His to Protect Read online

  “We are safe here,” I keep hearing in my mind. It’s great that he can connect telepathically to me, but really, a genuine conversation would be great. Ka’el looks so powerful, his body reflecting masculinity at its highest. He saved me and I wonder why he has done it? Why did the other males try to attack us? So many questions and yet so few answers. I should be scared and horrified. After all, I am on an alien planet, almost got killed by a savage beast, lost my friend… cold, hungry, thirsty. But strange enough, I feel safe and at peace with Ka’el, my alien hero. I have faith that he’ll help me find Emma. I won’t be able to live with myself if I don’t save her too.

  Ka’el waves at me, signaling to get off the ship. Inside, it’s warm and comfortable. I grit my teeth, shivering at the thought of being in the severe cold outside. “I’m too cold to go outside again,” I rub my arms and try to tell him. He looks at me with his gorgeous eyes, puzzled, not able to understand a word. He turns toward the control panel and says something in his language. The computer responds in the same alien language. Ka’el turns his head facing me and invites me to get near.

  I drift toward the front of the spacecraft and Ka’el takes my hand, his other hand gently touching my right shoulder. He guides my body and invites me to sit in front of the control panel. “Do not be afraid,” I can hear in my mind’s ear. I sit and close my eyes, not knowing what to expect. I’m not afraid, in fact, I feel relaxed and I know I can trust Ka’el. After all, he saved me from the others.

  Ka’el says something to the computer, and it responds to him. A second after that, a crystal emerges with a growing light inside it. My breath quickens as I see the crystal approaches my forehead in slow motion. I turn to Ka’el, eyes wide open. “What’s going on? What's this?” He takes my hand and brushes his fingers over it, gently caressing against my skin. His touch is soft and reassuring. He reaches for my eyes and slowly closes my eyelids. I keep my eyes closed, but deep down inside I am so worried and afraid. I can even hear my heartbeats. I can feel the crystal approach, a relaxing warmth inundating my head. In an instant, the crystal touches my forehead and this incredible vibration and heat makes my head pulsate.

  Everything gets slowed down, sensations, sounds, feelings. I try to open my eyes but it's so hard and I just give up. My mind floods with images, sounds, words of unknown meaning, emotions and feelings. It's like millions of memories flashing through in a second. A terrible headache takes over and I lose balance. It's too much. I can't take it anymore. Then everything stops, all the pictures, all the words, sounds, all the feelings stop. Everything is silent.

  ***

  My body feels so warm and cozy. I must have slept for a while, but the terrible headache is still there. I force my lids open and look around. I am covered with a thick animal fur, my body resting on the floor. For a second I thought I’ve just woken up in my bed, back on Earth. Reality strikes when my mind is invaded by all these memories that seem so foreign, and yet they're in my mind. Valkrya… this word or name pops up into my thoughts. I turn my head from side to side, looking for Ka’el. The room is bright and the walls appear to be made of stone. I gaze at the pictures drawn on the walls… exactly like the ones back in the Mayan pyramid. It’s so strange and then it hits me… these aliens landed on Earth and initiated contact with the Maya civilization. My head feels so heavy and dizzy. I’ve just discovered the truth I’ve been looking for years and I’m here stranded on an alien planet. Just my luck!

  “Ka’el,” I call the alien’s name. He’s not here. Has he left me all by myself in this strange place? I get up and push the fur aside, but the incredible cold makes my body shiver. I don’t know how much longer I can keep going. I’m so cold and hungry. I have eaten nothing in a while. I can barely feel my fingers. I stretch out my hands and notice what seems to be the beginning of frostbite. That’s just great. It’s just what I needed. I slide under the furs again to keep my body warm. “Ka’el,” I call again, hoping he will hear me.

  I close my eyes and try to get some rest but my aching body doesn’t allow me, the shivers I feel getting in the way. I guess my body is shutting down and I fear I might even die. I am at peace with this; I don’t fear death, but I think I’m just not ready to let go yet. I still have things to achieve; I want to feel loved and appreciated. I fear I’ve wasted my life, and I overlooked the things that really matter. A buzzing sound brings me back to reality. Two sliding doors open and Ka’el enters the room. My heart pounds at the sight of him. Strangely, I’m very attracted to this alien male. He may not look all human, but he’s HOT.

