Lovers of the Galaxy: Book Three: Raiders of the Lost Heart

by Trinity Blacio

  Jaxxon pulled the chair away from the elevator with her in it and stepped in front of her. “So what if you do get the elevator running? Are you planning on going down there alone?”

  She leaned back in her chair, stared up at Jaxxon, and folded her arms. “Do you really believe I would be that dense, Jaxxon? I was going to see if I could get the elevator working first then wait for you and Volund.” Hurt that he would think her so stupid, the last word she spoke came out in a whisper.

  She didn’t say anything as Jaxxon kneeled in front of her and sighed. “I’m sorry, but you are so used to taking care of everything yourself.”

  Gram snorted behind them. “You should have seen her as a child. She was three times worse.”

  “Gram, you’re not helping.” Venus looked over her shoulder at her and cracked up when she saw the magazine she held, head cocked to the side as the magazine unfolded and the centerfold was revealed. Her grandmother’s eyes grew big and a frown replaced the smile as she stared at the long, shiny page. When Venus had searched through this floor, she’d stuck all the porn magazines inside the chair when she ran across them.

  “That perverted son of a bitch, he even has kiddie porn. I always told your grandfather not to trust the snake.” She ripped up the magazine. Looking up, here she noticed Acwel and she actually blushed.

  Acwel grinned and kneeled next to her. “How are you feeling today, Belinda? Can I get you anything to drink or eat?” He shook out the blanket Venus had brought and tucked it into the chair around her.

  “Should you even be up?” He frowned and looked over at Venus, but turned back to her Gram when she snorted.

  “I’m fine. Now quiet fussing over this old lady and help Jaxxon.” Gram waved him away, but he only laughed.

  “You are not old. I’m afraid I’m much older than you. To me you are the young one,” he teased and then stood up.

  Jaxxon laughed at Acwel and picked up Venus’s things. “Would you mind if I use my own instruments?”

  Leaning forward, she wrapped her arms round his shoulders. “I love it when you use your tools and you can use them anytime you want.” She licked the side of his neck. “But I think we should wait until we are alone.”

  Gram, Acwel, and Venus laughed as Jaxxon fell backward and moaned. “You do not play fair,” he grumbled.

  Chapter Ten

  Venus took her chair and moved over to sit next to Gram while Jaxxon and Acwel worked on the elevator’s code. Every few minutes he would glance back at them and grumble about something. She grinned and admired the way his muscles in his backside tightened whenever he moved.

  “You-hoo, Venus!” Gram waved a hand in front of her face, laughing. “Girl, you have it bad. So tell me is this alien man of yours any bigger than an Earth man’s…? Do they have anything extra I should be warned about when the new group of men arrives?” She whispered into her ear both Jaxxon and Acwel turned their attention towards them.

  Taking a sip of her water, Venus choked and gagged. Her face now burned, and she turned toward her grandmother. “Gram they heard every word you said!”

  She motioned at Jaxxon and Acwel, who grinned like a fool at both of them. “Go on,” he coaxed, “tell your Gram what she wants to hear.” He crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the wall.

  Not one to back down, Venus turned away from Jaxxon. “Well, Jaxxon and Volund both have these fine hairs on their…well, you know… They’re about an inch or two larger than most Earth men’s cocks. Oh, and they have fangs like the old vampire stories that they use to bite you, releasing some kind of hormone…” Her face heated, and she peeked to see Jaxxon adjust himself. “Well, let’s just say it enhances the lovemaking by ten times.”

  Gram fanned herself and looked over at Jaxxon then at Acwel. “Damn, I’m going to have to get well soon.” She patted Venus’s arm and again whispered. “Are this Acwel and Badden the same as your men? Don’t get me wrong, I loved your grandfather and still do, but he’s gone now.” She glanced out the window near them.

  “Your grandfather transformed before I did. I had no choice… He kept coming after me.” She twisted back to Venus. Tears ran down her cheeks. “I took his shot gun and killed him. I buried him that same day, because I knew I was changing, too. I’d planned on killing myself next, but I was too late. The final stages of the change were fast, and it’s the last thing I remember.”

