DEPTHS OF DESIRE

Prologue
Torque Koll sensed the two men behind him. Waiting, eager, naked. He understood their need. His own need to fuck raged inside him hotter than ever. The men—one a Class 1 Xylon Warrior like himself, the other simply a humanoid male—stepped closer. The sexual energy in the small quarters intensified as all three of them stared at the naked woman, waiting to be taken, atop the narrow bed.
Her body drew him unlike any other woman in his life ever had. Her skin looked like the smoothest of cream against the dark-colored bedding. Her breasts were round and full, with pearl-like nipples, begging to be sucked. The slight curve to her stomach appeared soft and womanly. The black, satiny-looking curls between her long legs made him itch to touch her all over. Inside and out.
But it wasn’t only her body. Her soul called out to him with equal power as did her light-gray eyes, which combined with her long black hair made for an eerily beautiful female. He’d never felt so possessive about a woman and didn’t know what to make of his strange reaction to her. In his life, he’d fucked far too many women to count. He’d loved none of them. Now…something stirred inside him. For her alone.
A grumble drew his attention once again to the two men shifting impatiently in the background. One man he knew. One was a stranger to him. But both were known to her and one was a good friend. He wondered how good of a friend and a rare jolt of jealousy hit him hard. He hated the idea of sharing her with them but he had to. For her sanity.
Torque stepped closer to the bed. Not very spacious for all of them. He muttered a curse under his breath. It would have to do. Few options existed here and time was a factor. Though this encounter hadn’t been planned for his pleasure, his cock stood painfully erect, needing to be inside her, fucking her hard. She wanted it too. He could see the desire in her eyes. But she wanted all of them and that knowledge aggravated the hell out of him.
Her desire should be for me only, damn it. One day it would be. He swore it.
His hand circled his steel-like cock and he slowly stroked himself. Her gaze followed each movement, as if assessing him and his worth. A smile tugged at his lips. He never worried about being seen as lacking. He had a massive cock, thick and long with just the right amount of ridges to stimulate a woman’s desire. After all his travels and experience, he knew how to fuck and make a female beg for more. She wouldn’t protest anything he wanted to do to her—anything any of them wanted to do to her. Not once the sexual fever took over.
It was the way of the rite. The way he’d lived his whole life. She was now a part of Xylon’s traditions too, whether she wanted to be or not. And he had a feeling she wanted to be more than she’d ever admit to him. Maybe more than she’d admit even to herself.
“Hurry,” she whispered in a breathy voice.
He loved the way her pupils dilated as her arousal intensified. When she dragged her moist, rosy tongue across her bottom lip, he groaned. Tease. She’d done that on purpose to plunge them all into a fucking frenzy as his brother called it. Fine by him. They would give her everything her body could take and take from her everything her body could give. Three of them were here for her but he would prove to her that no man could satisfy her as well as he.
She slid her thighs apart and dipped her slender fingers into her pussy. “What are you all waiting for?” As she pleasured herself, she purred like a contented feline—a sound that would make a man from any planet drool.
In response, his cock hardened even more, which he hadn’t thought physically possible. He might come right there without any further stimulation. That would be a first for him. Groans from the men behind him revealed that her actions had affected them too. Even so, they wouldn’t move until he did. He was the lead. And he intended to fill her pussy with a hunk of flesh a lot thicker than a finger. First though, something had been plaguing his mind and he needed an answer.
“Don’t speak,” she said, as if anticipating his intent to question her. “Just fuck me hard, until I’m sated and worn out.”
Her words definitely kept him focused on the moment. Maybe he’d finally found his sexual equal. The thought popped into his head and the possibilities of such intrigued him. He could have an exciting time with this woman and imagined many lust-filled nights with her. This particular encounter was business. But soon…
“Now.” Her order was demanding and clear. From the look in her eyes, she expected them to obey.
It took every ounce of control in him not to move forward and do just what she wanted, like some primitive creature. But he held back because he needed to know—had needed to know for a long time. He’d pressed her before about it. She had never answered him. Maybe now in her need, she would weaken her resolve if he pressed harder. “Do not,” he raised a hand when her mouth opened, “interrupt me. You will listen and you will answer me. Who are you?”
Without even a heartbeat of hesitation, she asked in return, “Does it really matter?”
He growled deep in his throat, seeing the seemingly ever-present determination in her eyes. So she wouldn’t answer, even now, even if he pushed. Frustration grabbed him, tightening every muscle in his body until he forced himself to relax.
“Well?” She raised one thin eyebrow, her gaze never leaving his face.
Was she actually challenging him? Impressive. It was a challenge he would not engage her in. Not now. Slowly he let out the heavy breath he’d been holding. “No. It doesn’t matter. Not at the moment.” At the moment, he needed to fuck. He needed to dominate. To pleasure and feel the same as he came long and hard inside her. At some point though, her identity would matter. A lot.
