Charlotte and the Alien Ambassador by Jessica Coulter Smith

never know if he was with her because he loved her or because she was pregnant.
    “You can’t love me, Charlotte. I’m not worthy of your love. You should have fallen for Larimar. If you’re determined not to take a mate, I won’t force you. Just… stay in your wing of the house. Make friends with the human females in Terran Prime. Have them over for lunch, go shopping with them. Do whatever makes you happy.”
    “You make me happy.”
    “Stop. Don’t say things like that. We can’t be together, Charlotte. It’s not going to happen.”
    Tears gathered in her eyes when she realized he was never going to accept her, never fall in love with her. And now she was carrying his baby. She had to try one last time, make him feel the way he did the night he’d taken her in his arms. She approached slowly and his gaze burned through her. Her hands slid up his bulging biceps and landed on his shoulders. The muscles under her fingers tensed as she pushed herself up on tiptoe and pressed her lips to his.
    At first, he was unyielding. Then, slowly, he began to kiss her back. His hands cupped her hips and brought her closer, until her body brushed against his. For a man who said he didn’t want her, he kissed her with a passion she only ever felt in his arms. He made her feel wanted, needed. But she needed more than to feel it. She needed him to say the words.
    Borgoz slowly undressed her, his hands caressing every exposed inch of her flesh. She tugged at his clothes, wanting to explore his body as well. When they were both naked, she nipped at his throat, kissed her way down his broad chest, and sank to her knees at his feet. His cock was big and hard, and she was very determined to give him another reason to keep her. She knew things between them were explosive, but she wanted him to know that it wasn’t one-sided. Charlotte wanted to please Borgoz as much as he pleased her.
    Her gaze fastened on his as she licked his shaft. His eyes widened and she felt his body tense as she took him in her mouth. In theory, she knew what she was doing, having read a lot of romances over the years, but having never done this before, she was worried she would disappoint him. She licked and teased, sucked and stroked, until he was groaning and fisting her hair.
    Charlotte felt his balls draw up and prepared herself, but instead of coming down her throat, he jerked her to her feet, spun her to face the railing, and pressed on her back until she was bent over.
    She looked at him over her shoulder and gripped the railing tighter as he slowly entered her. His cock stretched her and filled her, making her want more. Borgoz trembled behind her, and after a few strokes, he was pounding into her hard and fast. Charlotte closed her eyes as the sensations flowed over her, taking her higher and higher. She felt his fingers lightly pinch her clit, and it was enough to send her over the edge. Crying out her release, she felt herself tighten on his cock, milking his seed from him.
    When he was finished, Borgoz leaned his forehead against her shoulder, then kissed her there softly. She felt hope bloom inside of her as she turned to face him, but the look in his eyes doused her in icy water. Despite the incredible moment they had just shared, she could tell nothing had changed. He still meant to push her away.
    “Borgoz…”
    He held up a hand. “I’m a weak male when it comes to you, Charlotte, but what happened tonight doesn’t change things. I still don’t have time for a mate, and you still would be better with someone like Larimar. Perhaps it’s best if we keep our distance from now on, until you’re mated and in another home. I don’t seem to have any control where you’re concerned.”
    She nodded slowly, pulled her dress over her head and turned. Charlotte walked out of his room and out of his life. If he didn’t want her around, then she wouldn’t be around.
    When she reached her room, she used the Vid-Comm to contact Larimar and told him
