ROMANCE: Lion Protector (Paranormal Shifter BBW Military Romance) (Shapeshifter Alpha Male Short Stories Book 2) (54 page)

Chapter 6

              They spent a few weeks at Aurelianus’ home.  It was a dismal experience as everywhere they looked the situation was getting worse.  From recent reports the plague had wiped out about half of the alien population and the rate of mortality seemed to be growing exponentially.  It was only a matter of time until the whole planet was killed off by this mysterious disease. 

              Varius and his Antica, however, had been lucky.  They were able to avoid the disease and find enough food in order to satisfy all of their stomachs.  During their time together, they also grew closer to Aurelianus.  He was a gruff and rough-edged individual, but he did have his moments of compassion.  He was by no means a softie, but he wasn’t always a heartless brute. 

              Every day, Emma found herself being drawn toward Aurelianus.  She tried to stay away from him at first, but there was something about him that made her heart skip a beat.  Whenever he was next to her, her hormones went wild and if they ever happened to touch, it was like electricity surging through her body.  Emma didn’t know how to explain her feelings, but it was getting harder and harder to keep them locked away deep inside of her. 

              She didn’t want to be unfaithful to her husband, but at the same time, she didn’t know how much longer she would be able to keep up a disinterested act.  It felt like someone was stabbing her through the chest anytime she had to pry herself away from Aurelianus.  Sometimes she contemplated running far away from him just to keep her good name, but she never found the courage to do such a thing at the end of the day. 

              Instead, she went through the days acting like nothing was bothering her.  She pretended to be a loving and faithful wife to her husband. 

Chapter 7

As this charade went on, tragedy hit the family.  One day, Antica came down with all of the symptoms of the plague.  Soon enough it was apparent that she had succumbed to the disease.  She looked pale and sickly and the bright yellow color of her eyes was slowly fading from its proper place. 

              Emma was sitting by Antica’s bedside now, gently squeezing her hand.  “You’re going to be okay sweetie.  I promise.”  Emma looked at her sternly, keeping back the tears that threatened to spill from her eyes.  Antica looked at her, scared before gently hugging Emma.  She seemed to be deteriorating quickly, but Emma wouldn’t let her die.  Once the little Strenkon was asleep she got up quickly in search of her husband. 

              She found him in their bedroom.  He looked sad as he sat there with his head between his hands, looking down at his shoes.  She could tell this was tearing his whole world upside down.  Varius adored his little sister and her death would mean the end of him.  Emma frowned and sat next to her husband slowly placing a hand on his back before rubbing it. 

              “What are we going to do Varius?”  Emma asked, her voice choked in her throat.  She looked at him with big eyes, her question hanging in the air.  He looked at her with red-rimmed eyes. 

              “I know… but I don’t think you will like it…”  Varius sounded desperate as he took his wife’s hands in his.  “I know you cherish the idea of a faithful marriage and the thought of one partner… but please you have to do it for her.” 

              Emma looked at him curiously.  What was Varius saying?  Emma stared at him, waiting for him to explain. 

              “The rumor… about the twins… we have to give it a shot…”  He looked at her, his voice pleading as he squeezed her hands.  Her eyes widened as she got up and shook her head. 

              “No… no… I can’t… it would be wrong…”  She whispered, pacing around the room.  As she did, she thought back to Earth but then her mind reeled back to the present as it brought her images of Aurelianus and Varius.  She thought about them naked, together on a bed waiting for her.  The thought of them together made her even more excited as she bit her lip, trying to ignore the sexy idea of the three of them together. 

              However, no matter how hard she tried, they kept coming back, tormenting her, making her feel guilty as a heat started to form between her legs.  No, she couldn’t do this.  It would be wrong to have a threesome. 
Right
?  Emma fought with her consciousness as Varius stared at his wife.  He had to convince her that this was the right idea. 

              “Please… Emma… do it for Antica…”  His voice was a choked sob as he stood up and walked over to her.  She looked at him, looking into his bright red eyes.  He was right, she had to do it.  She had to, at least, give it a shot for Antica’s sake. 

              She bit her lip, about to tell him she would do it when once again doubt crept into the forefront of her mind.  There was a part of her that didn’t want to do it, that kept telling her that this was immoral and wrong, but there was a bigger, stronger part of her yearning for it to happen. 

              She bit her lip harder as this part of her got the best of her.  She wouldn’t just do this for Antica she would do this for herself.  She wanted this and she would do it for her own sake, to satisfy the need growing inside of her. 

              Eventually, she looked at her husband and nodded.  “I’ll do it… for Antica…”  Varius didn’t have to know that deep down she was doing this to be with Aurelianus.  That there was a burning need to have both of them in bed with her pushing her toward this decision.  She wouldn’t even admit that to herself. 

