“Am I not traveling with these elite red guards? Nim will be with me.The alphaof the Silver Tribe is traveling with me,” Sim glared at Xy.

Roqs sighed. “This might take a while.”

“Why?” I whispered. “What’s going on?”

“Nothing important,” Coone sighed also. “Nim.”

Nim nodded at us. His gaze lingered at me for a time before he walked away. He was carrying some food packages as well. Sim’s voice droned on at our back when we boarded the ship.

“Wow,” I whispered. The door swished closed behind me. I’m on an actual space ship. Small lights on the floor guided our way. Sleek modern tables and chairs lined up against the one-way windows. I could see the first sun peeking from the horizon in front of me. To my right, there was a hallway that probably leads to the cockpit.

Coone took my arm and guided me to a section where, instead of chairs, it was plush sofa. When I sat on it, I thought it would gobble me up. Coone sat beside me. The sofa was half circular facing the window. The other side reflected the same. I could find myself sleeping in no time just sitting on this sofa. Good thing there were big fluffy back pillows, otherwise, I could just lie down completely on this. Coone looked very comfortable as well. He circled an arm around my waist and pushed me towards his side. He yawned and I could still see the dark circles under his eyes.

Roqs came to us and deposited the food package in one of the open shelves at the end of the sofa. He grimaced then glared at the furniture. He looked mortally offended.

Coone snorted beside me. “Is the sofa too soft for your brute strength, alpha?” When he said alpha, I could swear Roqs’ fur bristled.

Roqs sat gingerly on my other side. I couldn’t help but teased him. “You mean thisshipis too small for this ego?”

Coone laughed while Roqs scowled at me. “Remind me next time not to bring your water.”

“Oh, you brought me some?” I sat upright, heart in my eyes.

He sighed and pulled something from his holster. I jumped when something popped out. It transformed into a water bottle. “Here,” he gave it to me. “I couldn’t transport the water from Zirc’s wells, but I had the building’s owner had this filtered several times throughout the night.”

I sniffed.

“What the hell did you make her cry?” Coone grumbled. When he tried to take away the bottle from me, I scooted near Roqs.

“Thank you,” I said to Roqs and pecked his lips. His lips curved at the corner. He was so thoughtful. Maybe an alpha was like that. While Coone would defend me to death, same as Roqs I believe, Roqs had this uncanny ability to anticipate my needs. Maybe he was used to it because he was, after all, the alpha of his tribe.

I uncapped the glass bottle which was surprisingly light. I expected it to be heavy.

“Mmmm,” I moaned when the first drop of water slid in my mouth. Better than coffee. I had to drink the salty water last night when they woke me up to eat dinner, then I passed out again to sleep.

“Careful,” Roqs said when I spilled some water. Some spilled on his hand and I licked the water off from his hand. He stilled while I moaned in pleasure tasting fresh pure water for who knew how long since I was kidnapped? I popped his thumb in my mouth and sucked it like ice.

“The fuck? You guys starting without me?” one of the twins growled from somewhere.

I released Roqs thumb and leaned my back to Coone’s chest so I could look at the one who just spoke. It was Sim. I noticed Nim sat in the opposite sofa, legs spread wide with a shit eating grin on his face. His twin, Sim, stood glaring at me, even though, when I glanced down, he was sporting a hard on. His hands fisted at the side. I remembered what their cocks looked like last night. Maybe I was just too tired. They were seriously hung.

“Sit down,” Nim drawled. He looked very amused. Contrary to their grumpy attitude yesterday. I guess men were the same everywhere. Sex mellowed them out.

I also remembered Sim was more approachable than Nim. What crawled up his ass this morning?

While he sat, I finished my drink.

“You finished all of it?” Roqs sounded exasperated. I wondered if the Silver Tribe was a desert land. He and Zirc were always too conscious of wasting water.

“Delicious,” and I licked my lips with my tongue. Several someones groaned. When I tried to lick the moisture from the water bottle, it does taste sweet, Roqs grabbed my wrist and plucked the water bottle from my hand. “Hey.”

“Stop it unless you want to end up naked on this ship,” Roqs glared at me, his eyes slit.

“What is everybody’s problem this morning?” I complained.

Someone cleared their throat in the direction where we came from earlier.

“Esteemed guests,” he bowed slightly to us. “Kru’h.” He bowed lower to the twins. He looked older, but not like the old man I saw yesterday. He belonged to the Purple Tribe but with a much lighter shade of purple. He wore pants underneath his fancy robe. It was dyed in different shades of purple. The twins wore casual clothing similar to ours. Just long-sleeved tunic and pants. Of course, Roqs wore his regular leather ensemble, minus the hat.
