Mira didn't understand why, but she urgently craved the taste of his seed every day for over a week. It had been several days since they arrived on the island, and every day he had filled her with his cum, but now all she seemed to want was to taste it.

She closed her eyes and let the warmth of his flesh gently graze over her face. Her mouth felt empty and cold as she parted her lips and reached for his cock. "Not yet," Ezra said, holding her back from taking him in. "First," he smiled down on her. "Lick." He knew that some women began to crave semen after they had drank it, but he had never experienced the urgency of one of those women before, and he couldn't help but like it.

It was like she needed his dick inside her mouth. Like she couldn't go one more second without it—but he wanted to tease her. It was so fun teasing her.

She stuck out her tongue and flicked it over the tip, massaging it. He reached down and held her breast, pinching her nipples gently.

She slid her tongue over the shaft, wetting each inch with her spit carefully, like a painting. The spit dribbled onto her chin as she drooled from the taste of him.

"You want to suck it?" Ezra asked her.

"Yes—." The urgency in her voice made Ezra break.

He grabbed the back of her head and pushed her mouth over himself. The feeling of him in her mouth, on her tongue, against the back of her throat sent shivers down Mira's spine.

Her head bobbed back and forth, up and down, spit slipping over her cheeks and running down her neck. When Ezra felt himself cumming, he pulled her away, and she kneeled before her with her eyes closed and her tongue out ready to drink from him. The jizz splattered over her lips first, then onto her tongue and down her throat. It was so good, Mira couldn't help but moan from the taste. She swallowed the first mouthful then pressed her lips against the tip of his cock, licking the hole over and over, making sure she got every last drop of him. Her stomach was full of his seed, and so was her pelvis from earlier that day. Ezra gently eased her onto her feet and kissed her, while wiping the remains of the creamy white liquid off with a towel.

"Why does your come taste so good? Is it the island?" Mira asked.

Ezra hesitated. "No, it isn't the island."

"Then what is it?"

Ezra brushed back some of her hair and looked her in the eyes. He didn't want to face the reality, but if it was true, then it was her right to know. "Women—Jayku and human—tend to crave our semen once they taste it for the first time. But sometimes, women become addicted to it for a time... when they're pregnant."

Mira froze in place. She couldn't be showing signs—not yet. They had been on the island for a thirteen days. It was too early, right?

"It's usually the first sign of pregnancy, actually."

"So... you think I'm pregnant?"

"You could be."

Ezra didn't sound as pleased as Mira thought he would. "Why aren't you happy?"

Ezra shook his head. "I am... I just, I don't want you to leave."

Mira hadn't even considered how he would feel after they had the baby. She would be abandoning him and their child, flying back home and never speaking again. At least, that was the current plan.

"But a deal is a deal," he forced himself to smile. "Though, we still need to confirm it."

Mira sat on the edge of the bed, hunger making her stomach growl.

"Let me go get some food," he said, and he pulled on his pants and started for the mouth of the cave.

Mira closed her eyes and took a deep breath, uncertain of how to feel. The goal since she stepped on this planet had been to get pregnant, so why was she so disappointed?

Ezra returned a moment later with a large wooden bowl of fruit. He set it down beside her on the bed and avoided her gaze, staring at the cave wall across the way.

"Ezra?" She said, reaching out to his shoulder. When she touched him, he finally looked at her. "Are you mad at me for wanting to go home?"

His expression twisted into a mix of anger and regret. "No, of course not sweetheart." He turned his body towards her so that he could hold her face in his hands. "I could never be mad at you for missing the people you care about."

She licked her lips, more conflicted in that moment than any other since she arrived on the alien planet.

"I just wish there was a way you could stay without giving up your family."

She closed her eyes, tears forming. It was ridiculous. To be with the man she loved, she had to give up her family on earth. And to be with her family on earth, she had to give up the man she loved and their baby.

She pressed a hand to her stomach, wanting to be pregnant and not at the same time.

"Mira," he said, setting the bowl of fruit on the floor and pulling her into his lap, cradling her into his chest. "Don't cry."

"This is so hard," she said, a tear escaping her eye before she wiped it away quickly. "I didn't expect this to happen... I never imagined I'd want to stay with you."

Hope ebbed at the edges of Ezra's mind. She wanted to stay. That was good. But not if it caused her so much pain. "We will figure it out, sweetheart. But first we need to confirm if you're actually with child. No sense in worrying about any of this until we know for certain, right?"

She swallowed hard, the taste of him still lingering on her tongue. "Yeah," she said, forcing herself to stop feeling so sad and get to her feet. She reached for a piece of fruit and took a juicy bite. "Maybe your jizz just tastes so good because of the fruit." She forced a small smile, and Ezra smiles back at her, standing to kiss her forehead as she ate.

"Maybe," he agreed, but deep down he knew the truth. He could see it, how the tears that formed made her eyes glow a shade brighter. That was a sign unique to human women. And it only happened once they became pregnant with a Jayku's baby.
