in
his hands. Thrust hard one last time, grinding himself against her, Mairi let
out a startled shriek as red-hot pleasure coursed through her. She
instinctively locked her legs around his lower back to hold him against her.
She was shuddering, her muscles squeezing Knollig’s shaft and with a groan, he
joined her. They both collapsed back against the mattress. Knollig against her
side, with her head tucked up under his chin.
    “Wow…” Mairi struggled to even her breathing. “That
was incredible.” Mairi moved her mouth to place tiny kisses against Knollig’s
chest.
    “Now I understand the desire for sexual contact.”
Knollig laughed, “It feels amazing. You make me feel strong and weak at the
same time.”
    “I will take that as a compliment.” Mairi snuggled
closer.
    “You should.” Knollig was rubbing his fingers in the
thick length of hair against his hand. “I want to know all about you Mairi so
that I can be a good mate.”
    Mairi thought only women wanted to talk after sex!
She wasn’t sure where the desire to chat was coming from, but she didn’t mind,
if he wanted to know about her she would tell him. “I was raised by both of my
grandparents for a few years after my mother disappeared. She left me with them
and just ran away. When my grandmother died, it was just me and my
grandfather.” Knollig was rubbing her back and it felt great. “When it came
time to leave for school I went to a place called America. Stayed there doing
the job I had trained for which was as a Radiology Technician. That is where
you use medical imaging systems we had. X-rays, mammograms, ultra sounds…that
kind of thing. It would be like your holographic medical system, only not as
advanced. We were able to do similar types of imagery, just a bit differently.”
    Mairi leaned up on one elbow as she talked, “I had
friends, but since I had moved back to Scotland to be closer to my grandfather,
I hadn’t been in touch for awhile. Life seems to get in the way sometimes. You
think that you will get in touch tomorrow, or the next day…before you know it
months have passed.” She moved her hand on his chest.
    “When I was diagnosed with cancer I had given up
hope of ever having a life like I had planned. Settling down with a husband,
having kids…everything had been slipping away from my grasp.” Mairi was getting
a sore neck, so moved to sit leaning against his hip. Her fingers played
absently with his abs, “When I woke up here, and you told me I had hundreds of
years to live…I guess I just wanted to get started with living them.” Mairi
moved her fingers to tease his chest, flicking a nail against his nipples and
watching them pebble. “I want to experience all that life has to offer. I know
that when you say that you want to be my mate, you are talking forever. That
doesn’t scare me…we do need to get to know each other better before claiming
mate status. We also need to talk about things like when you want children.”
    Knollig tensed, “Would you want to have offspring
with me right away?”
    Mairi thought about it for a minute, “I would like
to get adjusted to life with you first, then we can talk about babies. Let’s
say we talk about it again in six months when the other females are here and
settled, does that sound fair?”
    Knollig just nodded, his mega watt smile proving how
pleased he was at the idea of having children. “Yes my sweet Mairi, that is
fair. I would wait a hundred years for offspring if it would make you happy.” He
flexed his abs, and suddenly Mairi found herself in Knollig’s arms. He was
kissing her, and all thoughts about babies flew from her mind. Unless the act
of making them counted, she and Knollig were going to be practicing for when he
had the procedure reversed. From the look of passion burning in his eyes, they
were going to be practicing a lot!
