Chapter 14

Aymee

No one told me that this could be or would be this exciting and satisfying. The tensions, the build-up, the out-and-out desire, the ecstatic release . . . and then having it all build back up again.

Niklas and I are touching each other everywhere and sweating into each other and pushing into each other. I’ve never been in a more beautiful jail cell. The beginning, the end, the Centreale’s latest lurching hurl—none of it matters. All that matters is this, right here. Me, the most-wanted criminal on Choryn, and Niklas Arca, the saboteur of his own ship.

Yet we fit together and move together and pleasure together perfectly.

I look up into Niklas Arca’s gorgeous face, which is streaked with sweat and covered in rough stubble, and his yellow-gold eyes have turned into flaming orbs. His blond hair has come loose from the tie-back and is framing his face, making him look less like a Big World Terran and more like a fantasy artwork I saw once in a traveling museum show back on Choryn.

Back then I hadn’t thought that creatures that idealized, that sensual, could exist, and I hadn’t known that anything at all like the way I’m feeling, like what I’m experiencing, did exist. You can’t be prepared for something like this.

At least, I couldn’t. I wasn’t. I’m not.

Our tempo speeds up. Something has accumulated inside both of us, and I sense his accumulation even more than my own. I grab on to the tight muscles on his arms and hang on, feeling my own disintegration as it nears.

“Aymee!” he says as his eyes close then open again. He pushes deep, deep inside me, and I wonder why anyone ever said this would hurt. Only at first, and only just that slight bit. The rest has been bliss itself.

I’m just about to say something, although it was hardly a word, when I’m overtaken by an unstoppable quaking that shakes me loose from anything so ordinary as words.

Then I hear a deep growl coming from Arca’s chest, and then he’s yelling into the pillow beside my head, tamping down the huge sound I imagine he’d make if we weren’t locked up in a cell together but were instead somewhere else entirely. Like maybe on one of the romantic resort moons in the Limar System.

His big body finally collapses onto mine, and I put my arms around his broad back and hold him, hoping he’ll never move away.

Hoping that being wanted for crimes I never committed and would never commit is just a bad dream I’m having. And I’ll wake up and see that this—being together with Niklas Arca—is the truth and that Lasson, the crimes, the sabotage, that all of that is just the residue of a nightmare.

Niklas puts his arm around my waist and turns us over onto our sides.

“I can’t lie on top of you forever,” he says, his eyes a glowing yellow topaz now.

“You could,” I say. I wish he had. But he is still inside me.
