Catching Alicka Page 8

  “This is great. What’s it called?” she asked her mate since she’d just pointed at a picture of it to order it.

  “Cocoloo. It’s a favorite among Xander’s patrons.”

  “It’s a favorite of mine now, as well. Let me taste yours.” His was a red-colored drink in a large mug. She wanted to experience everything she could.

  Slanon slid it over to her. She sniffed it and then lifted the mug to her lips. A slightly bitter flavor washed over her taste buds, followed by fiery heat. His big hand reached out and grabbed the mug as she started choking. Slanon’s free hand rubbed circles over her back while she tried to catch her breath. A few minutes later, she looked up to see Slanon biting back a laugh while Tor and Xander were openly laughing at her.

  Prince Thavon walked up to them and sat close to Xander. “What did I just miss?”

  “Alicka trying some drocz.” Xander started laughing again. Tears were running down his cheeks. “Sh…She’s still red-cheeked.”

  Her hands flew to her cheeks. They did seem a touch hot. She scowled at Slanon. “Why didn’t you forewarn me? How red are my cheeks?”

  After removing her hands from her face, he kissed her cheeks. “You’re just a little red, sweetling. I didn’t forewarn you because it’s not hot to me. Xander can taste the heat and likes it. Tor doesn’t like it at all. I’m sorry drocz lit you up like that. We learned something new about you tonight. Now I want to learn how well you cut free on the dance floor.”

  To cool her mouth down, Alicka took a sip of her icy drink and then decided to take another one. She scowled at Xander before taking Slanon’s hand and letting him lead her through the crowd and onto the dance floor. Her brother-in-law’s apology floated to her, but his voice was still filled with humor. She’d forgive him in due time.

  Once on the floor, it didn’t take her long to let the music sink into her soul. She let the beat guide her body. With a sensually teasing air, she danced around her sweet giant. He watched her with an intensity that had desire singing through her veins.

  A growl rumbled from his chest right before he wrapped his arms around her. With stunningly smooth moves, he danced them around the floor.

  Every chance he got, he whispered all the naughty things he wanted to do to her into her ear. She shivered when he’d lick her earring and press his hard erection into her abdomen. At first she was shy about dirty dancing in a crowd, but a look around ended that feeling. Most of the beings on the floor were doing the same thing.

  They didn’t leave the dance floor until it became so packed with people that they could barely move. She didn’t mind, though because she was in severe need of a drink and a minute to catch her breath. Plus, she loved to people watch.

  Once Alicka was seated next to Slanon, she looked around as she drank her cocoloo. The colored lights changed to blue, casting the light hue all over the people around the bar. She liked the way the club was gently lit by soft white lights as well as a touch of lighting that changed colors every fifteen minutes or so. The blue hue slowly swept the whole room. Seeing them all drenched in different colors was interesting. Slanon smiled and she grinned at the sight of his blue teeth.

  “What’s so funny?”

  “Your teeth are blue.”

  He looked at her teeth and then around at them all. “I guess we do look a little strange, but that lighting makes everyone seem more the same.”

  “You nailed it, brother. That’s exactly why I have those roving color-changing lights. Plus, it’s fun to watch people change with each color that washes over them,” Xander said and then grinned a blue smile.

  Tor spotted a couple of massive men and excused himself to go talk to them. The men practically screamed “don’t fuck with me.”

  Nodding her head to the beat coming from a sound system that seemed to come from all over the club, Alicka looked around. They were on a raised section of the floor. It was an excellent spot for an owner to watch over everything happening in the club. Like many other seating areas, they were in a C-cushioned lounge with a low table. When a male walked by, staring at her and swishing his tail, she looked down to see that the deep-plunging top of her dress was a little too separated. She tugged the sides of the silky material together and decided to have a talk with Slanon about his choice of public clothing for her.

  Now that she was more decent, she continued to peruse the club. Besides the lounge areas, there were places with two couches facing each other, tables with chairs, and a few alcoves for a bit of privacy. Since those alcoves were all guarded, she guessed they were protected areas a being had to reserve and pay for.

