ReBOrB

Afterward, Reb thought they'd fallen asleep for a few moments. Until Cammy's stomach rumbled. He smiled over her head. Their bodies were entangled. He both felt and heard his mate's sigh.

"Now what?" she asked.

His eyebrows rose. He chuckled. "Now I feed you, program your voice and palm print access in the hover computer, and we go bathe in the lake."

Cammy started wiggling, untangling her legs and arms from his. She pushed against him… and he tumbled off the edge of the bed and onto the floor. She giggled. It was an amazing sound that sped his pulse.

"I need food. Hurry! I'm starving and it better be more than hardtack and water! Oh, and a bath. I want a bath. Now! Let's move it!" She jumped up and insisted on helping him put away the bed so they could get around easier on the ship.

It wasn't long before he'd fed her some of the meat and fruit he'd taken from the farmer's cottage. Reb had left the farmer and his wife with a credit chip. It would take them a few days to find it, but it was his way of paying for all the supplies he'd taken.

With Cameron healed—Reb didn't plan to go back. There was no need he couldn't fill with fish from the lake, fruit from the vine, and a little foraging. Whatever he could get from the farm was no longer worth the risk of getting caught.

Her voice and palm prints had been entered—so if he had to leave Cammy on the ship—she could take care of her needs. Whether that meant raising the blinds, answering any calls from the DoMicile, or getting out of the hover for any reason. She wouldn't be locked inside.

While she took care of some of those needs, Reb set out small sensors. They would provide an electronic warning if someone approached either the hover or their small section of the lake. The sensors wouldn't register unless the intruder was humanoid—or was a creature of roughly the same mass as a man. The electronic device would also give them an extended visual of the area.

After they finished everything, Cameron walked beside him to the lake, twitching with excitement. She was thrilled he managed to get her some hard-soled slippers, and some pants she said were just like capri-length leggings on Earth. She clutched another of the shirts that were stored in the supply closet. Excited she could bathe and put on clean clothing.

His mate stopped frequently to inspect the flowers, rocks, and the few bugs they saw… and the entire time, she chattered. He couldn't help but grin at her. Cammy was healthy, happy, and thrilled to be alive.

"So, the bands on my body… you control them?"

Reb almost missed the question. And the opportunity. "The bands do several things. The most important is that they keep you healthy. If you become injured, get bitten by a poisonous insect, or eat something that doesn't agree with you, the bands will heal you. If you are ever in pain, of any kind, or if you are sad… you can touch the bands on my arm and be relieved of your pain and sorrow."

"Wow. That is pretty cool."

"It is very cool. I especially like that my dark bands have a connection to yours. They hold a link from one to the other. That link means that if you ever get lost—" He paused and his voice became softer, "Or if someone ever tries to take you from me—I can follow that connection and find you."

"Oh good. Does it work the other way too? If you get taken or lost, can I find you?"

He frowned and was silent for several moments. "I have no idea. I don't think so. But that is a good question. I know the links allow me to do this…"

Cammy jumped, and he felt his mate's surprise when the bands rippled over her skin. He pushed them from her wrists… up her arm… and sent one to her breasts and the other toward the silky heat between her legs. The mating bands started to vibrate and twist over her flesh, sliding through the moisture gathered at the juncture of her thighs, tugging at her nipples and clit.

She shuddered and moaned. But kept walking… her head down as she concentrated on her footsteps… almost running toward the lake. He sped up to keep pace with her.

With Cammy's mind linked to his, he could feel every sensation as she felt it. The mating bands pulsed, vibrated, and even moved to her entrance and slipped inside her. The motion teased her inside and out. But never allowed her to climax. The pressure would ease off when one more stroke would take her over.

Reb felt Cammy's frustration build. She panted and mewled with need. Standing beside the lake, she shuddered in response to the pleasure he controlled.

Her desire fed his.

Reb whipped his head from side to side, ensuring they were safe. No one was near, and they sheltered in the trees right beside the water. He stripped and made sure the mating bonds continued their throbbing torture. Naked and ready, he appeared in front of her.

Cameron

The damn mating bonds were driving her insane. With Reb naked beside her, Cam started stripping off her clothes before rushing into his arms. "Kiss me," she demanded.

Reb's mouth didn't put out the fire. It made it worse, and she moaned. "More!" Her hands slid over his flesh, tugging him closer. "Hurry," she pleaded.

Reb lifted her into his arms, guiding her legs around his waist. Opening her to him. He wasted no time shifting his pelvis up while pushing her hips down. Burying his cock deep within her body in one thrust!

It felt fantastic. His thick shaft filled her perfectly. She reveled in the hard slap of their bodies, in the slam of his groin against her mound, and his almost violent possession of her. And then he walked the few feet to the lake. Cammy moaned each time his hips rolled.

The water was warm. Reb turned and placed her back on the bank of the lake. Her legs clenched around his hips, her body lay in the soft mud. She didn't care. Cammy needed this. Wanted this. The mating bonds continued to pulse inside and out until her inner muscles spasmed. And yet it still wasn't enough. She arched against Reb and begged, "More! Oh. God. Reb. Pleaseoh, pleaseoh, please!"

She felt the bands respond to her pleas, and the vibration increased as Reb changed his rhythm. He set a low, steady, pounding pace. Deep, driving thrusts kept her poised on the edge of madness, and she begged again. "Harder. Faster. More!"

