  We hadn’t been able to keep our hands off one other completely, but our interaction had been completely unsatisfying. I was ready to fuck.

  I couldn’t wait to bond with him. And it wasn’t all about the sex.

  After the marriage, we would be closer than a human couple could ever be, thanks to the life bond. We wouldn’t be able to lie to each other. And apparently, Anders would never want to look at another woman. To be honest, I didn’t think we would need anything to ensure his fidelity. He only had eyes for me. I knew that would never change.

  He was different from Jake.

  Anders looked anxious. “The first time is going to be intense. We have to do things a certain way, according to custom. And I might not be exactly the way you remember me.â€�

  “I’m getting more and more confused with each sentence.â€�

  “Never mind. You’ll see. Come here and give me a kiss.â€�

  His touch was passionate and intense. I felt overwhelmed by his body, which seemed larger than I remembered. His wings surrounded me as his arms held me close. I could feel his bulge pressing between us. More than anything, I wanted to feel him inside me.

  Somehow his hands were on my breasts, but he couldn’t reach them through the dress. “Take your clothes off.â€� There was a demanding look in his eyes that was new to me. I had seen different sides of him before: the comic, the pilot, and the lover, but I didn’t know what he would be like as a husband.

  It turned me on. I began removing my clothes. There were about a thousand buttons on the front of my dress, and they all had to be undone. It was inconvenient, but it was so lovely that I had overlooked any impracticalities. I was regretting that decision now as I undid the tenth button. Anders watched my feverish fingers, his eyes dark with lust.

  I wondered if he was going to get impatient and tear the thing off me. The dress had cost a lot of money. I remembered that he had already waited a long time to have me. A few extra minutes wasn’t going to make a difference.

  “Did you ever—â€� I couldn’t complete the thought, cutting myself off before I said the words. I finally finished with the last button and spread the dress apart, revealing a matching bra and panties.

  “Let me take a guess. Did I ever think about you when I was jerking off? Of course. I couldn’t help it. I burned for you.â€�

  He wasn’t touching me now, though.

  I removed the dress and draped it over a nearby chair.

  “I think you have to put it on the altar.â€�

  “Can we dim the lights?â€� I felt exposed, which I usually didn’t like but now it was making me hot.

  He shook his head. I figured it must be against their wedding night rules. “You’re not in control here.â€�

  A spike of lust shot through me.

  “Get on the altar.â€�

  He repeated himself in a tone I couldn’t ignore.

  I dashed over to the altar while my breasts nearly fell out of the tiny bra which barely covered my nipples. I could feel my scrap of panties getting wet already.

  I had seen the altar earlier, but I thought it was just another table. I wondered how I could gracefully climb onto it. Without warning, Anders picked me up and set me on top. It felt like it was made of stone. Having a heavy altar like this on the spaceship was expensive. Every ounce of weight was carefully planned out. Even so, it felt like a slab of rock, and I must have looked like an offering to Anders.

  A pulse of energy shot straight into my core, making me gasp. Anders was between my legs, kissing me savagely. He couldn’t contain his pent-up desire any longer. His tongue dived into my mouth, claiming me with every silky touch. Finally, his hand reached up and cupped my breast, making me moan. He groaned when he found material again. He quickly unhooked my bra and tossed it away. He shoved his hands into my panties and ripped them off me, flinging them onto the floor.

  I was completely naked now. My pale skin gleamed in the bright light. I felt completely vulnerable. Anders spread my legs and opened me. I had nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. My breasts rose and fell with my harsh, uneven breathing. They looked swollen to me as I arched my back, eager to feel his touch against my skin. He put both hands on my boobs, lifting them a little before gently squeezing.

  I watched him without saying a word.

  His fingers caressed me, and with every touch, I felt the ache between my legs increasing. He circled the hard, pebbled tips of my breasts, making me go wild with desire. He pinched my nipples a little too hard and elicited a gasp.

  I realized I was nude and he was still completely dressed. I longed for him to get things moving but I had a feeling he didn’t want to rush things.

  I ran my hands over the smooth muscles of his arms and around his wings. He stepped back, eyes blazing, and dropped his pants to the floor.

  I had seen his cock a few times before. He hadn’t looked like that.

  “Don’t worry, Gwen.â€� He looked worried. “Auxem men are a little larger when we have our wings out.â€� There was nothing little about Anders right now. “You don’t have to be scared.â€�

  “I’m not scared.â€� It was mostly true. I was aroused…and somewhat frightened that he wouldn’t fit inside me.

  “It will fit. It always fits.â€�

  “How would you know?â€�

  “My brothers warned me about it.â€�

  I didn’t want to think about his brothers right then.

  “Kiss me again. We’re talking too much.â€�

  We spent the next few minutes making out. His long cock pressed between us, hard and ready to go.

  He pulled away and breathed sharply. “I can’t wait any longer.â€�

  “Then don’t.â€�

  With eyes closed in ecstasy, he eased the tip of his cock into me. He was really fucking big. He slid in a little more, spreading and stretching me. When I was ready, he sheathed himself completely, disappearing inside me as our bodies joined into one. He held still for a moment.

