Magmus had to hold himself back. He could tell Cora was still not ready to take him. But he would let her taste his cum for the first time. He brought her up onto her knees in front of him. Her round belly rose under his hand as he reached between her legs and fingered her clit. Magmus sucked her breasts as he played with her pussy. He could feel she was ready to come at any moment.

  He wanted to feel her mouth on his cock while she climaxed for him. He ran his fingers through her hair and cupped the back of her head, looking down into her green eyes. Cora groaned and licked her lips, glancing at the head of his cock as it spurted the first drops of precum.

  She leaned forward, panting with anticipation. Her lips opened and she took the head of his cock between them. He flicked her clit, making her nipples go rigid with desire. Her body gushed moisture into his hand as she lapped up the precum seeping from the slit in the head of his cock.

  He licked her juices from his fingers as she sucked him deeper into her mouth. Her tiny mouth could never take the full force of his erect phallus, but she stretched her lips wide and sucked as much of him down as she could. Her velvety mouth on his rigid flesh was like a dream. As he felt his balls tighten with the impending orgasm, he reached between her legs and slid his fingers inside her pussy.

  Cora groaned and sucked harder as he stroked his shaft. Cora held onto his hips as she bobbed up and down on him, sucking and taking as much of his huge cock as would fit into her tiny mouth. Her tongue slid up the side of his shaft and flicked over the head.

  Her body clenched on his fingers as she came. He felt the deep churning desire in his loins shoot out in an ecstatic pulse. His cum erupted from the head of his cock and shot deep into Cora’s mouth. She groaned as she sucked it down, swallowing every drop.

  With panting breaths and tiny groans, Cora licked up the last of the semen that flowed from inside him. As he withdrew his fingers from her pussy, he knew that she was one step closer to being ready to be claimed.

  8

  Cora knew that any day now she would be ready to take Magmus the way a wife should take her husband. Every day her anticipation grew stronger. It had become the single biggest desire of her life even as they warp jumped from star system to star system toward the armada. Once they arrived, there would still be a war to wage, but Cora was so deeply in love and so enraptured by pleasure that all she wanted was him.

  He had not claimed her yet, but she knew that she belonged to him. She knew he was her fated mate. And being the fated mate of the Earth Prince of Galaton was the greatest honor of her life.

  The memory of her life on Earth seemed like a vague memory compared to the magnificence of Magmus Murcul. It was as if up until she’d met him, her existence had been in black and white. Now she was living in high-definition, digital-3D, technicolor. If it was a dream, she didn’t want to wake up.

  She would travel into the fiery pits of hell just to get another taste of his kiss. When they made the final warp jump into the system where the armada was located, she was standing beside him on the command deck.

  They found the system infested with Mulgor ships fighting with the Galatonian armada. The Space Dart flew through the system under its stealth shields and came to dock on the mothership Super Nova. They all boarded, and Magmus directed Cora’s things to be moved to his quarters for the rest of the journey.

  Cora followed Magmus down the broad hallways of the Super Nova, the command ship of the Galatonian armada. They came to his open doorway and entered to find her things already placed inside the rooms.

  The chambers were luxurious and comfortable, fit for a prince and commander of an entire planet’s space army.

  “I can’t believe you’re gardening in space,” he said, shaking his head at her collection of plants.

  “Surely others have gardened in space before,” she said.

  “Of course they have, but usually the crew has some kind of scientific facility to provide nourishment for the entire vessel.”

  “Well, they didn’t have anything like that aboard the Morning Glory so I made do.”

  “You are a botanist, aren’t you?” he said, as if recalling what he knew about her for the first time.

  “Don’t you know anything about me?” she giggled, crossing the room to kiss him.

  He had to lean down to allow her to reach him, but he smiled when he stood back to look at her.

  “I couldn’t think of you for six months or I would have lost my mind. My thrall has been unbearable, and my dragon is only now quieting inside my brain. I knew most of the details of your life, but didn’t consider them very much. I didn’t dare.”

  “That must have been terrible. I’ve been so worried about you going through the thrall all alone.”

  “It is what it is. Now I can learn all about you. Tell me more about your life.” He wrapped his arms around her again.

  “I do have a true passion for growing plants,” she said. “It kept me busy during those long months aboard the Morning Glory.”

  “You are a smart one,” he said, grinning and holding her close.

  “The smartest thing I ever did was agree to come to be with you,” she said, snuggling against his chest.

  The door to their chamber pinged and Magmus invited their guest inside. The door slid open and Admiral Saka stepped through.

  “Prince Magmus,” Admiral Saka said, bowing slightly and covering his heart. “We need you on the command deck. The Mulgor have picked up their attacks since your arrival, and we must decide how to deal with them.”

  “Will you be all right here in our chambers?” Magmus asked Cora.

  “I think I can manage,” she said.

  He kissed her gently on the lips before following his admiral out of their chambers. She had plenty of work to do, putting her little greenhouse back together. Cora moved her potted plants onto a windowsill and covered them with high-powered fluorescent lights.

  She watered her plants and then sat back to admire her work. There was a big bank of windows looking out into space in Magmus’s apartment, just as there had been in her apartment on the Morning Glory. She could see what was happening outside as she took in the view.

