3013: STOWAWAY (3013: The Series) (11 page)

He undressed her next, unzipping her dress before lifting it up over her head and letting it drop on top of the pile of clothes on the cockpit floor. Only when they were both naked did he turn her around to face him, dipping his head to brush a slow, lingering kiss across her lips.

“I love you,” he murmured, and her heart sang with joy at the words.

“And I love you, so much. Make love to me, Trevar. Claim me again.”

He growled and kissed her again, drawing her down with him as he sank back into his chair. Somehow they found a way to fit together, her thighs straddling his and her hands gripping the back of the chair. His cock was ramrod hard and pressed against her wet folds, inches from where they both needed him to be. His kisses grew hotter and more insistent, his tongue sweeping into her mouth to tangle with hers as he caressed her everywhere his hands could reach. There was a fierce intensity to his lovemaking, as though every touch and whisper was forging a bond between them, one that would be strong enough to withstand whatever trials came their way.

“I’ll never let you go, Sonja. No one is going to take you from us.”

Trevar felt as though there was a star’s worth of raw energy surging through his veins. He was burning with need, his dick hard enough to drill through the hull plating, and every time he looked at the new tattoo on his chosen’s face, he wanted to shout in triumph. She was his, and she loved him. It was like the color had faded out of his world a bit at a time, and he hadn’t even noticed until Sonja had waltzed into their lives and brought a rainbow of glorious hues with her.

He never wanted to lose this feeling again.

Reaching between them, he positioned himself at the entrance to her sweet cunt, never once breaking their kiss. She moved with him, raising up and then lowering herself back down slowly so that his cock slid into her wet heat an inch at a time. He didn’t breathe again until he was all the way inside her. He groped blindly for the chair controls, looking for the one that reclined the seat back. When he found it, he pushed the toggle too hard and half a second later found himself staring at the cockpit ceiling with a pair of startled blue eyes blinking down at him.

“Oops,” he gave her a lopsided grin.

“Please tell me you can fly this ship better than you can operate that chair.”

There are a great many things I can do well, kitten, but my second greatest talent is as a pilot.”

Her eyes glittered with barely repressed laughter as she leaned down to kiss him. Her hair fell around them in a curtain of dark silk, blocking out the world as she flexed her inner walls around his cock and asked him slyly, “So what’s your greatest talent?”

“Allow me to demonstrate.” He set his hands on her hips and lifted her a few inches in the air, holding her there despite her attempts to pull herself back down onto his cock. Her lower lip popped out in a playful pout and he nipped at it as he drove himself upward until he could go no deeper. When he lowered his hips he brought her down with him, the two of them locked together. She rolled her hips and began to ride him, slowly at first, but gradually increasing her pace as the fire between them grew. All the while he watched her face, the sight of her tattoo adding fuel to the flames already raging inside him.

She lifted her lips from his to smile at him and then whispered something he never imagined he’d hear. “You have my permission to read me, Trevar. All of it. Every emotion. I want you to know how you make me feel.”

With a faint nod, he dropped the walls that he kept around his mind and was instantly caught up in a tempest of emotions. There was worry, and even fear,
but above all else Sonja’s heart was full of love and happiness. It echoed everything that was in his own heart, binding them together on a level he had never known.

Sonja watched his face as he took in her emotions, saw the way it affected him and felt the way his body responded. He lifted his head and kissed her hard, his body
surging up in a thrust that lifted clear of the chair and left her with nothing to hang onto but him. Overcome by love and need, the two of them made love in a frenzied dance of give and take, both of them lost to everything but each other and the pleasure of the moment.

In the end, it was Trevar who lost control first, groaning her name as he emptied himself into her womb. As he drove himself into her last time it was enough to send her hurtling into her own release, and she soared high enough to reach ou
t and touch the stars. When she returned to her senses it was to find herself slumped over him, skin to skin and with the salty sting of tears in her eyes.

“That was awe inspiring.” he murmured, brushing a kiss to the corner of her mouth.

“That, was us.”

She let herself drift in a contented fog, but shortly her wrist unit buzzed. When she didn’t answer, another buzz sounded, this one from Trevar’s unit, which was buried in the pile of clothes on the floor right along with hers. Finally, Deke’s voice came over the cockpit comms.

