“Ellet?” The name sounded oddly familiar, even though she couldn’t remember where she’d heard it.

Korum smiled. “She’s our human biology expert in Lenkarda. Her lab designs many of the drugs I’ve given you in the past, as well as the one I just gave your dad. She’s excellent at what she does and knows more about human health than all of your doctors put together.”

Something nagged at Mia, some elusive memory that she couldn’t place. After trying to remember for a second, she gave up and returned to the issue at hand. “Oh, I see . . . Yeah, if she could take a look at Marisa, that would be phenomenal. Would she seriously do that? Come all the way out here for this?”

He shrugged. “She owes me a few favors.”

“Is there anyone in Lenkarda who doesn’t owe you a few favors?” Mia asked wryly, staring at him. Her lover always seemed to have something up his sleeve.

“Not many,” Korum admitted, smiling at her. “I believe in having leverage – comes in handy in situations like this. Of course, Ellet would probably come out here regardless. She has a soft spot for pregnant humans.”

Mia grinned, wanting to hug and kiss him in gratitude. She didn’t want to fight with him; she loved him too much. Giving in to the urge, she got up and sat down on his lounge chair, ignoring his wet shorts pressing against her dress. Taking his head between her hands, she pulled his face closer and gave him a tender kiss on the lips. “Thank you, Korum,” she said softly, looking him in the eyes. “I really appreciate everything you’ve done for me and my family.”

He smiled, and his eyes held a warm amber glow. “Of course, my darling . . .”

“I love you,” Mia told him sincerely. “I love you so much, and I’m sorry about everything that happened before. You’re right – I should’ve trusted you more. Do you think you’ll be able to forgive me some day?”

It was the first time she had apologized for spying on him, and she could see that she’d pleasantly surprised him. Raising his hand, he lightly stroked her cheek. “Of course,” he said softly. “Rationally, I know why you did what you did, but I have a difficult time being rational when it comes to you. When you first agreed to work with the Resistance, I let anger at your betrayal cloud my thinking instead of giving you more time to adjust to our relationship. I’m sorry for that, and for the stress and worry I caused you as a result. But I’m happy you’re here now, with me . . .”

“I’m happy too,” Mia said, and she knew he could see the full depth of her feelings on her face. “I really am . . .”

His eyes flaring brighter, Korum leaned toward her and kissed her hungrily, as though he wanted to consume her. His hands curled around her shoulders, and he pulled her closer, dragging her onto his lap, his erection pressing into her through the wet material of his swimming trunks.

Feeling buffeted by his passion, Mia could only cling to him as he greedily devoured her mouth, h

is hands roaming over her body, ripping off the clothing that prevented him from touching her naked skin. His hot mouth moved to her neck, nipped the skin lightly, and she cried out, her head falling back as if it were too heavy for her neck to support. She felt unbelievably hot, like she was burning inside from a liquid flame, every inch of her sensitized and craving his touch. He seemed to feel the same, his cock throbbing against her leg and his hands moving over her almost roughly.

Her fingers curved into claws, dug into the back of his shoulders. “Please, Korum . . .” She wanted him inside her with a desperation that didn’t fully make sense. “Please . . .”

He rose, still holding her in his arms, and flipped her over, putting her down on the lounge chair on all fours. And then he was bent over her, driving into her with one powerful thrust, his hard penis penetrating her without restraint.

Mia gasped, shocked at the sudden entry, her inner muscles straining with the effort to adjust to his thickness, but he didn’t give her any time. Grasping her hips, he fucked her relentlessly, his hips hammering at her with such force that she couldn’t catch her breath, utterly overwhelmed by the sensations. She could hear his harsh breathing and her own screams, and then her whole world consisted of nothing more than the physical, the pleasure and the pain intermingling until there was no way to tell them apart and one could not exist without the other . . . until she was nothing more than an animal, besieged by the most basic need.

It seemed to go on forever, and then he came with a guttural groan, grinding into her as though trying to merge them together. The pulsations of his cock inside her sent her over the edge, and the orgasm tore through her body, leaving her weak and shaking in its wake. Only his hands on her hips kept her from collapsing onto the lounge chair, her arms and legs trembling too much to support her weight.

After about a minute, his breathing had calmed and he withdrew from her, separating their bodies. Mia felt too worn out to move, so she was glad when he picked her up and carried her into the house.

Wrapping her arms around his neck, she mumbled into his shoulder, “Was this what you had in mind when you said you had plans?”

“Pretty much,” Korum admitted, walking up to the second floor. “I did envision something more civilized, but I don’t seem to have any control over myself when it comes to you. I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

He had, a little, but it had only enhanced the pleasure. And besides, she felt perfectly fine now, with all traces of soreness seemingly gone. “No,” Mia reassured him. “I loved it.”

He walked into a large, luxuriously appointed bathroom and placed her on her feet next to a large, claw-footed tub. “That’s good,” he said, turning on the water and smiling at her. “Still, I think you could use a nice bath, and so could I.”

And, as Mia watched, his cock began to harden again.

Chapter 17

Marisa and Connor arrived first, their 2012 Toyota pulling into the driveway five minutes before six o’clock. Korum was finishing setting the table, so Mia came out to greet them by herself.

“Oh my God, Mia! Baby sis, it’s so good to see you! You look phenomenal! What has he been feeding you?” Marisa burst out as soon as she exited the car. “And holy cow, look at this place! He must be a gazillionnaire!”

Laughing, Mia gave her sister a big hug, sobering a bit when she felt the unusual fragility of her frame. “Marisa! Oh, it’s so good to see you too! And Connor!”

Smiling, her brother-in-law bent down to hug her too. “There’s my favorite sister-in-law. How are you?”

“Oh, I’m doing great! Here, let’s go inside! Korum is just putting the finishing touches on the dinner – which should be amazing, by the way.”
