Warrior's Mate: A Sci-Fi Shifter Romance (Warriors of Vor Book 1)

“So wet and tight,” he growled harshly. “This is mine. This is my pussy, mate. You are mine! Tell me, now!”
Hunger clawed at her, brutally tearing through her system until she was writhing beneath him. She needed this, needing him filling her where she was empty and aching. Her pussy clenched around him, trying to hold his fingers inside her as he pulled them out.
No!
He couldn’t leave her, not when she was so close to coming. Speech was beyond her now, and she couldn’t help the whimper that escaped her parted lips.
“Need…”
His voice softened as he crooned, “Don’t worry, little one. I’ll give you what you need.”
Kadan kicked her feet apart, spreading her wider for him, then he let out a rumbling purr as his large body covered her back. His weight pressed her down into the bed, holding her in place, and his large hands pushed under her so he could cup her breasts.
Leaning down, he kissed the side of her face as she felt the large, rounded head of his cock press against the entrance of her dripping pussy. Her hands dug into the bedcover, gripping tight as he surged inside of her, pushing the thick stalk in, filling her more than she’d ever been filled before.
Her body tried to resist him, unused to being stretched around something so large, but the pinch of pain only increased the intensity of her pleasure. Needing more, she tried to push back on him, but he restricted her movements with his massive body, holding her beneath him. She heard an animalistic growl as she fought his control, and was surprised when she realized that the sound came from her own throat.
She wanted that cock moving inside her, driving deep, but he remained still, fully embedded in her. He was so big she could feel his heartbeat through the thick length of him, and she squeezed her pussy around him as punishment for not giving her what she wanted.
Kadan let out his own fierce growl of reprimand as he gave a few testing strokes inside her. She was tight, and could feel every ridge of the veins on his cock slide against the inner walls of her pussy. The slow, teasing movements drove her crazy, and she turned her head to bite his forearm. He let out a wild roar, then started thrusting hard, spearing her to the hilt with his cock.
A raw scream tore from her throat as her body exploded in a hard, brutal climax after a few more of his hard thrusts. Her body simply shattered, but it wasn’t enough to quench the firestorm still raging inside her. Never pausing, Kadan continued to shove himself deep, using a hard, punishing rhythm to drive her up again, pushing her past her limits.
“Again. You will come again before I fill you.”
Just the sound of his deep voice almost pushed Jordan over the edge again. She felt his hot mouth against her neck, then felt the rough scrap of his tongue against the smooth skin between her shoulder blades as he continued to pound himself into her. With each thrust, his large balls slapped against her clit, and after a few more strokes, she came again.
Desperate hands tore at the bedcover as her body bucked beneath his. Kadan never let up, continuing to fuck her through her release, ruthlessly pushing her toward another shattering climax before the last had faded. Her body was so sensitive, it was almost painful to feel his skin pressed against her now, and the burning in her belly seemed to expand until she felt like she would burst into flames.
“Hurts…”
“I know, mate. I will ease the fire inside you.”
His tongue stroked over the bite he’d made on the side of her neck, making her shiver. A sob tore from her, and tears leaked from her eyes as another wave of intense need hit her. She tried to evade him, but he held her head in place as he kissed away her tears. His hips pistoned against her ass as his cock roughly drove into her over and over again. He kept pumping into her, both of them desperate to complete their mating. He thrust once, twice more, then he threw his head back and roared.
Jordan screamed as she came again when she felt the first hard jets of his hot cum filling her. Her pussy seemed to greedily soak up the fluid, and her body shuddered when she felt the head of his cock swelling, locking him inside her. His enlarged cock head pushed against the tight muscles of her pussy, causing a twinge of discomfort as it nudged against her cervix.
He kept coming, shooting his seed deep inside her in hard spurts every few seconds for another long minute. Each burst of fluid seemed to cool the burning need inside her a little more, giving her relief from the pain that had rocked her.
Drained of energy, Jordan collapsed on the bed, allowing Kadan to hold her in place since they were still connected. When he stopped coming, he used his enormous strength to lift them both up so they were fully sprawled on the bed. Even though he was careful, she let out a yelp when his swollen cock tugged at her sensitive pussy.
Her mind slowly cleared a little, but it was still difficult to think. She felt him press his lips to the top of her head as he gently stroked her hair. They were both covered with sweat that was now cooling on their skin, but it felt good to her.
“Rest now, mate. You will need your strength for the next round.”
Good God, there was going to be a next round of this insanity?
Jordan didn’t even bother trying to form a response as he curled his huge body around hers. The fire inside her was still there, just embers now, making the pain tolerable.
But it was there…just waiting to build into another wild inferno.
When she was strong enough, she was going to kick his ass for infecting her with whatever the hell made her into a raging nympho, but for now, she simply let herself drift off to sleep listening to the comforting sound of his deep purr.
CHAPTER FIVE
Kadan had never felt panic before…until now.
It was five days into Jordan’s heat cycle, and it didn’t seem to be abating as it should.
A Vor females’ heat usually lasted three days, with the second day being the worst of cycle, then easing back to normal by the end of the third. The heat cycles were the way of ensuring that the mated couple had the best chance possible to conceive. More than that, it was a time of bonding for the couple. Of joining bodies and sharing thoughts with one another without any interruptions.
