“Really?” she asked quietly.The light of the Luxirian moon illuminated her eyes and Rixavox knew he’d never seen anything so beautiful, so pure, than what he saw in her gaze.
He exhaled a sharp breath.“You must understand that a blood bond is…powerful.Blood bonds are only performed during mating ceremonies, theravraxia.What you feel now…it might only be a sampling of what will come.”
Another wave of desire was rising within her again, each one more powerful than the last.She feared what she would do when it crested.
“But you said Luxirians mate for life,” she whispered, trying to clear the fogginess in her head from the Fates’ presence, from the prickling, tingling lust that sizzled in her veins.
He shook his head with a growl.“It does not matter, Sessela,” he insisted.“You will still have the choice to return to your home planet.This does not change that.”
“But—”
“You do not know the fear I feel, even now,” he said, maneuvering his forehead to lean against her own.Cecelia sucked in a breath, her eyelids fluttering shut at his nearness, before she opened them to look into his eyes.“Seeing you like that, afraid that the Fates would take you to the blackworld, away from me…it is the worse fear I have ever known.”
“Rixavox,” she whispered, her throat beginning to burn.
“I will do anything to see you healed,” he finished.“Anything, luxiva.”
What she felt for him was unparalleled, she realized.And there was no one who was his equal in her eyes.There never would be.
The wave of pleasure was beginning to crest and she found herself clutching at his arms, squeezing harder with every passing moment.
He was waiting for her answer.And Cecelia knew that he would do nothing until she gave him her full acceptance, that this was somethingshewanted, even as the energy within her—within them both—was becoming unbearable and impossible to ignore.
“Yes,” she whispered against him.She leaned forward, pressing her lips against his.“I’m ready.Yes.”
Rixavox’s hands immediately encircled her waist, clutching her to him as he wedged his hips between her legs.Cecelia gasped, the pleasure of feeling him against her overwhelming.
She felt so many different emotions at the same time…an intense need for Rixavox, fear that her body might not be able to heal, happiness that she was with him, awed by the power and magic of that place, but most importantly, she felt love.She felt love in her heart, something she’d never experienced before, and she felt loved by the alien male who was kissing her like she was the only woman in the entire universe for him.
Because to a certain extent, she was.
It was humbling, beautiful, pure.She would have probably burst into happy tears if the desire making every part of her body tingle had been any less distracting or intense.
Rixavox hauled her up in his arms and she wrapped her legs around his hips, holding onto his shoulders as he walked them over to the padded furs he’d placed down on the floor of the cavern.
“The blood bond,” he said, voice ragged as he laid her down gently, “is performed when we are joined together, when I am deep inside you,tev?”
Cecelia sucked in a breath and nodded, feeling heat branch out from her center at his words.“O-okay.”
The wave began to crest when he dropped down over her, settling his weight between her thighs.
“Rixavox,” she gasped and then moaned, her back bowing.The only way she could describe it was like mini-orgasms throughout every part of her body, spreading, growing.
His purr made his entire chest vibrate and she heard his jaw pop from how hard he was clenching it from the pleasure.
“It will feel even better,luxiva,” he rasped, grabbing the hem of her tunic and pulling it over her head.He accidentally ripped it with his strength and tossed it away with a growl, before dropping his head to nuzzle her breasts, sucking the tips of her peaked nipples into his mouth.
It was too intense.Cecelia was surprised when a soft scream tore from her throat as stabs of pleasure assaulted her body.She thought she might cum just from him sucking on her breasts.
Dazed and moaning, she blindly reached down and fumbled with the material that covered exactly what she wanted, what sheneeded.Rixavox’s growl echoed around the cavern as he helped her with the fastenings, before tearing through them like tissue paper and tossing them next to her ruined shirt.
Cecelia felt every inch of him.His cock bobbed between them and she whimpered when she felt his pre-cum pool just below her belly button, hot and searing, as his thick, ridged length dragged across her sensitive flesh.Rixavox rocked his hips against her and he groaned.She felt the sound fill her head as more wetness coated her inner thighs.She wasmorethan ready for him.
“Now, Rixavox,” she panted, arching her back as she could feel more of his flesh pressed against her.He felt like heaven.“Please!”
She saw stars burst into her vision when another wave crashed over her, as demanding as it was exquisite.The flutterings of an orgasm teased her from between her thighs and her alien warrior hadn’t eventouchedher there yet.
“Tev,luxiva,” Rixavox hissed.“Vellixa, ta vellixa.”
