Karn! whispered a little voice in her head as she finally came fully awake. Your new bodyslave—remember? You asked him to sleep with you and now you’re rubbing against him like a she-slink in heat!

Deeply embarrassed, Lilli pulled away and clamped her thighs closed. What was wrong with her? She had never done anything like this before. Then again, she’d never slept with a male in her bed before either. But having a male in her bed couldn’t explain her wanton behavior, or the tingling neediness she felt in her nipples and pussy…

“Hey, Lilli?” the big Kindred rumbled. Taking her by the shoulder, he tugged gently until she turned to face him.

“I’m sorry.” Lilli could feel how hot her cheeks were—it almost felt like she had a fever! “I…I didn’t mean to,” she said, unable to meet his eyes. “I was…I was only half awake and I didn’t…didn’t know what I was doing.”

“It felt to me like you were rubbing your soft little pussy against my shaft,” Karn murmured. He looked down at the white silk sleep trousers he was wearing and Lilli was mortified to see that there was a wet spot over the straining bulge of his morning erection.

“Oh my Goddess—did I do that?” She felt like she wanted to sink through the bed and then keep on going, through the building beneath them and on into the ground, straight to the center of the planet. Anything so she wouldn’t have to see the embarrassing result of her morning desire. “I’m so sorry!” she told Karn. “I never meant to—I mean I don’t…don’t know why I would do such a thing.”

“Maybe because you were feeling excited?” he suggested. He lifted her chin with one finger so that she had to meet his eyes. “Hey, Lilli—don’t look so upset. I don’t mind.”

“You…you don’t?” Lilli looked up at him, searching his gold and blue eyes to see if he was telling the truth.

“Hell, no.” He gave her that charming, crooked grin of his and she felt herself melting a little.

“I…but I ruined your sleep trousers,” she pointed out.

“No you didn’t. And even if you had, I wouldn’t care,” Karn murmured. “I think it’s damn sexy your little pussy got so hot and wet when you rubbed against me. Hell, if I hadn’t had the trousers on, I might have slipped right in the way you were working yourself on my shaft.”

Lilli looked at him with wide eyes.

“Then it’s a really good thing you had them on! Mistresses are never supposed to let their bodyslaves penetrate them.”

“Of course not,” Karn agreed easily. “But they don’t generally let their bodyslaves sleep with them, either—do they?”

Lilli bit her lip.

“I…I guess not. I was just so upset last night and you were so sweet about holding me and making me feel better. I…I didn’t want you to leave.”

“That’s all right, little Mistress—I didn’t want to leave either,” he murmured and brushed a strand of hair out of her eyes. “You’re beautiful in the morning—you know that?”

Lilli blushed again, but this time in pleasure.

“You really shouldn’t say such things to me,” she murmured.

“But shouldn’t a bodyslave always tell his Mistress the truth?” Karn countered. “How can I lie when you look so fucking gorgeous?”

“Karn…” Reaching up, she cupped his cheek in one palm. She liked the rough scratch of his morning whiskers against her palm. “You’re beautiful too,” she whispered. “Or, well, handsome, I guess you’d say.”

“Thank you.” He turned his head and pressed a kiss to her palm.

“You know, when Mother said I had to get a bodyslave, I didn’t expect to like him,” Lilli admitted. “I’ve always been a little bit afraid of males—maybe because I was raised in an all-female convent. I liked one of my mother’s bodyslaves who was kind to me, but she sent him to the mines years ago and I never really got to know any others.” She sighed. “What I’m trying to say is, I never thought I’d feel this way about a male—especially my own bodyslave.”

“And what way are you feeling, little Mistress?” His mismatched eyes were half-lidded as he asked the question.

“I…I don’t know,” Lilli confessed. “I just know that when I’m with you I feel safe and protected. And I like talking to you and being around you.” She shook her head. “I don’t have a word for all that, I don’t think. I just know I want to be near you.”

“Want to be near you too, baby,” he murmured, stroking her hair again. “And it’s okay not to have words for it—the feeling is enough, I think.”

“I shouldn’t let you call me baby or pet me like this,” Lilli whispered, nuzzling against his hand. “And I shouldn’t…shouldn’t feel so strongly about a bodyslave. Especially when I only just met you yesterday.”

“I know,” Karn said simply. “But I don’t see you kicking me out of your bed, Mistress.”
