"Project Exorcism" consisted of the removal of any and all traces of supernatural beings on the planet Earth. While the Commission firmly believed themselves successful in meeting this objective, they were wrong. Not only did they fail to remove all traces of that which is not human, they sent it out among the stars to live on other planets, to grow from new resources, gain new powers and create new threats.

When Commission Captain Sevan Vasil finds his damaged vessel in uncharted and unfriendly territories, he’s left no choice but to ask for assistance. His ship and his crew can’t continue on without it. He expected some resistance. Maybe even a few harsh words. He never expected the sassy raven-haired beauty from his dreams to answer his call.

Lorelei Janelle’s gut tells her not to the let the Commission vessel dock, but her heart over-rules. The all too cocky and all too sexy Captain is more than she bargained for. Getting his crew off her planet by sunset will be hard enough as it is. Getting him out of her heart may be impossible.

Rating: Contains graphic violence, explicit sex, and strong language.

This is a work of fiction. All characters, events, and places are of the author’s imagination and not to be confused with fact. Any resemblance to living persons or events is merely coincidence.


Prologue

Sevan moved slightly, getting a better angle on the beauty below him. Lorelei had haunted his dreams now for months and although he’d come to understand that he’d wake to find his sleep quarters empty and the raven haired goddess below him only a memory, he still caressed her tenderly. For the time being, she was his and he’d use that to his full advantage. He circled her belly button with his tongue as he looked up the length of her perfect body. Letting his eyes linger over her ample breasts and dark nipples, he could find no imperfection unless owning his heart was considered one.

The Fates themselves must have taken pity on him. Loving someone wasn’t an option for him or others like him--the ones who carried the tiniest bits of supernatural DNA. Thankfully, Sevan’s blood carried so little that the Commission’s screening didn’t catch it. Only he and his family knew. Humans from Earth had thought they had wiped out all traces of the monsters of night long ago during Project Exorcism. While humans did succeed in escorting the majority of the supernaturals off the planet in 2055 a small percentage remained, hiding among the humans or simply hiding. Now, a little over a hundred and fifty years later, supernaturals still existed, though finding a full-blood was almost impossible.

Hiding under the Commission’s nose was the best place to be. The only problem was, should Sevan ever be lucky enough to find his mate, that one special person made just for him, he would have to disappear. If the Commission ever learned of his ancestry they would court-martial him if he was lucky. Death would be the alternative. Not just for Sevan but for his mate as well.

Now, coming upon the phase in his life where he wanted a family more than life itself, he found himself daydreaming about his mate, what she would look like, who she might be. It was then that the dreams of Lorelei began. No part of Sevan believed she was truly the one for him. No. She was too perfect. Too beautiful. Too glorious to be real. He now looked forward to sleeping in hopes of seeing her. So far, in the six months since the dreams began they’d been together each and every night.

Licking his way down her flat stomach, Sevan stopped when he reached the thin well maintained strip of black hair covering her mound. He parted Lorelei’s slit, revealing her pink bud and smiled wickedly. “Baby, you’re gorgeous. The sight of you all spread out before me makes my dick so hard that I can’t stand it.”

“Please, Sevan,” she whispered.

He couldn’t help but smile at Lorelei’s soft pleas for more. This woman his mind had created was so far beyond faultless that it was immeasurable. The idea of waking terrified him. Inching lower, Sevan dropped his head down and captured her clit, flicking his tongue back and forth over it.

She inched up on the bed, doing her best to try to escape him. Knowing that she loved it when he did it, Sevan continued, hooking his arms around her thighs and pulling her to him. He licked, sucked and caressed her, bringing about tiny gasps and sweet moans from her lips.

“Please.”

Sevan sucked gently, his heart beating wildly. He knew she wanted him in her but he wanted her to come first. Her happiness meant everything to him. Of course, his need to please her was part selfish as well. When she came he was able to lick it, taste it, enjoy it coating his tongue as he shared in her joy, forever committing it to memory. Sliding a hand around, he inserted a finger into her tight channel as he continued to run his tongue over her clit.

