Chapter Forty-Two

Vera

Paradise – H.E.R., Yung Bleu

My massive Orukna—mylittle prince—whimpers as I ride his face, using him for my pleasure. He’s shaking from resisting the urge to grab me. His palms flatten and flex into a fist over and over again atop the grass he lays on.

“You should see how good you look as my throne,” I praise, wanting him to know he’s such a perfect lover. His tongue penetrates me, curving into my first pleasure spot. He was right about me having two.

One is near my entrance, only an inch or so in. The second can only be reached by someone like Raevar. Oruknas are one of the only species compatible with Solerans like my species. His cock will be able to morph inside me and notch into my second spot. There are toys for its stimulation, but nothing compares to the real thing. Or so I’ve heard.

“You were right,” I breathily admit. “You know my cunt better than anyone. Look at you so eager to please me.”

He growls and the vibration is heavenly.

“You can touch me.” I give in, wanting to know what he’ll do. Without warning, he grips my hips and slams me on his mouth, like he wants to suffocate between my thighs. Almost in a frenzy, he rubs his face all over my pussy, painting himself in my slick all while his nose becomes a grinding point for my clit.

My entire body shakes as he devours me, sounding like a heathen, growling and grunting, the wet sounds of my slickness gratuitous and loud.

He hums and moans, his pleasure palpable as he crushes me to him. Each of his fingers dig into my skin and I know there will be bruises.

“You don’t need to breathe, do you, baby?” I tease, riding his face like it’s my own personal grinder, a toy for my pleasure and nothing more.

Teeth meet my skin and bite, and I can’t help but keen and fall forward, humping his face in kind. “That’s it, baby.” Fuck. “Right there, don’t stop,” I whimper as his tongue spears me and his nose rubs across my clit. He doesn’t stop his ministrations as I shudder and pulse as my orgasm overtakes me.

“Fuck.” My body trembles as I barely hold my body up. “Fuck, Raev,” I cry out, my legs continue shaking while it seems to go on and on. “You’re so perfect. My perfect little prince.”

Climbing off of him, I breathe heavily, my chest rising and falling in rapid succession. When I peer at him, he’s so blissed out I can’t help but let out a laugh.

He turns to me, his face covered in my release. “What?”

“You seem pleased.”

He licks his lips, using his thumb to wipe as much of my cum as he can into his mouth. “Very,” he sighs, his eyes closed.

Scanning his body, there’s not only damp spots on his dress shirt, but his pants are also wet.

“The moment I tasted your cunt, I came in my pants,” he admits bashfully, putting his arm across his face to hide it.

I turn to him, pinching his nipple. He jumps and yelps. “What was that for?”

“You didn’t ask if you could come,” I reprimand, but it’s halfhearted. I’m extremely pleased something as simple as my slick set him off.

“If you tasted yourself, you’d have come too. God, I can’t believe I finally got to taste you.” His words are wistful and when his eyes open, he’s staring deeply at me.

“What?”

“I need to see Abuelita.”

“Mood killer,” I grunt, rolling my eyes. I nod, knowing our time is coming to an end. “Go. I’m sure she’ll want to hear about Dulce.”

“And you,” he tacks on. “She’ll want to know.”

“Know what?”

“That you’re my mate too. And one day soon, you’ll be my wife.”

I blink, wondering how he can simply just change the way things are so easily. “Raev—”

“I’ll hear no arguments, mi media naranja.”

My breathing stills with those three words he still uses as if it were my name. Only when we’re alone and away from prying eyes and ears.

“Ever going to tell me what that means?”

His cheeks tint in a reddening manner and the bashfulness he’s expressing has my face breaking into a grin.

“One day, when you’re ready to hear the words,” he gently admits, omitting the fact that I could simply ask Dulce. As if reading my mind, he shakes his head. “Don’t take that moment from me.”

Letting out a huff, I cross my arms over my chest. “I loathe secrets.”

“Not a secret, mi reina. It’s the most truthful confession I’ve ever given you.”

“But you’ve been calling me that for nearly two decades,” I argue, my eyes flitting back and forth between his.

He nods twice. “Yeah, it’s something I’ve known early on, and it hasn’t changed.” Standing, he uses his shirt to wipe the excess release from his nose and jaw. “We’ll talk again. Just give me time to speak with Abuelita.”

His eyes soften, making him appear so sincere. I don’t step away as his big palms cup my shoulders before sliding to my jaw. He brings our faces together, and the scent of me all over him pleases a hedonistic part of me that I don’t often give into.

Our lips meet, and this one is different from the last ones. It’s possessive and promising. We will talk and this will be our new journey.

“I’ve always had feelings for you,” I say, my admission ripping from my chest. He pulls back, his eyes twinkling.

“I know.”

“I was scared.”

“I know.”

“I don’t want to be scared anymore,” I whisper, barely containing my emotions. He eyes me, leaning forward and dropping the most touching kiss to my forehead. He inhales while his plush lips simply press against my skin.

“You never have to be scared again, V. I always have been and always will be here for you.” He runs a hand through the underneath of my crown of hair, cupping my head. “I’ll love you until you believe it to be true. I’ll cover my skin in ink of your name if that’s the reassurance you need. I’ll fall to my knees and crawl to you in front of every creature in this kingdom if you wish that of me.” Gripping my hair, pulling tightly and forcing my gaze and jaw upward, he nips at my lips.

“I’ll love you endlessly, until my breaths cease to exist. No one in this realm or the next will take you from me. I might’ve been scared, unsure, and a little skittish before. Meeting Dulce, having her, and knowing she was certain she wanted you and me both only solidified what I’ve always known...” He brushes his lips against my throat, trailing them up my neck until he reaches my ear. “That you have, and always will be mine.”

“Raev,” I cry, my emotions hitting me square in the chest. “What if she—”

He stops my words from forming with a blindsiding kiss, his tongue scorches me as he controls the movements, making me melt into him, giving up that control I always hold hostage. He’s always been safe. Out of everyone in this realm, trusting him is as easy as breathing.

“She wants you. She was headed this way before Vex interrupted her journey.” The teasing way he says this makes me believe it’s an amusing tale. “She wants you and me and us.”

His words are starting to click, resonating. Can a creature so beautiful exist? One who wants all of us and also wants us to want each other?

“This will work and we’ll be happy,” he reassures, kissing my cheeks before letting me go. “Go see her. Stop avoiding meeting the love of your life.”

I let out a little huff of a laugh, wanting to cry. “She’s mine?”

“She is. She was made for you. Now go get your princess. She’s an impatient little thing.”

We both laugh at that, and for the first time in a long time, I feel free. To enjoy life, be the queen, have a happy ending, and change everything.

“Go,” I shoo, knowing what I need to do.

He waves and rushes toward his abuelita’s cottage. Rosa is going to have a whole laugh at our expense. For years, she swore that he and I’d marry one another.

That old bat was right.