Chapter 8

              Varius looked surprised when his wife said yes.  He hadn’t expected her to actually agree with his plan.  He looked at her and faltered a bit. 

              “Are you sure?”  She nodded seriously and he smiled before hugging her tightly.  “You won’t regret it.  I promise.”  He grabbed her hand before pulling her out of the room and toward Aurelianus’ bedroom.  Varius was excited with the possibility of saving his sister, but at the same time, he was excited to have a meaningful relationship with both Emma and Aurelianus.  He loved being Emma’s husband but on his planet a genuine relationship consisted of two males and one female, and finally after three years together, they would have something
real
. 

              With this thought in mind, he dragged her into Aurelianus’ bedroom.  Emma was a little apprehensive as the thought of what she was about to do hit her.  She bit her lip but allowed her husband to keep pulling her along. 

              When they finally barged into Aurelianus’ room he looked at them with a curious look.  He sniffed the air a bit and grinned to himself.  He could smell the excitement in the air.  He had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.  He got up and raised an eyebrow at them. 

              “Aurelianus, we would like to…”  Varius looked at him, suddenly unable to finish his sentence as he looked into the man’s beautiful dark blue eye.  He felt his member spring to life just at the sight of him and he gulped down in anticipation as Aurelianus chuckled to himself. 

              “Is that so… I’ve been waiting a long time for this moment.”  He looked at Emma with a glint in his eye.  She looked away quickly, but she could feel a wetness build up between her legs.  What was it about this Strenkon that made her feel so aroused? 

              He walked up to her now.  Slowly, he reached out a hand and caressed the side of her face.  She tensed up at his touch and almost shied away before stopping herself.  She looked up at him with big eyes her heart skipping a beat.  Her every nerve was standing on edge as she felt their skin touch.  Soon, Aurelianus leaned down slowly, until finally their lips met for the first time. 

              In the beginning, Aurelianus kissed unmoving lips but after a moment, Emma started to forfeit herself to the emotions raging inside of her.  She wrapped her arms around his neck and gently reciprocated. 

              Varius, feeling turned on by the scene, started to undress quickly.  He bit his lip as he watched Aurelianus’ hands run down Emma’s back until they finally rested on her ass.  Aurelianus quickly lifted her up by her ass until she had her legs wrapped tightly around his waist.  He smirked to himself as he walked her over to the bed and playfully tossed her onto it. 

              She bounced a bit before looking up at the two Strenkons.  She looked at her husband who was now naked, his exotic cock standing at full attention between his legs.  The wetness between her own legs increased at the sight of him and she had to do everything she could not to creep her hand into her panties and pleasure herself. 

              As she stared at her husband, Aurelianus got on the bed and slowly started to play with the hem of her shirt.  Emma hesitated for a moment, feeling a little unsure.  She was incredibly turned on, but there was still a part of her that was holding her back.

              “Don’t worry… this is normal… and I promise I will never get mad.”  Varius said soothingly, trying to coax away her doubts.  She looked at him and saw sincerity in his eyes.  She looked back at Aurelianus before nodding.  He smiled and quickly took off her shirt. 

              In a matter of minutes all three of them were completely naked.  Emma’s eyes looked over Aurelianus’ body.  Part of it was made of metal, but the other part of it looked to be made of regular flesh and for some reason, the dichotomy between synthetic and natural excited her even more. 

              Her heart started to pound as she saw him lean down, slowly making his way toward her chest.  She moaned out loud when his tongue flicked against her nipple as he took one of her supple breasts into his mouth.  As she arched her back in pleasure, her husband took his position, getting between her legs, his tongue going to work on her sensitive clit.  She moaned loudly, letting the desire take over her. 

              As she quivered in ecstasy she no longer thought about the immorality of her act, instead, she thought about all the pleasure it was giving her.  This was the most amazing thing she had ever experienced in her life.  As she felt the two men working their tongues over her body at the same time she felt herself drip in excitement.  Her husband greedily lapped up her juices no matter how much she produced. 

              The two Strenkons continued to pleasure her for a while, getting her excited and ready for them.  When she was on the verge of climax they stopped.  She whimpered, looking at them.  At the beginning of this act she had been apprehensive, now she was seconds away from begging for more. 

              Before she could beg, however, Varius grabbed hold of her, picking her up and sitting her on his lap.  She looked at Aurelianus who stood before her now. 

              “Are you ready?”  He asked in his gruff voice.  She looked at him with big, excited eyes before nodding her head.  He smirked and looked at Varius who grinned. 

              Suddenly the two Strenkons plunged inside of her at the same time, filling her to the brim, making her feel like she had never felt before. 

              As the two Strenkons started to thrust into her, maintaining a perfect rhythm with each other, she could feel her climax build up deep inside of her.  She wouldn’t be able to hold back much longer and she leaned forward, biting Aurelianus’ neck in her fit of pleasure. 

