“I’m going to release,” he said.
“I’m going to release,” I said in response. Then Cylo groaned and moaned loudly as he released inside of me. His warmth flooded through me as my body released in climax to greet his. “Oh god! Oh god!” I shouted as I felt my whole body go limp. I rested my head on my arm as Cylo stayed inside of me. He moved in and out of me slowly as he groaned and twitched behind me. We were both breathing hard and enjoying the vibrations that flowed through us.
Finally, he pulled his cock from me and grabbed my waist and hoisted me up. He sat back on his knees and draped me across his lap. “Are you all right? Did I hurt you? You are so small and delicate,” he whispered.
“No, I am fine. I am very, very good actually. You did not hurt me,” I said with a smile.
“Good, good,” he said as he was trying to catch his breath. I pressed my head against his chest, and he cradled me in his arms, and all I could think was, this was supposed to happen. This was always meant to be. It felt too good to be wrong for us.
I nestled my head in his neck and relaxed. We were silent for a long time as we sat there naked with him cradling me in front of the fire. Then finally he spoke. I thought his words would be what I wanted to hear. I thought he would tell me that he wanted to keep me. I thought he would tell me that he would either defy his father and brother and take me back to Kelon, or that we would just stay here on this odd planet with deadly creatures. But that was not what he said.
“I should get more wood for the fire. You should get dressed. You need to get some rest. We have a long journey tomorrow. I don’t know what we will find in this strange village,” he said as he pushed me off of him.
“Oh, okay,” I said as I got to my feet and moved over to my clothes. I got dressed and then helped him to find more wood. The fire was strong, and then I laid down in the moss again.
“Are you not going to sleep?” I asked.
“No. I am fine. I do not need as much sleep as the humans do,” he said. “You sleep and I will keep watch.”
“I see; okay,” I said, hoping that he would spoon me to sleep. But I guess I was expecting too much from a dragon.
CHAPTER TEN
CYLO HYDROS
I was right, damn it. I was right about what it would be like to be with Melody. It was the best I had ever experienced, and now that I had experienced it, I did not want to let her go. But that was selfish, and I could not let my feelings jeopardize everything. It was important that she went back. She probably had the entire planet of Earth searching for her. I needed to take her back. My mind knew that. But my body wanted to keep her and stay inside of her forever. So when light finally came, I did not linger. We needed to get going. Otherwise I would want to take her again like a savage, and then I would never be able to let her go.
“Wake up, Melody,” I said to her. She sleepily awoke. She rolled over on the moss.
“It is morning?” she asked.
“Yes, see, the sun comes now over the horizon,” I said as I pointed out toward the sun that was peaking up and lighting the sky.
“We should be going soon. I can fly us toward the west to a village, but I cannot carry this box of gold and you in my arms at the same time. I need to make a pouch of some sort,” I said looking around.
“I guess we can use my dress. It doesn’t cover much anyway,” she said.
“Yes, I suppose that is right,” I laughed at the sheer dress she wore over the loincloths.
“Here, have some water,” I said handing her a hollowed out rock with water in it.
“Where did you get this? Please tell me you did not go down to the lake again?” she asked in a tone.
“No. There is water seeping from the rocks behind us just through there. That is why there is moss here. Where there is moss, there is water,” I said with a wink.
“Oh, right,” she said as she drank the water. Then she stood up and pulled the dress off of her and threw it at me. I moaned. I wanted to take her right then and there. I sighed away the desire and began to fill, fold, and tie the dress into a shoulder-draped pouch that I could wear.
Minutes later the sun was fully up, and I picked Melody up into my arms and flew west. I was one step closer to getting back on track with my mission to get her home back to Earth. But there was a difference now. Now that I had been inside of her, I did not want to let her go.
The village was a trading post, fortunately. It was called Pacu, and we discovered that we were on the planet known as Tiok. I had never heard of it before. The village was a vast market, and we were easily able to buy food and clothes and a small ship. In no time we were back on track.
“What is the plan?” she asked sadly, sitting next to me in the ship.
“The same as when I arrived. I will park this ship. It has an invincibility shield like my shield, but it is not a submersible one like our ships. So I will have to park it on land somewhere in the woods. Then get you to a safe space and then I will leave. We will go on living as though nothing ever happened,” I said.
“I don’t know if I can do that,” she said.
“Do what? The plan? You will do fine,” I said to her.
“I mean going on living like nothing ever happened. This has been absolutely unbelievable for me. It has been a real adventure. Thank you, Cylo,” she said to me. She was sad, and her sadness made me want to reach out to her. But instead I went on with the mission.
“I’m going to put the ship in hyper speed and we will be back on Earth in a few hours. Get some rest if you want. You have a lot of responsibilities when you get back to Earth,” I said.
