Just the thought was enough to make him hard. His cock swelled as he remembered the brief glimpse he had gotten of Riley in her cat form. She was magnificent! She wasn't all lean muscle and sleek lines like the females of his world. She was nice and plump, with a rounded stomach that made his cat want to flip her onto her back so he could rub against it. She had been solid white with dark swirling lines of black through her coat and the beautiful blue eyes that made him feel like he was drowning every time he looked into them. Her face was framed by longer white hair that showcased the delicate lines of her face. His cat had gone wild. Unfortunately, Riley had taken one look at her front paw and fell over unconscious before he or his cat could do anything. Maybe he should have warned her what was about to happen instead of shifting and calling forth her cat before the door even finished closing all the way.
He glanced down and was surprised to see steady blue eyes gazing up at him in wonder and fear. He gently touched her cheek with a finger, stroking the silky skin. Neither one of them said anything as he sat holding her possessively against his body. He saw the confusion, the questions, and the wonder fighting each other as the magnitude of what happened flickered through her mind.
"Ever since I met you I have made one mistake after another," Vox admitted in a quiet voice. "I have never felt the emotions that you bring out in me. I have always been in control but with you that control disappears. My body burns for you all the time, Riley. I love listening to you, even when you are singing that gods-awful song. I love watching your eyes flash with fire or laughter. I love how protective and fierce you are for those you care about. I love how you are soft to the touch and the passion in you when I make love to you. Most of all, I love you more than life itself," Vox finished softly.
Riley blinked up at the most handsome, confusing, and unusual man she had ever met. He had totally turned her life upside down. He confused her with all the emotions he woke inside her when he was near and scared the hell out of her more than she had ever been before because she knew he had the power to break her heart. That was something she had protected ever since her mom took off all those years ago.
"Can you ever forgive me?" Vox whispered with regret. "Can you find it in your heart to at least give me another chance to not mess up?"
A smile tugged at the corner of her mouth as warmth filled her. "You love me?" she asked with a sparkle of hope in her eyes.
Vox closed his eyes for a moment before he opened them and sighed heavily. "With every fiber of me and my cat's being."
Riley reached up and tugged his mouth down to hers. She kissed him with everything she had inside her. She let all her fear, hope, and love flow into it, showing him everything that she didn't know how to express. Her lips caressed his, her tongue running along them until he opened to her. Her arms wrapped around his neck, pulling him off balance until he was lying over her.
He pulled back far enough to look down at her. Her eyes were shining brightly and a small smile curved her swollen lips. His eyes searched her face for anger, rejection, horror, but he saw none of that. Instead, he saw wonder, acceptance, and-love.
"You love us," he breathed out.
"I have from the first. I just couldn't believe I could be the heroine in the story. How could a guy like you want a smart-mouthed, maturely figured girl like me? You are one sexy alien, Vox d'Rojah," Riley admitted. "You could have any girl you wanted. Why would you want me?"
Vox threw back his head and laughed before he looked down at Riley with a huge grin on his face. "I love your smart mouth. I am never bored. Your mature figure is … " A deep purr rumbled from him as he glanced down at her overflowing breasts trying desperately to escape from the top she was wearing, and then down to her hips. He rubbed his swollen cock against her and chuckled when she gasped. "You are perfect. You are the only woman I want, Riley St. Claire from Denver, Colorado. You are the only one who can bring my blood to a boil. I would choose you over any other female," he vowed with a soft, rumbling growl.
Riley licked her bottom lip, moaning with need when her tongue was not the only one licking it. She was startled by the purr that escaped her as Vox's tongue touched hers, stroking it and her lip at the same time. She drew in a sharp breath as she felt his sharp teeth nip at it, her body arching in response.
"Vox?" she breathed out.
"Yes, my mate?" Vox purred deeply, rubbing his hips back and forth against her.
"Can I … Did I … turn into a cat?" Riley asked hesitantly.
Vox pulled back with a wicked smile on his lips. "Yes, you can and you did. You are a beautiful cat, Riley."
Riley's eyes widened in shock before she bit her bottom lip. "Can I do it again?" she asked anxiously.
"Would you like to?" Vox asked cautiously.
Riley thought for a minute before nodding shyly. "Yes. Yes, I think I would like to try it again very much," she said determinedly.
"Then come to me, my mate," Vox growled out in a low, gravelly voice that pulled at something deep inside her.
Vox rolled away from Riley, shifting as he did until his massive cat lay watching her intently. Riley felt her body tingling all over before she rolled over as a shimmering light engulfed her. She felt the shift as it flooded her. This time she embraced it. A sense of relief poured through her as she let her cat out.
Yes! Her cat purred. At last!
What the fuck? Riley gasped, startled.
Oh, I plan to do that too, her cat responded with a deep purr.
Riley gaped at her cat. You shameless little hussy.
Not hussy-pussy! Her cat purred, turning her back to Vox and flicking her tail back and forth seductively.
Holy shit, Riley breathed as the heat she had experienced burst into a raging inferno.
Her cat stood up and stretched, putting her front paws out in front of her and lowering her head at the same time she rose up on her back legs flicking her tail. A loud rumble filled the training room as Vox watched his mate. The scent of her heat slammed into him like a wave crashing onto the cliffs. A loud snarl burst from him as he crouched and moved into position to pin her. Riley rose up and shook her larger body. White hair shimmered as it rippled back and forth with the movement. Her beautifully sculpted head turned, and her lip pulled back just enough for her to flash her teeth in warning. Vox advanced on her slowly, his larger body throbbing with need and desire as his cat watched his mate tease him. She was playing a very dangerous game. He knew she didn't have a clue as to what she was doing, but her cat probably did. That damn tail of hers was practically begging him to snatch her and mount her. A low growl of warning escaped him as she flashed her teeth at him again. Her cat wanted to play hard to get. That was not going to happen. He had caged his own leopard too long to deny it any longer.
Riley turned as Vox charged at her. She swatted at him with her paw, but the blow didn't even faze him as he knocked her over onto her side, pinning her by the neck. She tried to get her back legs up under his belly to throw him off, but he growled in a low, dangerous tone that froze her. He kept his grip on her neck as he straddled her body with his bigger one. Riley shivered as she felt his thick, heavy cock brush along her belly.
Vox? she breathed nervously.
I won't hurt you, Riley. Let my cat take his mate. He needs her like I need you, Vox's low rumble whispered across her mind.
I can speak and understand cat? she asked as she let her head fall back against the padded mat.
Vox coughed out in a deep, gruff sound that tickled the fur near her ear. Riley hissed as he loosened his grip enough for her to roll over. She thought he was going to let her get up but instead the moment she was on her belly, he bit down on her again, placing his two front paws on either side of her shoulders while he pushed her head down closer to the mat. She snarled when his thick cock slid deep into her. He began rocking back and forth, taking her hard. Riley ignored the tearing of the mat as she dug her claws into the padded material. She hissed, arching her back so that he could drive into her even deeper as pleasure and warmth flooded her.
Her body jerked as spasms rocked her world. She let out a loud, wild cry that would have scared her if not for the pleasure sweeping through her in endless waves of ecstasy. A few more strokes and Vox's loud roar shook the weapons on the wall. The huge male was locked to the smaller female caged under him as his body felt the ultimate release.
Mine! his cat roared. My mate, my mate, he snarled over and over.
I love you, Riley purred out as her body melted down onto the matting. Please, don't ever let me go.
Vox licked the fur around her muzzle gently, cleaning her with his rough tongue. Never, my fierce kitten. Never will I let you go.