In the past, his friends had slyly commented about how much they looked forward to their mate going into heat, and how they wished it happened more than four times a year. Kadan had always thought that his warriors had exaggerated the feelings a male had for his mate, but now that Jordan was his, he knew the truth.
Nothing could have prepared him for the depth of his feelings for his mate.
He would kill for her
He would die for her.
And he would love her until he took his very last breath.
Falling in love was never something Kadan had ever really thought about. The truth was, he’d never thought he would ever find his mate. His life was filled with the duties of running the kingdom, and he’d told himself he was content with that.
But since he found Jordan, everything had changed.
He now knew why his father had followed his mother into the afterlife so soon after she had passed on. He’d thought he had understood before, but it hadn’t been possible. How could anyone truly understand without experiencing the powerful force of the mating bond for themselves?
It was a bond that would never be broken, and one that grew stronger with every minute he spent with Jordan.
That first day, Kadan had been blindsided by lust. Jordan’s heat had come on strong, and his own hunger had risen to match her urgent need. The scent of her desire was all that was needed to make his cock turn hard as stone. The Vor in mating heat were wild, untamed and voracious. Kadan had taken her over and over again, filling her with his seed to calm the firestorm raging inside of her as many times as she needed it.
Her body was beautiful, and his hands ached to feel it tremble beneath his palms whenever he wasn’t touching her. The flame color of her hair was dazzling, and he was haunted by her bright green eyes, even in his sleep.
Th
ey had rested in between bouts of making love, falling into the deep, dark well of exhaustion before the heat would no longer be ignored. Over the last few days, Kadan had woken several times to the exquisite feeling of his mate’s mouth on his cock, sucking and stroking him until he thought he would burst. It was something new to him. The female Vor never took a warrior’s cock with their mouths, and he was a lucky bastard to be given such a pleasure by his mate. He’d made sure he hadn’t come in her mouth, knowing that he needed to fill her tight pussy with his seed in order to give her the relief she needed.
Jordan had also introduced new positions of lovemaking to him. The Vor always fucked with the male behind a female, where they would have access to the small ridges on a female’s back, right between her shoulder blades. It was where their wings came out, and was an erogenous zone highly sensitive during sex.
Kadan had been surprised the first time Jordan had climbed on him before he’d fully come awake, and the feeling of her tight, hot pussy sinking down on his cock had made him shout out with pleasure. He’d liked facing her while he moved inside her. Enjoyed watching her expressive face as she came, over and over again.
He’d flipped them, needing to pound into her, harder, faster. Her long legs had wrapped around his waist, holding onto him, and small hands had stroked over his back, heightening his own pleasure. Kadan discovered that if he rubbed the little nub above her pussy, she went wild in his arms, bucking and crying out. The female human body was a glorious wonder, and he never thought he’d get enough of Jordan.
But something was wrong…Kadan could feel it.
Since that first day, the heat seemed to hit Jordan full force, and hadn’t eased since. After the first time he’d taken her, they had rested, but her need had woken her again a few hours later. He’d reveled in her untamed desire for him, but as time passed, he realized that what she was going through was nothing like what his friends had described to him. Their bedchamber had become her entire world. The heat ruled her body, and her power of speech seemed to be narrowed to a few choice words.
Need…want…more.
Between bouts of sex, Jordan slept. He’d cleaned her body, wanting her to be as comfortable as possible. Kadan had been grateful when food had been sent up from the kitchens, knowing that no one would bother them while his mate was in heat, but it had been a struggle to get Jordan to eat anything. When she was awake, she wanted to fuck. Afterward, all she wanted to do was close her eyes and rest, but she couldn’t even seem to do that well without him wrapped around her.
Kadan had forced her to eat, knowing she needed sustenance to keep up her strength. She’d fought him until he ended up holding her on his lap while he fed her small bites of food while he purred for her. The deep, rumbling sound was something the males of his kind only made after they had mated. It felt odd to him at first, but seeing her reaction to it made him want to do it all the damn time.
Yesterday, she’d been able to communicate a little more, but the heat still hit her hard every few hours. He’d held his poor little mate, stroking her with gentle hands as she’d cried. He knew she didn’t understand what was happening to her, and he tried his best to ease her fears. Guilt had eaten at him that he’d done this to her, but he couldn’t make himself be sorry for claiming her. Not when she was exactly where he needed her to be…in his arms.
Still, seeing her in pain wasn’t easy for him. Kadan had found himself doing something he’d never done since he became king of his people. He’d apologized. During their time together, he talked more than he ever had before. Wanting to give her as much information as possible, he told her about life of the Vor, and the problems that plagued their planet.
Initially, she had been furious when he explained his reasons for having her brought to his planet, kicking and screaming at him like some feral beast. She’d calmed after he told her that his race was dying, and that mating with humans was the only chance they had at survival.
Looking back toward the bed, he noticed that Jordan slept peacefully, but she wouldn’t stay like that for long.
She never did.
