“I’m sorry,” he murmured into her hair. “I shouldn’t have left you. I will never leave you like that again.”
“Seke.” Her voice choked with emotion. “I’m sorry I pushed you. I shouldn’t—”
“Shh. Don’t apologize. You did nothing wrong. I alone am to blame.”
“No. Stop shouldering the galaxy.” In the dark, she sought his face and laid her palm against his smooth cheek. “I will share your burdens.”
Seke went still. “I believe you would.” His voice was hoarse. “But I would never ask that of you, little one. A Zandian male protects his mate.”
A burst of joy exploded in her chest. “Mate?”
“Will you wear my crystals?”
“Yes,” she gasped, hardly daring to believe her ears. Happy tears sprang to her eyes and coated her lashes.
His lips found her neck, and he nipped her, lowering her hips until her mouth came flush with his. He claimed it, tongue licking between her lips, lips demanding. She lost herself in the kiss, hardly noticing he’d set her on her feet and was backing her up to the wall.
The sound of fabric tearing made her jump. Seke ripped her robe from her shoulders. He spun her around. “Hands on the wall, little one,” he breathed her in ear.
She flattened her palms against the wall, arching and pressing her bottom back at Seke.
Sh
e heard the rustle of discarded clothing, and Seke’s arms came around hers, forearms planted on the wall just outside her hands.
“Spread your legs, Leora. I need to put my cock in you now or I won’t go on breathing.”
“I’m ready,” she whispered. Her pussy, already moist from their kiss, had turned molten the moment he’d given the order to put her hands against the wall. His dominance triggered instant arousal.
Without needing his hands to guide him, he positioned his cock at her entrance and thrust upward.
She cried out with pleasure as he nearly took her off her feet.
“I’m going to veck you so hard you’ll go hoarse from screaming.” Seke’s coarse, growled speech preceded a bite on her ear.
She moaned her assent, offering him full control of her body. He gave her his cock in deep, hard thrusts, wrapping one arm around her waist to hold her steady for the assault.
“This pussy belongs to me, now,” he growled. “Doesn’t it?”
“Yes, master.”
He chuckled. “I am still your master, aren’t I?”
Her eyes rolled back in her head as waves of pleasure swept through her. “Yes.”
“I’m going to veck you like this anytime I like. Anywhere. In every position.” It was a good thing he held her up, because her legs had turned to jelly. “I’m going to give you more pleasure than you know possible. And you’ll learn to pleasure me.”
“Yes, yes!”
“Tell me what you need, sweet Leora.”
“You,” she panted. “I just need you.”
He vecked her so hard stars danced behind her eyes.
“You have me.”
He grabbed a hoverseat and dropped into it, seating her on his lap, facing away from him. “Ride my cock, love.” He gripped her hips and moved her rapidly up and down over his thick cock.
