Ravenous Alien Mate

by Sue Mercury

  He growled and grasped her hips, then pushed forward into her welcoming entrance.

  Gods.

  His vision blurred and a wave of dizziness came over him. She was so tight, but a glance at her face showed she wasn’t in any pain. She still appeared blissful, as if she was enjoying every moment of their first mating.

  After withdrawing nearly the entire way from her pussy, he thrust back inside, going as deep as he could manage. She moaned and once more clawed at the sheets. Her breasts were full and pink-tipped, with hardened nipples that drew his gaze. As he commenced plunging in and out of her, he bent down and suckled upon her nipples, even dragging his teeth along the delicate buds.

  She uttered phrases in her native tongue that he couldn’t understand, so he started talking to her in his own language.

  “You are the sweetest, most beautiful female I have ever beheld. You are the answer to my unspoken prayers, Leah, for I have always longed for a mate to call my own, a mate with whom I could start a family and build a happy life. I realize we don’t know one another very well yet, but I promise I will always treat you with kindness. I will take care of you always, always, for you are now the force that keeps my heart beating.”

  He resumed laving at her nipples and started driving into her tightness faster. And deeper.

  Leah loved it when Jav spoke to her in his native tongue. Perhaps it was because his eyes gleamed with affection and his voice was filled with warmth when he did so. She peered at him as he suckled her nipples and once again reached for the base of his horns, just to see if her touch would make him growl repeatedly, as it had the first time she touched him there.

  It worked, and a split-second later his tongue vibrated against her bosom as he released a deep, feral growl that caused her pussy to clench around his thrusting hardness. Oh God. Her head fell to the side as another wave of blinding pleasure rushed toward her.

  She’d lost count of the orgasms he’d given her with the skillful movements of his tongue, and she felt utterly exhausted from having come over and over again during a short time, but she still felt yet another orgasm approaching. She couldn’t have stopped it if she tried.

  It seemed Jav was determined to wring every amount of pleasure from her body that he could summon, and she was putty in his masterful hands, helpless against the onslaught of passion he elicited from her.

  Before she’d left Earth, she hadn’t known it would be like this with her Martian mate. She had assumed the act of completing their mating union, as well as all the mating sessions afterward, would be technical affairs, the purpose of which was only to get her pregnant.

  But as Jav continued shoving his hugeness into her, she felt as though her heart were softening toward him. He had been so kind to her today. Experiencing the primal force of his desire in the aftermath of his repeated kindnesses left her tingling all over, eager for every plunge of his massive cock.

  If he hadn’t gotten her so achy and wet before driving into her, she imagined this first mating session with him might hurt. But he’d given her so much pleasure and had taken his time preparing her for his cock that she wasn’t experiencing the slightest pinch of pain.

  His massive body shuddered above her and he threw his head back, releasing a powerful roar that made the headboard rattle against the wall. Then he started pumping into her faster and deeper, each plunge stealing her breath. She screamed when a quick but intense orgasm stole over her, and she moaned at the feel of her insides contracting around Jav’s plunging cock.

  He gripped her hips harder, his fingers digging into her flesh. His dark gaze fixed on her.

  “Leah. My mate,” he said, his voice deeper than usual. “My female.”

  Then she felt the gush of his seed filling her, a steady pumping stream of warmth that coated her insides and leaked out onto her inner thighs.

  He roared again.

  Chapter 13

  Frenzy of lust, indeed.

  Leah sat up in bed and winced at the soreness between her thighs. It was a pleasant ache though, the kind that reminded her of all the intimacies they had spent the last two days sharing.

  At least she thought two full days had passed since she’d arrived on Mars.

  In between the frequent, rough mating sessions, she’d seen the sun set twice and the moons drift high in the sky. If she was keeping track correctly, that meant Jav still had eight days left before he must return to work.

  Her stomach growled and she looked up as he entered the bedroom, carrying a tray piled high with food. They’d spent the last two days having sex over and over again, only pausing when they needed to eat or drink. She remembered one time in particular when she’d ran off to the bathroom, claiming she needed to take care of some business. She’d decided to take a quick shower while in the bathroom, only for Jav to hurl the door open and join her.

  He’d bent her over as the water cascaded down upon them and shoved his hard cock straight inside her, plunging deep and claiming her until he erupted in her depths, filling her with his seed for the umpteenth time.

  If she didn’t end up pregnant soon, she would be shocked.

  “Here,” Jav said, his eyes growing dark. “Eat quickly, my mate.” Ever since the first time he’d claimed her, his voice always came out deep and strained. It sounded as though he were in pain, though he had assured her he felt fine. “I am simply ravenous for you,” he had explained. “Eager to sink myself back into your tight depths. Eager to claim you over and over.”

  Leah tucked into the meal, completely starving after hours of nonstop sex. The food was delicious, as always, even the dishes she didn’t recognize. Jav had a knack for replicating foods she enjoyed.

  He sat next to her in bed, also helping himself to the meal. His hands shook as he reached for a piece of bread. Ever since he’d first claimed her, he had been shaking a lot. Sweating a lot, too. His forehead glistened under a sheen of perspiration. Whenever she inquired if he was all right, he would give her a long, heated look, then proceed to start claiming her all over again.