“Sorry to interrupt, but dinner’s ready. Get dressed and get down here or it’s going to get cold.”

Trevar cocked a brow at her. “Shall we go tell Deke he got hitched while he was cooking dinner? The expression on his face is going to be priceless.”

It took a moment for his comment to sink in. “Wait. What? Deke doesn’t know?”

“Fuck
, no. He has no idea I ever qualified to claim a chosen. Your new decoration is going to be a hell of a shock for him.”

“You’re going to be a handful, you know that, right?”

“So are you, kitten. So are you.”

CHAPTER ELEVEN

Deke was putting the last platter of food down on the counter when the two of them walked through the door. Trevar came in first, wearing a shit-eating grin that told him that the older man was up to something. Judging how big the grin was, Deke reckoned they were in a g
reat deal of trouble. It didn’t matter that they were currently alone in the middle of an interstellar jump. Trevar Storm had a talent for finding mischief anytime and anywhere.

“What have you—fuck me. Is that what I think it is?” Deke’s thoughts slammed into each other at light speed, mangling each other beyond recognition in the process. Sonja, eyes glowing, clothing askew and hair tousled, was standing beside Trevar with a dazzling smile and a new tattoo on her face.

“There is no way a fake tattoo is going to fool anyone for very long,” he said, as at least one train of thought managed to work itself out of the wreckage inside his head. Even as he said it, Deke suspected that the mark wasn’t a counterfeit. He just couldn’t fathom how the fuck Trevar could have gotten his hands on a marking device. However it happened, it couldn’t have been legal. There was no way the Alliance would give him one on
purpose
.

“It’s real. I have no idea how the Alliance is going to feel about me claiming her with an unsanctioned partner, but this is the only plan I had. I think it’s what they used to call a ‘Hail Mary’ play.”

“You’ve got breeding rights,” Deke said, still trying to wrap his head around this new twist.

“I think you broke his brain, Trevar,” Sonja said and crossed the room to wrap her arms around him, squeezing him tight. “It’s real. Trevar claimed me. You’re both my bonded now.”

Suddenly it didn’t matter how it had happened, or why. It only mattered that it had. “You’re ours,” he said, and when she nodded happily he did the only thing he could think of. He kissed her. She wrapped herself around him like a cat, a contented sigh rising from her throat as she parted her lips and kissed him back.

She was theirs. Claimed and marked for the whole world to see. It was hard to believe, but the proof was in his arms. When he lifted his head to breathe, she bounced up and down on the balls of her feet again. “Hi, bonded.”

“Hello, my chosen,” he smiled down at her, hardly able to speak past the lump in his throat.

“You know, I think this calls for a celebration. By any chance did you get that new holo-room program ready, Deke?”

“I put the finishing touches on it this morning.”

“Perfect, then I say we grab dinner, a bottle of the good stuff, and our chosen, and head for the holo-room. It’s time to be merry, for who knows what tomorrow may bring.”

“Shit. He’s waxing poetic. That’s never a good sign,” Deke muttered, already gathering up their dinner. Fortunately, it was nothing more complicated than toasted sandwiches and a small assortment of fruits and vegetables he’d acquired during the day’s shopping at the station. They could make a sort of picnic of the meal.

“Poetry is bad?” Sonja asked as she helped him with the plates.

“It usually means I am going to wake up with a vicious hangover and a list of regrets.”

“Not my fault you can’t hold your liquor,” Trevar said, his voice slightly muffled because he was reaching far into the back of one of the galley’s cabinets. “Aha! I knew there was another bottle around here somewhere.”

“Shit, you found it.”

“Damn right I found it. Did you think hiding it with the flour and sugar was really going work?” Trevar reappeared brandishing the last bottle of Tarin fire brew, one of several acquired on a run to the Hades outpost on Tartarus several months back. The stuff was like liquid lightning, strong enough to knock even a Krytos on their ass. It was looking to be a hell of a night.

