“Wonderful!” Not George Clooney said, clapping his hands. “Then I leave it to you to keep a close eye on this passageway. If we can discover who brings the messages, it will be all we need to set the trap.”

“Trap?” I said, feeling sick to my stomach. “What trap?”

“Oh yes,” Not George Clooney said. “We’ll force him to make a decision that will bring him into the light and make his true allegiance known to all. Then, your mission will be finished once and for all.”

KAL

I was in the middle of a long and pleasant dream. I was the newly minted Lord of Taw and the people bowed before me in reverence and respect—the same way they had for Qale when he ascended to the title.

The moment was spoiled by the approach of Changeling warships. They attacked and destroyed large swathes of the town. The people screamed. Not in fear but anger.

They looked to me, their new lord.

I didn’t hesitate.

I drew my sword and raised it above my head and aimed it at the heavens. I bellowed and tore through the onlookers and ran at the alien creatures laying waste to our homes, our history, our heritage.

And I wasn’t alone.

Powerful warrior Titans—from the humble baker to the muscular lawyer—took up arms with the nearest weapons to hand and added to my bellowing crying. They joined me in the attack and defense of our homes and our livelihoods.

Our way of life.

Many Titans fell but more survived, forcing the Changelings out like cancer from our homeworld and back into the darkness from whence they came.

We raised our bloodied weapons in the air and our voices rang out, singing victory over a conquered enemy.

When I opened my eyes, I brought those feelings of success with me into the waking world, a parting gift of my deepest desires.

At least in dreams I could have a happy ending. The real world was a much more difficult and complicated place.

Still, I hoped. I supposed I would never stop hoping. The Changelings were a temporary fixture, nothing more. A stumbling block on the journey to our destiny of peace and justice.

It was a warm and welcoming emotion, one I knew there was only one person I could thank for. The woman who would be lying next to me in bed right now.

I reached across for her without looking but couldn’t feel her there. I reached a little further and still couldn’t sense her smooth skin.

Had she left in the middle of the night? Gone back to her room to avoid having to face me in the morning?

Did she regret what we did together?

I opened my eyes and prepared myself for the worst. Instead, I got a welcome surprise.

She lay in the bed—barely. She perched right on its edge. She couldn’t have gotten any closer if she tried.

The bed was huge. She could have slept anywhere and decided to perch right on the fringes?

The sheet was wrapped tightly around her ass and her hair spilled over her shoulders. I growled at the back of my throat. She was a piece of cake that was simply too delicious to leave alone.

I had to sneak another piece…

It didn’t surprise me she was a fireball in the sack. She didn’t offer a word of complaint as I broke her down. Initially, I’d been afraid I might hurt her. She was not a Titan and wasn’t built the same way we were. But she turned out to be far tougher than I thought.

She took everything I dished out, and then, to my surprise, she took the initiative and rode me mercilessly. Seeing her on top, bouncing, and working so hard to satisfy herself…

I had never seen such a sexy sight my entire life.
