When he’d embarked on this quest, it had seemed impossible. Hunt, capture and mate a human female. He hadn’t wanted one. Didn’t know what he was missing. Things had changed. They had changed more quickly than he knew possible. He ached to be inside her again. He also longed to know more about her.

She smiled when he approached the bed. Her greedy eyes zoning in on his cock. Still hard enough to drill through lava rock. It couldn’t be helped. His need to have her again would ride him until she covered up. The way he was feeling right now, that might not even help.

She licked her lips and squirmed a little. She probably didn’t know she was doing it. She was more receptive than any female he had been with. She wanted him again. He wanted her just as much but it would have to wait.

Coal handed her the warm towel.

“Thank you.” She spread her thighs.

Lord help him. Her pussy glistened. He could see his seed in her, on her, dripping down her thighs. It made his cock twitch.

She looked at him from under her lashes as she wiped herself. Someone had once said that human females were timid and easily frightened. Not this one. Not his female. He planned on making her his.

Coal slid in next to her and pulled her against him. He felt her tense. “I don’t cuddle and I still would prefer it if you slept on the floor.”

What?

It was like he had made no progress. Sex was okay but anything else remotely intimate was off the cards. He tightened his arm around her, loving the feel of her against him. He palmed one of her breasts. “We will be rutting again soon.” He pushed his cock up against her. It throbbed between them.

Coal felt her relax.

“Rest a bit. We can eat something and then I’m going to have you again.”

She didn’t say anything but she thrust out her ass and her nipples tightened. So receptive. Maybe he would rut her all night.

“Okay,” she sighed. “But we’re not in a relationship. This does not mean that we are going to hold hands or that I want you to mate me. I definitely don’t want kids so I’m not good mother material.” Her eyes widened for a moment like she shouldn’t have said that. He had noticed her do the same earlier. Coal was glad that she had confided in him.

At the same time, it cut him to hear her say such things. She had said that she wouldn’t make a good mother. It was utter rubbish. A female like Julie would be a good mother.

“Why don’t you want kids?”

She tensed. He waited for a while but she didn’t say anything.

“Tell me, please. I think you would make an excellent mother.”
