Prime Commander (Katieran Prime Series) (7 page)

“I would love to dance with you. And call me Jaxon.” She walks into his waiting arms.

He grabs her and presses her tight against his body. “Call me TylOR.” His deep voice rumbles.

Kyd watched from the shadows as Jaxon pressed her body against the Kiljorn male. It didn’t matter to him that they were supposedly dancing. Did the female not know what a temptation she was? Or, did she know and enjoy teasing males? This thought angered him. If that was the case, then he would put a stop to it immediately.

Jaxon knew she had drunk too much Katieran Juice. Katieran Juice was like Earth’s wine except it was a lot stronger. She felt warm and very, very relaxed. She didn’t even protest when TylOR put his hands on her backside. It kind of felt nice. It had been a long time since anyone touched her as a woman. She felt a tap on her shoulder and turned around.

“Commander KydEL?” She was surprised.

“Captain, I would like a word with you if you can pull yourself away from your public display.” Kyd stalks off towards the shadows.

That … that … MAN! Jaxon yelled in her head as she followed KydEL, determined to give him a piece of her mind.

Damn female! Kyd thought.

It hadn’t occurred to her where the Commander was headed until she walked out onto the balcony she had been on previously. She looked around, nervously, to make sure they had not interrupted something, but Kat and SydEL were gone. The Commander waited for her by the railing.

She walks up to him and crosses her arms over her chest. “What the hell is all this about?” She demands.

“What in Kitana are you doing letting that Kiljorn put his hands all over you?” He yells at her.

“I can do whatever I want with whomever I want to do it with!” She stands her ground when he takes a step towards her.

“He is not the male for you.” The Commander grumbles.

“Oh really? Just who is the right …” She is suddenly cut off by strong, firm male lips claiming hers.

She tries to push away from him but he pulls her into his tight embrace. She feels her body instantly spark to life. Her lips part with a moan. She finally gives into his sensual onslaught.

He lifts her up and Jaxon automatically wraps her legs around his waist. Kyd walks them into the shadows and presses her up against the wall of the building. The female drives him crazy with lust.

Jaxon has a fleeting thought,
“This balcony is seeing a lot of action tonight.”

Her dress rises up to expose her panties beneath. He presses his lower body into hers, she can feel the hardness of his arousal rubbing against the juncture of her covered crotch. She wants him desperately. His thick, rough fingers move aside her panties and tease the lips of her sex. She shivers with need.

“You are wet for me.” Kyd growls at her.

“Commander …” They should probably stop before this goes too far. Jaxon just couldn’t get the words out.

“Call me Kyd.” He whispers as he presses his finger deep between her feminine folds. He pumps it in and out, harder and harder.

“Oh God, that feels so good.” She moans.

“Say my name.” He demands.

“Kyd. Oh fuck … please.” She presses herself back and forth against his hand.

He adds another finger. “You are so tight Jaxon. Release for me.”

“Yes! Yes!” She came so hard she almost lost consciousness. It had been a long time since she had been intimate with anyone. Frankly, she had never had such a strong climax before now. The man had talented fingers.

He starts to undo his pants when his Comm link goes off. “Kitana!” He hits his Comm link, “Commander KydEL here.” He gives her a look that says not to move an inch. “I’ll be there in ten minutes.”

Ten minutes? That wasn’t going to be enough time. She wanted more. She wanted to get naked with him and lick him all over.

He ends his communications and slowly lowers Jaxon back to her feet. “I am needed in the Operations Room.”

Jaxon nodded her head with understanding. She wasn’t sure her voice would work. She could barely stand.

Kyd grabbed the back of her head and pulled her to him for a deep kiss. When he finished kissing her, she had a sexually satisfied expression on her face. He smiled smugly.

“You will not dance with anymore males this evening.” It isn’t a request, it is a direct order.

If she had been in her right mind, she would have told him to stuff it. However, she was still foggy and could only manage to nod her head in agreement. She leaned against the building and watched the Commander’s firm ass walk away. What the hell just happened? She needed a strong drink. She tested her legs out. She took  one step, then another. She made her way back to the ballroom.

She was almost knocked over by the Katieran security liaison TarAK as he dragged a red faced and pissed off AriELa onto the balcony. Yep.
That balcony was seeing a lot of action tonight
. She headed straight to the refreshment tables and started to drink more Katieran juice. She smiled at the assortment of cupcakes on the table.

RendEL swept Cassie away to be alone for a few hours. His mother volunteered to watch over the twins for them. Cassie was cleared for all physical activities because she had a quick recovery from childbirth. She owed that to the second set of Nanos that they implanted.

Cassie had been implanted with two sets of Nanos. The first set was programmed specifically to direct nourishment to the infants while in the womb. After childbirth, the first set of Nanos was expelled from Cassie’s body. A second set of Nanos was then implanted to help repair internal damage to Cassie’s body. Doc had explained that Nanos had a short shelf life and were expelled once the subject was completely healthy or once they had completed what they were specifically programmed to do.

Jaxon was starting to feel the night weighing in on her. She had two more glasses of Katieran Juice which didn’t help matters. Jaxon headed back to her suite.

Lieutenant Silas joined her walk to the blue lift that would take her to the 8th floor. They still allowed her and Kat to stay in the suite together even though Cassie wasn’t living with them anymore.  Jaxon wasn’t going to knock a good thing. She peeked at Silas. He was a very handsome man, but not the one that had her body humming.

“What’s up?” She asks him.

He blushes a little making him appear more adorable. “Uh … I am available for you.”

Did he just proposition her? She stopped to look at Silas. “Sorry?”

“I want to share sex with you.” He tells her while sniffing the air around her.

