“Now tell me what all this secrecy is about. I won't take more of your lies,” I said. “What did Jrarka mean you are cleared?”
“I thought I had the virus.”
“What?”
“Yes, I thought that when I was on the ship and Ephane experimented on me, I thought that's what he was doing. I didn't know about it until you mentioned the virus when we were on the moon. I have worried since then that perhaps they injected me with the virus when I was asleep. I thought that was what they were experimenting with. But I had no way of knowing for sure.”
I gasped. I could not believe it. She had been hiding this from me ever since the moon. No wonder she had shut down. She was worrying about it for very long. With no one to confide in. It hurt my heart to know that she was in such distress and all alone. “Why did you not tell me? We could have worked on it together. You did not have to do it alone? Why did you confide in Hekan and not me? Do you love him?”
“What? Hekan? No. It is not like that. I confided in him because I did not want you to know that I might have it. If you knew, then that would mean that you would not want me ever again.”
“What? What makes you say that?” I said as I put my hands on her delicate shoulders and forced her to look at me.
“You told me that the entire reason you took me from Earth was so that I could be your mate. So that I could provide you with offspring to keep your race going. If I had the virus, I would be barren and not able to do that for you. You would dump me in an instant and find another human female,” she said as she cried.
I pulled her into my arms and rubbed her back up and down. “No, I would never do that. We would get through it together. If you have the virus, it will make no difference. I would still want to be with you, Maria. There would be hope eventually with a vaccine, and even if it was never ever cured, I would just do without offspring. We would make it work no matter what.”
“You only say that now because I do not have it. Or at least Jrarka says it is too early to tell, but that he does not see any signs of it. I am still not completely sure yet.”
“It does not matter. It does not matter at all. I want you, Maria. I don't want anyone else. Seeing you with Hekan set off such a rage inside of me that I know now that it is because I love you. I am in love with you. I cannot see you with anyone else. My mind will not allow it. I have wanted you ever since I saw you. These last few days of you rejecting my advances has been torture. I need you.”
“I need you too Cerik,” she said.
“Then, let me in. Do not deny me any longer, Maria. I have apologized so many times about the mission and taking you along. I have so much guilt about it. But can we not move past it? I need to be with you. It is torture being apart.”
“Yes, I feel tortured to not being able to touch you,” she said laying her small hands flat on my chest. She looked up at me and said, “I do not hate you. Now that I have seen Amelia with her child, I see how important the mission was to everyone here. In fact, now that I am all right, I am glad that I was part of it. If I had been living here before the mission began, I would have volunteered for it. I would have volunteered to be the bait and the distraction that you needed in order for Ephane to believe you were on a mission to fetch a female from Earth. I see why it was such an important mission. The entire planet here relies on that one mission. I do not hate you for it. In fact, I think you are very brave and full of courage for being the one to do it, all by yourself. You are a Draqua hero, Commander Cerik Hade,” she said. Then she got up on her toes and reached for me.
I leaned down and pressed my lips against hers. I'm moaned in relief from feeling her again. But I was also extremely aroused that she had called me a hero. My ego loved hearing that from the woman that I desired and loved. I allowed my hands to move down her small back over the sheer fabric until they were scooping her plump bottom. She let out a soft whimper as I kissed her and fondled her. I pulled the sheer dress up higher and higher. She stepped away from me and put her hands over her head. I pulled the dress off of her.
“You have taken to dressing in the Draqua way very well. You look damn good in it; good enough to eat.”
“I am glad that you think so,” she playfully said. I threw the sheer dress on the ground and scooped her up into my arms. I walked her over to my bed and laid her down on the soft mattress. Then I stepped away from her for a few steps.
“What are you doing? Where are you going?” she said sitting up.
“I am going to shift out of dragon form,” I said.
“No, don't. I want you to stay that way, please,” she said looking very embarrassed that she was requesting such a thing. I liked it.
“If that is what you want, Maria, then you shall have the Dragon,” I said as I pulled off the belt that secured my loincloth. It dropped to the ground. I was already as hard as I could be. She gasped at the sight of me. I extended my wings out, stretching them, getting ready for this long round of pleasuring her, and myself. I pulled off my boots and walked to her.
CHAPTER FIFTEEN
MARIA COVALLOS
I felt such a sense of relief after telling Cerik everything. I didn’t realize just how detrimental it was to hold something like that in for so long. It was a big, big secret and I had finally let it go. After hearing Jrarka say that I was cleared, I suddenly felt like a desirable woman again. I had felt like a reject ever since I thought I might have it. With that feeling came my sex drive. It was back again, and it was full blown. I wanted Cerik, and I wanted him now. He stood in front of me completely naked. We were in his hut. I had never seen it before. He was being that dominant and arrogant alien that I knew, and yes, loved. He had taken charge and picked me up and took me to his home in order to reclaim me. I welcomed it. It was a damn good feeling. I was so worried I would never be with him again and that he would not find me desirable that it was such elation when I got it all back in a span of ten minutes or less.
