“You’re so wet for me, Cora, aren’t you?”

“Mm.” She couldn’t summon a coherent response, but she did manage another thrust of her hips followed by a gasping moan.

Heated quivers rushed through her, an avalanche of sensation.

Close. She was so close to shattering on his hand.

But at the very last second, he withdrew his touch and suddenly lifted her in his arms. He met her gaze, and the lust she saw in his glowing green eyes caused a wave of dizziness to descend.

He was so beside himself with the need to be inside her that he almost looked angry… and yet she knew it was his deep yearning to claim her that was responsible for the serious gleam in his eyes.

Again, she sensed his emotions, but she was starting to feel less afraid of her ability to do so. She’d always been intuitive and empathic, and she used to need days alone to recover after a social event or even just a casual hang-out with one friend. And concerts were a whole other ball game. The barrage of other people’s emotions could overwhelm her at times. Was that why she was able to sense Draevan’s emotions?

The massive alien warrior placed her atop the covers and immediately joined her on the bed. But rather than position himself between her legs and begin thrusting into her center, he pushed her legs apart and situated his head between her thighs.

Oh. Oh my…

She recalled how deliciously his tongue had vibrated as he’d kissed her, and she nearly swooned at the idea of him kissing her down there.

When his lips rested a mere inch from her core, he glanced up and gave her a heated look that robbed her of oxygen. “Fluxx, Cora, I cannot wait to taste you.” Then he surged forward and licked up and down the seam of her nether lips, so slowly, so teasingly.

She clutched the covers, and when he finally touched her clit with his tongue, she thought she might levitate off the bed.

He continued licking up and down, then reached for her center and splayed her slick folds apart. He drew back and stared at her exposed core, his hot breath continually caressing her aching parts.

He delved between her thighs again and got to work, circling her sensitive button with his tongue as he held her wide open for his ministrations. She flushed, knowing that he had such an up-close and personal view of the area, but she was too far gone to protest, too eager to experience more firm laps of his tongue on her clit.

She hadn’t expected this.

She’d anticipated perhaps just a little foreplay before he claimed her, but she hadn’t believed he would feast on her pussy as though he were a starving man finally being given his first proper meal in ages.

When his tongue started vibrating, she honestly thought she might pass out. Oh, my God. She writhed on the bed, reaching down to wind her fingers through his hair. As she clutched his head, her center kept lurching into his mouth, a steady motion as she gyrated against him, seeking more, seeking everything.

As he crouched between her thighs and continued pleasuring her, she caught sight of his muscular buttocks and couldn’t help but admire his body. He was a masculine work of art, perfectly formed and mesmerizing in his own right.

“Come for me, sweet Cora,” he murmured as he continued circling her clit with his vibrating tongue, applying just the right amount of pressure. “Come for me.”

He inserted the tip of one finger into her core, driving gently in and out, as he maintained the fast rhythm of his licks to her sensitive button.

She whimpered as the first wave of her release built inside her, swelling until it threatened to crash through her senses. She tightened her hands in his hair when the euphoria finally hit her, a violent shattering that tore a rasping cry from her throat.

As she came against Draevan’s mouth, he added another digit to her core and pushed a bit deeper, and God, how she felt stretched from just two of his fingers. She undulated on the bed as the last blissful wave of pleasure coursed through her, leaving her weightless and lightheaded in the aftermath of the sweetest ecstasy she’d ever known.

Draevan gradually withdrew his fingers from her core, then leaned back to stare at her. He held her gaze as he licked her essence from his lips. She felt her eyes widen as a full-body flush surged through her, causing her to feel even more faint. Was it possible to pass out from a really good orgasm? She was honestly starting to wonder.

He shifted beside her before lifting her in his arms. A soft sigh left her as he arranged her on his lap, holding her close, cradling her to his chest. She leaned into him, resting her head on his chest. His heart beat rapidly beneath her ear, a testament to his own excitement.

“My sweet Cora,” he murmured against her ear.

Then he pressed a quick kiss to the crown of her hair and hugged her even tighter.

Chapter 9

Draevan couldn’t seem to stop running his hands through Cora’s soft hair, rubbing her back, and caressing her arms. He just enjoyed touching her and holding her close. The intimacy was transcendent in a way he’d never anticipated. And to think he’d questioned his ability to love a female. Yes, it was much too soon to claim he loved Cora, as they scarcely knew one another yet, but he could easily imagine the tender deepening of their bond. Hope filled him as he realized he wasn’t so battle-hardened after all.

Despite the darkness inside him, the violent remnants from the war that haunted him, he was capable of feeling affection for a woman. He pressed his face into Cora’s hair and breathed deep of her sweet, feminine scent. Another sense of possessiveness for the little human swept through him. He would never let her go, and he would always protect her.

When Cora suddenly shifted on his lap, his balls drew up tight with sensation and his cock hardened further. Fluxx. He was eager to be inside her, pounding her hard as he claimed her as his mate for all time.
