Chapter Five
Tark could admit that he was a bit anxious over Suki seeing her new home. He wanted her to like it, and hoped that she would do whatever it took to make the place feel like she belonged there. The fact he had a mate still seemed a little surreal. While he’d gone to that part of the station in hopes of perhaps purchasing a slave, he’d been worried that even a female he purchased would be terrified of him. Despite everything Suki had been through, she was strong and hadn’t given up. And for some reason, she accepted him as her mate. Even seemed pleased with the idea.
She was more than he had ever hoped for, and Tark was worried he wouldn’t live up to her expectations. It wasn’t just his home, or the fact she was on a new planet with very few humans. He’d never been intimate with anyone before. Suki might not have chosen all of her sexual partners, but she knew more than he did. What if she found him lacking when it came to intimacy?
Suki wandered the house, touching things here and there, but he couldn’t tell what she thought about the place. When she entered their bedroom, she ran her fingers across the blanket covering the bed. She turned and checked out the space, then focused on him. With a smile curving her lips, she crooked her finger and beckoned him closer. Tark swallowed the knot in his throat and moved nearer to his sweet mate, wondering what she wanted. Even though Wrylack had cleared her for intimacy, he’d thought she might want more time. They were still strangers, and she had so many things that were new in her life. Didn’t females need an adjustment period?
“You liked kissing me, didn’t you?” she asked.
“Very much.” Was that his voice? He cleared his throat and looked around uneasily.
“Tark?”
He glanced down at Suki and saw that she was removing her clothes. His cock hardened immediately, but he took a hasty step back. He hadn’t expected such a bold move from her and felt completely off balance, but then she’d made him feel that way from the moment she’d said she wanted to be his. Suki was different from anyone he’d met before, in a good way, but it sometimes made him feel like he was floundering.
“Suki, I… we don’t have to do this right now. There’s plenty of time,” he said.
“Tark. Get undressed.”
He slowly reached for the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head. Her lips parted as she stared at his chest, but it was her light touch that nearly undid him. His body shuddered as she caressed him, her fingers stroking over every exposed inch of his skin. He held still, worrying that if he moved, he might frighten her. Just because she was instigating things didn’t mean she wouldn’t change her mind.
Suki reached for the fastening of his pants, then shoved them down his hips. Tark still had his boots on and stared at his feet a moment before leaning down and removing the boots and pants. Suki bit her lip as she walked around him, her fingers trailing along his skin. His cock was throbbing, and if she so much as touched his shaft, he worried he’d come before he could even get inside of her. Tark wanted to please her, to make the experience good for her, but he didn’t know how. He was starting to wish he’d asked questions of the mated males.
He slowly reached for her, feeling how soft and silky her skin was. His fingers slid across her nipple and she moaned, her eyes sliding shut. He wondered what other parts of her would elicit that response. Tark took his time, enjoying the feel of her. Her nipples were hard, and he discovered she liked it when he pinched them. The musk of her arousal filled the air, making him even harder. When Suki trembled and lay back on the bed, parting her legs, he groaned.
“So beautiful,” he said. “Suki, I…”
She shushed him. “I know you’re a virgin. You don’t have to be embarrassed, Tark. There isn’t a male out there who can last long his first time. I may not have had experience on Earth, but I heard the girls giggling at school.”
She held her hands out to him and Tark climbed onto the bed, kneeling between her legs. He settled his body over hers, and the feel of her slick pussy was almost enough to make him come. He clenched his jaw as he sank into her. She felt like wet silk, her warmth wrapping around his shaft and welcoming him into her body. Tark looked down at Suki, holding her gaze as he thrust into her. There was tenderness looking back at him, and happiness. She ran her fingers along his jaw, her fingers rasping against the white scruff that wasn’t quite a full beard, then wrapped her legs around his waist.
He slid deeper into her and knew he couldn’t hold back for long. It only took another three strokes and he was coming. Suki kissed him, stroking his shoulder and back with her hand. He shuddered, still buried inside of her. Nothing could have prepared him for how good she’d feel. It wasn’t like he’d never come before. He’d used his hand plenty of times, but it wasn’t even a little bit like being inside of Suki.
“That was…” He didn’t even have words for it.
“Perfect,” she said.
“No.” He frowned. “You didn’t come. I may not know much about how this works, but I can tell you didn’t experience what I did.”
“Tark, the fact that it was you inside of me was what made it perfect. If you want to make me come, I can show you how.”
His gaze traced what he could see of her body. “Show me.”
She pushed at his shoulder a little and he lifted some, but kept their bodies joined. She reached for his hand and placed it at the top of her pussy, then parted the lips some more, showing him a little nub. It stood up and was slick from her need.
“Rub me here, and I’ll come,” she said.
Tark stroked her right where she’d shown him, and it didn’t take long before he felt her getting even hotter and wetter. When she came, her pussy clenching tight on his cock, it was enough to make him rock hard again. He started thrusting as he rubbed the little spot and when she came a second time, he followed. Tark worried he would be too heavy if he collapsed on top of her, so he rolled them to their sides, his arm going around her waist as he held her close, careful not to squeeze too hard since it was his cybernetic arm.
“I’m sorry,” he said. A male with more experience would have pleased her more. On the battlefield, he was legendary. But when it came to females? Tark had no experience and he couldn’t help but feel as if he’d failed her.
“You have nothing to be sorry for,” she said, snuggling closer. “You’re the first guy to ever give me an orgasm. Instead of beating yourself up, you should be congratulating yourself.”
“We’ll have to disagree on that.”
“Tark,” she said softly.
He looked down and held her gaze.
