Hawk's Prey (10 page)

Even the idea of being shared enticed her now as she witnessed what it was like to be handled by two males.

“Should we fuck you right here? Some enjoy joining the party.” Hawk brushed her nipples as she tore her gaze away from the threesome to turn her mouth towards him.

“Is he here? Did he watch us?” She had not considered that.

“No.” Hawk’s voice was hard as he let her go and moved away from her. He considered her for a moment. “I might share you, Tova, but you belong to me. Janus is chasing his own foolish desires at this moment.”

“What does that mean?”

He raised a hand up towards her. “Accompany me to my living space and I will tell you.”

Tova stared at his palm and understood him perfectly. If she wanted the privilege of questioning him, she would have to grant him the right to touch her when he liked. The only relationship Hawk offered was one that included touching along with his friendship.

But he was right. They needed privacy.

Her hand landed in his before she thought any further on the matter. Being denied his little grins bothered her as much as suffering her cravings for his body. She had never shared friendship with any male but found that it deepened the intimacy for their sexual encounters in a way that frankly astounded her. It was all mixing together into a combination that was sweeping her away from everything she had ever thought she knew concerning matters of the flesh.

“Janus is no doubt off trying to entice Fay into talking to him.”

Hawk offered her a nod of approval and a half grin. He closed his fingers around her hand and turned. He pulled her along behind him as they reentered the penal sphere, but instead of taking her back to the convict living sphere, Hawk pressed his right hand into a control scanner and opened a door that led to the Hunter living sphere. It was a place she had never expected to see, even if she spread for a Hunter.

The huge dome was darker than any of the spheres she’d lived in before. The clear protective surface kept the harmful pulsar rays from their sun out. People had lived without domes in times past but that was before their main star began to swell into the red giant it currently was. Remaining outside a sphere was toxic if you stayed too long. There were some who claimed the far side of the globe was inhabitable without spheres due to the dense growth of trees but Tova had no idea if that was true or not.

What was true was she had never once in her life thought to walk down a street where Hunters dwelled. They passed many of the black-clad men and each and every one of them was large. Hawk held her hand, pulling her along as her eyes roamed from one set of wide shoulders to the next. Even the older Hunters with grey hair were fit.

There were many females out tonight but they were very different. Some followed behind with their eyes on the ground as they went, while others moved along beside their Hunter escort, nodding to those they passed. Some females wore collars and even a leash or two met with her gaze.

“They are recently detained Trophies.” Hawk shifted his eyes to her outraged ones. “Newly convicted.”

“So you leash them like animals?” Tova looked back at one female whose hands where resting over her breasts, held there by manacles that were chained to her collar. She suddenly stopped and moaned as the young Hunter leading her turned and aimed some kind of control box at her. She shuddered and moaned as Tova blushed. Her temper ignited as she realized another rumor she’d always dismissed as ridiculous was in fact a reality. That little control was for a ritith. A vibrating device inserted through the captured female’s clit. “And you put those things in their…ah…flesh?”

Hawk turned and used their clasped hands to pull her against his chest. “You might enjoy a ritith. You certainly liked the training harness.” One dark eyebrow rose. “And the spanking.”

The arrogance in his tone made her angry. Tova stretched up onto her toes to bring their faces closer together. “And maybe you would enjoy a Trophy female, since you like telling me what I should enjoy so much.” Surprise flashed through his eyes as Tova smirked at him. “You could do whatever you wanted with a Trophy. If that is what you want, go and find one.”

His fingers tightened around hers in response. “That is not what I want.” Tova let her body settle back onto the soles of her feet as Hawk considered her. His eyes swept over her but instead of an impersonal inspection she felt like he was really looking at her. “I want you, Tova.”

Chapter Six

It was amazing how such a simple thing could touch her so deeply. Tova pulled a brush through her wet hair as she moved in a small circle around Hawk’s living space. The outer room was neat and orderly, exactly what she expected. What surprised her were the tiny touches of his personal life.

