The fact we had now been brought together only validated my belief we shared a destiny.

Still, I hated the stink of the alien male on her and the knowledge that he had Claimed her before I could.

It was like a mark that would never leave her, the same mark I had dreamed about placing on her so that every alien male would knowshe belonged to me.

But things had changed.

She was no longer at the facility, I reminded myself.

She was now here, with me —alonewith me.

There was now nothing that could get in the way of us mating.

And with my Steyatt in full throttle mode, I sensed that if I did not claim her soon, I would have to remove myself from her presence.

I wasn’t sure what excuse I would give, only that I would have to give one.

I would remove that mark of another from her and replace it with my own.

It was the only way to remove the growling sense of disgruntlement I felt when I was around her.

She turned toward me again and I hastily pulled my eyes from her ass.

I smiled and hoped she did not sense my intense longing just beneath the surface.

“Can I visit each of the planets we have branches?” she asked.

“Yes. Of course. Anytime you wish.”

Lizzy nodded. “And how about this mansion? Are there any other facilities to see?”

I led her out of the mansion and towards the back of the property. “This is the G'kood stables. We have many excellent breeds and they’re yours to ride whenever you wish.”

“Other any sights worth seeing on this planet?”

I smiled at her. “Oh yes. Many. Perhaps tomorrow morning when the sun rises on a new day, I could take you and show you them.”

And claim you.

“Yes,” she said. “I’d like that.”

She smiled and her eyes caught on mine and lingered longer than they had previously.

She seemed to notice she was staring at me and immediately tore her eyes away.

“Anyway,” she said. “What happens now?”

I wish to carry you to my room and Claim you, Earthling.

I psychologically slapped myself and cleared my throat once more — and I was certain she must suspect I had some kind of throat problem by now!

“It’s time for dinner,” I said. “Are you hungry?”

“Oh yes,” Lizzy nodded enthusiastically. “Starving!”

I tried not to think about how she had gotten so hungry — having sullied herself with another male — and instead motioned towards the dining room.

“Our staff is very well trained in human cuisine,” I said. “You can have anything you wish. Your father ensured to hire only the best chefs.”