She felt the tempo change again when he surged over her.

Undulating beneath him, she thrashed her head from side to side and found footing on the lake bank. Cam pushed upward, meeting him stroke for stroke. Between one second and the next, she flew.

Cammy howled and sobbed when she came. The experience shattered what she believed to be physically possible between them. This was so much more than what they'd done this morning.

Reb's mind was open to her. She shuddered through another orgasm when his sensations were shared with her. She writhed in ecstasy for a long moment and then went still. Only moving to drag in a breath.

Reb didn't move. He let her have a minute and simply held her. But she knew he was still hard inside her.

When she shifted on the rock, he stood with her still seated on his cock. He grinned down at her and leaned in to kiss the tip of her nose.

"We aren't finished."

Well, she sure as hell was finished.

Before she could comment, he walked out into the lake with them still connected. She buried her face in his neck and moaned each time his hips rolled. And then the water teased her flesh. Okay, maybe she wasn't done.

Reb lifted her off his body and set her in the lake's warmth. They were standing where it was about waist deep. It wasn't bath water hot, but it was warmer than the air. He cupped water into his hands and sluiced the sweat from her body. Then he did the same to his own, slicking water over his chest and down his arms.

The sight of water droplets gliding down Reb's body snagged her attention.

Her man was mouthwateringly sexy. A slow bead of moisture ran from his chest, down to his stomach. Calling attention to the dusting of dark hair that started below his belly button.

Cammy licked her lips. She put her hands on his chest and backed him up, just a few steps, until the water was knee deep. Then she stepped back. Delighted to watch the water trail down that chest to his thick cock. The shaft jutted fiercely from the coarse, dark hair and his heavy ballsac hung just below. His cock bounced and expanded even more while she watched.

A dark blue vein pulsed along his length, tempting her. She licked her lips in anticipation. The knobbed head glistened with a drop of clear fluid.

Moving closer, she trailed her hand down the center of his chest. Taking her time, slowly gliding over his muscled contours, she paused to rub a finger across his nipples. Then leaned in and licked over them. She bent to trace each one of his ribs with her tongue, smiling as he sucked in his breath and held it. His light blue skin was soft, and that dark spicy scent thrilled her.

She used both fingers and tongue. Rubbing and teasing for long minutes before she dropped her hands to his hard length.

ReBOrB

He growled his delight, overwhelmed by the sensations.

Cammy's wet, warm hands slipped over his shaft and his cock swelled even more.

She stroked, and he couldn't help but groan in ecstasy. Spreading his legs apart to give her unrestricted access to his body, he hissed when she dropped to her knees and looked up with a wicked smile. He wanted to remember that smile forever. The love and laughter in those eyes. The delight she found in his body.

His legs shook, and it took everything he had to hold himself upright when Cammy slipped her lips over the head of his cock. She teased the slit and circled the tip for long moments before swallowing several inches of his shaft. Grasping the base, she ran her hand up and met her mouth as it moved down. Bringing her lips and fist together in the middle. The sensations and slow pumping rhythm overwhelmed him.

Reb remembered he controlled her mating bands. So, he set them to tease her. To stroke her clit and slip in and out of her channel, to vibrate and twist. Cammy hummed her pleasure around his cock.

When he looked down, the sight of Cammy's dark head bobbing over his manhood was almost more than he could bear. He watched her pink and glistening lips slide up and down his straining flesh. The sight of her small tongue darting out to tease the tiny slit in his blood-engorged crown made him grit his teeth.

"Cammy!" The single word burst from his soul. He couldn't take it anymore. "Enough," he growled.

Reaching down, he gently pulled his mate to her feet and kissed her hungrily. He inserted his hand between their slippery bodies to palm her breast, pinching the nipple between his thumb and finger. Adding his touch to the band's sensual torment.

Moaning, she shifted against him.

Reb guided her back to the creek bank. He turned her around, so she was facing away from him. Then showed her where to place her elbows on the area of soft grass. He stepped up behind her. Cammy's ass was up in the air, at just the right angle. He pulled her hips toward him, using his knees to open her stance. Taking his cock in hand, he pressed forward, gliding inside her slick passage. They both moaned.

Reb couldn't wait any longer. He plunged in and out of her clasping channel, rocking his hips. Faster and faster, he pounded into her until his release was close. Then he leaned over her back, wrapped his arm around her waist, and slid his fingers between her folds to stroke her clit. Dropping his head, he nuzzled the side of her neck with his lips and tongue. Felt her body tense in readiness for her orgasm. Once more, he pushed the mating bonds. Making them go wild. Vibrating, plunging, pushing her pleasure higher.

Reb rode Cammy's climax and pushed her into another. When she shattered a second time, he let go of his control and pumped his cock furiously, finally allowing his body to explode.

Cammy collapsed. Reb slid down into the warm water and pulled her into his lap.

It took them several minutes before they could move. Or talk. Reb rubbed his hand up and down her back, comforting her.

Cammy sighed. "I could stay here forever. But how long do you think it will be until I can see Casey?"

"I'm not sure. I don't think too long…"

Reb sat up straight and hissed. "One of my brothers is contacting me mind-to-mind. The Captain needs our help!"
