“You are in danger. They will come for you again. They are assassins.” His tone was full of conviction, something else that shocked me.

“Who are you talking about?”

“The Tantians. This time, they will not fail.”

“Why were they trying to capture me?”

He studied me intently. “I do not know the answer to your question affirmatively. I will find out as it is vital to your life. You cannot die. That can’t happen, little human.”

“Why is that?” He was terrifying me even more.

His answer was powerful and without question.

“Because you are my mate. You have the power to save my kingdom. Then together we will rule the universe.”

There it was, the elephant in the room.

Now I knew I’d lost my mind. But in truth, I was starting to think of a straitjacket that was fashionable.

CHAPTER16

Sunny

Ding dong. Wake up, silly girl.

I had to be dreaming. There was no other explanation.

Other than you’re cuckoo. Nutso. One screw loose.

I rubbed my eyes and took another deep breath before addressing him. “So let me get this straight. You’re a king? For real?”

“Yes. Well, I will be. I am considered a prince of my people.”

Oh, boy.

Any other woman in my position would take advantage of the information and perhaps the awkward situation, but not this girl. I wasn’t interested in mating with anyone, no matter how gorgeous they were. Or the fact I didn’t have any better offers.

“Impressive. Thank you for the offer but that’s impossible. Our anatomies are not compatible. We aren’t the same species, you and me. In case you haven’t noticed. I mean at least as far as producing children. Spawn. Eggs. Whatever happens in your world.” I pointed up and down his body, trying to figure out why Thor liked him. The pup was still licking the alien’s face with vigor, his tail whapping back and forth.

“You are incorrect, little human. We are to be mated. You will be my queen. Together we will run the entire universe or at least a part of it.”

“I see. And who runs the other part?” A lump had formed in my throat, another wave of fear trickling through me. At least Thor was curious as to why his mommy was swaying back and forth. I wasn’t prone to fainting but at this point, I also wasn’t certain I was grasping onto reality.

“My brothers.”

Another truth. What else did my father know but had decided not to tell me?

“Let me guess. Gods of water and wind? Or the Ice Man?”

He glanced at me, another smirk crossing his face. “Something like that.”

“Uh-huh,” I said, still trying to keep my wits about me. “Well, at least you can speak and I can understand what you’re saying.”

I obviously amused him, something close to a laugh replacing his usual growling sounds. “Yes, every language.”

“O-kay. So your father is the God of Creation, the being responsible for everything I see around me?”

He was thoughtful for a minute then nodded. “Yes.”