Her fingers delved deeper and she gasped in obvious ecstasy. As their gazes held, something passed between them—an understanding of wants and needs that went beyond words. Slowly she removed her hand from her pussy and sucked on each moist finger, one at a time. “Mmm.”
“If you continue this tease, you’ll turn all of us into nothing more than savage beasts,” he warned, slightly perturbed that she was still able to hold onto her control when he felt ready to lose his.
A slight smile graced her full lips. “Your point?”
“You won’t be able to walk after we’re through with you.” That was a promise.
“I hope that’s a promise.”
Her response startled him and it took him a moment to regroup. Damn woman. She’d read his mind. She seemed to know his every thought and anticipate his moves. He gave himself a mental shake. No. That was impossible. Simple coincidence. Nothing more. An educated guess at best. Still…
“Come closer,” she beckoned, interrupting his agitated thoughts. With lithe movements, she eased onto her knees and scooted to the edge of the mattre
ss. “All of you. The desire rages inside me like an inferno. We need to begin.”
Though she’d addressed all three of them, her eyes remained locked on him. Good. As it should be. When they stepped over to her, she looked ready to issue them a further command. She was obviously a woman used to doing so, used to being in charge. He issued his own command instead. “Take her arms and hold her down.”
“Restraint?” Her eyes widened. “That’s hardly necessary.” The surprised look on her face eased, replaced by an indulgent smile. “I do not intend to resist.”
“We will make sure of it.” He’d do whatever was necessary to save her sanity and her life, whether she liked it or not, though he didn’t expect her to protest. She’d indicated not only compliance but eagerness to be here. Rather than a show of force, the restraint was more so she wouldn’t distract them from the specific steps of the rite by any actions of her own.
The men stepped closer. They stopped short of touching her when she suddenly spoke again.
“Do not be so brutish about this.” Her pink-hued lips formed a small pout but the look in her eyes revealed a strength of character that wouldn’t be shaken. “All are equal here.”
Torque stroked his cock. “I think I’m a little more equal, in rank as well as prowess, and thus will be giving the orders.” When the other warrior grunted, Torque cut his eyes toward him.
She reached out and traced the wide head of his cock with her fingers, immediately snatching his attention back to her once more. “Yes. You are quite impressive.” Another one of those sexy little smiles he loved so much lit her face.
He stiffened but kept his fingers curled around his shaft and continued stroking himself. A distant sound distracted him. Ignore it. Her touch felt too good to allow any intrusions. “I will fuck you while they suck your tits. After you come with me inside you, we will take turns fucking your pussy, ass and mouth to sate you and to stabilize your brainwaves. We’ll use—”
“Cease the dry list of steps, warrior. Where’s the fun? You’re making it all sound so clinical.”
“Not clinical. Necessary, as was explained to you earlier. Though we’re unable to execute the rite using the established techniques and equipment, there are procedures that can still be completed so you are, at least, partially protected.” His words remained stiff. Cold even. He feared if he shared his true feelings, he’d lose control of the situation.
“Necessity isn’t sexy.”
As he looked into her eyes, his heart urged him to alter his tactics. It went against his nature, but he listened to the whispers in his head. He would give her that small victory. He softened his features and relaxed his stance, understanding that she needed to be emotionally satisfied as well as physically sated. He allowed a smile to cross his lips and a tender tone to enter his voice. “I’ll make it sexy for you. And the fun will be a bonus.”
His change in demeanor seemed to please her, for her own features softened. “Let me stoke your fire first so you are as crazed as I.” She looked at his cock with eager anticipation. As she awaited his response, her gaze rose and locked with his.
He enjoyed seeing her like this—wanting to pleasure him alone. But this sexual rite was for her, not him. “I am hard enough already to give you a shattering climax.”
“Yes, but I can turn you as needy as a feral animal. Allow me.”
His heart thudded against his ribs. Oh yeah. Her plea held merit and she didn’t seem so affected sexually yet to be beyond reason or in danger. He would very much like to see her try.
“What are your orders?” the other warrior asked, impatience obvious from the gruff tone in his voice. He and the other man still stood beside the bed but they hadn’t yet touched the woman. Their eagerness to get started was palpable.
“Give her a few minutes to do as she wishes.” Neither man issued a complaint at the order but Torque saw the displeasure and frustration in their eyes. Too fucking bad. They would wait until he said differently.
Once more, she reached out and teased the head of his cock with her fingers. “Release yourself,” she said in a tone worthy of any commander.
He supposed being in charge was ingrained in her psyche. He’d indulge the order. This time. He dropped his hand from his cock, allowing her to explore him freely.
“So thick. A true mouthful. Just what I’m craving.” She lowered her head and her tongue eased out to taste him, gently licking the clear drops of pre-cum from his flesh, one flick of her tongue at a time.
