Harliss (The Watchers Book 2) Page 8


  “Fuck. Harliss. Have to get inside you.” His breathing was erratic, his shirt hung open as she pulled at her bra. He grabbed her hands, moving them then ripped the lace garment down the middle of her breasts. He removed it and her shirt. He pulled his jeans down and reached for her breasts, pinching her nipples as she fought her own pants.

  “Help me, Micah. Get these off me.” He laughed as he helped to push her jeans down her legs, his lips finding one nipple as he bent down. His fingers slid up her leg and found her wet folds, pushing a finger deep inside. Her nails dug into his shoulders as she fought to hold herself up. He moved his hands to her waist and picked her up and turned to place her against the wall.

  “Put your legs around my waist. I am going to fuck you. Now.” She did as he demanded, her body hot and needing him in a way she had never needed him before. Her body was covered in a fine layer of perspiration, her pussy almost hurt from need as her Cougar paced inside her needing release.

  “Micah. Hurry. I hurt for you.” She was lifted a little higher just before he impaled her on his thick erection. She cried out in relief as his long, thick cock slammed into her. He held her against the wall as he moved in hard, quick movements. He covered her mouth with his, kissing her as he pounded hard into her body. She had to fight to break the kiss, not wanting to bite him as she screamed, her orgasm washing over her. It never seemed to end, her body winding up for another as she fought for air. Tingles started at the base of her spine and shot through every nerve as she came again. She heard Micah’s harsh breathing and low growling as he licked and nipped her neck all while fucking her hard.

  Her body wasn’t her own, as her nerve endings burned as she writhed between the wall and her mate. The next orgasm blended into the last as sweat trickled between her and Micah. He pushed against her, throwing his head back as the vibrations hit, sending her over the edge again. Darkness surrounded her, and her body started to go limp. She’d never passed out during sex before. Even as she was losing consciousness her body needed to come again and fear hit her hard.

  Micah held her tight as he panted from his own release, and Harliss ground her hips against him. “Micah. Something’s wrong. Oh goddess. I need to come again. This isn’t right.” Her body arched as her body exploded again. She felt him wrap his arms around her as she tried to catch her breath. She heard him calling her name as waves of darkness surrounded her and finally pulled her under.

  Micah felt panic settle in as he held his mate close. He laid her gently on the couch and began to examine her. She was naturally warm but her body was nearly burning up. Sweat covered her from head to toe and she seemed more ridged than anyone who was nonconscious should be. He pried one of her eyelids open and noticed the color of her eyes was all wrong. Instead of the light green color they were very bright yellow. The color of her Cougar. He grabbed his wrist commlink and messaged for Avery.

  “Hey Micah. I have to say I am surprised you contacted me. By the looks of you dancing with Harliss I though you would be busy.” The amusement in his voice only made Micah more upset.

  “Avery, do we have anyone here who is familiar with the individual Otronian Clans medical needs? Any of our people or hers who studied the specific medical needs of the Cougar? It’s an emergency.” He was in the bedroom pulling on a pair of sweats while looking for one of his t-shirts to put on her. No one would see her naked unless it was necessary.

  Concern laced his second’s voice. “I do not know. I will check the files and get back with you immediately.” The connection ended as Micah went to the bathroom to wet two washcloths. He grabbed the clothes he’d put on the bed and headed to the living area and began to clean the evidence of their passion from between her legs before putting on a pair of her underwear. He leaned in, kissing her forehead as he gently pulled her body up from the couch and putting his much too large t-shirt on her body. He placed the clean wet washcloth on her forehead before carrying the soiled one to the bathroom and tossing it in the sink.

  His wrist commlink beeped and Avery’s voice came over the device. “Micah, no one here has medical knowledge regarding the specific Clans of Otronians but we do have some of our staff who can come check on your mate. We also have a few members of the Cougar Clan who can offer insight.” Micah felt himself go slightly cold as fear ran down his spine and buzzed under his skin. His own Cougar was close to the surface. If any unmated males touched Harliss, he was afraid his Cougar would see it as a threat. He was so angry with his body for betraying him and his mate.