And the fact that he brought her to his home.

“You do not have to rush your bathing.”

Hawk was leaning against the doorway that led to the kitchen. His shoulders filled it and his head almost brushed the top of it. Tova stared at him in wonder. His black uniform was open all the way down the front of his chest. Dark hair covered his torso all the way to his waist. His black gloves were missing too as was the weapons belt she had become used to seeing on his hips. It was the first time she had really looked at him as just a male. He had black hair that was shaved almost completely down to his skin on his head. But his chest was covered with a thick mat of it.

“Water is not rationed here.”

“Of course not.” She should have thought about that but habits were not simple to discard. Still, she was clean and her skin felt wonderful! The only thing she disliked was wearing her robe. She had worked all day in the garment and longed for a clean one. Hawk’s lazy stance suddenly struck her as odd. His eyes watched her with a strange mixture of heat and control. Almost like he was waiting for something.

“I sent a contact to your family.”

Tova frowned at him. Hawk pushed away from the doorframe. The scum that was her kin wasn’t worth her time as far as he could see but the fact that she was loyal endeared her to him even further.

He cupped her chin and looked at the anger simmering in her eyes. “Do not be angry with me, Tova. I am accustomed to attending to details. I did not want them to worry about you.”

Tova scoffed at that idea. “Rishan wouldn’t have worried.” The words slipped past her lips and Hawk’s face tightened slightly before he nodded.

“So I noticed when I spoke to him.”

Tova shrugged and stepped away from him. “No one chooses their family.”

“True, but you did choose me as your lover.”

She had and it didn’t bother her. Instead a feeling of confidence filled her as she turned to look behind her. “Are we alone?”

“Yes, I don’t have to worry about sharing you until Janus looks through my current activities. For tonight, you’re mine.”

Tova turned curious eyes back towards Hawk. He tilted his head and grinned at her. “Janus has set his sights on a Hunter’s chaste daughter. She does not have to even speak to him if she does not desire it. Fay can keep him busy for us. I’ll have to thank her the next time I see her.”

“Oh.” Tova had heard of such females. Pampered and born into privilege. Such a life was only a fantasy to her. A male like Hawk was out of her reach too. Certainly she might expect to catch his interest since she was healthy. Standing in his living space was what perplexed her. He’d had her, yet there was no reason to share his private life with her. Tender emotion flowed through her as she watched him continue to lean in the doorway. Hunger flickered in his eyes but he was not rushing her towards more sex. Hawk seemed to enjoy their conversation and that made her heart twist.

“Take your robe off.” Hawk lost his easy stance with his words. He straightened his body as his eyes moved to her breasts and lingered on the points her nipples made in the soft fabric.

“No ‘please’?” Tova wasn’t sure if she was asking or testing him.

Tova gasped as Hawk caught her against his body. Her fingers landed on his chest and slipped through the open front of his uniform.

“I told you, I use direct words. You’ll be correcting me a lot during our relationship.”

It was a promise and one that she savored because Hawk did not have to offer her his word on anything. He could have returned her to her sire and been free of her. His use of the word relationship took root in her heart and refused to be still. Somehow, hearing Hawk term their involvement with such a word made it possible for her to surrender to the idea of being shared.

“All right. Let me go.”

“Are you going to behave?”

“You mean, am I going to take my robe off as you commanded? Maybe.”

Tova smiled at the harsh rasp she heard from Hawk. His hands spread over her back as she sent her fingers through the crisp hair on his chest. They were not true lovers yet. He had captured her out in the night and taken her innocence but that did not make them lovers.

“Lovers share the duty of pleasuring each other, Hawk. You have only seduced me.”

His chest rumbled with a growl as she pushed his uniform open further. His flat male nipples came into sight. Tova let her fingers slip over them before grasping the black fabric and pushing it over his shoulders. His hands left her back as she pushed the uniform down his arms. It dropped onto the floor as she raised her gaze back to his face.

“You will have to let me lead you if you want us to become lovers.”