  Reaching over, Venus hugged her grandmother, careful of the now-open sore on her back, the last spike having just fallen off. “I’m so sorry, Gram, but Grandpa would have wanted you to do it, anyway. I knew someone had been killed when I went by to check on you a couple days later, but I just didn’t know who.” She released her and grabbed the ointment she had in her pouch at her side. “Lean forward, Gram. I want to put some more of this on the open spot. Your last spike has fallen off.” Acwel along with Jaxxon came over to them.

  “It’s hard when it’s a loved one. But when it’s for the protection of others, or to save them from unending pain, then it’s for the best.” Acwel reached for her Gram’s hand and squeezed it.

  “Badden was the one who had to kill our mate. She was bitten by one of most poisonous creatures on our world and would have suffered much. Even our civilization with its high tech science couldn’t save her.”

  “I’m so sorry for you both. I was with my husband for over sixty years and we had a wonderful life.” Gram smiled and leaned forward.

  Jaxxon kneeled next to her grandmother and inspected her back. “You should use the tube I gave you yesterday. It already looks like most of the skin has grown over the other places. I would say by tomorrow your back will be eighty percent healed.”

  He patted Gram’s other hand and kissed her cheek. “If your husband was anything like you and Venus, I’m positive he would have wanted you to do what you did, but do not worry,” he leaned in, pretending to whisper in her grandmother’s ear, “I can vouch for Acwel and Badden they’re sapins are just as large as ours, but the new soldiers coming to Earth brag that they’re sapins are much bigger. There is also a special node that does many things to make a woman scream in pleasure.”

  Venus dropped the tube and sat up straight. “Jaxxon!”

  Her Gram smiled and wiggled her eyebrows at her. “Well, it looks like I might have some fun after all.” She elbowed her teasingly.

  “Humph, maybe I need to check out one of these new men, too,” Venus mumbled and turned to see Volund had come in with two new warriors.

  She stared up at the men embarrassed to be caught talking about this in front of strangers. “Not another word Gram.”

  Gram snickered and eyed the new men in the doorway.

  Volund had been right, there was no way they could have hidden the red scale-like skin. One had eyes that were black as night, but he had full red lips and a long forked tongue that came out when he spoke. She shivered seeing the strangers.

  Being afraid of spiders wasn’t the only thing Venus didn’t care for, Snakes and reptiles were not something she felt comfortable around, either.

  As if sensing Venus’s reaction, Gram leaned forward and patted her arm reassuring her.

  “It seems like your mate may like a new man after all. What’s happened to you, Volund? You once had two women begging for your sapin before you mated. Have you lost your touch?” One of the strangers said, teasing Volund, placing him on her so wanting to be shot list.

  Her gaze jumped to Volund. She could have sworn his eyes flashed red fire before he roared a battle cry and lunged for her.

  ***

  Volund rushed Venus and threw her up over his shoulder, careful not to hurt her or the babies. “There will be no other men with Venus—EVER!” He stormed past everyone. “Jaxxon, introduce Zandor and Remus to Venus’s Gram, while I show our mate a few things she needs to learn. Badden you and Acwel explain the new plans to them.”

  “You don’t understand. Put me down, Volund. You can’t come in the middle of a conversation and make assu
mptions!” Venus slapped his ass before he slammed through their bedroom door. He lowered her feet to the floor and backed her up against the wall. He reached up and ripped her sweater in half, exposing her large breasts to his view. “You said you needed to try a new man. It isn’t going to happen, Venus. We just need to give you a little more attention.” Volund covered her mouth before she could say a word. He pushed her pants down over her hips and then down to her ankles.

  Never breaking the kiss, Volund got rid of his armor with a push of a button. He reached between them and slid two fingers into her quivering sypu. Anytime Volund or Jaxxon touched her, her body heated until their actions put out the sexual tension they called up. However, this was different. Volund hesitated..