  He had spoken to her very little and when he did say something longer than a quick command or a short sentence, he spoke to her in his native tongue.

  She wondered how long his mating frenzy would last, but she doubted he had the answers. When he’d told her he was genetically enhanced, he hadn’t been entirely certain what would happen, as he’d mentioned his knowledge of the Vash’arr mating lust came from rumors.

  He ate several pieces of fruit and then shot to his feet, an urgency about him. He rushed into the bathroom and started opening and closing cabinets. She gulped down some water and watched him through the doorway, curious about what he was doing. Just as she was about to call out to him, he emerged from the bathroom holding a large jar.

  He immediately picked up the food tray, set it on the bedside table, and gave her a pointed look tinged with impatience. “Spread your legs,” he said. “Now.”

  After a deep breath, she did as he asked, leaning back on the pillows as she spread her legs. She was surprised when he opened the jar and scooped out a generous amount of clear salve. He spread the ointment upon her tender folds, then set the jar aside and looked her up and down.

  “Does that make your soreness feel better, sweet Leah?”

  Her heart lurched. It was the first time he’d called her sweet Leah in a while. Perhaps he was starting to come down from the mating frenzy, his rational thoughts returning.

  “Yes, actually, wow, it feels so much better.” She looked at him. “How-how did you know I was sore?” She hadn’t complained at all, and really, the soreness hadn’t been that bad, all things considered.

  “I’ve mated with you over a hundred times during the last three days,” he said. “It is only logical that you would be sore, though I am certain the nanobots you recently received have helped abate the worst of your pain.”

  “Three days? I-I thought only two days had passed.” She shook her head briefly, trying to center herself. She couldn’t
believe she’d missed a full day. He really had been keeping her busy.

  “Yes, it has been three days since I made you mine, sweet Leah.” He crawled to her and pressed his body to hers, a feral gleam in his dark eyes. “And I’m about to continue making you mine. Bend over the bed. Now.”

  With his assistance, she somehow managed to make her legs work. She bent over the bed and he urged her thighs wide apart. He’d taken her from behind like this frequently, but she still experienced a delicious quaking shiver throughout her entire body, as if this was the very first time they would share this experience.

  Hell, every time he mated with her, there was that sharp undercurrent of tension to their lovemaking, that same spark of newness and longing she’d experienced during their first mating session. Would the sense of newness ever cease?

  Would he always leave her breathless with excitement, as if he was touching her for the very first time?

  He gripped one of her hips, then dragged his hard cock through her wet folds. She was already aching for him, whimpering and on the verge of begging him to shove inside her. When he teased her, even for a few moments, she sometimes became so frustrated that she almost yelled at him to just thrust into her already.

  He started speaking in Marttiaxoxalian and the foreign words washed over her. Sometimes, when he spoke to her in his own language, she liked to pretend he was confessing his love. She wanted to matter to someone. Did she matter to him? Did he truly hold her in affection?

  He’d uttered a few flowery, heartfelt phrases to her in Galactic Common during her first day as his mate, but did he truly care about her? Was he starting to love her?

  It was the weirdest fucking thing and maybe she was still on the verge of losing touch with reality, but she still felt as though her heart were opening to him, more and more with each hour they spent in one another’s company. She could easily imagine herself falling wildly in love with him.

  Jav finally pushed inside her, slamming into her with a force that took her breath away.

  He groaned and growled and set a fast pace of claiming her. His balls slapped heavily upon her with each thrust, crashing against her pulsing clit.

  She cried out her release as he pumped his seed into her, but he didn’t allow her to get up after he finished. Instead, he ordered her to remain bent over the bed with his semen slipping out of her pussy to coat her inner thighs.

  “I like it when you’re covered in my seed,” he said in a hoarse tone as he stepped back, as if to admire his handiwork. Then he pressed himself into her again, already hard and ready to claim her once more. It seemed he barely needed more than a few seconds in between mating sessions. It was no wonder he’d claimed her over a hundred times in the last three days.

  “Jav, please,” she begged. He was teasing her with a series of shallow thrusts that didn’t allow his balls to slap against her clit with much force.

  “Please what?” he asked. “Tell me what it is you need, sweet Leah, and perhaps I’ll be accommodating.”

  Her face heated. Could she really ask for what she desired?

  She resisted and pressed her lips together, telling herself she had her pride. Surely he would lose control at any moment and start rapidly fucking her again. Or would he? Slow minutes passed as he continued with the shallow thrusts, barely grazing her clit with his scrotum each time he sank into her depths.

  “I can do this all fluxxing day,” he said, his voice threaded with amusement. “Tell me what you want. Tell me.”

  She whimpered. He must truly be coming down from his frenzy of lust if he suddenly possessed this level of control. The bastard.

  “I-I want you to fuck me. Hard. Please.” She buried her face in the covers, embarrassed by the words he’d just forced her to say, but to her great relief, he answered her desperate plea.

  He gripped her hips harder and started driving into her with so much force, the bed moved several inches forward. He followed her as the bed continued screeching across the floor, fucking her fast and deep and allowing his balls to slam upon her clit.

