Tallusian Nights [Xihirian Shifters 2] (Siren Publishing Classic) (8 page)

Zalora just looked at him. Some humanoids would be leery of him now, as even Earthen humans could sense his beast beneath his cool exterior. Prey could always sense a predator, even numbed Earthen humans. But Zalora moved closer to him as if to absorb his warmth. She showed no fear. “I’ll bring you rations when I’m done gathering wood and leaves to burn.” He reached out to touch her hair. She leaned toward him, smiling. His heart raced. She wanted him. He could smell her desire. It was alluring, pulling his beast closer to the surface. Her hair was as soft as he remembered.

“Are you sure I can’t help you?” With the fire out, she looked paler and smaller.

“Yes, I insist. I’ve everything under control.” He released her lock of hair then moved away from her. “I’ll take care of you.” He handed her a canteen of water. “Take some. You need to hydrate.” She did as he suggested as he walked her to their tent. “Try to rest and stay warm.” She looked weary. It worried him to see her look so tired. Nodding her head, she went inside their tent. She lay with her head near the tent’s entrance. Val started a new fire closer to her. It was bright and warmed the inside of the tent nicely. It was nearly dark now. Gloomy clouds from bomb-induced dust covered the sun. The shade trees shortened the days considerably. “It should be really warm in there soon. Wrap up with the other tent’s material. I’m going to take care of things. But I won’t be far. If you need me or get scared just yell for me. I’ll hear you. Call my name.”

“Okay. But you won’t go too far?” She rolled to her side, facing the tent’s wall.

“No, I won’t.” Before he turned to walk away, he heard her soft breathing indicating she’d fallen asleep. Quickly he removed his uniform. Stretching his limbs, he moved to the other side of their tent to shift. Warmth and the healing of his shift shimmied over him. After he left their camp, he took off in a run. He surveyed their area, circling their campsite at various distances many times, leaving his scent. The native animals peered out of hiding, watching his huge black-furred body move about what was once their territory. Now he dominated it, and none challenged. Shifting back, he gathered some twigs and leaves for their fire then made his way back to their camp.

Stoking the fire, the flames blazed, crackling. Zalora had been right about the aromatic leaves. The smoke they created was a pleasant scent. It further relaxed him. Stooped by the fire, he ate some rations. After he finished, he packed up all the food then moved the bag into their tent, careful not to wake her. The sweet aroma of the leaves filled their tent, it was very pleasing, and he inhaled deeply. Yet the aroma did not replace her engaging scent. She called to him.

With ease, he moved under the tent material, which covered her. He hadn’t bothered to redress. Evidently, she sensed his presence, moving closer to him. Snuggling into him, she moaned. He closed his eyes, taking some deep breaths. His cock jutted up between them, rigid and ready. Unexpectedly, she pressed herself into him, sandwiching his long stiff cock between them. His hard length was so sensitive, every incidental touch made him want to growl. She’d pressed it against her soft tummy.
I want you.
He pressed his face near her head. He knew she was mostly asleep, merely seeking comfort and warmth. Val groaned at the pleasure she was inflicting. “If you wake up, we’re going to mate.” He kissed her ear. Restraining himself, he laid still until she settled, her breathing evening out into a full sleep.

Val suddenly woke, alert to his surroundings. Animals were making noises. The wind had picked up. Drops of rain hit their tent’s roof. It was very dark when he looked past their fire. However, he could see the trees as well as the many creatures moving about. They were hunting, frolicking, and running. None bothered their camp, only casting curious looks. The fire burning bright was also a deterrent. Zalora still cuddled close to him, her arm draped over his waist. Incredible urges raced down his spine. Just as he was about to push her back to lie between her thighs, thunder boomed followed by a flash of lightning. It lit everything up, like day. “We’re going to have a strong storm.” The sound of the thunder roused Zalora. She rolled away from him.

Looking soft and vulnerable, he wanted to fall upon her, burying his cock within her core. His nostrils flared as he inhaled her scent. Zalora was flushed from sleep. Her auburn hair framed her face. She was so lovely. His needy body craved to consummate their mating. So intense his need, he trembled. Thunder boomed again, shaking the ground. Her eyes flashed open looking directly into his. For a moment, she looked frightened. “It’s okay.” He brushed her hair off her cheek, and his hand shook. Lightning flashed again as rain started to fall harder. Zalora’s eyes widened as she looked at him. Her gaze traveled down his face to his chest, truly examining every aspect of him. He could see her appreciation of him. Deep purple, they shimmered in the fire light.

