Grabbing onto his hair, she pressed him to the perfect spot as his tongue lashed against her. “Yes, Imber, right there.”
He groaned, a long, low word that sounded like a curse. “You taste so good,” he growled before plunging his tongue deep inside her.
And what a long tongue it was. She arched her body, riding his tongue like she would his cock as he pistoned it in and out of her pussy. She was glad they were underwater or she might have heard the obscene sounds of how wet she was and how hard she rode him, but then stars sparkled beneath her eyes.
He bent his tongue, pressing against something inside her and all those little suction cups gripped onto her and she exploded.
Every muscle in her body locked up tight. She couldn’t see. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t do anything other than hold on to him and hope she made it out of this alive, because she thought maybe she wouldn’t.
Eventually the clenching muscles gave, and she slumped down onto the sand. There really wasn’t enough air for her to breathe, but she felt him breathe a little harder for her so she could at least get her heart to beat a little slower. It wasn’t easy, though. Not when she was so limp in his arms.
He braced himself over her, that long, dark tongue licking his lips as though he couldn’t stand wasting a single taste of her.
“I’d like to do that again,” he said, his voice still thick and ragged. “Soon.”
“Yeah, when I can breathe again,” Alys replied, then giggled. “I don’t... I don’t think I can move.”
“Good, you don’t have to.” Imber smoothed her hair away from her face. “For now, I should get you somewhere safe.”
She shook herself free from the post orgasm haze, reminding herself that technically they weren’t safe yet. They were still in the ocean, likely still near the dig site for Alpha. They had a lot of things to do, and she couldn’t just snuggle into him when all she wanted was to return the favor.
“But what about you?” she asked, drawing her fingers down his lips. She couldn’t stop touching him. Not after that.
He grinned, nipping at her lips. “Soon, little one. Soon. But first, we have to do something about your shell.”
“My shell?” She frowned before realizing he was looking at her ship. “Ah. Right. That is a problem.”
One that was easy to fix, even if it meant that she would have to break her father’s heart a little. It made her own heart break, but she hoped he would see it as a sign.
He was the only one who knew she was close with the undine. He was the only one who knew that she wasn’t alone in the ocean.
She made quick work of it. She couldn’t even let Beta know that she was going to be okay, or the little droid would have to tell them. So she directed Imber. “Rip off the front glass, if you can. There’s a red button on the top panel. It’s an emergency protocol that will make it go home on its own. It should be able to do so even with all the water damage.”
He gave her a look, clearly unimpressed that she thought he couldn’t rip off the panel. She watched with wide eyes as he made it look almost easy. He tore the glass off like it wasn’t held down by industrial strength bolts that were then welded onto the metal.
He could have ripped the whole thing open like a tin can if she asked him to do that. And somehow, that was thrilling more than it was terrifying.
When it was all said and done, there was very little to do other than rub at the faint ache in her chest. They were still connected by that tentacle, far enough to be an arm’s length away, and that was all. So when he gathered her close, it felt only natural to move even closer.
“Come home with me?” he asked.
She found it was hard to do anything other than nod against his chest and mourn the loss of her old life. Even as she felt a spark of excitement to see her new one.
Chapter
Ten
Nerves churned in his belly as he swam her away from the grove. He had never thought this would be possible, let alone that he would bring Alys back to his family.
But no part of him regretted asking her. The only thing he had to be nervous about was whether or not they would let her stay.
He thought they would. Maybe. His people were suspicious of hers, considering the attack that had just happened and the fact that they were going to be faced with more attacks soon. But maybe, just maybe, she could win them over.
Imber tried to prepare himself for the inevitable. Someone would try to hit her or scratch her. They would want to take their pound of flesh for what her people had done to his. Though they were likely owed that, he didn’t want to see her harmed. She wasn’t the one who had burned his pod mate. She wasn’t the one who had designed this new city of theirs.
Perhaps he should hope that his sister found them first. Virago would be a much larger shield for his Alys while Imber tried to calm everyone down.
Come to find out, he didn’t need to worry in the slightest.
