Kovas

KOVAS

I meant what I said. She was irresistible. Everything from her voice to the way her legs twitched beneath my tongue made me want more. I had to have her for myself.

The marks from my bite back in the cell only made me crazier.

It wasn't a proper claiming. And even here, I couldn't risk it.

And all I wanted was to mark her, make her mine forever, bind her to me completely.

I wanted her to know it, to feel it like I did. I would have done anything to please her. The only thing I was concerned with in that dingy inn room was her reaching orgasm as many times as I could get her to.

I pulled out of her, ready to flip her over on her side, when she backed up only to move onto on her hands and knees before me. As she licked the tip of my cock, tasted her own fluids, I groaned as I relaxed into her mouth.

Her lips slid deeper onto me, and I met her gaze as she pulled her mouth off me, smiling while she licked and sucked my cock.

She likes this.

I was too hard. She was going to make me come before I was ready. Gently, I pushed her mouth away from my cock and brought her up on her knees.

Her lips met mine, and for a long moment, I reveled in her sweet taste, licking the inside of her mouth while she quivered in my grasp. Slowly, I moved down the curve of her neck, kissing and nipping, drunk on the taste of her skin.

My hand moved down to her pussy, feeling her wetness slip against my fingertips as her fingernails dug into my back.

"Kovas," she whispered between heavy breaths.

"Yes, Mera." I returned her call, my breath hot on the new bite I had left.

"I need you."

I pulled back from our embrace and looked at her deeply, my hand cupped the side of her face as our bodies pressed together.

For the first time, I felt something switch off inside me, like my walls were fully down. She could make me weak with just one glance. I always thought that would be a weakness, for some other being to make me falter, I was wrong.

Mera only made me stronger.

I had the most amazing being in the entire galaxy right in front of me. She was a strong, emotionally open, brave woman, who had put her life on the line for me many times without even knowing the depths of who I was.

I didn't know the small things about her either, and as I laid her back on the bed, I wondered about them.

What was her favorite color? Did she have a favorite memory of her time on Thodos III? What was her last name, if she had one?

The trivial details mattered, but not as much as the connection we had formed.

Without breaking her gaze, I slipped back inside her, and she gasped, taking in my breath as our lips lightly brushed against each other.

The experience of Mera was one that ripped me from my daily concerns and broke my stoic nature. I couldn't help it. She had a knack for taking me outside myself, centering me in the present moment.

My hunger for her before had been a fire that scorched over us like a storm. This was a slow burn, deeper, all consuming.

She sighed, throwing her head back while I pressed my hips down and ground on her clit.

My mouth moved from her lips to her beautiful, soft breasts, my tongue flicking over her nipples while she screamed and put her hands on the wall to hold herself steady while I thrust in and out of her.

It wasn't enough. I needed more. I picked her up and kept my arms on her back while I knelt on the bed. I sat back on my calves and lifted her to straddle me. Her head was slightly above mine, giving me the opportunity to look up at her.

"My beautiful Mera."

Lips slightly parted, she lifted herself up and down on me, gliding along my shaft effortlessly. Every part of us seemed to fit as I pressed my head on her chest, listening to her heartbeat while she continued riding me.

I dug my fingers into her hips, pulling her down harder, grinding against her clit until she shrieked, her trembling body going rigid against my chest as the orgasms washed over her.

Once her breathing slowed again, I lifted her off me completely, laying her back on the bed, returning my attention to her sweet pussy.

My teeth grazed along her inner thigh as I played with her clit with my fingers.

"Kovas, please," she whimpered.

"Do you want me to stop?" Blowing cool air over her puffy lips, I raised my head to check on her.

Her head thrashed back and forth on the pillow. "No, please, more. I need more."

"As my kitten demands."

I sucked up her nectar, losing myself entirely in her sighs. Nothing existed outside that inn's room, nothing outside of her.

The feeling of the sheets beneath me disappeared, the sound of cold air blowing from the vents droned out, and the chatter and debauchery of the drunken idiots downstairs ceased to exist.

We were in another plane, like our souls had left our bodies and were mating with each other on a level no one else could touch.

When I raised my head and she took my cheeks in her hands before I slid back into her, she became my world.

She was everything to me. She was my oxygen, my water, and the nourishment I needed to continue going. How could I have faltered with such a strong force beside me?

"Bite me again," she begged, staring deeply into my arms.

My lips traced along her neck, over the one I had previously left on it. "Where do you want it?"

"On the one you already made."

I was surprised. "You want me to do it in the same spot?" I whispered on the one on her neck. "Won't it hurt?"

"It's not painful." My head lifted from her neck at the comment, staring at her in confusion. "It feels good." Her eyes darted between both of mine. "Please."

That was all the encouragement I needed. I thrust into her harder than before as my teeth bit the same mark over again, lining them perfectly with the indents already made.

The last traces of control slipped from my grasp.

She wanted to be known as mine. She must have felt the same, the notion only making the bond I felt between us stronger.

"Kovas, oh, yes!"

Her pussy tightened around me, and I hardened more than I thought was possible. Together we rocketed past the edge of sensation, every nerve stretched past the breaking point.

After a moment of remaining still inside her and returning to reality, all the sounds of the outside world came back.

Our bubble had burst, and I remembered the dire nature of our situation. Looking down at her grin, I knew I had to protect her at all costs.

She was my mate.

But did she really want to be mine? Did she understand what that would mean?

She'd only asked me for my bite to escape from Garlku's attentions. We'd been thrown together ever since, relying on each other to escape.

Now that we were almost back to freedom, why would she want to stay with someone like me?

I couldn't let my emotions overtake me. Being hurt in battle was one thing. Getting your heart ripped from your chest metaphorically was a different pain, one I wasn't equipped to handle.

Until we were safe, there were bigger things to worry about.

Our lives were at stake. It was not the time for me to soften my walls to someone -- even Mera.
