A Touch of Lilly Read Free

a wink and an air
kiss at Lilly from one of the heads. “This one’s on me,”
he chirped. It seemed everyone except the human was feeling the
effects of her power surge.
    The
man arched a brow at the two headed Xerick behind the bar and smiled
as the male reluctantly turned back to another customer. “Looks
like you could have your choice of clients at this point.”
    Lilly
couldn’t believe what was happening, or more accurately, what wasn’t happening with the human. She narrowed her eyes
and studied the man, wondering if he had some other motive for being
here. His dark complexion and sexy-as-hell day-old scruff weren’t
memorable. But the faint trace of a scar running from his brow to his
upper lip certainly were. Lilly didn’t recognize him as any of
the bounty hunters on the circuit. In the last three months she’d
become very aware of her competition.
    Besides,
it had taken three weeks of intense investigation on Reigis Alpha and
another two days scoping out joints here on Garalon Five before she’d
figured out her next move. There was no way in hell this guy could be
another bounty hunter who’d managed to follow the same path
looking for the same outlaw—all while remaining hidden. His
appearance here had to be coincidental. Still, there was the issue of
his ability to ignore her sexual aura. That part completely threw
Lilly off her game.
    “ Are
you seriously telling me that at this moment you’re not
interested in having sex with me?” She lowered her voice. “Or
are you worried you just can’t compete with the Ickbata’s
sexual prowess?”
    He
laughed, a warm sound that shot heat through her blood. “If
you’re referring to their dicks, I’ve heard rumors they
have no idea what to do with them.” He drained his ale in one
long gulp, swiping his hand across his mouth as he turned. His eyes
locked on hers, the humor of a moment ago replaced by a hard-edged
spark of lust. “I, on the other hand, have never had any
complaints about how I use mine.”
    She
swallowed hard, her tongue unable to form words. She wasn’t
sure why she’d doubted her effect on the human, but as her body
thrummed with the energy coursing through her, she wanted everything
his dangerous look promised. “I—”
    He
hauled her from the stool and unceremoniously pulled her against his
chest. The hard lines of his jaw clenched with some emotion she
couldn’t identify. “Fine. You want to play this through?
Then let’s.” He brought his mouth down on hers, hard and
demanding.
    She
grabbed his shirt for support, her energy flooding into his system.
Guilt and sadness clashed within her over the sudden release. It’s
not how she wanted to attract a man, but at times like this—when
her own emotions and desires took over—Lilly had no way to stop
the flux.
    His
tongue swept her lips and she opened for him, a low growl of desire
vibrating in his chest, fueling her own need. She hadn’t been
with a man since the incident on Earth over six months ago. What harm
would it do if her feminine charms had coaxed him into a quick little
sexual romp that could satisfy both their elevated libidos? And in
her current role, this guy might just feed both her empty wallet and
her desperate need for human contact.
    Her
fingers tangled in the caramel curls of silky hair at the nape of his
neck, pulling him tighter. He changed the angle, the soft heat of his
tongue brushing against hers. His hand dragged up her thigh, over her
belly and stopped just below her breast. He broke the kiss, his heavy
breath hot on her skin.
    He
scanned the tavern as if surprised he’d let his libido take him
so far. “How about we take this party somewhere private?”
    Yes. Even with their limited contact, her body was demanding more. One
drawback of bonding someone with her energy was the backlash it had
on her own need. Lust surging, Lilly wouldn’t be able to ease
her sexual hunger until her orgasm broke the link she’d created
to the man. Desperation
