Alien Romance Box Set: The Euthenian Battle Complete Series (Books 1-4): A SciFi (Science Fiction) Alien Warrior Romance

by Ashley L. Hunt

  “My mother is alive, Kataline. I am much better than okay,” he says then pulls her to him and she lets my hand go to hug him. “My mother is alive!”

  His voice is loud and the others hear him. Nar shouts, “What?”

  Kerr lets Kataline out of his arms and looks at them all. “The Queen in alive and at the palace!”

  Nar breaks into a run. “My sister is alive!”

  She starts the rest of the people running towards the palace. Kerr, Kataline, Caleb, and I stand still, letting them all go ahead of us. “No wonder she wanted me dead.”

  Kataline touches my hand. “I showed her what would’ve happened if she didn’t call this off. It helped her to see things in a better light. Come, let’s go to the palace and begin this new journey, King.”

  “I may not be King long,” I say as we begin to walk down the road to the capital city.

  Kerr places his arm around my shoulders. “Father, no matter what, you will always have a place in my heart. I have no idea what to do about what you tried to have done. But I am thankful the people you tried to do wrong to have been saved.”

  I nod. “Me too, Son. You have no idea of the weight that lifted off my shoulders when I heard the words.”

  Caleb clears his throat. “I do have to say, I think it’s best if we take the King in some side entrance and straight to his chambers, which have been moved by the way. The Queen took your bedroom.”

  “As it should be. I will step down on my own,” I say. “If allowed to live, I will leave the palace. It’s the right thing to do after all.”

  “We will see, Father. Give us time to make good decisions about that,” Kerr says as he runs his arm around Kataline’s shoulders and kisses the side of her head.

  That act would have incensed me just a few weeks ago, but now I find it endearing.

  As we make our way up the street to the palace we find the mass of people standing in front. Just in front of the entrance is my wife and my heart stops beating.

  “There she is.”

  Kerr sighs. “Mother.”

  Caleb looks back at me. “Just try to remain calm, Sire. I’ll stay between you two so she doesn’t pull anything.”

  Kataline says, “I have a shield around him. She can’t hurt him.”

  “Thank you, Kataline.”

  My heart is thumping so hard in my chest I know all must hear it. Caleb eases us through the crowd and Nar runs up and hugs her sister.

  I hang back as Glee lets Nar go with tearful eyes and looks at Kerr then takes him up in her long and elegant arms. “Son.”

  Kerr manages to choke out, “Mother, I have missed you.”

  She kisses his cheek and I try to stay behind Caleb regardless of the shield Kataline has around me. I cannot look my wife in her blue eyes.

  Then her words fall upon my ears and I have to look at her. “Come to me, Hexultan.”

  I do as she says and kneel before her without looking up. “Yes, Your Majesty.”

  “Rise and look your wife in her eyes,” she commands me.

  I do as she says and find mine filling with tears. “Yes, Your Majesty.”

  With one simple word, she hurts me far worse than the sharp tip of any sword, “Why?”

  I shake my head and a sob comes from me. “I wish I knew. I wish I understood why I did such a horrible thing to the woman I love. For I still love you, Glee. With everything in me. I love you.”

  “I wanted nothing more than to see you dead, Hexultan.” She turns away from me.

  I fall to my knees again. “Take my life, Glee. I deserve it.”

  I feel a hand on my shoulder and look back to see Kataline. “Will you please rise, Sire?”

  Her hand moves to take mine into it then she takes Glee’s hand and looks at her. “Do you desire his death any longer, Your Majesty? For I can take his life now. If that is what you still wish for.”

  I steady myself, preparing to take what I have coming to me. Glee’s voice is calm as she says, “Hexultan, I have seen your death. I thought it would fill me with something. Anything that would end the pain and void I’ve been filled with since the day the masked man took me at your request.”

  “I understand, Glee. I accept my fate.”

  “You don’t seem to understand, Hex. It did nothing to ease my pain. And furthermore, it added to it. Your death is not a thing I want any longer. For I have done a bit of soul searching and I know my treatment of you spurred what you did. None know of that. None know of how cold I treated you for many, many years after our son’s death.”

  I look at her and ask, “If you don’t want my death, what is it you do want?”

  “Step down as King. Move out of the palace and leave me alone.”

  “I will do as you wish, My Queen,” I tell her and have to admit this hurts far worse than death.

  Death would’ve ended my agony. Now it will last much longer. Kerr’s arm runs around my shoulders. “Come, Father. For tonight, you can stay here.”

  I walk away with my son in this bittersweet moment in time and know it could’ve all ended right there, right that moment. But for some reason it didn’t and I make a vow to do more than I ever did as the king.

  Today starts a new chapter in my life!

  CHAPTER 6

  Kerr

  Though things are nowhere near normal around here with all the changes we’ve made since we returned, they are better. It’s been a year since things changed.

