“Hold your breath,” he said.
She did as he lowered them under the surface, letting the water cover her head to toe. If she’d thought the cleansing unit was good earlier, then this was heavenly. The heat and the minerals soaked into her body, making her immediately relaxed… well, almost.
She was still fully aware of the sexy Tallean pressed against her body.
Ranek stood back up, bringing her with him. It was nearly impossible to ignore the way the water sluiced off his shoulders, highlighting every single muscle. She swallowed hard as he waded to one of the rocks that had been carved into a Tallean-sized seat and released her into it before sitting down next to her. He sighed, the decadent sound tickling her belly and making her think of him sighing for a more carnal reason.
Before Ranek could pull her in close to him, Commander Chaos decided he wanted some attention from the Tallean male, and Maya was grateful for the pup’s unintended distraction.
She sank into the waters, hoping that under the surface, Ranek wouldn’t be able to scent her arousal and the way her body reacted to his.
She focused on the water and let the mineral-rich liquid soak away all the worries that had plagued her day. This was exactly what she needed. But this deep sense of relaxation didn’t last long, because soon she became abundantly aware that Ranek was right next to her, equally naked and looking way too sexy for his own good.
His presence felt even hotter than the water around them, and it was nearly impossible to ignore him. She had to remindherself that unless she wanted to be disappointed that he could never form a mate bond with her, she had to stay away.
She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, trying her best to ignore him and failing. What should have been a relaxing time in a natural spring ended up being torture, making her second-guess her own decisions. Would it be so bad to have a little fling with a sexy merchant? It would be just the one time. That wasn’t enough for her to fall in love, was it? She was a big girl; she could handle a fling. Right?
She was suddenly pulled up into Ranek’s lap. Her eyes popped open. Commander Chaos had climbed out of the water and was curled up and half asleep, exhausted after his impromptu adventure.
“Feeling better?” he asked.
Her breath caught at the feel of his firm thighs under her ass. She wasn’t the only one affected by their closeness and the warm water surrounding them, because his cock nudged against the back of her legs.
“Yes.” It was supposed to be a normal reply, but the single word came out so needy, she hardly recognized it as hers.
“Good, me too. Especially now that you’re here,” he growled into her ear, his low, rumbling voice vibrating through her body. His lips brushed the shell of her ear, chasing a ripple of need that coursed through her.
“Fuck!” he gritted out. “You smell so good. I would like to experience the human mouth-mating again. Would you deny me?”
Denyhim? Gods! More like she couldn’t deny herself! Screw being responsible. She’d had a fucking tough day. She wanted release, and she wanted it now! It wasn’t like she was going tofall in love with Ranek after one time, even if itwasin a magical hot spring.
Instead of answering with words, she covered his mouth with hers. His lips were demanding and hungry, leaving her no room to think. Her fingers tightened on his brawny shoulder, nails scraping over wet skin. She shifted against him, and the hard ridge of his arousal pressed against her sensitive pussy, sending need rushing to her belly.
“Stars, female, the things you do to me.” His voice was rough and possessive, and sounded just as needy as she felt. It was a turn-on knowing that little old her made this big, sexy Tallean male feel this way.
His hand slid down her curves, like he was trying to memorize her, before guiding her hips to move against him. Her own slickness added to the slip of the water, and she hissed as his length slid through her slit and the thick head bumped up against her opening.
The growl that followed was pure male satisfaction. “Does that feel good, my sweet?”
“Mm-hmm,” she managed to get out.
“Good. I’m going to make you feel even better.”
He gripped her hips and rolled her against him hard, and the motion had his cock rubbing against her clit. Then he did it again, and again. And she was rubbing against him, each glide of his cock pulling her insides tighter. Her movements became wilder, and she bit down against his shoulder to stop from crying out as the tension broke, and the pulsing started deep in her pussy.
Wow! She’d come just from dry-humping him. Or was that wet-humping since they were in a hot spring?
Ranek was lining them up, one hand holding his cock and the other gripping her firmly by the hips and pushing her down. One moment she was pulsing around nothing, and the next she was so full she couldn’t breathe. The last bit of air left in her lungs came out in a shrill scream.
But it had been a long time since she’d had something this substantial in her, and she was so tight it felt like he’d never fit.
“Just a little more, little Maya. I know you can take all of me.”
The water sloshed around them as he thrust up into her again, filling her with yet another thick, hard inch.
She bit back a whimper, not wanting him to mistake the sound and stop.
Every thrust of his hips and squeeze of his hands on her flesh was a claim on her, possessive and firm, and she welcomed it. She howled when he pressed a thumb to her clit and rocked them in short, quick, forceful bursts, until he was fully impaled in her.
