Excerpt:
“It’s in your best interest to comply,” I say calmly.
Her nostrils flare and her eyes
become watery. “I don’t want to go back to sleep.” She bites down on one of her swollen pink lips. “If you don’t plan on letting me go home, can’t
you just let me hang out with you?”
I blink at her, confused by her words, momentarily stunned by
her vulnerability. After a second, I shake my
nog to clear it. “No.”
She holds out both of her tiny palms as if she has the power to
stop my massive frame. Small and delicate. Shaky. A bluish
tint shades her slender fingers. Her teeth
begin to clack together and I cock my nog to the side, curious at the sounds
she’s making. When the sounds become louder, I worry she’s
about to strike.
I straighten my spine, letting my sub-bones crack and pop as I
rise to my full height. My ears flatten against my
nog and I bare my double fangs at her. Whatever
battle move she’s about to unleash, I’ll be ready. I’ve taken
on sabrevipes with my bare hands. I can take
down this miniature alien.
But instead of attacking me, she cowers, a terrified sob
escaping her.
I frown at her, breaking my battle stance. “I can see you’re afraid,” I start, choosing my
words carefully. She reminds me of so many of our people…from before. When they were
all screaming and begging for their lives as The Rades wiped them out one by
one. I squeeze my eyes shut, overwhelmed by the
reminder.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
I blink my eyes open just in time to see her attempting to dart
past me, her bare feet slapping the tile.
Lightning quick, I strike out and tangle my fist in her hair
before she can get too far. A
bone-rattling scream rips from her tiny body. She wiggles
and squirms. Her claws, softer and more brittle than mine,
rake across my cheek as she tries to free herself. She doesn’t
break the surface but the sting remains. I grab her
by her tiny arms and push her against the nearest door. Draven’s
wild eyes watch the show from beyond the glass. When I
glower at him, he disappears from my sight.
“Halt,” I order, my chest heaving from exertion.
Her throat bobs as she swallows. “Just kill
me,” she says, her voice wobbling. “I’d rather
be dead than be trapped in some coffin.”
I cock my nog to the side and study her lips. Once, Jareth ate a new species of flatshrooms
Galen discovered and had a violent reaction. His lips
swelled up like this untamed one’s. But his were
never so intriguing. We jested at his expense
until Avrell administered a treatment to heal him.
But these lips?
These are a visual snare, and I am caught.
She licks them.
Heat, fast like the flash of a magnastrike in a geostorm,
strikes my lower belly. Like ultraviolet poisoning
entering my bloodstream when I’ve spent one too many solars stealing extra
seconds in the sun, it awakens my nerves as it travels to my cock. So many times I’ve stroked myself to release
just to find a tiny inkling of pleasure in my bleak world. So many times.
And now, dark, forbidden thoughts of pleasuring myself in other
ways begin to take root inside my mind.
As if sensing my physiological reaction to her, Aria licks her
lips again. Her lids grow heavy and she gives me a sweet
smile. A smile I want to taste.
A low rumbling builds in my throat.
Possessive and animalistic.
Mine.
