“Nothing is happening to me.” Deny, deny, deny. I’m sitting in a pool of my own liquid. With their sensitive noses, any Regha male or female can smell what’s going on. I know this, because they spoke of heats in the former house. I just never experienced one. Why would I? I am human.

“I think you are indeed a breeder, and I think you will breed with me, because you displayed your dynamic for me.”

“Displayed what?”

“You went into heat for me. Your body is telling me you’re an Omega.”

“Jeez Louise, get over yourself already.”

Eyebrows draw down. He doesn’t understand. That’s fine.

“Female, the heat will drive you insane. It will drive me into a rut. You can have me on your own terms, or I will have you on mine. Don’t choose now or the next span or the next”—he leans in and thumps his chest hard—“but know that I’m not leaving this room. Know that I am ready. Know that there will come a point when you will crawl to me and demand I mount you like an Omega in heat.”

Oh man. I pull my knees up and wrap my arms around my legs. My belly hurts worse than when I get my period. The cramps make me nauseous and dizzy. I want to spread my legs and let him lick me there, stick those big fingers inside me, curl them up, and pump until I squirt all over his hand. It’s gonna be a long night.

I stare at the floor. “I want to go home,” I whisper.

“Where ishome?”

“Earth.”

“Which system?”

“Solar.”

“Hm.”

“Never heard of it?’

“No.”

“Neither had the merchant asshole.”

“How did he snatch you?”

“I was at a frat house, when hazing started. I hid in a bush and found myself in the dungeon, where the asshole awaited. The space gate works. The rest is all history.”

“He mentioned a space gate?”

The tone of Eron’s voice makes me look up. “Well, not to me. His servants overheard him chatting with a Telean male, and I overhead them."

Eron gapes, then snaps his mouth closed, and his sexy dick-face is back on. A smirk, then— “Eat something.”

“Do you want to know the truth?”

He nods.

“The food here is inedible to me. Everything is raw."

“Raw food is the most nutritious.”

“I don’t give a shit. I want bread or a French fry or—oh man—a burger.”

“And I will provide all those things, if you take a sip of water and tell me more about what you want to eat, how you need to waste, and what you want to do. Besides fuck me.” He winks. “There’s nothing I won’t do for you, if only you will obey.”

“I suck at obedience.”

“You suck at my cock.”
