Finally, the line of females cycled through.

So if Beth was in the restroom, she must have been in there much longer than the others.

I approached one of the females — a tall Mooruk with yellow flames that lined her arms, back, and head.

“Excuse me. I’m looking for someone. A female human. She goes by the name of Beth. Have any of the stalls been occupied for a long time?”

I realized what I sounded like.

An overbearing, over-concerned male who kept his female on a tight leash.

The female looked me over, smiled, and said:

“I don’t think so. Would you like me to check?”

“Please,” he said. “Thank you.”

She entered the bathroom.

I took a deep breath, calming down my heart.

Being apart from Beth was bad enough but the idea might have just up and disappeared like that, without even a warning…

It was too painful to bear.

I paced back and forth, wondering if the Mooruk had forgotten I was still waiting outside.

Each time the door swung open, I snapped my neck towards it, but it was only another female.

Finally, she emerged and I approached her.

She shook her head before I could ask my question. “All the stalls are empty. Wherever she is, she’s not in there.”

Brows drawing down into a frown, I nodded. “Okay. Thank you.”

I drifted back into the dining room, my head bowed low.

I needed to head back to our suite and wait for her to return.

Eventually, she would.

I hoped.

Has she just disappeared off the face of the planet?

That seemed unlikely.

Was she somehow unhappy with me?

Had I failed to satisfy her somehow?

I thought back over our time together, how exciting and thrilling the sex had been, but could see no reason for her to suddenly take off like that.

Perhaps she had discovered another male…

My body tensed and I quivered with rage at the very suggestion she would go with another male.

No, she wouldn’t do that.
