Ali never put her mouth over him or took him between her lips but just used her tongue to swipe upward over and over. Brenda felt wetness pooling between her thighs when she managed another step backward. The man was the sexiest thing she’d ever seen and worse, she wished she were the one touching him. A flash of jealousy hit her and it stunned her. She barely knew the man so the emotion wasn’t rational.
Taking another step back, Brenda bumped into the edge of her bedroom door frame. A jar of pain shot up her back in a flash as the edge caught her shoulder blade.
Argis Rever’s eyes flew open at the slight sound she must have made and those amazing blue eyes locked with Brenda’s.
She watched his eyes narrow, his lips part, as he groaned deeply when he came hard a second later. Brenda tore her gaze from his to watch as Ali moved back to pump him with her hand, milking out every shot of release that left his body, hitting the Zorn woman’s body. Ali used her other hand to rub it on her bared breasts while she softly purred at Rever. His body jerked with every stream of semen that erupted from him.
Brenda lifted her gaze to find Rever watching her still with hooded eyes. They glowed in the dim hallway right into her soul. She found the willpower then to spin around and stumble into her room, shutting the door softly behind her. Leaning back against the door, she realized she was trembling and really turned-on. Her nipples ached and she was soaking wet between her thighs. Shutting her eyes, she softly mouthed a curse. That had been damn sexy.
“Thank you,” Rever said in a husky voice.
“My pleasure, Argis.” Ali chuckled. “It is always a joy to please you.” Brenda could hear the exchange. She took slow, deep breaths, eavesdropping on the couple on the other side of her bedroom door.
“Is there anything else I can do? Do you want to sleep in my bed, Argis?”
“No. I think I will shower and eat.”
“I could fix you something.”
“You have done enough. Thank you, Ali,” Rever gently dismissed the woman.
“Please return to your room and get some sleep. It has been a trying day.”
“Of course.”
A good minute of silence passed until Brenda heard the sound of Ali’s door firmly but softly shut. She relaxed, pushing away from the door and on shaky legs walked to her bed. The sound of someone entering her room made her gasp in surprise, spinning around.
Argis Rever stepped into her bedroom and paused at the doorway, dim light from the hallway silhouetting his body. His undershorts had been tugged up and his hard-on was gone now that Ali had taken care of it. Brenda raised her look from the front of the fabric barely covering him and blushed, discovering he was watching her and had noticed where on his body that she’d looked first.
“I apologize. Did we offend you? You looked upset.” Offended? That was the last description of what she was feeling that came to mind.
She was confused, turned-on and suffering pangs of jealousy. She took a deep breath and forced herself to keep facing him even though she wanted to turn away. She didn’t want to be this close to the man. He made her feel things that she couldn’t understand, explain, and he was off limits to her no matter how much she wanted him.
“No. I am just not used to seeing other people…” She swallowed. “Sex is usually a private act where I come from. That’s all. I didn’t expect that.” The man tilted his head, his glowing blue eyes were fixed on her, studying her. He inhaled. “It aroused you.”
Damn. She hated his keen sense of smell. Heat flushed her cheeks. It was embarrassing that he knew how much he turned her on. She kept her mouth shut since she didn’t know what to say that wouldn’t make the situation worse. Rever blinked a few times, watching her silently.
“Tomorrow I will take you shopping. Your future bound lives on a cruiser and you will need a hardy wardrobe. The least I can do after upsetting you is to provide one for you.”
“That’s not necessary.”
“I insist. After breakfast be prepared to leave with me and I will take you to the village where we will take care of your needs.”
The only need she had right now sure wasn’t clothes. She was aroused and wanted a man that was in effect married. Brenda managed to not stare at his perfect body even though she wanted to look her fill since so much of him was revealed in those small shorts. She kept her gaze locked with his.
“Thank you. What time do you want to leave?”
“Be ready just after dawn.”
“What do I wear? I mean, they only gave me these oversized shirts.”
“That is fine. It is what our women wear.”
“What about pants? Can I borrow a pair from Ali or from Tina? I don’t feel right running around naked under my clothes.”
A grin twisted his features, making him appear even more handsome. “It is the Zorn way. I will protect you so you have nothing to fear. You are safe with me, human.”
“Please, call me Brenda.”
He gave a nod. “And I insist that you drop the Argis and call me Rever. It is a Zorn title you don’t need to bother with.”
“Thank you.”
The grin on his features widened. “After the hallway just now it seems appropriate to be on a first name basis.”
A blush stained her cheeks. “Ali calls you Argis.”
“She is a house helper and you are not. There is a difference. I will see you at breakfast. Good night, Brenda.”
He left her room, softly shutting the door behind him, leaving Brenda to sink onto her bed. The man was flat out sexy. She shut her eyes. Watching Ali tongue the guy had been fucking hot. She just wished she’d gotten to touch him.
Shaking her head, she was shocked at herself. She knew it was out of character for her but then again, she’d never met a guy as special as the tall Zorn man. Rever just screamed sex appeal, putting all kinds of naughty thoughts in her head. Then there was the sympathy factor she had going for him to consider. He had hooked up to a cold piece of work named Tina and Brenda felt damn bad for the guy. He had no idea what kind of woman Tina was but she knew Tina was going to be nothing but heartache for the guy.
Chapter Three
Brenda had expected a village market to be just the way it sounded, thinking she’d see a bunch of people with carts selling their merchandise. Instead it looked similar to a bunch of outdoor stores selling everything from produce to high-end gadgets that she couldn’t begin to identify. There were more males than females, big men who dressed in uniforms or exercise wear. The women wore the long, loose tunics and seemed to shop together in groups.
Taking another step back, Brenda bumped into the edge of her bedroom door frame. A jar of pain shot up her back in a flash as the edge caught her shoulder blade.
