~ Kinsey Lea ~

♥

The last few days have been rough.

I miss Din Tairin.

The house is not the same with him at work. I look around his office and miss his presence. My heart aches even though I will it not to. I clench my hands in agony.

I can’t let him get under my skin.

Too late for that
, my foolish heart whispers. I plop down in his chair and just inhale his scent. Nothing smells like him. His unique aroma travels through my body causing my clit to pulse in need. Oh yes, he's getting to me. Deep down I know it's wrong. Maybe one day I'll have the strength to ignore my attraction to him. But today is not that day.

I place my hands on his desk and then rest my forehead on the cool surface. Cool is what I need. I need my heart and body to be cool not hot and burning for him.

When will I learn? Nobody can be trusted. Everybody leaves.

My lungs expand as I breathe deeply of his scent. Heat swirls through me. “No, I can’t continue to let him get to me.”

Moving out of his office, my feet trudge along the cool stone floor. I go into the living room and glance out the glass wall leading to the backyard. Oh yes, my friends are back there.

I can't help but smile as I head toward the glass. Several of the blue birds are flying around looking into the house. I take the last few steps and press my hand against the glass. When they recognize me, they immediately fly over and blink innocently. Camleons’ dark green eyes standout underneath their fuzzy unibrows. The birds are so flipping cute.

I laugh as I watch their crazy antics. Oh yes, birds are the best kind of friends ever. They never let you down. They don't lie and they don’t lead you on. They are just who they are. Fun and free.

I can easily love birds. I wish I could love Din Tairin. But I know that is not safe. Experience has taught me that the birds are way better. They are altogether different. They are my true friends. My brightly feathered friends make me laugh as I watch them flying around blinking their eyes and sometimes pecking at the glass near my hand. I long to go outside and feed them. If only Din Tairin trusted me enough to let me outside I could feed them every day.

I see one of the birds looking behind me. My heart races and then pounds out a crazy beat. A second later I hear a noise behind me and turn. Din Tairin is watching me.

He's home. My foolish heart is extremely happy. I can't stop feeling so drawn to him although I wish I could. Maybe I should just learn to enjoy the moment. Enjoy him while I can. Longing, hope, distrust, love—they all circle through me over and over. I wish I could get off this road that leads to nowhere.

“Come, little seema. It's time to add your palm print to the security system." His golden eyes darken a second. "Are you ready?"

A thrill runs through my body. "Yes." He trusts me. Oh yes, this is flipping great.

I follow him to his office. Happiness is pinging through me. Until it isn't. What if he's only adding my handprint because he hopes I will leave? Is he tired of me? I push the negative thoughts away when he smiles down at me. His handsome face doesn’t show any signs of dislike or frustration.

He has me place my hand on a dark pad. I see a light glide through the material. After a moment a small beep sounds and his smile widens.

“Let’s go try it out.”

His enthusiasm has me agreeing and hurrying after him. It he wasn’t so tall I’d be able to keep up with him better.

At the door, I place my hand on the metal. The cool texture reminds me not to let this kind act make me fall any further for him. A slight movement has me smiling up at him. “It worked. Thank you. I love feeding the birds.”

“I know. That’s why I have a surprise for you, little seema.”

“What?” My foolish heart races at the thought of him spending the time to get me something.

His chuckle warms my heart. “You’ll see, seema.”

I follow him into the backyard and around to the edge of the house. My gaze lands on a long metal pole and a birdhouse. No, it’s more like a birdhotel.

I can’t help myself. I rush over and wrap my arms around his waist. His arms wrap around my body. I snuggle into his warmth for a long moment.

I take a deep breath and savor his scent before I look up at him. “Thank you. This is the best gift I’ve ever been given.”

“Your welcome, little seema. Now let’s get this thing up so the camleons can move in.”

I release him even though I don’t want to and then laugh when a green camleon flies over and lands on top of the house. “Not right now, little guy. I don’t think it’s ready just yet.”

