Chapter Three

Angie finished the tray of assorted fruit, cheeses, and veggies that Prince Joseph had ordered her, and then she stared at the door hoping he would return. She missed him. She actually missed him.

She smiled and touched her face, reveling in the memory of how tenderly he’d brushed his thumbs over her cheeks. Before he’d visited her quarters she couldn’t stop thinking about Greg and how terrified she was of the Reestrians on the Raavika, but now she couldn’t stop thinking about a certain Reestrian himself. Prince Joseph.

She recalled Kira speaking highly of him, saying he was Alex’s oldest brother and that he’d helped them after their arrival on Reestria, but she hadn’t known about his mate dying until now.

His offer to move her to the safety of the first Human-Reestrian settlement on Earth was sweet. She had tried to protest and claim she hadn’t decided whether to accept his offer yet, but he’d left her quarters before she could finish her sentence. Leaving Florida for the safety of the settlement in Oregon where Greg couldn’t reach her sounded too good to be true. Why hadn’t she accepted Prince Joseph’s offer immediately?

She’d seen news stories about the upcoming settlements where Reestrians bonded with humans could legally raise families on Earth. Several Human-Reestrian pairs lived on Reestria now, but those who wished to remain on Earth had to live in the settlements, at least for now. Not all humans were happy about aliens living on Earth, many calling them demons or claiming they would destroy the planet one day.

From what Angie could tell, the Reestrians weren’t so bad. They were just big and scary looking. Prince Joseph was well over seven feet tall, and she’d heard whisperings of some of the more primitive Reestrian clans having males over eight feet tall. Of course she’d read that in a tabloid and hadn’t yet asked Kira if it was true.

Kira seemed happy with Price Alex. Angie had been able to speak with her friend often, sometimes daily. Of course Kira had known Alex her whole life, having grown up believing he was her stepbrother, while Angie couldn’t imagine mating with a Reestrian she’d just met. Like Prince Joseph.

Except that was a lie. More than once since she’d met him, she’d tried undressing him with her mind. She suspected her imagination hadn’t done him justice though, and beneath his perfectly tailored royal uniform was the body of an exquisitely sculpted warrior. She pictured him running across a muddy field without his shirt, carrying a sword and a shield as he raced toward his enemy. Then, after slaying every last one of his foes, he would come home to her and sweep her up in his arms and make tender love to her in front of a crackling fire.

She rushed to the table and gulped down the glass of water still on the tray. Dear Lord, what had gotten into her? What had happened to her plans to avoid all men, including Reestrian males?

But there was something sweet about Prince Joseph.