Lorelei cried out and laced her fingers in his hair. The knowledge that she was close to hitting her peak spurred him on. He increased his pace and added a second finger. The second her legs drew together, effectively clamping his head, he knew she’d reached culmination. Her pussy convulsed around his fingers and cream trickled freely from her. Sevan’s dick jerked painfully, needing to find solace in her and soon.

Crawling up the bed quickly, Sevan took hold of his rigid cock and aligned it with her heated core. He entered, instantly burying himself to the hilt. Lorelei bucked beneath him, grabbing hold of his ass and pulling him to her. He increased his thrusts. Her body took hold of his, fisting his shaft as he worked in and out of her. It was heavenly. Every dream always was. It was as though Lorelei were made especially for him. His subconscious had created a woman so perfect that no woman in his waking hours could compare to her. Sadly enough, he doubted that even his true mate would measure up next to Lorelei and the place she’d taken in his heart.

“Do you like that, baby?” he asked, already knowing she did.

Nodding her head, Lorelei bit her lower lip and stared up at him with eyes so blue they didn’t look natural. The walls of her pussy grabbed him tight, holding his cock in her as she came again. This time Sevan joined her, pushing down and locking to her tight. Unable to stop himself, Sevan gave in, emptying his seed deep within her, filling her to the point she couldn’t possibly hold it all.

Lorelei’s grip on him loosened slowly, making way for tiny caresses. She ran her hands through his hair and hugged him tight, giving him the reassurance he needed that she was still there. “Thank you.”

He let out a soft laugh. Normally, it was him thanking her. It had become a running joke between them. The first time he’d experienced the joy of being in her he’d repeatedly thanked her while he fucked her. “Mmm, you are most welcome.”

“Sevan?”

He kissed her lips as he stared down at Lorelei, not wanting to pull out. The second her lips began to tremble Sevan knew she was on the verge of tears. “Baby, what’s wrong? Did I hurt you?”

“No,” she said, her voice weak. “I don’t want to want to wake up and find you’re not there with me.”

For some reason his mind had been having the woman he’d invented react with the same emotions as him. The same fears of waking and the other not being there. No part of Sevan wanted to wake to find himself alone in his quarters, his arms empty and his heart heavy. The idea of remaining in a dream-like state for all eternity had occurred to him more than once. Seeing Lorelei teetering on the edge of tears only added to that. “I’ll come back.”

“How do you know you will?”

“Because I’ve come every night for almost six months, Lorelei.”

She swallowed hard. “What if the dreams just stop, Sevan? What if this is our last time together?”

Hearing her voice his ultimate fear left him needing to kiss her. Dropping down, he did just that, tasting her mouth as if it were the last time he’d ever be permitted to sample it. The fear of waking at any moment struck him hard and he drew back a bit. “Lorelei, I love you. Know that in case this is the last time.”

It didn’t matter that she was a figment of his imagination. He’d fallen in love with her upon first sight and it had only increased. In the waking hours he tried to find a real love, someone to fill the hole in his heart but he couldn’t even stomach the idea of touching another woman. She was all he wanted.

The stunned expression on her face was priceless. He kissed the tip of her nose and chuckled. “That wasn’t the response I was expecting.”

She touched the side of his face and locked gazes with him. “And I wasn’t expecting to fall in love with you either.”

Suddenly, it felt as though he’d been stabbed through the heart. The news of her loving him should have been joyous. Instead, it only made matters harder for him. He was in love with a dream. It was sick and he knew it but he couldn’t stop. Too many nights they’d spent together, talking about their pasts, their people, their futures and too many times they’d fallen into one another’s arms, making love until it was time to wake.

“Did I say something wrong?” she asked, running her hand over his bare chest.

Taking hold of it with his own, Sevan brought her hand to his lips and kissed it gently. “I want to claim you, Lorelei. Make you mine for all eternity.”