Tova smoothed her open hands over his bare chest as she spoke. Hawk shuddered as she traced the ridges of taut muscle coating his torso before she cupped the bulge of his cock with one hand and gently squeezed. Confidence surged through her as she watched excitement blaze in his eyes. She was the reason for that eruption of emotion and she had every intention of fanning the flames higher.

“I await your command, Tova.”

He jerked the fastening on his pants and the front fell open at the waist. He raised one eyebrow in challenge as he returned his hands to her back instead of freeing his cock completely. His words surfaced from her memory as she contemplated the switch in their roles.

Hawk was now her toy to play with and that delighted her. She backed away from him. Her fingers grasped the fabric of her robe. She pulled it slowly up her body, turning before it rose above her mons. Tossing the garment aside, Tova looked over her shoulder at her lover.

“Dance for me.”

His voice was a raw plea. Lifting her hands above her head, she rolled her hips as she kept her eyes on his face. She swayed her hips from side to side before gently turning in a full circle. She returned to her starting position with her back to Hawk. Once again she swayed her hips before turning to face him. She increased her pace as she swayed while facing him. With her hands held above her head her breasts were on display while she danced.

Tova sank to her knees in front of him and pushed his pants open. His cock sprang into full view as she reached for it. Although she had felt the flesh inside her already, she marveled at how large it was. Her fingers slipped down the length of the staff as her clit flickered with heat. But she wasn’t going to yield to her own hunger so simply. Being the one to solicit responses from Hawk was a powerful emotion. One she intended to savor.

Grasping his cock, Tova leaned forward to lick the slit on top of it. Hawk cussed low and deep as her tongue made a second pass and then all the way around the crown. One of his hands caught the back of her head as she looked up his body to his eyes. Hunger had his face drawn taut as she stroked his cock.

“I could become addicted to being your plaything, Tova.” His hand gripped her head as she let her hand close around his cock. “But some addictions are fatal. I might have to keep you for fear of dying without you.”

He pushed her head towards his cock and she opened her mouth to taste him. A harsh rasp from his lips made her bold and she opened her jaw wider to suck the head of his cock into her mouth completely. There was a slight salty taste from the slit but she licked all around the head before sucking it deeper into her mouth. Her fingers gripped the length that wasn’t between her lips as she listened to his growl of pleasure. The hand on the back of her head pressed her towards his cock as his hips thrust it into her mouth. She felt fluid begin to slide down the walls of her pussy while she worked her head in time with his thrusts. She relaxed her jaw and let him fuck her mouth as she gripped the part of his cock that didn’t fit. He had brought her to her full pleasure with his mouth and she was suddenly desperate to see if she might wield the same power over his flesh.

Hawk denied her that triumph. He pulled her mouth away from his cock as he hissed at her.

“Enough, Tova! My seed will only spill in your pussy.”

His voice was harsh and he jerked as she stroked his wet cock with her hands. His eyes glittered with hard determination. Despite her desire to be the one commanding his pleasure, Tova shivered at the look in his eyes. He was pure male. Demand shone on his face and it was uniquely aggressive. There was a part of her that enjoyed being so close to such a powerful animal. Trust sat firmly lodged in her heart and that made it possible for her to enjoy the surge of heat from the raw look on his face. It was a promise and one that she eagerly anticipated. He was going to possess her again and her clit twisted with need as she rose to her feet.

“Why? You used your mouth to bring me to climax.”

She wasn’t willing to submit so simply to his hunger. Lovers played. Ducking out of his hold on her head, she twirled around in a circle as she swayed her hips. Tova moved faster before she stopped and shook her finger back and forth slowly at him.

“You aren’t playing, Hawk. You’re really so naughty.”

He pushed his pants down his legs in response. Tova felt her lungs freeze as he stood up completely bare. His hands hung just a little away from his sides, with his palms facing her. All the fingers spread open, and he wiggled them slightly as he offered her a low growl. “I enjoy playing naughty.” His eyes lingered over her breasts. “I want to come in your pussy.”

