Chapter Eight

Corso centered himself over Benedetta’s quivering flesh where the silvery whorls of the qva’avaq charted the path of her deepest pleasure. He paused to stare down into her heavy-lidded eyes. “They say l’auraly are untouched until they are given to a companion. Virgins.” He stumbled over the outdated word.

She blinked. “Technically, perhaps. But after this, I would say, in all practical ways, no. I am most definitely touched.”

A surge of satisfaction swept through him. His raging erection was in no way diminished, and yet the pleased glow within him was almost post-coital in its power.

But in its backwash, a disturbing thought occurred; had he lessened her value by touching her? The mercenary shouldn’t sample his own wares.

That thought was upended with violent negation. He was not a slaver and she was not merchandise, even though such a financial transaction at least had a certain clarity. No, like the intricate, honed facets of her keying crystal sealed in its protective barrier, this situation seemed pretty and innocuous…and had hidden teeth.

Benedetta settled her hands over his hips with a sigh. “Let go,” she whispered, repeating his words back to him. “I want it. You want it.” Her fingers sank into his haunches with irresistible strength.

He could no more withstand her than the Asphodel could deny the commands keyed into the nav that brought the ship from the cold, empty quiet of space into the violence of a fiery descent. And he was every bit as vulnerable in this fated course.

He sank downward, pulled into the circle of her arms, and nestled the seeking apex of his erection into her warmth. She was so tight around him, and her eyes closed as she adjusted to his presence, but the slick damp eased his way.

When he was fully immersed, he kissed her brow until her eyes opened. In the viewport behind her, the roll of the Asphodel brought the planet in sight again and the light bounced in her citrine eyes. The sight pierced him. She was doing this to save her planet, and he… Never mind that she was the born and bred whore, he was the one taking advantage of her.

Her inner muscles clasped around him, an intimate, invisible warning. “Where are you going, Captain?”

Slowly, he withdrew.

Maybe he had some intent of retroactive honor, but the hot, wet suck of her delta sabotaged him, and with a groan he plunged back in. She arched up, welcoming the intrusion of his body with a gasp. She skimmed her silvery hands up his chest and circled his nipples. He bucked at the erotic tingle, and she laughed.

At that low, husky sound of delight, he lost it. He stroked her inside and out, using every trick he knew and a few he made up on the spot, watching her unique reactions, responding to her sighs and tightening muscles. Maybe she’d been bred and trained to be the perfect lover, but he was her first lover, and he’d be tangled and shredded before he let her ever forget this moment.
