One Thousand Brides Read Online Free PDF Page B

absorbed millions of words uplinked from Earth computers about human anatomy. Intellectually, he knew what would sexually stimulate Janis. But would she really respond to a nonhuman?
    He’d realized a year ago that his people wouldn’t survive the journey without wives. After he’d made his report, the astrogation team went into overdrive, searching for planets with females who could fulfill the need to mate.
    They’d all wanted to survive, to save their lives. They hadn’t expected more than that.
    They’d never thought to find enticing females who would stir their very souls.
    Delos gazed down at the achingly beautiful human, entranced by her soft white globes tipped with dark pink circles. While he’d seen many of the Brides naked, it was one thing to treat them professionally, quite another to lie beside his chosen one in bed.
    He’d been longing to touch her breasts, feel their softness, stroke those enticing nipples. But he’d held back, not wanting to startle her.
    Now she’d told him she wanted his touch. Excitement raced through him.
    He took her right breast in his hand, caressing the nipple with his thumb. She murmured deep in her throat and his organ stirred.
    He slid down on the bed. Still toying with her right breast, he took her left breast in his mouth, savoring the warm, slightly salty taste of her skin. Flicking the tip of her nipple with his tongue, he growled with satisfaction. She gave out a little cry that excited him beyond bearing. He licked her nipple again while his thumb and forefinger rolled her other nipple between them.
    “Yes. That’s good,” she gasped.
    He closed his lips over her left breast and sucked, drawing her nipple into his mouth. It was hotter than the rest of her flesh and as he licked and teased, the tender flesh grew and lengthened. He raised his head, fascinated by the way it had doubled in size in a few moments. Her engorged nipple was as deeply pink as the berries on a jorem plant—and tastier.
    “Are all human females as responsive as you?” he asked.
    She stared back at him for a long moment. Confusion crossed her face. “I’ve always enjoyed sex…but I’ve never felt this way before.” Her fingers slid into his hair, caressing his scalp. “You’re not going to do this with anyone else?”
    “Don’t worry about that,” he said fervently. He had the distinct feeling she’d already spoiled him for any other female. Enticing as some of the other Brides had seemed at first, now he knew he’d found his true mate.
    And that would be a problem, if Taddus claimed her. When Taddus claimed her.
    He didn’t want to think about the big primus now. His only aim was to give Janis such pleasure that she’d never forget him.
    He licked the soft skin between her breasts. “Don’t stop,” she gasped. She stroked his neck and shoulder, her fingers trailing desire wherever she touched. He shivered.
    Remember your vow. No one mates until the Spring Running.
    But he couldn’t help imagining how it would ease him to plunge his throbbing penis into her slick channel.
    This is for her tonight, not for you. But he’d never wanted to mate so badly before. Doubt shook him. Could he keep his vow?
    He wanted to caress her female pelt until she parted her legs. He’d breathe deeply, inhaling more of her fragrant arousal. Then he’d rub the head of his organ against her labia. Would she moan? Beg him to mate with her? Nothing would feel better than that first hard, hot thrust.
    Stop thinking about mounting her. Concentrate on pleasing her.
    “Do you enjoy it when I suck your nipples?”
    “Yes, Delos—more!”
    He put his arm around her shoulders and turned her toward him. The bed shifted slightly to brace her in this new position. He closed his lips over her right breast, already swollen from the caress of his fingers and sucked hard. Her breathing changed.
    She moved her hips restlessly. “Delos. Touch me.”
    He looked up from the tender flesh of her nipple long