“I am not sleepy,” she said.
“You don’t have to sleep. Maybe just lie down in the back,” I said. What I was really doing was trying to get her out of my proximity. With her this close, it was all that I could do to restrain myself and not push her against the wall and take her. I could still remember the way she tasted on my mouth.
“Fine. I’ll go lay down as you wish, my prince,” she said angrily as she unbuckled her seat belts. She stood up and then stopped. She did not turn to me as she spoke.
“Why did you do that last night?” she asked.
“Do what exactly?” I asked as the myriad of things I had done to her came to my mind and made my body start to respond to her.
“You did the mind thing, your little mind power thing that you have. You would tell me to say something, something very filthy,” she asked.
I laughed a little. She was right; I had done that, “Because it was fun. It was sexy,” I said.
“Well I would have said it even if you weren’t controlling my mind,” she said as she walked away.
Shit. She just turned me on with that statement. Now all I could think about was her repeating my filthy words. I shifted in my seat trying to make room for my cock that was quickly growing hard. “Fuck, Cylo. Not now. Don’t think about it,” I whispered to myself.
I was on the way to take her back to Earth and then to never see her again. If I allowed myself to keep fantasizing about taking her, then the desire would be out of control. I forced myself. I stood up from the seat. I took a step toward her. I’d had enough. I was going to take her right then and there.
But then I remembered the attack on the ship. They could still be out there, and they could find out exactly what ship I’d bought at the village. I turned back around and sat in my seat and kept an eye out and my guard up. I couldn’t risk our lives again. So I was the responsible pilot. When I did go check on her, she was sleeping. I allowed her to sleep. She’d had a crazy time since I took her from Earth and needed some rest. I wished that I had never taken her in the first place; at least then I would never have met her and I wouldn’t know what I was missing.
Hours later, we were landing with an invisible shield in place in the middle of something Melody called a vineyard. There were rows and rows of high vines shielding us from the buildings half a mile away on a hill.
“This is good. I can walk
to those buildings. It will be a winery and it is a public place. I am safe walking through these vineyards. Who knows? I might even run into a tour,” she laughed sadly.
I stared at her as she leaned against the wall of the ship. I had shut down the engines, and we were now sitting in a silent ship. I looked at her for a long time. I did not want to let her go, but I had too.
“Remember the promise you made. You will speak about us Draqua and Kelon to no one,” I said trying to give orders.
“You don’t need to remind me. I would never expose you,” she said. Then we were quiet again. She looked at me and said, “So that’s it then? This is the end? You’re not going to promise to come back for me at some time? You are not going to change your mind and take off right now and take me with you?” Her bottom lip trembled.
“No, I can’t do any of those things. I can’t come back for you. Then it will be the same mess all over again. You are too important here on Earth. I can’t change my mind. I will need to find another,” I said. I knew it would hurt her, but I had too. It was the only way that she was going to let me go.
“What do you mean find another?” she asked. I knew that she would pick up on that.
“I am a prince. I need to produce offspring. I will need to eventually find a mate that can provide that,” I said to her as stoicly as I could.
“I see. Of course. That would be expected. I guess I just did not really think that far ahead,” she said. “I guess I should go now.”
“Yes,” I said as I moved toward the door. Then I stopped. “We have to say goodbye. We have to do this. It is the best for both of our planets,” I said.
“If this is goodbye, then let us not use words,” she said as she pressed her body against mine. She put her arms around my neck and pulled herself up to me. She pressed her mouth against mine and kissed me hard. That was it. It was all that I could take. I opened my mouth and slipped my tongue into her mouth. I picked her up and cupped her bottom in my hands. “Oh, Melody… fuck…” I whispered as she wrapped her legs around me.
I pressed her against the wall. She greedily moved her hands up and down my body. “Take me, take me one last time,” she said to me. I pushed her dress up to her waist. I pulled my cock out of my loincloth. I pushed the tip of my cock inside of her. We both moaned in satisfaction from the elation of being together again. “Yes, yes,” she whispered. Then I pushed deep inside of her. She yelled out in passion. I groaned and grunted like a wild Draqua. I moved fast and hard pounding her. I was moving quickly. It was hot and messy. “Yes, yes,” she said. “I’m going to cum,” she continued.
“Good; I want you too. I want you to cum while I’m inside of you,” I whispered in her ear. She pressed her fingers into my flesh and let out a scream as she released. I moved faster in short movements in and out of her then I released. “Oh fuck, oh fuck, Melody, I’m cumming.”
I collapsed against her body breathing in her scent. The vibrations rocked through me. She was exceptional. This was a goodbye that I would never forget. She held onto me and squeezed me tightly. Then she began to cry.
