Free Creature Worlds: Solar Slick by Juliet Cardin

while he ravished me from behind. I then pictured myself upon my knees before him, taking one huge green cock deep into my throat while my hand slid up and down the other one. And then, standing, him pressing me against the wall, using his strength to lift me up, only to slide me back down unhurriedly, impaling me on his shafts. I wanted him to come at me with undisciplined lust. Wanted him to make me squirm and cry out while he teased me with achingly sweet tenderness.
    He gripped my hands suddenly, bringing them up over my head, snapping me back into the moment—this moment—as he showed me who was master. His yellow eyes glittered dangerously and he opened his mouth to reveal his fangs. Would he bite me? Sink his teeth into my neck as he pushed deep inside my body, possessing me, bringing me both pain and pleasure?
    “Please,” I cried, craving him, willing to submit to his every desire.
    “You are mine,” his hips drove forward, accenting his words.
    “Yes!” I admitted. I was his, body and soul. He filled me completely, making me aware of nothing else but him and his power, his ultimate control. His teeth sank into my bared throat, accepting my valiant offer. I no longer feared his bite, the sharp pain was but a memory now replaced with a need to bond, to be as close to him as possible.
    Still deep within me, he lifted his head and grinned, displaying his fangs dripping with my blood. I shivered, slightly afraid at the sight. But too, I found myself turned on. I watched; mesmerized as his tongue flicked out to lick at the droplets of blood, all the while he thrust into me.
    He shifted his lower body until he was sitting up on his knees between my legs. Putting his hands under my back he lifted me to sit in his lap. Once repositioned, he again thrust deep inside of me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and held on tightly while he gripped my ass and plunged into me at mind-blowing speed. I couldn’t hold on, not a second longer. My eyes squeezed shut and my fingers gripped his shoulders as I surrendered, screaming out my release. I was only faintly aware of Tigg’s own holler as we rode the wave of ecstasy together.
    Later, as we lay on the bed, exhausted, side-by-side, Tigg couldn’t help but chuckle. “You were right, my lovely Minka. We did put on quite a show.
    We landed in Eithur soon after. I struggled into my clothes again while Tigg turned off the autopilot and resumed control of the ship. Our landing place was a clearing in a forested area not far from the large inn we spotted upon arrival.
    “King Ranox was right. This is a big place,” Tigg said. “Hopefully they’ll have some work available.”
    “How can they refuse when you present them with a request from their king?” I was being sarcastic, yet Tigg nodded his head in agreement.
    “Perhaps there’ll be a room available for us as well.”
    “If so then let’s hope it goes with the job since we don’t have any money.”
    Tigg grilled me with a look. “I know we don’t. And I know the whole reason we’re in this mess is because of me.” He recovered his knife from where he’d stashed it and strapped it onto his leg while I watched him in stunned silence.
    “Why would you say that? You know all of this is my fault.” I tried to catch his gaze but he refused to look at me.
    “I’m the one who mated with you. I took you against your will and now you’re paying the price.”
    I laughed with no real mirth. “I beg to differ. I thought I was quite willing.”
    “For the sex, yes. For the baby, no,” Tigg reminded me. He was right. I had been angry with him for impregnating me. But that was behind us now. Now I was in love with him, couldn’t picture my life without him.
    I snatched his hand and forced him to look at me. “Don’t you know I’m in love with you, you great green fool?” I batted my eyelashes until he took me into his arms in surrender.
    “I love you too, spider girl,” he said, his lips pressed against my