His hands clenched into fists.
She leaned down and licked the underside of his cock, starting from just below the head and continuing down the shaft. Her tongue dipped lower and flicked over his balls…once, twice.
Raw desire shot through his body and he stiffened. “Fuck! You truly might make me insane,” he forced out.
She glanced up at him. “Would you like me to put my tongue elsewhere. In your ass perhaps? I’m an expert at oral pleasures. What I can do to a man is an incredible feeling, I’m told.”
Suddenly the idea of her sexually pleasuring other men left a bad taste in his mouth. Today multiple men were necessary. Men from her past, any in her present, and those destined for her future…well, all that was about to change. He’d see to it. From here on out, she belonged to him. “You’ll do that and more.”
Switching his thoughts from what he desired to what needed to be done, he looked at the man to his right. “Tongue her cunt so the tension in her nerves is released. I will monitor the effect on her brainwaves.” He glanced down at the sensor on his wrist and made a small adjustment to the settings. Then to the warrior on the left, he said, “Spank her ass. Hard. Show her the warrior way of pleasure and pain.”
She looked up at him and chuckled.
He purposely narrowed his eyes as he stared down at her. She was laughing at them? He was not used to such a response from a woman. She held too much control. Over herself and over him. He was the one who controlled. She would soon learn. “No more teasing. You like to use your mouth and tongue? Use them. Suck my cock.”
Without warning, he grabbed the back of her head. “I’m going to come down your throat and you’re going to swallow what I give you. All of it.” He had a reputation of prowess and ejaculating massive amounts of cum. The reputation was well earned.
His cum would protect her from certain diseases and poisons and swallowing his semen would allow her to heal more quickly if injured. Normally this step was not performed first but the order of the rite was mostly tradition and switching it up would not lessen its effectiveness. As he pulled her closer, his heart beat so hard that he thought it would jump out of his chest.
“Is sucking your cock, along with swallowing your cum, an order?” she asked.
“Yes. You obviously understand a military chain of command. I am a Command Officer. You will do everything I demand of you.”
Another look of indulgence crossed her face as she looked into his eyes. “Anything you demand…and command. Of course.” She lowered her gaze and surrounded the tip of his cock with her lips.
He wasn’t sure if her words were meant to be submissive or sarcastic. At the moment, he didn’t care as long as she complied. And, oh, fucking hell! The sight of that compliance almost had him coming right then but he held back. He was too big for most women to suck properly, so when she slid her beautiful mouth over his entire cock head a little at a time, his fingers tightened in her long black hair and sweat broke out on his brow.
The other warrior held the back of her neck to make certain she didn’t stop. “A rare talent, this one,” he murmured. At the same time, his free hand connected with her ass. Over and over again he spanked her, the sounds of the hard smacks echoed in the room.
“Mmm, mmm.” She squirmed while her ass slowly turned a deep shade of pink.
Her submissiveness, being at their sexual mercy, intensified Torque’s need and pleasure. “Yeah, use your tongue, baby.” He looked at the third man. “You too. Make her squirm
even more.”
The man nodded and moved onto the bed. He slid underneath her and gripped her hips. “She’s moving too much. Stop smacking her ass.”
The warrior spanking her lowered his hand. “Fine. Her skin is too fair to take much more anyway. I’ll finger-fuck her asshole while you lick her cunt. Is she wet?”
“Practically dripping.”
“Good. Let’s see how many times we can make this bitch come.”
“Hey!” Torque grabbed the man’s arm and his temperature spiked. “Speak about her respectfully or leave us now.”
“This is a fuck fest, Torque. I’ve heard you say worse to initiates. Ease up. She knows I mean no disrespect.”
“This is an ancient rite,” he countered sternly. “You will treat it as such.”
The warrior glared at him and looked ready to toss back another smart remark but apparently changed his mind for his mouth tightened and he remained silent. He pulled away and nodded, then he raised a finger to his lips and moistened it thoroughly. His gaze never wavered though, in apparently as much of a challenge as he was prepared to offer at the moment.
The man’s displeasure was obvious and Torque almost relished a fight to show the warrior his place. Now was not the time however. As much as it irritated the shit out of him, he broke eye contact before the situation escalated. He’d modified his behavior almost too much lately and wondered at the cause.
Am I getting soft?
After a heartbeat, he knew the answer. Fuck no. He’d beat any male senseless who came up against him…or this woman, if pushed to it. But he was smart enough to know that now was not the time or place. He’d deal with the insubordination later if needed. Right now, more important issues had to be handled and finalized. He watched in silence as the warrior worked his thick finger into her asshole.
She glanced up at him and he swore he saw a smile in her eyes before she looked back down. As she continued to suck him, she moaned around his cock and wiggled her butt.
