He did not deserve her.

His sweet Sah-ah.

He should not touch her.

But she was the one easing closer to him. Rubbing her body on him. Causing his mating instincts to roar with need. She was the one begging to be plundered. How could he resist the call?

Sah-ah clasped her hands on his shoulders and wormed upward so they were eye to eye. He was so much bigger than her that, even lying down, she couldn’t quite reach his head. Korben scooted down to help her achieve the height she was searching for. A small, pleased smile flitted over her lips and he immediately wanted to part them with his tongue.

With his fingers.

With his—

“Korben,” she whispered.

He growled.

Denizi.

She was calling to him in a soft, feminine voice. He did not understand all the words, but he needed no help to read the lust in her eyes when, suddenly, Sah-ah pressed her mouth to his.

Korben froze in shock, taken aback by her boldness. Her soft lips brushed against his and he wondered where this courage was coming from. Throughout their journey, he'd sensed that Sah-ah was holding back from him. There were moments where she would regard him with a frightened little look despite the desire seeping into her expression.

Tonight, she seemed determined. More so than ever. His shock wore off quickly. With a low growl, Korben wrapped his arms around her and sucked her face. He wasted no time sliding his tongue inside her mouth and making a slow, sensual dance against hers.

She moaned, beginning to tremble as if he had invaded her soft places already. Her fingers tightened around him and the scent of her essence filled the air. Korben’s chest exploded with passion. He had never touched lips with a female before Sah-ah and he would never do so with another female after her.

She had the sweetest taste.

None would be able to match it.

Sah-ah spread her legs apart, moving her hips over his. Korben’s hardness responded, pressing toward her thighs. Still, he held back.

I don’t deserve this.

He gritted his teeth as he struggled to keep himself from exploding.

I do not…

Sah-ah threw one thigh over his and her core collided with his hardness. The feeling sent a shockwave of pleasure through his system and a gasp tore from his lips, echoing in the still night.

Sah-ah smirked and began rubbing herself on him. It was meant to seduce him, but Korben heard her moaning low in her throat and felt her shaking as if on the edge. Her rattled breaths hit his flesh to an urgent beat that made his head spin. Her eyes flashed in the darkness. She slowed her hips and moved with deliberate intimacy.

Her fingers pointed at his pants.Take all of me this time.

Korben chuckled, both amused and excited by her aggressiveness. She was a very bold human, that he could say for sure. His quiet laughter turned to a groan as Sah-ah swung up and straddled his waist. Her heat pulsed an inch away from where he needed her to be.

A growl escaped his lips. “Human, you are playing a very dangerous game.”

An eyebrow arched as her face shifted to an image of wicked, feminine seduction. She eased back to rub herself on him again. Her sensual dance drove him mad. It mattered not that he still wore his pants. Sah-ah was about to make him explode.

Korben sucked in a sharp breath.

His body was ready for her.

So ready.

Denizi.
