Prime Deliverance (Katieran Prime Series (Book Five)) (11 page)

He fell to his knees then crawled to her. “Open your legs, I need to taste you.”

AriELa blushed but she opened her legs wide for him, exposing her bare feminine folds. She was lucky because Katieran females did not have a lot of body hair. She knew that Cassie, Jaxon, Kat, and Lindsey had to shave themselves to be bare. She hoped TarAK liked what he saw.

TarAK didn’t hesitate. He lowered his head and took her nether lips in his mouth, kissing her in a way no male had ever done before. It was so good.

His tongue came out and swiped at her seam licking up her cream. “Umm…Mine.” He entered her with his tongue, moving in and out. The rhythm he set had her moving her lower half with him.

AriELa took hold of his hair again pulling his head into her. She had no idea a male could do those things with his tongue. It felt…there were no words. Something was building inside of her. A pressure that was unfamiliar. It got stronger and stronger. When he pushed a finger in between her pussy lips, the pressure burst through her. She screamed her release. “TarAK!”

He didn’t relent. He kept pumping her with his fingers as he rose up over her. He placed the tip of his cock at her entrance and removed his fingers. She protested the emptiness his fingers left and the sudden need she had to be filled. He pushed himself in, little by little. “So tight.” He didn’t want to hurt her. Thank goodness for all those awkward talks he had with his father. He insisted TarAK know everything about sharing sex.
Thank you, father.
He focused everything solely on where his body was joining hers.

He paused at the barrier that was proof of AriELa’s innocence. “There is no turning back. Let me know now if you do not want this.”

“I want you, only you,” AriELa replied, gripping his ass cheeks in her hands and trying to pull him into her.

He growled with pleasure of her aggressiveness. He plunged through her barrier all the way to the hilt. There he waited until AriELa’s body adjusted to him. She had made a small, painful grunt but that was it. He knew she was okay when she started moving her hips beneath him.

He kissed her gently as he started moving in and out of her. It was the most incredible feeling he had ever experienced. She was warm, wet and tight. Her inner walls squeezed him.
Oh Goddess, please let me last.
He didn’t want to release too soon. He needed her to be there with him this time. He bent to suckle her breast.

“TarAK,” she moaned as she wrapped her legs around his hips. It brought him further into her.
Oh yes, that’s what she needed
. It felt so good. She had never felt so completely filled. It was like gravity had left her and she was floating slowly up to the stars. Higher and higher she rose.

He reached down between their bodies and tweaked her hood. That was all she needed to finally reach her climax.

“Yes!” She felt herself being flung up into the stars.

“Mine!” TarAK yelled as he pulled himself out of her and released on her stomach.

It took a few moments for AriELa to finally be able to think clearly. She felt completely at ease. He moved off her and laid down beside her on the ground. Her stomach was wet from his release. It was at that moment that she realized that he had not claimed her.

She frowned and looked at him. “Why did you not release inside of me?”

TarAK turned to look into her dark blue eyes. Eyes so dear to him that he knew saw straight to his spirit.

“We are not officially mated yet. We should not do that until you call things off with KadEN.”

It made sense, but it still bothered her. Her cousins couldn’t withhold claiming their mates. She looked away.

“AriELa,” he called her name, but she didn’t turn to look at him. He shifted to his side and reached for her. “AriELa, you are mine. I will claim you. I just want to do it right.” He kissed her for a long time. They both moaned as their passions reignited. Katierans had a high sex drive.

He rolled her onto her stomach and climbed behind her. He pulled her up to her hands and knees. Spreading her legs out, he positioned his stiff arousal at her wet entrance.

“I heard Doctor Morris call this position ‘doggy style’,” AriELa commented. Then all words left her when he pushed into her. “Oh…oh.”

“Yeah,” he moaned. He nuzzled her neck as he started slowly moving in and out. This position allowed him to squeeze and hold her breasts. He enjoyed watching his member enter her from behind. She engulfed his shaft and the thrusting in and out felt amazing. Nothing felt better. When he hit a spot that made her moan louder, he kept hitting the same spot over and over.

