Nicolas: Love me Harder - Alien Paranormal Romance

by Simpson, Serena

  Again, he heard his name being called as he moved in her direction. His huge feet made loud noises on the ground. His mate. He needed to see her. He saw her long before she saw him. She was in the presence of his brothers. Her captor was nowhere to be seen. He’d fled. His stench was no longer in the air.

  He walked out into the open and stopped. Would his brothers fight to keep him away from his mate? Would she run now that her eyes were on him? He looked down at her. She was so small and fragile. He would never hurt her.

  He watched as she broke away from the others. His name wrenched from her lips before she began to run to him. She never stopped to think. She simply came.

  He caught her as she tried to jump up and hug him. His mate. He reached down and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek as he let his alien form recede. Once again, he became the humanoid. His mate couldn’t kiss or hold him in his true form and he needed to get much closer to her.

  “Janis.”

  “Nicolas. I knew you would come and save me. I knew you would win.”

  “When I saw that Crux next to you, looking at you as if you were its next victim…”

  “Shh...” She hugged him tightly and placed kisses on him, trying to calm him and reassure him at the same time.

  “I never doubted, Nicolas. I knew you would come and I knew you would bring the Cavalry with you.”

  He picked her up in his arms as he walked over to his brothers. Aran tossed him a pair of pants.

  “You may want to put those on.”

  He grabbed them and slid them on in one easy motion. When his other side emerged fully, he’d shredded the pants he’d been wearing.

  “What happened to the tainted one?”

  “When he realized his two champions were no match for us, he jumped into his own glider and ran before we could go after him,” Aran answered him.

  “Why would he only have two Crux against all of us? He knows we are a family. He knows we stick together,” Nicolas said looking over the area.

  “Don’t underestimate that Scientist or over simplify his actions. He’s been coming after all of you for several hundred years now. That he would inject himself with Created DNA and follow you to this planet on the outskirts of any remotely intelligent outpost means you are a threat to him,” Dante answered his question.

  Aran looked at Hale who held a sleeping Theresa in his arms. She passed out when they attacked the Crux. He thought it was for the best one less memory they would have to adjust.

  “Dante is right. He will be back. This was simply to keep us off balance while he plans his final move. Dante, contact your brother. Let’s go home.” Aran gave the command.

  Chapter Twenty Nine

  Home. Janis was sure if she thought hard enough about it, she could pick out some song from the radio to commemorate coming home. Instead, all she could do was watch Nicolas, who sat in the sitting room with his head and shoulders down.

  He’d been sitting that way for over an hour, simply brooding. Nothing she said was getting through that hard head of his. She’d seen his other form in all of its glory. She knew his skull was thick.

  Giving up, she went and took a shower. She needed to wash off several days of funk. The joy of being home made her smile, as she hummed a tune about love. Once done, she went into the bedroom and found the naughty surprise she’d picked up when she and Lorali snuck out.

  She walked back into the sitting room and stood in front of Nicolas with her hands on her hips.

  “Eyes up here,” she ordered.

  She heard the audible gasp as his eyes got bigger.

  “Care to tell me what has you so down?”

  “Care to tell me where you got that outfit?”

  “You first.”

  “You could’ve been killed. The Crux would have tried to impregnate you. If he didn’t rip you to shreds in the process, the birth of the child would’ve killed you.”

  “Dr. Young and his band of merry sons would’ve killed me too, if you hadn’t been there. Every time there has been danger you have saved my life. I don’t know about you, but I’m liking my chances. Before you, my chances were zero. Now, I’d say they were a hundred. Who could ask for more?”

  “Janis.”

  “Stop. No one knows the future. All I know is I love you. That in and of itself is amazing. I want to be with you, and if possible have your children. Nothing and no one is going to make me change my mind. I spent too much time living in a protective zone, thinking everything would be ok if I simply kept my head down. No more. I’m going to live life and I want to live it with you.”

  Nicolas stood up and looked down at her before a smile emerged from his lips.

  “We love you.” She saw his other side looking out his eyes as he said it a glow of joy surrounded her.

  “Of course you do. I’m awesome.”

  He reached down and picked her up. She wiggled in his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck, giving him a deep kiss. He smacked her rear and walked into the bedroom.

  “Now where did you find that tempting outfit?” He dropped her on the bed making her giggle.

  “Lorali showed me a store she found. It carries special things in it.” Janis reached down and pulled a nipple that was peeping out of the bra she was wearing. It was cut to let her nipples show.

  Nicolas’s eyes got big as he watched her fingers play with her nipple, pulling it and pinching it. Then his eyes went down to her crouchless panties, watching her juices seep out of her wet pussy.

  He took a nice deep lick of it before coming up to kiss her deeply, allowing her to taste herself on his tongue.

  “Your taste is so intoxicating, Angel.”

  He replaced her fingers with his on her nipple and pulled at the hard nub, making her moan before his lips came down to suck her nipple into his mouth. The feel of his mouth sucking her and his teeth biting hard enough to bring pleasure and pain had her hands running up and down his back as she encouraged him.