  But Anders had waited a long time for this, and soon he was moving again. He pulled out and thrust back at a slow, steady pace that had me writhing on the stone. Anders pushed me down, forcing me onto my back. I spread wide for him as he pleasured me.

  I felt my climax rising as he rocked into me. I thrashed beneath him. The joy overwhelmed me. My body felt hot all over. My clit throbbed and my nipples were incredibly sensitive. Every thrust took me higher. I squirmed as he plunged into my body, deeper and harder and faster.

  “Anders, please.â€�

  He dropped his hand between us and rubbed my clit. The additional stimulation was all I needed to set me off. I screamed as I came. It felt like an explosion.

  He called out my name as he pumped into me and filled me. The clenching spasms kept going as if the orgasm would never let me go. I felt a surge of energy flow between us, ending where our bodies joined. My heart had felt full at our wedding, but now I was overflowing with love. I looked up to see him staring at me too. Our eyes locked and I never wanted us to be separated again.

  I realized what had happened. We were bonded soulmate. I rested my head back on the altar. I didn’t wonder why he stayed inside me. I found out later it was a requirement of the mating ritual.

  If these were the Auxem wedding customs, I was ready to get married every day.

  The next time was against the altar again. Anders had barely softened inside me when he pulled out. The action stimulated everything in my core, and I hissed. He stared at me, putting his hands on my soft breasts. I wanted more. I didn’t think I could be ready to go so soon.

  “Turn around.â€� I flipped over, and he pulled me up until I stood. He bent me over the altar. I didn’t know what he was going to do since he had been
limp a second ago. I felt something hard push against my opening, and with a single thrust, he was deep inside me. He had said something about his stamina earlier.

  I leaned on the altar as he fucked me from behind. His hands were all over my breasts and clit while he pounded into me, bouncing against my soft ass until we both cried out again.

  We took a break and fell asleep on the bed, curled around each other. I woke to feel Anders inside me, moving softly and slowly. I don’t know how long we stayed like that before I came apart in his arms.

  The fourth time was in the bathtub. We spilled a lot of water. By that point, I could hardly walk. After that, we fell asleep, completely and totally worn out.

  We were completely and totally in love too.

  ANDERS

  The next morning, I woke and saw Gwen lying beside me, spent from our efforts. I pulled her to me. She pressed herself against me, making my morning erection become harder. I was utterly insatiable. Fortunately, she was too. Hot kissing and touching progressed until I couldn’t wait to have her anymore.

  I kissed and nipped at her neck while gently prying open her legs to make room for my hips. Gwen lined me up at her entrance. I sank deep inside her, closing my eyes at the pleasure of her wet heat. I pumped into her slowly, watching for signs of her impending orgasm. She arched up, and I took a nipple in my mouth, needing to suck her sweet pink buds.

  Soon she was moaning incessantly, and I sped up, pounding her in a frenzy. She let go, coming hard with a shattering release. As soon as she came, I exploded inside her, filling her deep with my seed.

  “Anders, each time seems better than the last.â€�

  I had to agree.

  Chapter Nineteen

  GWEN

  I gazed around the huge ballroom, determined not to be scared out of my mind. Everything either shined or glittered, including the beautiful people around me. I didn’t know if I stood out like a sore thumb, or if it was paranoia. Somehow Lyzette didn’t come off like a commoner. Maybe I didn’t either.

  I had married Anders and gotten pregnant almost immediately. It was hard to imagine a different outcome considering all the fucking we were doing. I had decided that I couldn’t live without Anders, so what else was I going to do?

  I had changed my mind about the risks of having my child being half Auxem. If all the people on their planet had managed to deal with the pain, I was sure our baby could too. And the benefit would be that she could fly. That was something I could never give her without Anders.

  We were in the Markan palace, and I wore another princess dress. It still had a poofy skirt, and I supposed I looked like every other woman there. The main difference between them and me was that I was a nobody who happened to have married a prince.

  Anders whispered into my ear as he came up behind me. “Half of these women are married to princes or kings. Believe it or not, quite a few of them are human.â€� It was as if he had read my mind.

  “You’ve got to be kidding me. Are you telling me all the women on Earth marry alien princes? Look at that one. She looks like she was born to be a queen.â€� I nodded at a cute brunette who was dancing with a tall, dark and handsome man.

  Anders shook his head, moving beside me. He laughed. “She’s a queen, all right, but she was born on Earth. Her name is Kenna. She’s married to the king of Susohn.â€�

  “I would never have guessed it.â€� I admired the scar on her upper thigh and looked around again. “What about that blonde?â€�

  “Okay, she’s a queen. Her mother stepped down to give her the crown.â€�

  “There you go. My royal radar’s not that bad. Who’s the other beautiful blonde? She doesn’t seem like she’s a queen. The guy she’s dancing with looks like a scoundrel.â€�

  “You’re two for three. Those are Ayrie’s friends, Nathaniel and Ashlyn.â€�

  “The ones who rescued them with their ship?â€�

  “Exactly. That’s enough guessing for now. Come dance with me. You’re making yourself anxious. I thought you were finally overcoming your fears now that you married into a royal family.â€� He led me onto the floor, and we started to sway gently together.