“No, but it soon will be,” Din Tairin says as he picks the large birdhouse up and starts walking into the backyard. I bend to pick up the pole so I can drag it to the center of the backyard. I gasp in surprise when the pole slips from my hand.

“Wow, this thing is slick.” I try again and snort when the metal slips from my hand once again.

Din Tairin chuckles as he comes over and grips it firmly with his large hand. “Thanks for trying, little human.”

I snort as I follow him to the birdhouse. “What is that pole made of?”

“A special metal. It’s extra slick to keep a variety of animals from climbing up it and eating the camleons.”

“Oh.” My brows scrunch down as a thought worms its way into my mind. “How many animals eat those cute camleons? I can’t imagine eating one. They are so fuzzy and cute.”

Din Tairin smiles down at me. I love his deep dimples. “You are kind, little seema. That’s why you wouldn’t eat them. But many other animals aren’t so kind to the camleons. Your friends are considered quality food to several animals.”

I don’t like the thought of that. My friends should be protected not eaten. When one of the blue birds comes over and lands on my arm, I ruffle the tuffs of hair that stick out on both sides of its head. “How could anyone want to eat you?” I turn my gaze up to my sweet alien. “We have to save them.”

“Yes, Kinsey Lea. That’s why I brought the birdhouse home.”

Joy rushes through me. You don’t save the friends of people you don’t care for. This definitely means he wants me to stay with him. “Thank you.” Warmth builds in my chest and seeps into my whole body.

I stand back and watch him attach the birdhouse to the pole and then prepare the ground for the slick metal. His muscles flex and bunch as he works. The sight has my body heating up. Desire ribbons through me.

He inhales deeply and then looks over at me like none ever have before—with intense passion. He smiles showing his dimples and a flash of his pearly white fangs.

“We’ll get to that soon, seema.”

The promise in his eyes lets me know he knows what he does to me. Flipping fucking fudge. I don’t like him knowing he has power over me. That kind of knowledge is bad.

When he goes back to work, I look down at myself. I look the same. How does he know I’m horny for him?

My cheeks must have given me away. I bet they are flushed. That’s not good. I stare at his muscles as he works. The longer I watch him, the hotter I get. My clit is now aching.

Quit staring at him. I look away and watch my friends fly around for a bit. But when his scent wafts over to me, my gaze is drawn back to him. I can’t think straight when he’s around.

With each day I want him more. Life is short. I need to enjoy it as much as possible and stop flipping worrying. So what if he gets tired of me later on. I’ll handle my heartache at that time.

A gentle breeze carries his masculine scent over to me again. This time it hovers and teases me for a long time. My core heats up and desire pools between my legs. Yes, I need him badly. I need his shaft deep inside me.

If he doesn’t make a move soon, I will.

Soapsuds run through my fingers.

The silky feel of the cleanser is enhancing my need for him. I look over and watch as he rubs soap into his own skin. The flex of his muscles has my pulse racing. The intense look in his gold and purple eyes is adding to my need for him. Does he know how badly I want him?

The days have been slipping past. It feels as though I was born here. My old life is nothing more than a distant memory. Some of those memories are still nightmares. Okay, a lot of them are bad but I’m here now. Zaphin is where I’ll live for the rest of my life. I look my pretty boy alien over and am amazed that he’s mine.

He is driving me crazy. The look of pure passion in his eyes has fiery heat pooling in my core. I look down his body to get away from the pull his gaze has on mine. That wasn’t one of my smartest moves.

His body is so perfect. The others have scars but not him. I don’t think his twin does either. What is it about them? Are they the luckiest warriors on the planet? When he starts soaping his shaft and rubbing it with such loving care, I stare at his huge erection.