  She came with a hoarse cry.

  Seconds later, she felt the warmth of his seed spilling into her yet again.

  Chapter 14

  Leah stared at the star encrusted sky and marveled at the sight of Mars’ two moons. Though Phobos and Deimos were smaller than Earth’s single moon, as well as irregularly shaped, a sense of wonder filled her whenever she stood on the balcony of Jav’s quarters and looked at the night sky. The unusual yet melodious singing of nocturnal insects added to the feeling of adventure, as well as her current view of the palace gardens, which contained many colorful flowers that glowed bright in the darkness.

  Two strong arms circled her from behind, and Leah sighed with contentment when Jav’s familiar masculine scent surrounded her. There was a cool breeze tonight and she’d been shivering a bit, despite the warm robe she’d borrowed from him, but his body heat instantly chased away the chill.

  “I thought I’d find you here,” he said, a deep murmur into her ear.

  She turned in his arms. “I woke up and couldn’t go back to sleep, so I thought I’d enjoy the view. Your planet is breathtaking at night, and so calm and peaceful.”

  During her years of incarceration, she had never dreamed she would one day set foot on a planet as lovely as terraformed Mars, let alone make it her permanent home. But here she was, secure in the embrace of her new mate while enjoying the most resplendent view she’d ever glimpsed.

  “I’m glad you approve.” He cupped her face, drawing her gaze to his. The light of the moons reflected in his large eyes.

  His nostrils flared suddenly and a low growl rumbled from him, an indication that he desired her again. But before he made a move to claim her, she wanted to know a little more about him. In the midst of their frequent mating sessions, she hadn’t gotten a chance to ask him many questions about his past or his life on Mars. She simply knew he’d recently come to live in the palace and that he was a dedicated member of the Vash’arr.

  “Jav, do you, um, have any family who live in Ressiktron?” she asked, hoping this wasn’t a dangerous question to ask. She’d heard many of the Martians had lost female members of their families when the Xieandans poisoned the water supplies on their home planet, but she hoped he hadn’t lost anyone he cared about during this attack on his people.

  He guided her to a nearby chair, then sat down and gathered her in his lap. His naked thighs were sturdy and warm beneath her. Though she couldn’t see his expression very well in the darkness, she sensed an abrupt change in his mood. Her question had struck a nerve.

  “Wait,” she said, holding up a hand. “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to. If it’s too painful for you to talk about, you need not say a thing. I’ll understand.”

  He leaned closer and pressed his face into her hair, taking a deep breath, and his arms tightened around her. He pulled back to stare into her eyes and ran a hand through her locks.

  “No, it’s all right. I want to tell you.” He paused and drew in another deep breath. “I do not have any family. All Vash’arr are taken from an orphanage at an early age. I was among the first order of Vash’arr to receive genetic enhancements.”

  “I-I had no idea.” All at once, she doubted he’d had a very happy childhood and her heart broke for him. “I’m sorry,” she said, simply because she didn’t know what else to say.

  “The scientists did not take me against my will,” he said in a somewhat defensive tone. “I volunteered. The idea of being able to help my people defeat our enemies filled me with purpose. I do not regret my decision to become a Vash’arr warrior.”

  I have been waiting my entire life to meet you, sweet Leah.

  The words he’d spoken during their first meeting came back to her now, suddenly more meaningful than when he’d first uttered them.

  She shifted in his lap and stared into his dark gaze. “So, you were an orphan, but you used to wish for a family? Is that why…” Her
voice trailed off and her face flushed, though she wasn’t certain why she felt so shy about the question she wanted to ask.

  She swallowed hard and forced herself to continue.

  “Is that why you said you’ve been waiting your entire life to meet me? Because you long for the family you never had?” She had the urge to press his head to her bosom and hug him as tightly as she could, all the while promising that she was now his family and one day they would have children of their very own. But she froze in his lap, waiting for his reply.

  After a long silence, he nodded. “Yes, that is correct.” He pressed a lingering kiss to her forehead, and she inhaled deeply, savoring the fragrant yet manly scent of him. “And now you are here, in my arms. My forever mate.” His deep but calm voice reverberated over her, momentarily drowning out the noise of the nighttime insects.

  Her heart fluttered at his words. She reached for him and stroked the side of his face. He tilted his head into her touch. Her throat burned and she struggled to issue the words that now rested on the tip of her tongue.

  But, finally, she found her voice.

  “On my first day on your planet, you told me that I’m now part of your family, Jav. You said you would always take care of me. I came here, frightened and not knowing what to expect from my mate, a male I’d never met before, and you made me feel safe. I-I want you to know that I will strive to always take care of you as well. You’re my family, too, and one day, we’re going to have a bunch of children. I just know it.” She smiled. An image of Jav chasing around a little purple half-Martian half-human child flitted through her mind, lifting her spirits and making her heart ache for the children they would one day have.

  Never look back.

  Thomas’ words came to her unbidden, as if on the breeze that was ruffling her hair, and she repeated his words of advice in her head, until it became a mantra for her future. Never look back, never look back, never look back. She couldn’t embark upon the second chance she wanted with Jav unless she stopped looking back.