Sonja didn’t have any idea what was in the oddly shaped bottle, and she really didn’t care. This was the best day of her life, and she was going to enjoy herself. She knew it was likely only the lower gravity, but she could have sworn she was floating on air as she left the galley and made her way to the holo-room that had been converted to her bedroom for the trip. As she waited for the others to catch up, it dawned on her that her stay on the
Arca
wouldn’t end after this trip. At least, it didn’t have to. She could stay out here among the stars forever.

“Now we just need to get the Alliance to go along with this insanity,” she muttered under her breath.

“Don’t go borrowing trouble, kitten. Tonight is a celebration. Tomorrow we’ll worry about the future.” Trevar walked up behind her and wrapped an arm around her waist, drawing her back into the solid comfort of his body.

Deke arrived seconds later, balancing his load in one hand as he tapped a code into the keypad. “Ship, run program Sonja’s Room Two.”

“When did you have time to do this?” she asked, eager to see what new vista waited for her behind the door.

“I finished up the program while you were overhauling Tic and Toc,” Deke said as the door slid open.

“You outdid yourself on this one,” Trevar’s voice was tinged with awe, and Sonja had to agree. The entire space was filled with cool blue light, and the air flowing into the corridor was almost chilly. Her men gestured for her to go in first, and she stepped through the doorway into another world.

She was standing in the middle of a cavern with smooth, black stones beneath her feet and a dome of blue-white, translucent ice arched overhead. A stream flowed through the middle of the space, dropping several times to form miniature waterfalls along its path. Fog rose up from the water and shrouded much of the floor. A tiny stone bridge arched over the stream, leading to a steam covered pool carved into the rocky floor. A few feet away was a bed piled high with exotic furs, and several pieces of furniture that were hewn out of the ice and draped in more of the furs.

“Where is this? Is this a real place? If it is, please take me there one day.”

“It’s a very real place, in the D’aire home system. We’ll show it to you one day. Of course, the real thing doesn’t have a bedroom in the middle of it, but it is incredibly beautiful there.”

“Oh yeah, beautiful…and fucking cold! I nearly froze my ass off on that little excursion. Trust me, kitten, there are a thousand breathtaking places to visit in the galaxy. Let’s start with the ones that don’t come with a high risk of frostbite, okay?”

“Where’s your sense of adventure?” she quipped, crossing the smooth stone floor to lay out their meal on the hewn stone table.

“I hear he used to have one, when he was younger. I guess his age is finally—ow!” Deke yelped as a Trevar cuffed him in the back of the head.

“Don’t insult the man who claimed our woman for us…or I’ll keep her to myself.”

Sonja ignored their banter, crossing over the arched bridge to check out the steam shrouded pool on the other side. A quick test with her finger confirmed her suspicions, and she gleefully shed her clothing and shoes before stepping into the luxurious heat of the hot spring.

They stopped arguing the second she dropped her dress to the ground, and before she was completely submerged both of them had come over to join her, stripping off their clothes as they went. She enjoyed their antics, laughing at their half-hearted attempts to slow each other down. In the end it was a tie, with both men claiming a side and laying a kiss on her cheeks at the same time.

Trevar lifted her onto Deke’s lap, turning her sideways so that her legs draped over his thighs while Deke’s arms went around her waist, holding her in place. Both men were stroking her beneath the water, and she couldn’t keep her hands off of them either. Not that she even tried. She had been claimed by two handsome, amazing men, and she wanted to enjoy every second of their celebration.

It didn’t take long for gentle caresses to lead to something more, and soon Sonja was the focus of both men’s complete attention. Deke’s hands were on her breasts, teasing and toying with her nipples until every flick of his fingers was sending shimmers of lust straight to her clit. He would kiss his way from her shoulder to her ear, and then pause to nuzzle the new mark on her face before starting the whole process over again.

Trevar’s hands weren’t idle either. He had her legs spread and was slowly stroking every inch of skin from her clit to the rosette of her ass. She was trembling despite the heat of the water, deliciously close to an orgasm that neither man was willing to give her.

“Please?” she begged at last, and both men chuckled.

“Not yet, kitten. We want you half out of your mind when we take you to bed and claim you properly.” He traced his fingertip around her back hole and a wash of dark pleasure came over her. They were going to take her together. Both of them would be inside her at once, sharing her in the ultimate act of intimacy.