While she was resting, he put a pair of pants on, then strode toward the door. Kadan opened it, ready to call for his warriors. He paused when he saw Braec and Taitt with their shoulders propped against the wall in the corridor. They straightened and smiled in greeting. Kadan growled viciously at them as they tried to peak around him to see into the room. The sound caused the men to stiffen and spin around so their backs were facing the door.
“We didn’t see anything, but even if we did, your mate is completely covered,” Braec added quickly. Taitt shoved him when Kadan snarled again and pulled the door closed so they couldn’t see inside. After a moment, Kadan decided to leave it open slightly so he could still hear Jordan call out to him if she woke and needed him.
“We were wondering when you would finally surface,” Braec said, then bellowed an order for food to be brought to their king. He turned back to Kadan. “Or would you rather eat below?”
“No, bring the food up here.”
“I was the same way after I claimed Denaria. I’d have kept her locked in our chambers for a year if I could have,” Taitt said with a chuckle. “The chieftains have sent messengers to us asking when we will be bringing the humans to the other clans to see if they are mates to any of their warriors. Word has spread that you have found your mate, and that the convoy will have to wait until you give permission for them to leave.”
“Hold back on that,” Kadan ordered.
Braec’s grin faded as he got a good look at Kadan’s face. “My liege? You don’t have to feel bad about taking a few more days alone with your mate.”
“I don’t think that’s it. Is something wrong, Kadan?” Taitt asked. Even though Kadan was their king, the three of them were close friends. They had grown up together, and now Taitt and Braec were two of his top advisors.
Kadan sighed as he ran a hand through his hair. “My mate is still in heat.”
Taitt and Braec both gasped.
“How is that possible?”
“We thought you were taking some extra time to help your mate acclimate to our world. The mating heat should be gone by now,” Taitt said, worry clear in his voice.
“It seems as though the mating heat lasts longer in humans. It began almost instantly after I gave her the bite, and hasn’t let up yet. My mate is small, and this is hard on her.” Kadan paused for a moment before saying, “It worries me. Anyone who mates with a human will have to be informed of this. They need to be made aware of how to care for their human mate properly.”
Taitt straightened to his full height. “We’ll send word to the chieftains that you would like to speak to them before the humans are taken to their clans. I think this information needs to come from you in order for them to know what to expect.”
“That’s probably best.”
Braec nodded. “Don’t worry about anything but helping your mate. We’ll watch over the kingdom for you until this is settled.”
“Do you need anything?” Taitt asked. “I can ask Denaria and a few of the females to come bathe your mate or—”
Offended, Kadan let out an angry growl. “It is my honor and my duty to care for my mate. I alone will see to her needs.”
Braec smirked. “You must be really tired after five days of…taking care of your mates needs. If you need any help—”
His words were cut off as Kadan’s hand wrapped around his throat.
Taitt clasped Kadan on the shoulder. “You know he’s joking, Kadan.”
“Never joke about that. No one touches Jordan but me.” Kadan spoke in a low, dangerous tone that immediately made both males bow their heads in deference.
“Forgive me, my liege,” Braec said seriously after Kadan released him. “I should not have spoken about the queen like that. I’m glad you’ve found your mate, Kadan. You deserve to be happy.”
“She is my light. Just being with her makes me happy, but it is now my job to ensur
e that she can be content living here on Vor. She has given up a life on her home planet, and I plan to see that she never regrets being with me.” Kadan flushed as he realized how besotted he sounded. Then again, he didn’t really give a shit since it was all true. Another warrior came down the corridor holding a large tray of food, and Kadan took it from him. “We will remain in my quarters until Jordan’s heat is done. See that we aren’t disturbed.”
The warriors bowed as Kadan walked back into the bedchamber. He closed the door with his foot, then looked over at the bed to see Jordan watching him as she sat up. “I heard voices.”
“Sorry we woke you. Are you hungry?” Kadan set the tray on a table beside the bed when she shook her head. Reaching out, he trailed a finger down her soft cheek, then he smiled as she nuzzled against his hand. Her bright red hair was mussed from sleep, and her green eyes were soft and slumberous. Just looking at her made his cock harden and his heart pound painfully in his chest.
“Kadan…”
“Yes, mate?”
“I woke up while you were talking to your friends.” Jordan paused before continuing. “Did you mean what you said out there? That you want me to be happy here?”
Kadan nodded slowly. “Of course. I don’t want you to have any regrets, Jordan.”
“So, I’m not just some sort of love slave to you?”
Amusement flashed through him. “Love slave? That does have an interesting ring to it, but sadly, no. I’d say I’m more your love slave at the moment. You are my mate, Jordan Krell, Queen of Vor. You will rule Vor at my side.”
“Even though I’m human?”
“You are my mate,” he repeated, then watched the slow smile spread across her lips. He could see her eyes darkening as the heat began to build inside her again.
“You know, I’m probably going to want to change some things here if this is going to be my home now.”
He frowned. “What do you mean?”
“Oh, just things like making sure that any humans you bring here don’t wake up chained and terrified out of their minds. And maybe warning them about this mating stuff, and try to get them to understand that if their mate shifts and changes into a demon that he’s not trying to eat her.”
