“I claimed you,” I argue.
“But…”
Turning, I face her, my face screwed up in anger. “Who else would care for him if not us? Breccan? Lyric? He trusts us. No one else.” I scrub a palm over my face. “What if he is frightened with them? He laughs when he’s with me.”
Her features soften. “I’m sorry. You’re right. If you want to adopt the little one into our family, I support that decision. As long as he wants to be with us.”
“He does,” I assure her. “Now where is my mortling?”
She smirks, but goes along with my possessive need to protect and care for the mortling. “He’s napping in his room inside. We probably have a few minutes to ourselves. I’m not sure when we’ll get another one alone.”
It takes my cock only seconds to realize her insinuation.
My mate wants me.
Now.
Her giggles undo me when I start yanking at her minnasuit. I manage to drag it off her supple body before I take my next breath. Then, I shed mine as though it’s diseased. When she’s naked and waiting, I grab onto her fleshy rump and lift her. Her legs wrap around me as my lips crash to hers.
“Avrell,” she moans, her fingers tugging at my hair that’s growing out each solar. “Fuck me.”
This woman maddens me.
Gripping my cock with one hand, I line myself up with her slick cunt and push into her with a hard thrust of my hips. She cries out, her entire body trembling at the intrusion. As I drive into her like a man crazed, I suck on her jaw and neck. I force a finger into her mouth and my cock swells when she sucks on it. It gives me ideas for her mouth and my cock that we’ll absolutely have to try later. When my finger is good and wet, I bring it to her rump. Retracting my claw, I rub at the cute button between her cheeks.
“I want to explore this hole,” I rumble against her throat. “Relax and let me in, stormy one.”
She whimpers but obeys me. Slowly, I ease my finger into her hole. I decide my cock will fit here one solar. I’ll make it fit. As I thrust into her, I finger this other hole, pleased at the way it stretches and clenches.
“You’re such a freak,” she murmurs.
“A freak who wants to put his cock there soon.”
She moans. “Oh, God!”
“It’s mate to you. Say it.”
“You’re my mate!”
I push my finger in deep as I grind into her, gyrating my hips in a way that my pelvis rubs against her clit. She whimpers and shudders, seconds away from her explosive peak. With an alarmed cry, she succumbs to the pleasure, both holes spasming around me.
“Rekk,” I rasp out as my seed gushes forth, filling her waiting womb.
As her body falls limp from the toxica, I drop into a chair in the supplies room, hugging her to me. She doesn’t stay immobilized for long as her body grows used to my paralyzing agent. Her finger strokes my neck softly as I pat her rump and kiss her nog.
“You’re mine, stormy one. You always will be.”
“You’re mine too.” Her whispered words are nearly inaudible, but I hear. I always hear.
All too soon, she regains her movement and we’re able to clean up and redress.
“We should leave soon,” I tell her, hating that we’re going to leave our safe haven and enter the unknown.
Before, it wouldn’t have bothered me, but I have a family to think about now.
“Let’s gather our people then.”
She starts to walk away, but I pull her to me for a deep kiss.
“No matter what happens out there, stormy one, know that becoming your mate was the best thing that ever happened to me.” I lean my forehead against hers. “My greatest achievement.”
“Don’t sell yourself short, Avrell. We have our whole lives ahead of us. I’m sure you’ll have many more achievements that will outshine becoming my mate.”
“Hmmm.”
She smacks me, earning a scowl.
“What the rekk did I do to earn that?” I growl.
“I’ve decided every time you hmmm me, you get smacked.” She shrugs. “Now get to work, monster man, we have people to save.”
As she walks away, I smack her rump.
“What was that for?” she snaps, her gray eyes flashing.
“If you get to smack me, I get to smack your rump anytime you sass me with those plump lips of yours.”
“You’re trouble, Doc.”
“The best kind, my mate.”

“Take it easy,” I instruct the healing members of our group as they load up on the ship. Thank goodness it has enough room to fit all of us. “Everyone find a seat and make sure to keep hydrated. It’s going to be a long trip, but we’re going to take good care of you.”
I stand at the entrance to the ship, helping everyone on, but really, I’m scanning all the familiar faces for one in particular. One I haven’t seen since I stole her away to help me on my top secret task. “C’mon, Julie,” I murmur under my breath. “Please don’t make me leave you.”
