His hands left her hair to trail up the exposed skin of her thighs, but he stopped himself before encountering her cunt.Bidan would likely return any moment and he’d told Rixavox to call a council meeting.His appointed ambassadors would be arriving shortly from their various outposts spread across Luxiria.
Frustration mounted as he warred with his desires and his duty, but he told himself that he needed to get everything in order before he could take his female to theRavrax’torfor their mating ceremony.Theravraxiaitself was private and they would not return for many spans.
With more control than he thought he could possess, he ceased, but left his hands under her tunic, at the juncture of her thighs where her heat seeped into him.Kat surfaced from their kiss, disoriented, her eyes slightly glazed.
His voice was gruff, full of regret as he told her, “I have duties I must attend to,luxiva.I must brief my ambassadors about our journey…and I have preparations to make for the mating ceremony.”
Clarity returned to her eyes.“And…when will it happen?”
“Tomorrow,” he replied, feeling heat spread in the pit of his stomach.He was suddenly impatient to get everything done.Just the thought that his female would be hisluxivaafter the Fates blessed their union…it was the sweetest torture having to wait just one more span.They would depart before the twin suns began their descent in the sky.He would make sure that their tent in the plains would be ready for them, with all the provisions they would need during their time there.
He’d heard that after the blood bond, it was like succumbing to a drug.An intensity that neither of them had felt before in their life spans would overtake them and they would see it through together.They would be as connected as two beings could be.
There was a plant that grew in theTervatorregion that they imported into the city.After going through a clarification process, it was burned to create a thick smoke and inhaled by a Breeding pair or pleasure pair or mated pair.It was said to be an extreme aphrodisiac, the effects of which lasted for half of a span.Both Rixavox and Cruxan had takentevvaxwith chosen pleasure mates multiple times and had always praised its results.
Vaxa’an had never taken it with his past pleasure mates…and he’d heard that even the blood bond was more intense.There was a reason that theravraxialasted multiple spans and why it tended to result in the creation of an offspring.
His chest rumbled, imagining his female large with their child.His gaze returned to his family’s Luxirian crystal.If she was pregnant, would she still choose to leave him?Or would she stay because of it?
There was no denying that he wanted to impregnate her.The sooner the better.His Instinct demanded it.
Tomorrow, he would take her to see Privanax at the research labs to ensure that her body could withstand the effects of the mating ceremony.And then, he would take her to theRavrax’tor.
“We will depart tomorrow,” he rasped again.
His female didn’t seem surprised at his answer.All she asked was, “Will it hurt?”
“The mating ceremony?” he asked, his brow bones drawing together in amusement.“No, female.Theravraxiawill be…pleasurable.”
A slight flush marred her creamy skin and he stroked his fingers over her wet cunt, unable to help himself.
“B-but you said something about blood,” she whispered, clenching his wrist to keep his hand still.
“Tev, but I think you will find this also pleasurable.”
She gasped when he found her small, swollen clit and he swiped his thumb against it.He needed to leave immediately, he told himself, or else he just may stay there for the rest of the span just to hear her sweet moans.
Suddenly, he pulled his hands from beneath her tunic and sucked on his thumb, licking off her juices while she watched, lips parted.He pulled her close and kissed her one last time, finding it extremely erotic that she could taste her desire on his tongue, before he retreated.Vaxa’an stood, placing her on her feet, although her legs seemed slightly unsteady.
“I will not be gone long,” he murmured, brushing her hair away.Behind her, he spotted Bidan, powering down a hovercraft on the terrace before stepping out towards their dwelling.
He greeted the older Luxirian and Kat turned, startled.
Vaxa’an asked him, “Did Kirov implant you with the language?”
“Yes,” Bidan said, in English.He looked at Kate and inclined his head to her.“Laxriv’an, I am pleased that the Fates have blessed Vaxa’an with aluxivasuch as you.I am honored to serve you.”
“Oh,” Kat said quietly, seeming at a loss for words.“It is…very nice to meet you, Bee-don.”
Vaxa’an’s lips quirked.To Bidan, he said in English, “I must meet with the council.I would like you to send for Keriva.Kat will need many coverings made for her.Tell her to get an implant before arriving.”He looked down at his female with affection.“You can not always wander about in my tunic, female, as much as I would not mind.Keriva will create your new ‘clothes.’”
A bright flush swarmed her face and she cast an embarrassed look at Bidan.
He squeezed her backside playfully and she yelped in surprise, turning on him with a glare that made her look like a disgruntled babyprivixi.
“I will not be long,luxiva,” he said to her, bending down to touch his forehead with hers.Then he turned to leave, already feeling her absence deep in his bones.