To his surprise, she touched his chest, running her fingers over his pecs down to his taut belly. He sighed as her hand caressed his abdominal muscles, stopping just before she neared his jutting penis. In response to her stroking him, he touched her breasts. Still covered by her work shirt, her nipples stood at attention. Tenderly he rubbed one nipple then the other. She sucked in air, but did not push him away. He continued to touch her, becoming bolder. Her small hand rested on his abdomen as he fondled her. Leaning toward her, he took her mouth with his.

“Umm.” She greedily tasted him, answering his kiss with one of her own. Desire ripped up his spine, making him dazed. His cock ached. Lightly he pushed his cock against her stomach, cupping her breasts while he ran his thumbs over her each erect nipple. His hips pumped against her. She moved with him. All the while, they passionately kissed. Zalora trailed her hand along his bicep up to his neck. She caressed the side of his face. While playing with his hair, she continued to kiss him. Her touch made him groan. He pulled away, reaching for the bottom of her shirt. She helped him pull it over her head. Underneath, a lovely sheer-laced undershirt covered her, outlining her stunning breasts. “You’re beautiful.” His hands pushed the plump globes together. He kissed her face and neck. Then he pushed her fully to her back as his mouth made its way to one of her nipples. Val laved kisses all over her breasts. A new urgency overtook him. He felt his canine teeth fully come down.

He took one of her nipples in his mouth, gently sucking, careful not to hurt her with his sharp teeth. Zalora pressed against him, moaning. Pausing, he took hold of her sheer undergarment, pulling it off, too. Her breasts bounced completely free. “You’re so nice. I want you.” He kissed her valley between her breasts. “So nice.” His large hands pressed her breasts, pushing them together toward his face. He continued to kiss her breasts and neck, making his way to her mouth. Her hips moved against him in a dance he wanted to finish with her.

“I want you.” Zalora nipped his ear lobe. She’d spoken so softly, even with his extraordinary hearing, he almost missed what she’d said. He moved fully onto her, pushing her legs open to accommodate him. Sweat rolled down his back as he struggled to control his enthusiasm. Noticing her hesitation, he kissed her again.

“You want me?” He kissed her ear. She wrapped her arms around him, sighing near his ear. He could smell her need. It made him lightheaded. “You smell so nice.” Her pussy was damp. She pressed it against him, making him wet from her juices. Moving his hips, he positioned his cock at her entrance. To his surprise, she pressed her thighs together. He fought back his momentary aggression to plunge into her. He kissed her neck under her hair, rocking against her. “Zalora, open for me.” He nipped her neck. Zalora sighed, stroking his back.

Again he moved, lightly pushing against her wet pussy, but she tensed beneath him. Then he realized why she hesitated. “Zalora, haven’t you done this before?” He looked down at her. She shook her head. Her eyes were bright. Innocence looked back up at him. “Do you want to mate with me?” He could barely speak, but he knew she was uncertain. “I want you. But I want you to be willing.” His beast wanted to take her hard, push deep, hard, making her his, now. He tensed his buttocks and his legs, mustering his control from the depths of his core. Zalora reached between them, taking his cock in her hand. She pumped her hand up and down his stiffness.

“You’re so big.” Purple eyes looked up into his. “It’s going to hurt me, it’s so big.” She squeezed him lightly with her hand. “Isn’t it?”

“Oh…oh, you feel so good.” He shuddered. He kissed her behind her ear. His movements were not as gentle as he had wanted to be. “I’ll make you feel good, I promise.” He moved to lie fully upon her, burying his head in her hair. Her hand became trapped between them.

“You promise?”

“Yes.” He moved his hips against her.

“You make a lot of promises to me.” She pushed up into him. “Your penis is so smooth and hard.” She caressed his cock, rubbing her hand up and down, then she gently stroked the damp tip. Shivering, he turned his head to kiss her. Raising his hips up, he positioned himself again over her entrance. This time with her hand, she guided his cock’s tip into her vaginal opening. Val pressed into to her, determined not to relent. She relaxed, allowing him, inviting him to penetrate her. Then again, she tensed. He stopped, caressing her hair back from her face.

“What’s wrong?” He kissed under her ear again, running his tongue over her lobe.

