Kien stepped closer to her and angled his head downward to look into her eyes. The intensity was enough to have Tasha fan herself.

“I would like that very much,” he replied.

“This is something we will discuss later, privately in our home.” Solgre pulled Kien back by his shirt. Kien resisted at first and a brief struggle ensued before he grimaced and ended up by Solgre’s side. Solgre grabbed Phate’s elbow with his other hand. “We must be leaving now.”

Everyone in the boutique watched the trio make their way toward the door. Even Tasha couldn’t find the strength to look away from Phate’s perfectly sculpted ass.

Phate glanced over his shoulder and their gazes connected. Her face reddened at being caught staring at his butt. “Tasha, are you on this dating app?”

Tasha choked. Her on a dating app? If she wanted to do that kind of damage to her pride, she would go to her upcoming high school reunion. “Absolutely not.”

Solgre pushed through the exit, dragging Phate with him.










Chapter Five

Pizza in hand, Kiendropped into the seat next to Phate. The couch creaked under his weight. “We should try this dating app thing. It sounds like the database that the Intergalactic Dating Agency uses. If we’re wondering if the humans would be candidates for the IDA, we should research how things are set up here and how well they will fit.”

Phate took a bite of his pizza. He’d told Kien no fourteen times at last count. Ever since Kien found out about the app, he’d become obsessed about it. “I don’t want to join.”

After leaving Tasha, they’d gone into another store. It was larger and seemed to have everything he’d seen on television in it. There’d been aisles and aisles of stuff...just useless human stuff. Solgre had thought they could pick up equipment for the communicator, so they’d scoured the electronics department for anything remotely advanced enough to match their tech.

Unfortunately, they hadn’t had the time needed to conduct a proper search. The human females gravitated toward them, crowding their space, asking them questions and wouldn’t leave them alone.

Not wanting to bring any more attention to them than necessary, Solgre hastily grabbed anything in reach, tossed it into the cart provided and they’d left. The walk back to their apartment had been fast even with the cart. It had taken some effort to push the cart home with its one wobbly wheel, but they’d done it. Even with two men they’d recognized from the store’s entrance chasing after them.

“We know whyyoudon’t care to join,” Kien said between bites.

“Because Tasha isn’t on it,” Phate confirmed as he picked up the remote from between the seat cushions.

Phate had done his research on what exactly a dating app was and after hacking into the most popular one and seeing the messages between the males and females, had decided it wasn’t for him. After sharing what he’d found with Solgre and Kien, Kien focused solely on the sexual aspect of it.

Some couples got together for dinner and drinks to test their chemistry, while others “hooked up” for purely physical interactions. The latter obviously appealed to Kien. Solgre hadn’t shown interest either way. His interest remained on desperately attempting to repair the portable replicator.

Normally, Solgre would’ve thrived in an unknown environment, but for some reason, being on Earth had changed him. He wasn’t himself.

Phate glanced his way. Solgre sat at the same table where he spent most of his time, eyes downcast, focused on the equipment spread out before him. The cart, with their newly acquired items, was parked beside him.