  A six-armed, dark-brown male stumbled into a four-armed blue male and began shouting at him. It looked like the blue male was returning to his table at the time of the collision.

  Xander and Tor started betting on the Riproans to handle the situation before Xander’s men had to step in.

  Slanon leaned into her. “The blue males with four arms are Riproans. They are a loyal and proud race. The dark-brown male with six arms is a Gopin. They are sneaky and usually passive-aggressive.”

  Alicka could see Slanon’s men closing in on the Riproans and Gopin. The Riproan who’d been bumped roughly set down the drinks he’d been carrying and his three blue buddies all stood and stared the Gopin down. Within a moment, the Gopin ducked his head and walked away.

  “Riproans always travel in a group so they can handle almost anything that comes their way.”

  She looked up at her mate. “You sound like you admire them.”

  “I do. We all do here on VisOrrenta. They are good people to have on your side, and as you just saw, they handle things as peacefully as they can. Make no mistake, though, if that Gopin had insisted on a fight, one of them could easily have taken him out.”

  The Riproan males continued to stare at the Gopin until he was across the room, and then they all sat back down and continued on as if nothing had happened. They were interesting to look at with their long, black hair and muscled chests and arms.

  All four of the bluish males were wearing arm bands that made their muscles stand out. No wonder the Gopin left so quickly. That brown male may have had six arms, but they were nowhere near as powerful as the Riproans’ four arms were.

  A growl came from her side and she looked up into Slanon’s slightly glowing eyes. “Stop looking at them.”

  Heat rushed to her cheeks. “I’m sorry. I just haven’t seen anyone like them before and they stand out because there are four of them at the table.”

  “Four half-naked males, you mean?”

  Her gaze cut down to her hands. “I’m not attracted to them. It’s just that on Earth it’s illegal to be in public half-dressed. It’s a strange sight for me.” She looked up into his eyes. “I’m truthfully only attracted to you, Slanon.”

  Thavon reached over and pushed Slanon’s shoulder. “Let her be, Slanon. We can all smell her sorrow and your jealousy. Get a grip, you’re her mate and everyone knows it.”

  “Besides, Riproans only go around half-dressed because they have naturally hot skin,” Xander added to the conversation.

  Thavon nudged Xander. “Look, Tayar and Cooli just came in.”

  Alicka glanced at the doorway and saw two pretty orange females with thick black hair walking in with three orange males. Their three eyes searched the crowd. They spotted Xander and Thavon and then walked right up to them.

  One of the females purred and licked her full lips. “Care to dance, Prince Thavon, my darling?”

  “Yes, Tayar, my lovely princess.” Thavon gestured to Alicka. “Alicka is now mated to Slanon. Alicka I’d like you to meet Princess Tayar and her sister Princess Cooli. Tayar, Cooli, this is Alicka.”

  They both turned light-green eyes on her. The eye in the center was slightly higher and seemed to stare through her. Alicka smiled and nodded. “It’s nice to meet you.”

  “And you as well, Alicka.” Tayar inhaled and cut her gaze to Slanon. She shook her head and tsked. “You’ve
been a bad boy. She should take you home, bind you, and flog you. Then after you’ve repented, she should ride you good and hard.” With that said, Tayar took Thavon’s hand and led him to the dance floor.

  Cooli held her hand out to Xander and winked at him. He let her lead him to floor as well.

  Once again, her curiosity took over. “Where are they from? They’re beautiful.”

  Slanon took her hand and kissed it. “They’re from Percima 63. Tayar is right. I’m sorry I let my possessive side rule me, since the males didn’t do anything wrong and you were just fascinated with a new species.”

  “I’m sorry I didn’t stop looking at them sooner.” Alicka reached up and pulled Slanon’s head down to hers. She kissed him soundly on the mouth. It didn’t take long for him to take over. The passion pouring from him ignited her own.

  Slanon pulled her into his lap and caressed her body as he explored her mouth with an expert tongue. Desire flowed through her and pooled in her pelvis.

  The feel of someone sitting on the cushions next to them had her pulling back. Tor sat next to them. His icy gaze was scanning the crowd.

