Micah's Mate (Dark Sky) (11 page)

             
“My brother will get to me eventually, especially if you are over here.” He looked her over from head to foot assessing. “So you are the woman he picked up to breed with? I wonder why he chose someone so little? You would think that he would have chosen someone a little sturdier.” He smiled at her annoyed look.

             
Katlyn raised an eyebrow at his comment and moved closer to him whispering in his ear, “Actually, he ‘picked me up’ as you put if for wild screaming sweaty sex. The breeding part is just a bonus.”

             
Stochi met her gaze in shock, the women here did not speak of sex that way; matter of fact they didn’t talk about it at all. He burst out in laughter, “You are an outspoken one aren’t you?”

             
Katlyn smiled, “Did you really think I would be a mild mannered fool? Your brother would get bored with that. You must be Stochi. Your brother has told me a lot about you.”

             
Stochi picked her up and hugged her, “Don’t believe everything you hear little one. Welcome to the family, I believe I am going to enjoy having you around.”

             
Katlyn hugged him back. She had been right; she was going to like him. Once he set her down Katlyn looked up and found Micah watching her.

             
“He does not like you being away from his side.” Stochi whispered in her ear. “He also is wondering what awful things I am saying to you.”

             
Katlyn threaded her arm through his, “Good, so why don’t you really piss him off and tell me all of his dirty secrets. Start at puberty.”

             
Stochi laughed and allowed her to lead him over to the group, this woman was going to lead his brother on a merry chase; “I can see why he picked you.”

             
“Stochi.” Micah hugged the young man close and smiled at her over his shoulder. “I see you have met my Niflet.”

             
“Katlyn, let me introduce you to the rest of the family. Mom, Dad; this is Katlyn.” Micah stood back as his parents greeted her warmly. “Stochi, whatever did she say to make you laugh?”  He had always been a strange one. He didn’t talk much, staid to himself most of the time and Micah didn’t think he had heard him laughed out loud since he had been a child. Katlyn must have said something to really shock him.

             
“Micah, you know I do not run tails, you will have to ask her. I believe I am going to like her though.” Stochi looked over at Katlyn and smiled, she was beauty, strength and fire all rolled into one package. The others were going to have a time getting used to her.

             
“Funny, she said the same about you.” Micah hugged his brother once more and moved back to Katlyn’s side as she was talking to his sister.

             
His sister was talking animatedly to Katlyn. “I guess it is possible, but we won’t know without being able to experiment a little. It would be a huge blessing though.”

             
“Maria, are you talking her ear off?” Micah interrupted pulled Katlyn to his side leaning to kiss her softly.

             
“No Micah, it was me. I had some questions for her about the sterility; she was answering my questions.” Katlyn shook her head briefly at Maria letting her know not to share the information. If it worked everyone would be ecstatic, but if it didn’t it would be a huge disappointment to everyone. Katlyn sighed softly when Maria smiled at her. She would keep the information to herself.

             
Katlyn had been speaking to Maria about egg donation. It was something that had come to her as Micah had spoken about his sister-in-law Sophia. Fingers crossed; maybe she would be willing to try it. If she chose to be a recipient of donor eggs then it might help her with carrying a child. Maria had offered to speak with her about it later in the evening. She wished she knew more about the sterility here and how it had focused on the women. There were so many things that could have gone wrong that egg donation would not help but on the other hand it was a chance.

             
“Mom, Dad, everyone; I am going to take Katlyn and show her our home now. We will see you over dinner.” Micah took her hand and led her away from his family, sometimes they were a little overbearing and he didn’t want her overwhelmed her first day with them.

             
“Micah, your family is wonderful.”

“They are but sometimes they do not know when to give a person some space.
Katlyn smiled up at him and let him lead her to the huge white building structure with more windows than walls. “This is beautiful. Which part are we in?”