Oh shit. Did he smell her arousal that Kyd had created and then left her to have to deal with? Crap. Jaxon knew her face was red from embarrassment, which is rare for her.

“Silas, I like you. I think you’re hot. But, what you smell … well … it is from earlier this evening, with someone else. I think of you as a friend.” She says apologetically.

Silas is crestfallen. She hates hurting someone who is nice to her. Maybe she can help him out. “Hey, I think I know the perfect girl for you. How about I call you with a day and time where you can share a meal with her and see how things go?”

He sighed with resignation. “Maybe.” Guess it was time to move on. Whoever it was that Jaxon was with, better treat her right. He left her at the blue lift doors and went back to the ballroom.

Jaxon wasn’t sure what she would find waiting for her in her suite. Would Kat and Prime Medic SydEL be there? Would they be getting busy? Would Kyd come to her suite later? Would they get busy?

Turns out, nobody was getting busy that night in her suite. Kat sat on the couch in her pajamas sipping Katieran juice. “Damn frustrating man.” She would occasionally blurt out.

Jaxon took a shower and changed into her pajamas. When she went to check on Kat, she was still sitting on the couch sipping the juice. Jaxon grabbed the glass from her and placed it on the table. “Did you want to talk about it?”

Coming out of her trance, Kat stares at Jaxon with confusion. “What do you mean?”

Jaxon sits down on the little coffee table so she can face Kat. “Doc, we can play 20 questions, or, you can just tell me what is up with you and Prime Medic SydEL.”

Kat blushed. “How did you know?”

Jaxon left out her usual snide remarks. She reached out and squeezed Kat’s hand comfortingly. “Doc, I saw you tonight on the balcony.”

“Oh God.” Kat tried to bury her face in her arm.

“No one else saw and I left before I saw … too much.” Jaxon reassured her.

“The man is self-important, stubborn, and just … impossible!” Kat exclaims.

“Wow, sounds just like his brother.” Jaxon states sourly.

“Ren? He’s not like that at all. He’s a sweetheart to Cassie.”

“The other brother.”

“Oh.”

“So, what’s happening with you two?” Jaxon asks sitting back on the coffee table. She wants to keep the conversation off of her and Kyd. She isn’t sure herself what is happening between them and isn’t ready to discuss it with anyone else yet.

“There was an instant clash of wills when we first met. The circumstances were not great. He was the first medic on site when Cassie had her collapse. I didn’t know who he was and I threatened to have security remove him.” Kat relived that first meeting in her mind as she told Jaxon about it.

“Wow that must have gone over real well.” Jaxon couldn’t help but laugh.

A few seconds later Kat joined her in laughing. “Not well at all.”

“From what I saw tonight, it didn’t seem to me like he holds that first meeting against you.” Jaxon said.

“He treats me as an inferior, like I have no intelligence or skills!” Kat is getting worked up.

“You’re a doctor. Of course you have intelligence and skills. You are responsible for the safe birth of Cassie’s twins.” Jaxon states.

“I was partly in charge during Cassie’s delivery because I was the only one with experience in twin births. Afterwards, they expected me to go back to only
assisting
the other medics in routine procedures.” Kat wiped away a stray tear that slipped down her cheek. “I worked my ass off in medical school and gave up a personal life so that I could pursue a surgical career. My knowledge and experience have been treated like rudimentary skills all because I’m a woman.”

“I faced the same thing growing up and especially in the military. I had to constantly prove myself by volunteering for every mission that came up.” Jaxon told her

Kat nods her head. “Every time I try to do research or question something about the Katierans’ problems with conceiving, I am met with suspicion and resistance.”

Jaxon sits up at full attention. “Are they hiding something from us?”

“I think there is more to their problems than they have led us to believe. They won’t let me get close enough to find out. Why don’t they understand, I only want to help.” Kat sounds dejected.

“If you explain that to Prime Medic SydEL, he could okay the clearance with Medic JadEN. And he seems to be into you.” Jaxon suggests.

“It’s a little more complicated. I don’t want to involve Medic JadEN in this. I am so confused most of the time. Prime Medic SydEL runs hot and cold. One minute he acts like a Casanova, growling at me, giving me heated looks. Then he talks to me like I’m a wayward 10 year old that needs to be constantly lectured. I’m fed up with him.” Kat complains.

Jaxon smiles at her mischievously. “Hey, you know what the best cure for getting over a man is?”

Kat looks at her curiously, “What?”

“Another man.” Jaxon told her.

Blasted female! Kyd couldn’t keep his mind off of the hot little brunette with the warm brown eyes. She had been a fiery surprise tonight. When he first reached for her he expected her to lash out at him painfully. But she melted in his arms.

He would never forget how the female tasted.  After he used his fingers to bring her to release, he licked her juices clean from his hand. Her taste was branded on him for all time now. His cock ached to be buried in her tight warm sex. He smiled with the knowledge that Jaxon had not been with a male in a long time. His erotic thoughts were rudely interrupted by work.

“Commander, did you want the full security detail put back on the Kiljorns?” The Second Commander asked.

“No, a light security detail is good enough for now.” He hopes to be done quickly. He has unfinished business to attend to.

Maybe work was a good thing. He needed to take a step back and rethink this whole thing with Jaxon. They would be great sexually, but what about the rest of the time? They were constantly getting on each other’s nerves. He had always thought he would settle down with a beautiful docile female. Jaxon was beautiful but in no way was she docile.

Maybe he should pursue Lindsey Carreli like Ren had suggested. She was lovely, and would never challenge him openly. He had thought about it several times while he was on Earth, but never did anything about it because he knew that she had feelings for his brother. However, Ren was fully mated to Cassie now. Did Lindsey still have feelings for him? And was this really what Kyd wanted?
