Kordan pulled his shirt over his head and dropped it carelessly onto the floor. For days Lory had been acting very strangely. She was always distracted and seemed to be really unhappy. He had no idea what he should do. He was nice to her and made the effort to give her the space she needed, as he had promised. Yet she was still not relaxing. Quite the opposite: it seemed to be getting worse and worse. Perhaps he was being selfish trying to keep her here. Perhaps he should let her go. He could fly with her to Moron2. There was a certain astronomer there who might help them to locate Lory’s home planet. The thought of losing Lory pained him beyond words but it hurt more seeing her suffer. He sighed.

“Are you OK?” he heard Lory ask and he raised his head to look at her.

He sighed again. She was so beautiful. Even in this ridiculous outfit. She simply refused to wear dresses, preferring instead his trousers and shirts. Even today for the party she could not be persuaded to put a dress on.

Her expectant look reminded him that she had asked him something.

“What? What did you say?”

“I asked whether you were OK,” replied Lory with a questioning look.

“Yes, … yes, I’m fine. Did you like the party?”

“Hmm. Yes, it was nice. The food was superb and the music was good, too.”

Kordan slipped out of his trousers and went into the bathroom. He was aware that Lory was watching him. He still had the feeling that she felt more for him than she admitted. When she lay next to him in bed in the evenings he could smell her arousal and it nearly drove him insane not being able to touch her.

Swearing, he slipped under the shower that consisted of a rock face and a waterfall that roared down at his command.

“Water. Cold. Highest level.”

Immediately a torrent of ice-cold water poured over him. He tensed up briefly but did not move away. He really did need to be cooled down. Once he was sure that he had cooled down enough he gave the order: “Water off. Fan. Middle level.”

The water stopped flowing and two arms with fans came out of the wall. The warm current of air dried him quickly and effectively.

“Fan stop.”

Once back in the bedroom he got straight into bed. He watched Lory disappear into the bathroom. The thought of her standing naked under the shower made him hard. If only she were not so stubborn.

When she came out of the bathroom she was, as usual, wearing one of his shirts that came down to her knees. Yet she still looked irresistibly sexy to him. His cheetah growled and egged him on to forget his stupid promise and take her. She was his mate. He had a right to her and, after all, she wanted him, too. But he had promised not to touch her. He was an idiot. He would lose her just because he behaved like a fool.