“Don’t cry. Please don’t cry. Please don’t do that,” I whispered as I looked into her eyes.
“You’re right. I’m sorry. I think all of this, the whole thing is just really getting to me finally. I should go now,” she said.
I pulled myself out of her and set her on the ground. She moved to the washing room and ran the water. I moved to the windshield to make sure we were still alone. The area was clear. Melody came out of the back of the ship.
“Goodbye, Cylo. Thank you for the adventure. I will never ever forget it,” she said.
I pulled her to me and kissed her. Then I walked her to the door. I opened it and helped her out. “Are you sure this is the place?” I asked her.
She looked at the building. “Yes, it is good. I will be safe here. They will help me,” she said. “Go now before someone sees you. I could not bare it if I was the reason you got caught here. They would do horrible things to you and experiment on you. You need to go.”
I quickly boarded the ship and closed the door, but I did not leave. I watched as she walked down the vine rows, making her way to the building. When she arrived there, two women ran out and greeted her. They hugged her and carefully helped her walk inside. She turned her head back, looking in my direction. Though I know that she could not see the ship, she knew I was still there.
Once the group was inside of the building, I started the engines and then slowly and carefully moved into the air. The ship shot straight out of Earth’s atmosphere and out into space. I had done it. I had left the human female that I loved on Earth. It stung like hell, and the ride back to my planet of Kelon was complete torture. I tried not to think of her every second, but the ship smelled like her. The bunk in the back of the ship where she had slept smelled like her, and I could not stop thinking of her every time I inhaled it. I made double light speed on the trip back to Kelon simply to get there as fast as I could and have a distraction. Figuring out who shot us down would be a good distraction, and it was one that I could not wait to get started on.
“You did right, my son,” my father said as I reported to him as soon as I landed on Kelon.
“Thank you, father,” I said.
“You had to return that female even if she is the one you want to mate with. She is too much of an important person on Earth. What you did was for the good of the Draqua. You will see that in time. We cannot have the humans knowing about us at this time.”
“Yes, I do see that, father,” I said as I stood there.
“But why did you show up in a different ship, son? Was there a problem?” he asked as he handed me a glass of lana juice in celebration of my successful mission.
“We were shot down,” I said.
“What?! Why did you not say this first? Why did you not report it as soon as it happened over transmissions?” my father said panicked.
“The shot knocked out my communications on the ship. It was as if the shooter was going after it on purpose. As though the shooter knew exactly where it was on my ship. I could not send a transmission before we crashed. Once I found a ship to continue my journey, I found it best not to send a transmission. If the shooter was still out there, they could intercept the message and come after me again. I thought it was best the shooter and whoever the shooter is working with thought I was dead.”
“That is wise, son. I should have never let you go without an escort. Who could have known that you were on a mission? It was only decided the night before that you were leaving. That is not enough time for the information to travel to our enemies on other planets,” my father said.
“Yes, I thought the same thing, father. That is why I think this shooter was not from another planet. I think it was a Draqua,” I said.
“What?! A Draqua shooting at our own prince?” he said.
“Yes. I was so convinced of it that I almost thought I would return to a civil war in progress,” I said shooting down the lana juice.
“Do you mean you think it was the opposition?” he asked.” No, they are not a violate group. They only like to argue their point, and that is all.”
“No, I don’t think that, father. I think the group has evolved to violence. You don’t see the contempt that is thrown upon me by those in the opposition parties. They look at me with hate in their eyes, and hatred leads to violence.”
“No, that can’t be,” he said in denial.
“Think about it. What better way to get the message across that Draqua should not be mating with humans and that hybrids should not be in the Draqua race? Shooting down a hybrid that has a human mate is the perfect way to mark all those items off the list in one shot. It makes a massive statement. Not to mention the hybrid is the prince. It goes to show that the opposition is going against the crown. It has all the markings of starting a civil war,” I said.
“It is possible that you are right. I will keep an extra eye out and send my eyes and ears out into
the village to gather information for me,” he said as he gave me a big hug. “I am happy that you are safe. I do not want to lose you, son. Because of that and this danger that you have come across, I am going to appoint a personal guard to you,” he said. “Guards!”
“No, father, that is not necessary,” I said.
“Yes, it is very necessary. Someone shot you down, and you believe it is a Draqua; that is enough to know that they will not stop there. They will fly to your window and kill you in your sleep,” he said.
Two guards entered the chambers. I gestured for them to leave, “It was a mistake. Please carry on,” I said. They walked out the door and closed it behind them.
“Look, father, if you want me to have guards then at least let me use those that I trust. I will get Baca and Jix to guard me,” I said.
