Burning Up Flint Page 29


bed but he caught them before they tumbled. “Wrap around me,” he ordered her, “and hold on tight.”

She wrapped her legs around his waist, locking her ankles behind his back. Her arms wound around his neck. Flint pushed up from the bed, taking her with him. The guy was strong to do a literal push-up with her body clinging to his. He moved them to the center of the bed and eased them down. He entered Mira when her back gently touched the bed again.

Mira threw her head back as Flint drove deep inside her. The sensation of the sudden entry was staggering and intense. The moan that tore from her didn’t even sound human. It is fitting , her mind whispered. She didn’t feel human. She reacted like an animal in desperate need as Flint used his strong body to plow in and out of her. He wasn’t gentle but he wasn’t brutal. He spread his thighs, pushing into her deeper, at a new angle, and he hit her G-spot with force and speed.

Mira screamed his name as she came violently minutes later. Flint tensed as he snarled her name when he came, pumping into her in jerky short motions as his release poured into her body in heated spurts. He groaned her name again as the last jerk made him shake over her.

“You’re mine,” he panted. “I will never let you go. Never.”

She shut her eyes. Mira’s body, locked around his, started to relax, going limp. She let her legs unwrap from around him and she let go of his neck. She felt the loss as he withdrew to roll off her. He lay on his side facing her. She turned her head to meet his gaze. His face was relaxed as he smiled at her.

“Lights out,” Flint ordered the room computer, making it go dark again. “We’ll work on getting along better,” Flint said softly. “Sleep well, Mira.”

She rolled on her side, facing away from him. The sex was great between them but it wasn’t worth the cost of her pride or getting her heart broken. He was never going to return her feelings. The longer she stayed with him the more she’d grow to care for him. What would happen when he grew tired of her?

Would he trade her off to someone then? She was just property after all. All boys got tired of their toys at some point, especially if there wasn’t a bond. It really hurt.

She listened as his breathing changed, knowing he’d fallen asleep. She lay there unable to sleep. She finally turned and blindly reached for him. Her hands encountered hot bare skin. She inched forward and curled into his body, facing him. He woke for a moment when she nuzzled his chest with her cheek. He chuckled softly, a strong arm slid around her when he realized she was the source of what woke him. His breathing slowed again.

She lay there for hours, enjoying him holding her. He didn’t move in his sleep. His breathing was slow and he didn’t snore. She drifted in and out of light sleep, awakening when the automated lights came on at the end of his programmed sleep cycle and something beeped in the room. Flint woke instantly, releasing her as he sat up. He smiled before climbing out of bed. The beeping stopped the second he was on his feet. The room computer knew he was awake so it shut off.

Mira stayed in bed, watching him silently as he used the cleaning unit then got dressed. She wanted to memorize every inch of him. He gave her another smile.

“I will be gone for a few hours. I’ll have Drakos bring you breakfast. Do not let him inside the room.”

“You’ll be in Control?”

He shook his head. “We’re going after the Piera . Vollus will have control of the Star while I command the Rally . I promised Iron a human of his own and he wants to look them over and choose one himself. I ordered this mission so I have to lead it.”

A sense of worry hit her. “Are you going to be in danger?”

He shook his head, chuckling. “No. The Rally is heavily shielded. The Piera is no match for it. This will be an easy raid so there is no reason for you to feel concern. I will be back in a few hours. Use the cleaning unit and dress in the clothing I had made for you. I don’t want Drakos to
