Kidnapping Casey Page 13


"A jumper?"

"A small craft designed for speed to transport our warriors from one place to another.

Usually this craft is used to transport our injured or to get us to battle quickly. There are only ten living quarters that are private and one crew room they share and it only has two decks. This is the largest living quarter on the jumper that I took from the captain since I'm Argis. I wanted more privacy that is afforded to me on the jumper than on the larger ship we use for distance travel."

"And Argis means what?"

"I told you. My father leads Zorn. Argis is a title of my family. Argis is..." He paused, his mind working, before he shrugged. "It is my family status on my planet. My brothers and I are all Argis."

"Do you have sisters?"

"Yes."

"Are they Argis as well?"

He shook his head. "Bratha. That is their designation. It means the female of my family.

My mother is BrathaAlluwn. Her name is Alluwn. My sisters are--"

"I understand."

He grinned. "Do you understand how much I want you?" His gaze raked down her body.

Casey's body responded to the hunger glowing in his eyes. "Yes, Argernon."

Large warm hands reached for her, gripping her waist as he lifted her over the edge of the shower stall. It just had a rim to keep the water from pouring out on the floor. The water came driving down like rain instead of from a single stream. Argernon made the flow start by reaching up to wave his hand in the air. He grinned as Casey gasped in surprise at the sudden soaking of warm water.

"Sorry. I startled you."

The water was coming down so she couldn't look up at him. She pushed her wet brown hair out of her face and lifted her hand to protect water from running in her eyes as she looked at his chest.

"How do you see?"

He chuckled. "They aren't meant for sharing. They are meant to clean up fast. We will wait for sharing our bodies when we get out. Just stand there to get unsoiled. The water will wash us with chemicals in it but do not swallow it or it will make you sick. It cleans your skin and hair."

She let the water pour down her but moved closer to Argernon's body. He moved his hands on her hips, brushing his palms on her skin. One hand left her to wave the air above them to stop the water from pouring down. Casey wiped at her face with her hands so she could look up at him. He tossed his wet hair back. She stared up at his strong features realizing just how handsome he was even if he wasn't human. As far as aliens went he was damn fine looking.

"I want inside you now. Close your eyes and do not startle. You will feel heat."

He reached over to push on part of the shower wall. Casey heard a click and shut her eyes. She gasped as hot air hit her from above and from the sides. It was like being in a wind tunnel of blasting heat. If someone hooked up fifty blow dryers in different locations it was a close comparison. The water started to dry on her skin. The air blasts suddenly shut off. She opened her eyes to look at Argernon.

He was grinning. "It doesn't dry hair but if you push the button enough it will. You do not want to do that though. It will make your skin dry and itchy." He reached for her again to brush his fingertips over her skin. "You are so pale and soft. Your skin is delicate."

Biting her lip, Casey eyed him. She let her teeth release. "Are we going to talk or are you going to take me to your bed?"

A grin split his face. "Follow me." He let his hand slide to her hand to grip it. He tugged at her to follow him out of the bathroom. "Let's go."

She followed him back to the sleeping area. It was a big bed, longer than a standard king-size bed but it was just as wide. A muscular arm hooked around her waist as Argernon suddenly spun to face her. She gasped as he jerked her off her feet, just tossing her so she landed on her back on the bed with a bounce. His gaze locked with Casey's.

"I saw a monitoring of one of my kind having sex with a human woman. Your sex is slightly different from women of my world. I want to learn everything about your body and I want you to learn about mine. I am slightly different from your human men."

Excitement hit Casey. "Okay. I'm game."

He blinked and arched an eyebrow.

"I'm game is a slang term for I want to learn about you. It means I'm in, I want to do that."

He chuckled. "Good because we are doing a lot of it."

 

Chapter Four

Argernon climbed on the bed after Casey. He stretched out his six-foot-five body on the bed next to her. Casey rolled on her side to face him until just inches separated them. She let her eyes slowly scan down his body to take in every detail of his naturally tan skin. She wet her lips.

Argernon was totally lickable in her book. She just couldn't decide where to start.

A grin split his lips. "How am I different from your human men?"

"Your features are slightly different." She reached over to trace his nose with her fingertip lightly. "Definitely different there. You have sharp teeth and your lips are thicker. Your bone structure is stronger and more pronounced."

"Am I attractive to you? I find your nose to be attractive for a bump."

Casey laughed, nodding. He definitely was attractive to her. "My nose is a bump?"

"Definitely." His eyes went to her breasts. "I love your pale skin."

"Aren't any of your people this white?"

He shook his head. "Never. I like that your body is much softer to look upon than our women." His hand spread on her slightly rounded stomach as he rubbed her skin there. "You are very soft to touch as well."
