Chapter 13

Thras

Thras lay awake in his opulent bed. It wasn't as comfortable as the one he slept on at the palace. However, it was still better than what most people had in their homes. He was used to that kind of comfort and had only just recently been learning to appreciate his good fortune in life. Being king was an exceptionally good life, but what was the use if he couldn't even have his fated mate by his side?

He tossed and turned in his big, empty bed. There was no one to put his arm around and hold close to his muscular chest. Now, he was certain he'd lost any chance at winning Chera's heart. All because he tried to use a display of force for something as delicate as a matter of the heart. His diplomacy skills were apparently just as lacking as his ways with the opposite sex.

He got out of bed and started to busy himself by preparing for their upcoming space flight. It was no use. He couldn't bring himself to concentrate on anything but Chera.

Someone came to his door and he beckoned them to enter. Could it be her? He would have otherwise turned whoever it was away at this hour, but the chance of seeing her could not be lost.

"Chera?" he said with carefully guarded joy. He didn't want her to see how much he still wanted her. Defeating his bloated sense of ego was hard to do. Perhaps if he could spend more time with someone as humble and compassionate as Chera...

But that was never to be. "What is it?" he asked, standing aside so she could enter his room. He closed the door behind her and locked it without letting her see. Just in case anything were to happen, there would be no chance for someone to burst in and interrupt them.

"Yes," she said.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Yes," she reiterated. "Yes, I'll be your mate. If you rescue my friends. That means you must do it, or the deal's off. Do you understand?"

She was giving him the orders now, which was very strange. Thras would have been lying if he said he wasn't strangely attracted to her for it. He didn't want a doormat for a mate.

He looked at her with mouth agape, not sure what he should say or do. "Alright," he finally said.

"Are you really alright though? You seem like you want to say something. Have you already changed your mind again?" she asked.

"Me change my mind? I have only wanted you since we first met. Hmm, I think we have been misunderstanding each other all along. Now that I've had more time to reflect on my emotions, and deal with the fact that I am capable of being so fragile, I think we should talk."

She was clearly taken aback by this display of emotional maturity. "You seem strange," she said. "Not in a bad way, mind you. Just different. Okay then, let's have a talk." They sat on the edge of his bed again.