  “Jessica, you’re awake,” he says as he approaches me. What? That didn’t feel like a telepathic message. It is him, speaking in his language, and I can understand him. I’m confused. Am I dreaming? Is this real?

  “Ah, yeah… I’m just so cold and hungry.” I speak to him, but not in English. I speak in a language I don’t recognize. And yet, the words just come so easily to me. “But, how is it possible?”

  “What do you mean? The language? Ah, remember when we landed in this place? I asked you to approach the control panel in the spaceship… well, the computer downloaded information to your mind. The crystal connected to your brain wave and created new neurological synapses.”

  “That’s amazing… I never thought it was possible” I say. He approaches me and puts his hand on my forehead. His touch is so warm. The light on his forehead flickers again as his hand touches my body.

  “You’re so cold. Let me help you heal your body. You seem to get frostbites.” He presses his hands on my chest and closes his eyes as the light on his forehead increases in intensity. His hands are so warm and relaxing and this incredible wave of warmth spreads throughout my body, reaching my extremities. I close my eyes too and let myself drift in this state of complete peace.

  “You should have healed now. Let me see,” he says and lifts the furs off my body to check my frostbites. “All good now and your body should be able to maintain a higher temperature for a while now. This will help you deal with the cold.”

  “Thank you! I… I really don’t know how to thank you, Ka’el.” I say to him and smile. It’s so strange. I’m here on this planet and this alien male treats better than any human man I’ve ever dated. Strangely, I find Ka’el very attractive. Yeah, I know… he’s blue, and he’s got some ridges on his face but that only contributes to his uniqueness and his rugged features only make him more masculine. His skin glows in the bright light filling the room, which makes his muscles even more pronounced. He’s got a body to die for, not a single ounce of fat.

  “It’s OK, Jessica. I would do anything for you.” He grabs my hand and takes it to his forehead. “It has chosen you as my mate and I couldn’t be happier.”

  “Wait a second… IT… CHOSEN me… MATE… what are you talking about?” I stand and feel my heart pounding in my throat, the veins on my temples pulsating with high velocity. This infuriates me. I’m nobody’s mate and for sure I’m not going to be chosen as if I don’t have a saying in this.

  “My kahuni has chosen you as my mate and thus we shall be united.” Ka’el tries to put his arm over my shoulder, but I push it away from my body.

  “Listen, Ka’el. I’m not your mate and I don’t care who or what chose me. I’m an independent woman, perfectly capable of having a saying in any kind of relationship. And what the hell is a KAHUNI?” I reply to him in an angry outburst of dissatisfaction with the whole situation.

  “This is my kahuni.” He points his finger to the light that keeps flickering ever since we’ve started this whole stupid conversation. I mean, he’s hot and all that, but really I don’t enjoy being called his mate. What the hell am I? A mate? Are we breeding or something? This seems unbelievable.

  "Don't be upset, Jessica. I didn't mean to offend you by any means. It's just how things happen on Valkrya. We have fated mates here. Our kahuni chooses for us," he tells me and tries to get near, his hands grabbing my waist as he pulls me close. I push him away and cross my arm
s, my anxiety still up.

  "I'm sorry I snapped at you like that. I'm just so stressed and… boy, I'm hungry… I could eat a cow." I say and uncross my arms. "It's strange… I don't feel cold anymore."

  "You should be fine for a few hours. Let me get you something to eat. I don't think it's gonna be a cow though. What's a cow?" The alien asks and rubs his big hands against my back in a gentle and soothing way.

  "You're funny… a cow is an animal back on Earth. Anyway, it's just my way of telling you I'm starving."

  Ka’el smiles and wraps his arms around me, pressing his massive body against mine. I feel so safe and relaxed in his arms. My mind tells me to step away, but my body remains still. I know I shouldn’t, but I enjoy the warmth of his body against mine. We’ve only known each other for such a brief time and yet he has this power over me. I tilt my head just a little, his hands wrapping my waist. My breath quickens, my blood pumping rapidly through my veins as his hands gently caress my hips.

