“Good?” Zev asks with a grin.
“Oh my God,” I say. “This is incredible.”
“I’m glad you like it,” he says sweetly. “You keep eating; just take it slow. Okay?”
“Okay,” I smile. I take the spoon from him and eat from my bowl as he eats from his. I try to go as slowly as I can, but it is just so fucking good. Anytime I end up eating too fast, Zev lays his hand on my thigh, and it reminds me to pace myself.
When my bowl is empty, I sit back in my chair and groan. My belly is so full. I have never felt this before, and I can’t tell if it’s a good feeling or a bad one. “I think we should get you to bed,” Zev says softly.
“You mean…”
“God, no. You’ll throw up,” he laughs. “You need to sleep.”
“Do you all have a set sleep cycle I have to abide by?” I ask.
“No,” he says. “Without the Hydrovita, you will be able to sleep freely.”
“Oh… well, I’d like to sleep for a few days,” I say.
“It’s because your body wants to detox, and it does that best when you are resting. I can wake you when we reach Torvex,” he says as he stands and pulls me up with him.
“Are you sleeping with me?” I ask, and Ren laughs. “No. I mean…”
“I know, you’re not used to sleeping in a room alone. After the group home, you had Lyra,” Zev says. “I will stay with you.”
“Your hand,” I say.
“It’s healed,” he says, showing me his palm. “I took care of it while you were eating.”
“Oh, good,” I say, yawning.
“Come on, sleepy,” he says. We go back downstairs, and he stops me beside the bed. “Slip off the pants. You’ll be more comfortable.”
“Okay,” I say sleepily. I take off my pants, and he pulls back the covers so I can lie down. He moves to the end of the bed and starts to undress.
This man is my life partner? My God, I am lucky. When he slips off his boxers, he already has another pair in hand to change into. My eyes go wide when I see how huge his dick is. That is almost unrealistic. How would that fit in a human of my size? Are they called savages because you’ll sound like a wild animal in heat when you get fucked? Something about the way his muscles flex and his cock visibly grows harder by the second has me growing curious along with it.
“Girl, you have got to get my dick off your mind, or I won’t have manners for much longer,” he says as he steps into the boxers.
“Stop poking me with it and showing it off, and I won’t think about it,” I say as he walks over and gets into bed beside me.
“I can’t promise anything,” he says as he pulls me back against his chest and wraps his arms around me. I move back and inadvertently press my ass against his cock, making him groan and tighten his grip on me.
“I’m sorry,” I say.
“It’s okay,” he says. “Go to sleep, Astra.”
I try to open my eyes, but I can’t. “Not fair,” I mutter.
“Sleep,” he repeats softly before kissing my shoulder.
“You too,” I argue. He chuckles but doesn’t say anything, allowing me to drift away.
Chapter Five
Zev
I wake to Astrafacing me with her leg draped over my hip. I am already hard, and my self-control is already diminishing. She will be asleep for the entire journey as she detoxes from the Hydrovita. It would be so easy to just pull my cock out and ease myself into her. She’d never wake, and this urge would be more manageable.
