wrapped my legs around him, and he lowered me onto the bed. His cock—cocks? I knew Xalanites had different equipment than human men, but I wasn’t quite surehowthey were different—pressed into my crotch, and his eyes glowed as he started to vibrate.
Jesus Christ, he vibrated!
I ground my hips against him while he fumbled with his pants. I wanted more, wanted him inside me, wanted to take his whole vibrating length.
When he finally got his pants down, I gasped.
Holy shit … He had a fuckingseconddick!
Okay, so it wasn’t quite two of them. The one on top was more like some kind of prehensile tongue-dick combo, flicking back and forth while the other, quote-unquote normal dick, throbbed in anticipation.
N’kal’s hands shook as he pulled down my panties. I was already soaking wet, and his fingers slid in smoothly. Hepumped them a few times, kissing me again, until I moaned and started humping his hand. I almost couldn’t stand the wait, but he seemed eager to explore. His other hand roamed while he finger-fucked me, sliding the phone out of my bra before cupping my tit.
My entire body flared with heat that pulsated through me. N’kal knew what he was doing, that much was certain. He thumbed my clit while his fingers dove into me, and the hand on my breast teased the nipple to a pert peak. He kissed his way down my throat and chest, ending at my cleavage, where he buried his face and inhaled deeply.
“You smell like desire,” he said. I hadn’t the faintest clue what he was talking about, but a moment later I almost completely forgot who I was as his hand picked up speed and he brought me to a screaming climax.
“So beautiful …”
I didn’t have time to process his compliment before he was climbing on top of me, positioning himself at my entrance. He cupped my cheek with his wet hand and gazed into my eyes.