  My father lives in a nice home in the Earth settlement. After a test to find if he did have any other type of blood running through him it was found he does have the blood of an Earthling.

  He decided with his new life he’d embrace the other half of him. It seems to be working out fine. He lives a much simpler life than he did at the Palace as the King. But he seems to enjoy it.

  Mother is still the Queen though she’s stepped back, and it is I and Kataline who rule now. She’s told us her mind isn’t what it used to be, and she fears she’d make mistakes which would affect many people.

  She spends most of her time playing with our baby, Rosemay.

  As a matter of fact, she’s playing with her now and I’m about to surprise my wife in the shower. Steam fills the small cleansing room as I sneak in.

  She’s singing away like she usually does when she thinks herself alone. I’ve already stripped and pull the door open and slip inside the small cubicle.

  Her eyes are closed as she rinses her hair out and when my hands touch her waist she nearly hits me as her singing turns into screaming.

  Her little hands pound my chest. “Kerr!”

  I hold her close to me and kiss the tip of her nose. “Mother’s playing with the baby so I thought I’d come play with you.”

  You did, did you?” Kataline runs her arms around my neck. “Perhaps I’m not in the mood to play, Kerr.”

  “I can fix that.” My lips touch hers and they part and bid my tongue to enter.

  Our tongues dance together as I rock her in my arms. Her legs wrap around me and I take her out of the shower and to the dryer. The warm air which shoots up from the floor dries us then I make my way to our bed.

  Laying her back on the bed, I release her and look down at her. Trailing my fingers over her flat stomach I smile and say, “You know we found that beautiful planet with all the snow last month. That ice cave was really gorgeous.”

  “And cold,” she says with a smile. “And the answer is no, Kerr. I want to wait a couple of years before we have another baby.”

  “A couple of years?” I pout. “That long?”

  She nods. “Now come here, Romeo. We can practice anyway.”

  I climb on the bed, moving my body over hers as her hands run over my biceps. “You like the guns, huh?”

  “I love them,” she says then grazes her lips over the left one.

  My mouth finds one of her plump mounds and I take it all in. Licking the nipple and sucking at it. Making her groan and draw her legs up to bend her knees.

 
; The way her hands run over my back sends waves of heat through me. Her body beneath mine arches up, inviting me inside.

  I move up to watch her as I press my hard cock into her and the way her face goes into such a euphoric expression lets me know she still wants me.

  “You fill me completely, Kerr.”

  I kiss her long neck all the way up to her ear. “That’s how it’s supposed to be, Kataline.”

  Making long, slow strokes, I nip at her earlobe and caress her arms as I move in and out of her. Her body moves with mine, arching and retreating at exactly the right times.

  The way her breathing sounds has me getting more excited as it becomes deeper and faster. Her legs begin to shake as she makes this moaning screaming sound she makes sometimes.

  I pound her as she climaxes and rakes her nails over my back. Then I pull out and flip her over to her knees and yank her back and fill her again.

  This never fails to keep her orgasm going. She keeps up the moaning and drops her face to the bed to stifle the loud cries she’s making.

  Her body is clenching and pulling at my dick and I can barely hold back. I watch as her hands fist the sheets and she’s writhing and groaning and making it impossible for me not to come.

  With a loud groan, I join her in the ecstasy and find my release. I stay still until our bodies are done then I lie her down and take the place next to her.

  Pulling her back to me so I can cuddle her, I whisper, “I love you, Baby.”

  She turns in my arms and looks at me as she runs her hand over my cheek. “I love you, Kerr. I always will.”

  A soft kiss I leave on her lips. And we fall asleep. Safe in the palace where all is finally well.

  Caleb

  Emerald’s long blonde locks fall around her face as she rocks our daughter to sleep. Stacy is three months old and the light of both her mother’s and father’s eyes.

  “She’s sound asleep, Love. Let me put her in her crib,” I say and take the sleeping baby from her arms.

  Then I go back and scoop my wife out of the chair and take her to our bed. “Now it’s time for me to rock you to sleep.”

  She giggles and kisses me. We live in the palace now as the Duke and Duchess. It’s not quite the existence I pictured, but it’s a damn bit more comfortable than the simple home at the settlement.

  I lay her on our soft bed and unbutton her dress. Her blue eyes roam over me as her hands run through my hair. “I am a lucky woman you found me, Caleb.”

  “I am a lucky man for finding you, my love.” I push the dress from her shoulders and pull it off her.

  Then I drop my pajama bottoms and climb onto the bed. Her soft body beckons me to run my hands all over it. She wiggles as my fingers flow over her ribs.

  I look up at her to find her bottom lip pulled between her teeth. And then I can’t wait any longer and take her mouth in a kiss that tells her how much I need and want her.

  Her moan as our tongues intertwine has me aching to be inside her. But I hold myself back and move my mouth from hers. Trailing kisses down her neck and over her chest. I stop and take a breast into my mouth.