He stood in front of me naked with his hard cock sticking out and his wings spread out behind him. He was in dragon form, and I was completely turned on by it. It made me wild with desire.
“Come to me,” I said.
“If that is what you wish,” he said. He climbed on the bed and removed the cloth that went around my breasts. He moaned as he set my nipples free. He licked one and then the other. I moaned in response. Then he moved down my belly and placed soft kisses there. Then he pulled the loin cloth off of me. Now I was naked on the bed. “I want to taste you again, Maria. I have longed to taste you,” he said. Before I could answer, he was between my thighs. His long tongue licked my wet center fast, and then slow, and fast again. I arched my back up and pressed myself against his face. I loved looking down and seeing him between my thighs again. His strong back muscles flexed with every movement and his wings were folded behind him. It was damn sexy to see those wings and the dragon pattern of scales on him. He was a full-on dragon hybrid warrior, and that turned me on. He licked me harder and faster and it did not take long before I was wildly squirming on the bed. “Oh god. I’m going to release. I can’t stop. I am going to cum, Cerik!” I shouted. He growled in response, but he did not stop. He kept on moving his tongue on me and then I broke into an orgasm that I thought would make me black out as the swirling hit me. I laid my head down on the bed in order to get myself to stop spinning. Then he climbed up my body and kissed my thighs, my belly, my breast and my neck.
“Now I’m going to fuck you over and over again until I can no longer move,” he said.
“No, wait,” I said. He frowned at me.
“Are you going to reject me again? I don’t think I can handle that again, Maria. When are you going to see we belong together?”
“No, not that. I just think it is my turn is all,” I said as I put my hand on his chest and pushed him back away from me a little. Then I let my hand go down and wrapped around his hard cock. He moaned. “I see.”
“Stand up, my dragon warrior,” I said.
“Y
es, as you command, human female,” he said. He stood up, and I stood up in front of him. I bent down to my knees. I put his cock in my hand again and then placed it in my mouth. He growled. I swirled my tongue around the tip of his cock and then pushed it into my mouth.
“Oh damn, Maria, that feels so good. Oh damn,” he whispered. I put my hands on his hips and moved him toward me. He sucked in a sharp breath of air and then put his hands in my long brown hair. I played with his rigid staff in my mouth, licking it up and down and then putting it in my mouth again. Finally, he pulled away from me and stopped. “I can’t handle anymore. I need to be inside of you.”
I smiled at him. He helped me to my feet, and then I laid on the edge of the bed with my legs dangling over the side. He arched his brow at me. “I like that position,” he said. Then he walked toward me and stood between my legs and pushed the tip of his cock inside of me as he grabbed my hips. I moaned loudly in pleasure. “Oh yes. I’ve missed that feeling,” I whispered.
“So have I,” he said. Then he pushed in deeper and deeper. I watched him, the dragon. His wings spread out behind him as he entered me completely. Then he began to move himself back and forth. His cock slid in and out of me easily. I was so damn wet. Then he moved faster and faster. I could feel my ample breasts bouncing up and down. Cerik’s eyes were on them; he stared at them hungrily. He was groaning and growling, and I was whimpering. I was on the brink again. Just staring at this hot alien dragon was enough to put me over the edge. “I’m going to cum again,” I said quietly.
“Good. Don’t hold back, Maria. You are mine now. You belong to me. I will not share you with anyone. I am your dragon and you are my human,” he whispered.
With those words of possession I released. I was in complete ecstasy knowing that he wanted me as much as I wanted him. I felt my entire body experiencing the extreme pleasure. I was trembling as I exploded into fireworks. I was squirming on the bed and trying to grasp at something, anything, to stabilize myself.
After a few moments, I was able to breathe again. Cerik was still moving in and out of me.
“How did that feel?” he asked.
“Heavenly. So damn good,” I whispered. He grinned that dashing grin.
“Now you will do something for me?” he said. My eyes grew wide with wonder.
“What is that?” I asked.
Then he pulled out of me and said, “Stand up.”
I looked at him curiously and stood up. He turned me around and pressed the back of my body against the front of his strong body. His warmth was electrifying. Then he grabbed me by the waist and placed his hand on my shoulder and slowly bent me over the bed. I placed my hands on the mattress. Slap!
“Aah!” I shouted in surprise. “What was that for?” I said looking over my shoulder.
He moaned. “That was for cutting me off. You have been a bad human, and I need to punish you. No one cuts me off like that,” he said playfully.
Slap! He spanked me again.
“And that?” I asked, smiling over my shoulder, enjoying this little sensual game.
“That was because I like to watch your ass jiggle when I spank you like that. It is delicious. I wish that you could see it.”