  A squadron of Mulgor fighter jets were approaching the Galatonian armada, which consisted of a dozen large ships and hundreds of smaller ones. The small Draconian fighter jets spilled out of the hulls of the larger ships and met the Mulgor jets in space.

  Lasers fired from every direction. Several Galatonian ships suffered damage, but the Mulgor jets were taken down one at a time. Cora sat stunned as she witnessed the spectacle of battle. Seeing the ships clash right in front of her, she came to the startling realization that this war was far more brutal than she had previously imagined.

  She’d been a child during the Mulgor invasion, but had witnessed very little. Her family had spent most of that time safely tucked away in her parents’ rural home. In the year since the Mulgor invasion of Earth, the Draconians had helped rebuild the world. There had been peace on Earth and in space.

  But this battle between Galaton and the Mulgor was happening right now, and it was very real. For a moment, she reconsidered Magmus’s offer to take her back to Galaton to safety while he hunted down the Mulgor.

  But even as the ships clashed in space outside her window, she couldn’t stomach the idea of being left alone on a strange planet without her mate. As much as she wanted her own safety and the safety of her child, her need to be with Magmus was stronger than anything else.

  They had already made a vow to do this together, and she intended to keep that vow. She only prayed that soon he would be able to claim her.

  She longed to feel his sharp teeth in her neck and the sensation of becoming one with her mate. Only then would they truly belong to each other, their souls entwined. She would gain long life and greater physical vigor.

  When the battle was over, Magmus joined her again in their chambers.

  “The Mulgor attacked and then jumped out of the system. We are about to
jump the entire armada in pursuit. My admirals believe the Mulgor are running out of strength and are now retreating to their home world.”

  “Isn’t that what we wanted?” she asked.

  “That is exactly what we wanted,” he agreed. “If they have been weakened then we can hunt them down and pick them off. It is also possible that we are following them into a trap. Nevertheless, we have made the decision to give chase and take this fight to Mulgor. I will no longer allow them to terrorize our trade routes or our bride ships. They’ve come uncomfortably close to Galaton. This will end now with us.”

  Cora looked up at him with so much admiration in her heart as he stood tall and strong. He was full of stately pride and royal majesty that it made her heart swell with joy just to see him lead the armada like this. She couldn’t believe that she was this man’s bride.

  She was now a Princess of Galaton. But she was only a princess because of Magmus. He imbued her with his strength and his glory. Just to be in his presence was a thing of beauty. She couldn’t believe she got to be the wife of a man like this. Only a few months ago, back on Earth, she never would have imagined that she could have any of this. She’d lived her life, day to day, tending to the greenhouses in the bio-dome region of Missouri.

  Now she was traveling through space with a military armada, chasing down the Draconians' ancient enemies. She gripped her belly as her baby stirred within her.

  “You should sit down while we jump into the next system,” Magmus said.

  They went to sit at the stately sitting area that looked out onto the view. As the warp drive took them into the next solar system, Magmus wrapped his arm around her and held her close. When they arrived in the next system, the Mulgor were already retreating to the opposite edge.

  “What now?” Cora asked.

  “Now we show them what it feels like to be hunted. But first,” he said in a husky voice, “we have unfinished business to attend to.”

  Magmus picked up Cora and carried her into the bathroom and set her down beside the tiled shower. He helped her out of her clothes and flicked his finger over the spot on his neck that made his uniform retract. They walked naked into the shower and he turned on the hot water.

  It began to stream from dozens of pulsing nozzles from the ceiling and walls. They stood together in an embrace under the warm streams. Magmus kissed her deeply for long moments as his hands roamed all over her body. He cupped her ass, grinding her against his thick erection.

  Cora knew that it was time. He was finally going to take her and claim her as his own. The claiming was much like a wedding ceremony done in private; a ritual between only the husband and wife.

  She felt his massive manhood thump against her chest and she leaned down to take the head into her mouth. Her wet hair fell around the sides of her face and Magmus brushed it back, gazing down at her from above as she sucked him. He drew a sharp breath through his teeth as he watched her lick all the way up his shaft.

  While she lapped up the beads of precum forming on the head of his cock, he lifted her up and carried her to a bench against the wall of the shower room. There were lotion bottles against the wall. He took one and knelt in front of her, squirting a handful of lotion into his palm. He rubbed his hands together and began to massage the scented oil into her chest. It smelled of intoxicating exotic flowers and sweet musk.

  He cupped her breasts and his thumbs flicked over her nipples. As he kissed her, he reached down to spread her legs. He covered her aching core with the fragrant oil, making her slippery and slick.

  He slid his fingers between her folds and caressed her swollen clit as he kissed her deeper and deeper. Cora groaned, gripping his cock with her tiny hand. She couldn’t reach halfway around the girth, but held him anyway, stroking up and down as her excitement grew.

  “I’m going to lick your cunt until you scream my name,” he growled into her ear.

  He dipped between her legs and spread them wide, exposing her opening and the tight bud of her clit under the round swell of her belly. He plunged into her channel and dragged his heavy tongue up over her clit. He first stroked the tight bundle of nerves, and then began to lick it vigorously at superhuman speed.

