By Monday, nearly a week had passed, and I still hadn’t found the right way to tell her. She hadn’t made it easy, either. In fact, I was pretty sure Brittany was avoiding me. She stayed out of sight when I was home unless it was absolutely necessary to interact, and then she wouldn’t quite meet my eyes.

I wanted to ask her what was going on, if I’d scared her away with that kiss. She’d responded as if she wanted it too, but I wasn’t going to pretend I understood the emotions of women, much less a human woman.

I hadn’t broached the subject when we’d crossed paths. Perhaps she just needed some time to wrap her head around it and figure out what she felt, so I decided to leave her alone for now, even though my instincts screamed for me to take her in my arms and claim her as my own. As much as it pained me, if she needed time and space, I’d give it to her.

So I busied myself with work, scheduling meetings about the improvements I had in mind for the IEP.

First up was a meeting with Rahl the Nourisher who was still on the planet, but whom I’d only seen in passing. It was expected of me as the future Hollander leader to make diplomatic relations with the leaders of other planets, and I was pretty good at it. I was actually looking forward to meeting Rahl and was curious about what it was like to rule a planet at such a young age—he wasn’t even thirty yet.

We had lunch in the same courtyard where Brittany had dined with Mother and Yivonne not so long ago, and I tried hard to focus on my conversation with Rahl and not remember how sexy and gorgeous Brittany had looked in her dress that day.

“Good day, Nourisher,” I said, rising from the table and bowing deeply as he approached. It was the custom to greet other leaders with their formal titles, but Rahl looked distinctly uncomfortable with it.

“Please,” he said. “Call me Rahl.” His voice was clear and smooth and reminded me of the running water of a calm stream. He bowed in return, then gave me a friendly smile.

I smiled back, already liking the guy. It was clear he wasn’t big on formality and pretention, something I definitely respected.

“Then you must call me Niall,” I replied, gesturing for him to have a seat. “It’s wonderful to finally meet you. Tell me, what do you think of Hollander so far?”

He joined me at the table, glancing around at our surroundings. “I must admit, it’s quite beautiful. One of the loveliest planets I’ve visited by far. However, I must say that my home planet holds my heart, and Hollander can’t quite compare.”

I chuckled. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

While I personally thought Hollander to be the most beautiful of all the planets, I’d been to Macros, and found it to be high on my list of the best places I’d seen.