Then I felt the tip of his cock entering my wet center again. “Spread your legs wider,” he whispered. I did as he said and spread my feet apart. Then he pushed his cock inside of my slit and grabbed my hips. It was an entirely new sensation from this angle.
“Oh yes, that feels so good. Go slower,” I said. Cerik moved his cock in and out slowly as his hands massaged my ass. He was enjoying this view, and it made me feel so damn sexy. Then he moved faster and faster. Then after a few moments, he was groaning, “I am going to cum, Maria. I am going to release.”
Then I felt his juices flow inside of me. He moved faster and faster as he released. Then he slowed down and came to a stop. We stayed in that position for a few seconds before he finally pulled out of me. I turned around and wrapped my arms around him. He held me close to him and rubbed my back. He picked me up and laid me on the bed gently. He moved away from me and shifted out of dragon form. He poured a big glass of water and brought it to me.
“Thank you,” I said.
He laid down beside me and looked at me. “You are something else, Maria.”
“I can say the same about you, Cerik Hade,” I smiled.
“That is true,” he said. I playfully slapped his arm.
“So arrogant,” I said.
“But that is what you like about me, isn’t it?” he said with that dashing grin. I pushed a thick piece of black hair from his forehead and said, “Maybe.”
“You know that it is. Now you should relax and get some rest. We are going another round in an hour,” he said.
“Oh is that so?” I said.
“Hell yes, now that I have you I am never letting you go. I am not letting you out of my sight the rest of the night.”
I arched my eyebrow at him. “That sounds exhausting,” I said.
“Yes, so rest,” he said.
I laughed and kissed him. Then I laid back with a smile on my face. I was extremely happy. I felt real bliss running through me. I was excited, and I knew that I was in love. It had hit me hard.
True to his word, Cerik and I went two more rounds into the next morning. It was exhausting, but I enjoyed every second of it. We slept in late. Then he left to see to his duties as a commander.
I took a hot bath and made it out to the village to meet the women for the afternoon field foraging.
“You look like you are glowing,” Amelia whispered to me as we walked side by side. I noticed that the jungle interior of the island seemed more vibrant before. But it was just me that was happier.
“Yes, I am,” I said.
“And why is that?” she asked. I gave her a look but did not answer.
She gasped. “You bad girl! I am happy for you. You and Cerik deserve each other. You are a good fit. Ravinn said he knows that Cerik is in deep love with you. He said he has never seen Cerik get so jealous before. It kind of shocked him.”
“Really? That is good to know,” I said.
“Are you guys going to join us?” Brenda shouted at us. I realized that we had stopped walking and were standing in the middle of the path.
“Coming!” Amelia shouted back as we began to walk faster to catch up to them.
“Do you love him, Maria?” she asked.
“I do, Amelia. I really do. I can’t believe it. It has happened to me too. All the human women here are so smitten with Draqua warriors, and it has happened to me too.”
“Yes, it is magic. Just go with it,” she laughed. I laughed too. Then we emerged into the fields once more. I went to work knowing exactly what to look for. I was excited to be able to have a skill. We did just as we had done before. We picked flowers and herbs and then took a quick thirty-minute nap in the grass. I fell asleep this time because I did not get a lot of sleep the night before. Then afteward we took the path by the training grounds and watched the warriors train again. Once again, it was hot and impressive. They really were unlike anything I had ever seen. Their skills were deadly and accurate. Finally, Amelia pulled us away, and we went back to wash the herbs and prepare the meals in the communal kitchens.
Amelia and I took a break and swam in the ocean. The water was cold, and I was able to see beautiful fish and creatures as I swam. I finally understood the clothing that the Draqua wore. The loin cloths and tube tops were swimsuits, and the sheer dresses were swimsuit covers. You had to always be dressed for a quick dip in the water to cool off.
When the sun set, Cerik met me in the communal kitchen areas.
“Shall we have dinner together here?” he asked.
“Oh yes! I helped to pick the flowers and herbs when we went to the fields today, for the meal, and I prepared and cooked a lot of the fish and crab.”
“Well, in that case, we absolutely must stay. Did you have a good time today?” he asked.
“I did.
I had a lot of fun,” I said smiling. I placed a kiss on his cheek.
“Yes, I saw you and the other humans at the barracks watching the training,” he smiled.
I flushed a shade of pink in embarrassment. “You saw that?” I said thinking back to how we stopped to spy on the Draqua warriors again.
“Yes, I was beginning to feel jealous. If I weren't so busy, I would have scooped you up and taken you home myself,” he said playfully.
“It was fun to watch,” I said.
“I bet it was,” he said.
“But it only made me want you right at that moment,” I whispered in his ear.
“In that case, we should eat quickly so I can get you home.”
“Home?” I asked.
“Yes, my home is your home now. I want you with me. If you want?”