  “What are you doing, Ka’el?” I ask him even if it’s exactly what I want him to do. I know he’s a blue alien with ridges on his face and body, with a little light that always flickers when he gets near me, but he’s gorgeous. His ripped body, his gentle mesmerizing eyes make me want him so badly. What I truly want is for him to rip my clothes off and fuck the hell out of me.

  The alien says nothing but continues to rub his hands over my body, making his way up to my breasts. I turn my body, facing him away, and guide his fingers to my nipples. I arch my back and feel his bulging cock pressing against my butt. I lower my hand and touch his inner thigh, moving slowly toward his cock. It’s like nothing I’ve ever touched before. It’s HUGE. Ka’el moans a bit as my hand touches his thick cock. Another moan escapes the alien’s mouth as he pushes his cock harder, rubbing it against my ass. A shiver runs down my spine, my body filled with excitement.

  Slowly I turn toward him, my hand rubbing his cock up and down.

  "Kiss me," I tell him. "Lower your head!" The alien lowers his head and I guide him to my lips. He moans as our lips touch and my tongue slides inside his mouth, circling his.

  "I want more." He kisses me harder, this time sliding his tongue deeper into my mouth as his hands caress the fullness of my buttocks. I breathe so heavily, tingles of pleasure running throughout my body. Gently, I slide my hand inside his pants and circle his cock with my fingers. His dick is thick and massive with the same ridges on his outer shaft. I want him inside me and I want him NOW.

  He takes me in his arms and heads for the furs lying on the floor. Gently he lays me down and reaches for my neck, his lips softly brushing against my skin. It feels so good. His hands caress my breasts, gently circling my nipples.

  “Ka’el!” I moan and arch my back, his lips going down, tracing my neckline. He tears my clothes with sexual passion and spreads my legs wide open. His big hands caress my inner thighs as his mouth tastes my juices flowing down. His tongue pushes in, hungrily circling my clit. I’m in heaven!

  He takes his pants off, revealing the nakedness of his body. He pushes himself against me, forcefully thrusting inside of me. I’ve never felt anything like this before. My entire body shivers with delight as his cock reaches deep inside me, the ridges on his shaft brushing against my clit. I’m in ecstasy. My body cries for MORE, DEEPER, FASTER. He pushes himself deeper between my legs, his hands rubbing my hardened nipples. Chills and shivers run down my spine, tingles between my legs, drops of perspiration down my forehead, delight through my veins.

  “Oh, fuck…”, I groan and moan as the biggest orgasm of my life sends electric impulses of absolute pleasure throughout my womanly body. This is by far the best sex I’ve ever had.

  Ka’el grins with delight as he sees me climax so noisily. He continues to fuck me faster and deeper until I can sense his warm cum filling my pussy. I squeeze my legs over his ass and trap him deep inside me. I don’t want this sensation to ever go away.

  “I like it when you moan like that. It tells me I have given you pleasure.” Ka’el rolls over, hugging me from behind. I feel embarrassed by his statement, but I can’t deny it.

  “You know how to please a woman. Have you had many girlfriends?” I guess he says that to all females he’s been with. Someone who can fuck you like that must’ve practiced a lot.

  “Girlfriends? I don’t know what you mean. Valkryans can only choose one mate for life. I have been with females before purely for pleasure, but never with a mate.” He kisses the back of my neck and holds me tighter. What? This guy is really something. Isn’t that the same thing? Aliens are so complicated. Hearing he’s been with others brings about a feeling of jealousy, but that fades quickly when he speaks of me as his mate.

  “Are you for real? Stop kidding me!” I giggle and turn to face him.

  “Have I said something funny?” He seems so serious as he looks at me with his gorgeous blue eyes.

  “No, never mind Ka’el. Now my big blue alien, what am I supposed to wear?” I point to the torn clothes lying on the floor. I cover myself with the fur, my body still warm from the intensity of our act.

  “Let me go look for something. There must be some old clothes left in the chambers of this place.” He stands up, not before kissing me again, and heads for the exit. He walks naked, the light making his toned body revealing each sculpted muscle.