  Her hands run through my hair and I leave her breast and kiss down her stomach and then her breath is taken in sharply as my lips touch her intimate area.

  “Caleb,” she moans my name, and it sends a heat through me. Her body arches up for me to take her in deeper.

  I grip her ass and pull her up to gain better access to her delicious gift. Running my tongue up and down her folds, I tap it to her clit with each stroke.

  Her legs are moving as she’s obviously loving every lick, every suck, and every kiss. With nearly continuous moans and groans, she starts shaking. “Caleb! Yes!”

  Moving my mouth to taste the sweet release she’s given me, I press my tongue in to find the hot juices. Then I quickly move up her body and press my aching cock into her pulsing depths.

  I join her in moaning now. Her hot body squeezes my hard dick as it slows the orgasm and with the last little movement, I begin my strokes. Hard and deep I make them into her hot wetness.

  Her hands run over my back and she grips it tight, holding me tightly to her. The way her soft breasts smash under my hard chest is like Heaven to me.

  Her long nails trail lightly over my skin then she makes a bit harder trails. Our bodies move as one to reach the place we want to go.

  The smacking of flesh against flesh fill the room along with gasping breaths. Little moans here and there mark the only change in sounds.

  “Oh, Baby,” I whisper as I feel it starting. “Oh, Baby.”

  She starts to fall apart. “Caleb! Caleb!”

  With her body contracting all over my cock I can’t hold back any longer and give it all up to her. Our loud moans as our bodies move together to the best place in the world combine to form one of the best sounds my ears have ever heard.

  One kiss to her sweet cheek I give her. “Emerald, you make me happy every single day.”

  Her fingers trail over my flesh now supercharged by the climax. “Caleb, you are my hero and always will be.”

  I roll over and pull her to lie on top of me. “Sleep now, Love.”

  Our new lives are better than I ever imagined they’d be.

  CHAPTER 7

  Kataline

  “Look at me Grampa, I’m doing it! I’m flying the kite!” Our oldest daughter, Rosemay shouts out to Kerr’s father.

  It’s her birthday today. She’s seven, and we all came out to Hexultan’s place in the Earth settlement to celebrate the day. He built her a pond with ducks and swans on it. My father sent them from Earth on the last shipment from Earth to the settlement.

  Gleeu and our four-year-old son, Kerry, throw bread crumbs to them as they sit by the water’s edge. Every now and again I catch her looking at her husband.

  He’s lived apart from her at her request. Hexultan has made amends for his poor behavior. His brother enjoys the bedroom at the palace which the King’s things were moved to. Hexultan left all of his belongings to his brother, Xavultan.

  Hex started from scratch, first living in the shack Caleb had built for his wife. It was a hideous little thing. But Hex used his ingenuity and what he calls his Earthling spirit to make a new life for himself.

  He farms the land, by himself. And as a peace offering, I suppose, he sends bunches of the freshest and best looking vegetables to the palace each and every day. Along with a bouquet of wild flowers to place on the table each day.

  The flowers never fail to bring a smile to the Queen’s face. The vegetables bring a smile to mine.

  I sit on the blanket on the purple grass under a large red tree at the edge of the forest where Hex’s house is built. Leaning back on Kerr, as he leans on the massive tree’s trunk, he rubs my stomach swollen with our third child. Another boy for Kerry to play with as Rosemay is much too girly to play with him.

  “Look,” I say as I gesture at his father walking towards Gleeu. “He’s acting as if he doesn’t even realize she’s sitting there.”

  “I see that.” Kerr plays with my hair and I look back to see him taking a sniff of it.

  I giggle. “Look now. He’s saying something to Kerry.”

  I hear his father say, “The black swan is a male, and the white is a female. Tell me Kerry, which color swans will they make for us?”

  “Probably, gray ones, Grandpa. Cause when I mix white and black paints it makes gray.” Kerry tosses some more bits of bread to the birds.

  Hex laughs and so does Gleeu. Their eyes meet and then she looks away quickly.

  Hex kneels down beside our three-year-old. “Do you like the vegetables Grandpa sends to you, Son?”

  “I do. I like the yellow stuff the best of all,” he says then his arms wrap around Hex’s neck. “Thanks for that, Grandpa.”

  “You’re welcome, big boy. You about ready to become a big brother?”

  Kerry’s head bobs, sending his shoulder-length blonde curls swaying over his shoulders. “I am ready to be
a big brother. And did Mom and Dad tell you what they let me name him?”

  Hex shakes his head. “No, they have not.”

  “I named him after you Grandpa. We’re calling him Hex, just like your name. On account of, I love you.” Kerry spins to look at Gleeu. “Don’t worry, Grandma, I love you too and Daddy let me get a puppy-fish yesterday and guess what I named her?”

  Gleeu smiles. “Let me guess. Gleeu.”
