Share Us
“Yeah, it’s also where you can stare up at the stars and feel sorry for yourself.”
I laughed, “I’m not feeling sorry for myself.”
“Okay, then what are you thinking about?”
“I was thinking about what Hugh said to me the other night.”
“Was he as good in bed the second time?” She grinned and I let one of my own spread over my lips.
“Oh, and the third and fourth times, too.”
“Hmph—” She frowned, “No wonder you don’t want to share him.”
I chuckled, “I’m sure I’ll get bored once I have what I need from him.”
“Yeah, what is it that you are trying to get from him again—besides a record number of orgasms?”
I snickered, “You are just jealous.”
“Hell, yes I’m jealous!” She slapped a hand on her thigh. “I can’t remember the last time I was with a man that I wanted more than once, especially a human male.”
I shrugged, “Did you need something?”
“I wanted to remind you of dinner.” She replied.
“Ah, yes, the family dinner.” I pursed my lips. I wasn’t sure why Rex and Garrett were pushing for us to have one, but they were. I glanced at my watch, forty-five minutes until I needed to be down there. Why did it feel like I had a noose around my neck, and it was tightening the closer it got to the time?
“Sounds like everyone is going to be here.” She commented.
“That’s nice.”
She laughed, “No, it’s not. They are up to something and you know it.”
“Yes, I do. I just haven’t figure out what it is yet. Have you?”
She shook her head and changed the subject, “Did you ever find out what your boytoy really wants from us?”
“Not completely. He said again that he wanted to help protect us, which I have doubts about. I’m not sure how they could protect us, not from the wars we fight.”
“Do you think maybe he means by the war that the humans want to run against us?”
“Maybe, but he mentioned again that they were interested in what abilities our people have. He said that they could be useful.”
“Useful?” She chuckled darkly, “As in they want touseus.”
“Yeah, I have a feeling that might be the real reason that they want to know more about us. I picked up on a few things from Hugh, and the images that I saw were all of conversations about if they had certain abilities, they might be able to achieve things.”
“What are they trying to achieve?”
“That I don’t know.” She turned to me, “Believe it or not, Hugh is very good at hiding his thoughts from me.”
“You’re kidding?”
“No, it’s actually quite impressive. It’s like he clears his mind when he’s around me.”
“Maybe you blow his mind and the only thing he can think about is your body.” She laughed and I joined her.
“Oh, those thoughts are loud and clear.” I peered at my sister, “And he thinks you are rather beautiful, too, although you scare the shit out of him for some reason.”
