“Look, Xenia. See where we’re joined together.”

She looked down, saw the thick length of him parting her folds, sliding into her. Her breath caught, her entire body thrumming with the need to come.

“You’re so tight. But you fit me perfectly.” He started thrusting into her and his eyes never left hers. “My perfect fit.”

Her heart clenched. This was supposed to be sex and pleasure. Nothing else. So why did she feel like this connection was deeper, stronger? She felt it all the way to her bones.

“I’m going to come, baby.” His fingers dug into her skin. Then one of his hands dropped between them.

She felt him stroke where his cock stretched her, then he found her clit. He flicked it, and everything inside her clenched hard. She cried out.

“Go over, Xenia. Just let go.”

She had no choice. His steady thrusts, the pressure of his fingers, it was too much. Her release hit her like a supernova, and she screamed his name.

Seconds later, he drove into her and held himself there as his back bowed. He shot his release into her, groaning her name.

Wrecked. Xenia wasn’t sure she could hold her head up.

But then Axton was pulling her into his arms. They didn’t go far. He collapsed onto the kitchen floor and tugged her close to his side. He pressed a kiss to the top of her head.

She floated, enjoying the languorous sensations in her body. It was so good to just be herself, to not block the emotions.

Then a message appeared in the overlay in her right eye. Xander wanted to initiate contact.

She sat up fast and scrambled to tug the robe around herself. “Xander’s calling.” She touched her implant. “Xander?”

“Good morning, Xenia. I wanted to check in on the retrieval of the Codex.”

Axton moved, curling around her to press a kiss to her lower back. Damn the man and his clever lips. “Actually, I’m at Ax…Prime Saros’ residence now to examine the map we discovered on the Rahl Sync.”

“Good. The team finished searching the warehouse you and Axton set alight,” Xander said.

Axton’s sinful lips were traveling upward along her spine. She shivered and tried hard to keep her focus on the conversation. “Technically it was the—” Axton’s mouth moved tothe side, finding the underside of her breast “—Rahl.” The last word came out as a squeak.

“Xenia? Are you okay?” Xander asked.

I’m not cool and emotionless. I slept with your brother, the planet’s leader. Well, actually we didn’t sleep. We had wild, wicked sex all night long.“Fine.”

“The team recovered some artifacts from private collections, but there was no sign of the Codex. Keep searching and keep me informed.”

Axton was nipping at her shoulder now. She tried to push him away, but he wasn’t budging. “Yes, sir.” Her voice was breathy now.

“Are you sure you didn’t sustain any damage yesterday?” Xander asked.

“I’m fine. I’ve never been better.”

There was silence for a moment. “Okay, keep me informed. And Xenia?”

Axton lifted his head, giving her a roguish smile. He was so incredibly attractive.

Xander. She was talking with Xander. “Yes, Xander?”

“Try not to lead the Prime astray.”

She choked. “Sir?”

“Into anymore booby traps or explosions.”
