I break off the kiss and rest my head against her forehead. “Go into your room, right now,” I order.

She gazes up at me with wide eyes.

I rub my aching cock against her stomach for emphasis. “Unless you want to end up in my bed right now, you need to enter your room immediately and lock the door behind you.”

She lets out a squeak and rushes into her room and I hear the soft click of the lock.

I walk back to my own room, strip off my clothes, turn on the cleansing unit and step inside. Then I stroke my hard, leaking shaft, trying to find relief. Finally, I shout out my release with her name on my lips.

Then I pass out in my bed, wishing she was beside me.

Erid was right.

I’ve got it bad.

Chapter 10

Mica

Ikissed Thorn last night.

And it was the best kiss of my life. Epic. We could’ve had sweaty sex against the wall, right there, if I’d let it go further.

But Thorn let me know I was pushing him to the edge, so I ran off into my bedroom. I might’ve kissed him, but that doesn’t mean I’m ready for the whole thing yet.

I’ve kissed and made out with quite a few guys in the past. None of them kissed like Thorn. My vibrator back home was my best friend and managed to keep me satisfied and able to hold out for the right male. I just haven’t gone all the way with anyone.

I can’t believe I did that. I attacked him. And what was sweet is that I suspect it was Thorn’s first kiss.

How is that even possible?

Yesterday was a big day for me. I was so relieved to have found a reliable contact and passed off that chip to Sheriff Loadstone. I’m even able to, right now, receive updates from him on my tablet concerning the steps he’s taking in the process of taking down the Brimstones’ plan to assassinate their Queen.

And then I was given a tour of the ranch. There was so much that happened in one day and by the evening it was just me andThorn, sipping ale on his back porch next to a fire pit and…it was so freaking romantic.

I’d been staring at his lips all evening, wondering what they felt like and how he tasted. I had to know.

The next morning I’m still thinking of that kiss and the sexy Hyrrokin who let me know he’d love to keep me here as his mate, and I head downstairs. This must have been another reason why I kissed him. I’d originally thought he wanted only a hook up. A temporary girlfriend because he was attracted to me but I was human and therefore he couldn’t mate with me and I’d be a nice memory but I’d have to leave. Instead, I discover he’s scented me and thinks I’m possibly his future mate?

I’ve always wanted a man who could commit and who I wouldn’t have to worry would cheat on me (because no way in hell would I cheat on him) and, well, the Hyrrokin mate for life.

The suns are barely rising on my third day at the ranch and I already feel like this is my home. I’m up earlier now, but Thorn is already gone at work, the same as yesterday and I’m certain the same as every day.

It might not have been the smart thing to do last night, shoving my tongue into his mouth, but I couldn’t help myself. I had to have a taste of those lips. And a moment to rub my tongue against those white fangs.

It would’ve been so easy to slip out of my own bed late last night and pad down the hallway and slip into bed beside the huge, sexy Thorn Flagstone. There’s a persistent heated throbbing between my thighs that only he can resolve.

But I said I’m not ready and I meant it. So when he ordered me back to my room I scurried away and locked the door.

I’ve got to take time to wrap my brain around the possibility that the place I’ve been staying at, and coveting, might really be a place I could stay permanently. It helps that I’m getting to know everyone here, but this really is a big decision. I’d alwaysassumed I’d visit other planets and space stations to work, but in the end I envisioned myself returning to New Earth to settle down. What if I stayed on Tarvos forever? Having children that were half Hyrrokin and half human?

It's a lot to process.

Yesterday I spent more time with the animals and all the ranch hands. I’m really starting to get to know all their names and even the names of the riding beasts and the pyrotaurs. I think I liked working in a business environment with a team of people because I’d done the same growing up. We’d all lived together and worked toward the same goal. But I haven’t had the chance to stay at the same firm for longer than a year or two. But I can see that here at the ranch I’d be able to recreate that same atmosphere I loved growing up—a group of people to grow close to and get to know well.

The walk down the sunny staircase this morning down to the huge open living space, kitchen and dining area never gets old. Two additional cleaning bots are busy working because I got them programmed yesterday afternoon, so there are three of them moving around this morning, which is nice.

I get to the kitchen and continue to muse about my relationship with Thorn Flagstone. My mind isn’t made up yet and I don’t want to tell him anything unless I’m certain of how I feel. Because teasing him with feelings I’ll take back later isn’t fair to him, or to me.
