And if this was how Luxirians treated their females, no wonder Kate, Beks, and Cecelia had chosen to stay with theirs.
What she also knew was that Vikan hadn’t cum.After her third, she’d pleaded with him for a break, told him that she wanted to return the favor, especially since his hips had been grinding and fucking the goddamnfloorsince he’d been so turned on and aroused.
But he’d denied her.
He’d told her that if she touched him, he would break his word about them not ‘mating’ that night.When she’d told him that shewantedhis cock, that she didn’t care anymore, he’d given her the sweetest kiss that made her melt in his arms and repeated softly that they wouldn’t mate that night.
It was frustrating, but he’d quickly distracted her.And by the time he finally released her, after he finally gave into her exhausted pleas, Taylor couldn’t do much else but collapse against the cave floor and snuggle into her Luxirian when he wrapped her up in his arms, holding her tight against his chest.
And then she promptly passed out, but fell into a dream.

“You are insatiable,” Taylor murmured, gasping as he licked a line up her throat.“Vikan.”
“Can you blame me, female?” he rasped, gripping her hips, pressing her to him so she felt the hardened length of his throbbing cock.
But she pulled back, grasping the sides of his face, so she could peer at him closely.Because, strangely enough, sheknewshe was dreaming, but this felt different from all her other dreams.
“Is this real?” she whispered, her gaze connecting and holding his gray eyes.
“It is always real, female,” he replied.
They were in his bedroom inLopixa, she knew.Because she’d seen it before in her visions.The room was large and it was night, the only source of illumination coming from the windows, shafts of silver moonlight filtering their way through.
She saw the bed, a platform of a dozen furs, with brightly colored cushions lining the edges.They were standing at the very foot of it, a quiet humming the only sound in the room.She knew it was theLopitaxsea, which lay just beyond the cliffs of the outpost.
Taylor bit her bottom lip, his words echoing in her mind.He was right.Because she didn’t feel like they were pretending anymore.
“I meant are you dreamwalking, right now?” she finally asked.
“Tev,” he replied.“I am.We only have a couple spans until we reachLopixa,if that.I want to take advantage of our time together.”
Taylor softened at his words and when he stroked his claw-tipped fingers down her bare arm, her breath hitched.Her skin was still sensitive.
“How do you feel?” he murmured against the shell of her ear, inhaling her scent, before running the sides of his horns across her temple.
Taylor flushed, seeing those horns in a different light now.
“Amazing,” she replied softly.Taylor had never been shy in her entire life.Her peers and friends had always called her reserved, but she wasn’t afraid to speak her mind if she thought the occasion called for it.
But right then?
Vikan was making her shy, in the best way possible.She felt her belly flutter with a thousand butterflies as his lips curled up in response.
She loved his smile.Just a few days ago, she never would’ve thought she’d seen it, never would’ve thought he’d been capable of one.
And even though she could tell his smile was a little rusty and underused, it made it all the better when he let her see it.
“Maybe I shouldn’t be so jealous about all the females you’d been with before,” she commented, a teasing smile crossing her lips.“Because you’ve obviously learned a lot from them.”
Vikan huffed out a breath, shaking his head.“Female,” he warned.
“I just wish you’d let me return the favor,” she murmured, pressing closer.
“I do not want to mate you on a cave floor like a beast,” he rasped, his hands settling on her lower back.
Taylor’s eyes flicked to the bed in his room pointedly.“So I have to wait until we reachLopixa?Until we are here?”
