Alien's Bride Book Two (8 page)

I made what sounded like a whimper.
 
Yes, definitely a whimper.
 
I was so close it was torture.
 
Magnificent torture.

Elentinus stroked my hair with his free hand.
 
“I want you to come hard for me, Maritza.
 
Let me feel the muscles inside you squeeze my fingers.”

I grimaced.
 
“Why…why are you being so dirty today?”
 
I asked this softly so he knew it wasn’t a complaint.

“My dear, this is how I am.”

I shot a glance at him.

“I was just easing you into it before.”

My brow rose.
 
My husband was a horndog?
 

He curled his finger against the taut ring of my asshole.
 
My back arched.

“Ohh!”

Before I could recover he dove his other hand between my thighs and jabbed two fingers into me.
 
He seized the whole area and started yanking his hand up.
 
In seconds I was forced to have the most powerful orgasm of my life.
 
My legs flailed so bad I had to hold onto him tight.
 
My insides became wracked with mind-blowing convulsions in two places:
 
near the front, where it echoed in twitches of my clit, and deeper in, where it would clench and hold for tremendous milliseconds of ecstasy.
 
His hand became gentle, with fingers rubbing firm circles over my labia.
 
My thighs trembled, my stomach muscles strained, and the involuntary spasms of ecstasy kept going.
 
I was bucking up from his lap with my teeth clenched.
 
The last spasms made me hiss like I’d touched a hot stove.
 
When I closed my eyes I saw specs of light dancing through the darkness.

Then, finally, my legs lost their strength and I slumped over him.
 
Elentinus stood and threw me face-down over the edge of the table.
 
I heard him tear off his cock-sheathe thing.
 
The next second I felt him pushing into me from behind.
 
I was so wet it took only one hard thrust for his enormous cock to pop in.

“Ngh!”

He was rough this time, but I could take it.
 
One of his visceral grunts roared out with every hard thrust.
 
He came fast with an extra-loud growl.
 

My legs felt as loose as water, but his huge cock had lit me up inside.
 
I knew I could have come again if he’d wanted to keep going.

Elentinus exhaled a groan and leaned over my back to kiss my nape.
 

“I needed that,” he said.

Something in his voice got me to see past the haze of pleasure I was in.
 
“What happened today?”

He sighed again.
 
“Everything’s bad… it’s all my fault.”

I struggled to roll over.
 
His cock was still inside me and didn’t want to budge.
 
With effort, I managed to turn on my back and face him.
 
I kissed his dewy lips softly.

“Tell me.”

He ran his fingers through my hair.
 
“The council…we’re discussing war.”

I gave him a look of concern.

“It’s against the Aquars.
 
Conniving little worm people, out to destroy us.
 
We think…well, we
know
, they’ve been the ones stealing our human brides.”

I swallowed.

He made a forlorn smile.
 
“Rescuing might be a better word.
 
You’re aware of the situation.”

I nodded.

“They’re such sniveling cowards, Maritza.
 
We gave them the Instajant vaccine and asked for nothing in return.
 
By rights they should be our slave world, just like Earth.
 
Not only are they ungrateful, they sneak behind our backs to thwart our repopulation efforts.
 
We think they even attacked a gestation facility.”

My future babies!
 
“They destroyed it?”

“No.
 
We’re too well fortified.
 
They have more success where we’re weaker.
 
We have a mere thousand human brides.
 
They’re picking apart their ranks by the dozens.
 
I know they’re the ones who helped Sasha run away.
 
She’s the source of all my trouble, Maritza.”
 

I became puzzled.
 
“You’re old wife?”

“Ex-wife.
 
I tore our marriage record in half to dissolve our union.
 
This is the first council session since she’s been gone.
 
Last time I voted against war with the Aquar Empire.
 
They’re the founders of the Alliance.
 
They’ll claim they’ve done nothing to deserve our attacks and get their allies to support them.
 
We’re in no shape for such a massive conflict.
 
But then something happened which called for a special session of the ruling council.
 
Our spies have evidence that Sasha is living on Rendam, an Aquar world.
 
She used the Universal Network to seek a way off Rendam, through work or a new mate.”

“Wow.”

He caressed the side of my face.
 
“I’m not surprised she’s unhappy.
 
Nothing could make her happy.”

I frowned.

“The Aquars tried to erase her postings, but it’s impossible to wipe all traces.
 
We finally have proof they’ve wronged us.
 
Half the council thinks it’s sufficient to discourage their allies from getting involved.
 
I still say that a war right now, when we’re still so vulnerable, is foolhardy.
 