  “Send a female MedTech and a female Cougar if you can. I hate that it has to be that way. I will contact someone from her planet and have them come here.” At Avery’s acknowledgement, he cut the communication and sat with Harliss, wiping the sweat from her face with the washcloth and picked up her hand, bringing it to his chest.

  It seemed like hours before his door chime sounded. He reluctantly rose to admit the MedTech and whoever else came to help his mate. One female Being and two Otronians stood there. One Otronian was a male. The Cougar in Micah bristled. They all stepped back at Micah’s growl. “I asked for females only.” The male raised his hands and stepped back a few steps.

  “I’m only here to guard the door, Micah. I’m a Hunter so I’m just providing security. Avery didn’t know the issue and wanted to have your dwelling guarded. I’m not going to approach your mate.” The tension in Micah began to fade as he closed his eyes and nodded.

  “I am sorry. You two may enter. My mate is on the couch.” Micah opened his eyes to stare at the Otronian male. “Are you Cougar?”

  “Yes. I can answer your questions if you have them. I’m unmated and not looking for one. My Clan usually doesn’t mate at my age, but I can give you some guidance if you need it. My name is Enele. I’m not here as a participant in the program, but as a guard.” Micah realized the huge man kept his voice calm and quiet. “I can tell by your eyes and your tense muscles that your Cougar is feral and you are stressed. I can give you some breathing exercises we teach our people when they are going through training to help calm the beast within.” Avery must have told Enele what happened between him and Harliss. He knew why Avery took it upon himself to tell this to Enele, Micah didn’t have control of the Cougar in his blood. The Otronian would be in danger if he riled a stressed Cougar.

  “Perhaps another time. I must go check on my mate and contact Otron to bring a priestess to help bind me or lead me on a Spirit Walk. I can control the Cougar well enough with the females here, but I appreciate your help. I may ask for your guidance once I know Harliss is okay.” Micah relaxed slightly as the big man nodded and stepped into the hall, taking up position to guard his door. He inhaled deeply and blew it out as he backed into his quarters. He walked to the couch and looked down to his mate who was being attended by the women.

  “Do you know why she is so sick?” He saw the silver half sphere scanner covering her face and the Being female, Nancy, studying the small portable computer in her hands.

  “I am picking up extremely high numbers of sex hormones in her system. I assume you had intercourse with your female, but this would not explain the continual high numbers. These numbers are equivalent to her actively participating in the sex act.” She shook her head. “Nor would it explain why she is unconscious and remains so.”

  The young Otronian woman also looked confused. “Even if she was in heat, she’d not pass out and stay that way. How long have you been mated?” She looked up to Micah from her position next to Harliss on the couch. He noticed she was tenderly holding her Clanswoman’s hand and rubbing her forearm.

  “It is very new. We mated a few days ago. And, since I am Being, I seemed to have gotten male Cougar characteristics, but I do not have control of it yet. I feel helpless and I feel this deep need inside to protect her and care for her. I am calling Otron to speak with her family.” He turned to grab his portable computer and punched the buttons necessary to contact Aoki or Kai. The call was answered by Aoki who w
as smiling, as he usually was. For having wild beasts in their blood, the Otronians were the happiest humanoids in the universe.

  “Micah! I’m so glad you contacted us. We were just celebrating some good news. It seems Sahara is pregnant!” Micah was stunned to hear is former colleague was going to have a child. He could hear the party going on in the background. Laughter and drums sounded and he felt a longing to be with these people that he’d never experienced before. He felt Otron was home and he wanted to go there.

  “Aoki,” Micah’s voice broke as all the intense worry for Harliss and his uncontrolled Cougar overwhelmed him. Aoki suddenly frowned as he carried the device farther from the revelry going on behind him.

  “What’s happened, Micah? Do you need someone to come there?”

