Imeant to stay away to keep her protected by not knowing who I was, or why I was here, but this proved impossible.

The human in my arms and I wrap my wings around the both of us.

She saw me in my entirety, screamed and fainted. Maybe I shouldn’t have appeared like that? Next time maybe I should first knock on the front door and wait for an answer before entering? Or maybe not. I managed to catch her in my arms before she could fall and hit the ground.

I glance down and smile at my daughter in her bouncer. She’s propped onto the floor in the kitchen, happily drooling and sucking on two fingers she’s shoved into her mouth. She impassively watches the antics of the two adults in her life.

This human was supposed to never see me for the entire time I was going to leave Lyla with her. I meant to drop off my child and go, but I keep coming back. I go on missions, working to take down the entire network of fucked up Hurlian science labs, and I come back here, as sort of a home base?

I didn’t realize how much I’d want to be near my daughter. I gaze down at the female in my arms, press my nose against her throat and inhale her luscious scent. I’m here too for another reason.

I know that Hyrrokin seem like other beings’ worst nightmares and there are many documented sightings of humans literally fainting with terror when meeting a Hyrrokin for the first time, but it’s still surprising to see it’s true. The Gravians, humans and Creekans seem to be particularly susceptible to this oddity. Yet another reason why the Hurlians chose me as their “winged devil.”

Last night I slept on the porch, across the threshold of this domicile so no one could enter without my knowledge. I can do this again tonight and I will, but I’d much rather sleep next to her in bed because then I could be closer to her and to Lyla. I’d only be across the hall from my child, and I’d have this female in my arms as we slept. I’d have this scent in my lungs and the ultimate assurance of her safety.

I slept fitfully on the porch last night and not because it was cold, but because the two of them were too distant. The wrap of my own wings kept me insulated and comfortable at night, but I want to sleep in her bed. How can I convince this female to let me into her bed, without giving her any new knowledge of my situation?

I tried to help her grow accustomed to me before we met. I gave her glimpses of my form and gave her my scent. We’ve exchanged notes. I left her my feather. She knows I’m not Lyla’s mother but instead her father. And she knows I’ve left her the currency and that I’ve provided for her. I am here to care for her. Why is she still so afraid?

Her eyes blink open—a beautiful blue as clear and bright as a cloudless Salo sky. I’ve never seen this color on a being before. Her exotic beauty is intoxicating.

She pushes against my arms, and I allow her to stand up on her own. She brushes her long hair off her smooth forehead, looks up into my face and winces. Her breaths even out and she says with a faint voice, “I’m so sorry I screamed like that and…I fainted?”

I nod in agreement.

“Um, can you speak? Do we need to communicate through writing?”

“No, this is not necessary,” I answer. “I can speak Gravian, but I cannot tell you anything about our situation, for your own safety. And also, I’m not used to speaking to civilians, or humans.”

“Oh.”

“Thank you for caring for my daughter.”

A charming flush spreads across her cheeks. I love this flare of color on her face; it makes her eyes shine all the brighter. I widen my wings and allow her space to take a further step back. She stares in wonder at my feathered wings.

“Can I…?”

I nod and she reaches forward and runs her fingertips along the side of my right wing. I shiver with delight at her touch. Can she see the lengthening of my cock in my trousers? I’ve never been touched this gently in my entire adult life.

I inhale and smell her arousal waft in the air. She’s staring hungrily at my bare chest. My eyes catch hers and her gaze skitters away. This female wants to pleasure mate? Minutes ago, she was so scared of me, she fainted in my arms. But now that she’s gazed upon me, touching my wings, she’s changed her mind? That fast?

I study her from the top of her head down the curve of her generous chest to the swell of her hips and again note her thick thighs. I have never pleasure mated. Now that I am free, I would like to try this for the first time with this human. She can withstand my Hyrrokin lust. But not now.

A cleaning bot enters the kitchen behind us.

“Oh, where did this come from?”

“I brought you another gift,” I explain. “I’ve already programmed it for your house. It will respond to your voice commands.”

Her eyes grow watery. “I…I can’t believe. I’ve always wanted a cleaning bot. I’ve been saving to purchase one but…”

“And now you have one. This will give you more time to spend with Lyla and to rest. Let’s leave the machine to do its work in here.”

She continues to watch for a moment in amazement as the bot cleans the floors, then she leans down and takes my daughter out of her bouncer and holds her in her arms. I place a claw at the small of the human’s back and lead her into the front room. I sit down on her couch, which groans at the additional weight. Then I spread my wings out and pull Evie down alongside me, and we all sit together.

“I think my couch barely holds you,” she laughs. “Do you want to hold Lyla?”
