her mouth, mimicking the movement of his hips. Her body
shuddered and spent itself in a quivering orgasm that left her breathless.
Jake growled his approval. “Oh baby, you’re going to pay.
You’re going to pay for everything you’ve done to me since you came on board.”
He was still hard. Jake thrust again, his pace increasing
until he was pounding into her. She couldn’t move, pinned helplessly against
the door. Jake possessed her mouth again in a savage kiss. His lips trailed
down her neck, grazing the sensitive skin with the stubble of his beard. Tanith
could feel another orgasm building inside her. She clutched his shoulders as he
thrust into her over and over again, until he roared out his release. Pleasure
spiraled mindlessly inside her and she came again. They slid to the floor of
the elevator, gasping loudly. Jake pulled her into his arms. “Tanith, if you
ever so much as look at another man again, I’ll kill him.”
Tanith lay sprawled against his chest, listening to his
heart race. Her human was back and she had missed him so much.
“Emergency lights on, com.” Jake sat up. His fingers brushed
her neck where he had bitten her. “I’m sorry I was rough with you, but when I
saw you with Strom, I just lost it…”
She eyed the scratches on his shoulders and the grazes on
his hip and thigh where she had scraped him with the heel of her shoe. “You
didn’t hurt me, Human. For what it’s worth, I more than repaid you.”
Jake reached for her tattered dress. “Sorry, Tanith, I don’t
think you’ll be wearing the dress again.” He pulled on his pants and reached
for his tunic. “You’ll have to wear this. I just hope we don’t meet any of the
crew.”
Tanith caught a glimpse of her reflection in the metallic
wall of the elevator. The sleeves were too long and the tunic only reached
mid-thigh. It was quite obvious that she was naked beneath it. Her mouth was
red and bruised, her hair was wild. She looked like a woman who had been well
and truly loved.
Jake’s arms crept around her and he pressed a slow kiss
against her neck. She could feel the evidence of his arousal against her lower
back. “I need you again, Tanith. My cabin’s not far from here.”
Jake pressed the com badge. “Ship’s com, elevator seventeen
is back online. Override all calls and take us direct to deck twelve.”
The corridor was mercifully empty. Jake picked her up in his
arms and ran the length of the deck while she giggled helplessly. They stopped
outside his cabin for a lingering, hungry kiss. “Ship’s com, request a do not
disturb on cabin 1244. Hold all coms until further notice.”
Inside the cabin, his eager fingers opened the buttons on
her tunic and he dropped it to the floor. “I need a shower.” He grinned. “Do
you want to join me?”
She followed him through the dimly lit cabin, past a large
bed and into a bathroom that was bigger than her cell in the brig. Jake dropped
his pants and stepped into the shower stall, initiating the sonic showering
device. “Aren’t you coming in?”
“Not yet. I’m just admiring you.” She had forgotten how
beautiful he was. Every inch of him was toned and well defined. She could feel
the Dermatrax perking up in anticipation. It was insatiable tonight. It
couldn’t get enough of Jake and neither could she. Tanith stepped into the
shower and shut her eyes. The showering device gently cleansed them both.
Jake held her close, pressing tender kisses against her face
and hair. “Let’s go inside. I want you in my bed.”
She wriggled on the thick silk quilt. The human was trying
to torture her. He had kissed every inch along her legs, paying particular
attention to the sensitive area at the back of her knees, before licking and
kissing his way slowly up her thighs. She was aching for him, but he wouldn’t
let her move. His fingers touched the base of her spine and she jumped. The Dermatrax was sensitive to his every touch. She felt his tender kiss and