              The Strenkons moaned loudly as they felt her hole tighten around them, making it harder to move.  Suddenly, she lost all control and with a quivering body she orgasmed all over them.  They grinned at each other, proudly.

Chapter 9

              The three of them collapsed in pleasant exhaustion onto the bed.  Emma found herself sandwiched between them and smiled as she felt Varius’ arms wrap around her as Aurelianus pulled her closer to his body.  Emma blushed as she felt him press against her. 

              Varius smiled at her before gently kissing her nose.  She smiled back.  He chuckled at her.  Soon enough the three lovers fell asleep. 

              In the morning, Emma woke up to find her stomach bigger than usual.  It was no longer flat and smooth. Instead, it had a slight bump to it.  She ran her hands over her skin slowly. 

              As she did Aurelianus woke up and looked at her.  He watched her as she gently caressed her stomach.  “I see it worked…”  He whispered, his large hand laying on her belly. 

              “What worked?”  She asked him, curiously. 

              “Our night together.”  Emma’s confusion grew as she stared at him.  What did he mean?  She tilted her head to the side before she heard her husband chuckle. 

              “You’re pregnant,” Varius said softly, whispering in her ear before kissing her neck gently.  Emma’s eyes nearly popped out of her head. 

              “What do you mean…? Am I pregnant?  This bump… Is it the baby? 
Already?
”  Emma looked at them skeptically.  She couldn’t believe this.  How was this possible?

              “Well I have no idea how things work on your planet but the reproduction process only takes about a week.”  Emma’s eyes grew even larger as she stared at Aurelianus her mouth agape. 
A week?
  Emma’s hand ran over her stomach slowly as she tried to fathom the thought that the life growing inside of her would be born into the world in a
week
. 

              True to their word, Emma found herself in labor within seven days.  Luckily, it wasn’t as painful as she always imagined it would be.  They had given her some leaves to chew on and all her initial pain had gone away. 

              Now she found herself lying in bed holding a set of twins, one male, and one female.  She looked at their strange alien features and smiled.  Even though they looked different than a human baby they still looked beautiful and she loved them as any mother would. 

              Soon after their birth, however, one of the Strenkon elders walked into her bedroom.  The old looking alien with bark-like skin looked at the two children with a huge smile on his face. 

              “These are the children we have been looking for!”  He let out a hollow but happy laugh that filled the whole room.  As he said these words Emma’s thoughts went to Antica who was still suffering with the plague in her downstairs bedroom. 

              “Will they be able to cure the plague?”  Emma asked hopefully as she looked up at the elder. 

              “They will heal this whole planet, my dear,” he whispered.  “Please, can you and your partners come with me?  We need to bring the newborns to the core.”  Emma nodded and watched him leave the room.  Soon after, both Varius and Aurelianus entered the room. 

              Varius smiled at his wife.  “How are you feeling?” 

              “Okay.  How’s Antica?”  Emma asked, looking at him with worried eyes.  He frowned looking away. 

              “She is getting worse… I don’t think she has much time left…”  Emma frowned. 

              “The elder… he was just here… and he said that our children were the prophesized children and that we need to go with him to the core.”  Emma explained quickly, feeling rushed with the threat of Antica’s death on her hands. 

              Varius’ eyes grew large as he looked at his wife.  “Why are we just standing here then?”  He said before getting his wife out of bed.  He grabbed his children and together, they all went to the core. 

              When they got to the core, the two children started to coo loudly, indicating that they wanted to get closer to the spinning ball of energy floating in the middle of the clearing.  Slowly, Emma brought her children toward the core.  Once they were close enough the children reached out, touching it. 

              When they did a silent explosion occurred but nothing moved.  Emma looked around and saw color slowly move its way through the world, bringing life to the dead and dying all around them.  They watched in amazement as the planet seemed to breathe once more as it regained its beautiful colors. 

              In a rush of excitement, they ran back to the city to check on Antica.  When they got there she was sitting in her bed and her eyes were bright yellow again.  Emma smiled big before wrapping her in a tight hug.  They both cried tears of gratitude.

              Once the planet was restored to its previous beauty and luster, everything went back to normal.  The city regained its peaceful demeanor and families slowly started to rebuild as the Strenkons began to reproduce left and right in hopes of reestablishing their numbers. 

              As this occurred Emma and her new family packed up their things.  They took everything with them and made their way back to the cottage.  The Wooded Area, now bright with color and life again would be their home.  Emma preferred the quiet beauty of the Wooded Area to the bustling city any day. 

              As they finally made their way back home, they dropped their bags and made their way to the bedroom.  They gently laid the children down in a small cot and then the three lovers collapsed into bed together.  Emma never thought she would be satisfied in a three-way relationship and yet there she was slowly falling asleep with the arms of two Strenkons wrapped around her.