“That tickles.” She giggled, relaxing again. Taking the opportunity, he pushed harder into her. She cried out as he buried his cock to its hilt. She’d been a virgin, tight, narrow, and he broke her skin, which proclaimed her innocence. When fully seated within her, he froze to gaze down at her. Tears gathered in her eyes.

“I’m sorry for hurting you. They’ll be no more pain. Only pleasure.” He kissed a tear as it rolled down her cheek. Wrapping his arms under her, he pulled her against him as he began to move his hips. He moved his hips rhythmically, pushing his cock in and out of her pussy. She was exceptionally wet, evidence of her desire for him. There was a sucking sound as he moved within her. Her thighs were moist, coated with her wetness. Zalora moaned, squeezing him with her vaginal muscles. He watched her expression change to one of pure pleasure. She fully relaxed, accepting him completely inside her. Val increased his pounding. She wrapped her legs around his legs. A frenzied sensation took him over. His canines ached. They’d been fully elongated in his mouth. Instinctually, he bit into her shoulder, holding her down. Zalora screamed. She moaned loudly, and her sounds encouraged him. While he bit her, holding her down, he picked up the speed of his pumping. He fucked her with such intensity his mind was blank to all else. She offered no protest.

His cock got bigger, swelling into a full knot holding him within her. Every sensation focused on her, he mated with her. “Zalora.” His entire body trembled as he lost his precious mating-seed. His seed laced with his mating hormone filled her body. She was greedy for it, her vaginal muscles continued to flex around his knotted cock. He could smell his hormone had grown stronger. A faint tinge of blood mixed with their other fluids excited him more. His conquest of her thrilled him. She was his mate. Possessiveness engulfed him like a wave of electricity. His cock ached. The sensation was new, intense, and overwhelmingly sensual. He was wild, frenzied with desire. Val continued to pump his cock as much as his mating knot allowed him to move. He worked his cock as his seed spewed from him. Never had he felt such pleasure. Kissing her frantically, his pleasure increased, climaxing to an unmatched potent level, making even the hairs on his body tingle with pleasure. Again, possessiveness clamped down on his emotions making him claim her further. “Mine,” he whispered in her ear. “Mine.” He growled.

She moved to kiss him. Their tongues dueled in a kiss, which mimicked his cock moving in and out of her pussy. Stunned by these unbelievably joyous sensations, he pulled back, trembling all over, his muscles tensed. He wanted to howl. Instead, he buried his head in her hair. “Mine.” Zalora’s soft hands caressed his sweat-slickened back. He growled again at her delicate touch, pressing into her more. He knew he sounded like a wild animal, but he could not control his reaction. Yet, she kissed his neck, pulling him to her. She’d surrendered fully to him.

Her inexperience was apparent by her complete surrender to him. There was no guise in her actions. She made every effort to please him. “I’ve never been so pleased.” He remained within her, his cock throbbing. She kissed his cheek. The storm raged outside just as his heart did within his chest. Every ounce of his characteristic disciplined self evaporated like steam. He allowed his wild part to take control. He was every bit the Alpha Prime Wolfton taking his mate.
I’ll never let you go.
Her scent on him undid him even more. Sucking in his air, he calmed his rising beast. Thunder rocked the ground as the rain turned to an icy drizzle. Their fire continued to blaze, casting orange with yellow shadows inside their tent.

For some time they rested with him lodged within her, her legs hugging him. She was soft. He immensely enjoyed the feel of her against him. “Are you okay?” Finally, he was able to speak.

“Yes.” She hugged his shoulders. He rolled to his side, pulling her against him. She snuggled closer to him, kissing him again. Another thrill raced through him realizing she wasn’t done either. Boldly she kissed his mouth, his face, and down to his chest. Her soft lips made trails of sweet kisses. “Are you going to ride me again?” He gently tugged her hair, pulling her head back to look into her eyes. “Now I understand what you meant about you riding me.” She giggled. He rolled her back, and within seconds, he was inside her. “You had plans for me.”

“Yes, I have lots of plans.” He squeezed her buttocks with his large hands. “I’m going to ride you.” He nuzzled her neck. “Oh you feel wonderful.” He pumped slowly, savoring each stroke. Their eyes locked in a stare as he slowly moved inside her. Zalora moved with him. They danced together as their bodies mated. Shivers made them both tremble. Her eyes closed as a strong ripple of pleasure passed through her. He could feel it, too.