  Cora threw her head back as the rush of climax barreled toward her. Ever since they had first been together, Magmus had been rubbing his cum into her skin, causing her DNA to transform.

  Every day her body came closer and closer to being ready to take his massive cock. She knew that today was the day. With the Mulgor on the run and her prince giving chase, he’d still taken the time to dip his head between her legs and make her come.

  The orgasm surged toward her. Her nipples tightened as her pussy began to clench with release. She growled and ran her fingers through his hair as the warm water sprayed over her swollen breasts. The orgasm sent electric shocks through her entire body. Magmus looked up at her as the climax quaked through her, the flat of his tongue still on her wet pussy.

  He picked her up and carried her out of the shower. They stood under the quick-dry blowers that blasted warm air over her skin and hair, and were both dry in a matter of moments.

  Magmus carried her out of the bathroom and into their bedroom where he placed her on the bed. He grabbed another bottle of oil, but this time he began applying it to his throbbing, giant cock. Cora got up onto her knees and took the bottle of oil from his hands, squirting some into her own palm.

  She rubbed the fragrant oil up and down his cock, licking his head with her urgent tongue as she did. Once every square centimeter of his massive rod was covered in oil, he gently pushed her down on her back and climbed onto the bed over her. Her belly rose between them so he instead turned her over onto her hands and knees.

  “This is safer for the baby,” he said.

  He ran his tongue up her back and then licked her earlobe. It sent a shiver through her entire body as his slick shaft slid between her ass cheeks. He rubbed up and down over her flesh and slid his cock under her, making it thump against her sensitive clit.

  Her arms and legs were like jello, and she could barely keep herself up. He gripped her hips and pushed the head of his wide cock against her tiny opening. She leaned down on her elbows and bit the pillow in front of her, ready to take her giant man inside her little pussy.

  “I’m going to take you now Cora,” he said in a deep voice.

  He pressed against her opening, pushing through her folds and sinking slightly inside her. She gasped at the size of him as he began stretching her tight core. Magmus pulled back after a moment and squirted more oil over her ass. It dripped between her folds and into her core, making her slick and without resistance. He pressed his massive cock against her narrow channel and popped inside. She groaned and bit harder on the pillow. Magmus inched inside her, her body stretching to accommodate him. She had been rearranged by his seed, her entire body transformed in order to take him just like this. He held her hips as he pushed slowly deeper. Cora panted, the mixture of pleasure and pain a heady concoction that intoxicated her senses and opened her mind to a new reality.

  Magmus pushed his massive shaft deeper and deeper, stretching her so wide she thought her mind might crack and her body might break in two. But instead of breaking her, he buried himself inside her lubricated cunt, making her whole.

  She let out a deep throated groan as he rested against her ass. She could feel his balls bobbing on her clit as he slowly drew back, holding on to her hips. He lubricated his cock again and when he pushed inside her a second time, he sank in smoothly.

  Pleasure shot through her like little burning darts. Soon she was on fire with his love. Her breasts hung under her and brushed over the soft blankets as Magmus mastered her body. He drew back again, and this time her body was fully ready to take the power of his thrust. When he found her open enough for his true passion, he thrust harder and harder. Cora groaned with pleasure, feeling her orgasm building at the base of her spine. After several long pumps, Magmus found his pace and was soon taking her like the
re was no tomorrow.

  Cora was sent spiraling into the galaxy, her mind awash with new sensations and pleasures. She felt the core of Magmus emerging from deep within her own soul. It was like her twin flame emerged from inside her for the first time.

  All the while, he was fucking her like a madman from behind, his big hands gripping her hips. He reached between her legs and flicked her clit as his huge cock thrust mercilessly into her soft core. His shaft brushed over her g-spot as his finger twisted over her clit. She came for him.

  Magmus growled behind her and leaned into her ear.

  “Yes, come on my cock,” he growled.

  His sharp teeth brushed over her neck and he widened his jaw. Without hesitation, he gripped her neck, his teeth sinking deep into her flesh with the claiming bite. In that instant, Cora came again, just as Magmus shot his cum into her channel.

  She felt the hot eruption of his seed pumping into her core. At the same time, she felt the connection between them building and binding, entwining them together. There was no longer any distance between them.

  Magma slowly pulled his dripping wet cock from between her legs, and they lay together on their bed. Their newly forming bond almost seemed visible as the energy twirled around them.

  “That was amazing,” she said, reaching out to touch his handsome face.

  His brown eyes gazed down at her and he reached over to kiss her. Magmus placed his hand on her swollen belly and felt the child kicking within.

  “Are you okay?” he asked.

  “I will always be okay as long as I’m with you. Now we’re closer than ever. Do you feel it?”

  “I feel you in my heart, right here,” he said, moving her hand to his chest.

  She felt his heart slamming against his sternum under her palm. She marveled at the vibration, knowing that it was her that made this huge bull of a man so full of emotion.

  “My little flower,” he said. “It is so good to feel you inside me. Like an unfolding bud newly bloomed at dawn.”
