After a bit, he huffed, letting me know he’d clued in about my plan, but since he liked using it too, he couldn’t complain.
“You are very patient today.” His adorable drama was enough to make me fight off a smile and he had to have felt my delight because he huffed again. “The building where I have lived has many roofs.”
Okay, now we were getting somewhere.
Roof sex?
That seemed naughty and like it could be vaguely dangerous, but not something I thought he’d be into, so I knew I was missing something.
Thankfully, he kept going without much drama that time.
“There is one smaller one. No. Shorter building. Yes. There is one shorter building with a pool on the top.” Some of the blanks were starting to get filled in, but I waited for him to fill in the rest. “My people use it for recreation. It is a peaceful place.”
Was he dawdling or was it information I needed to know?
The twirling started to spin faster, but that didn’t give me enough to go on.
“Several of my ship workers. No. There is another word. They still live in the building and are overwhelmed. Confused. Yes. That word, maybe.” Jerker’s struggle with words was the biggest clue that he wasn’t as calm as he was letting on. “They do not understand how beautiful human submission is. Several. They had disappointing first encounters with humans. It has stopped them? Frozen them?”
Oh.
“Stunted them. It stunted their emotional growth or their transition here.” And more pieces fell into place. “And you’re their captain, so you have to help.”
What did that mean to him, though?
“Yes, I must lead by example.” He was thoroughly confident about that and the hesitation that had been in his voice was gone. “That is how to lead.”
And he wanted to lead by showing his friends…what exactly?
We might’ve had a starting point and communication, but I wasn’t sure that was helping much in this case.
Chapter 16
I needed to be able to think.
“Master?” Being very careful, I kissed his torso and wiggled as I opened my eyes. “Help me sit up, please? I want to really be able to see your face clearly when we communicate.”
Somehow I’d ended up in a baby carry in his limbs and my body was really confused about what we were doing.
“I promise not to get upset or worried.” Moaning as his tentacle tightened its lollipop grip on my erection, my eyes nearly rolled back in my head. “I just can’t think like this. It feels too good.”
His teasing slowed, but he didn’t let me up quite yet. “Your body loses its worries when you are…mentally busy.”
I shouldn’t find his manipulation adorable, but I did.
“Thank you for trying to help me not to worry, but I have questions and need to be able to…to think.” Damn it. “I can’t think when you fuck my slit, Master.”
That was definitely cheating.
But he was so good at it…
No.
Doing my best to think calming thoughts and radiate curiosity, I scrunched my eyes closed and tried to ignore how good he was making me feel.
He sighed.
“You are very stubborn.”
And he was still very worried.
“As your Master, I will not let you worry if my touch can alleviate your stress.” That seemed to be a warning that we’d go back to having sex if I started to stress him out by stressing myself out, so I nodded even though it was ridiculous.
And cute.
Ugh.
We were totally going to end up having sex.
Okay. New goal.
More information must be gained before we continue having sex.
Yes, that seemed doable, and whatever I was radiating must’ve gotten my point across to Jerker because he actually sat me up and stopped playing with my dick. He didn’t let go of it, but I wasn’t asking for miracles, so I didn’t argue about it.
I even gave him a bright smile and a kiss on the cheek when he relaxed his hold on me enough that I could move on my own.
We’d definitely made progress when I could straddle his lower body and sit up without feeling like he was going to help me destress at any second. But I wasn’t sure how long my freedom would last, so I went right to the point.
“Let me see if I understood this right.” Because the pieces had been hard to put together with how careful he’d been. “You guys have a pool and you want us to hang out at it.”
He nodded and did his best to make it a very decisive gesture that was adorable.
No getting distracted by how cute he was.
Repeating that over and over, I smiled again. “I like pools. That sounds like fun.”
He started to take a breath and his limbs tightened on me again, but before he could start explaining and worrying, I jumped in again. “But we both know that if we start swimming around in water together, we’ll do human sex stuff.”
