Fiery Match

by Tierney O’Malley

  “No. I don’t know what theirs says.”

  “What?”

  “It is a secret our mother had whispered in our ears when we were born. Only the woman we are to spend our lives with would know about it.”

  “Oh, Cor. That is so romantic. But you’re talking about spending our lives like husband and wife. Cor, we’ve just met.”

  “Yes. But I’ve searched for you for years. Now, I’ve found you.” Cor laced their fingers together. “Baby, only my match could have this mark.”

  “And you think I can have it, too?”

  “Yes.”

  “How?”

  “When we make love.”

  “Oh, dear.”

  Nikka stared at their hands. It was hard to believe she was actually touching him. She’d dreamed about this so many times and wondered what it would be like to be kissed by him. It was heaven. Interestingly, she didn’t care whether he was human or an alien, green or white. She liked him a lot, but there were so many things she needed to know about him.

  “Nikka—”

  “Why are you here on Earth?”

  “Just like my brothers, our father sent me here—to help stop the Rhynians from total extinction.”

  “Extinction?” Nikka frowned. She could kinda tell where this story was going. “And the flour-faced aliens want to stop you from succeeding.”

  “Right.”

  “Am I right to assume they are responsible on why the Rhynians are on the brink of extinction.”

  Cor’s expression stilled and grew serious. Contempt was evident on his handsome face. “They attacked our planet and killed most of us. Especially the children and women.”

  “Oh, my God.”

  “They’d tried to wipe us out, but we fought back. Still we suffered an unimaginable loss. The children and women…they were the Orkinians targets.”

  Nikka couldn’t imagine their loss. She had lost her parents from a car accident when she was just fifteen. She wouldn’t want anyone to go through that. But Cor…to lose his entire race. “I’m sorry. Why would they do that?”

  “They lack sunshine. They have more days of darkness than light.”

  “Is that why the Orkinians that attacked us looked so pale?”

  “That and they’re naturally born ugly.”

  Nikka smiled. With her free hand, she reached up and combed back Cor’s silky hair. She loved that the ends curled a bit. So sexy. She sighed. Somehow she already knew the answer to her question, but she asked anyway. “The one Orkian. He said he’s going to kill me.”

  “No one’s going to kill you. Not while I’m alive, baby.”

  “Good to know. I can’t imagine getting killed by someone I can’t even pronounce the name. Cor, they know why you’re here on earth, right? And the one who trashed my shop thinks that you found your match, did he?”

  Cor nodded. “I’m sorry, love. I didn’t mean to put you in danger, but showing you my power was my only hope to make you believe me. I didn’t want to go back across the street, sit on the chair, and watch you from there. So I did what I thought would help me. It was a selfish act.”

  “We survived. It’s okay.”

  “It was my father and the council leaders’ idea that we come here. We studied Earth and its people. There was no better place than here to find our mate. They were right to send us here. Kyr found Jade and now I found you.”

  “You really believe that I’m your match.”

  “You are my match. I wouldn’t turn green if you weren’t.” Cor spread Nikka’s legs and stood in between, running his hands up along the length of her thighs. “I need your help, at’vi.”

  “To breed. To have your babies.”

  Cor winced. “The way you said it, didn’t sound right, but there is no other way to say it. Baby, I wouldn’t force you to do anything if it is against your will.”

  “What would you do then if I say no?”

  “First, I’ll try to convince you to go out with me, pursue you romantically until you fall head over heels in love with me. Not just half in love. If, after all that, you still refuse me, then I’ll go back to Rhyn.”

  “You won’t look for another woman?”

  “No. Not after finding you.” Cor’s hands made it inside her shirt, gently kneading her sides.

  “Why do you have to go back to Rhyn if there is fighting going on? Can’t you just stay here with your match?”

  “We are supposed to go back. Report to my father and tell him about you.”

  Nikka felt Cor’s hands on her back seconds before her bra loosened. He unhooked her. Oh, dear. “So, say I agreed to be your match. We got pregnant. You’re just going to leave me?”

  “But I’ll be back, love. I’ll be your husband in every sense.” His mouth covered hers the same time he cupped her breasts.

