It feltgood. Lainey missed the feel of her flesh, missed the way arousal made her ache. She hadn’t masturbated in what felt like ages. She never wanted it to end.
But Lainey’s control was shattering like glass. And when the alien began to tremble, when a delicious, long, husky groan met her ears, and she perceived him lifting his hips to fuck his fist faster, harder, she knew she wouldn’t last much longer.
Neither will he, Lainey realized, dazed.He’s going to cum.
Then she did something stupid without realizing it. Just as she knew he was nearing the point of no return, her feet shuffled a step closer so she could see better.
The slight movement caught his attention. His head jerked in her direction. And Lainey felt the world around her shift when their eyes connected.
His eyes—which, in the stream of moonlight, she now saw were blue—widened.
And then, with a roar that she felt shake the walls of the house, the alien Ambassador began to cum.
Chapter Five
Disbelief.
Disbelief so baffling, so incredible that Kirov’s brain—for a blissful, rare moment—completely shut down. Quiet nothingness as he orgasmed so hard his spine arched off his sleeping platform.
Yet, he never looked away from the human female watching him from the shadows outside his dwelling.
His gaze was locked tight on her own, rapt, ensnared, as his dormant Instinct awakened for the first and only time in his lifespan.
His mate, hisluxiva.
Fates, he’d found her!
A revelation. A before and an after, so clear and startling that already Kirov wondered how he’d lived before that moment.
From the time he’d been a youth, he’d heard that the awakening of a Luxirian’s Instinct was like coming to life. A breath of life, straight from the Fates.
But Kirov didn’t think it was like a breath from the Fates. No, it was more like a shroud being ripped from his eyes, from his body, one he’d been cloaked in, smothered in for his entire life without realizing it.
True freedom, true purpose.Thatwas what he felt at that life-altering moment.
When the last pulsings of his powerful orgasm died down and after he’d sufficiently covered his abdomen in cum, he was still wrapped in that haze of disbelief.
That moment of brief inaction cost him.
The female fled from her spying place before he could blink.
Nix!
Kirov growled, springing from his sleeping platform and tearing from his quarters, towards the central hub, and to the front door of his dwelling.
He almost tore the door off its tracks in his desperation to reach her.
He saw her.
The human female was just rounding the alley between his and Cruxan’s—thankfully empty—dwelling.
Kirov didn’t think. How could he when all the blood had rushed from his mind to his cock? When his Instinct—a strange, dizzying, powerful force within him—demanded that he claim his rightful mate?
Kirov lunged for her before she could fly past the alley corner and grabbed her around the waist, hauling her against his still naked body.
He almost groaned when he scented her, a scent so delicious, soright, that his cock gave a responding throb that threatened to bring him to his knees.
Her shocked gaze collided with his. Kirov growled as his pupils dilated, as his eyes roved over his female’s features for the first time, memorizing them with care.
