Sons of Amber
Especially his heart.
    But there were so many obstacles, not the least of which was the role he had been designed and bred to perform. If she understood him correctly, he was some kind of intergalactic super stud, sent out among the remnants of humanity to service any and all females who wanted his sperm. In one way, the thought disgusted her, but in another more perverse part of her psyche, the thought was tantalizing. To think that she held him—this man whom so many women desired—and he was with her. Not normally given to vanity, the feeling of pride sat uncomfortably in her mind, as did the jealousy.
    Angela felt like scratching the eyes out of any woman who'd had him before. She wanted to mark him, to stake her claim and let all other females know that while they might bear his children, they would never have his heart. His heart was hers alone.
    Or so she dreamed.
    Her dreams spoke of love everlasting, but she had yet to discover whether these were prophetic dreams so common to many of her people, or just dreams of what her 19
     
     
    inner self wished could be. She prayed the dreams would come to pass. She prayed mightily that she could keep Ezekiel in her life—and in her bed—where he belonged.
    Never before had she felt such a strong, deep, and instant connection in her soul for any other person, male or female.
    She knew the moment she saw him, baking under the sun and close to death, that he was simply hers. Just as she was his. They were fated to be together, their hearts and souls entwined. Now she just had to see if her thoughts and hopes could truly be reality or if they were just foolish dreams.
    Then there was his duty as a Son of Amber to contend with. How could she claim the sole attentions of a male so important to the survival of the entire human species?
    Was it fair of her to want to keep him for herself? Was it even possible? Only time would tell, and those whose authority would make the decision to separate them and send him away, or let him stay and be with her.
    There was also the all-important question too of whether he would want to stay.
    Could she be misreading his responses? She had little experience of men, but she thought she felt possessiveness and care in his every movement against her, his every embrace.
    Still he had yet to say the words. Did he want her in his life on a long-term basis or was this just another pleasant interlude for him in his never-ending duties to fuck every woman he met?
    She thought not, but still the uncertainty lingered.
    Pushing the dreadful questions from her mind, she sighed as he woke behind her, his large body rubbing against her as he stretched.
    "What are you doing awake?" His deep voice rumbled sexily in her ear, making her shiver.
    Turning in his arms, she insinuated one of her legs between his, rubbing his reviving cock with her thigh. Her eyes teased him as a smile played about her lips.
    "I was waiting for you to wake up, Ezekiel. I was getting lonely without you inside me. I feel so empty."
    He grinned as he pulled her even more intimately against him. "That can be easily remedied, my little angel. You'll never be empty if I have anything to say about it."
    With a tender shove, he filled her, rocking them both gently this time to an explosive climax. They basked in the glow for long, long moments, staring deep into each other's eyes. Angela reveled in his soft caresses as he held her close and snuggled deep in her heart and soul. It was more than just a physical thing, she would stake her life on it.

    Sometime later, they dressed and made their way back up to the cockpit. Zeke ran a few more checks while introducing Angela to the various features of his ship. She browsed around while he worked, looking at the equipment and asking a few questions here and there that he enjoyed answering. She was bright and sharp as a tack. He liked her quick wit almost as much as he loved her supple body and giving, passionate nature. He