  Micah nodded as he sat down at the dining room table, trying to stop his out of control emotions. “Yes. Something is wrong with Harliss and I need help to control my Cougar and it needs to be soon. I have medical here along with a female Cougar. We were out enjoying dancing then we came home. She seemed overwhelmed by sexual need. She passed out and hasn’t regained consciousness. It’s not heat according to the females working on her.” He rubbed his hand over his face. “Aoki, I feel so—” he was interrupted by a sound of a loud growl and feminine screams.

  Micah ran to the couch where his mate was sitting up looking around with eyes open wide, her mouth open panting. He dropped the portable computer he had, not realizing he’d brought it with him. He moved the females out of the way to get to his mate, his Cougar going wild inside of him. “Harliss.” His voice was deeper than normal, his body reacting to her as he neared her on the couch. She looked up to see him and leaped from the couch into his arms. She wrapped her arms and legs around him, her entire body shaking. Her face burrowed to his neck as she sniffed deeply and purred. He felt her tongue lick him and her teeth nipped playfully.

  His cock began to harden. She smelled so hot and ready to take him. Part of him felt guilty, knowing she was sick but his body only knew his mate needed him. The female Cougar grabbed the female Being and backed away slowly. “She’s in heat but yet she’s not. She will attack us if she thinks we are too close to you.”

  Nancy threw several silver tubes on the couch. “These are sedatives. They are mild and you can give them to her when she gets overheated again. I do not know why she is not responding to treatments I tried but maybe her people can figure it out since they will understand her physiology better.” Micah felt his eyes close as Harliss began rubbing her heated core against his erection. “Sex with her may be the only way to calm her between her bouts of mania.”

  The female Cougar nodded. “It may be the only way to keep her calm. I’ve been in heat and we have ways to control the need but this seems unnatural.” Harliss turned her head and saw the women in the room. Her face showed her anger and jealousy. Her body stiffened as she prepared to leap at the women and attack. Micah tightened his grip on his mate.

  “Harliss, I am right here, sweetheart. Look at me.” She turned her head, her golden eyes raking over his features. Her face changed immediately to one of love and passion. “Good girl, Harliss, focus on me. I will take you to our room and take care of you.” He felt such tenderness and compassion for his mate. He stroked her back with one hand while holding her body against him with the other.

  He nodded to the women as they slowly backed out the door. “Micah,” Aoki’s voice came over the portable computer. He’d forgotten all about the call he’d placed. “Flynn, Charley, Shaela and I are on our way. We’ll be there within a few hours. We’ll have to land at the farmhouse. Do you want to bring her there or do you want us to come to you?” Micah could hardly think with his mate rubbing against him.

  “I had better come to you since I can get,” he groaned as Harliss nipped his earlobe, “life stabilizing serum. Fuck.” Harliss turned his head cupping the sides of his face, began to kiss him. He broke the kiss, panting. “I will leave here with her in an hour or so. I will sedate her before I leave. Do me a favor and end the call for me. I will see you soon.” He heard Aoki chuckle a moment before the screen went dark.

  Harliss was rubbing herself against him, reminding him of the first time they’d touched in the gym. Her hot, wet pussy was pressed against his aching, hard cock. Her body was straining, needing release. She was always so responsive to him, but he could tell it was more now. Her scent was strong and alluring, even overriding his own arousal scent. He knew he shouldn’t be so affected but his body was taking over. He had to have her, to taste her.

  He carried her to the bedroom, pulling the hem of her shirt up her body with one hand as he walked. He sat her on the bed and pulled the shirt the rest of the way off her body. He was trying to back away slightly but she fought to keep touching him. “Hold on, sweetheart, let me get us completely undressed first. It will be better for us.” She nodded as she leaned back on the bed, pulling her underwear off and spreading her legs wide open for him to see her swollen lips and clit. He moaned as he bent forward, pushing his sweatpants down his body. His face inches from her open pussy. He surprised himself when he felt himself rumbling deep in his chest but the sound wouldn’t stop. Was he purring?

