Touching her?
Marking her?
Making her love him?
My clothes hit the ground as I walked, torn from my body. I ripped the fabric, the sound of rending and tearing a fine tribute to my current mood. I gave in, stopped fighting the need building inside me and let the monster free. It was good I wasn’t an Atlan, for I now understood what it was to be a beast.
Naked, I entered the room to find Erica clean and wet, pressed with her back to the wall of the cleansing tube. Ronan was on his knees, his mouth on her sweet clit, his fingers pumping in and out of my pussy, her hands fisted in his hair. Her eyes were closed, those beautiful, expressive dark blue eyes. Storm clouds. The color was unheard of on Prillon Prime and I found them exotic and beautiful.
“Open your eyes, mate. Look at me as he makes you come.” I recognized the command in my voice, was shocked by the sound. I had always imagined I would speak in gentle tones to a female, not this rough, dominating tenor.
For a moment I thought I had scared her, but then her eyes opened and she looked at me, right at me, and I saw no fear there—just raw need. She was not averse to two mates. Two lovers. Doubly demanding and dominant.
Our gazes locked and Ronan applied himself to his task, his fingers moving in and out of her pussy with thick, wet sounds as I watched her eyes grow dark, her cheeks flush, her nipples pebble. But her gaze held, our connection somehow seeming to arouse her more.
Ronan growled, the sound very satisfied just as Erica’s body shuddered, every muscle going tight, her large, full breasts swaying with invitation. Her keening cry as she came all over his mouth and fingers made my cock literally pulse and leap toward her, a drop of pre-cum on the tip.
Her cum. Her seed. Her male. I was hers now. Gods help her.
Without asking, I moved to Ronan, who was still on his knees. Yanking him to his feet, I shoved him behind me and out of the shower tube. I stepped within and faced our mate. He protested, so I held out the anal plug and instructions for him. He took them and I stepped under the water, quickly washing. Watching Erica from Earth the entire time. I would not touch something so beautiful and precious with blood on my hands.
“Gods bless us, Kaed. Did you read this?” Ronan asked from behind me. I could hear him stripping, hear the eagerness in his voice. He’d entered the tube with his uniform on, probably so focused on our mate’s needs he didn’t take the time to strip.
“Yes.” I did not take my eyes from Erica’s. I had yet to touch her, the need building in me like a bomb about to explode. Clean now, I gave her my full attention. “Do you want this, Erica? Want me? Want us? Because if I touch you, there is no going back.”
She lifted her chin, the top of her head not even reaching my shoulder. Her size was larger than Chloe, another from Earth. Every part of her was bigger. Big hips, big breasts, big ass. More for me to grab, to grip, to suck. Lick. Fuck. Her gaze was not just full of desire, but challenge. “Yes. I know what I want. I’m not a child, Commander.”
“Kaed.” I didn’t want her to call me commander. I was not her commander. Or Karter. With her, like this, I was a warrior, a male, and nothing more. “I know I told you Karter earlier, but my mind was in battle mode. I would prefer you call me Kaed, my first name.”
“Kaed.” The sound of my name on her lips made me shudder; still I did not touch her, allowing the anticipation to bubble through my veins like the strongest drug.
“I am your primary male, Erica.” I tipped my head out of the tube. “Ronan is your second. Do you understand what that means?” I had to know that she understood what was about to happen. Ronan was,
perhaps, even more stubborn than I. If we claimed her, neither of us would be gentle with our words. We were hard, inside and out.
Her skin turned an adorable shade of pink that I had seen only a handful of times before on the other human females I knew. It crept from her cheeks, down her neck and all the way to the hard tips of her breasts. Was our curvy mate feeling embarrassment? Desire? Perhaps both?
“Warden Egara explained it to me. I knew… I knew there would be two of you.” The last three words came out with a wobble in her breath, as if she was having trouble getting air into her lungs. As if she were pleased with the idea.
Good. So was I.
“Gods be damned, Kaed. Get on with it!” Ronan growled from behind me, but I had him blocked. There was no way for him to reach Erica without my permission.
“I will not rush this, Ronan,” I growled.
“She is aroused and primed. I have her taste on my tongue. I could have given her three more orgasms by now. If you don’t want her, get out of my way.”
“She is mine.”
“And mine. Or have you forgotten that?”
I frowned, watching as the mindless lust faded from Erica’s eyes. The impertinence of her words annoyed me even more. “Do you two need to get a room? I can come back later.” I frowned. A room? We were in a room.
“No.”
“No.”
We spoke as one. In this, Ronan and I were in perfect agreement. I didn’t want her going anywhere.