  Nikka lost her train of thoughts.

  Cor’s mouth was warm and tasted like mint of something uniquely him. Each time he opened his mouth to meet with hers, she could feel his tongue darting in and out. Although she could tell that he was seething with desire to make love with her, his kiss was slow, gentle, and easy as if he was testing her mouth. Oh, God. He was driving her crazy. She wanted his deep kiss, for him to plunge his tongue inside her mouth, but he continued to give her his short erotic kisses that quickly warmed her up. Lord, did they have a School of Making Out on Rhyn?

  Honestly, he could kiss!

  Cor left her mouth to kiss her chin, jaw and neck while his hands kneaded her breasts gently. Then he lifted her shirt over her head. She sat on the stool, breathing hard, watching Cor for his next move.

  Slowly, Cor lowered her straps until they, too, joined her shirt on the floor.

  “Beautiful.”

  When he crouched down to lick the beginning of her cleavage, she became more excited. He licked, nibbled, and sucked the base of her breast and around it. Staying away from her nipple. Oh, she wanted him to suck her hard.

  Just as she thought she’d die from waiting, Cor clamped his mouth around her nipple and then began to suckle.

  Nikka whimpered from ecstasy.

  Cor made love with her nipple while his other hand massaged her breast. “Hmm…fucking good.” He let go of Nikka’s nipple only to capture the other one.

  Nikka arched her back, offering more of her flesh while she gripped Cor’s hair with her hands. “Cor…”

  Cor’s mouth was hot against her skin. Too hot in fact that she broke a sweat. Then Cor’s mouth was back on her lips.

  “Nikka, I have to taste you. Say yes. Please.”

  “Yes.” Oh, God. She was a slut, but she could not deny him. It would be like stopping the world from spinning.

  Cor’s hands went to the front of her jeans and unbuttoned her in a hurry. Before Nikka could take a deep breath, he had already tossed her jeans to the floor, leaving her in her thong.

  “Damn. I knew you had a great body.” He ran his hands on her thighs, creating erotic friction between them.

  “Thank you,” Nikka said, her face hot from his perusal.

  Looking at her, Cor cupped her left heel and then rested it on the next stool. Nikka felt so open, exposed, and horny. Her breathing became shallow and fast. “Cor…”

  “It’s okay, baby. You’re beautiful.” He pressed his thumb on her pussy through her thong. “Smells heavenly like a garden of flowers.” His thumb teased her clit. “And so fucking wet.”

  “Oh, God.”

  “You’re wet. And I’m sure tastes good, too.”

  Anticipation for his next move, made Nikka’s temperature reach boiling point. She gripped the edge of the counter and kept her gaze on Cor. He was looking at her pussy with a tight face. She could tell he was as excited as she was. When he hooked his fingers on her waistband, she panicked. He said he’d taste her. No one had ever done that to her before. Not even Richard. No. Richard mounted her like a rabid horse, not minding that she was a virgin and writhing in p
ain.

  Cor must have noticed the changed in her body.

  “Nikka? What’s wrong? You want me to stop?”

  “No. No. It’s just no man or alien had ever paid this much attention to my, uhm, there.”

  “You’re a virgin?”

  “No. I had sex only one time. But not like this.”

  Cor’s face turned hard. “The man hurt you.”

  “Yes. But he’s long gone.”

  “I’ll kill him,” he said matter of factly.

  “No. Don’t. He doesn’t deserve your attention. He’s a scum.”

  “Baby, I’ll never hurt you. I’ll give you pleasure, not pain.”

  “I know.”

  Cor’s fingers began to move again. He pulled her thong slowly as if waiting for her to change her mind. “Glad to hear I’m the first to fuck you with my mouth.”

  Lord. His words should douse the fire inside her, but instead, they only aroused her even more—if that was even possible.

  Grinning, he moved her right leg aside, opening her even wider. “You’re weeping,” he said and then lowered his mouth to fasten on her pussy.

  Nikka thought she’d died and had gone to heaven. His mouth on her hot throbbing pussy was bliss.