“TarAK!”

“I know. Just a little bit more.” He began to pound her harder and faster. He liked that he could control the movement at the beginning, but now he was losing that control. He ground himself into her. He kept thinking to himself over and over,
“Mine! Mine! Mine!”

They both released at the same time. He barely pulled from her before his seed shot out hitting her ass. The sight of his seed on her body left him feeling satisfied. At least he marked her. He collapsed on top of her. They were both sweaty and breathing heavy. Neither said a word. After several minutes the silence was broken.

“Let’s go back to your suite. I want to make love to you all night,” TarAK said.

She blushed, “I want that, too.”

Chapter Twelve

“I want to go shopping.” AriELa said to TarAK and Lucy.

“You shopped plenty back on Katiera,” TarAK growled.

“I want to get things from
Kiljor
that are specific to this area.”

“It’s just shopping, TarAK,” Lucy spoke up. She had noticed the two were finding things to fight over. She thought they had spent the night together having sex. Why were they acting so strange now?

“Thank you, Lucy. I’ll go get my shoes.” AriELa hopped away to her bedroom.

TarAK turned on Lucy. “She should remain inside the Prime Building where it is safe.”

Lucy watched him with clear and perceptive eyes. “Give me a true reason for her not to go and I will back you up.”

TarAK couldn’t do that yet, not without confirmation from AshOR. The other male had approached him right after Morning Meal telling him to keep AriELa under his watchful eye for the next few hours. When TarAK asked him why, AshOR said they thought they had detected a Morin Transport heat signature near the outer Lunas. Commander TylOR was waiting for positive confirmation. TarAK was told to keep the information to himself until confirmation had been made so it did not stir up a riot among the people.

Now TarAK was caught between keeping his word to ensure the peace of the people, or his need to protect his female.
Yeah, he was done denying it.
She was his and he would protect her with his very life.
He felt guilty for having taken her innocence. His father raised him to be honorable. He did his best to not release within her. He hoped to be honorable enough to wait until he could mate her officially. He shook his head at the mess he had created and stared out the balcony doors.

“That’s what I thought.” The Earth female snorted as she plastered a smile on her face when AriELa came bouncing back. The Prima was perky today. “Ready?”

“Yes,” she replied breathlessly. She had hurried, afraid that TarAK would make Lucy change her mind. She knew she didn’t stand a chance against TarAK on her own if he put his foot down. The male had ways of making her forget her own name. She was still a little frustrated with him.

He had not released within her. Not once throughout the night. She understood his reasoning, but still she couldn’t help but feel cheated almost. She was crazy for him, but he seemed to have complete control over his emotions. It was confusing. She hoped spending time away from him while shopping would help her clear her head. She frowned when she looked back and saw that he was following her out the door.

“Where are you going?” she asked.

“With you,” he replied.

She frowned but kept going. He was beyond difficult. How did females put up with males acting this way? She’d have to find out from Cassie and Jaxon the next time she saw them. Kat was easier to talk to, but her cousin, Syd, was a gentle male and couldn’t possibly be as much trouble as her other cousins.

“Prima! Prima! Please take these as a token of my family’s good wishes,” an older male called out. His mate was standing slightly behind him nodding her head. There really was no way to turn him down without hurting his feelings. The Kiljorns were just as prideful as the Katierans were.

“Thank you, sir. I would treasure these…beads for many years.” She had to look down in the middle of thanking him to see what was being thrust into her hands this time. It had been like that all day. Merchants would come out to the streets to greet her and then thrust some item into her hands. She had to send Lucy back to the suite to get something to carry everything in. TarAK was furious, complaining the situation was a security nightmare.

Another male waving gold bracelets stopped her as he walked toward them briskly.

“Great, another bobble for the Prima,” TarAK grouched.

“Be quiet, TarAK, before he hears…”

A bright burst of red flames suddenly appeared where the merchant had been. Smoke filled the streets. People began screaming. AriELa turned around in a circle, stunned and in shock. The ground seemed to shake beneath her feet.