With some stretching, I think most of it will fit inside me. When his large hand grazes the base of his cock, he shudders. I look closer when his hand moves back up his hard length. The bulge at the base of his cock must bring him pleasure. I long to investigate that thick patch of flesh. I look him over and notice for the first time that he doesn’t have any balls. Is that a warrior thing? Does that mean he can’t get me pregnant?

A touch of something close to sadness swirls through me. I wouldn’t have minded having our baby. The little thing would be adorable if he or she looked like him. The baby would be an extra mouth to feed when he eventually kicks me out but the baby would be worth it.

When he moans, something in me switches on. I need him. He shouldn’t be stroking himself. He should be plunging inside me. My womb clenches at that thought. An ache goes through me when tension coils within my core. I lick my lips and my breath catches when he rinses off. The sight of the water sluicing over his muscular form has my knees wobbling. I step back and let the showerhead near me clean the suds from my own body.

I have to have him. He inhales deeply and then growls softly. His eyes glow lightly bringing out the purple more than ever.

“Flipping fuck, I need you, Din Tairin.”

He takes in a sharp breath and then smiles at me. His dimples appear and his eyes flash. “I’ve been waiting for you to say that.”

If I’d known he was waiting for an invitation, I would have demanded sex sooner. I gasp when he picks me up and takes me into his bedroom and puts me down in the middle of the bed.

“Do we need to dry off first?” His sheets are going to be drenched in no time. A few drops of water fall from the tips of his black hair. He doesn’t seem to care.

“I don’t have time for that. I need to taste you right now, Kinsey Lea Walker.” His voice has a low growl to it that has the desire in me tightening.

Heat pours through me as he hovers over me and stares down into my eyes. I can see his need for me. I can practically feel it. The passion between us is like a living being. Strong and powerful. It needs to be fed.

A shudder runs through me when his lips come down on mine. The kiss starts out soft but quickly turns into a hungry mating of mouths. His muscles bunch under my touch. He slides a knee between mine and spreads my legs wide.

I groan when he settles his body onto mine. He holds most of his weight off of me as he continues to devour me. I wrap my legs around him and grind into his hard member. The silky yet hard feel of his long thick length has me moaning. He is going to feel so good. I just know it.

With great care, he kisses his way down my neck and then runs his fangs over my shoulder. I moan and grind harder against his erection. A husky chuckle comes from him right before he moves downward. His tongue lapping up water droplets as he goes.

He looks up at me and whispers over my pebbled nipple. “Your reaction to my fangs is a good sign. I think you are going to love my bite. But it won’t happen just yet.”

I arch into him as his lips surround my aching bud. The pulse between my legs beats wildly. I rub harder against his solid body. I need relief. I hope he gives it to me real soon.

As I watch him suck and tease my nipple something shifts in my chest. He is such a caring lover. With him being so handsome that surprises me. Any female would drop her clothes for him—caring lover or not. He’s so flipping handsome. And so thoughtful in bed. That’s something he doesn’t have to be with me since I’m here for his pleasure.

When he rolls one nipple and sucks the other I cry out and arch hard against him. Lust is surging through me. The tension in my core is quickly becoming unbearable.

He releases my nipple with a soft growl and then starts kissing his way down. His tongue catches several drops of water still clinging to my body. I gasp and then groan when he slides down and spreads my legs wider. He inhales deeply and his eyes glow a little brighter as he stares at my pussy.

The look in his eyes lets me know why he has me shave—he loves feminine curves. Even small fleshy lady lumps. My theory is confirmed when he leans forward and inhales, a groan rumbles from his chest. I watch his tongue lick my wet slit.

This time he growls softly. It’s almost a purr. His pretty eyes close as he licks me over and over again. I want him to suck my aching clit but the expression on his face lets me know he’s not moving on until he’s ready.

My arms give out when he delves his tongue into my aching channel. I drop down onto the bed and shiver as he repeatedly plunges his tongue into me. Fisting the sheets, I moan and writhe on the bed.