  Cor licked her with his flat tongue like a cat licking his paw. Using his magnificent thumbs, he opened her pussy, bringing her clit out as if he was opening a flower, and then he traced her seams with the tip of his tongue.

  “Oh, yeah. Mine.” With his hooded eyes, he looked up at Nikka. “Watch, baby. I want you to watch.”

  Then he closed his mouth on her clit.

  Nikka moaned lustily. She buried her fingers in his hair while he sucked her clit. Quickly, her body screamed for release. “Cor, don’t stop. Don’t stop. Oh, God. Yes,” she pleaded while continuing to watch.

  But when she was a breath away from reaching her peak, Cor released her clit.

  “Not, yet.” His mouth inched down until he covered her opening. With his tongue, he penetrated her.

  The image was so erotic. Nikka cupped her breast. She wanted to come now. “Cor, I want…I want.” She swallowed.

  “To come? You will. Be patient, love.” Their eyes locked together, he stood up. “This is what I want.” He then inserted two fingers inside her pussy. She was so wet that his fingers made erotic sounds.

  “Oh, so good.”

  “Yes. I know.” He pumped his fingers slowly a couple times before he increased his tempo. “I want my body to join with you, Nikka, but not before you agree to become my match. For now, you’ll come in my mouth.”

  He crouched low again and placed his mouth on her pussy.

  “Yes!” Nikka thrust her hips, fucking Cor’s mouth.

  Cor touched her G-spot the same time he sucked her clit hard. This time, he didn’t stop until Nikka’s muscles tightened and screamed his name.

  Her orgasm was so explosive and so long, she didn’t know how long she pressed Cor’s mouth against her pussy.

  When the last ripple of her orgasm left her body, Cor pulled his fingers out of her pussy and then licked the juice around it.

  “Nikka, I want to be the last to taste your come.”

  Nikka cupped Cor’s cheek with her hand. It takes only a heartbeat to fall in love, Samuel had told her. And he was right. She’d been halfway in love with Cor. Now, she felt she’d do anything to make Cor happy. Letting out a sigh, Nikka replied, “Me, too.”

  Chapter Five

  She put on her shirt without looking at him. “No one had ever done that to me before.

  Human or alien.” Cor grinned. She was blushing like a virgin.

  “I need my pants and underwear.”

  “I’ll get them.”

  He loved the way she burst into a little ball of fire as soon as he touched her.

  Tasting Nikka’s orgasm made him so hot that the beast inside him roared to take her fast and hard. Oh, yeah. He wanted to shuck his jeans, let his cock go free, and bury himself deep inside her. Still, he kept his control in check. He’d wait for the right moment for when she agreed to hold his necklace until the Fates decided to make Nikka his. Right now, he’d have to settle with what he’d gotten, pleasuring her with his hands and mouth. “Look at me, love. I’ll never tire making love to you with my mouth. I love your taste, feel. Everything.”

  “That’s nice, but I can’t help think that I acted like a slut. We’ve just met and I already let you…”

  “You saw the elderly couple talking to me today.”

  “Yes.”

  “They told me not to let my chance to get by me and regret losing it forever. This is our moment. It doesn’t matter if we’ve just met. I won’t be green if I’m lying, baby.” Cor took Nikka’s hand and placed it on his erection over his pants. “I’m really hard for you.”

  Nikka cupped him. He hissed from the sheer pleasure of it.

  “Cor, you’re in pain.” Slowly, she unbuttoned his fly.

  He breathed in her mouth, his tongue darting in and out to taste her again. “Fuck, Nikka.”

  “Do you want me to?”

  “Ah, I fucking want nothing more than have your hand around my dick. But we have to stop.” He gave her a hard kiss and then closed his eyes as he pressed his forehead against hers.

  “Why?”

  “I don’t trust myself right now. If I let you, I know I’ll fuck you here.”

  “What’s wrong with that?”

  Cor’s eyes flew open. “We’re not going to do that until you give your heart to me, until you accept me.”

  “We can’t make love without binding myself to you?”