“I think she likes that idea,” Deke said, lifting his mouth from her neck to kiss her deeply. Their tongues dueled, lips mated as Trevar began working his fingers back toward her clit in leisurely circles. She moaned in answer, bucking her hips against Trevar’s hand in a desperate plea for urgency.

Instead, he withdrew his touch completely, leaving Sonja’s clit throbbing and her pulse pounding in her ears. “Keep her busy for a few minutes, will you? I just remembered I need to grab something from my quarters.”

She tore her mouth from Deke’s. “You’re
leaving
? But we…” she gestured around them, her hands sending droplets of water and clouds of steam flying in all directions.

“I’ll be right back. Don’t start without me.”

“I make no promises,” Deke said, laughing as Trevar left the warmth of the pool and jogged to the door, cursing the cooler air every step of the way. If Trevar was fool enough to leave their beautiful chosen alone, even for a few minutes, then it was all the better for him.

“He left!” Sonja sputtered.

“Which means I get a few minutes alone with my chosen.” Deke still couldn’t quite believe that’s what she was to them now, their chosen. A woman who loved them both without reservation, filling a void that neither of them would even admit they had. She was a gift from the universe that he would be forever grateful for.

“I love you,” she said, stroking a wet hand across his cheek.

“And now I can make good on my promise to love you until the stars fall.” His tugged her deeper into his arms and kissed her, letting her scent and flavor and the feel of her skin on his brand themselves into his memory.

“I’m going to hold you to that,” she murmured against his mouth. The soft curves of her body brushed against hers as she floated in his embrace. His dick bumped against the back of her thighs, and he drew her down on top of it deliberately, biting back a groan as she parted her thighs enough to let his cock slide between them.

“I don’t feel like waiting.”

“Neither do I.”

That was all he needed to hear. Deke turned her so she was facing away from him. He pressed a hand between her legs, spreading them wider, and she raised her body a few inches out of the water so he could find her entrance. She was slick and ready for him, and the moment he breached her opening she took control, lowering herself onto his shaft with an eager moan.

“I love listening to your pleasure, sweetheart. I’m never going to grow tired of hearing your sweet moans and sighs when we fuck you.”

She moaned again, her eyes half closed and her face flushed with heat and need. Her channel was slick and tight, her inner muscles flexing around his cock until he was damned near ready to come. He toyed with her clit until she was trembling in his arms, pushing her to the brink of her control. “Fuck me, Deke. I need you to
move
!”

“How many times do we have to tell you, sweetheart? You are not the one in charge,” he said, biting back a peal of laughter as she snarled in frustration and wriggled in his lap, making them both even more aroused. Being buried deep in her glorious body was the best feeling in the worlds, and the knowledge that he would be able to experience it for the rest of his life that was fucking amazing.

He worked her clitoris between his fingers, pinching just hard enough to make her quiver. Her thighs tensed and her back arched as another low, throaty moan rose up from her throat.

“Yes
, just like that,” she purred as he slid a hand between them and started pressing against the rosette of her ass. The tip of one finger slid inside and she gasped, her inner walls gripping him harder now.

“I can’t wait until I have my cock in your pussy
and Trevar is fucking your ass at the same time. It’s going to be perfect. That first night we had sex, I promised you that we’d make you feel so good you’d never want to leave the ship. Tonight, we’re going to make sure you never want to leave us.”

“That’s never going to happen,” she vowed, riding his fingers with rising urgency as he finally gave her what she needed. He bounced her on his lap, sending waves of water splashing onto the rocks as he took his hand from between them and wrapped it around her waist before plucking and stroking her clit until she threw back her head and screamed his name as she came.

Trevar heard Sonja’s cries before he even got the door open, and he knew they hadn’t waited for him. Not that he really had expected them to. There were a few things they needed for tonight, though, which was why he’d left. He’d made one extra stop at the station today, purchasing a few things he had hoped they’d get to use. He glanced down at the vial of lubricant and the vibrator he’d picked out and grinned. It was a good thing he believed in being prepared.
