Rescuing Rory (13 page)
Both of them were struggling for breath. More than that, they were pushing toward completion. With each stroke, his thick cock dragged across the sensitive nerve endings in her slick channel, driving her closer to orgasm. He shoved one hand under her ass and levered her up, driving hard.
“Touch your breasts,” he demanded.
She didn’t even think of denying him. She needed to touch herself. Her breasts ached and she moaned when she covered them with her hands. Kal swore and fucked her harder.
Rory pinched her nipples, stimulating the tight nubs, even as she wished it were Kal touching her. Then she slid one hand down her stomach and between her legs.
“So fucking hot,” Kal groaned.
It took one touch and the tension inside her burst into flames, spreading throughout her entire body. She shook and shivered as she came. Kal swore and then yelled as she spasmed around his cock and pushed him over the edge. He continued to thrust until both of them were exhausted.
Kal rolled off her and immediately pulled her into his arms. He kissed her damp forehead. “It keeps getting better.”
She snuggled against his chest, resting her head over his heart. “It does.”
It took several minutes for both of them to regain their breath. Kal stroked his hand over her back and shoulders. She loved the way he constantly touched her even when they weren’t having sex.
“We found Jasper Freeman. Or at least I think we have. Won’t know until we get there.”
Rory shoved herself upright and stared down at him. “That’s wonderful news.”
“Yeah, it is.” Kal drew her back down and cuddled her once again.
“You don’t want to get too excited.” Rory realized they’d probably been through this many times before only to be disappointed.
“He might not even be the one who took Abigail,” Kal pointed out.
“But he could be.” Rory knew how important it was to have hope. “How long will it take us to get there?”
Kal played with her hair, smoothing it away from her face. “It will take us about three to four weeks to get to Eden. We’ll be stopping at a supply planet on the way.”
Rory wanted to see him smile again so she teased his chest with her fingers. “And whatever will we do to pass the time until we get there.”
Kal grabbed her fingers and flattened her hand on his chest. “Be good. I planned to feed you first and you blew my good intentions to hell.” He kissed her and rolled out of bed. She admired his naked form as he padded over to the desk and grabbed the tray of food. “It’s not as warm as it was but it’s edible.”
“Sounds good.” She sat up and pulled the sheet over her lap. Kal deposited the tray there and sat back down next to her.
“Thank you.” He cupped her face in his large hand and kissed her. Her heart clenched and melted at his touch. “You’ve given me hope. You’ve given all of us hope.”
She touched the side of his beloved face. “Thank you for rescuing me.”
“I’m not sure who rescued who.” Kal kissed her. It was a sweet kiss. One filled with hope and promise.
“Now you eat.” He handed her the fork, making her smile.
“No spoon this time?” she teased.
“I have it from good authority that you can do plenty of damage with a spoon.” His solemn reply made her laugh.
“I can indeed. But you’re safe with me.”
About N.J. Walters
Once upon a time N.J. had the idea that she would like to quit her job at the bookstore, sell everything she owned, leave her hometown, and write romance novels in a place where no one knew her. And she did. Two years later, she went back to the bookstore and her hometown and settled in for another seven years.
One day she gave notice at her job on a Friday morning. On Sunday afternoon, she received a tentative acceptance for her first erotic romance novel, Annabelle Lee, and life would never be the same.
N.J. has always been a voracious reader, and now she spends her days writing novels of her own. Vampires, werewolves, dragons, time-travelers, seductive handymen, and next-door neighbors with smoldering good looks—all vie for her attention. It’s a tough life, but someone’s got to live it.
N.J. welcomes comments from readers. You can find her website and email addresses on her
