“Where are your parents?”

“Sailing the seas on their yacht. They will be back in a few years.” He chuckled. “Boy, will they be surprised.”

“Surprised?”

“They thought I was going to die alone here.”

She frowned. “Why?”

“Because no alpha would be with me, knowing that I didn’t want them.”

“What about a female alpha?”

He chuckled. “Me and Ahheel don’t get along. She likes females exclusively.”

“Ah. Yeah, she does.” Amby blushed.

“Plus, she isn’t soft or curvy or sweet.”

She pressed her head to his shoulder. “Um. Okay.”

He kissed her temple and tilted her head back. “So, pretty one, want to cuddle?”

She bit her lip, and he smiled and kissed her, tangling his tongue with hers. Amby leaned into him, and he carefully aroused her with his fingers and mouth until he was licking again, and she screamed when everything shattered.

He purred softly and nuzzled his way up her body as she gasped and shivered against him.

“Don’t you need to...” She caressed his chest and trailed her fingers down his belly.

“No. I got off twice before you arrived. I didn’t want to show you around with a raging boner just because you smelled good, but I did anyway.”

Amby yawned and cleared her throat. “Excuse me.”

“Tired already, little pretty?”

“Sorry. It’s been a fairly active few days. Yesterday, I climbed the falls, and I think I am still tired from that.”

“You climbed the falls? Ah, you did say Dorian was one of yours.”

“Yes. He is.”

“Get some rest. I am going to invite some guests.”

She sighed, and Exoval kissed her forehead. Cuddled against him, she imagined herself covered with butterfly wings.

Chapter Nine

She felt well-rested, and the nervous unease she had been feeling was gone. Amby felt calm, and she had a strange effervescence in her bloodstream.

The sheet was across her, and she sat up, holding it to her chest. Her hair was a wild tumble around her, and she smiled at the thought that Exoval had busy fingers.

Dorian’s voice came to her through the open door. “Amby, are you awake?”

She swallowed. “Yeah.”

Ohno and Exoval came in, and Dorian followed.

Ohno looked at her. “Wow. Exoval does good work.”