             
Micah pointed to the upper level, “We are living there. It has a beautiful view and is high enough that we can enjoy the privacy.” Entering the building Katlyn gasped, it was almost completely open with what looked to be like wide sofas and chairs strewn here and there covered in pillows. There were hanging vines and potted plants throughout and the walls sparkled. Much like Earths customs there were pictures on the walls but these looked to be drawn on the walls not hung there. It was beautiful, it was welcoming, and it resonated comfort. Katlyn followed Micah up the stairs to what would be their private chambers.

             
Entering the room Katlyn gasped. The walls and ceiling were made of a glass like substance giving the illusion of being completely open. There was a huge bed in the middle of the room with what looked like a stream running through the floor off to the right. There was also a screen hanging down in front of the bed that reminded Katlyn of a TV but bigger.

             
“So this is home?” Katlyn stopped in the center of the room and smiled.

             
“This is home, Niflet.” Micah said softly wrapping his arms around her waist pulling her close to him. “What do you think?”

             
Turning toward him Katlyn put her hands on his chest. “I think it is beautiful. What a wonderful place you have brought me to.”

             
Micah leaned down and kissed her softly. “Let us change then I will give you the tour.”

             
“Change? Micah, my clothing is still on the ship.” Katlyn suddenly realized that in the rush she had forgotten her bag. How could she have been so absentminded?

             
“My sister has brought some for you that you may find more comfortable. Roslyn wanted to make you feel at home.” Micah pushed on the wall and a door opened into a closet.

             
Katlyn peeked inside and gasped at all of the colors and fabrics that were lined up. “She went a little overboard.” Katlyn smiled, “But I love it.” She pulled out a loose fitting summer dress and sandals. “Please do not let me forget to thank her.”

             
Micah chuckled to himself as he also picked some clothing to change into. It looked like women where the same everywhere, new clothing and shoes and they were happy.

Chapter 6

             
“Katlyn, tell us how you first met Micah.” Micah’s mother asked softly. “You can tell a lot about a person by how they met.”

             
Katlyn swallowed what was in her mouth and smiled. “Your son broke into my house, hid in my kitchen, physically restrained me and did that little mood warp thing on me.” Katlyn smiled innocently at Micah as he scowled at her. “Oh, was I not supposed to tell her that?”

             
“Micah! You didn’t!” His mother looked embarrassed until she caught the shared teasing look between Katlyn and Micah. “I promise you I raised him better than that.”

             
Micah cleared his throat, “Mother, I
wandered
into her home while she was talking to an officer at the door and I didn’t want to be caught there. When she came into the kitchen I had no choice but to keep her from raising an alarm so I needed to restrain her.”

             
“My dear, you must have been terrified.” Micah’s father scowled at him, “Was there no other way to speak with her? Anyone can see that she was not a threat to you.”

             
Winking at Stochi when she heard him chuckle Katlyn held back a smile and agreed with Micah’s father, “That is exactly what I said to him.”

             
Micah brought her hand to his lips, “And that is when I won you over with my charm.”

             
Katlyn laughed out loud and tried not to spit out her food. “I believe that that is when you told me you refused to leave and that there were people chasing you.”

             
Micah laughed, “They don’t need all of the boring details sweetheart.”

             
His family laughed with him, “Of course we do Micah. We have been waiting many years to hear this!”

             
“Forgive me?” Katlyn leaned over and kissed him softly. At his nod she turned back to his family and recanted the story for them. When she got to the desperate run through the forest they were on the edge of their seats waiting to hear the ending.

             
“Thank the gods that you got away.” Micah’s father lifted his glass of wine, “We are very happy that you chose to join Micah here. It was time for him to settle down long ago.”

             
Katlyn smiled over at Micah, “And I am very glad that he chose me to come with him.”

             
“Niflet, as I said before; the Gods will find a way.” Micah leaned over and kissed her softly.

             
Katlyn pulled back blushing, took a drink of her wine and smiled at the people sitting around the table. “Thank you so much, all of you, for making me feel so accepted. You do not know what it means to me to be so welcomed into your home and family.”

             
“Now if you will all excuse us. Mother, Father; Katlyn and I are headed to bed to rest. We will see you in the morning.” Micah took Katlyn’s hand and helped her rise up out of the chair. He could not wait any longer to get her alone and in his bed.

