I was shaking my head, but not really knowing the answer to that but I hoped and prayed and trusted the men knew what they were doing. “We need this, so we don’t get sick. I promise to explain so much once I return. Love you.”
He hugged me tighter. “Love you too, Ella. Thank you for finding me.”
“We need to go,” Derrial added.
I broke from my dad, feeling an urgency flooding my veins like I didn’t know anything about what I’d just drank, and I needed to know what I’d gotten myself into. “We’ll be back when we can. You’ll be safe here.”
I turned and left my dad behind just as a strange tingling wormed through the pit of my stomach.
Thane took my hand in his, and we rushed outside and toward the ship in the large back yard, hidden from sight with the reflective shields.
That earlier tingling spread through me faster and warmed me up so fast, I was breathing faster. “I feel strange.”
Looking over at Derrial, at the corded muscles of his arms, the strength in his body, I was suddenly engulfed with heat, my nipples puckering, and all I could think about was his mouth on me… on all of me.
I shook my head. “What was in that drink?”
“The herb we used can have some side effects when used fresh, which is why in the lab we always used the dried version,” Corran explained.
“What sort of side effects?” I demanded.
Derrial’s fingers holding my wrist twitched, and that slight movement sent my body into a shudder so deep and arousing, a moan slipped past my lips, and I squeezed my thighs so tight, I was convinced I was about to orgasm from a simple touch.
All three men stared at me with desire flaring in their eyes, and I couldn’t help but love the way they looked at me right then. Even if my body felt like it might self-combust.
“What’s happening to me?”
“The herb can heighten your arousal significantly.”
“Significantly?” That idea terrified me. “How long will this last? Oh my god, you gave me Viagra!”
“Get inside the ship,” Derrial commanded and dragged me through the open door, my feet stumbling after me.
“What’s Viagra?” Corran studied me intently.
I leaned against the cool inside wall of the shuttle, needing to stop burning up. “A tablet taken by men usually to help them stay… erect for longer.” I rolled my back across the wall. “Can someone die from being so horny they might explode?”
Thane laughed, and the sound was so damn sexy, my skin pricked with excitement. All I could think about was taking off his clothes.
He strode to the driver’s seat, and I chewed on my lower lip as I stared at his tight ass in those black pants.
“Why’s it so hot in here? Switch the air con on to max.”
Derrial stared at me like he had no clue what I was talking about, but I was already pulling at the buttons of my shirt, tugging the collar away, needing to cool down.
The small vibrations of the ship started, and we ascended into the air.
“Come, take a seat.” Corran’s hand slid to my lower back, and his touch ignited a spark of shivers jolting through me. I turned on him so fast, I scared myself. But just having his hands on me felt incredible. Pinpricks coated my bare skin with anticipation. That drink had my body reacting so quickly, it spun my head.
I looked over at him as he sat, and I did the same. His eyes hazed over like he saw nothing else but me. He leaned in closer, his lips capturing mine, and I softened against him, thrumming like a leaf in a storm.
“I need you,” I breathed desperately into his mouth.
His lips left a trail of kisses down my cheek and found the tender spot right between my neck and collarbone. I moaned louder, and the apex between my thighs pulsed wildly.
I was on fire.
Fingers pulled at my shirt ferociously, buttons ripped free, popping around us, but I didn’t care. Not when Corran’s hand claimed my shoulder and dragged the strap of my bra down my arm, not when I pushed myself up and over to straddle Corran’s lap.
