Chapter 7

Ihave difficulty sleeping because all I want is to mate with Willow.

After the first time, where I drank her blood, we slept.

I woke up, hard and leaking, needing to lick her again to completion and taste her juices. I took her with me into the cleansing unit and licked her to orgasm and then took her again, fucking her hard against the tile wall, her perfect breasts bouncing and water spraying down. It was wonderful.

I carried her back to bed and we fell asleep.

I woke again later, in the dark, with her mouth on my hard cock. She was sucking me to completion. My bride loves my cock. I shouted as I came in her mouth and she swallowed everything I had to give her.

"You're good at that," I told her.

"You're good at that too," she said as I moved between her thighs. Then I licked her to a screaming orgasm.

Afterwards, we fell asleep again.

I wake up the next morning with sunlight filtering through the curtains. The sound of rain has stopped and I can see blue sky through the windows.

The blood frenzy is finally decreased enough that my mind can fully process my actions from last night. And I instantly understand that I've behaved with dishonor.

The bedside light is illuminated, letting me know the power has been restored.

My jaw clenches and there is a heaviness in the pit of my stomach.

There's a gorgeous, naked, human female in my bed. I've used her over and over again all night and early this morning. It took that long for my frenzy to decrease to this point, where I can awaken and think clearly.

I mated with her and marked her, and yet I still have no dispensation from my King. This was illegal.

While she sleeps I reach for my glass tablet. I message Justice Bloodworth and let him know what I've done. And then I message Steve Banks, checking he's on his way to pick her up.

I place a hand on her shoulder and try to awaken her. "Willow…Willow, you must leave."

"What?" she mumbles.

"You need to leave now. It's best that they do not know that you were involved."

Her green eyes blink open and she pushes her tangled golden hair from her face.

I gaze down at her beautiful features, love for her filling my heart and mind.

She carries my offspring. A child I will not be allowed to raise. I will have to go back to Korn and enter quarantine in a prison for the rest of my life. This I will do for her and my child. They can live free from my dishonor.

"I accidentally ingested almost a whole bottle of human alcohol in the midst of a frenzy. This caused me to give in and mate with you and give you my mark, even though I knew it was wrong. But the law and military of my home world will not care about these extenuating circumstances. Neither will the King. Bad Blood is a life-long designation."

"I don't want to leave. Let me work this out with you."

"You don't understand the extent to which this will be bad for you and our offspring. I am separating from the both of you right now so that you can have a good life, without me. If you remain at my side there is a chance they will also take you and our offspring into custody, deeming our entire union illegal and the need for the courts on Korn to decide your fate."

"Really?"

"Yes. You must get out right now. I have messaged Justice and he will be here soon, I'm sure to take me into custody. He is a male of honor and has his own human bride and half human offspring. I'm certain he will take you under his care and send me off with our military, not letting them take you with them. But he will need to document my arrest to send back to headquarters. You can't be here when this happens. For you to remain safe, you must leave right now."

She is naked in our bed and tears well in her gorgeous, green eyes. All I want is to suck on her breasts again and take her in my arms, but I can't have her.

"Bruce, I want to stay with you and fight for us, at your side."

"You can't."

"I think I can. I'm the one who gave you my consent last night. You're not the only one who went into this, knowing it would be difficult. They way they are treating you is wrong and I want to help you right that wrong."

I stand on the side of the bed, not hiding my scars, not hiding the lump on my knee. Only in front of this one female can I stand proud because she loves all of me, the way I am. But I must discard her, for her own good. "Everyone on Korn thinks I am not worthy," I say, "that I was not able to follow my duty and protect our King. But they are wrong. I will do whatever it takes to protect you and our offspring you carry."

"Bruce, I?—"

"Get out of bed and get dressed right now. I don't want you in here with me. You must leave."

Her eyes widen and she stands up on the opposite side of the bed.

"Get dressed." I hate speaking like this to her, but I must have her gone before Justice arrives. And that male is very prompt. Calling Justice as soon as I realized my error and having that time and date stamp, will help our case. "I am being arrested by Justice and will eventually leave the planet and be taken to Korn. You will stay here and raise our offspring without me, but in peace and safety. This is the only way."

Tears stream down her cheeks as she puts on her underwear from last night and then slips on the dress that was crumpled on the floor. Then she stands, lifts her chin and meets my gaze. "I love you. I won't stop fighting for you. For us."

"I know this is how you feel. Now get out. Right now."

She strides out of the room and I slam the bedroom door closed behind her.
