CHAPTER

TWENTY-THREE

DRAZ

Rock crunches under my feet as I leave the cave, where my Ni-Kee sleeps peacefully. A troblek rumbles in the distance, and a flock of scarlet and indigo birds take wing, disturbed by the noise. All around me, the jungle stirs to life, full of promise for a new day.

My tail lashes behind me.

I should be pleased, thrilled, even, with finally convincing Ni-Kee to accept me as her mate. Even now, the memory of her body clenching around my cock makes me hard, my lust for her hardly slaked.

No. If anything, my desire for her has grown exponentially.

I gnash my teeth, continuing off, in search of more of the sweet berries Ni-Kee seemed to like so much.

What have I done wrong?

I brought her great pleasure, that much is certain. I never knew a female could taste so sweet, could feel so good beneath me. I thought she wanted to be with me, that she wanted to bear my young.

Instead, her eyes went wide, her face pale with terror, and she told me no.

Does she not want me? Have I done something to make her think I will not be a good mate or father to our children?

My heart aches, and I rub a fist against my chest, pausing from the pain of it, before setting off again. I know I am not human, not even close to it, but after the way they treated her, throwing her at me and my men without so much as asking her what she wanted…

Aren’t I better than her human options?

A small hand tugs at my pant leg, and when I look down, the zoleh chitters at me, its bright eyes blinking one after the other.

“Did I do something wrong?” I ask it. The little zoleh just stares though, no answer forthcoming. The humans were deceitful to their own warriors. They lied to my mate and her crew about their mission. It is so at odds with our Suevan ways. We can lie, but it is considered a grave crime. Our language is sacred, and built for telling truths, for speaking from our souls.

The humans seem to feel no such compunction towards honesty.

It seems a human trait, to lie and deceive where it suits them.

The thought brings me up short, and the ache in my chest grows uncomfortably tight.

Could it be that my Ni-Kee only had sex to appease me? To ensure that I take her safely to her crew at Edrobaz, and to try to make sure that her species gets the tech they so fervently desire?

It hurts. The mere possibility that she only had sex with me because I wanted it, and not because she wanted to be mine… My throat constricts, and I suck in a breath.

I nearly stumble across the berry bush, so preoccupied with the thought, and I manage to squash half. The rest go into the bag I brought along.

Is it possible that she could have falsified her desire? I scented it on her, but every day, I realize I know less and less about the humans and their culture.
