Kael had, however, she caught his wrist and guided his finger to it, rubbing his fingertip against the tiny bud. He caught the motion very quickly and teased it until she was panting for breath. As he moved to her other breast, he slipped his hand further along her cleft and pushed a finger inside of her, rubbing her clit with the heel of his hand as he sawed his finger back and forth along her channel.
She ‟ d begun to anticipate her climax when he released her nipple from captivity and removed his hand. She made a sound of protest and then sucked in a sharp breath as he found the nub with his tongue. She struggled with the urge to moan in pleasure, gripping his head as he gripped her buttocks in both his hands to hold her for his teasing tongue. She couldn ‟ t remember ever feeling anything as glorious in her life. She hit her zenith within moments, gasping as the sharp convulsions rippled through her. It seemed to make the climax all the more powerful that she was forced by circumstances and the lack of privacy to try to hold it inside. It was all she could do to remain on her feet once the spasms finally ceased.
She reached for him when he stood, though, blindly searching her way to his loincloth and hooking her fingers in the waist. “Let me do that for you,” she whispered.
He removed her fingers, pulling her close, stroking her back soothingly. “I wait, shimone. Tomorrow, I please mine lover more.”
Loren swallowed with an effort, far less happy about coming when he wouldn ‟ t let her please him in return, feeling a terrible fear assail her that something would happen to him and she would never get the chance. “Please? I want to.”
He cupped her face and guided her upward to meet her mouth in a hungry kiss that rivaled Dakaar ‟ s. “Fight first,” he said huskily when he broke the kiss. He didn ‟ t release her. He seemed to hesitate over something that was bothering him. “Know is not polite to ask, but need know, shimone. No can risk spawning young in dis place. When is de spawning time for you?”
Loren stared blankly at the dark shadow where she thought his face was. “What?”
“No can give baby,” he said a little impatiently. “Need know.”
A jolt went through her as that sank in. He was worried about getting her pregnant? “You can ‟ t get me pregnant,” she said, but it was more horror at the thought and a denial of any possibility whatsoever than a statement she knew to be a fact.
He seemed satisfied, however. He kissed her again, briefly, and released her. Disappointed and anxious when he left, she stood at the bars for several moments, listening to his tread as he walked away. The doubts that she ‟ d entertained that he could see in the dark as he claimed vanished. There was no hesitation, no stumbling. His tread was as sure as if the place didn ‟ t look like the inside of a cave. Finally, she turned and made her way blindly to her own bed, bending at the waist and waving her arms in search of the bed. She found it with her shin and fell in.
She didn ‟ t realize until she had that she ‟ d left her toga where Balen had dropped it. After a brief debate over whether to get up and search for it, she pulled her blanket up instead. Curling on her side, she closed her eyes since she couldn ‟ t see anyway. Her body was still sparking and tingling from her climax and yet, as drained she ‟ d felt immediately afterward, the sense of satisfaction had disappeared with his refusal to allow her to give him release.

As unhappy as it made her to think he just hadn ‟ t been interested, it made her more unhappy when she finally recalled that men, earth men, seemed to think it weakened themto have sex before any sort of challenge. Maybe it did and maybe it didn ‟ t, but it certainly wasn ‟ t any comfort to think they might be concerned that a release the night before the games would weaken them and put them in danger.
She dwelt over that for a while but eventually