             
“Katlyn, sleep well. We will talk more tomorrow.” Maria spoke softly causing Katlyn to pause, “I look forward to it. Good night everyone.”

             
Micah and Katlyn headed up the stairs to their chambers with Katlyn feeling just a little light headed.

             
“Micah, what was in that wine? It has one heck of a kick.” She was feeling increasingly warm and tingly all over.

             
“Nefus root. You have not felt the full effects yet. It will hit you in about ten more minutes.” Micah chuckled and spun her around in a circle, “You will have to build up a tolerance to it.”

             
Katlyn giggled and moved into their rooms. “I like your family Micah. Not once did they make me feel out of place. They are wonderful people.”

             
“They are. What did you say to Stochi today? This is the first time he has had dinner here with us in some time.” Micah pulled off his shirt as he shut the door behind them. He wanted to slip into the stream to bathe then climb into bed with her.

             
Katlyn paused and giggled, “Nothing important, although I believe that I shocked him.” Katlyn pulled the dress over her head and let it fall to the floor at her feet. “You told me that the women were more submissive to the men here than on Earth; did you mean in all areas?” Katlyn kicked off her shoes and moved to the stream slowly sinking in next to Micah. Running her hands down his arms in a caress she moved closer to him.

             
“Yes.” Micah began running soap over her body slowly, enjoying the feel of her skin under his fingers. “They do not open themselves to pleasure the way that you do. The women here have the ability to block the feelings that the men radiate, this allows them to not be as overwhelmed when we touch them.”

             
“Why would they not want to feel what you feel? Ummm, that’s nice.” Katlyn leaned forward as he washed her back. “The best part is the feeling of being out of control. Well, maybe not the best part but definitely one of the best parts.”

Micah slowly rinsed her back thinking, “
You have felt the loss of control as you are swept up in it. The women don’t like not being in control of themselves. They are afraid of total surrender.”

Giving him a naughty grin over her shoulder Katlyn giggled, “I am going to have to
disagree; I like what it does to me.”

Micah set down the cup he was rinsing her with
and paused, “You like not being in control.”

Katlyn leaned into his touch allowing him to wash
away the tension of the day. Washing her hair she paused thinking of something else, “Does it bother you that I am not that way?”

             
Micah stilled and turned her to face him. “That you are not what way?”

             
“Like them?” Katlyn moved out of the pool and moved naked across the floor. The breeze blowing through the room dried her pretty quickly. Wow, that wine had gone to her head.

             
Micah followed her and stopped her in front of the bed, “I find I do not care so much for in controlled and quiet.” He liked her openness and how she let herself go as he made love to her. She was sexy, sensual.

             
Katlyn pressed her palms against his chest and smiled up at him, “Good because I am not going to change. Kiss me?”

             
Micah leaned down and took her lips with his slowly deepening the kiss.

             
Katlyn felt as if she were drowning in need, she was already throbbing, wet and ready. “Micah, what was in that drink?”

             
“It is a little bit of an aphrodisiac for the women here. It allows them to lower their inhabitations around their mates. Why?” Micah looked into her eyes and knew by the need that was flowing off of her in waves. The drink had affected her a little differently, more strongly. Katlyn pulled his lips to hers again, and kissed him deeply.

             
“I need you Micah, but there is something I want first.” Katlyn smiled up at him mischievously. Oh, she was going to enjoy this.

             
“What do you wish for baby?” Micah followed her toward the wall and watched as she pulled a pillow off of the chair and dropped it on the floor at his feet. What in the world was she up to?

             
“I want you to stay right there.” Katlyn dropped to her knees on the pillow and grasped his staff lightly. “I have wanted to do this again all day.” Katlyn ran her tongue slowly up the side of his erection and smiled when he moaned. “It seems I really enjoy it. You like that?”

             
Micah leaned back against a pillar and threaded his hands through her hair. “Yes.” He glanced down at her and groaned at the way she looked. Naked on her knees her hair flowing over her shoulder as she gazed up at him with her sexy smile as she leaned forward and took him in her mouth. It was a completely submissive position but Micah knew she was the one in control.