  He gave a deep growl before he turned to the other nipple. A wave of fire hit her already needy pussy as the sound of his roar ran down her nerve endings. The sound of his beast’s voice played through her mind as he proclaimed ‘not his mate’.

  Her mouth opened on a gasp of needy desire as the two voices had her body convulsing in ecstasy.

  He lowered his mouth and dove into her center causing the small gasps to become keening cries as her body convulsed around him.

  He gave her one wicked looked before plunging deep into her.

  “So good, Nicholas.” Her body came up to meet him, thrust for forceful thrust, as she tried to become one with him.

  “Janis.” Her name came out as a plea, as he ground himself deep within her. “I can’t imagine my life without you.”

  She wrapped her legs around him as she tried to get closer. “I’m not going anywhere.”

  His hips moved faster making her words turn into a frenzy of pleas. One last stroke had her coming apart in his arms as he joined her, sending them both on a sensuous journey.

  “Mate.”

  “My Alien Angel.”

  He stood before her, his true form revealed to her. It was different than anything she’d seen before he’d killed the Crux.

  “Where are we?”

  “My planet. This is one of the places I enjoy, even though I have never seen it with my true eyes.”

  They stood on rocky ground as the sea licked against the shore line. In the distance were several mountain peaks. The moon was high in the sky and the rocky beach shimmered like diamonds in the night. It was beautiful.

  “You weren’t sacred of me.”

  “You’re my mate. I know whatever form you’re in, you will always take care of me.”

  “You’re an amazing mate.”

  She laughed. “I do believe I have already told you that.”

  He smiled at her. “More will come.”

  She nodded her head. “I know.”

  “It’s not safe for you
with me.”

  “It’s not safe for me anywhere, but I’m safer with you.”

  “What if I found a place for you where your safety was guaranteed?”

  “Unless you plan on being there, I’m not going.”

  He smiled at her. A smile she knew would make others run down the street, running from his huge fangs and sharp teeth. It simply made her heart flutter. Her alien angel.

  She went over to him and lifted her arms. He bent down and picked her up. She made herself comfortable against his chest and fell asleep.

  “A cookout?” She looked at him and laughed.

  He’d woken her this morning, saying they were all getting together at Aran’s house for a cookout. In addition to their family, Dante and all his brothers would be there also.

  She’d gotten up and started making potato salad. That was the dish she’d decided to make after several calls with everyone, before Rena said forget this and hooked them all up via computers and phones.

  Now they were getting out of the jeep, with Nicolas carry the largest bowl she could find, filled with potato salad into the house.

  “Janis!” Happy voices greeted her when she entered.

  “Looking good, girl,” Rena’s voice rang out.

  “We’re going outside. The males are out back or in the kitchen bickering with one another. Come on out. Our jobs are done, now it’s up to the males.”

  Janis followed them out of the house to find a comfortable seating arrangement and an outdoor kitchen. Aran and Sergey were manning the grill.

  “You have to tell us what it was like to be held captive by the evil one and to have two Crux wanting you.” Lorali put her hand over her heart and made faces that had them laughing.

  Dee gave them a small smile and they stopped joking around. Dee found it hard to even joke about being kidnapped.

  “Are you alright, Janis?” Dee asked.

  “He was so focused on our males, he never touched me or Theresa. I just hope she will be ok.”

  “I talked to her, Janis. She’s doing fine. She’s in the safe house with the rest of the victims. Dante spoke with her, she won’t remember what or who the Created are. I think that’s best for her,” Lorali said, reassuring her.

  Janis nodded.

  “Hotdogs, hamburgers, and steaks. Come and get it,” the males shouted over to the women, with smiles on their faces.

  Janis stood and looked around. She could never have imagined a family she could interact with and be herself. Her world changed and she loved it. A hotdog had her name written on it. She walked towards Nicolas joining in on the fun.

  Hale – Book 5 Excerpt

  Coming Soon

  Chapter One

  Tori looked around her office and slumped in her chair. She’d given everything to her dying business, but nothing worked. She guessed it really didn’t matter now. In two weeks, the banks would foreclose and she would be left with nothing.

  Dragging her tired body out of the chair, she started straightening up. A few minutes later, she decided it was time to call it a day. She would go home and rest while she had the chance. The sound of loud voices in the hallway caught her attention, making her smile for a moment. It would be so nice if they would knock on her door.

  The smile turned into a frown. That wasn’t going to happen. Her best friend, well her former best friend, had gone out of her way to ruin Tori. Ta da! She managed to do it in record time.

  Why? Over a guy of course. Tori may have even understood, if she were interested in the guy, but she wouldn’t touch that creep with a ten foot pole. Would her friend listen? No, she believed every word out of that liar’s mouth and moved to destroy Tori. It was easier for her ex-friend to destroy her than to acknowledge Tori was correct.

  She was putting up the last of the paperwork when the footsteps and the loud laughter stopped in front of her door. Taking a deep breath, she eavesdropped on the conversation in the hall.

  “Are you sure this is the right place?” A deep male voice asked.

