Page 20 of Baiting the Alien

I stare at the plate with what’s left of the food. I don’t think he cared enough to make me paella because I’m a human. He kidnapped me from the beach. Maybe he also bought food on his way out.

Well... Given how he acts like he is the king or something, maybe he robbed the restaurant.

There is a warmth in my stomach. If that’s the mate bond he mentioned more than once, maybe I’m feeling it. It is different from how it felt when I dated before. But...

I don’t want to be a mate to a crazy alien...

Maybe I shouldn’t let him fuck me. That probably let him think that I’ve signed up to let him do whatever to me.

I wanted that and I enjoyed sex with him. But it is different when he wants me to be his mate instead of just a hook-up. I thought... I thought this was simply a detour during my vacation, but...

I stare at the wall ahead, rubbing my eyes to clear my vision. Who can I trust and who will help me? I don’t even know where I am. How do I get home?

Iechon

I take a deep breath when my heart is still hammering in my chest. It takes so much for me to leave her inside. When I caught her sneaking around in the corridor, she said she missed me. I thought that meant she knew what was happening.

Maybe she didn’t.

Maybe she was flirting with me because she remembered that I had warned her to stay in my room.

Hmm...

“Captain.”

I almost bump into Onner when I turn the corner. Why is he here again? Today, he has been annoying and has been following me around. I clear my throat. “What?”

“I was looking for you.”

I scowl. “Is something wrong? The portal isn’t showing up as predicted?”

He shakes his head. “That’s fine. We are heading there now. I’m checking to see whether there is anything I can help you with.”

I lift my brows. “Help me? About what?”

He looks down the corridor to where Zoe is. “Is everything fine? She doesn’t seem to be doing well here.”

I grunt. “Everything is fine. She is confused, but she won’t stay confused for long.”

“Captain, how much do you know about human females?”

“What’s to know about them?”

He shrugs. “I bet you don’t know a lot about them. You aren’t a fan of getting to know other beings.”

Yes, I don’t care how others think about me, and I don’t care about what they are up to. Onner is the one managing business relationships and I’m the one slashing through everything that dares to stand in our way.

Onner continues, “Humans are very different from us. So, if you want her to be happy and want to trigger the rest of the mate bond, you have to make her want to be your mate.”

“I know that. I’m going to make her accept that.”

Onner shakes his head again. “That’s not what I mean. You can’t punch her or tie her up to make that happen.”

I roll my eyes. “Really? Are you trying to mess with me? She is just in denial of our bond.”

“Humans don’t feel it the same way as us. You have to win her over. The mate bond acts differently to them. Most human couples don’t even have the mate bond.”

I grab his throat. “Do you think that you are an expert and you get to tell me how to treat my mate?”
