Funny how telling her she was loved and safe caused the strongest orgasms, the ones where she wailed and bucked.
Jade doesn’t just come when her body is stimulated. She comes when her brain is engaged. Remember, she told you she numbed herself for the others, shut down, drifted away inside of her mind.
I think I get it. I understand her—somewhat.
Ardol tried not to look smug—and he didn’t have time anyway. In seconds, Jade was pulling an eye-crossing climax from him.
“Shower with me?” she asked, turning to face him while licking her lips. She seductively sucked his cum off of her fingers. “Mm. Not bitter. Kind of spicy. Like ginger without the burn. I like it.”
“I can’t shower with you, or I’ll never get to work, and I have to train Elio,” Ardol panted.
She pouted. “I’m all slippery and sticky. I was thinking you might like to watch me wash it off.”
To hell with work. “I can be late.”
ARDOL SPENT THE REMAINDER of the week in a happy daze. He had to report to work each day, but no one seemed to mind if Jade came and sat in the Freight Coordinator’s Office with him. She brought her computer and read about Leopardine-One, or she composed notes to Claude and Griselda.
Other times she visited with Layla and Wendy in the new “nursery” on the ship. Wendy and Talos were going to try the booster program once they were off Lynx-Nineteen and Marcus could focus on helping them.
A couple of days were spent back in the small mining and farming town.
Even though his bride didn’t talk about it, Ardol realized that Jade had finally made peace with the place just as she was about to leave it.
By Bastet, I hope I’m enough for her.
The thought actually made him freeze, nose wrinkling in disgust. Of course I’m enough! Look at me, rich, eligible, educated—apparently amazing in bed.
Ha. That was the Ardol that Cala discarded for an oversized marsh duck. If you are enough for Jade, it won’t be because of those qualities. To her, that would make you a client—not a husband.
I hope she still thinks I’m a good husband in a few cycles’ time. I hope my younger sisters will welcome her with open arms.
What if they don’t? What if she’s miserable?
Well. We won’t have to deal with that until the next galactic year.
“You’re frowning.” Jade sat beside him. Her screen was open to a Leopardine System government site, and she was swiping through the names of the district lords and the regents for each planet.
“I’m thinking.”
“About what?” Her eyes left the screen and found his.
“That you’ve become happy here. I hope you’ll be as happy on Leopardine-One.” He kept his voice low. No one else knew that he planned to end his contract at the end of this year.
“I’ll be where you and our children are. That’ll be enough for me.”
Children. A sacred and noble thought, especially when new life was so rare in the entire Felix Orbus Galaxy.
His cock shouldn’t be throbbing.
“So soon? ‘Breakfast’ wasn’t enough?” She slid her chair beside his.
“Remember, Felid Kings are built to take care of Queens in heat. Multiple times a day for weeks.”
Jade nonchalantly slipped her hand into his uniform’s waistband. “I’m not complaining. Do you think... When do you think you’ll have another couple of days off together? Where we won’t have to leave our quarters?” Jade’s hand expertly stroked the bulge to its full length, requiring him to lean back and free himself from his confines, pulse racing.
“Jade! The crew can come in here any time. Jaxson will probably be down any minute to ask for updates on his engine parts!”
“So answer my question,” Jade’s hand kept moving, her eyes sparkling in mischief. “When can we have a few undisturbed days?”