  “Let’s save this moment for the house. We won’t stay much longer,” Slanon whispered into her ear.

  She shivered when he licked her earring. Trying to cool her ardor, she started watching the dancers. Thavon and Xander were getting down with their lovely partners. Both men never missed a beat. Tayar and Cooli were just as fluid on their feet and they all seemed to know each other very well.

  “How long have they all known each other?” Alicka nodded in the direction of Xander and Thavon.

  “For years. When Tayar and Cooli come here to shop, they almost always hunt down Xander and Thavon. It’s a good source of relief for all of them.”

  Alicka sucked in a sharp breath and looked up at Slanon. “They have sex?”

  Rich laugher came from Tor and Slanon. “Of course they do, sweetling.”

  Looking at the females’ guards, she asked, “What about the men that came in with them?” Those guys didn’t look laid-back at all.

  “They are the princesses’ personal guards. They don’t let the females get to far away and they don’t allow them to pick up just any guy. Thavon and Xander have been approved by the Percima 63 king.”

  “That’s interesting and makes me feel better. I was afraid the guards were going to kill Xander and Thavon for getting so touchy with their females.”

  “Speaking of touchy, I need to get you alone, sweetling.” Slanon turned to Tor. “We’re going to head out. Will you tell the others we’ve gone home?”

  Tor grunted as the big men he’d been talking to earlier came over and took a seat. “Yes, I’ll let them know. Be safe.”

  “You, too.” Slanon stood with her still in his arms and slowly slid her down his body. Taking her hand, he led her away from the table and out the club’s door.

  A male approached at Slanon’s wave. “I need a ride, Alson.”

  “Right away, Mr. Terrisic.” Alson pushed a button on his wrist-comm and, in a minute, a hovercraft pulled up in front of them. As they climbed into the backseat of the cushy vehicle, she was seeing the benefits to having a brother-in-law that owned a high-end nightclub.

  The second they took off, Slanon started kissing her with enough passion to cause moisture to dampen her inner thighs. The fire in her continually built the whole ride home. By the time Slanon helped her out of the hovercraft, she was flushed with desire and readily let him lead the way to any fuckable surface.

  Moons, I love everything about him.

  Chapter Nine

  Just as Alicka’s foot touched the bottom step leading to their tree house, a drop of rain landed on her nose. She squealed when raindrops started pelting her in rapid fire. At least the drops are big and soft, she thought to herself as Slanon helped her maneuver the wet steps.

  Gripping her hand, he led her past the house and to the outdoor bed. Once they were safely under the clear shield that protected the bed from night rains, Slanon pulled her in close. She moaned when he bent and pressed his lips to hers. The kiss started off soft, but steadily grew into a hungry devouring of mouths.

  Panting, he pulled back and started flinging his clothes off. “Take off you wet clothes, sweetling. I want to see all of you.”

  Wanting to tease her mate, she gripped her breasts and started massaging her nipples. He groaned when she slid one shoulder free of her dress at a time. Watching his eyes, she removed her hands from her heavy breasts and let the party dress fall to the wooden deck. Sure enough, Slanon’s amazing eyes darted to her D-cup mounds. Almost instantly, the pretty blue and gold colors in his eyes started swirling.

  The moons’ beams revealed the slight reddish flush that started covering his body. “Bed, now,” he commanded in a smoky voice.

  Fire danced over her clit at the passionate look in his eyes. She quickly climbed onto the bed. A yelp exploded past her lips when he jumped on the bed in all his naked glory and flipped her onto her back.

  In a quick move, her lover spread her legs and knelt between them. The soft hairs on his legs caressed her thighs and stoked the passion in her to a higher plane. The power of his huge body was stunning. It made her want to eat him up.

  Rough hands pushed her swollen breasts together. “I love your boobs. They are so big and soft.”

  Leaning forward, Slanon sucked a nipple into his mouth. The flick of his tongue over the pebbled peak had her arching into him. His growl of approval shot a lust-laden arrow to her groin. When he pushed her nipples close together and started licking and sucking both at the same time, carnal fire burned a path from her chest to her pussy, causing her to move and moan uncontrollably.