             
“How about this?” She slowly swirled her tongue around the head and across the top catching the drop of precum that had formed there.

             
Micah closed his eyes and tried to keep his legs from shaking. “Kat.”

             
“Oh, I’m not done yet sweetheart, I have found that I like tasting you.” Kat sucked him into her mouth and moaned around him. “I have found that I like making you moan.” She took him into her mouth again and sucked hard causing him to do just that.

“And do you know what I like most of all?” Katlyn took him into her mouth again sucking hard pulling him deep into her throat. The vibrating moan that she made deep in her throat had Micah pulling her to her feet
then lifting her to him in one smooth motion. Once at eye level he thrust into her.

             
“What do you like most of all?” Micah growled as he turned her back to the pillar and thrust harder into her wet heat.

             
“I like you plunging inside of me, most of all I love you making me scream.” Katlyn moaned against his lips wrapping her legs around his hips.

             
“Oh baby. I am going to make you scream.” Micah carried her to the bed and came down on top of her. Moving is hands under her hips he held her still as he pushed slowly and deeply inside of her. “Ahh, Niflet you are mine.”

             
Katlyn pushed him back on the bed and straddled him. Taking him deeper she pressed her hands against his chest; “Micah.” Katlyn moved faster taking him as deep as she could moaning. “You feel so good.”

             
Micah rolled her back under him and thrust hard. “Ah yes.” He felt her body tighten further around him and sucked her nipple into his mouth. Thrusting again he bit her and felt her explode around him.

             
“Oh God, yes!” Katlyn screamed feeling her body clench around him. But she didn’t stop there, “Micah, Oh God, Micah.”

             
“Feel how good it feels baby.” He thrust harder into her and harder. She was still coming and coming hard. Micah felt his cock expand further as he thrust. “Come for me baby. Show me.” Katlyn rolled him to his back and took all of him deep inside of her. Stilling she felt him expand further and panted. “Micah?” She moved gently and felt him grow more. “Oh God!” she was coming again, tightly around him.

             
Micah held her hips still as he pumped inside of her filling her as he came.

             
Katlyn collapsed over him still feeling her body clenching around him.

             
“Remind me to give you more of that wine tomorrow.” Micah chuckled as Katlyn half heartedly slapped his arm.

             
“That stuff is lethal.” Katlyn frowned hearing steps on the stairs. “Micah?”

             
Micah turned handing her the sheet to cover up with. Normally no one ever came up here. Glancing over at the top of the stairs he saw Stochi.

             
“I apologize for the interruption brother. I was headed to bed and thought I heard a noise. I wanted to make sure everything was okay.”

             
Katlyn groaned and covered her red face with the sheet as Micah chuckled. She was never going to be able to look Stochi in the face again. “We are fine Stochi.”

             
“Good night then.” Stochi chuckled realizing what he had heard. Quickly he turned and moved back down the stairs.

             
“Guess I need to be quieter.” Katlyn grinned up at Micah, “Your brother is going to have a field day with that one.”

             
Micah lay down and pulled her to him, “Don’t you dare. I like it when you scream for me. Better get some sleep sweetheart; we start your training in the morning.”
              “Really? Thank you Micah.” Katlyn laid her hand over his heart and closed her eyes. She was one lucky woman.

             
Micah broadened his stance, opened his hand and pushed with his mind to force the energy ball from his hand. It flew across the yard and hit the target five hundred feet away. Katlyn frowned; he made it look so easy!

             
“Now you try.” Micah watched Katlyn take a stance and try to form the ball. He could see it forming and moving to her hand but there she lost control of it. “Concentrate, clear your mind.”

             
“I am concentrating.” Katlyn could feel it in her palm but there was a lapse at the end where she lost it. 

             
“What are you guys doing?” Stochi rounded side of the house and looked at the damaged targets in front of them. Ahhh, target practice; looked like his brother was doing a lot of things unacceptable these days. “You let her have the disc?”
