My lips twitch. “I can’t wait.”
We spend the next half hour enjoying the warmth and relaxation of the mud bath and its healing properties. When one of the aestheticians returns, we’re both nearly nodding off. She helps us out of the mud and leads us to an adjoining room with a large, open shower.
“Take your time getting cleaned up here. We’ll wait for you outside.”
The mud on our bodies is already starting to drip off us, leaving soft skin behind.
“So fucking cool,” River marvels.
I turn on the shower and pull him under the spray with me. We take our time washing one another, and when I remove River’s protective briefs, I’m not at all surprised to find his cock standing at attention.
He shrugs and gives me a cheeky grin. “What can I say? I’m young and on my honeymoon.”
I lean down to kiss him with the full force of the passion he inspires in me. Our tongues do a good impression of the Tentacle Tango, and River moans into my mouth.
He tears his mouth away from mine with a gasp. “Fuck yeah. Give me more.”
One of my tentacles emerges from my abdominal pouch and wraps around his erection. “We have to make this quick,” I tell him.
“I don’t think that will be a problem on my end,” he says, then groans when my tentacle begins to stroke him.
“All hail the tentacle, baby!” he declares.
One of my other eager appendages comes out to join the fun, moving behind him to massage his ass cheeks and trace circles around his glorious, tight hole. River moans, and I can’t help but grin. He’s always enjoyed ass play, especially while I’m stroking his cock, so it doesn’t take me long to bring him to the edge. When I sense he’s close, I cover his mouth with my own,swallowing down his cries of pleasure while he shudders his release and then goes limp in my arms.
Looks like we have one more special memory that we will never forget tied to this mud bath.
CHAPTER FOUR
The Tranathian piece of space garbage hitting on Vardox hightailed it and Starblade smirked with satisfaction, then re-holstered his supersonic pistol.
“I’ve never seen this side of you, my dear captain. Why, it seemed almost as if you were… jealous.” Vardox drawled the words with relish.
Starblade’s cheeks burned and he reclaimed his seat with a grunt. Damn and blast, but he couldn’t deny that hewasjealous.
Vardox lounged back in his seat with an air of unhurriedness as he studied Starblade. “How does it feel to be on the other end of things?”
“What the devil are you talking about?”
Vardox sighed and shook his head. “I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had to endure the same sentiment when audacious rogues swarmed around you like flies. By thegalactic gods, I never thought I’d see that emotion from you toward me. I found it incredibly… arousing.”
Starblade crossed his arms over his chest and scowled. “Well, I hated the feeling. That creep was all over you and not taking no for an answer.” It still made his blood boil.
Vardox held a hand over his chest. “Why, darling, were you protecting my virtue?”
Starblade snorted. “What virtue?”
“Touché,” Vardox murmured.

After the supercoolbut weird mud bath experience, where I did, in fact, get my happy ending, Kai and I are whisked off for our next treatment, a lengthy couple’s massage. The two masseuses working on us have six arms each. Let me tell you, having that many hands kneading your muscles and working out all the kinks in your body is pure bliss.
By the time we’re done, I’m half asleep and drooling on the massage table. When I blink my eyes open, I see Kai on the table opposite me, smirking at me with obvious amusement. I surreptitiously wipe my mouth and give him a sheepish look.
“What can I say? These folks are good. I don’t think I’ve ever had a massage that amazing in my entire life.”