  “You’re so fucking hot when you squirm like that.”

  She clutched at his shoulders as he started working his way down her body. “I can’t last much longer, sweet giant.” His actions and scent were rushing her toward a climax she knew would be damn good.

  “That’s all right, sweetling. I plan on giving you more than one trip to paradise tonight.” His hands spread her thighs wider as his tongue sank into her aching channel. The rough texture of it rubbed sensually across her delicate tissues and pushed her closer to the edge.

  A purr vibrated from his chest as he ate at her wanting flesh. The building storm in her pelvis coiled tighter and tighter with each jab of his tongue into her body.

  His rough tongue moved up and swiped across her clit. The clouds burst when his mouth latched onto her tiny pearl and sucked. Her muscles tensed and she cried out as the waves of pure pleasure slammed into her and shoved her over the edge. She floated in a euphoric state for an endless moment. The soft rhythm of rain falling on the trees and deck eased her back to reality.

  Slanon’s tongue was gently exploring her swollen slit. He purred as he tasted her thoroughly. The delicious vibrations kindled the simmering lust she always carried for her sweet giant.

  He inhaled and looked up at her. His eyes were swirling with lust and his scent became stronger. Her heart pounded with excitement. That spicy, masculine smell meant he was about to let his wild side free.

  * * * *

  Slanon released the beast in him. With a growl, he flipped his little mate over and raised her hips off the mattress. He fit his aching tip to her pink opening and started stretching her passage. Each thrust further into her silky grasp sent splinters of pleasure rippling up his spine. He watched as his fourth band stretched her delicate flesh wide before sliding inside her hot body.

  Every band that he hurried in her drew him closer to the paradise he craved. The soul-shattering place only she could take him to. Reaching around her shapely hip, he strummed his fingers across Alicka’s sweet pearl. As his body’s need for relief grew, it released more of his enhanced scent. Alicka responded to it immediately. Her body quivered and her pussy relaxed enough for him to sink all the way in.

  Her soft moans triggered his darker side. Snapping his hips, he began slamming into her sl
ick hole repeatedly. As he kept the pace going, fiery need scorched his balls and licked its way up his erection. Seeing her hands clutching the sheets pushed his need to a higher level.

  Pulling out of her caused his throbbing shaft to protest. He ignored the ache in his balls as he flipped her over and spread her legs wide. The bands around his shaft pulsed in need. Letting his hard rod dictate his actions, he guided the crown into her wet entrance and tunneled his way home in one ecstasy-filled lunge. As his erection merged them together, he leaned down and sucked her pierced ear into his mouth and growled. She whimpered and then cried out as another orgasm washed over her.

  The tightening of her silky channel and the sounds coming from her caused a molten heat to spring from his balls and rocket out of his body. His seed flooded her fluttering pussy. She mewled again as her body quivered under his.

  To keep their pleasure going, he continued to growl softly around her piercing. He didn’t stop until she sighed in a thoroughly satisfied way and sank into the mattress.

  Her limber limbs were easy to shift and pull the covers up and over. “I love you, sweetling,” he whispered into her ear.

  A smile lit her sexy-sleepy face. “I love you, too, sweet giant.”

  A small movement and soft prodding at the foot of their bed pulled his attention downward. The tip of a fluffy, pink tail was feeling all over the edge of the mattress.

  Alicka gasped and then covered her mouth with her hand. Mr. Tickles started chirping loudly and the sheets pulled slightly as the lukpas climbed onto their bed.

  In fascinated horror, Slanon watched a pink-and-white head pop up and over the edge of the bed. The white fur around his yellow eyes gave the lukpas a bandit look. Right now, he was a furious bandit.

  After pulling himself onto the bed, Mr. Tickles’s yellow eyes zeroed in on Slanon and then Alicka. Those angry yellow orbs flashed back to Slanon. Chattering the whole way, the pink fur-ball hopped his way up to them on Alicka’s side of the bed and then circled their heads.

  They both sat up and watched him. It took everything Slanon had not to laugh at the tiny, upset creature.