  Cor removed his necklace and then handed it to Nikka. “This has my mark, too. When you agree to become my wife, you’ll hold this while we make love the first time. While I’m inside you, this will start to burn. If you let go, you won’t get my mark and I’ll lose my capability to father a child. Ever. But if you hang on to this until the end, we’ll stay together.”

  “Always and forever,” Nikka whispered.

  “Yes.”

  Nikka looked at the pendant. Closing her hand, she held it in a tight grip. Then he cupped his cheek. “Always and Forever,” she repeated.

  “Nikka, are you sure?”

  “Yes. Let’s do this.”

  “Why?”

  “For the first time in many years I’m doing something different other than trying to survive. Now, I’m going to do something to help others survive.”

  “That’s all?”

  “No. I don’t know how this happened, Cor. But I’m three quarters way in love with you already.”

  “Not halfway?”

  “No.”

  Is this really happening?

  Cor closed his eyes and savored the feel of Nikka’s warm hand. Overwhelming happiness filled his heart so much that his nose began to sting.

  Shit. Can’t believe I feel like crying.

  He didn’t even cry when they buried their dead, when he saw his mother’s body and the women and children he knew. No. All he had felt that day was rage. His heart was only beating because he wanted to stay alive to kill, to retaliate, to give the Rhynian justice.

  Yet, this woman, crawled under her skin in such a short time and made him feel. Again. He covered Nikka’s hand with his. “Nikka,” he stared at her blue eyes. “I’ve never been this happy.”

  Suddenly, he felt like laughing, wrapping his arm around Nikka’s waist and pulling her against him. Her legs wrapped around his hips. She was still naked below the waist.

  “You sure?”

  “Yes. Cor. I want your mark.”

  “Hang on to me.” He let go of his hold on Nikka’s bottom long enough so he could pull his boxers and pants down.

  Nikka gasped when the tip of his cock touched her sweet ass.

  “Like it?”

  “Uh-huh.”

  Using his feet, he was able to pull off his pants and boxers.
Done, he wrapped an arm around Nikka again. With his free hand, he rubbed the tip of his cock on her still-wet pussy. “Fuck. How did I get so lucky?”

  “I should say the same thing.”

  “It’s fate, baby. It’s fate.”

  He placed his hands on Nikka’s soft butt cheeks and then aimed his cock on her slick opening. His wet head slipped in swiftly.

  “Ohhh…”

  Slowly he moved Nikka down so she could take more of him. “Baby, you are so tight.”

  “It’s been a while since my first, Cor.”

  “So sweet.” While Nikka hung on to him, he fucked her standing up. Being inside her was unbelievably sweet.

  “Cor,”

  He walked toward the guestroom while he throbbed inside her warm pussy. “I want you beneath me, on top and on my side. Baby, I’ll show you how an alien makes love to his woman. You won’t regret this. Promise.”

  “And I won’t let go of your necklace. That’s my promise.”

  God of all gods. He hoped so.

  In the bedroom, he lowered Nikka to the side of the bed. His hands on her butt cheeks, he lifted her higher so he could penetrate her deeper.

  Nikka moaned. She had shut her eyes, her lips partly opened. She moved her head from side to side while she gripped the sheets.

  And then he pulled out.

  “Cor,” Nikka whimpered.

  “Patience. Don’t let go of the necklace.” He kneeled on the floor.

  “Oh, my God, Cor. I can’t wait.”

  Chuckling, he placed Nikka’s feet on his shoulders. Fuck. She was wide open for him to take. And take he did.

  Cor flat-tongued her. Shit. Her taste was intoxicating, sending more blood down to his already engorged cock. His balls were heavy and rock-hard. But he wanted to taste her again.

  For so many nights, all he thought about was her clit in his mouth. Now that it finally happened, he wouldn’t rush the moment. While repeatedly lapping on Nikka’s pussy, he used two fingers to penetrate her. Then he flicked his tongue on her clit the same time he fucked her with his fingers.

  Nikka was warm, so fucking wet and close to reaching her orgasm.

  “Cor, your necklace is getting warm.”

  Cor replied by trapping her clit between his lips. He sucked her hard and didn’t stop until Nikka began to push out his fingers. He stood up, then and pulled his fingers out.
