Chapter Nine

“Okay. Now let’s go face whoever is in the other

room.” Tammy smiled at Valiant after he lowered her

back to her feet.

“It’s Slade and Trisha. They brought Brass with

them.”

Valiant smiled when he stepped back from her. He

held out his hand that Tammy accepted, opened the

door, and they walked together down the hallway.

Trisha, Slade, and a New Species man waited inside the

living room, sitting on the couch and on a chair. The

men looked amused. Trisha just smiled.

“What do you want?” Valiant glared at Slade. “We

had to get dressed. We would be taking a nap right now

if it weren’t for you being here.”

A grin spread across Slade’s face and his blue eyes

sparkled. “Trisha wanted to talk to both of you. She was

tired last night and says she didn’t think about it. She

demanded we come over here right now.”

Valiant glanced at the other man. “Hello, Brass. What

are you doing here?”

“I’m with them.” He studied Tammy and winked.

A growl tore from Valiant as he instantly moved,

released her hand and took a threatening step toward the

other New Species. He’d put his body in front of

Tammy’s, blocking Brass from seeing her.

“Do not look at her and do not flirt.” Valiant snarled

louder. “Mine!”

“Wow, and I thought you were possessive,” Trisha

muttered. She stood. “Calm down, Valiant. Brass didn’t

mean anything by that facial twitch. He winks at

everyone. Even men. I need to have a private discussion

with you two.” She paused. “Inside the bedroom.”

“But―” Slade protested.

Trisha spun to face him. “Enough. I know you guys

wouldn’t give a damn what is discussed in front of you

about any topic under the sun but she’s a woman. I

wouldn’t want to have this conversation in front of two

men I don’t know. Now please sit back down and work

more on that patience—or lack of—issue you have.” She

turned back around to meet Tammy’s shocked stare.

“You, me, and Valiant need to have a talk.”

“Just tell us whatever you need to say.” Valiant

crossed his arms over his chest. “The faster its out, the

faster you leave, and I can take Tammy to bed for a

nap.”

Tammy sighed, stepping from behind him. “He does

that arm-crossing thing a lot. Valiant has spoken. Subject

over.” She glanced up at his face and grinned at his

threatening expression, which he seemed to use to

intimidate others. “Do what he says or get glared at.”

Trisha laughed. “They all do that. It’s a New Species

thing. It’s adorable, isn’t it?”

Tammy wasn’t sure she’d go that far but as she

glanced up at the scowl on Valiant’s face as he regarded

the doctor, she refrained from laughing. Her focus

returned to Trisha.

Trisha edged around Valiant and took Tammy’s arm.

“Trust me. This is a talk we should have in private.”

“Let’s go into the bedroom. He’ll follow.” Tammy led

the way.

Trisha took a seat on a chair and her hands gently

massaged her extended belly. Tammy grabbed the

comforter off the floor and tossed it over the messed-up

sheets. She tried not to feel embarrassed about the state

of the bed. It was obvious that they’d had sex on it

recently. Valiant stood by the door doing his New Species

thing. She smiled as she looked away from him, sitting

on the edge of the bed near Trisha.