  He tried to step out of his sweatpants but didn’t take the time as he grabbed her body pulling it to the edge of the bed toward his mouth. He wrapped his arms around her thighs to keep her in place as he buried his face in her warm center, her scent washing over him and the Cougar. He wanted to be gentle but neither she nor his inner cat could stop him from roughly ravaging her body with his tongue. He delved deep inside her, holding her tight as she bucked against him then he sucked her hard clit deep and lashed his tongue against her.

  Micah felt her hands tightly grip his hair, the pain only heightening the experience. He pushed his face harder against her, and his purring increased as he fought to bring her pleasure. Her sounds of moans and nonsensical words drove him harder. His body felt like it would split, his cock so hard he was sure it was going to shatter. He lost count of how many times his name came from her lips in an unearthly growl as her body arched and nearly came off the bed. He kept his hands on her body or he’d grab his cock and stroke until he shot his come. And he wanted to come so bad it was a driving beat in his veins.

  Unable to control his need he stood as he slowly kissed his was up her body, stopping to circle her bellybutton with his tongue. Her nipples were hard and begging to be sucked. Even in his hurry, he obeyed her body’s command and suckled each one as she screamed and pulled his body up, trying to impale herself on his cock. She reached between them, grasping his hardness, and pushed her body to meet his.

  “Okay, sweetheart, okay. I need inside you.” He pleased them both when he grabbed her hips and pushed in to her hard and fast. He was surprised he didn’t come in that one move. He felt his balls draw up even tighter as they contacted her body against her ass.

  He couldn’t hold still, he tried to move slower than his body demanded, trying to bring her pleasure. He thought about every mathematical equation he knew trying to focus on anything other than the pleasure of fucking his mate. The pure sweetness of the taste of her on his lips, the tight friction of her pussy around his cock. His hands couldn’t hold on to her hips as he looked down at her, while her breasts were bouncing with his pounding into her body.

  Releasing one hip, he brought his hand up and began to run his palm over her hardened nipples. First one, then the other. He lightened his touch so her nipples tickled his palm and he tried to focus on that feeling but her growls and groans pulled him back to her damn pussy, getting wetter with each stroke of his body inside her. He fingered one nipple, lightly twisting it, feeling it grow larger and pucker harder. He bent down and brought it into his mouth as she grabbed the hair at the nape of his neck then her nails scratched his skin lightly as she moved her hands to his shoulders.

  “I cannot hold back longer, Harliss. I need to come too much. Come baby, please come.” His last words became moans as
his balls refused to stop the oncoming orgasm. He slowed his movements as her hand came between them finding her clit with her fingers and pressing down hard and moving fast. Warmth gushed against his body as she arched her body and screamed in pleasure. He pushed into her hard, looking down at her hand rubbing her clit, her fingertips brushing the top of his cock, and felt a roar escape him as he emptied into her.

  Harliss’s body jerked as her fingers lightened their touch on her clit. Her middle finger tapped her hard nubbin gently as he felt her pussy clenching on his cock. He purred as her fingers played with herself picturing her doing this alone in her room before meeting him. He continued to slowly pump inside her unable to look away. Her clit was still swollen, his balls still tight. He knew there wasn’t much time before he had to leave but he couldn’t force himself from her body.

  “I’m almost there again, Micah. Just one more time.” Her voice sounded husky, deeper with passion and her Cougar. He pulled out farther as her fingers slid down on each side of his cock, squeezing together and pushing inside her vagina, making the fit even tighter for him. “Just one more.”

  He slid into her faster. “Keep playing with your clit, Harliss. That makes me want to come, picturing you doing that to yourself alone. Show me how you like it.” He heard her laugh.

  “Okay, but you need to return the favor one day. Show me how you would make yourself come.”

  He sped up again. “I will take you to the shower and pretend I am alone again, like I used to do before I met you.” He was all but panting now, while her fingers slid over her clit.

  “Did you masturbate a lot, Micah?”
