It takes a second for me to grasp the words that just came out of my mouth. I was lost in Lucy, swept away on a tide of lust and need that I’ve never felt in my life… that I never even knew was possible. I’ve never felt arousal like that, never been so hard, so full of desire that I wouldn’t have cared if the world was ending right outside our door. Nothing could have compared to my need to be inside of her. It was the most powerful thing I’ve ever felt.

And that’s why I know what I said must be true.

She’s my Irisa.

This woman is my mate.

A part of me can’t believe it took me so long to realize it. So many things make sense now—why I’ve felt compelled to protect her and keep an eye on her as far back as our time on Wauru, why I didn’t just let her walk away in the alley the night of the festival, and why I felt lost and out of place when I went back to my pod, as if I belonged somewhere else. Why, even though I was furious, I didn’t just put her on the first transport back to Kalix on a port along the way.

And why tonight, when I saw her dance, something was unleashed inside of me.

I couldn’t see it before now because of how tightly controlled I’ve kept my emotions all these years. I’ve cultivated an iron self-control that has served me well and kept my bodily desires from bothering me too much.

But something shifted when I saw her on that stage, when her clothes slid from her body and all of her was laid bare to me—not just her perfect, beautiful flesh, but her soul too. The part of her that makes her who she is. The strong, intelligent, graceful, brave woman that I’ve gotten to know on the voyage here.

I felt certainty in that moment, and a kind of desire that I’ve never known. In the moment, I mistook it for physical lust, for years of deprivation boiling over in a single flashpoint that I couldn’t struggle against any longer.

But it was more than that.

Everything that happened after I swept her off that stage, every kiss and touch and caress, the need to give her pleasure before taking my own, even the deep-seated need to make certain this was what she wanted before claiming her—all of it was my soul’s way of telling me what I’ve found, and how very serious the next moments would be for both me and her.

“What the hell did you just say?” Lucy asks, her body pressed back against the pillows so tightly that it hurts me to see it.

She wants to be as far away from me now as she wanted to be close to me a moment ago. And although my body is pulsing with need, every part of me screaming for me to surge forward and claim her, to sink myself into her and take her body until I fill her with my seed, I hold myself back.
