MarIK released her lips and she took in the breath she didn’t realize she needed. She tilted her head back, allowing him to kiss his way down her neck. His hands were on her hips, lifting her up his body, and she wrapped her legs around his waist.

Fire grew inside her, a burning need she was desperate to have him quench. The higher position exposed her breasts to the air — and his mouth. He took a nipple inside his lips. When he sucked her, hard sparks pulsed throughout her body straight to her pussy. “Oh God, that feels good.”

He did it again and again, using one hand to hold her up and the other to explore her entire body, while his mouth drove her crazy out of her mind. She wanted him inside her so badly she was rubbing herself against him, trying to make it happen.

“Easy, beautiful, we’ll get there.”

“Now, I need you right now!”

“Wait, let me make sure you’re ready.”

“I’m ready.”

“Are you sure?” He used his fingers to caress her pussy lips. Then he inserted one finger, pumping it inside. He inserted another finger and another, stretching her. She was so fucking close.

She growled as she rubbed her pussy near his cock. “Now, please.”

MarIK removed his fingers and took his shaft into his hand, bringing the tip to her entrance. In one smooth upward motion, he thrust into her, all the way to the hilt. He waited until she squirmed against him and then began a steady rhythm — in and out, up and down. She placed her feet on the back of his thighs and used her legs to him ride him.

“Goddess, you feel so good,” he growled against her neck.

“You feel good inside me,” she whispered back, gripping his shoulders.

He cupped her ass, holding her up and thrusting deeper. She was so close,so…suddenly, his teeth on her neck had her screaming her release. Moments later, he pulled out of her just as his seed hit her stomach. He held her against him, pulling her deeper into the water to rinse them both off.

A part of her was a little disappointed that he hadn’t claim her, but she also understood. They barely knew each other and the situation wasn’t the best. She lowered her legs but he didn’t let her go. Instead, he held her close to him.

“I wanted you so badly, Sharon, I almost lost my seed in you.”

“I would have been okay with that.”

“Do you understand what that means?”

“You would be claiming me.”

“Have other males asked to claim you?”

“I will not answer questions on previous men.”

“So they did. Why did you refuse them?”

She pulled away from him, dipping down into the water, then back up again. “I didn’t feel love for them. I liked them, but past the one night or two, I couldn’t see myself being with them longer. They were great, just not for me.”

“We’ve known each other for such a short time. How would you have handled it if I mated you right now?”

“Better than you, obviously. How many females have you been with since your mate died?”Oh God, why did I just ask that?She felt like a horrible person for bringing that up.

“A few, but none I ever wanted to mate until you.” He began walking out of the water and pulled out some things from the bag, including a blanket and different rocks to start a fire with.

She came out after him and watched him drying himself off with the blanket. “MarIK…”

“When I found out that the Katierans accepted OrIN’s offer for negotiations, I knew I had to do the honorable thing and keep the Katierans safe as much as was possible. I had no doubt I would die and actually was relieved, thinking I was ready to go to the great beyond and possibly see RowANa again. Then I looked into your eyes and knew.”

Sharon came up behind him and put her hand on his back. “Knew what?”

He turned to look down at her. “I knew the reason why I survived. It was for you. The Goddess granted me a person to live for.”

“In many ways, I felt the same. I had traveled to Katiera and been there a few years but I wasn’t happy. There was no one that I wanted to live my life with. I was ready to go back to Earth when I was offered the mission. I thought I would do this, and if I made it out alive, I would go back to Earth. Then I saw you and it was like I got struck by lightning. You were the reason I was supposed to come here; you were the one I was…waiting for.”
