“Look how he suffers with so much skin exposed.” With an extended finger, Casey stroked the large part of his giant rod that did not fit in her mouth. “Take pity on him and help me.” Casey took him inside her mouth again, staring up at Aria as she slid her lips over him.
Aria reached forward with her extended index finger and touched the exposed, deeply veined flesh jutting from Casey’s mouth.
Hot. And incredibly hard.
Aria’s eyelids closed as heat rushed through every part of her. She couldn’t believe how much she wanted to wrap her mouth around one side of him while Casey took the other side. The two of them would slide up and down, their hands wrapped around him to cradle the entire length in warmth, until he grunted and shot his load into the air. How far would such a huge penis send his stream of semen? How much would there be?
She had to fight the incredible urge to join the other woman in pleasuring that giant penis. Even with all these people watching.
But that’s all it would be. A penis. If she were going to have sex with a man, it would be because she was attracted to him—all of him.
Aria shook her head and drew her hand away.
“Ah, too bad.” Casey wrapped her hand around Darrick’s member and tugged on it, leading him along behind her. “Come on, Darrick, sweetie. I bet one of the other women will be interested.”
The other crewmembers followed them out, and the door slid closed behind them.
Aria drew in a deep breath. The other women Casey referred to must be Eva and the others. Aria shivered, wondering where they were and how they were coping. Even though she hadn’t known them very long, Aria had felt a connection with those women. If she’d met them back home, maybe they could have become friends.
Her stomach knotted. Oh, God, if this was real, then she would probably never see her home again. Her small, cozy townhouse might not be much, but she’d been there for eight years now and it was the only home she’d ever really known.
And her kitty, Rex. Marcia next door was taking care of him right now, but what would she do if Aria never showed up to take him back? She knew Marcia would probably keep him, but Aria would miss her little furry friend. She loved the little guy.
Her hands clenched into fists. This was so unfair. She had friends at home. People who would miss her.
She sucked in a deep breath and tears prickled at her eyes. Well, maybe not so much friends as acquaintances and work associates. She tended to work a lot, which left little time for socializing. Still, she did go out after work every Friday with her work-mates. At least for an hour or so. Most weeks, anyway. They would miss her.
Her chest tightened as she realized, maybe they wouldn’t. She’d received fifty birthday greetings this year, but all of them were on Facebook. She didn’t have any close friends. Deep down she was afraid to let anyone get too close. Because if they left, it would hurt too much. Now, it was too late. She’d disappear without a trace and no one would care. Or barely even notice.
God, if she ever made it back home, she’d change. She’d spend more time with people rather than work. Make true friends. Not just acquaintances and Facebook connections.
Chapter Five
Tai took a moment to settle his pulse. Watching Aria flush with excitement while she watched Casey stroking her own breasts had sent his blood boiling. Aria had watched with heated fascination as Baryn had worked Casey to near orgasm. Tai’s cock had hardened like a rock when Casey had coaxed Aria to touch Darrick’s erection. When she had considered taking him in her mouth, Tai had almost burst on the spot.
He stepped toward her, knowing he had to touch her. He slid his hands over her shoulders. She stiffened immediately and shrugged away, wrapping her arms around herself. He dropped his hands to his sides as she turned to face him, a scowl marring her delicate features.
“Why did you expose me to that?” she demanded.
“Aria, I know that you sense your tanash’ae. You probably have for several weeks now. You won’t recognize the feeling, but it will translate to a longing for sexual pleasure. What the crew has to offer won’t totally satisfy that need—only your tanash’ae can do that—but they can reduce the ache to a tolerable level.”
Her fingers tightened around her arms as she hugged herself tighter.
“I can’t just go to bed with one of those strangers.”
A devilish grin turned up his lips. “No one said it had to be just one.”
She sighed shakily. “It would only be one.”
He raised an eyebrow.
“You mean you’ll consider—?”
“No, I mean if I… I mean I won’t…” She groaned and paced across the room. “I’m just not comfortable with the idea of being intimate with a stranger.”
As he watched her, he realized it was more than just arousal sending her off balance right now. She was still suffering from the shock of being torn from her home. From the idea of being among aliens and going to a new world. And she had to be resenting the loss of control she felt.
But addressing any of those things would not help matters. She needed time to get used to the idea. And once she and Zander consummated their bond, it would be easier for her to come to terms with her new situation.
