I’m so exposed that I grow dizzy.
“Janelle, you’re going to listen to me. If you don’t want to look at me right now, that’s fine. I’m still going to spank your bottom after I finish speaking, but you will listen.”
I turn my head as far to the side as I can and hold my eyes closed tightly.
“I’m going to address everything you just said. First of all, I will distract you with my mouth, my quill, and my cock millions of times in our lifetime. That part is true. I’m going to do it because you’re going to crave it and beg me to do so.”
I gasp, but I don’t move.
“The rest of what you said is not true, though. Our bodies may look alike in many ways, but we are not compatible enough for procreation. You will never get pregnant, Little one. It’s not possible. We won’t need birth control or any other form of human protection because my seed will not penetrate one of your eggs.”
My mind is spinning. It’s hard to follow him. I think I understand, though.
“And lastly, I will never leave you. We will be together for hundreds of years on Eleadia. When Eleadians mate, we mate for life. Our bond will be so strong that it will be difficult to separate for even a few hours. You can already feel it growing. Idon’t know what all your mother told you, but no matter what, she doesn’t know anything about the kind of bond you and I will enjoy.”
“She’s gone,” I say, feeling like I should tell him. “Dead.” I turn my head to look at him.
“I’m so sorry, Little one.”
My lip trembles again. “I don’t think she ever wanted me. I was a burden. She hated that she got pregnant, and she didn’t want the same thing to happen to me, so she told me to never ever let a man near me.”
He strokes my cheeks with his thumbs. His hands are so huge that he can hold my legs open, pin my arms, and touch my face at the same time. I’m still reeling from this thought when he kisses me.
It takes me by surprise. His lips are gentle and soft, and he moves them around mine, leaving me even more lightheaded from the dozens of tiny sweet kisses.
His torso presses against my sex, making the room spin. I can’t help but buck against him because I like the feel of his warm skin against my private parts.
No man has ever kissed me, and they certainly haven’t touched me between my legs. I’ve never even considered such a notion.
“I’m sorry your mother died,” he whispers against my lips. “I’m sorry she was so sad while she was alive, too. I promise to make you the happiest Little girl who ever lived.”
I finally meet his gaze. “What if you’re lying?”
He smiles. “I will prove to you every day that I’m telling the truth until you believe me.”
“There are bumble bees in my tummy. You put them there.”
He chuckles. “I’ve heard human females sometimes get a fluttering sensation in their tummies when they meet their perfect mate. It’s normal.”
“You twisted one of my nipples, and now they feel uneven,” I blurt out because it’s true. The one nipple still feels the slight throb from him tweaking it. The other feels…jealous.
His laughter causes his chest to vibrate against my sex, making me moan. “Tekfan…”
“Papi. Call me Papi, Little one.”
“Papi…” It’s odd but I try it out, and I like how his smile grows.
“Good girl. Now, do you think your nipple will be happy if I bite it?”
I gasp, my eyes going wide.
He doesn’t wait for me to respond. He lowers his face to my chest and captures my nipple between his teeth. I’m surprised he remembers the correct one that got left out. He nips it and then releases it. “Are they equal now, Little one?”
I shake my head. I can’t believe the silly sound that escapes my lips. He didn’t bite it hard enough, and he’s teasing me. I like the way his eyes dance.
He bites it again, but still not with enough pressure. “Now?”
“Papi…” My heart feels fuller than it’s ever felt before. There’s a lightness in the room I’ve never experienced. Happiness. Laughter. Teasing. These aren’t sensations I’m used to.