Tova smiled. “I am still dancing, so you must wait.” It was an intense sort of game, one of tempting the beast and she was the bait he would pounce on when the teasing became too much. She worked her hips in a wide circle. One hand stroked down her own neck to her breast where she pinched her own nipple.

Hawk could have looked at her for an hour. Her body was lush and full of curves—a stark opposite to his own. His body was trained into a weapon. His muscles measured for strength while her limbs were designed for only pleasure and that deeper purpose of producing life. He stared at her belly and the promise of possible new life that lay inside all females. It was a dream that he rarely allowed himself to indulge in but tonight it blossomed into full color as he considered her recently taken chastity. That was the true reason he rebelled against spilling his seed in her mouth. Tonight’s need was darker and more primitive than he had ever experienced. Tonight, he needed to fuck, keep his cock pressed deep into her body as long as she would tolerate it.

But it was her submission that truly fed his need. Knowing she came to him, that was a gift that no male could ever take from a female. Hawk treasured the moment as Tova stood for his viewing enjoyment without him demanding that she do it. Her dancing was the most enticing thing he had ever witnessed simply because she did it for him.

Tova shivered as she stopped dancing. Hawk pressed a control on the wall and the lights dimmed before he lifted his hand and presented his palm to her.

“Come, Tova.”

His invitation sent a bolt of desire through her. It was a compromise, a surrender that did not insist she kneel at his feet or obey his every command. They might be lovers who played different roles as their moods changed. His fingers closed around her hand as he pulled her against his body. Hawk bent and hooked an arm under her knees. He turned towards the doorway in one smooth motion that made her gasp. He carried her right into the next room and the huge bed sitting in it.

“You are a temptress,” he whispered as he placed her in the center of his bed.

He placed his hands on either side of her body. The scent of his male skin filled her senses as she felt the touch of his chest hair against her softer skin. The little details made her pussy ache for a hard male touch too. Light spilled in from the open doorway, illuminating his larger body as he leaned further towards her until she lay back against the bedding.

“You tempt me to seal the door and spend the night between your thighs.” He cupped one knee and lifted her leg towards her shoulder before pushing it to the side to expose her slit. He inhaled as he lowered his face towards her sex. “Do you hurt?” He thrust one thick finger into her slit with his question. Tova whimpered as the walls of her pussy tried to clamp around it. She hadn’t realized how much she wanted to be filled again.

“Tova?”

He worked his finger in and out of her pussy as her hips lifted for the penetration. The concern in his voice bothered her. Pride filled her as she tipped her hips towards his hand and opened her eyes to meet his gaze.

“I am no girl, Hawk.”

Her words were sweet temptation. Hawk sucked his breath in as he resisted the urge to impale her. “Yet you were chaste.”

“But that does not mean I am delicate.”

Hawk leaned forward and captured one of her nipples between his lips. Tova sighed at the pleasure. She arched her back to offer her tender flesh to his attention. His finger left her pussy and slid up the center of her slit to her clit. He rubbed the little bundle of nerves as his tongue flickered over the top of her nipple. Pleasure filled her from the combined assault. Tova lifted her hands to touch him. She sighed as her fingers found bare skin for the first time. There was nothing between them and her hands spread out over his chest as Hawk moved to her opposite nipple.

Hawk cupped her breast, grunting with approval at its weight. The soft globe sat in his hand. Tova was correct. She was no budding maiden plucked from the vine the moment the law permitted it. She was fully mature, her body ready for mating. The whimper rising from her throat was more temptation then he could bear. Rolling forward, Hawk let his body cover hers. She lifted her thighs to cradle him as his cock slipped into the fluid coating her slit. She lifted towards him and he thrust forward into her body. A small gasp marked his entrance as she adjusted to his possession once more. Her fingernails bit into his arms for a moment and he savored the tiny pain because she shared it with him. The tight clasp of her pussy around his cock made it impossible to remain still for long.