I’m the most junior member of the council, however.
 
It’s far too early in my career to stand against the old guard.
 
Sasha is my ex-wife, and I’m the deciding vote.”

I shook my head.
 
“There’s too few Dak-Hiliah left for you to go to war.”

“They argue that there will be even fewer if we don’t stop them from taking our women.”

“Isn’t it better to focus on protecting the women rather than going to war?”

He made a patient smile.
 
“Of course.
 
Except they’re so sneaky we don’t know how they’re managing to steal them.
 
Consider Sasha for instance.
 
She lived here, just as you do.
 
We were in orbit when she disappeared.
 
How was that even possible?”
 
He traced his finger down my throat.
 
“I put a force field leash on you.
 
You don’t feel it or see it, but it’s there.
 
It’s based on an ancient technology given to us by the druids centuries ago.
 
Sasha’s escape from my vessel was so shocking that collars were ordered for all the remaining human brides.
 
Is it enough to protect you?
 
I don’t know.
 
I can’t know until I’ve learned how Sasha escaped.”
 
He looked into my eyes gravely.
 
“I’d rather destroy the Aquars than risk losing you.”

I wrapped my arms around him.
 
“I won’t go with them.
 
If they kidnap me I’ll find a way to come back.”
 
It was easy to say this with conviction.
 
The hard part was not telling him what I knew.
 
My throat felt tight.
 
Could I help prevent a war?
 
Or would the fact his enemies were already targeting me enrage him?
 
I needed to think it over.
 
Once I spilled my secret I could never take it back.
 

“There are other issues.
 
The Aquars may claim we tortured our women in order to gain their allies’ sympathy if we go to war.
 
But then, of course, we conquered an Alliance world before without ally intervention.
 
They may still be hesitant to stand against the Dak-Hiliah.”

I nodded and soothed his hair.
 
“It sounds like you’re stuck in a thorn bush.”
 
(My grandma used to say this).
 
“Just…just remember, war is a last resort.
 
I don’t think you’re there yet.”

“War isn’t considered a last resort for my people, Maritza.
 
It’s our prerogative.
 
The only time we shouldn’t go to war is when we can’t possibly win.”

I nodded again and sealed my lips closed.
 
I was looking at the Dak-Hiliah through human glasses.
 
Until I got a pair of Dak-Hiliah glasses, that let me understand their past and their present, I couldn’t make calls about what they should do in their future.

“You’ll make the right decision,” I said.
 
“I know you’re a good leader.”

Elentinus eyes glimmered at me and he smiled softly.
 
He closed his body over mine to lavish my mouth with kisses.
 
His outfit was rough cloth and had hard metal parts that crushed against my soft skin.
 
I felt fragile underneath him.
         

His kisses started getting deeper then I felt his prehensile cock position itself against my hole.
 
Elentinus separated from my mouth.
 

“I’m not done fucking you.”

I grunted as he pushed in.
 
“Yeah…I figured.”

He leaned up to palm my breasts while thrusting.
 
He pinched both my nipples between his thumbs and forefingers.

“You’re pregnant.
 
See how plump your nipples have gotten?”

I was vaguely aware that he spoke the truth.
 
Most of my attention was captured by his huge cock filling every precious iota of me, and his mercilessly tweaking fingers.
 

“Let’s…keep it,” I said.
 
I don’t know where that came from.
 
I was too distracted to compose my thoughts.
 
Once I realized what I said I cringed.

Elentinus lowered his face to my breasts and spread soft kisses over them.

“Yes,” he said.
 
“Let’s do that.”

***

Elentinus had to carry my naked sex-ravaged body back to our chamber.
 
I dozed in his arms with no fear of Whore catching a glimpse of me.
 
He’d become as sexless to me as the Domestics.
 
Maybe a little part of me even wanted to be seen by him.
 
He deserved to grieve for his lost Dak-Hiliah penis.
 
His master sure had a fine one.

I slept so well I wasn’t even awakened when Elentinus got up.
 
When I did finally wake up I felt bad that I hadn’t reassured him one more time.
 
I wondered how he would cast his vote.
 

Whore entered the chamber after I’d already bathed and dressed.
 
He only descended to the first landing.
 

“You need to come with me to the infirmary.”

I climbed up the stairs.
 
“Is this for the breeding cycle stuff?
 
Lord Elentinus and I have decided to keep this first one.”

“I
know
.”
 
His words dripped with revulsion.
 
“It still needs to be artificially gestated so you can restart your cycle.”
 
He led me into the corridor.
 
“You need to begin a drug regimen to speed up your ovulation today as well.”
