I Married An Alien by Emma Daniels, Ethan Somerville Page A

help thinking, to the most stunning man imaginable. I really must be dreaming. This can’t possibly be happening. But everything I’d been experiencing these past three days had made me feel more alive than anything I’d done in my entire life.
    This meant I was also going to discover sex. At that thought I swallowed. I didn’t think I was ready for that, particularly not with a man I didn’t even know, a man who was so damn huge. Perhaps I could talk him into spending some time getting to know one another first, I thought hopefully.
    “ There.” Dana placed her hands on my shoulders to turn me so I could look in the mirror. Staring at the stunning woman on the other side of the glass, I very much doubted Mr Demantena would want to spend time getting to know me. He’d probably devour me on the spot. I had never seen a more beautiful bride. What if I morphed back into my true self the moment he said ’I do?’ I wondered for an insane moment. He’d probably run screaming from the room.
    “ Are you ready?” Dana asked.
    “ As I’ll ever be,” I murmured softly, still awed by the wide-eyed young beauty gazing back at me from the mirror.
    “ Speaking from experience, the first time isn’t so bad, particularly if you’ve had a boyfriend before.”
    Since I knew virtually nothing about Anita’s life before I took over, all I could do was hope that she had. After seeing how large his hands were, I didn’t doubt Mr Demantena’s other organs were equally in proportion. I suppressed a shiver. I really didn’t fancy losing my virginity to an oversized alien on another planet. But it seemed that this was precisely what was going to happen to me. Once again I hoped that Anita had already had sex.
    “ Have no fear Anita. They have been well schooled in the art of love-making,” Dana once again tried to reassure me. Unfortunately it didn’t work, as another shiver chilled down my spine.
    She pulled the front of my veil over my face, so that I was now looking at the world through frosted gauze. On uncertain legs, I followed her out of the change room, down another long corridor, and into a very official looking chamber.
    Two pompous-looking men were sitting behind a long bench to one side. One looked like he was from Earth but the other was obviously Terron. They all seemed to favor long hair, but this man had his tied back into a neat braid. They both wore elegant black robes adorned with embroidery down the front.
    Another official-looking man stood beside the man I was to marry, along with the older one I’d first seen him with. I wondered if he was his father. The last thing I wanted in my life right now were parents-in-law. He too wore one of those long black embroidered robes. But what Mr Demantena was wearing, or more to the point, not wearing, completely stole my breath away.
    He still had on those shiny skin-tight black pants, but had removed his jacket. I sincerely wished he’d left it on, because I felt my face flush as I took in the sight of the biggest damn erection I’d ever seen, not that I’d been subject to many… well not this up close and personal. If my cheeks could have flared any redder I would have turned into a tomato.
    Tearing my eyes away from that enormous bulge didn’t help my flaming cheeks, because the shimmery white shirt he wore had been left open almost to the navel, revealing the most impressive abs in the galaxy. Which galaxy, I wasn’t sure, since I had no idea just how far from Earth I was, but they beat anything a body-builder from my own time period could have produced without pumping iron and drinking steroid milk-shakes.
    Dana nudged me from behind, and I realize I’d faltered in my steps. I glanced at her, and my confusion must have shown on my face. Once again she beamed her reassuring smile. She appeared to have come out of this still in one piece, so I took a few more uncertain steps.
    My husband-to-be, or mate, or whatever the heck he was supposed to be, held out
