I managed to get through the wedding taping as I was introduced to the world of retakes and director prompts. My face hurt from smiling, but neither Logan nor I complained about the number of times we had to redo the kiss and my lipstick. As we walk back home I lift my hand, and my simple wedding band flashes with the reflection of sunlight. Logan says, “Tomorrow we’ll tape the segment about your engagement ring. I’m looking forward to finding the perfect one for you.”

“Are we going to shop for it together?”

He stops walking and takes me by the arms. “No. I’m going to be the hopeless romantic and find you the perfect expression of my love.” He throws his hands up in the air. “The perfect expression of my love! It’s good isn’t it? I’m going to use that line.”

I chuckle as I nod, and we begin walking again. “You really do jump in with both feet when you’re excited about something.”

“You know it, honey.” The aroma of roasting hot dogs carries to us as we go by a food truck, and when we get to the newsstand Logan taps on a magazine. “Soon your face will cover one of these.”

I frown as I imagine my boring appearance taking the place of elegance. “I don’t know about that.”

“Well I do.” Logan takes my face in his hands and gazes down at me with so much love I can’t help but smile back at him. “Human men are going to wish they’d landed you, while my kind will wish they’d been the one you chose.” He leans down and kisses me, and when he pulls back he lets out a sigh. “I like being Logan Grady.” Because we gave the aliens first names to be followed by their test subject id number, it was decided the Eroscian males would take on their wives’ surnames. “Now let’s get home, Eliza. It’s time for an off-camera scene.”

I lick my lips as my insides tremble, and I take Logan’s hand and our fingers entwine. When we get to the door of our building, he scoops me up in his arms. “We’ll have to reenact this for the camera at some point, but for right now, this is about only us.”

I lean against his large chest and marvel at how he makes me feel small. The doorwoman smiles as we walk by. “Just married, Miss Eliza?” She rushes over to push the elevator button for us.

Logan says, “She sure is.”

“I am,” I say in a dreamy voice. “And I never knew I could be so happy.”

She says, “Well there’s an endorsement for the Intergalactic Dating Agency if I ever heard one. One of these days I might need to get myself an alien too.”

The elevator doors swoosh as they begin to shut and I say, “You do.” When we’re enclosed I tug Logan’s head toward mine and whisper. “Because everyone should be this happy.”

We continue to kiss after the door opens again, and Logan sets me down gently on my feet once we’re back in the apartment. “Finally,” he says. “I’ve got you to myself.” He steps back and yanks on his tie.

The fabric of my suit jacket is soft under my fingers as I undo the buttons, and I remove it to reveal the silky camisole I put on for Logan. It dips down to reveal the luscious breasts I know are one of my best features, and the desire coursing through my veins has hardened my nipples. His heated gaze tells me I achieved the effect I wanted.

“Eliza.” Logan’s voice is throaty as his pants fall to the floor with a whoosh. I wiggle out of my skirt and step toward him.

He’s in just his briefs, and his skin is hot under my palms as I place my hands on his thick arms. The muscle is as solid as steel and I say, “My god, sometimes it’s hard to believe you are real.”

Logan slides his hands under my camisole and up my sides, causing me to take a shaky breath in anticipation of where he’s headed. He teases me by tracing the underside my breast with his finger. “You are spectacular, Eliza.” He cups me lightly and rubs a thumb over my nipple, sending tremors of pleasure through me. “I’m going to memorize every inch of you, my beautiful wife.”

I sigh as I move my hands to his chest and explore the rock hard surface with my fingers. Logan reaches down to grab the back of my thighs and hoists me up to his waist, and I wrap my legs around him as he walks us to the bedroom. He lowers me to the bed where I get on my knees to face him. My camisole is slippery in my shaky hands as I grab the hem and lift it over my head. I’m usually shy about my body, but the way Logan’s watching me lets me know I have no reason to be.

“So gorgeous,” says Logan as he removes his underwear. His thick erection is revealed, and I notice it’s in proportion to his body. He comes toward me and crawls on the bed as I move back to lie down. I gaze into the warmth of his brown eyes when he hovers over me. “Now I get to show you how much I love you.” He kisses me, and I slide my hands down his firm back as muscles flex under my fingers.

Once I’m drunk from his taste, Logan moves down my neck and chest to pay attention to my breasts. He suckles me until I begin to moan, and then he continues his journey. I tremble beneath the feather-like touch of his lips when he flutters them along my stomach. His wavy locks stroke along my skin as he moves between my legs, and I inhale sharply when he laps at my sensitive folds. His hands are firm on my inner thighs as he spreads me for better access, and it’s not long before I’m mewling my approval.

My insides burn with need as the pleasure builds. Logan lifts up to gaze at me as he replaces his mouth with his hand. As my orgasm approaches, I close my eyes. “No, Eliza. Look at me.” I open my eyes again, and he moves up and over me as he guides himself to my silken channel. “I want to feel you come around me, honey. Hold on for me.”

Lifting my hips, I let him slide in deep. His cock fills me in a way that feels as if he’s giving me something I never realized I missed. “Oh, Logan. You feel so amazing.”

“Yes.” He begins to move slowly but quickens the pace when he finds his stride. I meet him stroke for stroke as I grip his firm bottom in my hands and focus on the surge of ecstasy rising in me. Our small cries are in unison as we experience the pleasure of our physical connection. When Logan’s motions reach a frantic pace he says, “Let it go,” and I let the floodgates open to the sensations threatening to shatter my world.

My orgasm crashes around me as we both cry out, and Logan follows me as I ride the wave of my climax. Just when I think I’m going to fall a sensation deep within my core spikes. Did he just....? The question leaves my mind as another orgasm quakes in me, more powerful than the first. I may even scream, but I’m too wrapped up in my pleasure to know.

When I finally return to Earth, I wrap my legs around Logan tightly as if I can keep my alien mate with me forever. He must sense my need, because he squeezes his arms around me and whispers, “I love you, Eliza.” His skin is damp against mine as he sighs as if he’s realized a truth. “With all my heart.”

His breath tickles my neck as he nuzzles against me. The warmth of his love surrounding my soul makes me believe he’s the man I was supposed to find. The perfect match I was too afraid to accept until now. I let all my reservations go and allow myself to love Logan with all my heart. “I love you too.”