  He broke the kiss and leaned his forehead against hers, removing his fingers from her pussy and grasping her butt cheeks instead. “Will you trust me?”

  She frowned and cocked her head to the side as she slipped her arms around his neck. “Of course I trust you. I carry our children, you have saved my life a number of times and I love you.” She kissed his lips. “I love you both. I would die for you.”

  Stepping away from her, he nodded to their sleeping platform. “Get on the bed on your hands and knees. I want that ass facing me,” he ordered. At the sound of his voice, her nipples hardened as she followed his sexual command.

  “Jaxxon and I have been waiting to show you a few things. On our world, Azutuan males have many different body parts that are used to please our women. The mirellae is just one thing.” He ran his hand down her spine to her butt cheek and squeezed.

  “Such a lovely body and all ours. No one—and I mean no one—will ever touch this body except Jaxxon and me. There will be no other men for you. If you need a different sort of loving, we know many forms of sex. Spread your legs wide apart.” He leaned over the mattress, moving her legs just as he wanted her.

  “Volund?” she whispered, excited, wet, and ready for whatever he was going to do.

  “Not a word, just feel, Venus.” One, then two of his fingers moved in and out of her pussy until they were nicely coated with her juices. He brought them to his mouth. “So sweet.”

  Venus whimpered as she glanced over her shoulder to see Jaxxon transhifting into the room.

  “Her Gram and Charlotte are keeping our friends occupied,” he stated. “I see Venus is ready.”

  Chapter Eleven

  Jaxxon crawled on the bed in front of Venus. “Watch me and only me. As you know, our skin is thicker and tougher than yours, but what you don’t know is that our skin moves and grows. Right now Volund is giving you what you need so don’t be frightened.”

  Behind her, Volund crawled onto the bed and placed his hands on her butt cheeks, separating them. Warm lube squirted into her ass, preparing her for his cock, and then he slowly worked his cock into her. At least she thought it was his cock until…

  “What the…?” She tried to look over her shoulder, but Jaxxon leaned down into her face as something worked into her pussy at the same time.

  “Look at me. What you are feeling is not one of your human toys. We do not need those.” Jaxxon grinned and brushed her hair back away from her eyes. “Sweet warrior, we can create many wonderful things.” Jaxxon rose from the bed as Volund ran his hands up her back and placed kisses where his hands had just been.

  Covering her body with his body, Volund worked the new cock-like appendage in and out of her ass as his cock moved in her pussy. He held her still and rolled to his side turning her, her backside against his belly. Skin that resembled wings slowly enclosed them in a cocoon-like structure.

  “Volund?” Venus panted and grabbed onto his thighs. Her skin heated, and little orgasmic tremors started to soar through her.

  Volund kissed the side of her cheek. “Hush, it’s okay. I feel what you feel, so you should be able to feel what I feel. All our senses will be heightened tenfold. We move the slightest bit…” To show her what he meant, Volund covered her breasts, pinching and pulling her nipples.

  “What…?” Venus couldn’t even think as Volund’s every movement sent orgasmic ripples of heat through her. His hips never stopped their movement. The foreign object in her ass swelled and shrank repeatedly. There were no mirellae on that appendage. No, this one had little bumps which seem to suck on her inner walls.

  Volund licked and kissed her neck. He stiffened and released his seed into Venus which triggered another round of sexual surges through her.

  “NO MORE, PLEASE!” Venus shouted. Sweat rolled down her face and over her breasts. Her legs trembled, and she could not move.

  Slowly, the wing-like skin opened, and a cool breeze blew over her. Venus shook as Volund hugged her tighter.

  “I’ve got you. Hold on, it’s not over. It takes a little time for my body to stop.” He grunted and once more something in his cock sent a small sexual charge within her pussy.

  Venus whimpered.

  He turned her again so that she rested on her stomach. “Just a little while longer, my samir takes a little time to unhook from you.”

  She glanced back at him, and he smiled. “Right now I’m tired and need a bath. I expect a total report on what else I can happily,” Venus sighed and laid her head down, “expect.”

