Even then, he watched her as he pressed his slick hand to the glimmering cum on her stomach, smearing their pleasure together and gliding his hand up to frame her breast. “So pretty,” he murmured, running his thumb over her nipple. “But next time you’ll scream for me. We both know you can be louder.”
But she hadn’t thought they would have two massive cocks that made her want to do a lot more than just rub up against them. But rubbing against them had been good, too. She would do that again.
Her cheeks flamed bright red. “Stop that.” “Stop what?” This time his opposite hand moved up her side, gently brushing against her breast before retreating. “Do you not want me to touch you, kefi?”
“I am looking at you. All that wondrous, full flesh. Seeing you like this makes me want to bite you.” Baring those sharp teeth, he added, “Only if you wished, I suppose. But I would like it known that I very much would like to.”
“I need space from you to talk.” “Is it that bad?” “No, you’re too distracting. I can’t think with all...” He waved his hand up and down, dunking it into the water so he could gesture to her entire form. “All of that. It’s too much. My mind can only do so much.”
“Talk.” “I don’t want to talk right now.” “I do.” “What do I get if I tell you?” Oh, this devious man. He looked at her with all that hunger,
You like what I did with my hands? It’s ten times better with my mouth.” He dunked completely underwater, like he’d forgotten how to swim. One moment he was there, staring at her with an open mouth, and the next, underwater. He came up spluttering, wiping his face clear of water before opening his eyes and gaping at her again. “What?” he said.
“We need to go to the most dangerous building in Gamma.” Well, his little kefi had never been very good at preparing him for the insane things she was about to say. He swallowed hard, trying to roll the words over in his mind. “What?” he blurted out,
“You’re ruining all the best parts,” he muttered. “That’s how you eat them?” “I’m shocked you’re swallowing bone.”
“Why?” “You know why.”
He saw stars. Back arching, hands grabbing at nothing, stars that only got even more powerful as she drew him into her
exploded on his tongue. Warm and earthy and so much her that he realized this was a terrible idea. He wouldn’t last like this. Not now that she was whimpering around his cock, tiny shudders moving throughout her entire form every time he withdrew his tongue, only to sink it even deeper inside of her.
“Kefi, there are no words.” “Is that a good thing?” He tugged her against his hearts, holding her tightly against him as they both sank toward sleep. “Yes, kefi. For a male who won’t shut up like myself, I think that’s a very good thing.”
“You, kefi. All my dreams are of you.”
the black blood that spread around them. “I am going to kill you all,” he said. “I will watch you die. Hold you close as the life flees from your body so that I can consume your souls. One by one. I will devour them and bring them into the abyss where you will be plagued by the souls of the drowned for an eternity.”
If he died, then he died. It was an honorable death for one such as him and he would not mourn dying for the woman he... he...
“Because we’re afraid if anyone sees who we really are, that they won’t like us. And what greater wound is there than to show someone who you really are and have them like you even less than the person you made up?”
“Kefi is a spirit of joy,” he murmured. “It is the feeling in your chest when you experience a passion for life and new things. The sensation of excitement, but even more than that. It is the true joy of adventure.”
he was finding that he was right. She was his joy.
It’s okay if they don’t like me.” “It’s not.” “Why?” He paused near the building, his gaze dancing over her features. “Because you are the most wonderful person I have ever met. The idea of them disappointing you, or seeing less of you than you deserve? It kills me.”
Well, fuck. She didn’t know if it was the right thing to do in front of what was essentially his family. But he reacted like she’d stuck him with a brand. Maketes became a live wire in her arms, all of his gills fluttering like mad and his arms dragging her even closer. It was so nice to have someone be this obsessed with her.
“Come on. If you can fix Bitsy, that would be the second best thing to happen today!” Pulling her friend to a stop, she made sure Anya could see her lips as she said, “What’s the first?” “You, silly.”
His people needed him to provide information, and he needed... her. Every inch of her.
Daios snorted. “Just for that, I hope you find the most difficult one out of us all.”
Just like that, all the need was back. It burrowed into him like a knife and he groaned at the thought of her. “Soft. Everything about her is so soft.”
“No, no...” He lifted his hands as though envisioning her ass already cupped in his palms. “There’s so much to grab. So much to spread out like a banquet before me.” Daios made a disgusted expression and then slapped at Maketes’s hands. “Stop that.” “What? There’s plenty of her to please me.”
The People of Water are very welcoming, and you are unmated. There will be many males vying for your attention.” All his gills snapped back against his face and he glared at some imagined male behind her. “You are not to entice them with your curves or your smiles.”
“What? I am allowed to request that you not look at other males. You’re too pretty and they are too stupid for you.”
“That’s good, because I know I’m madly in love with you. I have been since that first moment I saw you jump into the water with me. From the moment I saw you face your fears and challenge the world head on. I was in love with you before we even said a single word to each other, and now having you beside me is my reason for breath. I didn’t know I could need someone the way I need you, but now my need is endless.”
“Stop talking,” she whispered. “I don’t want to stop talking. I want to tell you a thousand more ways of how I love you. I only said it once so far, Ace. There are many more ways I could tell you. For example—” She kissed him, and all the thoughts fled out of his head.
“Maketes?” she whispered. “Yes, kefi?” “I don’t want to stop this time. I want to know what it feels like to have you inside me. I know that maybe that’s rushing things, but...” Those cheeks burned even darker. “I want this to be forever, you know? Why not now?” He blinked a few times, the words sinking in before he blurted out, “But I haven’t brought you a gift yet.”
“What is on that beautiful mind of yours? Quickly, because I need to go find you a treasure that will convince you to stay with me forever.” “I have a treasure in mind,” she said, those talented fingers dancing down his chest. “And it’s one that you don’t have to leave to give me.”
“Give me your cocks as a gift, undine. I want to feel them both inside of me.” By the sea, she always made him see stars.
His webbed hands grabbed at the rocks, holding on for dear life as she showed him a pleasure she was damn well certain no undine had ever shown him.
“Suck, kefi, I’m done behaving.”
“I’ve never...” He swallowed hard, his throat bobbing. “I’ve never done this before.”
“You take me so well,” he said, his voice tinged with wonderment. “You’ve never been more beautiful.”
It was the most sublime and beautiful moment she’d ever endured. Feeling him seeking out his pleasure, feeling the kick of his hips as he ground himself just a tiny bit deeper, as deep as he could go.
I love you. Let me do this for you.
It was a photograph of her standing in front of the circular window of her clock tower in Gamma, her back to Tera as she was silhouetted by the neon lights in the sea. And then there were the words that broke her heart in two. Human compassion is the greatest power you can wield. Use it.
As they placed each stone, they spoke aloud a memory of the droid who had given its life to ensure that they all lived. Tera had succeeded.
“You look so pretty in the sunlight,” she murmured, tracing her fingers over the peaks of his cheekbones. “Your scales are always yellow, but in the sunlight they’re almost blinding.”
