It’s then I realize Aura really doesn’t know if being with me is safe.
I don’t either, but I also don’t give a damn anymore.
All my life, I’ve played with dangerous tools, haywire engines, and faulty parts that magically passed QA checks.
So I ignore his concern and take him deeper into my mouth, give his balls a squeeze, then glide my tongue up his shaft.
Aura shudders as I stand up to check on him. “I have never lived a safe life. I accept the risk.”
He gathers me in his arms and presses me against the shower wall. “I want you so bad, Jovie.”
I’m starting to think Aura gave me a ride first to see if he could handle it.
I summon his gaze with mine, trying to ignore the nectar dripping from my aching core. I know how big and how stimulating his shaft is now, and it’s going to be a tight fit. “If you start to hurt me, I’ll tell you.”
He nods to himself. “Okay.”
“But if you don’t give it to me soon, I might explode.”
Aura pants a heavy breath, looks deep into my eyes, reaches between us, and finds my opening with his searing tip. Then he grabs me, closes his eyes for a moment with a head shake, like he’s straining for control, and guides himself inside.
I gasp under the strain of accepting him. The tingle of his cock makes my core tighten and our bonding much more difficult than I expected. Steadying myself on his burly shoulders, I strain to breathe. But it is a torturous and erotic struggle.
The deeper he pushes, the more of his electricity I feel and the tighter I get. My pussy slicks with extra wetness as my high climbs fast.
Aura kisses me, nuzzles my cheek, and finally eases up. Then, he pushes a little more. I shiver under the addicting pressure of him. My harness was only designed for external shocks, not voltsticks buried inside me.
He clutches me with desperation as faint wisps of cragged green fire lick off of his skin. “Jovie, we should stop.”
“Hell no.” I brace his jaw and pull myself to his lips. “This is the best I’ve ever felt in my whole life. If this is how I die, I’m in fucking Heaven.”
Aura rests his forehead against mine in a still moment, just us breathing, water spraying over us from the shower head, and my pussy holding his amped-up manhood in a death grip.
He glides a thumb over my cheek in admiration.
Then he eases himself out, and the sensation of his rigid length soaked in my wetness, slick and hard and shocking , is so stimulating that I can’t stop the shuddering moan that escapes.
He chuckles with satisfaction and inserts himself again. The second bonding is a little easier, but it still makes me tremble. My hips stretch with each penetration. And soon, I can’t quite feel my legs.
“Jovie?” Aura pushes inside, then holds himself there and peels one of my hands from his shoulders. “Are you—”
I look down at my fingers as he turns my hand over. Faint strings of electricity zing from my fingertips toward him.
Aura buries his nose against my neck and holds me tightly. “My Storm was right. I can’t believe it. All these years. All my searching—”
The thought must turn him on because pressure builds between my hips with delicious, powerful heat. “Oh, Aura?”
He pants as he withdraws and penetrates me again, launching my thoughts into glittering clouds and filling every inch of my body with scintillating euphoria.
Aura thrusts harder, crushing me against the wall.
Scorching waves of heat pump into my core.
I buck onto him, straining for more, craving everything he can give me.
My body is afire from his touch, and I am high in clouds of shocking bliss.
He fills me again as he wraps his arms around me like I’m going to slip away. When he lifts his eyes to mine, they’re vibrant green with light dancing like blazing flames in his irises. And now Aura has an aura of his own. It surrounds his body like a blanket of soft light.
He cautiously sets my feet on the floor, looks over himself, and then checks on me. “Did I hurt you?”
I arch a brow. “Other than the fact that I’m going to have to learn to walk again, no.”
Aura laughs. It’s a shy laugh that shows me a side of him I don’t think many get to see. Then he kisses me with such tenderness that I know he sincerely cares.
He braces my cheeks with his hands. “Thank you for not running from me.”
“I don’t run from a thruster shooting sparks. And you’re a lot sexier than that hunk of metal.”
Aura bashfully washes up with me and then holds me in the hot water until my legs stop shaking.
When he steps out, he flash dries himself, and hands me a clean towel from the rack by the sink. While I dry off, he uses my room’s AI to request another race suit. Then he turns back, collects me in his arms, and carries me to the bed.
“Are you going to stay?”
Aura slides under the blankets with me. His flesh is warm and firm against mine as he curls himself around me. “I don’t ever want to be without you again.”
“Do you really think we can be together? I mean, if your people are mad about you not marrying who they want, and then it’s doubly worse because I’m not Amphiran, don’t you think that’s going to upset someone?”
Aura winds a finger around a strand of my damp hair. “Let them be upset. They dare not try to take me away from you. As long as you promise me to tell anyone who tries to convince you not to be with me to go fuck themselves. You are mine now. I am yours. My Storm will only connect with you.”
“What does that mean?”
“I cannot father children with anyone else unless something happens to you.”
“You mean if I die.”
He draws me in against him. “I want only you. I’m not going to let anyone hurt you again.”
The pressure against my hip makes me giggle. “Are you already getting hard?”
He rumbles a yes and nuzzles against my ear. “But I can wait. All I need right now is you against me, a reminder that you aren’t a dream any longer. You’re real. We’re real. And I will give my life to protect yours, Jovie. My Storm won’t let you go.
“I’m different,” he quietly adds. “And I don’t think I can want anyone else after you, ever again. So you have to stay alive for me too. Promise?”
I mumble a yes, but in his strong arms and this warm, soft bed, I can’t seem to stay awake. I don’t remember falling asleep, only the glorious comfort and security of my huge electric alien mate.
The room’s AI wakes us in the morning for breakfast.
Aura gets up, walks across the room naked, and peers outside the door. He closes it again and inspects the Abr race uniform. When he looks up, he catches me staring at him. Aura flings the uniform over his shoulder and jumps back onto the bed with me.
The feeling of his skin gliding over mine makes me want him. But instead, Aura dips a finger inside me, then frees it and licks it clean. “I think we need to get some fuel into you before we play much more.”
“You already know I’m okay with dying during sex.”
Aura grunts. “I’m not.”
I roll my eyes. “Fine. If we have to put clothes on, I’ll do it. But I’d much rather stay here with you.”
He pinches my chin and looks me in the eyes. “I’m going to take care of you so we can mate for decades. Doesn’t that sound better than one night?”
“Alright, alright. Twist my arm.” I get up and climb into a clean race suit from the closet.
Aura watches me with a big smile on his face. Then, he seems to remember he needs to get dressed, too. When we’re both ready, we exit the room, and the smell of omelets and French toast reminds me I am hungry.
Aura takes my hand and pulls me inside the shield of his body. I’m starting to really like being close to him, even as he gives my backside a lovezap.
“Ow!” I nudge him with an elbow in playful protest.
We pass a hallway junction on our way to the dining area when a cold feeling crawls around me. I glance as we pass, some deep-seated fear making me look on instinct.
My heart lurches into my throat, strangling my cry for Aura. I try to slow his momentum, but he’s huge compared to me. I point down the hallway. But when we return, there’s no one there.
Aura squints, and his lips part. He sniffs the air. “Chameleon cloak. You saw one of us, didn’t you?”
The high I’ve had for the last twelve hours crashes into my feet, making me dizzy.
Aura holds me close and guides me into the masses of other racers in the main hallway heading for breakfast. “That’s not good. I want you to stay with me no matter what. We may have to leave the race early.”