  He kissed her butt cheek before slipping out of her. “I don’t think so. I think we’ll surprise you. Just think of the possibilities. Maybe now you won’t be wishing for others.”

  He smacked her ass. “Now get up and bathe. We have company and I don’t want to leave them alone too long with your Gram and Charlotte. The whole squadron will be downstairs soon.”

  “What?” Venus slid off the bed when he moved, but that was a mistake. She tried to stand but her legs wouldn’t hold her. Her knees buckled and Jaxxon caught her.

  “Slowly, Venus, the samir gives you much pleasure, but it also takes much energy. You will need to drink and eat something strong in protein.” Jaxxon carried her to the bathroom and sat her in the tub that had been already filled.

  “When did you fill this?” Venus asked and sank fully into the tub, moaning.

  “You were inside the mating enclosure for over an hour.” Jaxxon helped her sit up and took the shampoo. He began washing her hair.

  “Hmm, we need to hurry, Jaxxon” She closed her eyes for a minute.

  “From what I can tell, your grandmother was enjoying Badden and Acwel company, but not the other two. Her scent changed and her face got that color you get when you need more sex.”

  Venus spun around, soap dropping into her eyes and mouth. “She what, already! Damn this soap burns!”

  Laughing, Jaxxon dumped a big cup of cold water over her head.

  “That wasn’t funny and I don’t trust those two that Tapio sent. I won’t let them hurt Miln or any one here. Do you really think Gram is interested in Badden and Acwel? I like them, and all three of them have lost someone they loved.” She relaxed under Jaxxon’s hands as he rinsed the soap out of her hair.

  “I think the three of them need each other. It will help them heal as Volund did when we found you. As for the other men, we’ll have to wait and see. I don’t want you getting upset Venus, think of the babies, they don’t need the extra stress.”

  “Then I think you need to tell them they better not mess with my friends.” She stood with the help of Jaxxon who smiled.

  “You are going to be very protective of our children. I can see it already.” He dried her and helped her put on new clothes.

  Volund sat at the table and watched the new men bring in more supplies and food staples. Zandor and Remus sat across the table staring at him. Venus’s grandmother had excused herself to go lie down. Both Acwel and Badden followed her making sure she was tucked in to her bed. Venus still grinned at Gram’s reaction.

  “I don’t’ need anyone to tuck me in. I’m fine,” she argued, but both men ignored her and helped her anyway.

  Zandor leaned forward. “I see Miln’s family is here. Where are Miln and Oshki? I never c
onsidered them cowards.”

  Venus hovered over his shoulder. “For your information, they’re busy looking for other females to bring back. So back off.”

  Smiling, Volund pulled Venus into his lap. “I don’t think you have been properly introduced. Venus, this Zandor and Remus. They were sent here to guard you and secure our home base.” Volund tensed, and he squeezed her tighter. Tension filled the room. Each man stared at the other.

  Remus laughed and bowed his head. “It is a pleasure to meet you, Venus. We are sorry if we upset you.” The tension slowly seeped out of the room, and she nodded to the man.

  Jaxxon sat next to them and took Venus’s hand, kissing it. “Our bonded one is very protective of those she considers friends. She is also highly trained at protecting herself. Venus, why don’t we take Volund, Zandor, and Remus into the tunnels you and your Gram found?”

  “What’s this?” Volund pulled a folded paper out of Venus’s pouch she always carried with her.

  She reached over and took the paper out of Volund’s hand. She opened the paper and spread it on the table. “This is a map. A survey done on the city about a year before all hell broke loose. I found it when I took over the mayor’s rooms here. I was thinking we might be able fence in this area.” She pointed to the red circle around the city fountain with a light stylus. “It’s a small area, but I believe we should start here. If the mayor’s plan had been put in place, all the resources that are any good to us are going to be under this section anyway.” Venus looked back at Volund. “Do you have anything like that Pentor stuff that would work as a fence?”
