But once Tori let me inside her, there was another change.

And now, every breath was a constant battle for control not to take her again.I would never hurt her, not ever.But the pull of her body was strong, and the reminder of her taste every time I picked up a hint of her scent in the wind was enough to make my knees buckle.

I still hadn’t responded to her, and she kept saying my name.I could hear it through the fog in my mind, her voice fading in and out.My name sounded so sweet coming from her.I never thought much of names, but now I loved my name and craved hearing it from her lips.

Tori kneeled in front of me, and when I simply continued to stare at her, eyes blazing with lust, she cupped my cheeks in her hands.I should stop her from touching me, but the warmth that flared under her palm had me groaning.

“Vitri,” she repeated my name again from those lips, lips I wanted to touch, to kiss, to feel wrapped around my cock.I raised my hands to mirror her hold on me and brushed my thumb over her lips, pressing against the soft flesh.The concern never left her eyes.Wasn’t she wonderful?Still caring about me.“Are you okay?Please talk to me.”

Now her tone was edged in panic, and I wanted to soothe her because that’s what a good mate should do—look after, feed, and find shelter for his mate, but also take care of her, make sure she is calm and happy, and at her most content at all times.I tried to form words, but instead, my tongue flickered obscenely with the memory of doing the same motion against her sweet cunt, and her cheeks flushed.

Gently, I pulled Tori’s face to mine and planted a tender kiss on her lips.She returned it with little enthusiasm, still staring at me with intense compassion and concern.Still holding her face, I ran my tongue over her lips, and this made her shudder and her eyes flutter closed for a moment.An almost inaudible growl vibrated through my chest, and I repeated the action, sliding my tongue past her lips when she gasped.With a hand behind her head, I thrust my tongue into her mouth, causing her to squeak and her eyes widen as I kissed her hard.

I kept going, and she moaned against my lips, the sound so sweet that another tremble passed down my spine.With one hand, I pawed at her breasts, fighting the fabric to move out of the way so I could have the skin-on-skin contact I so desperately needed.In the back of my mind, there was a battle raging.If I took Tori again now, would my control over myself be better or worse?Would I descend further into the breeding machine I was created to be with every touch of her?Or could I fuck it out of my system?How long would it take?A day?A night?A full cycle of the moon?

We pulled away from each other at the same time, and her eyes wildly searched mine for answers since I still hadn’t said anything.With a hard shove, Tori pushed my shoulders.“Talk to me!”

I needed control.

With a mammoth effort, I pulled myself to my feet.Tori stepped back and looked up as I drew myself to my full height, towering over her.Kneeling on the ground like that, she was the perfect height for me to slide my cock into her waiting mouth.I wondered what the warmth and wetness of her mouth around me would feel like.

No.

When I snatched my spear up, she glanced at me wearily, but I was thankful to note she didn’t flinch or move away.

She knew I wouldn’t hurt her.

The thought sent another surge of animalistic possessiveness through me, and with a roar, I lifted my spear, bringing it down and slicing deep through my calf muscle.As I collapsed to my knees, drinking in the agony as my blood spilled down my leg, the stinging shock of the pain brought reality crashing back.Tori shrieked and launched herself at me.With one hand, I was able to hold her at arm’s length, and she continued to fight against me, reaching out and desperate to tend to my self-inflicted wound.

I drank in the moment.I lived in the pain, breathed sharply through my teeth, and ignored the feel of her body pushed against my palm, her arms reaching out.

Ignore how she reaches for you, how she cares.

Focus on the pain.It burns.

Good, let it burn some more.

“Tori.”She stilled as I finally spoke, my voice gravelly.“I’m sorry.”

The fog from my mind cleared somewhat, enough for me to think straight for the moment, and as I let Tori go, she stumbled slightly and regained her footing.Her eyes were a mixture of anger, confusion, and pain, and I grimaced, hating myself for being the cause of that for her as I tore a thin strip from my loin cloth and wrapped it around the wound.Tying it tight, I managed to stem the flow of blood and snarled when another shot of pain fired through my muscles as I finished the knot.But it was a good, distracting pain, and I breathed in harshly through clenched teeth and focused on it, gaining more control with each breath.

I stood and dropped my arms so Tori could approach me, which she did in a rush, slamming her palms against my chest and crying out, “What the fuck was that?Were you in some sort of trance?Tell me.”Her palms were wandering over my chest, and I was able to keep control.

Focus on the throbbing of the wound.Breathe in.Breathe out.

“Tell menowbecause if it happens again, I need to know what to do!”she cried out.

Dipping my chin to my chest, I took another moment to collect myself.She had every right to be angry.There was so much about this planet she didn’t know, so much aboutme.What she had learned in these past days was barely scratching the surface.How could you ever learn everything about a planet anyway?A being without enhanced learning abilities had no chance, especially not for a planet littered with an eclectic mixture of species from all the galaxies.I was her stability, and I had vowed to look after her.

Yet I had lost control, and she had lost the one thing she could rely on.

Me.

“I’m sorry,” I repeated, and I meant it with every fiber of my being.How could I explain to her what had happened without her worrying it would happen again?

How did I know it wouldn’t?

“I was created for breeding,” I said, and Tori nodded, her palms still pressed against my chest, the warmth both a comfort and a curse.