  “I hope I am. But this gathering makes me terribly nervous.â€�

  “I know. But we couldn’t turn down the Markanor when he wanted to celebrate getting rid of those fucking pirates.â€�

  He looked around quickly to see if anyone had heard him cursing.

  “Anders, you can take the pilot out of the starship, but you can’t take the starship out of the pilot.â€�

  “I guess you’re right.â€�

  “It is nice to be recognized, considering that we almost died.â€�

  “We weren’t even close to death.â€� Anders shook his head. “Our survival was guaranteed, even when the photon torpedoes started coming at us. I knew we’d figure it out.â€�

  “How could you know something like that?â€�

  “It was easy. Someone had just said she loved me. The universe wouldn’t let me die before I had sex.â€�

  “That’s your reasoning? You couldn’t die a virgin?â€�

  “You bet.â€� He grinned. “I was right, wasn’t I?â€�

  “You are something else.â€�

  “I’m your husband now. Father of your child too.â€�

  He put his hand awkwardly on my small baby bump.

  “I have a lot of titles, now that I think about it. The best pilot you’ve ever flown with.â€� He looked smug. “What else am I?â€�

  “Conceited, for one.â€�

  He shrugged with one shoulder. “Maybe.â€� He laughed and pulled me closer, giving me a quick kiss.

  I couldn’t keep myself from yawning. “Speaking of babies, I have to sleep for two now. Do you think we’ve stayed long enough?â€�

  “Are you tired?â€� His voice dripped concern.

  “Just a little bit. It’s nothing to worry about.â€�

  “Let’s start making the rounds to say goodbye. We can be out of here in half an hour.â€� He stopped and glanced at me. “Do you need to go right now?â€�

  “No, I’m fine. I can handle another thirty minutes.â€�

  “Okay.â€� He led me to the king of Susohn and the Markanor. I supposed there was nothing like starting introductions from the top. He waited politely until the two kings turned to us. All the breath left my lungs.

  Not only were they both royalty, but they were also devastatingly handsome.

  “Dar, Mikael.â€� Anders nodded to each in turn.

  “Anders, it was good seeing you. You’ll have to come to Susohn and bring one of those good-for-nothing brothers with you.â€�

  “Ayrie would love to go back to Susohn and finish his studies. But he’s got a wife now, and they’re trying to get pregnant. It might have to wait.â€�

  Dar shook his head. “I never thought I’d see the day the Madellan boys settled down.â€�

  “Speaking of settling down, this is my wife, Gwen. She’s a pilot, like me.â€�

  “The partners who did what couldn’t be done.â€� Mikael smiled. “They eradicated the pirates from my sector of the galaxy. They’re tonight’s guests of honor.â€�

  “That was you?â€� Dar looked at Anders with a newfound respect.

  Anders shook his head. “It was her.â€�

  Dar’s eyes got even bigger than before. “Very impressive, my lady. I saw the videos on the news.â€�

  “All I did was fly the ship.â€� I decided I should make a token attempt at modesty. “Anders had the hard job.�
�€�

  “Someone said all I had to do was push a button.â€�

  “That does sound like something that would come out of my mouth.â€�

  Dar burst out laughing. “She’s a smart one.â€�

  “Smart and talented,â€� Mikael added. “That’s a good combination. Anders needs someone to keep him on his toes.â€�

  “You can say that again.â€� Lyzette came up to join our little group. Mikael smiled warmly at her and put his arm around her waist. “I assume you’re talking about Gwen?â€�

  “I’ll do my best. The little one should help too.â€�

  “Are you expecting?â€� A smile spread across her face.

  “You couldn’t tell?â€� I felt big already because of the bump, but I guess it wasn’t too obvious.

  Before I knew it, I found myself in a discussion about the joys of being a parent. All of a sudden I realized that I was having a conversation with royalty like they were a bunch of starship pilots. I was getting over my anxiety!

  After a few minutes, Anders remembered that we were supposed to be saying goodbye. We left the Markan palace with a security escort. When Mikael and Lyzette had found out about our attack, they were appalled. Mikael insisted on providing safe passage to our starship this time.

  Anders took my hand, and we gazed up at the stars while trying to ignoring the security detail following us. When we got back to the fighter, I went into the changing area and put on my blue pilot’s uniform. It was the outfit in which I felt most comfortable, although the pants wouldn’t fit me much longer.

  We hadn’t been able to resist taking out the fighter again. We knew that our piloting days together were numbered. I had decided to take two years off to be with the baby before I returned to flight. We were trying to enjoy every minute in space together before the baby arrived.

  When I came out, I saw Anders lounging in the cockpit. He was still wearing fancy clothes.