“Get down!” TarAK yelled at AriELa.

Lucy leapt toward AriELa, knocking her backwards on to the ground. The air left her body. The tall female warrior looked down into AriELa’s frightened face. “Were you injured?”

AriELa couldn’t speak. She had just seen a man die horribly. Buildings were falling down around them and everyone was yelling from fear or screaming in pain. It brought back unwanted memories of when her family had been attacked.

*****

TarAK was in so much pain. That had been his first inkling that he was waking up. The next thought was of AriELa. Where was she? Was she harmed? He opened his eyes to a dark and smelly room. The walls were all metal. He assumed he was on board a ship. He tried to sit up only to fall back on his back. He had chains on his arms holding him down. He heard movement to his left, he wasn’t alone.

“Easy, Katieran. You will bleed out more quickly with sudden movements. On second thought, you might want that in preference to what the Morins plan to do to you,” a gravely male voice called out through the darkness.

“Who are you?” TarAK asked trying to see the male.

“That is a question I do not know the answer to anymore.”

Oh Kitana!
How long had this poor male been here? He must have asked the question out loud because the response from the other male was foreboding.

The prisoner answered with no emotion in his voice at all. “Long enough to forget who I am, but not long enough to have worn out my usefulness. That was until now. With you here, they no longer need me. Maybe I will finally be put to rest.”

“I don’t plan to stay here,” TarAK told him.

“That’s what I said too—seven years ago.”

Chapter Thirteen

“Come on, Prima, wake up,” Second Lieutenant Lucinda Daniels called out the younger woman’s name as she shook her shoulder a little.

AriELa moaned as she slowly opened her eyes. “What happened?”

“Wait for it, it will come to you,” Lucy told her.

Slowly the fuzziness from her head faded and AriELa was remembering the events that led her to where she was. She had been shopping outside of the Prime building. She had wanted to walk the streets and meet some of the people.

The female warrior, Second Lieutenant Daniels, and TarAK had gone with her, despite TarAK’s insistence that they remain inside the suite. One minute everything was fine, she was talking to people who greeted her warmly. A male vendor was running toward her with gold bracelets he wanted her to have.

Then the next moment, loud explosions went off all around them. Strong, sturdy buildings crumpled down. The male vendor with the bracelets burned right in front of her.

AriELa sat up too fast and it made her head spin. She remembered now. There had been several explosions and she saw part of a building collapse with people still inside. She had screamed. A couple of Morins had been on the street and they came after AriELa. TarAK tried to block them with his body and they shot him down.

She remembered the confusion and turning to find the Morins, her people’s enemy, standing before her. They had taken her, Lucy and TarAK on board their shuttle. They had hurt TarAK. He had not regained consciousness by the time they reached the Morin Transport ship. Then she was confronted with the Morin Leader, Krosis. The same one that had attacked her family all those years ago. She had to get off this ship and she needed to find TarAK.

“Where’s TarAK?”

“Easy, Prima. We don’t want them coming back until we are ready.”

Lucy had squatted down beside her and held AriELa’s slim arms in her hands.

“Where are we? Where’s TarAK?”

“I believe we are all on board the Morin Transport.”

“Are we still in the Kiljorn Solar System?”

“I’m not sure but…what the hell!” Lucy stood and started pacing the small room that they were locked inside of.

AriELa watched the warrior female as she talked and yelled, but there was no one else besides the two of them in the holding room. She rubbed her forehead back and forth with the palm of her hand. Lucy acted as if she was having a whole conversation with someone who was invisible. AriELa worried that her safety and TarAK’s life was in an unstable person’s hands.

Lucy came back over to AriELa with a determined look in her eyes. “How good are you at playing possum?”

“What is possum?”

Lucy sighed, “I need you to lay back down and start moaning like you are in extreme pain.”

“Why would I do that?”

“In order to get us out of here, I need for them to bring a medic for you. I want you to pretend to be in really bad shape. Moan about being in extreme pain. Keep your eyes closed so they can’t see if you are telling the truth. Can you do that?”
