I groaned and started moving my hand faster. “Yeah, like that. Fuck.”

That made him a little braver. He leaned over me, tracing a claw down my thigh again, and then the other. I closed my free hand over my balls, massaging roughly, driving myself close to that edge while Ghost’s hands traveled down the backs of my legs to cup my ass. I lifted my legs to give him access without even thinking. It was practically instinct. I’d been expecting more claws pressing into my skin, maybe some exploratory probing with his fingers.

Tentacles were the last thing on my mind.

My eyes snapped open when I felt the smooth alien appendages slither up my taint and curl around my balls. One circled the base of my cock, right where it had been that morning, but when I looked down, my heart nearly stopped when I realized those tentacles weren’t coming from his wrists, but the insides of his thighs. Strange, purple-red cracks had formed along the seams where his thighs and torso met, and another split open the center of his torso between his legs, creating two rhombus-shaped plates that shuddered and slowly started pulling back. It was mesmerizing, a little terrifying, but hot as fuck.

Okay, so that one shouldn’t have been a surprise since I used to pop a boner every time the Predator guy showed up inPredator.In my defense, I thought that was just a phase every teenage boy went through. Everybody gets hot for a dangerous alien species sometimes.

Tentacles tightened around my legs and yanked me closer to him. The impact of my balls against his body must’ve jarred something loose in my brain, because my cock immediately jerked, painting my abs in an impressive load of cum. I was still panting and twitching when Ghost’s tongue swept over me, licking it up with loud slurping sounds and throaty growls. Istilled as I realizedsomethingwas protruding from the crack in his crotch plates.

Yeah, I was really going to have to come up with a better word for those.

Anyway, whatever it was, it was fleshy and slick, almost like a bigger, slipperier version of his tentacles except less bendy.

Ghost stopped licking the cum from my abs suddenly and met my eyes. The bulb dangling from his forehead shifted from the deep crimson glow it’d been emitting for some time now to pink. That was a new color. He backed away and tucked his head, uttering a sound that was a cross between a cicada scream and a cat trill.

When he turned his back, I sat up and reached for him. “Ghost, wait!”

I was too late. He ran to the edge of the lake and dove in, leaving me alone.

I sighed and scrubbed my hand over my face. Well, at least I didn’t have a boner anymore, even if I was confused as hell. Sex wasn’t that big a deal to me. How could it be when I was hooking up with random people on the regular? But maybe it was for him. We’d barely made it to third base, but I had no idea how it worked for irqed, or what his experience was. Hell, for all I knew, he’d never even touched a dick before—his own included. To suddenly go from that to what we’d just done was probably a bit of a shock.

I frowned. He’d seemed into it—like,reallyinto it—but maybe I’d crossed a line without knowing?

With a sigh, I dragged the corner of the blanket over the wet spot on my abs, cleaning off the last of the mess. When he came back, we were going to have a long talk about expectations, boundaries, and dicks.

By the time Ghostcame back, my stomach was growling loud enough, he probably heard it from the water. Maybe that was why he came back with two fish in his mouth. He squatted next to me and unceremoniously spat them at my feet like some sort of gift.

I frowned at him. Hungry as I was, I wasn’t going to let him off the hook for what happened earlier. “Why’d you run away?”

He snorted at me and picked up one of the flopping fish, bashing it against the ground so it’d stop moving. Then he held it out to me with an encouraging nod.

I put my hand over his and pushed the fish away. “Not until you answer me.”

Ghost bared his teeth and growled, shoving the fish at me with more insistence.

“I’m not scared of you.” I folded my arms over my chest, hoping he’d buy it. The truth was, I was a little scared—okay, maybemoderatelyscared—but that didn’t change the fact thata conversation had to happen, no matter how uncomfortable it made him.

I ducked my head to catch his attention. “Ghost, you understand what we did, it was just…”

Before he came back, I had it all straight in my head. I knew what I was going to say, and how I was going to say it. The minute he spat his fish at my feet, everything I’d wanted to say just vanished.

Ghost turned away, grabbed the second fish and wrestled it into his mouth, swallowing it whole.

I put a hand on his arm and he jerked away as if he were afraid of me. I dropped my hand with a sigh. “Listen, you understand I wanted that, right? And, like, that you don’t have to do anything that makes you uncomfortable. You know about sex?”

Clearly as far as third base, but maybe the rest was confusing him.

He snorted and shook his head before reciting, “Boys and girls of a certain age must learn about the birds and the bees.” It sounded like something out of one of those after school specials from the sixties.

That didn’t get me any closer to an answer, though. If I had accidentally traumatized him, I’d never forgive myself.Should’ve asked first, but it wasn’t like he gave me much of a chance. He sort of pounced on me, and I wasn’t thinking straight.

I pulled the blanket closer, closing it in the front to keep my body heat in. “If you won’t talk to me, then we’ll have to do this the hard way.” I shot forward, grabbing onto the little bulb protruding from his head.

Ghost made a distressed sound, but I barely heard it, suddenly thrust into another memory.

We are sitting in a darkened room, looking at slides on a projector while Papa explains it to us, what he wants me to do.There is a terrible feeling in my stomach, like I’ve eaten bad fish. The kind with spines and stingers.