When I start panting in need, he moves up and latches onto the little pearl within my wet folds. My pulse races and I tremble as he pushes me closer to ecstasy. A part of me doesn’t want to come yet but another part is more than ready.

I grind my hips against his mouth and grip his wet hair. As an explosion of color blasts before my eyes, I cry out and tighten my hold on him. I tremble as I come hard. His tongue is now slowly caressing my clit, keeping my pleasure coming.

He doesn’t stop until I sag into the bed. “That was so good.”

A soft growl comes from him as he starts kissing his way up my body. “It’s about to get even better.”

I don’t see how but his confident tone makes me believe him.

He continues kissing a path up my curves, nibbling along the way. My hands slide over his shoulders and along his back. The muscles bunch and flex under my touch. When he starts sucking my nipples an arrow of renewed lust shoots downward. Carnal desire starts pooling in my core and heating my blood.

My body has never responded to a lover the way it does to Din Tairin. It’s scary and exciting.

When he nips at my nipple I feel his fangs graze my flesh, I moan and arch into him. He has a strange power over me that I can’t deny. I need him.

I grip his solid shoulders as he kisses his way up to my mouth. His lips brush over mine in a gentle kiss that quickly turns demanding. He settles the hard length of his shaft into my slick folds and rocks gently at first and then with more urgency.

The passion in me ignites. I start rocking against him as the need in me builds.

“I need you now, seema.”

His voice is passion roughened and it sends out a signal that heightens my need. “Then take me.”

A touch of fear slides through me when he fits the tip of his huge shaft to my opening. He inhales and then growls softly.

“I won’t hurt you. I’ll go slow until my cock adjusts to your size. Relax, seema.” He breathes into my ear causing heat to replace my fear.

His warmth surrounds me as he starts sliding into me. He grips me tightly as he merges our bodies. The pressure has me gasping and then panting. His breath blows over my neck as he continues to inch forward.

I’ve never felt anything like it. He’s so big he could hurt me but he doesn’t. He continues at a slow steady pace. Just when I don’t think I can take anymore, he growls and his cocks thickens.

His groan fills the room right before he pushes in a little deeper. His fangs sink into my neck at the same time the bulge at the base of his cock slides through my folds and presses into my clit.

I cry out and convulse beneath him as pure pleasure bursts through my body. Every nerve ending pulses from the bliss washing through me. Lights flash brightly before my eyes. He releases a warning growl and then starts pumping his hips.

The feel of his massive shaft sliding in and out of me has me crying out again. I tremble and my toes curl in ecstasy. He removes his fangs and moans and grunts as he rides me hard.

My wet pussy pulses around his shaft. Each thrust has his unique patch of skin pressing into my sensitive clit. It keeps the pleasure coming until he grips me tightly and drives into me one last time.

He growls passionately as his body jerks and his seed shoots into me. I feel the powerful jets and moan at the bliss they bring. Another shiver courses through me as he sinks down onto me and breaths heavily against my neck.

“That was amazing,” I whisper.

He nuzzles my neck and then rolls us to our sides. “Yes, it was, little seema. And we get to do it as much as we want.” He places a sweet kiss against my ear. “It’s time for you to move your things into this bedroom. From now on you will sleep with me.”

A thrill runs through me. He wants me close. I want the same thing. “Yes, Din Tairin.”

No more words are necessary. I stroke the curls around his ear until his breathing slows to a sleeping rhythm.

In the dark, a shiver races through me. This one is not a good shiver. I’m getting too attached to him. His amazing lovemaking and command for me to move into his bedroom makes me long to be with him forever.

That’s not good at all. He could die, like Milo. Or he could get bored with me like David.

I start stroking his hair again. I need the connection to him. The feel of him does something to me. It’s dangerous but I can’t escape it.

I have to protect my heart but relish the moment. I can do that. I feel better now that I know what I have to do. There is no way I’ll fall for him but I will enjoy him while I can.

I
can
do this.