  I pull the fur, covering my body and cuddle in a fetal position while waiting for my alien. He’s given me so much pleasure and he protects me like no one has ever protected me before. I feel safe and relaxed around him. My thoughts wander to Emma. Is she still alive? How could I forget about her? I’m here safe and enjoying myself while she’s God knows where… if she’s still alive. A feeling of guilt strikes my entire being, my cheeks burning with remorse. I have to get back. I have to find her. She trusted me to keep her safe and I’ve failed.

  “I found something. It’s nothing fancy, but it’s all I could find.” Ka’el enters the room, holding a white robe. Well, that would do it. What other choice do I have? I can’t walk around naked. He hands me the robe and helps me get up.

  “You’re beautiful!” He caresses my arms while helping me put the robe on. I can feel my cheeks blushing and I feel embarrassed. I look down as if trying to hide my emotions. Nobody’s ever told me I’m beautiful, as sincere as he did. After all my failed relationships, I finally find the perfect man, and he’s from an alien planet. Who would’ve thought?

  “Are you gonna stay naked?” I giggle. Not that I mind it, but his perfect body distracts me from my intention of getting back to Emma.

  “Do you not like me? Do you find my body unattractive?” Ka’el seems upset with my remark.

  “No, on the contrary, big guy. I think you’re sexy but where I come from, people walk around dressed in clothes.”

  Chapter 5

  Ka'el

  The female seems upset. I wonder if I have given her enough pleasure. I help her put on the robe and seeing her naked body, her perfectly smooth skin gives me a heightened urge to mate her again. I have to refrain myself, but it's so difficult. She thinks I have been with many females before her, but she is my first real mate. I have enjoyed carnal pleasures before, but not with a mate. That’s something else, more profound. On Valkrya we choose a mate for life.

  "Thank you," she says to me and kisses my cheek. She’s nothing like Valkryan females and yet I'm so attracted to her. She fans her hair over her shoulders and adjusts her robe. It doesn't compliment her figure, but it was all I could find here. I think she would look stunning in a Valkryan dress, one fitted around her body.

  "My mate. You're mine and I couldn't be happier." I'm worried about it though. I don't know how the Council will accept her as my mate. And there's Sheerva, the queen and sole ruler of Valkrya who would never allow it even if the other members would agree. It upsets me to think about it, but she's mine and I won't allow anyone to break us up. I will fight them to the death and protect my female from all who dare to harm her.

 
; "Here you go again with the MATE thing. I'm not your mate, maybe your girlfriend or… let's just call it friends with benefits." She winks at me and gives me an enormous smile and a hug. I'm confused. She says she's not my mate, but she mated with me. Does she not want me as her mate?

  My kahuni healed her frostbites, but she looks pale and weak. I must bring her something to eat to regain her strength. She told me she was starving, but my urge to mate her was so strong that I completely forgot. We got carried away with the mating and lost track of time. She has not complained about being hungry since. I look at her, wondering what she is thinking about. She appears upset.

  “Have I upset you with anything, Jessica?” I go near her and lay my hand on her shoulder. She looks out the window at the emptiness of the terrain. She appears absent and troubled. I notice a tear running down her cheek and I wipe it with my finger. “What’s wrong?”

  “I’m sad and angry… I shouldn’t… You shouldn’t have saved me. Emma is all alone. God knows what happened to her!” She lowers her head and crosses her arms. “Ka’el, we need to go back. I need to find her. I can’t leave her. I promised I would take care of her.”

  “Do not worry about that now!” I know she suffers for her friend, the other female, Emma. I couldn’t save them both. They probably took her to the Council and the Queen. I only hope she’s still alive. Jessica cares about her and it would break her heart to find out they killed Emma. I fear she may have been examined in the lab or worse… killed. Jessica wants to go back and I have to support her decision. “You need some food to get your strength back.”

  “I could use some. What do you guys eat around here?”

  “In Hellion we have food synthesizers, devices able to replicate any food entered in its databases. We mainly eat Lordolian food. Lordolia is a neighboring planet and their food is divine. Unfortunately, there’s no such device here.” She seems disappointed, and it’s obvious that her hunger is getting to her health. I need to find something. I cannot go back to Hellion. Yes… I know. I’ll have to hunt a kashka, a large four-legged animal. They’re vicious creatures, but I’m smarter. I haven’t eaten their meat since I was a child, but I remember the sweetness of it. I’ll make a fire somewhere and we can cook it.