  “I’m telling you, this is where Dante said to come.” A female voice replied.

  “I don’t understand why the two of you couldn’t go on your own. Why did Dante have to drag me into it?” The sound of the second man’s voice was enough to make Tori want to snatch the door open. She loved voices like his, so deep every nerve ending in her body stood up and took notice.

  “You agreed to be my best man.” The first male voice spoke again.

  “I thought all I needed to do was hand you the ring. That’s what Lorali told me.”

  “I’m sure I said more than that Hale. Can we stop hanging out around the door and go in? I’m sure the occupant of the office is wondering what’s going on out here.”

  There was a knock on the door. Tori stood behind the desk, trying to look casual and not like she wasn’t paying attention to every word they’d said.

  “Come in,” She planted a smile on her face.

  A man and a women walked in. They were holding hands. They had the look of a couple who were truly in love, and if the rock on her finger meant anything, they were engaged to be married.

  She thought the woman was beautiful and the man was devastatingly handsome, but she couldn’t look away from the third person long enough to be sure. ‘Help me, please’ she murmured to herself.

  When did they start making men like him? He was incredibly tall with platinum hair. She wanted to run her hands through it to see if it was as silky as it looked. Could that be his real hair color? What about his eyes? She had never seen anything like them before. They seemed almost clear, like the rarest of diamonds.

  When they all stood and simply looked at her, she realized she was staring and yes lusting after the Greek god who just walked into her office. She closed her mouth and discreetly wiped off the drool from the corner of it.

  She pasted on an even brighter smile before gathering her courage to speak. “Welcome to Weddings by Tori. How can I help you with your wedding needs?”

  She wondered how long it would take before they apologized and fled. Surely they were looking for Grand weddings by Rita, her ex best friend.

  “I told you we were in the right place.” The woman threw both men a smug look.

  “Hi, I’m Lorali and this is Sergey.” She indicated the man standing on her right. “We’re engaged to be married.” She gave Tori the dreamy smile of a woman in love.

  Tori stopped responding to that smile ages ago, but Lorali’s smile managed to take her by surprise and Tori gave her a genuine smile in return.

  “Hi, I’m Tori it’s nice to meet you both. It is also nice to meet you.” Tori turned and acknowledged the other man in the room.

  “I haven’t forgotten him.” Lorali smiled at him before adding. “Tori, this is Hale. He’s one of Sergey’s brothers. There are six of them all together. They are all as tall and as broad as these two and don’t get me started on their friends. Which brings me to the reason we’re here.”

  “Why don’t you all sit first? Then you can tell me what I can help you with.”

  Tori did a bit of rearranging with the chairs until she was sure they would be seated comfortably. She sat at her desk and motioned for Lorali to continue.

  “I’m going to need a large private venue. It will need to have both indoor and outdoor space, preferably someplace with a pond or a lake. I’ll also need…”

  The loud crash in the hallway drew their attention.

  “Tori, are you in there? Did you do this to me?” There was a loud banging on the door and a wome
n walked in, looking like she’d been caught in the rain.

  “I’m tired of your tricks, Tori. You keep trying to steal my business, but it won’t work this time.”

  Tori looked at Rita. She was everything Tori thought she wanted to be, Rita including a perfect size three. Tori had always envied her, even as children. Tori on the other hand felt she was just average. Rita had beautiful blonde hair and sky blue eyes. She was an angel. A fallen angel.

  Tori sat back and decided she might as well enjoy the show. Rita was well versed in the theatrics of the poor victim. It never mattered in the past how much Tori protested. Every client believed Rita, although she never stooped this low before.

  “Sorry to disappoint you folks, but Weddings by Tori is just a sham. She will take your money, then pull up roots and move on. I have a very nice office just down the hallway and many successful weddings under my belt.”

  Rita stopped to give them a sad smile, as she gave Tori a quick look. “I tried to help her, but she doesn’t want help, just a fast buck.”

  “If you will follow me?”

  “No.” Lorali’s voice was soft and sweet. The males on either side of her tensed up.

  “I’m sorry. What did you say?” Rita asked, a look of disbelief sliding across her face.

  “I said no. We won’t follow you.”

  “You can’t want to stay here with this cheat and this swindler. She’ll take your money and provide you with a bad wedding reception. Believe me, she has nothing over what I can do.”

  “I thought she was going to take our money and disappear. At least now I know we’ll get a reception.”

  “Listen lady.” Rita’s sweet as pie veneer was fading.

  Tori sat up swinging her head from Lorali to Rita. This was better than any tennis game she ever watched. Now, if only she could figure out why Lorali hadn’t fallen for Rita’s game when so many women before her had.

  “You listen. Did you think I couldn’t hear you slide down the hallway like a snake to stop in front of this door? You pressed your ear against it to hear what I was saying and when you were sure I was actually interested in contracting Tori’s services, you doused yourself with water. I’m sure the cup is sitting beside the door. Then, you busted in here with your indignant act. I guess there is a possibility such a childish act might work with some.” Lorali’s voice held a disgusted edge to it.
